The Police Department recommends City Council approve a motion to note and file this report.
BACKGROUND
Pursuant to AB 481, the Glendale Police Department must obtain City Council’s annual approval to continue to use "Specialized Equipment/Military Equipment”" as defined by Government Code § 7070(c). In April 2022, the Glendale City Council passed an ordinance adopting the Specialized Equipment Use Policy (Policy 705) which satisfied AB 481’s policy requirement. The equipment identified as "military equipment" in Government Code § 7070(c) is referred to as "Specialized Equipment" in Policy 705.
Policy 705 describes the obligations outlined in Assembly Bill No. 481, which include, but are not limited to, the Glendale Police Department submitting an annual Specialized Equipment Use Report to City Council that addresses each type of Specialized Equipment possessed by the Department.
The annual Specialized Equipment Use Report shall, at a minimum, include the following information for the immediately preceding calendar year for each type of "military equipment" as defined in Government Code section 7070(c):
• A summary of how the Specialized Equipment was used and the purpose of its use.
• A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the Specialized Equipment.
• The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the Specialized Equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response. • The total annual cost for each type of Specialized Equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the Specialized Equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual Specialized Equipment use report.
• The quantity possessed for each type of Specialized Equipment. • If the Department intends to acquire additional Specialized Equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of equipment.
Specialized Equipment –means the following:
• Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles. • Mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles or armored personnel carriers. • High mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV), two-and-one-half-ton trucks, five-ton trucks, or wheeled vehicles that have a breaching or entry apparatus attached.
• Tracked armored vehicles that provide ballistic protection to their occupants. 15 of 895
3 b 4
• Command and control vehicles that are either built or modified to facilitate the operational control and direction of public safety units. • Weaponized aircraft, vessels, or vehicles of any kind. • Battering rams, slugs, and breaching apparatuses that are explosive in nature.
This does not include a handheld, one-person ram.
• Firearms and ammunition of .50 caliber or greater, excluding standard-issue shotguns and standard-issue shotgun ammunition.
• Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than.50 caliber, including firearms and accessories identified as assault weapons in Penal Code § 30510 and Penal Code § 30515, with the exception of standard-issue firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber that are issued to officers.
• Any firearm or firearm accessory that is designed to launch explosive projectiles. • Noise-flash diversionary devices and explosive breaching tools. • Munitions containing tear gas or oleoresin capsicum (OC), excluding standard, service-issued handheld pepper spray.
• TASER® Shockwave, microwave weapons, water cannons, and long-range acoustic devices (LRADs).
• Kinetic energy weapons and munitions.
• Any other equipment as determined by a governing body or a state agency to require additional oversight.
• Notwithstanding paragraphs (1) through (15), "Specialized Equipment" does not include general equipment not designated as prohibited or controlled by the federal Defense Logistics Agency.

Enterprise UAV performs many tasks demanded by first
responders, including law enforcement personnel, firefighters, and search-and-rescue operations, and by security teams. And it's affordable, so it doesn't strain your budget. Capable of flying in darkness and shooting nighttime imagery, the Mavic 2 Enterprise costs far less than an infrared camera-equipped quadcopter.
Firefighters can use Mavic 2 Enterprise to assess conditions in natural and urban settings. If power is cut off and people at the other end of a blocked road need to evacuate, attach the included loudspeaker and deliver the evacuation order—and directions to the safest way out—using the Mavic 2 Enterprise. You can also use the speaker to provide instructions to a hiker who's been found or a victim of a boating accident. Need to mark your position for others on your team or support personnel? The included beacon
attachment flashes a white light visible for 3 miles. It makes itself known through darkness, fog, and smoke. Tether it to an optional power system to significantly prolong the visual alert. If you need to record videos or stills at night—at a crash scene or in the aftermath of a crime, or to follow a suspect—mount the floodlight, and you'll have enough light to illuminate what and who you need to observe and to record evidence on 4K video or in 12MP still photos.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM
Report: Adoption of Specification and Advertising for Bids for Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project
1. Resolution adopting Specification No. 3960 for the Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project and directing the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for November 14, 2023 calendar
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The perimeter fence at the Scholl Canyon Ballfields facility is nearly 50 years old and in need of replacement. The intent of this item is to adopt the project specification and advertise for the Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project. The work includes the replacement of 2,500 linear feet of chain-link fence around the perimeter of the facility.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the Resolution adopting Specification No. 3960 for the Scholl Canyon Perimeter Fencing Replacement Project and direct the City Clerk to advertise for bids.
ANALYSIS
The Scholl Canyon Ballfields Complex is located at 3200 East Glenoaks Boulevard within the Scholl Canyon Park. The Ballfields were originally developed in 1974, as part of a 55- acre improvement of the Scholl Canyon Recreation area. The complex includes three baseball ballfields, concession building, maintenance yard, and parking lot.
The proposed new fencing will be a like-for-like replacement of the existing galvanized six-foot tall chain-link fence. The existing fence has been in-place since the complex was created and is now beyond its useful life. Specifically, the fence has significant rust and damage due to tree uplifting, ground-shifting, and general wear and tear. The fences and gates have been mended many times over the years and now require an entire replacement. The removal and installation will be executed in phases to maintain the safety and security of the facility.
57 of 895
2 c 4
The perimeter fencing at the Scholl Canyon Ballfield Complex is needed to secure the facility when it’s not being used. It protects the park from vandalism and from people driving vehicles onto the fields and damaging the playing surfaces. The fencing also protects park patrons by preventing them from accessing potentially dangerous slopes and hillside areas.
STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
The work will be coordinated to minimize any disruptions to operations and the public.

REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM
Report: Authorization for Submittal of Department of Resources, Recycling and Recovery (CalReycle) Application for Payment Programs and Related Authorizations for a Period of Five Years
1) Resolution authorizing submittal of CalRecycle grant applications and related authorizations for which the City of Glendale is eligible for five years.
COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Calendar
Approved for November 14, 2023 calendar
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff regularly submit applications for various Cal Recycle grants to provide additional funding opportunities for environmental programs. The intent of this item is to obtain authorization through a resolution to submit applications to CalRecycle on behalf of the City of Glendale.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the attached resolution authorizing submittal of CalRecycle grant applications and related authorizations for which the City of Glendale is eligible for five years. 60 of 895
BACKGROUND
Beverage Container Recycling Grant
CalRecycle provides grant payments to governmental agencies to support recycling and waste reduction programs within their jurisdictions. The beverage container grant program has been in place for several years with the goal of maximizing the redemption of California Refund Value (CRV) beverage containers. Each jurisdiction’s designated funding amount is based on population.
Organics Recycling Grant
CalRecycle is administering grant payments to assist with the implementation of California Senate Bill 1383 (SB1383), also known as the short-lived climate pollutants act.
This bill is intended to reduce the disposal of organic waste such as food in landfills and requires refuse haulers to recycle organics. SB 1383 grant funding can be used for collection, capacity planning, edible food recovery, education, program evaluation, procurement, record keeping, outreach and enforcement.
ANALYSIS
CalRecycle provides grant payments to governmental agencies to support various environmental policies and programs. As is required by the beverage container recycling grant, SB 1383 local assistance grant, and many other grants, CalRecycle requires the submittal of a resolution authorizing the submittal of the application, assignment a signature authority on behalf of the organization, and the identification of a time period which the authorizations are valid.
The submittal of these grants and future grants through CalReycle will allow the city to continue to provide funding for otherwise un-funded State mandates. The SB 1383 grant is a non-competitive grant that provides jurisdictions funding to assist with the implementation of SB 1383 requirements. This legislation sets numerous requirements on both the jurisdiction and the community with no other available funding source.. This grant opportunity will provide Glendale with the finances to ensure the city complies with these regulations.
The city received 2021-22 SB 1383 grant funding in the amount of $288,291. A new SB 1383 grant is available for 2022-23 in the estimated amount of $331,615 with the approval of the attached resolution. The funding will be used to offset the cost of the residential cart replacement project. In fiscal year 2023-2024, new carts will be provided for the Tuesday and Wednesday residential collection routes. The resolution also provides Public Works staff with the authorization to apply for future CalRecycle grants or funding opportunities for the next five years.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report. CalRecycle grant payments will be deposited into the Refuse Fund (5300) and used for various environmental programs. 61 of 895
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This item is considered a ministerial activity and therefore, not subject to CEQA review.
ALTERNATIVES
Alternative 1: Approve the attached resolution and authorize the submittal of grant applications for various environmental programs.
Alternative 2: Elect not to not approve the attached resolution and these grant applications for environmental programs will not be submitted.
Alternative 3: The City Council may consider another any other alternative not proposed by staff.

Repainting commercial buildings is an important component of proper building maintenance. Exterior paint is not performed for solely aesthetic purposes. A fresh coat of paint seals the building and protects it against water intrusion which can cause costly mildew, mold and water damage. It also offers some protection from termites and other pests. Typically, a commercial building exterior is painted approximately every 15-20 years on top of proper annual maintenance.
The 140 N Isabel St. building was constructed in 1960 and served as the Glendale police station and jail for over 40 years. In 2004 police operations were relocated to the new police building across the street. The exterior of the 140 N. Isabel facility has not been 66 of 895
2 e 4
painted in over 20 years and is showing significant signs of deterioration. Much of the maintenance at this facility has been deferred due to the uncertainty of its future use. To maintain the aesthetic appearance and preserve the asset for any future use, the building exterior needs to be repainted.
The Civic Center Parking Garage is located at 650 E Wilson Ave. and provides parking for all Civic Center employees and the public utilizing Civic Center services. The parking structure was originally built in 1982 and there are three stairways that service the four levels of parking. The stairways have not been painted in over 20-years and are showing significant signs of wear. The new paint will enhance aesthetics and protect the steel stairs and handrails from rust and structural damage.
All work will be completed with the same existing colors and will be coordinated to not affect the facility’s use.
STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
All work will be coordinate to minimize impacts to employees and public use of the facilities.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact associated with this report.

TITLE 8, CHAPTER 8.42 OF THE GLENDALE MUNICIPAL CODE,
1995, TO PROHIBIT THE USE OF POLYSTYRENE PRODUCTS
AND SINGLE-USE PLASTICS
WHEREAS, on April 6, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 5964 regulating the use of polystyrene and single-use plastics which was principally focused on prohibiting the use of non-compostable disposable food service ware in city departments, and by city contractors, agents, and employees at certain city events; and
WHEREAS, Ordinance No. 5964 also required food and beverage providers serving food at a city event to provide compostable disposable straws and utensils upon request only, and allowed food and beverage providers to dispense plastic straws as an accommodation to people with disabilities who request them to enjoy equal access to food and beverage services at city events; and
WHEREAS, on September 21, 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 5973 implementing regulations on the distribution of disposable foodware accessories by food and beverage facilities; and WHEREAS, on January 10, 2023, the City Council considered the introduction of a comprehensive plastic waste reduction ordinance that would repeal and replace Ordinance No. 5964 regulating “Polystyrene and Single Use Plastics” set forth in Glendale Municipal Code, 1995, Chapter 8.42; and WHEREAS, the City Council also directed staff to amend Chapter 8.42 to extend certain regulations on the use of polystyrene products to a city-wide basis and to undertake certain public education programs.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF GLENDALE:
SECTION 1. The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated herein by this reference.
70 of 895
SECTION 2. Title 8 of the Glendale Municipal Code, 1995, Chapter 8.42 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
CHAPTER 8.42
POLYSTYRENE AND SINGLE-USE PLASTIC PRODUCTS
8.42.010 Purpose and findings.
8.42.020 Definitions.
8.42.030 Prohibition on use of non-compostable food
service ware at city facilities and city events.
8.42.035 Prohibition on the use, distribution or sale of polystyrene foodware, coolers, packing materials,
egg cartons, and produce, meat and fish trays.
8.42.040 Single-use beverage bottles.
8.42.045 Exemptions.
8.42.050 Appeals.
8.42.055 Violations and penalties.
8.42.010. Purpose and findings.
The City Council finds and declares that:
A. As set forth in California Public Resources Code Section 42355, the state Legislature recognized that littered plastic products have caused and continue to cause significant environmental harm and have burdened local governments with significant environmental cleanup costs.
B. The state Legislature further declared its intent to ensure that environmental marketing claims, including claims of biodegradation of plastics, do not lead to an increase in environmental harm associated with plastic litter by providing consumers with a false belief that certain plastic products are less harmful to the environment.
C. Plastics synthesized from petroleum and natural gas do not biodegrade.
Even with the emergence of bioplastics, which are derived from renewable biomass sources, such as plants and microorganisms, there is no certified type of bioplastic that biodegrades in a marine environment.
D. Despite continued efforts, and the current availability of non-plastic, 71 of 895
compostable alternatives, the city continues to see littered plastic, namely plastic straws, stirrers, takeout containers, cups, lids and cutlery. Plastic straws, stirrers, take out containers, cups, lids and cutlery are generally made from polystyrene or polypropylene. The city intends to set a positive example through the adoption of this ordinance, that all disposable, single use food service ware, as defined herein, at citymanaged events, city run concessions and city-sponsored events where prepared food is served, must be compostable to reduce or eliminate the amount of disposable food service ware sent to the landfill and the amount of plastic pollution in the ocean.
E. Adoption of additional prohibitions on the use and distribution of polystyrene and single use plastics will be brought back for City Council consideration following completing of further public outreach and education.

