All county departments/taxing districts may participate—based on the approval of the county treasurer. Pursuant to RCW 36.29.010, .... The Treasurer may in cases where there are insufficient funds .........using such funds as not necessary for immediate expenditure, contract with the county or any other taxing district................ Therefore, there is no guarantee that the county will have funds available to cover negative cash flows for county departments/taxing districts. County departments/taxing districts will need to make other financial arrangements (i.e. bank loan, internal fund loan) in advance,before issuing warrants, if the county treasurer is unable to meet their needs. The Treasurer's Office may set a limit on the amount to be loaned to each department/taxing-district based on the needs of that department/taxing district and the cash flow of the county available to do so. The Treasurer will notify the Finance Committee via email or other communication within 24 hours when the amount of any contract/promissory note/contract exceeds $1,000,000.00. The Treasurer will report to the Finance Committee at least quarterly the amount of contract/promissory note/loan-held as investments by the county. Such contract/promissory note/loan will be redeemed-by the county treasurer on behalf of the county department/taxing district on or before the last working day of the month or 31 days in which the promissory note was issued. The Treasurer has the authority to extend the redemption period, only after reviewing such circumstances as laid out in writing by the county department/district and such extension meets the investment objectives of the county investment policy. The Treasurer will notify the Finance Committee via email or other communication within 24 hours if the Treasurer has extended the redemption period for more than 30 days. Approved this 21". day of October 2024.

For approval of the permit required by this chapter,the director or his/her designee shall be authorized to enter upon easement premises served by any building sewer or grinder pump installation or connected with any public sewer at all reasonable hours to ascertain, inspect or make necessary tests to determine whether the provisions of local,state and federal laws relative to sewerage have been complied with. In the event entry is refused,the department may apply for a search warrant to accomplish the appropriate inspection. Regardless of whether a search warrant can be obtained, if the Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 12 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS director has reason to believe that a violation of applicable provisions of local,state or federal laws relative to sewerage may exist,the department shall have the right to terminate the connection of the property to the public sewer facilities. 2. If such sewer,or its attachments,are in conflict with the provisions of any law or resolution in regard thereto,the property owner or his/her agent shall be notified to cause such sewer or its attachments to be so altered, repaired or reconstructed at the owner's expense,so as to make them conform to the requirements of the laws and resolutions within a reasonable time limit established by the director from the time of receipt of such notice. 3. Every employee of the department being authorized to enter upon private property to inspect or have charge or maintaining the public sewer facilities of the department shall be furnished with means of identification and shall carry such identification at all times when engaged upon the duties of his/her position and produce and exhibit the same upon request. (Res. No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012) 13.04.050 Permits. A. Permits Required. No unauthorized person shall uncover, make any connection with or opening into, use, alter or disturb any public sewer facilities or appurtenance thereof or construct any sewer disposal system without first obtaining a written permit from the department or other responsible agency.This article covers both permits for gravity sewer connections and grinder pump installation for the service area. B. Building Sewer Permits.There shall be two classes of building sewer permits: (a)for single-family residential service;and (b)for multifamily or nonresidential service. In either case,the property owner or his/her agent shall make application on a form furnished by the county.A building sewer permit shall be required of any owner of the lots, parcel of real estate or structure(s)either required or electing to make a connection to a public sewer or make a modification, repair,disconnection,inspection or addition to an existing building sewer.The appropriate permit fees shall be paid to the county at the time the application is filed. Upon acquisition of the building sewer permit and payment of the connection fee,the owner shall receive a "blue card" authorizing construction and connection. C. Building Sewer Permit—Term.A building sewer permit is valid for twelve months from the date of issuance. The building sewer permit may be extended an additional twelve months at the discretion of the director. If after twenty-four months,the building sewer permit expires but the owner still wishes to connect owner's property to a sewer,the owner must obtain a new permit and pay the county another full permit fee unless circumstances, in the judgment of the director,warrant an exception. If a building sewer permit is cancelled by the owner,the permit fee shall not be refunded but forfeited. In addition,the owner shall pay the difference between the originally paid CFC and the CFC in effect at the time the new building sewer permit fee is obtained. D. Building Sewer Permit Requirements.A building sewer permit shall be obtained in the following manner: 1. Permits shall be issued only upon proper application to the Mason County Department of Utilities and Waste Management. 2. A permit which authorizes work in a public right-of-way or easement dedicated to Mason County or the connection with or opening into any public sewer other than through the normal opening of a wye,tee or side sewer stub shall be issued to a licensed contractor. 3. A permit which authorizes building sewer work may be issued to the owner of the property. For building sewer as defined in Section 13.0431-.020 of this code,the owner may perform only that portion of the connection located on private property and not in public right-of-way or easement dedicated to the county. 4. Building sewer permits shall not be transferable. No person shall lay any pipe pursuant to any other person's or contractor's permit.

