Mayor Wright, to add the resolution that would disapprove the Central Arkansas Water
rate increase to the Agenda as Item M-2.

with the proposed rate increase. City Attorney Carpenter stated that if the Board passed
the resolution, it would be up to the City of North Little Rock to determine if the rates
were increased. City Attorney Carpenter explained that according to the current contract
drafted between Central Arkansas Water (CAW) and the City of Little Rock and North
Little Rock, CAW would give at least a three (3)-month notice of its intention to raise
rates. If the two (2) municipalities did not both take action against the rate increase, then

M-2 RESOLUTION: To disapprove Central Arkansas Water Resolution No. 2012-07 to
increase the Water Rate Schedule for the years 2013, 2014 and 2015; and for other
purposes.
Director Hines stated that Central Arkansas Water (CAW) was formed to benefit the
rate payers in Little Rock and North Little Rock and since that time, Little Rock rates
have been equalized, which meant they have increased. According to Director Hines,
the CAW Board had chosen to utilize a different rate structure for retail located outside
of the City that differed from what CAW Staff stated could be utilized. Director Hines
stated that he did not think it would be fair to wait three (3) years before addressing the
disparity, as Little Rock was subsidizing the growth of communities outside of the City.
Director Hines stated that he felt it was important to send a message to the constituents
and rate payers within the City of Little Rock that the Board did not support the
subsidization. Director Richardson stated that he did not feel that there had been
enough discussion regarding the issue and that he could not support the proposed
resolution. Director Fortson stated that the Board might need to meet with CAW
Commissioners regarding the development of a policy for pricing water for the outside
areas in some way to recover not only the cost of delivering water, but the original
capital cost that was put into developing Lake Maumelle, Lake Winona and the entire
treatment plant facility.
Director Adcock asked if CAW would be willing to amend the resolution and remove the
increase for 2014 and 2015 until the issue regarding outside retail could be addressed.
CAW Executive Director Graham Rich stated that he could take the request back to the
CAW Board, which would meet the following week. Mr. Rich stated that long-term, the
5
Little Rock Board of Directors Meeting
February 5, 2013
6:00 PM
answers to the high-level policy decisions would be best answered by having the
governing bodies from both municipalities meet with the CAW Board to discuss an
overall plan for the future. Mr. Rich stated that the way that CAW had always priced the
water was not necessarily the way it needed to be priced going into the future. Mr. Rich
stated that both Boards could be provided with information regarding the pros and cons
of pricing strategies and then collectively, the three (3) groups could conclude whether
the current strategy should stay the same or be modified.
Director Hurst asked if Mr. Rich felt that the increase was necessary. Mr. Rich stated
that he did feel that the increase was necessary. Mr. Rich stated that the process was
started a well over a year ago and that at that time, the idea of a 5% - 6% increase was
studied; however, they knew that there were some variables that needed to be studied
that could possibly reduce the amount of increase. Fortunately there were several
favorable things that occurred, such as construction costs not being so high and the
rate in which the bonds were sold was extremely low, etc., that allowed CAW to reduce
the percentage. Director Kumpuris stated that the thought the CAW Board had
researched all the variables of the proposed rate increase and could not support the
proposed resolution.
Director Cazort stated that he agreed that a meeting needed to held between the two
(2) municipalities and the CAW Board to discuss a way to equalize and better benefit
the citizens of Little Rock and North Little Rock and look at higher rates to the outside
areas and the potential of lower rates to the inside area for the second and third year of
the increase.
Director Hines stated that as a result of the dialogue of the evening, he would be willing
make a motion to withdraw his resolution if CAW would diligently work to convene a
meeting with the two (2) municipalities to address the issue with the outside wholesale
and retail customers. City Attorney Carpenter stated that a motion was not needed due
to the fact that the author (Director Hines) of the resolution removed it on his own.
