not charged, and do not exceed the reasonable costs to the City of providing the service or

SECTION 19. The adoption of Section 1 of this resolution amending Utility Rate Schedule E15

After reviewing the staff report and all attachments presented to Council, the Council incorporates these
documents herein and finds that sufficient evidence has been presented setting forth with specificity the
basis for this claim of CEQA exemption. The adoption of the remainder of this resolution amending Utility
