Fiscal Year 2016 BUDGET
March 12, 2015 Board of Trustees Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District 2350 Market Street St. Louis, MO 63103 Dear Trustees: The mission of the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District (MSD) is to protect the public’s health and safety, and the region’s water environment, by responsibly providing wastewater and stormwater management. In fulfilling our mission, we focus on delivering sound fiscal management and fostering a business-focused culture throughout the organization. As we continue to build upon our progress over the past several years, in fiscal year (FY) 2016, we will remain focused on several key areas of overall operations, while being fiscally responsive to the needs of the St. Louis region: STRATEGIC BUSINESS AND OPERATING PLAN – MSD’s management is committed to running this utility like a business. A key aspect of this effort is MSD’s Strategic Business and Operating Plan (SBOP). The FY 2016 SBOP is a business-focused blueprint for serving our customers now and into the future. It is a plan that puts the customers and the St. Louis community first. The SBOP goals are clear: Deliver consistent, high quality customer service; Comply with all legal and regulatory requirements and schedules; Minimize customer rate increases; Be accountable to the St. Louis community The SBOP is tied to the budgeting process to ensure that initiatives are properly funded. Each department prepares a base budget that covers funding for its day-to-day operations, and an incremental budget for strategic activities that are to be implemented throughout the budget year. A detailed budget review process ensures an in-depth review of all budgetary requests. If fiscal constraints require reduced funding, the costs of strategic objectives are identified so that proper decisions can be made. WASTEWATER PROJECTS – The primary focus of MSD’s mission is the execution of the Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP). The long-term goals of the CIRP are to protect the health and safety of our St. Louis community through the renewal and improvement of MSD’s existing wastewater collection and treatment capabilities. Each year moves us closer to our goals for this important program. In FY 2016, MSD plans 109 new or continuing wastewater projects, located throughout MSD’s service area, totaling $220 million. These projects are funded primarily from the Sanitary Replacement Fund, and represent $24.7 million in continued projects and $195.3 million in new projects. STORMWATER – The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has issued a Phase II Stormwater permit to MSD, St. Louis County, and 58 county municipalities. Under the provisions of this permit, MSD is the St. Louis Coordinating Authority for our separate municipal stormwater sewer system. St. Louis County and the municipalities are co-permittees. Per the Phase II Storm Water Management Plan, MSD has again committed significant resources to this important effort. Not only does this work help us meet MSD’s legal obligations as a stormwater permit holder and as the St. Louis Coordinating Authority, but it significantly reduces the overall compliance burden incurred by our co-permittees. Such an 1
approach allows for a comprehensive and meaningful direction to our community’s Phase II Stormwater efforts. In FY 2016, MSD tentatively plans 31 stormwater projects, including continuing projects from FY 2015, totaling $7.3 million. RATE COMMISSION – On February 26, 2015 MSD staff presented a proposal to our Rate Commission recommending a rate increase for wastewater and a change in how stormwater is funded. Composed of 15 member organizations representing a broad cross-section of MSD’s customers and the community it serves, the Rate Commission is designed to provide public input into how rates are set. PROJECT CLEAR – In 2007, the State of Missouri and the United States Environmental Protection Agency filed a lawsuit against MSD regarding overflows. The Missouri Coalition for the Environment later joined the lawsuit as an intervener. Throughout MSD’s service area, there are hundreds of points where a combination of rainwater and wastewater discharges into local waterways from the sewer system during moderate to heavy rainstorms. These sewer overflow points act as relief valves when too much rainwater enters the sewer system, and without them, communities could experience thousands of basement backups and/or extensive street flooding. In April 2012, the United States Federal Court approved an agreement known as a Consent Decree bringing the lawsuit to a close. The agreement calls for $4.7 billion in improvements to the wastewater system over 23 years. The FY 2016 budget continues MSD’s ongoing execution of the Consent Decree. Knowing that robust and simplified communications would be critical to the success of the Consent Decree, MSD launched Project Clear. Project Clear is the name MSD has given to all Consent Decree activities and resulting communications with stakeholders. Therefore, Project Clear is MSD’s $4.7 billion, 23-year initiative to plan, design, and build system-wide improvements to address water quality and alleviate many wastewater concerns in the St. Louis region. Project Clear will focus on system-wide improvements across the St. Louis area to get the rain out, repair and maintain, and build system improvements. Projects range in scale from massive underground tunnels to carry the volume of stormwater needed in a growing region with more paved surfaces, to the disconnection of residential downspouts from the sanitary sewer line, and rainscaping improvements to manage stormwater as close as possible to where it falls. RAINSCAPING/ GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE – As part of Project Clear, $100 million will be allocated to implement a rainscaping (green infrastructure) program that includes a five-year, $3 million pilot program meant to help understand the regulatory, logistical, financial, and educational challenges that will need to be managed as green infrastructure is utilized to address sewer overflows. The program includes an agreement between MSD and the City of St. Louis’ Land Reutilization Authority (LRA) for the use of LRA owned property. The EPA has also approved to date more than $18 million in additional funding for Early Action projects and the Small Grants Rainscaping Program. DIVERSITY – MSD has had a well-recognized diversity program in place for several years, marked by its success in helping build minority and women owned businesses in our St. Louis community. Minority/Women Business Enterprise (MWBE) firms have had extensive participation in MSD's Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP). In FY 2014, MWBE participation in construction projects was 21.19%, MWBE participation in professional services projects was 45.70%, and MWBE participation in other capital vendor services was 45%. As evidenced by the increase of these numbers, MWBE participation in the CIRP is an important part of our diversity efforts. In addition, MWBE participation in general purchasing transactions was 18.26%. These 2
expenditures resulted in a cumulative MWBE utilization percentage of 32.54%. Affirmative Action Program (AAP) – An AAP is an internal program implemented to establish guidelines for recruiting and selection processes to promote and maintain a fair and equal workforce within MSD. In November, 2014 an extensive review of the program was conducted to exam the existing hiring processes and to determine if adjustments need to be made to prevent potential discrimination or adverse impact against women and minorities. As MSD continues the important work we are doing to protect our environment, we will continue our efforts to ensure MSD staff and our service providers are reflective of the diverse community we serve. The signed Community Benefits Agreement (CBA), a formal agreement between MSD and community organizations that establishes a framework for addressing issues in workforce training, business development, and other areas that often act as obstacles in developing a diverse labor pool and contracting community. BUDGET SUMMARY – As the Executive Director of MSD, I affirm that rates and charges as currently implemented will generate sufficient revenues to meet all expenditures as proposed in the FY 2016 budget, providing adequate operating liquidity as directed in MSD's Debt Management Policy. Furthermore, current rates and charges are adequate to ensure MSD’s compliance with all obligations as provided in the Master Bond Ordinance, adopted by the Trustees on April 22, 2004. The proposed FY 2016 operating budget includes $183.5 million for day-to-day operations, reflecting a $718 thousand or 0.4% increase over the FY 2015 budget. The total District budget for FY 2016 is $582.8 million. Proposed expenditures for the FY 2016 are summarized as follows: Operating $209.8 million CIRP 299.5 million Debt Service 73.5 million TOTAL EXPENSE BUDGET $582.8 million Versus costs presented to and approved by the Rate Commission, the Operations budget for FY 2013 through FY 2016 is projected to be 1.7% less than originally planned; the CIRP budget FY 2013 through FY 2016 is projected to be 4.8% less than originally planned. In FY 2016, we pledge to continue to scrutinize our business practices, deliver sound fiscal management, and be fully accountable to the public for the ways in which we spend their money. We will continue to improve our customer service levels and our efforts to inform the community of our operations and needs. We will persist in addressing the health, safety, and environmental needs of our St. Louis community. In short, we will work to prepare MSD, its customers, and our community for the challenges of the future. Sincerely, Brian Hoelscher, Executive Director, P.E. 3

BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District's budget & financial policies set forth the basic framework for the District’s overall management of operations taking into account changing circumstances and conditions. These policies assist the decision making process of the Board and provide guidelines for evaluating both current activities and proposals for future programs. Balanced Budget Policy Section 7.130 of the District’s Charter requires a balanced budget be submitted to The Board for approval. In no event shall the total amount of proposed expenditures for the budget year from any fund exceed the estimated revenues to be actually received plus any unencumbered balance or less any deficit estimated for the beginning of the budget year. The Annual Budget must be balanced. All funds, Department operations and services, supported by the financial resources of the District, must function within the limits of these resources identified or available specifically to them. A balance must be struck between revenues and expenditures so that the public can realize the benefits of a strong and stable utility. By law, budgets cannot exceed available resources, defined as revenues generated in the current period added to balances carried forward from prior years. Pursuant to the Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District Charter, Section 7.130, not later than the fifteenth day of March in each year, the Executive Director will submit to The Board a budget for the ensuing fiscal year, an explanatory budget message, and a general appropriation ordinance conforming with such budget. The budget shall provide a financial plan for the budget year for all District and subdistrict funds. Operating Budget Policies Historical levels of funding and expenditures shall be included in the budget to provide comparisons. Financial forecasting of future requirements shall be included to provide estimates of future financial and operating conditions. Whenever approved by The Board, the Executive Director may transfer any unencumbered appropriation balances or portions from one classification of expenditure to another. Per Section 7.160 of the Charter, at any time during the budget year, upon recommendation of the Executive Director, The Board may, by ordinance, make supplementary appropriations if (1) the Executive Director estimates that such appropriations will not result in a deficit at the end of the budget, or (2) The Board shall adopt an ordinance or ordinances consistent with the requirements in Section 7.140 providing additional revenues and the Executive Director estimates that the amount to be actually received there from during the budget year will equal or exceed the amount of such supplementary appropriations. 6
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Operating Budget Policies (continued) The District will maintain a budgetary control system to ensure adherence to the budget and will prepare regular reports comparing actual revenues and expenditures to budgeted amounts. Basis of Budgeting The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District is legally required to prepare its annual budget utilizing the modified accrual method of accounting. Modified accrual accounting is the process of formally recording encumbrances in the ledger as reductions to the budgetary accounts to ensure that total actual expenditures plus related commitments do not exceed appropriations. The funds and accounts of the District are maintained on the modified accrual method to demonstrate compliance with finance related legal and contractual provisions. Revenues are recognized when they are obligated to the District (for example, Wastewater User Charges are recognized as revenue when bills are produced). Appropriations lapse at year-end only to the extent of the unencumbered balances. Open encumbrances at year end are reviewed and closed, if not associated with a specific contract, service or vendor. Revenue Policies The District will seek to maintain a diversified and stable revenue system to minimize short-run fluctuations in any one revenue source. The District will follow an aggressive policy of collecting revenues. The District will establish wastewater user charges and stormwater user charges, fees and tax rates at a level related to the full cost (operating, direct, indirect and capital) of providing the service. Voter approval is required to implement tax rate increases. The District will review wastewater fees and stormwater user charges, and fees annually to determine if the revenues support the cost of the service. Rate increases to generate needed revenues are required, per Charter Section 7.040, to be submitted to the District’s Rate Commission for review and recommendation to The Board. The major revenue sources of the District include Wastewater User Charges, Stormwater User Charges, Taxes, Revenue Bonds, Grant Income, Investment Income and Connection Fees. 7
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Investment Policies The District will maximize the return on all cash available for investment without sacrifice of safety or necessary liquidity. The Secretary-Treasurer will develop and maintain a comprehensive, well-documented investment reporting system. This system will provide The Board with appropriate investment performance information. Debt Policies The Board shall authorize and approve all debt issued for the purpose of financing portions of the District’s Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP) as well as debt that may be issued for the purpose of refunding any outstanding District debt. The District will confine long-term borrowing to finance authorized capital improvement projects or to refund, on a current or advanced basis, outstanding debt obligations. The District may issue long-term debt (general obligation or revenue bonds) where it is deemed that capital improvements should not be financed from current revenues. Long-term borrowing will not be used to finance current operations or normal maintenance. Long-term debt will be self-supporting and structured such that the weighted average maturity of the debt does not exceed the expected useful life of the capital project. The District may issue (1) general obligation bonds to finance capital improvement projects that result in community-wide benefits (2) revenue bonds to finance capital improvement projects serviced from the net revenues from a particular enterprise, such as sewer service. Issuance of general obligation bonds requires 57% approval of those voting at primary and general elections and a 67% approval at other elections. Issuance of revenue bonds requires simple majority approval of those voting. No general obligation bonds shall be issued in an amount, which together with existing indebtedness of the District or a subdistrict exceeds in the aggregate 5% of the value of all taxable tangible property in the District and its subdistricts. Any general obligation bonds issued under the District charter shall mature over a period not exceeding 20 years from the date contracted. For the purpose of refunding, extending, or unifying the whole or any part of its valid bonded indebtedness, the District may issue refunding bonds not exceeding the principal amount of the outstanding indebtedness to be refunded and the accrued interest to the date of such refunding bonds. 8
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Debt Policies (continued) Short-term borrowing may be utilized as authorized by District Charter, Section 3.020(13), for the temporary funding of capital projects or for operational cash flow deficits subject to the following policies: District may issue short-term debt when there is a defined and adequate repayment source. Lines of Credit may be considered as an alternative to other short-term borrowing options if it is determined to be more cost-effective. Other short-term debt, including commercial paper notes, may be used when it provides an interest rate advantage or as interim financing until market conditions are more favorable for long-term debt issuance. Per Charter Section 3.020, the District may use short-term debt to provide for the borrowing of money in anticipation of the collection of taxes and revenues for the fiscal year. The amount of such loans shall at no time exceed 90% of the estimated collectible taxes and revenues for the year yet uncollected. Reserve Policies The operating reserve is a balance maintained in the General Fund, Construction Funds and Special Funds combined to accommodate fluctuations in annual revenues and expenditures. The District currently maintains a minimum fund balance of 60 days or 16.4% of the next year’s annual operating expenditures for working capital. The District will maintain a Stormwater Emergency Fund with a minimum balance of $250,000 and a Wastewater Emergency Fund with a minimum balance of $500,000. The District will maintain a Wastewater Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Fund with a minimum balance of $1 million dollars. The District will maintain a General Insurance Fund with a minimum balance of $500,000 dollars. Funds will be reserved to comply with the terms and conditions of the debt instruments used to finance capital improvement projects. Property taxes levied by the District and other revenue received for construction, operations and maintenance in particular taxing subdistricts will be reserved for that use. 9
