A RESOLUTION ADOPTING UPDATED METROPOLITAN
WASTEWATER MANAGEMENT COMMISSION
REGIONAL SEWERAGE SYSTEM DEVELOPMENT CHARGE
UNIT COSTS AND REFERENCE DATA, AND AMENDING
RESOLUTION NO. 4740.
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds as follows:
A. On September 23, 2002, the System Development Charges (SDC) Methodologies
were adopted by Resolution No.4 7 40. Resolution No.4 7 40 remains in effect except as amended by
Resolution No. 4748 on January 27,2003, Resolution No. 4767 on July 28,2003, Resolution No.
4768 on July 28,2003, and Resolution No. 4770 on August 11,2003.
B. The Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission (MWMC) methodology for
determining the system development charges for new development that is to be connected to the
regional sanitary sewer system allows for the unit costs and reference data upon which the charge is
to be based to be adjusted from time to time as directed by the MWMC or its Executive Officer
without going through the process required to amend the methodology. In accordance with these
provisions, the unit costs and reference data are adjusted annually.
C. The MWMC has requested that both the City of Eugene and the City of Springfield
adopt the updated unit costs and reference data set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto. The City of
Springfield has already done so.
D. The City of Eugene' s SDC Methodologies, section 2.4, provide that increases in SDC
fees based on periodic application of a specific cost index or rate factor incorporated in the
Methodologies may be made administratively ifthe increase is less than five percent within any 12-
month period. Fee increases exceeding five percent must be adopted by resolution of the City
Council. The increase requested by the MWMC exceeds five percent.
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 City Council hereby adopts the updated Metropolitan Wastewater
Management Commission Regional Sewerage System Development Charge Unit Costs and
Reference Data attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Section 2. Updates to the rates as set out in Section 1 result in changes to the Regional
Resolution - 1
MWMC Wastewater System Development Charge Analysis and the Regional MWMC Wastewater
Rates in Appendix C of the City of Eugene SDC Methodologies.
Section 3. Resolution No. 4740, as amended by Resolutions No. 4748, 4767, 4768 and 4770,
is further amended as described in Sections 1 and 2.
Section 4. The City Recorder is requested to append a copy ofthis Resolution to Resolution
No. 4740.
Section 5. This Resolution shall become effective October 1, 2003.
The foregoing Resolution adopted the 24th day of September, 2003.

EXHIBIT A
Regional Wastewater System Excerpt from General Methodology, Section 4.2:
4.2 Regional Metropolitan Wastewater Management Commission' (MWMC)
Wastewater System
The City of Eugene entered into an Intergovernmental Agreement with the City of
Springfield and' Lane County. in 1978, which established the Metropolitan
Wastewater Management Commission. On May 15, 1997, the Commission
adopted the MWMC wastewater Systems Development Charge which includes a
regional administrative charge. In accordance with the agreement, the City of
Eugene must adopt rates and charges not less than those required by the
Commission.
The MWMC wastewater SDC formula is based on the allocation of costs of existing
or planned capacity to Average Flow, Peak Flow, Biochemical Oxygen Demand
(BOD) and Suspended Solids (SS) components of the regional facilities. These
cost allocations are used to derive a cost per Flow Estimation Unit (FEU), for each
type of land use. The regional wastewater SDC is determined by multiplying the
applicable FEU rate per unit of measure for a specific land use type, by the units of
measure for the proposed development. The regional wastewater system Cost of
Service formula per unit of development can be found in Appendix C. The regional
(MWMC) wastewater SDC rates can be found in the current adopted fee schedule
in Appendix F.
The MWMC wastewater SDC Methodology provides that a review of the Capital
Improvement Plan (CIP) will be initiated at such time as any single development
with an anticipated discharge of 100,000 gallons per day or more applies for a
building permit or for connection to the system. The purpose of this review is to
determine if the demand placed on the regional system by that new user will
require a change in the timing of future capital projects that will impact the amount
of the regional wastewater SOC. If this oc~urs, the improvement fee portion of the
charge will be modified to reflect the value of the new schedule of capacity
increasing improvements, and the modified fee will be applied to the development
that caused the need for the modification and to all future development.
Regional Wastewater System Excerptfrom General Methodology, Table 1:
Wastewater - Regional (MWMC)
Costs are based on the type of land
use and, for industrial dischargers
with process flows, on the strength of
discharge. The rate varies by land
use. The rate for a single Residential
unit is $528.86.
The reimbursement portion of the
charge is based on the net local
equity in the regional treatment plant
and other regional assets. The
improvement portion of the charge is
based on current cost of capacity-
enhancing projects to be constructed,
as cOntained in the current Capital
Improvement Program..
The service standards are secondary
wastewater treatment for flows as
defined in MWMC's operating pennit
with DEQ, and capacity enhancing
capital improvements as listed in the
capital improvements plan adopted by
the MWMC.
The MWMC charge is a combined .
reimbursement and improvement fee.
The proportion of the fee that is based
on capacity enhancing improvements
varies over time as projects are
identified, funded, and scheduled.
Charges for new development,
changes in use and existing
development connecting for the first
time are based on the number of Flow
Estimation Units (FEUs), times the
cost per unit of measure. A FEU is
based on the size of development
and the effluent characteristics of
flow, biochemical oxygen demand
and suspended solids for each type of
land use. The charge for changes in
use and expansion of development
already connected to the wastewater
system are based on the net
difference in FE Us created by the
change or expansion. Credit for past
property tax payments for debt
service on the regional facilities will
be deducted from the charge.
