Re: RFP No. 17-142 — Water and Sewer Enterprise Cost of Service Study
Dear Mr. Barrera and Members of the Selection Committee:
January 23, 2018
We are pleased to present this proposal to conduct a water and sewer cost of service study for the City of Santa Ana
(City). Our team understands that the success of your utility is often judged on how well you avoid financial
turmoil and legal challenges while you continue to invest in your assets and deliver great services. A
financial plan and rate analysis from Stantec helps you identify difficulties in advance, analyze your options and plot
the course for a safe arrival at your future.
Our project team is uniquely qualified to assist the City in this important study. Our Project Manager, Mark
Hildebrand, has 16 years of utility rate consulting experience in California. He is also an expert in the legal landscape
for water rate -setting in California and has had articles published on the implications of Proposition 218 on utility rate
making. He will serve as your main point of contact during proposal evaluation as well as during the project. Our
Regional Advisor, John Moynier, is based in our Irvine office, and has a long history of working as a trusted advisor to
local public utilities, including a number of Orange County water and wastewater agencies.
We have teamed with CV Strategies (a frequent partner to Stantec on similar projects) to provide translation services
and potentially provide public outreach (as a value-added service if requested by the City).
Mr. Hildebrand and a number of his colleagues are currently serving on the AWWA Rates and Charges Committee
where they are actively involved in developing the industry standards for rate setting, as published in AWWA's
Manual M1 — Principles of Water Rates, Fees and Charges. This experience means we bring industry best practices
to our approach to the City in the form of financial forecasting, cost of service, and rate making.
Stantec Consulting Services Inc. (Stantec) is a publicly traded corporation, and Mr. Hildebrand has the authority to
make legally binding commitments for Stantec.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sincerely,

It is this deep bench of experience that brings value to your project. As a group, we work together and
learn from each other's experiences. This sharing of knowledge and expertise will be brought to your
project as well. You can be assured that our team will develop a comprehensive and balanced solution
to this study.
Our Team
We are pleased to present the City with a complete and well-rounded project team, including experts
in the field of water, sewer and recycled rate design, cost of service and the requirements of
Proposition 218. Our carefully selected team has a depth of experience in each service requested by
the City. We have structured our project team with members who are particularly strong in:
• Multi -Year Financial Management Plans. Our financial planning platform was designed
for systems of similar size operated by local government agencies, including capital and
operations & maintenance expense budgeting, grant funding, and financial best practices
relative to reserve policies, capital funding (debt levels), and rate adjustments.
• Cost -based Rates. We develop rates that clearly allocate costs to customers based on
real design criteria and usage characteristics. Our approach will yield fair and equitable
rates for each class of customer.
• Robust and Defensible Rate Design. We lead the industry in rate structure concepts that
address specific local policy objectives (such as conservation, affordability, and fixed cost
recoverytrevenue stability) while conforming to accepted industry practice and legal
precedent. This is something that we've been doing since well before the infamous San
Juan Capistrano decision (Prop 218 court case).
Rate Structures that Promote Conservation while maintaining financial stability, and are
founded in the strength of multiple years of your entire billing database, not just a
"representative sample" as often used in less diligent approaches.
• The clarity of our communications are second to none. In addition, we are prepared to
team with CV Strategies, which is a well -established strategic communications firm that is
known for their compelling public outreach campaigns on water and wastewater issues.
They possess the skills on how to captivate target audiences in creative and engaging
ways with otherwise complex information.
Our Financial Services practice has over 30 professional consultants qualified to provide the requested
services to the City in the rare situation that a substitute team member be required. Moreover, we have
team members who will dedicate a significant portion of their time to quality assurance and quality
control reviews in order to provide internal auditing of the work products we prepare for the City.
The organization chart and corresponding table outline the key members of our team and their role in
providing the requested services. Resumes are presented in the appendix.

