WATER 6 SEWER RATES
• EXECJTIVE SUMMARY
1. GENERALt
The City. of Denton last, adjusted the water and sewer rates.
approximately three years ago in June of 1978. At that time, the
consultants, Touche Ross of Dallas, conducted a complete Cost of
Service Study and Management Study of the Water and Sewer
Departments and proposed the rates presently in effect.
Due to the rising costs of purchased water, production power,
chemicals, salaries, debt service and transfers to the General Fund,
the rates generally have been insufficient for the past year and a
half. In fiscal year 1980, the water and Sewer Department
+ experienced a cash deficit of $1,142,848. Combined with a cash
deficit of $312,075 from previous years, the Water and Sewer
Department now has a cash deficit of $1,454,923. The Water P.nd
Sewer Department has experienced or continued in a cash deficit
position since prior to 1970. The cash deficit in 1970 was
approximately $651,000 and increased to $1,286,000 in 1977. Some
progress was made toward reducing the cash deficit in 1978-79 after
instituting the new rates in 1978. Due to inaccuracies fr.,m
consumption reports generated by the data processing system, the
magnitude of the 1980 cash deficit was not 'ealized until the audit
was complete in January of 1981. This cash deficit is presently
being funded from the cash surplus of the Electric Department.

11. REVENUE REQUIREMENTS:
To determine the rates, it, was first necessary to make projections
of future revenue requirements. The future revenue requirements
were based on the following:
I
A. The planning period used was from 1981 through 1984 which
coincides with the already devQloped Five Year Capital
Improvement plan approved by the Public Utilities Board an-.1
City Council in July 1980.
I
B. The 1981 budget was used as a starting reference for
projecting future expenditures. The number of personnel
employed waa anticipated to increase by 28 per year with
salaries to increase by 108 per year.
C. Supplies and maintenance were anticipated to increase 10%
per year.
D. Production Power for the Water Plant was based upon
historical energy required per 1000 gallon multiplied by the
estimated gallons required per year and estimated energy
costs. A corresponding calculation was made for wastewater
pumping costs at the Sewer Plan:.
E. The cost of Production Power was estimated to increase at
a rate of between 129 and 15% per year.
F. Administrative Services which includes all customer
service accounting, finance, data processing, legal, and
other general government services, was estimated to Increase
by $50,000 from 1981 to 1982, to reflect increased costs for
the new data processing system. Administrative Servicea were
escalated at 3 108 rate thereafter.
-3-
G. The cost of Purchased Water was increased from the
present 50 per 1,000 gallons to 18C per 1,000 gallons, and
increased at a rate of approximately lot per year thereafter.
H. Insurance and Sundry expenses were assumed to increase at
a rate of approximately 10% per year.
I. Bad Debts were increased froii the 1980 level of $19,000
to an estimated 1981 level of $40,000 because of the proposed
new policy wherein no penalty charges will be assessed for
late payment. Bad debts were estimated to increase at a rage
of 108 thereafter.
J. Debt Service expenditures were based on existing and
estimated future bond issues. The debt service for the future
bond issues was based on a twenty year levelized payout at
lot interest. Bond sales were based upon cfsh requirements of
• the presently approved Five Year Capital Improvemants Plan.
The Water Department presently has $800,000 of remaining
bonds authorized, but unsold. The Wastewater Department has
$2.2 million authorized, but unsold,
1. It is anticipated that a $3 million bond issue will
be sold in January of 1982.
2. It is anticipated that an additional $3 mil],ion
bond issue will be sold in January 1983.
K. The Cash Deficit of $1,454,923 was scheduled for
repayment at a rate of $250,000 in 1981, $400,000 in 1982,
$440,000 in 1983, and approximately $4000000 in 1984.
However, due to the 1.3 debt service overage ratio criteria
of the bond covenants, additional revenues appear to be
available and an earlier repa;Tent of the cash deficit may be
possible.
-4-
L. Transfers tea tz:9 General Fund were based on 6t of equity
excluding fF;deral grant proceeds.
requirements were analyzed using four However, revenue
for
calculating transfers to the General Fund. These were:
1. Transfers based on 6% of equity, inc ing
federal Qrant proceeds.
2. Transfers based on 68 of equity, excludin3
federal grant proceeds.
3. Transfers based on 68 of gross receipts.
(similar to method used in 1979 a;1d 1980)
4. Transfers based on 49 of gross receipts.
(This is the basis for private utility franchise
taxes.)
