FY21 BUDGET
March 12, 2020 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) 2021, 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 2021 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 andschedules;Minimize customer rate increases;Be accountable to the St. Louis communityThe 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. 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 2021 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 2021 operating budget includes $220.7 million for day-to-day operations, reflecting a $4.8 million or 2.2% increase over the FY 2020 budget. The total District budget for FY 2021 is $745.3 million, which includes the operating budget, Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP), and debt service. The proposed budget includes a decrease of 1 Full Time Employee (FTE). Proposed expenditures for the FY 2021 are summarized as follows: Operating $220.7 million CIRP $403.3 million Debt Service $121.3 million TOTAL EXPENSE BUDGET $745.3 million 1
Versus costs presented to and approved by the FY 2021 – 2024 Rate Commission, the operating budget for FY 2021 is projected to be 1.6% more than originally planned; and the CIRP budget for FY 2021 is projected to be 6.4% more than originally planned. The proposed FY 2021 budget for wastewater user charges is approximately $434.6 million, which is $17.0 million or 3.8% less than the amount presented and approved by the FY 2021 – 2024 Rate Commission. Reductions in debt serviceexpenses are anticipated to partially offset the projected decline in wastewater user charges due to a decrease in customer water usage. In addition, proceeds from the issuance of revenue bonds are forecasted to be $165.7 million in FY 2021 which is in line with the amount presented to and recommended by the Rate Commission. PHASE II STORMWATER PERMIT – The Missouri Department of Natural Resources has issued a Phase II Stormwater permit to MSD, St. Louis County, and 59 county municipalities, effective December 14, 2016 – September 30, 2021. 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 MSD meet its legal obligations as a stormwater permit holder and as the St. Louis Coordinating Authority, but it significantly reduces the overall compliance burden incurred by MSD’s co-permittees. Such an approach allows for a comprehensive and meaningful direction to our community’s Phase II Stormwater efforts. MSD 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. 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. This was amended by the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri on June 22, 2018. The agreement calls for $6.0 billion (in 2018 dollars) in improvements to the wastewater system over the next two decades. The FY 2021 capital 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 MSD Project Clear (MSDPC). MSDPC covers all Consent Decree activities and communications with stakeholders. Therefore, MSDPC is a multi-billion dollar, multi-decade initiative to plan, design, and build system-wide improvements to address water quality and alleviate many wastewater concerns in the St. Louis region. MSDPC focuses on system-wide improvements to get the rain out, repair and maintain, and build system improvements. Projects range in scale from massive underground tunnels that carry the volume of stormwater needed in a growing region, to the disconnection of residential downspouts from the sanitary sewer lines, and rainscaping improvements to manage stormwater runoff. RAINSCAPING / GREEN INFRASTRUCTURE – As part of the amendment of the Consent Decree, MSD also agreed to 2
invest at least $20 million in green infrastructure in the Lemay Service Area/River Des Peres Watershed, reducing untreated overflow volume to the River Des Peres. This is in addition to the existing $100 million program within the Bissell Point watershed, which is predominantly served by the combined sewer system. The rainscaping program includes: Up to $13.5 million ($1.5 million was spent in the pilotphase) will be used to demolish hundreds ofabandoned, structurally-condemned buildings thatpresent a threat to public health and safety in the Cityof St. Louis. These demolitions reduce impervioussurface area, which lessens the burden placed on thecombined sewer system during moderate to heavyrainstorms.The Large Scale Rainscaping Program continues tobuild partnerships with municipalities, schools,community development organizations, privatedevelopers, and others. These partnerships helpidentify joint opportunities to incorporate rainscapinginto ongoing development and other activities in theBissell Point watershed.The Small Grants Rainscaping Program encourageshomeowners, neighborhood groups, and otherorganizations to apply for grants, recently increased toup to $4,000. These grants are designed to help MSDcustomers utilize raingardens, bioretention cells,pervious pavement, green roofs, and other rainscapingtechniques at their home or business.In addition to green infrastructure programs listed above, in FY 2020 MSD will utilizing part of the 5110 Stormwater Regulatory Fund to provide 45 small grants to homeowners to install rainscaping features at their homes. WASTEWATER PROJECTS – In FY 2021, MSD has plans for 140 new or continuing wastewater projects, throughout the service area, totaling $383 million. These projects are funded primarily from the Sanitary Replacement Fund and bond sales. The work represents $24 million in continued projects and $359 million in new projects. STORMWATER PROJECTS - In FY 2021, MSD tentatively plans 30 stormwater projects, including continuing projects from FY 2020, totaling $20 million. BOND UTILIZATION & RATINGS – Since FY 2004, MSD has utilized voter approved bonds to lessen the steepness of necessary rate increases. While bonds must be repaid with interest, the dollars