STATEMENT OF ISSUE
Fairfield Municipal Utility (FMU) provides water to the City of Fairfield on a continuous basis and is responsible for operating the existing water system, as well as ensuring that it is maintained to meet adequate service levels. On May 6, 2025, the City Council adopted the Public Utility Master Plan (PUMP), which evaluates the existing water system and develops a comprehensive water system Capital Improvement Program (CIP).
In conjunction with producing PUMP, the City retained Bartle Wells Associates (BWA) to prepare a water rate study using PUMP as the baseline guidance document for repair and replacement projects within FMU’s CIP. The water rate study was conducted in conjunction with PUMP to ensure that FMU can generate enough revenue to carry out minimum prudent CIP needs while
meeting all operations and maintenance expenses, debt service and reserve requirements. The FMU is primarily funded by fees received from the ratepayers.
The water rates last increased in 2021. The current water rate study documents the need for a new water rates fee schedule.
DISCUSSION
Summary of Findings
FMU provides water to the City of Fairfield on a continuous basis and employs staff who are responsible for maintaining a system valued at over $500 million. This system compromises of two water treatment plants, 12 storage facilities, 17 pump stations, nearly 400 miles of pipelines and fixtures (hydrants, valves, etc.), and over 30,000 water services. The water system, which is operated by talented, dedicated and highly trained staff, contains extensive and well-maintained facilities that incorporate redundant design features, ensuring reliability with few service interruptions or emergency repairs. For these extremely valuable community assets to remain in good condition, on-going investment in the proper maintenance and repair of the water infrastructure is critical.
Generally, CIP projects identified within PUMP primarily address the following: (1) age and declining condition of the water system assets; and (2) capacity and deficiencies in system performance. Over the past several decades, the water system was kept in good operating condition through continued investment and proper execution of preventative maintenance and repair activities. However, based on the useful life of the current water system, it is expected that FMU will begin to face large, annual, and ongoing capital funding needs starting approximately 8-10 years out, which will continue decades into the future as the existing water system continues to age. Projects identified in PUMP were categorized and are planned for working well before aging system failures.
As the water system continues to age, FMU is expected to provide adequate service levels. There are several factors used to define service level:
1) The amount of water available.
2) The quality of the water delivered.
3) The continuity of service and regular delivery of water with minimal disruption and cost.
The City excels in building redundant facilities and maintaining the system, which has resulted in few service interruptions or emergency repairs.
To prioritize future water system CIP and maintenance programs, analysis of the physical condition and operating capabilities of current water system assets were summarized in PUMP.
This analysis gives a clearer picture and informs decision making regarding risk level and
criticality. All water system assets were evaluated using industry standard risk assessment procedures that consider the likelihood of failure (LOF) and consequence of failure (COF). The LOF assesses the probability that an asset or facility will fail to perform at its prescribed service level, and the COF considers the effects resulting from such a failure. The risk score was then determined using both LOF and COF (Risk Score = LOF x COF).
For example, as our unseen buried pipelines and fixtures (e.g. valves, service laterals, etc.) approach the estimated end of useful life (EUL), it is critical that significant investments be made to reduce water system outages. As it pertains to buried pipelines and valves, rehabilitation and replacement programs were developed and prioritized based on the remaining useful life (RUL).
Expected improvements were forecasted and prioritized based on EUL and RUL with the basic understanding that some projects are needed as soon as practical, while others will need to be planned. It is more critical now to enact certain maintenance programs (e.g., large valve replacements) that may not have been conducted in the past, especially as certain critical assets approach their EUL.
The last water rate increases were implemented January 1, 2018, through January 1, 2021 (4% annually). The City’s past practice of routine, modest rate increases to avoid large rate spikes has served the community well. Historically, FMU provided strong financial management with small annual rate adjustments to keep revenues in line with the cost of providing service while maintaining healthy fund reserves. While staff have worked hard to ensure efficient operations and continued improvement in controlling costs, FMU has experienced substantial increases in operating and maintenance expenses over the last 4-1/2years, most of which are market driven.
Since rates were last adjusted on January 1, 2021, FMU has experienced significant cost increases in electricity, chemicals, materials, professional services and public employee’s retirement system (PERS) funding requirements. Generally, utilities face higher inflationary increases than the consumer price index (CPI), which measures consumer inflation. Due to the increase in operating expenses over the past several years, current water rates barely cover the annual operating expenses and debt service and only generate minimal funding for capital improvements. Additionally, rate increases are also needed to ensure compliance with the City’s debt service coverage covenants in connection with outstanding water debt.
In summary, after 4-1/2 years with no rate increases, the City needs to increase water rates to:
1) Recover operating costs which have increased significantly 2) Phase in funding for high-priority capital improvements to the City’s aging water infrastructure
3) Ensure compliance with the City’s debt service coverage covenants in connection with outstanding water debt
Careful management and efficient operations have allowed FMU to operate through drought and post COVID-19 marketplace conditions. While FMU’s financial position remains stable in the short
term, maintenance, rehabilitation and replacement of existing water infrastructure assets is a near-term need.
Proposition 218 Notice and Majority Protest Process and Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies Requirement
Water rate increases are subject to Proposition 218’s (Article XIII D of the California Constitution) public hearing and majority protest procedures. Staff recommend that the council adopt Resolution 2025-118 to initiate the process, schedule a public hearing, and direct staff to provide notice of the public hearing in accordance with Proposition 218. FMU staff will engage in public education over the next several months, provide mailed notice of the public hearing in accordance with the requirements of Proposition 218, and substantially in the form included as Exhibit D.
