Malone, Mayor • • REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM AGENDA DATE REQUESTED March 25, 1991 REQUESTED BY Jeff Litchfield DEPARTMENT Director of Finance REPORT RESOLUTION XX ORDINANCE EXHIBITS: Ordinance Report SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATION At the Council meeting on March 11, 1991, Council was presented with an ordinance that would change the method of calculating sewer charges for residential customers. Staff believes that the diversity of our customer base and our proximity to the coast makes the current system undesirable. Staff has estimated that continuation with the current system will have the affect of rasing sewer rates by 5.26 percent. Staff had proposed a method whereby sewer rates would be determined based on 85$ of each months water consumption and that the sewer bill have an established cap for any individual month. The ordinance was tabled until further information could be gathered that isolated our customers that are over 65 years of age (Senior Citizens). I have attached a report and Exhibit that shows the impact on a sample of our Senior Citizens. The results of the sample indicate that Senior Citizens will benefit by the change to the proposed method. Councilman Sutherland had me explore the possibility of providing a monthly cap lower than the $40.00 that I originally proposed. Upon further review, I believe that the City can maintain financial integrity in the Utility Fund with a monthly cap of $37.50. The attached ordinance is for the change in the method of calculating the sewer charge for residential customers only; it does not affect the calculation of multiple units or commercial accounts nor does it have a major impact, either positive or negative, on .the financial condition of the Utility Fund. ACTION REQUIRED BY COUNCIL: Approve Ordinance changing the method of calculating the residential sewage charge to be based on 85$ of the water consumption and at no time to exceed $37.50 in any given month. AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS: GENERAL FUND UTILITY FUND OTHER ACCOUNT NUMBER: N/A FUNDS AVAILABLE: YES NO APPROVED FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA Q~~ T. a ~ ~1-~~ ROBERT T HERRERA DATE CITY MANAGER CITY OF LA PORTE INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM T0: Robert T. Herrera, City Manager FROM: Jeff Litchfield, Director of Fina Date: March 18, 1991 SUBJECT: Request by Councilman Skelton At the March 11, 1991 City Council Meeting, I presented Council with an Ordinance that would change our method of calculating sewer for residential customers. As explained to you earlier, I believe the current method will increase costs to our current customer base because of the upwards shift in the "winter average". At the March 11, 1991 meeting, Councilman Skelton stated that he wanted me to provide him with examples of the impact on the citizens that are over 65 years of age. The examples that I had prepared related to water customers as a whole and did not specifically relate to one segment of users. I did not have any examples prepared for over 65 customers. Councilman Skelton tabled the ordinance until I could provide examples of the impact on senior citizens. Councilman Skelton's request is not an easy one to respond to. I have no way of knowing the age of our water customers from our utility system. Because of this, I had to go outside of the utility system to define my population. The best thing I could think of was the tax system. I extracted all records from the tax system that had the over 65 exemption. I found that there were 729 accounts that had the exemption. From this population, I extracted a sample of 73 or 10$ of the population. The sample was determined by using Lotus software to pick 73 random numbers between one and 729. For the 73 items that were selected, I calculated the following numbers: 1. What they paid last year, (referred to as old rate), 2. What they will be paying, once we update the bills, if we remain under the current system, (referred to as the new rate), and 3. What they would have paid last