04. Draft 2025 Sewer Budgets1
Staff Report
Date of Meeting: January 13, 2025
To: Wastewater Committee Members
From: Kyle Morell, City Administrator
Re: Draft 2025 Sewer Budgets
______________________________________________________________________________
Background:
The proposed 2025 sewer budgets are attached. In 2024, we worked to separate the revenues and
expenses for the Bliss and Anderson Erickson systems. This separation now shows the City with
three separate sewer funds.
Our budget discussion at our October 30, 2024, meeting led us to charge for services such as
tank pumping and after-hours call-outs. This would allow us to reduce the user fees and add a
revenue line item for service charges. We also discussed creating a seasonal rate for parcels with
a seasonal tax classification from Washington County. Staff also committed to reviewing the
expenses of the Bliss and Anderson Erickson systems.
The attached budgets accomplish these goals.
Bliss Fund
This fund has 79 users. Its total projected expenses are $127,857. Engineering Fees and Other
Professional Services have been increased to reflect the amounts actually spent. Depreciation
has been reduced to reflect only the equipment in the Bliss system.
Revenue is projected at $130,700. $20,000 comes from service charges and $110,100 from user
fees. A new seasonal charge will be $900 for the four seasonal properties in the Bliss Addition.
The remaining 75 users will be charged $1,420 per year, a reduction of $122.63 per year.
Uptown Fund
This system has nine users, two of whom are the city. Expenses are projected at $22,838. This
number does not reflect wages and benefits for Public Works staff, which have been put back
into the General Public Works fund budget to help the Uptown Fund cash flow.
Revenues are projected at $23,910. This is based on an estimated 285,000 gallons of water usage
in 2025, calculated by averaging the annual usage from 2019 – 2024. There is no proposed
2
increase to the base fee, which remains at $630 per year. The rate per thousand gallons will
increase to $63.83, a 15% increase over 2024.
Anderson Erickson Fund
2024 is the first year we separated expenses for the A&E system. Total expenses are projected at
$43,616. Depreciation has been divided between the two systems. We have also added
expenses related to the pumping of residential tanks.
Revenue is projected at $50,360; $10,000 comes from service charges and $40,060 from user
fees. A new seasonal charge will be $900 for the five seasonal properties on the A&E system.
The remaining 28 users will be charged $1,270 per year, a reduction of $272.63 per year.
The Council asked that Staff meet with the users of the Bliss and Anderson Erickson systems to
explain the new billing system. I will have a draft of the letter we will send to the system users
for you to review at our meeting on Monday.
Discussion:
I want to discuss the public information meeting we held on December 9. I am curious to know
what each committee member took away from it. Since the meeting, staff have been working on
putting together the requested information and will share it with the Committee. Charlie and I
have also been working with our engineers on updating an old Capital Improvement spreadsheet
that looks at the future upgrades needed across all sewer systems. I am concerned that we have
not adequately addressed the future maintenance needs of our sewer systems beyond the state-
mandated Bliss upgrade. I want to look more holistically at the sewer systems and their future
maintenance needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
History of Bliss Wastewater System
Year it was built
Final As-Builts for the system were generated in 1988
46 connections at start-up of the system
Permitting agency
MPCA(MN Pollution Control Agency)
Permit renewal every five years: next renewal 2026
Number of connections
As of 2024: 79 connections
Is there room for expansion and how – In current configuration, YES
Properties where gravity or force main is in the ROW in front or behind the property
An additional main line can be added to serve properties outside of the existing service area based on Ordinance those properties would then be required to connect when building on vacant property or if the current system fails
History of Anderson Erickson System
Year it was built
Similar time frame as the Bliss with Final As-Builts generated in
1988
19 connections total at start-up of the system
In 2001 the system was expanded to serve the lakeside properties
on 188th St N, which added 12 connections
Permitting agency
Washington County Public Health and Environment Department
Number of connections
As of 2024, 33 connections
History of A/E Continued
Is there room for expansion, and how – In current
configuration/status, No
The remaining available capacity was allowed for the ‘new’
connections between 2021 and 2024 on Norell Ave (2-all new
connections, 2-updated connections due to total flow change)
If additional measures are taken to reduce Inflow and Infiltration
during the spring melt periods, available capacity may be possible in
the current configuration
April and into May, the system operates at capacity
All other months, the system operates below available capacity
Or, expansion of the drain field by adding more infiltration trenches
Not likely to happen until I&I is mitigated further
System Ownership
Private Portion of the System
The portion of the SSTS that resides within the individual parcel boundaries of the user
and which has not been specifically defined as a public portion of the system, including water meters, service lines running from the house to the septic tank, and from the
septic tank to the main line, septic tank, and lift tank, and any other components within
the owners property.
