City Council approval requires a simple majority vote. BACKGROUND The city attorney's office recommends that the fees be adopted by ordinance. These rates will be effective January 1, 2012. Ehlers & Associates have prepared a utility rate analysis to review rates for 2012 and beyond. The summary of the study is attached. DISCUSSION 3 Recreation Center Surface Water Management Plan (Section 4 -30 (c) 3.) 2310 Coulter Boulevard Phone: 952.227.1400 The City's Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) was adopted in February 1994. Fax: 952.2271404 The SWMP recommended the City establish surface water connection fees as a Planning & means of financing city -wide improvements recommended in the SWMP. Natural Resources Connection fees are charged to subdivisions prior to final plat approval to recoup the Phone: 952.227.1130 costs of the installation and maintenance of public storm water infrastructure. Fax: 952.227.1110 The connection charges were derived from estimating the costs of all the pipes and Public Works 7901 Park Place ponds proposed in the SWMP. The total cost has been apportioned so developments Phone: 952.227.1300 are charged according to the number of acres developed and the land use. The fee per Fax: 952.227.1310 acre varies by land use as a result of the amount of impervious surface allowed within that land use category Senior Center Phone: 952.227.1125 At that time, the rates were calculated using market values of land in the City of Fax: 952.227.1110 Chanhassen and the construction cost index. In the SWMP, it was noted that, "the Web Site rates should be increased annually in line with the construction price index," but, until www.ci.chanhassen.mn.us 2002, the fees had not been updated since adoption. For 2009, the fees were not changed. In 2010, Ehlers & Associates, the City's financial advisors, recommended a Chanhassen is a Community for Life - Providing for Today and Planning for Tomorrow Todd Gerhardt December 12, 2011 Chapter 4, 2012 Fees Page 12 water quality fee increase of 8 percent and a water quantity fee increase of 7 percent. For 2011, the fees were not changed. For 2012, the Ehlers & Associates study recommends a five percent increase to the water quality and quantity fees.

For 2012, the Ehlers & Associates study recommends a six percent increase to the water hook -up and connection fees and a four percent increase to the sewer hook -up and connection fees. Hook -up fees are also known as area trunk fees. A lateral connection charge replaces a missed assessment. When the City installs a pipe next to a property, some owners choose not to connect. In some instances, the City may not have assessed the property owner for their portion of the pipe. When those properties eventually connect, the lateral connection charge approximately covers the cost of the omitted assessment. These charges are only levied in rare instances. Trunk hook -up charges, on the other hand, are for core utility infrastructure such as wells, lift stations, and trunk main oversizing. Every new lot in the City that hooks up to the utility system pays a trunk hook -up charge. Hook -up fees paid at the time of final residential subdivision approval increase from $608.00 to $632.00 /unit (sewer) and $1,618.00 to $1,715.00 /unit (water). The remainders of the sewer and water hook -up fees are collected with the building permit at the rate in effect at that time. The Todd Gerhardt December 12, 2011 Chapter 4, 2012 Fees Page 13 total sanitary hook -up fee is increasing from $2,026 to $2,107 and the total water hook -up fee is increasing from $5,393 to $5,717. Parcels within the Lake Ann Sewer District will also be subject to the Lake Ann Trunk sewer fees in addition to the sewer trunk hook -up fees. The Lake Ann Interceptor hook -up fee is increasing from $1,734 to $1,803 and the sub -trunk fee is increasing from $1,818 to $1,891. Commercial, industrial and institutional developments pay the total hook -up fee at the time of building permit. Trunk hook -up fees are based on the number of sanitary access charge (SAC) units assigned by Metropolitan Council for office or industrial /commercial buildings. Lateral connection charges are charges for utility infrastructure which has been constructed by the City but was not assessed to or paid for a property. Sewer lateral connection charges increase from $6,783.00 to $7,054.00 and water lateral connection charges increase from $6,657.00 to $7,056.00 Sewer Access Charge The Metropolitan Council amends their Sewer Access Charge (SAC) fee annually. For 2012, the SAC fee has been raised from $2,230.00 to $2,365.00. Rather than having to amend our ordinance annually to incorporate the Metropolitan Council's revised fee, the City in 2011 amended the language to reference that the fee is established by the Metropolitan Council. The total SAC fee for 2012 is $2,440.00 per unit, which includes a $75.00 City surcharge. Utility Rates (Section 4 -45) In 2007, the city experienced significant water usage events that lead the city to add tiers to our water rates and adopt the tiered rate structure in 2008. In 2011, the City added a fifth tier for household and irrigation use that is more than 99,000 gallons per quarter. For 2012, the Ehlers & Associates study recommends a two percent increase to the water utility rates for Tiers 1 - 4 and the bulk rate and a three percent increase for Tier 5. Listed below is the 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and proposed 2012 water consumption rate structure: 2008 2009 2010 2011 Proposed 2012 Water Hook -up $4,799 $5,087 $5,393 $5,393 $5,717 Sewer Hook -up $1,769 $1,893 $2,026 $2,026 $2,107 Water Connection $5,924 $6,280 $6,657 $6,657 $7,056 Sewer Connection $5,924 $6,339 $6,783 $6,783 $7,054 Lake Ann Interceptor $1,514 $1,620 $1,734 $1,734 $1,803 Sub -trunk $1,587 $1,699 $1,818 $1,818 $1,891 Sewer Access Charge The Metropolitan Council amends their Sewer Access Charge (SAC) fee annually. For 2012, the SAC fee has been raised from $2,230.00 to $2,365.00. Rather than having to amend our ordinance annually to incorporate the Metropolitan Council's revised fee, the City in 2011 amended the language to reference that the fee is established by the Metropolitan Council. The total SAC fee for 2012 is $2,440.00 per unit, which includes a $75.00 City surcharge.