year if the proposed system had been in place, (referred to as the proposed rate). • • Attached as Exhibit 1 is a listing of the sample items as well as the three numbers mentioned above. The following information was extracted from the sample calculations, (unless otherwise indicated, all numbers are annual). The average sewer bill that was paid last year $ 201.45 The average sewer bill if we continue with the current method into the new year $ 212.82 The percentage increase if we continue with the current method 5.64$ The average sewer bill if we change to the proposed method $ 210.35 The percentage increase if we change to the proposed method 4.42$ As you can see, the sample of 108 of the over 65 accounts will incur an increase under either method. While the above numbers represent averages, I think it is important to show you the actual variances for the items at the extreme ends of the differences. The sample item which will have the largest reduction if we stay with the current plan is sample item number 21. They will have a drop of $96.36 for the year. If we go with the proposed plan, their drop will only be $67.49. The sample item which will have the largest gain if we stay with the current plan is sample item number eight. They will have an increase of $216.36 for the year. If we go with the proposed plan, their increase will only be $108.41. The sample item which will have the largest reduction if we go with the proposed plan is sample item 62. They will have a decrease of $72.64. If we stay with the current plan, their decrease will only be $58.08. The sample item which will have the largest gain if we stay with the current plan is sample item number eight. This account was also the account that had the largest gain under the current plan and is discussed above. If you look at the data in detail, you can see that there is no systematic trend in the increases or decreases. My recommendation to change the method of calculating sewer charges remains the same after reviewing the over 65 information. Its' impact on the over 65 sample of 73 accounts was to provide a 1.228 decrease as shown in the calculations. To switch gears, I would like to provide you with information pertaining to the tax system. While I had all of the information extracted for the tax accounts that had over 65 exemptions, I ran a few numbers on the data. As background information, the City of La Porte offers a homestead exemption of 20$ of the appraised value to all residents and an over 65 exemption of up to $60,000 of appraised value for our senior citizens. The total appraised value of the 729 accounts with over 65 exemptions is $30,473,130. If these accounts did not have the exemption, they would generate tax revenue to the City of $216,359.12. A total of 92.2$ of these accounts pay no taxes at all to the City of La Porte and the remaining 7.8$ pay a total of $11,873.63. This means that we give the over 65 accounts a total exemption of $204,485.49 or $280.50 each. • • EXHIBIT 1 COMPARISON OF SEWER CHARGES FOR OVER 65 CUSTOMERS < - -DIFFERENCES - - > SECELTION OLD NEW PROPOSED OLD VS OLD VS ORDER RATE RATE RATE NEW RATE PROPOSED 1 143.40 171.36 162.22 27.96 18.82 2 217.80 327.60 288.50 109.80 70.70 3 223.80 249.96 223.00 26.16 (0.80) 4 220.80 217.80 218.79 (3.00) (2.01) 5 217.80 293.64 251.62 75.84 33.82 6 339.84 303.48 347.16 (36.36) 7.32 7 143.40 174.00 193.08 30.60 49.68 8 179.16 395.52 287.57 216.36 108.41 9 232.68 163.32 210.36 (69.36) (22.32) 10 232.68 167.76 180.64 (64.92) (52.04) 11 220.80 308.88 225.85 88.08 5.05 12 143.40 175.80 192.85 32.40 49.45 13 143.40 224.04 215.42 80.64 72.02 14 188.04 216.96 206.34 28.92 18.30 15 232.68 341.04 297.42 108.36 64.74 16 164.28 201.72 193.82 37.44 29.54 17 152.28 164.28 176.15 12.00 23.87 18 143.40 143.40 164.33 0.00 20.93 19 143.40 143.40 152.24 0.00 8.84 20 158.28 190.08 204.38 31.80 46.10 21 244.56 148.20 177.07 (96.36) (67.49) 22 205.92 181.20 200.24 (24.72) (5.68) 23 196.92 208.92 197.28 12.00 0.36 24 143.40 143.40 148.66 0.00 5.26 25 235.68 183.00 202.55 (52.68) (33.13) 26 152.28 143.40 153.91 (8.88) 1.63 27 366.60 333.84 