A main issue in the development of the rates had initially been the
methodology used in establishing the amount of transfers to the
General Fund, since the transfers were the controlling factor in
determining the rates. In the initial analysis of the revenue
requirements, debt service was based on 25
interest. Principal repayment was based on 2-1/21 of the principal
amount for the first four years with the remaining 90% spread
equally over the remaining 20 years. The Finance Director
recommended that, in today's market, a more appropriate debt service
repayment would be a 20 year issue with 108 interest and equalized
principal re-payment per year. After making these adjustments in
the debt service and recognizing bond covenent requirements that
revenues available for debt service must exceed the maximum debt
oervice in any one year by a factor of 1.3, debt service then became
the controlling factor in determining total revenue requirements
rather than the level of transfers to the General Fund.
r
~w
-5- .
Although transfers to the General Fund are not presently the
controlling factor for determining the rates, the transfers do have
a future effect on the rates. Revenues remaining after payment of
operating expenses, debt service, and the cash deficit are used for
transfers to the General Fund and for capital projects. Therefore,
the greater the transfer to the General Fund, the fewer funds there
are available for capital projects funded from internally generated
capital. Normally 30-40% of the capital
projects are funded from
internally generated funds, so that a debt to equity ratio of 608
debt to 40% equity (60/40) can be maintained. This is considered an
acceptable debt/equity ratio by the bond markets. In the short
term, Denton is able to reduce the amount of capital funding from
internally generated funds and increase the funding from bond funds
because of the large amount of federal grants received which will
improve the combined water/sewer debt to equity ratio to 37/63.
However, increasing capital funding from bonds then caungs the debt
service to increase; which then becomes the controlling factor in
determining the rates.
Exhibits A-I, A-II, b A-III, attached hereto, are bar graphs that
indicate the relative increases in revenue reCtiirements in the
various categories from 1980 through 1982. Purchased water costs
are estimated to increase from $67,000 in 1980 to $256,000 in 1981
and $306,000 in 1983. Debt Service is anticipated to increase from
$907,000 In 1980 to $1,001000 in 1981 and $11697,000 in 1984.
Transfers to the General Fund are calculated to increase from
$345,000 In 1980, to $427,000 in 1981, to $613,000 in 1984.
In summary, the total revenue requirements are as follows;

III. DEVELOPMENT OE' THE RATES:
•
After the revenue requirements were developed, the relative
increases for the water and sewer rates were developed.
The rates proposed were developed to be sufficient to provide
adequate revenues through 1982. It is estimated that the rates will
need to be reviewed again - in the first quarter of 1983.- The rates
proposed generally represent a 331 increase in the water , and a 388
Increase for the sewer.
The rates were generally established by applying an across-the-board
percentage increase to the existing rates as developed by Touche
Ross as a result of their Cost of Service Study in 1978.
In the proposed rates, some changes were made in the rate structures
developed by Touch Ross's 1978 Cost of Service StL y. These changes
are:
A. Declining block rates for residential water customers
has been eliminated.
B. All rates have a facility charge plus a flat volume
charge.
C. Residential water rates increase by 151 during the
summer months for all usage over 20,004 gallons.
D, No sewer volume is provided in the basic facility
charge in the residential and commercial sewer rates.
E. Maximum sewer rates for residential customers will be
based on 25,000 gallons of the second highest winter
month (November, December, January), rather than the
present 20,000 gallons.
•
-7-
The current water rate for residential customers is structured with
declining blocks. As vellume usage increases, the volume charge per
1000 gallons declines. The proposed rates will eliminate the
declining block structure by charging all volume at a flat rate. In
the proposed rate structure, it is being recommended that all
volumes in excess of 20,000. gallons used during the months of June,
July, August and September be charged at the rate of $1.15 per 1000
gallons as opposed to the flat rate volume charge of $1.00 per 1000
gallons. This is similar to the City of Dallas' water conservation
incentive whereby they charge an additional 180 per 1000 gallons for
all residential use over 20,000 gallons during the summer months.
A minimum charge of $2.95 per month currently exists in the water
rate structure for the residential customers. It is proposer] that
this charge be increased to $3.00 per month, and that a minimum
charge for commercial water customers be increased from $5.00 to
$6.50 per month.
Under the existing residential sewer rates, a maximum volume of
20,000 gallons was established. At the time the maximum volume
usage was set, it was felt that less than 2% of the total j
residential customers would ever exceed 20,000 gallons. Further
investigations have shown that this limit is too low and it to being
recommended that the maximum volume allowance be raised to 25,000
gallons.
The existing residential and sewer rates allowed 2000
gallons an6 4000 gallons respec.•ir::i to be charged as part of the
customer charge. Under the ptupor-nA rates, the customer charges
grill no longer carry a volume allow,,nc,e.
