Pasadena City Council
100N.GarfieldAve.
Pasadena, CA91101
RE: Objection to Proposed Increase of Sewer Use Fee Rate Dear Honorable Members of the Pasadena City Council,
We are writing to express our strong objection to the proposed increase in sewer use fees. While we understand the need to maintain sewer services and ensure the financial stability of the Sewer Conveyance System, we believe that the proposed fee hike places an undue burden on residents.
Our objections are as follows:
1. Affordability: The cumulative effect of multiple fee increases overtime can significantly impact households. Many residents, including seniors and low to middle-income families, may struggle to absorb these additional costs.
2. Economic Climate: The rate hike is not justified by the current economic climate. As our community recovers from pandemic-related challenges, burdening residents with additional costs is counterproductive.
3. Exploring Alternatives: We encourage the City Council to explore alternative solutions to address the city's budgetary needs without placing such a significant burden on residents. Creative approaches and cost-saving measures should be considered.
In light of these concerns, we respectfully request that the Pasadena City Council reconsider the proposed sewer use fee rate increase.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Brian and Reza Bitanga

Good afternoon,
My name is Noa Bolozky. My husband Ross Melnick and I reside at in Pasadena. I am writing to formally protest the rates indicated in the letter we received last week. The adjusted rates are quite high and pose something of a financial hardship. I belong to two industries which have been widely affected by events of the last year.
Production, (a film and tv makeup artist) and real estate. I haven't been able to work in 8 months on set with the strike, and the incredibly high interest rates have sent my buyers scurrying. Bills that jump this much will have a profound effect on my wallet and my ability to keep up with soaring costs and no work in sight.
Please consider this our household formal protest.
Thank you for your consideration.
Noa Bolozky and Ross Melnick.

Subject: Implementation of Sewer Use Fee Rate Adjustments Dear City Council,
I am writing to you as the homeowner of , Pasadena CA 91 1 03 to OPPOSE (we are AGAINST) the increased fees for Sewer use starting in July 2024.
We recently bought a new home here in Pasadena and the cost of living is not sustainable for the upper middle class, let alone middle class.
We have recently seen electric and water/sewage bills up to (and over) of $2,300.00 for 1 period (2 months).
The average resident cannot afford this.
In addition to the property taxes and other fixed living expenses are beyond expensive.
We have 3 young children (ages 6, 5 and 5 months) and while we love Pasadena so much, an increase in our monthly fixed bills - could result us (and many others) to move elsewhere.
Please, we are begging you - make Pasadena more affordable to live for young families!! If not, you will continue to see a migrant of residents to other neighboring areas where it is more affordable.
Thank you for your time,
Molly and Joe Carey

Hello city of Pasadena,
I am against raising rates for Sewer use, at least in the proposed rates for the next 5 years. I would prefer a slower ramp to increase rates ratherthan a huge jump in the beginning.
Thanks and regards,

Dear Sir and Madam,
I received your notice of public hearing on proposed sewer use fee rate increase and new rate structure as well as rate increase on solid waster refuse collection fee. I would like to indicate that I am opposed to such relatively drastic increases in both rates. Please know that these are essential services and that you are a municipal utility. Upkeep for the smooth running of these services is essential. A conservative increase in rate structure need to be reviewed and assessed every few years which does not seem to have been the case according to your letter (in the past ten years). The rate increase is too abrupt and drastic.
Thank you for your attention

To whom it may concern: My name is Cindy Chiang at ', Pasadena. I protest the proposed sewer use fee rate adjustment and new rate structure. We need additional transparency as to why you need to TRIPLE the average sewer use fees for single family residences. At a time when inflation has soared and residents are severely burdened by increasing expenses, this non-discretionary expense should not soar by an astronomical - and frankly incomprehensible - amount.

We hereby protest the proposed rate adjustment.
This is the weakest excuse for a rate increase I have ever seen! The decreased water usage was primarily for irrigation of which very little enters the sewer.
This is simply to generate revenue to increase the capacity of the system to accommodate new development without the
developers paying for the increased volume.
Stick it to the existing customers who have made an
investment in Pasadena!

