A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, ADOPTING RATES,
FEES AND CHARGES PURSUANT TO THE REQUIREMENTS
AND AUTHORITY OF CHAPTER 3.46 OF TITLE 3
OF THE RANCHO CUCAMONGA MUNICIPAL CODE.
A. RECITALS.
(1) The City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga has previously adopted
Chapter 3.46 of Title 3 of the Rancho Cucamonga Municipal Code establishing
Electricity Service Rules and Regulations and authorizing that the rates, fees and
charges arising, directly or indirectly, under said legislation be adopted pursuant to
resolution, and thereafter, be amended from time to time by resolution.
(ii) City staff has prepared a comprehensive schedule of the rates, fees and charges
that reflect the reasonable and prudent costs relating to the acquisition and
distribution of electric power to retail customers and are recommending that the
City Council adopt the recommended fees. These rates do not present the City an
opportunity to achieve profits or to impose charges in excess of the costs
reasonably related to the development, maintenance and expansion of a municipal
• electric distribution system. The City Council has directed City staff to regularly
review the operations of the City's electric utility to ensure that the rates are
sufficient to cover all prudent business costs, reserves and capital equipment
acquisition but not exceeding the amount necessary for the same. The rates, fees
and charges reflect the reasonable costs to the City system only and do not reflect
any excess rates, fees, or charges that are in excess of the reasonable costs of
providing the electrical services as set forth hereinafter.
(iii) The City Council has reviewed the adoption of this Resolution pursuant to the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended, and
has determined that the adoption of the Electric Rules and Regulations has no
foreseeable potential to a result in a significant impact upon the environment and is
exempt from CEQA review pursuant to State CEQA Guidelines Section
15061(b)(3). Further, the City Council has determined that the adoption of the fees
is exempt from substantive environmental review under Section 15273 of the State
CEQA Guidelines as no capital projects for system expansion are included in the
proposed action.
(iv) All legal prerequisites to the adoption of this Resolution have occurred.
B. RESOLUTION.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Rancho Cucamonga does
• hereby find and resolve as follows:
Resolution No. 05-093

the Demand Charge may be established at fifty percent (50%) of the Customer's
Connected Load.
4. Maximum Demand.
The Maximum Demand in any month shall be the measured maximum average
kilowatt input, indicated or recorded by instruments, during any 15-minute
metered interval in the month, but, where applicable, shall not be less than the
diversified resistance welder load computed in accordance with the section
designated Welder Service in Rule 2. Where the demand is intermittent or subject
to violent fluctuations, a 5-minute interval may be used.
E. Excess Transformer Capacity.
Excess Transformer Capacity is the amount of transformer capacity requested by a
Customer in excess of that which the Utility would normally install to serve the
Customer's Maximum Demand. Excess Transformer Capacity shall be billed at the
amount shown in the Rates section above.
F. Power Factor Adjustment.
When the Maximum Demand has exceeded 200 kW for three (3) consecutive months,
kilovar metering will be installed as soon as practical, and, thereafter, until the Maximum
Demand has been less than 150 kW for twelve (12) consecutive months, the billing will
be increased each month for power factor by the amount shown in the Rates section
above for service metered and delivered at the applicable voltage level, based on the per
kilovar of maximum reactive demand imposed on the Utility. The reactive demand will
be determined as follows:
I. For Customers with metering used for billing that measures reactive demand, the
maximum reactive demand shall be the highest measured maximum average
kilovar demand indicated or recorded by metering during any 15-minute metered
interval in the month. The kilovars shall be determined to the nearest unit. A
device will be installed on each kilovar neter to prevent reverse operation of the
Meter.
2. For Customers with metering used for billing that measures kilovar-hours instead
of reactive demand, the kilovars of reactive demand shall be calculated by
multiplying the kilowatts of measured Maximum Demand by the ratio of the
kilovar-hours to the kilowatt hours. Demands in kilowatts and kilovars shall be
determined to the nearest unit. A ratchet device will be installed on the kilovar-
hour Meter to prevent its reverse operation on leading power factors.
G. Temporary Discontinuance of Service.
Where the use of energy is seasonal or intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a
temporary discontinuance of service. Any Customer resuming service within twelve (12)

purposes.
2. Voltage.
Service will be supplied at one standard voltage.
3. Maximum Demand.
Maximum Demands shall be established for the On-Peak, Mid-Peak, and Off-
Peak periods. The Maximum Demand for each period shall be the measured
maximum average kilowatt input indicated or recorded by instruments, during any
15-minute metered interval, but, where applicable, not less than the diversified
resistance welder load computed in accordance with the section designated
Welder Service in Rule 2. Where the demand is intermittent or subject to violent
fluctuations,a 5-minute interval may be used.
4. Billing Demand.
The Billing Demand shall be the kilowatts of Maximum Demand, determined to
the nearest kW. The Demand Charge shall include the following billing
components. The Time Related Component shall be for the kilowatts of
Maximum Demand recorded during (or established for) the monthly billing period
for each of the On-Peak, Mid-Peak, and Off-Peak Time Periods. The Facilities
Related Component shall be for the greater of the kilowatts of Maximum Demand
recorded during (or established for) the monthly billing period or fifty percent
(50%) of the highest Maximum Demand established in the preceding eleven (11)
months (Ratcheted Demand). Separate Demand Charge(s) for the Ort-Peak, Mid-
Peak, and Off-Peak time periods shall be established for each monthly billing
period. The Demand Charge for each time period shall be based on the Maximum
Demand for that time period occurring during the respective monthly billing
period.

Customer, or required by the Utility, in excess of that which the Utility would normally
install to serve the Customer's Maximum Demand. Excess Transformer Capacity shall be

When the Maximum Demand has exceeded 200 kW for three (3) consecutive months,
kilovar metering will be installed as soon as practical, and, thereafter, until the Maximum
Demand has been less than 150 kW for twelve (12) consecutive months, the billing will
be increase each month for power factor by the amount shown in the Rates section above
for service metered and delivered at the applicable voltage level, based on the per kilovar
of maximum reactive demand imposed on the Utility. The reactive demand will be
determined as follows:
1. For Customers with metering used for billing that measures reactive demand.
The maximum reactive demand shall be the highest measured maximum average
kilovar demand indicated or recorded by metering during any 15-minute metered
interval in the month. The kilovars shall be determined to the nearest unit. A
device will be installed on each kilovar Meter to prevent reverse operation of the
Meter.
2. For Customers with metering used for billing that measures kilovar-hours instead
of reactive demand.
G. Temporary Discontinuance of Service.
When the use of energy is seasonal or intermittent, no adjustments will be made for a
temporary discontinuance of service. Any Customer prior to resuming service within
twelve (12) months after such service was discontinued will be required to pay all
charges which would have been billed if service had not been discontinued.
H. Customer-Owned Electrical Generating Facilities.

allow the Customer to test the auxiliary/emergency generating facilities.
I. Billing.

are calculated by applying the Delivery Service and Generation rates when applicable to
the actual billing determinants (kilowatt hours [kWh], demand [kW], etc.).
J. Power Cost Adjustment Factor(PCAF).
The rates above are subject to an adjustment as provided in Rule 12, Section E.
K. Change of Law Adjustment Factor(CLAF).
The rates above are subject to an adjustment as provided in Rule 12, Section F.