raised through their issuance has helped maintain the relative affordability of MSD rates. Proceeds from the issuance of bonds must be – and can only be – used to finance wastewater projects that are a part of MSD’s Capital Improvement and Replacement Program (CIRP). Through bond elections in 2004, 2008, 2012, and 2016, area voters have approved a total of $2.62 billion in bond authorizations. As of December 31, 2019, MSD has utilized $2.02 billion of the voter approved bond authorizations. Of that amount, $1.56 billion in bonds is outstanding. $598.4 million in bond authorization remains to be utilized. Thanks to strong financial operations; an experienced management staff; strong management and planning capabilities for the CIRP; and strong voter support for the bond authorizations, MSD enjoys some of the highest bond ratings received by any sewer utility in the United States. The current ratings are: Moody’s - Aa1; Standard & Poor’s – AAA; Fitch – AA+. These strong ratings allow MSD to issue bonds at lower interest rates, which in-turn lowers the costs that are passed on to MSD customers. 3
RATE COMMISSION – The MSD Rate Commission was established in 2000 through voter approved amendments to MSD’s Charter. Composed of 15 member organizations that represent 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. By Charter, MSD staff is required to submit all rate proposals to the Rate Commission. In turn, the Rate Commission independently reviews rate proposals and makes recommendations to MSD’s Board of Trustees. Only under parameters defined in MSD’s Charter can Rate Commission recommendations be changed, modified, or rejected. The Rate Commission submitted a Recommendation to the MSD Board of Trustees on August 16, 2019. The recommendation includes a rate increase for wastewater, either with additional bonding or without. Per Ordinance 3547 the Board of Trustees accepted the Rate Commissions recommendation and voters will decide on bonding or no bonding in April 2020. DIVERSITY – Diversity efforts at MSD continue to focus on helping develop and grow minority- and women-owned business enterprises (MWBE); and to develop a diverse workforce from which contractors can hire workers for MSD projects. In FY 2019, minority firms performed $36.6 million in capital work, which represents 21.3% of MSD’s capital program. Women-owned firms performed $14.1 million in capital work, representing 8.2% of MSD’s capital program. Within the same timeframe, minority construction workforce participation was 663,448 hours, or 29.7% of the total hours worked on capital projects. Women construction workforce participation was 158,056 hours, or 7% of total hours worked on capital projects. For capital program professional services (design) with workforce participation goals, minorities represented 16.5% and women represented 37% of the workforce. As MSD continues the important work we are doing to protect our environment and serve our St. Louis community, we strive to ensure that our efforts reflect the diverse citizenry that we serve. In FY 2021, 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 inform the community of our operations and needs. We will persist in addressing the health, safety, and environmental needs we face today and years into the future. Sincerely, Brian Hoelscher, P.E. Executive Director & Chief Executive Officer 4

BUDGET SUMMARYThe Budget Summary section contains policies, processes, graphs and chartsrelated to budget development. This section also contains information regardingstaffing and a summary of the Capital Improvement and Replacement Program.7
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 Performance Against Policy Section 7.130 of the District’s Charter requires a balanced budget be submitted to The Board for approval. It mandates the following three requirements: 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. “Changes in Fund Balance” pages are included in this book to demonstrate compliance with this policy. 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. FY21 Total Revenue: (shown in million $) Wastewater User Charges: $434.6 Revenue Bonds: 165.7 Taxes: 42.7 Investment and Other Income: 12.3 Use of Fund Balances: 90.0 TOTAL DISTRICT REVENUE: $745.3 FY21 Total Expense: (shown in million $) Operating Budget: $220.7 CIRP: 403.3 Debt Service: 121.3 TOTAL DISTRICT EXPENSES: $745.3 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. The Board of Trustees received all of the required documents on March 12, 2020. 8
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Operating Budget Policies Performance Against PolicyHistorical 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. “Changes in Fund Balance” pages are included in this book to demonstrate compliance with this policy. Whenever approved by The Board, the Executive Director may transfer any unencumbered appropriation balances or portions from one classification of expenditure to another. The District complies with this policy. 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. The District complies with this policy. 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. The District’s accounting system has controls to ensure compliance with the budget. Managers receive daily reports that show financial performance against budget. Monthly reports comparing actual revenues and expenditures are prepared for Senior Management and highlights of these reports are presented quarterly to the Finance Committee of the Board of Trustees. 9