I am protesting the proposed rate change Sewer Use Fee . For the last few years we as residents of Pasadena were constantly reminded to cut the rate of water usage. We did and now we are being told that the city needs more money. I had a need for a 'Bulk Removal Service' from my property. One man drove the vehicle, two other men loaded the idem while another man drove a separate city truck and watched the whole process. So four men and two city trucks completed the task that two men in one truckwould have done the same task in the private citizen business! I am one of the top water conservators in this city. I believe the city leaders can find other ways of saving money so that they will not pass rate changes on the Senior Citizens like me. Thank You, George Eastis 1 Q

To the City Council:
We are formally protesting the proposed rate hikes for water and sewer service that have been placed on the April 8, 2024 agenda for your consideration.
These proposed increases are unnecessary, punidve, and onerous. Please do NOT approve them.
It makes Utde sense for the Council to push affordable housing if it adopts prohibidvely expensive utility rates that will unfairly squeeze household budgets and deprive current residents of their opportunity to Uve affordably.

Good day members of the City Council for Pasadena.
I address the April 8, public hearing, which I protest the proposal to increase sewer rates July 1, 2024.
The City collects enough from residents for Electric, Water, Sewer and Refuse. Please syphon from tax collected funds for low-income housing development or many other development funds like the 710 reclaimed land development proposals. Times are bad economically and this is another jab at home owners who worked hard to own and maintain their own homes. My makeup and hair union local 706 will not gain any ground in the present Studio negotiations, to increase our hourly minimum rates, as we are too crippled from the 2023 Writers and Actor strikes to protest. Film production has fled our city, state and nation for cheaper labor and tax incentives.
Please respect your Pasadena voters and residents. Burry this proposed adjustments to the Solid Waste Refuse Collection Fees.
Thanks,
Mark Garbarino (Family of four.)

To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Jean-Luc Gauvreau at .1 protest the proposed Sewer fee use rate adjustment and new rate structure. It is unconscionable for a rate increase of 150% when there is no increase or improvement of services. In the meantime, our property taxes went up, and the City raises all kinds of fees without consideration for the inflation and high prices we have to live with, making our paychecks less valuable because we cannot buy as much of essentials as before. The City Council and personnel must negotiate better for the tax-paying citizens of Pasadena.

To whom it may concern
My name is Faisal Haroon, Pasadena 91107. It has been bought to my notice that City of Pasadena is planning to have a 250% increase in sewer fees. This is unacceptable. How can such a large increase be justifiable?
Thank you
Faisal Haroon

Dear City Clerk,
On behalf of Cental Partners LLC, with regard to our property located at hereby formally protest the rate adjustments.
Pasadena, CA91106, we
It has come to our attention that the revised sewer use fees, if implemented, present a considerable escalation that impacts our operational costs significantly. Our protest is grounded on the premise that the adjustments fail to consider the financial strain on local businesses and homeowners in Pasadena, including ours.
We respectfully request a comprehensive review of these fee adjustments, specifically in relation to their impact on small to medium-sized enterprises. It is our belief that a more equitable solution can be found, one that balances the city's financial needs with the sustainability of its business community.
Sincerely,
Joel Henriod, Partner

Hello - where can I find information about the rationale for the recent utilities/services price hikes and the justification for the amount of those increases? The increases were so substantial relative to past that it substantially exceeds inflationary impacts, so I was surprised by the relative increase. I think we may want to explore outsourced, private options if the city increased budgets and costs are really so large to justify a 50% increase.
Thank you,
Rob

As Pasadena is now under rent control, I think it is unfair to increase the sewer usage rates at a time when cost increases cannot be passed along to the tenants.

