Augusta Canal – Seepage Repair at Rock Creek Outfall – Construction Change Order
Department:Utilities
Presenter:Wes Byne
Caption:Motion to approve a change order in the amount of $161,806.20
to Blair Construction, Inc. for the additional construction
services needed on the Augusta Canal – Seepage Repair at Rock
Creek Outfall Project.
Background:This Project was developed to repair the Augusta Canal
embankment near the Rock Creek Outfall to prevent further
seepage and to stabilize the embankment slope. The original
construction contract to Blair Construction was approved by the
Commission on October 29, 2015 for the amount of $74,560.80.
Analysis:Although the construction was originally approved by the
Commission and awarded in 2015, due to canal access conflicts
from the critical stages of another AUD project (i.e. Goodrich
Raw Water Pump Station Expansion) this project could not
begin until January 2019. Due to this delay, additional Federal
Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) construction
requirements had to be met, altering the original project design.
During construction, additional leakages were found in the areas
adjacent to the original project site that required extended repair
efforts. This change order request for $161,806.20 reflects the
additional materials needed as well as their installation. AUD
has reviewed Blair Construction's additional construction
services invoice and finds it to be fair and reasonable.
Financial Impact:Funding in the amount of $161,806.20 is available from
accounts: G/L 507043410-5425110 J/L 80320115-5425110
Alternatives:No alternatives are recommended.
Recommendation:AUD recommends that these additional Construction services
with Blair Construction Co. be approved.

Award Utilities Water Meter Bid to Various Vendors
Department:Utilities - Wes Byne, Director
Presenter:Wes Byne, Director
Caption:Approve Awarding of Utilities Bid #20-218 to Approved
Bidders.
Background:The 2020 bid for meters was advertised and there were five
qualified respondents. AUD has reviewed all respondents and
recommended award based on all available information.
Analysis:AUD recommended specifications in its bid to provide for the
best meters to serve our customers and maximize revenue while
also keeping the price as reasonable as possible. There were
lower bids on some meters resulting in minor cost savings.
However, when comparing the risk from the first-time compliant
bid on an integral part of the revenue process, AUD
recommends Badger Meter for all 2” and below Positive
Displacement meters and awarding Bid #20-218 as noted on the
attached schedule, with preferred bidder status given to Badger
Meters in the noted categories.
Financial Impact:AUD analyzed all the items on the bid sheet and feels this is the
most cost effective recommendation for AUD and our customers
considering meter cost, durability, ease of maintenance and
customer service.
Alternatives:None recommended
Recommendation:Approve Awarding of Bid #20-218 to the vendors noted on the
attached schedule.

Brookstone at Rae's Creek Deed of Dedication
Department:Utilities
Presenter:Wes Byne
Caption:Consider approving the Deed of Dedication for Brookstone at
Rae's Creek.
Background:Around 2010-2012 a development was started off Amli Way.
The project went bankrupt and was purchased by Terranova
Development Corp. Inadvertently, no Deed of Dedication was
completed.
Analysis:Terranova is still constructing town homes. The utilities, in the
original sections, need to be dedicated, because Terranova's
other projects are connecting into them. The water and sanitary
sewer were inspected and passed. Acceptance of this deed shall
dedicate, as required, the water and sanitary sewer mains, along
with the applicable easements, to Augusta, for operation and
maintenance.
Financial Impact:All costs and repairs will be borne by Augusta. Revenue will be
generated by the sale of water and sanitary sewer taps and the
monthly billings.
Alternatives:Do not approve the Deed of Dedication for Brookstone at Rae's
Creek.
Recommendation:Approve the Deed of Dedication for Brookstone at Rae's Creek.

Bussey Road Paving and Other Drainage Matters Update
Department:Engineering
Presenter:
Caption:Receive update regarding Bussey Road Paving and other
Drainage Matters. Also Authorize Analysis Section
Recommended Actions. Requested by AED.