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Revenue Policies Performance Against PolicyThe District will seek to maintain a diversified and stable revenue system to minimize short-run fluctuations in any one revenue source. User Charge Fees are the District’s primary source of funding for wastewater operations. While some of these fees are also used for capital improvements, the District also uses revenue bonds to finance a large portion of the CIRP. The District will follow an aggressive policy of collecting revenues. The District uses a multi-layered approach to collecting past due accounts. It employs a series of automated reminder calls to accounts that are 25 days delinquent. Accounts that remain delinquent then progress to being placed with collection agencies, second placement agencies and eventually law firms for collection. 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 is required to submit rate change proposals to a Rate Commission. During this rate setting process, the District’s rate consultant performed a detailed cost of service analysis using industry standard principles endorsed by the Water Environment Federation which allows the District to demonstrate that rates have been set at a level to recover the full cost, without excess, of providing service. 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 District reviews fee revenue annually as part of the budget process to ensure it is adequate to meet the District’s balanced budget requirement. Investment Policies Performance Against PolicyThe District will maximize the return on all cash available for investment without sacrifice of safety or necessary liquidity. The District complies with this policy. 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. The Secretary-Treasurer reports monthly to the Finance Committee of The Board on the performance and make-up of the investment portfolio. 10
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Debt Policies Performance Against Policy The Board shall authorize and approve all debt issued for the purpose of financing portions of the District’s CIRP as well as debt that may be issued for the purpose of refunding any outstanding District debt. In the previous budget year, The District participated in the 2019A SRF Direct Loan Program with the State of Missouri , Series 2019B Wastewater System Revenue Bonds, and the Series 2019C Taxable Wastewater System Refunding Revenue Bonds. The Board approved these debt issuances with Ordinances 15265 (2019A), 15311 (2019B), 15312 (2019C). The Board also approved Ordinance 15350 authorizing and directing the issuance, sale, and delivery of Wastewater System Refunding Revenue Bonds through December 31, 2020. 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. Any bond issues to refund on an advanced basis would be taxable debt. The District complies with this policy. 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’s use of revenue bonds during FY20 was consistent with use of debt outlined in the Rate Change Report accepted by The Board on October 8, 2015. The proceeds from these bonds were used solely for capital improvements, where the assets gained have a useful life greater than the weighted average maturity of the debt. 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. The District’s use of revenue bonds in FY20 for capital improvement projects will be serviced with pledged revenues from sanitary sewer user charges. 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. The District’s issuance of revenue bonds in FY20 were authorized by voters at special election held on April 5, 2016. 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. The District has no outstanding general obligation bonds. Any general obligation bonds issued under the District charter shall mature over a period not exceeding 20 years from the date contracted, while revenue bond maturities may extend to 30 years. The District has no outstanding general obligation bonds. 11
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued)Debt Policies (continued)Performance Against PolicyFor 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 principle amount of the outstanding indebtedness to be refunded and the accrued interest to the date of such refunding bonds. To date, the District has executed one taxable refunding in FY 2020. The 2019C Taxable Wastewater System Refunding Senior Revenue bonds refunded $103.1 million of the 2012A, $83.9 million of the 2012B, $68.0 million of the 2013B, and $18.4 million of the 2015B Bonds. The 2019C Issue does not count against authorization. The refunding did not exceed the compliance levels and the District is compliance with this policy. 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 adefined and adequate repayment source.Lines of Credit may be considered as an alternative toother short-term borrowing options if it is determinedto be more cost-effective.Other short-term debt, including commercial papernotes, may be used when it provides an interest rateadvantage or as interim financing until marketconditions are more favorable for long-term debtissuance.The District did not utilize short-term borrowing in FY20. 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. The District did not utilize short-term borrowing in FY20. 12
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued)Reserve Policies Performance Against PolicyThe 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. Operating Reserves for: FY19 – Actual – 165 days FY20 – Projected – 161 days 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 is in compliance with these minimum balance requirements. Please refer to the “Changes in Fund Balance” tables for these funds in the Debt Service & Special Funds section of this book for exact fund balances. The District will maintain a Wastewater Backup Insurance and Reimbursement Fund with a minimum balance of $1 million dollars. The District is in compliance with this minimum balance requirement. Please refer to the “Changes in Fund Balance” tables for these funds in the Debt Service & Special Funds section of this book for exact balances. The District will maintain a General Insurance Fund with a minimum balance of $500,000 dollars. The District is in compliance with this minimum balance requirement. Please refer to the “Changes in Fund Balance” tables for these funds in the Debt Service & Special Funds section of this book for exact balances. Funds will be reserved to comply with the terms and conditions of the debt instruments used to finance capital improvement projects. The Master Bond Document contains a 45-day reserve requirement. Operating reserves for: FY19 – Actual – 165 days FY20 – Projected – 161 days 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. The District maintains separate funds to account for each of the taxing subdistricts it manages. 13
