Prev. Date: 09/26/95 07/01/99 05/17/05 Town Accountant 2 Public Works - Enterprise Funds FY13 Budget Overview The Board of Selectmen will vote on new water, sewer and storm waters rates at an upcoming hearing prior to Town Meeting. The new rates will be effective with the September 2012 billing. Storm Water Enterprise Fund The Storm Water division consists of some activities conducted under the general fund budget, and some in the enterprise fund budget. As a whole, they are responsible for the construction, maintenance and repair of all catch basins and drainage systems. As established by Town Meeting several years ago, this Enterprise Fund conducts storm water activities that were not being done by the general fund. Federal regulations continue to bring new and expensive costs to the Town. The $40 annual charge for a single family home produces almost $400,000 in annual revenues (including commercial customers that pay per square foot of impervious surface). Thus rates will not need to change for FY13, and the reserve fund ($376,011) will not be needed to support this budget. (IY3 Storm Water Enterprise Fund Two large scale ($4.0 million Saugus River & $2.2 million Aberjona River) capital projects that have been in the Storm Water capital improvements plan since inception have been pushed out to. FY18. The design and permitting capital costs for these projects are in FY15 and FY16. This budget does not yet forecast that new federal requirements will add any additional large scale projects.

Current reserves are well in excess of this level: Recent Reserves History Excess reserves offer the flexibility to take advantage of mid- year opportunities, such as the decision by November 2011 Town Meeting to use $250,000 to advance the Howard Street project forward in order to qualify for an interest -free loan. This saved the water fund over $100,000 in future interest costs. Reserves Jan.2012 10% Target Level Water $1,011,630 $592,217 Sewer $1,187,837 $540,689 Combined $2,199,467 $1,132,906 Recent Reserves History Excess reserves offer the flexibility to take advantage of mid- year opportunities, such as the decision by November 2011 Town Meeting to use $250,000 to advance the Howard Street project forward in order to qualify for an interest -free loan. This saved the water fund over $100,000 in future interest costs. V As the previous chart shows, water reserves hit a recent low in 2008 -2009 coincident with some one -time costs associated with closing the water treatment plant and shifting the water supply to the MWRA. As the chart below shows, despite the use of reserves, the change in the combined rates during these two years was over +10 %. In 2010 some legal environmental settlements were deposited in the water reserve fund and in 2011 some surpluses from past capital projects were closed out and added to the sewer reserve fund, resulting in fund balances well over the 10% target. For the past three years, the continued use of excess reserves has kept combined rates below +5 %. According to the MWRA, their FY13 budget will be the last of a three -year commitment to keep their rate increases low during difficult economic times. They cut spending, restructured debt, and temporarily suspended commitments to growing liabilities over this period.

N Actual FY12 Rates MWRA Reading Combined +3.9% +4.9% Water +1.3% +1.9% Sewer +5.1% +6.2% Looking Ahead: Water and Sewer Almost one year ago the MWRA forecast a 3.9% combined system -wide rate increase for FY12 and FY13, followed by almost +8% for several years afterwards. For FY13 we will estimate MWRA Water charges at +4% and MWRA Sewer charges at +6% for Reading, in line with current usage patterns and the MWRA methods for calculating rates. Budget adjustments may need to be made as actual rates are announced. Note that each fund is highly exposed to these increases, as 30% of the water budget and 77% of the sewer budget are MWRA charges. In addition, the ten -year Reading Sewer Capital plan faces some increases beginning in FY14 and described in more detail in the next section. Here is the forecast for the use of Reserves and resulting net Water and Sewer budgets over the next four years: If reserves are used in this manner and not replenished, at the end of FY16 they will be slightly above the 10% target levels, and no longer available to stabilize rates. Note that actual water and sewer rates are affected by additional factors, such as volume of usage and payment collections. Conclusion Sewer budgets & rates are expected to climb faster than water budgets & rates during the next several years as Reading is more exposed to any MWRA increases in this fund, and local sewer capital needs have been identified. Short term use of reserves to reduce rates should take these longer term factors into consideration. w Reserves Used Water Net Reserves Used - Sewer Net Combined Net Budgets FY12 $550k none FY13 $75k +6.1% none +2.9% +4.5% FY14 $150k -2.9% $150k +14.5% +5.0% FY15 $125k +2.7% $100k +7.6% +5.6% FY16 $150k +6.3% $150k +6.8% +6.6% 4- rs +12% +35% If reserves are used in this manner and not replenished, at the end of FY16 they will be slightly above the 10% target levels, and no longer available to stabilize rates.

Non -MWRA expenses are funded to adjust to recent trends. Many expenses have been reduced, while the retirement assessment has increased to fund a disability case. As mentioned, the MWRA charge is estimated to rise at 4 %. One large capital project for FY13 is $550,000 of repairs to the Auburn Hill water tank. Water main projects for Haverhill and Howard Streets will continue and a new one for the H. Street loop (Ivy St.) is added. Debt service declines as old water main debt is repaid in FY12, and no new debt is planned until a $1 million water main project for South - West - Gleason in FYI 6.