Background:Augusta Commission Engineering Services Committee on
11/27/2018 discussed paving of Bussey road at the request of
one of the residents, however, action was tabled until after road
drainage conveyance assessment is completed and findings are
evaluated. Augusta Engineering Department (AED) verified
ownership of Bussey Road and also made contact with impacted
property owners to determine whether property owners are
agreeing to donate needed right-of-way (ROW) as required by
Augusta Commission Dirt Road Paving Policy. AED
determination was that the road is Private and majority of
adjacent property owners will not donate needed ROW. On
August 18, 2020, Augusta Commission authorized funding for
completing design feasibility study evaluating the impacts to the
private properties by running a preliminary design profile and
cross-sections of the proposed road improvements. This task
order is complete (see Exhibit A). Engineer’s construction
estimate of probable cost is around $600K. However, majority
of property owners still are not willing to donate needed ROW.
In addition to Bussey Road, there are other drainage related
matters that AED is addressing and listed below. All these are
primarily related to drainage impact on private properties.
i) 1918 Colony Park Road / Graced Kennels (access
driveway reconstruction) ii) 210 King Chapel Road
(rear lot ponding & drainage) iii) 3945 Carolyn
Street (riprap ditch outfall/piping) iv) 3010
Meadowbrook Drive (drainage ditch improvements)
v ) Fountain Head Condominium (Drainage &
Flooding) vi) 115 Avondale Drive (Drainage &
Flooding)
Analysis:AED is making the following recommendations and accordingly
seeking Augusta Commission approval and authorization. i)
Bussey Road Paving Recommendation: Property owners denied
ROW donation request. Close the Project and incorporate it to
Forest Hills Drainage Basin Improvements project. ii) 1918
Colony Park Road / Graced Kennels (access driveway
reconstruction)- Recommendation: Substantially completed; cost
around $377K. iii) 210 King Chapel Road (rear lot ponding &
drainage) Recommendation: under construction; cost around
$161K. iv) 3945 Carolyn Street (riprap ditch outfall/piping)
Recommendation: completed; cost around $88K v) 3010
Meadowbrook Drive (drainage ditch improvements)
Recommendation: Property owner denied easement request.
TABLE the Project. vi) Fountain Head Condominium (Drainage
& Flooding) Recommendation: AED determined periodic
flooding is due to onsite conditions. Close the Request with No
Further Action by AED. vii) 115 Avondale Drive (Drainage &
Flooding) Recommendation: Continue drainage easements
acquisition. Authorize condemnation if need arises. In addition,
AED is recommending that Augusta Commission may consider
cost-benefit analysis prior to directing AED to mitigate impacts
in type similar to aforementioned impacts.
Financial Impact:N/A
Alternatives:N/A
Recommendation:Receive update regarding Bussey Road Paving and other
Drainage Matters. Also Authorized Analysis Section

Roadway System File Reference: 21-014 (A)
Department:Engineering
Presenter:

Background:Floyd Street is a public road with connectivity to the Augusta
Public Roads network through Beacon Station Alley. This Alley
connects Floyd Street to McCauley Street. Previously Floyd
Street connectivity was by Roulette Lane, however Beacon
Station Development required abandonment of that section of
Roulette Lane. Alternate connectivity was provided by
construction of to be deeded Alley, however, Alley stayed as
“Private”. Recently a request was made through Augusta
Housing and Community Development Department for
acceptance of this Alley (Street) in the Augusta Road System.
Accordingly, Augusta Engineering Department (AED) staff
visited the street and completed its assessment. It appears that
the Street right-of-way is comparable with adjacent public roads
right-of-way and in acceptable condition.
Analysis:Given that the Street in question provides connectivity to public
roadways, it is AED recommendation to accept this Street into
Augusta Georgia roadway system upon receipt of certified plat
& proof of ownership, deed of dedication and required
documentations as determined by Augusta Engineering
Department.
Financial Impact:No direct financial impact. The road will be included into city
roadway maintenance program.