At the conclusion of the public hearing, written protests received from property owners and water customers will be tabulated (with only one protest per parcel counted) to determine whether a majority protest exists (i.e., written protests represent more than 50% of all the parcels receiving water service). The council cannot adopt the proposed water rate increases if a majority protest exists.
Proposition 218 authorizes the City to adopt procedures for the conduct of the public hearing and majority protest proceedings. Staff recommends the council adopt Resolution 2025-119. The procedures describe in detail how written protests can be submitted and how they will be counted for purposes of determining the existence of a majority protest.
The procedures also establish a new optional exhaustion of administrative remedies requirement, pursuant to Assembly Bill (AB) 2257, which became effective January 1, 2025. Staff recommend that the council adopt an exhaustion of administrative remedies requirement because it is designed to provide an opportunity for the City to address objections during the Proposition 218 public participation process, reducing the likelihood of litigation after rate increases are approved. The City must provide a period of at least 45 days after the notice of the public hearing is mailed for persons and entities to submit to the City written objections that allege that the proposed rates do not comply with the substantive requirements of Proposition 218. The notice of the public hearing statesthat a failure to timely object in writing bars any right to challenge the proposed water rates through a legal proceeding. The council must adopt written responses to all timely submitted written objections prior to or during the public hearing.
Pursuant to the proposed schedule for the Proposition 218 proceedings, notice of the public hearing will be mailed by July 11, 2025, the last date to submit an AB 2257 written objection will be August 27, 2025, the council will consider written responses to the written objections on October 21, 2025, and the public hearing will be held on November 4, 2025. If the council approves the rate increase, the new water rates will become effective on January 1, 2026, with rate increases on each subsequent January 1 through January 1, 2030.
Summary of Recommendations
Fairfield’s water rates are currently among the lowest in the region, based on a survey of 16 regional water agencies. Over the past two years, City staff have worked closely with West Yost, a water engineering consultancy firm, to create the PUMP. BWA has evaluated the findings within PUMP and prepared the water rates study for the public hearing on the proposed water rate increases. BWA’s Water Rate Study Summary of Findings and Recommendations is included as Exhibit C to this Report.
BWA recommends simplifying and standardizing the City’s water rates, realigning rates with cost of service, and charging the rates consistently for all water customers. BWA developed three draft financial and rate scenarios differentiated by the level of water system capital improvement funding. All scenarios assume projected rate increases are phased in over five years(each January 1, from 2026 through 2030) to help minimize the annual impact on ratepayers. The draft financial and rate scenarios include the following:
A. Support Water Master Plan: a combination of 12% increases for 3 consecutive years and 10% increases for two years thereafter (5 years total). After full phase-in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support approximately $10 million (current $) per year of annual funding needed to address ongoing, longer-term capital funding needs as recommended in PUMP.
B. Reduced Rate Increases: 10% annual rate increases for each of the next 5 years. After full phase-in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support approximately $8 million (current $) per year of annual funding needed to address ongoing, longer-term capital funding needs as recommended in PUMP.
C. Further Reduced Rate Increases: 8% annual rate increases for each of the next 5 years. After full phase-in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support only approximately $5 million (current $) per year of annual funding needed to address ongoing, longer-term capital funding needs. While this is substantially lower than the average annual funding levels recommended in PUMP, additional rate increases could be phased in in future years to support long-term capital needs.
The full Summary of Findings and Recommendations, along with methodologies and analysis regarding cash flow, financial and rate projections are included in Exhibit C.
Based on the options summarized above and included as Exhibit C, staff recommend an 8% annual rate increase for the next five years. In the absence of a majority protest, the council may adopt the proposed water rate increases set forth in this notice of the public hearing or may adjust the rates in response to written and oral comments provided that the adopted water rates do not exceed the rates set forth in this notice.
As part of the proposed schedule of rate increases, staff recommend providing for the potential pass-through of increases in wholesale water costs. The City purchases wholesale water and has no control over its costs. The City estimated future wholesale costs in the water rates study.
However, if wholesale costs per unit are higher than predicted, the City may pass through to customers the increase in wholesale water purchase costs. The pass-through will be calculated as an increase in wholesale water purchase costs divided by customer annual volumetric water use. Notice of any adjustment to the pass-through costs will be given not less than 30 days before the effective date of the adjustment. However, no additional Proposition 218 public hearings will be required in connection with the adjustments during the five-year water rates schedule described in this Report.
Finally, in conformance with the existing Fairfield Municipal Code, customers within a portion of the Willotta Oaks subdivision have a history of paying 1-1/2 times the amount of the current City of Fairfield’s water rates. Moving forward, Staff recommends providing for the potential passthrough of increases and charge the same amount as what the City of Vallejo charges the City of Fairfield for water service to those customers within Willotta Oaks.
