Key rate issues include SFPUC wholesale <br />water rate increases, financial impacts of a proposed expansion of the water recycling <br />system, implementation of an aggressive conservation program, and changes in the water <br />facilities fee to include a water supply component. <br />5.4.1 SFPUC Wholesale Water Rates - <br />Regarding water rates, the main driver of the water cost increases will be wholesale <br />purchased water costs from the SFPUC. Table 5.2 shows projections of SFPUC water <br />costs based on the SFPUC Capital Improvement Plan and Long -Range Financial Plan. <br />The City can expect its purchased water costs to go up by 188% by 2011 /12. The actual <br />rate increases to City customers will be less, as SFPUC purchased water costs amount to <br />only about 50% of current annual enterprise costs. Still, assuming an annual increase of <br />other costs of 3.5% will lead total water fund costs to increase by 7.5% annually out to <br />2011/12. This is much higher than historical increases experienced by the City. <br />M <br />