Alternatives:1). Do not approve.
Recommendation:Approve AND Accept Alley with its Right-of-Way (depicted as
Tract “B-1” on attached As-built) Connecting Floyd Street
(Public Road) to McCauley Street (Public Road) into Augusta,

Rate Study
Environmental Services Department
July 6, 2021
Prepared by:
Geosyntec Consultants
Project Review
Augusta’s Environmental Services Department (ESD) retained Geosyntec
Consultants (Geosyntec) in March 2021 to conduct a rate study for the services
provided by ESD.
This project was organized and executed into three tasks. This presentation contains a
summary of all tasks including recommendations
•Task 1.0 Data Review and Financial Modeling
•Task 2.0 Rate Survey (Benchmarking)
•Task 3.0 Recommendations
2
3
Τhe rate structures for collections (Fund 542)and Landfill
Fund 542)funds should be analyzed in light of Augusta’s
revenue policy:
“Augusta,Georgia will establish all user charges and fees at a
level related to the full cost (operating,direct,indirect,and
capital)of providing the service.Augusta,Georgia will review
fees/charges annually.”
“Augusta,Georgia will consider market rates and charges
levied by other public and private organizations for similar
services in establishing tax rates,fees and charges.”
(Source:2020 Augusta Approved Budget)
Criteria for Establishing Rates
1) Do rates allow Augusta to recover full cost of service?
2) How do they compare to “Market” rates?
4
Current Fund 542 Fees
•In place since 2014
5
Fund 541 Disposal Fees
•Published rates:
•MSW customers may also charged a three percent (3%) “environmental”
and a $0.75 per ton state fee.
•Negotiated rates have been provided to certain private haulers by letter
agreement or contract
•Nonprofit (municipal) rate = $25 per ton
•C&D rate introduced in 2019 =$20.60 per yard is not currently utilized
6
Rates
0 to 1,999 Tons Per Month $33.50 Per Ton
2,000 to 4,999 Per Month $30.50 Per Ton
5,000 to 9,999 Per Month $27.50 Per Ton
>10,000 Tons Per Month $24.50 Per Ton
Two primary criteria were selected
to determine the sufficiency of
current rates:
1)Whether the fee structure generated
sufficient revenue to cover annual costs of
services for each fund and
2) Whether each fund has sufficient
cash reserves.
7
Based on these two criteria our analysis
focused on four questions:
1)Does current annual fee revenue cover current annual cost of service?
2)Will forecast revenue cover forecast costs over the next five-years?
3)Does each fund have an adequate level of cash reserves?, and
4) What does the forecast suggest about required future level of reserves?
8
Major Findings:
Fund 542 -Collection Services
•Augusta has successfully provided residential collection services under a
very stable fee structure.Rates have not been adjusted since 2014.
•FY2019 and FY2020 revenue generated from customer collection fees was
sufficient to cover the cost of services.
•Collection Services has sufficient cash reserves.
•Rates Augusta charge for collection services are generally within the range
found in our regional benchmark survey.
9
Major Findings:
Fund 541 –Waste Management Landfill
•Augusta has successfully provided continuous landfill disposal services
without raising prices since rates were last reset in 2014.
•Augusta is in a favorable position,the landfill has a large
remaining life. However, future construction is expensive (~$200-300k
per acre) and sufficient current cash flow plus reserves are required.
•FY2019 and FY2020 revenue generated from customers disposal fees and
to a lesser extent CNG sale was sufficient to cover the cost of services.
•As of 12/31/20 Fund 541 –Landfill does have sufficient short-term (1-3
year) cash reserves.
•Landfill does NOT have sufficient long-term (5-10 year plus) cash
reserves.
10
Major Findings:
Fund 541 (Landfill) Cont.
Long-term Reserves
•Our estimate of a minimum best practices level of long-term reserves for
Fund 541 is $45-50 million.
