BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City establish a plant investment fee (PIF) upon
those developments and redevelopments that create the need for or increase the demands on
the Water Reclamation Plant. The PIF shall be established as an Equivalent Residential Unit
*(ERU) as follows:

Year 2010 2011 12012 2013 2014 2015
PIF $2,500 1 $2,600 1 $2,700 1 $2,800 $2,900 $3,000
Multiple dwelling units with up to three units in the same building, having one or more water
meters, will be charged the lesser of 80% of the cost of one Equivalent Residential Unit PIF for
each unit. Buildings containing more than three dwelling units will be charged 80% of the cost
of one Equivalent Residential Unit PIF for each unit or 50% of the per fixture unit fee as defined
by the 2009 Minnesota Plumbing Code Chapter 4715.3800, subpart 8, shown below for a 5/8" x'
1/4" meter and the number of installed fixture units up to a maximum PIF of 3.0 times the 2" meter
PIF. For purposes of this resolution, the term "Residential Unit" shall include seasonal public
outdoor restroom facilities.
Non-residential Developments:
New and redeveloped non-residential developments that do not have a discharge permit from
the Water Reclamation Plant will have a Plant Investment Fee based on the size of each
installed water meter, excluding those designated by Rochester Public Utilities as being installed
as irrigation meters.
The minimum meter size will be 5/8" x 3/4" and the PIF shown below is based on 25 fixture units
Ws defined by the 2009 Minnesota Plumbing Code, Chapter 4715.3800, subpart 8, using the
public use values shown. The PIF for the 5/8" x 3/4" meter will be prorated based on the per
fixture unit fee shown and the number of installed fixture units.

T•The PIF based on meter size will be as follows:

In the event that an existing development or redevelopment'requires that a larger meter be
installed, the PIF will be based on the difference in cost of the meters in the year the change is
made. No refund will be made if a smaller meter is installed.
Permitted Non-residential Developments
This section applies only to the commercial and industrial developments that have industrial
discharge permits with the Water Reclamation Plant that specify the allowable flows and loads
that may be discharged. The commercial or industrial developments that have industrial
discharge permits with the Water Reclamation Plant that do not specify allowable flows and
•loads that may be discharged are subject to the PIF based on water meter size as described in
the previous section. When there is a requirement that the discharge limits be increased, a
Plant Investment Fee will be determined based on the Equivalent Residential Unit fee. These
developments pay a high strength waste surcharge on their monthly bill based on their usage,
therefore the PIF will be based on 5 % of the rates determined for an ERU. The following are
unit rates that will be used for determining the PIF:
