V. ACTION/DISCUSSION ITEMS
A. Action: Adoption of Resolution: Authorize Staff to Release Construction Management and Resident Engineering Request(s) for Proposals for the City of Woodlake West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project Community Development Director Llamas reported the following: The City of Woodlake applied for ATP Cycle 6 funding for the construction of the West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project. The project will directly link to the improvements that were made through ATP Cycle 4 on North Valencia Blvd. This multi-modal project will close a gap on Sequoia Avenue that currently lacks sidewalk, curb, gutter, ADA ramps, streetlights, and bike lanes. Currently, there are inadequate pedestrian improvements on the north side of Sequoia Avenue from Valencia to Mulberry St. which leads to pedestrians walking on the road when going to school or athletic facilities. The gap closure would allow pedestrians and cyclists to travel between residential areas, the schools, and Antelope Creek Park.

The City was awarded $2,532,000 for the construction of the West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project via the Caltrans Active Transportation Cycle 6 grant program. The City wishes to release construction management and resident engineering request(s) for proposals for the project. 1 The project will increase multimodal transportation connectivity and multimodal transportation safety between multiple Woodlake schools, the Woodlake Downtown District, the future Woodlake Antelope Creek Park, and will build upon the active transportation network implemented by the ATP Cycle 4 project .ON A MOTION BY ORTIZ SECOND BY MARTINEZ IT WAS VOTED

E. Information: Continued Review of the Wastewater and Water System Rate Studies
City Administrator Lara reported the following: Proposition 218 requires the City to provide notice and allow opportunity for a written protest prior to implementing a utility (water and sewer) rate increase; if a majority protest is received then the rate increase cannot be adopted. If protests do not represent a “majority protest”, then the City may adopt the rate increase.

As part of the City’s annual budget process City fiscal staff analyze each individual utility fund to assure that services are being offered in the most costefficient manner and that rates are covering the cost of those services being provided. City staff has had concerns over the last few budget cycles when reviewing the water and sewer funds as reserves are being used annually to supplement the increased costs in services, supplies and labor. Increased costs plus much needed capital infrastructure projects that have been identified by the Public Works Department have put the City in a position of need for increased rates.

The City hired a consultant to examine current and projected water and sewer system revenue needs. The consultant’s analysis demonstrates a need to raise water and sewer rates. The increase in water and sewer rates is intended to fund the cost of future capital improvement projects and maintain the City’s water and sewer systems for all customers. The City is required to undergo a Proposition 218 process to increase its utility rates. Attached you will find the studies that were prepared by the consultant.

The City’s process for adopting the rate increase is as follows:

The first step is providing staff the direction to initiate the process. An affirmative vote to initiate the process was taken on April 27, 2026.

Mail notices at least 45 days before public hearing. The second step in the process of adjusting rates is to mail notices to all water and sewer customers 3 within the City’s service area. A standard letter will be sent out describing the amount of the rate adjustment, stating the effective date of the adjustment if approved, advising the customer of the protest procedure, and stating the date of the Public Hearing. Those who wish to protest must submit a written protest.

The notices were mailed to the public on May 1, 2026, in English and in Spanish.

Hold Public Hearing. On the appointed date (tentatively June 22nd), the City Council will hold a public hearing and receive testimony on the matter of the proposed rate adjustment.

Approval of resolution at same meeting as hearing. Following the Public Hearing, if a majority protest has not occurred and the City Council approves of the rate increase, the City Council will approve a resolution pursuant to Woodlake Municipal Code sections 13.04 (Water Service System) and 13.20 (Sewer Service System) with the adjusted rates.

Angela Ramirez, 241 Manzanillo, Woodlake – Ms. Ramirez asked if an interpreter could be available at the council meetings so that she could better understand the material presented. City Administrator Lara provided the material in Spanish and also translated the information for Ms. Ramirez.

Josh Diaz, 556 W. Kaweah, Woodlake – Mr. Diaz asked council if they could hold a Q&A forum to provide answers to the community regarding the Prop. 218 process.

F. Information: City of Woodlake Capital Project Updates City Administrator Lara reported the following: The City of Woodlake has many capital projects in multiple phases of development. To keep the Council and public informed, staff regularly reports on these projects at scheduled public meetings.

Capital projects citywide are in motion to prepare the City to meet its current and future needs. Key projects in infrastructure over the past few years have allowed the City of Woodlake to grow responsibly with the addition of parks, recreational facilities and utility improvements.

City Council Members
Mayor Rudy Mendoza was quoted by the Sun Gazette, exclaiming, ,,Never let a politician tell you there's never enough money... The real issue here is a lack of leadership."
Rather than paying a small, manageable amount over time to update water and sewer systems, tnl citv of Wo6orire is forced to enact steep, multi-year rate hikes to cover the accumulated backlog of emergency repairs, rising material costs, and modern regulatory mandates all at once.

Giving the billto the Residents of Woodlake to pay.

The short notice given by City Officials regarding Proposition 218 to Woodlake residents is unacceptable. Morl time ihoutd be given toWoodlake residents to protest against Proposition 21g. According to the 2026 Water and Sewer Rate study, by the end of the 5-year period, the city *ifif.rru" rorgify gf ,OOO,OOO in reserves for future Water and Sewer expenditures, along with forecasted eirnings from updated water meters after all updates are made in 2030.

Mayor Rudy Mendoza explained to the League of Women Voters of Tulare County, ,,lt feels like only lip service has been paid to that (Cutler-Orosi) community for years, and I think part of thi problem is that we don't have enough people that are willing to step up' but we're also not empowering them with the right tools and information in order to be successful."
Mayor Rudy Mendoza and City Council Members. l, Josh Diaz, step up as a candidate for WobOnf" City Corn"il, and I stanO up for the residents of Woodlake and protest against the proposed mufii-year increases to the municipal water and sanitary sewer rates under Proposition Zlg. I also ask bity Council Members Valero, Wallace, and Ortiz to support my cause and stand for their constituents.

1. Introduction

1.1 Location and Background
The City of Woodlake is a small, incorporated municipality located in northwestern Tulare County within California’s San Joaquin Valley, approximately 16 miles northeast of the City of Visalia near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. Founded in 1912 as a planned agricultural community centered on citrus production, Woodlake was incorporated in 1940 and has since developed into a close-knit, primarily residential community surrounded by intensive agricultural uses.