-8- '
• The impact that the proposed water and sewer rates will have on
various customer classes is outlined in Exhibit Xi of the Rate
Design Study. The average customer uses approximately 10,000
gallons per month. The proposed rates will increase the water bill
I
by 17.1% or fron, the present $11.10/month to the proposed
$13.00/month. The sewer bill would increase by 37.7% or from the
present $7.19/month to the proposed $9.90/month.
However, the summer water conservation incentiv-: rate will have a
greater impact on the larger water users. For example, a
residential customer using 50,000 gallons during the month of July
will be billed $57.50 as opposed to being billed $41.10 under
existing rates. This will represent an approximate increase of 40%.
In keeping with the recently adopted electric rates and previous
Public Utilities Board recommendations, the penalty charge for late
payment of water and sewer bills is being dropped. A separate
. ordinance has been prepared to amend the pertinent ordinance
sections to accomplish this. The effective date for dropping the
penalty charge will be April 7, 1981, to coincide with the penalty
charge deletion on the electric rates.
The suggested schedule for implementing the proposed rates is may
11, 1981, for all retail customers. By contract, the City of Denton
must give t',e City of Corinth. 90 days notice. Therefore, the rates
for the City of Corinth would be effective for consumption after
July 6, 1981.

INTRODUCTION
• In 1978, the City of Denton employed Touche Ross & Company to do a
cost of service and rate design study for the water and wastewater
utility system. Rates were designed to meet revenue requirements
through fiscal year 1979-80. The rates were implemented in June of
1978. Therefore, it is necessary to again review the revenue
requirements and associated rates for the water/wastewater utility
system.
Several major factors are impacting the revenue requirements for the
water and wastewater utility system.. Some of these factors are:
1. An estimated 120 to 150 per 1000 gallon increase in the
cost of purchased water. .
2. Increases in the cost of chemicals for treating water
and wastewater.
3. Increases in the cost of electricity for pumping water
and wastewater.
4. Increases in debt service for the Wastewater 't'reatment
Plant to meet Denton's growing needs and the
Environmental Protection Agency's wastewater treatment
criteria.
5. Increased construction of water lines and sewer lines
• to meet the growing community's needs.
Projected revenue requirements were developed for 19810 1982, 1983
and 1984. Proposed rates were developed to meet the
water/wastewater utility system's requirements through the fiscal
year 1982. It is anticipated that another review of the
water/wastewater rates will be required in January of 1983.
The revenue requirements were developed for five different
scenarios. Since the wastewater utility system will be receiving in
excess of 7.5 millon dollars over the next two years through a grant
from the Environmental Protection Agency, the equity of the
wastewater utility system will increase substantially during those
years causing the transfers to the General Fund based on a 6% equity
amount to increase from a present $420,000 to an estimated
$10365,522 in 1984. This will cause a significant burden for the
rate payers of the wastewater treatment system.
The revenue requirements were developed considering the following
five alternative methods of determining transfers to the General
Fundi
1. Transfers based on 61 of system equity including equity
• derived from Federal gracits.
2. Transfers based on 6% of equity excluding equity
derived from Federal grants.
3. Transfers based on 6% of gross revenues.
4. Transfers based on 4% of gross revenues.
5. No transfers.
•
REVENUE REQUIREMENTS
The revenue requirements developed were based on fiscal 1981
budgeted amounts with the individual categories of labor, power,
chemicals, etc., escalated at a rate between 81 and 121 for the
subsequent years. Purchased water costs were estimated to be
18t/1000 gallons. The number of customers and water requirements
and wastewater treatment volumes were base upon recent water supply
study calculations. Cap tal m rovements were based on the City of
Denton's Five Year Capital Improvement Plan as approved in 1980.
Appropriate corrections were made to the Five Year Capital
Improvement Plan to reflect the latest estimated costs for the
various capital construction projects. Debt service amounts were
based upon present debt service plus additional amounts to recognize
the sale of the final three million dollars of authorized water and
sewer bonds in January 1982, with a subsequent sale of three million
dollars of water and sewer bonds in January 1983. The bonds were
assumed to be 20 year bonds with an interest rate of 101. Capital
improvements funded from current revenues was estimated at between
$210,000 and $250,000 per year.
When the rates proposed by the Touche Ross and Company were adupted
in 1978, there existed a cash deficit of $750,000. The rates were
designed to recover the $750,000 cash deficit over a five year
period. In fiscal year 1978 significant progress. was made in
reducing this cash deficit. However, in subsequent years, revenues
have not been sufficient to offset, the increasing costs for
• chemicals, electrical power, necessary capital improvements, etc.,
and at the end of fiscal year 1981, there existed a $1.4 million
cash deficit in the water/wastewater utility system. The revenue
requirements proposed included recovering this cash deficit by 1984
with $250,000 being recovered in fiscal year 1981, $400,000 in 1982,
$400,000 in 1983, and $400,000 in 1984. However, in reworking the
debt schedule for the pre-mentioned 1982 and 1983 bond issuer,, it
was discovered that the bond covenents, requiring a 1.3 maximum year
debt coverage, provided larger cash surpluses in the first two
years, and have thus acted towards accelerating the deficit
repayment.
Minimum water and sewer revenue requirements were developed for the
years 1991 through 1984 considering various alternative methods of
determining the transfers to the General Fund. Transfers to the
General Fund vary significantly depending upon the methodology
utilized in determining such transfers. Thes6 revenue requirements
and associated various transfers are included in Exhibit I.
he previously mentioned, the bond covenents requiring a 1.3 maximum
year debt coverage factor is the controlling factor in determining
total revenue requirements, rather than the level of transfers to
the General Fund. in other words, revenues produced in fiscal year
1980-81 must be sufficient to pay existing and new debt services on
the largest annual debt service requirement which in this case is a
requirement of $1,501,228 in 1985. Exhibit summarizes the
• effects the 1982 and 1983 bond Issues will have on t e maximum year
debt service requirements. Although the various general fund
transfer methodologies do not impact rate levels, it is important to
note that the transfers will have a significant bearing on the
repayment of the cash deficit. As the level of General Fund
transfers increase, cash surpluses for deficit retirement will
decrease correspondingly.
RATE DESIGN-TREATED WATER
• The present rate structure for residential and commercial customer4
in the City of Denton is as follows:
BLOCK RATE
Residential
Customer Charge $2.10 per mo.
0-10,000 gals $ .90 per 1000 gals.
10-50,000 gals $ .75 per 1000 gals.
Above 50,000 gals $ .70 per 1000 gals.
Commercial/Industrial
Customer Charge $5.00 per mo.
Volume Charge $ .68 per 1000 gals.
The rates proposed herein are based on an extrapolation of the cost
of service study and rate base principals established in the Touche
Ross and Company Study of 1978. In the Touche Ross Study, the
analysis of the usage characteristics for the residential class
indicated the following characteristics:
Average monthly water usage of approximately 10,000 gallons
per residential customer.
67.51 of all residential customers use 10,000 gallons or less
per month.
61.5 of all resident
• tai water consumption would
or below 10,000 be bi,.led at
gallons.
98.61 of all residential customers use 50,000 or less.
901 of all residential water consumption would be billed at or
below 50,000.
We are recommending that the present declining block rate for
residential water consumption be eliminated and that a flat rate per
1000 gallons be adopted. We are further recommending that we follow
the City of Dallas' water conservation incentive rate principle and
charge a $ .15 per 1000 gallon premium for all water usage during the
summer in excess of 20,000 gallons.
Although five different revenue alternatives are being proposed, we
are proposing as the base case, rates developed considering transfers
based on 61 of equity exaludina grants. The recommended base case
rate is as follows:
0
• BLOCK RATE
Residential
ustomer C arge $3.00/mo.

A tabulation of the present water rates and proposed water rates are
listed on Exhibit Ii. The revenues resulting from the proposed rates
are listed on Exhibit IV. The pro-forma schedules for all five
proposed rate methods are listed on Exhibits V, VI, VII, VIII, and IX.
RATE DESIGK-WASTEWATER SYSTEM
The preaent rate structure for residential and commercial sanitary
sewer customers in the City of Denton is as follows:
BLOCK RATE
Residential
0-2000 gallons ;2.95/month
2-20,000 gallons $ .53/1000 gallons
Commercial/Industrial
0-4000 gallons $5.00/month
Above 4000 gallons $ .60/1000 gallons
The proposed rates herein are based on an extrapolation of the cost
of service study and rate base principles established in the Touche
Ross and Company Study of 1978.
We are recommending in the proposed rates that a monthly customer
facility charge be established which does not include any volume
amount. The volume amount for each class of customers is proposed to
be a flat rate amount.
Because of the receipt of substantial grant funds, the sewer revenues
are significantly impacted by the transfer of 6% of equity including
grant contributions. Therefore, we are proposing as the base case
rates developed considering transfers based on 6% of equity excluding
grant contributions. The recommended base case rate is as follows:
BLOCK RATE
Residential
customer Charge $2.75/month
0-25,000 gallons $ .82/1000 gallons
Equal monthly billings shall be established annually in May and based
on the second highest monthly rate of water consumption (multiplied
by .98 during the previous Dec., Jan., and February.
Commercial/Industrial
Customer arge $6.00/month
Volume Charge $ .88/1000 gallons
Billings shall be based on 808 of water consumption.