California Environmental Quality Act
This item is not subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq.) (CEQA) because CEQA does not apply to the establishment, modification, structuring, restructuring, or approval of water rates under Public Resources Code Section 21080(b)(8). The proposed water rates are proposed to meet operating expenses, purchase necessary supplies and equipment, meet financial reserve needs, and fund capital projects necessary to maintain service within the existing service area. Furthermore, it is not a “project” as defined under California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15378(b)(4). This item is also exempt from CEQA pursuant to California Code of Regulations Title 14, Section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty that the approval of water rates will not have a significant effect on the environment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
If the 8% annual rate increases are adopted, the high priority water system improvements identified in PUMP would be partially deferred and spread over approximately 9-10 years. The current rates generate minimal revenue to conduct any capital improvement projects and leaves the enterprise fund in an operational deficit (if no rate increases are implemented). After the 5- year phase-in of rate increases, the 8% rate increases will enable the City to fund its projected operating and debt service expenses, and enable the City to accomplish annual rate revenues of approximately $16 million per year for existing and new debt service, and ongoing capital funding needs, leaving approximately $5 million per year to help fund ongoing capital needs (i.e. funding approximately ½ of ongoing future capital funding needs). Without rate increases, the water enterprise funds (461 and 462) are projected to have annual deficits ranging from $12 million to $24 million and a negative working capital by fiscal year 2027-2028.

Hear a staff presentation pertaining to the proposed water rates.
Hear all persons interested in the matter of the proposed Water rates; and
Receive all written protests regarding the proposed water rates.
2. The existence of a majority protest will be determined for the proposed water rates. For the purpose of determining whether a majority protest exists, only one written protest for each Identified Parcel will be counted. This means that if a Customer of Record and a Record Owner each file a written protest with respect to the same parcel, only one written protest will be counted in determining the existence of a majority protest.
3. The public hearing may be continued from time to time, as the council determines is necessary to complete its consideration of the proposed water rates.
4. If the council determines at the close of the public hearing that valid written protests have been presented, and not withdrawn, representing over 50% of the Identified Parcels subject to the proposed water rates, then the council shall not approve the proposed water rates.
5. If the council determines at the close of the public hearing that a majority protest does not exist, then the council may adopt the Proposed Water Rates.
III. Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies Requirement
A. Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies Procedures
If the City complies with the procedures described in subparagraphs (1) through (6) of this Paragraph A prior to the conclusion of the public hearing, a person or entity shall be prohibited from bringing a judicial action or proceeding alleging noncompliance of the proposed water rates with Article XIII D of the California Constitution, unless that person or entity has timely submitted to the City a written objection to the proposed water rates that specifies the grounds for alleging noncompliance:
1. Make available to the public the proposed water rates no less than 45 days prior to the deadline for a ratepayer to submit a written objection, as established by the City pursuant to subparagraph 4.

City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
City of Fairfield
Water Rate Study
Summary of Findings & Recommendations
Background
The City of Fairfield provides water service to roughly 120,000 residents and 2,000 commercial, institutional and industrial customers via approximately 33,700 metered water connections.
Residential customers account for a little over 90% of total connections and about 60% of total annual water use.
The City owns and operates a water distribution system that includes over 375 miles of pipelines, 12 water storage tanks with a combined capacity of 78 million gallons, and 14 pump stations.
Sources of water supply include untreated water purchased from Solano County Water Agency and the State Water Project (via Solano Irrigation District). The City operates two water treatment plants including the Waterman Water Treatment Plant and the North Bay Regional Treatment Plant, which is jointly owned by the Cities of Fairfield and Vacaville. Many facilities are old and will need to be rehabilitated and/or replaced in upcoming years.
Water Rates & Finances
The City has not implemented any water rate increases since January 2021, almost 4-1/2 years ago. Water rates from 2021 are still in eƯect despite substantial increases in operating expenses and capital funding needs of the City’s aging water system infrastructure. Fairfield’s water rates are currently among the lowest in the region based on a survey of 16 regional water agencies. The monthly water bill for a typical single family home using 10 hundred cubic feet (hcf) of water (about 250 gallons per day) is $54.00, which is about 30% below the regional average of $76.65.
The City’s water utility is a self-supporting enterprise that relies predominantly on revenues from water rates to fund the costs of providing service. As such, rates need to be set at adequate levels to support operations, maintenance, and capital improvements needed to support safe and reliable service.
Fairfield historically provided strong financial management via adoption of small annual water rate adjustments to keep revenues in line with the cost of providing service. However, the City temporarily stopped raising rates after 2021 as it was embarking on an updated water master plan to evaluate the condition of water system infrastructure and identify capital improvement funding needs.
The water master plan (aka PUMP) was recently completed by West Yost, a water resource management and engineering firm, and adopted by City Council in May, 2025. PUMP identifies over $340 million of capital improvements to address existing system deficiencies, replace aging infrastructure, and support safe and reliable service.

City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
Water Rate Study
In conjunction with the development of the PUMP water master plan, Bartle Wells Associates (BWA) was retained to develop an updated water rate study. Key goals of the rate study include:
Develop updated water enterprise financial projections to identify future funding needs and evaluate rate increases
Evaluate the City’s water rates and recommend modifications to improve the rate structure and reflect the cost of providing service
Develop updated water rates that:
a. recover the City’s costs of providing water service
b. are fair and equitable to all customers
c. are easy to understand and implement
d. comply with the legal requirements of Proposition 218 and other California law e. provide adequate funding for capital improvement needs including high-priority nearterm needs and long-term rehabilitation and replacement of aging infrastructure Aim for steady, gradual annual rate increases to the extent possible in order to help minimize the annual impact on ratepayers while supporting the funding needs of the City’s water enterprise.