D. Understanding of Need
This section presents our understanding of the requested study, an outline of our anticipated approach
including tasks that will be completed, and suggestions for value -add services that ourteam can
provide.
Project Understanding
The City of Santa Ana was incorporated in 1886 and has a population of approximately 334,000. The
City's Water and Sewer Enterprises are operated through the Department of Public Works. The Water
Enterprise serves potable and reclaimed water to residential, commercial, industrial, institutional and
irrigation customers. The majority of the City's water supply comes from local groundwater (as
managed by OCWD) while about 30 — 35% Is imported water that is purchased from the Metropolitan
Water District of Southern California (MWD). The City purchases (then sells) recycled water from
OCWD, whose costs are billed both annually and regularly. The Sewer Enterprise collects and
transports all sanitary flow to the Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD), which bills customers
separately for treatment services on the property tax roll.
The last Water, Sewer and Recycled water rate study was completed in 2014 and included a
comprehensive analysis of the systems' rehabilitation and replacement needs. The current study (to be
completed by September 2018) will independently review the cost -of -service basis of the current rates
and implement a new 5-year rate schedule by July 2019. This current cost -of -service review will focus
on the balance of fixed versus variable revenue and compliance with applicable (and evolving) law,
Similar to other utilities in Orange County, as well as the rest of the State, the water demand in Santa
Ana has declined for a myriad of reasons. Regardless of the cause of those declines, Stantec
understands that the City desires a financial plan and rate structure that protects the City from the
revenue swings that can accompany changes in water demand. The City's current water rates collect
less than 20% of revenue through a fixed source, which is relatively low compared to the rest of the
industry. As part of this study, and at no additional cost, Stantec will examine the benefits of adopting
drought rates as a hedge against unknown future water demands (see Task Il.c).
Stantec will recommend any adjustments that are necessary to financially and legally protect the City
and its ratepayers. The rate plan will equitably provide for all utility costs while minimizing financial
Impacts to customers. As a nationally -recognized water and wastewater engineering firm, Stantec is
uniquely positioned to help the City to frame the value of proposed water system improvements and
replacements and how those costs will benefit customers.
As part of this study, Stantec will evaluate existing O&M costs and project future costs based on current
levels as well as any changes in service levels. We will work with City staff to determine if existing
O&M costs are aligned with the levels of service to customers. Again, Stantec is uniquely positioned to
evaluate the City's service levels and costs through our proprietary benchmarking database (see
Task ILe),
This study will also take a close look at the City's water rate structure within the context of California
law, especially in light of the San Juan Capistrano court case which has "raised the bar" on the level of
City of Santa Ana, California l Water and Sewer Enterprise Cost of Service Study Steal" 9
explanation required from rate reports. For example, in reviewing the City's 2014 water rate study
report (1) there doesn't appear to be a justification for the per -unit charge for multifamily residences, (2)
the OCWD "pass -through" formula isn't explained, and (3) the recycled water rates (which are lower
than potable water rates) are not fully explained. While it is possible that all of these elements have an
equitable basis, there is insufficient documentation. And insufficient documentation is the root cause of
most successful Proposition 218 lawsuits. At Stantec, we are proud to say that we have been providing
thorough and defensible deliverables (ultimately the "administrative record" in court) since before the
San Juan Capistrano case made it the "new standard".
Finally, because we recognized that this engagement includes a mid-term review (Task VII), we will be
particularly attentive to developing financial models that can be efficiently populated with updated O&M
and capital spending data (as is part of the standard added value that we provide to our clients).
Scope
Based on our understanding of the City and the requested services, we propose to complete the
following tasks. The schedule in Section F and the Fee in Section H correspond with these tasks.
Task I. Water, Recycled Water and Sanitary Sewer System Evaluation
To initialize the study we will submit a data request to the City, Shortly thereafter, we will conduct a
Project Kickoff Meeting with staff to:
✓' Discuss key issues, roles and responsibilities
✓ Confirm study objectives and further explore project drivers such as revenue stability
✓ Confirm data requirements and discuss the data already received
✓ Finalize the project schedule, including key milestone dates and deliverables
Once all data has been received, we will review it in detail. This will include a review of master plan
documents, historical performance, financial data, prior studies, capital plans, budgets and service
agreements. Follow-up calls with staff will be made to ensure full understanding of all data received.
We will perform a detailed review of the data pertaining to the water, recycled water and sewer
enterprises. Based on our review of all applicable data, Stantec shall identify any cost of service gaps
or discrepancies between the existing rate structures, the projected maintenance, operations and
capital spending plans and the effects of drought and associated reduced water consumption demands.
This summary will also identify the strategy that Stantec proposes to use to address any cost of service
gaps identified.

