FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE 2004 MWMC WASTEWATER FACILITIES PLAN AND SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGE METHODOLOGY <br /> <br />Facilities Plan Question 2. How do MWMC's current monthly sewer rates and <br />system development charges (SDCs) compare to other Oregon wastewater <br />service providers? <br />MWMC's average monthly residential rates compare favorably to other communities (see <br />current monthly rates figure). MWMC's SDCs are significantly lower than the SDCs <br />associated with other communities (see current SDC figure). Albany, Salem and the Tri-City <br />Service District in Clackamas County, which serves Gladstone, Oregon City, and West Linn, <br />were selected for comparison because they also discharge their treated wastewater into the <br />Willamette River and face similar discharge permit requirements. When compared to a <br />broader range of Oregon communities Eugene-Springfield user rates and SDCs still <br />compare favorably. <br /> <br /> Current Monthly Sewer Rates <br /> for Residential Customers <br /> <br /> $35 <br /> <br /> $3O <br /> <br /> $25 <br /> <br /> $20 <br /> $15 ~ <br /> $10 <br /> <br /> $5- <br /> $o ~ <br /> MWMC - MWMC - Albany Salem Tri-City <br /> Eugene Springfield <br /> <br />SHAWNS COMMENTS TO FAQ'S ON 4-16-04_1.DOC PAGE 2 OF 13 <br /> <br /> <br />
