The city disputes as to whether the additional charges for the removal of dirt are inside or outside of the contract.

City Attorney Salinas stated that Ms. Gonzalez sued the city claiming that she tripped on a city sidewalk and suffered personal injuries. The city took the position that it is not responsible for the injuries she sustained because the area of the sidewalk where she fell was trivial in nature and could not have been the approximate cause, as a matter of law, for her injuries. The city went to trial on that matter at the Van Nuys Branch of the Los Angeles Superior Court. The trial lasted approximately 3 days. The city requested that the judge split the trial in parts, which he did. The first part was a request to the judge that he rule whether or not the condition of the sidewalk, as a matter of law, was a trivial defect. The city prevailed during the trial and the remainder of the case was dismissed. Judgement will be entered in favor of the City of South Gate and no money will be paid in connection with that claim.

Ms. Elguira stated that we used to have the first-time home buyers' program. The city is still receiving revenue from the first-time home buyers that are paying off their loans, selling or refinancing.

Chris Jeffers, City Manager stated that the program originally started through tlie Coinrnunity Redevelopment program so the guidelines are much different than HUD. HUD is more restrictive.

Vice Mayor Hurtado asked if a person qualifies for the first-time buyer program must they live in it or are they allowed to rent the home. Are they allowed to build an ADU?
Mr. Jeffers stated that staff would need to check with HUD.

Mayor Avalos requested a CDBG of $10,000 to help residents.

Council Member Barron asked if this item can be approved with the recommendations from staff.

Council Member Davila asked from where are the $10,000 coming from.

Mayor Avalos suggested $5,000 from Family Violence and $5,000 from Police Explorers.

Council Member Davila disagrees. The city has provided enough money for Compatior. The council has yet to receive any information that was requested. She suggested moving with the staff's recorni'nendations.

SUBJECT: CONSIDERATION OF ALTERNATIVE N0. 2 RATE LEVEL

ADJUSTMENT FROM THE SEWER RATE STUDY REPORT AND AGREEMENT WITH NBS FINANCIAL GROUP FOR SUPPORT SERVICES FOR PROP 218

PROCESS
PURPOSE: To select an alternative from the Sewer Rate Study to propose changes to the Sewer Rate Stnicture and undertake the required Proposition 218 process. An agreement with NBS Financial Group is recommended to provide support services for the Prop 218 process and public outreach.

RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: The City Council will consider:
a. Receiving and filing the Sewer Rate Study Report;
b. Selecting Alternative No. 2 of the Sewer Rate Study for the proposed sewer rate structure changes and directing staff to initiate the Proposition 218 process; c. Approving an Agreement with NBS Financial Group (NBS) in an amount not to exceed $32,500 to conduct the required Proposition 218 process, including educational material development; and
d. Authorizing tlie Mayor to execute the Agreement in a form acceptable to the City Attorney.

FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to the General Fund. The costs associated with Proposition 218 process, including the proposed agreement with NBS is in the amount of $32,500 which will be 'funded with Sewer Funds budgeted in the Fiscal Year 2023/24 0perating Budget.

The sewer operations are classified as an Enterprise Fund, which usually requires such business operations to be fully supported by charges to customers of the service. Currently, the rate structure for the Sewer Fund generates approximately $1.17 million, aru'iually. The total costs for the Sewer Fund, annually, are about $2 million, with other funds (including the General Fund) subsidizing those costs. In addition, the current rate structure does riot allow for the funding of major capital improvement projects which would fall upon the General Fund to provide funding.

Revenue for the Sewer Fund is generated by a sanitary sewer service charge that appears on the monthly utility bills. The existing sewer rate is currently $0.35 per hundred cubic feet based on 1 824
70% of the total water consumed, which generates an annual revenue of approximately $1.17 million.

ANALYSIS: The Sewer Fund has been operating in an annual deficit which is subsidized by the General Fund. For the Fiscal Year 2021/22, the Sewer Fund received approximately $768,000 in subsidy from both the General Fund and Water Funds to cover expenses. Over the next five years, tlie fund balance deficit is expected to increase to approximately $2.08 million based on the current rates. The 5-Year Financial Forecast for the Sewer Fund, as currently structured, is summarized in Table 4 at the end of this report.