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Capital Improvement and Replacement Policies The District shall prepare a long-term plan for wastewater infrastructure projects to relieve backup complaints and/or for the correction of identified sanitary sewer capacity inadequacies and deficiencies and/or for the correction of bypasses and overflows. This plan shall include stormwater projects to prevent flooding and erosion threatening homes and property. This plan shall be used to develop a five year CIRP and make all capital improvements accordingly. This five year plan shall be updated annually. The Board adopts the CIRP as a planning document, but does not appropriate the identified multi-year expenditures. These expenditures are legally authorized during the year at the time a fixed contract is awarded. The District will maintain its physical assets at a level adequate to protect the District's capital investment and to minimize future maintenance and replacement costs. Financial and Accounting Policies An independent audit shall be made of all accounts of the District at least annually by a certified public accounting firm that shall be engaged by The Board. Monthly financial reports will be submitted to The Board and District Staff. District financial information will be available through monthly financial statements, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and Annual Budget. The District will produce annual financial reports in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as outlined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). 10
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Basis of Accounting The CAFR shows the status of the District’s finances on the basis of GAAP. In most cases, this conforms to the way the District prepares its budget. Exceptions are as follows: 1. Principal payments on long-term debt within the Enterprise Funds are applied to the outstanding liability on a GAAP basis, as opposed to being expended on a budget basis. 2. Capital Outlay within the Enterprise Funds are recorded as assets on a GAAP basis and expended on a budget basis. 3. Depreciation expense is recorded on a GAAP basis only. Financial Structure The District’s financial structure is organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity with fund specific balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balances, revenues and expenditures. Governmental resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. Governmental funds are those through which most governmental functions are financed. The acquisition, use, and balances of the District’s expendable financial resources and the related liabilities are accounted for through governmental funds. The measurement focus is on the determination of changes in financial position rather than upon net income. The following fund types are used by the District: General Fund The General Fund is the general operating fund of the District. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The General Fund consists of eleven operating departments: 1. Board of Trustees 2. Rate Commission 3. Civil Service Commission 4. Secretary-Treasurer 5. Executive Director 6. General Counsel 7. Human Resources 8. Finance 9. Information Systems 10. Engineering 11. Operations 11
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Revenue Funds The Revenue Funds account for all wastewater and stormwater user charges billed to customers. User Charge proceeds are recorded in the Revenue Funds and allocated to the various other funds to cover operation and maintenance costs and capital improvement expenditures. Operation, Maintenance and Construction Improvement Funds (OMCI) These funds account for the proceeds from tax levies in the various subdistricts. These are primarily stormwater dedicated subdistrict assessments which fund projects, stormwater operations and maintenance specific to each subdistrict’s geographic area. There are currently 20 subdistricts either collecting, using or holding tax revenue balances. Construction Funds The Construction Funds are established to receive and disburse proceeds from revenue sources and restricted for construction of improvements to sewerage and drainage collection systems and treatment facilities. The District has two construction funds that support the majority of the CIRP: 1) the Sanitary Replacement Fund and, 2) the Stormwater Replacement Fund. Use of these funds is dedicated to sanitary and stormwater projects, respectively. Debt Service Funds The Debt Service Funds are established for bond issues sold by the District. These funds provide for the accounting of receipt and disbursement of monies designated for payment of principal and interest and redemption of outstanding bond issues. A distinct fund is established for each of the District’s bond issues. Special Funds The Special Funds are established to: 1) account for and report financial resources related to the proceeds of specific revenue sources designated for specific purposes, or 2) account for and report financial resources related to funds required to maintain a minimum balance. The District’s current Special Funds consist of the following: 1. Improvement Fund – to account for the cost of any improvements and special tax bills issued for any improvement. 2. Water Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Fund – to account for customer water backup insurance claims resulting from over charged lines or blocked mains. 3. General Insurance Fund – to be used to pay the cost of workers’ compensation claims, property insurance, general liability, auto liability, flood insurance and all expenses (i.e. premiums, claims, claim expenses, claim recoveries and claim accruals) related to these coverages. 4. Two Emergency Funds – to account for monies needed to address Wastewater and Stormwater emergencies. Such emergencies require immediate District response. Examples are sewer repairs and replacements to immediately address severe disruption in the operations and maintenance of the District, weather related disruption of District operations, and other disruptions of District services caused by dramatic unforeseen events. 12

Strategic Business and Operating Plan
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2016 Strategic Business and Operating Plan (SBOP) is a business-focused blueprint for serving our
ratepayers now and into the future. It is a plan that puts the ratepayers and the St. Louis community first. The SBOP’s
goals are clear:
• Deliver consistent, high quality customer service;
• Comply with all legal and regulatory requirements and schedules;
• Minimize customer rate increases; and
• Be accountable to the St. Louis community.
These goals build on the public input and feedback that the District has received since the first SBOP was introduced in
2001. While the FY 2016 goals may appear similar to the original set of goals, the underlying refinements and changes in
these goals are significant. The FY 2016 SBOP is easily understood, the goals and resulting strategies are actionable, and
the impact of the strategies is measurable. Additionally, the FY 2016 SBOP continues a philosophy that intimately links
budgetary expenditures and strategic goals. Under this philosophy, the goals and strategies of the SBOP drive budgetary
expenditures and succinctly support the SBOP’s success. Further, the budgetary expenditures for the SBOP are business
focused and ultimately serve the ratepayer.
To achieve these goals, the FY 2016 SBOP proposes six business-focused strategies:
Strategy 1: Educate and partner with stakeholders to build support.
Essential to our success is an active dialog with stakeholders to improve mutual understanding of the needs of the District
and its stakeholders. Education will focus on the District’s goals, needs and initiatives. When possible, we will partner
with stakeholders to achieve win-win solutions on common issues. Partnering will take many forms, including – but not
restricted to – discussions with various stakeholder groups; District organized focus groups; employee participation in
civic organizations; and regulatory advisory committees.
15
Strategy 2: Manage the District’s costs and revenues to optimize financial impacts.
The District continues to face increasing fiscal demands related to regulatory issues affecting its collection and treatment
systems. In response to these demands, the District is continuing its important work to protect local waterways, ensure
compliance with State and Federal environmental regulations, and provide effective, efficient wastewater and stormwater
services to the St. Louis community. This work continues in the form of Project Clear, which includes the District’s multi-
decade, multi-billion dollar Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP). It is essential the District diligently
manage costs and minimize rate increases. Sound financial management, long-term planning, internal audit practices, and
leveraging of data are critical components of this strategy.
Strategy 3: Integrate and improve the District’s business processes.
Not accepting the status quo as justification for current and future business practices, and continually reviewing best
practices amongst contemporaries are cultural imperatives for continual improvement. The goal of this initiative focuses
on identifying and implementing process improvements that will enable the District to meet or exceed established
performance, production and customer satisfaction goals.
Strategy 4: Promote appropriate standards through proactive regulatory and legislative involvement.