•Actual reserves were $35 million as of 12/31/20
•Landfill operations require a higher cash reserves than collection operations
•A best practice is fully funded long-term closure and post closure liabilities
as well as a reserve for short-term spending spikes resulting from
equipment and landfill construction.
•A minimum cash reserve of 25% of the operating budget is also a standard
best practice
11
Major Findings:
Fund 541 (Landfill).
Rates:
•Posted disposal rates are generally in the range found in our regional
benchmark survey.
•However, the way disposal rates are actually charged Augusta customers
falls outside the posted disposal fees (also called “gate rates”).
•Augusta’s posted disposal fee structure provides for tiered discounts based
on the volume a customer brings to the landfill. Our evaluation suggests
that no customer discounts strictly follow the posted tiered rates.
•It appears that over time discounts have been granted by policy, contract or
letter agreement. Discounts apply to two distinct groups including 1) three
commercial haulers and 2) municipal customers.
12
Major Findings:
Fund 541 (Landfill).
Rates:
•The posted (undiscounted) rate is $33.50 per ton for municipal solid waste
(MSW). In addition, Augusta charges a 3% “environmental fee” and a
state fee of $.75 cents per ton for a total of $35.26.
•Only two MSW customer groups are charged this rate: Augusta
Residential (including inter-governmental), and Small Commercial
•Larger Haulers and Nonprofit (municipals) receive $8.00 –10.00 discounts
13
Major Findings:
Fund 541 (Landfill).
Rates:
•The undiscounted volume customers Augusta & Small Commercial
Haulers represent 38% of volume and 45% of total revenue*.
•The groups with discounts (Large Haulers and Nonprofit) account for
approximately 59% of volume and 52% of total projected revenue.
* Total revenue less discounts.
14
Major Findings:
Landfill -Volume:
•There is large forecast decrease in disposal volumes between 2020 and
2021 which is likely to result in a $3.8 million year to year decrease in
revenue.
15
2018-2020 Walton Way project
2014 Ice Storm Debris
Major Findings:
Landfill –Expense per Ton:
•The total per ton cost of service (total expenditures/volume received) calculation is
sensitive to volume changes.
Using 2021 budget and a projected volume of 420,000 tons the cost per ton is
$44.13 as shown in Column (A)
Again using 2021 budget but with 512,090 tons (2020 volume)the cost per ton
calculation would be $36.19 as shown in Column (B)
16
Major Findings:
Landfill –Expense per Ton:
•The landfill has significant capital needs which changes from year to year.
•It can represent $16.00 per ton plus per year.
•Even at a minimized capital expenditure level of $2.0 million the cost can
be $4.00-$5.00 per ton.
17
Major Findings:
Landfill –Revenue vs Expense per Ton:
•Average revenue is $29.90 per ton net of discounts
•The year over year decrease in volume from 512,090 to 420,000 combined
with small future volume growth suggests the cost of service will be in the
range of $29.00 to $40.00 per ton (net of ~$4.00 for discount expense which is
recorded in “Operating” expenses).
18
* Budget = 2021
Major Findings:
Landfill –Revenue vs Expense per Ton:
•With average tip fee of $29.90 per ton (after
discounts) and a cost of service of $29.00 to $40.00
per ton (net of discount expense) when volume is ~
420,000 tpy , revenue is not sufficient to increase nor
maintain reserves.
•The five-year volume and financial forecast
combined with a less than recommended long-term
cash reserve balance makes pricing an important and
current issue.
19
Recommendations (1-3):
•We recommend that the cash reserve for Fund 541 be increased from current $35.0
million to $45-50 million over a period of 5 -10 years.
•We recommend that a policy evaluation be conducted with respect to the disposal
rate structure. Municipalities which own landfills must balance (i) attracting
sufficient tonnages to operate in an efficient volume range, (ii) generating enough
revenue to cover required costs, maintain or build reserves, (iii) wisely use
remaining disposal capacity and (iv) generally serving the needs and interests of
Augusta.
