WHEREAS, Section 7.040 of the Charter of The Metropolitan St. Louis Sewer
District established the Rate Commission to review and make recommendations to the Board of
Trustees regarding all proposed changes in the District’s wastewater user charge rates and
stormwater user charge rates; and
WHEREAS, on March 21, 2008, the Rate Commission approved the rate proposal
in the Rate Commission Report, and,
WHEREAS, the March 21, 2008 Rate Commission Report called for an increase
in the Stormwater User Charge rate from $0.14 per 100ft2 to $0.17 per 100ft2 of impervious
surface area effective January 1, 2010; and,
WHEREAS, this anticipated Stormwater User Charge rate increase shall be
deferred at this time because the funds generated under the existing rate meet the District’s Fiscal
Year 2010 stormwater revenue requirements due to the update of the actual impervious surface
area of the District, which resulted in greater amounts of impervious surface area than the
amount estimated in the rate proposal.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF
THE METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS SEWER DISTRICT, THAT the Board hereby will amend
its acceptance of the recommendation of the March 21, 2008 Rate Commission Report,
previously accepted by Resolution No. 2785, adopted May 23, 2008, and will not increase, at this
time, the Stormwater User Charge rate from $0.14 per 100ft2 to $0.17 per 100ft2 of impervious
surface area effective January 1, 2010.
The foregoing Resolution was adopted December 10, 2009.