The most significant factors affecting current and future rate increases are federal and state regulations and legislation. It
is often the case that implementation of multiple regulations compete for the same, scarce funding resources. As
authorities in wastewater and stormwater management, it is essential that we assist in the creation of regulations that will
efficiently achieve desired results. This extends to both regulations that govern environmental protection and regulations
that are not directly linked to those duties, but are drivers for other facets of the District’s business functions. This strategy
focuses on our involvement in the formation of regulations and legislation that impact all areas of the District's
operations. It is crucial that regulations and legislation be based on sound technical information and governance
frameworks. The District and others in the regulated community are in the best position to provide such information.
New regulations and legislation – particularly those pertaining to environmental protection – should be practical and able
to be implemented in a like manner.
16
Strategy 5: Address customer and regulatory needs through a comprehensive infrastructure management program.
Maintaining customer service expectations and meeting regulatory requirements are paramount concerns within the
District’s mission. However, these must be balanced against the need to cost effectively maintain the District’s wastewater
and stormwater assets. This can only be achieved through investigation, planning, maintenance and capital replacement
programs. A model infrastructure management program effectively integrates these processes while considering risk and
required service levels. The resulting program minimizes the life-cycle costs of infrastructure assets at an acceptable level
of risk, while continually delivering established levels of service.
Strategy 6: Create a learning and business oriented culture based on competency and accountability.
The District’s success is dependent upon employees having appropriate competencies and skills within a culture of
accountability - a culture that is rooted in ethical integrity and seeks a balance between effectiveness, efficiency and cost
management. Improving employee and organizational performance at all levels is the core of this strategy. Special
emphasis will be placed on leadership development, management/supervisory skill training, open communications,
general operational and administrative needs, and building awareness of individual employees’ role in the success of the
overall organization.
FISCAL YEAR 2016 OBJECTIVES
The District has developed a set of specific objectives that support these strategies and, thus, achieve the goals of the
Strategic Business and Operating Plan. Objectives are segmented into “Year 1”, “Year 2” and “Years 3-5” categories.
Combined, these objectives make up the tactical blueprint that we will engage in during FY 2016 and beyond, as we strive
to protect the public’s health, safety and water environment by responsibly providing wastewater and stormwater
management.
17
BUDGET PROCESS FY16 The District’s Strategic Business and Operating Plan (SBOP) is the key to the development of the Annual Budget. The SBOP process begins in July when all Departments are given the opportunity to reassess goals, strategies and objectives and the means for accomplishing them. The budget serves as the tool to communicate the District’s long-term plans and policies to the public, details the costs of services and programs and becomes the plan to accomplish the District’s goals and objectives during the next fiscal year. The budget process begins in early October with the projection of revenues (wastewater and stormwater user charges, investment & other income). District-wide imperatives and budgetary parameters are established by Executive Management and The Board of Trustees (“The Board”). The imperatives for this fiscal year include: IMPERATIVES FOR FY16 STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLAN STRATEGY OBJECTIVE District wastewater expenses are to be budgeted within the total 4-year parameter of the November 2011 Rate Commission Report. 2 3 Create stormwater budget scenario in line with Supreme Court decision: a. Assume zero impervious based stormwater revenue, stormwater program solely based on taxes and flat rate charge; or b. Assume stormwater service level and costs as previously discussed including all costs for personnel; c. Continue long range spend down of OMCI’s through chargeable operational expenses and Capital Program. 5 1 Execution of CIRP within the total four year parameter of the November 2011 Rate Commission Report. 2 3 Fund Information Technology long range infrastructure plan. 3 5 Meet all requirements and deadlines of the Consent Decree. 3 and 4 1 and 2 Meet requirements of Disparity Study, Community Benefits Agreement and overall Diversity Program. 1 3 Budget anticipated costs to implement Affirmative Action Plan. 3 3 Budget appropriate costs associated with work on a document management system for the District. 3 5 Department Directors and Managers begin budget development by providing an updated expenditure forecast for the remainder of FY15. A two step, zero-based budgeting method is used to develop the FY16 budget. This method requires written justification as to need and purpose for all expenditures. The first step is the preparation of a base budget that reflects the ongoing day-to-day operations of each Department. The second step is the preparation of an incremental budget, which reflects costs associated with initiatives outlined in the SBOP. Throughout the budget development process, departmental staff is required to evaluate programs and identify possible changes in services and staff positions. The Department Directors forward their proposed base budgets to the Director of Finance for analysis. Cost benefit business cases to support incremental budgets are submitted to the Executive Director for review. The base budgets and requests for incremental funding are then compiled and further analyzed to ensure the preliminary budget meets the District’s needs, priorities, goals and objectives without exceeding forecasted resources. Any unresolved issues are presented to the Executive Director for a final decision. The recommended budget reductions and adjustments are then incorporated. Per Charter a preliminary budget is delivered to the Board of Trustees (“The Board”) for review by March 15th. A series of budget presentations are given to The Board’s Finance Committee to allow for more in-depth review by the Trustees. 18
BUDGET PROCESS FY16-continued The Board’s recommended budget adjustments are then incorporated into a final budget document. A proposed financial plan and an Executive Summary of the budget are communicated to the general public in the form of a public hearing. The public hearing is advertised in the newspapers at least three weeks before the scheduled hearing in order to allow sufficient time for the public to review and ask questions. The Board is then required to adopt the budget, tax and rate ordinances (if applicable) consistent with the District’s Charter and state law. The District’s fiscal year begins on July 1st. Departments are accountable for budgetary control throughout the fiscal year. Expenditure patterns are examined and compared to budget plans with variances reported. Responses to significant variances are required quarterly from each Department and reviewed by the Director of Finance. Budget status is reviewed with senior staff monthly, and is reported quarterly to The Board at its monthly Finance Committee meeting. The Director of Finance reviews the District’s monthly financial statements and budget variance report ensuring the District’s actual revenue is sufficient to support budgeted expenditures. Forecasted expenses are also compared to budget. The District’s operating budget is adopted at the Department level as detailed in the District’s Budget Ordinance. Any transfers between Funds require Board approval. Budget transfers are made on an as-needed basis. Expenditures for the Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (“CIRP”) are presented on an appropriated basis as opposed to a cash flow basis. The District’s accounting procedures require an adequate budget to pay for planned Ordinances in the period in which an Ordinance is appropriated. All outstanding CIRP encumbrances remain open until a project is completed. A budget is developed for both revenues and expenses: 1. Revenue expectations are developed from trend analysis, incorporating upcoming rate increases and significant economic and policy factors. FY16 Total Revenue: (shown in million $) Wastewater User Charges: $311.1 Stormwater User Charges: 1.4 Revenue Bonds: 200.0 Taxes: 24.6 Investment and Other Income: 22.3 Use of Fund Balances: 23.4 TOTAL DISTRICT REVENUE: $582.8 2. Operating Expenses are developed using a zero based budgeting method with written justification for all expenditures. The CIRP is developed by the District’s Engineering Department based on the revenues forecasted for the coming year. Projects prioritized for the coming year are outlined in a supplemental report in conjunction with the Operating Budget. Debt service for the District’s existing and forecasted use of bonds is developed by the District’s Secretary-Treasurer’s Department and incorporated into the Operating Budget.

