Executive Summary 3 <br /> <br /> City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota – Water and Sewer Rate Study Update <br />The proposed rates are: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />As in the first scenario, these volumetri c rates would need to be increased <br />by 2.0% annually 2014-2017. <br /> <br />Scenario 3 –Uniform Rate for All Use/All Users <br />Scenario 3 assumes one rate for all use of all users. The 2013 rate for all <br />users; residential, non-residential, and non-residential irrigation customers is <br />recommended to be $2.16 per 1,000 gallons to meet revenue requirements. <br /> <br />A uniform rate structure is estimated to alter the total revenues generated <br />from each customer class as follows: <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />As <br />in the first two scenarios, these volumetri c rates would need to be increased <br />by 2.0% annually 2014-2017. <br /> <br />Scenario 4 –Revised Block Rate Structure <br />The final option reviewed is to keep a block rate structure, whereby the <br />price of water increases with volume consumed, but reduce the number of <br />blocks from five to three for residential and from three to two for non- <br />residential and non-residential irrigati on. The following block rate structure <br />is proposed in order to meet revenue requirements: <br /> <br />Proposed 2013 Residential Rates <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Proposed 2013 Non-Residential Rates <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Residential Non-Residential Non-Residential <br />Irrigation <br />2013 $2.02 $2.21 $3.40 <br /> <br />Residential Non- <br />Residential <br />Non- <br />Residential <br />Irrigation <br />Current Rates 77% 10% 13% <br />Proposed Rate 82% 10% 8% <br /> Residential <br />0 – 30,000 gallons $1.89 <br />30,001 – 50,000 $2.09 <br />> 50,000 $2.91 <br /> Non-Residential <br />0 – 50,000 gallons $2.04 <br />> 50,000 $2.30
