CITY OF LODI COUNCIL COMMUNICATION
AGENDA TITLE: Public Hearing to Consider Increasing Water Rates Effective June 1, 1995
MEETING DATE: April 19, 1995
PREPARED BY: Public Works Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: That the City Council conduct a public hearing on the recommended water rate
increases described in the staff report and take the appropriate action.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The condition and needs of the City's water system have been reported to the
City Council and the public in a series of Council Shirtsleeve Sessions, written
reports and public notifications over the course of the past year and a half.
The November 1993 "Water Utility Status Report" contained most of this
information. A one-page summary of the report was included in the "Annual Water Quality Report for 1993*
mailed to all water customers in April 1994. A report on water rates and the "Water Storage Tank Study"was
presented to the Council at a Shirtsleeve Session in May 1994. Additional Shirtsleeve and regular Council
Meeting presentations were made in March 1995.
Very briefly, the bottom line is that the City needs to put more money into its water utility. Old pipes in the City's
water system should be replaced on a regular basis. Regular replacement of other major parts — wells,
generators, valves and fire hydrants -- are also needed and should be undertaken on something other than an
emergency basis. In addition, financial resources of the utility have been drained in complying with Federal and
State drinking water standards for DBCP, a pesticide found in minute quantities in the groundwater. To meet
customers'water demands in peak summer periods, new treatment and storage facilities will be needed. And,
while a State loan has been secured for these improvements, additional revenue is needed to repay the loan.
The issue of the water utility's rate structure has been discussed. There are problems With the City's metered
water rate, which affects most industrial and commercial customers. The major problem is that an unreasonable
amount of water is included in the minimum charge. In addition, the relationships between metered rates and flat
rates, and the minimum meter charges, have not been evaluated in over 20 years. Finally, State law now requires
installation of water meters on all new services. Thus, we will eventually have some metered residences and
some on flat rates. In the long run, these rate equity problems will need to be solved by installing water meters for
all customers.
The amount of additional revenue needed is complicated by the City's 4in-lieu' tax on utility revenue. Per
adopted Council policy, 20% of the water utility's revenue is transferred to General Fund in -lieu of taxes that might
be paid by a private utility. While the logic and details of the amount of this tax could be debated endlessly, it has
been a long-standing practice going back to the incorporation of the City when the citizens acquired the privately -
owned water and electric utilities.

While surveys show Lodi's water rates are at least 43% below those of other cities, it is not recommended to raise
rates 74% all at once. Industries have requested rate increases be stepped over some number of years and that
they be planned in advance. Aside from customer acceptance, 4 would be impractical from staffing and
operational considerations to try and increase expenditures that much at one time. The last water rate increase
was made in 1991. It was an across-the-board increase of 5%.
Staff has recommended that a rate increase be adopted effective June 1, 1995, and that a rate analysis be done to
plan subsequent rate increases starting in 1996. The recommended rate increase is 22% on the flat rates, 10% on
the minimum metered rates, 5% on the metered charge for water, and eliminate the water allowance included in
the minimum metered rate. This recommendation is based on the present in -lieu tax policy and will provide
sufficient revenue to handle DBCP compliance in the short term and some funds for system replacement.
The flat -rate increase translates to $2.33 per month on a three-bedroom home and $3.04 per month on the
average non-residential account. The increase for the metered customers varies considerably. Twenty percent of
the 883 non-residential metered customers will have increases of less than $3.04 per month. The average
increase is 31%, or$14.10 per month. Most of the increase is due to the elimination of the water allowance in the
minimum charge. To ease this increase, staff recommends that, upon request of the customer, the City install a
smaller meter at no charge, thereby reducing the minimum charge. Another option is to reduce the allowance
rather than eliminate it completely.
The recommended rate increase and the revenue produced is summarized in Exhibit A, Option 1. and detailed in
Exhibits B and C. Suggestions have been made that all or part of the rate increase revenue not be subject to the
in -lieu tax. One suggestion was that the portion pertaining to DBCP compliance not be subject to the tax. This is
shown as Option 2 in Exhibit A. Another suggestion was that none of the increased revenue be subject to the tax
which is shown as Option 3 in Exhibit A. In all cases, the net new revenue to the Water Fund is the same as that
of the recommended increase.
The City Code (LMC § 13.08.010) provides for water rates to beset by resolution. The attached resolution is
written with the appropriate "blanks* to be filled in depending on whic"ption is selected by the Council.
