5.2. ERMU SR 12-11-2007~/ Elk River Municipal Utilities 13069 Orono Parkway • P.O. Box 430 Elk River, MN 55330-0430 November 29, 2007 1'0: Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission Jerry Takle Jerry Gumphrey Jim Tralle From: Bryan Adams Subject: Utility Rate Increases Phone: 763.441.2020 Fax: 763.441.8099 At the November 13, 2007 Elk River Municipal Utilities commission meeting we adopted the 2008 budget. Great River Energy did adopt the wholesale electric rate as presented at our November commission meeting. Attached is the following information for your review. 1) Proposed Elk River Municipal Utilities 2008 fee and rate schedule. The items highlighted in yellow reflect no change from 2007. 2) Marked up electric and water tariff sheets. 3) Electric sales projections -notice the revenue difference from the residential, commercial and industrial customer classes. 4) Water sales projections. 5) Electric 2007 rate comparison. This survey reflects comparisons from Elk River Municipal Utilities, Excel, Connexus, Wright/Hennepin and the City of Anoka. 6) Water 2007 rates survey from AE2S (unfortunately this survey uses 7,500 gal/mo. as a base and our step increase is at 8,000 gal/mo. and is a large step). 7) Proposed letter to security customers. The proposed rate and fee changes follow through on the large revenue assumptions contained in the budget. I offer the following comments on the above information. a) The street light and security light prices are increased to reflect increased material costs. b) Electric rate increase is 7.2% and reflects an approximate $1,375,700 or our wholesale dollar amount rate increase. As seen from the 2007 electric rate comparison, the residential rate is very comparable to the competition. The commercial is much lower than the competition. This rate could be increased further but due to the low quantities, will have little revenue impact. The industrial rate still remains 5% to 10% higher than the competition. Our dispersed generation rate discussed in agenda item 5.3 will provide some rate relief for customers desiring to participate. c) The street light and security light rates are increased to reflect the average 6 mil. wholesale rate increase. This increase has little revenue effect because most of the increase is in street lights which are donated to the city. d) The water increase is approximately a 6% increase. The second step ($3.50/1,000 gal) is designed to discourage excessive lawn sprinkling. In the past, we charged $20.00 to install and remove irrigation meters (1 ''/z"). To alleviate the extra billing it is easier to increase the monthly fee from $12.00 to $17.00. e) We are proposing a modest increase for our security system rates for the first time in 17 years. We will still be $3 to $10/month below the competition. We are also proposing the following language to the security system contracts to encourage timely payments. If YOUfail to make any payments due in the time allowed for system costs, monitoring, or lease charges, penalties will be assessed and any unpaid balances will be subject to utility disconnection. (If you are an annually billed customer, ERNIU may change your billing cycle to monthly in the case of payment delinquency and any special rates being acquired for annual billing will be forfeited). If YOU are not within ERMU utility service area the disconnection addendum does not apply. As in the past, we will place ads in the Star News informing our customers of these electric and water rate changes. Our security customers will receive the letter included in the attachments.

'- [~ . .r _ ~.~ ~_ ~- - ~ F= ,. _ - ~- E ~ ~ - R. ~ ~~ 1 i' i ~ ~ ~~ We are pleased to present this compilation of 2007 regional water, wastewater, stormwater, and solid waste utility rates. The following pages sununarize the typical residential monthly bills for each utility (excluding solid. waste). The bills are based on 7,500 gallons of water usage (excluding stonnwater), although we realize that some communities either round up or down, based on the volume of water used and wastewater generated. The 7,500 gallons was used to establish a benchmark for comparison purposes. lndividual comparisons of the water, wastewater, stonnwater, and solid waste utilities are presented, along with a typical. total utility bill comparison based on the combined monthly cost of these services (excluding solid waste). Communities surveyed included primarily those serving greater than 5,000 people throughout Minnesota (including the Minneapolis / St. Paul Metro area), North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and Wyoming. You will readily note that the monthly utility costs among communities are highly variable. This can be attributed to a number of factors such as water source, community size, presence/absence of a mechanical wastewater treatment plant, topography, and local policies relative to depreciation and capital improvement funding. The information presented can be used to determine where a community would rank based on a typical monthly residential utility bill with consumption of 7,500 gallons, bearing in mind this variability. -:. This survey was conducted both as support for ongoing revenue adequacy, cost of service, and rate planning analyses underway by AE2S and as a planning resource for communities in the region. On a regional and national scale, utilities are responding to economic challenges through increased operational efficiencies, comprehensive capital improvement planning, and judicious rate planning. Forecasting required rate increases in conjunction with capital improvement planning enables utilities to meet annual operation and maintenance cash flow requirements, as well as provide sufficient funds for needed capital improvements. In terms of rate planning and design, knowledge of the cost of service associated with serving individual customer classes assists in making equitable and justifiable rate planning decisions. Annual review of capital improvement planning, revenue adequacy, and rate planning is a critical step toward achieving and maintaining financial health for your utility. ~'~-/ If there is anything we can do to improve the quality of this survey in the ~ ;:~~~~~" future, please let us know.

It should be noted that some communities include a monthly infrastructure replacement charge as part of the monthly utility billing fee, and some do not.

We have been installing and servicing security systems since 1990 and have appreciated the business and support from our customers as we've grown together over the last 18 years. As our business has grown we have adapted to best suit our customers' needs by utilizing the best monitoring company in the region, and installing quality systems to give you and your family better peace of mind knowing that your home is protected 24 hours a day. But equally important to you and us, we've done all this while offering the lowest monitoring charges that you will find anywhere! We provide our services at these low rates to make sure you can have that peace of mind you deserve in our community. With Growth Comes Change... We are constantly looking for ways to make it easier for you to manage our billings and services. To do this, starting in February 2008 we will be billing all monitoring and service calls along with your utility services (if you receive utilities from us) on one bill, instead of sending separate invoices. If you are already billed monthly for monitoring, you will notice no change. Also, to keep up with supply cost increases, we will be changing our monitoring charges for the first time ever in 17 years. Please see the chart on the back of this letter and take note of the change in your method of billing, which will depend on how you are currently billed. The second chart outlines the rate changes. If you have any questions regarding your account or any other policy changes that may apply to your account please call the respective contact numbers below.
