TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Owasso FROM: Sherry Bishop Assistant City Manager SUBJECT: Resolution 2016 -14 Stormwater System Service Rates DATE: September 2, 2016 BACKGROUND: S�cp CpG 060,6 Mc�� On August 16, 2016, City Council approved Resolution 2016 -13 adopting stormwater system service charges. There was an error in the wording of the resolution. Language establishing a minimum per month fee for non - residential customers was not included in the approved resolution. This proposed Resolution 2016 -14 includes language establishing a minimum charge of two ESU. HISTORY: The Stormwater utility was established by Ordinance 754 in 2003 and is codified in Section 18, The Rate Structure is described in Section 18 -302. Residential properties are assigned one ESU per dwelling unit. The impervious surface of "all other lots" (non- residential) is measured to determine the Equivalent Service Units (ESU) to be assigned. An ESU is defined as 3,000 square feet of impervious surface. Section 18 -501 authorizes the stormwater system services charges for each ESU to be established by City Council resolution. The original rate per ESU was $2.50 established in 2003. Residential customers were charged $2.50 for one ESU. All other customers (non - residential) were charged a minimum of two ESU or $5.00. In 2010, the rate for residential customers was increased to $3.00 for one ESU. The non - residential rate ($2.50 per ESU with a $5.00 minimum) was not changed. RESOLUTION 2016 -13: Last month, City Council approved Resolution 2016 -13 adopting stormwater system service charges to be implemented over the next five years. Language that established a minimum per month fee for non - residential customers was inadvertently omitted from the new resolution. Failure to include the minimum monthly fee would result in a loss of revenue and a reduction in the monthly billing for approximately 700 non - residential customers. RESOLUTION 2016 -14: Proposed Resolution 2016 -14 would replace Resolution 2016 -13 and adds the minimum charge language omitted from the resolution approved in August. Section Three of the resolution describes the service charge for non - residential customers. The words, "Provided however, in no case, shall the monthly fee be less than the fee for two (2) ESU" are added. This language would allow the existing structure for the minimum fee to continue with annual increases as defined in the resolution. Wording has also been inserted in Section Two of the resolution where the service charge for residential customers is described. The words "for each dwelling unit' are added to clarify how the charge would be applied if more than one home was billed together. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends approval of Resolution 2016 -14 adopting rates for stormwater system service charges including a minimum monthly fee for non - residential customers.
