PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The Pueblo Street Repair Utility Enterprise (“Enterprise”) was created on December 26, 2017 by Ordinance No. 9217. On May 14, 2018, by Ordinance No. 9278, the City entered into an intergovernmental agreement with the Board of Water Works regarding the billing and collection of the Enterprise’s monthly service fees. BACKGROUND: Section 12-11-6 Pueblo’s Municipal Code authorizes City Council, as the ex officio governing board of the Enterprise, to establish monthly street repair utility service charges. The Enterprise’s service fees have not been previously set by Council. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The proposed Ordinance will establish street repair rates which are estimated to generate annual revenue of approximately $1,000,000 in 2019. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Not applicable. ALTERNATIVES: A no-action alternative would leave the Enterprise with no revenue to make street repairs in 2019. RECOMMENDATION: Approval of this Ordinance. Attachments: Proposed Ordinance.