As a 55 year resident of Pasadena, I am OPPOSED to the proposed implementation of refuse collection rate adjustments. I am also opposed to the implementation of sewer use fee rate adjustments.
I also share your concern about too much water usage. You can check my last year's water consumption and notice that I am using less water every month as I appreciate the need to conserve water. There is no need to increase rates

The Sewer Use Fee has always been based on the premise that all residential water usage goes into the sewer. THIS IS NOT TRUE, since water used for the landscape does not go into the sewer.
Once again, since residents are conserving water, you are proposing a Fixed Sewer Fee.
So the City is proposing the following:
1. Volumetric Fee: 86% increase effective July 1, 2024,15% increase the next year and 4% - 5% increases for subsequent years.
2. New Fixed Fee: $6.16 effective July 1, 2024,16% increase the next year and 4% increases for subsequent years.
I live on a fixed income and this rate increase is not acceptable.
NO SEWER USE FEE INCREASE!

Hello my name is Elizabeth M ^- .-...- s) and unfortunately, I cannot attend the Public Hearing on April 8, 2024. hlowever, I am against any increase and/or adjustments to our Refuse Collection Fees. We property owners pay enough taxes and more than our fair share in Pasadena,and we are not seeing a tot of results. We do everything right and are just trying to get by and we have to cover all the problems of everybody else and this needs to stop! Where are our rewards and handouts for doing the right thing by taking a lifetime to attend school/college, save to buy our homes, drive our old cars, and be involved with making our neighborhood better? People need to be satisfied with working hard and having a tremendous amount of patience by saving and not buying what they can't afford just to show off to others and because they want things now. Enough is enough and we (homeowners) are getting tired of always carrying those who make bad choices and are not willing to work hard, save, and sacrifice. There are better ways to find the money, and there is a lot of it. The city just needs to get creative and quit relying on the hardworking home owners to continually foot the bill. With all the taxes we pay, these rate increases are inexcusable! Both my husband and I are against any increases. 1 McMillan, Acquanette (Netta)

Hello Pasadena City Council Chamber,
I am a property owner and resident ofPasadena, CA 91104.
I would like to state that I stand in opposition to both proposed rate adjustments (Solid Waste Refuse Collection and Sewer Use Fee Rate/New Rate Structure) being debated on April 8th, 2024.
Our city has one of the highest sales tax in the areas - so between sales taxes collected, and other fees collected by your residents, any attempts to pass on capital infrastructure or on-going maintenance costs to our citizens should not be considered.
Please keep our costs low and find savings elsewhere. Thank you for your time.

To whom it may concern: My name is Gregory McDonald, and I have lived at , 91104, since 1982.1 am protesting the proposed sewer use fee adjustment and new rate structure. The city has allowed for too much new residential construction, which is now overtaxing the city's infrastructure. Better planning and assessments, including notifications of the current city property owners that additional resource costs will impact, must be done before these approvals are given.

Although some increase in sewer use fees can be justified, the proposed increase is too steep especially with annual increases. The volume rate charge is especially unfair because it is based on water use, but the majority of the water, at least on my property, is used for the landscape and does not go into the sewer.
I am opposed to the currently proposed rate increase.

Re: proposed sewer use fee rate adjustment and new rate structure Honorable City Council,
This letter serves as a written protest to the proposed sewer use fee rate adjustment and new rate structure.
We understand that the rate increase is to cover the cost of maintaining the city's aging sewer infrastructure. However, an 85.7% initial increase on the Volumetric rate and a new fixed rate is too large of an overall increase. If the city could reduce the initial fixed rate to $3.00 and subsequent yearly increases to 7% and the initial Volumetric increase to 7% and 7% per year in subsequent increases, we would be in agreement with this proposal.

To all those in charge of decision making in this matter, I am the owner of a Bungalow Court located at
sewer. I do not support these new fee increases.
. Pasadena, CA 91103. I pay for trash, water, and
These rates are very steep. As a landlord, I can't pass these increases on to my tenants who are the end users. It will come out of my pocket, decreasing my already measly profit. Oh, wait! What profit? Most landlords pay for trash and sewer/water. The regulations set forth by the newly formed PRHB, rents can only increase by 75% of the CPI. It looks like these utilities want an increase far greater than that. I object! The very real consequence may very well be to have my tenants get their own bins.

Hello,
I'm writing in protest of the proposed increase of sewage and refuse rates. I think this is ridiculous along with a lot of other measures that the City has imposed. I am not in agreement with this. The cost of living in Pasadena is already high and the additional taxes we pay for a poor school district along with other programs is ridiculous. The city needs to better control their spending and money and not at the expense of its residences or businesses.

