in order to recoup the temporary cost of transitioning the City's
cost of wholesale power supply from ShoMe Power Electric Cooperative
to the Missouri Joint Municipal Electric Utility Commission and a
phasing-in of the wholesale electric rates to be charged by the Missouri
Joint Municipal Electric Utility to the City. An amount of $0.0165
per KWH sold times the total KWHs billed to each customer on each
of the City's metered kilowatt hour rates shall be charged to each
customer.
2.
Such amount per KWH shall be added in the first (1st) month
following approval of this Subsection and shall continue on subsequent
customer invoices until customer invoices have been rendered for the
billing period of March, 2013; at which time this Subsection shall
expire and have no further effect on customer bills.

adjustment. Commencing with the first (1st) billing date for each
consumer after June thirtieth (30th) of each year, there shall be
a four percent (4%) increase to the minimum monthly charge and a four
percent (4%) increase to the difference between the energy charge
in each rate block and the base energy charge of $O.xxx as defined
in the purchased power adjustment for each rate classification.
B.
For
commercial service (demand), industrial service, and all other demand
metered rates, all charges are subject to an annual operations adjustment.
Commencing with the first (1st) billing date for each customer after
June thirtieth (30th) of each year, there shall be a four percent
(4%) increase to the demand charge, a four percent (4%) increase to
the difference, if positive, between the energy charge per KWH and
the base energy of $O.xxx per KWH as defined in the purchased power
adjustment.

$0.01724 per KWH, to be reviewed annually.
[Ord. No. 762, 10-25-2018]
A.
Applicable
Service Territory. Net metering shall be available at any point within
the distribution service territory of the City of Seymour's electric
utility where existing utility facilities would have adequate capacity
and suitable voltage for delivery of service.
B.
Availability
Of Service. Net metering service is available to any customer that
owns and operates a solar, wind, biomass or hydrogen fuel cell generation
unit with a capacity of not more than one hundred (100) kilowatts
that is located on the customer's premises, is interconnected and
operates in parallel with the utility's existing transmission and
distribution facilities and is intended primarily to offset part or
all of the customer's own electrical power requirements. Availability
is limited by a system total of one hundred (100) kw for the Seymour
electric distribution system. Once the total installed customer generation
(as defined by Section 386.887, RSMo.) on the utility's distribution
system reaches one hundred (100) kilowatts, no additional customer
generation will be allowed to connect to the system per the Net Metering
and Easy Connection Act (Section 386.890, RSMo., Supp. 2007).
C.
Definition
Of Net Metering. "Net Metering" means measuring the difference between
the electricity supplied by the utility and the electricity generated
by an eligible generation unit and fed back to the electric grid over
the applicable billing period.
D.
Monthly
Billing.
1.
The electric service charge shall be computed in accordance with
the monthly billing under the customer's effective standard rate schedule.
Under this net metering rider, only the kilowatt-hour (kwh) units
of a generation are affected.
2.
If the electricity supplied by the utility exceeds the electricity
generated by the generation unit during the applicable billing period,
the customer shall be billed for the net billable kwh's supplied by
the utility in accordance with the rates and charged under the utility's
standard rate schedule applicable to the customer.
3.
If the electricity generated by the generation unit exceeds the electricity
supplied by the utility, the customer shall be credited for the net
value of electric energy delivered to the utility during the applicable
billing period at the utility's avoided cost, with the credit appearing
on the customer's bill no later than the following billing period.
E.
Special
Conditions.
1.
The customer must have a signed interconnection and net metering
agreement for alternative energy generation unity with the utility.
2.
The customer is responsible for all costs associated with their generation
unit and is also responsible for all costs related to any modifications
to the generation unit that may be required by the utility for purposes
of safety and reliability.
3.
A generation unit shall meet all applicable safety and performance
standards established by the National Electric Safety Code, the National
Electric Code, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers
and the Underwriters Laboratory.
4.
The customer will be responsible for any cost incurred to the City
of Seymour for upgrade to the required meter and meter base.