Public Portion of the System
The portion of the SSTS that is owned and operated by the City, including soil treatment
system, pre-treatment units, tanks, pumps, control panels, collection lines, force main,lift stations, and any other components within the City property
The property owner owns the septic and lift tanks, and the City facilitates their
maintenance to ensure uniformity within the system. Tank replacement is at the
property owner's expense.
Current Operating Procedures
How often are tanks checked for pumping?
Public Works staff Sludge Judge the septic tanks every spring, which measures sludge
and scum level
What level determines when a tank is pumped
When sludge and scum is equal to or above 25% of the total storage capacity of the tank
– or –
If the sludge layer is within 12” of the bottom of the outlet baffle or the floating scum
layer is within 3” of the bottom of the outlet baffle
What are the current monitoring procedures for the systems
Daily Flow is measured at four lift stations in the Bliss and one in the A/E
Monthly, Quarterly, and Annual Wastewater and Groundwater sampling
Drain field Inspections
Tank inspections at time of pumping
Yearly main lift station inspections
Automated alarm system is connected to the main lift stations in the Bliss and A/E, not
on the step/lift pumps located on each property.
2024 Wastewater Committee Discussions
Separating the two systems into two budgets
Began separating expenses in 2024
Returning tank responsibility to the homeowners
Concerns over what is put into the tank
The existence of 11 shared tanks made this difficult
Goal of this was to reduce the user fee by transferring costs to the homeowner
Changing billing and due date of quarterly invoices

Proposed Changes for 2025
Addition of a Seasonal Rate for those properties classified as Seasonal by
Washington County
Addition of Service Fees as revenue
Residents will be billed for tank
maintenance and all call-outs
Rates are based on rates charged
to the City by contractors
Rates will be adopted by the City Council annually
This change will result in lower user fees
Change in billing date
Currently, bills are issued in the last month of the quarter (4th quarter bills are
done in December). The proposed change is to bill in the first month of the next
quarter for the previous quarter(4th quarter bills would be issued in January).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the average cost of pump or panel repair/replacement?
Currently, the cost being proposed is $750 for the pump or panel with additional
electrician cost for 2025 (electrician cost will vary depending on work required)
What does it cost to pump a septic tank?
This varies based on the size of the tank, but the City gets a bulk pumping rate
from its contractor, which is lower than they would charge a single homeowner
Who is responsible for measuring the tanks?
Public Works will measure all tanks annually
Frequently Asked Questions
Will there be different costs during regular work hours versus after-hours,
weekends, or holidays?
Yes, this reflects the different wages paid to staff and the different costs the City
is billed from its contractors. All call-outs will be billed for time and material.
What if a neighbor calls after hours before the homeowner can respond to the
alarm?
Any alarm should be treated the same whether the homeowner calls or a neighbor
An alarm means something is wrong and should be diagnosed as soon as
possible. Only silence the alarm after calling Public Works Office: 651-433-
5223. After Hours: 651-325-5218
Public Works will address the severity of the problem, not the homeowner, and
discuss the options with the homeowner until a repair, if necessary, can take
place.
Frequently Asked Questions
How will delays in part ordering or scheduling be handled?
Pumps/panels which match the City specification are kept on-hand at Public Works
or the local distributor.
Other pumps/panels which do not match City specification will be ordered as
needed with the currently available pump/panel which meets or exceeds on-site
specifications. **There are not many in the system**
In the past, stickers and/or magnets were distributed to users of either
system which included the Washington County Non-Emergency number. This
was due to the systems being maintained by non-city entities and County
dispatch was used to call out the emergency.
Today, you can call Public Works directly for emergency or non-emergency
issues.
