HomeMy WebLinkAboutContract No. 2015-2668August 25, 2015 To: City Finance & Other Interested Officials Re: 2016 Municipal Wastewater Charges City of Columbia Heights Finance Cep rr It WRachment: Metropolitan Disposal System Flows and Charges The Metropolitan Council adopted a Metropolitan Wastewater Charge for 2016 of $201.0 million. This is an increase of 5.4% from the 2015 charge of $190.7 million. As you may know, metropolitan wastewater facilities nationwide are under a lot of cost pressure due to aging infrastructure, increasing regulation and decreasing federal and state financial support. The National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) projects a national average increase of 5.8% for 2016 and predicts increases over 5% for the next several years. MCES also faces these challenges, and future MCES rate increases in the near term are likely to be close to the national average. Nevertheless, our combined national competiveness remains very good: At the retail level, the average single - family residence in the Twin Cities metropolitan area paid $255 in 2014 compared to an average of $404 for 25 peer wastewater service providers that treat more than 100 million gallons per day. MCES continues to utilize the "firm flow" allocation method, which uses the 12 -month flow values between July 1, 2014 and June 30, 2015 (as an estimate of 2016 service) to allocate the $201.0 million of total metropolitan charges. Your municipality's percentage of the overall system flow during that period is the percentage of the Metropolitan Wastewater Charge that will be charged to your community in 2016. We have included the calculation on the attached table and will bill your municipality in equal monthly amounts in 2016. Note that overall system flow is down; therefore, municipalities that benefit from others who pay for inflow and infiltration (1 /1) will realize less of a benefit. MCES community rate survey results and additional information regarding our rates and billings are available at: http://metrocouncil. orq/Wastewater- Water /Fundinq- Finance. aspx http: / /Metrocouncil. otiglWastewater -Water /Fundinq- Finance /Finance - Pubs /2094- Survey -of- Municipal- Residential- Wastewater -Ra. aspx Note that the numbers on the attached table DO NOT include any 1/1 Surcharges. Those communities that have a preliminary 2016 1/1 obligation have received a separate letter from Bryce Pickart. As always, MCES welcomes your comments, questions and suggestions on our services. Feel free to contact me at (651) 602 -1162 or e-mail me at ned.smith(c)-metc. state. mn.us. For the NACWA data, please contact Dan Schueller at (651) 602- 1624 or dan .schueller(aD-metc. state. mn.us. Please contact Kyle Colvin with questions about your community's wastewater flows at (651) 602 -1151 or kyle.colvinametc.state.mn.us.