316.12 (32.76) (50.48) 28 149.40 154.44 184.99 5.04 35.59 29 143.40 143.40 147.61 0.00 4.21 30 205.92 189.24 202.14 (16.68) (3.78) 31 143.40 143.40 143.50 0.00 0.10 32 390.36 372.24 377.41 (18.12) (12.95) 33 164.28 190.08 183.68 25.80 19.40 34 155.28 143.40 151.48 (11.88) (3.80) 35 173.16 155.28 170.23 (17.88) (2.93) 36 155.28 143.40 146.55 (11.88) (8.73) 37 211.80 262.44 240.93 50.64 29.13 38 196.92 229.44 249.58 32.52 52.66 39 241.56 268.68 248.09 27.12 6.53 40 217.80 274.92 221.31 57.12 3.51 i • EXHIBIT 1 COMPARISON OF SEWER CHARGES FOR OVER 65 CUSTOMERS < - -DIFFERENCES - - > SECELTION OLD NEW PROPOSED OLD VS OLD VS ORDER RATE RATE RATE NEW RATE PROPOSED 41 143.40 143.40 143.40 0.00 0.00 42 152.28 191.04 176.74 38.76 24.46 43 143.40 143.40 154.66 0.00 11.26 44 339.84 322.20 303.81 (17.64) (36.03) 45 250.56 231.24 236.07 (19.32) (14.49) 46 235.68 174.96 179.68 (60.72) (56.00) 47 199.92 217.80 200.67 17.88 0.75 48 143.40 143.40 167.60 0.00 24.20 49 167.16 143.40 159.48 (23.76) (7.68) 50 244.56 293.64 287.88 49.08 43.32 51 208.92 161.52 202.47 (47.40) (6.45) 52 179.16 199.08 175.05 19.92 (4.11) 53 214.80 300.84 287.83 86.04 73.03 54 280.32 252.60 220.48 (27.72) (59.84) 55 182.04 193.68 223.06 11.64 41.02 56 176.16 199.92 195.81 23.76 19.65 57 143.40 143.40 143.40 0.00 0.00 58 185.04 232.92 215.95 47.88 30.91 59 143.40 174.00 174.68 30.60 31.28 60 191.04 150.84 158.97 (40.20) (32.07) 61 304.08 341.04 327.70 36.96 23.62 62 351.72 293.64 279.08 (58.08) (72.64) 63 143.40 143.40 159.16 0.00 15.76 64 259.44 284.76 286.40 25.32 26.96 65 342.84 386.52 368.44 43.68 25.60 66 143.40 153.48 160.12 10.08 16.72 67 143.40 182.04 202.77 38.64 59.37 68 286.20 284.76 234.81 (1.44) (51.39) 69 143.40 170.52 160.42 27.12 17.02 70 232.68 222.24 186.36 (10.44) (46.32) 71 143.40 165.12 186.11 21.72 42.71 72 143.40 145.44 185.51 2.04 42.11 73 208.92 163.32 156.11 (45.60) (52.81) TOTALS 14,706.00 15,535.92 15,355.75 829.92 649.75 AVERAGES 201.45 212.82 210.35 11.37 8.90 ~~ r ~, ~: ,i ORb .~L~` i~ ~ ~, ~„•. 1i AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 26 DISPOSAL," OF THE CODE OF ORDINA NEW RATE AND FEE STRUCTURE; FIND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE HERE BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY C Section 1.

Backup correspondence consists of a letter of offer from the Manager of the Association, a General Warranty Deed and a site map. This property, if accepted, will compliment the existing park and will allow the City to offer additional recreational activities. During a recent workshop, staff recommended pursuing the donation of this property and asked that the electrical wiring of the pool facility be brought up to City Code. Fairmont Park Homes Association has asked that the donation exclude the electrical upgrade. Council needs to decide this matter before adopting Ordinance No. 1750. A decision on this matter needs to be made soon. An affirmative vote will require the City to expend time and appropriate additional funds to bring this facility up to City standards and make ready for our swimming season. Action Required by Council: Adopt Ordinance No. 1750 and appropriate $50,000 from the General Fund Contingency Account for unbudgeted start-up cost identified by staff for the Fairmont Park Swimming Pool.

Herrerra, City Manager City of La Porte P.O. Box 1115 La Porte, Texas Ct i Y MANAGERS OFFICE Relative to the previous proposal by the Fairmont Park Homes Association Board of Directors to give its swimming pool to the City of La Porte, the Homes Association held a special meeting of the membership on Monday, March 11, 1991, for the purpose of voting on the proposal. We are happy to report that the vote was 4 to 1 in favor of giving the pool and the 1.2 acres of land to the City of La Porte for its operation. The membership, however, did not feel that the Homes Association should pay for any upgrading of the facilities since they will become city-owned property. We are ready at any time to meet with the City of La Porte in order to finalize this transaction. Very truly yours, FAIRMONT PARK HOMES ASSOCIATION -'~ . Jimmie R.