Task II. Cost of Service Rate Model and Scenario Development
Task 11 will be the bulk of our financial analysis, during which we will identify revenue requirements,
analyze cost of service, and develop rate design alternatives for the water, recycled water, and sewer
systems, as well as evaluate the City's miscellaneous fees, assess service levels, and conduct
benchmarking/surveying.
Task Il.a - Revenue Requirements
We use our revenue sufficiency and financial planning module to develop a 10-year financial
management plan for both enterprise funds, including projected annual revenue requirements and rate
adjustments. This module allows examination of historical operating expenses, growth and
consumption trends, alternative capital Improvement spending levels, debt service coverage ratios,
levels of operating and capital reserves, and other financial policies/goals that affect the revenue
requirements of the funds.
Demand Projections. In addition to evaluating financial goals and objectives, we will also evaluate
alternative demand projections, cost escalation factors, changes in usage patterns, elasticity of
customer demand in response to rate increases, and other variables that could affect the financial
performance of the enterprises, including separately identifying portions of the utility system revenues
that fund utility system operating costs.
One item of particular importance is the projection of volumetric sales. Water use patterns are
influenced by price signals, and change in customer behavior can also be affected by other non -price
factors, such as rainfall (as evidenced by the recent drought), conservation programs (as evidenced by
reactions to the Governor's drought declaration in 2015), and economic conditions (as evidenced by the
recent recession). We will analyze probable ranges of demand changes in response to different
degrees of rate increases, weather patterns, rate structure changes, etc.
Capital Spending Scenarios. Our tools are
particularly adept and showing the rate
impact of comparative capital spending
scenarios. Our team is equally adept at
examining the age and condition of your
system to understand whether the currently
level of capital spending is sufficient to keep
pace with the depreciation of the system's
assets. We will work with staff to develop a
series of comparative capital spending
scenarios that can be presented to
stakeholders for consideration.

