Request for Proposal: Sewer User Charge Cost for Service and Rate Study
The Las Gallinas Valley Sanitary District is requesting proposals from qualified consultants to conduct a sewer user charge cost of service and rate study. The purpose of the study is to assess and evaluate the District’s existing rate structure and rate policies, review current methodology, and make recommendations for potential alternative methods if needed. The broader objective of the study is to provide the necessary information and analysis to the District’s Board of Directors for it to set rates and a rate structure to adequately fund the operating, capital costs and debt service associated with the collection, treatment and disposal of wastewater for the next four years. The study is to include an equitable review of the additional sewer service surcharges imposed on two communities, Captain’s Cove and Marin Lagoon, due to the disproportionate number of pump stations in these two areas.
Proposals deadline is 2:00 p.m. Thursday, January 5, 2023.
