Electric Department - Rates

Churches

Effective July 1, 2006

Availability:

Applicable to all churches which have REMS equipment installed and in use. It is understood that the primary use of these structures will occur in the evenings or on weekends. Should such REMS installation or use cease, that account shall then be billed according to the Small Commercial rate schedule including the demand charge. Energy supplied under this schedule shall not be sub-metered for resale to others.

Energy Charge:

          All energy at $.0470 per KWHR

Service Charge:   

The monthly service charge for an account inside of the City Limits will be $10.00 for each meter.  The monthly service charge for an account outside of the City Limits will be $11.00 for each meter. 

Delivery Point:

The above rates are based upon the supply of service to the entire premises through a single delivery point and metering point and at one voltage and phase.  Separate supply for the same customer at other points of consumption at different voltages or phases will be separately metered and billed.  At the City's option, energy may be metered on the primary side of the transformers for any customers requiring service at more than one secondary voltage.

Load Management Discount

For customers whose equipment is controlled by City load management system, the following discounts will be allowed:

Water heaters           2‑1/2%

Electric heat           2‑1/2%

Air conditioning   1%

For load management customers who may have only a portion of a load controlled, the City reserves the right to reduce the percentage discount.

Rules and Regulations:

Service under this classification is subject to the City of Milton‑Freewater Utilities General Rules and Regulations.

Sprinkler System Controls and Other Small Unmetered Loads:

Sprinkler system controls, intermitant lighting such as flashing traffic control devices, and other small unmetered loads can be served at the discretion of the Electric Superintendent at a flat rate of $25 per calendar year.  This fee will be due and payable by March 1st.  Service will be disconnected if payment is not received by April 1st.  The point of connection shall be at the supply side of the customers breaker panel or equipment.  The Electric Superintendent may determine that a metering installation is required, which will cause the load to be a separate account and therefore must comply with the applicable rate schedule.
