ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58- 14 -10 -F of the City Manager of the City of Eugene AMENDMENT OF THE STORMWATER USER FEE SCHEDULE AND REPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58- 12 -03 -F. The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: A. Section 6.411 of the Eugene Code, 1971, authorizes the City Manager to determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for wastewater service, regional wastewater service, and stormwater service. Pursuant to that authority, on April 30, 2012, I issued Administrative Order No. 58- 12 -03 -F amending the Stormwater User Fee Schedule, which became effective and final on May 11, 2012, for bills issued on or after July 1, 2012. B. In accordance with the provisions of EC 6.411, on June 11, 2014, I issued Administrative Order No. 58- 14 -10, proposing to amend the Stormwater User Fee Schedule that had been established by Administrative Order No. 58- 12 -03 -F. The current and proposed stormwater user fees were set out in the Notice attached as Exhibit A to Administrative Order No. 58- 14 -10. The Notice also provided that written comments would be received for a period of ten days from the first date of publication and posting, and that comments would also be received at the public hearing to be held in the Public Works Engineering Les Lyle conference room, 99 E. Broadway, 4 th floor, Eugene, Oregon 97401, on July 2, 2014, at 2 p.m. C. The Notice was provided to the Mayor and City Councilors, the news media, any person who had requested such notice, and to interested governmental agencies (including the United States Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Environmental Quality, MWMC, and the Eugene Water & Electric Board), and was made available for inspection at the offices of the Public Works Department, 101 E.

In addition, the Notice was posted at two locations at City Hall on June 20, 2014, and published in the.Register Guard Newspaper on June 21 and 22, 2014. D. Two comments were received in response to the proposed amendments. A summary of the comments and my response to the comments are as follows: Comment 1 : Bob Siegmund submitted an e -mail indicating that EWEB was not aware of any increase to stormwater rates and asked for a response in that regard. Response Staff contacted Mr. Siegmund to let him know that stormwater rate amendments were being processed and were expected to become effective in September. Administrative Order -- Page 1 of 2