A Sewer Rate Study was prepared to assess the Sewer Fund and identify three feasible alternatives for changing the sewer rate structure and increasing the sewer rate to eliminate the deficit and General Fund subsidy. On March 28, 2023, the City Council was presented with the three alternatives. Based on input, there was consensus that it was necessary to further consider proceeding with the proposed sewer rate structure changes and with Alternative No. 2.

Each alternative proposes to increase rates as well as change the billing structure. The current billing structure is based on a variable rate that consists of a set sewer rate ($0.35) for all property types multiplied by the customer's water usage (Sewer Bill = Sewer Rate x Water Usage). The less water used, the lower the sewer bill is for a customer. The current rate was established in 2010 and has not been adjusted since that time.

The recoinmended proposed rate structure includes a fixed rate plus variable rate [Sewer Bill = Fixed Rate + (Sewer Rate x Water Usage)]. As proposed, the continuation of the variable rate allows residents to control their bill based on actual usage. The fixed rate provides revenue needed for the City's fixed operating cost which remains the same regardless of water usage.

Staff is recommending selecting Alternative No. 2, shown on Table 2 below. Alternative No. 2 proposes a rate increase of 100% in Fiscal Year 2022/23, and a 10%, 10%, 5% and 2% rate increase in Years 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively. A typical residential property monthly bill would increase from $3.50 to $6.49 in the first fiscal year and then up to $8.58 over a 5- year period. While this alternative provides the largest rate increase in the first year, it results in the lowest overall rate increase to $8.58 over the 5-Year period as compared to $10.08 and $8.61 for Alternatives Nos. 1 and 3 shown on Tables 2 and 3, respectively at the end of this report. The impact of the rate increase to commercial properties would depend on their water consumption.

Industrial $0.35 $0.83 $0.92 $1.02 $1.08 $1.11
Other $0.35 $0.83 $0.92 $1.02 $1.08 $1.11
The City conducted a brief rate comparison with eight cities which include the cities of Long Beach, Norwalk, Lynwood, Whittier, and other cities in LA County. The City's current sewer rate was the lowest. Further, with the recommended Alternative No. 2, the proposed sewer rate increase will result in the City's rates still being the lowest at the beginning of implementation.

At the end of five years of rate increases, the City's sewer rate would be the third lowest of the cities surveyed, even presuming that no other surveyed city would raise their rates over the next five years, which is unlikely.

In suininary, the sewer rate study identifies an estimated deficit in the Sewer Fund starting at $1.02 million this fiscal year and increasing to $2.08 million in Fiscal Year 2026/27. Due to the deficit, the City does not have sufficient Sewer Funds for priority needs such as for a reserve fund, fully funding operations and funding capital projects. The study presented three alternatives to restructure and increase the sewer rate. The general consensus was that the City should consider proceeding with a proposal to change and increase the sewer rate structure. The City Council directed the City Manager to begin finalizing the sewer rate study and to further consider initiating the Prop 218 process to change the sewer rate structure and increase rates.

Proposition 218
At this time, the City Council is not being requested to approve changing the sewer rate structure and adjusting rates. Staff is recommending that the City Council take action to proceed with the proposal for changes to the sewer rate structure through the Proposition 218 process. The process includes Selecting Alternative No. 2 of the Sewer Rate Study for the proposed changes to the sewer rate structure and rate adjustments; awarding an agreement for consultant services; and receiving and filing the Sewer Rate Study Report.

Implementing a rate adjustment requires approval through the Proposition 218 process. In order to increase the sewer fee rate, the City must engage in a process mandated by the California State Constitution. In 1996 voters adopted Proposition 218, which added Articles XIII C and XIII D to the State Constitution. Those new Articles say that most propertyrelated fees constitute taxes, which may not be created or increased without certain public approvals. Although sewer fees fund a critical health service, sewer fees cannot be raised if a majority of the property owners served by the sewer system object. In order for a local government to increase a sewer fee, it must follow these procedures established by Proposition 218:

1. A public hearing before the City Council must be scheduled. At least 45 days prior to the public hearing, the City must mail a notice to the record owner of each parcel of real property served by the sewer system and affected by the proposed fee increase.

