Director Pinto noted that Laurelwood at one point in time <br />had a water franchise and a wastewater franchise. When the <br />county water system became available, we connected the Laurelwood <br />development into the county system and they became county <br />customers at the same time we took over two other franchises in <br />the area. Laurelwood had its own wastewater treatment facility, <br />but at that time, the county was not in a position to offer <br />county service from a regional facility or to take over their <br />operation. Since that time, the County has begun the process of <br />taking over all the smaller facilities with the aim of eventually <br />putting them in some regional facilities. We have negotiated <br />with the owner of the Laurelwood utility and have come to an <br />agreement to take over his wastewater facility, put the customers <br />on the county rate system, and take over the complete operation <br />of the existing wastewater system there with the intent of <br />connecting that into a South County regional system in the <br />future. <br />Commissioner Scurlock asked if there is the requirement for <br />a second public hearing for a rate adjustment since it is a <br />change from their existing structure. <br />Director Pinto advised that the County Attorney's opinion is <br />that it is not required since they are going onto the approved <br />County rate structure, and there is no surcharge involved. If <br />there were a surcharge, it would be different. <br />Commissioner Scurlock understood that the rates based on <br />5,000 gpd would have from an $4.86 to a $7.00 monthly increase. <br />Director Pinto confirmed that and explained that one of the <br />problems with the existing system is that the total approved rate <br />structure has not been charged to the people; so, some of the <br />people there will receive a larger increase only because the <br />utility company hasn't been charging them what is actually <br />allowed. What we have to make our comparison on is the rate <br />structure that is approved in the franchise. <br />30 <br />
