EXECUTIVE SUMMARY  The goal of a rate study is to ensure the long‐term financial health of the utility enterprise funds.  The City of Edina conducts periodic updates to its utility rate study with the last update being  completed in 2021. The recommendations from the 2021 study were conceptually approved by  the Council in a work session, but implementation was delayed due to billing software  conversion. This rate study revisits the rate structure provided in the 2021 update and seeks to  achieve climate goals, reduce customer complaints, and accommodate updated capital cost  estimates. The utilities are capital intensive operations with over $175 million in capital costs  estimated for 2022‐2031, compared to $149 million estimated in the 2021 update over the same  timeframe. The rate study assumes the City will continue the practice of financing the majority  of capital costs.    This rate study reviews each utility fund to ensure the recommended rates and fees will  support operations, capital costs, capacity expansion projects, address the City’s climate goal  of water conservation, and maintain adequate cash reserves. This report details the findings  and recommendations for each utility, provides an estimated 2023 utility bill for sample  homeowners and businesses, and reviews connection fees. Moreover, the rate study provides  a recommendation for the 2023 user rates and annual increases thereafter for the water,  sanitary sewer, and storm water utilities as well as connection fees for the water and sanitary  sewer utilities.    This rate study aims to find solutions to the increased capital costs and unique challenges each  utility is facing, which is summarized below.     Water Fund – The City’s existing tiered rate structure does not actively promote water  conservation. Under the current structure, 95% of residential accounts have all their water use  fall within the first two tiers of the rates. The current structure thus lacks an adequate price  signal to customers to monitor their usage more closely, and results in similar fees being  collected for irrigation and indoor water use.    Sewer Fund – The single biggest expense in the sewer fund is the Metropolitan Council  Environmental Services (MCES) disposal fees, which is 76% of the 2022 operating budget.  When these fees increase, it puts financial pressure on revenues to keep pace. In addition, the  current rate structure does not promote conservation and winter quarter average billing is  generating complaints from customers. City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 3 Storm Water Fund – The City is committed to adequately maintaining its stormwater  infrastructure. In addition, the City needs to undertake flood mitigation projects over the next  20 years to address flooding risk.  To balance affordability with capital needs, this rate study  assumes one $10 million flood mitigation project from 2022‐2031, the timeframe of this study.      To address these challenges, Ehlers recommends restructuring water and sewer rates for 2023  and provides the following recommendations for annual increases to utility rates and  connection fees.    Utility Fee 2023 Rate Increases Annual Rate Increases  Beginning in 2024  Water User Rates Rate Restructure 5%  Sewer User Rates Rate Restructure 6%  Storm Water Rates 8% 8%  Water Connection Fee 3% 3%  Sewer Connection Fee 28% 22% in 2024; 5% thereafter    II. BACKGROUND INFORMATION  Most City operations, such as public works, public safety, administration, and parks are  accounted for under governmental funds, primarily embedded in the General Fund. These  operations rely on a variety of revenues including property taxes, intergovernmental aid, and  charges for services.    Municipal utility funds are considered enterprise funds. They are intended to be operated like  a private enterprise in which the fee revenue pays for all operations and capital expenses. City  utility operations include four funds: water, sewer, storm water, and recycling. Together these  utilities are over a $27 million operation. In the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report  (ACFR), enterprise funds are segregated funds, recognizing the unique purpose and revenue  streams of these functions.    In addition to the ACFR segregating the enterprise funds, the City’s Capital Improvement Plan  (CIP) distinguishes between projects that will be funded by the enterprise funds and those to  be funded by governmental funds.  City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 4 It should be noted that the City currently has one accounting fund for water, sanitary sewer,  storm water and recycling. For this analysis, we segregated the revenues and expenses for  each utility, and treated each as a separate fund. By doing so, we can ensure that each utility  will recover its own costs. For purposes of this study, we refer to each segregated utility as its  own fund.  