Funding Plan. For all scenarios reviewed, the financial planning module will develop a funding plan,
including the identification of the amount, timing, and type of borrowing required as may be necessary
(debt scenarios). We will examine each enterprise fund's use of debt financing for capital improvements
and assess the impact of current levels of debt financing, as well as building a financing scenario to
support the City in maintaining a proper balance for debt coverage and rate stabilization over the study
period.
City of Santa Ana, California i Water and Sewer Enterprise Cost of Service Study Starlec 8
Reserves. Closely related to this analysis is an examination of adequacy of reserves for operating and
capital projects. Adequate reserves are fundamental to achieving financial stability, and can help some
systems to avoid sudden or disruptive rate adjustments in the face of unanticipated operating or capita
needs. We will examine each enterprises' fund balances and incorporate these balances and
alternative reserve policies into the interactive planning process and the conversations we will have
regarding financial sustainability.
Stantec will work interactively with City staff to validate our financial planning findings during a
Financial Planning Validation Workshop.
Task Il.b - Cost of Service
We identify the most appropriate Prop 218-compliant cost -of -service allocation methodologies and rate
structures based upon available data, legal requirements, system configuration, service agreements,
resources, customer base, demand and usage characteristics, local practice, and public policy
objectives. We then customize the cost allocation module to employ the identified methodologies and
concepts best suited for each utility system. We will evaluate the behavior of various customer classes
and discuss option, as appropriate, of adding a customer class or combining existing customer classes.
At the conclusion of the cost allocation portion of the analysis, we compare the resulting allocation of
revenue requirements to the revenue generated by the current rates for each customer class. To the
extent current revenue recovery levels are not in line with the results of the cost of service allocation
analysis, we evaluate alternative levels of revenue recovery by class of customer within the rate
structure analysis that would better comport with the identified cost of service allocations.
Stantec will work interactively with City staff to validate our cost of service findings during a Cost of
Service Workshop.
Task Il.c - Rate Design
We will review of the City's current rate structures and collaborate with City staff to understand the
options of alternative rate structures. The rate structure will be evaluated (including a review and
analysis of current block sizes and seasonal rate differentials) to determine if they may better serve the
City's fiscal stability and/or public policy objectives relating to fixed cost recovery, economic
development, and affordability, while ensuring a fair and equitable distribution of costs, and
conformance to accepted industry practice, legal precedent, and terms of any service agreements. As
part of this effort, we will be evaluating the distribution of costs between the fixed and variable
components of the rate structure, and will make recommendations that are consistent with your cost
recovery objectives.
In addition to standard rates, Stantec proposes to develop a drought rate schedule for the City.
Drought rates are alternative rate schedules that are adopted and then implemented in the event of a
drought (as declared by City Council). Drought rates are a powerful tool against revenue shortfalls
during droughts. Interestingly, drought rates don't always involve a change in the unit rate for water,
but rather sometimes the adjustment is to the allocation of water for various tiered rates.
City of Santa Ana, California I Water and Sewer Enterprise Cost of Service Study Stantec 9
A critical element to evaluating a rate design option is understanding the sensitivity of rate revenue to
changes in key variables such as water consumption, the cost of supply water, regulatory requirements,
and economic conditions. Stantec's rate design models are adept at running sensitivity analysis
because we use comprehensive billing data which allows us to incorporate features such as price
elasticity of demand.
By combining the concepts of
conservation -based tiered rates with
affordability concepts, Stantec has
been able to lower the monthly bill
for low water user, even in the face
of general rate revenue increases.
Stantec's review of the City rate design will also include
an assessment of the current formula that is utilized to
pass -through costs from water purveyors. Stantec will
make adjustments as necessary and capture the formula
in a "Pass -through adjustment calculator' in MS Excel.
Affordability —The City has also requested strategies to
provide rates that reduce the economic impact of utility
costs on elderly or low-income customers. Stantec leads
the industry in our focus on the affordability challenge that
is facing water utilities. Stantec has found innovative and legal approaches to rate design that will
fiscally reward consumers for conserving water while collecting revenue for the City's conservation
program from those who are wasteful. We have also developed a unique approach to evaluating the
affordability of your rates — WARiTM for weighted average residential index. This approach allows our
clients to examine concerns at micro levels throughout their service area and tailor programs to meet
the needs of their low-income residents.
Stantec will work with City staff to finalize rate structure decisions during a Rate Design Workshop.
Task Il.d - Evaluate Miscellaneous Fees
During this portion of the study, we will review the City's existing fees and utility operations to determine
if the fees are appropriate and whether any additional fees or charges are warranted to compensate the
enterprises for services rendered, based upon our knowledge of accepted national and local practices.
Task Il.e - Survey and Benchmarking
Stantec will conduct a survey that provides a clear comparison of the existing and proposed rates to the
rates being charged by all other utilities within Orange County. In our experience, we have found that
such surveys are invaluable for communicating with City Council and the public.
As a value -add (and for no additional cost), we propose to conduct a benchmarking analysis that
compares key operations metrics to similar utilities in the area based on published and proprietary
industry metrics and researched performance data. Stantec has developed the largest reliable
database of utility financial metrics in the United States from over 500 agencies. Called UtilitiWtse, we
use this data to benchmark our clients' financial performance to industry averages or their peers. These
data give our clients perspective on what "good" looks like in our unique municipal water sector.
Utilitiwise also allows us to prepare a comparison of current utility system costs relative to service
levels. Benchmarking can be used to assess performance objectively; expose potential areas for
improvement; identify effective processes or management strategies, with a view to their adoption; and
test whether tactics have been successful.

Task III. Cost of Service Report
Stantec produces detailed and transparent documentation of our analysis. And the reason that we
spend extra time on our reports isn't just for our clients; we also do it for our own peace of mind. The
final report to a rate study becomes a tremendously Important legal document that will play a pivotal
role in the outcome of any legal challenges that may be levied against the City (which is an increasingly
common occurrence these days).
We will first prepare a draft for your review, and once comments are received, we will incorporate them
into a final report. The report provides a simplified and straightforward synopsis of the analysis, and
includes appendices that contain a series of graphs, charts, and tables that provide the supporting
details of the study described in the body of the report. The report will include a stand-alone Executive
Summary for distribution, which often serves as an effective communication tool with stakeholders.
As previously mentioned, our Report will include results from the utility survey, as well as relevant
benchmarking results.
In addition to the report, we will also prepare a Proposition 218 Notification (in English, Spanish and
Vietnamese).
Final Report
Proposition 218 Compliant Notices (3 languages)
Task IV. Public Meetings and Presentations
Public support for rate changes depends on whether or not the public perceives the rates as fair. This
perception depends, amongst other things, on the clarity of presentations and discussions at public
hearings. Minor misunderstandings of the underlying rationale for a selected approach can cause
disproportionate dissatisfaction with the proposed rates. By engaging the Council at the beginning of
the project and then again in the finalization of the rate design will give these community leaders an
advance understanding of the rates and make subsequent public discourse less confused
Prop 218 Process. Stantec will assist the City with the rate approval process, including presentations
to Council, preparing testimonies for rate hearings, and presenting at those rate hearings. The
presentations are critical not just to comply with Prop 218 noticing requirements, but also to generate
acceptance of the study recommendations.