Elizabeth Nayebi

To Whom It May Concern, I wanted to reach out to express my extreme opposition to any rate increases for either Solid Waste/Refuse Collection or Sewage and Sewage Management Services. These increases do not outline any additional infrastructure, system securities, reliability, or benefit of any kind to the residents of the City. As a Taxpayer who is already paying fees for these services and property taxes, there seems to be no real need to increase the cost to the consumer for any reason. Thank You for your Time.

Good morning,
I am a resident of Pasadena for nearly 20 years now and I would Like to express my OPPOSITION to the proposed sewer use fee increases. The increase is absolutely EXORBITANT and RIDICULOUS. It is understandable that overthe years SMALL increases maybe necessary from time to time due to rising costs however the proposal indicates that the fees would BASICALLY DOUBLE in ONE YEAR and then continue to increase year after year! This exorbitant increase is COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE for Pasadena residents and puts an INCREDIBLE BURDEN on all households in Pasadena, the majority of which are already struggling to make ends meet amidst the high cost of living in Pasadena and skyrocketing inflation.
If there is going to be any proposal for fee increases it absolutely cannot be such a dramatic increase on residents. I OPPOSE THE APPROVAL OF THIS PROPOSAL. It most certainly needs to be re-done with realistic and feasible (in other words SMALL) increases over time that wilt avoid bankrupting Pasadena residents and small businesses.

To whom it may concern: My name is Queen Smith, landlord at . Upstairs Unit, Pasadena, Ca.
I protest the proposed sewer use fee rate adjustment and new rate structure. I am the owner of several residential rental properties in Pasadena. The fee increase is too steep. The entire burden will be upon me as the new Pasadena rent control laws limits adjusting rents to share the cost. I stand against the proposed rate adjustment.

I protest the proposed increase in sewer rate fees.
A near tripling of the fees over the next five years seems egregious. It's unclear how much this is costing the city today and also unclear how the increased revenue will be spent. Until those are provided, I will not support any changes.

Sir and Madam,
I am protesting the implementation of Sewer use fee rate adjustments.
We have done as you wanted and cut back on our water usage for several years now but the city has allowed huge building projects of apartments and condos thru out our city. These, if they are even filled, have increased the water and sewer usage dramatically. I agree that some increase is normal but basically doubling the fee is hitting all the homeowners, seniors and low income once again. The 5 year total increase would be 1 1/2 times what we now pay.
Please considerthe Longtime residences in this decision and lower the amount of the increase to be more affordable for us.
Thankyou,
Shar Stafford

Good Morning,
Please put me on the record to being opposed to any rate increases for either Solid Waste/Refuse Collection or Sewage and Sewage Management Services. These increases do not reflect any additional infrastructure, system securities, reliability, or benefit of any kind to the residents of the City. As a homeowner, I already pay the fees for these services in addition to property taxes, and there seems to be no real need to increase the cost to the consumer for any reason.
Thank you for your consideration to this matter.
Sincerely,
Stacey Rain Strickler

I don't see how you get the numbers in the bottom table showing the impact on the monthly utility bill. In the upper table under Current you show the average $/hcf is $0.35 for a single family residence. And in the lower table you show the Current SFR bill is $4.55. So the average SFR hcfis $4.55 / $0.35/hcf= 13 hcf. Then if we look at column FYE 2029, for example, we should be able to calculate the average SFR bill for that year as follows: 13 hcf x $0.85/hcf = $11.05.
Then add the fixed cost of $8.04: $8.04 + $11.05 = $19.09. But in the bottom table it shows the average SFR for FYE 2029 as $14.83.
Since it appears to me that the numbers in the lower table showing impact to the monthly utility bill aren't correct, I can't approve the proposed changes at present. If the numbers aren't correct please send out a revised notice for our consideration.
Thank you,
George Swihart

Subject: Proposed Water Use and Sewer Use Fee Rate Adjustments and New Rate Structure To Whom It May Concern
I am requesting that the proposed increase(s) do NOT occur as they are very steep. I am a disabled resident with income from Social Security Disability and I reside al , Pasadena.The initial increase as well as subsequent increase amounts proposed are going to create greater difficulty in being able to afford the utilities that I am already having difficulty paying. Not having the ability to work, work over-time or take on a second job is very difficult in today's economy as expenses increase without missing a beat but social security income does not.
I thank you for your time and attention to my request.