A permit shall be issued prior to commencement of construction and only after all applicable charges and fees have been paid to the department by the owner or developer. 6. No permit allowing connection to the public sewer shall be issued before the main sewer is accepted by the director, and the property owner so notified.An interim approval allowing building sewer construction without connection to a nonoperational sewer may be issued at the discretion of the director. 7. The permit card must be posted on the job prior to commencing the work and must be readily accessible to the director. (Res. No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012) 13.04.060 Grinder pumps in designated low-pressure sewer areas. A. Low-Pressure Sewer Installations in Designated Areas.The sewer system has been designed for properties in designated areas to be served by low-pressure sewers for the convenience and economy of the overall system. Because of this design, properties in these areas are required to have a grinder pump in order to pump sewage from the property to the sewer mains.The department will notify property owners if their properties are in a designated low-pressure sewer area and are required to have a grinder pump for the convenience and economy of the overall system. B. Responsibility for Grinder Pumps.The provisions in this section shall apply only to properties in designated low-pressure sewer areas for which grinder pumps are required for the convenience and economy of the overall system.A summary of this division of responsibilities is shown in Figure A(below). 1. For Single-Family Residential Structures:The property owner shall be responsible for acquiring and installing an approved grinder pump with the appropriate electrical circuit,subject to the inspection and approval of the county.The county will maintain the pump as part of the overall system. Appropriate grinder pumps may be purchased from the county by the property owner. 2. For Multifamily or Commercial Structures,The property owner shall be responsible for providing, installing, and maintaining an approved grinder pump with the appropriate electrical circuit,sublect to the inspection and approval of the county. 3. In All Cases: Property owners shall be responsible for the cost of electricity serving the grinder pump. Property owners shall also provide the county with right-of-entry documents for any properties served with a grinder pump to allow the county to properly inspect and (when applicable) maintain the pump.

(Res. No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012) 13.04.070 Fees and Costs A. Permit Fees and Costs. 1. At the time of application for a building sewer permit,or if an applicant seeks to connect to the sewer system,the applicant shall apply for a building sewer permit(blue card)and shall pay to the county a permit fee together with connection charges and/or other applicable charges(including grinder pump charges), if any, required by this chapter. If the permit is not issued,the permit fee,grinder pump charge and connection charges shall be refunded. a. For single-family residential structures,the building sewer permit fee shall be one hundred fifty dollars. b. For multifamily or commercial structures,the building sewer permit fee shall be seventy-five dollars per hour of staff time plus the out-of-pocket costs incurred by the department in reviewing, inspecting,and meeting about the permit application.The minimum fee is one hundred fifty dollars,which must be paid at the time of application.After the actual amount of the fee is determined,the additional charge must be paid before the permit is issued. 2. A sewer design review fee shall be charged for design review services provided by department staff when an application is submitted for a large subdivision,short subdivision,or boundary line adjustment.The sewer design review fee shall be seventy-five dollars per hour of staff time plus the out-of-pocket costs incurred by the department in reviewing, inspecting,and meeting about the application.The minimum fee is one hundred fifty dollars,which must be paid at the time of application.After the actual amount of the fee is determined,the additional charge must be paid before the subdivision or boundary line adjustment is approved. 3. Except as provided in Section 13.04.051,grinder pumps in designated low-pressure sewer areas,all costs and expenses incidental to the installation and connection to the sanitary sewer system whether it be gravity or grinder pump connection,shall be borne by the property owner, including costs associated with decommissioning the existing septic tank or other on-site wastewater treatment system. 