•Because of lower projected volumes and a need to raise cash reserves, rates will
need to be raised or the total cost of services needs to be reduced. We believe both
should be looked at more closely through a focused study. The target impact for
combined revenue increases or expense decreases is $3.2 -$4.0 million a year.
20
Recommendations (4-6):
•No discount is provided to Augusta’s residential volume. We recommend a policy
evaluation to determine if this was intentional or the consequence of multiple
decisions over time. Often municipal landfill owners provide discounted pricing
for their internal waste and a “gate” rate to all commercial users of the facility, it
is less common that internal waste is charged at the highest rate.
•The current pricing structure conveys a competitive advantage to haulers who
have discounts in obtaining new or retaining existing customers. A common
approach is to operate a “disposal neutral” market offering one price to
commercial haulers which as a result does not convey a disposal pricing
advantage.
•One rationale for volume discounts is to make it economically more feasible for
customers to bring waste from further distances (i.e. offset the additional
transportation cost) Landfill customers do commonly evaluate cost on a
transportation plus disposal (T&D) basis and the relationship between distance
and transportation cost is direct. An additional study would need to be made on
facts surrounding this issue.
21
Recommendations (7-8):
•Removing commercial or municipal discounts may result, in at least short-term,
reductions of volume. As such, Augusta would need to prepare for this by
developing cost management contingencies.
•The current disposal discounts are significant and amount to over $2.0 million
annually. Recalculation or elimination of discounts would need to be phased but
should be can be part of the revised rate structure and is a key component in
addressing long-term reserves.
Total landfill volume for FY2021 is forecast to be in the range of 400,000 to
420,000. Discounts currently apply to a projected 59% or 246,000 of the expected
2021 tons. The remaining undiscounted tons for 2021 are 38% of total volume or
approximately 168,000 tons. As such, for a price increase to have a multi-million
dollar impact it would need to apply to all tons.
22
Recommendations (9-12):
•Based on our preliminary analysis it appears that for commercial customers in the
immediate market a $34-36.00 disposal rate should be competitive with the best
available alternatives.
•Based on the current financial picture the collection fees for Fund 542 cover the
current cost of services and have enabled reserves to be built. However, in the
forecast period the cost of the collection contract is rising and the cost of disposal
of those tons will also be rising. Since rates have not been increased since 2014
and costs are increasing, we recommend considering an increase that would be
reviewed for adjustment every few years.
•Eliminate $10 per ton “beneficial” rate.

DRAFT M EMORANDUM
TO: Mark Mehall, Augusta Environmental Services
FROM: Bill Gaffigan, MBA, CVA
Jill Gaffigan
DATE: 06 July 2021
SUBJECT: Executive Summary and Recommendations
Augusta Environmental Services Rate Study
Augusta’s Environmental Services Department (ESD) retained Geosyntec Consultants
(Geosyntec) in March 2021 to conduct a rate study for the services provided by ESD. Augusta
has a revenue policy which states:
“Augusta, Georgia will establish all user charges and fees at a level related to the full cost
(operating, direct, indirect, and capital) of providing the service.”
“Augusta, Georgia will consider market rates and charges levied by other public and private
organizations for similar services in establishing tax rates, fees and charges.”
As such, the overall objective of the study was to assess if the current fees structures for ESD
operations managed under Fund 542 - Collection Services and Fund 541 -Waste Management
(landfill) adequately covers the cost of services and generally reflects market rates for the
region.
This memorandum provides an Executive Summary describing major findings regarding
sufficiency of current rate structure to cover cost of services, forecast future cost of services,
regional benchmark survey of fees, and recommendations. Additional detail is provided in a
Power Point Presentation which will be provided under separate cover.