COUNCIL ACTION
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed ordinance would introduce a ban on the use, distribution, and sale of polystyrene products starting in November 2023. Specifically, the proposed ordinance will prohibit the use, distribution and sale of any polystyrene foodware in conjunction with the sale of prepared food, raw food or beverages, as well as the sale and distribution of polystyrene coolers and polystyrene packaging materials at any location within the City.
Additionally, no person may sell, distribute, or use within the City any meat trays or fish trays, produce trays, and egg cartons made, in whole or in part, from polystyrene. Finally, restrictions on the use of single-use plastic beverage bottles would go into effect for City of Glendale operations.

COUNCIL PRIORITIES
Operational Efficiency.
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council introduce an ordinance to prohibit the use, distribution and sale of certain polystyrene products.
BACKGROUND
Since 2021, the City Council adopted two ordinances tackling the use and distribution of single-use plastics and disposable foodware accessories.
Single Use Plastics:
Ordinance No. 5964, adopted in April 2021, prohibits using single-use plastic products to serve prepared foods at certain City-managed, City-run concessions or citysponsored events located in City-owned or controlled facilities. That Ordinance requires all disposable food service ware used by food or beverage providers who serve prepared food and beverages at a City event to be marine-biodegradable. The City, its contractors, agents, and employees acting in their official capacity are not permitted to purchase, acquire, or distribute for public use non-marine-biodegradable food service ware for use at City events.
Disposal Foodware Accessories:
Ordinance No. 5973, adopted in September 2021, regulates the distribution of disposable foodware accessories. This Ordinance prohibits food and beverage facilities City-wide from providing self-serve disposable foodware accessory dispensers or providing or offering disposable foodware accessories to a dine-in or a take-out customer, except upon customer request. However, a food and beverage facility may ask a drive-through or delivery customer if the customer wants any disposable foodware accessories. In addition, prepared food facilities that use online food ordering platforms are required to provide options on the online ordering platform that enable customers to choose which disposable foodware accessories to include with each online order via an opt-in option.
Adopting the Single Use Plastics and Disposal Foodware ordinances has reduced plastic use and raised awareness of the impact of plastic waste on our environment.
Locally, single-use plastics are a significant source of litter and contamination in recycling programs as confusion surrounds which forms of plastic are acceptable to discard in recycling bins. Littered plastic products cause substantial environmental harm and burden governments with considerable cleanup costs.
Polystyrene and Other Plastic Products:
94 of 895
3 7a
On March 22, 2022, City Council approved a motion directing staff to prepare a report on the validity of prohibiting polystyrene, foodware, the use of single-use plastic straws, stirrers and utensils, a disposable cup charge, and reusable foodware for dining on premises.
On November 29, 2022, the City Council directed staff to prepare an ordinance regulating plastic waste, specifically, polystyrene products, single-use plastic straws, stirrers, and utensils. Council also directed that the proposed Ordinance should establish disposable foodware standards, disposable cup charges, reusable foodware dining on-premises standards, and the prohibition of single-use beverage bottles.
On January 10, 2023, staff presented the Plastic Waste Reduction Regulations Ordinance which encompassed Council’s previous direction. However, Council directed staff to provide more public outreach and education before adopting these new regulations and directed staff to undertake an extensive education and outreach campaign on plastic waste regulations focused on:
i. Prohibition on use and or distribution of single-use plastic straws, stirrers, and utensils
ii. Disposable foodware recycling standards
iii. Disposable cup charge
iv. Reusable foodware for dining on premises
Council further directed staff to prepare an ordinance prohibiting the use, distribution, and sale of polystyrene foodware, polystyrene coolers, polystyrene packing materials, polystyrene egg cartons, polystyrene produce trays, and polystyrene meat and fish trays.
ANALYSIS
Staff recommends adopting the proposed polystyrene prohibitions for several important reasons, primary among these is that polystyrene products are notoriously difficult to recycle. According to the UCLA Luskin Center for Innovation 2020, “PS/EPS waste is especially difficult to transport and sort due to its weight. Its low density also makes it difficult for facilities to recover a mass of PS/EPS that is sufficient for recycling in an economically viable manner. PS recycling is thus generally inefficient and not practiced in Los Angeles County, and most PS/EPS goods — including food service ware — are either landfilled or littered.”
Second, many food and beverage providers have voluntarily sought alternatives to polystyrene products. And third, there are plastic alternatives to polystyrene products that are cost-comparable. Finally, studies by the National Center for Biotechnology 95 of 895
4 7a
Information, Endocrine Society indicate human health effects associated with polystyrene and plastics, namely from ingestion of microplastics. Plastics contain endocrinedisrupting chemicals linked to increased risk of many chronic diseases.
In preparation for drafting the proposed ordinance Staff researched cities (Culver City, Monrovia, Long Beach, Hermosa Beach, Malibu, Sant Monica) that possess similar polystyrene product prohibitions already in place.
Staff reviewed the scope and scale polystyrene regulations contained in Culver City, Monrovia, Long Beach, Hermosa Beach, Malibu, Santa Monica polystyrene ordinances to determine the which requirements should be included in Glendale’s proposed ordinance (See Exhibit 1 City of Hermosa Beach and Exhibit 2 City of Long Beach). Based on this review, Staff recommends that the proposed Polystyrene Prohibitions consist of the following requirements:
1. Polystyrene Use, Distribution, and Sale Prohibition
The proposed ordinance prohibits the use, distribution, and sale of polystyrene foodware, polystyrene coolers, polystyrene packing materials, polystyrene egg cartons, polystyrene produce trays, and polystyrene meat and fish trays. The polystyrene prohibition would go into effect 30 days after the adoption of an ordinance and would impact all food and beverage providers and vendors using, distributing, or selling polystyrene products. The proposed ordinance specifies the following (note: capitalized terms used below are defined in the proposed ordinance):
a) No Food or Beverage Provider shall use, distribute, or sell any Polystyrene Foodware in conjunction with the sale of Prepared Food, Raw Food, or Beverages at any location within the City.
b) No Person shall sell or distribute any Polystyrene Foodware or Polystyrene Coolers at any location within the City.
c) No Vendor in the City shall sell, distribute, or use Polystyrene Packing Material, including, but not limited to, foam peanuts, packing peanuts, foam popcorn, or packing noodles within the City.
d) No Person may sell, distribute, or use within the City any Meat and/or Fish Trays, Produce Trays, and/or Egg Cartons made, in whole or in part, from Polystyrene. e) Food and Beverage Providers that distribute Prepared Food, Raw Food, or Beverages in Disposable Foodware or Disposable Foodware Accessories shall:
(1) Not disseminate Disposables that exhibit Resin Code ”No. 6” or ”PS”. 96 of 895
5 7a
f) City employees, contractors, agents, and officers acting in their official capacity shall not purchase, use, or distribute Polystyrene Foodware.
2. Costs and Alternative Options
To comply with the regulations, food and beverage providers, packaging stores, and grocery stores would have a six (6) month grace period to use up their supply of regulated polystyrene products purchased within the year preceding the ordinance effective date.
The good news is that alternative products already exist and are in many cases less expensive than polystyrene. Such alternatives include:
a) Reusable Products
b) Plastic Products (to the extent not already prohibited):
i. Polyethylene terephthalate PET
ii. High Density Polyethylene HDPE
iii. Low Density Polyethylene LDPE
iv. Polypropylene PP
c) Fiber/Paper/Chipboard Products
d) Aluminum Products

3. Single Use Plastic Bottles – Prohibition Applicable to City Operations Only Staff recommends that the proposed ordinance include the implementation of a policy within the City’s Administrative Policy Manual that prohibits City employees, representatives, contractors, agents, or officials from using, selling, distributing, or otherwise providing any single-use Plastic Beverage Bottle or Aseptic Paper Packaging while acting on behalf of the City or while acting pursuant to a City contract or agreement.
However, City employees, representatives, contractors, agencies, or officials would not be prohibited from bringing their own food or beverages for personal consumption while acting on behalf of the City or while acting according to the City contract or agreement.
4. Exemptions
The following exemptions are included in the proposed ordinance:
A. The following are exempt from the provisions of this Chapter:
i. Coolers and ice chests, other than those defined as Polystyrene Coolers in this Chapter.
ii. Food brought by individuals for personal consumption. iii. During a locally declared emergency, the City, emergency response agencies operating within the City, users of City facilities, and Food Providers and Beverage Providers shall be exempt from the provisions of this Chapter. iv. The Food Provider or Beverage Provider provides or distributes a plastic beverage straw upon request to individuals with disabilities as needed to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act.
B. Food or Beverage Providers that are obligated to purchase or have purchased polystyrene food or beverage service ware under a contract entered within the year before the operative date of this ordinance are exempt from the provisions of this Chapter for six (6) months following its operative date.
C. The City Manager or designee may exempt any person from the regulations as follows:
98 of 895
7 7a
1. A request for an exemption shall be filed in writing with the City Manager or designee. It shall include documentation of the reason for the claimed exemption and any other information necessary for the department to decide.
The department may require the Applicant to provide additional information to make the required determinations.
2. The City Manager or designee may grant an exemption for a maximum of one (1) year, with or without conditions, upon finding that compliance would create an undue hardship. Applications for exemption renewals will also be considered. Undue hardship shall be construed to include but not be limited to situations where:
a. There are no reasonable alternatives to polystyrene food service ware for reasons unique to the Applicant; or
b. Compliance with the requirements of this Chapter would deprive a person of a legally protected right.
5. Enforcement.
If the City Council adopts these regulations, they will be enforced through the administrative citation process set forth in GMC Chapter 1.24. The Glendale enforcement process involves issuance of warning notices for a first and second violation. After that, violators would be subject to an administrative fine of $25 per day for a third violation and each subsequent violation, up to a maximum of $300 per calendar year. The proposed fines will be outlined in the fee resolution submitted when the Ordinance comes back for adoption.
An essential aspect of these regulations is the impact on food or beverage facility operators and others subject to the ordinance. The cost to food or beverage facility operators is expected to be varied depending on substitute materials required for compliance with the ordinance.
STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
Staff developed an information campaign around the tagline “Consider the Environment, be Polystyrene Aware”. The objective of the campaign is to specifically addresses the proposed prohibition on polystyrene products and to clearly state the products that will be banned under any such ordinance.
Staff mailed an information packet to 750 food and beverage providers in Glendale. Each packet included:
1. A QR code linking to Armenian and Spanish translation of the information provided. 99 of 895
8 7a
2. Information card on the proposed polystyrene prohibition.
3. A letter detailing the proposed polystyrene prohibition.
4. A QR code link to a survey for recipients of the mailing to complete.
5. Website address for the Office of Sustainability with information on the prosed prohibition.
6. In addition, staff hosted an online webinar reviewing the proposed polystyrene prohibition.
7. Emailed business associations directing their members to information on the proposed polystyrene prohibition on:
a. 7/24/23
b. 9/18/23
8. Conducted an In-session briefing at Galleria Food Court.
Survey Results:
Residents Responses:
• 66% want City to reduce single use plastic foodware.
• 86% Glendale should prohibit single use plastic foodware. • 91% Glendale should prohibit Styrofoam products
Business Responses:
• 57% agree that important to reduce polystyrene, SUP in landfills and as litter. • 78% concerned with costs of alternatives to plastics. • 60% businesses support polystyrene ban.
• 71% businesses already trying to reduce SUP.
FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact associated with the implementation of this ordinance will depend upon the desired levels and duration of enforcement.
An essential aspect of these regulations is the impact on food or beverage facility operators and others subject to the ordinance. The cost to food or beverage facility operators is expected to be varied depending on substitute materials required for compliance with the ordinance.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (CEQA/NEPA)
Staff conducted environmental review and determined the ordinance does not require review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) and that this ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of Division 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations (the CEQA Guidelines) because the adoption 100 of 895
9 7a
of this ordinance is covered by the commonsense exemption that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may be a significant effect of the environment, therefore the activity is not subject to the requirements of CEQA. Further the action is exempt pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15308 (Actions by Regulatory Agencies for the Protection of the Environment), because these regulations involve the imposition of regulations for the protection of the environment through the reduction of plastic wastes, which include polystyrene, polystyrene packaging materials, single use plastics, from entering the waste stream, and from entering the environment.
CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE
This item is exempt from campaign disclosure requirements.
ALTERNATIVES

