RESOLUTION OF THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF PALO ALTO
AMENDING UTILITY RATE SCHEDULES G-1 AND G-50 AS A
RESULT OF TRACKING PG&E GAS RATE CHANGES
WHEREAS, the City Council has previously adopted Resolution No.
5863, which authorizes the City Manager to implement nondiscretionary
adjustments to Palo Alto gas rates to reflect wholesale gas rate in-
creases and to track Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) retail rate
schedules G-1, G-2, and G-50; and
WHEREAS, effective May 22, 1981, and June 21, 1981, revenue in-
creases were granted PG&E resulting in rate increases to its retail
and wholesale rate schedules; and
WHEREAS, the City Manager automatically adjusted revenues to
match and offset these rate changes and in accordance with Resolution
No. 5863 has notified this Council of his ministerial action;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Council of the City of Palo Alto does
RESOLVE as follows:
SECTION 1. This Council finds that the action taken by the City
Manager is in accordance with the provisions of Resolution No. 5863:
that the Palo Alto Gas Rate Schedules G-1 and G-50 shall substan-
tially conform with those rates contained on PG&E General Service
Rate Schedules G-1, G-2, and G-50; that the effective date is identi-
cal to that date of the price increase; and that in all respects such
nondiscretionary adjustments are approved.
SECTION 2. This Council finds that the revenue derived from the
authorized adJustments of said gas rates by the City Manager shall be
used only for the purposes set forth in the Palo Alto City Charter,

ments of CEQA.
