The study determined increased filtration, sewer, and stormwater charges are <br />necessary to meet water quality, supply, regulatory and financial obligation of Everett <br />Utilities. There shall be no increase in water charges. Based on consumption of 1,000 <br />cubic feet per month, combined water and filtration rates will increase annually from <br />the current charge of $47.45 per month to $47.97 in 2021, $48.25 per month in 2022, <br />$48.54 per month in 2023, and $48.84 in 2024. <br />Increased sewer and surface water are necessary to maintain, replace, and expand <br />utility infrastructure. Sewer rates will increase annually from the current $77.11 per <br />month to $80.27 in 2021, $83.22 in 2022, $86.29 in 2023, and $89.48 in 2023. Surface <br />water rates for non-sewered accounts will increase annually from the current single- <br />family charge of $25.94 per month to $27.25 per month in 2021, $28.61 in 2022, $30.04 <br />in 2023 and $31.54 in 2024. <br />The overall utility charge increases for a single-family customer using 1,000 cubic feet of <br />water per month will be 2.95% in 2021, 2.52% in 2022, 2.56% in 2023, and 2.60% in <br />2024. <br />Project summary statement: <br />An ordinance establishing rates for Everett sewer service and surface water <br />management, rates for water and filtration for inside and outside City customers and <br />repealing Ordinance 3529-17 and 3549-17. <br />Recommendation (exact action requested of Council): <br />Adopt an Ordinance establishing Everett Utilities rates for 2021 2024 and repealing <br />Ordinances 3529-17 and 3549-17 <br />
