The hybrid water system has resulted in low and stable water costs, outstanding water quality, and exceptional system resiliency and reliability • Purchasing 10 mgd of surplus water will require a 10-12% rate increase in FY2020 but it would address VA Beach's use of Norfolk's surplus water • The combined cost of the two agreements is greater than what VA Beach has paid previously. However, the total expenditure stream for the two agreements will still have low inflationary characteristics, and the requisite services provided will still be an exceptional value to VA Beach • Execution of the Water Sales Agreement and the amendment to the Water Services Contract is recommended 17 Questions? 18 Mayor Jones expressed his appreciation to Mr. Leahy for the presentation.
