AGENDA
Meeting Date: April 6, 2022 Item Number: 8.C.
Subject:
Adoption of Ordinance Amendments Relating to the Department of Utilities' Fee Changes
Board Action Requested:
Adopt amendments to Sections 18-22, 18-27, and 18-114 of the County Code Relating to the Department of
Utilities’ fee changes
Summary of Information:
The Board of Supervisors held a public hearing on March 23, 2022 concerning the proposed changes to
Utilities fees.
The Utilities Department’s analysis of the FY2023 budget, capital replacement and maintenance projects, and
projections over the next ten years indicate that current revenues, without fee increases, will not be sufficient to
cover operating and capital expenses. As an enterprise fund fully supported by payments from users, fee
increases are necessary to offset costs of capital projects for rehabilitation of pump stations, new and
replacement water tanks, new and replacement water and wastewater lines, investments in older neighborhoods
to replace water and wastewater lines, the county’s contractual share of Richmond water plant projects, as well
as maintaining the integrity of the county’s water and wastewater facilities. The additional revenues are
required to meet the projected longer term operating and capital costs. This rate setting approach supports a
financial plan to manage current and projected capital expenses and is prudent financial management necessary
to maintain the triple AAA bond rating. The proposed changes in utility rates are displayed below.
Fee: Rate:
Customer cost charges $5.08 /month
Water commodity cost charge $2.36/CCF
Water capacity cost charge $7.95/ERU/month
Wastewater commodity cost charge $2.43/CCF
Wastewater capacity cost charge $14.15/ERU/month
A net total increase of $3.1 million in revenues is anticipated from the change in the unit rate of the commodity
charges. The customer, water and wastewater capacity charges are unchanged from FY2022. A typical
residential combined water and wastewater charge will increase $1.54 per month, from $59.17 to $60.71, or
2.6%, based on consumption of 7 CCFs (one CCF is 100 cubic feet or 748 gallons of water).

Utility Connection Fees – There are no proposed fee changes for the water and wastewater capital cost
recovery charge portion of connection fees.
Service Line Charge – The service line charge for a residential five-eighth inch meter will increase by $900,
from $1,900 to $2,800, due to the increase in material cost. The service line charge for larger service lines will
also proportionally increase.
Companion Meter Charge – The installation of a residential companion meter for irrigation usage will
increase by $180, from $620 to $800. This is due to the increase in material and labor costs.
Strong Waste Surcharges –
BOD Surcharge Rate (RBOD) = $0.25 per pound
TSS Surcharge Rate (RTSS) = $0.24 per pound
Tier 1 TN Surcharge Rate (R1TN) = $1.49 per pound Tier 2 TN Surcharge Rate (R2TN) = $1.49 per pound
Tier 1 TP Surcharge Rate (R1TP) = $4.59 per pound Tier 2 TP Surcharge Rate (R2TP) = $4.59 per pound
Septage dumping charge –
$5.00 per 100 gallons
