BACKGIVOUMD WORMATIOW. EUD is responsible for expanding its electric system to serve new customers/development. This includes system improvements in distribution (12kV (kilovolts) and below), transmission (60kV and above) and substation facilities. Presently, EUD's electric system includes four (4) distribution substations. These substations are believed to be sufficient for existing and in -fill development within the city. In the short run, new developments outside existing city boundaries can also be served from existing substations. In the longer run, however, new substations may be required in the wesUsouthwest and/or south/southwest areas of the community to reliably accommodate expanded growth beyond current city boundaries. There is a tread by electric utilities to make new development responsible for much, if not all, of the cost to expandteedend electric facilities to serve them. Today, EUD's cost to construct new substations and transmission lines is made without any cost contributions by new custom ers/developers. A typical EUD substation would have two 18.75MVA (megavolt amps) power transformers with four (4) 12kV feeders and circuit breakers connected to each individual power transformer. The assumed length of the 6OkV transmission lines interconnecting the substation to the existing electrical network is five miles. The estimated cost of constructing a new substation and associated transmission is $7,864,500 (in 2006 dollars). Based on the effective capacity of a standard substation (48MVA), the corresponding cost per kVA (kilovolt amps) is computed to be $163.84. Staff is recommending the establishment of a Substation and Transmission System Charge to be to be assessed as a development impact fee upon future EUD electric developments outside existing City boundaries (as of August 1, 2006). The initial amount of such charge would be $163.84 per kVA of computed new electrical load. FISCAL 1WACT: This action will provide funds for future capital expenditures associated with new substation1transmission facilities.