The notice must specify the proposed fee increase, the total amount chargeable to all of the parcels, the amount chargeable to the owner's particular parcel, the duration of the fee increase, tlie reason for the fee increase, the basis upon which the amount of 3 826
the proposed fee increase was calculated, and tlie time, date and location of the public hearing on the proposed fee increase. The notice must also contain a ballot on which the property owner may indicate his or her name, identify the owner's parcel, and indicate the owner's support or opposition to the proposed fee increase. The notice must include, in a conspicuous place, a summary of the procedures applicable to the completion, return, and tabulation of the ballots, including a disclosure statement that the existence of a majority protest will result in the fee increase not being imposed.

2. At the Public Hearing, the City Council shall consider all protests against the proposed fee increase and tabulate the ballots. The City may not impose the fee increase if there is a majority protest. A majority protest exists if, upon the conclusion of the hearing, ballots submitted in opposition to the fee increase exceed the ballots submitted in favor of the fee increase. In tabulating the ballots, the ballots shall be weighted according to the proportional financial obligation of the affected property.

3. If a majority protest does not exist, the legislative body may then approve and adopt the rate increase by resolution. It is important to note that only ballots/statements cast by the property owner or legal representative are valid.

To proceed with the proposed rate structure changes, staff will need consultant services. The City Manager's Office received two proposals to provide assistance to comply with the Proposition 218 process including the required community outreach.

Consultant Fee Proposal
Harris and Associates $16,000
NBS Financial Group $32,500
A selection coinmittee was assembled to interview and rank the consultants, which included the Administrative Services Director and the Assistant City Manager/Director of Public Works.

Interviews were conducted on May 24'h to allow each fin'n to present their proposed methodology for community outreach and engagement and present their la'iowledge of compliance requirements. While both firms are able to guide and consult the City on Prop 218 compliance, NBS was ranked higher for their community engagement.

NBS's and Harris' proposals varied noticeably with NBS offering Prop 218 support services and an extensive public outreach program. Harris' proposal mainly includes Prop 218 support services and minimal outreach, thus, the difference in fees. It is recommended to proceed with NBS since the outreach services will be essential to educate residents of the need for a rate increase. NBS proposes to use its proprietary software CivicMic to engage and inform the community regarding the proposed increase. Additionally, NBS proposes to have multilingual workshops to address any residents and business concerns.

Based on the legal requirements under the state constitution, should the City Council decide to move forward with seeking approval of the sewer rate adjustment, we would likely be asking the City Council to approve the Resolution of Intent in July whicli would set the Public Hearing in 4 827
September.

BACKGROUND: The City owns and operates a municipal sanitary sewer system which provides services to properties citywide. The sewer system is comprised of nearly 120 miles of sewer mainlines, 19,500 sewer lateral services and 2,400 manholes. The Public Works Department is responsible for the management of the sewer system. The maintenance and operation generally requires daily staffing, equipment, vehicles and contract services.

The sewer system is managed in accordance with the 2006 state requirements which are outlined in the State Water Resources Control Board Order No. 2006-0003-DWQ titled Statewide General Waste Discharge Requirements for Sanitary Sewer Systems (State Order). The State Order standardizes the requirements to facilitate proper funding and management of sanitary sewer systems, by requiring a system-specific Sewer System Management Plan (SSMP). SSMPs must include provisions to provide proper and efficient management, operation, and maintenance of sanitary sewer systems, while taking into consideration risk management and cost benefit analysis. In Section 9 of "D. Provision," the State Order stipulates "The Emollee shall allocate adequate resources for the operation, maintenance, and repair of its sanitary sewer system, by establishing a proper rate structure, accounting mechanisms, and auditing procedures to ensure an adequate measure of revenues and expenditures."
The condition of the sewer system was evaluated in the 2019 Sewer Master Plan (Master Plan).

The Master Plan is a comprehensive capital needs assessment of the sanitary sewer system. The plan identified several priority projects such as repairs to prevent sewage spills. It identified $3.5 Million in funds needed to repair and upgrade the existing sewer system, which are now estimated at over $4 Million. However, the City has received ARPA funds of which $600,000 are programmed for sewer improvements in FY 2022/23. It is the intent of staff to allocate more ARPA funds toward sewer projects over the next 18-months if they can be designed and bid with the timelines stipulated in the federal regulations. Initial estimates are between $1.5 Million to $2.0 Million. Using these funds is assisting in lowering the rate increase needed to ensure the sewer infrastructure remains intact.

