Administrative Order - Page 1 of 2 <br />  <br />  <br />  <br />MR  <br />  <br />ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58-22-15-F <br />of the <br />City Manager of the City of Eugene <br /> <br /> <br />SETTING WASTEWATER USER FEES AND SUPERSEDING THE FEE <br />SCHEDULE ADOPTED BY ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER NO. 58-21-06-F. <br /> <br /> <br />The City Manager of the City of Eugene finds as follows: <br /> <br />A. Section 6.411 of the Eugene, Code, 1971 (EC), authorizes the City Manager to <br />determine and set fees and charges to be imposed by the City for wastewater service, regional <br />wastewater service, and stormwater service. Pursuant to that authority, on May 17, 2021, I issued <br />Administrative Order No. 58-21-06-F making the most recent changes to the wastewater user fees <br />and adopting an updated Wastewater User Fee Schedule. <br /> <br />B. On March 14, 2022, I issued Administrative Order No. 58-22-15, ordering that <br />notice be given of the opportunity to submit written comments on my proposal to set new <br />wastewater user fees. The Notice specified that comments on the proposed rates for local (City of <br />Eugene) wastewater service could be submitted orally at the public hearing which would be held <br />remotely on April 6, 2022, at noon using virtual meeting technology, and that written comments <br />could otherwise be submitted to the City’s Public Works Financial Manager until 5 p.m. on April <br />6, 2022. The Notice further provided that comments on the proposed rates for regional (MWMC) <br />wastewater service could be submitted at the Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission <br />virtual meeting on Friday, April 8, 2022, at 7:30 a.m., and that written comments could otherwise <br />be submitted to the MWMC Secretary until 9 a.m. on April 8, 2022. One comment was submitted <br />which is addressed in the City Manager’s Findings attached as Exhibit B to this Order. <br /> <br />C. Based on my investigation of the revenue needs of the City in providing wastewater <br />services using the criteria in EC 6.411(2), and after considering the comment that was submitted, <br />I find that the wastewater user fees should be amended as proposed. (See Exhibit B) <br /> <br />D. The unamended wastewater user fees adopted by Administrative Order No. 58-21- <br />06-F are incorporated into the Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order. <br /> <br /> <br />On the basis of these findings, I order that: <br /> <br />1. A copy of this Order shall be promptly forwarded to the Mayor and City <br />Councilors. Unless reviewed by the Council pursuant to EC 6.411(1)(f), this Order shall become <br />final on the 11th day after the date it is rendered. <br /> <br />2. Notwithstanding the effective date of this Order as set forth above, the Wastewater <br />User Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order is the schedule of fees to be charged for the
