Water, Sewer, and Surface Water Rates for 2009
ISSUE
Adopt 2009 water and sewer rate increases . We will continue to review the annual rate model for
the proposed increases for 2010 and present them to Council in October 2009.
WATER
Public Works has analyzed the needs of the water enterprise fund. Wholesale water rates from
Cascade Water Alliance are projected to increase 11.7% for 2009 and 7.3% for 2010. An overall
15 % rate increase (see Table 1) is being proposed to maintain the current level of service and
lessen the impact of future cost increases for purchased water. A portion of this increase will
provide the funds necessary for continuing operational and capital needs. Exhibit A is an
overview of all of the Proposed Utility Rate Increases for residential customers. Exhibit E is the
Resolution that updates the Public Works Fee Schedule.
SEWER
For sewer rates, King County Ordinance No. 16135 shows a 14.13% increase of the King
County sewage disposal fees for 2009 from $27.95 to $31.90 per residential customer equivalent
per month. The King County sewage treatment capacity charge (for any new sewer connections)
will increase from the current $46.25 to $47.64 per month for fifteen years for any sewer
connection occurring between January 1, 2009 and December 31,2009. Exhibit B is King
County Ordinance No. 16135. Exhibit C is the proposed City of Tukwila Ordinance that
incorporates the 2009 King County sewer rate increase.
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 $10.12 to $11.64 per residential connection and from $17.71 to $20.37 for up to
750 cubic feet or fraction thereof for commercial/industrial customers. Exhibit D-l shows a
comparison of adjoining cities and their water and sewer rates. Exhibit E is the Resolution that
updates the Public Works Fee Schedule.
SURFACE WATER
Tukwila's surface water base rate is scheduled for an increase in 2010. The City's surface water
rate will stay at $71.00 per residential parcel, per year and will range from $8.85 to $73.96 per
4,356 sq. ft. Exhibits D-2 and D-3 are comparisons with other cities and their surface water
rates.