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Capital Improvement and Replacement Policies Performance Against PolicyThe 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 of Trustees received the five-year CIRP on March 12, 2020. This plan is updated annually and is consistent with The District’s long-term plan for wastewater and stormwater projects. 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 complies with this policy. 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. The District complies with this policy. Financial and Accounting Policies Performance Against PolicyAn 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. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP issued their Independent Auditors’ Report for the financial statements as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019 on October 09, 2019. Financial reports will be submitted to The Board and District Staff. The District complies with this policy. District financial information will be available through monthly financial statements, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and Annual Budget. The District prepares monthly financial statements and publishes quarterly statements on its website. The CAFR and the Annual Budget are also available on the District’s website. The District will produce annual financial reports in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) as outlined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The District’s CAFR is prepared in accordance with GAAP as outlined by the GASB. 14
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. The District uses both Governmental Funds and Proprietary Funds. The District uses a Modified Accrual method of budgeting, and both Modified Accrual and Accrual bases of accounting. In the table below, each fund type and group is identified. The purpose of the fund is stated, and the Budgeting Basis and Accounting Basis are also reported for each fund group. Modified Accrual Accounting or Budgeting recognizes revenues when they are both available and measurable. Most expenditures are recognized when an obligation to pay is established, except in the case of interest on long‐term debt. That interest expense is recognized when it is due. Full Accrual Accounting is very similar to Modified Accrual Accounting. Under Full Accrual revenues are recognized when earned, and expenditures are recognized when an obligation to pay is established. However, the major ways in which Modified Accrual is different than Full Accrual is the recognition of Capital expenditures. Under the Modified Accrual method, Capital expenditures are recognized when the entity has an obligation to pay. Under the Full Accrual method, Capital expenditures are recognized over the life of the asset. 15
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Fund Type/Fund Title Purpose Budgeting Basis Accounting Basis GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS 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. Modified Accrual Modified Accrual Revenue Funds The Revenue Funds account for all wastewater 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. Modified Accrual Modified Accrual Stormwater and Operations, Maintenance and Construction Improvement Funds 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. Effective in Fiscal Year 2017, tax levies for all OMCI subdistricts were suspended. Remaining fund balances will be used for maintenance and operation of facilities in the respective subdistricts until balances are depleted. However, in Fiscal Year 2021 Coldwater Creek Trunk Subdistrict, Maline Creek Trunk Subdistrict, Subdistrict No. 366 (University City Branch of River des Peres Stormwater Subdistrict), Subdistrict No. 367 (Deer Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) Subdistrict No. 369 (Sugar Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) and Subdistrict No. 454 (Seminary Branch of River des Peres) will reinstate the tax levies to provide funding for stormwater capital improvements. Modified Accrual Modified Accrual 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. Modified Accrual Modified Accrual 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. Modified Accrual Modified Accrual 16
BUDGET & FINANCIAL POLICIES (continued) Fund Type/Fund Title Purpose Budgeting Basis Accounting Basis GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS (continued) 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.

STRATEGIC BUSINESS AND OPERATING PLAN
The Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 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 2021 goals may
appear similar to the original set of goals, the underlying refinements and changes in these goals are significant. The FY 2021 SBOP is easily understood, the
goals and resulting strategies are actionable, and the impact of the strategies is measurable. Additionally, the FY 2021 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 2021 SBOP proposes six business-focused strategies:
Strategy 1: Inform, educate and partner to build stakeholder understanding.