The City established the sewer enterprise fund to address costs due to the maintenance and improvement of the sewer system. Since 1965 the City has collected fees from residents based on water consumption to contribute to the maintenance and operation of the City's sewer system.

The City is required to provide the current sewer system service and maintain its continued operation throughout the City. The sewer fund obtains its revenue based on a $0.35 charge per 100 cubic feet of water or 748 gallons used by residents, businesses and industry. The last modification to the City's rate was conducted in 2010.

There are three alternative scenarios in the Sewer Rate Study. Each alternative proposes to increase rates as well as change the billing structure. The current billing structure is a flat sewer rate to all property types based on the usage of water (Variable Rate). The proposed rate structure includes a Fixed Rate plus Variable Rate. The Variable Rate proposed allows for residents to control their bill based on actual usage. The Fixed Rate provides revenue needed for the City's fixed operating cost which remain the same regardless of water usage. The proposed billing structure allows for the variable rate charged to be less while still securing an equitable contribution to the Sewer Fund to fully fund the City's needs. 5 828
The rate increase is proposed to meet the needs of the sewer program over the next five years.

The rates would provide for eliminating the projected operations and maintenance deficits previously shown in the 5-year projection.

The three alternatives are surni'narized in Tables 1, 2 and 3. It should be noted that the impact on all users will vary depending on their water consumption but single-family households will also have a fixed fee.

Following are some example Sewer District projects that Harris has worked on. References can be provided upon request.

Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District
City of Benicia
Harris has assisted the City in the district engineerin@ for their assessment district and associated five zones. The work includes the creation of new district engineer's reports and administration of Proposition 218 hearings to increase the assessments in all five districts in Benicia, incorporatin@ an automatic index for future increases.

Sewer Rate Update and Wastewater Utility Billing
City of Stanton
Harris has been placing the City's wastewater charges on the Orange County property tax roll for collection for over 15 years. Since the City does not provide water service to its residents and is only responsible for the maintenance of the wastewater collection system, its wastewater charges were originally based upon parcel size for non-residential parcels. Harris recently assisted the City in restructuring the City's wastewater charges to comply with the requirements of Proposition 218 by basing the City's wastewater charges upon average wastewater discharge rates by business type. The measurement is 1,000 per building area based upon data developed by the Orange County Sanitary District, which is responsible for treatment. The recommended wastewater rates provide the City with the revenue needed for maintenance of the wastewater collection system, as well as provide funds for capital improvements based upon the City's recent sewer master plan update. As part of the update, Harris also prepared and coordinated the mailing of the required notices to property owners/rate payers of the change. Harris also prepared the required resolutions and ordinance revisions for implementation of the new rate structure. The new rate structure modified the existing rate structure to confirm that the rate charged to parcels was proportional to their use of the system as required by Proposition 218.

Table 1: Current Rate
I All Customer Classes $0.35
i.5. Process and Approach
Raftelis held several meetings with City staff to discuss and understand the objectives, characteristics, and challenges of the City's sewer utility to provide the recommendations and results detailed in tis report. Raftelis confirmed various assumptions and inputs and used an iterative process to view several scenarios to determine the recommended financial plan and sewer rates for service. City staff discussed the capital project requirements over a 5-year horizon, which is an essential driver of the future revenue needs of the utility. 866
The proposed fu'iancial plan detailed in this report follows industty standards for long-term financial planning. The financial plan relies on reasonable assumptions based on industry indices, such as general inflation based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and input from City Staff. Raftelis worked closely with City staff to determine the most accurate methodology to project future revenues and expenses to reinforce sound fiscal management practices.

