Title

Resolution authorizing staff to petition the Public Service Commission for a Simplified Rate Increase

Body

WHEREAS, the rates presently charged to its customers by the West Allis Water Utility are insufficient and inadequate to carry on the Utility's operation at a reasonable and prudent level, and:

WHEREAS, the West Allis Municipal Water Utility is able to file a Simplified Rate Case to automatically increase the rate by 3%, and:

WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of the City of West Allis and its Water Public Utility that prompt application be made to the Public Service Commission for a Simplified Rate increase in the rates of the West Allis Water utility effective for service rendered on and after July 1, 2014

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Finance Manager/Comptroller be and is hereby authorized and directed to file an application with the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin for a Simplified Rate increase in the water rates for the City of West Allis to provide those reasonable rates which are permitted by law on existing facts for a reasonable rate of return on investment