4. If sewer service by grinder pump is not required by the county, but desirable for the convenience and economy of the property owner,and if it is allowed by the director,the property owner shall either purchase a grinder pump approved by the county or purchase the pump directly from the county. If the pump is purchased from the county,the cost to the owner shall be the actual costs paid by the county for Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 15 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS the grinder pump, including tax.The owner shall be responsible for the cost of installing and maintaining the pump and for the cost of electrical power to serve the pump. Owners shall be required to provide right-of-entry documents for any properties served with a grinder pump. 5. If department personnel or resources are required to repair or assist in the repair of a grinder pump whose maintenance is not the responsibility of the county,the department shall charge the property owner seventy-five dollars per hour of staff time plus out-of-pocket costs. If a pump whose maintenance is the responsibility of the county is damaged due to the actions or negligence of the property owner,the property owner shall reimburse the department for all repair or replacement costs, including seventy-five dollars per hour for applicable employee time. 6. A reinspection fee of seventy-five dollars per additional visit shall be charged when more than one inspection is required for the county to determine if the property is properly connected to the public sewer system,and if the septic system or other on-site wastewater treatment facilities have been Properly disconnected. B. Capital Facilities Charge(CFC)—Intent.Consistent with RCW 36.94.140,and subject to the exceptions stated in this section,the intent of the capital facilities charge is to recover the full cost of capacity,which is defined as the projected total capital cost of the sewer system at full build-out, net of grants and property owner capital contributions(such as utility local improvement district assessments or the value of sewer infrastructure paid for by developers and donated to the system), divided by the number of ERUs projected to be served by the system at full build-out.The calculation of the CFC shall only include capital costs to develop or expand the system, not to renovate or repair an existing system.The estimated full cost of capacity is expected to be updated periodically in order to reflect updated cost and ERU growth protections and to incorporate accrued interest for up to ten years for infrastructure already built. C. Capital Facilities Charge Required.A capital facilities charge shall be paid to the county before any structure is connected to public sewer facilities. No building sewer permit shall be issued prior to the application for a building permit. No building permit shall be issued until all capital facilities charges have been paid in full, except as otherwise provided in this chapter.The capital facilities charge per ERU for a given parcel shall be the amounts set forth in Sections 13.04.060G.and 13.04.060H. D. Residential ERUs. 1. The amount of annual water consumption defined as an ERU shall be referred to as the standard water consumption.The standard water consumption shall be two hundred gallons per day, equivalent to seven thousand five hundred sixty-four cubic feet of water per year. 2. Subject to the exceptions stated in this section,each freestanding single-family residential structure shall be charged one ERU for sewer service. 3. Subject to the exceptions stated in this section, if more than one freestanding single-family residential structure is located on one tax parcel,each structure shall count as one ERU. 4. Multifamily uses are defined as two or more dwelling units in one structure.The number of ERUs for a multifamily structure shall be defined as the number of dwelling units multiplied by-1.0. 5. Where a legally permitted home occupation takes place within a residence,the structure shall be treated as a residential use for the purposes of determining ERUs,and not as a commercial use. 6. Where an ancillary residential structure depends on a primary residence for access to bathroom and/or kitchen plumbing fixtures,the director or his designee shall consider the ancillary structure to be part of the primary residence for the purpose of determining ERUs. 7. Where a single-family structure of four hundred square feet or less(exterior dimensions) is located on a parcel with another residential or commercial structure,the single-family structure of four hundred square feet or less shall be counted as a multifamily dwelling unit.Where common ownership and a shared water meter exist,the director or his designee may consider adjacent parcels to be functionally equivalent to one parcel for the purpose of determining the applicability of this provision. 8. A manufactured housing community,as defined in RCW 59.20.030, may elect to have its residential structures treated as a group,even if the manufactured homes are located on separate parcels and/or Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 16 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS have separate water meters. If the manufactured housing community elects to be treated as a group, upon written notice of such election, it shall be billed as a single customer,and its residential structures shall be counted as multifamily dwelling units. If the manufactured housing community as a whole becomes delinquent,as defined by Section 13.31.090C.,the director may revoke the group status, and upon written notice of such determination,each manufactured home will be counted and billed as a single-family residential structure going forward. E. Commercial ERUs. 1. The minimum number of ERUs for commercial accounts shall be one ERU for each sewered structure. Where a given commercial structure has multiple leasable tenant spaces with separate plumbing fixtures,the minimum number of ERUs shall be one ERU for each leasable tenant space. 