The fu'iancial plan includes the current FY 2022 and the five-year period between FY 2023 to FY 2027. The cost of service analysis and resulting sewer rates are developed using the principles established by the Water Environment's Federation's (WEF) Matzual ofPracticeNo. 27. i.6. Legal Requirements
Proposition 218, reflected in the California Constitution as Article XIII D, was enacted in 1996 to ensure that rates and fees are reasonable and proportional to the cost of providing service. The principal requirements, as they relate to public wastewater service, are as fonows:

1. A property-related charge (such as wastewater rates) imposed by a public agency on a parcel shall not exceed the costs required to provide the property related service.

2. Revenues derived from the charge shall not be used for any purpose other than that for which the charge was imposed.

3. The amount of the charge imposed upon any parcel shall not exceed the proportional cost of service attributable to the parcel.

4. No charge may be imposed for a service unless that service is actually used or immediately available to the owner of the property.

5. A written notice of the proposed charge shall be mailed to the record owner of each parcel at least 45 days prior to the public hearing when the agency considers all written protests against the charge.

Water and wastewater rates and charges should be recovered from classes of customers in proportion to the cost of serving those customers. Proposition 218 makes clear that wastewater rates cannot be "arbitrary and capricious," meaning that the rate-setting methodology must be sound and that there must be a nexus between the costs and the rates charged. Raftelis followed industg standard rate-setting methodologies set forth by the Water Environment Federation (WEF) to ensure that the City's wastewater rates do not exceed the proportionate cost of providing wastewater collection services.

1.7. Organization of the Report
This Report includes three sections in addition to the Executive Summary and this Overview. A brief description of the remaining sections follows:

1. Financial Plan - describes the long-range financial plan for the sewer utility and overall revenue requirements from rates used to determine the costs of service and rates during the study period.

2. Cost of Service - describes the sewer cost of service methodology, which includes allocating costs to sewer parameters and determining unit cost.

3. Rates and Bill Impacts - includes the derivation of sewer rates and customer impacts resulting from the proposed rates.

CITY OF CHARLOTTE WATER AND WASTEWATER FINANCIAL PLAN STUDY REPORT -ff-867
i.8. Financial Plan
In order to determine the revenue adjustments required to meet the ongoing expenses of the City and provide fiscal stability, Raftelis projected the revenue requirements, including operations and maintenance (O&M) expenses, capital improvement expenditures, debt service costs, reserve requirements, etc., for the study period FY 2023- 2027. O&M expenses include the cost of operating and maintaining the collection system lines as well as the cost of providing technical services such as engineering services and other administrative costs of the sewer system such as billing and customer service. O&M projections are based on the City's FY 2022 budget using a set of key inflationary factors starting in FY 2023 to project all O&M expenditures related to general expenses, salaries, and benefits. Figure I shows the projected sewer financial plan, including O&M expenses, and revenues under the current and proposed rates over the planning period.

In addition to the operating expense, the City has planned capital expendiffires over the next five years (FY 2023- 2027) totaling approximately $3.1 M (adjusted for inflation). The sewer utility does not have any existing debt and does not anticipate issuing new debt during the study period. The City expects to receive grant funds of $1.15 million to fund the sewer capital projects. Figure 2 shows the inflation-adjusted sewer CIP funding plan over the planning period, rounded to the nearest thousand.

To ensure the City will have adequate revenues to fund sewer operating and capital expenses and to maintain sufficient reserves, Raftelis recommends the revenue adjustments in Table 2 in accordance with the financial plan.

These increases are required to fu'iance the capital and operating expenditures, inclusive of inflationary pressure.

Table 2: Recommended Revenue Adjustments

Figure 3 shows the resulting fund balance for the sewer utility, given the revenue increases listed in Table 2. The dark blue line represents the total fund balance target, which is composed of operating and capital reserves targets consistent with industry standards. Financial reserves for the sewer fund are established by several criteria for various reserve components. The operating reserve target is set at 25 percent of the operating expenses to provide working capital and meet unanticipated operating expenses. The capital reserve target is set at 100 percent of annual capital expenditures to provide funds for capital projects. Under the proposed financial plan the utility will meet its target reserves in FY 2027.

1.9. Cost of Sece Analysis and Rate Calculation
To calculate fair and equitable rates so that users pay in proportion to the cost of providing service, Raftelis performed a cost allocation of the total revenue requirements consistent with industry standards. This Report was prepared using the principles established by WEF, which establishes commonly accepted professional standards for cost-of-service studies. The general principles of rate stnucture design and the objectives of the Report are described further in section 4. Costs to serve different customer classes are determined; rates are then designed to recover the costs equitably from different customer classes.

