9:03 am
years. as a general manager mentioned the mayor's office proposed an adjustment to our municipal fund rate recently and as i recall fwoorgz this commission passed a general fund municipal department fund we're in the second year of that and the proposal before you is to adjust the second for the next 2 years as part of the budget process. the agreement before you today is to increase those general fund rates one penny every year for the next 2 years 0 so it's a half cent increase for the next two years. again, i'm happy to walk through the slides in particular in this if you want to see the impact slides of in our package today shows the impact over the next 2
9:04 am
years. >> will you please put up - >> it will show the counter years in the 2014-2015 columns and for 2015- 2016 and it is a one penny increases for the next 2 years. the rates for most general fund departments have had .5 percent kilowatt one penny increase and there are other depends that are charging other rates that were negotiated over the past few years. this slide it's hard to see on the overheads i can appreciate but the 3.4 millions in the cycle is the impact to the general fund and overall impact for the power rates for next
9:05 am
year is a little bit over 4 million if you include the gas >> if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them. >> commissioners. i'd like to request it general manager kelly make a comment on this item give us a little bit of background, please >> so as charles identified we was in a position to go back to the mayor's office to ask for increasing in the general fund rate because of the capital needs. i want to point out that, you know, within the power enterprise we do have capital projects our joined and projects only power so i want to have a
9:06 am
discussion as far as our rates and stuff by you recognize we operate the system first so we really need to look at that. the other thing i want to point out in the resolution we do make point to the fact that on the bottom of the second package where we have the whereas the commission hereby finds the adaptation of the resolution will find an increase inform the electric rates and charge one e.r. more the following purposes and the last one to obtain funding for the capital projects necessary to maintain the services within the existing services. although it's in there we could add on page 4.
9:07 am
on the resolve it is what state this commission hereby determines that proposed increasing to the electric rates and charges are required for those receiving the electrical services at a fixed rate established by the puc to meet the revenue requirements including revenue, recover to funds that to fund the hetch hetchy capital improvement program so we can add in the resolve paragraph so hopeful that will address the commissioners concerns. commissioner moran >> yes. thank you commissioner
9:08 am
president caen. >> i do there's at least one other place it talks about the purpose of the rates the only piece missing is these rates basically were adapted by commission within the budget as part of the revenue package. which taken as a whole was sufficient to meet our operating and capital needs that's the one thanking thing that's not included if we could quite frankly that's most appropriate but something we'll realize those rates along with, you know, others revenue provisions a budget adapted by commission whatever day we did that the would deem sufficient to meet
9:09 am
our operating capital needs. and so where do you think it's more efficient to put it or do you want us to put it in or add what we've stated and add an additional sentence or in the one of the whereas on page 2? >> city attorney's office. is the point you want to emphasize is that the budget you've submitted and approved was balanced based on the rate increasing and you want that point to be understood when the - >> more specifically that they
9:10 am
were a lot of revenue provisions within the budget and taken as a whole was sufficient to do the job job and my implementation if part of the balanced program is changed then that presented a problem it has to be rebalanced in some way. and obviously that doesn't need to be in there only the implementation >> marine city attorney's office there's a whereas clause from the third top of package 2 whereas the proposed revisions and the rates and fees are more intended to align and to improve the rierp and replacement of
9:11 am
infrastructure. would that be in an appropriate place to reference in the totality of the revenue package that the commission adapted >> that would be a fine place whereas in the whereas place or immediately following whereas. >> okay. i'm going to ask you if you wanted to take a shot of saying exactly what you wanted to say i'm not sure i can draft the whole whereas clause without future clarification if we want to come back >> we can do that when we come out of closed session. >> we could let me suggest whereas on some say commission adapted the budget with the balance of set of provisions
9:12 am
including those rates. >> i have a question would it be appropriate to continue this item when we came back tb closed session and put it into item 13. >> we could continue item 13 after we come back from closed session. >> is that your pleasure. >> okay. so we'll go ahead and do that item 13 we'll suspend until we come back from closed session any public comment on that item? seeing none, public comment is closed madam secretary next item, please. >> public comment on matters to

9:14 am

"where as the proposed rates are one of many puc actions taken as a whole are sufficient to fund adopted by the puc on may 13, 2014:" >> is that your motion?
