jSUBJECT
Revision of 2025/2026 Appropriation Limit
I RECOMMENDATION
The Acting Finance Director recommends that the Council:
1. Adopt a Revision to the Resolution establishing the Gann appropriations limit for the fiscal year 2025-2026 and find that the adopted appropriations are within the limit.
I FISCAL IMPACT
There is no Fiscal Impact for the revision of the Gann appropriation limits. Adoption of the Gann appropriations limit ensures that the city complies with Propositions 4 and 111, which were passed by the voters in 1979 and 1990, respectively, and which place limits on the amount of tax revenue that can be spent by local governments.
ITEM 6.6 PAGE1 7/15/2025
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
During our 2024/2025 Interim Annual Financial Audit, it was brought to our attention by our audit firm, The Pun Group, that the Gann appropriation limits adopted by resolution 25-29, respectively, had typographical errors in the formula resulting in a $36,716 difference to the limit for 2025/2026. As a result, we are being asked to make these corrections to comply with the Department of Finance when establishing appropriation limits. It is important to point out that this revision has zero fiscal impact.

Public Hearing - Wastewater User Charges
I RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works Director recommends that the City Council:
1. Conduct a Public Hearing:
2. Adopt a resolution increasing wastewater consumption charges by 65% effective August 1, 2025, and again by 65% effective July 1, 2026, then by 13% effective July 1, 2027, through January 1, 2029.
I FISCAL IMPACT
Increased rate-payer revenue will fund the cost of service and maintain a reserve fund for emergencies and unforeseen circumstances.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In 1998, the City conducted its first sewer rate study to assess the sewer user fee rates after operating losses in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund. Since 1998, the City has proposed sewer user rate increases of a modest nature by increasing monthly flat rate charges and additional charges based on each 100 cu. foot of water consumed. These flat-rate charges range between 2% and 3% per cycle. In 2014, this ideology shifted from 3% to 5% for 2014 and 2015. Over the last 27 years, the City has only proposed a rate increase five times.
ITEM 7.0 PAGE1 7/15/2025
Consumers of the City's sewer service are charged user fees to maintain our sewer system.
Each year, staff analyze the revenues and expenditures in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund, comparing the service's costs with user revenues. To keep up with inflationary costs, the City typically imposes small increases in user fees each year. The last rate increase occurred in 2014, with a 5% increase for both 2014 and 2015.
For fiscal year 2015, the wastewater enterprise fund began with a reserve balance of $7,203,170. However, in 2015, there was a decrease in reserves of $1,123,273. In fiscal year 2020, there was a decrease in reserves of $542,991. Similarly, in fiscal year 2022, there was a decrease in reserves of $170,071. In the fiscal year 2024, there was a decrease in reserves of $2,471,357. Expenditures continue to outpace revenues in the wastewater fund, resulting in an approximate reserve balance of $4,393,760 at the beginning of fiscal year 2024/2025.
Much like the General Fund reserve, having a healthy reserve in the wastewater enterprise fund is essential. Traditionally, the reserve is used for planned and unexpected sewer infrastructure repairs. The sewer system comprises a wastewater treatment plant, over 50 miles of sewer lines, and five municipal lift stations. An unexpected repair on any of the many sewer system components could quickly deplete the reserves in the wastewater enterprise fund.
The City Wastewater Department faces a significant challenge in repamng aging infrastructure that frequently breaks down, leading to sewer backups and failures.
However, constantly responding to such issues leaves little time to focus on preventing future occurrences that would extend the lifespan of the sewer system.
There are several key reasons why operating costs have quickly outpaced the rate increases implemented in the past. Utility rates, unfunded state mandates, and aging sewer lines are all significant factors that impact rates.
In the past, the City has upgraded the pumps and motors to make them as energy-efficient as possible, but increased energy costs have offset the decrease in energy usage. The wastewater treatment plant has not received significant upgrades since 1989. Additionally, the majority of the needed projects identified in the 2007 Master Sewer Plan for the collection system have not been completed.
Every year, new mandates are introduced for increased testing and reporting. The number of compounds tested for and the frequency of tests have continued to rise. Moving forward, the previously stated costs are expected to continue increasing.
As stated, small rate increases have occurred regularly to keep up with rising costs. These rate increases were generally determined by City staff reviewing revenue versus expenditures and making an educated estimate of future expenses.
