Direct Testimony of Clay G. White

WITNESS BACKGROUND

Please state your name and business address.

My name is Clayton G. White and my business address is Town of Riley, PO Box

4 501, Riley, IN 47802.

5 Q. What is your position with the Town of Riley (the "Town")?

6 A. I am currently at the end of my 13th year as an elected Board Member. I have served

7 as President of the Town Board since January 1, 2008. I along with my fellow board

8 members, Sean Trevathan and Harry Wilson, the Town's Clerk-Treasurer, Wanda

9 Hylton, the Town's attorney, Richard J. Shagley II, have worked with representatives

10 of Indiana-American Water Company, Inc. ("Indiana American") during this process

11 of evaluating the possibility of selling the Town's wastewater system. Indiana

12 American previously acquired the Town's water system in2011 in Cause No. 43855.

13 Q. What is your educational and professional background?

14 A. I graduated from Terre Haute North High School in 1994. I attended Indiana State

15 University and then began working at Putnamville Correctional Facility from

February 1998 to May 2000. Beginning in May 2000 I worked for the Vigo County

Sheriffs Department starting as a jail officer and Special Deputy Cell Extraction

Team. In 2003, I moved into the Deputy role and was promoted to Detective in

November 2005. I began my first term as a Town Board Member in January of 2006.

I have served as President of the Town Board since January 2008.

PROPOSED ACQUISITION

Are you familiar with the proposed acquisition of the wastewater utility

properties owned by the Town (the "Riley System") by Indiana American?

Yes. I, along with the above mentioned people, were involved in the public process

and negotiations that led to the asset purchase agreement which is sponsored by

Douglas A. Brock as Attachment DAB-2.

Why has the Town decided to sell its wastewater utility to Indiana American?

The Town believes that it would be in the best interest of its customers and the Town

for Indiana American to take over the ownership of the wastewater utility. The

operation of the utility is controlled by the Riley Town Board. The Town Board does

not have the time, technical expertise or the resources to manage a wastewater utility,

especially in today's age of increasing environmental regulation. The Town does not

have the financial resources to continue operating the utility and cannot attract capital

to finance the necessary improvements to upgrade the system. Further, the Town

Board lacks the technical expertise and personnel needed to operate the utility. We

have struggled to maintain a certified operator and, at best, can only maintain a part­

time operator that is only available a limited number of hours thereby leaving the

community without 24/7 operations. In fact, our prior part-time operator resigned,

and Indiana American has been operating the Riley System pursuant to an Operation

and Maintenance Agreement dated March 15, 2019.

Why do you believe Indiana American is in a better position to operate the Riley

System?

Indiana America is in the business of providing water and wastewater services to the

public and has the technical, managerial and financial expertise necessary to operate

the Town's wastewater utility in a far more efficient and effective manner than the

Town Board is currently operating it. The Town is in a position where, absent a sale

to Indiana American, it would have to make significant capital improvements that

would require the Town to raise its rates considerably. Further, Indiana American

employs qualified operators who can provide 24/7 operations and assistance to the

community. We believe that our constituents, who are also our customers, deserve a

level of service and quality that we are ill-equipped to provide. Further, the cost to

customers associated with the Town owning and managing the wastewater utility is

far greater than it will be with Indiana American operating the utility. All of these

considerations led the Town Board to evaluate the possibility of selling the Town's

wastewater utility to Indiana American Water.

Please describe the negotiations between Indiana American and the Town.

We began our discussions following the Town's appointment of appraisers in March,

2017. The Town followed the appraisal process necessary to sell its wastewater

assets (described below) and conducted negotiations with Indiana American which

resulted in an asset purchase agreement (the "Asset Purchase Agreement") being

finalized and signed effective February 4, 2019.

Were the negotiations leading up to the execution of the Agreement conducted

at arms length?

Q.

A.

What action has the Town Board taken to implement the sale?