BWA worked closely with City staƯ throughout the rate study process to evaluate alternatives and develop rate recommendations for the next 5 years.
Key Factors Impacting Rate Increases
Key factors impacting the need for rate increases include:
Operating Cost Inflation – The City has experienced substantial increases in operating and maintenance expenses over the past 4+ years with no corresponding rate increases. Costs have increased for staƯing, materials, electricity, insurance, PERS funding requirements, and professional services. Utilities historically face higher inflationary cost increases than CPI, which more a measure of consumer inflation. The proposed rates are designed to both catch up with cost inflation from recent years and account for projected operating cost inflation in future years.
Capital Improvement Needs of Aging Facilities – Like many regional agencies, the City has a lot of aging water infrastructure that will require rehabilitation and replacement in upcoming years. Many of the City’s water pipelines have been in service from 50 to over 80 years and have reached or are approaching the end of their useful lives. Other infrastructure, including both water treatment plants, are old and in need of substantial improvements to address existing deficiencies and support safe and reliable service.
The recently-completed PUMP water master plan identifies $341 million of capital improvements (in current $) needed over the next 25 years including $147 million of highpriority near-term needs recommended for completion over the next 5-6 years (through 2030) and $194 million of longer-term funding needs over the subsequent 20 years.
BA RT LE WE L LS ASS OC IATE S 3
City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
The $147 million of near-term funding needs include almost $80 million of water system storage and distribution improvements, $15 million of Waterman Treatment Plant improvements, and $53 million for Fairfield’s share of capital needs for upgrading and expanding the aging North Bay Regional (NBR) Water Treatment Plant. Support Compliance with Debt Service Legal Covenants– The deferral of rate increases in recent years has diminished the City’s ability to meet debt service coverage covenants that secure outstanding water debt. The City is legally obligated to increase water rates to maintain compliance with its debt covenants.
Financial & Rate Projections
Bartle Wells Associates worked closely with City staƯ to develop updated water enterprise financial projections to identify funding needs and evaluate rate increases. The projections incorporate the latest financial information and engineering cost estimates for capital improvement needs. After almost 4-1/2 years since rates were last adjusted, the City needs to resume raising water rates to support its operating, capital and debt service funding needs. BWA developed 3 financial and rate scenarios diƯerentiated by the level of water system capital improvement funding targeted over the next 5 years. All scenarios assume the City would draw down a substantial amount of fund reserves to help fund near-term capital needs while rate increase are phased in. All scenarios also assume issuance of debt in the next 4 to 5 years to support $50-$60 million of capital needs including Fairfield’s share of cost for rehabilitation and expansion of the North Bay Regional (NBR) Water Treatment Plant. Costs of NBR expansion are projected to be repaid in future years by new development. All scenarios assume projected rate increases are phased in over 5 years to help minimize the annual impact on ratepayers. The alternative would be a substantially larger up-front rate increase.
After proposed rates are fully phased in over 5 years, the City can re-evaluate future funding needs and rate increases for subsequent years. In general, more rate increases over the next 5 years will result in the subsequent need for less rate increases in future years, and vice versa.

City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
Scenario A: Fully Support PUMP Capital Funding Needs
This scenario supports projected operating expenses and completion of $94 million (current $) of near-term, high-priority water system improvements and Fairfield’s $53 million (current $) share of NBR water treatment plant rehabilitation and expansion as recommended in the PUMP water master plan for completion over the next roughly 5 years through 2029/30. After the 5-year phase in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support average annual long-term funding needs of approximately $10 million per year (current $) as identified in PUMP to address ongoing future funding needs for rehabilitation and replacement.
Scenario B: Reduced Rate Increases & Deferred PUMP Capital Funding This scenario assumes 5-year, high-priority water system improvements identified in the PUMP water master plan are partially deferred and instead spread over approximately 7-8 years resulting in reduced capital funding levels. After the 5-year phase in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support approximately $8 million (current $) per year of annual funding needed to help address longer-term capital funding needs. Scenario C: Minimum Recommended Rate Increases
This scenario assumes 5-year, high-priority water system improvements identified in the Master Plan are partially deferred and instead spread over approximately 9-10 years resulting in further reduced capital funding levels. After the 5-year phase in of rate increases, the City’s water rates would support approximately $5 million per year of annual funding needed to address ongoing, longer-term capital funding needs.
While this scenario supports substantially less than the funding levels recommended in the PUMP master plan over the next 5 years, this scenario supports substantial steps in the right direction. As noted, with less increases over the next 5 years, additional rate increases would be needed in future years to support completion of the near-term PUMP master plan projects and eventually also support long-term capital needs. The level of rate increases in this scenario is recommended as the minimum prudent level of rate increases needed over the next 5 years.

City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
Water Rate Increase Recommendation: Scenario C
Based on evaluation and input from City staƯ, rate increases under Scenario C: Minimum Recommended Rate Increases are proposed for Council consideration. While the water enterprise would be able to more aggressively address its capital funding needs with Scenarios A or B, the level of rate increase in Scenario C balances the competing objectives of a) providing adequate funding for operating and capital needs, and b) minimizing the impact on ratepayers and keeping rates as aƯordable as possible.
Rate increases are projected to become eƯective starting January 1, 2026, a full 5 years after rates were last increased. The proposed phase-in of 8% overall annual rate increases for the next 5 years results in rates that are equivalent to the City’s 2021 rates with 4.37% annual escalation.