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.
20
METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT
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 o f 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 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.
21
METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT
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, stormwater, and supporting assets, including data and information
technology security. This can only be achieved through investigation, planning, maintenance and capital replacement programs with continual consideration
for emerging technology. 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 accountabil ity: 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 employee’s role in the success of the overall organization.
FISCAL YEAR 2021 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 2021 and beyond, as we strive to protect the public’s health, safety and water environment by responsibly providing wastewater and
stormwater management.
Achieving these objectives is the responsibility of various departments within the District. These departments are shown on the following

BUDGET PROCESS FY21 The District’s 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 FY21 STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLAN STRATEGY OBJECTIVE Provide full implementation of services funded through stormwater revenues. 2 3 Evaluate all extended position vacancies to determine if they can be eliminated from the FY21 budget 2 2 No acceleration of Consent Decree projects funded with pay-go cash. Acceleration of bonded projects only allowed after review by senior management. 2 3 All business cases will also require extended justification as to why new initiatives need to be done this year and cannot wait until future budget requests. 2 3 Department Directors and Managers begin budget development by providing an updated expenditure forecast for the remainder of FY20. A two step, zero-based budgeting method is used to develop the FY21 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 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. 51
BUDGET PROCESS FY21-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 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.FY21 Total Revenue: (shown in million $)Wastewater User Charges: $434.6 Revenue Bonds: 165.7 Taxes: 42.7 Investment and Other Income: 12.3 Use of Fund Balances: 90.0 TOTAL DISTRICT REVENUE: $745.3 2.Operating Expenses are developed using a zero based budgeting method with written justification for all expenditures. The CIRP is developed bythe District’s Engineering Department based on the revenues forecasted for the coming year. Projects prioritized for the coming year are outlined ina supplemental report in conjunction with the Operating Budget. Debt service for the District’s existing and forecasted use of bonds is developed bythe District’s Secretary-Treasurer’s Department and incorporated into the Operating Budget.FY21 Total Expense: (shown in million $)Operating Budget: $220.7 CIRP: 403.3 Debt Service: 121.3 TOTAL DISTRICT EXPENSES: $745.3 52

FY21 SOURCES OF FUNDING USER CHARGES The District has a Wastewater User Charge which is recorded in the Wastewater 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, a portion is allocated to the General Insurance Fund to provide for workers’ compensation, property, general liability and other insurance expenditures, 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 Fund for construction projects and emergencies. A chart detailing the flow of funds is also included in the following 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 FY21 is estimated at $435.7million. 55
FY21 SOURCES OF FUNDING-continued Other User Charges: Other User Charge revenue such as Late Fees, Lien Interest, Refunds and Account Adjustments are estimated to be negative $1.0 million. This amount is net of a provision for doubtful accounts, or past-due customer bills that might go uncollected. TOTAL WASTEWATER USER CHARGE REVENUE: The District’s total FY21 User Charge revenue is estimated to be $434.6 million. The District provides an assistance program to customers who meet the eligibility requirements of income, age or disability. Those customers who are eligible will receive a 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. REVENUE BONDS The District plans to receive approximately $165.7 million in bond and loan proceeds in FY21 to be used for capital improvement projects. These proceeds are expected to be derived from Senior Revenue bonds with a par value of $118.7 million providing approximately $135.7 million in proceeds including premiums of $17.0 million. The remaining $30.0 million in proceeds will be derived from participation in the State of Missouri SRF direct loan program. Prior to a November 2000 Charter change, the District was unable to issue revenue bonds as a source of funding its 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. 56
FY21 SOURCES OF FUNDING-continued AD VALOREM TAXES The District’s budget for tax revenue in FY21 totals $42.7 million. During FY21 all taxpayers within the District’s boundaries will be assessed a $0.0175 (one point seventy-five cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay primarily for stormwater services required by State and Federal regulations. With the exception of taxpayers living in certain levy districts, all taxpayers within the District will also be assessed a $0.0902 (nine point zero two cents) per $100 of assessed valuation tax levy to pay for the District’s non-regulatory stormwater costs. This tax revenue of approximately $33.6 million is recorded in the Stormwater Regulatory Fund ($5,589,570) and the Districtwide Stormwater Fund ($27,969,528) of the District. Additional tax revenue of approximately $1.1 million for Railroad and Utility, Financial Institution Tax, TIF PILOT refunds, and other sources are also recorded to the Stormwater Regulatory Fund ($187,717) and the Districtwide