In the 2010 report, we recommended that the City add a fifth water usage tier. By doing so, the City was able to hold water usage rates at a 0% increase. Last year's report recommended incremental rate increases for 2012 and beyond. This report reiterates those findings. We have completed the review and determined that there are small rate increases proposed for connection charges, platting fees, and area charges for water, sanitary sewer, and storm water for 2012. These rate increases are consistent with the rate increases proposed for 2012 in prior year's report.

We have split these functions into the Operating portion of the fund and the Trunk portion of the fund. The City's water infrastructure is the cost driver in the water fund as a whole. The following chart shows the annual cost breakdown in 2012 and 2019 for operating and capital costs for the water system. The capital costs and related debt service are expected to increase steadily over the next five years. This is a trend that has been illustrated in past studies. Capital and debt increase to over 1/3 of total utility costs, which is due to the debt service related to the water treatment plant in 2018. 2012 Water Utility Costs Capital and_ Debt 32% 2019 Water Utility Costs Capital and_ Debt 37% iation % The City is building a water system to serve its residents and businesses on the hottest, driest days of summer that produce peak demand. The City has taken steps to reduce this peak demand, such as every - other day watering, but summer water consumption continues to be 2.5 times as high as winter water demand, largely due to irrigation. To meet the increased demand for water, the City will need to invest in additional infrastructure, in particular, the additional water treatment plant scheduled for 2019. Usage Rates and Targeted Cash Reserves The proposed rates impose the lowest increases possible that will still leave the City's water system in good financial health. As was stated above, growth and the pressure of water usage during peak demand times is driving operating and capital costs. In order to meet these needs, usage rates and connection fees will need to be increased. Sufficient cash balances need to be maintained in order to assure smooth operation of the entire water system. The City has set the cash reserve target to be six months' worth of operating costs plus 15% of accumulated depreciation. The following graph shows the projected cash balances as measured against cash reserves. 2 Onerating Water Fund Operating Ending Cash Balance 10,000,000 9,000,000 8,000,000 ■ Total Target Reserves (6 7,000,000 mos. operating expense plus 15% depreciation) 6,000,000 5,000,000 4,000,000 3,000,000 ■Ending Cash Balance 2,000,000 1,000,000 0 The cash balance in the operating portion of the fund has dropped below the target reserve amount because growth has slowed in the City of Chanhassen. Growth is projected to slowly increase to 170 residential units per year in 2015 and beyond. Actual water usage decreased by 10% between 2009 and 2010. Weather patterns are the biggest determinant of usage. Our projections are based on lower water use that was experienced during 2010. We have projected a small 2 % -5% increase in water usage beginning in 2013. If water usage increases faster than this estimate, ending cash balance may be closer to its target balance. The water fund will maintain adequate cash to pay for expansion of the water system and provide for operating needs. Currently, the City's water usage tiers are as follows: Tier 1: 0 -6,000 gallons Tier 2: 6,001 to 24,000 gallons Tier 3: 24,001 to 48,000 gallons Tier 4: 48,001 to 99,000 gallons Tier 5: Over 99,000 gallons (does not apply to commercial customers) Water rate increases are necessary to meet higher projected future operating, capital and debt costs. The proposed water rate changes are shown in the following chart. 3 % Rate Increase 0.00% 2.00% 2.00% 3.00% 3.00% Tier 1 $1.00 $1.02 $1.04 $1.07 $1.10 0 -6,000 gallons % Rate Increase 0.00% 2.00% 2.00% 3.00% 3.00% Tier 2 $2.00 $2.04 $2.08 $2.14 $2.21 6,001- 24,000 gallons % Rate Increase 0.00% 2.00% 2.00% 3.00% 3.00% Tier 3 $2.49 $2.54 $2.59 $2.67 $2.75 24,001- 48,000 gallons % Rate Increase 2.00% 2.00% 3.00% 3.00% Tier 4 $2.89 $2.95 $3.01 $3.10 $3.19 48,001- 99,000 gallons % Rate Increase 3.00% 3.00% 3.00% 3.00% Tier 5 $3.61 $3.72 $3.83 $3.94 $4.06 Over 99,000 gallons We have projected the rate increases that will be necessary in 2012 and in future years. We are anticipating the need to increase usage rates on Tiers 1 -4 by 2% in 2012 and 2013 and 3% per year thereafter. Rates for Tier 5 are projected to increase 3% annually beginning in 2012. These rate increases are consistent with the findings from the