INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM
To: Mayor Haggerton
UTILITIES COMMITTEE
From: Bob Giberson, Public Works Director J0
By: Gail Labanara, Public Works Analyst
Date: October 19, 2012
Subject: Water, Sewer, and Surface Water Rates for 2013
ISSUE
Adopt 2013 water, sewer, and surface water rate increases.
WATER
Public Works has analyzed the needs of the water enterprise fund. Cascade Water
Alliance's (CWA) wholesale water rates are projected to increase 6.2% for 2013. A rate
increase on the minimum water meter charge (see Table 1) is being proposed for residential
and multi family customers to maintain the current level of service and lessen the impact of
future increases for purchased water. Increases are also proposed for consumption charges
for multi family and commercial /industrial rates.
Exhibit A is a rate matrix of all of the proposed utility rate increases for residential
customers. Exhibit C -1 shows a comparison of adjoining cities and their water rates. Exhibit
D is the Resolution which updates the Public Works Fee Schedule.
SEWER
King County Ordinance No. 17343 has a 10.22% sewer rate increase for King County
sewage disposal fees in 2013. The sewer rate will increase from $36.10 to $39.79 per
residential customer equivalent per month. The King County sewage treatment capacity
charge (for any new sewer connections) will increase from the current $51.95 to $53.50 per
month for fifteen years for any sewer connection occurring between January 1, 2013 and
December 31, 2013. Exhibit B is King County Ordinance No. 17343.
Tukwila's sewer base rate is scheduled for an increase (see Table 2) in accordance with the
rate model which analyzes the City's operational and capital needs. The City's sewer rate
will increase from $19.26 to $23.10 per residential connection and from $33.74 to $40.48 for
up to 750 cubic feet or fraction thereof for commercial /industrial customers. Exhibit C -1
shows a comparison of adjoining cities and their sewer rates.
SURFACE WATER
Tukwila's surface water base rate is scheduled for an increase in 2013. The City's surface
water rate will increase from $102.00 to $107.00 per residential parcel, per year and will
range from $12.92 to $108.04 per 4,356 square foot for all other parcels. Exhibit C -2 shows
a comparison with other cities and their surface water rates.

As rain rolls into the region at last this
weekend, with it comes a silver lining for
gardeners: lower water bills.
But while some of us open those slim white
envelopes from Seattle Public Utilities with
dread $300 water bills are not
uncommon for devoted gardeners in
Pugetopia Seattle's recent dry spell (only
0.03 inches of rain were recorded between
July 23 and our current storm) actually was
not a financial gusher for the utility.
That's because the dry, hot weather came so
0 4 P late this summer, and continued so deeply
into autumn, the utility already had phased
out its peak season surcharge, in place between May 16 and Sept. 15, as the heat and dryness
continued relentlessly on.
It also was such a wet spring and start to summer that instead of being a big year for water
consumption, 2012 will end up right on target for normal usage.
Besides, SPU's customers are such ardent conservationists, they are using less water than ever,
despite population increases.
It's a trend that has been under way for some time.
SPU customers today use about 120 million gallons of water a day on average, while in 199o,
they used 171 million, said Bruce Flory, senior economist for the utility.
"You have less units to spread your costs over," said Ray Hoffman, director of Seattle Public
Utilities. "That makes your rates higher, and that's a challenge, whether you are selling
petroleum or water or Slinkys."
The declining usage is a result of a combination of a conservation ethic along with changes in
plumbing codes, and the impact of price.

Seattle mulls water rates as usage unchanged despite dry spell I Local News I The Seattle Page 2 of 2
In inflation-adjusted terms, water rates have quintupled since zg0z, mostly because ofthe
substantial decrease in consumption.
The utility also has been iva long season of spending since the z lids
on reservoirs in the city, building two drinking-water treatment plants and a $1oo million
habitat conservation plan for the Cedar River, and paying o$40nmiUion settlement for the
Muuldcsbnnt Indian Tribe.
Paying for all that as usage declines has meant charging ever more per unit of water sold. But
conservation also has meant a significant delay in the need to add new sources of supply,
Hoffman said.
Twenty years ago, Hoffman said, the utility projected aoevvsourcaofdriokiogvvotarvvouldba
needed bv2O08. That projection latwrwoswxtaodedtn2O3O,uodbyoovv,nonwvvoeedfor
additional supply is envisioned until 206O.
Seattle Public Utility customers are blessed with a pure, abundant source of fresh water,
primarily delivered from the mountains of the Cedar River watershed.
But while usage patterns have changed and weather, too the utility hasn't examined its
rate structure in decades. So SPU is beginning a review of how it charges for water, Hoffman
said. The goal is to look at equity across customer classes, as well as providing for revenue
certainty that takes account nf customers' declining use.
One potential change could be to charge more for fixed costs, such as a base service charge, and
pin less nf the utility's revenue to volume nfuse.
After oreview at the staff level, the utility make a recommendation to the mayor, who will
io turn present and propose changes to the City Council.
One thing in for sure: "We are glad to see the roin Hoffman said.
He's far from alone.

trees and trees on public property that aren't getting watered.
"I grew up here and when it doesn't rain, it makes n0000wasy."
This, she said, will be remembered by her omo year of the unthinkable:
"I got tired nf vine-ripened tnozutnas."

A later peak in water use
For Seattle Public Utilities, a late, long spell of dry weather pushed peak usage out later in the
year. The same thing happened in 2011.