Stormwater Fund ($953,196).Other property tax rates were suspended within the District’s boundaries beginning in FY17. All subdistrict taxes previously collected within these boundaries are held in the 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 were collected. However, in FY21 the District will reinstate six of the tax levies to provide funding for stormwater capital projects for Coldwater Creek Trunk Subdistrict assessed a $0.090 (nine point zero cents) estimated revenues of $2.0 million, Maline Creek Trunk Subdistrict will be assessed a $0.091 (nine point one cents) estimated revenues of $0.7 million, Subdistrict No. 366 (University City Branch of River des Peres Stormwater Subdistrict) will be assessed a $0.083 (eight point three cents) estimated revenues of $1.0 million, Subdistrict No. 367 (Deer Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) will be assessed a $0.073 (seven point three cents) estimated revenues of $3.9 million, Subdistrict No. 369 (Sugar Creek Stormwater Subdistrict) will be assessed a $0.056 (five point sixcents) estimated revenues of $0.3 million, and Subdistrict No. 454 (Seminary Branch of River des Peres) will be assessed a $0.061 (six point one cents) estimated revenues of $0.2 million. INVESTMENT INCOME & OTHER FEES Investment Income and Other Fees will fund $12.3 million of the Budget. Investment Income of approximately $6.4 million is anticipated. Connection fees are expected to generate $3.2 million 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. Miscellaneous Income of approximately $2.1 million is expected, comprised mostly of $1.2 million court awarded court costs and attorney fees. Forfeited Construction Deposits are projected to be $521 Thousand. Reimbursement of District Costs makes up the remainder of the Miscellaneous Income. Rental income is expected to generate $281 thousand. Finally, $253 Thousand is expected to be generated from the sale of scrap. 57
GRANT INCOME No grant income is anticipated during the 21 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 $90.0 million during FY21. 58

STORMWATER AND OMCI FUNDSThese funds were established to account for proceeds from tax levies. Expenditures are primarily for stormwater sewer improvements and stormwater maintenance and operation.Taxes collected in the various subdistricts must be spent within the subdistrict. Effective in 2016 all subdistrict tax rates were voluntarily set to zero. Beginning in FY21, tax rates in six of the subdistricts will no longer be reduced to zero, so stormwater projects can be started. Fund balances will be spent on either projects or maintenance and operation expense in the respective subdistricts.STORMWATER AND OPERTION, MAINTENANCEand CONSTRUCTION IMPROVEMENT FUNDS117

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 and as required by the Consent Decree. 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 ensure 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 Metered Property, using the most current determination of Contributed Wastewater Volume. A minimum of 1 Ccf per Metered Property, or per unit in the case of Multi-unit Residential Properties, will be charged. (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 205
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 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 which average concentration exceeds 300 milligrams per liter or Biochemical Oxygen Demand which average concentration exceeds 300 milligrams per liter, with said Extra Strength Surcharge 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 206
which average concentration exceeds 600 milligrams per liter, with said Extra Strength Surcharge 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 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 207
Contributed Wastewater Volume. No credit is given when the wastewater strength is less than normal wastewater. (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 measured by a water meter not acceptable to the District, then in such case, the User, at the User’s 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 (30) 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 208
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. 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 Unmetered Residential 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 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. (C) 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. (D) 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, 209
maintenance, improvement, renewal, replacement and reconstruction of the District's Wastewater System. Section Four. 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 Five. 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. 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 210
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 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 Six. 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 hereby imposed for each month or portion thereof that the Wastewater User Charges remain unpaid beyond the due date. Section Seven. 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 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 211
payable to the District as a prerequisite to releasing said lien. Section Eight. 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 (3) 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 (15) 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 may refuse to contract for any purpose with or accept Wastewater or Storm Water from any such Owner and/or User. Section Nine. Remedies. Whenever any Wastewater User Charge on an account is unpaid after sixty (60) days from the date the bill for such account was rendered, then the amount for all such Charges, including late fees and attorney fees, accrued and accruing on the account may be collected by any or all of the following three (3) 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, 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. 212
