5.3 ERMUSR 12-11-2018 Elk River k Municipal Utilities UTILITIES COMMISSION MEETING TO: FROM: ERMU Commission Troy Adams, P.E.—General Manager MEETING DATE: AGENDA ITEM NUMBER: December 11, 2018 5.3 SUBJECT: 2019 Annual Business Plan (Budget, Schedule of Rates & Fees) ACTION REQUESTED: Adopt the 2019 Annual Business Plan BACKGROUND: In November,the preliminary 2019 Annual Business Plan was presented to the commission. There have been several changes due to finalizing of projects and expenses, and the most significant change is implementation of electric rate reductions at the direction of the commission. DISCUSSION: Electric Budget and Rates There are multiple reasons that supported the commission's consensus to implement electric rate reductions. The top three are as follows: First, in October 2008 ERMU received a ten-year notice for the termination of our wholesale power contract. After five years of research and consideration,the ERMU commission approved joining the Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (MMPA). In October 2018, Great River Energy(GRE) stopped providing power to ERMU and ERMU began receiving power from MMPA. And 2019 will be the first complete budget year where ERMU is receiving power from MMPA. Second, starting in 2015 Connexus Energy has been transferring electric service territory within the corporate boundaries of the City of Elk River to ERMU as part of a negotiated agreement. In 2019, ERMU will be receiving the transfer to the remaining electric service territory areas as identified in the 2015 transfer agreement. In the end,the electric service territory transfer agreement will have resulted in an approximate 20% growth in customers for ERMU.And third, ERMU has recognized significate efficiencies as a result of the 2018 change to multi billing cycles and administratively have been able to reduce staff through attrition lowering fixed costs. The change from GRE to MMPA,the growth in customer base and service territory, and the efficiencies gained through the change to multi billing cycles have put ERMU in a unique and unprecedented situation to lower electric rates. The reset of rates affect consumers differently based on usage. A residential customer with typical electric usage will experience a 5%reduction in electric costs. For commercial customers,the service size and usage can vary drastically which had a varying effect on the rate reset impact. Commercial customers should experience a rate reduction between 5%and 4%. Included new this year in the Schedule of Rates & Fees section of the Annual Business Plan are a Large Demand Electric Service Rate, a Residential Clean Energy Choice Program Rate, and Page 1 of 3 81 Commercial Clean Energy Choice Program Rate; these rate sheets will be submitted for approval in January. Notable items in the electric budget for 2019 are: • 3%cost of living adjustment(COLA) for Office, Field, and Management pay plan groups; 2.85% COLA for Lineworker pay plan group; • Replacement of bucket truck#8 • Delay in replacement of digger truck#10 until 2020; • Shared cost in the replacement for Pickup Truck#14 for Technical Services; • Shared cost in a technology upgrade for the Utilities Conference Room; • Replacement of the decorative downtown street lights; • Electric Service Territory acquisition plant and reintegration costs for Areas 7 & 8 from reserves; • Electric Service Territory acquisition loss of revenue for Areas 1, 2, 3, and 4 from reserves; • Construction of new storage building adjacent to the West Substation from reserves. Water Budget and Rates The water budget and rates reflect the continuation in budgeting philosophy and rate design that continues the direction of shifting to more fixed cost recovery to mitigate revenue recovery volatility related to weather. Additionally,the budget includes a longer consideration of capital improvement projects. This longer vision planning helps to smooth out the impact of water system capital improvement projects as many of these project have substantial cost in ratio to the annual water expense budget. Considering a rolling 5 to 10 year window of capital improvement projects allows for financial planning and budgeting using reserves similar to a sinking fund to buffer and mitigate the volatility of capital outlay. In 2019 there are two larger capital improvement projects,the rehabilitation of the Auburn Street Water Tower and the construction of a new Well #8 building. Because of this planning strategy, the water tower project and the well building project are being funded from reserves rather than issuance of bonds. The proposed 2019 residential water rates are a 2% increase to the 1st Tier and a 2% increase in the basic monthly charge. These rate changes result in a projected 1.72% annual water cost increase for a typical residential customer. This is the equivalent to a$4.90 per year increase for these customers. For commercial customers, it is more difficult to classify typical users. The 1st Tier and basic monthly charges are increased by 2%in the proposed budget. But because the 2nd and 3rd Tiers are not being increased,the amount of usage will result in commercial customer blended rate increase of 2%or less. Notable items in the water budget for 2019 are: • 3% COLA for Office,Field, and Management pay plan groups; • Conservative estimate for usage growth; • Shared cost in the replacement for Pickup Truck#14 for Technical Services; • Shared cost in a technology upgrade for the Utilities Conference Room; • Joint Urban Services District Study with the city funded from trunk funds; • Rehabilitation of the Auburn Street Water Tower; • Construction of new Well #8 building. Page 2 of 3 82 Submitted for approval is the 2019 Annual Business Plan which includes the 2019 Budget and the 2019 Schedule of Rates & Fees. The 2019 fees were already approved by the commission in October and are being presented here unchanged for formal adoption in the Annual Business Plan. The adoption of the of the 2019 Schedule of Rates & Fees through the adoption of the Annual Business Plan shall supersede and replace all previously adopted tariffs, rates, and fees.