The City owns and operates a municipal sanitary sewer collection and treatment system serving residential, commercial, industrial, and public customers within the City limits and selected adjacent areas. The collection system includes gravity sewer mains, service laterals, manholes, trunk sewers, and lift stations that convey wastewater to the City’s wastewater treatment facility (WWTF). As with many small Central Valley communities, portions of the system were constructed over several decades and require ongoing maintenance and targeted capital reinvestment to maintain reliability and regulatory compliance.

Wastewater treatment is provided at the City’s publicly owned WWTF located south of the City near the St. Johns River. The facility has been expanded and upgraded to improve performance and capacity and is currently permitted for approximately 1.8 million gallons per day (MGD). Treatment includes secondary biological processes utilizing oxidation ditches and secondary clarification, with treated effluent disposed of through regulated percolation ponds in compliance with State and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements. The facility is designed to meet current demands and accommodate near- to mid-term growth while improving overall system resilience.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the financial condition and revenue adequacy of the City’s wastewater enterprise. The study assesses whether existing sewer rates are sufficient to recover the full cost of operations, maintenance, regulatory compliance, capital repair and replacement, debt service, and reserve contributions. The study establishes a long-term financial framework to ensure the system remains reliable, compliant, and financially sustainable while maintaining rates that are equitable, transparent, and consistent with California law. 10 May 2026 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study 2

1.2 Operations of Funds
City staff operate and maintain the WWTF, which currently functions at approximately 57 percent of permitted treatment capacity. Sewer revenues are used to fund debt service associated with prior WWTF upgrades, support day-to-day operations and maintenance, and finance improvements to the sewer collection system.

1.3 Distribution Services and Operations
The City provides wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal services to customers within City limits. The wastewater collection system consists of pipes ranging from six to 18 inches in diameter, trunk lines, and lift stations that convey flows to the WWTF. The facility is located south of the City on Valencia Boulevard, north of the airport, on property acquired from the Sentinel Butte Water Company, and operates under waste discharge requirements issued by the Central Valley RWQCB.

Approximately 35 acres of pastureland east of the treatment facility are used for effluent disposal through irrigation. The soils have high percolation rates and sufficient land area to allow evaporation.

Beef cattle periodically graze on the pastureland. System upgrades increased treatment capacity from approximately 1.0 MGD to 1.92 MGD. The current average peak flow is approximately 0.78 MGD, indicating the facility is operating at roughly 57 percent of capacity.

1.4 Scope and Objective of Study
The City of Woodlake commissioned the City Engineer to prepare a Sanitary Sewer System Rate Study to analyze the system’s revenues, expenses, proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and need for additional projects and operational changes. QK has prepared a five-year plan for operations and maintenance costs and a capital program that assisted in identifying the rate adjustments required to fund system operations.

The objective of the study is to provide a comprehensive fiscal assessment of wastewater system revenues, operating expenses, capital improvement requirements, and existing rates and fees.

Based on this evaluation, QK worked in coordination with City staff to develop a financial strategy to meet projected revenue needs over the next five years. The study identifies the annual revenue rate required to fund operating costs, debt service, capital expenditures, and reserve contributions while maintaining long-term financial stability.

The City provided documentation to support the following analysis, including:
• Woodlake Utility Billing Information
• Audited Financial Statements
• City’s Annual Budget
• Capital Projects List
• Wastewater flow data from January 2023 through December 2025 • Financial data derived from the City of Woodlake’s fee schedules 11 3 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study May 2026 Chapter 2

2. Revenue and Expense Analysis

2.1 Current Revenue and Expenses
Wastewater revenue is generated through monthly customer charges. These revenues fund personnel services, contractual services, repairs and maintenance, utilities, supplies, and debt amortization.

During FY 2022/23, total revenues were $1,692,458; FY 2023/24 revenues were $1,686,560; FY 2024/25 revenues were $1,804,558; and FY 2025/26 revenues are estimated at $1,850,000, as summarized in Table 1.

Total expenses during these fiscal years were $1,302,263, $1,693,397, $1,640,509, and $1,911,982, respectively. The wastewater enterprise experienced operating deficits in FY 2023/24 and FY 2025/26. While reserves were used to cover these shortfalls, continued reliance on reserves is not sustainable, and rate adjustments are necessary to offset long-term operating costs.

2.3 Capital Improvement Program
The City has established a CIP to monitor ongoing projects and plan for future infrastructure needs.

Planned wastewater projects focus on system integrity and capacity, including sewer line extensions, trunk line upsizing, and ongoing WWTF upgrades.

QK and City staff evaluated multiple capital funding scenarios and developed an expenditure plan that achieves regulatory compliance while minimizing rate impacts. The recommended approach incorporates projected monthly revenues, new borrowing, debt service obligations, and CIP costs.

This plan allocates funding for future wastewater projects and establishes a framework for tracking project-specific expenditures. A detailed list of five-year repair and replacement projects and associated costs is provided in Table 3.

3. Recommendation

3.1 Proposed Annual Rate Increases and Revenue Analysis Proposed rate increases maintain the customer classification structure. Rates are recommended to increase by 10 percent in the first year, then 8 percent for the second year, followed by six percent for the third year, and annually four percent for years four, and five. These adjustments are intended to restore financial stability while minimizing customer impacts. Proposed increases are summarized in Table 5.
16 May 2026 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study 8

3.2 Projected Income over Five Years
Under the recommended five-year plan, revenues are expected to stabilize and transition the wastewater enterprise toward positive net operating income. While the first year reflects a projected net loss of $164,504, and the second year to project a net loss of $63,689, operating results improve in subsequent years as rates adjust and reserve contributions are restored. Net income is projected at $65,039 in year three, $39,029 in year four, and $244,802 in year five.

Expense projections assume annual increases of three percent for salaries and workers’ compensation and two percent for all other operating costs, as shown in Table 6. Overall, the plan balances operating requirements, supports capital investment beginning in year three, and replenishes reserves depleted by prior operating losses. The five-year summary is shown on Table 7.