Hence, with full implementation of proposed rate increases, the City’s water rates will be only little higher than if the City had continued with 4% annual rate adjustments since rates were last increased in 2021.
BA RT LE WE L LS ASS OC IATE S 6
City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
Water Rate Structure Recommendations
The City’s water rate structure has not been independently reviewed or updated in many years.
Based on review of existing rates, BWA generally recommends cleaning up, simplifying, and standardizing the City’s water rates, realigning rates with cost of service, and charging the rates consistently for all water customers.
BWA developed updated water rates based on a cost-of-service analysis that accounts for both a) the recommended 8% overall annual water rate increases, and b) a number of proposed modifications to the City’s water rate structure and related billing practices. The proposed rate structure modifications would be implemented concurrently with the firstyear rate increase on January 1, 2026. This will result in first-year rate impacts that will vary for each customer based on their customer class and amount of water use. After the rate structure adjustments are implemented the first year, future rate increases starting January 1, 2027 would be applied on an across-the-board basis with the same percentage rate increases for all customers.
Proposed water rates include:
o Fixed Service Charges billed per residential dwelling unit or based on each non-residential customer’s meter size. The city’s Fixed Service Charges are billed per day in each billing period independent of the amount of water used and help recover the City’s fixed costs of providing service.
o Volume Charges based on metered water use. The City’s Volume Charges are billed per hundred cubic feet (hcf) with 1 hcf equal to approximately 748 gallons. o A small number of customers pay elevation zone or hydropneumatics pump surcharges to account for the additional costs of pumping to these zones. o The City bills monthly for water service.
Key water rate structure recommendations are summarizes as follows.
Fixed Service Charge Recommendations
o Residential Accounts: Maintain fixed charges per residential dwelling unit. o Non-Residential Accounts: BWA recommends the non-residential accounts including commercial, institutional and irrigation customers, BWAransition to a uniform set of fixed charges by meter size, with one charge for each meter size proportionally based on meter capacity. This will result in lower fixed charges for a relatively small number of customers with larger meters. The City no longer has need for diƯerent fixed charges for diƯerent types of meters as almost all of the City’s turbine meters have been replaced by single-jet meters. o Irrigation Accounts: Unlike other customer classes, irrigation customers (including customers currently classified as Irrigation, Special Landscape Irrigation, and Reclaimed Landscape Irrigation) currently are not billed any Fixed Charges and instead pay Volume Charges which are set a slightly higher rate than General Service commercial rates. BWA recommends transitioning to charging all customers a standard set of fixed and volumetric water rates. This would result in irrigation customers starting to pay Fixed Monthly Charges consistent with other customer classes. At the same time, irrigation customers would only be charged the same Volume Charges as other customers (not higher charges), which will partially oƯset the impact of starting to pay Fixed Charges.
BA RT LE WE L LS ASS OC IATE S 7
City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
Volume Charge Recommendations for Metered Water Use
o Uniform Rate for Residential and Non-Residential Water Use: The City’s Volume Charges currently vary a little based on customer class. BWA recommends the City transition to a uniform rate for all potable water use for Residential and Non-Residential customers (including commercial, institutional, irrigation and other non-residential accounts) o Residential Pumping Zone Charges: BWA updated these surcharges based on analysis of the costs of pumping to higher elevation zones. In addition to updating the charges, BWA recommends consolidation of the two higher residential elevation zone rate classes into a single class, particularly since less than 5 accounts are in one of the zones. o Hydropneumatic Pump Surcharges: BWA updated these surcharges based on analysis of the costs of pumping water to higher elevation and pressure zones.
Other Water Rate Structure Recommendations
o Large Industrial Rates for Anheuser Busch: Large Industrial customer class charges for Anheuser Busch were updated and reflect only very minor adjustments from current charges.
However, Anheuser Busch would be subject to the same overall water rate increases as all other City customers.
o Unbilled Accounts: Some accounts have historically not been billed for water service.
Pursuant to legal requirements established by Proposition 218, BWA believes the City needs to start billing these accounts to help ensure that costs funded by other customers do not exceed their proportionate cost of service.
o Willotta Oaks Subdivision Pass-Through Charges: 33 homes in the Willotta Oaks Subdivision receive water service from Vallejo’s Lake Area water system but are currently customers of Fairfield pursuant to a legal agreement from the 1970s. Fairfield pays Vallejo for providing water service to these customers based on Vallejo’s Lake Area water rates. In turn, Fairfield bills these customers at significantly lower rates set at 150% of Fairfield’s general service charges pursuant to the City’s Municipal Code, resulting in a revenue shortfall for serving the Willotta Oaks Subdivision customers.
BWA recommends that Fairfield’s customers in the Willotta Oaks Subdivision be transitioned to become customers of Vallejo, which serves as the customers’ water service provider. Until this transition takes place, BWA recommends the City bill customers in Willotta Oaks charges that reflect the cost of service by passing through Vallejo’s charges for water service to these accounts. Authorization for this pass-through would need to be authorized via the Proposition 218 process.
BWA also recommends the City review the historical agreement with Vallejo to confirm if Vallejo’s charges comply with the agreement’s provisions in order to ensure that Fairfield is not being overcharged.
o Pass-Through Authorization for Wholesale Water Charges: The City purchases untreated wholesale water supply from the Solano County Water Agency (SCWA) and Solano Irrigation District (SID). Wholesale water charges from these agencies may be subject to unanticipated increases that are outside the City’s control. To provide financial projection for these unanticipated cost increases, BWA recommends the City authorize the ability to pass through future adopted increases in wholesale water supply charges via the Proposition 218 process.
