(A) The city hereby establishes a sewer service charge system whereby all revenue collected from users of the wastewater treatment facilities will be used to affect all expenditures incurred for annual operation, maintenance and replacement and for debt service on capital expenditure incurred in constructing the wastewater treatment works.
(B) Each user shall pay its proportionate share of operation maintenance and replacement costs of the treatment works, based on the user’s proportionate contribution to the total wastewater loading from all users.
(C) Each user shall pay debt service charges to retire local capital costs as determined by the City Council.
(D) Sewer service rates and changes to users of the wastewater treatment facility shall be determined and fixed in a “sewer service charge system” developed according to the provisions of this chapter. The sewer service charge system shall be adopted by resolution upon enactment of this chapter.
(E) Revenues collected for sewer service shall be deposited in a separate fund known as “Utility Fund.” Income from revenues collected will be expended to offset the cost of operation, maintenance and equipment replacement for the facility and to retire the debt for capital expenditure.