My name is Lynn Thompson. I'm a Pasadena homeowner and on a fixed income. The pending increase in utilities may seem minor to some but for someone on a fixed income, every penny counts. All expenses have increased and a rise in utilities cost will make it that much more difficult to afford food and my many meds. Please reconsider the increase.Thank you.

This letter is in response to two letters that I received regarding:
IMPLEMENTATION OF SEWER USE FEE RATE ADJUSTMENTS
AND
CITY OF PASADENA PROPOSED REFUSE COLLECTION FEES
My name is:
Ardelia M. Wright, Pasadena, CA 91107-1306, Upper Hastings Ranch. I am in councilman Gene IVIasuda's District 4.
1 I have been a resident here for over 45 years and have paid taxes and fees on this property for that many years. The sewer service and waste management has not been upgraded since I have been here. When I was working it was not a problem, but now I am on a fixed income. I have to pay someone to bring my trash cans up and down. I have had to pay someone to clean out the sewer. The city does not cover any of these costs. It says these fees cover the cost of operating the system, ongoing maintenance and needed capital improvements. In whose neighborhood?? There have been none of these in mine, so what am I paying for??
When the city's tree damaged my sidewalk and bricks on my parkway, the first time the city paid to fix the sidewalk. I had to pay to repair the bricks. The 2nd time a few years ago, they said "we don't do that anymore and you have to pay half." Half was over $900.00. I had to remove the bricks and put in rocks because the roots are already coming back and I had to pay for that! ! I asked them to remove the tree, because over time this is going to happen again. I was told that the tree was healthy, so they wouldn't remove it. I noticed another crack and they have just filled it in with black asphalt causing a bump that someone could trip over and who would be responsible??? What am I paying taxes for?? If they are going to increase the rates on the sewer use, then I want the sewer checked for cracks and cleaned out. That is what we are paying for right?? And if the waste collection fees are going up, I want new trash cans with my address printed on it, so I can find it when the rain washes it down the street. Also trash cans that don't have bear scratches all over them..
They are over 20 years old. I am already paying for them!! I DO NOT AGREE WITH THE INCREASES ON EITHER PROPOSAL!!
I AM PROTESTING THE RATE INCREASES ON BOTH PROPOSALS!!
Thank you for letting me vent. Ardelia M. Wright

I protest the rate increases for the Solid Waste Refuse Collection Fee. The increases are excessive. For example, the 100 gallon cart rate increases 13.7 percent for the first year (July 1,2024)and the Residential Bin pickup for one bin pickup per week is a 100 percent increase from $1 24.70 to $249.92 for the first year of the increases. The notification letter to residents did not specifically state what expense accounts increased to warrant the fee increase. I hope this will be addressed in detail at the public hearing.
Regards,
GuyZelenski

I strongly protest the proposed implementation of Sewer Use Rate Adjustments As a senior on a fixed income these continuous rate hikes on everything from sewer use to utilities to insurance and beyond are very challenging to keep up with. I'm not low income so don't qualify for assistance, but feel like I'm heading that way because of the increase in costs for basic needs.

