Sewer Rates
§ 86-111
The following sewer or wastewater charges shall be made to customers on the city's sewer system:
(1)
Separately metered residential: All residential customers with a single living unit supplied with water from one meter shall be charged the following sewer or wastewater charges for each meter service:
(A)
All residential customers with a single living unit who are supplied with sewer service shall be charged a monthly sewer base charge of $33.35.
(B)
In addition to the monthly sewer or wastewater base charge, residential customers with a single living unit who are supplied with sewer service shall be charged a monthly excess sewer or wastewater volume charge of $0.00215 for each gallon of total water used (and wastewater produced) in excess of 2,000 gallons (the amount included in the sewer or wastewater base charge).
(C)
For purposes of this calculation, the monthly water usage (and wastewater produced) shall be determined using the customer's average monthly water usage (and wastewater produced) during the preceding winter quarter months of December, January, and February. When no preceding winter average data are available from prior customer records, an estimated average monthly winter average volume of 10,000 gallons shall be used to calculate the monthly excess sewer or wastewater charge per residential unit.
(2)
When two or more residential living units are supplied with water from one meter, the sewer or wastewater service shall be classified as multifamily residential sewer or wastewater service. Multifamily residential sewer or wastewater service customers shall be charged the following sewer or wastewater charges for each meter service:
(A)
A monthly sewer or wastewater base charge of $33.35 (the monthly sewer or wastewater base charge for the standard 3/4-inch water meter equivalent for a separately metered residential unit), multiplied by an occupancy factor of 80%, multiplied by the total number of multifamily residential units supplied by the meter.
(B)
In addition to the monthly base sewer or wastewater charge, multifamily residential customers who are supplied with sewer service shall be charged a monthly sewer or wastewater excess volume usage charge. Monthly sewer or wastewater excess volume charges will be assessed based on the number of adjusted residential units served by the meter. The number of "adjusted multifamily residential units" shall be the actual number of multifamily residential units served by the meter, multiplied by an occupancy factor of 80%, rounded up to the nearest whole number.
(C)
Each adjusted multifamily residential unit shall be assessed a sewer or wastewater excess volume charge each month calculated as follows:
(i)
The monthly winter average water volume or estimated sewer volume, used shall be divided by the number of adjusted multifamily residential units to determine the monthly volume usage per adjusted multifamily residential unit;
(ii)
The monthly winter average water volume per adjusted multifamily residential unit shall then be reduced by 2,000 gallons (the amount of usage included in the base charge) to determine the excess sewer or wastewater usage per multifamily residential unit;
(iii)
The total excess sewer or wastewater usage shall then be assessed at a rate of $0.00215 for each gallon of total winter average water used (and wastewater produced) in excess of the first 2,000 gallons of volume usage included in the base charge;
(iv)
The excess sewer or wastewater usage charge per unit shall then be multiplied by the adjusted multifamily residential units supplied water by the meter to obtain a total volume charge for winter average water usage for the meter.
(D)
For purposes of this calculation, the monthly winter average sewer or wastewater usage shall be determined using the customer's average monthly water usage (and wastewater produced) during the preceding winter quarter months of December, January and February. When no preceding winter average data are available from prior customer records, an estimated average monthly winter average volume of 10,000 gallons shall be used to calculate the monthly excess sewer or wastewater charge per multifamily residential unit.
(3)
The following sewer or wastewater charges shall be made to nonresidential customers on the city's sewer system:
(A)
The monthly minimum sewer or wastewater base charge shall be $38.50 for the first 2,000 gallons of actual water used (and wastewater produced) during the monthly billing period.
(B)
In addition to the monthly base charge, nonresidential customers who are supplied with sewer service shall be charged a monthly excess sewer or wastewater volume usage charge of $0.00335 for each gallon of total water used (and wastewater produced) over the first 2,000 gallons of winter average water volume usage included in the base charge.

When two or more residential living units are supplied with water from one meter, the water service shall be classified as a multifamily residential service. A multifamily residential service customer shall be charged the following water service charges for each meter service:
(A)
A monthly water base charge of $24.45 (the monthly water base charge for the standard 3/4-inch water meter equivalent for a separately metered residential unit), multiplied by an occupancy factor of 80%, multiplied by the total number of multifamily residential units supplied by the meter.
(B)
In addition to the monthly base charge, multifamily residential customers who are supplied with water service shall be charged a monthly excess water volume usage charge. Monthly excess water volume charges will be assessed based on the number of "adjusted multifamily residential units" served by the meter. The number of adjusted multifamily residential units shall be the actual number of multifamily residential units served by the meter multiplied by an occupancy factor of 80%, rounded up to the nearest whole number. Each adjusted multifamily residential unit shall be assessed an excess water volume charge each month, which charge shall be calculated as follows:
(i)
The total monthly water volume as indicated on the meter shall be divided by the number of adjusted multifamily residential units to determine the monthly water volume consumed per adjusted multifamily residential unit;
(ii)
The monthly water volume consumed per adjusted multifamily residential unit shall be reduced by 2,000 gallons (the amount of usage included in the base charge) to determine the excess water volume usage;
(iii)
Excess water volume usage per adjusted multifamily residential unit shall be assessed according to the following table:
