Concurrent Resolution of the Wilmington City Council and the Board of
Commissioners of New Hanover County Creating the Cape Fear Public Utility
Authority
LEGISLATIVE INTENT/PURPOSE:
N.C.G.S. Chapter 162A, Article 1 known as the North Carolina Water and Sewer Authorities
Act, as amended (the "Act") authorizes political subdivisions, including cities and counties, to
create a water and sewer authority to operate their water system and/or sewer system.
On September 20,2005 the Wilmington City Council and on September 19, 2005 the New
Hanover County Board of Commissioners adopted a concurrent resolution setting forth their
intent to form an authority to consolidate their water and sewer utilities. The governing bodies
directed City and County staff to research and develop a proposed implementation plan to
include, legal, financial, engineering and administrative issues relating to the consolidation of
water and sewer utilities and to present the final plan to them and to hold a public hearing.
The City and County engaged Municipal & Financial Services Group (MFSG) as the Project
Manager to plan for the consolidation and formed the joint Water Sewer Advisory Committee to
guide the consolidation and to make recommendations to the City and County governing bodies
regarding creation of a consolidated water and sewer authority for the City and County water and
sewer systems, excluding stormwater.
MFSG developed a consolidation plan and implementation schedule that identifies
responsibilities, organization structure, timeline and preliminary utility rates and fees.
The Water Sewer Advisory Committee has made its recommendations to the City Council and
Board of Commissioners, including a recommendation to create an Authority pursuant to the Act.
In accordance with the requirements of the Act, pursuant to notice a public hearing was held
before the Wilmington City Council and New Hanover County Board of Commissioners, and
they have determined that it is in the best interest of the City and County to create the Cape Fear
Public Utility Authority pursuant to the provisions of the Act and desire to do so by the adoption
of concurrent resolutions.
The City of Wilmington and New Hanover County desire to create the Cape Fear Public Utility
Authority to operate their water and sewer systems, excluding stormwater.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE WILMINGTON CITY COUNCIL AND THE
,\-1-
BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS OF NEW HANOVER COUNTY THAT:

Authority pursuant to the North Carolina Water and Sewer Authorities Act (Chapter 162A, Article