1.10. Proposed Sewer Rates
The City's current rate stnicture consists of a single uniform commodity rate for all customer classes. Raftelis recommends that the City change its rate structure to a fixed plus variable rate stnicture for single family residential customers and a variable rate stmcture for all other customers, but subject to a minimum charge to recover the fixed costs of the wastewater enterprise. This rate stnucture is more consistent with the cost of service, is more equitable between customer classes, and allows for more revenue stability. Table 3 shows the proposed rates for FY 2023 through FY 2027. These rates are effective on May 1, 2023, and in January of each subsequent calendar year.

2. Financial Plan
This section of the report describes the sewer fund and the proposed financial plan. To develop the financial plan, Raftelis projected annual revenues and expenses, modeled reserve balances, and projected capital expenditures to estimate the amount of additional rate revenue needed each year. Numbers shown in the tables of this section are rounded. Therefore, hand calculations based on the displayed numbers, such as summing or multiplying, may not equal the exact results shown.

2.1. System Background
The City is located in Los Angeles County south of the downtown area. South Gate covers approximately 7.5 square miles and is bordered by the cities of Huntington Park, Cudahy Bell, Downey, Lynwood, and Paramount.

The City's Public Works Department manages a sewer collection system with approximately 120 miles of gravity sewer pipelines that serve the City's population of about 100,000. The collection system primarily discharges into County Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County (LACSD) facilities for transportation, treatment, and disposal.

2.2. Current Rates
The City's current sewer rates were implemented several years ago and include a uniform variable rate per hundred cubic feet (hcf) of water use for all customer classes. Table 5 shows the current variable rate. Customers are charged monthly.

Table 5: Current Rate
I All Customer Classes $0.35
:2.3. Account Usage and Assumptions
Table 6 shows the estimated number of sewer accounts for the study period. No growth is anticipated in the number of accounts served since the City is almost entirely built out. The number of accounts is used to forecast the amount of water usage and fixed revenue the City will recover in the proposed rates presented in section 4.

This section describes the assumptions used in projecting operating and capital expenses as well as reserve coverage requirements that determine the overall revenue adjustments required to ensure the fu'iancial stability of the City's utility. Revenue adjustments represent the average increase in rates for the utility as a whole. Rate changes for individual classes depend on the cost of service analysis described in section 3.

To ensure that fumre costs are reasonably projected, it is necessary to make informed assumptions about inflationary factors and water use. Table 8 shows the inflationary assumptions approved by staff and incorporated in the five-year financial plan. O&M projections are based on the City's FY 2022 budget using the inflationary factors to project all O&M expenses related to general expenses, salaries, and benefits.

The assumptions shown above are incorporated into the five-year financial plan. To develop the financial plan, Raftelis projects annual expenses and revenues, models reserve balances and capital expenditures, and calculates debt service coverage ratios to estimate the amount of additional rate revenue required each year. This section of the report provides a discussion of the projected revenue under existing rates, O&M expense, the capital improvement plan (CIP), reserve funding, and the revenue adjustments needed to ensure the fiscal sustainability and solvency of the City's sewer utility.

Table 10 shows the sewer utility's projected revenues for the Study period. City staffprovided budgeted revenues for FY 2022. Other non-rate revenues were projected throughout the Study period. Sewer rate revenues are equal to the calculated rate revenues at current rates for FY 2023 and beyond. Miscellaneous, non-rate revenues are inflated using the corresponding revenue escalation factor. Interest income is calculated based on the reserve interest rate and projected fund balances.

2.5.3.DEBT SERVICE
The wastewater utility has two existing lines of debt service. Table 12 shows the payment schedules for the existing debt during the Study period. The first is the sewer share of a 2019 water revenue refunding bond with debt service payments starting in FY 2023. The second is a utility authority sewer lease with service payments also starting in FY 2023. It is important to note that the sewer lease payments are not included in the debt coverage calculations and will therefore be listed under O&M expenses in the cash flow.