BA RT LE WE L LS ASS OC IATE S 8
City of Fairfield - Water Rate Study Summary
The financial and rate projections already account for 4% annual increases in operating costs including the costs of wholesale water supply. As such, the pass through would only apply to increases in the weighted average wholesale water supply charges per hundred cubic feet adopted by SCWA and SID in excess of 4% per year. The pass through would be calculated as a charge per hundred cubic feet of water that would be in addition to the adopted charge in eƯect and would be applied consistently to all of the City’s Water Volume Charges other than Reclaimed Landscape Irrigation Rates.
Rate Impacts & Economic Hardship Discount
The following table shows a projection of monthly residential bills with the proposed rate increases. Note that the first year rate increase accounts for both an overall rate increase as well as a number of rate structure modifications, resulting in a range of impacts the first year that can vary based on customer class and water use.
With the proposed rate increases, the City’s water rates are projected to remain in the lowerrange compared to other regional agencies. Other regional agencies have adopted or are anticipating water rate increases in upcoming years.
Economic Hardship Discount: City oƯers a water rate discount of $158 per year, equal to about $13.17 per month. Eligibility is based on Very Low Income Limits for Solano County established by the US Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The City has historically adjusted the discount roughly corresponding with the level of adopted water rate increases. BWA recommends the City continue to increase the discount corresponding with the City’s future water rate increases.

38 NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the City of Fairfield will hold a Public Hearing on November 4, 2025, at 6:00 p.m. in the City Council Chamber, located at 1000 Webster Street, Fairfield, CA 94533 to consider the adoption of proposed water rate increases. The City last adjusted water rates on January 1, 2021 and has not adopted any rate increases for over 4-1/2 years despite substantial increases in operating expenses over this period. The City is proposing to gradually increase its water rates over the next five years to provide adequate funding for operations, debt service and high-priority capital improvements needed to support safe and reliable service.
All interested persons are invited to attend the Public Hearing. The Fairfield City Council will hear and consider all written and oral comments regarding the proposed water rates at the Public Hearing. In the absence of a majority protest (described below), the City Council may adopt water rates up to the levels set forth in this Notice. If adopted, the proposed water rates would become effective starting January 1, 2026.

History of Investment in Water System
The City has a long history of investing in its water system to ensure uninterrupted service and high-quality water for our community. The City has worked hard to secure a reliable supply of water and put into place the infrastructure and treatment capacity to serve our residents and businesses. The City’s water system includes over 375 miles of water transmission and distribution pipelines, 12 water storage tanks, 14 pump stations, and two water treatment plants including the North Bay Regional Treatment Plant, which is jointly owned by the Cities of Fairfield and Vacaville.
Sources of supply include untreated water purchased from Solano County Water Agency and the Solano Irrigation District. Like many regional agencies, the City has a lot of aging water infrastructure that will require rehabilitation and replacement in upcoming years.
Why Water Rate Increases are Necessary
Fairfield’s water service charges for a typical single family home are currently among the lowest in the region. Since water rates were last adjusted in 2021, the City has faced significant water system operating cost increases without any corresponding rate adjustments. Additionally, the City recently completed an independent engineering evaluation of the water system that identifies substantial funding needs of the City’s aging water system infrastructure. The proposed rate increases are needed to:
Catch Up & Keep Up with Operating Cost Inflation – The City has experienced substantial increases in operating expenses over the past 4-1/2 years. Costs have increased for staffing, electricity, insurance, professional services and other expenses. The proposed rates are designed to both catch up with cost inflation from recent years and address escalating costs of service which are expected to rise by 3-4% per year. Fund Capital Improvement Needs of Aging Facilities – Many of the City’s water pipelines have been in service from 50 to over 80 years and are approaching the end of their useful lives. Other infrastructure, including water storage tanks and treatment plants, are old and in need of substantial improvements to address existing deficiencies and support safe and reliable service. A recently-completed Public Utility Master Plan (PUMP) was developed by West Yost, an independent engineering firm that specializes in water resources and infrastructure.
The PUMP master plan identifies $340 million of capital improvements needed over the next 25 years including over $140 million of high-priority needs recommended for completion over the next 5-6 years. Near-term funding needs include almost $80 million of water system storage and distribution improvements, $15 million of Waterman Treatment Plant improvements, and $53 million for Fairfield’s share of capital needs for upgrading and expanding the aging North Bay Regional Water Treatment Plant. Information about the City’s PUMP water master plan is available on the City’s website at ___________________________. Support Compliance with Debt Service Legal Covenants – Rate increases are also needed to support compliance with legal covenants that secure the water utility’s outstanding debt.

