The <br />assumption used that the gross number of water accounts to make this estimate. The resulting per- <br />account cost for the eleven-year period in the table is approximately $36.00 per account per <br />month, up from about $20.00 per account. Allocation of this cost to a rate structure is beyond <br />the scope of this report and must be accomplished by the Town Board, utility staff and the <br />consultant. This is because allocation of some of the costs to Town accounts for publicly used <br />water may need to be considered. Water source, water allocation and allocation of cost of <br />production are a matter of policy and can change frequently. However, assuming the use of the <br />Water Fund annual cost in the year 2000 of $274,000, an annual consumption of 230 <br />gallon/cap/day, and a population of 1618 (Chapter 2): break-even cost is $274,000 / (230 x 1618 <br />x 365/1000 less ten percent losses) or about $2.30/1000 gallons on an estimated billable <br />consumption of 120 million gallons. <br /> <br />44 <br />