2. For a multiple-tenant commercial structure in which all leasable tenant spaces share common plumbing fixtures(such as an office building with shared restrooms and shared kitchen facilities),the minimum number of ERUs is defined as 0.5 multiplied by the number of leasable tenant spaces. For a multiple-tenant commercial structure in which some leasable tenant spaces have separate plumbing fixtures and others rely entirely on shared plumbing fixtures,the minimum number of ERUs is defined as the number of leasable tenant spaces with any separate plumbing fixtures, plus 0.5 multiplied by the number of leasable tenant spaces relying entirely on shared plumbing fixtures. 3. Where water consumption data can be obtained,the number of ERUs for an account shall be defined as the greater of: (a)the minimum ERUs for that account,or(b)the account's total water consumption for the previous year divided by the standard water consumption for single-family residential accounts, rounded off to the nearest one-tenth of an ERU. 4. If actual monthly water consumption for a commercial account is not available,the number of ERUs for a commercial account shall be based on the type and scale of business(es)occupying the parcel,applying the categories shown in Figure B(below).The estimates in Figure B(below) may be updated as necessary by the director to reflect actual experience with similar types of businesses in Belfair or updated guidelines from state or federal governments, professional associations,or other utilities about standard water consumption by property use. If Figure B is updated,the updated version will be published on the county Web site. 5. When the categories in Figure B(below)are used to estimate the commercial ERUs for a given commercial or mixed-use parcel with more than one sewered structure or more than one leasable tenant space,the number of ERUs shall be the sum of the estimated ERUs for each leasable tenant space within each sewered structure. Commercial leasable tenant spaces relying entirely on shared plumbing fixtures shall be calculated as 0.5 times the number of ERUs shown in Figure B(below),with the total for the entire account rounded off to the nearest one-tenth of an ERU. 6. For mixed-use parcels with both commercial and residential uses,where water consumption data is available,the number of commercial ERUs shall be the greater of: (a)the minimum number of commercial ERUs;or(b)the number of ERUs determined from the total water consumption for the entire parcel minus the number of residential ERUs. 7. If a commercial account relies on a well for drinking water in place of being connected to a water system, the categories in Figure B(below)shall be used to estimate its ERUs. If a commercial account relies partly on a well and partly on the water system, metered water consumption shall be the basis of the ERU calculation for those structures connected to the water system,and there shall be additional ERUs calculated for structures receiving drinking water from a well, using Figure B(below). If a well is used only for irrigation water, no ERUs will be assigned to water from that well. 8. Tentative ERUs. If water conservation improvements have been made to an existing structure that are expected to reduce its impact on the sewer system, but there has not been enough time to demonstrate the amount of the reduction,the director may assign a tentative ERU figure based on estimated water use, provided that the property owner agrees to provide actual water consumption data for a long enough period to establish a final ERU figure.Tentative ERUs may also be used for new development in Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 17 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS cases where, in the director's judgment,there is substantial uncertainty about the impact that a given proposed development will have on the sewer system.The tentative ERU assignment shall be replaced by a final ERU assignment as soon as there is a full year of valid water consumption data with the structure at full occupancy. If the actual water consumption is greater than the level implied by the tentative ERU figure,the property shall be charged the difference in both CFC and monthly sewer charges,dating back to the month when the tentative ERU figure was first used, plus interest accrued at five percent per year. If the actual water consumption is less than the level implied by the tentative ERU figure,the property shall be refunded the difference in both CFC and monthly sewer charges,dating back to the month when the tentative ERU figure was first used, plus interest accrued at five percent per year. 9. Changes in tenancy. If a commercial leasable tenant space becomes vacant,or its occupancy changes to a new tenant,the property owner shall notify the department of the change within thirty days of the change.This notification shall use a form to be determined by the department and shall include payment of the ten dollar fee described in Section 13.31.090D.The notification shall contain sufficient information about the new tenant for the department to determine the ERUs applicable to the account, using Figure B (below). If the change in tenancy results in a changed ERU for the account,the change in monthly sewer charges shall take effect with the next monthly bill.Vacant tenant spaces shall be counted at the minimum ERU. If a property owner fails to notify the department within thirty days of a change in tenancy that has the effect of increasing the ERUs for the account,the property owner shall be responsible for a one hundred fifty dollar penalty, plus the difference in monthly sewer charges dating to the change in tenancy, plus five percent interest per year on the outstanding difference in monthly sewer charges.

