Memo
To: Mayor/Council
From: Michael R. Couzzo, Jr.~-> --
Date: 6/9/2008
Re: Resolution No. 19-08 - A resolution of the Village Council of the Village of Tequesta, Florida,
adopting a schedule of fees and charges for the provision of water services rendered by the
Village of Tequesta for its citizens and other members of the public; providing that this
schedule of fees and charges shall be available for inspection at all times at the Village Hall
during regular business hours; providing and effective date; and for other purposes.
After months of consideration and analysis by staff and our consultants a schedule of rates and
charges has been finalized for your consideration. Initially a 24% rate increase was proposed for the
upcoming year. The increase was based upon water restrictions resulting in reduced revenues, system
wide projected repair and replacement needs, and the future expansion of the water facility. A review
of the consultants' findings and discussions with our utility engineers resulted in a reduction in the
proposed rate increase from 24% to 12% in the upcoming year.
In these uncertain economic times when it appears that every day consumers are faced with the
bad news of increasing costs at all levels, every effort must be made to avoid increasing rates.
I believe our consultants have worked hard and have produced a proposal that they feel meets
the upcoming needs of the utility, a difficult task as it involves a number of variables.
As I continue to review the data and reflect on the additional impact it will have on our residents,
I respectfully request that the proposed legislation be deferred to the regularly schedule Village Council
meeting in October, 2008.
The additional time will allow me the opportunity to better assess the impact of the mandatory
water restrictions (and monitor any changes during the rainy season), and evaluate the proposed
capital improvements and alternatives.
I appreciate your consideration of my request, and know it is my desire to minimize or eliminate
any rate increase.
