2 1 Single family residential accounts and multi-family residential accounts with 2-9 dwelling units are assigned 1.00 Dwelling Unit Equivalent (DUE) per dwelling unit. Multi-family residential accounts with 10 to 59 dwelling units are assigned 0.75 DUEs per dwelling unit. Multi-family accounts with 60 or more dwelling units are assigned 0.50 DUEs per dwelling unit. The monthly Basic Service Charge for each residential account is calculated by multiplying the Basic Service Charge shown above by the number of DUEs on the customer’s account. The water quantity charge for each residential account is calculated based on the rates shown above, but with the volume of water included in each tier multiplied by the number of DUEs on the customer’s account. For example, under the proposed rates, a customer with 3 DUEs would pay the Tier 1 rate for the first 24 units of water used per bimonthly billing period, the Tier 2 rate for the 25th through 60th unit of water use, the Tier 3 rate for the 61st through 120th unit of water use, and the Tier 4 rate for any additional water use. 2 A 'unit' of water is one hundred cubic feet (hcf) of metered water use, which is equivalent to approximately 748 gallons. 3 Charged to customers with separate commercial meters for potable water landscaping, based on a 'water budget' calculated according to the City's 'water budget methodology', which is available at www.redwoodcity.org/utilityrates. 4 For the first five years of recycled water use, the City has historically provided a 25% discount to commercial recycled water bills and a 40% discount to industrial recycled water bills. Pass Through Provision for Wholesale Water Rates: The proposed water rates assume that the SFPUC will increase its wholesale water rates from the current level of $3.75 per hcf to $4.10 per hcf on July 1, 2016; to $4.28 per hcf on July 1, 2017; and to $4.68 per hcf on July 1, 2018. The City proposes to pass through any additional increases in SFPUC wholesale water rates above these levels each year.
