Page 18 <br /> SEWER OPERATING RATES <br /> As previously illustrated in Figure No. 6, the sewer rates necessary to break <br /> even with expenditures increase by approximately 5 percent. It is proposed <br /> that sewer rates be structured as follows: <br /> CURRENT PROPOSED START 11/1/86 <br /> 1st 10,000 g - $14.25 1st 12,000 g - $15.00 <br /> OVER 100000 g - $.85/1 ,000 g OVER 12,000 g - $1 .25/1 ,000 g <br /> Because sewer rates are calculated, based on winter quarter water consumption, <br /> the new rates are recommended for implementation, effective November 1 , 1986. <br /> This is the beginning of the calculation period for the following year. In <br /> addition, it is proposed that sewer rates be increased five cents annually <br /> through 1990 when an additional study would be done. <br /> A survey of other communities was done and the result is shown in Figure No. <br /> 14. This table indicates that with the rates as proposed, the City of Inver <br /> Grove Heights would be rated 10 out of the 13 communities listed. However, <br /> the City of Inver Grove Heights does not have penalties or other charges re- <br /> lated to servicing the community. <br />