1. Introduction

1.1 Location and Background
The City of Woodlake is a small, incorporated municipality located in northwestern Tulare County within California’s San Joaquin Valley, situated near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada approximately 16 miles northeast of the City of Visalia. Founded in 1912 as a planned agricultural community centered on citrus production, Woodlake formally incorporated as a city in 1940 and has since evolved into a close-knit, primarily residential community surrounded by intensive agricultural land uses.

Woodlake’s domestic water system currently serves a population of approximately 7,900 residents and relies exclusively on local groundwater wells as its source of potable water. Like many communities in the Central Valley, Woodlake benefits from groundwater availability but faces longstanding challenges associated with groundwater-dependent systems, including water quality compliance, system reliability, and the financial demands of maintaining aging infrastructure.

The City must address operational costs, infrastructure repair and replacement, regulatory compliance, and long-term water supply sustainability. State and federal regulations governing drinking water quality, system resiliency, and financial self-sufficiency continue to expand, increasing the fiscal responsibility borne by local ratepayers. A comprehensive water rate study is therefore necessary to evaluate whether existing rates adequately support the full cost of providing safe, reliable, and sustainable domestic water service while remaining fair, equitable, and compliant with California law.

This study establishes a financial framework to ensure that Woodlake’s water utility can continue to meet community needs, protect public health, and responsibly plan for future system improvements in a manner consistent with the City’s historical character and regional water challenges.

1.2 Operations of Funds
The City of Woodlake manages and operates the water fund for the purposes of distributing services and collecting monthly revenue. The water fees collected from City residents, and businesses fund the daily operations of the system as well as any required maintenance, repairs and upgrades. 24 May 2026 City of Woodlake - Water System Rate Study 2

1.3 Distribution Services and Operations
The City operates a municipal, groundwater-only water system serving approximately 1.5 square miles within the City and a small adjacent service area. The system relies on seven active groundwater wells (an eighth well is disconnected due to historic nitrate exceedances), primarily located near the St. Johns River and Bravo Lake. The current system provides adequate supply today, but a need to plan for additional capacity as well as the aging of the wells and population growth occurs.

Water quality compliance is achieved without a centralized treatment plant through well-site chlorination and sand separation systems installed in 2018, which resolved prior coliform violations.

Storage is provided by two 500,000-gallon (0.5 MG) steel tanks at Castle Rock Hill and a 9,000-gallon hydropneumatic tank, totaling approximately 1.0 MG of storage. While sufficient for routine operations and short-term outages (about 17 hours without power), existing storage is below current firm storage and fire flow requirements, necessitating additional capacity to meet adopted standards.

The distribution network comprises approximately 5.3 miles of water mains ranging from six to 18 inches, with a large portion constructed of asbestos-cement pipe and newer segments of PVC.

Although the system generally meets minimum fire flow pressures, hydraulic modeling identified localized pressure and fire flow deficiencies, particularly in industrial areas and at system edges, driven by undersized mains and limited network connectivity. Overall, the system is functional and meets current demand, but aging infrastructure, inadequate storage, and pressure constraints justify planned investments in main replacements, added storage, and booster pumping to ensure compliance, reliability, and readiness for future growth.

1.4 Scope and Objective of Study
The City of Woodlake commissioned the City Engineer to prepare a Water System Rate Study to analyze the system’s revenues, expenses, proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and need for additional projects and operational changes. QK has prepared a five-year plan for operations and maintenance costs and a capital program that assisted in identifying the rate adjustments required to fund system operations.

The objective of the Study is to provide the City with a qualitative analysis of their system’s revenues, expenses, capital improvement program expenditures, current rates, and fees. After a thorough evaluation of the existing data, QK prepared a financial plan to meet the revenue needs over the next five years. The new five-year plan determined the level of annual rate revenue required to cover projected annual operating expenses, debt services, and capital cost requirements, while maintaining adequate reserves.

The City provided documentation to support the following analysis, including:
• City of Woodlake Water Rate Study 2017
• Woodlake utility billing information
• Audited Financial Statements
• City’s Annual Budget
• Capital Projects List
• California State Water Resources Control Board Drought Reports 2023-2025 • Financial data derived from the City of Woodlake’s fee schedules 25 3 City of Woodlake - Water System Rate Study May 2026 Chapter 2

2. Revenue and Expense Analysis

2.1 Audited Financial Statements
The revenue is collected on a monthly basis from customers based on the type of connection and actual water use. City expenses cover personnel services, contractual services, repairs and maintenance, utilities, other service supplies, depreciation, and amortization. During FY 2022/23, the City collected $1,313,459 in total revenue; in FY 2023/24, they collected $1,279,292; in FY 2024/25, they collected $1,325,205; and in FY 2025/26, they collected $1,360,500. These revenues are shown in Table 1. The expense totals in these same fiscal years were $1,827,419, $1,696,561, $1,398,978, and $1,687,683. QK’s evaluation identified that the City has operated in the negative for each of the five previous years evaluated. Although reserves have helped make up the difference, the City understands that this model is unsustainable and that new rates are necessary to increase revenues and offset long-term operational costs.

2.3 Capital Improvement Program
QK worked with the City to establish a CIP, that included ongoing operational capital projects as well as future infrastructure projects to ensure that the City continues to provide safe drinking water that complies with State requirements.

QK and City staff evaluated multiple capital spending scenarios and created an expenditure plan that will allow water infrastructure to be in compliance while limiting the impacts to residents. This new plan will ensure funds are withheld in place for future water infrastructure and track allocated funds for each project. A detailed list of repairs, replacement projects, and associated costs is categorized and shown in Table 3.

3. Recommendation

3.1 Proposed Annual Rate Increases and Revenue Analysis The recommended water rate adjustments are structured to reflect meter size, customer class, and volumetric consumption, while supporting long-term financial sustainability of the City’s water enterprise fund. Residential customers, and rate increases are proposed at 15 percent in Year 1, followed by 12 percent in Year 2, 10 percent in Year 3, 8 percent in Year 4, and 6 percent in Year

5. Commercial customer rates follow the same graduated structure over the five-year period. This phased approach moderates customer impact while allowing the City to progressively align revenues with the true cost of service. Details of the proposed annual rate adjustments by customer class are summarized in Table 5.

In addition, Steps 1 through 5 of the consumption-based rate structure are proposed to be consolidated into a consistent charge beginning in Year 1. The tiered consumption structure is intended to reinforce the City’s water conservation objectives by assigning progressively higher costs to excessive use. The proposed increases are derived from the annual percentage adjustments and are translated into incremental monthly base charge increases over the five-year planning horizon, as detailed in Table 6.

