T he Distric t rec ently sub mitted an app licatio n fo r $4,500,000 of S G I P fund ing, whic h is the allowable inc entive
fo r the S NR C sys tem. If approved, a res ervation d ep o s it of $225,000 (5% of $4,500,000) will be required in
o rd er to res erve the fund ing fo r the projec t. T he purp ose of this d ep o s it is to increas e the chanc es of projec ts

p ro jects were not being c o mp leted , thus reducing the o verall effec tivenes s of the inc entive p ro gram. T he
res ervatio n depos it will b e refunded when the projec t is complete.
Based o n the experienc e of the S NR C P rojec t Team, the review and approval of the S G I P fund ing ap p licatio n

S c hedule a pub lic hearing for May 12, 2021, to consider the ad o p tion o f water rates and was tewater rates

T he Dis trict’s las t C O S A was c o mpleted in 2019 and pres ented to the Board on January 22, 2020; that C O S A
inc luded b o th Water and Was tewater C ollectio n servic es . After the C O S A was p res ented, the Board ap p ro ved
s ending o ut P ro p 218 notices fo r a p ublic hearing to b e held o n Ap ril 8, 2020. T hat hearing was c anc elled due to
C O VID 19 related res tric tions on pub lic meetings and the unc ertainty about the financ ial impac t of the pand emic

With the pub lic hearing o n hold, s taff b egan working with I B C o ns ulting to broad en the s cope o f the 2019
Wastewater C ost o f S ervice Analys is to inc lude future operatio ns at the S NR C . As with other s ervic es , the

T he up d ated Was tewater C O S A resulted in a rate d es ign that is s imilar to rates p revious ly develo p ed b y the C ity

Multi-F amily residential ac counts are assessed a fixed charge for each dwelling unit served by the ac count,

- high, medium, or lo w - rather than c ategorized in one of 12 s p ecific c us tomer typ es.
T he 2019 Water C O S A was als o up d ated with F Y 2019-20 d ata fo r water cons umption, and actual o p erating

Restructuring
➢Multi-Family Residential (MFR) Customers Should be Charged per Dwelling Unit
and not per Master Account for Fixed Charges
▪Flows from SFR and MFR are similar and can be projected on a per capita basis (just like
indoor water budgets)
➢San Bernardino Treatment Rates Include 13 Different Customer Classes
▪Restructuring includes 4 Non-Residential customer classes for Treatment
▪Patton State Hospital –currently charged based on actual flow and loading factors
▪Low Strength, Medium Strength, and High Strength
▪Provides more flexibility for the District to assign future users / customers based on strength
characteristics as opposed to a specific land use
