�,�- i3 <br /> Balance revenues and expenditures <br /> The Water Fund is an enterprise fund which should be self-sustaining and pay for all on-going <br /> operations and maintenance costs. Pn�dent management practices indicate that revenues and <br /> expenditures should be in balance each fiscal y�ar, with an ending fund balance of less than � <br /> $500,000. <br /> Aistribute costs equitably aeross entire water system <br /> RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMERS <br /> � Dwelling Unit Equivalent (DUE) is defined as equal to one single family residential unit. A Basic <br /> Service Charge applying the DUE methodology is charged to every residential dwelling unit within <br /> the water system, as follows: <br /> SinQle Familv Residential Customer means one (1) independent dwelling unit per parcel of <br /> real property and equals one (1) DUE. <br /> Multi-Familv Residential Customer means more than one (1) dwelling unit per parcel of <br /> real property. The conversion schedule for applying the DUE methodology is as follows: <br /> 0 to 9 dwelling units: � 1.00 C�IJE �pplied per unit to basic service charge <br /> 1 Q to 59 dwelling units: 0.75 DUE applied per unit to b�sic service charge <br /> 60 and over dwelling units: 0.50 DUE applied per unit t� basic s�rvice ci�arge <br /> The benefits to customers of the DUE method of calculating bill� are: <br /> • Each dwelling unit enjoys lifeline rates for the first 10 units of water used. <br /> • The conversion schedule takes into account that the potential impact of higher density <br /> residential developments to the system is not as gPeat as other types of customers. <br /> COMMERCIAL CUSTOMERS <br /> The basic service charge for comrr�ercial accounts is determir�ed by applying a ratio of the flow _ <br /> limits of a"standard" 5/8"X3/4" meter, as established by the American Water Works Association <br /> (��WWA) in relationship to the flow capacity applied to the size of an individual commercial <br /> account meter. This formula is also used in setting.water.system Facilities Fees in the City: <br /> METER SIZE �WWA FLOW LIMIl"S�(GPM) RATIO <br /> 5/8"X3/4" 20 1.0 <br /> 3/4" 30 1.5 <br /> � �� 5� 2.5 <br /> 1 1 /2" 100 5.0 <br /> 2" 160 8.0 <br /> In effect, the Basic Service Charge for a 2-inch commercial meter will be eight (8) times that of a <br /> "standard" 5/8"X3/4" meter, since the system must be able support eight tim�s th� potential flow <br /> for that customer. � <br /> Page 2 of 3 <br />
