capacity. Anna shall complete Phase 2 of the plant on or before October 1, 2026, which
will allow for an annual average flow of up to 2.500,000 gallons of wastewater treatment
capacity. Anna shall continue to constrict additional phases of the plant, up to the TCEQ
permitted average annual flow of 16,000,000 gallons per day as needed to meet the needs
of Anna and its customers.
2.02 Notwithstanding any provision of this Contract, if Anna fails to timely complete
construction of a phase of the Wastewater Treatment Plant necessary to meet the

any necessary rights -of -way and easements to and from such Delivery Facilities; provided,
however, Anna does hereby consent (subject to feasibility as determined by the Director)

system easements granted to Anna. Customer shall provide Anna with sixty (60) calendar

Delivery Facilities attributable to the size increase shall be at Anna's expense. If Anna

acceptance of each facility is subject to the inspection by and written approval of the
Director.

Article 7. Rates, Charges, and Surcharges
7.01 Rates, Charges, and Surcharges are yet to be determined but once determined will
be uniformly applied to all similarly situated same -class wholesale customers that
discharge Wastewater- into the Wastewater Treatment Plant under contract with the City.
Once the Rates, Charges and Surcharges for wholesale Wastewater service is finally
determined, this article and Exhibit "C" shall be amended to specify same. However, the
rnethodolgy used to determine such rates, charges and surcharges shall be consistent with
the current terms provided in Exhibit "C". Class of wholesale customers shall be based
solely on the type of Wastwater being discharged by such customer into the Anna System,
so that customers discharging similar types of wastewater shall be charged the same
volumetric rate.
7.02 Any challenge to a rate, surcharge or fee established by the Anna City Council must
be brought within ninety (90) days after Customer is provided noticed of such adoption by
Customer submitting a written objection in accordance with the applicable provisions of
Article 24 of this Contract. Anna shall provide Customer with written notice of each such
rate increase within thirty (30) calendar days after such rate increase.
7.03 Bills for Wastewater- service are submitted to Customer on a monthly basis.
Amounts billed are due and payable not more than forty-five (45) calendar days after the
date such bill is forwarded to Customer. Bills will show current charges, as well as past -
due charges, if any. Current charges includes the amount due for service provided since the
prior billing period. Past -due charges is the total amount unpaid from all prior billings as

charges, if any, and thereafter to the current charges. Any challenge to a billing must be
submitted, in writing, to Anna within forty-five (45) calendar days of the billing date, or
any objection to the billing is waived.
7.04 If Customer disputes a bill, it shall nevertheless continue to promptly make the
disputed payment or payments. Dispute of a bill is not grounds for non-payment.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Chapter 2251 of the Texas Government Code, in the
event a payment is not paid as specified in this Contract, a finance charge of the lower of
10%, per annurn, or the maximum rate allowed by law, per annum, will be calculated from
the date that the payment was required to be made. In the event the amount finally
determined to be due is less than the full amount of the disputed bill, then the amount found
to be in excess of the amount due will be credited to the Customer's account together with
any interest Anna assessed Customer on the credited amount of the disputed bill.
7.05 The Parties agree that this Contract is a contract for goods or services under the
provisions of Subchapter I, Chapter 271, Tex. Local Gov't. Code and that services obtained

under this Contract; and (ii) all other amounts as required by law and the provisions of the
its revenue bonds or other debt obligations now or hereafter outstanding, including the
amounts required to pay all principal of and interest on such bonds and other obligations.
7.07 The Parties agree that the rates established in accordance with this Contract are
reasonable and in the public interest, and that any change in the Contract price is necessary
(1) to avoid impairing the ability of Anna to continue providing Wastewater service, (2) to
avoid casting an excessive burden on other customer or users of the Anna System, and (3)
to avoid being unduly discriminatory to or among customer classes. Customer
acknowledges that it has entered into this Contract willingly after determining, after
considering alternative sources and methods of providing for its Wastewater needs, that
entering into this Contract is in the best interests of Customer and its constituent users.
7.08 Customer represents and covenants that all payments made by it under this Contract
shall constitute reasonable and necessary operating expense of its Customer System and
that all such payments will be made from the revenues of its System. Customer represents
and has determined that the Wastewater service to be obtained from the System is
absolutely necessary and essential to the present and future operation of its Wastewater
system. Accordingly, all payments required by this Contract to be made by Customer shall
constitute reasonable and necessary operating expense of its respective system as described
herein, with the effect that the obligation to make such payments from revenues of such
systems shall have priority over any obligation to make any payments from such revenues
(whether of principal, interest, or otherwise) with respect to all bonds or other debt
obligations heretofore or hereafter issued by Customer.
7.09 Upon the occurrence of Customer's first failure to pay any amount billed for service
under this Contract, which amount remains unpaid for more than sixty (60) days after its
due date, Customer agrees to establish a security fund to be held in trust by Anna in the

billings remaining unpaid for more than sixty (60) days after the due date.

or any other development or use of the Property or any part thereof.
8.02 Customer agrees that Anna shall have the right to sample Wastewater at all
Approved Connection Points and such other locations as may be necessary to determine

Anna to
The City of Anna is currently constructing the first phase of a regional wastewater
treatment plant in the southwest portion of the City. The treatment plant will provide
sewer treatment for all development in the City of Anna west of US 75 and for adjacent
customer cities and customer MUD's. The 500,000 gal/day package plant at the facility
will come online in the Spring of 2025, and the plant capacity will increase to 2,000,000
gallons per day in 2027. The City is currently permitted for a first phase of up to
4,000,000 gallons per day. The customer communities will pay a wholesale rate to the
City of Anna per 1,000 gallons of flow. The revenues generated by this program will be
used to pay the debt service and fund the operation, maintenance, and future expansion
of the facility.
Chambers Grove Municipal Utility District Number 1 will construct a trunk sewer main
which will connect the district to the City of Anna wastewater system.
The City previously entered into an agreement with Chambers Grove Municipal Utility
District Number 1 for transport through the City of Anna wastewater system and
wastewater treatment at the Hurricane Creek Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant.
The original agreement was approved in Resolution 2022-04-1143, and is attached as
Exhibit A. At that time. the City had not calculated final rates that will be charged for the
services provided by the City. Now that more information is available regarding the final
construction costs and ongoing maintenance costs, the City has developed a rate model
to use in all contracts for this service.
The attached amended agreement has been updated to include the rates identified by
the City of Anna which will be charged to the Chambers Grove Municipal Utility District
Number 1. Staff recommends approval of this item, subject to form as approved by the
City Attorney.