FY16 SOURCES OF FUNDING USER CHARGES The District has two types of user charges, a wastewater user charge and a stormwater user charge. All user charge revenue is recorded in the associated Revenue Fund. A portion of the revenue is transferred to the General Fund to cover daily operating, maintenance and replacement costs; a portion is allocated to the Water Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Fund to provide assistance to homeowners with damages resulting from blocked main and basement backups, another portion is transferred to the Workers’ Compensation Fund to cover claim and related expenses resulting from injuries to District employees while on the job, and a portion is allocated to the Debt Service Funds to retire outstanding bonds issued for capital improvements. The remainder of the revenue is transferred to the Capital Improvement and Replacement Funds for construction projects and emergencies. A chart detailing the flow of funds is also included in the preceding pages of the Budget Summary section. Wastewater: Residential customers with metered water service will pay a billing and collection charge, a system availability charge and a volume charge based on the most recent winter quarter water usage. Unmetered customers will pay the same charges with the exception of a volume charge. Unmetered volume is based on housing attributes such as the number of rooms and plumbing fixtures. Non-residential customers will pay the same charges plus an additional compliance charge. Some non-residential customers will pay extra strength surcharges for the treatment of wastewater containing suspended solids, biochemical oxygen demand or chemical oxygen demand exceeding normal wastewater strengths. User Charges in the Wastewater Revenue Fund for FY16 is estimated at $313.1 million. Stormwater: Residential and commercial customers will pay a flat per month stormwater service charge that appears on each customer’s bill. The estimated stormwater revenue for FY16 is $1.4 million. Other User Charges: Other User Charge revenue such as Late Fees, Lien Interest, Refunds and Account Adjustments are estimated to be ($1.9 million). This amount is net of a provision to recognize delinquent customer bills. TOTAL REVENUE: The District’s total FY16 User Charge revenue is estimated to be $312.5 million. 22
FY16 SOURCES OF FUNDING-continued The District also provides a low income assistance program. Those customers who are eligible will receive a low income credit equal to 50% of their sewer service charge bill. A composite schedule of the budgeted Wastewater and Stormwater user charge revenue by customer class can be found in the pages of the Revenue Funds Section. More detailed schedules can be found in the Revenue Funds section. REVENUE BONDS The District plans to issue approximately $200.0 million in bonds in FY16 to be used for capital improvement projects. Prior to a November 2000 Charter change, the District was unable to issue revenue bonds as a source of funding its Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (“CIRP”). Almost all of the District’s capital expenditures were funded from annual cash flow, known as Pay-As-You-Go (PAYGO) funding. Continuation of a PAYGO approach as the District’s sole funding option would have required significant rate increases to generate the necessary annual capital funding. PAYGO is the lowest cost funding source due to it’s avoidance of the financing and interest costs associated with long term debt. The primary negatives associated with PAYGO funding include: 1) the short-term impact on customer rates, and 2) the mismatch between the cost and benefit of the District’s capital infrastructure to the users. In the case of capital projects that have a long life expectancy, PAYGO funding causes today’s customers to pay for an asset that will be used by tomorrow’s customers for many years. Financing a portion of the capital program with bonds is an excellent way to distribute the cost of long-term assets to the future customers who will benefit from the use of the assets and lessen the impact of short-term rate increases. It is typically considered good public policy to allocate a portion of the cost of long-term assets to future users by the use of debt. At the same time, prudent fiscal policy would not allow 100% debt financing. The goal is to strike the correct balance between the distribution of the cost of long-term assets to the users that benefit from them and maintaining healthy financial ratios. AD VALOREM TAXES During FY16 all taxpayers within the District’s boundaries will be assessed a $0.02 (two cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay primarily for stormwater services required by State and Federal regulations. All taxpayers within the District’s original boundaries will also be assessed a $0.07 (seven cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay for the District’s stormwater operation and maintenance costs. This tax revenue of approximately $15.6 million is recorded in the General Fund of the District. 23
FY16 SOURCES OF FUNDING-continued Property tax rates will also be assessed for twelve (12) taxing subdistricts within the District’s boundaries. All subdistrict taxes collected within these boundaries are held in the Operation, Maintenance and Construction Improvement (OMCI) fund balances and must be used primarily for stormwater capital improvements and stormwater operating expenses within the specific subdistrict boundaries in which the taxes of an estimated $8.9 million are collected. INVESTMENT INCOME & OTHER FEES Investment Income and Other Fees will fund $22.3 million of the Budget. $17.1 million in Stormwater Interfund Revenue from OMCI funds will purchase services from the General Fund. Investment Income of approximately $1.1 million, based on an investment return of 0.4% is assumed on all beginning fund balances. $985 thousand is expected to be generated from connection fees that are based on a flat rate per connection to the sanitary system. These revenue estimates are based on previous experience, current economic conditions and anticipated new home construction. Rental income is expected to generate $46 thousand. Permit, Plan Review and other engineering fees are projected to be $1.8 million. Miscellaneous Income of approximately $1.1 million is expected, comprised of $930 thousand in refunds of court costs and attorney fees and $155 thousand from multiple other sources including sale of scrap, forfeited deposits and reimbursement of District costs. GRANT INCOME No grant income is anticipated during the 2016 fiscal year. In the past, large Federal grants were available to help defray the cost of major clean water projects. Currently, however, the Federal government has decided to leave the funding of these projects to the local users of the system. The District will continue to aggressively pursue all possible grant opportunities. FUND BALANCES These sources of funding will result in a fund balance decrease of $23.4 million during FY16. 24

FUNDS
These funds were established to account for proceeds from tax levies in the various subdistricts
and grants in aid of construction. Expenditures are primarily for stormwater sewer
improvements and stormwater maintenance and operation.
Taxes collected in the various subdistricts must be spent within the subdistrict. The levied tax
rates range from $.05 to $.10 per $100 of assessed property valuation. In order to finance large
stormwater and infrastructure projects, taxes are held in fund balance until there is sufficient
tax revenue accumulated to cover the costs of these projects.

Section Two. Establishment of Wastewater User Charges. There are hereby ratified, confirmed and established for
services provided by the District to any Property Served by the Wastewater System, the Wastewater User Charges as set forth in
Appendix I. All such Wastewater User Charges shall be in addition to any applicable Capital Charges.
The District’s Wastewater User Charges must comply with the following mandates (the "Environmental Mandates"):
(i) to have an approved Wastewater User Charge as required by the Federal Clean Water Act, the Missouri Clean Water Law and its
Grant Agreements, and (ii) to provide necessary funds to operate, maintain and replace its Wastewater System so as to provide
adequate Service to District residents. The District finds that it is necessary and in the public interest to implement the schedule of
Wastewater User Charges as herein provided in order to protect the public health, safety and welfare and to insure the District's
continued compliance with the Environmental Mandates.
Section Three. Wastewater User Charges.
(A) Metered Property.
(1) Each metered property shall be charged a Base Charge and a Volume Charge as set forth in Appendix I.
The Volume Charge shall be calculated separately for each Property, using the most current determination of Contributed Wastewater
Volume.
(2) Extra Strength Surcharges. Extra Strength Surcharges for the treatment of wastes containing Suspended
Solids, Biochemical Oxygen Demand or Chemical Oxygen Demand exceeding Normal Wastewater strengths are hereby established
and shall be billed to and collected from Non-residential Property Served by the Wastewater System at the rates for each User
Account set forth in Appendix I, and shall be collected in addition to the charges imposed by Subsections (1) and (3) hereof.