3.2 Projected Income over Five Years
Implementation of the recommended five-year rate plan is projected to transition the water utility to a positive net operating position in the first year, with an estimated net operating income of $474,361. Over the planning period, the adjusted rates are expected to eliminate recurring operating deficits, rebuild depleted reserves, and provide a consistent revenue stream to support capital reinvestment. Projected net operating income increases to $517,181 in Year 2, decreases to $459,300 in Year 3, increases to $476,358 in Year 4, and reaches $545,904 in Year 5. Expense projections assume conservative escalation factors consistent with industry practice, with salary and workers’ compensation costs increasing at three percent annually, and all other operating expenses increasing at two percent per year. Under these assumptions, the rate plan balances operating costs, supports annual contributions toward capital needs, and restores financial stability to the water enterprise fund over time.
32 May 2026 City of Woodlake - Water System Rate Study 10

3.3 Impact to Cash Reserves
Maintaining adequate cash reserves is a critical component of the City’s overall financial health, providing liquidity for unplanned system repairs, operational disruptions, and emergency response, while also supporting creditworthiness and fiscal resilience. As shown in Table 7, the proposed rate adjustments are projected to significantly improve the Water Fund’s cash reserve position.

Beginning in Year 1, the ending cash balance is projected to increase to approximately $323,619, with continued accumulation in subsequent years. By the end of the planning period, total water system cash reserves are projected to reach approximately $679,667, allowing the City to rebuild reserves previously drawn down, comply with recommended reserve policies, and better position the water utility to address future infrastructure needs as shown on Table 8.

AGENDA ITEM IV-C
May 26, 2026
Prepared by Emmanuel Llamas, City Staff
SUBJECT:

Action: Adoption of Resolution: Approve the Right of Way Acquisition Associated with the West Sequoia Multimodal Improvement Project Property 060-032-009 and Authorize the City Administrator to Execute All Necessary Documents
BACKGROUND:

The City of Woodlake applied for ATP Cycle 6 funding for the construction of the West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project. The project will directly link to the improvements that were made through ATP Cycle 4 on North Valencia Blvd. This multi-modal project will close a gap on Sequoia Avenue that currently lacks sidewalk, curb, gutter, ADA ramps, streetlights, and bike lanes. Currently, there are inadequate pedestrian improvements on the north side of Sequoia Avenue from Valencia to Mulberry St. which leads to pedestrians walking on the road when going to school or athletic facilities. The gap closure would allow pedestrians and cyclists to travel between residential areas, the schools, and Antelope Creek Park.

DISCUSSION:

City Staff, in conjunction with its right of way consultant Bender Rosenthal Incorporated (BRI) has been working with those owners who are adjacent to West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project to procure necessary right of way for the construction of the improvements. The City will need to purchase a sliver of property with APN No. 060-032-009 to construct the ADA compliant curb ramps and sidewalk.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Approve the partial right of way acquisition for the property adjacent to West Sequoia Multimodal Improvement project as needed for completion of the project’s improvements.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will cover the costs for right of way through RMRA fund and Local Streets funding.

ATTACHMENTS:

1. Resolution: Approve the Right of Way Acquisition Associated with the West Sequoia Multimodal Improvement Project Property 060-032-009 and Authorize the City Administrator to Execute All Necessary Documents

AGENDA ITEM IV-D
May 26, 2026
Prepared by Emmanuel Llamas, City Staff
SUBJECT:

Action: Adoption of Resolution: Approve the Right of Way Acquisition via Donation Associated with the West Sequoia Multimodal Improvement Project Property 060-210-033 & 060-040-028 and Authorize the City Administrator to Execute All Necessary Documents BACKGROUND:

The City of Woodlake applied for ATP Cycle 6 funding for the construction of the West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project. The project will directly link to the improvements that were made through ATP Cycle 4 on North Valencia Blvd. This multi-modal project will close a gap on Sequoia Avenue that currently lacks sidewalk, curb, gutter, ADA ramps, streetlights, and bike lanes. Currently, there are inadequate pedestrian improvements on the north side of Sequoia Avenue from Valencia to Mulberry St. which leads to pedestrians walking on the road when going to school or athletic facilities. The gap closure would allow pedestrians and cyclists to travel between residential areas, the schools, and Antelope Creek Park.

DISCUSSION:

City Staff, in conjunction with its right of way consultant Bender Rosenthal Incorporated (BRI) has been working with those owners who are adjacent to West Sequoia Avenue Multimodal Improvements Project to procure necessary right of way for the construction of the improvements. The City will receive a donation, from the Woodlake Unified School District, of properties with APN No. 060-210-033 & 060-040-028 to construct ADA compliant curb ramps and sidewalks.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

Approve the partial right of way acquisition via donation for the property adjacent to West Sequoia Multimodal Improvement project as needed for completion of the project’s improvements.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The City will cover the costs for right of way through RMRA fund and Local Streets funding.

AGENDA ITEM V-D
May 26, 2026
Prepared by Emmanuel Llamas and Ramon Lara, City Staff
SUBJECT:

Information: Continued Review of the Wastewater and Water System Rate Studies BACKGROUND:

Proposition 218 requires the City to provide notice and allow opportunity for a written protest prior to implementing a utility (water and sewer) rate increase; if a majority protest is received then the rate increase cannot be adopted. If protests do not represent a “majority protest”, then the City may adopt the rate increase.

DISCUSSION:

As part of the City’s annual budget process City fiscal staff analyze each individual utility fund to assure that services are being offered in the most cost-efficient manner and that rates are covering the cost of those services being provided. City staff has had concerns over the last few budget cycles when reviewing the water and sewer funds as reserves are being used annually to supplement the increased costs in services, supplies and labor. Increased costs plus much needed capital infrastructure projects that have been identified by the Public Works Department have put the City in a position of need for increased rates.

The City hired a consultant to examine current and projected water and sewer system revenue needs. The consultant’s analysis demonstrates a need to raise water and sewer rates. The increase in water and sewer rates is intended to fund the cost of future capital improvement projects and maintain the City’s water and sewer systems for all customers. The City is required to undergo a Proposition 218 process to increase its utility rates. Attached you will find the studies that were prepared by the consultant.

