Department: Attachments: Budget Impact:
Finance Letter of Request, Utility Leak
Adjustment and Policy and Procedure
100-52A
Administrative Recommendation:
City Council approve an additional water utility adjustment to account number 14052, for Nancy
Christman, in the amount of $474.35.
Background Summary:
The customer had a large leak under the house beneath the kitchen sink area. Once the leak was
discovered (after the April 20th billing) the customer had the leak repaired (5/8/07) and submitted $707.85
in repair bills.
The customer's utility account was billed $1,495.25 in water consumption for 707 units due to the leak
and the account was credited $500.00, which is the maximum credit allowed per policy leaving a balance
of $995.25. The customer would normally have been billed $46.55 for the same period, which leaves a
balance of $948.70. This has created a considerable financial hardship and the customer is requesting
an additional adjustment. Per the revised leak adjustment policy (100-52) the customer may be
considered for an additional leak adjustment up to 50% of the remaining water portion over $500, which is
$474.35.
