THE COMMISSION DEVIATE FROM THE WRITTEN AGENDA TO CONSIDER AGENDA ITEM NO. 21
AGENDA ITEM NO. 21: Discuss and consider an ordinance increasing water and sewer rates.
Randy Brock, Deputy Utility Director, presented the staffs’ report on a proposal to increase water and sewer rates. Staff has examined potential revenue by projecting 3%, 4%, 5%, 7% and 8% increases. Staff recommended increasing rates by 8%, which will potentially increase revenues by $508,279. Mr. Brock showed five year comparisons of revenue and expenses, addressed critical Shawnee Municipal Authority needs for 2008-09 and discussed the impact proposed increases will have on customers. A single residential customer using 5,000 gallons per month can expect an increase of $2.62 per month. Families using 10,000 gallons will see an increase of $4.91; small business customers using 50,000 gallons will be increased by $22.28 and large business customers using 200,000 gallons will see an increase of $87.80 per month.
Mr. Brock also discussed the current rate analysis being performed by Municipal Finance Systems. MFS will perform an in-depth rate analysis taking into consideration long term needs and determining actual tier levels. They will also prepare an interactive model using Excel which will be formatted to allow changes to basic assumptions and generate various revenue producing scenarios.
Ordinance No. 2352NS was introduced and the title read aloud.
ORDINANCE NO. 2352NS ENTITLED “AN ORDINANCE RELATING TO WATER AND SANITARY SEWER RATES FOR THE CITY OF SHAWNEE, OKLAHOMA, AMENDING SUBSECTIONS 26-26(a) AND (b), ARTICLE II, CHAPTER 26 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF SHAWNEE; INCREASING WATER RATES FOR RESIDENTIAL, NON-RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL USE; AMENDING SECTION 26-27, ARTICLE II, CHAPTER 26 OF THE CODE OF THE CITY OF SHAWNEE; INCREASING SANITARY SEWER RATES FOR RESIDENTIAL, NON-RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL USE; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY.”
After further discussion a motion was made by Commissioner Schrzan, seconded by Commissioner O’Neal, to approve a water and sanitary sewer rate increase of 8% which will become effective July 1, 2008. Motion carried 7-0.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 6: Presentation of FY 2008-09 budget.
City Manager Jim Collard highlighted recent changes made by staff to the FY 08-09 proposed budget. He explained that the previous allocation of the 3rd penny sales tax from Streets to Economic Development has been moved back to the Street Department. Shawnee Economic Development Authority is requesting an additional $96,000 in funding to add two full-time positions. They are also recommending the City have a retail analysis performed that will cost approximately $70,000. Dr. Collard’s recommendation is to fund the SEDF’s additional funds request by using $100,000 earmarked for the Wayfinding implementation this year, and to fund the retail analysis from ending balances. He further stated that this scenario would cause the Capital Fund to carry the total responsibility for the debt service, as well as any funds going to economic development.
Commissioner Schrzan was not in favor of providing any additional money for economic development. In addressing the $100,000 the city currently gives to the SEDF, Commissioner Schrzan would like the City to match the amount of money the SEDF raises through their pledge drive with a cap of $100,000. Additionally, Commissioner Schrzan was not in favor of a retail analysis.
Regarding the retail analysis, Dr. Collard stated that citizens need to define the difference between businesses on the “wish list” and those that are more likely to come to Shawnee. He further stated that a retail analysis will determine the right kind of businesses to come to Shawnee. Commissioner Peterson stressed the importance of sales tax to our City and noted that the retail study would cost less than 1% of current revenues.
Staff will continue to review budget options and $20,000 earmarked for court room renovations will be returned to Capital, potentially to fund a portion of the Wayfinding implementation, which could be done in phases.
The final budget will be presented to Commissioners at the June 2nd meeting.

TECHNICAL CONSIDERATIONS
1. Should the developers wish to ‘sell’ any of the Tracts 1-3 identified in this PUD, the owners will be required to submit a Subdivision Plat or Short Form Plat for approval. This will be required prior to receiving a building permit.
2. The PUD document states that the Conditional Use: Eating Places, other than drive-in, serving beer or alcoholic beverages will be allowed upon approval of the PUD within each of Tracts 1-3. Currently, when ownership changes for a business with a Conditional Use Permit for on-premise or off-premise sell of alcohol or beer, the new owner is required to obtain a new Conditional Use Permit. The Planning Commission and City Commission may wish to consider requiring any future change ownership of such of business to submit application for a new Condition Use Permit.
In either case, the PUD document must add this statement:
“The Conditional Use is restricted to one (1) such use per Tract 1, 2, and 3. Prior to the establishment of such use, the business owner shall 1) meet all City license procedures required to obtain a City Mixed Beverage license or Beer license; 2) the business must obtain and submit copies to the City of Shawnee all State and/or County required alcohol and beer licenses, 3) must meet all State, County, and City requirements to establish the use”.
3. Section 8.2.4 of the PUD documents states: “The following C-3 Automotive and Commercial Recreation District uses will be prohibited.” This list needs to be completed and referred to in Section 8.1.
4. Referencing the PUD document and the issue of shared parking for these 3 tracts and Lots 2 and 8 of Block A Shawnee Mall, prior to receiving a building permit, the applicant must show by number and graphically that the parking requirements for any new building permit application meets the City’s parking requirements. Parking requirements cannot be varied through the PUD process (Section 1101.5.7 of the Zoning Code).
5. Referencing Section 12.6 of the PUD Document, the sign ordinance requirements cannot be varied through the PUD process (Section 1101.5.7 of the Zoning Code). Section 12.6 of the PUD document must be amended to “…less than four (4) square feet…”
6. The City Engineer is reviewing the drainage information submitted with this application.
After due and careful consideration, Ordinance No. 2355NS was introduced and read aloud.
