$1,037.74 are accounts sent to a collection agency for further collection efforts, and $354.20 are <br /> written off with no further collection efforts. Last year's first quarter collection agency amounts <br /> were $3,354.76, and the amount for write-offs was $1,311.91. <br /> A net of$6,455.59 was sent to Revenue Recapture(RR). When comparing 2014 to 2013 you <br /> will note that we had collected $11,609.50 more than we submitted, resulting in the credit <br /> balance, which was likely a nonrecurring phenomenon. This year's number reflects a number of <br /> submissions greater than the collections and is more the norm. We have now filed with the state <br /> a net total of$57,555.08 that will remain in the system until it is collected, or we remove it. We <br /> will continue to evaluate the risk of permanent default on the accounts that have the longest <br /> duration on the RR system and determine any amounts necessary for removal. <br /> I have also presented the color-coded recap comparisons with last year, identifying the various <br /> categories and the running totals. When comparing the far right columns for 2014 and 2013, we <br /> had a negative delinquent items total in 2013 because we had collected more through RR than we <br /> had submitted, as discussed above. <br /> Our budgeted amount for collections and write-offs are $105,000 or.30%Uncollectible <br /> Accounts per Revenue Dollar. Our write-offs for the year are well below this number, at a total <br /> of$7,847.53 or .026%. According to APPA's most recent published standard ratios (2012), the <br /> industry standard is between .10%and .41%. <br /> Per State Statute 13.685 for Utility Billing Data, the attached report is not public information and <br /> has been excluded from the public copy and final copy storage of commission meeting <br /> information, and the names have also been omitted in the packet copy. <br /> ACTION REQUESTED: <br /> Staff recommends that the Elk River Municipal Utilities Commission accept this delinquent <br /> amounts listing for the first quarter of 2014. <br /> 1EE 0l <br /> Li Iou O 1 <br /> NATURE <br /> Reliable Public P O W E R E D T o SERVE <br /> Power Provider <br /> 125 <br />
