(d) The value of the work covered by the permit shall be determined by either the City of Boulder Valuation Table or the estimated value of the work covered by the permit provided by the applicant at time of application.

(1) City of Boulder Valuation Table means a table of square foot construction values based on type of construction and use. The City has adopted the August 2011 version of the cost data as published by the International Code Council.

(2) The cost per square foot values from the City of Boulder Valuation Table shall be applied to the area identified in the permit application for the project. Such area of a project shall include new, added and reconfigured construction areas for which the permit is sought. When the reconfiguration involves linear elements such as partition walls or new openings in existing walls, the work area shall be calculated by multiplying the length of the element by a width of four feet to determine the square footage to apply the valuation table.

(3) Building permit fees shall be based on the construction valuation in the City of Boulder Valuation Table, which includes without limitation: foundations, structural and nonstructural building components, electrical, plumbing, mechanical and interior finish materials that are within work requiring a permit.

(e) When there is significant variation in the valuation determined by the City of Boulder Valuation Table and the estimated valuation provided by the applicant, the applicant may request that the city manager consider a valuation modification. The city manager may reduce the amount of the estimated valuation to be used to calculate the building permit fees and the percentage tax estimate if the manager finds, from a written request submitted by the responsible person including a narrative describing the support for a finding of each criteria, and a list of all costs associated with the construction project:

(1) The scope of the project documented in the permit application does not meet the characteristics of a defined occupancy or align with the strict application of the City of Boulder Valuation Table;

(2) The project complies with the intent and purposes of other applicable building code requirements and does not negatively impact the public health, accessibility, life and fire safety or structural requirements of the project; and

(2) Definitions:

(A) "Block Rate Structure" is the water budget rate structure which includes Blocks 1-5. These blocks represent an increasing block rate structure such that the price of water increases as more water is used, particularly when the amount of water used exceeds the customer's water budget. This rate structure is intended to:

• promote water conservation and the efficient use of water;

• support community goals;

• reflect the value of water;

• send a price signal to customers who waste water;

• recover needed revenues for administration, operations, maintenance, capital projects, debt payments and reserves for the water utility;

• avoid additional costs of new water development; and

• avoid additional costs of new and expanded water treatment.

The rate structure provides an individualized water budget to each customer that is expected to meet the customer's specific water needs. The revenues generated from the block rate structure will be used to satisfy the quantity charge portion of the basic revenue requirements of the water utility.

(B) "Monthly water budget" means the amount of water allocated to the water utility customers to meet their anticipated watering needs for the month. The monthly water budget shall be the indoor and/or outdoor allocation for each water utility customer. The allocation shall be based on reasonable and necessary indoor and/or outdoor use, water conservation, and other relevant factors associated with water use in the City. The allocations shall be defined by rules and guidelines issued by the city manager.

(c) Bulk water and metered hydrant rate: $8.00 per thousand gallons of water used. (Service charges do not apply.)

(d) Irrigation water leased on an annual basis: Colorado Big Thompson $29.00 per acre foot; all other based on cost of assessment plus ten percent administrative fee or $29.00 per acre foot, whichever is greater.

Quantity	Inside City	Outside City
Per 1,000 gallons of billable usage	$4.02	$6.00

(2) Consumers with sewage strengths exceeding two hundred twenty mg/l TSS, twenty-five mg/l NH₃-N or two hundred thirty mg/l BOD shall pay the quantity charge for average strength sewage and, additionally, $355.00 per one thousand pounds of sewage which exceeds such sewage strengths for TSS, $2,355.00 per one thousand pounds of sewage which exceeds such sewage strengths for NH₃-N, and $515.00 per one thousand pounds of sewage which exceeds such sewage strengths for BOD.

(3) The quantity charge for all residential accounts with average strength sewage will be based on each property's Average Winter Consumption ("AWC") from the last AWC computation period or the number of thousand gallons of water actually consumed during the month, whichever is lower. AWC means the average number of thousand gallons of water use per month reflected on an account's utility bill for the most recent consecutive months of December, January, February and March. For accounts registering no water use in one or more monthly billing periods, an average will be established based on those months in which there was usage, historical records or other available relevant data. The average for billing purposes will be recalculated in April of each year.

(4) The quantity charge for all nonresidential accounts with average strength sewage will be billed as follows:

(A) Those accounts with only an indoor water budget allocation will be billed on the actual number of thousand gallons of water consumed.

(B) Those accounts that have both an indoor and an outdoor water budget allocation will be billed based on the actual number of thousand gallons of water consumed or indoor water budget allocation, whichever is lower.

(C) Wastewater user charges shall not be assessed against irrigation-only accounts.

Monthly water budget options and the allocations associated with each option shall be defined by rules and guidelines issued by the city manager.

(5) For any new user connecting to the utility, or for a user making a change in the use of the premises or making a substantial expansion of the premises, the city manager will make an estimate of water consumed during an average winter month based upon a count of plumbing fixtures, consumption of similar users, indoor water budget allocation or such other information that under all the circumstances is relevant in making such a determination. Such estimate when made will be used in charging for sewer service until the first month of the AWC computation period, at which time actual water use or indoor water budget allocation will be used to determine sewer quantity charges.

(6) The city manager may require any user of the wastewater utility to meter water used from wells or sources other than the water utility of the City. The manager may use any reasonable method to establish the wastewater service charges to such user.
