CITY COUNCIL ADOPTING A NEW FEE SCHEDULE FOR SEWER SERVICE AND CONNECTION FEES, OPERATIVE OCTOBER 1, 1988. PREPARE;) BY City Manager RECORMENDED ACTION: That the City Council introduce Grdinance No. 1428, "An Ordinance of the Lodi City Council Adopting a New Fee Schedule for Sewer Service and Connection Fees, Operative October 1, 1988." BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City Council adopted Resolution No. 86-15? at its regular meeting of October 1, 1986 setting in place a schedule of annual sewer service charges and connection fees adjustments until such time as the White Slough Water Pollution Control Plant expansion project is completed, or until that resolution 4s superseded. The adjustments are 15% effective each year on October 1. This action will adjust the monthly sewer service charge for a two-bedroom house from 54.68 to $5.38, and the connection fee from $1,380 to $1,587. As the City Council is aware, the funding for this major project is now in place and construction will start next summer. The plant is schedule to come on line in early 1991. A portion of the sewer service charges and all of the connection fees have been dedicated to assist in the funding of this and future plant expansion projects. The City Council'; decision to allocate $2,000,000 from this plant expansion fund to the project was instrumental in the City being able to secure a AAA bond rating which will save the City approximately $1.2 million over the life of the issue. The continued assessment of these charges and fees will materially aid in the funding of the next plant expansion in the next 10-12 years or whenever necessary as dictated by growth, a most indefinite indicator at this time.
