Explanation

1. An Ordinance amending Chapter 31, “TAXATION,” of the Moline Code of Ordinances, by

adding new Article XI, “MUNICIPAL GAS USE TAX”. (Keith Verbeke, Finance Manager)

Explanation: The City contracted with Azavar Audit Solutions in May 2014 to conduct a

comprehensive municipal audit. As a result of this audit, Azavar discovered a loophole whereby the City

is losing municipal revenue each year. In order to capture the lost gas tax revenue, Staff is proposing to

adopt a gas use tax on the use of gas from alternatives gas supplier’s customers who purchase therms

transported from out-of-state. The municipal gas use tax will not apply to any business certified by the

Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity under Illinois Statute 35 ILCS § 120/1f.

Additional documentation attached.

Staff Recommendation: Approval

Fiscal Impact: Increase revenue to general and capital improvement funds.

Public Notice/Recording: N/A

Goals Impacted: Financially Strong City

2. A Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to execute an Intergovernmental

Agreement between the City of Moline, Illinois, the City of Rock Island, Illinois, and the City

of Davenport, Iowa, and area Public Housing Agencies for the purpose of collaborating on the

development of and sharing the cost for, an Assessment of Fair Housing study. (Jeff Anderson,

City Planner)

Explanation: The cities of Moline, Rock Island, and Davenport, are entitlement cities receiving

community development formula grant funds through the Department of Housing and Urban

Development (HUD), and pursuant to HUD requirements, each community is required to complete an

Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH). As a result, the cities previously entered into an Intergovernmental

Agreement to conduct the AFH. The cost is estimated to be in the range of $80,000. The City of Moline

will be responsible for $13,350 of that cost, split between two years. Additional documentation attached.

Staff Recommendation: Approval

Fiscal Impact: -$13,350 from 230-0726-491.03-22 (CDBG Planning Activities)

Public Notice/Recording: N/A

Goals Impacted: Strong Local Economy, A Great Place to Live

3. A Resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Clerk to approve a Local Agency Agreement for

Federal Participation for Motor Fuel Tax Section 13-00258-00-LS, Sidewalk and Lighting

Improvements on Avenue of the Cities. (Scott Hinton, Public Works)

Explanation: The City of Moline will receive Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (ITEP)

grant funds through the Illinois Department of Transportation in an amount not to exceed $742,830 for

sidewalk and lighting improvements on Avenue of the Cities from 34th to 41st Streets. The ITEP funds

require a 20% local match to the grant funds. The 2017 Capital Improvement Program includes

$185,710 in Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) funds to provide the local match. Approving this Agreement

provides acknowledgement to IDOT that the City has sufficient funds available to fund the local match,

all participating construction costs above the maximum federal contribution, and all non-participating

construction costs. This item will also appear on the Council Agenda under “Non Consent Agenda” on

November 15, 2016.

Staff Recommendation: Approval.

Fiscal Impact: MFT funds are budgeted in the 2017 Capital Improvement Program for

this project.

Public Notice/Recording: N/A

Goals Impacted: Strong Local Economy

Improved City Infrastructure & Facilities

4. A Resolution authorizing the approval of a Resolution for Improvement by Municipality

Under the Illinois Highway Code for Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) Section 13-00258-00-LS, Sidewalk

and Lighting Improvements on Avenue of the Cities. (Scott Hinton, Public Works)

Explanation: The City of Moline received a $928,538 Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program

(ITEP) grant to streetscape Avenue of the Cities from 34th to 41st Streets. The maximum Federal

participation is $742,830 with a corresponding $185,708 local match. A Resolution for Improvement is

necessary to use Motor Fuel Tax funds to pay for the City’s 20% local match of the Illinois

Transportation Enhancement Program (ITEP) grant and to fund 100% of the cost above the grant

amount. The low bid for the improvements is $1,187,678.05 which is $259,138.05 above the ITEP and

local match amount. The City of Moline is responsible for funding 100% of this additional cost. This

item will also appear on the Council Agenda under “Non Consent Agenda” on November 15, 2016.

Staff Recommendation: Approval.

Fiscal Impact: $185,710 in MFT funds is budgeted in the 2017 Capital Improvement

Program for the local match. $259,139 is available in MFT Reserves to

fund that portion above the grant amount.

SUBJECT TO CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

AND FOIA EXEMPTION 5 ILCS 140/7 (m)

DATE: November 4th, 2016

TO: Keith Verbeke, Finance Manager, City of Moline

FROM: Jonathan Wezner, Senior Analyst, Azavar Government Solutions

SUBJECT: Alternative Gas Suppliers in Illinois

The City of Moline (the “City”) contracted with Azavar Government Solutions (“Azavar”) to audit utilities

including MidAmerican Energy Company (“MidAmerican”). As part of Azavar’s analysis of audit data from

MidAmerican we have identified a loophole whereby the City is losing municipal revenue each year. This

report provides background information relating to Azavar’s previous Findings and recommendation to

recover these lost revenues for the City.

