ADOPTED BY RESOLUTION NO. 71-478
AND MOST RECENTLY AMENDED BY
RESOLUTION NO. 2006R -188
WHEREAS, the City of Anaheim (Anaheim) maintains an electric generation and
distribution system for the furnishing of electricity to residents and inhabitants of the City of

WHEREAS, the Anaheim Municipal Code authorizes the City Council to approve
reasonable Rates, Rules and Regulations governing electric services and fees and charges for

WHEREAS, on June 20, 2007 and June 27, 2007 notice of the public hearing to
implement a Developmental Schedule D -TOU (Developmental Domestic Time -Of -Use) rate of the
Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations was published in the Orange County Register and proof
thereof is on file with the Secretary of the Public Utilities Board; and
WHEREAS, on June 21, 2007 and June 28, 2007 notice of the public hearing to
implement a Developmental Schedule D -TOU (Developmental Domestic Time -Of -Use) rate of the
Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations was published in the Anaheim Bulletin and proof thereof is

WHEREAS, the Public Utilities Board held a public hearing on July 5, 2007, and
evidence was presented in support of the implementing of a Developmental Schedule D -TOU
(Developmental Domestic Time -Of -Use) rate of the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Public Utilities Board considered the proposals of the Public
Utilities Department and considered the evidence presented at the public hearing; and
WHEREAS the Public Utilities Board made the following findings with respect
to the need for an addition to the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations:
1. Section 1221 of the City Charter provides that utility rates charged to a class of
customers shall be uniform within the class and shall be based on the cost of service
revenue requirement for the class.
2. Section 1221 of the City Charter also provides that the City Council shall
periodically review rates to insure that financial goals are being accomplished.
3. Section 1221 of the City Charter provides that the City Council may establish and
revise ratepayer discount and other programs to assist residential customers in the
payment of their utility bills.
4. In setting rates, it is reasonable and appropriate to recognize the benefits that
Anaheim Public Utilities customers will realize through having rates for residential
customers remain competitive with other local providers.
5. It is reasonable and appropriate to implement a Developmental Schedule D -TOU
(Developmental Domestic Time -Of -Use) to offer another rate option to residential
customers which complies with the requirements of federal legislation to offer
variable time based rates, may result in a reduction of the customer's residential
electric bill, and encourages load shifting to time when the cost of procuring energy
is less; and
WHEREAS, the Public Utilities Board considered the requirements of the California
Environmental Quality Act and found that matters covered above come within Section 21080 (b)
(8) of the Public Resources Code of the State of California. Thus, the establishment of this rate is
statutorily exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act; and
WHEREAS, based on the findings hereinabove made, the Public Utilities Board of
the City of Anaheim recommends to the City Council that the City Council adopt the findings of the
Public Utilities Board with respect to the matters contained herein and adopt the changes to the
Electric Rates, Rules, and Regulations as shown in Attachment A; and
WHEREAS, based on the finding hereinabove made, the Public Utilities Board of
the City of Anaheim recommends to the City Council that the City Council, by Motion, certify that
the adoption of the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations is statutorily exempt under the California
Environmental Quality Act, Public Resource Code, Section 21080 (b) (8), in accordance with Title
