RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF NATIONAL CITY AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER
OF 16 OBSOLETE METRO SEWER METERS TO SAN
DIEGO METRO SEWER SYSTEM, AT NO COST
WHEREAS, in the late 1980's, the City purchased 16 sewer meters at a cost of
approximately $19,700 each, to measure sewage flows from the City of San Diego and the
County of San Diego into and out of National City, and to measure quantities going into the
Metro Sewer System ("Metro"), which is the basis for charges to the City by Metro; and
WHEREAS, the sewer meters were maintained via a contract, administered by
Metro, but paid by the City; and
WHEREAS, in 1998, the City of San Diego overhauled the meters at a cost of
approximately $11,000 each, which cost must be borne by the City of National City; and
WHEREAS, Metro is implementing a program to own all meters impacting its
billing; and
WHEREAS, it has been proposed that the City of National City transfer the sewer
meters to Metro, in exchange for which Metro will not bill the City $175,000 for the 1998
upgrade, and will take over the payments for maintenance; and
WHEREAS, it has been proposed that the $175,000 budgeted for the City's cost
of the 1998 upgrade be credited to the Sewer Reserve account.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
National City that the transfer of 16 obsolete Metro Sewer Meters to San Diego Metro, at no
cost to the City of National City, is hereby authorized, and that the unspent $175,000 budgeted
for overhauling of meters be credited to the Sewer Reserve Account.
PASSED and ADOPTED this 20th day of July, 1999.