The City currently has outstanding three issues of General Obligation Bonds and one series of Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds with interest rates ranging from 8$ to 9.7$. These Bond issues are all callable and have call dates ranging from August of this year until March of 1995. The proposed procedure would be for the City to sell Refunding Bonds and take the proceeds therefrom and invest in U.S. Government Securities to be placed in an escrow account. The U.S. Government Securities would provide payments to exactly coincide with payments on the above-mentioned series of General Obligation and Revenue Bonds, the "Refunded Bonds", until their call dates, and then suf- ficient funds from the government securities would mature to call in and pay off the high-rate bonds. This procedure of offsetting all the payments due on the Refunded Bonds with U.S. Government Securities is called a Defeasement. The Refunded Bonds would be defeased and the City would legally no longer be responsible for any payments due thereon. _T'D.1d¢'(X,id~ed iro 1919 • . R. Herrera -2- 3/20/91 The City would then be left with the Refunding Bonds to be paid from taxes and water and sewer revenues, respectively, which should sell in today's market at the 6.5$ to 7~ range. Substantial savings in annual principal and interest payments would therefore result. We would like to discuss this further with you and the Council at your meeting on March 25 and we look forward to seeing you then. If in the meantime you have any questions or we can furnish anything further regarding this proposal, please let us know. Sincerely, ~ ~ ~~ R.

Legislation has been filed with would limit the Commission's ability to consider such settlements unless all the parties to a rate ease approve. This would give the power of veto to any individual party in the case, a power that would usurp the rights of the cities.

Box 1115 La Porte, Texas 77571 Dear Mr. Herrera: Re: City of La Porte EPA Project C-481176-03 Final Grant Audit Review t A final audit review of the above-referenced EPA project has been completed by this office in accordance with 40 CFR 35.2300(a). The purpose of our review was to evaluate the statutory and regulatory eligibility of the City's claimed costs as set forth in your final EPA Outlay Report dated May 30, 1989. In addition to reviewing the project files. maintained by this agency, we also examined on October 18, 1988 and August 24 and 25, 1989, the financial records maintained by the City. This review did not include the internal accounting and administrative controls used by the City in the administration of the EPA funded project. In this regard, we have relied on the reviews and assurances provided by the City's independent auditors for fiscal years 1987, 1988 and 1989. We have conducted a review of the appropriate single audit report for fiscal year 1988 and have determined that for the purposes of our review, this report meets the reporting requirements of the SAA. However, the City remains subject to correcting any program related findings of single audit reports to be submitted for fiscal years 1987 and 1989. I'.U. l;„~ 1 ~'.~l (:,~(~itul titati~m • l,Uli \.

March 8, 1991 Page 2 Herrera, City Manager • Our records indicate that cash disbursements were made to the City by EPA as follows: Fiscal Year 1981 - $2,784,980 1982 - $817,925 1983 - $119,599 1984 - -0- 1985 - $15,096 1986 - -0- 1987 - -0- 1988 - -0- 1989 - -0- 1990 - -0- 1991 - $134,086 (final payment) As a result of our review, several adjustments were made to your final-payment request, as reflected in the enclosed Final Statement of Claimed and Accepted Project Costs. The ending eligible construction cost for the Naylor and PM Construction contracts was reconciled with the completion of work originally authorized in the Tinker/Lovelace contract by TWDB engineering staff. The bid bond recovery from CAT Contracting was offset by the costs associated with obtaining the recovery. The net effect of these adjustments decreased your total eligible claimed expenses by $154,421. Other than these matters, nothing came to our attention that would, in our opinion, have a material effect on the eligibility of the City's claimed costs. We have therefore processed the City's final EPA payment in the amount of $134,086. We appreciate the courtesy and cooperation of the City's staff during our review. If we can be of further assistance in this regard, please contact me at (512) 463-8514. Sincerely, Richard A.