Notice of Public Hearing
For Proposed Water Rate Increases
DRAFT
Proposed Water Rates
The City is proposing to phase in water rate increases over the next five years and adopt a new water rate schedule as shown below. The proposed rates account for both overall annual rate increases as well as a number of modifications to the City’s water rate structure designed to align rates with the cost of providing service and ensure rates are equitably applied to all customers. The proposed rates reflect approximately 8% annual increases, however the impacts in the first year will vary based on customer class and water use due to the proposed modifications to the rate structure. The City bills monthly for water service. Proposed water rates include the following components:
Fixed Service Charges: These charges are billed per day and help recover the City’s fixed costs of providing water service. Residential customers pay fixed service charges per dwelling unit. Non-Residential customers pay fixed charges based on the size of each customer’s water meter. Large Industrial accounts pay fixed charges determined on a case-by-case basis according to each customer’s contract and/or water demand. Volume Charges: These charges are billed based on each customer’s metered water consumption. Residential Volume Charges vary based on elevation zone. Most residential customers are in Zones 1-2. As proposed, NonResidential customers would pay a uniform rate for all water use consistent with the Residential rate for Zones 1-2. The City’s Volume Charges are billed in units of one hundred cubic feet (hcf). One hcf equals approximately 748 gallons. For example, the proposed rate of $2.79 per hcf effective January 1, 2026 (for Residential Zones 1- 2 and Non-Residential accounts) equates to $0.37 per hundred gallons, or a little less than 4/10ths of a cent per gallon.
Hydropneumatic Pump Surcharge: This charge recovers costs for pumping to a pressurized zone that serves a small number of Non-Residential customers and is billed based on metered water use.
Note: Propose rates for customers outside Fairfield’s boundaries in the Willotta Oaks Subdivision shall not exceed the costs of service based on charges levied by the City of Vallejo for providing water service to these customers. See Current

Proposed Water Rates & Pass-Through Adjustments for Customers in the Willotta Oaks Subdivision on the following page.
Sample Water Bill Calculation for a Typical Single Family Home (Effective January 1, 2026) Based on the proposed water rates effective January 1, 2026, the monthly water bill for a typical single family home in Residential Zones 1-2 using 10 hcf of water (about 250 gallons per day) in a 30-day month would be calculated as follows:
Economic Hardship Discount
The City provides an Economic Hardship discount to water service charges to customers that qualify based on income and apply to the City for the discount. Eligibility is currently based on US Dept. of Housing & Urban Development Very Low Income Limits for Solano County. The City is proposing to increase the discount corresponding with proposed water rate increases as follows:
Proposed Future Pass-Through Rate Adjustments for Wholesale Water Supply Charges The City purchases untreated wholesale water supply from the Solano County Water Agency and Solano Irrigation District. Wholesale water charges from these agencies may be subject to unanticipated increases that are outside the City’s control. [To provide financial protection for these unanticipated cost increases,] the City is proposing to authorize the pass-through of increases to future wholesale water supply charges via corresponding increases to the City’s Water Volume Charges pursuant to California Government Code 53756. However the City is only proposing to pass-through future cost increases to wholesale water supply charges in excess of 4% per year. Future passthroughs would be implemented by [increasing all of the City’s Water Volume Charges per hcf by the same amount (in cents per hcf) corresponding with the weighted average cost per hcf of water supply adopted by the City’s wholesale water suppliers]. Prior to passing through any wholesale water rate increase, the City will notify all customers at least 30 days prior to implementation. These pass-throughs would only apply to customers connected to the City’s water system.
Proposed Water Rates & Pass-Through Adjustments for Customers in Willotta Oaks The City currently bills a small number of water customers located in the Willotta Oaks subdivision, which is outside the City’s [water system service area]. These customers receive water service from the City of Vallejo’s Lake Area water system. The City of Vallejo charges Fairfield for providing water service to these customers. The City of Fairfield is proposing to pass through the cost of service to customers in Willotta Oaks by charging water rates that correspond with Vallejo’s charges to the City for providing water service, without markup. Fairfield’s proposed water rates for customers in the Willotta Oaks subdivision that [receive water supply from the City of Vallejo] are based on current charges levied by the City of Vallejo onto the City of Fairfield are as follows:
Proposed Water Rates Effective January 1, 2026
Fixed Service Charge: $0.29 per day per residential dwelling unit or equivalent, plus Volume Charge: $16.21 per hcf billed based on metered water consumption.
The City is also proposing to authorize the pass-through of future increases to the charges for water billed to Fairfield by the City of Vallejo for water service to customers in the Willotta Oaks subdivision, pursuant to California Government Code 53756. These pass-throughs would be applied by a) increasing Fixed Charges by the same percentage increase to applicable fixed charges adopted by the City of Vallejo for service customers in Willotta Oaks, and b) increasing Volume Charges by the same amount (in cents per hcf) corresponding with increases to usage charges adopted by the City of Vallejo for service to customers in Willotta Oaks.
How to Protest the Proposed Water Rate Increases - Written Protests The proposed water rate increases are subject to a majority written protest process under Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution (Proposition 218). At the Public Hearing, the City Council will accept and consider all Written Protests and written comments and hear all oral comments on the water rates as proposed to be modified and increased. However, only Written Protests will be counted in determining the existence of a majority protest. Any record owner of a property that receives water service from the City or any tenant who is directly liable for payment of the City’s water service charges (a customer of record) may submit a Written Protest against the proposed water Fixed Service Charge Volume Charge Total Charge $1.04 x 30 days = $31.20 $2.79 x 10 hcf = $27.90 $59.10 Current Jan-1 Jan-1 Jan-1 Jan-1 Jan-1

rates. Owners of multiple parcels in the City may file a Written Protest for each parcel owned within the City by filing a separate Written Protest for each parcel or by filing a single Written Protest that identifies multiple parcels. Only one Written Protest per parcel against the proposed water rates, submitted by the record owner of the parcel or a customer of record, will be counted in determining whether a majority protest exists.