(a) A User shall be subject to Extra Strength Surcharges in any month if that User's water usage in
such month equals or exceeds eight thousand cubic feet.
(b) Each User subject to Extra Strength Surcharges shall submit to the District on forms supplied by the
District pursuant to the Sewer Use Ordinance, a certified statement setting forth the strength and volume of Wastewater discharged by
the User into the Wastewater System or into any sewer connected thereto. The data set forth in such statement shall be obtained from
171
samples collected in accordance with accepted procedures from the manhole or adequate place as described in the Sewer Use
Ordinance at a time period representative of normal operational conditions and analyzed utilizing Standard Test Procedures.
(c) Analytical data reported by the User discharging such Wastewater will be considered current for
each subsequent billing period until such data is reported inaccurate and replaced by updated certified data by said User. The results of
routine scheduled sampling and analyses by the District may be used in lieu of data reported by said User if such data is found to be
not current or in error.
(d) An Extra Strength Surcharge shall be collected from any User subject to Extra Strength Surcharges
as provided for herein for the discharge into the Wastewater System of Suspended Solids (SS) which average concentration exceeds
300 milligrams per liter or Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) which average concentration exceeds 300 milligrams per liter, with
said Extra Strength Surcharge ("ESS") calculated for each billing period according to the following formula, to wit:
0.00624 x V x [(SS-300) x RSS + (BOD-300) x RBOD]
ESS = 2000
(e) If the BOD/COD ratio of a User's Wastewater is equal to or less than 0.35 the BOD measurement
may not be considered representative of the User's actual Wastewater strength. The District may substitute Chemical Oxygen Demand
(COD) which average concentration exceeds 600 milligrams per liter, with said Extra Strength Surcharge ("ESS") calculated for each
billing period according to the following formula, to wit:
0.00624 x V x [(SS-300) x RSS + (COD-600) x RCOD]
ESS = 2000
172
In the above formulas the following terms shall mean:
ESS = Extra Strength Surcharges.
300 = Maximum concentration of total BOD in Normal Wastewater in milligrams per liter.
300 = Maximum concentration of total Suspended Solids in Normal Wastewater in milligrams per liter.
600 = Maximum concentration of total COD in Normal Wastewater in milligrams per liter.
0.00624 = Conversion factor for milligrams per liter to pounds per hundred cubic feet.
V = Volume of water usage or Wastewater discharged expressed in hundred cubic feet.
RSS = Rate for SS in dollars per ton.
RBOD = Rate for BOD in dollars per ton.
RCOD = Rate for COD in dollars per ton.
2,000 = The number of pounds per ton.
(f) All Extra Strength Surcharges shall be calculated separately for each Property using the
Wastewater flow proportioned average strength concentration for each strength parameter and the most current determination of
Contributed Wastewater Volume.
(3) Non-residential Property Compliance Charge. A Compliance Charge shall be collected from all Non-
residential Property Served by the Wastewater System at the rate for each User Account as set forth in Appendix I and shall be
collected in addition to the charges imposed by Subsections (1) and (2) hereof.
(4) Registration of Unmetered Water Supply. In the event Property is supplied either in whole or in part
with water from wells or any source other than a public water supplier, then such wells or other source of supply shall be registered
with the Director of Finance of the District. If such supply serves Metered Property and is not measured by a water meter, or is
173
measured by a water meter not acceptable to the District, then in such case, the User, at his own expense shall install and maintain an
Approved Meter connected to such water supply. Whenever a new supplier or source of water other than a public water supplier shall
be put into use by Metered Property, such source of water shall be registered with the Director of Finance of the District within thirty
days.
(5) Metered Water Not Entering the Wastewater System. Where it can be shown to the satisfaction of the
District that a portion of the water as measured by an Approved Meter does not enter the Wastewater System, then the District is
hereby authorized to determine, in such manner and by such method as may be practicable, the percentage of the water measured by
the Approved Meter which enters the Wastewater System. In such case, Wastewater User Charges shall be based upon the percentage
of the metered water entering the Wastewater System. Additional Approved Meters may be required or permitted at the User's expense
in such manner as to measure the quantity of Contributed Wastewater Volume entering the Wastewater System from the Property of
such User. Applications requesting consideration for a reduction in the Wastewater Service Charge, because of water not entering the
Wastewater System, shall be made to the Director of Finance of the District, on forms provided by the District.
(6) Requirement of an Approved Meter for Non-Residential Property. All Non-Residential Property within
the District shall be connected to an Approved Meter. In the event Property within the District is owned by a municipality and is
served by water provided by such municipality and not connected to an Approved Meter, the District shall provide a method for
estimating Wastewater discharge by such Property which is fair and equitable, in lieu of connection to an Approved Meter, and shall
bill such municipality for Wastewater User Charges as provided for Metered Property pursuant to this Ordinance based on such
estimated Wastewater usage.
(B) Unmetered Residential Property.
(1) Each unmetered residential property shall be charged a Base Charge and a Room/Fixture Charge as set
forth in Appendix I. Such charges shall be calculated separately for each Property using the most current available data regarding the
number of rooms and plumbing fixtures in such Property. The Director of Finance shall determine the number of rooms and plumbing
fixtures in such Property from the records of the City of St. Louis Water Division or other public water suppliers, from the records of
174
the Office of Assessor of the City of St. Louis or St. Louis County, or from on site inspection. A User of Unmetered Residential
Property who considers the determination by the District of the number of rooms and plumbing fixtures for which such User is billed
Wastewater User Charges to be inaccurate or erroneous may appeal such determination as herein provided.
(2) Right of Entry and Inspection. The District shall have the power to enter on any Property for the
purposes of examining the use made of its Wastewater System, the number of rooms and plumbing fixtures in such Property, the
number and kind of plumbing fixtures connected with such Wastewater System, and for the purpose of inspecting or reading the
Approved Meter connected to such Property. When such examination gives reason to believe that the usage of water on such Property
places a burden on the Wastewater System in excess of that for which the User of such Property is being billed then the Wastewater
discharged from such Property shall be measured, at the expense of the User, by a water meter or meters or by a Wastewater flow
meter or meters. If such measurement shows that the flow of Wastewater is excessive, Wastewater User Charges shall be billed and
collected for such measured usage as for Metered Property.
(C) Application of Wastewater User Charge Revenues. All revenues collected from Wastewater User Charges shall
be segregated, credited and deposited in a Wastewater Revenue Fund to be established and maintained by the Director of Finance of
the District, and shall be used solely to pay for the costs of the operation (including billing, administration and overhead), repair,
maintenance, improvement, renewal, replacement and reconstruction of the District's Wastewater System.
