To get a broader perspective, the <br />following chart depicts the combined water and sewer impact for a typical single - family home for the <br />comparison group. <br />2013 Water &Sewer Charge Comparison <br />� $200 — <br />� $iso <br />$160 <br />$140 <br />� $120 <br />$100 - <br />$80 —� <br />G <br />When combined, Roseville is approximately 17% above the average for the peer group. However, it <br />should be noted that most of the cities shown in the chart that have lower utility rates, happen to have <br />much higher property tax rates. This is an important distinction because again, each City employs a <br />different philosophy in how it funds the direct and indirect costs of providing services. <br />Roseville's philosophy is to ensure that all indirect costs are reflected in the water and sewer rates. This <br />results in higher water and sewer rates. This also means that we don't have as much indirect costs <br />being supported by the property tax or assessments. <br />This can be somewhat reflected in the chart below which combines property taxes and water and sewer <br />charges for a typical single - family home. <br />Page 8of10 <br />