prior year's report. Depending on actual water usage patterns over the next year, the city may need to consider a rate increase higher than 2% in 2013 in order to maintain the financial health of the water utility. In addition to the usage charges above, the City of Chanhassen collects a fixed quarterly charge of $5.01. As with usage rates, it will be necessary for the fixed fee to increase. We are recommending this fixed charge increase by 12c to $5.13 in 2012. Beginning in 2012, the fixed charge would increase at the same percentage as Tier 1 -4: 2% per year in 2012 and 2013, and 3% per year thereafter. Impact on Customers: The following charts provide sample bills for water users under the proposed rates. 4 Residential: Low water user $21.01 $21.45 $21.88 $22.54 $23.27 11,000 gallons /qtr Average water user $51.99 $53.05 $54.11 $55.73 $57.46 26,000 gallons /qtr High water user $817.32 $839.32 $861.90 $887.76 $914.45 255,000 gallons /qtr Commercial: Low water user $823.49 $839.98 $856.78 $882.48 $909.01 296,000 gallons /qtr Average water user $3,979.37 $4,058.98 $4,140.16 $4,264.36 $4,392.35 1,388,000 gallons /qtr High water user $22,625.65 $23,078.18 $23,539.75 $24,245.94 $24,973.37 7,840,000 gallons /qtr Water Capital Improvements The capital improvement plans for the water operating and trunk funds are attached in Exhibit B, which begins on page 14 of this report. The timing of the following planned capital improvements includes: • Elevated storage tank in 2016. • Water treatment plant in 2018. • Painting of the Arboretum water tower, which was moved back one year, to 2016. • Painting the Lake Lucy Water Storage Stand and Pipes and Well 915 in 2013. Water Connection Fees We are recommending that water connection and platting fees increase 6% in 2012 and 2013, and 7% annually thereafter. This recommendation is consistent with the prior year's report. Connection fees are an important source of revenue needed to expand the water system and pay for the second treatment plant. The water connection fund will maintain adequate cash to pay for expansion of the water system. The cash balance of the trunk fund will be sufficient to provide for capital costs. We have projected two bond issues in 2013 and 2016, which would provide financing for capital projects scheduled in those years. The graph below shows the anticipated cash balance in the trunk portion of the fund. 5 Water Trunk Fund Cash Balances 4,000,000 3,000,000 2,000,000 1,000,000 0 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 I N Ending Cash Balance 2,204,752 2,365,816 1 2,169,072 1 2,419,782 1 2,245,439 1 2,906,771 1 1,918,216 1 2,089,515 Sanitary Sewer Fund The City of Chanhassen is part of the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) regional treatment system. The single biggest expense in the operation of the sewer system is the MCES disposal charge. The City does not control the annual fees established by MCES, and those fees have increased significantly in the last three years. The Met Council is also facing pressures on operating rates as new construction of residential and commercial has slowed in the region. If the MCES rates are lower than anticipated in 2013 and later, the City may be able to correspondingly lower its rate increases. Year MCES Total Cost % Increase 2013 (projected) $1,646,000 8.29% 2012 (budget) $1,520,000 0% 2011 (budget) $1,520,000 10.9% 2010 $1,369,620 4.83% 2009 $1,306,564 9.59% In 2009 and 2010, the City increased the sewer rate 5% per year. There was no rate increase in 2011. The City has been able to raise rates more slowly than MCES by postponing capital improvements and using cash in the sewer operating fund. However, beginning in 2012, the City will need to begin increasing rates. The prior year's study projected a 6% annual increase in 2012 and 2013, and 5% annual increases thereafter. Currently, this analysis projects a 3% increase in 2012, a 6% in 2013 and 7% increases in 2014 and 2015. We are projecting a 5% increase in 2016 and thereafter. The delay in the rate increase was accomplished due to the fact that actual 2010 ending cash balances were better than projected. We are projecting that the fixed quarterly fee of $19.45, which includes up to 6,000 gallons of sewer discharge, should increase to $20.04. This is a 3% increase. Sanitary Sewer Capital Improvements The capital improvement plans for the sanitary sewer funds are attached in Exhibit B, which begins on page 14 of this report. The timing of the following planned capital improvements has been changed: • LS Trunk Lift Station #10 has been added for 2013. • The vactor /sewer jetting truck has been moved from 2015 to 2016. VA Sanitary Sewer Connection Fees As with the prior year's report, we are