Section Four. Wastewater Monitoring Fees. When the Sewer Use Ordinance of the District or regulations of the federal
government or state government require periodic monitoring of Wastewater from Non-residential Property, whether for strength
calculations, for National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System compliance, or for pretreatment program requirements, the User of
such Property monitored shall furnish the District at least one report for each quarterly calendar period from an independent testing
laboratory satisfactory to the District, which report shall set forth the information required by the District on forms supplied by the
District. As an alternative to furnishing the reports herein required, the User of such Property may request the District to collect the
necessary samples and perform the analysis thereof. If the District agrees to so act, the User of such Property shall be billed for and
agree to pay all costs for personnel, material and equipment used to collect and analyze samples from the User's Wastewater as set
175
forth in the schedule of charges in Appendix II hereof. Each User shall be billed based on the number of samples collected and the
number and types of analyses performed during each billing period and billed in accordance with current billing procedures. A User
shall not be billed for more than four (4) such samplings per year for each connection to the Wastewater System. Sampling and
analysis undertaken for purposes other than required periodic monitoring shall not be billed for Wastewater Monitoring Fees under
this section. The District may terminate such collection and analysis at any time and it shall thereafter be the obligation of the User of
such Property to furnish the test information called for above from an independent testing laboratory.
Section Five. Pollutants. Any User which discharges any Pollutants which cause an increase in the cost of managing the
effluent or sludge from the Wastewater System shall pay for such increased costs.
Section Six. All bills for Wastewater User Charges shall be prepared by the District and shall be issued monthly for
services provided in the preceding month.
The issuance of any monthly bill may be delayed by the District for good cause.
On or after May 1, 2004, the Wastewater User Charges shall be billed to the Owner or Owners of the property served
by the Wastewater System. Such Wastewater User Charges shall also constitute a personal obligation of any User of the Wastewater
System regardless of to whom the bill for Wastewater User Charges is sent and shall constitute a charge and a lien against the Property
Served, whether or not a notice of lien has been served.
For the District's convenience, all individual Wastewater User Charges may be combined with any other charges of the
District, and all such charges may be billed together. In the event of a change in Owner or User of Property or termination of Service
to Property during a billing period, application may be made to the Director of Finance of the District for a refund or proration of
Wastewater User Charges for such billing period.
The Owner of Metered Residential Property containing more than one unit shall have the option of being charged on
the basis of Best Equated Period. The Owner may obtain an application for such change from the Director of Finance. Upon receipt of
an Application of Change in billing basis for said Property the change in billing will take effect not sooner than sixty (60) days from
receipt of the application.
176
Once an Owner of Metered Residential Property containing more than one (1) unit has elected to be charged on the
basis of Best Equated Period, that Owner shall not be permitted to again change.
In the event wastewater service is being provided to any parcel of real property and said parcel is being under-billed or
not being billed at all, the District shall have the authority to charge the owner of said parcel retroactively for a period not to exceed
one and one-half (1½) years from the date of discovery.
In the event said parcel is being over-billed by the District, and the current owner of said parcel can verify such over-
billing, then the District shall refund the current owner of the parcel any amount verified to be overpaid by said owner.
The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer District will not collect Wastewater User Charges from the owner of real property
when it is known that said real property is connected to a septic tank. Upon notification from the property owner that certain real
property which is connected to a septic tank is being billed by the District for Wastewater User Charges, upon verification, the District
will refund to the owner any and all of said Wastewater User Charges so collected from said owner.
Section Seven. Charge for Late Payments. On or after July 1, 2009, any Wastewater User charges billed that are not
paid by the due date indicated on any bill rendered shall bear a late payment charge equal to three-fourths of one percent (0.75%) per
month, or nine percent (9%) per annum, of the amount of the bill rendered and is herby imposed for each month or portion thereof that
the charges remain unpaid beyond the due date.
Section Eight. Wastewater User Charges Constitute a Lien. The Wastewater User Charges shall constitute a lien upon
the Property Served on the date a bill is rendered for Wastewater Service, and said lien shall have the same priority as taxes levied for
state and county purposes. The District may cause a notice of lien for non-payment of such charges to be filed in the Office of the
Recorder of Deeds within and for the City of St. Louis or St. Louis County, depending upon where such Property Served is located.
Such notice of lien shall state the Wastewater User Charges due, and shall adequately describe the Property against which such lien is
asserted. A copy of such notice of lien shall be mailed to the Owner of the Property at the last address on file with the District and the
filing of such notice in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds may be deferred as a matter of grace for not more than thirty (30) days
from the mailing date. All Wastewater User Charges that remain unpaid shall bear interest at a rate not to exceed the lower of nine
177
percent (9%) per annum or the maximum legal rate from the time a notice of lien is filed with the appropriate recorder of deeds as
herein prescribed, until such time as the account is brought current.
After such notice of lien is filed of record, the fees of the Recorder for filing and releasing said lien shall also be
payable to the District as a prerequisite to releasing said lien.
Section Nine. Termination of Service for Nonpayment. When any Wastewater User Charge has not been paid and has
been delinquent for a period in excess of three months, the District is authorized to order the water supply to be shut off for the
Property for which the Wastewater User Charge is delinquent or to remove or close any sewer connections, or both, until payment of
the delinquent charge together with the reasonable costs involved in shutting off and turning on the water, or closing and reopening the
sewer connection, as the case may be, have been paid.
When any Wastewater User Charge has not been paid and has been delinquent for more than fifteen days after the due
date, then the District may refuse to issue to the Owner and/or User a permit to connect any other Property owned or controlled by
said Owner and/or User to the Wastewater System or Storm Water System; or may refuse to review any plans submitted by or on
behalf of such Owner and/or User; or issue any permits requested by or on behalf of such Owner and/or User; or refuse to contract for
any purpose with or accept Wastewater or Storm Water from any such Owner and/or User.
Section Ten. Remedies. Whenever any charge on an account is unpaid after ninety days from the date the bill for such
account was rendered, then the amount for all charges, including late fees and attorney fees, accrued and accruing on the account may
be collected by any or all of the three procedures:
(A) by assignment or forwarding for collection to a collection agency or law firm; or
(B) by suit or other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction; or
(C) by enforcement of the lien provided herein.
The District shall have the power to sue any Owner and/or User, jointly and severally, in a civil action to recover
delinquent charges plus the late payment charge and interest on the delinquent bill, plus all costs incurred by the District in connection
with the filing, enforcement and relinquishment of such lien and the prosecution and collection of such charges including court costs,
178
fees for transcript judgments, special process servers, credit reports, video reports, sewer and/or water shutoff costs, other related fees,
and reasonable attorney's fees to be fixed by the court.
Section Eleven. False Information. It shall be unlawful for any Person to furnish any false report or information to the
District which would reduce any charge imposed by the District.
Section Twelve. Violation of Ordinance. Any Person violating Section Eleven of this Ordinance shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $50.00 nor more than $500.00. The
imposition of such penalty shall in no way restrict or deprive the District of its right to pursue any other remedy it may have for the
collection of any delinquent bill for Charges.
Section Thirteen. Wastewater User Charge Review. The Board shall regularly review the Wastewater User needs of the
District and Wastewater User Charges, usually as a part of a Rate Proposal from the Rate Commission, to assure the appropriateness
of the Wastewater User Charges.
(A) Maintain the proportional distribution of operation, maintenance and replacement costs among User classes.
(B) Provide adequate revenues to cover operation, maintenance and replacement costs.
(C) Provide adequate revenues for the payment of debt service on or required by the provisions of any outstanding

(B) that part of Wastewater User Charges attributable to wastewater services.