The City of Anderson strives to maintain its affordable sewer rates. Our sewer service continues to be a tremendous value for our residents. A rate increase is needed to maintain a sustainable sewer utility for our citizens.
ITEM 7.0 PAGE2 7/15/2025
Lechowicz + Tseng Municipal Consultants reported their draft findings and report to the City Council as a regular agenda item on February 18, 2025. No comments from the public were received.
Before the regular meeting on May 20, 2025, the Public Hearing for the rate increase was removed from the agenda due to a discrepancy in how the base rates were calculated. City staff met with Lechowicz + Tseng to discuss how to resolve this issue. Protests received during the original Proposition 218 period were recorded, totaling 189 written protests.
At the May 20, 2025, meeting, numerous citizens expressed their concerns about how the rate increase would negatively impact them. With the significant year-one increase and the base rate adjustment, staff have revised the proposed rate increase structure for submission to the City Council. Staff proposed phasing the base rate calculation adjustment over 5 years to offset the initial customer increase. The Proposition 218 mailer included a sample bill for a 2,500-square-foot professional office space and a sample residential bill.
Additionally, staff proposed holding an informational public meeting on June 26, 2025, at 5:30 p.m. at Scout Hall in Anderson River Park. Following the informational meeting for those interested, a tour of the Anderson wastewater treatment plant was scheduled to take place.
Staff separately notified commercial customers who would see an initial increase in their bill by $10,000 or a 150% increase. Staff were able to identify 34 customers that met those criteria. Staff attempted to set up meetings with each affected customer to explain the proposed changes to the base rate structure but were only able to meet with four customers. Additionally, staff did send a separate mailer to all commercial customers that will see changes to their base rate structure.
Staff held a public information meeting on June 26, 2025, at 5:30 pm at Scout Hall in Anderson River Park. Four members of the public were present, but only three opted to participate in a tour of the Anderson wastewater treatment plant.
Protests received during the Proposition 218 period were recorded, totaling 70 written protests. Totaling the written protests yields 259 written protests received during both periods.
In November 1996, California voters approved Proposition 2018, the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," which added Articles 13C and 13D to the California Constitution. Water rates/revenues must:
• Be based on the reasonable cost of services.
• Costs must be proportionally recovered based on how customers take services. • Only be used for the wastewater utility.
The procedural requirements to raise the wastewater rates include:
• Conducting a rate study.
• Mailing notices to property owners (A protest form will be included in the mailer). • Tally the number of protests.
• Hold a public hearing a minimum of 45 days after the notices are mailed.
ITEM 7.0 PAGE3 7/15/2025
• Council vote. Rates cannot be adopted if more than 50% of ratepayers submit written protests.
The proposal before the council is to increase water rates by approximately 65% for 2025, followed by a 65% increase for 2026, and then a 13% increase over the next three years. • The first increase is proposed to be effective on August 1, 2025. • Future rate increases are proposed to be effective on July 1 of each year through July 1, 2029.
Should the Council agree with this recommendation, the resolution outlined in Attachment 3 will be implemented.

NOTICE OF RESCHEDULED PUBLIC HEARING TO
INCREASE SEWER SERVICE FEES
Tuesday, July 15, 2025, at 5:30 pm
May 30, 2025
Dear Sewer Customer:
In April 2025, the City of Anderson mailed a notice to inform customers that the City is considering the adoption of increases in the City's sewer service fees. The previous proposed sewer service fees included a 160.0% increase in the first year. After thoroughly reviewing the bill impacts to ratepayers, the City proposes to phase in sewer rate increases over the next five years to minimize the initial impact to customers while funding essential operating and capital costs for the Sewer Fund.
The purpose of this notice is to inform you of the proposed revised sewer service fees. Accordingly, the City has rescheduled the Public Hearing to Tuesday, July 15, 2025, at 5:30 pm to consider the proposed rate adjustments.
Why is a sewer rate increase needed?
Since 1998, the City has only increased sewer rates five times. The last sewer rate increase was ten years ago in 2015. The City's current rates are among the lowest in the region. The City is committed to providing our customers the highest quality sewer utility services at the lowest possible rates. To meet this commitment, the City monitors the cost of providing sewer services, including the infrastructure needs, programs, and operations and maintenance costs of the City's sewer services. We strive to look for ways to reduce costs, thus keeping rates for our users as low as possible.