The City’s process for adopting the rate increase is as follows:

1. The first step is providing staff the direction to initiate the process. An affirmative vote to initiate the process was taken on April 27, 2026.

2. Mail notices at least 45 days before public hearing. The second step in the process of adjusting rates is to mail notices to all water and sewer customers within the City’s service area. A standard letter will be sent out describing the amount of the rate adjustment, stating the effective date of the adjustment if approved, advising the customer of the protest procedure, and stating the date of the Public Hearing. Those who wish to protest must submit a written protest. The notices were mailed to the public on May 1, 2026, in English and in Spanish.

3. Hold Public Hearing. On the appointed date (tentatively June 22nd), the City Council will hold a public hearing and receive testimony on the matter of the proposed rate adjustment.
175

4. Approval of resolution at same meeting as hearing. Following the Public Hearing, if a majority protest has not occurred and the City Council approves of the rate increase, the City Council will approve a resolution pursuant to Woodlake Municipal Code sections

13.04 (Water Service System) and 13.20 (Sewer Service System) with the adjusted rates.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

This is an information item.

FISCAL IMPACT:

No fiscal impact on the General Fund. Rate increases are needed in the Water and Sewer Funds to increase revenues that will offset increasing expenditures.

1 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study May 2026 Chapter 1

1. Introduction

1.1 Location and Background
The City of Woodlake is a small, incorporated municipality located in northwestern Tulare County within California’s San Joaquin Valley, approximately 16 miles northeast of the City of Visalia near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada. Founded in 1912 as a planned agricultural community centered on citrus production, Woodlake was incorporated in 1940 and has since developed into a close-knit, primarily residential community surrounded by intensive agricultural uses.

The City owns and operates a municipal sanitary sewer collection and treatment system serving residential, commercial, industrial, and public customers within the City limits and selected adjacent areas. The collection system includes gravity sewer mains, service laterals, manholes, trunk sewers, and lift stations that convey wastewater to the City’s wastewater treatment facility (WWTF). As with many small Central Valley communities, portions of the system were constructed over several decades and require ongoing maintenance and targeted capital reinvestment to maintain reliability and regulatory compliance.

Wastewater treatment is provided at the City’s publicly owned WWTF located south of the City near the St. Johns River. The facility has been expanded and upgraded to improve performance and capacity and is currently permitted for approximately 1.8 million gallons per day (MGD). Treatment includes secondary biological processes utilizing oxidation ditches and secondary clarification, with treated effluent disposed of through regulated percolation ponds in compliance with State and Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) requirements. The facility is designed to meet current demands and accommodate near- to mid-term growth while improving overall system resilience.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the financial condition and revenue adequacy of the City’s wastewater enterprise. The study assesses whether existing sewer rates are sufficient to recover the full cost of operations, maintenance, regulatory compliance, capital repair and replacement, debt service, and reserve contributions. The study establishes a long-term financial framework to ensure the system remains reliable, compliant, and financially sustainable while maintaining rates that are equitable, transparent, and consistent with California law. 180
May 2026 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study 2

1.2 Operations of Funds
City staff operate and maintain the WWTF, which currently functions at approximately 57 percent of permitted treatment capacity. Sewer revenues are used to fund debt service associated with prior WWTF upgrades, support day-to-day operations and maintenance, and finance improvements to the sewer collection system.

1.3 Distribution Services and Operations
The City provides wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal services to customers within City limits. The wastewater collection system consists of pipes ranging from six to 18 inches in diameter, trunk lines, and lift stations that convey flows to the WWTF. The facility is located south of the City on Valencia Boulevard, north of the airport, on property acquired from the Sentinel Butte Water Company, and operates under waste discharge requirements issued by the Central Valley RWQCB.

Approximately 35 acres of pastureland east of the treatment facility are used for effluent disposal through irrigation. The soils have high percolation rates and sufficient land area to allow evaporation.

Beef cattle periodically graze on the pastureland. System upgrades increased treatment capacity from approximately 1.0 MGD to 1.92 MGD. The current average peak flow is approximately 0.78 MGD, indicating the facility is operating at roughly 57 percent of capacity.

1.4 Scope and Objective of Study
The City of Woodlake commissioned the City Engineer to prepare a Sanitary Sewer System Rate Study to analyze the system’s revenues, expenses, proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and need for additional projects and operational changes. QK has prepared a five-year plan for operations and maintenance costs and a capital program that assisted in identifying the rate adjustments required to fund system operations.

The objective of the study is to provide a comprehensive fiscal assessment of wastewater system revenues, operating expenses, capital improvement requirements, and existing rates and fees.

Based on this evaluation, QK worked in coordination with City staff to develop a financial strategy to meet projected revenue needs over the next five years. The study identifies the annual revenue rate required to fund operating costs, debt service, capital expenditures, and reserve contributions while maintaining long-term financial stability.

The City provided documentation to support the following analysis, including:
• Woodlake Utility Billing Information
• Audited Financial Statements
• City’s Annual Budget
• Capital Projects List
• Wastewater flow data from January 2023 through December 2025 • Financial data derived from the City of Woodlake’s fee schedules 181

2. Revenue and Expense Analysis

2.1 Current Revenue and Expenses
Wastewater revenue is generated through monthly customer charges. These revenues fund personnel services, contractual services, repairs and maintenance, utilities, supplies, and debt amortization.

During FY 2022/23, total revenues were $1,692,458; FY 2023/24 revenues were $1,686,560; FY 2024/25 revenues were $1,804,558; and FY 2025/26 revenues are estimated at $1,850,000, as summarized in Table 1.

Total expenses during these fiscal years were $1,302,263, $1,693,397, $1,640,509, and $1,911,982, respectively. The wastewater enterprise experienced operating deficits in FY 2023/24 and FY 2025/26. While reserves were used to cover these shortfalls, continued reliance on reserves is not sustainable, and rate adjustments are necessary to offset long-term operating costs.

2.3 Capital Improvement Program
The City has established a CIP to monitor ongoing projects and plan for future infrastructure needs.

Planned wastewater projects focus on system integrity and capacity, including sewer line extensions, trunk line upsizing, and ongoing WWTF upgrades.

