14.1  
REPORT - SONOMA COUNTY WATER AGENCY 2023/24 WATER  
TRANSMISSION BUDGET AND RATE INCREASE  
BACKGROUND: The City of Santa Rosa purchases approximately 95%  
of the water supplied to our customers from the Sonoma Water, the  
region’s water wholesaler. Sonoma Water is proposing to raise the  
wholesale rate of water by 10.56% from $1,061.04 per acre-foot to  
$1173.09 per acre foot.  
There is a Water Advisory Committee (WAC) made up of elected  
officials of each of the eight prime contractors, including Santa Rosa,  
that purchase water from Sonoma Water. The WAC is an advisory  
committee to the Sonoma Water Board of Directors. The City’s WAC  
Representative is Mayor Natalie Rogers. On April 3, 2023, the WAC is  
scheduled to vote on whether or not to recommend approval of the  
Sonoma Water proposed 2023/24 budget and rate increase to the  
Sonoma Water Board of Directors.  
The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) is made of technical staff of  
each of the eight prime contractors that purchase water from Sonoma  
Water. The TAC provides technical analysis and recommendations to  
the WAC. The TAC considered Sonoma Water’s proposed 2023/24  
budget and rates on March 6, 2023 and voted in favor of recommending  
the proposed budget and rate increase with Santa Rosa’s TAC  
representative voting in opposition.  
The Board of Public Utilities reviewed Sonoma Water’s proposed  
budget and rate increase on March 16, 2023 and made a  
recommendation to City Council regarding Council’s direction to the  
City’s WAC Representative on Sonoma Water’s proposed 2023/24  
budget and rates. The City Council may advise its WAC representative  
on how to vote at the April 3, 2023 WAC meeting. Ultimately the  
Sonoma Water Board of Directors has final authority to approve  
Sonoma Water’s proposed 2023/24 budget and rates.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Board of Public  
Utilities and Santa Rosa Water that the Council, by motion, consider  
Sonoma Water’s proposed 2023/24 Water Transmission Budget and  
rate increase and provide direction to its Water Advisory Committee  
representative for the April 3, 2023 Water Advisory Committee vote on  
the proposed 2023/24 Water Transmission Budget and rate increase.

Advisory Committee (WAC) representative, Mayor N. Rogers, to  
support Sonoma Water's proposed 2023/24 Water Transmission  
Budget and rate increase at the WAC April 3, 2023 meeting. The  
motion failed due to lack of second.  
A motion was made by Council Member Stapp, seconded by Vice Mayor  
MacDonald, to advise the Water Advisory Committee (WAC) representative,  
Mayor N. Rogers, to oppose Sonoma Water's proposed 2023/24 Water  
Transmission Budget and rate increase at the WAC April 3, 2023 meeting.
