ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF UKIAH
AMENDING SECTION 3962.8.2 OF THE UKIAH CITY CODE
The City Council of the City of Ukiah hereby ordains as follows:
SECTION ONE.
Section 3962, subsection B.2 is amended to read as follows
SECTION 3962: COMPUTING THE PRO-RATA SHARE.
B. Submeters. * * *
2. Sewer service: The Pro-Rata share of the City Charges for sewer service shall
be determined by two separate calculations which are added together to determine the
tenant's Pro-Rata Share as follows:
1. The total units of water from all of the submeter readings for the Sewer Service Period
is subtracted from the total units of water used by the Multi-Unit Property for the Sewer
Service Period as shown by the master meter ("Master Meter Total"). That number is
divided by the Master Meter Total to produce a fraction or percentage. That fraction or
percentage is multiplied by the City Charges for sewer service. The resulting dollar
amount is pro-rated equally among the tenants by dividing it by the total number of
rented spaces or apartments in the Multi-Unit Property.
2. The remaining portion of the City Charges for sewer service is pro-rated among the
tenants by creating a fraction for each tenant with the numerator being that tenant's
submeter reading for the Sewer Service Period and the denominator being the total
submeter readings for the Sewer Service Period. The tenant's pro-rata share of these
remaining City Charges is computed by multiplying those charges by this fraction.
SECTION TWO.
1. COMPLIANCE WITH CEQA. The City Council finds that this ordinance is not
subject to the California Environmental Quality Act ("CEQA") pursuant to Sections
15060(c)(2) (the activity will not result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect
physical change in the environment), 15061(b)(3) (there is no possibility the activity in
question may have a significant effect on the environment.
2. SEVERABILITY. The provisions of this Ordinance are not intended to limit or
conflict with any provision in Civil Code, Division 2, Part 2, Title 2, Chapter 2.5,
commencing with Section 798, and, in particular, Article 4, thereof, commencing with
Section 798.30. If any provision of this ordinance or the application thereof to any
person or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of the ordinance and the application
of such provision to other persons or circumstances shall not be affected thereby. The
City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance and any section,
subsection, sentence, clause or phrase thereof irrespective of the fact that any one or more
sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases be declared unconstitutional or
otherwise invalid.
3. EFFECTIVE DATE. This Ordinance shall be published as required by law in a
newspaper of general circulation in the City of Ukiah, and shall become effective thirty
(30) days after its adoption; provided, however, that the Pro-Rata Share shall be
computed in accordance with this ordinance for any City Charges received by a Multi-
Unit Property on or after the date this ordinance is adopted.