RECOMMENDATION
That the Council introduce and subsequently adopt an ordinance amending Section
9.25.050 of the Glendale Municipal Code pertaining to the exceptions to the ban on possession of firearms and ammunition on City property.
ANALYSIS
On March 19, 2013, the Council adopted Ordinance No. 5794 adopting Chapter 9.25 of the Glendale Municipal Code (“GMC”), 1995, Relating to the Possession and Sale of Firearms and Ammunition on City Property. In substance, Section 9.25.050 bans the possession and sale of firearms and ammunition on all City property, including but not limited to parks, playgrounds, open space, plazas, community centers, the Civic Auditorium, the Civic Center complex, City libraries, parking lots and parking structures.
Section 9.25.050 contains certain exemptions on the possession of firearms on City property such as by peace officers or retired police officer when authorized to carry a concealed weapon or loaded firearm in accordance with state or federal law, authorized military and law enforcement personnel, and authorized security guards of banks and armored vehicles.
On October 12, 2022, the California Rifle & Pistol Association (“CRPA”) filed suit in federal district court challenging Chapter 9.25 on the grounds that the ban on the possession of firearms and ammunition on City property violates the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, under standards enunciated by the U.S. Supreme Court in the recent case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, et al. (2022) 142 S. Ct. 2111 (“Bruen”). In Bruen, the Supreme Court struck down a New York law requiring “good cause” for the issuance of a concealed carry weapon (CCW) permit. In doing so, the Court revised the way courts are to review firearm regulations. Under Bruen, courts determine whether the plain text of the Second Amendment protects the activities a law regulates. If it does, then “the government must affirmatively prove that its firearms regulation is part of the Nation’s historical tradition to set boundaries on gun use.” This means then that if a statute or ordinance is determined to burden an individual’s Second Amendment rights, the government’s burden is to demonstrate that there is a similar historical analogue supporting such a burden that represents a national tradition of firearm restriction.
While the Court found that regulations prohibiting the possession of firearms in “sensitive places” are rooted in the Nation’s history, not all places of public congregation have a historical analogue. Some places – such as schools, government buildings where government business is conducted, e.g. City Hall, legislative assemblies, polling places and courthouses have historical analogues justifying the possession of firearms at such locations. Consideration of other public properties requires a historical analysis to determine whether such locations have a historical analogue in our Nation’s history as “sensitive places” such that they may be restricted.
CRPA’s litigation challenges the City’s ban of possession on all City property, contending it is overbroad and that not all City properties qualify as “sensitive places.” After litigation over a preliminary injunction motion and settlement negotiations, the City has agreed to 128 of 895
3 a 8
resolve this litigation by amending GMC Section 9.25.050 to revise the list of exemptions where possession of firearms and ammunition on City property may occur, subject to Council’s approval of the proposed ordinance. The proposed ordinance would add subdivision M to Section 9.25.050 to provide that the ban on the possession on the ban on firearms and ammunition on City properties does not apply to the following:
“M. Individuals with validly issued concealed carry weapon (“CCW”) permits as it pertains to possession on City-owned open spaces, parks, the Glendale Civic Auditorium, parking lots and playgrounds, but, as it pertains to playgrounds, only when the CCW permit holder is in the company of their minor children, or other children they are there to care for or supervise, at the playground. “Playground”, as used herein, shall mean, refer and relate to City property where a child play structure is present. Individuals with CCW permits not caring for or supervising children shall not be permitted to possess firearms or ammunition in a playground or within a fifty (50) foot radius surrounding a playground, however to the extent that the fifty (50) foot radius renders a surrounding park inaccessible, Section 9.25.040 shall not apply for the limited purpose of allowing such CCW permit holders access to the surrounding park. Nothing in this subdivision (M) shall be construed to authorize or permit conduct that violates any state law regarding the possession of firearms in or on local government property that is legally in effect.”
Possession of firearms and ammunition on all other City properties and facilities would remain prohibited under the proposed ordinance including the Civic Center campus, libraries, police and fire stations and facilities, public transit facilities, and community and recreation centers such as the Adult Recreation Center and Pacific Community Center. Where a park contains a community or recreation center, possession by a licensed CCW holder will be permitted on the park but not inside the community or recreation center building. In addition, the proposed ordinance will not affect the ban on the sale of firearms and ammunition on City-owned property.

A. This chapter’s purpose is to:
1. Protect public safety by protecting vulnerable populations—a high number of people who congregate at sensitive places such as city buildings, city playgrounds, city community centers, and other city public facilities;
2. Enable the public to visit the city’s properties, buildings, and facilities (“city properties”) without fear of endangerment from gun violence or accidental injuries; and
3. Prevent city properties from being used to subsidize activities that can endanger public safety and health.
B. To achieve these important and substantial governmental interests, the city council seeks to ensure that city properties:
1. Do not create any risk that the public and the city employees at those locations will suffer harm from gun violence or accidental injuries;
2. Do not draw individuals with firearms to sensitive public places;
3. Do not contribute to the continued, excessive proliferation of weapons and acquisition of firearms far beyond the numbers necessary to meet individuals’ use of firearms for self-defense or sporting purposes;
136 of 895
4. Are not used to facilitate the unlawful purchase of firearms by “straw” purchasers who act as fronts for ineligible purchasers of firearms;
5. Are operated in a manner that protects members of the public from the risk of grave bodily harm or death from gun violence, and accidental injury;
6. Are not used to increase the numbers of people who gain access to firearms to commit violent and unlawful acts, and to harm themselves or others, whether intentionally or by accident; and
7. Are not used to subsidize activities that can endanger public safety and health. (Ord. 5794, § 1, 3-19-2013)
9.25.020 Findings.
The city council finds, determines, and declares that:
A. The national and statewide statistical information available from numerous sources overwhelmingly demonstrates that the incidence of gunshot fatalities and injuries has reached alarming, and thus, unacceptable proportions, as the following examples show.
B. According to the United States Centers for Disease Control, in 2010 in the United States, guns took the lives of thirty-one thousand seventy-six (31,076) people in homicides, suicides, and unintentional shootings. This is the equivalent of more than eighty-five (85) deaths each day and more than three (3) deaths each hour. In the same year, seventy-three thousand five hundred five (73,505) Americans were treated in hospital emergency departments for non-fatal gunshot wounds. In 2010, guns were used in eleven thousand seventy-eight (11,078) homicides in the United States, comprising almost thirty-five (35) percent of all gun deaths, and sixty-eight (68) percent of the sixteen thousand two hundred fifty-nine (16,259) homicides committed in the United States.
C. The United States Department of Justice, Bureau of Justice Statistics, under the category of Firearms and Crime Statistics, reports that in 2010, four hundred fifteen thousand three (415,003) victims of violent crimes stated that they faced an offender with a firearm. In 2011, four hundred sixty-seven thousand three hundred twenty-one (467,321) victims of violent crimes stated that they faced an offender with a firearm.
D. The Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research reports that young people in the United States are at risk for being both victims and perpetrators of firearm-related violence. In 2007, more than four thousand nine hundred (4,900) firearm-related homicide victims were age twenty-four (24) and younger. In this same age group, almost two thousand (2,000) adolescents and young adults committed suicide with a firearm.
E. The Johns Hopkins Center for Gun Policy and Research also reports that firearms are the most common weapon used in intimate partner homicides.
F. According to Death Statistics prepared by the California Department of Health, Center for Health Statistics, over the last decade (2000-2010), a total of eleven thousand six hundred seventy-five (11,675) Los Angeles County residents lost their lives due to firearm-related injuries. In 2010, two hundred eightyone (281) suicides and five hundred two (502) homicides were due to firearms. 137 of 895 G. A notable increase in random acts of mayhem and violence using firearms has occurred throughout the United States, California, and Southern California:
1. On April 2, 2012, seven (7) people were killed and three (3) people injured in a mass shooting at Oikos University in Oakland, California.
2. On July 20, 2012, twelve (12) people were killed and fifty-eight (58) people were wounded at a mass shooting in a movie theater in Aurora, Colorado.
3. On December 14, 2012, twenty-seven (27) people, including twenty (20) children, were killed with a firearm during a mass shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. The perpetrator used a collection of firearms lawfully acquired by his mother to shoot her and the other victims.
4. On January 29, 2013, an innocent teenage bystander—who had sung in a choir at President Obama’s inauguration nine (9) days earlier—was shot and killed in a Chicago park in broad daylight by a youth who was aiming at someone else. These shootings of innocent bystanders are common throughout the nation and subject ordinary citizens and their families to serious risk of death and serious injury when using public facilities.
5. On February 3, 2013, a former officer of the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) went on a systematic revenge rampage shooting, killing relatives of members of that police department. The shooter had a vendetta against the LAPD. Scarce police resources had to be devoted to protecting members of the LAPD who themselves were thereby diverted from performing critically important public safety duties. The pursuit of the suspect and the protection of the members of the public, as the shooter fled through multiple counties, consumed additional resources of police agencies throughout the region and terrorized numerous citizens, police officers, and their families.
6. On February 19, 2013, a 20 year-old part-time community college student in Tustin, California, shot to death a young woman in his Orange County home, and then he went on an early morning shooting spree, killing four (4) people and wounding others.
7. On February 26, 2013, two (2) police officers in Santa Cruz, California, were shot and killed while investigating a complaint of sexual assault. The perpetrator had lived and worked in several different California towns before locating to Santa Cruz a short time before the attack. The incident could have occurred in any of these towns, making it clear that no community is insulated from random firearms violence—which exacts a deadly and unpredictable toll not only on citizen victims, but also on the police officers charged with protecting them.
8. On February 26, 2013, one teenager fatally shot another teenage high school student on the grounds of an elementary school near San Leandro, California, when the victim allegedly refused to make good on a five-dollar ($5.00) bet.
138 of 895
H. Whenever guns and ammunition are present, even when they are being handled by knowledgeable and conscientious individuals, a danger of accidental shootings—causing injury or death —arises. According to the United States Centers for Disease Control, in 2010, unintentional firearm injuries caused the deaths of six hundred six (606) people. From 2005-2010, almost three thousand eight hundred (3,800) people in the U.S. died from unintentional shootings. Over one thousand three hundred (1,300) victims of unintentional shootings for the period 2005-2010 were under twenty-five (25) years of age. These recent incidents illustrate the problem’s severity:
1. On January 19, 2013, at a “Gun Appreciation Day” gun show in Medina, Ohio, a 62 year-old man was shot in the arm when a firearms dealer accidentally discharged a gun he had purchased from an attendee. On the same day, at the Indy 1500 Gun and Knife Show in Indianapolis, Indiana, a man accidentally shot his hand as he unloaded a firearm. Also on the same day, at the Dixie Gun and Knife Show in Raleigh, NC, three (3) people were injured when a 12-gauge shotgun filled with “bird shot” accidentally discharged.
2. On February 27, 2013, a public school employee in Van, Texas, was accidentally shot and wounded during a school district sponsored handgun safety class.
I. While government at all levels has a substantial interest in protecting the public from firearm related harm and death, local governments have the predominant obligation to do so. The city council, therefore, has a particular concern and responsibility to ensure that it protects public health and safety, especially of the public when on city properties.
J. The city owns and operates many different public facilities which are sensitive places widely patronized by the public, including seniors and children. In addition to buildings housing its officials and employees where the public must come to conduct business with the city, the city operates numerous public facilities that provide public services at those locations. The city has forty-seven (47) parks and recreation facilities which include four (4) community centers (two (2) senior centers and two (2) centers for all ages), one (1) golf course, three (3) soccer fields, and sixteen (16) ball fields. In addition, the city operates eight (8) public libraries, a youth center, and an emergency shelter. Locations such as these are where a large number of youth and adults congregate, making them appealing for someone intending to inflict a high number of casualties. The city also owns and operates nine (9) fire stations and numerous Glendale Water and Power facilities. The city has a critically important interest in protecting these users of its public facilities, and its employees, from gun violence and injuries.
K. The city also owns and operates the Glendale Civic which is used for many different civic events attended by the public. A thrice-yearly gun show there draws more than a thousand (1,000) people from the Southern California area. The civic auditorium not only is right across the street from another sensitive place— Glendale Community College which has sixteen thousand (16,000) students— but also is within one thousand (1,000) feet of College View School, a public school providing K-12 instruction to students with special needs operated by the Glendale Unified School District. The gun show attracts attendees who are allowed under state law to bring their own weapons to the gun show as long as the weapons are checked at the entrance. (Penal Code section 27340(b).) The city’s property could thus draw individuals who are more prone to have and use firearms, and thereby expose young, vulnerable K-12 and community college students to increased danger. 139 of 895
L. In addition, the city has been promoting and marketing a variety of other uses of the civic auditorium that are likely to be incompatible with its use for the gun shows—which occupy the civic auditorium’s upper floor and lower floor, virtually the entire facility.
M. The city council has authority over the management and control of city properties, and it may regulate, by ordinance, the manner in which the city’s properties are accessed and used by members of the public to ensure that city properties are not used in a way to create an additional risk of serious harm from firearms violence or accidental injury.
N. As of February, 2013, eighteen (18) federal firearms license holders are in the city, including one (1) pawnbroker, two (2) manufacturers, and fifteen (15) firearms dealers. Further, an additional nineteen (19) persons have federal firearms licenses, issued for collectors of curios and relics. These collectors are permitted to sell firearms. In total, thirty-seven (37) federal firearms license holders are in the city. Glendale has four (4) retail firearm stores.
O. Glendale has three (3) neighboring cities, all situated next to Glendale’s corporate limits:
1. In the City of Pasadena, as of February, 2013, there are five (5) federal firearms licenses issued to two (2) retail firearms dealers and three (3) pawnbrokers dealing in firearms. Pasadena has five (5) retail firearm stores.
2. In the City of Burbank, as of February, 2013, there are thirteen (13) federal firearms licenses issued to eleven (11) firearms dealers and two (2) to manufacturers. Burbank has five (5) retail firearm stores.
3. In the City of Los Angeles, as of March, 2013, there are eighteen (18) retail firearm stores.
P. In Los Angeles County, three hundred sixty-one (361) federal firearms licenses have been issued, in addition to eight hundred fifty-seven (857) federal firearms licenses that have been issued to collectors of curios and relics.
Q. Accordingly, given the number of federal firearm license holders authorized to sell firearms and ammunition in neighboring cities and in Los Angeles County, residents of Glendale have a wealth of opportunities to view and purchase firearms for self-defense or for sporting purposes, and the city’s preclusion of such opportunities at a thrice-yearly gun show conducted at the city’s civic auditorium has a de minimis effect on the ability to purchase firearms for those purposes. Many of the dealers at the Glendale Civic Auditorium gun show are from the Southern California region already.
R. Prohibiting the possession or sale of firearms, or ammunition, or both, on city properties will have the following beneficial effects, among others:
1. It will enhance public health and safety by contributing to the reduction in the presence of firearms and the potential for gunshot fatalities and injuries on city property;
2. It will increase the confidence of members of the public that they are not at risk of injury from firearms when they seek to use city properties; and
140 of 895
3. It will help to ensure the safety of the general public and specifically children, who are among the most vulnerable in our society.
S. The California Supreme Court has ruled that state law does not preempt local laws banning the possession and sale of firearms and ammunition on local government’s property. In Nordyke v. King (2002) 27 Cal.4th 875, the Supreme Court upheld an Alameda County ordinance banning the possession of firearms and ammunition on county owned property and in Great Western Shows, Inc. v.
County of Los Angeles (2002) 27 Cal.4th 853, the Supreme Court upheld a Los Angeles County ordinance prohibiting all sales of firearms and ammunition on county property. These rulings uphold the city council’s legal ability to ban the possession and sale of firearms and ammunition on city properties.
T. Prohibiting the sale or possession of firearms and ammunition on city properties does not burden the rights of persons to engage in self-defense or sporting activities and does not prevent persons from purchasing firearms at retail outlets in the city and throughout the region.
U. For the foregoing reasons, the city council, in its proprietary capacity, wishes to keep city properties free from firearms and ammunition, including the purchase and sale of guns and ammunition, with the exceptions set forth in sections 9.25.050 and 9.25.060 of this chapter.

CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM
Report: Authorization to Initiate a Referral Incentive Program for eligible sworn and nonsworn employees of the Glendale Police Department and a Signing Bonus Program for eligible lateral police officers and lateral dispatchers.
1. Motion authorizing the Glendale Police Department to implement a Referral Incentive Program for eligible sworn and non-sworn employees of the Glendale Police Department and a Signing Bonus Program for eligible lateral police officers and lateral dispatchers.
COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Consent Item
Approved for November 14, 2023 calendar
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Glendale Police Department is experiencing unprecedented difficulty in locating and securing qualified candidates for various sworn and non-sworn positions in the Department. The Department seeks to offer an Incentive Program whereby eligible employees in the Department can receive a monetary bonus for bringing qualified applicants to the Department, as well as a signing bonus for lateral officers and dispatchers.
145 of 895
2 b 8
RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the Glendale Police Department to implement a Referral Incentive Program for eligible sworn and non-sworn employees of the Glendale Police Department, and a Signing Bonus Program for lateral police officers and lateral dispatchers.
ANALYSIS
The Police Department is currently dealing with the industry-wide difficulty of hiring police officers and other non-sworn staff. Despite the Department’s increased efforts, we currently have 15 vacant officer positions, and expect to lose more through retirements and attrition. Similarly, there are currently 22 vacancies in non-sworn positions such as Dispatch and Custody. This struggle is not unique to the City of Glendale; agencies nationwide have felt the effects of a perception shift against careers in law enforcement.
As a result, competition between agencies to find highly qualified individuals in a shrinking pool of applicants has increased tremendously.
Many local agencies are offering employee hiring incentives in an effort to attract candidates. LAPD has offered a hiring (signing) bonus of $10,000 and Inglewood Police Department is offering $40,000. South Gate and Beverly Hills each offer $20,000. In northern California, the City of Alameda recently made headlines by offering a $75,000 hiring bonus for police officers.
Another approach that agencies are employing is a recruitment incentive whereby current employees receive incentive pay for their role in recruiting candidates. Some agencies pay half of the bonus upon hire, with the remaining half upon academy graduation or completion of a probationary period (1 year for police officers.) Other agencies (Anaheim PD) pay the full incentive upon hiring.
Referral Program
Under the Referral Program, any current full-time salaried GPD employee who refers an applicant to the Department can receive up to $5,000 (to be paid as income during a regular pay period). The referring employee will submit a form via the City’s Intranet stating that they have referred a potential applicant. That information will be maintained by Human Resources. When a new employee is hired, HR will check to see if they were referred by a qualifying employee. If so, the referring employee will receive $2,500. If the new hire completes their probationary period, the referring employee will receive another $2,500.
The following restrictions will apply to the Program:
1. Eligible employees must be full-time salaried Police Department employee (sworn or non-sworn).
2. Eligible employees must be employed by the City at the time the Incentive is due in order to receive it. For example, if a referring employee retires before the applicant gets hired, they will not be eligible to receive any Incentive. Likewise, if a referring employee 146 of 895
3 b 8
retires between the time of hire and the time the new hire passes probation, the referring employee will only be eligible to receive the first $2,500.
3. The Incentive does not apply to any referral resulting from working a recruitment event.
4. If two or more GPD employees refer the same person, a determination will be made by PSB as to which employee receives the Incentive. The determination will not necessarily be based on which employee submitted the referral first.
5. The following positions are not eligible for the Incentive (an employee’s position when the referral is made will be used to determine eligibility):
• Police
• Chief Command Staff
• PSB Lieutenant overseeing personnel/hiring
• PSB Sergeant overseeing personnel/hiring
• Background Investigators
• Any hiring manager where the applicant is applying for a job in that hiring manager’s unit/division.
Such an internal referral incentive will add to the GPD’s existing recruitment strategies and create a sense of shared responsibility for spreading the word about the benefits of working for the City of Glendale.
Signing Bonus Program
Under the Signing Bonus Program, full-time lateral police officers and lateral dispatchers (currently employed by another agency) who are hired will receive up to $20,000. The first payment of $10,000 will be made upon hire, the second payment of $10,000 will be paid upon successful completion of probation. The bonus will be paid as income within a regular pay period.
Such a signing bonus will serve to incentivize experienced police officers and dispatchers (who already possess training and P.O.S.T. certification) to apply to the Glendale Police Department.
STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
Not applicable.
FISCAL IMPACT
The costs for the Referral Program and the Signing Bonus Program are estimated to be $200,000. The Police Department budget can absorb this cost and therefore no new appropriation is being requested at this time. The funding is outlined below:

CITY OF GLENDALE, CALIFORNIA
REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL
AGENDA ITEM
Report: 2023 Electric Rates Cost of Service Analysis (COSA).
1. Ordinance Establishing Electric Rates for Glendale Water and Power Customers.
COUNCIL ACTION
Item Type: Action Item
Approved for November 14, 2023 calendar
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Glendale Water and Power’s (GWP) last electric rate increases for Glendale customers was implemented five years ago in 2018. During the recent budget planning process and cost of service analysis, GWP staff has determined that the projections showed that the revenues collected from the current electric rates will not be sufficient to fully recover the cost of service provided to the customers by the electric operations and fund the necessary capital improvements. The primary causes of the deficits are the increasing cost of wholesale purchased power; materials, equipment, and labor; variable fuel prices; decline in revenues; renewable energy projects; and other inflationary factors such as higher interest rates for debt service.
GWP is proposing two electric rate increase options for City Council to consider.
Option 1 is a three-year increase averaging 14.8%, 11.3% and 11.3% that will take effect January 1, 2024, July 1, 2024, and July 1, 2025. Option 2 is a four-year increase averaging 13.6%, 9%, 9% and 9% that will take effect January 1, 2024, July 1, 2024, July 1, 2025, and July 1, 2026; respectively. The rate adjustments will fund the Grayson Repowering Project, as well as provide partial funding for the Scholl Canyon Biogas Renewable Generation Project, City Solar projects, Glendale’s commitment to building and fleet electrification, and to cover the general increases in costs of, wholesale purchased power, renewable energy projects, and fuel.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopt Option 1 of the proposed rate plans as it represents the lowest total increase to customers and the lowest debt service of the two options. Approval of these rate increases ensures that the utility’s financial obligations are sufficiently met so as to allow the utility to issue bonds to fund the approved capital projects, and to implement adjustments in equity in the individual rate classifications per Proposition 26 requirements.
150 of 895
2 d 8
Adoption of either option will enable the issuance of bonds in three tranches reasonably coinciding with the electric rate adoption schedule. Currently, bond rates for the adoption period are expected to fall within the range of 4.5% - 5.5%. Staff will be returning to Council for authorization of the issuance of bonds in the near future.
Analysis
There are two components in GWP electric rate structure: a base rate component and the adjustment components. The base rate is designed to recover the direct and indirect costs of providing the infrastructure to serve local customers. Such costs include, but are not limited to, those associated with the purchase of power, with transmission and distribution, with customer service, and with administration. The base rate should also include a reasonable rate of return (RoR) on investments. The RoR is to effectuate a transfer to the City's General Fund, to establish sufficient reserves for ongoing capital improvement projects that ensure the reliability and integrity of the system’s infrastructure, and to upgrade the generation assets to improve the cost structure and competitiveness of the energy resources. The base rate structure is designed through a cost-of-service study that equitably associates the rates to the costs of providing electric services to various customer classes.
The cost adjustment charges are used to manage the difference between projected costs in the most recent COSA and actual costs for specific GWP accounts, market conditions, and/or regulatory impacts. The GWP electric rates have three cost adjustment charges:
• Regulatory Adjustment Charge (RAC) - adjusts for the variances from projected regulatory compliance costs and the actual costs.
• Energy Cost Adjustment Charge (ECAC) - adjusts for the variations from the projected costs of fuel and purchased power and the actual costs. • Revenue Decoupling Charge (RDC) - adjusts for the differences between actual and projected sales volumes.
The cost adjustment charges are adjusted administratively every six months based upon a City Council adopted formula that is fixed in the Electric Rate Ordinance.
The cost adjustment charges have increased over the years to account for the significantly lower electric sales and higher natural gas and power purchase costs than were projected in the 2018 COSA.
Recent Financial Performance of the Electric Retail Operations Total retail revenue is made up of two components, the rates charged, and the volume sold. The electric retail consumption has declined 4.8% from fiscal year 2017-2018 compared to fiscal year 2022-2023. Over time, however, the cost to service the customers has grown. The net impact is reflected in the declining net profits as shown in the table below. Assuming the same revenue base with no rate changes or insufficient rate increases, it is projected that the retail operations will continue to experience net losses.
151 of 895
3 d 8
GWP is proposing to increase the rates currently charged for electric service. GWP’s electric rates were last increased in 2018 which published a five-year electric rate plan for GWP customers covering fiscal year 2019 through 2023.
Since 2018, there have been significant changes, new mandates, new investments, and approved projects which necessitated a new Electric cost of service analysis (COSA) to keep the utility financially stable over the next three to five years for the period of fiscal year 2024 through fiscal year 2028.
On July 1, 2019, GWP entered into a Professional Services Agreement with NewGen Strategies and Solutions, LLC. to provide an electric cost of service analysis to calculate the electric rates needed to support the Grayson Repower Project, the Scholl Biogas Renewable Generation project, GWP’s Solar Design Built program and other annual capital improvement projects, such as the 4kV to 12 kV distribution system upgrades.
The table below shows the results of the COSA. In order to meet the debt coverage ratio of 1.1x, the electric utility needs to increase the rates an average of 14.8% in year one, and increase the rates an average of 11.3% in years two and three. The debt service coverage of 1.1x is the minimum coverage allowed for the utility in the bond covenants. The first year increase will also allow the utility to increase its cash reserves above the required 300 days cash on hand. Having sufficient cash reserves on hand is recommended by the rating agencies and results in a higher bond rating.
NewGen has calculated GWP’s revenue requirements and has presented two options for City Council’s consideration. Option 1 is a series of average increases over a threeyear period of 14.8%, 11.3% and 11.3% effective January 1, 2024, July 1, 2024, and July 1, 2025; respectively. The total compounded average rate for Option 1 is 42.2%.
The average increases for the specific customer classes are shown in the table on next page.

Option 2 is a series of average increases over a four-year period of 13.6%, 9%, 9% and 9% effective January 1, 2024, July 1, 2024, July 1, 2025 and July 1, 2026; respectively. The total compounded average rate for Option 2 is 47.1%, which is 4.9% higher than Option 1. This is one of the reasons why staff does not recommend Option
2. The average increases for the specific customer classes are shown in the table below.
The rate adjustments will ensure the electric utility has sufficient funds to pay the debt service on the bonds that will be issued over the next three years.
Bond funding to be used for the Grayson Repowering:
The Grayson Repowering Project is underway. City Council authorized the contract for the demolition which is currently in progress. Also, in December 2022, Council authorized the purchase of three Wartsila engines and associated power island equipment and facilities in the not-to-exceed amount of $170,000,000 subject to City Council’s authorization for financing. Staff has further negotiated the the Wartsila engines procurement contract at a lesser amount which is being presented to the City Council for approval in a separate report dated November 14, 2023.
Bond funding to be used for the Biogas Renewable Generation Project:
The Biogas Renewable Generation Project which is currently underway with construction set to commence within the next few weeks. A portion of the anticipated bond financing will be utilized for the Biogas Renewable Generation Project including the purchase of the equipment for the project facilities.
Solar Projects on City Facilities:
The City Council is being presented with a separate Report from the General Manager of GWP, also dated November 14, 2023, for six proposed solar projects at City owned facilities. Bond funding will be used for these projects.