Background of Natural Gas Market

Currently and since 2012, the City imposes a 5% tax on natural gas to service addresses within the City. This

tax is paid by MidAmerican to the City on all service addresses within the City when the gas delivered is

supplied by an in-state supplier (such as MidAmerican). However, the deregulation of natural gas changed

several fundamental aspects of the natural gas market over the last several decades which have also

changed factors that influence the collection of this tax.

In the early days of the industry, natural gas was typically produced within a municipality and the local

government oversaw the distribution to their citizenry due to the monopolistic nature of the product. As

the natural gas industry developed, providers began expanding the scope of their business by transporting

natural gas between municipal boundaries. Municipalities found it difficult or impossible to protect their

residents from being overcharged by overseeing the rates charged in the intrastate natural gas market and

so the government stepped in and created commissions to regulate rates and distribution.

Later on, technological advancements made it possible for natural gas providers to once again increase

their scope of business by leveraging interstate pipelines for the transportation of natural gas to customers.

As had previously occurred, the increased complexity of the natural gas distribution system made

regulation difficult and ineffective. This regulation gap again left customers susceptible to being

overcharged by an industry that was difficult to regulate and increasingly consolidating providers.

The federal government intervened and took responsibility for regulating the interstate natural gas sales.

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 2

Additionally, rules were put in place to curb the installment of redundant interstate natural gas pipelines by

competing companies within the same community. At this point, because of the monopolistic nature of the

pipelines, the delivery portion of interstate natural gas sales became regulated, but the original sales from

producers at the wellhead remained unregulated. This was altered when the Supreme Court decided in

Phillips Petroleum Co. v. Wisconsin that natural gas producers would also have their interstate portion of

the industry regulated.

Regulating this industry soon revealed itself to be a greater undertaking than originally suspected. By the

1970’s price setting by the government had fallen so far behind that producers found it not profitable to

explore new natural gas sources and eventually shortages followed. In short, the attempts to protect the

end customers from monopoly pricing had backfired. Of note, the difference in regulation of interstate and

intrastate pipeline delivery made it difficult to obtain natural gas in states where the gas was not produced.

The gradual move towards deregulation changed the landscape of the industry once again. The new

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission sought to close the schism between intrastate and interstate

natural gas delivery. However, the competitiveness of alternative forms of energy increasingly drew the

larger industrial consumers away. To stem this, natural gas suppliers offered incentives to these large

industrial users and allowed them to purchase natural gas directly from the supplier.

Soon after, FERC Order No. 436 took effect and the pipelines were to be used primarily for transportation

as opposed to selling a bundled service. This order offered more customers open access to the producers

of the natural gas not unlike the large industrial users were already receiving. To further cement this, FERC

Order No. 636 made the unbundled service of natural gas and delivery of natural gas a requirement thus

allowing customers greater flexibility in choosing who supplied the natural gas they purchased.

Natural Gas Market Today

As the market stands now there is currently an expanding market of interstate gas suppliers (also known as

Alternative Gas Suppliers) operating. As more and more Alternative Gas Suppliers provide services the

industry moves away from regulated monopoly pricing and towards pricing driven by competitively offered

products. As of 2015 there were 36 Alternative Gas Suppliers providing service to Illinois and that number

has already increased to 41 in 2016.

These Alternative Gas Suppliers provide their products to different market segments depending on which

utility provider’s territory they are selling to. Currently Nicor, Peoples and North Shore Gas have made

purchasing gas from an Alternative Gas Supplier easily available to each the residential, commercial and

industrial users. Alternatively, MidAmerican and Ameren have made it exceptionally difficult for all but the

industrial customers to purchase their natural gas from an Alternative Gas Supplier; this will very likely

change soon. Because Ameren’s provider territory has a much larger footprint than MidAmerican’s (Exhibit

A), Ameren has been the Illinois Chamber of Commerce’s (“ICC”) primary focus in expanding access equally

to all customers.

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 3

Exhibit A

Currently, The ICC has approved an expansion of access to Alternative Gas Suppliers to Ameren’s whole

customer base without unnecessary impediment. When this is implemented Ameren’s residential and

commercial customers will also have access to interstate gas purchases. Although Ameren has appealed

this ruling, it is now just a matter of delaying the inevitability that residential, commercial, and industrial

customers will all have access to Alternative Gas Suppliers just as all Nicor, Peoples and North Shore Gas

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 4

customers have. Shortly after Ameren un-impedes this service, we can expect the same from

MidAmerican. As the market currently stands, industrial users have access to a growing number of

Alternative Gas Suppliers and it is likely that the number available to MidAmerican’s residential and

commercial clients will grow rapidly after the current and significant roadblocks are removed (Exhibit B).

Exhibit B

Currently, Nicor customers have utilized these Alternative Gas Suppliers in larger numbers than customers

of other natural gas utilities in Illinois. In 2015, Nicor had 287,967 customers that had opted to purchase

their natural gas from an Alternative Gas Supplier leaving Nicor only responsible for the transportation of

that natural gas to their premises (Exhibit C).

