Analysis
In accordance with s. 309-54 of the Code of Ordinances, this resolution establishes the 2024 Local Sewerage Charge at $1.68 per 100 cubic feet of discharged water.

Body
Whereas, Section 309-54 of the Code of Ordinances authorizes the imposition of a Local Sewerage Charge on each user who discharges waste water into the City sewerage system, pursuant to the authority granted to the City by s. 66.0821, Wis. Stats., and s. 12-27 of the City Charter; and

Whereas, Section 309-54 of the Code requires the Common Council to adopt, on an annual basis, a resolution establishing the Local Sewerage Charge; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the 2024 Local Sewerage Charge is established, in accordance with s. 309-54 of the Code, at $1.68 per 100 cubic feet of discharged water; and, be it

3. For residential users: consumption in the winter quarter or water consumption in each succeeding quarter, whichever is less. Winter quarter shall mean the quarter ending in February, March or April.

; and, be it

Further Resolved, That this charge shall be assessed to property owners using the most current water consumption data available; and, be it

Further Resolved, That this ordinance takes effect January 1, 2024.
