21-0476 13.1Water-Wastewater Demand Fee UpdateCC- Study Session2021 WATER AND WASTEWATER DEMAND FEE UPDATE STUDY SESSION Water and wastewater demand fees, one-time fees charged for new development, are updated periodically to adjust the fees based on current system valuation and customer usage. On August 26, 2014 the 2014 Water and Wastewater Demand Fee Study and the current demand fee schedule were adopted by Council. Santa Rosa Water’s consultant, The Reed Group, Inc., performed a detailed analysis to develop a new fee schedule and update the Water and Wastewater Demand Fee. The proposed 2021 demand fee update will increase the demand fee per one thousand gallons of water and wastewater. However residential categories, based on Santa Rosa customer usage, have reduced resulting in the combined 2021 water and wastewater fees being less than the current combined demand fees. The Council may receive information, ask questions, discuss and provide feedback to staff regarding the 2021 Water and Wastewater Demand Fee Study Update.received and filed  Action details Video Video

The redistricting must be completed by mid-April 2022 to be operative in the November 2022 election. State Elections Code sets forth procedural requirements for local redistricting.

The Ordinance was expressly intended to apply, and has applied, throughout the County, including in both incorporated and unincorporated areas. On February 9, 2021, the Board of Supervisors amended the County’s Eviction Defense Ordinance to prohibit all evictions except (a) when necessary due to violence or threats to the health or safety of another, (b) when sought for the purpose of immediately removing the unit from the rental market, or (c) when based on non-payment of rent unrelated to ficontinuePass Roll call Video Video