Data Collection and Analysis
As an initial step Geosyntec made a data request to ESD on data regarding detailed financial
reports and budgets, assets, capital improvement plans, equipment replacement schedules,
inbound waste receipts and customer details, among others. Geosyntec conducted a financial
analysis of the two funds and developed a financial model. Additional data was obtained, and
analysis was shared during periodic project status meetings and working sessions conducted with
ESD staff remotely as well an in-person meeting on March 30, 2021. County staff were open
and cooperative during the review. Geosyntec also conducted a survey of collection and disposal
fees charged by regional municipalities.
Two primary criteria were selected to determine the sufficiency of current rates including
whether the fee structure generated sufficient revenue to cover annual cost costs of services for
each fund and whether each fund has sufficient cash reserves. Based on these criteria our
analysis focused on four questions: 1) does the current annual fee revenue cover current annual
cost of services, 2) does forecasted revenue cover forecasted costs over the next five-years, 3)
does each fund have an adequate level of cash reserves, and 4) what does the forecast suggest
about future level of reserves?
Major Findings from the Rate Study Review
The following represent major findings from Geosyntec’s assessment:
Fund 542 - Collection Services
• Augusta has successfully provided residential collection services with a very stable fee
structure. They have not been adjusted since 2014.
• FY2019 and FY2020 revenue generated from customer collection fees was sufficient to cover the cost of services.
• Collection Services has sufficient cash reserves.
• FY2019 (last audited year available) Fund 542 had a net position of $19.8 million (source: 2019 CAFR) and cash of $14.9 million. Operating results for 2020, subject to final accounting adjustments, suggest this amount will increase. A standard best practice is a
minimum cash reserve of at least 25% of an operating budget. The adopted budget FY2021 is $22 million and as such the cash reserve meets this minimum best practice recommendation.
• Fund 542 has predictable revenue and expenditures and historically few large short-term
expenditure spikes. Approximately 94% of revenue is from user fees for weekly residential
services, with the balance from interfund transfers for services to other Augusta departments. The most significant expense is for residential waste collection, provided by Waste Management and Orion under a contract which has annual limits to year to year rate increases of 50% of CPI inflation index.
Executive Summary and Recommendations
06 July 2021 Page 3
MEM 2015
• Rates Augusta charges for collection fee are generally in the range found in our regional
benchmarks.
Fund 541 – Waste Management (Landfill)
• Augusta has successfully provided continuous landfill disposal services without raising prices since rates were last reset in 2014.
• Augusta is in a favorable position as its landfill has a large remaining life as measured by the remaining (unbuilt) disposal capacity. However, building this unused disposal capacity is expensive (~$200-300k per acre) and sufficient current cashflow plus reserves are required.
• FY2019 and FY2020 revenue generated from customers disposal fees and to a lesser extent, CNG sales was sufficient to cover the cost of services. This was primarily due to revenue from higher disposal tonnages related in part to a large temporary soil excavation project.
• As of 12/31/20 Fund 541 – Waste Management (Landfill) does have sufficient short-term
(1-2 year) cash reserves.
• As of 12/31/20 Fund 541 – does NOT have sufficient long-term (10 year plus) cash reserves.
• FY2020 fund 541 had unrestricted cash reserves (cash plus investments) of approximately $35.0 million. Landfill operations require a higher cash reserves than collection operations due to long-term closure and post closure liabilities as well as short-term and medium (1-5 year) spending spikes resulting from equipment and landfill construction expenditures to build and make available short-term disposal capacity. In addition to a minimum cash
reserve of 25% of the operating budget, a standard best practice is to also have a fully funded closure/post closure (PCC) liability reserve and an equipment and construction reserve.
• Our estimate of a minimum best practices level of long-term reserve for Fund 541 is $46
million.
• Our estimate includes $32.0 million for closure/post closure car plus $10 million for equipment and construction and $4.0 million minimum for an operating reserve
• For Fund 541 Posted disposal rates are generally in the range found in our regional
benchmarks.
• However, the range of actual disposal rates charged Augusta customers falls outside the posted disposal fees (also called “gate rates” as posted at the landfill gate).