QK and City staff evaluated multiple capital funding scenarios and developed an expenditure plan that achieves regulatory compliance while minimizing rate impacts. The recommended approach incorporates projected monthly revenues, new borrowing, debt service obligations, and CIP costs.

This plan allocates funding for future wastewater projects and establishes a framework for tracking project-specific expenditures. A detailed list of five-year repair and replacement projects and associated costs is provided in Table 3.

3. Recommendation

3.1 Proposed Annual Rate Increases and Revenue Analysis Proposed rate increases maintain the customer classification structure. Rates are recommended to increase by 10 percent in the first year, then 8 percent for the second year, followed by six percent for the third year, and annually four percent for years four, and five. These adjustments are intended to restore financial stability while minimizing customer impacts. Proposed increases are summarized in Table 5.

May 2026 City of Woodlake - Wastewater System Rate Study 8

3.2 Projected Income over Five Years
Under the recommended five-year plan, revenues are expected to stabilize and transition the wastewater enterprise toward positive net operating income. While the first year reflects a projected net loss of $164,504, and the second year to project a net loss of $63,689, operating results improve in subsequent years as rates adjust and reserve contributions are restored. Net income is projected at $65,039 in year three, $39,029 in year four, and $244,802 in year five.

Expense projections assume annual increases of three percent for salaries and workers’ compensation and two percent for all other operating costs, as shown in Table 6. Overall, the plan balances operating requirements, supports capital investment beginning in year three, and replenishes reserves depleted by prior operating losses. The five-year summary is shown on Table 7.

1 City of Woodlake - Water System Rate Study May 2026
Chapter 1

1. Introduction

1.1 Location and Background
The City of Woodlake is a small, incorporated municipality located in northwestern Tulare County within California’s San Joaquin Valley, situated near the foothills of the Sierra Nevada approximately 16 miles northeast of the City of Visalia. Founded in 1912 as a planned agricultural community centered on citrus production, Woodlake formally incorporated as a city in 1940 and has since evolved into a close-knit, primarily residential community surrounded by intensive agricultural land uses.

Woodlake’s domestic water system currently serves a population of approximately 7,900 residents and relies exclusively on local groundwater wells as its source of potable water. Like many communities in the Central Valley, Woodlake benefits from groundwater availability but faces longstanding challenges associated with groundwater-dependent systems, including water quality compliance, system reliability, and the financial demands of maintaining aging infrastructure.

The City must address operational costs, infrastructure repair and replacement, regulatory compliance, and long-term water supply sustainability. State and federal regulations governing drinking water quality, system resiliency, and financial self-sufficiency continue to expand, increasing the fiscal responsibility borne by local ratepayers. A comprehensive water rate study is therefore necessary to evaluate whether existing rates adequately support the full cost of providing safe, reliable, and sustainable domestic water service while remaining fair, equitable, and compliant with California law.

This study establishes a financial framework to ensure that Woodlake’s water utility can continue to meet community needs, protect public health, and responsibly plan for future system improvements in a manner consistent with the City’s historical character and regional water challenges.

1.2 Operations of Funds
The City of Woodlake manages and operates the water fund for the purposes of distributing services and collecting monthly revenue. The water fees collected from City residents, and businesses fund the daily operations of the system as well as any required maintenance, repairs and upgrades. 194
May 2026 City of Woodlake - Water System Rate Study 2

1.3 Distribution Services and Operations
The City operates a municipal, groundwater-only water system serving approximately 1.5 square miles within the City and a small adjacent service area. The system relies on seven active groundwater wells (an eighth well is disconnected due to historic nitrate exceedances), primarily located near the St. Johns River and Bravo Lake. The current system provides adequate supply today, but a need to plan for additional capacity as well as the aging of the wells and population growth occurs.

Water quality compliance is achieved without a centralized treatment plant through well-site chlorination and sand separation systems installed in 2018, which resolved prior coliform violations.

Storage is provided by two 500,000-gallon (0.5 MG) steel tanks at Castle Rock Hill and a 9,000-gallon hydropneumatic tank, totaling approximately 1.0 MG of storage. While sufficient for routine operations and short-term outages (about 17 hours without power), existing storage is below current firm storage and fire flow requirements, necessitating additional capacity to meet adopted standards.

The distribution network comprises approximately 5.3 miles of water mains ranging from six to 18 inches, with a large portion constructed of asbestos-cement pipe and newer segments of PVC.

Although the system generally meets minimum fire flow pressures, hydraulic modeling identified localized pressure and fire flow deficiencies, particularly in industrial areas and at system edges, driven by undersized mains and limited network connectivity. Overall, the system is functional and meets current demand, but aging infrastructure, inadequate storage, and pressure constraints justify planned investments in main replacements, added storage, and booster pumping to ensure compliance, reliability, and readiness for future growth.

1.4 Scope and Objective of Study
The City of Woodlake commissioned the City Engineer to prepare a Water System Rate Study to analyze the system’s revenues, expenses, proposed Capital Improvement Program (CIP), and need for additional projects and operational changes. QK has prepared a five-year plan for operations and maintenance costs and a capital program that assisted in identifying the rate adjustments required to fund system operations.

The objective of the Study is to provide the City with a qualitative analysis of their system’s revenues, expenses, capital improvement program expenditures, current rates, and fees. After a thorough evaluation of the existing data, QK prepared a financial plan to meet the revenue needs over the next five years. The new five-year plan determined the level of annual rate revenue required to cover projected annual operating expenses, debt services, and capital cost requirements, while maintaining adequate reserves.

The City provided documentation to support the following analysis, including:
• City of Woodlake Water Rate Study 2017
• Woodlake utility billing information
• Audited Financial Statements
• City’s Annual Budget
• Capital Projects List
• California State Water Resources Control Board Drought Reports 2023-2025 • Financial data derived from the City of Woodlake’s fee schedules 195

2. Revenue and Expense Analysis

2.1 Audited Financial Statements
The revenue is collected on a monthly basis from customers based on the type of connection and actual water use. City expenses cover personnel services, contractual services, repairs and maintenance, utilities, other service supplies, depreciation, and amortization. During FY 2022/23, the City collected $1,313,459 in total revenue; in FY 2023/24, they collected $1,279,292; in FY 2024/25, they collected $1,325,205; and in FY 2025/26, they collected $1,360,500. These revenues are shown in Table 1. The expense totals in these same fiscal years were $1,827,419, $1,696,561, $1,398,978, and $1,687,683. QK’s evaluation identified that the City has operated in the negative for each of the five previous years evaluated. Although reserves have helped make up the difference, the City understands that this model is unsustainable and that new rates are necessary to increase revenues and offset long-term operational costs.