As an enterprise fund, the Sewer Fund is separate and distinct from the City's General Fund and relies entirely on rate revenues to fund its operations. Sewer operations are not funded by property tax or any other tax revenue. The charges for sewer service appear on your property tax bill because that is the least costly way for the City to collect the charges. However, the sewer service fees are not a tax.
The City can no longer provide you with the quality service you have come to expect at our current rates.
The Sewer Fund will continue to operate in a deficit if rates are not adjusted because our costs to provide you with sewer service have continued to increase. In addition to rising increases in utility and regulatory costs to meet State compliance mandates, the City needs to replace significant portions of the City's aging sewer treatment, collection, and disposal facilities, which have not been updated in over 40 years.
Over the next five years, the City proposes to spend $11.0 million in capital projects to rehabilitate equipment and other sewer system infrastructure.
The City engaged an independent rate consultant who reviewed the sewer utility's cost of providing service to determine appropriate adjustments to the sewer service fees. The proposed rates are based on the reasonable cost of providing service and do not exceed the proportional cost of the service attributable to each parcel. Sewer service fee increases are necessary to: (a) enable the City to recover current and projected costs of operations and maintenance; (b) pay existing debt service obligations; (c) fund capital infrastructure maintenance needed to repair the aging sewer system; (d) maintain operational and financial stability; and ( e) avoid further depletion of reserves.
Sewer Rate Structure
Sewer service fees are billed annually on the property tax roll. The City's sewer service fees are comprised of two components: ( l) a fixed monthly Base Charge; and (2) a Flow Charge imposed for each one hundred cubic foot of water consumed during the winter months (October through March). One hundred cubic feet (CCF) of water is equivalent to 748 gallons.
The Flow Charge is determined on the basis of each property owner's water use during the winter months because individual sanitary sewer flows are not metered; water consumption during the winter best reflects actual flows into the sanitary sewer system when outdoor water use is least likely to occur.
Each customer class is assigned a Sewer Household Equivalent Factor (HE) for the Base Charge. One HE is defined as the wastewater flow and pollutant loading of the average single family dwelling unit in the City. The assignment of HEs to each customer class represents each customer's proportional impact on the overall sewer system.
The current number of HEs assigned to each customer was established by the last sewer rate study in 2002. For this study, the proposed sewer rates and number ofHE's have been updated to reflect industrystandard estimates of wastewater volume and pollutant loadings. As a result, the number of HEs for some customers are proposed to increase while others are proposed to decrease. To mitigate rate impacts, customers who receive increases will have their total HE's phased-in over the next five years.
The list of Household Equivalence Factors is located with the Public Works Department. For example, for a commercial customer with approximately 2,500 square feet (sq ft) of professional office space. The calculation is 0.8 x 2,500 sq ft/1,000 = 2 HE. Please call the Public Works Department at (530) 378- 6641 if you need assistance determining your customer class and/or calculating your number ofHEs. 2 Proposed Sewer Rates
The current and proposed rates for the City's sewer service fees are set forth in the following table.
If adopted, the first rates adjustment will go into effect on August l, 2025. Subsequent increases will be implemented on July l of each year beginning on July 1, 2026 through July 1, 2029.

To calculate the sewer bill for commercial customers, first, calculate the number of HEs based on your customer category and square footage. Then multiply the number of HEs by the Base Rate. Next, multiply your average consumption for the months of October through March by the Flow Charge. The following shows how the monthly sewer bill would be calculated for a commercial customer with a 2,500 square foot office with winter average consumption of 8 ccf.

4 Public Hearing
The City Council will hold a Public Hearing on Tuesday, July 15, 2025 at 5:30 pm in the City Council Chambers, which is on the third floor of City Hall located at 1887 Howard Street, Anderson, CA, to consider the proposed recommendations for the rate increases to the City's sewer service fees.
Any property owner of a parcel upon which the sewer service fees will be imposed and/or any tenant directly responsible for the payment of sewer service fees (i.e., a customer of record) may submit a written protest to the proposed increases to the City's sewer service fees. However, only one protest will be counted per identified parcel.
If you submitted a protest to the original Proposition 218 Notice, you will need to submit a new protest to oppose the proposed rate increases set forth in this notice.