• Augusta’s posted disposal fee structure provides for tiered discounts based on the volume
a customer brings to the landfill. Our evaluation suggest that no customer receives a discount based on the posted tiered rates.
Executive Summary and Recommendations
06 July 2021 Page 4
MEM 2015
• It appears that over a period of time discounts have been granted by policy, contract or
letter agreement. These discounts apply to two distinct groups including three commercial haulers and municipal customers.
• The stated landfill gate rate is $33.50 for municipal solid waste (MSW). In addition, MSW waste is also subject to a 3% “environmental fee” and a state fee of $.75 cents per ton for
a total of $35.26. Only certain groups are charged the $35.26
• Our analysis of the FY2020 results suggests that based on a pricing analysis that customers can be put into three groups: 1) Augusta’s Residential customers and smaller haulers 3) municipal customers (nonprofit) and 4) larger commercial haulers. Group #1 pays the
highest, undiscounted rates at $35.26 per ton. Group #3 pays the lowest disposal fee with
an average rate of $25.00 per ton. Group #4 on average pays the next lowest fee with a calculated net rate of approximately $27.50 per ton.
• There is a large forecast decrease in disposal volumes between 2020 and 2021 which is
likely to result in a $3.8 million year to year decrease in revenue.
• Volumes are forecast to decrease 22% in 2021 on lower volume primarily as a result of the completion of a major soil remediation project which directed significant volumes to the landfill between 2018-2020.
• The five-year volume forecast assumes modest growth after a decrease in 2021.
• Residential and economic growth is forecast to be positive but modest. Augusta has experienced a decrease in certain regional municipal customer volumes in 2021. There is also the potential to lose up to 1-10% of total volume during the forecast period to the
proposed Airplane Road construction and demolition landfill which was granted
consistency by Augusta in 2020.
• For FY2021 our forecast (and the approved budget) assumes an approximately $3 million deficit between fee revenue and total cost of services. We generated multiple forecast scenarios which suggest there is potential that this will likely be experienced during
multiple years during the five-year forecast period. This results from lower volumes and higher short-term costs related labor, closure construction, cell construction and equipment purchases.
• Landfills cost structures, on a cost per ton basis, are highly sensitive to volume changes.
For FY2021 based on budgeted costs but a forecast of 420,000 tons (budgeted tons were ~ 398,000) the total cost per ton is $44.13, which is higher than the highest rate charged. The same cost structure spread over the 512,090 tons received in 2020 is approximately $8.00 per ton less. The budget assumes $3.0 million for closure construction, $1.7 million for heavy equipment and vehicles, and $2.0 million for depreciation (which is the amortized
cost of capital investments). If we recalculated the cost per tons using a minimized capital number of $2.0 million the cost is $32.88 per ton at 2021 forecasted volumes and $26.96 at the higher volume of tons in 2019. With minimum capital and higher volumes, the cost and revenue per ton at approximately $27.00 are similar.
Executive Summary and Recommendations
06 July 2021 Page 5
MEM 2015
• Another perspective is that on a combined basis Funds 541 and 542 had approximately $50 million ($14.9 + 35.0) in cash reserves at the end of FY2020 which is near the combined recommended minimum balance, which is a positive condition. However, the expected deficit for 2021 and likely deficits in the forecast periods will reduce reserves .
• The volume and financial forecast combined with a less than recommended long-term cash reserve balance makes pricing an important issue.
Executive Summary and Recommendations
06 July 2021 Page 6
MEM 2015
Recommendations
1. We recommend that the cash reserve for Fund 541 be increased from current $35.0
million to $45-50 million over a period of time.
2. We recommend that a policy evaluation needs to be conducted with respect to the
disposal rate structure. Municipalities which own landfills have to balance attracting
sufficient tonnages to operate in an efficient volume range while generating enough
revenue to cover required costs, maintain or build reserves, wisely use remaining disposal
capacity and generally serve the needs and interests of Augusta.