Good afternoon,
We received the letter regarding the potential increase of the Pasadena sewer use fee rate adjustment and new rate structure being proposed for Fiscal Years 2025 to 2029.
We have reviewed the proposed increase and we are protesting this rate increase.
The rate increase is more than being doubled the first year (for example from $4.55 currently to $11.37) which is an astronomical 150% increase plus another approximately 16% per year for the remaining 4 years. This is not an acceptable plan for a rate increase to your residential customers. We understand the need for increases based on rising costs, but please go back and come up with a new rate structure that does not hit the customers with such dramatic increase. Perhaps something in line with an increase of 10% per year for the next 5 years but your increase will need to be re-evaluated and re- proposed.
We know we are not the only ones that feel this way as many of our neighbors are in an uproar over this particular increase.
Thankyou,
John and Donna Otoshi

Hello,
I understand that costs go up, but the rate increase request for this issue is egregious.
Please, stop spending reserves and deferring capital improvements! This has just led you to the point where you are having to ask people to accept a 300% increase to their bills. It's not the way to do things under any circumstances.
I absolutely object to this rate fee increase in its current form. The City should present a more equal rise in fees over the 5 year time period as well as vow that there will be no further funding requests during that time.
Thanks,
Michael Potkins

. I strenuously protest the proposed sewer
The City should have the necessary funds in their general fund to pay for any and all infrastructure repairs/upgrades and such repairs should be done on an ongoing basis so as to prevent higher costs when such repairs/upgrades are required by an emergency situation.
I have noticed that the City (Transportation Dept especially) spends a lot of money on unnecessary street signage, road lane changes (causing havoc with emergency and large delivery vehicles), adding separated bike lanes for a small minority of likely users, etc.
The City needs to get back to providing the necessary infrastructure, utilities, amenities, for its legal, law- abiding residents.
As a longtime Pasadena resident/property owner, I feel this would just be yet one more reason to possibly move out of the area.

I am writing in response to the proposed increases in trash and sewer services. I am willing to support rate increases but not as presented.
First of all, it is my understanding that some households received a flyer in the mail regarding the increase and others didn't.
As I recall, there was an incentive for us to reduce waste into the Landfills to go to a smaller cart and at a reduced fee to encourage recycling. Now those customers, myself included, are the ones that will be hit the hardest.
Second, I can understand an increase in operating expenses and fees but being aware of and experiencing this, why has there not been a rate increase in the past twelve years? A gradual increase would be justifiable and understandable.
Lastly, how much of this increase is due to the hiring of MSW as consultants? Don't we have staff who could have undertaken this project and avoided that expenditure? This needs to be reevaluated. I can support an increase but not this one as I feel is poor planning on the part of Public Works and City Hall.

I HEREBY PROTEST SEWER FEE RATE ADJUSTMENTS.
Genette Foster, 1748 Monte Vista Street
Pasadena CA 91106, Council District 2
April 7, 2024
The initial increase, effective July 1.2024, is 1 50% despite the fact that assumed current sewer usage is 13 hcf /month followed by an assumed reduction to 8 hcf/month for FY2025-2029. Rate adjustments also include an immediate volumetric rate increase from $0.35/hcf to $0.65/hcf and continue to increase annually. The immediate increase of 150% for the total bill as well as the overall 5-year increase of 226% is unreasonable.

The fixed fee is regressive, and most harmful to lower income and small households. The imbalance between the volumetric portion of the bill and the proposed fixed fee obscures any savings from reduced water usage, thus posing a disincentive to reduced water use.

Why are the proposed fixed fees for residential and commercial customers identical? How can Public Works assume that it is equitable to charge the same fixed fee for low income and small households as for commercial users, regardless of size? Identical fixed fees for residential and commercial customers is an unconscionable instance of REGRESSIVE PRICING POLICY.

Dear Department of Public Works Staff via [email protected], Spring Greetings!
We are writing to ask you to PLEASE DO NOT INCREASE THE RATE FOR SEWER USE. 1) We want to be certain ALL Pasadena Residents have enough time to become aware. We only received one letter. If the RATE CHANGE CAN BE adopted if less than a majority of property owners file a protest, there needs to be more time to get the word out. Multiple notifications, especially in our City Of Pasadena Water & Power Bills. 2) We DO NOT support the RATES INCREASE as proposed by the letter.
Example-Residential Average $4.55 jump to & $11.37 in 2025 is unacceptable. $6.82 difference, wow! The majority of us do not get"Cost of Living" increase that could cover these increases. The percentages of increase is TOO HIGH. 4) We understand that our City of Pasadena Public Works are the BEST in California! We also understand that there isa need to raise rates to covercostsof operating our Water/Sewer BUT these increases are TOO much for we City residents. We would support half this amount of the proposed increase.
Sincerely,
Alan & Barbara Wann

Please be advised that I strongly oppose any rate increases at this time. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income. Auto, home and health insurance has increased to the point that it has the potential for our household to struggle to make ends meet. With food prices, gas prices and EVERYTHING else rising, a fixed income is heavilytaxed. Please consideryour senior citizens before implementing any rate hikes.

