BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS,
AMENDING SECTION 28 OF ORDINANCE NO. 78-F-7 GOVERN-
ING CONNECTION OF THE WATER AND SEWER SYSTEM OF THE
CIT~ OF SCHERTZ AND REGULATING SAME AND PROVIDING
FOR PUBLICATION AND PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Cibolo Creek Municipal Authority has increased their
charges to the City of Schertz for sewer services, NOW THEREFORE
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SCHERTZ, TEXAS
I
That Section 28 of Ordinance No. 78-F-7 governing connection to
the Water and Sewer System of the City of Schertz be amended to read as
follows:
SECTION 28 That the rates and charges for the services of the
City of Schertz, Texas, shall consist of a base rate for debt service and
system depreciation and a user charge for system operation and maintenance.
The rates and charges shall be assessed according to the following categories:
Single Family Residence
Base Rate - Each single family residential connection shall be
assessed a base rate of $2.50 per month.
User Charge - Each single family residential user of the sewer
system shall be assessed a monthly rate based on 70% of the
user's average water consumption as computed for the months
of December, January and February. Eighty cents (80~) shall
be assessed for each thousand gallons.
In the event a customer moves from one address to another,
within the City, his sewer rate at the new address shall
be the same as that at the former address until the annual
re-rating which shall occur in February of each year. In
the event that no previous rate has been established by the
customer, the rate assessed shall be determined by taking
the overall average of chargeable water consumption of all
single family residences on the sewer system.
Business and Multi-Family Dwelling Units
Base Rate - The base rate shall be assessed in terms of connec-
tion equivalents, which equivalents shall be determined as
follows:
Customer's previous twelve month water consumption as deter-
mined at the annual re-rating in February, shall be divided
by 365; and the result of such division shall then be divided
by 245. The figure arrived at by the second division shall
be the customer's connection equivalent.
~
. .
. .'~
Each business and multi-family dwelling connection shall
be assessed a base rate of $2.50 per connection equiva-
lent per month. In the event of a new sewer connection
or a change in use of the existing connection, the base
rate assessed shall be based on the connection equiva-
lent as determined by Cibolo Creek Municipal Authority
in calculating sewer connection fees, until such time
as the customer has established a six-months average.
At such time the base rate shall be based on the six-
months average until the annual re-rating which shall
occur in each year in the month of February.
User Charge - The user charge shall be assessed on 100%
of the customer's water consumption eighty cents (80~)
per thousand gallons.
Public Schools
Base Rate - Each public school shall be assessed a base
rate of $2.50 per connection equivalent. In the event
that new schools are constructed, the base rate shall
be based on the connection equivalents as determined
by Cibolo Creek Municipal Authority in determining sewer
connection fees, until such time as the new school has
established a twelve months average. At such time, the
base rate shall be based on the twelve month average
until the annual re-rating in February.
User Charge - The user charge shall be based on 70% of
all water consumed each month eighty cents (80~) per
thousand gallons.
Where industrial wastes are discharged into the sewers, if such
waste contains amounts of suspended solids and/or biochemical oxygen demand
in excess of normal domestic waste, the service chage for such connection
shall be subject to negotiation between the business establishment and the
City. Such special charges shall be based on the quanity and quality of
waste discharged into the sewerage system of the City.
Whenever a customer of the City Water Service and/or the City
Sewer Service terminates such service at one address and renews either of
such services at a different address, then and in that event a $2.00 re-
connection fee for sewer services shall be assessed against such customer
for the services required in disconnecting and reconnecting such customer.
If, and in the event, it is determined that as a result of a tem-
porary water leak or other unusual circumstance the means of establishing
rates for sewer service by measurement of water flow would place a sub-
stantial burden on the customer, then the water consumption for such tem-
porary period shall be determined by the Superintendent of Utilities based
on evidence available to him. His determination shall be final and un-
appealable.
Any residence or business outside the City limits desiring to be
included in the sewer system must negotiate with Cibolo Creek Municipal
Authority and the City, and the price for such connection is to be deter-
mined by such negotiation.
