A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CALIFORNIA, AMENDING ELECTRIC
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.
(i) 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.

components. The Time Related Component shall be for the kilowatts of
Maximum Demand recorded during (or established for) the monthly billing
period. The Facilities Related Component shall be for the kilowatts of Maximum
Demand recorded during (or established for) the monthly billing period.
However, when the Utility determines the Customer's Meter will record little or
no energy use for extended periods of time or when the Customer's Meter has not
recorded a Maximum Demand in the preceding eleven (11) months, the Facilities
Related Component of the Demand Charge may be established at fifty percent
(50%)of the Customer's Connected Load.
5. 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. 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:
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, 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.
F. 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)