2.3 Capital Improvement Program
QK worked with the City to establish a CIP, that included ongoing operational capital projects as well as future infrastructure projects to ensure that the City continues to provide safe drinking water that complies with State requirements.

QK and City staff evaluated multiple capital spending scenarios and created an expenditure plan that will allow water infrastructure to be in compliance while limiting the impacts to residents. This new plan will ensure funds are withheld in place for future water infrastructure and track allocated funds for each project. A detailed list of repairs, replacement projects, and associated costs is categorized and shown in Table 3.

3. Recommendation

3.1 Proposed Annual Rate Increases and Revenue Analysis The recommended water rate adjustments are structured to reflect meter size, customer class, and volumetric consumption, while supporting long-term financial sustainability of the City’s water enterprise fund. Residential customers, and rate increases are proposed at 15 percent in Year 1, followed by 12 percent in Year 2, 10 percent in Year 3, 8 percent in Year 4, and 6 percent in Year

5. Commercial customer rates follow the same graduated structure over the five-year period. This phased approach moderates customer impact while allowing the City to progressively align revenues with the true cost of service. Details of the proposed annual rate adjustments by customer class are summarized in Table 5.

In addition, Steps 1 through 5 of the consumption-based rate structure are proposed to be consolidated into a consistent charge beginning in Year 1. The tiered consumption structure is intended to reinforce the City’s water conservation objectives by assigning progressively higher costs to excessive use. The proposed increases are derived from the annual percentage adjustments and are translated into incremental monthly base charge increases over the five-year planning horizon, as detailed in Table 6.

3.2 Projected Income over Five Years
Implementation of the recommended five-year rate plan is projected to transition the water utility to a positive net operating position in the first year, with an estimated net operating income of $474,361. Over the planning period, the adjusted rates are expected to eliminate recurring operating deficits, rebuild depleted reserves, and provide a consistent revenue stream to support capital reinvestment. Projected net operating income increases to $517,181 in Year 2, decreases to $459,300 in Year 3, increases to $476,358 in Year 4, and reaches $545,904 in Year 5. Expense projections assume conservative escalation factors consistent with industry practice, with salary and workers’ compensation costs increasing at three percent annually, and all other operating expenses increasing at two percent per year. Under these assumptions, the rate plan balances operating costs, supports annual contributions toward capital needs, and restores financial stability to the water enterprise fund over time.

3.3 Impact to Cash Reserves
Maintaining adequate cash reserves is a critical component of the City’s overall financial health, providing liquidity for unplanned system repairs, operational disruptions, and emergency response, while also supporting creditworthiness and fiscal resilience. As shown in Table 7, the proposed rate adjustments are projected to significantly improve the Water Fund’s cash reserve position.

Beginning in Year 1, the ending cash balance is projected to increase to approximately $323,619, with continued accumulation in subsequent years. By the end of the planning period, total water system cash reserves are projected to reach approximately $679,667, allowing the City to rebuild reserves previously drawn down, comply with recommended reserve policies, and better position the water utility to address future infrastructure needs as shown on Table 8.

NOTICE

TO PROPERTY OWNERS AND PRIMARY RATE PAYERS REGARDING A

PUBLIC HEARING

ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE SANITARY SEWER

RATES FOR THE CITY OF WOODLAKE
TO BE HELD:

June 22,2026,6:30 P.M.

AT:

City Council Chambers
145 N. Magnolia St., Woodlake, CA 93286
Notice is given that the City of Woodlake ("City") will hold a public hearing on June 2212026, at 6:30 p.m., to consider proposed sanitary sewer-rate increases and to receive public comments and written protests. The public hearing will be held at the address above. This notice is sent to City sewer customers and property owners in the service area.

The Sanitary Sewer Rate Study is available at City Hall (350 N. Valencia Btvd.) during regular business hours.

Whv New Sewer Rates are Needed
The City's Sewer Rate Study found current revenues are not sufficient to cover sewer-system expenses now and over the next five years. The study recommends five annual increases to cover (not exceed) the cost of service.

On April 28,2026,the City Council accepted the Sewer Rate Study and directed staff to send this notice initiating the Proposition 218 process. The proposed rate schedule is included.

Sewer-service costs have increased (regulatory requirements, staffing, power, materials, and needed repairs/replacements). The study assumes some major projects will be delayed or funded by grants when available.

The City is required by law to collect, treat, and safely dispose of waste in a way that protects public health and the environment. To meet these requirements, the City must maintain the sewer system, respond to failures, and repair or replace aging infrastructure. Regulatory requirements and costs are expected to continue increasing.

Without increases, the sewer fund may face a deficit, and the City may need to reduce maintenance and delay projects-leading to more breakdowns, slower service, higher future costs, and possible fines.

Proposed Rate Changes for Sewer Service
Currently, sewer customers are charged a monthly fixed charge, based on classification.

Residential, commercial, industrial, and large multi-family residential customers are charged a fixed charge per dwelling unit. Under the proposed rate structure, all customers will continue to pay a monthly fixed charge based upon classification.

205
w PROPOSITION 218
Notice of Public Hearing on Proposed Sewer Rate Increase Wori oln xE
If adopted, the proposed sewer rate changes will take effect July 7, 2026. Because costs are projected to continue to rise, the Rate Study recommends additional annual increases each July 1 thereafter, for a total of five scheduled increases (July l, 2026,through July 1,2030).

Methodologv of allocating fees among svstem users
The Rate Study reviewed sewer-use data by service connection to estimate wastewater flows and each customer group's share of system demand. Based on those estimates, the Study allocates the sewer system's revenue needs among customer classifications.

Pursuant to California Government Code section 53759, any judicial action or proceeding to attack, review, set aside, void, validate, or annul an ordinance, resolution, or motion adopting a fee or charge for water or sewer service, or modifuing or amending an existing fee or charge for water or sewer service, shall be commenced within 120 days of the effective date or of the date of the final passage, adoption, or approval of the ordinance, resolution, or motion, whichever is later.

