RESOLUTION NO. 4943 A RESOLUTION ADOPTING AN INFLATIONARY ADJUSTMENT OF SYSTEMS DEVELOPMENT CHARGE RATES FOR REGIONAL WASTEWATER SYSTEM. The City Council of the City of Eugene finds as follows: A. The System Development Charges (SDC) Methodologies were adopted by Resolution No. 4900, effective on May 7,2007. B. Since the adoption of Resolution No. 4900, inflationary adjustment of the SDC rates for Regional Wastewater System were adopted by Administrative Order No. 58-07-08-F, effective August 20, 2007; inflationary adjustment of the SDC rates for Local Wastewater, Stormwater, and Transportation Systems were adopted by Administrative Order No. 58-08-02-F, effective April 3, 2008; and amendment of the SDC Methodology for Parks System was adopted by Resolution No. 4929, effective April 3, 2008. C. Based on the 20-city national average Construction Cost Index as published by the Engineering News-Record, it is necessary to amend the SDCs to reflect an indexed 2.67% inflationary increase for Regional Wastewater System. The adjustment results in rate increases of 2.0% to 2.2%, depending on the strength category. D. Section 2.4 of the SDC Methodologies requires that adjustment of fees by more than 5% within any 12-month period be implemented by resolution of the City Council. The 4.2% inflationary adjustment adopted by Administrative Order No. 58-07-08-F effective August 20, 2007, together with this adjustment to become effective on July 1, 2008, results in an adjustment of more than 5% within a 12-month period. NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the above findings, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows: Section 1. The Systems Development Charges are amended by implementing an inflationary increase to the Regional Wastewater System as set forth in the attached Exhibit A. Section 2.
