COSA — Cost of Service Analysis
Rate Setting provides for maintenance of infrastructure and delivery of service
What is Cost of Service?
➢ The total annual revenue requirements to be derived from a utility to cover their
total annual costs.
➢ The cost of providing service to the utility's customers must be recovered from
those customers by customer class.
➢ Cost of service analysis allows the matching of rates charged to each customer group
to the cost of serving them.
➢ Recovers costs from users in proportion to their use of the system, and by recognizing
the impact of each class on the system facilities and operations.
Why Cost of Service?
➢ Best practices encourage cost of service as the fundamental benchmark
used for establishing utility rates.
44
The
➢ The methodologies approved by the UAC and City Council in 2019 have been used to
calculate the preliminary rate proposals in this presentation
➢ Water Utility rates change from 2019 to 2020
➢ New discount rates for residential customers
➢ Combined rates for all line sizes for residential customers
➢ No change in commercial structure
➢ Addition of Non-Taxable Federal rates to municipal code as a separate section
