Water and Wastewater Rates

Water and wastewater operation provides for furnishing water and sanitary sewage disposal services to industrial, commercial and residential areas within the town and some surrounding areas.

The water & wastewater fund receives its revenues mostly from user fees, with users receiving a monthly bill based on actual consumption. Other revenues consist of bulk water sales, sewer dumping charges, interest on outstanding bills and other miscellaneous items.

For budget purposes, Water & Wastewater activities are accounted for separately than general fund accounts.

For 2018, staff proposed and Council approved a rate increase of 36 cents or 7.8% on existing rates.

This increase is required to fund required water and wastewater capital projects in 2018 and beyond. Proposed capital projects total $16,648,850 over the next five years, and capacity to fund these projects need to be built into the rate.

For 2018, the increase will be split with approximately two‐thirds funding current year projects and one‐third going towards future projects.

See pages 52‐54 for more information on water and wastewater details.

This includes the arena, program, which could identify areas of enhanced sports fields, parks and the Athabasca Hall. However, the participation in agreements, events, cultural facilities or department is still manually registering participants for all identify service gaps to aboriginal residents. Could result in programs, such as swimming lessons, Summer Fun and committed funding for specific events or areas of FCSS programs. recognition.

The current software program operating by the Community Services Department can only provide a booking system and is not able to expand to include online registrations or online bookings. The program costs approximately $750 per year.

To expand the program to an online registration option, requires upgrading the current software or move to a different program.

Administration annually receives feedback from the community on how frustrating and somewhat archaic our current program registration system is. As an example, the Summer Fun and Extreme Adventures has a one night open registration. Therefore, if a parent is unable to attend the registration night, they may not be able to register their child for the program of their choice. Administration has done the best that can be done with Museum Archives Assistant this method of registration. It is time to move our customer service into the twenty first century with a web based application. The Archives Assistant – would be an intern – is a temporary position for 5 months. Administration is proposing to start with a base application that can expand as our services and facilities expand. There are two main objectives of the position. The first is Therefore, we would upgrade to a new web based cloud to process five collections in the Archival backlog that deal system that would include facility booking and online predominantly with Metis or Indigenous themes or registration.

The candidate will work three days a week at the Museum and Archives and two days a week at Town Hall. This position will help reduce the Archival backlog and make these collections that contain some invaluable photographs of local Metis, Indigenous and early settler families more accessible. It will also help reduce the backlog of material in the Town vaults needing to be digitized for long‐term preservation and accessibility purposes, as well as identifying material which needs to be stored in the Archives.

Capital planning is an important acquisition of a fixed asset, and has a useful life greater management tool that strengthens the linkages between than one (1) year. community infrastructure needs and the financial capacity of the town. The first year in the plan is referred to as the “capital budget” and includes those projects scheduled to be The Town of Peace River faces the challenge of meeting funded in the upcoming fiscal year. The succeeding years’ the needs of its residents for public services and facilities schedule of projects make up the Capital Improvements with increasing costs and relatively fixed revenues. To be Plan and serve as a mechanism for tracking and planning able to effectively set project priorities, the town prepares for future needs. a Capital Improvement Plan (CIP.) Benefits of a Capital Improvement Plan The CIP is updated annually in order to fine‐ tune the capital budget to reflect changing economic conditions and to reflect the need for additional projects or adjust the priority of projects as necessary.

The capital improvement plan is simply that – a plan. As such, projects are subject to change based on new or shifting service needs, special financing opportunities, emergency needs, or other directives or priorities established by Council. Because priorities can change, projects included in outward planning years are not guaranteed for funding.

Capital Improvement Planning The Peace River CIP achieves five major objectives as a component of the Town’s budget and financial planning process: A Capital Improvement Plan is the preparation and 1.

Capital Improvement Plan Funding

The capital improvement plan has been prioritized and projected based on need and the expected levels of funding available to fund the plan. The town’s contributions to the CIP can be defined within three categories:  Funded from operations – projects are partially or fully funded through the current year’s operating budget.  Funded from reserves – projects are partially or fully funded through capital reserves. Capital reserves balances can be funded through contributions from the operating budget, contributions from developers (ie off site levies) or by the sale of capital assets.  Debt – projects are partially or fully funded through the use of long term debt.

Contributions from other governments or organizations can also fund the capital program and include the following categories:  Federal Gas Tax ‐ currently provides $365,700 annually in federal funding to invest in eligible municipal infrastructure, such as water, wastewater and transportation projects.  Municipal Sustainability Initiative ‐ helps support local infrastructure priorities and build strong, safe and resilient communities. Municipal Affairs has allocated approximately $7.6 billion to municipalities since the program launched in 2007. Peace River receives $1,736,000 in 2018.  Other Federal Funding – includes conditional funding from federal grants or government agencies, such as Small Community Fund.  Other Provincial Funding – includes conditional funding from programs offered through provincial departments; examples would be the Alberta Community Resiliency Program (ACRP) or the Alberta Municipal Water/Wastewater Partnership (AMWWP)/ Water for Life program.  Other Revenue – includes funding from other municipalities, third parties or development charges

In preparing the CIP staff followed these guidelines concerning Town contributions.

Long Term Debt Projected Debt

Based on projections, the town’s debt limit may rise to The total current debt obligations are $11,938,791 approximately 64.1% in 2019 (up from 30.7% in 2017) if ($11,938,791 in 2016), as illustrated in the chart below. significant debt is required for the new arena. This will still provide the town with borrowing capacity, and the Total Long Term Debt repayment of this debt has been built into the operating budget.

Other general *projected operating projects in the CIP are projected to incur an additional $3.1 million in debt costs over the next five years, something that can be absorbed in the existing tax rates.

Water and wastewater projects will likely incur significant debt funding over the same period. In 2018 alone $1,790,500 in debt funding is required to complete the approved capital program with the strong possibility of an addition $3.6 million of debt funding required over the balance of the five‐year plan. This funding is putting significant pressure on water rates, and are the reason for the approved increase in 2018.

Future years capital expenditures have been planned to strive to avoid significant increases in tax rate and water rates. With the withdrawal of Federal and Provincial funds from infrastructure programs, which have been mainly cost shared, rate increases may be required to fund the required rehabilitation needs. The forecasted debt to be outstanding is illustrated in the following chart.

The movement towards funding capital projects through the tax rate will stabilize our reliance on debt and leave the town in good financial shape while providing flexibility to fund future projects.

General Surplus/Deficit ‐ ‐ ‐

Based on these forecasts, in 2019 net operating expenditures (departmental revenues less total expenses) are projected to increase by 1.1% and in 2020 increase by 4.0%. To potentially fund these increases, tax revenues could increase by 1.0% in 2019 and 4.1% in 2020. Projected increases to required tax revenue are forecasts only could be mitigated by Council by constraining expenses or through alternative revenue sources, reducing impacts to ratepayers.
