Recycling contamination occurs when non-recyclable materials are placed in recycling
containers, or recyclables are not adequately cleaned before disposal. Reduction strategies
included cart/container tagging, removing contaminants before collection, and educatingcustomers on proper recycling practices. Staff contact: Brian Boerner, Solid Waste andRecycling
E.Fall Lights Out – Peak fall bird migration is from Sept. 5 to Oct. 29; during this time, Texaswill see nearly a quarter of all U.S. migratory birds in our skies, most at night. The City ofDenton recognizes “Lights Out Nights” during the peak migration period and encouragesresidents and businesses to turn off non-essential lighting between 11 p.m. and 6 a.m.
Essential lighting should follow dark sky-friendly practices, such as using shields to directlight downwards. On Sept. 5, 2024, Denton Municipal Electric began dimming residentialstreetlights for peak migration and will return them to normal levels after Oct. 29, 2024.

Upcoming Community Events and Public Meetings
Please visit the City of Denton website for upcoming community events and details.
Intergovernmental Affairs
On Thursday, Sept. 5, the Senate Committee on Local Government convened to discuss interim charges on several city-related matters, including the implementation of Senate Bill 2038 (S.B. 2038). This legislation states that residents and landowners may petition to have an area within a
city’s extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) removed from the ETJ. The bill outlines two methods for
ETJ release: (1) a petition initiated by residents or landowners or (2) an election held within the ETJ area to determine the outcome.
The City of Denton and 37 other cities submitted a letter to the committee outlining concerns about
the law’s impact and its practical challenges. In addition, the Texas Municipal League provided testimony, offering recommendations on how the legislation could better align with inter-local agreements, local administration of public improvement districts (PID), certificates of convenience and necessity (CCNs), and development agreements. City staff will continue to monitor developments on this issue.

INFORMAL STAFF REPORT TO MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: 2024 Atmos Rate Filing and Approval
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Atmos Mid-Tex filed for a system-wide rate increase for the next year, beginning Oct. 1, 2024. The City of Denton, through its membership in a coalition of cities, has evaluated the requested increase and negotiated a reduction in Atmos’ overall request. The City of Denton retains original jurisdiction over gas utility rates and must approve any rate increases.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Denton (“City”), along with 181 other Texas cities served by Atmos Energy Corp.,
Mid-Tex Division (“Atmos Mid-Tex”), is a member of the Atmos Cities Steering Committee (ACSC). In 2007, ACSC and Atmos Mid-Tex settled a rate application filed by Atmos for an interim rate adjustment, commonly referred to as a GRIP filing, arising out of the Gas Reliability Infrastructure Program legislation. That settlement created a new rate review process, called Rate
Review Mechanism (“RRM”), as a substitute for the GRIP statute in future rate filings. This
process has been in place with some modifications since that time.
DISCUSSION: On or about April 1, 2024, Atmos Mid-Tex filed a rate request pursuant to the RRM Tariff
adopted by ACSC members. The Company claimed that its cost-of-service in a test year ending
December 31, 2023, entitled it to additional system-wide revenues of $196.8 million.
Applying the standards set forth in ACSC’s RRM Tariff reduces the Company’s request to $182.5 million, $132.6 million of which would apply to ACSC members. After reviewing the
filing and conducting discovery, ACSC’s consultants concluded that the system-wide deficiency
under the RRM regime should be $149.6 million instead of the claimed $182.5 million.
After several settlement meetings, the parties have agreed to settle the case for $164.7 million. This is a reduction of $32.1 million to the Company’s initial request. This includes payment of
ACSC’s expenses.
Summary:
$196.8M: Atmos Original Request (system-wide) $182.5M: RRM Tariff Applied Standard (system-wide) $149.6M: RRM Tariff Reviewed of Applied Standard (system-wide) $164.7M: Agreed Upon Review/Negotiation $32.1M: Savings from Atmos Original Request
6
Date: September 06, 2024 Report No. 2024-033
Bill Impact: The settlement's impact on average residential rates is an increase of $5.52 monthly or 6.84
percent. The increase for average commercial usage will be $13.39, or 3.44 percent. A bill
impact comparison containing these figures is attached.
RRM Savings Over GRIP: The GRIP process does not allow any review of the reasonableness of capital investment. It does
not allow cities to participate in the Railroad Commission’s review of annual GRIP filings or
allow recovery of Cities’ rate case expenses. The Railroad Commission undertakes a mere administrative review of GRIP filings (instead of a full hearing), and rate increases go into effect without any material adjustments. In ACSC’s view, the GRIP process unfairly raises customers’ rates without any regulatory oversight. In contrast, the RRM process has allowed for a more
comprehensive rate review and annual evaluation of expenses and revenues, as well as capital
investment.
While residents outside municipal limits must pay rates governed by GRIP, some cities served by Atmos Mid-Tex chose to remain under GRIP rather than adopt RRM. When new rates become effective on October 1, 2024, ACSC customers will maintain a monthly cost advantage
over GRIP and DARR rates.
CONCLUSION:
The RRM process has proven to result in a more efficient and less costly (both from a consumer rate impact perspective and from a rate-making perspective) than the GRIP process. Given Atmos Mid-Tex’s claim that its historic cost of service should entitle it to recover $196.8 million in additional system-wide revenues, the RRM settlement at $164.7 million for ACSC members reflects substantial savings to ACSC cities. Settlement at $164.7 million is fair and reasonable.
Staff will recommend the City Council approve an ordinance approving the proposed rates at the September 17, 2024 Council meeting, with the new rates becoming effective on October 1, 2024.
