Marshall. Executive Secretary, duly appointed and qualified for Ramsey County, Minnesota do hereby certify that the foregoinq copy Is a true and correct transcript of a resolution adopted by the Board of Ramsey County Commissioners on December 8, 1975. Dated at St. Paul, Minnesota this 8th day of December 1975. ui— Ar 1i. RRY , recut ve Secretary SUPPLIMINTAL INIORMATION City of Little Canada A. Assumptions and calculations used to determine the rate structure. 1. The existing user charge ordinance is based on the number of Residential Equivalent Connections (REC's) for each type of user. 2. The average winter quarter reading from that portion of the City served by municipal water was used to establish the gall- onage per REC's at 70,000 gallons per year. 3. Businesses which are served by municipal water are charged on the basis of the average winter quarter meter reading. 4. MWCC credits are not considered in determining the sewer use charge. B. Information for determining minimum charges 1. Total cost to be paid by sewer use charges. MWCC 1975 Cost allocation. Sewer Maintenance $58 000 00 Sewer Service Area No. 1 18,500.00 Little Canada 1975 Maintenance & Operation cost. Sewer Maintenance $24.3a2 00 Depreciation & Replacement 5,000.00 Total. Sewer Costs for Municipality.$105,842.00 2. Determine cost per residential equivalent connections. Estimated number of REC's for 1975 from sewer survey data based on the ordinance. Single Family Res 851 Multiple Family Res. 137341/2 686 Mobile Homes 443 =1/2 221 Commercial 207 institutional 7 Total REC's 1,972 Total Sewer Cost. .$1.05,842_ - $53.67 (Cost per REC = Total No. of REC) 1972 Cost /REC = 54.00 = 13.50 per quarter. -1- C. Comparison of unit basis of charges. 1. Change in the unit base to 0.75 of a unit for each apartment unit and mobile home unit would result in the following: Single Family Res 851 Multiple Family Res. 0.75 of 1373 1031 Mobile Homes 0.75 of 443 332 Commercial 207 Institutional 7 Total RFC's 2,428 Total Sewer Cost. .5105,482 (Cost per REC = Total Mo. of RES) 2428 $43.44 Cost /REC = 43.44 = 11.00 per quarter. 2. Change in unit base to a full RFC for all residential units. Single Family Res 851 Multiple Family Res 1373 Mobile Homes 443 Commercial 207 institutional 7 Total RFC's 2,881 Total Sewer Cost. .$105,482 (Cost per REC = Total No. of REC) 2881 - $36.61` Cost /REC = 36.61 = 9.15 per quarter. 3. The difference in revenue generated by single family residential where the charges are based on metered water usage as compared to a flat rate, are as follows. Based on a random selection of 10 vingle family winter quarter water meter readings we found that 'the average yearly sewer flow amounted to 87,600 gallons per year. Therefore, the average cost based on actual flow is as follows: 87,600 gallons 0 0.45/1,000 gal. = 39.42 per year as compared to the flat rate of 32.00, now charged to all single family units. North Star Mobile Home Park It is our opinion that the 1975 water usage figures for this party do not represent the average usaye for mobile homes. During 1975 this particular park did have leak problems. However, it is a example of charges based on actual use as compared to a flat rate which is based on estimated average use. Winter quarter ureter reading 5,202,000 = 25,831 x 4 = 103,266 gals/ yr /unit. Cost method comparison. 103,266 x 0.45 per 1,000 gal. = 46.50 per unit. Flat rate Basis = 1/2 REC = 16.00. Based on your apartment water meter readings and other information on water usage in mobile home parks, it appears that multiple units and mobile units generate a flow equal to approximately 80; of a single family unit. RECOMMENDATIONS The Council should review this supplemental information and set a date for a special meeting for the purposes of making whatever changes are necessary in your user charge system so that it will be in compliance with the EPA Regulations. -3- G �s K J S _..c_L -2c(14 r) C5 . e nirl.,.ro r./.