Rate Increases – A Critical Path:
The proposed electric rate increases is necessary to support the City in the issuance of the bonds for the Council requested Solar Projects, and to complete the Biogas and the Grayson Repower Projects (Projects). Without the rate increases the City will not qualify for the rating required to issue the bonds; the bonds are necessary to complete the Projects and will not be issued without the revenue to support the bond payments.
Without the rate increases and without the bonds the Projectswill not be built, and GWP and certain City functions will be jeapordized. The consequential impacts on the City would be real, significant and long-lasting. These include, but are not limited to, • Inability to supply the City’s electric load
• Lack of reserve capacity to serve electric load into the future • Inability to fund renewable projects, or invest in or participate in renewable projects based on GWP revenue
• Inability to meet projected 2035 and other renewable portfolio goals/standards • Inability to complete GWP Fund Transfer and commensurate impacts on City Services.
• Breach of statutory and contractural obligations to FERC, State of California,
SCPPA, BAASA
• Increases in rates well beyond the current rate increase requested due to the need to purchase additional transmission capacity (if possible), and need to obtain supply from private or public generators overwhich City does not have control.
• Potential loss of Glendale publicly owned utility due to lack of revenue • Existing contract termination damages
• Potential to be assessed fines by Federal regulators (FERC)
STAKEHOLDERS/OUTREACH
GWP held three community meetings on October 18th, 19th and 25th, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT
Option 1 will increase the revenues by approximately $108 million over the next three years. Option 2 will increase the revenues by approximately $113 million over the next four years.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Pursuant to California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) CEQA Guidelines Section 15273, CEQA does not apply to the establishment, modification, structuring, restructuring, or approval of rates, tolls, fares, and other charges by public agency which the public agency finds are for the purpose of (1) meeting operating expenses including employee wage rates and fringe benefits, (2) purchasing or leasing supplies equipment or materials, (4) meeting financial reserve needs and requirements, for obtaining funds for capital projects necessary to maintain service within existing service areas, or (5) obtaining funds necessary to maintain such intra-city transfers are authorized by City Charter.
As set forth in this report, the electric rate increases recommended for approval are for the express purposes of meeting existing operating expenses of GWP, purchasing 154 of 895 6 d 8
supplies, equipment or materials necessary to operate the utility, funding certain capital improvements necessary to supply electricity to the residents and businesses within Glendale’s service area, and to ensure the Glendale City Charter authorized intra-city transfer can be maintained.
CEQA Guidelines Section 15273(c) requires the City Council to incorporate written findings in the record of any proceeding in which an exemption under this section is claimed setting forth with specificity the basis for the claim of exemption. The required findings are set forth in the Ordinance Establishing Electric Rates for Glendale Water and Power Customers accompanying this staff report.
CAMPAIGN DISCLOSURE
Not Applicable.
ALTERNATIVES
Alternative 1: Adopt Option 1 recommended by staff and implement a five-year series of system average electric rate increases of 14.8%, 11.3%, 11.3%, 0.0%,
0.0%.
Alternative 2: Adopt Option 2 proposed by staff and implement a five-year series of system average electric rate increases of 13.6%, 9.0%, 9.0%, 9.0%, 0.0%.
Alternative 3: Do not adjust the rates per staff recommendation and maintain the current electric rates which will result in the cancellation of Council-approved projects such as the Grayson Repowering Project and will significantly reduce GWP’s ability to implement key system upgrades and distributed energy resource efforts aligned with Council-adopted Clean Energy Resolution. It is reasonable to forecast that the stoppage of the Grayson Repowering Project would have dire impacts to GWP’s ability to meet its energy obligations to its customers.
Alternative 4: Consider any other alternative not proposed by staff.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Introduction
In 2023, NewGen Strategies and Solutions, LLC (NewGen) was retained by Glendale Water and Power (GWP) to perform an Electric Cost of Service (COS) and Rate Design Study (Study). As part of this Study, NewGen’s Project Team (Project Team) developed a five-year financial forecast including revenue requirements, expected debt issuances, and rate changes from fiscal year (FY) 2024 through FY 2028 (Study Period). The goal was to evaluate and identify the optimal combination of debt and rate (i.e., cash) funded portions of the capital program while maintaining financial stability over the five-year planning period.
This report contains five sections as follows:
Section 1 – Provides an introduction and brief background. Section 2 – Discusses the development of the revenue requirement. Section 3 – Provides the COS results.
Section 4 – Presents the proposed electric rates.
Section 5 – Summarizes conclusions and recommendations.
Utility Description
GWP is a municipal utility that provides electric and water service to the community of Glendale, California. GWP is governed by the City Council with input from the GWP Commission. The GWP Commission is an advisory commission that provides recommendations to the City Council regarding changes in policy, improvements to the system, and financing of improvements. The GWP Commission’s five members are appointed and serve a four-year term with a three-term limit. GWP’s last Electric Utility Rate Study was presented to the City Council in 2018 and rate increases were approved for each year from 2019 through 2023.
The Electric Utility is projected to serve an average of 90,565 retail electric customers with average annual retail sales of 979,104 megawatt-hours (MWh) of electricity during the Test Year, or on average over the Study Period.
The Electric Utility provides power to their customers through a combination of GWP-owned generation, purchase power contracts, and market purchases. Currently, GWP operates the Grayson Power Plant and plans to repower the plant, upgrading from boilers and steam turbines to Wärtsilä internal combustion engines and a large battery. GWP also has various purchase power contracts for renewable energy. As of 2022, GWP’s power supply was 35.3% renewable.
1 GWP has a goal of 50% renewable resources by
2030.
The Electric Utility transmission system consists of approximately 57 miles of 34 kilovolt (kV) and 69 kV line, of which 27 miles is underground. The Electric Utility distribution system consists of approximately 503 miles of line, of which approximately 50% is underground. 1 GWP Annual Report 2021–2022

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
2 GWP Rate Study Final Report
Cost of Service and Rate Design Process Overview
The COS and rate design process includes five steps as follows:
1. Determination of the Revenue Requirement – This first step examines the utility’s financial needs and determines the amount of revenue that must be generated from rates. For municipal utilities, the revenue requirement is determined on a “cash basis.” A “cash basis” analysis examines the cash obligations of the utility such as operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, debt service, cash funded capital projects, and City Transfers. Rates are set such that the utility can pay its bills on an annual going-forward basis.
In preparing our analysis of the electric rates and developing the revenue requirement, NewGen relied upon GWP’s historical audited data, the 2024 Budget,records of operation, customer billing data, and other detailed information and data compiled and provided by GWP’s management and staff.
2. Functionalization and Sub-functionalization of Costs – The revenue requirement is then assigned to the particular function or sub-function of the utility. Electric utilities like GWP typically have power supply, transmission, distribution, and customer services functions. Power Supply sub-functions may include utility-owned generation or purchased power from contracts or the market. Distribution sub-functions may include distribution infrastructure by voltage, metering, billing, collection, etc.
Customer sub-functions include billing and collections, customer service, meter reading, etc.
3. Classification of Costs – Once costs are functionalized, they are then classified based on their underlying nature. Of particular importance is the determination of fixed versus variable costs. Fixed costs remain a financial obligation of the utility regardless of the amount of energy produced whereas variable costs fluctuate based on system energy requirements. Further, fixed and variable costs are associated with utility requirements to meet customer demand, energy, and customer service needs.
4. Allocation of Costs – Once costs are classified, they are then allocated to the various customer classes.
Allocation factors align with cost classification. Therefore, demand-related costs are allocated on measures of class demand such as class contribution to the system coincident peak (CP). Energy allocation factors are based on the amount of energy consumed by customers. Customer allocation factors are based on the number of customers.
These first four steps in the COS process are depicted in the figure below.

5. Rate Design – The fifth and final step is rate design, which translates COS results into rates for each customer class.
Revenue Requirement
NewGen utilized the 2022 actual expenses account detail provided by GWP to develop the base year for the financial forecast model and subsequent projections. The 2022 Expenses were used to project the 2023 year-end totals, then projected for the Study Period 2024 through 2028. After review and discussion with GWP staff, the Project Team adjusted the 2022 Expenses data to account for any unusual or onetime expenses. Projected non-recurring expenses or revenues were identified and incorporated in the financial forecast, as appropriate. A key input to the financial forecast model was the power supply cost projections provided by GWP and Ascend Analytics. Power supply represents the majority of the total costs to provide electric service to retail customers.
Based on the financial forecast model, NewGen developed a Test Year Revenue Requirement. The Test Year Revenue Requirement reflects GWP’s total cost of providing electric utility services to various rate classes that must be recovered through retail rate revenues. The Test Year Revenue Requirement was calculated by developing an average of GWP’s Electric Utility costs for the Study Period. Based on the Test Year, NewGen calculated the difference between the projected revenues and revenue requirements over the Study Period. Table ES-1 summarizes the forecasted operating expenses and revenue requirements for the Electric Utility over the Study Period. The Test Year Revenue Requirement of $306,802,972 is the five-year average of the annual revenue requirements and is shown in Table ES-1.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
4 GWP Rate Study Final Report
NewGen has included the contribution to GWP’s cash reserves to increase the Test Year Revenue Requirement in Table ES-1. The purpose of this contribution is to meet GWP reserve and debt service coverage policies. The Test Year projected revenues are under collecting by approximately 33.3%.
If GWP does not institute rate increases, there will not be sufficient funds to maintain operations and fund the repowering of the Grayson facility.
Cost of Service Results
The COS analysis translates the Electric Utility’s Test Year Revenue Requirement of $306,802,972 into a revenue requirement by customer class. The Test Year Revenue Requirement is functionalized or “unbundled” into four functions of the system (i.e., Power Supply, Transmission, Distribution, and Customer Service), then classified as customer-, demand-, or energy-related, and finally allocated to each of the customer classes as shown in Table ES-2. The result provides a COS revenue requirement for each customer class, which are then compared to the projected revenues for the Study Period to determine the class rate changes.

(3) Assumes Energy Cost Adjustment Charge (ECAC), Regulatory Adjustment Charge (RAC), and the Revenue Decoupling Charge (RDC) rates of $0.00 per kWh.
As shown in Table ES-2, overall COS analysis forecasts a 33.3% rate increase to meet the Electric Utility’s revenue requirements. In addition, when evaluated on a customer basis, rate adjustments are required to ensure that each customer is appropriately charged based on their impact to the system.
Based on the financial forecast and COS results, GWP decided to support theirrevenue requirement needs with a combination of rate increases, bond issuances, and use of reserves. GWP set annual retail revenue increases of 14.8% for FY 2024, 11.3% for FY 2025, 11.3% for FY 2026, 0.0% for FY 2027, and 0.0% for FY 2028. These rate increases are necessary to maintain the reserve fund balance at adequate levels.
With GWP’s rate increases, the ending balance in FY 2028 increases from the estimated $208 million to $217 million, equivalent to 295 days cash on hand. The cash reserve balances resulting from the proposed rate increases are adequate based on industry practices and provide GWP flexibility and financial stability in supporting future operating and capital needs. The reserves also provide GWP with the flexibility to address changes in construction, schedule, and financing related costs (e.g., the debt interest rates) for 173 of 895

the proposed Grayson repowering project, as it is currently forecast. In addition, these cash reserves are utilized for multiple purposes at the utility, such as working capital, rate stabilization (i.e., reducing rate volatility and impacts), and capital improvements.
Rate Design
Rate design includes proposed rates to collect the additional revenue goals. The GWP revenue increases were not applied equally to each customer class, as the COS results support a higher rate increase for Residential and Small Business customers in order to gradually align those rates with the COS. NewGen recommends an increase in Residential rates of 18.6% in year 1 and 14% in years 2 and 3 to align rates more closely with the COS results over the three-year period.
Based on the forecasted expenses to operate the Electric Utility from FY 2024 through FY 2028, NewGen recommends rate adjustments over three phases rather than five to align with the proposed Grayson repowering schedule and to maintain financial metrics. Table ES-3 shows the revenues for each phase based on projected load. The load growth was provided by GWP and averages 0.8% per year. The total revenues reflect rate increases and load growth. If the load growth is removed, the increases in annual revenues are in line with the recommended rate changes. The results of the gradual rate change and revenue generated in each phase are provided in Table ES-3.

