Public Works Director Stan Laster stated Staff had retained J. Stowe & Co. in August, 2012
to perform a Water and Wastewater Rate Review and then introduced Mr. Chris Ekrut.
Mr. Ekrut noted the City had not adjusted water and sewer rates since 2002, that the fund
balance had been utilized to cover shortfalls to maintain rates during economic downturn,
and that growth in revenue has not been sufficient to keep up with the impact of cost of
inflation, anticipated debt service, proposed capital improvements and particularly for
wholesale services. He briefed Council on the review which forecasts financial
performance of the Utility Fund's current budget through FY2016 -2017 budget.
Discussion ensued relative to water and wastewater rates that would allow for future capital
improvements, provide for debt service payments, inflation costs, and a minimum fund
balance.
There was no formal action taken by the City Council.
