Staff Analysis, Considerations: Under Section 270-191 of the Code of Ordinances, the Utility Billing Division is authorized to make sewer adjustments up to $250 on accounts that have had excessive water usage due to documented leaks, or unexplained spikes in consumption. "Exhibit A" attached to the resolution lists twenty-seven (27) accounts that I am recommending for adjustment. These accounts have had serious problems with leaks for several months and have already received the maximum sewer and water adjustments of$250. These customers have worked diligently with us to get the account resolved, have had all leaks repaired, and have had decreased consumption. Recommendation: I recommend that the City Council adopt Proposed Resolution No. 19333 which authorizes the Utility Billing Division to adjust twenty-seven(27) accounts in accordance with the City's Water and Sewer adjustment policies. These accounts have adjustments in excess of the $250 adjustment for sewer and $250 adjustment for water allowed under the current City Ordinance. Bucket Considerations: I recommend that the City Council adopt Proposed Resolution No. 19333, which authorizes the Utility Billing Division to adjust twenty-seven (27) accounts in accordance with the City's water and sewer adjustment policy. These accounts have adjustments in excess of the $250 adjustment allowed under the current City Ordinance. vioP. R. No. 19333 3/14/16 ap RESOLUTION NO.