G. Capital Facilities Charges.The county shall charge a one-time CFC an amount that is reviewed and approved by the Board of County Commissioners on an annual basis. H. Monthly Sewer Charge.The county shall charge all parcels connected to the public sewer facilities a monthly sewer charge: Monthly service charge rate will be reviewed and approved by the Board of County Commissioners on an annual basis.The county shall bill the monthly sewer charge in the manner set forth in Section 13.04.090, billing. (Res. No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012;Ord. No. 119-19, 12-3-2019) (Res. No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012) 13.04.080 ERU updates, capacity rental charges, strength charges. A. Updating ERU Estimates. 1. The number of ERUs used to calculate the monthly sewer charges for a given commercial or mixed-use parcel will be updated on an annual basis and based upon the most recent data available on water consumption. 2. If updated water consumption data is not available, historical metered water consumption data shall take precedence over the estimated ERUs in Section 13.04.060F.—Figure B, as the basis of ERU calculations; provided that the property use or intensity of development has not changed. In general, absent a change in property use or intensity of development,the source of data of the commercial ERU calculation is intended to be, in priority order: (1) immediate past year's metered water consumption; (2) historical metered water consumption;and (3)Section 13.04.060F.—Figure B. 3. When property redevelopment or changes in tenant use increases the number of ERUs estimated for a given parcel,the property owner shall pay a CFC consisting of the number of incremental ERUs multiplied by the then-current CFC per ERU. B. Capacity Rental Charges. 1. Regardless of whether there has been property redevelopment or changes in tenant use, if the most recent annual water consumption information for a given commercial or mixed-use parcel is higher than the water consumption determined by the number of ERUs for which CFCs have been paid, and if the increase is at least the standard amount of water consumption currently defined as one ERU,then the county may calculate an additional monthly charge equivalent to a CFC on the incremental ERUs. This additional monthly charge shall be referred to as a "capacity rental charge." 2. Property owners may at any time elect to buy additional ERUs of capacity rights(thus foregoing the capacity rental charge) by paying a CFC at then-current rates for the incremental number of ERUs. 3. If the county adjusts the standard water consumption used to define one ERU,a "rebasing factor"will be calculated and applied to the original number of ERUs of CFCs paid in order to create an adjusted number of ERUs of CFCs paid for each property.The rebasing factor will be the old standard water consumption divided by the new standard water consumption. For the purpose of implementing the capacity rental charge,the number of ERUs for which a given property owner has purchased capacity Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 19 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS rights shall be defined as the greater of: (a)the number of ERUs of capacity rights after applying the adjustment factor,or(b)the number of ERUs of CFCs actually paid. 4. Except as provided in Section 13.03.060E.8.,tentative ERUs,once a property has been connected to the sewer, refunds of CFCs may be given only if there have been technical errors in the original ERU calculation,and not for changes in water consumption. C. Adjustments to Water Consumption Data. 1. If a property owner elects to install a deduct meter or an irrigation-only meter as approved by the director at the property owner's own expense that measures irrigation-only use,the irrigation water shall be subtracted from the annual water consumption upon which the ERUs are calculated. 2. Until January 1,2014, if a property owner requests an adjustment in the calculation of annual water consumption due to seasonal irrigation,and if the parcel does not experience a summer seasonal peak in indoor water consumption for that parcel,the county may, in its discretion,substitute the average off-peak water consumption for the measured peak-month consumption when calculating the ERUs. Unless usage patterns show otherwise,the peak season is assumed to be June—August.After January 1,2014,only deduct meters or irrigation-only meters will serve as the basis for adjusting water consumption for irrigation. 3. In relying on the immediate past year's metered water consumption as the basis of ERUs for a given parcel,the intent is to estimate the relative sewage flows from that parcel for the upcoming year.To that end,the county may extrapolate from partial year data or use historical data when it appears that the recorded water use data for the immediate past year is anomalous or incorrect.This extrapolation is intended to address situations where there might have been leaks,stolen water, meter malfunctions, or capital improvements during the year that will reduce water consumption for the upcoming year. 4. For commercial laundry facilities,the director may adjust the water consumption data used for calculating ERUs to account for the percentage of water used in the washing machines that evaporates in the dryers rather than being discharged to the sewer.This adjustment shall be based on the best available research for the washing machines in use by the facility• D. Strength Charges. 