E. Pursuant to EC 6.411(1), I have conducted an investigation of the revenue needs of <br /> the City in providing these services. <br /> F. Based on my investigation, I find that the proposed Stormwater User Fee Schedule is <br /> in compliance with the Council's directive that the costs of providing such services be recovered <br /> from the beneficiaries of the services, and other applicable policies and directives of the City <br /> Council; is consistent with applicable federal and state regulations; is comparable to the amounts <br /> <br /> . chazged by the City of Springfield and other such service providers; preserves the equity between <br /> different classes of ratepayers; and is based on the proposed budgets of the City. Therefore, the <br /> amended fee schedule attached as Exhibit A should be implemented and effective for all bills issued <br /> on or after July 1, 2006. <br /> On the basis of these fmdings, I order that: <br /> 1. A copy of this Order be forwarded to the Mayor and City Councilors. This Order <br /> shall become effective on the 11 ~ day after the date of its entry unless a review is requested by a <br /> majority of the members of the Council prior to the effective date. <br /> 2. Notwithstanding the effective date of this Order as set forth above, the Stormwater <br /> User Fees attached as Exhibit A are established as the fees to be chazged for the described services, <br /> effective for all bills issued on or after July 1, 2006. <br /> 3.