Section Fifteen. Deposit of Funds. The funds received from the collection of any of the aforesaid charges shall be
deposited daily as received by the Secretary-Treasurer of the District, and shall be deposited in duly designated bank accounts, and
such moneys may be appropriated and used for the purposes of the District as herein provided.
Section Sixteen. Collection Offices. Collection offices may be established at convenient locations throughout the
179
District. The Director of Finance is hereby authorized to enter into contracts with the owners or operators of business establishments
to provide collection services at such locations as are selected and may provide in such contracts for the payment by the District of a
fee to the collecting establishment for rendering such collection services.
Section Seventeen. Appeals. Any Person who considers the Wastewater User Charges billed to such Person pursuant to
the provisions of this Ordinance or any other determination by the District pursuant to the provisions of the Ordinance to be illegal,
inaccurate or erroneous may request a review thereof by the Director of Finance or his designate within thirty (30) days of (i) the bill
to such Person for Wastewater User Charges with respect to such Property, or (ii) written notice to such Person of a determination by
the District which is contested. The determination by the Director of Finance may be appealed by such Person to the Executive
Director, by written notice of appeal filed with the Director of Finance within thirty (30) days of his determination. The determination
by the Executive Director shall be considered a final order of the District.
Section Eighteen. Judicial Review. Any Person or Persons jointly or severally aggrieved by any final order of the
Executive Director of the District may seek judicial review of such decision or pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 12.110
of the District's Plan.

monthly for services provided in the preceding month. The issuance of any monthly bill may be delayed by the District for good
cause. The Stormwater Service Charges shall be billed to the Owner of the Property or to the Person billed by the District for
Stormwater Service Charges for such Property. Such Stormwater Service Charges shall also constitute a personal obligation of both
the Owner and any User of the Property regardless of to whom the bill for Stormwater Service Charges is sent and shall constitute a
charge and a lien against the Property served.
For the District’s convenience, all Stormwater Service Charges may be combined with any other charges of the
District, and all such charges may be billed together. In the event of a change in Owner or User of Property during a billing period,
application may be made to the Director of Finance of the District for a refund or prorating of Stormwater Service Charges for such
billing period.
In the event stormwater services are being provided to any parcel of real property and said parcel is being under-billed
or is not being billed at all, the District shall have the authority to charge the owner of said parcel retroactively for a period not to
exceed one and one-half (1½) years from the date of discovery.
In the event said parcel is being over-billed by the District, and the current owner of said parcel can verify such over-
billing, then the District shall refund the current owner of the parcel any amount verified to be overpaid by said owner.
Section Eleven. Charge for Late Payments. On or after July 1, 2009, any Stormwater Service Charges billed that are

per month, or nine percent (9%) per annum, of the amount of the bill rendered and is herby imposed for each month or portion thereof
190
that the charges remain unpaid beyond the due date.
Section Twelve. Stormwater Service Charges Constitute a Lien. The Stormwater Service Charges shall constitute a
lien upon the Property served on the date a bill is rendered for Stormwater Service, and said lien shall have the same priority as taxes
levied for state and county purposes. The District may cause a notice of lien for non-payment of such charges to be filed in the Office
of the Recorder of Deeds within and for the City of St. Louis or St. Louis County, depending upon where such Property served is
located. Such notice of lien shall state the Stormwater Service Charges due, and shall adequately describe the Property against which
such lien is asserted. A copy of such notice of lien shall be mailed to the Owner of the Property at the last address on file with the
District and the filing of such notice in the Office of the Recorder of Deeds may be deferred as a matter of grace for not more than
thirty (30) days from the mailing date. All Stormwater Service Charges that remain unpaid shall bear interest at a rate not to exceed
the lower of nine percent (9%) per annum or the maximum legal rate from the time a notice of lien is filed with the appropriate
recorder of deeds as herein prescribed, until such time as the account is current.
After such notice of lien is filed of record, the fees of the Recorder for filing and releasing said lien shall also be
payable to the District as a prerequisite to releasing said lien.
Section Thirteen. Termination of Service for Nonpayment. When any Stormwater Service Charge has not been paid
and has been delinquent for a period in excess of three months, the District is authorized to order the water supply to be shut off for
the Property for which the Stormwater Service Charge is delinquent or to remove or close any sewer connections, or both, until
payment of the delinquent charge together with the reasonable costs involved in shutting off and turning on the water, or closing and
reopening the sewer connection, as the case may be, have been paid.
When any Stormwater Service Charge has not been paid and has been delinquent for more than fifteen days after the
due date, then the District may refuse to issue to the Owner and/or User a permit to connect any other Property owned or controlled by
said Owner and/or User to the Wastewater System or Stormwater System; or may refuse to review any plans submitted by or on behalf
of such Owner and/or User; or issue any permits requested by or on behalf of such Owner and/or User; or refuse to act on any
easement vacation request by or on behalf of such Owner and/or User; or refuse to contract for any purpose with or accept Wastewater
or Stormwater from any such Owner and/or User.
Section Fourteen. Remedies. Whenever any charge on an account is unpaid after ninety days from the date the bill for
such account was rendered, then the amount for all charges, including late fees and attorney fees, accrued and accruing on the account
may be collected by any or all of the three procedures:
(A) by assignment or forwarding for collection to a collection agency or law firm; or
(B) by suit or other proceedings in any court of competent jurisdiction; or
(C) by enforcement of the lien provided herein.
The District shall have the power to sue any Owner and/or User, jointly and severally, in a civil action to recover
delinquent charges plus the late payment charge and interest on the delinquent bill, plus all costs incurred by the District in connection
with the filing, enforcement and relinquishment of such lien and the prosecution and collection of such charges including court costs,
191
fees for transcript judgments, special process servers, credit reports, video reports, sewer and/or water shutoff costs, other related fees,
and reasonable attorney's fees to be fixed by the court.

District which would tend to reduce Stormwater Service Charges imposed by the District.
Section Sixteen. Violation of Ordinance. Any Person violating any of the provisions of this Ordinance shall be
deemed guilty of a misdemeanor and upon conviction shall be punished by a fine of not less than $50.00 nor more than $500.00, and
each day's violation shall constitute a separate offense. The imposition of such penalty shall in no way restrict or deprive the District
of its right to pursue any other remedy it may have for the collection of any delinquent bill for Stormwater Service Charges.
Section Seventeen. Stormwater Service Charge Review. The Board shall regularly review the Stormwater Service
needs of the District and Stormwater Service Charges, usually as part of a Rate Proposal from the Rate Commission, to assure the
appropriateness of the Stormwater Service Charges.
Section Eighteen. Notice of Rates. All Owners of Property served by the Stormwater System shall be notified at the
time of a rate increase as to the rate schedule in effect.
Section Nineteen. Application of Revenues. All revenues billed and collected from Stormwater Service Charges shall
be segregated, credited and deposited into a Stormwater Revenue Fund established and maintained by the Director of Finance of the
District, and shall be used solely to pay for the costs of providing Stormwater Service.
Section Twenty. Appeals. Any Person who considers the Stormwater Service Charges billed to such Person pursuant
to the provisions of this Ordinance to be illegal, inaccurate or erroneous may request a review thereof by the Director of Finance or his
designate. The results of any appeal shall be applied starting on the date of receipt of the appeal by the District. The determination of