III. METHODOLOGY AND ASSUMPTIONS  As part of this year’s study, Ehlers prepared a 10‐year cash flow projection for the water,  sewer, and storm water utility funds through the year 2032. This projection examines  anticipated cash flows in future years and estimates the user rate increases necessary to meet  all financial obligations of the utility funds while maintaining adequate cash reserves.    The cash flow analysis method determines future revenue requirements by incorporating  operating and maintenance expenses, transfer payments, current and future debt service and  anticipated future capital projects. We also include future growth estimates in the model for  calculating connection fees. The primary financial inputs in the development of the analysis  were the City’s audited financial statements, budget documents, annual water billing data for  2019, and the City’s latest Capital Improvement Plan. This study assumes approximately 1.96  billion gallons per year of water consumption based on actual consumption over a 12‐month  period spanning 2019 and 2020. The City elected to use billing data from 2019 and 2020  because it reflected “normal” rainfall and excluded the COVID‐19 pandemic which may have  skewed the data.    The cashflow projections include the following assumptions:   3‐5% annual inflation on operating costs.   4% annual inflation on MCES disposal charges.   Growth is 175 and 119 new SAC units per year for the Southdale and Cahill areas  respectively for connection fees.   We did not assume any additional usage from growth for our user revenue calculations.  This is based on previous years’ experience with growth and minimal to no additional  usage being realized city‐wide, likely as the result of more efficient appliances.      City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 5   Funding capital improvements for a redeveloping community as well as replacing aging utility  infrastructure drive the need for adequate utility revenue. City staff developed a 10‐year  Capital Improvement Plan for each utility (See Appendix A). All capital costs listed in Appendix  A assume historic inflation levels. If current inflation levels continue the costs will be  understated.     IV. WATER FUND  There are three components to the City’s water utility revenues:   Fixed Charges   Usage Fees   WAC Fees (Water Access Charge or connection fees)  Fixed charges are a quarterly fee based on the size of the water meter. The fixed charge is  established to recover certain administration expenses, such as meter reading and billing, plus  a portion of distribution costs. The 2022 fixed charge for single family residential accounts is  $24.72 per quarter for a three‐quarter inch meter and it increases as the size of the meter  increases.    Usage fees are based on the metered use of water. Water is sold in units and currently one  unit represents 1,000 gallons. The billing structure for most Edina residents is tiered so that  the rate per unit depends on the amount of water used per quarter. Water usage in the  Morningside area is charged at a flat rate per unit. The Morningside rate is set at an amount  sufficient to cover the cost of purchasing water from the City of Minneapolis which is the  largest component of the Morningside rate. The other components are a pro‐rata share of the  City of Edina’s water distribution costs not included in the fixed charge. The current and  proposed tier structure can be seen in Table 1.    Water access charges (WAC) are paid by developers of new homes and businesses when a  building permit is pulled. Developers do not pay connection fees when they are replacing an  existing unit, as is the case for residential tear downs and rebuilds. The connection fees help  pay for the capital costs of serving the new properties. The City of Edina currently charges  $2,960 per sewer availability charge (SAC) unit for new development. We recommend the City  increase its WAC fee 3% annually as discussed later in this report.  City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 6 The rate study proposes making tiers 1 and 2 smaller in 2023 to promote conservation. As  shown in Figure 1, under the current structure, only 17% of residents are outside of the first  tier and as a result are the only users that receive a price signal to monitor their consumption  more closely. As shown in Figure 2, under the proposed 2023 structure, 58% of residents will  receive a price signal. In tandem with the increased rates in tiers 2 and 3, the new structure  will incentivize less consumption.     Figure 1. Current 2022 Tiers and Residential Accounts by Usage  Figure 2. Proposed 2023 Tiers and Residential Accounts by Usage      City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 7 The proposed changes to the tier structure, as shown in Table 1, are estimated to generate a  3.5% increase in water revenue in 2023 with low volume residential customers paying less and  medium and high volume customers paying more, as shown in Table 2. The recommended  annual rate increase in 2024 and beyond is 5%.

