These increases were included as a precautionary measure to help avoid large rate increases associated with failing to increase rates over longer periods of time and to mitigate any notice of rate increase received from the City of Tulsa ( Owasso's water supplier). Additionally, revenues gained from water, wastewater, and stormwater rate increases facilitate the City's compliance with more stringent Federal requirements and provide funding for the Capital Improvements necessary to ensure Owasso's water distribution and management system is up -to -date and capable of managing a quickly growing population. The estimated net results of these rate increases will be to pay the City of Tulsa approximately $145,000 in increased water costs, and for Owasso to receive an additional $155,000 in utility - generated revenue from water, wastewater, and drainage fees. The current and proposed fee structure for utility services is presented below.

The proposed rate increase to rural customers would be $36 per first 1000 gallons and $35 per 1000 gallons thereafter. The impact of the proposed rate increases on an average water customer would be approximately $2.99 per month, or about $35.88 annually. The Owasso Public Works Authority establishes utility rates by resolution and those rates are adopted by an ordinance approved by the City Council. ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS: Ordinance No. 968 adopts rates for water and sewer service effective October 1, 2010 as established by OPWA Resolutions 2010 -04 and 2010 -05. The base rate for water would be $10.84 with the usage rate per 1000 at $4.27. Customers outside the city limits would pay $13.01 for the base rate and $5.12 for the usage rate, 20% more than customers inside the city. Sewer rates would be $6.97 for the base and $2.55 per 1000 gallons of usage. City Council Resolution No. 2010 -09 increases stormwater system service rates for residential customers effective October 1, 2010. The monthly service charge for the stormwater system would be $3.00 for each single - family residential property, an increase of fifty cents. OPWA Resolution No. 2010 -04 increases water rates effective October 1, 2010. The base rate for water would be $10.84, an increase of thirty cents. The usage rate per 1000 of water would be $4.27, also an increase of thirty cents. Customers outside the city limits would pay $13.01 for the base rate and $5.12 for the usage rate, 20% more than customers inside the city. OPWA Resolution No. 2010 -05 increases sanitary sewer rates effective October 1, 2010. The base rate for sewer would be $6.97, an increase of fourteen cents. The usage rate per 1000 gallons would be $2.55, an increase of five cents. Customers outside the city limits pay the same rate for sanitary sewer service. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Trustee approval of OPWA Resolution No. 2010 -04, adopting rates for water service within and without the corporate limits of the City of Owasso to become effective October 1, 2010.

PASSED, ADOPTED AND APPROVED THIS 20th DAY OF JULY, 2010. THE OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY Doug Bonebrake, Chairman ATTEST: Sherry Bishop, Authority Secretary APPROVED AS TO FORM: Julie Lombardi, City Attorney MEMORANDUM TO: THE HONORABLE CHAIR AND TRUSTEES OWASSO PUBLIC WORKS AUTHORITY FROM: STEVEN F. ALBERT, P.E., CFM CITY ENGINEER SUBJECT: ODEQ CONSENT ORDER NO. 10 -036 SUBMISSION OF ENGINEERING REPORT DATE: July 16, 2010 BACKGROUND: The Owasso Public Works Authority (OPWA) received notification on November 30, 2009 of a notice of violation issued by the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) as a result of wastewater bypasses that occurred between February 21, 2007 and January 16, 2010. A Consent Order dated January 27, 2010 was issued to the City after staff attended a hearing with ODEQ to discuss the issue and establish a mutually acceptable program for resolving the matter. One of the requirements of the Order stated that the City must "Submit an approvable Engineering Report to ODEQ that describes options for collection system improvements that will eliminate the chronic SSO's [bypasses] at 10605 E 114'h Street and improvements to the Santa Fe Lift Pump Station. The report shall be accompanied by a letter signed by the Respondent's Chairman endorsing the report and authorizing its submission to ODEQ as a requirement of this Consent Order." Since the issuance of the Consent Order, a consultant (Greeley and Hansen) has been contracted to undertake the design of the new Santa Fe Pump Station and Force Main. A second consultant (Kellogg Engineering) has also been contracted to design a new gravity sewer to add sewer capacity to the Hale Acres area and remove the existing Meadowcrest Lift Station. Both consultants are making excellent progress and are on schedule with their designs. ENGINEERING REPORT(S): Three separate reports were prepared to fully comply with the requirements of the Consent Order. They are briefly described as follows: 1. Santa Fe Lift Station and Force Main Replacement — Engineering Report prepared by Greeley and Hansen Engineers presenting the need for the lift station upgrade, the alternatives considered, and details of the proposed project including wet well, pump and force main sizing. A cost estimate is included for each alternative including initial capital costs and life cycle operating costs for comparison of the alternatives. 2. Proposed Meadowcrest Gravity Sewer Line Project — Engineering Report prepared by Kellogg Engineering demonstrating the feasibility of installing a gravity sewer to allow the removal of the Meadowcrest Lift Station and to provide service to a new sanitary service area. The report includes definition of the service area, plan and profile drawings, establishment of the sewer line size requirements, a cost estimate, a draft of the ODEQ Application for Permit to Construct and a draft of the ODEQ Engineering Report Form. 3. Hale Acres Area Sanitary Sewer System Study — Engineering Report prepared by Steven F. Albert, P.E., City Engineer, presenting an analysis of existing sanitary sewer capacity and flows within the Hale Acres sewer service area related to the chronic bypass location at 10605 East 114th Street North. The report presents recommendations on changes needed to the system to resolve the bypass problem. One of the recommendations of the third report is that the southern portion of the Hale Acres sanitary sewer basin be diverted to a new gravity sewer main. This recommendation resulted in the project to construct the Meadowcrest Gravity Sewer Line which is the subject of the second report listed above. Together, the three reports will be combined into a single submittal to ODEQ and will serve collectively as the "Engineering Report" required under the Consent Order issued January 27, 2010. A copy of the report can be provided upon request. REQUESTED ACTION: This request is for Trustee authorization for the OPWA Chairman to sign the letter of endorsement with direction to submit the Engineering Report(s) to the Director of ODEQ. Additional action items specific to each improvement project will be forthcoming in the next one to three years. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends Trustee authorization for the OPWA Chairman to endorse the "Engineering Report" and authorization to execute the document. ATTACHMENTS: A.