The specific functions are: maintenance and repair of 100 miles of sewer mains and 12 pumping stations; respond to customer complaints for sewer backups and drainage problems. As there were no reserves used in FY12 or suggested in FY13, the gross and net sewer budgets are identical. The chart below summarizes the FY13 proposed budget: Sewer Fund FY12 FY13 Change Wages $267,908 $275,136 +2.7% Exp (non -MWRA) $396,300 $396,759 +0.1% MWRA Expense $4,164,476 $4,414,350 +6.0% Capital $157,000 $130,000 -17.2% Debt $162,206 $85,800 -47.1% Other $259,004 $264,198 +2.0% TOTAL $5,406,894 $5,566,243 +2.9% There are no changes in FTEs and wages are increased to reflect a 2% step (non- union) or at a level consistent with union contracts. Non -MWRA expenses are funded to adjust to recent trends. As mentioned, the MWRA charge is estimated to rise at 6 %. W Starting in FY14, generic sewer main projects are added to the capital plan, as recent inflow and infiltration repairs have identified areas that need further attention. Also beginning in FY14 are the first two (West St. $300k and Joseph's Way $270k) of twelve sewer station repairs, identified by a recently completed study. The projects are listed in departmental priority order. However, other considerations may rearrange this order - for example, developer offset funds for the Sturges station is expected, and when received my move this project ahead of the FYI planned date. Debt financing for all twelve of these projects were considered but discarded for several reasons. First, for the $4.16 million in anticipated capital repairs, full debt interest costs might run at $1.14 million, whereas the plan as listed only has one small debt item expected to cost $0.11 million. This $lmillion difference in cost is significant. Second, as a practical matter repairs on all twelve stations would need to be spread out over a few years. Done as presented in seven years is no disadvantage when compared to done in two or three years if debt financed. Third, doing these projects on a pay -as- you -go basis allows for flexibility both in terms of capital work and financing, in case other priorities arise. fi 01/13/2012 12:34 blelacheur PROJECTION: 20132 SEWER (TOWN OF READING NEXT YEAR / CURRENT FY13 Enterprise Funds 2011 2012 ACTUAL ORIG BUD YEAR BUDGET ANALYSIS 2012 REVISED BUD 2012 ACTUAL 2012 PROJECTION IPG 1, bgnyrpts FOR PERIOD 99 2013 PCT 2 -ADMIN CHANGE 03 SALARIES 62003511 511401 SUPERVISOR 38,826.40 39,609.00 39,609.00 19,877.56 39,609.00 40,393.00 2.0% 62003511 511405 WRKNG FRMN 49,893.39 53,239.00 53,239.00 25,855.04 53,239.00 50,825.00 -4.5% 62003511 511409 EQUIP OP 51,.907.68 51,908.00 51,908.00 27,897.15 51,908.00 54,539.00 5.1% 62003511 511413 SKLLD LABR 3,500.21 .00 00 .00 .00 .00 .0% 62003511 511417 LABORER 54,557.71 66,062.00 66,062.00 34,687.91 66,062.00 69,747.00 5.6% 62003511 511471 CLERK(S) 17,268.81 17,598.00 17,598.00 8,536.17 17,598.00 18,632.00 5.9% 62003511 511481 SNOW RMVL .00 -

In particular the following proposed draft language for an amendment to the Board of Selectmen Policies and Procedures will be discussed: *DRAFT POLICY* RULE 4. Amplified Sound - Users of public property and abutting residents should have an expectation of quiet enjoyment of the Town's public parks, playgrounds, recreation and other open space areas.— This rule recognizes that these properties are the site of some activities which inherently create levels of noise due to customary and usual uses such as fans cheering, referee and coach's whistles, and bands playing during football games.— There is also recognition that as a community the public parks, playgrounds, recreation and other open space areas are the site of occasional community events which use amplified sound such as school field days, community fairs, and fireworks displays, etc. Amplified sound is defined as voice, music or any sound extended above and beyond its normal range by an electronic device or secondary means such as a radio, megaphone or non - electric equipment. The use of amplified sound in public parks, playgrounds, recreation and other open space areas is not permitted without a permit to be granted by the Recreation Committee or other agency which has jurisdiction over said public property. When permitted, the use of amplified sound shall be controlled by the permit holder such that the volume, direction, and duration of the sound is the minimum needed to meet the purpose of the use of the sound, and which will minimize the impact of the sound on other users of the park, playground, or other public property and its abutters. — The intent of this rule is to allow, with a permit from the Recreation Committee or other agency which has jurisdiction over said public property, reasonable and occasional playing of music or use of amplified sound while considering location, content, duration and frequency such as an annual fair, once a year all -star sports games, etc.— The use of amplified sound is not intended to be a routine for recurring events such as play by play announcements for sporting events and other repeated use of music and amplified sound.. The permitting authority should consider the frequency of amplified permits per park or recreation site and afford significant consideration to the neighbors abutting the permitted areas as regards to their inconvenience created by said permit. When a permit is granted, a copy of the permit shall be transmitted to the Board of Selectmen at least 3 days before the event at which the music or amplified sound is to be used. — Additionally, all permitted dates of amplified sound will be posted in a conspicuous place on the Town's website as well as available by contacting the Recreation Division or head of any other agency having jurisdiction over the public property for which a permit has been granted. Any variance from this rule will require the permitted applicant to petition the Board of Selectmen for such variance at which time a public hearing will be held on the matter. qbv 1/17/2012 Page 3 of 3 CIM Any person not able to attend the public hearing may put their comments in writing prior to the meeting and send them c/o Recreation Division at 16 Lowell Street, Reading, MA 01867 or email Recreation Administrator, John Feudo at jfeudo c ci.readin ma.us.