To Protest the Proposed Sewer Rate Increases
Majority protest: the City cannot adopt the proposed rates if a majority of affected property owners and rate-paying tenants submit written protests before the hearing closes.

To protest, submit a written protest by mail or in person to 350 N. Valencia Blvd., Woodlake, C493286 It must be received before the hearing closes. One protest per property will be counted.

To be counted, a written protest must include:
(l) the property owner or rate-paying tenant's name; (2) the property street address or Assessor's Parcel Number (APN); (3) a statement objecting to the proposed rate increase; and (4) the protester's original signature.

Protests missing any of this information will not be counted. If you have any questions about this Notice, please contact the City office at (559) 564-8055.

Se notifica que la Ciudad de Woodlake (la "Ciudad") llevard a cabo una audiencia priblica el 22 de junio de2026ra las 6:30 p. m., para considerar aumentos propuestos de tarifas del alcantarillado y para recibir comentarios del priblico y protestas por escrito. La audiencia priblica se llevar6 a cabo en la direcci6n indicada arriba. Este aviso se envia a los clientes de Alcantarillado de la Ciudad y a los propietarios dentro del 6rea de servicio.

El Estudio de Tarifas del Alcantarillado estS disponible en el Ayuntamiento (350 N. Valencia Blvd.) durante el horario regular de oficina.

Por Ou6 Se Necesitan Nuevas Tarifas De Alcantarillado
El Estudio de Tarifas de Alcantarillado de la Ciudad determin6 que los ingresos actuales no son suficientes para cubrir los costos del sistema de alcantarillado ahora y durante los pr6ximos cinco afios.

El estudio recomienda cinco aumentos anuales para cubrir (sin exceder) el costo del servicio.

El 28 de abril de 2026, el Concejo Municipal acept6 el Estudio de Tarifas de Alcantarillado y dio instrucciones al personal para enviar este aviso. La tabla de tarifas propuestas se incluve en este aviso.

Los costos del servicio de alcantarillado han aumentado (requisitos regulatorios, personal, energia, materiales y reparaciones/reemplazos necesarios). El estudio asume que algunos proyectos importantes se retrasarSn o se financiarSn con subvenciones cuando est6n disponibles.

La Ciudad est6 obligada por ley a recolectar,tratar, y disponer de manera segura los alcantarillados residuales de una forma que proteja la salud priblica y el medio ambiente. Para cumplir con estos requisitos, la Ciudad debe mantener el sistema de alcantarillado, responder a fallas, y reparar o reemplazar infraestructura envejecida. Se espera que los requisitos regulatorios y los costos continrien aumentando.

Sin aumentos, el fondo del alcantarillado podria enfrentar un d6ficit y la Ciudad podria tener que reducir el mantenimiento y retrasar proyectos, lo que ocasionaria mds fallas, un servicio m6s lento, mayores costos futuros y posibles multas por el estado.

ON PROPOSED CHANGES TO THE WATER RATES FOR

THE CITY OF WOODLAI(E
TO BE HELD:

June 22,2026,6:30 P.M.

AT:

City Council Chambers
145 N. Magnolia St., Woodlake, CA 93286
Notice is given that the City of Woodlake ("City") will hold a public hearing on June 22,2026, at 6:30 p.m.o to consider proposed water-rate increases and to receive public comments and written protests.

The public hearing will be held at the address above. This notice is sent to City water customers and property owners in the service area.

The Water Rate Study is available at City Hall (350 N. Valencia Blvd.) during regular business hours.

Whv New Water Rates are Needed
The City's Water Rate Study found current revenues are not sufficient to cover water-system expenses now and over the next five years. The study recommends five annual increases to cover (not exceed) the cost of service.

On April 28,2026,the City Council accepted the Water Rate Study and directed staff to send this notice initiating the Proposition 218 process. The nronosed rate schedule is included.

Water-service costs have increased (regulatory requirements, staffing, power, materials, and needed repairs/replacements). The study assumes some major projects will be delayed or funded by grants when available.

State law requires the City to provide safe drinking water and maintain a reliable system. Maintenance, repairs, and required improvements are becoming more expensive.

Without increases, the water fund may face a deficit and the City may need to reduce maintenance and delay projects-leading to more breakdowns, slower service, higher future costs, and possible fines. 1 210

C{maras del Concejo Municipal
145 N. Magnolia St., Woodlakeo CA 93286
Se notifica que la Ciudad de Woodlake (la "Ciudad") llevar6 a cabo una audiencia priblica el 22 de junio de 2026, a las 6:30 p. m.r para considerar aumentos propuestos de tarifas del agua y para recibir comentarios del pirblico y protestas por escrito. La audiencia priblica se llevarS a cabo en la direcci6n indicada aniba. Este aviso se envia a los clientes de agua de la Ciudad y a los propietarios dentro del 6rea de servicio.

El Estudio de Tarifas de Agua est6 disponible en el Ayuntamiento (350 N. Valencia Blvd.) durante el horario regular de oficina.

Por Ou6 Se Necesitan Nuevas Tarifas De Asua
El Estudio de Tarifas de Agua de la Ciudad determin6 que los ingresos actuales no son suficientes para cubrir los costos del sistema de agua ahora ni durante los pr6ximos cinco affos.

El estudio recomienda cinco aumentos anuales para cubrir, sin exceder, el costo del servicio.

El 28 de abril de 2026, el Concejo Municipal acept6 el Estudio de Tarifas de Agua y dio instrucciones al personal para enviar este aviso. Se incluye la tabla de tarifas propuestas.

Los costos del servicio de agua han aumentado (requisitos regulatorios, personal, energia el6ctrica, materiales y reparaciones o reemplazos necesarios). El estudio supone que algunos proyectos importantes seriin retrasados o financiados mediante subvenciones cuando est6n disponibles.

La ley estatal exige que la Ciudad proporcione agua potable segura y mantenga un sistema confiable. El mantenimiento, las reparaciones y las mejoras requeridas son cada vez m6s costosos.

Sin aumentos, el fondo de agua podria enfrentar un ddficit y la Ciudad podrfa verse obligada a reducir el mantenimiento y retrasar proyectos, lo que ocasionaria m6s fallas, servicio m6s lento, costos futuros m6s altos y posibles multas.