Net revenue is equal to total revenues, less O&M expenses. Net cash flow is equal to net revenue less debt service and cash-funded CIP. Beginning balances for FY 2023 are negative because the utility is currently operating in the red. Ending,balances are calculated by adding beginning balances to the net cash flow. The reserve target is 25% of aru'iual operating expenses and 100% of annual capital expenditures. Under the status quo scenario, the sewer fund will continue to operate in the red and never meet reserve targets. 53 876
Figure 4 shows the projected status quo fu'iancial plan in graphical format. The bars represent the sewer utility's cash needs: O&M expenses (dark green), debt service (light green), capital projects (yellow), and reserve funding (blue). The solid line represents the current revenues, which is below the stacked bars for all years, signifying that the City's sewer revenues are not sufficient to fund its costs.

2.5.6.PROPOSED FINANCIAL PLAN AND REVENUE ADJUSTMENTS
The proposed revenue adjustments help ensure adequate revenue to fund operating expenses and execute the capital improvement schedule. The fu'iancial plan model assumes the revenue adjustment occurs on May 1, 2023,

CITY OF CHARLOTTE WATER AND WASTEWATER FINANCIAL PLAN STUDY REPORT 877
and in January of each subsequent year. The proposed revenue adjustments will enable the City to execute the CIP and build sufficient reserves by the end of the five-year study period. The proposed revenue adjustments represent the increase to total rate revenues required to recover the water utility's costs and not the expected impact to each customer class.

Table 15Error! Reference source not found. shows the projected revenue adjustments applied to the sewer rate revenues.
878
Table 16 shows the proposed financial plan with the revenue adjustments ftaom Table 15. Revenues from interest income are greater than those shown in the status quo scenario due to additional cash from the proposed adjustments. O&M expenses, debt service, and cash funded CIP are the same as the status quo scenario. Net cash flow is positive in FY 2024 and beyond, which means the City will be funding its reserves in those years. Net cash flow is negative in FY2023, which means that the city will be drawing down its fund to pay for its expenses.

3. Cost of Sexice Anailysis

3.t. Cost-Based Rate-Setting Methodology
This section discusses the allocation of O&M expenses and capital costs to sewer functions, cost components, and the determination of unit costs and rate calculation by customer class. The proposed sewer utility costs of service for the City weredevelopedconsistentwith the guidelines detailed in T)VEFManual ofPractice No. 27.

To develop utility rates that align with Proposition 218 requirements and industry standards wMe meeting other emerging goals and objectives of the utility, there are four major steps discussed below:

3.1.1.CALCULATE REVENUE REQUIREMENT
The first step in the cost-of-service analysis is distributed among customer classes commensurate with their service requirements. A cost-of-service analysis involves the following:

1. Functionalize O&M and capital costs into functions: since the City's wastewater utility is a collection only system, the only function is collection.

2. Allocate the costs from each function to cost causation components: Our only component for the City is flow.

3. Establish the wastewater flow by each customer class

4. Calculate the unit cost component rate by dividing the total cost in the collection component in Step I by the flow in Step 2

5. Calculate the cost by each customer class by multiplying the unit cost components in Step 4 by the flows established in Step 3.

3.1.2.RATE DESIGN AND CALCULATIONS
Rates do more than simply recover costs. Within the legal framework and industry standards, properly designed rates should support and optimize a blend of various utility objectives, such as affordability, revenue stability, and equity among customers, amongst other objectives. Rates may also act as a public information tool in communicating these objectives to customers.

3.1.3.RATE ADOPTION
Rate adoption is the last step of the rate-making process. Raftelis documents the rate study results in this Study Report to help educate the public about the proposed changes, the rationale and justifications behind the changes, and their anticipated financial impacts in lay terms.

3.2. Cost of Sece Analysis
The principles and methodology of a cost of service analysis were described in the preceding section. A cost of service analysis distributes a utility's revenue requirements (costs) to each customer class. After determining a utility's revenue requirements, the next step in a cost of service analysis is to functionalize O&M based on the City's current O&M classification. Since the sewer service only provides collection, all O&M costs are allocated to the collection function. The functionalization of costs allows us to better allocate the functionalized costs to the cost causation components

CITY OF CHARLOTTE WATER AND WASTEWATER FINANCIAL PLAN STUDY REPORT 883

3.2.1.ALLOCAT10N OF FUNCTIONALIZED EXPENSES TO COST COMPONENTS After functionalizing expenses, the next step is to allocate the functionalized expenses to cost causation components. Since the primary cost function is conection, all system costs are allocated to a flow cost causation component.