INTRODUCTION
In 2023, NewGen Strategies and Solutions, LLC (NewGen) was retained by Glendale Water and Power (GWP) to perform an Electric Cost of Service (COS) and Rate Design Study (Study). As part of this Study, GWP requested that NewGen’s Project Team (Project Team) forecast revenue requirements and rates from Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 through FY 2028 (Study Period). GWP’s FY runs from July 1 through June 30.
All data contained in this report represents the GWP FY unless otherwise stated. This report describes the analysis performed for the Electric Utility and makes projections of the rates charged to the electric customers. This report consists of five sections and an Executive Summary.
Following the Executive Summary, this section provides the introduction for the Study. Section 2 discusses the development of the revenue requirement through FY 2028. Section 3 discusses the COS process and the resulting revenue requirement by customer class. Section 4 discusses the recommended rates required to recover the estimated revenue requirement. Section 5 provides our conclusions and recommendations.
Regular reviews of the performance of a utility’s rates are an integral part of any utility’s management, and failure to monitor the Electric Utility’s rates can result in the need for significant rate actions. Our Project Team recommends that, going forward, GWP continue to regularly monitor and review the performance of their adopted rates and perform rate adjustments in a timely manner to preserve the financial integrity of the Electric Utility.
The analysis performed by NewGen was designed to consider foreseeable, known, and measurable adjustments during the Study Period. The goal was to construct a financial planning tool for GWP to gain an understanding of the key issues and required rate, debt, and capital decisions facing the Electric Utility over the Study Period. A critical benefit of the financial planning tool is the ability to quantify the impacts of decisions made today regarding debt issuances and rate changes required in the future. As with any forecast, assumptions were made and GWP should note that the actual expenses and revenues generated each year may differ from the projected expenses and revenues outlined in this report due to unforeseen changes such as system growth, inflation, etc.
Background
GWP is a municipal utility that provides electric and water service to the community of Glendale, California. GWP is governed by the City Council with input from the GWP Commission. The GWP Commission is an advisory commission that provides recommendations to the City Council regarding changes in policy, improvements to the system, and financing of improvements. The GWP Commission’s five members are appointed and serve a four-year term with a three-term limit. GWP’s last Electric Utility Rate Study was presented to the City Council in 2018 and rate increases were approved for each year from 2019 through 2023.
The Electric Utility is projected to serve an average of 90,565 retail electric customers with average annual retail sales of 979,104 megawatt-hours (MWh) of electricity during the Test Year, or on average over the Study Period.

1-2 GWP Rate Study Final Report
The Electric Utility provides power to their customers through a combination of GWP-owned generation, purchase power contracts, and market purchases. Currently, GWP operates the Grayson Power Plant and plans to repower the plant, upgrading from boilers and steam turbines to Wärtsilä internal combustion engines and a large battery. GWP also has various purchase power contracts for renewable energy. As of 2022, GWP’s power supply was 35.3% renewable.
2 GWP has a goal of 50% renewable resources by
2030.
GWP’s capital plan includes the proposed repowering of the Grayson Power Plant for approximately $514 million. This project would be funded entirely by debt.
The Electric Utility transmission system consists of approximately 57 miles of 34 kilovolt (kV) and 69 kV line, of which 27 miles is underground. The Electric Utility distribution system consists of approximately 503 miles of line, of which approximately 50% is underground.
Cost of Service and Rate Design Process Overview
The COS and rate design process includes five steps as follows:
1. Determination of the Revenue Requirement – This first step examines the utility’s financial needs and determines the amount of revenue that must be generated from rates. For municipal utilities, the revenue requirement is determined on a “cash basis.” A “cash basis” analysis examines the cash obligations of the utility such as operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, debt service, cash funded capital projects, and City Transfers. Rates are set such that the utility can pay its bills on an annual going-forward basis.
2. Functionalization and Sub-functionalization of Costs – The revenue requirement is then assigned to the particular function or sub-function of the utility. Electric utilities like GWP typically have power supply, transmission, distribution, and customer services functions. Power Supply sub-functions may include utility-owned generation or purchased power from contracts or the market. Distribution sub-functions may include distribution infrastructure by voltage, metering, billing, collection, etc.
Customer sub-functions include billing and collections, customer service, meter reading, etc.
3. Classification of Costs – Once costs are functionalized, they are then classified based on their underlying nature. Of particular importance is the determination of fixed versus variable costs. Fixed costs remain a financial obligation of the utility regardless of the amount of energy produced whereas variable costs fluctuate based on system energy requirements. Further, fixed and variable costs are associated with utility requirements to meet customer demand, energy, and customer service needs.
4. Allocation of Costs – Once costs are classified, they are then allocated to the various customer classes.
Allocation factors align with cost classification. Therefore, demand-related costs are allocated on measures of class demand such as class contribution to the system coincident peak (CP). Energy allocation factors are based on the amount of energy consumed by customers. Customer allocation factors are based on the number of customers.

REVENUE REQUIREMENTS
Developing the Test Year Revenue Requirement is the first step in the COS and rate design process, as shown in Figure 1-1. The Test Year Revenue Requirement for the Electric Utility was based on the average expenses for the Study Period with adjustments for unusual or one-time expenses, the Capital Improvement Program (CIP), existing debt amortization schedules, projected debt issuances, and forecasted escalation assumptions and factors. NewGen developed a five-year financial forecast for the Study Period. The average revenue requirement for the five-year Study Period was used as the Test Year Revenue Requirement and represented all costs that must be recovered through the Electric Utility’s rates. The Test Year Revenue Requirement serves as a basis for determining the overall level of revenue recovery and provides a foundation for the COS analysis.
Financial Forecast
The financial forecast includes projections of revenues, expenses, capital spending, debt service, and changes in reserves over the five-year Study Period (FY 2024–FY 2028). To develop the financial forecast, NewGen utilized GWP’s 2022 actual expenses, the 2023 Budget, load forecast documents, records of operations, customer billing data, and other detailed information and data compiled and provided by GWP’s management and staff. GWP provided the 2022 actual expenses which were used as the base year in the financial forecast. After review and discussion with GWP staff, the Project Team adjusted the 2022 totals to account for any known and measurable or one-time expenses. Any projected non-recurring expenses or revenues are identified and incorporated in the financial forecast, as appropriate.
To forecast expenses through FY 2028, NewGen used multiple escalation and forecast factors. Specific inflation and customer growth rates were applied to the baseline FY 2023 projected year-end data.
Projected Energy Requirements
The Electric Utility’s forecasted electric consumption is a key driver in projections of expenses and revenues. The load forecast was developed by a separate consultant as part of a compliance filing required by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The forecasted retail electric consumption includes an annual energy growth rate of less than 1% which reflects sales to GWP’s retail customers.

Operations and Maintenance Expenses
The first step in developing the revenue requirement forecast was the creation of the base year O&M expenses. GWP’S historical data and 2023 Budget provide Electric Utility O&M expenses based on five Electric Works Revenue Funds. In discussions with GWP management, NewGen selected the detailed FY 2023 Budget as the base year in the financial forecast for projections of O&M expenses.
Based on the FY 2023 Budget from GWP, NewGen forecast the O&M costs for the Study Period. In addition to the projected other expenses/revenues(including interest income, capital contributions, miscellaneous revenues and sales to other utilities), CIP, debt service projections, and City Transfer, these forecasted O&M expenses supported the development of the Test Year Revenue Requirement. The Test Year Revenue Requirement for the Study Period includes all costs required to operate the utility and ensure financial stability for the Electric Utility.

Power Supply Expenses
Power Supply expenses are the largest portion of the total O&M expenses and are associated with take or pay contracts (i.e., Intermountain Power Plant, Magnolia Power Plant, and Tieton Hydropower), purchased power agreements (i.e., Hoover Hydropower, High Winds Solano, and Skylar Renewable), and spot market purchases to balance GWP’s needs to meet load. The majority of the power supply costs forecast and used in the Study were provided by Ascend Analytics and reviewed by GWP. Additional power supply expenses include fuel costs for GWP-owned generation plants, labor, and other supporting O&M accounts. The tables below summarize the total power supply expenses.

2-4 GWP Rate Study Final Report
Non-Power Supply Expenses
Non-power supply expense accounts, as seen in Table 2-2 (i.e., Administration, Customer Services, and Utility Finance) were forecast to increase at various inflation rates.
Transfer to the City General Fund (City Transfer)
The City Transfer is defined by the City Charter, Article XI, Section 22, which provides:
At the end of each fiscal year an amount equal to twenty-five (25) percent of the operating revenues of the department of Glendale Water and Power for such year, excluding receipts from water or power supplied to other cities or utilities at wholesale rates, shall be transferred from said Glendale Water and Power surplus fund to the general reserve fund; provided, that the council may annually, at or before the time for adopting the general budget for the ensuing fiscal year, reduce said amount or wholly waive such transfer if, in its opinion, such reduction or waver is necessary to ensure the sound financial position of said department of Glendale Water and Power and it shall so declare by resolution.
In the financial forecast and Test Year Revenue Requirement, the City Transfer forecast was provided by GWP.
Debt Service
The debt service represents existing and projected debt service. The existing debt service within the Study Period and Test Year Revenue Requirement includes the 2013 Refunding Bond and 2016 Refunding Bond amortization schedules as provided by GWP.
There were several scenarios considered for issuing new debt. The primary driver of new debt is the repowering of the Grayson Power Plant. The following scenarios were considered.
1. One issuance of $600 million in 2024. $34.0 million average annual debt service.
2. Two issuances of $300 million in 2024 and 2025. $29.0 million average annual debt service.
3. Three issuances of $200 million in 2024, 2025, and 2026. $26.0 million average annual debt service.
4. One issuance of $500 million in 2024. $27.2 million average annual debt service.
5. Three issuances of $166 million in 2024, 2025, and 2026. $21.5 million average annual debt service.
6. Three issuances: $140 million in 2024, $170 million in 2025, and $190 million in 2026. $20.3 million average annual debt service.
Ultimately, GWP decided that $500 million in total debt issuances would be sufficient with expected cash reserves to fund the repowered Grayson Power Plant. The fifth scenario with three issuances of $166 million in 2024, 2025, and 2026 was selected to allow for timely payments to contractors for the Grayson repowering project while also delaying some of the debt service cost impacts and allowing GWP to meet metrics required of the bond such as net income and debt service coverage. The bond issuance for the repowered Grayson Power Plant includes an additional refunding on the 2013 Electric Revenue Bond.
Table 2-5 summarizes the projected debt service for the Electric Utility under the fifth scenario. 183 of 895

Capital Paid from Current Earnings
The Electric Utility capital expenses are identified within the 2023 Budget five-year CIP. The utility utilizes a combination of debt, cash from rate revenues, and cash reserves to finance the capital expenses and upgrades. The proposed debt issuance would fund the Grayson repowering project. The remaining CIP is funded from rate revenues and cash reserves. If the rates are not adjusted, cash reserves must be used to fund a large portion of the annual CIP over the Study Period. The average annual amount of capital expenses funded from current earnings, rate revenues, or cash reservesincluded in the Test Year Revenue 184 of 895

This transfer is represented by a cash inflow to capital from current earnings in FY 2024.
Other Income and Expenses
Other income and expenses represent miscellaneous non-operating revenues or expenses and net $16 million (net revenues) in the Test Year. This amount reflects non-operating revenues, which include sales to other utilities, interest income, and miscellaneous revenues (e.g., late fees, connection fees, etc.).
These net revenues of $16 million reduce the overall Test Year Revenue Requirement.
Revenue Requirement
There are two primary revenue requirement methodologies employed in the utility industry: the cash basis and the utility basis. The primary differences between the cash basis and the utility basis involve the treatment of depreciation, return on invested capital, and debt service. The cash basis, which is the most common method used by municipalities, includes debt service but excludes depreciation and return on invested capital in the revenue requirement determination. The cash basis focuses on meeting the cash demands of the utility. The utility basis most commonly used by private or for-profit utilitiesincludes depreciation and return on invested capital but excludes debt service from the revenue requirement determination.
In this COS analysis, the Project Team utilized the cash basis, as it follows the traditional cash-oriented budgeting practices frequently used by government entities. In addition, the cash basis is generally easier to explain to customers since it attempts to match revenue and expenditures.
NewGen developed the Test Year Revenue Requirement for the five-year Study Period including all costs required to operate the utility and ensure its financial stability. The revenue requirements for each year of the Study Period are shown below. The Test Year Revenue Requirement of $306,802,972 is the fiveyear average of the annual revenue requirements and is shown in Table 2-8. The current rates do not adequately recover the total operating and capital costs by approximately $76.7 million per year. 185 of 895

NewGen has included the contribution to GWP’s cash reserves to increase the Test Year Revenue Requirement shown in Table 2-8. The purpose of this contribution is to meet GWP reserve and debt service coverage requirements and policies.
Reserves
Unrestricted cash reserves by GWP are used to provide working capital, fund capital projects, mitigate market or price volatility risks to customers, and manage the cash flow of the utility. The annual balance and contributions/use of reserves if GWP does not adjust base rates are shown in Table 2-9.
As shown in Table 2-8, the Test Year projected revenues are under collecting by approximately 33.3%. If GWP does not institute rate increases, the estimated annual $76.7 million shortage will be taken from reserves, drawing down the cash reserve balance. The estimated reserve balance as of July 1, 2023, is $209 million or 287 days of cash on hand. Without any rate increases, the cash reserve balance of $209 million will decrease by $355 million over the Study Period to negative $146 million. 186 of 895

The cash reserve balances resulting from the proposed systemwide rate increases are adequate based on industry practices and provide GWP flexibility and financial stability in supporting future operating and capital needs. The reserves also provide GWP with the flexibility to address changes in construction, schedule, and financing-related costs (e.g., the debt interest rates) for the proposed Grayson repowering project, as it is currently estimated in the forecast. In addition, these cash reserves are utilized for multiple purposes at the utility, such as working capital, rate stabilization (e.g., reducing rate volatility and impacts), and capital improvements. 187 of 895