$ 2.71 Up to 50,000 gallons $ 2.42 5.0% Tier 2 Over 26,000 gallons $ 3.60 50,001 to 200,000 gallons $ 3.02 5.0% Tier 3 N/A Over 200,000 gallons $ 3.77 5.0% Irrigation Tier 1 Up to 26,000 gallons $ 3.60 Up to 12,000 gallons $ 3.68 5.0% Tier 2 Over 26,000 gallons $ 5.63 Over 12,000 gallons $ 6.08 5.0% *Fixed charges (i.e., meter fees) are proposed to increase 5% annually beginning in 2023.    Water use varies based on personal usage, lot size, irrigation, and weather. In 2019 to 2020  the City’s residential customers used an average of 13,700 gallons in the winter quarter and  27,500 gallons in the summer quarter, with the average quarterly usage being 19,200 gallons.  Table 2 shows sample water bills for customers at three different consumption levels.    Table 2. Residential Customer Comparison ‐ Proposed Tier Restructure      City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 8 In addition to promoting conservation, the new structure and annual increase in rates will help  pay for the reinvestment in the City’s aging water system as well as the construction of a new  water treatment plant. Between 2022 and 2031, the City plans to spend $62 million on capital  improvements from the water utility fund (see Appendix A). The table below outlines some of  the major water capital projects in the City’s capital improvement plan.  Table 3. Water Utility Major Capital Improvements  Major Projects         Year        Amount

Capital and annual debt expenditures comprised 59% of the total cash expenditures in the  Water Fund in 2021 as shown in Figure 3. These are fixed costs that do not fluctuate with  consumption; therefore, the revenue stream needs to be reliable from year to year.    Figure 3. 2021 Water Expenditures (Excluding Depreciation)  Operating  41% Debt 30% Capital 29%

SEWER FUND  There are two components to the City’s sewer utility revenues:   Usage Fees   SAC Fees (Sewer Access Charge or connection fees)  Currently, usage fees are based on the metered use of water in the winter quarter, or the  current minimum of 12,000 gallons, whichever is greater.    Winter quarter averaging is used for single‐family residential properties to avoid billing for  irrigation usage. Run‐off due to water used for irrigating is part of the storm water collection  system and should not be part of the sewer charge. In some cases, the winter quarter average  can be greater than the actual usage in the spring and summer months; an example of what  can cause this is heavy usage in the winter with guests in town for the holidays. The City  receives a substantial number of complaints from homeowners who are paying winter quarter  consumption when their actual consumption is less.    The minimum charge provides revenue stability for the sewer fund. In addition, residents who  travel to warmer climates in the winter still incur the minimum charge when no water is used.  In smaller households the minimum is sometimes more than actual usage.    Sewer access charges (SAC) are paid by developers of new homes and businesses when a  building permit is pulled. Developers do not pay connection fees when they are replacing an  existing unit, as is the case for residential tear downs and rebuilds. The connection fees help  pay for the capital costs of serving the new properties. The City of Edina currently charges  $1,810 per sewer availability charge unit for new development. We recommend the City  increase its SAC fee 28% in 2023, 22% in 2024 and 5% annually thereafter as discussed later in  this report.    The rate study proposes two structural changes to address customer complaints:  1. A reduction in the sewer minimum to 8,000 gallons in 2023; and  2. Charging the lesser of the Winter quarter or actual, but not less than the minimum.    City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 10 The proposed changes maintain a sewer minimum for revenue stability, make sewer charges  more affordable for low volume customers, as seen in Table 5, and charges the winter quarter  average or actual usage, whichever is less. The 6% recommended rate increase in 2024 and  beyond is 1% higher than last year’s rate study to account for increased capital costs and to  assist in funding new infrastructure related to the Cahill expansion. The current and proposed  rates can be seen in Table 4.    Table 4. Current Sewer Utility Rates compared to Proposed 2023 Rates  SEWER 2022 Proposed 2023* Annual Increase Beginning in 2024 Residential (including Morningside) All Usage $ 6.30 All Usage $ 6.86 6.00% Minimum of 12,000 gallons Minimum of 8,000 gallons Winter Quarter Averaging Lesser of Winter Quarter or Actual, but no less than 8,000 gallons Multifamily All Usage $ 6.30 All Usage $ 6.86 6.00% Minimum of $68.05 for each Minimum of 8,000 gallons unit over 4 units Comm/Ind and Sewer Only All Usage $ 6.30 All Usage $ 6.86 6.00% Minimum of 12,000 gallons Minimum of 8,000 gallons *26% of customers will pay minimum in Winter quarter.    