Public Works Director / City Engineer <br />SUBJECT: Contract for Water Services — City of Roseville <br />Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: <br />$1,748,000 $1,748,000 Water Fund <br />Council Should Consider <br />Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: <br />• Contract for water services between the City of Roseville and the City of Arden Hills <br />Background/Discussion <br />Arden Hills purchases water from the City of Roseville (since 1963) and Roseville purchases <br />water from Saint Paul Regional Water Services (SPRWS). The existing contract with Roseville <br />related to Arden Hills' water supply expires on December 31, 2024, this contract was initially <br />established in 2006. <br />Detailed background and supporting documents of the contract renewal had been provided to the <br />City Council. The proposed contract has been reviewed by the Public Works Director/City <br />Engineer and Finance Director and determined the proposed contract for water services <br />(Attachment A) to be reasonable and justified. City staff recommends the City Council approve <br />the Contract for water services between the City of Roseville and the City of Arden Hills. <br />Budget Impact <br />The proposed new rate relative to 2024's budget is found to be a 26% increase or $361,000. This <br />increase was included within the preliminary 2025 Water Utility Fund Balance. The fund balance <br />is expected to remain positive, so staff is not recommending an increase to the water rate for <br />2025 at this time. <br />Page 1 of 2 <br />