COST OF SERVICE RESULTS
Developing the Test Year Revenue Requirement is the first step in the Rate Study, as shown in Figure 1-1.
After determining the system revenue requirement, a COS for each customer class is developed to determine the specific costs to serve each class. Customer class revenues are compared to class revenue requirements to evaluate the current rate’s abilities to fully recover costs. NewGen analyzed the cost to serve each customer class based on the revenue requirement developed in Section 2.
Once completed, the COS results indicate the degree to which existing rates recover the costs to serve customers. The COS results are then used to design new electric rates.
The COS analyses relied on the following key supporting data and analysis:
Test Year reported revenue requirements and revenues based on current rates; Total System and customer class demand and energy requirements; Actual and assumed customer service characteristics; and Information obtained from customer accounts and records.
Functionalization of Revenue Requirement
The second step in the COS and rate design process, as shown in Figure 1-1, is to functionalize the revenue requirement. The Electric Utility’s rates were unbundled into four functions: power supply, transmission, distribution, and customer service. The assignment of costs by function falls into two general categories:
1) direct assignments and 2) derived allocations. Direct assignments are costs that are readily associated with a specific utility function and are directly assigned to that function. For example, the purchase power contracts are an expense solely related to power supply, so it is directly assigned to that function.
Derived allocators are allocation factors that are based on the sum, average, or weighted effect of different underlying factors. Derived allocators can be complex and should reflect the logical answer to the following question: what underlying activities drive the cost of this item? For example, administrative and general expenses are associated with the O&M of all utility functions. Thus, administrative and general expenses are allocated to each utility function using various derived allocators. Each of the four utility functions is described below.
Power Supply Function
The power supply function consists of costs associated with power generation, the cost of purchased power, and procuring and administering power supply contracts.
Transmission Function
The transmission function consists of costs associated with operating and maintaining the transmission portion of the electric grid and making capital investments, as necessary. The transmission facilities transmit electricity at a high voltage from the generation stations to the distribution system. 188 of 895
Section 3
3-2 GWP Rate Study Final Report
Distribution Function
The distribution function consists of costs associated with operating and maintaining the distribution portion of the electric grid and making capital investments, as necessary. The distribution facilities deliver power to the retail customers after it has been transmitted. This includes low voltage distribution lines, distribution poles, underground lines, customer service connections, meters, and lighting-related assets.
Customer Service Function
The customer service function consists of costs associated with operating and maintaining the customer related facilities to meet customer support needs. This includes, but is not limited to, customer service, billing and collection, and meter reading.
Unbundling of Revenue Requirement
The revenue requirement determined for the Test Year was “unbundled” into the four functional areas of the system: power supply, transmission, distribution, and customer. The results of the functional unbundling are summarized in Table 3-1.

Total $306,802,972 $0.313 100%
(1) Based on Test Year retail energy sales of 1,116,355 MWh.
The power supply function includes the vast majority of the costs for GWP and represents 77% of the Test Year Revenue Requirement. The distribution function is the second largest cost center, representing 14% of the Test Year Revenue Requirement. The transmission function represents 2% of the Test Year Revenue Requirement. The remaining 7% of the revenue requirement is associated with the customer function.
Classification of the Revenue Requirement
The third step in the COS and rate design process is to classify the functionalized revenue requirement.
System costs can be classified into four generally accepted rate-making cost classifications: (1) demand or fixed costs, (2) energy or variable costs, (3) customer-related costs, and (4) directly assignable costs. In order to provide a reasonable basis for the assignment of total revenue requirements (costs) to each customer class, costs for each function have been analyzed and classified into four categories as described below.
Demand Costs – Capacity (fixed- or demand-related) costs are those costs incurred to maintain a utility system in a state of readiness to serve, enabling it to meet the total combined demands of its 189 of 895
COST OF SERVICE RESULTS
GWP Rate Study Final Report 3-3
customers. Capacity costs include the fixed portion of O&M expenses, debt service, capital expenditures, and other costs that are generally fixed and do not vary materially with the quantity of usage or that cannot be designated specifically as a customer or variable cost. Energy Costs – Energy, or variable costs, are costs that vary directly with energy usage, including such items as fuel, energy-related purchased power, and a portion of O&M expenses. Customer Costs – Customer costs are those costs directly related to the number and type of customers, such as customer accounting, customer service, billing, and meter-related expenses. Direct Assignment Costs – Direct assignment costs are those costs that are readily identifiable and applicable to a particular customer or customer class (e.g., Lighting).
Once the costs within each function are assigned to each service category, the demand, energy, customer, and direct assignment components of each service are calculated. As seen in Table 3-2, three major cost categories (demand, energy, and customer) cover most functional costs. This breakdown of demand, energy, customer, and direct assignment costs is later applied to each customer class to facilitate rate design, as provided in Section 4.

Section 3
3-4 GWP Rate Study Final Report
In total, 40% of the Electric Utility’s revenue requirement is energy-related or variable costs. The remaining 60% of the revenue requirement is fixed in nature and classified as demand, customer, or directly assigned to particular customer classes.
Allocation of Revenue Requirement
The fourth step in the COS and rate design process is to allocate the functionalized, classified revenue requirement to the various customer classes. Customer classes represent aggregations of customers that have similar customer usage characteristics and use the system in a similar manner. These groups of customers have similar COS results, which justify similar rates.
Class Allocation Factors
Based upon actual and assumed customer service and consumption characteristics, NewGen developed various factors for use in allocating the revenue requirement to individual customer classes. These allocation factors reflect accepted ratemaking principles and were based upon embedded cost allocation procedures. Embedded costs are the total system costs assuming utility resources are spread across all customers. Embedded costs are generally based on historical or known costs such as audited financial statements and budgets.
We have developed demand-related, energy-related, customer-related, and direct assignment allocation factors as described below.
Demand Allocations
Demand allocators are derived based on the demand requirements of individual customers and classes of customers. Costs are allocated to classes based on the class contribution to the system peak, or coincident peak allocators. This is a measure of each class’s cost responsibility associated with the infrastructure required to meet the system peak demand. As you move from the generator to the meter, the measure of peak demand responsibility changes from a system perspective (coincident peak) to a class perspective (non-coincident peak) to a customer perspective (demand at meter). Demand contributions at these various points in the system are determined based on advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) and billing data available to GWP and NewGen.
For customer class allocation purposes, the four-month coincident peak (4CP), 12-month coincident peak (12CP), and four-month non-coincident peak (4NCP) were used to allocate demand-related power supply, transmission, and distribution related costs. The 12CP allocator was used to allocate baseload related power supply costs. The 4CP was used to allocate the peaking related power supply costs.
Transmission costs for the Electric Utility were also allocated using the 4CP method, which recognizes that the transmission system is constructed to deliver power at the time of the maximum system peak.
To verify the demand allocators chosen for power supply and transmission, we performed the three peak load tests used to determine whether the system demands are characteristic of a 4CP, 6CP, 12CP, etc.
These tests are commonly referred to as the “FERC Tests” as the methodology has been used and supported at the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC). The three tests are the On- and Off-Peak test, the Low to Annual Peak test, and the Average to Annual Peak test. Each of these tests supported the use of a 4CP allocator for peak load.

COST OF SERVICE RESULTS
GWP Rate Study Final Report 3-5
Similarly, distribution costs are designed to meet the maximum demands of the localized system or customers, so the 4NCP allocation factor was used. Distribution demand-related costs were allocated to customer classes based on the 4NCP. An NCP allocator is typically used to allocate distribution costs, as distribution facilities are sized to meet localized peak demands rather than the system peak demand. The 4NCP method was used to allocate the distribution system demand-related costs associated with substations, poles, conductors, and distribution transformers.
Table 3-3 compares the various demand allocators utilized in the Study.

Energy Allocations
Energy allocation factors are the basis for allocating costs or expenses classified as variable or energy related and are assumed to vary directly with kWh sales. Energy-related costs classified as variable were energy costs from fuel, renewable contracts, and spot market purchases. Typically, net energy for load (NEFL), or the energy necessary to supply each customer class, is used to allocate these types of costs to individual customer classes. NEFL is also sometimes called adjusted metered load or energy at generation, as it takes into consideration energy losses that occur on the transmission and distribution systems between the power supplier delivery point and the customer’s meter. Table 3-4 lists the energy allocation factors utilized in the Study.

Customer Allocations
Customer costs are defined as those costs related to the number of customers and the type of service required. Included in the customer-related costs are the costs associated with meter reading, customer service, sales, billing, collection, and other customer-related activities. The customer allocation factors were largely based on the number of customers in each class.
In allocating certain customer-related costs to the various customer classifications, weighted customer allocation factors were utilized. Weighting reflects that servicing certain types of customers requires more effort and expenses than other types of customers. Weighting factors were developed based on discussions with GWP staff, as well as by applying industry knowledge and practices. Weighting factors reflect the relationships between the customer classes and the types of equipment or services needed to serve the class and the relative costs of those items. For example, utilities typically have “key account” customer service representatives dedicated to serving large business customers, which results in higher customer service costs for these customers on a per customer basis.

PROPOSED RATES
Rate design is the culmination of a COS study where the rates and charges for each customer class are established in such a manner that the total revenue requirement of the utility will be recovered in the most equitable and consistent manner, to the extent reasonable and practical. During rate design, consideration was given to the recovery of fixed costs in the customer and demand charges and the implications of Proposition 26, as well as phasing in the proposed rates over time.
Rate Design Objectives
In general, proposed and recommended rate structures should meet the following objectives and best practices:
Rates should be equitable among customer classes and individuals within classes, taking into consideration the costs incurred to serve each customer class. Rates should be designed to encourage the most efficient use of the utility’s system. Rates may take into consideration other important factors, such as competitive concerns, conservation, GWP or City Council policies, etc.
Rates should be simple and understandable.
Rate design typically combines COS results and policy considerations important to the community.
Specific rate design goals for GWP include:
Aligning rates with COS results in improving fixed cost recovery. Aligning rates with the COS results to address differences between and within classes. While moving rates toward the COS, to the extent possible, minimize customer and class adverse impacts to proposed rates.
Electric Rate Structure
The proposed electric rates include a customer charge, energy charge, demand charge (if applicable), Energy Cost Adjustment Charge (ECAC), Regulatory Adjustment Charge (RAC), and the Revenue Decoupling Charge (RDC). The customer, energy, and demand charges are commonly referred to as “base rates,” while the ECAC, RAC, and RDC are referred to as pass-through adjustment rates.
Base Rate Charges
The customer charge should be designed to recover customer-related costs. The expenses to the utility for providing customer-related functions do not change with the energy the customer consumes and should therefore be on a $/month or $/day basis. The energy charges ($/kWh) should be designed to recover all variable costs including O&M, fuel, and applicable power supply costs. The demand charge should be designed to recover demand-related costs and should be on a $/kilowatt (kW) month or $/kW day basis.
196 of 895
Section 4
4-2 GWP Rate Study Final Report
Customer and demand charges should collect revenues to fund the Electric Utility’s fixed costs. However, due to rate design, energy charges may collect revenues to recover both fixed and variable costs. For customer classes that do not have demand charges, a large portion of fixed costs are collected through the energy charge.
Certain customer classes have seasonal rates that reflect the higher demand periods (e.g., summer) and lower demand periods (e.g., non-summer) for the Electric Utility system. The High Season is July through October and the Low Season is November through June. These seasonal charges provide price signals to customers that reflect the higher costs associated with system peaking periods. The COS results also indicate customer and demand charges are too low for some classes and thus should be increased. This is a common result for many utilities throughout the industry.
Pass-Through Adjustment Charges
Utilities often have adjustment charges that pass through variable costs, allowing the utility to fully recover these costs as the costs are not controlled by the utility. The utility uses the pass-through cost adjustment rates to recover costs when they vary from the projected basis. The Electric Utility rates have three adjustment charges, which include the ECAC, RAC, and RDC.
The ECAC is a mechanism to pass through the fuel and purchased power variable costs. The ECAC passes through charges or credits for any differences in the projected fuel and purchased power-related costs to the customers without the need for a formal rate change. The ECAC is reviewed semi-annually with any changes to become effective January 1 and/or July 1. GWP, upon its discretion, can utilize electric reserves to offset all or a portion of these costs. The current ECAC is $0.0250 per kWh; however, GWP may implement an adjustment in the future, if or when needed. When GWP completes a COS study and implements new rates, the recommended base rates integrate current ECAC and related pass-through charges; thus, recommended rates include the ECAC, RDC, and RAC moving to $0.00 per kWh. For the purposes of this report, NewGen has maintained the ECAC at $0.000 per kWh in each of the five phases of the proposed rates.
The RAC is designed to recover costs associated with variances from projected regulatory compliance costs related to federal, state, and local laws regarding reliability standards, environmental laws and regulations, renewable portfolio standard requirements, air quality, and greenhouse gas regulations.
Specifically, the mechanism is designed to recover costs associated with business process design, recordkeeping and reporting, training, compliance assessments, judgments, orders or decisions, environmental remediation costs, emission reduction costs, energy efficiency, energy storage, and load reduction costs and mandated power supplies. The RAC is reviewed semi-annually with any changes to become effective January 1 and/or July 1. GWP, upon its discretion, can utilize electric reserves to offset all or a portion of these costs. The current RAC is $0.00011 per kWh; however, GWP may implement an adjustment in the future, if or when needed. For the purposes of this report, NewGen has maintained the RAC at $0.000 per kWh in each of the five phases of the proposed rates.
The RDC is an adjustment mechanism to collect costs associated with differences between projected and actual retail sales. This mechanism is designed to recover costs when sales are impacted by weather, lower electricity consumption, and other factors. The RDC is reviewed semi-annually with any changes to become effective January 1 and/or July 1. GWP, upon its discretion, can utilize electric reserves to offset all or a portion of these costs. The current RDC is $0.0159 per kWh; however, GWP may implement an adjustment in the future, if or when needed. For the purposes of this report, NewGen has maintained the RDC at $0.000 per kWh in each of the five phases of the proposed rates. 197 of 895
PROPOSED RATES
GWP Rate Study Final Report 4-3
Public Benefits Charge
Each electric rate bill prepared by GWP includes a Public Benefits Charge (PBC). The PBC is imposed at a rate of 3.6% of the charges made for such electricity, and for any supplemental services or other associated activities directly related to and/or necessary for the provision of electricity to the service user.
Please note that the PBC is applied to each customer bill; however, we have not included the PBC amount in the proposed rate tables for each customer class within this section.
Electric Utility Proposed Rates
Based on the COS results, GWP decided to support their revenue requirement needs with a combination of rate increases and use of reserves. GWP set annual retail revenue increases of 14.8% for FY 2024,
11.3% for FY 2025, 11.3% for FY 2026, 0.0% for FY 2027, and 0.0% for FY 2028. These rate increases are necessary to maintain the reserve fund balance at adequate levels.
The Rate Design section of this report includes proposed rates for each class to meet the required revenue goals. The GWP revenue increases were not applied equally to each customer class, as the COS results support a higher rate increase for Residential and Small Commercial customers and slightly lower rate increases for Medium Commercial and Large Commercial classes. Due to the larger rate increases required each year at a system level, a rate strategy of limiting the increase for any class at 1.25 times the system average rate increase needed was applied. This capped the rate increases recommended for Residential and Small Commercial. However, over the course of the three years, all classes moved to align with their COS results. The results of the rate strategy and rate recommendations by class are summarized in Table 4-1.
Table 4-1
Recommended Rate Increases by Class
Customer Class FY 2024 FY 2025 FY 2026 FY 2027 FY 2028