3.2.2.REVENUE REQUIREMENT DETERMINATION
Table 17 shows the revenue requirement derivation with the total revenue required from rates. The total shown in the "Operating" and "Capital" columns are the total O&M and capital revenue requirements, respectively, that are allocated to the cost component.

Raftelis calculates the revenue requirement using projected FY 2023 expenses, which include O&M expenses and funded capital expenses. To arrive at the rate revenue requirement, we make adjustments for annual cash balances.

Since the proposed rate adjustment will not take place at the start of the fiscal year, we have to annualize the rate increase, which will lead to an increase in the revenue requirement. The adjustments are subtracted to arrive at the total revenue requirement from rates. This is the amount that the rates are designed to collect.

3.2.3.COST OF SERVICE
Our end goal is to proportionately distribute the costs to each user class. First, we must determine a cost allocation basis. To do so, we use the estimates of sewer generation for each user class. The sewer generation by customer class was sourced from the 2019 Sewer Master Plan. Table 18 shows the sewer generation percentages (also called reffirn to sewer) by class. Single family customers have higher irrigation usage, which is why their generation percentage is the lowest. Other customer classes have higher sewer generation percentages because they have more indoor usage as a percentage of total usage.

Table 19 shows the unit cost calculation per hcf of wastewater generated. This unit cost is then multiplied by the wastewater produced by each customer class (reference) in Table 18 to determine the total revenue to be recovered by each class.

4. Rate Derivation
Impacts

4.t. Existing Rate Structure and Rates
The City's existing rate stmcture consists of a uniform variable charge based on a customer's water use for all customer classes. All customers are billed on a monthly basis. The current sewer rate can be seen in Table 5.

4.:2. Rate Calculation
Since customers are charged per hcf ofwater use, rates are calculated by dividing the proposed revenue by the projected water use for each customer class. This calculation is shown in Table 21. To increase revenue stability, and cover a portion of the fixed costs, the City decided to recover half of the single family residential revenue through a montMy fixed rate. Table 22 shows the calculation of the fixed and variable rates for single family customers. 50% of the proposed revenue will be recovered by each rate. This revenue was divided by the number of accounts and by 12 months to calculate the monthly SFR rate, and the other half was divided by the projected water usage to calculate the variable rate.

4.3. Proposed Rates
The proposed rate for single family customers will be revised to include a fixed charge to collect a portion of the revenues from fixed charges. The balance of the revenue requirement will be collected from the variable rate. Since 886
most of the sewer costs are fixed, this ensures that all customers pay at least a minimum cost to cover the expenses.

The remaining customers, including multi-family, commercial, and industrial customers, will continue to be charged a variable rate based on the wastewater they generate. However, they will be subject to a minimum fixed charge, which is the same as the fixed charge for single family customers, if their charge calculated based on the variable rate falls below that minimum fixed charge. The proposed rates for FY 2023 through FY 2027 are shown in Table 23. The rates after FY 2023 are increased by the revenue adjustments shown in Table 15Error! Reference source not found..

Prop 218 Process to Increase Rates
o Sewer rate increases are subject to Prop 218. Sewer rates are property-related fees which constitute taxes, which may not be increased without certain public approvals. a Section 6 ofArticle Xlll D, pertaining to "Property Related Fees and Charges" outlines requirements to increases fees.
> Mailing a notice to all property owners with pertinent information (proposed increase, structure, reasoning, and time and place for the Public Hearing). > Hold Public Hearing and consider all testimony given and accept all protests filed by written notice or testifying at the public hearing.
> If a majority protest exists (50% plus one), rates may not be increased by Council action.
> If a majority protest does not exist, Council may adopt a rate increase. 16 - There are approximately 15,526 parcels within the City; therefore, it would take receiving approximately 7,7ei4 votes in opposition to a fee increase. 903