Task VI. Project Management & Coordination
Mark Hildebrand will manage our projectteam, including scheduling, invoicing, and all meetings and
deliverables. We will invoice the City on a monthly basis and will include a summary of the tasks,
results and progress as part of each invoice.
Task VII. Midterm Review
Following the initial study completed in the tasks above, we will perform a midterm review in either year
2 or 3 of the implemented 5-year rate plan. This will include an update to the revenue requirements and
a review of the cost of service and rate design elements to evaluate the performance at that point in
time. Should adjustments be required, we will provide the necessary documentation, including
Proposition 218 notices. The review will include an addendum to the initial report.
Stantec's financial models will be highly tailored to the City's financial reports, therefore updating the
models with new financial data during the midterm review will be efficient and repeatable.
Task Vill. Value -Added Related Services
Stantec offers a variety of rate -related services that are included in our basic price proposal and
described in the text above. This includes utilization of our Utilitiwise database (see Task Il.e) and
development of drought rates (see Task II.c).
Our proposed team includes CV Strategies to provide translation services for the Proposition 218
Notification. In addition, CV Strategies is available to provide additional customer education or to
develop an outreach program. These services would be in addition to Stantec's standard (top quality)
engagement of Council over the course of the project.

Comprehensive Water, Sewer and Recycled Water Rate Study
The Moulton Niguel Water District is a retail water, wastewater and recycled water purveyor located in
Orange County, CA. The district indirectly purchases wholesale water that originates from Colorado
River California Aqueduct. In 2014, the state of California issued drought state of emergency
declarations in response to record -low water levels In California's rivers and reservoirs, thereby
impacting the cost of imported water and the availability of water supplies.
Our team worked with the district to develop budget based water rates, recycled water rates, and
wastewater rates that would enable the district to (1) recover projected operating cost increases; (2)
continue to repair and replace the district's aging infrastructure; (3) maintain the financial stability of the
utilities; (4) avoid the depletion of reserves; and (5) comply with regulatory and legal requirements.
Moulton Niguel's water rates are budget -based rates. Residential customers are given an indoor and an
outdoor water budget for the first two tiers, respectively, and then three additional tiers which are used
to fund the conservation program and peaking costs. Commercial customers' water budgets are
calculated based on a three-year rolling average of monthly water use. Irrigation and recycled water
customers' water budgets are calculated In the same manners as residential outdoor water budgets.
Stantec calculated a monthly fire protection charge for properties with private fire suppression systems.
In response to the drought, Stantec helped the district shape water shortage rates that complement the
district's water shortage contingency plan, which adjusts customers' assigned water budgets during
specified stages. During Stages 2-5, any customer who uses water in excess of their calculated water
budget is required to pay a unit -based administrative penalty in addition to the standard volumetric
charge. The wastewater rates were structured to recover the costs to operate and maintain the
wastewater collection system and to pay wholesale costs for treating and disposing of its wastewater.