Lighting (SL1, SL2, SL3) 0% 0% 0% 0% 0%
Total 14.8% 11.3% 11.3% 0% 0%
The proposed Electric Utility rates include a demand charge (where applicable), energy charge, customer charge, ECAC, RAC, and RDC. Seasonal, inclining block, and time-of-use (TOU) rates are also contained in the proposed rates. Based on the forecasted expenses to operate the Electric Utility from FY 2024 through FY 2028, NewGen recommends rate adjustments over three phases rather than five to align with the proposed Grayson repowering schedule and to maintain financial metrics required to ensure financial health at GWP. The forecasted revenue generated in each phase is provided in Table 4-2. 198 of 895

The revenues by customer class used for the financial forecast were based on the audited 2022 data provided by GWP. The revenues and billing impacts estimated in this section of the Report are based on the 2022 customer billing database provided by GWP. The 2022 audited revenues are approximately 0.7% higher than the revenues from the 2022 customer billing database. Billing database revenues often vary slightly from audited revenues based on adjustments performed as part of the audit and, less commonly, from missing customer information from the billing database.
Rate Design Results
The proposed rates and example monthly customer bills for each customer class are presented below.
Graphs have been included to provide visual information with respect to current rates, proposed rates, and COS results. Please note that each phase corresponds to the GWP FY (e.g., Phase 1 is FY 2024, Phase 2 is FY 2025, etc.).
Residential Service
The Residential class is composed of a standard rate and a TOU rate. L-1-A is the standard rate in which residential customers are served on a retail basis. L-1-B is composed of residential customers served on a retail basis with TOU rates. The COS results showed that the Test Year revenues were 42.9% less than the COS for the class. Tables 4-3 and 4-4 compare the current and proposed rates for Phases 1 through
5. As previously mentioned, when GWP completes a COS study and recommends new rates, the passthrough rates (ECAC, RDC, and RAC) are all absorbed into the base rates and subsequently set to $0.00 per kWh. Those pass-through rates will adjust in the future to address the differences in the forecasted 199 of 895

4-6 GWP Rate Study Final Report
The COS analysis indicates that the current revenues collected for the Residential class are below COS levels, and the proposed rates are designed to move this customer class closer to COS levels. The current customer charge is slightly lower than the COS, results in L-1 A, and is proposed to increase in each phase.
The proposed increases will help offset the differences between the current revenues and the COS, and will increase fixed cost recovery. The energy charges are also proposed to increase in each phase to assist this customer class to move closer towards COS levels. For the L-1-B or TOU class, the customer charge was adjusted to align with the non-TOU customer charge.
Figure 4-1 compares the unit costs ($/kWh) for the current rates, five phases of rate adjustments, and the COS for a series of monthly energy usage amounts within the Residential class. As shown in the figure, each phase of the rate changes moves the Residential class rate curve closer to its COS curve. Please note that as the rates are phased in over a three-year period, the final phases of rates are slightly above the COS. COS-based rates assume an implementation in year 1 of the full COS indicated rate change. When rates are gradually phased in, the later phases must re-collect the lost revenue in the early phases as rates are not at the proper COS levels. This situation exists for each rate class and recommended rates.
As illustrated in Figure 4-1, the proposed rates closely mirror the current rates. At lower usage levels or load factors, the total bill is driven more by the fixed customer charges than the variable energy charges.
This results in a higher rate per kWh for lower usage customers than higher usage customers. As a customer’s usage increases, the rate per kWh for each phase slightly decreases.
The figure also shows a bar graph representing the number of customers at each energy usage interval.
The majority of customers use between 200 and 600 kWh per month.
Figure 4-1. Residential L-1-A Cost Curves (High Season) The average Residential Customer uses approximately 400 kWh per month. The average customer will experience an overall rate increase of 18.6% in Phase 1. Figure 4-2 reflects the monthly bill adjustment per customer that Residential accounts will experience from Current rates to Phase 1.
As illustrated in Figure 4-2, the majority of Residential customers will experience a bill increase of less than $15.00 from Current rates to Phase 1.

Small Business
The Small Business class is composed of a standard rate and a TOU rate. L-2-A is the standard rate in which small business customers are served on a retail basis. L-2-B is composed of small business customers served on a retail basis with TOU rates. Small Business customers are commercial electric customers that use less than 20 kW of demand or 5,000 kWh. Tables 4-5 and 4-6 compare the current and proposed rates for Phases 1 through 5.
The COS analysis indicates that the current revenues collected for the L-2 class are 43.6% below COS levels, and the proposed rates are designed to move this customer class closer to COS levels. The current customer charge is lower than the COS results and is proposed to increase in each phase. The proposed increases will help offset the differences between the current revenues and the COS, as well as increase fixed cost recovery. The energy charges are also proposed to increase in each phase to assist this customer class to move closer towards COS levels.

LD-2 Standby Rate
Standby service provides reliability to customers who generate all or a portion of their energy needs. The self-generating customers remain connected to the GWP power grid, which is standing by to supplement or back up power needs at a moment’s notice. Standby service minimizes this cost shifting by quantifying the value of reliability to a customer. Standby service improves the equitable recovery of costs among customers who choose to generate compared to customers who do not.
Reservation Charge
Typically, the utility and the customer will sign a contract for a specific amount of capacity or power. This capacity will depend on the customer’s needs and how much generation the customer has installed. The utility must build and design their production, transmission, and distribution system to meet the customer’s capacity needs. The customer will pay a Reservation Charge to the utility for the utility to maintain this “reserved” capacity. This charge is paid each month, regardless of whether the customer has needed the capacity. This reservation charge for GWP is based on the full transmission and distribution COS results in addition to 15% of the generation or capacity COS demand-related costs. The 15% amount is based on the planning reserves often required to meet the system peak demands of the utility and maintain reliability. The remaining 85% of the generation demand-related costs are then applied in the backup charge when the customer utilizes GWP’s system as noted below.
Supplemental Power Charge
The customer may choose to install generation that does not meet all their power needs. If this is the case, the customer will pay the utility for the supplemental power above and beyond the self-generation amounts. These charges are applied to the demand and energy supplied to the customer by the utility and align with the standard rates for the customer class. In the case of the LD-2 standby rate, the LD-2-A rates will apply as the supplemental power charges.
B ackup Charge
Should the customer’s generation have an unexpected outage, they will need backup power from the utility. The backup charges will be applied to the demand and energy the customer uses during this period.
Scheduled M aintenance Charge
When the customer needs to take their generation offline to perform scheduled maintenance, the utility will provide service to the customer. The timing of this event is coordinated between the utility and the customer. It usually takes place when the utility’s system peak is expected to be low, commonly in the spring or fall when weather is mild. The customer will pay the Schedule Maintenance charges during this time. There is no demand charge to the customer during this period. 211 of 895

Large Business
The Large Business-1 (PC-1-A) class includes customers whose power needs exceed 150 kW. The Large Business class is composed of a standard rate, a TOU rate, and Customer-Owned-Generation rates. PC-2- A is the standard rate at which large business customers are served on a retail basis. PC-2-B is composed of large business customers served on a retail basis with TOU rates. PC-2-C is the standard rate at which large business customers are served on a retail basis who own and operate photovoltaic or wind powered electric generation systems for which they desire standby capacity from GWP. PC-2-D is composed of large business customers served on a retail basis with TOU rates who own and operate photovoltaic or wind powered electric generation systems for which they desire standby capacity from GWP. Customers with demand less than 500 kW per month may choose the PC-1-A, PC-1-B, PC-1-C, or PC-1-D rate.
Customers with demand over 500 kW per month for three months during a one-year period must be on the PC-1-B or PC-1-D rate. The minimum demand charged to the customer is 150 kW. Tables 4-10 and 4- 11 compare the current and proposed rates for Phases 1 through 5.
According to the COS analysis, the Test Year revenues under-collected the full PC-1 class COS by 28.2%.
The demand cost is related to the expense to serve the PC-1 customer’s peaking demand. For the proposed rates, each charge increases, moving the rates closer to COS results. 212 of 895

PC-1 Standby Rate
As a part of this Study, we have developed Standby Service rates for the PC-1 rate class and customers who install self-generation to serve all or a portion of their load. The rates are based on the COS results and fixed costs to serve the customers. Fixed costs include generation demand, transmission demand, and distribution demand. The following charges were developed for the Large Business class. As with LD2 Standby Service, the reservation charge for GWP is based on the full transmission and distribution COS results in addition to 15% of the generation or capacity COS demand-related costs. The 15% amount is based on the planning reserves often required to meet the system peak demands of the utility and maintain reliability. The remaining 85% of the generation demand-related costs are then applied in the backup charge when the customer utilizes GWP’s system as noted below. The Supplemental Service charge is also aligned with the applicable PC-1-A phased rates.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
In reliance upon the data received by GWP and the analyses described herein, we conclude and recommend the following.
Conclusions
Financial Forecast:
• GWP has a total capital plan of $723 million over the Study Period. This capital plan is proposed to be funded through a combination of debt, rate revenues, and use of cash reserve funds.
• GWP will meet all operating, capital, and debt needs through 2028 based on the GWP recommended rate changes.
• GWP will meet or exceed its debt service coverage ratio requirements of 1.1X. • GWP will maintain adequate cash reserves.
Revenue Requirement:
• Current rates are not generating sufficient revenues to meet current and projected costs. On a systemwide basis, current rate revenues require an immediate one-time 33.3% increase to fully recover the COS results.
COS:
• The Residential and Small Business classes are significantly below COS. • The Medium and Large Business classes are below COS; however, they are closer than Residential and Small Business.
• Existing rate components are continuing to move closer to align with the COS to minimize intraclass subsidization.
Rate Design:
• Due to the large rate increases, a rate strategy to gradually move classes closer to their COS results with a cap of 1.25 times the system average rate increase was implemented for each class. Thus, the Residential and Small Commercial classes rate increases were limited each year.
• Rates were designed to phase in the COS indicated changes over a three-year period. • Base rates require modification to better align with the COS results, generally increasing the fixed charges such as the customer or demand charges.
• Customer charges were aligned between the standard rate and TOU rate for each class. 218 of 895
Section 5
5-2 GWP Rate Study Final Report
Recommendations
Based on our conclusions and supporting analyses, NewGen recommends the following:
GWP should adjust rates across each customer class to better align with the COS results. The COS results show the need for a rate increase for all classes other than lighting. GWP should adjust rates over a three-year period to ensure that financial metrics such as debt service coverage ratio and days cash on hand are met.
The GWP Council should support the adoption of the rate plan as proposed in this Report. GWP should continue to perform a comprehensive COS study every three to five years, or when aligned with a major change in operations such as a change in power supply, a new large industrial customer or loss of a large customer, or significant change in system operations. 219 of 895