Table 5. Residential Customer Comparison – Proposed Lower Minimum      City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 11 The City of Edina participates in the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES)  sewer system. This means that the City’s sanitary sewer system flows to the MCES treatment  plant and the City receives a bill from the MCES for the service. The City does not maintain its  own sanitary sewer treatment plant. MCES allocates the cost of the metro area sanitation  system to user Cities based on their relative percent of flow into the system. Currently the  MCES charge for services is budgeted at $5,906,199 in 2022 and is the single biggest expense  in the City’s sewer fund, comprising almost 76% of budgeted operating expense in 2022,  excluding depreciation. This study assumes future increases to the MCES charge for service  will be 4% per year.    The second biggest expenditure in the sewer fund is capital purchases, most of which are  designated for replacing the sewer mains under road reconstruction projects. Between 2022  and 2031, the City plans to spend $48.5 million on capital improvements from the sewer fund,  including the Cahill capacity expansion project (see Appendix A). The table below outlines  some of the major sewer capital projects in the City’s capital improvement plan.    Table 6. Sewer Utility Major Capital Improvements  Major Projects         Year        Amount   Street Improvement Program Annual Average $1,400,000   Trunk Capacity Expansion 2023‐2028 $22,900,000   Lift Station 6 Rehabilitation 2022 $8,000,000   72nd Street Sewer Line Upsize 2027 $1,600,000  Capital, MCES, and debt expenditures comprised 92% of the total cash expenditures in the  Sewer Fund in 2021 as shown in Figure 4. These are fixed costs that do not fluctuate with  consumption; therefore, the revenue stream needs to be reliable from year to year.              City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 12 Figure 4. 2021 Sewer Expenditures (Excluding Depreciation)    VI. STORM WATER FUND  The storm water fund was created to pay for the management of storm water runoff in  concert with the local watershed. City projects include repair and maintenance of storm water  infrastructure such as catch basins, manholes, pipes, and sediment collection devices. Single  family residential properties pay a fixed quarterly fee. Commercial property owners are  charged based on residential equivalency unit, acreage, and the storm water rate. Over time,  capital costs for the storm water system have increased to meet increasingly stringent state  standards intended to improve water quality. In addition, there are storm water related  construction costs in connection with street reconstruction projects and flood mitigation.    To fund the capital improvements and on‐going repairs and maintenance the City will need to  generate more storm water revenue. We propose an annual 8% increase in 2023 and  thereafter as shown in Table 7. The recommended rate increase is consistent with last year’s  rate study.    Table 7. Current Storm Water Utility Rates compared to Proposed 2023 Rates  STORM WATER 2022 Proposed 2023 Annual Increase Beginning in 2024 Residential (including Morningside) Per Residential Lot $43.85 Per Residential Lot $47.36 8.0% Operating 8% Debt 13% Capital 21% MCES 58% Sewer Expenditures 2021 $10.2 Million City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 13 When considering increased storm water rates, it is necessary to balance affordability and  capital needs. With the proposed 8% annual increase in storm water rates, the City will be able  to fund approximately $10 million in flooding mitigation projects every eight years. With this  annual increase, it will take approximately 40 years to accomplish the City’s $50 million in  flood projects unless other funding is secured.     The 8% annual increase allows the City to spend $64 million on capital improvements from the  storm water fund in the next ten years, including the aforementioned $10 million in flood  mitigation projects (see Appendix A). The table below outlines some of the major storm water  capital projects in the City’s capital improvement plan.  Table 8. Storm Water Utility Major Capital Improvements  Major Projects         Year        Amount   Street Improvement Program Annual Average $3,100,000   Flooding Mitigation To be determined $10,000,000   Flooding Protection Strategy ‐ Morningside 2022 $14,000,000  Capital and debt expenditures comprised 78% of the total cash expenditures in the Storm  Water Fund in 2021 as shown in Figure 5. These are fixed costs that do not fluctuate with  consumption; therefore, the revenue stream needs to be reliable from year to year.  Figure 5. 