1. Based on the property use,commercial accounts or mixed-use accounts shall be classified as domestic strength or high strength, using the estimates in Figure C(below). Residential accounts are estimated to have between one hundred seventy-five and two hundred fifty parts per million (ppm)of both biological oxygen demand (BOD)and total suspended solids(TSS). For commercial accounts or mixed- use accounts, "domestic strength"shall mean a concentration of BOD and TSS that is less than or equal to five hundred ppm for both BOD and TSS. "High strength"shall mean a concentration of either BOD or TSS that is more than five hundred ppm for either BOD or TSS. 2. After the department develops standard best management practices for minimizing fats,oils,and greases(FOG)and other components of high-strength sewage,commercial parcels that deliver high- strength sewage shall be charged a "strength charge."The strength charge shall consist of twenty-five percent of the regular monthly sewer charge based on the number of ERUs of flow.The strength charge is intended to recover the additional system capacity and operating costs created by above- average concentrations of BOD and TSS. 3. Businesses that give satisfactory ongoing evidence of compliance with the best management practices specified by the utility will be exempt from the strength charge. 4. If a parcel has multiple leasable tenant spaces,and some of the tenants are high strength,the strength charge shall be prorated in proportion to the number of ERUs estimated for each leasable tenant space.The sewer bill shall identify the strength charge and high-strength ERUs separately. 5. A business customer may appeal its strength classification to the county by paying for and providing to the county sampling and lab testing to determine site-specific BOD and TSS loadings.The sampling and testing shall be controlled and executed by the county at the time determined by the county,at the customer's cost and expense. If the testing shows the sewage from the site to be below the high- Mason County,Washington,Code of Ordinances Created: 2021-12-29 14:27:41 [EST] (Supp. No.57, 11-21) Page 20 of 115 Title 13-UTILITIES Chapter 13.08 PUBLIC WORKS STANDARDS strength threshold for both BOD and TSS,then the strength charges shall be eliminated from future sewer bills, unless the department determines in the future that circumstances have changed on the property to warrant strength charges. 6. Upon receipt of a strength classification appeal,the county shall notify the property owner of the estimated cost of the appeal.The property owner appealing the strength classification shall pay the estimated appeal cost. Upon such payment,the county will conduct the testing and make a determination about the strength classification based on site-specific data. If the county determines that the property in question is a domestic strength account,then any strength charges paid prior to the date of the appeal will be refunded to the date of the appeal,and future strength charges will not be applied for a period not to exceed twelve months.

No.04-12, Exh. 1, 1-10-2012) 13.04.090 Billing. A. Definition of Accounts.Sewer accounts shall be defined primarily by the tax parcel for which sewer service is to be provided.Where a given parcel has more than one water meter,service address,tenant,or structure, the director or his designee may elect to treat the parcel as having more than one sewer account for billing purposes; however,the ultimate responsibility for paying all sewer charges still rests with the property owner.Where a given property owner owns more than one adjacent parcel,then the director or his designee may treat the commonly owned parcels as one sewer account. B. Timing of Billing. Billings shall be mailed prior to the tenth day of the month for which the monthly sewer charge applies.With new connections,the timing of the initial monthly sewer charges depends on the date of connection.

Background/Executive Summary: Cabot Dow Associates has provided recommendations as part of the 2024 Non-Represented Class/Comp Study. These include not only market adjustments,but titling,internal/external equity, compression issues, and FLSA status.

Throughout the second and third quarters of 2024, Cabot Dow Associates performed a total cost of compensation study that included an internal review of non- represented positions,recommendations for classification adjustments and clarifications based on market observations and industry practices, and market comparisons with similar positions. Sixty-five (65) positions were compared with similar positions in nine (9) selected comparable counties throughout Washington state. Upon request, positions were also reviewed for compression, internal equity, positions y-rated,titling, class specifications, and FLSA status. The study compared Mason County salaries, retirement benefits, longevity and other premiums, healthcare insurance benefits, and paid leave to create total cost of compensation models from an employer cost perspective. With a target of 5% within the market median for formal salary range midpoints, the study found that thirty (30) positions (46%) of the surveyed positions were within the desired range. Eighteen (18) positions (28%) were more than 5%above the market median of the salary range midpoint, and fourteen (14) positions (22%) of the positions were more than 5% below the market median of the salary range midpoint. From a total compensation perspective, thirty-four (34) (52%) of the positions were within 5% of the market median for net hourly pay. Twelve (12) positions (18%) were more than 5% above the market median for net hourly pay,and sixteen (16) positions(25%)were more than 5%below the market median for net hourly pay. Recommendations