A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
ANAHEIM MODIFYING THE RATES, RULES AND
REGULATIONS, WHICH DO NOT MATERIALLY INCREASE
RATE -RELATED REVENUES, FOR THE SALE AND
DISTRIBUTION OF ELECTRICITY AS ADOPTED BY
RESOLUTION NO. 71R-478 AND MOST RECENTLY
AMENDED BY RESOLUTION NO. 2022-018 AND
DETERMINING THAT SAID ACTIONS ARE EXEMPT FROM
THE CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
(CEQA) PURSUANT TO PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE
SECTION 21080(B)(8) AND SECTIONS 15061(B)(3) AND
15273(A) OF TITLE 14 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF
REGULATIONS.
WHEREAS, the City of Anaheim ("Anaheim") maintains an electric generation
and distribution system for the furnishing of electricity to residents and businesses of Anaheim
and has adopted the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations for the sale and distribution of
electricity; and
WHEREAS, the Anaheim Municipal Code authorizes the City Council of Anaheim
("Anaheim City Council") to approve reasonable Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations for electric
services, which are provided by the Anaheim Public Utilities Department ("APU"); and
WHEREAS, APU is a publicly owned utility, but nonetheless strives to operate like
a business and continuously seeks opportunities to minimize administrative and fiscal burdens
while remaining in a position to maintain service reliability and high industry standards; and
WHEREAS, in support of the foregoing, APU staff reviewed and recommends (1)
the adoption of modifications to Schedule TOU of the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations, as
set forth in Attachment A; (2) the closure of Developmental Schedule D-EV of the Electric Rates,
Rules and Regulations to new customers, as set forth in Attachment A; and (3) modifications to
Rule No. 23 of the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations, as set forth in Attachment B; and
WHEREAS, on February 2, 2023, and February 9, 2023, notice of the public
hearing regarding modifications to the electric rate schedules and rules of the Electric Rates, Rules
and Regulations was published in the Anaheim Bulletin and proof thereof is on file with the
Secretary of the Public Utilities Board; and
WHEREAS, on February 6, 2023, and February 13, 2023, notice of the public
hearing regarding modifications to the electric rate schedules 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, the Public Utilities Board held a public hearing for the electric rate
schedule and rule modifications on February 22, 2023, and evidence was presented in support of
the modifications to the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Public Utilities Board considered the proposals of APU 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 the proposed rate modifications to the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations:
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 requires that utility rates shall be sufficient in order
to allow the utility to pay for operations and maintenance of the system; for
payment of principal and interest on debt; for creation and maintenance of financial
reserves adequate to assure debt service on bonds outstanding; for capital
construction of new facilities and improvements of existing facilities, or
maintenance of a reserve fund for that purpose; and for payments to the general
fund of the City in the amounts set forth in the City Charter.
Section 1221 of the City Charter also provides that the Anaheim City Council shall
periodically review rates to insure that financial goals are being accomplished.
4. Section 1221 of the City Charter provides that the Anaheim City Council may
establish and revise ratepayer discounts and other programs to assist residential
customers in the payment of their utility bills.
In setting rates, it is reasonable and appropriate to recognize the benefits that APU
customers will realize through having rates for domestic and non -domestic
customers remain competitive with other local providers.
6. It is reasonable and appropriate to (1) modify Schedule TOU to offer more
flexibility to high demand customers, update mid -peak and off-peak time periods,
and eliminate outdated language; and (2) close Developmental Schedule D-EV to
new customers.
WHEREAS, it is reasonable and appropriate to modify Rule No. 23 as set forth in
Attachment B to update customer service fees and increase flexibility to issue courtesy credits;
and
WHEREAS, the Public Utilities Board considered the requirements of the
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and found that the proposed modifications to the
electric rate schedules and rules, as set forth in Attachment A and Attachment B, come within
Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(8) and Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations,
2
sections 15061(b)(3) and 15273(a). Thus, the modifications are exempt from CEQA; and
WHEREAS, based on the findings hereinabove made and the public hearing record,
the Public Utilities Board recommended that the Anaheim City Council determine that the
modifications to the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations are exempt under CEQA, Public
Resources Code section 21080(b)(8) and Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, sections
15061(b)(3) and 15273(a); and
WHEREAS, based on the findings hereinabove made, the Public Utilities Board
recommended that the Anaheim City Council adopt the findings of the Public Utilities Board with
respect to the matters contained herein and adopt the modifications to the Electric Rates, Rules
and Regulations as set forth in Attachment A and Attachment B, which are on file with the Office
of the City Clerk; and
WHEREAS, the Anaheim City Council has considered the evidence and concurs
with the findings of the Public Utilities Board as set forth hereinabove.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the Anaheim City Council as follows:
The findings set forth herein are hereby adopted by the Anaheim City
Council.
2. The Anaheim City Council hereby determines that, in accordance with
CEQA and the State CEQA Guidelines, the modifications to the electric rate schedules and rules
of the Electric Rates, Rules and Regulations, as set forth in Attachment A and Attachment B, are
exempt from CEQA pursuant to Public Resources Code section 21080(b)(8) and sections
15061(b)(3) and 15273(a) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, because it can be seen
with certainty that there is no possibility that the proposed modifications will have a significant
effect on the environment as the modifications primarily recover costs and are administrative in
nature.
3. The Anaheim City Council hereby adopts the modifications to the Electric
Rates, Rules and Regulations, as set forth in Attachment A and Attachment B. These modifications
shall be effective April 3, 2023.
4. The Anaheim Public Utilities General Manager is hereby authorized and
directed to prepare, promulgate, publish, and implement changes to the Electric Rates, Rules and
Regulations as set forth herein.

and totalized demand of 4 MW or greater for any three (3) consecutive Months, the Meters may be totalized for
billing purposes at the convenience of the Utility. Totalized billing shall include a single Customer Charge for all
Meters, totalized demand, which is the concurrent demand of all Meters, and totalized energy, which is the sum
of all energy measured for all Meters.
I. Applicable to this Rate Schedule only, if after twelve (12) months of service the Customer would have preferred
service under Schedule GS-2, General Service, appropriate billing adjustments for the twelve (12) Month period
will be made and the Customer will be returned to Schedule GS-2, General Service.
