Chairman Terry recognized Gordon Chappell, Utilities Comptroller,
who presented a graphic study to show the necessity for the rate increase for
water in the County. He recommended the 25% increase, beginning April 1, 1980
as proposed, in order to continue service and cover the cost of new construction
projects in the area. Mr. Chappell explained that the proposed increase is
equal to 4% per year since there has not been an increase since 1974.
IN RE:
WATER RATE
I
At this point,Chairman Terry asked for comments from the public on
the proposal.
Mrs. Lawrence Mundy asked if new water lines are to be installed in
the Starmount area. Mr. Rossie, Director, Public Service Authority, stated
that it was in last year's budget, and that it will take approximately three
more months to get the project going. Supervisor Park stated that this is one
of the reasons for the proposed rate increase.
An unidentified citizen from the Summerdean area stated that last
year he was on the City of Roanoke water system with good services, and that
they had a surplus of water funds but since being annexed, after only three
months he finds the County asking for a rate increase and he was very much
opposed to such an increase.
Mr. Rossie, at the request of Chairman Terry, gave a brief background
report as to when and where the various water sources were acquired by the
County. He also referred to the inflated cost of materials with which to
construct new projects.
Mrs. Mildred Mitchell from the Sun Valley area, expressed her
opposition to the increase.
Mr. Steve Emick stated that he would like to know specifically what
the increased rate would be used for. He was told by the Board the entire
25% increase would be used for operating expenses.
Mr. Jimmy Holland, S. W. County, stated that his brother, who is a
building contractor, has not had an increase of 25% for his building costs, and
feels that this amount is out of line.
Supervisor Myers moved that the base rate be $2.00 per month and
$1.15 for each additional 1,000 gallons, rather than $1.00 which would amount to
an increase of 15%.
Mr. Rossie stated that the proposal of 15% would affect proposed
projects for water service.

Mr. Jack Wright, Auditor for the Public Service Authority, suggested
that if a 15% rate is enacted that it also be placed on the base rate in order
to secure more revenue.
Supervisor Park suggested that the base rate be $2.25 and $1.15 for
each additional 1,000 gallons.
Supervisor Johnson stated we would need another rate increase if the
15% proposal was adopted, therefore, it would mean another public hearing on the
matter again next year.
Supervisor Matthews moved to amend the advertised ordinance to read
that the base rate for residential customers be $2.25 and $1.15 for each
additional 1,000 gallons, which motion was adopted by the following recorded
vote.
AYES:
Supervisors Myers, Park, Matthews, Terry and Johnson.
NAYS:
None
At this point, 8:35 p.m., Chairman Terry called for a short recess.
At 8:45 p.m. the Board reconvened in open session.
Chairman Terry asked if there were any questions regarding the
commercial rate proposal. No one responded.
Gordon Chappell, Utilities Comptroller, explained that the current
base rate for commercial customers is $5.00 and the proposed increase is $6.25
base rate for 3,000 gallons and $1.25 for each additional 1,000 gallons.
Supervisor Park made a motion that the rates remain as proposed; which
was adopted by the following recorded vote.
AYE S :
Supervisors Myers, Park, Matthews, Terry and Johnson.

MISCELLANEOUS CHARGES
Mr. Chappell explained the purpose for each of the following
miscellaneous charges:
(1) Re-check reading of meter--$5.00--This charge is made to the
customer when he requests the County to re-read his meter and it is found to
be in order.
(2) Investigation for 1eakage--$10.00--This amount is charged to the
customer when he requests the County to check for a leak in his water lines and

none is found.
(3) Meter Test--$5.00--This amount is charged when a customer
requests the meter to be checked to see if it registers properly and said
meter is found to be in proper working condition.
(4) Round trip for meter turn-off/turn-on for non-payment--$25.00--
In the event a customer fails to pay his monthly payment for water service, and
the County turns off the meter to his residence, then this charge is made for
the trip to and from the water meter for such action.
(5) Special request to discontinue or turn on service for other
than non-payment--$7.00 per trip--This charge is for customers who might
temporarily turn off water to a residence, such as rental property.
(6) Re-set meter if meter was pulled for non-payment--$20.00--
In the event that a customer, whose water service has been discontinued by the
County, should turn on the meter himself, the County might in that instance pull
the meter to avoid such action by the customer, and it would then charge a
$20.00 fee for re-setting the meter.
(7) Annual charge of $150.00 per hydrant to be assessed by the
County Water Department.
The question was asked by the Board who would pay
this charge and Mr. Chappell responded that owners of privately owned hydrants
would be charged.

be adopted as stated; said motion was adopted by the following recorded vote:
AYES:
