Commission adopts ordinance updating industrial-wastewater charges and fees
Summary
On second reading the commission adopted Ordinance No. O-26-18 to revise charges and fees for industrial pretreatment and to provide an automatic increase of up to 2.5% each October; no public comment was offered during the hearing.
The city attorney read Ordinance No. O-26-18, an amendment to the city's industrial pretreatment ordinance to adopt a revised schedule of charges and fees for treatment of industrial wastewater and to provide for an automatic increase of up to 2.5 percent on the first of each October. Staff noted the item had been presented previously at first reading and in workshops; the commission closed the public hearing (no public speakers) and voted to adopt the ordinance on second reading.
Why it matters: the ordinance updates how industrial users are charged for wastewater treatment and clarifies applicability and administrative items; the automatic indexing clause adjusts fees annually by up to 2.5 percent.
