Based on the above strategy, the following user fee service rates are proposed for 1998-99: <br />Storm Water Utility Fund. Recommendation: No increase in fees. <br />1. The monthly rates would be held at the current level which has been in place since 1993. <br />The revenue requirement for continuation of all current service levels amounts to <br />$140,100. Reductions proposed in this fund eliminate this additional funding <br />requirement <br />Current <br />Proposed <br />Monthly <br />Monthly <br />Rate <br />Rate (revised) <br />- Residential $ 2.19 <br />$ 2.19 <br />Commercial $17.55 <br />$17.55 <br />2. Street sweeping in residential areas of San Leandro will be reduced from twice to only <br />once per month. Current sweeping in the downtown, other commercial areas, and <br />industrial areas will remain at the present schedule. This reduction in service will lower <br />fund expenses by $58,000. Additional measures will be proposed to improve efficiency <br />by creating curb access for the sweeping equipment. <br />3. The capital improvement project for replacement of the Washington Avenue Pump <br />Station will be deferred beyond 1998-99. This project reflects an anticipated cost of <br />396,000. <br />Refuse Fund. Recommendation: No increase in recvclina fees: 6.4% increase in refuse fees. <br />City refuse and recycling operations are both in the Refuse Enterprise Fund, with individual user <br />fees. Continuing the present levels of service would require new rates resulting in nearly <br />$475,000 in additional revenue. A combination of service reductions and a modest rate increase <br />is recommended: <br />1. Recycling rates would be held at the current level, while the rates for refuse would be less <br />than originally proposed. <br />Recycling Service <br />Current Proposed <br />Monthly Monthly <br />Rate Rate (revised) <br />$ 5.10 $ 5.10 <br />N <br />
