24-321BPU 19.3Water and Wastewater FY25/26 through FY29/30 Rate ScheduleBPU- ReportREPORT - 2024 WATER AND WASTEWATER COST OF SERVICE STUDY AND PROPOSED FY25/26 THROUGH FY29/30 RATE SCHEDULE BACKGROUND: In 2023, Santa Rosa Water (SRW) hired Hildebrand Consulting, LLC (HC), to develop a ten-year long-range financial plan, followed by a thorough cost of service analysis and recommendation of a new water and wastewater rate schedule. HC found SRW’s financial health is such that at the end of the current rate schedule, set to conclude on June 30, 2025, moderate annual water and wastewater rate increases would be required. Proposed increases between 6-7% each year for water fixed and usage charges and 5% each year for wastewater fixed and usage charges are proposed to help ensure that SRW continues to meet all service and financial obligations. In addition, SRW is proposing the re-introduction of the wholesale pass-through rate increase to water rates. This would ensure that the annual increase for wholesale water rates through Sonoma Water would be passed through to the usage portion of customer water bills, ensuring that SRW is neither under nor over charging cus   Not available Not available