2021 Storm Water Expenditures (Excluding Depreciation)  Operating  22% Debt 25% Capital 53% Storm Water Expenditures 2021 $7.35 Million City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 14 VII. CONNECTION FEES  The City of Edina currently charges water and sewer connection fees totaling $4,770 per sewer  availability charge unit for new development. The connection fees help pay for the capital  costs of serving new properties. Growth in the Southdale area and expansion projects in the  Cahill area are requiring an investment in an additional water treatment plant and other water  and sewer infrastructure. The estimated costs and sewer availability charge units are show in  Table 9.    Table 9. Project Areas and Estimated Utilities Expansion Cost and New SAC Units          Project Area         Estimated Cost     Estimated New SAC Units per Year  Southdale Area $11.4 Million 175  Cahill Area* $13.1 Million 119  *Cahill expansion projects will be constructed in 2023‐2024 with assumed growth in that area  to begin in 2027.    To pay for the improvements needed to accommodate the Cahill area growth from sewer  connection fees alone, the fees would need to increase 50% in 2023, 37% in 2024, and 27% in  2025. This level of fee increase may deter the development needed to pay for the  improvements.  Instead, this study recommends increasing sewer usage fees half a percent  more annually than otherwise needed to pay for sewer costs and increasing the water  connections fees 3% annually and sewer connection fees 28% in 2023, 22% in 2024 and 5%  annually thereafter as shown in Table 10.    Table 10. Proposed Connection Fees  WATER SEWER TOTAL 2022 $ 2,960 $ 1,810 $ 4,770 2023 $ 3,049 $ 2,317 $ 5,366 2024 $ 3,140 $ 2,826 $ 5,967 2025 $ 3,234 $ 2,968 $ 6,202 2026 $ 3,332 $ 3,116 $ 6,448 2027 $ 3,431 $ 3,272 $ 6,703 2028 $ 3,534 $ 3,436 $ 6,970 2029 $ 3,640 $ 3,607 $ 7,248 2030 $ 3,750 $ 3,788 $ 7,537 2031 $ 3,862 $ 3,977 $ 7,839 City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 15 Even with the proposed increases, the City of Edina’s connection fees remain competitive as  shown in Figure 6.    Figure 6. Connection Fees for a 150‐Unit Multifamily Project   City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 16 VIII. CASH RESERVES  The proposed rate increases will maintain the financial health of the funds. Each graph  compares the projected cash balance in the fund (in orange) with the City’s target cash reserve  (in blue). The target cash reserve for each utility is set at an amount necessary to provide  adequate operating reserves plus fund next year’s debt service and a portion of capital  projects. Figures 7‐9 show the City’s projected ending cash compared to target cash reserves  for each utility. See Appendix B for the full 10‐year cash flow analyses for the City’s utility  funds.    Figure 7. Projected Water Fund Cash Balances                  City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 17 Figure 8. Projected Sewer Fund Cash Balances  Low ending cash in 2022 is the result of paying for lift stations with cash. Lower ending cash in  later years is the result of funding utilities expansion related to Cahill area growth.  Figure 9. Projected Storm Water Fund Cash Balances  City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 18 IX. COMMUNITY COMPARISON  Each community has different demands on its utility systems that make it unique – different  growth patterns, groundwater sources, soil conditions, usage patterns and infrastructure.  Therefore, one should set rates based on documented need, as the City of Edina does through  its periodic rate studies. Nevertheless, it is helpful to know how the City compares to  surrounding communities because residents and businesses often expect to pay similar rates.  In Edina, water use varies significantly based on personal usage, lot size, irrigation, and  weather. The data used for this analysis shows an average usage range of 13,700 gallons in the  winter quarter to 27,500 gallons in the summer quarter, with the average quarterly usage  being 19,200 gallons. Figures 10‐11 compare utility bills for a low volume and medium volume  residential customer.   Figure 10. Quarterly Bill Comparison of Neighboring Communities – Low Volume Residential              City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 19 Figure 11. Quarterly Bill Comparison of Neighboring Communities – Medium Volume Residential    Under the current and proposed tier structure the low volume user’s water usage is all being  charged at the tier 1 rate which results in a reduced bill in 2023 due to a reduced tier 1 rate.  Under the current tier structure, the medium volume user’s water usage is all being billed at the  tier 1 rate, and under the proposed 2023 tier structure 12,000 gallons will be billed at the tier 2  rate which results in a higher 2023 bill. The proposed tier structure provides more customers  with a price signal and promotes water conservation while maintaining affordability for essential  indoor water use.                  City of Edina, MN  Utility Rate Study Analysis 20 X.
