Cost Study for Director of Finance Oman presented the cost study for Contractual contractual sewer services for areas outside the limits Sewer Services of the Costa Mesa Sanitary District. This study for areas outside recommended two alternates as follows- the District Alternate No. 1 Suggests that we adjust system replacement cost by a construction cost escalation factor of at least 6% per year, compounded annually. Over 40 year period (estimated life of the system) this would result in increasing the replacement cost by a factor of 10.29 in terms of District costs. The system replacement cost then should be set at $114.32 per year per unit, plus $6.00 per year per unit operation and maintenance cost and the 24 -cent per year per unit overloading cost, makes a total sewer service charge of $120.56 per unit per year. • Alternate No. 2 If the District can secure a firm legal commitment from the City of Newport Beach to the effect that prior to the expiration of the 40-year life of the system, they will assume the ownership and the responsibility for replace- ment and reimbursing the Sanitary District for the remaining unamortized value of the system, or their commitment to replace the system entirely at their cost, then would recommend that we adjust the $11.11 amortization charge by a 6% interest factor calculated on a declining balance basis. This would then increase the system amortization charge to $29.54 per unit per year which when added to the $6.00 operation and maintenance charge and the.24 cent overloading cost, would produce a total fee of $35.78 per unit per year. After discussion of both alternates, Director Rima made a motion that Attorney June write a letter to the City of Newport Beach offering them either of the above alternates, provided that the presently existing Contracts be adjusted upward also.