Exhibit C

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 5

Nicor’s current count of customers who have switched to Alternative Gas Suppliers is a 29.5% increase (an

additional 65,684 customers) over the last 10 years. Currently Nicor’s customers account for over 70% of

the entire Illinois population that are leveraging services from Alternative Gas Suppliers, although all other

utility providers are also seeing an increase in the market proportion using Alternative Gas Suppliers as well

(Exhibit C). Ameren for example has seen their share of customers who have switched to Alternative Gas

Suppliers increase from 892 to 6,602 over the last 10 years an increase of 640%. MidAmerican has seen a

more modest gain of customers who have switched over the last 10 years at an increase of 28.26% (Exhibit

D)

Exhibit D

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 6

The majority of Alternative Gas Supplier customers are residential. For Nicor these customers have

numbered in the mid 230,000’s for the last 3 years (Exhibit E). This is roughly 11.6% percent of both the

residential customers and therms that Nicor transports during the year (Exhibit F). Additionally, other

provider’s customers are experiencing increases in residential customers switching to Alternative Gas

Suppliers as well. After Ameren is forced to allow its customers unrestricted access to Alternative Gas

Suppliers and MidAmerican follows suit, we can expect to see a steady increase that switch to Alternative

Gas Suppliers as well.

Exhibit E

Exhibit F

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 7

Many commercial customers have also switched to Alternative Gas Suppliers. This group is comprised of

small businesses and residential customers who consume less than 5,000 therms per year. Similar to the

residential market, there tends to be an increase in the percentage of the markets therms that the

switched users are consuming although these therms represent a smaller portion of the market than the

customers who have switched (Exhibit G). We also expect to see a steady increase in MidAmerican

customers who switch to Alternative Gas Suppliers and the therms they consume when this market

becomes available to them.

Exhibit G

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 8

In comparison to residential and commercial markets the industrial customers are less likely to switch to

Alternative Gas Suppliers. However, the industrial customers that do switch consume a disproportionally

large portion of the therms consumed in this market (Exhibit H). Thus a small portion of large volume

customers switching to Alternative Gas Suppliers can affect a very large portion of the therms consumed

and in all reporting utility companies, they do. Currently less than 10% of Ameren’s industrial customers

have switched to Alternative Gas Suppliers, however they account for over 80% of the therms consumed in

that market.

Exhibit H

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 9

The general trend of residential, commercial and industrial customers is an increasing propensity to

leverage the growing availability of Alternative Gas Suppliers. The below graph depicts the percentage of

therms that are purchased from an Alternative Gas Supplier compared to the total throughput therms in

each utility provider’s territory for 2013 - 2015 (Exhibit I). Currently, 20% of the therms MidAmerican

delivers to customers come from out-of-state. This is in part due to the growing number of Alternative Gas

Suppliers who in turn have driven prices to an increasingly competitive level. We can reasonably expect

that as Alternative Gas Suppliers become easily available to MidAmerican’s residential and commercial

customers the percentage of Alternative Gas Supplier therms consumed within Ameren’s territory will

increase.

Exhibit I

In addition to the increasingly competitive prices there is another distinct advantage for the customer when

their natural gas is purchased from Alternative Gas Suppliers; interstate purchases are exempt from some

local taxes. As opposed to intrastate purchases, only the delivery costs and not the actual natural gas

purchased have local taxes applied to it.

This loophole not only affects the local municipalities tax revenues but it had previously also affected State

level revenues. Prior to addressing this loophole, the State estimated that they were losing out on

approximately $70 million in natural gas tax receipts. In response, State lawmakers along with the

Governor signed into law P.A. 93-0031 (SB 1733) which created a State Natural Gas Use Tax (“GUT”). This

State GUT is imposed upon the privilege of using in this State gas obtained in interstate purchase at the

© Azavar – Confidential & Proprietary City of Moline Natural Gas Findings November 2016 Page 10

same rate as the regular State natural gas tax. This state GUT only applied to the growing number of

customers who opted into interstate gas purchases from Alternative Gas Suppliers and did not change any

taxes to those who were already purchasing gas from within the State.

Azavar Finds that through analysis of and in recent discussions with MidAmerican there are several

customers within the City that are using an Alternative Gas Supplier. Although MidAmerican has declined

to share comprehensive data at the individual user level due to privacy concerns, Azavar recommends that

the City bring parity and equitability to the taxation of natural gas as intended by the municipal utility tax

by approving an update to the City’s ordinance. The State of Illinois allows home rule communities to

assess a municipal GUT, not unlike the State GUT, to capture tax on natural gas use that is not already

captured by the City’s municipal utility tax. An update to the City’s ordinances to cover the use of gas by

addresses that are purchasing gas from an Alternative Gas Supplier will close the loophole that has allowed

some users to avoid paying their fair share of the municipal utility tax.

The impact of this tax will not affect those customers currently purchasing gas within the State of Illinois

and paying the City’s municipal utility tax. Residents and businesses within the City would pay either the

current municipal utility tax or the use tax depending upon the source of the gas purchased. Azavar will

provide the ordinance template and assist the City in closing this loophole.

The above provides background information related to Azavar’s previous Findings and recommendations

regarding this portion of our audit of MidAmerican. Azavar’s staff is available to assist in moving forward to

correct these issues, update the City’s ordinances, and maximizing the City’s revenues.
