MEMORANDUM
TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIR AND TRUSTEES
OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY
FROM: TIMOTHY D. ROONEY
ASSISTANT CITY MANAGER
SUBJECT: OPWA RESOLUTION NO. 2007-02
OPWA RESOLUTION NO. 2007-03
OPWA RESOLUTION NO. 2007-04
ESTABLISHING WATER, SEWER, AND REFUSE RATES
DATE: April 26, 2007
BACKGROUND:
At the April 17, 2007 regular meeting, the Owasso City Council reviewed and approved rate
and fee adjustments for the services provided by the City of Owasso and the Owasso Public
Works Authority. The rates and fee adjustments recommended by staff were the result of a
comprehensive review beginning in November of 2006.
Several of the approved rate increases require formal action by the Owasso Public Works
Authority, the Owasso City Council, or both. In the case of all utility rate adjustments -
water, sewer, and refuse, it is necessary for the OPWA Trustees to formally adopt the planned
rate increases via Resolution.
OPWA Resolution No, 2007-02, 2007-03, and 2007-04 would formally adopt the rate
increases approved by the City Council at the April 17, 2007 meeting.
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
If adopted by the OPWA Trustees, the effective date of the rate increases would be October 1,
2007 and October 1, 2008 respectively.
RECOMMENDATION:
The staff recommends Trustee adoption of OPWA Resolution No. 2007-02, 2007-03, and 2007-
04.