Sonja k. Berndt,
Pasadena CA 91107, Council District 4
April 8, 2024
The fixed fee is regressive, and most harmful to lower income and smalt households. As councilmember-elect Rick Cole stated in an April 5, 2024 guest opinion in Pasadena Now:
"Before imposing five years of steeply rising rates, the Council should ensure not only that a consultant has studied the rising costs of providing services - but has also critically examined whether those costs can be minimized through efficiencies or alternative service delivery approaches.
Moreover, the Council should understand not only the impact on "average" households, but also the disparate impacts on those with limited incomes or subject to higher than average rates or rate increases. That takes time and effort. But given the stakes, the time and effort would be well spent."
Thankyou.

As Rick Cole said in his Guest Opinion article in Pasadena Now, the proposed rate increases seem like they are being rushed through without proper study,or attention being given to them. The Council should ensure not only that a consultant has studied the rising costs of providing services - but has also critically examined whether those costs can be minimized through efficiencies or alternative service delivery approaches. Moreover, the Council should understand not only the impact on "average" households, but also the disparate impacts on those with limited incomes or subject to higher than average rates or rate increases. That takes time and effort but given the stakes, the time and effort would be well spent.
In addition to these utility rate hikes, during the next several weeks, the City will also consider adding a $200 million bond for seismic retrofit of the Library to the November ballot. The School District has already greenlighted a proposal for a $900 million bond as well as a separate parcel tax for operations on the same ballot. All these increases on top of each other will make it almost, if not totally impossible to get by for many people, myself included! The purpose of public services is ultimately to serve the public. We need sewer, water, trash and electric services - and libraries and schools. But if they aren't affordable, what happens then? It's not a question that public servants can afford 1 4/8/2024

Garfield Avenue, Room S249, Pasadena, CA 91101, to receive public comment regarding the adoption of Sewer Use Fee rate adjustments and New Rate Structure as described below to become effective July 1,2024.
You are receiving this notice in accordance with Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution ("Proposition 218") because you are a customer or property owner of record of one or more sewer connections located within the City's service area. Proposition 218 law requires City water/wastewater service providers to notify customers so that they can participate in a public hearing regarding adjustments to water/sewer rates and charges. If more than 50% of the City's customers oppose the proposed rate adjustment(s), the City may not increase rates at this time. The Sewer Use Fee is charged to users of the sewer system to pay for the cost of operating the system, ongoing maintenance, and needed capital improvements. The current fee is based on consumers' water use. Over the last ten years, with long-term statewide drought conditions and water conservation efforts, the amount collected has not kept up with the cost of maintaining Pasadena's aging sewer infrastructure. The proposed fee increase will maintain sewer services and the financial stability of the Sewer Conveyance System. The new rate structure has a fixed rate for both residential and commercial customers plus a volumetric rate based on water consumption.
The following table shows the current rate and proposes monthly rates for the next five fiscal years. The bottom of the table shows the average single family residence bill over the next five fiscal years.

^ NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
5ED SEWEjl USE FEE RATE ADJUSTMENTS AND NEW RATE STRUCTURE 1 P.M. April 8,2024
^adena City Council Chamber
)1. Garfield Avenue, Room S249, Pasadena, CA 91101
customer:
The Pasaden^fty Council will hold a public hearing on April 8,2024, at 5:30 PM, in the City Council Chamber at 100 N. Garfield Avenue, Room S249, Pasadena, CA 91101, to receive public comment regarding the adoption of Sewer Use Fee rate adjustments and New Rate Structure as described below to become effective July 1,2024.
You are receiving this notice in accordance with Article XIII D, Section 6 of the California Constitution ("Proposition 218") because you are a customer or property owner of record of one or more sewer connections located within the City's service area. Proposition 218 law requires City water/wastewater service providers to notify customers so that they can participate in a public hearing regarding adjustments to water/sewer rates and charges. If more than 50% of the City's customers oppose the proposed rate adjustment(s), the City may not increase rates at this time. The Sewer Use Fee is charged to users of the sewer system to pay for the cost of operating the system, ongoing maintenance, and needed capital improvements. The current fee is based on consumers' water use. Over the last ten years, with long-term statewide drought conditions and water conservation efforts, the amount collected has not kept up with the cost of maintaining Pasadena's aging sewer infrastructure. The proposed fee increase will maintain sewer services and the financial stability of the Sewer Conveyance System. The new rate structure has a fixed rate for both residential and commercial customers plus a volumetric rate based on water consumption.
The following table shows the current rate and proposes monthly rates for the next five fiscal years. The bottom of the table shows the average single family residence bill over the next five fiscal years.

Dear Council Members,
As Rick Cole said in his Guest Opinion article in Pasadena Now, the proposed rate increases seem like they are being rushed through without proper study, or attention being given to them. The Council should ensure not only that a consultant has studied the rising costs of providing services - but has also critically examined whether those costs can be minimized through efficiencies or alternative service delivery approaches.
Moreover, the Council should understand not only the impact on "average" households, but also the disparate impacts on those with limited incomes or subject to higher than average rates or rate increases. That takes time and effort but given the stakes, the time and effort would be well spent. In addition to these utility rate hikes, during the next several weeks, the City will also consider adding a $200 million bond for seismic retrofit of the Library to the November ballot. The School District has already greenlighted a proposal for a $900 million bond as well as a separate parcel tax for operations on the same ballot. All these increases on top of each other will make it almost, if not totally impossible to get by for many people, myself included! The purpose of public services is ultimately to serve the public. We need sewer, water, trash and electric services - and libraries and schools. But if they aren't affordable, what happens then? It's not a question that public servants can afford to avoid addressing. Therefore, I am submitting this email as my protest of the Implementation of refuge collection fees and Sewer Use Fee Rate Adjustments. Sincerely, Janneke Briggs Sent from myiPhone

While I understand the need for the city to adjust rates to cover the costs associated with waste management services, I think they are unreasonable and burdensome to residents.

Good evening,
My name is Rafael Saenz Cervantes I have been a resident of Pasadena for over 40 years. I recently retired and I am struggling to make ends meet. An increase on my water, sewer bill will cause a great hardship to me and my family financially. I am against this increase.
Sincerely,

Opposition to water and sewage rate increases
Some people who received this message don't often get email fromearn why this is important CAUTION: This email was delivered from the Internet. Do not click links or open attachments unless you know the content is safe. Report phish using the Phish Alert Button. For more information about the Phish Alert Button view article "KB0010263" on the DolT portal.
To whom it may concern,
As small business owners and residents of Pasadena, we are writing you to express our opposition to water and sewage rate increases. The couple last year have been very challenging for small businesses and private citizens.
These new rates are set to take effect, alongside higher labor costs mandated by the city, our business is facing higher insurance costs, rent and CAM hikes due to pressure our Landlord is experiencing. At the same time, the city continues to implement programs that harm the business community, expanding bus stops for vacant bus routes (and taking away our already limited street parking to do so) and engaging contactors to perform useless "improvements" under city funded contracts. The city is throwing money away by installing new toilets and now proposing to increase our sewage rates by triple over then next few years. If the city continues to make small businesses pay for the privilege of feeling so unwelcome, we will just have to hope we can stay solvent Long enough to find an exit strategy and relocate to a city that supports the small business community rather than bully it.
As a private resident of Pasadena, I believe the rates increase will force our landlord to increase our private rent as well.
Please reconsider your decision increase these rates.
I believe I speakfor all small business owners in Pasadena when I say, give us a break, let us prosper, so we can continue to bring value to our community and sales tax revenue to city hall.
With respect,
Oksana Wilder, Kid to Kid Pasadena