3. Because of lower projected volumes and need to raise cash reserves, rates will need to be
raised or total cost of services needs to be reduced. We believe both should be looked at
more closely through a focused study. The target impact for combined revenue increases
or expense decreases is $3.2 - $4.0 million a year.
4. The current actual pricing structure provides no discounts to Augusta’s residential
customers. This situation needs further evaluation to determine at a policy level if this
was intentional or the consequence of multiple decisions over time. Often municipal
owners provide discounted disposal for their internal waste and other municipalities and
charge a “gate” rate to all commercial users of the facility, it is less common that internal
waste is charged at the highest rate.
5. The current pricing structure conveys a competitive advantage to haulers who have
discounts in obtaining new or retaining existing customers. This is an additional policy
question that should be evaluated. Some municipalities which own the only MSW
disposal facility choose to operate a “disposal neutral” market with respect to commercial
customers. They offer one price to commercial haulers which as a result does not
convey a disposal pricing advantage.
6. Our understanding is that one rationale for providing the discounts historically was to
make it economically more feasible for commercial haulers or municipalities to bring the
waste to Augusta’s landfill from further distances, thus making the landfill more
competitive. In other words, to offset the additional transportation cost. Landfill
customers commonly evaluate cost on a transportation plus disposal (T&D) basis and the
relationship between distance and transportation cost is direct. Additional study would
need to be made on facts surrounding this issue.
Executive Summary and Recommendations
06 July 2021 Page 7
MEM 2015
7. Removing commercial or municipal discounts may result, in at least short-term,
reductions of volume. As such Augusta would need to prepare for this by developing
cost management contingencies.
8. The current disposal discounts are significant and amount to $1.5 to $2.0 million
annually. Recalculation or elimination of discounts would need to be phased but should
be can be part of the revised rate structure and is a key component in addressing long-
term reserves.
Total landfill volume for FY202 is forecast to be in the range of 400,000 to 420,000.
Discounts currently apply to a projected 59% or 246,000 of the expected 2021 tons. The
remaining undiscounted tons for 2021 total 38% of total volume or approximately
168,000 tons. As such, for a price increase to have a multi-million dollar impact it
would need to apply to all tons.
9. Based on our preliminary analysis it appears that for commercial customers in the
immediate market a $34-36.00 disposal rate should be competitive with alternatives.
10. Based on the current financial picture the collection fees for Fund 542 cover the current
cost of services and have enabled reserves to be built. However, in the forecast period the
cost of the collection contract is rising and the cost of disposal of those tons will also be
rising. Since rates have not been increased since 2014 and costs are increasing, we
recommend considering an increase that would be reviewed for adjustment every few
years.

Speed Hump Request for Bellemeade Drive
Department:Engineering
Presenter:
Caption:Approve the installation of four (4) speed humps along
Bellemeade Drive with a construction cost of $14,000. Also
approve the creation of a new speed hump fee district for the
parcels adjacent to Bellemeade Drive. Funding is available in
SPLOST IV Recapture funds.
Background:The residents of this area requested to go through the speed
hump process. The speed survey showed that the majority of the
vehicles traveling along this street were going 10 mph over the
posted speed limit. Over 75% of the property owners adjacent to
Bellemeade Drive signed the required petition. The Augusta
Engineering Department will install four (4) speed humps along
Bellemeade Drive per policy standards. The upfront cost to
install the speed humps will be $14,000. The fee per lot will be
added to the property tax bill at a rate of $35 annually to cover
the cost of construction, operations, and maintenance.
Analysis:Based on the current cost of materials and labor, the cost to
install one standard speed hump is $3,500. Per the adopted speed
hump policy, four (4) speed humps will be installed to calm
traffic and reduce the overall vehicle speeds.
Financial Impact:Install four speed humps along Bellemeade Drive at $3,500
each. $14,000 total cost funded with SPLOST IV Recapture
funds.
Alternatives:1) Approve installation of street humps along Bellemeade Drive.
2) Do not approve.
Recommendation:Approve Alternative Number One.