Coachella Valley Water District, CA
Potable Water, Recycled Water, Canal Water, Sewer, and Replenishment
Program Rate Study
Coachella Valley Water District (CVWD) is a large and complex utility that services 1,000 square miles
of California land and providing a myriad of utility services, including the delivery of irrigation and
domestic (potable) water, collecting and recycling wastewater, managing stormwater, and importing
water to replenish its groundwater basin.
Stantec been working collaboratively with CVWD staff and the District's Board for over 3 years to
develop a series of recommendations that have overhauled the manner in which the District charges its
customers for services. A comprehensive was needed to address the historical complexities of the
(then) existing rates, which were based on decades of undocumented Board policy decisions,
interdepartmental agreements for cost sharing, legal intricacies tied to water rights, service area
acquisitions, the sharing of mitigation costs among utilities due to past legal action, and aquifers that
have a poorly understood hydraulic relationship. Recommendations included the elimination
(simplification) of different service areas rates, the merging of three separate replenishment programs
into a single program and fund, strengthening the cost -of -service foundation for all rates, and the use of
more transparent rate charge methodologies for capacity charges.
Armed with robust rates, Coachella Valley Water District can now focus its attention on providing
outstanding service to its customers and delivering its ambitious capital program.
When our work first began, the District's primary goal was to fund their long-term needs. With the value
brought by Stantec, the District how has the peace of mind of equitable and transparent rates, robust
rate revenue, fair allocation of costs among its various utilities, and improved relations with its customer
base.

Water Rate Study
The City of Bakersfield (City) engaged Stantec Consulting to study the finances of the City's Domestic
Water Fund and develop recommendations for updating the Domestic Water Rates. The study was
primarily a long-range financial plan with recommended rate revenue adjustments in response to
changes in drinking water regulations (see below), and also included recommendations regarding cost
of service, rate design, and financial policies for the Domestic Water Fund.
In early March 2017, the State Water Resources Control Board Division of Drinking Water (DDW)
issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for a new maximum contaminant level for the synthetic
organic chemical 1,2,3-trichloropropane (TCP). The City was expected to begin treatment of TCP at 41
wells for a capital cost of approximately $55 million (the majority of which would be financed with two
Water Revenue Bonds) and an estimated additional $5 million in annual operating costs.
In order to evaluate the long-term financial sustainability of the Domestic Water Fund, Stantec
evaluated the utility's revenues and expenses in a five-year financial plan. In addition to accounting for
operating costs, capital spending, and projected debt service, the financial plan also accounts for non -
rate revenue, reserve targets, and financial performance metrics (specifically, the debt service
coverage ratio).
Notably, this project was completed in 3 weeks. This means that Stantec created a financial model that
mirrored the entire Domestic Water Fund, met with city staff on several occasions, developed
recommendations, and wrote a report in 15 business days. This project is a testament to the efficiency
of our finance team, the effectiveness of our tools, and our willingness to be responsive to our clients'
needs.

Water and Sewer Rate Analysis
The City of Norco provides water and sewer service to a population of approximately 25,000 in
Riverside County. In addition to retail potable water services, the City also provides wholesale water
services to the Santa Ana River Water Company and uses a regional approach as a cost effective way
to treat wastewater.
Stantec completed a rate study and subsequent updates that addresses the revenue volatility
experienced by the City during the recent drought. The City's goal was to ensure stable revenue for its
fixed costs.
Our team conduct a rate study, including rates designed to fund the utility's long-term projected cost of
providing services while also providing a reasonable and prudent balance of revenue stability, and
complying with the substantive requirements of California Constitution Article XII I D, Section 6 (Prop
218). It was determined that Norco would implement a relatively high fixed charge and uniform rates in
order to ensure stable revenue.

Water Rate Study
We recently completed a comprehensive water rate study for the District, inclusive of a multi -year
financial plan, cost of service allocation, and rate structure analysis. Using the financial module of our
interactive modeling system, we developed several alternative multi -year financial management plans
and corresponding water rate revenue adjustment plans which we reviewed in interactive work sessions
with District staff.
Aside from the detailed financial planning, cost of service and rate design analysis, Stantec remained
focused on the District concern that the previous rate failed to communicate the underlying reasoning for
the rate recommendations. Our team was proactive in directly engaging the Board to develop the basis
for the financial planning assumption and the rate design policies. Credibility was achieved through the
clarity of our recommendations and the transparency of our process.
Finally, we reviewed the District's existing rate structure and developed modifications to ensure that the
District rate structure conformed to the requirements of Proposition 218. Stantec was able to meet this
standard while also while achieving the District's policy objectives.
As part of this study we teamed with a communications firm that held special outreach meetings with
stakeholders and customers of concern.
Ultimately the rate recommendations were adopted unanimously by the Board, with the consensus being
that the presentation of the information and the project report was the best that the Board had seen for a
rate study.