Applicable: Existing Customers, or to new Customers receiving all electrical power from ERMU and with demands between 100 kW and 1,500 kW of connected load. Customers with on-site generation greater than 1,500 kW may also qualify, but special terms and conditions may apply on a case by case basis. Customer must agree to operate on-site generation and/or limit load to a mutually agreed to Predetermined Demand Level (PDL) upon notification by ERMU or its designated agent. Customer must be served by ERMU under the Demand Electric Service Rate. Customer must execute a Dispersed Generation Agreement or Interruptible Service Agreement to participate in either program. Customer is subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Agreement. Not applicable to resale, standby or auxiliary service. Special Conditions: Customer must conduct normal business practices between the hours of 3:00 PM to 10:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Customer must provide access to a phone line or reimburse ERMU for all costs associated with providing program interruption notification and remote metering needs. Customer must have the means to operate on-site generation and/or reduce load to the PDL within 30 minutes following notification by ERMU or its agent. Credits apply only during months in which the Customer is fully operational. Customer represents and warrants that interruptible load of at least 100 kW shall be available for interruption upon request by ERMU or its designated agent twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week, three hundred sixty five day per year in order to receive credit. Dispersed Generation/Interruptible Credits: ERMU shall compensate Customer for load interruptions maintained at or below the PDL when requested by ERMU or its designated agent, at the rates indicated below: Monthly Credit/Kw* Summer(June, July, and Aug) $14.00 per kW Winter(Dec, Jan, and Feb) $10.00 per kW Spring/Fall (Mar, Apr, May, Sept, Oct, Nov) $ 6.00 per kW *Credit applies only during months in which Customer coincidental demand is at least 100 kW over the PDL. The difference between Customer's coincidental peak demand at the time of notice to interrupt and the PDL shall be used as a basis for establishing Customer's monthly credit. In months in which no notice to interrupt is given, the difference between Customer's coincidental peak demand and the PDL shall be used as a basis for establishing Customer's monthly demand credit. 121 MORATORIUM EFFECTIVE JUNE 1, 2014 In the event that participating customers are not controlled during the monthly coincidental billing peak demand hour, the customer will receive applicable demand credits only for metered demand that exceeds the PDL and is greater than 100 kW. The demand credit is based on the applicable rates above to the kW difference between the metered demand and the PDL using hourly interval meter data measured one hour prior to the monthly coincidental billing peak demand hour. In the event the participating customer is not operating at the time of the coincidental billing peak there is no credit calculated in that month. The customer must be operating at least one hour prior to the coincidental billing demand peak or the time designated for interruption to receive credit. Example 1: Notice for disconnect or interruption is given at 11:00 a.m. for disconnect or interruption at 3:00 p.m. The participating customer begins shut down at 2:30 and has a peak demand for that month on the day of the interruption at 2:15 with a total load of 350 kW. The customer has a PDL of 50. For this example the participating customer would receive a credit for the difference between the Customer's coincidental peak demand (350 kW) and the PDL (50 kW). The customer would receive a credit for the 300 kW reduction times the seasonal rate indicated above. Example 2: There is no notice to disconnect or interrupt for this example month. The coincidental billing peak occurs on a Tuesday night at 11:00 p.m. The customer had a demand of 45 kW at the time of the coincidental billing peak (11:00 p.m.). In months with no notice the difference between the participating Customer's coincidental peak demand (45 kW) and the PDL (50 kW) shall be used to calculate the monthly credit. The difference between the coincidental billing peak and PDL in this example is -5. Since the participating customer was not operating and did not have any demand in excess of 100 kW to interrupt there is no credit given for this month. In any month in which the difference between the Customer's coincidental peak demand and the PDL is not at least 100 kW, no credit will be given. If the difference between the Customer's coincidental peak demand and the PDL remains less than 100 kW for two or more consecutive months, a new PDL may be established or ERMU shall have the right to terminate the Dispersed Generation or Interruptible Service Agreement. If Customer fails to interrupt load down to the PDL for the specified length of time of the control period in any calendar month a $5.00/kW demand penalty will be added to the Customers bill. The demand penalty will be determined using the maximum uncontrolled kW demand, defined as the highest hourly interval above the PDL recorded during all control periods in the billing month. The Customer will not receive the monthly credit for that month or any succeeding months until performance has been demonstrated to the satisfaction of ERMU personnel. If Customer fails to perform more than two times in any calendar year, ERMU reserves the right to terminate the Agreement.
