BOX 578 SANGER, TEXAS 76 266 Honorable Mayor &Members of the City Council John Hamilton, City Administrator March 18, 1994 Ordinance #92-94 - Electric UtilityIAerage Billing Program The enclosed memorandum from City Secretary Rosalie Chavez, answers most of the questions raised by Council regarding the average billing program. This item is included on the agenda for your consideration or further instructions. If this ordinance is adopted at this meeting, May lst could still be the "kick-off' date for the program. JH:es Enclosures CITY OF SANUER P. O. BOX 578 SANGER, TEXAS 76266 MEMORANDUM TO: John Hamilton, City Administrator FROM: Rosalie Chavez, City Secretary f, DATE: March 11, 1994 SUBJECT: Average Billing Program I checked with the City of Denton and Denton County Electric Coop. regarding their Average Billing Program. Lawanna, with the City of Denton, told me that presently they have 908 customers on the program. As far as it having an impact on their cash flow, she stated that it depends on the time of the year they sign on. For instance, if they apply and get on the program in the Spring or Fall, the City is basically running with the customer's money. They use eleven (11) months for their calculations and this will hopefully make their last payment less (their settle -up month.) Their criteria in allowing a customer to get on the program is basically what we are considering: 1). Excellent credit. 2). All accounts must have 12 months prior billing history; however, people with less than a year are at a risk. 3). Customers must be educated to understand that they still have to economize and be conservative; otherwise, their settle -up month becomes a strain to their pocket -book. 4). If a customer has a extreme high bill to settle, they advise them ahead of time to prepare them. 5). Customers on the program are not allowed to pay late or they come off the program. Vickie at Denton County Electric Coop. advised they have 10°Jo of 32,000 accounts on the program and she said there is no impact either as a + or on their cash flow. They allow a customer to get on the program, even with little as three months billing history, with it being monitored monthly. If their customers become delinquent on the program, they are sent a letter, and if it continues, they are removed from the program and cannot requalify until a year has lapsed to monitor payment history. Average Billing Page 2 Denton County Electric Coops does not offer the program to customers who have had any delinquent payments. In talking to Dennis, he advised that our system can handle the change; however, I would like for you to consider the following. 1}. I want to move those accounts in average billing to a statement; not postcards, this will allow more information on the bill. We can revise a bill as to the customer's running total whether it is a negative or plus concerning their bill. It will save us money if we continue with our regular postcards and statements. The reason I don't want to go with statements on all our accounts is the cost, the time to take to stuff 2400 accounts into envelopes and the postage increase; however, if you want to consider all our accounts to be on a full statement, it can be done. 2). I want to eliminate the delinquent notice informing the customer of the disconnect and provide that information on the original statements however, it would be difficult to put that information on the postcard. 3). The postage of course will go up from 19 to 29 which will be an increase; however, if we eliminate the disconnect notice this could help compensation somewhat. 4}. I also agree with the City of Denton that if the customer signs up in the Spring or Fall, it is to our advantage since we will actually be using more of their money in months where their bills would be less. 5). I also think if a customer has the advantage to see how much his bill is on a monthly basis it will enlighten him to be conservative and to monitor his usage. 6). I also think we should average the bills on 11 months based on 12 months billing history. 7). Customer must also sign an equal payment authorization. As to your question regarding Lone Star Gas Company's billing which adjusts monthly based on an eleven month's prior average, yes our computer can handle this with a program change.

Signature Title Agency Date Mike Eastland Executive Director North Central Texas Council of Governments Date Page 3 of 3 3/Z/94 North Central Texas Council Of Governments TO: Building Officials in North Central Texas DATE: March 4, 1994 FROM: Charles Clawson, Chairman NCTCOG's Regional Codes Coordinating Committee SUBJECT: Implementation of the North Central Texas Electrical Examination Program The Regional Codes Coordinating Committee (RCCC), consisting of representation from municipal code administration and the private sector, provides support and advice to the North Central Texas Council of Governments' (NCTCOG's) Executive Board on a wide range of municipal building codes issues. A current issue of concern to the RCCC is the existing burden on municipal staff to be administratively involved with the competency testing of electricians as part of their municipality's electrician licensing requirements. In this day of shrinking budgets and increased workloads, municipalities can no longer afford to bear this responsibility. In an effort to remove this burden and continue to protect the health, safety, and welfare of citizens of North Central Texas, the RCCC- obtained, on January 27, 1994, NCTCOG's Executive Board endorsement of the implementation of a cooperative regional program for the competency testing at various grade levels of electricians desiring to perform electrical work in this region through the attached (blue) resolution. The NCTCOG's Executive Board authorized the engagement of Southern Building Code Congress International, Inc. (SBCCI), a qualified and experienced testing agency, to prepare, administer, and grade the electrical examinations. SBCCI was chosen as the agency to provide the testing services`" after an extensive selection process conducted by RCCC's Electrician Testing Program Task Force, An Agreement will be completed between NCTCOG, on behalf of participating municipalities, and SBCCI, stipulating necessary components of the North Central Texas Electrical Examination Program. Initially, exams for the electrician grade levels of Master Electrician, Journeyman Electrician, Master Sign Electrician, and Maintenance Electrician will be offered at three locations per month; one in the Dallas area, one in the Mid Cities area, and one in the Fort Worth area. Exams for Residential Wireman, Journeyman Sign Electrician, and Elevator Electrician are currently under development and will be offered in the near future. The examination administration process will be the complete responsibility of SBCCI and will be fully financially supported by the testing fee of $45 to be paid by the applicant. There will be no funding or administrative responsibilities expected from participating municipalities. Participating municipalities will agree to accept the exam results from this program. Acceptance of these test results will serve as the applicant's fulfillment of the competency testing component of the municipality's electrician licensing requirements. With the exception of the competency exam, municipalities will retain all other electrician licensing authority and responsibility they currently possess. Municipalities wishing to participate in the program will need to take appropriate action by its governing body and have a duly authorized representative execute and return to NCTCOG the attached interlocal agreement. Model resolution and ordinance language is also attached for the convenience of those municipalities that may need it. Testing is scheduled to begin in April. Therefore, action is needed as soon as possible by those municipalities desiring to participate in the testing program. As soon as municipalities join the program, SBCCI will send them applications for the exams.
