MAYOR
September 1, 1988
The Honorable James Scheibel
and Members of the City Council
7th Floor City Hall
Attention: Bob Long, Chairman, Finance, Management and Personnel Committee
Dear President Scheibel and Council Members:
I am transmitting a proposed Sewer Rate Structure for the last quarter of 1988 and all of 1989. The
Proposal is based on the recommendation of the Department of Public Works dated August 31, 1988.
Since proposing the 1989 Budget for the Sewer Seroice Fund, more current data regarding Metropolitan
Waste Control Commission charges and credits have become available. Based on the new data, I am
recommending that the 1989 spending plan be adjusted to provide$100,000 for the Youth Jobs Program in
the Sewer Division, and that the Sewer Maintenance Program be increased. And at the same time, I am
recommending a downward adjustment in charges for sewage treatment, allowing for a net reduction in
spending of$568,114.
I am recommending that current sanitary sewer rates be reduced by approximately 18%. Based on a
proposed three step rate structure, the average Saint Paul home's annual sewer bill would be reduced
$35 from $190 to$155.
These proposed sewer service charges will be discussed at the public hearing before the City Council on
September 20, 1988. The Finance, Management and Personnel Committee of the City Council will hold an
informational meeting on the proposed rates on September 6 at 7:00 p.m. in the City Council chambers.
The Public Works Director, the Sewer Engineer and the Budget Director are ready to assist you in your
rate structure deliberations. Our recommendations for 1989 rates take into account the Council's desire
for long term rate stability.
Very truly yours,
Geor Latimer

Re: Sanitary Sewer Service Rates
Dear Mayor Latimer:
I submit for your approval and transmittal to the City Council the recommended
Sewer Service Rate Schedule for the period from October 1, 1988 through
December 31, 1989. The rates recommended finance 1989 anticipated
expenses, allow for an 18% reduction in current rates for low volume users, and
provide for long term rate stability. This matter is scheduled for public hearing
before the City Council on September 20, 1988. The Finance, Management
and Personnel Committee of the City Council will hold an informational meeting
on the proposed rates on September 6 at 7:00 p.m. in the City Council
Chambers.
The following are the itemized anticipated expenditures, credits and
financing for the 1989 budget year for the Sewer Service Fund:
ExBenditures:
Metropolitan Waste Control Commission Gross Charges $15,518,000
Services 610,667

TOTAL FINANCING $37,185,276
(1) Sanitary Sewer Service Charge Revenue to balance the budget
The Sewer Service Fund expenditures include funding for the Rainleader
Disconnect Program and the Inflow/Infiltration (I & I) program. These are related
programs and are mandated by the city's National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) permit. Inflow is stormwater discharging directly
into the sanitary sewer system through rainleaders, catch basins, etc. Infiltration
is groundwater entering the sewer through cracked pipes, poor joints, manhole
walls and other similar sanitary sewer system leaks. The I & I program is a key
component in the final step of the sewer separation program, the elimination of
over 240 sanitary sewer regulators which serve as "safety-valves" to the
combined sewer system. When these sewers surcharge during rainstorms, the
regulators divert the excess combined sewage to the river. Once an area has
its sewers separated and rainleaders disconnected, the major source of inflow
to the sanitary sewer will have been eliminated. Before a regulator can be
sealed, it must be assured that the sanitary sewer does not have an excessive
amount of I & I that would cause system failure or sewer backups. A separate
budget has been prepared for the I & I program beginning in 1989. However,
beginning early this summer, rainleader staff made some preliminary
investigations and began to develop this program.
, ��-��an
� Mayor George Latimer 3
The expansion in the Rainleader Program was accomplished last year by the
hiring of temporary city employees and the utilization of over twenty Transition
workers whose wages were paid by a grant from the McKnight Foundation. The
Transitions program was designed to enable chronically unemployed citizens of
Saint Paul to develop positive attitudes and gain the work experience and/or
skills necessary to make a successful transition into the competitive job market.
The Rainleader and Inflow/Infiltration programs will have an authorized
permanent staff of 10 persons. Approximately 10 additional seasonal workers
will be employed between 1989-1995. These programs will use persons
trained through the Transitions and Job Corps Programs.
The Youth Jobs Program is a new Sewer Service Fund activity for 1989. A
budget of $100,000 is being requested. This funding is intended to allow the
Department to expand its recruitment of youth workers in 1989. So far, the
program has been limited to students who meet strict income limitations of the
agencies who can provide funding for the youth worker wages. These agencies
have also been limited as to the number of students that they can provide to us.
The Metropolitan Waste Control Commission report on the final cost allocation
for the year 1987 (not including Lake Overflow) is anticipated to indicate a city
sewage flow volume of 14,900 million gallons. This is significantly below the
estimate made in October, 1986, of 18,700 million gallons. The cash payments
to the MWCC in 1987 were, therefore, significantly more than needed. This
resulted in an overpayment in excess of $1,500,000 and has been applied as a
credit toward the 1989 charges.
Sewer system financing this year refleets the use of 1988 Revenue Bond
proceeds and interest on investments that will be utilized to partially finance the
Combined Sewer and Street Program. Also, the budget reflects the five cent
surcharge on the water revenue to the residents of the City of Saint Paul to pay
the Water Utility's annual facility relocation costs that are a part of the CSSP
program.
You will note that the extra revenues provided from the bond sale and the
significant Metropolitan Waste Control Commission credits in excess of $2.5
Million have been used to substantially reduce the existing sanitary sewer rates.
There remains a fund balance to stabiliie rates in subsequent years.
Since establishing a sewer service charge based on volume in 1971 , the city
has maintained a rate structure containing fiv . This year, a three ste�
rate structure is being recommended. This charge should simplify the rate
structure and not significantly affect the sewer service charges to the large water
use industries. The Department of Public Works recommends a rate structure
which will generate $21,717,176 after a 3% allowance for delinquencies.
. ��-����
Mayor George Latimer 4
The recommended rates to become effective October 1, 1988, are as foilows
per 100 cubic feet:
Present Rate Structure* 1987 Rate Present Rate 1988/1989
First 100,000 Cubic Feet $1.46 $1.90
Next 200,000 Cubic Feet 1.44 1.51
Next 200,000 Cubic Feet 1.41 1.48
Next 500,000 Cubic Feet 1.38 1.45
Over 1,000,000 Cubic Feet 1.34 1.41
Pronosed Rate Structure
First 100,000 cubic feet $1.55
Next 400,000 cubic feet 1.50
Over 500,000 cubic feet 1.45
' Rates are per 100 cubic feet of water consumption
As you will note, the first step rate is being decreased 18% from current
charges. Based on 2,500 cubic feet during the winter quarter, the average
yearly household cost for sanitary sewer service will be $155.00 for the last
quarter of 1988 and for all of 1989. This is a reduction of $35.00 annually from
the current rate.