All written protests MUST include ALL of the following to be counted:
l. State that the identified property owner or customer of record is in opposition to the proposed increases;
2. Provide the location of the identified parcel (by assessor's parcel number or street address);
3. Include the name and signature of the property owner or customer of record submitting the protest.
Written protests mav be submitted by:
1. Mail to: City Clerk Christy White, 1887 Howard Street, Anderson, CA, 96007; or
2. In-person delivery during City business hours at 1887 Howard Street, Anderson, CA, 96007;or
3. At the Public Hearing on Tuesday, July 15, 2025, at 5:30 pm.
For your convenience, you may fill out and submit the enclosed protest form and return it to City Clerk Christy White at the above address. Regardless of how the written protest is submitted, it must be received by the City prior to the conclusion of the public comment portion of the Public Hearing (date and time noted above). Any protest submitted via e-mail or other electronic means will not be accepted. Please identify on the front of the envelope for any written protest, whether mailed or submitted in person to the City Clerk, that the enclosed protest is for the Public Hearing on the Proposed Sewer Service Fees.
The City Council will hear and consider all written and oral protests to the proposed rate increases at the Public Hearing. Oral comments at the Public Hearing will not qualify as formal protests unless accompanied by a written protest. Upon the conclusion of the Public Hearing, the City Council will consider the adoption of the proposed increases in rates for sewer services as noted in this letter. If a majority of property owners or customers of record do not protest the proposed increase, the City Council will have the authority to impose the proposed rates. If adopted, the proposed rates for the sewer service fees will be in effect beginning August l , 2025.
s
Pursuant to California Government Code 53759, there is a 120-day statute of limitations for challenging any new, increased, or extended fee adopted, modified, or amended by the City of Anderson. All written objections must be submitted before the end of the public hearing as stated above and a failure to timely object in writing bars any right to challenge that fee or assessment through a legal proceeding.
If you have any questions about this proposal, the Public Works Department can be reached at (530) 378-6641 during regular business hours. A complete copy of the consultant's report to the City Council will be available on our website at www.ci.anderson.ca.us or in person in the City Clerk's Office at City Hall 72 hours prior to the scheduled Public Hearing.

11 .Q: DEBT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO
• Wastewater Fund has 3 outstanding debt obligations:
• 2001 USDA Revenue Bonds for $2,076,000
• 2001 Riverside COPs for $232,570
• 2007 CSCDA Revenue Bonds for $1.GM
• Total annual debt service payments= $228,000
■ Coverage ratio is a financial measure of an agency's ability to repay outstanding debt
• Ratio requires that annual water net revenues (gross revenues less O&M expenses) must be at least 1.25 times the combined annual debt service payments on all parity obligations
Calendar Year 2021 2022 2023 2024
Debt Service Coverage Ratio -0.53 -0.74 -2.66 -3.81
■ Failure to meet the coverage ratio on an annual basis is considered to be technical default
■ Could lead to a rating downgrade and may impact the City's ability to obtain additional debt funding in the future

■ City has upgraded the pumps and motors to make them as energy-efficient as possible, but increased energy costs have offset the decrease in energy usage. ■ The majority of the needed projects identified in the 2007 Master Sewer Plan for the collection system have not been completed
■ Proposed rates will pay for $11.0 million in capital projects, including an updated Master Sewer Plan, replacing sewer pipelines, upgrading electrical equipment, new pressure filter, and vehicle replacements ■ All projects will be cash-funded. No grant or loan funding. 13 ill]
■ The assignment of HEs to each customer class represents each customer's proportional impact on the overall sewer system ■ One HE is defined as the wastewater flow and pollutant loading of the average single family dwelling unit in the City
■ For all other customers, the factors have been updated based on industry-standard estimates of wastewater volume and pollutant loadings

Public health crisis due to physician shortage in Shasta County
I RECOMMENDATION
Councilmember Hale recommends:
Approve a Resolution which recognizes a public health crisis due to the physician shortage in Shasta County.
I FISCAL IMPACT
None.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
On June 10, 2025, the Shasta County Public Health Officer formally declared that the county's ongoing and worsening physician shortage constitutes a Public Health Crisis. This declaration was made in response to a significant and well-documented decline in the availability of physicians across key medical disciplines, including primary care, internal medicine, psychiatry, obstetrics and gynecology, and both surgical and medical specialties.
