Council Agenda Item \[05b\]
MEETING DATE: December 5, 2016
AGENDA ITEM: Public Hearing - 2017 Fee Schedule
SUBMITTED BY: Finance
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: None
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: Council met in November to review the fee schedule. Council
hired Carl Brown Consulting to conduct a comprehensive rate analysis for water and sewer in late 2015,
early 2016.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: A public hearing is required under State Statutes prior to
changing the fee schedule. Staff published a public hearing notice in the November 18, 2016 St. Joseph
Newsleader. The proposed fee schedule was available for public viewing.
Fees proposed to change are highlighted in yellow. Most changes represent an increase in fees.
Development fees under the regular fee schedule for water access and water meters are proposed to
change. The water access (WAC) fee is scheduled to increase $100/year until the fee reaches $5,000 per
unit. Council approved this scale when the second water treatment facility was constructed. The water
meter fees are based on cost quotes we receive from the supplier.
City Council adopted a three-tiered fee increase for the liquor fees in Dec. 2015. There will be scheduled
increases through 2018. Liquor license holders had the opportunity to discuss the increases at a public
hearing and were notified of the council’s decision.
There are a few new fees added with the construction of the government center and purchase of Colts
Academy. The government center will have an electronic sign where advertisers can purchase space to
scroll ads for a period of time. The community room in the government center will be available to rent in
2017. The Colts Academy gym space will have open times for use in 2017. A group may also rent the
gym space for events. Rental/open gym fees were added to the fee schedule to cover overhead cost of
using the space. A front door clerk will be needed to open gym times.
Other fees include increased impound fees to cover city costs for catching and hauling stray dogs to the
animal shelter. Bulk water sales, swimming pool fills, and mobile meter fees are based on the proposed
water rates sold at a premium. Sewer dumping is a premium sewer charge for illegal dumping. The
easement permit fee is new for 2017. City staff are spending more time reviewing requests involving
easements. The fee is intended to cover city costs. The fire call/drill pay was approved in Feb. 2016 to
increase over a two year period up to $12/call.
Finally, staff is proposing an increase in the water usage fee and sewer line charge based on the
recommendations made by Carl Brown Consulting in early 2016. The sewer usage fee is proposed to stay
the same as adopted by Council for the Nov. 2015 billing. The increases meet the minimum operating
charge without funding reserves. To offset the increases in the water/sewer fees, staff recommends
keeping the other utilities at the same rate as 2016. The other utility funds have reserve balances to cover
expenses over user charges. The chart below summarizes the water and sewer bill impact for a St. Joseph
resident compared to other area communities. Other utility fees were left out since each community has
different funding sources for those services.