Written Protests may be mailed to the City Clerk at 1000 Webster Street, Fairfield, CA 94533, emailed to the City Clerk at cityclerk.ca.gov, hand delivered to the City Clerk’s Office on the 4th floor of City Hall or hand delivered to the City Clerk in the Council Chamber at the Public Hearing prior to the conclusion of the Public Hearing. Written Protests that are emailed, mailed or hand delivered to the City Clerk’s Office must be received by the City Clerk by 5:00 p.m. on November 4, 2025.
To be counted in determining the existence of a majority protest, a Written Protest must include all of the following:
1. Clearly stated opposition to the proposed water rates;
2. Identification of the parcel(s) for which the Written Protest is made (by assessor’s parcel number or street address);
3. Legibly printed name of the record owner or customer of record submitting the Written Protest; and
4. Original signature of the record owner or customer of record submitting the Written Protest.
What is a Majority Protest?
A majority protest against the proposed water rates will exist if, at the end of the Public Hearing, there are written protests submitted, and not withdrawn, that represent a majority of the parcels (50% +1) that receive water service from the City. The City Council cannot adopt the proposed water rates if a majority protest exists.
Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies - Written Objections How do I preserve my ability to judicially challenge the proposed water rates? Pursuant to California Government Code Sections 53759.1 and 53759.2, a person or entity will be prohibited from bringing a judicial action or proceeding alleging that the proposed water rates do not comply with Article XIII D of the California Constitution (adopted by Proposition 218) unless that person or entity has timely submitted a Written Objection to the proposed water rates. This is known as an Exhaustion of Administrative Remedies requirement and is separate from the Proposition 218 majority protest process described above.
To exhaust your administrative remedies, your Written Objection must include the specific grounds for alleging noncompliance of the proposed water rates with Article XIII D of the California Constitution .
Written Objections may be mailed to City Clerk at 1000 Webster Street, Fairfield, CA 94533, emailed to the City Clerk at [email protected], or hand delivered to the City Clerk’s Office on the 4th floor of City Hall and the must be received by the City Clerk by 5:00 p.m. on August 27, 2025. Note that this deadline for submitting a Written Objection is earlier than the deadline for submitting a Written Protest to provide the City with time to respond.
A failure to timely object to the proposed water rates in writing bars any right to challenge the proposed water rates through a legal proceeding. The City will respond in writing to all Written Objections received by the deadline. The City Council is tentatively scheduled to consider written responses to Written Objections at the October 21, 2025 Council meeting.
A Written Objection that also complies with the requirements for a Written Protest (see “How to Protest The Proposed Water Rate Increases” above) will be also be counted as a Written Protest in determining whether a majority protest exists against the proposed water rate increases.
Statute of Limitations for Challenging The Proposed Water Rates If the City Council adopts the proposed water rates, then pursuant to California Government Code Section 53759, there is a 120-day statute of limitations for judicially challenging the water rates that runs from the date the City Council adopts a resolution approving the water rates.

Funding Source: $4,804,620; Smith Ranch Assessment District Fund Contact: Chris Lewis, (707) 428-7089
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Hold public hearing and adopt resolution.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE
The adoption of this resolution will approve the fiscal year (FY) 2025-2026 Engineer’s Report and provide for the levy and collection of assessments within the Smith Ranch Assessment District (District) for the maintenance of streets, storm drainage, and other infrastructure within the District.
DISCUSSION
The City formed the District in 1986. In addition to providing funding for some of the initial infrastructure improvements for the Rancho Solano subdivision, the District also provides for the collection of annual assessments to fund the ongoing maintenance or repair of the improvements and open space within the District.
The funding for maintenance projects in the District requires the accrual of funds over time. Since the formation of the District, several major maintenance projects have been completed.
The engineers’ report contains a complete description of the lots and parcels of land within the boundaries of the District, an estimate of maintenance and repair costs during the next FY and the assessment levies upon lots and parcels of land.
The FY 2025-2026 levy for the District is proposed to remain at the FY 2024-2025 levy of $325 per parcel, which does not exceed the District’s adopted assessment range maximum of $395 per parcel established in 1996.
The total proposed FY 2025-2026 revenue for the District is $468,833, which includes assessments of $389,925 and interest of $78,908. The total proposed FY 2025-2026 expenditure for the District is $4,804,620, which includes project costs of $4,800,000 and administrative costs of $4,620.
Funding for maintenance projects in the District requires the accrual of assessments over time.
Since the formation of the District, several major maintenance projects have been completed. As part of the City’s FY 2023-2024 to FY 2027-2028 Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), the District will fund the 2025 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project ($2,400,000 by the end of FY 2024- 2025) and the 2026 Rancho Solano Pavement Maintenance Project ($300,000 by the end of FY 2024-2025 and $4,800,000 in FY 2025-2026). Both projects consist of pavement grinding, crack sealing, adjusting manholes/valves/monuments to grade, and application of an asphalt rubber cape seal, slurry seal, asphalt overlay, and pavement rehabilitation on various streets throughout the Rancho Solano community.
The adoption of this resolution will grant final approval of the FY 2025-2026 Engineer’s Report and order the levy and collection of FY 2025-2026 assessments for the Smith Ranch Assessment District.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The total proposed expenditure for the District is $4,804,620, which will be paid from the Smith Ranch Assessment District Fund 178.