The declaration emphasizes that, while this situation does not currently meet the statutory criteria for a local health emergency under California Health and Safety Code §101080, it warrants coordinated attention and urgent local action. It calls on County leaders, ITEM 8.1 PAGE1 7/15/2025
healthcare providers, academic institutions, and community partners to prioritize physician recruitment and retention, expand clinical training infrastructure, build strategic partnerships, and pursue state and federal funding opportunities.

ITEM 8.1 PAGE2 7/15/2025
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY OF ANDERSON, CALIFORNIA,
RECOGNIZING A PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS DUE TO PHYSICIAN SHORTAGE IN SHASTA COUNTY
Whereas, the Shasta County Public Health Officer has declared that a significant shortage of physicians across numerous specialties-including primary care, internal medicine, psychiatry, obstetrics and gynecology, surgical and medical specialties-constitutes a Public Health Crisis in Shasta County; and
Whereas, this shortage is already having adverse impacts on the community, including increased wait times for medical appointments, delays in referrals, unmanaged chronic conditions, and greater reliance on emergency departments for non-emergency care; and Whereas, rural and underserved areas within the County are disproportionately affected, as geographic and financial barriers further limit access to timely medical services; and Whereas, Shasta County's physician workforce is aging, and the rate at which new physicians are entering local healthcare system is insufficient to meet current or future community needs; and
Whereas, the long-term health and well-being of Shasta County residents is at risk unless immediate, collaborative and strategic actions are taken to address this growing crisis; and Whereas, the Public Health Officer has called for coordinated efforts to prioritize physician recruitment and retention, expand clinical training opportunities, strengthen partnerships with hospitals and educational institutions and pursue external funding opportunities; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT PROCLAIMED, that the Anderson City Council herby recognizes the physician shortage as a Public Health Crisis and expresses its support for collaborative, community-based strategies to rebuild and strengthen the County's medical workforce.
BE IT FURTHER PROCLAIMED, that the Council encourages regional stakeholders, healthcare providers, educational institutions, and public health partners to align efforts in addressing this urgent issue and securing access to quality healthcare for all Shasta County residents.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the Anderson City Council Joey Forseth-Deshais, City Manager
From: Adam Whelen, Public Works Director
Date: July 15, 2025
I SUBJECT
Wastewater User Charges - Fixed Rate Allocation
I RECOMMENDATION
The Public Works Director recommends that the City Council:
1. Receive a staff report:
2. Adopt a resolution amending wastewater user charges established by Resolution 99-54
!FISCAL IMPACT
Increased fixed-rate revenue will fund the cost of service and maintain a reserve fund for emergencies and unforeseen circumstances.
I DISCUSSION and BACKGROUND
In 1998, the City conducted its first sewer rate study to assess the sewer user fee rates after operating losses in the Wastewater Enterprise Fund. Since 1998, the fixed-rate basis for different user classifications has remained unchanged. Resolution 99-54 states that residential, commercial, or industrial should be based on a fixed rate multiplier of one per unit. This is contrary to how development impact fees are calculated based on household equivalency, which factors in the impact the development has on the overall sewer system.
House equivalency refers to the equivalent demand of a development based on the average residential usage. One household equivalent (HE) is equivalent to 300 gallons per day, with ITEM 8.9 PAGE1 7/15/2025
a biological oxygen demand (BOD) of 240 milligrams per liter and a total suspended solids (TSS) of 260 milligrams per liter. Based on this calculation, the household equivalency factors are applied according to the size and use of the development. For example, professional office space is equivalent to 0.8 HE per 1,000 square feet. A professional office space has a lower impact than a food service facility per 1,000 square feet. Adjusting these rates aligns with the utility factors established in the most recent Sewer Master Plan.
Attached are the current Wastewater Utility Factors reviewed and approved by the Public Works Department and Wastewater Department staff. These factors have been utilized over the last twenty years to calculate sewer inclusion fees that new businesses are charged before they connect to the sewer system. Each non-residential development is charged based on its geographic location within the city, multiplied by the HE rate.
Should the Council agree with this recommendation, the proposed resolution will implement the changes. Similar to user charges, these utility factors should be reviewed more periodically to ensure that advancements in technology and water reduction are captured and adjusted.
