The water and sewer rates contained within this section shall be synonymous with the
term "user charges" as defined in section 24-102 of this article. The charges set forth are for customers meeting the treatment parameters
set forth in division 5. In such cases where a user exceeds the normal treatment standards
and the board agrees to treat such waste, a surcharge will be placed in order to cover
additional treatment costs. The method for determining all charges shall include all
costs necessary to provide proper system O&M, replacement, and meet debt service requirements
in order to maintain the system as an "enterprise fund" as defined in section 24-101 and division 5. These rates shall be reviewed annually during the county's budget
formulation period to reflect the ongoing needs of the system. The county's budget
shall be available for review during the public hearing phase of the county's budget
preparation. Additionally, any rate changes, if adopted, will be advertised in a paper
of major circulation prior to final implementation.
The water and sewer system budget shall be produced in accordance with GAMP standards
and State of Florida accounting codes, to include, but not limited to: salaries and
wages; indirect salary and wage costs; contractual services; materials and supplies;
utilities; mechanical and vehicular equipment replacement; and, debt service.
