The additienatrevenue would cover the $98,000.00 increase andthe 1975-76 operating deficit of $44,000.00. Summa~ Approximately forty-five percent of the City's sewage. treatment is provided by Valley Community Services District through a contract, The amount that the Cityis requiredto pay for that serviceis determinedby the Service Fee rate schedule of V;C.S.D~,whic~will' be increased July 1, 1975. This increased service.fee charged'by V.C.S.D. will ~equire the City to pay an additional$98,000.00.in 1975-76 for sewer service. There is no surplus projected in the sewer and drainage fund for 1975-76 to cover the $98,000.00 expenditure increase, therefore it is necessary to consider a sewer service fee increase. The 1975-76 budget has an operating deficit of nearly $44,000.00, which has been offset by a surplus projected for this year. There- fore, a sewer rate study will haveto be conducted and adjustments made prior to fiscal year 1976-77. Two alternative interim rate structures are proposed for the City Council's consideration: Alternative No. 1 - This alternative will provide the revenue to cover the additional $98,000 expense due tothe V.C.S.D. increase, plus about $22,000 Of the $44,000 1975-76 deficit. It.would re- quire an increase of $1.00 per month for each residential unit with proportionate increases for other users. -4-
