Title
Approving an ordinance on third and final reading with the caption reading: An ordinance of the City of Pflugerville, Texas Adopting the Pflugerville Fee Schedule; amending certain fees and establishing costs and fees charged by the City of Pflugerville; providing for a penalty for a violation of Section 10.99 of the City Code of Ordinances; and authorize an effective date.

Summary
Due to the amendments made on second reading of this ordinance, as described below, a third and final reading is required for this ordinance.

Beginning in Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22) the Solid Waste Fund was created. The fund operates as a separate entity requiring a minimum 25% fund balance to maintain compliance with City Finance Policy. The 3rd party contract for City waste collection services through Waste Connections has acted upon the contractually allowable pricing increase based on Consumer Price Increase (CPI) and fuel. In order for the Solid Waste Fund to maintain 25% fund balance the below fee structure has been proposed.

Please find the attached ordinance which updates the Master Fee Schedule for fees effective beginning April 1, 2022 after second reading and adoption of this ordinance.

This schedule is an amendment to the current FY2022 Master Fee Schedule which outlines the fees to be assessed for FY22 for the Solid Waste Services. The monthly service fee for proposed out of City Solid Waste was amended on second reading from $22.82 to $22.64. In accordance with several agreements the City has with various Districts, the out of City Solid Waste fee can only be $2 more than in City fees. With these proposed changes, the solid waste fund rate model maintains a 25% fund balance, as required.
