Honorable Mayor
and Board of Aldermen
City of Wichita Falls, Texas

Gentlemen:
We submit for your approval a proposal which includes: (1) a
voluntary reduction in electric service rates in the City of Wichita
Falls; (2) a new agreement for municipal services in the City of
Wichita Falls; and (3) a new agreement that increases the street and
alley rental payments by Texas Electric Service Company to the City
of Wichita Falls.
The principal changes being proposed in rates are a reduction in
the rate applicable to residential customers , additional promotional
features to encourage increased residential use in the winter months,
and the addition of a new rate for all-electric homes. All residen-
tial customers using more than 65 kilowatt-hours in a month will be
benefited. These changes would result in a reduction in the annual
revenues from customers on residential rates in the City of Wichita
Falls of approximately $199,000 , or in excess of 5%.
The rate adjustment made by the Company in 1963 was proportionally
larger for the below average residential user. The benefits under the
new rates are proportionally larger to the above average use residen-
tial customers, such as those with summer air conditioning in their
homes.
Other proposed changes in rates will reduce the minimum bills
under the large general service rate and bills for some public
schools.
We propose to update the adjustment clauses in all our rates by
changing the date in the tax c:_ause from January 1, 1963, to January 1,
1565, and changing the 20 cent in the fuel clause to 21 cents.
No electric service bills to any residential, commercial, or
industrial customer will be increased by the revised Schedule of Rates.
This proposed rate reduction is a continuation of the long-
established policy of Texas Electric Service Company to voluntarily
reduce electric rates from time to time as conditions permit.
Honorable Mayor and Board of =.ldermen February 8, 1965
City of Wichita Falls, Texas Page 2
We propose to increase our street and alley rental payments to
the City of Wichita Falls :Eros 2% of a portion of the Company' s
revenues from the sales of electricity to 3% of all of the Company' s
revenues from the sales of el<ctricity and, at the same time, to
make certain adjustments in the electric rates for municipal services
in the City of Wichita Falls which will bring these rates in line
with rates for similar servic :s elsewhere on the Company' s system.
These changes will result in an estimated increase in the net revenues
of the City of Wichita Falls of approximately $65,000 per year. Dur-
ing the next ten years, the estimated increase in such net revenues
of the City is expected to amount to more than $750,000.
Upon your approval of this proposal, the street and alley rental
payments will be increased effective with the quarterly payment to
be made March 15, 1965, and bills for electric service under the new
municipal agreement and under the revised Schedule of Rates filed
herewith will become effective on bills prepared from meter readings
made on and after 30 days following approval by the Board of Aldermen.