recommending that sanitary sewer connection and platting fees increase 4% in 2012 and annually thereafter. Connection and platting fees are an important source of revenue needed to expand the sanitary sewer system. Target Cash Reserves — Sanitary Sewer Funds Adequate cash reserves are needed to accommodate cash flow needs, fund emergency repairs, and save for larger future capital projects. The recommended rates keep the fee increases as low as possible and still leave the City's sewer system in adequate financial health. The projected cash balances for the sanitary sewer funds are shown in the following graphs. The target cash reserve equals 9 months of operating expenses. The target reserve is lower for sanitary sewer than water because replacement costs are expected to be less for the sanitary sewer system than the water system. 3,000,000 2,500,000 2,000,000 1,500,000 1,000,000 500,000 0 Target Reserves (9 mos. operating expense) ■ Ending Cash Balance The cash balance in the operating fund has dropped below the target reserve amount because growth has slowed and the MCES costs have increased faster than the user rates have increased. The above graph shows the need to implement annual rate increases in 2012. Growth is anticipated to slowly increase to 170 residential units per year in 2015. At that time, the cash in the sewer operating fund begins to grow and is expected to reach the target reserve level by 2019. The sewer connection fund is also expected to have adequate cash to pay for the capital costs of expanding Chanhassen's sanitary sewer system. The graph that follows shows the projecting ending trunk fund cash balance and capital costs. The cash balance declines in 2013 and 2018 when trunk lift station improvements are scheduled. We are not projecting bond issues to finance these improvements. M.

The following chart shows the proposed rates for storm water quarterly fees and for area charges for 2012 through 2016. City of Chanhassen Surface Water Utility Fees for Single Family Residential (Before Credits for On -Site Ponding and Outlets) The projected cash balances will be adequate to meet on -going storm water expenditures, which include pond maintenance, street reconstruction projects, implementing the surface water management plan, and acquiring land for future storm water retention. We also expect capital needs will grow as the state develops more regulatory requirements relating to storm water run -off and contaminated storm water ponds. The planned capital improvements are shown in Exhibit B, which begins on page 14 of this report.

Adequate cash balances allow the City to: • Weather changing circumstances without rapidly increasing rates; • Use cash to pay for many capital improvements and reduce the frequency of borrowing; and • Maintain its bond rating from Standard and Poor's. The study assumes that the City will finance utility improvements if there is not sufficient cash available. No financing is expected for storm water improvements or utility improvements made in connection with 11 street replacement projects. In practice, the City staff will continue to use the rate study's financing plan as a guide and, in consultation with its independent financial advisor, consider when and how much debt to incur in any given year. Summary The economic and real estate crisis continues to affect the City of Chanhassen. The City is facing reduced utility revenues from connection fees and area charges, and slower revenue growth than previously anticipated from user fees. Furthermore, the City's ability to pass along cost increases to its customers is constrained. The City staff and Ehlers are recommending the following to manage the financial squeeze on the utility funds: 1. Postpone capital improvements when feasible 2. Use cash balances in the utility operating funds 3. Adopt the proposed rate increases for usage, fixed and connection fees across the City's Water, Sewer and Storm Sewer Funds. The City's utility funds continue to be well managed, and the City's utility rates are competitive in the region. A chart comparing Chanhassen's proposed 2012 rates to other communities' 2011 rates show that, even with a proposed increase for water, Chanhassen maintains relatively affordable utility rates, as shown on Exhibit A, page 13 of this report. 12 Exhibit A — Rate Comparison with Other Communities The graph below compares the proposed 2012 utility rates with the 2011 utility rates for five other metro communities. It shows that the City of Chanhassen continues to offer relatively affordable utility rates to its residents and businesses. The graph assumes a quarterly, residential usage of 27,000 gallons of water and 15,000 gallons of sanitary sewer. Total 2011 Water.
