INTEROFFICE MEMORANDUM
WATER UTILITIES DEPARTMENT-ADMINISTRATION
Date: November 16, 2015
To: Brian McDougal, City Manager
From: Jimmie Johnson, Ph.D., Director of Water Utilitie
RE: Proposed Resolution No. 19224
Nature of the Request:
City Council approval of certain utility bill adjustments in accordance with Section 110-191 of
the Code of Ordinances.
Staff Analysis, Considerations:
Under Section 110-191 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 fifteen(15) 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. 19224 which authorizes the
Utility Billing Division to adjust fifteen(15) 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.
Bud&et Considerations:
I recommend that the City Council adopt Proposed Resolution No. 19224,which authorizes the
Utility Billing Division to adjust fifteen(15) 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.