Based on the County's stated goals of setting non-represented pay ranges to match the market median at the salary range midpoint, position results that fell below 5% of the net hourly pay were targeted for adjustments. By using the net hourly amount as a criterion for recommending adjustments to position salary ranges, it acknowledges the effect that non-salary compensation items have on total cost of compensation. Adjusting position ranges to bring a position's net hourly amount within 5%of the market tends to bring the salary range midpoint within market as well. Twenty (20) position salary range adjustments are being initially recommended due to study results and classification review. Factors such as internal equity and compression have also been considered. Recommendations for salary range adjustments have been noted in the attached recommendations in red text. For this study, no changes to the salary range structure have been recommended. It is suggested that incumbents of positions whose salaries have changed because of the study be placed in the new salary ranges according to following method: 1. If an employee's current monthly salary rate falls below Step 1 of their new salary range, they will be placed at Step 1 effective January 1, 2025. These employees will remain eligible for regularly scheduled step increases on their anniversary date. 2. If an employee's current hourly rate falls within their new range, they will be placed on the closest step that is at or above the employee's current hourly rate effective January 1, 2025. These employees will remain eligible for regularly scheduled step increases on their anniversary date. Non-eenchmarked Positions Out of the approximately sixty-five(65)classifications surveyed,three(3) positions were not analyzed due to an insufficient number of matching positions within the selected market. Recommendations for slotting in these positions in the current study, and in future studies, have been noted in Appendix A. Generally, the market shows that differences between various levels of management tend to follow certain patterns,for example: • Department Director: 100% • Deputy Department Director: 80%-85% • Mid-Level Managers: 65%-75% • Supervisors: 45%-60% • Lead/Analysts: 35%—50% • Individual contributors: 25%-40% Where relevant,these guidelines,as well as job factor analysis, have been used to suggest slotting position and balancing market results with internal equity and compression considerations. FLSA Exemption Status The study included a review of current FLSA exemption status for non-represented positions. The 2025 projected minimum annual salary threshold for state overtime exemption status is $77,969.1 This could impact current overtime-exempt positions up to Range 34. To comply with State overtime exemption laws,the following currently exempt positions may need to be made overtime eligible: Range Position 28 Therapeutic Courts Program Manager(proposed) Office Manager 29 Elections Administrator Public Works Office Administrator Human Resources Analyst Finance Manager I (proposed) 30 Engineering& Construction Assistant Manager 32 Equipment Maintenance Supervisor(proposed) Road Operations& Maintenance Supervisor (proposed) 33 Juvenile Detention Manager Chief Deputy Assessor Chief Deputy Clerk(proposed) i See https://Ini.wa.gov/forms-publications/F700-207-OOO.pdf. Range Position Chief Deputy Treasurer Environmental Health Supervisor Finance Manager II (proposed) Risk Manager(proposed) 34 Prosecuting Attorney Administrative Manager Solid Waste Manager(proposed) Validation While we have commented on common market practices related to specific positions and internal parity, CDA recognizes that decisions regarding compensation policy and philosophy, salary ranges, placements of positions within the salary range, and comparison to the market percentile ultimately rest with the County. This summary report on the total compensation analysis of Mason County's non-represented positions was prepared by Alexandra Sheeks, Principal Associate at Cabot Dow Associates, Inc. This Report is intended to be fully responsive to the County's contract for professional services and reflects the consultant's independent professional methodology, tables,judgments and findings.

Background/Executive Summary: The Mason Lake LMD#2 was formed over 20 years ago in response to the arrival and spread of Eurasian Milfoil in Mason Lake.When first discovered, a committee of concerned citizens was formed to develop a strategy for dealing with this invasive aquatic plant. They hired a consultant to help develop an Integrated Aquatic Vegetation Management Plan(lAVMP). There are a number of changes that have happened over the past 20 years that the existing plan does not take into account,including the increased number of year-round residents on the lake,the conversion of small cabins to large homes as well as potential impacts of climate change.As a result,the current Mason Lake LMD is recommending that the 20+year-old plan be updated. The application period for Ecology's Aquatic Invasive Plan Funding(FY 2025-26)is from October 24t" through December 17tt'. Budget Impact(amount, funding source,budget amendment): Budget limit for planning grants is$30,000. The funds would be received by the County and transferred to the LMD's BARS line. Funds would be used to hire a qualified contractor to update the existing plan. Public Outreach (news release, community meeting, etc.): N/A N/A Requested Action: Support moving forward with the Mason Lake LMD recommendation to update their plan through Ecology's Aquatic Invasive Plants Management Grants Program funding opportunity.