The Riley Town Board voted on March 6, 2017 to appoint the official appraisers of

the Riley System. The appraisers were Peter Wamsley, P .E. with BLN Engineering,

an Indiana Registered Professional Engineer; Kent S. Elliott, P.E. with Banning

Engineering, an Indiana Registered Professional Engineer; and John T. Newlin, an

Indiana Certified Real Estate Appraiser. Mr. Newlin returned an appraisal of the land

only on May 2, 2017. Because of the inadequacy of the Town's records, an appraisal

of the actual sewer facilities was significantly delayed. A copy of that appraisal

signed by both professional engineers was returned on July 9, 2018. Both appraisals

are attached as Attachment CGW-1. The statutory required public hearing was held

on September 26, 2018, and on November 5, 2018, the Town Council formally voted

to sell the sewer system to Indiana American for a price of$1,453,373.32. This price

was less than the appraised value in order that sewer rates to be charged by Indiana

American could be lower. We only recently realized that we needed to adopt an

ordinance to finalize what we had voted to do on November 5, 2018, and the Town

Council has since enacted that ordinance, which is attached as Attachment CGW-2.

Other than the public notice and the public hearing, what other

communications have you had with Riley customers regarding the sale?

The Town held several Board meetings, in excess of the statutory requirements, to

determine public opinion and receive input regarding the proposed sale.

Additionally, Mr. Prine and other officials from Indiana American have attended

numerous Town Board meetings to provide an opportunity for customers to get

answers directly from Indiana American. The response from these meetings was

clear that the citizens were overwhelmingly in favor of the proposed transaction.

Have any customers expressed to the Town opposition to the proposed sale?

No.

Does this conclude your direct testimony?

Yes, at this time.

Section One - Introduction

Cause No. 45290 Attachment CGW-1

Page 4 of 58

The Town of Riley wastewater system dates back to the early 1970's. Plans of the

original system show that the older portion of town along Highway 46 and the

southern and eastern sides of the lake were the original portion of the wastewater

system. Between 1970 and 2008 the land surrounding the lake was developed and

the wastewater collection system was expanded. The original treatment plant had a

capacity of 0.11 MGD. In 1997, the plant was expanded and an additional 0.24

MGD extended aeration package-type treatment plant was installed. The system

currently serves approximately 432 customers.

The purpose of this valuation is to provide the Town of Riley information on the

estimated value of its wastewater utility. The Town of Riley retained Beam, Longest,

and Neff ("BLN") and Banning Engineering ("Banning") as two of the three required

entities to complete this inventory and valuation of the Town of Riley wastewater

utility system. A real estate appraiser was retained as the third required entity in

order to value the land. The following sections represent a description of the utility

as well as the supporting documentation for the developed value of the utility and its

assets.

Section Two - Service Area

The Town of Riley is in Vigo County, Indiana, approximately 8 miles to the southeast

of Terre Haute and 66 miles to the southwest of Indianapolis. US 46 runs through the

center of Town, Indiana Highway 159 runs along the southwest side of the Town. The

majority of the service area is residential, but it also contains commercial and

industrial facilities located on the southwest side of town. The service area as shown

in Figure 1 in the attached Appendix A.

Section Three - Scope of the Valuation

Banning and BLN entered into a contract with Town of Riley to prepare an appraisal

of their wastewater utility assets. The scope of services to be provided in that

appraisal includes the following:

1. Meet with the Town of Riley to gather information and view the wastewater

utility assets.

2. Review existing reports, maps, financial information and other documents

related to the wastewater utility.

3. Prepare an appraisal report that will include a description of the wastewater

utility assets, assumptions, method of appraisal, and determined valuation of

the utility. The description of the wastewater utility assets should include the

type, quantity and age of the various asset classes. The appraisal would be

based on information provided by the Town of Riley.

4. Submit three copies of the Appraisal Report to the Town of Riley.

5. If a discrepancy exists between the Appraisal Report prepared under the

contract and other appraisal reports prepared for the Town of Riley's

wastewater utility at this time, coordination and negotiation with other

appraisers will be done to arrive at an appraised amount that is agreeable to

all the appraisers.

6. If necessary, a revised Appraisal Report will be prepared and submitted to the

Town of Riley.

Banning and BLN each made individual site visits to Riley. Banning visited the

collection system and treatment plant on November 15, 2017 and BLN visited the

collection system and treatment plant on December 14, 2017. The Town Council

wastewater plant operator.

Section Four - Existing Wastewater Facilities

Introduction

The Town of Riley currently owns and operates a public wastewater system consisting

of the following: A Class I, 0.24 million gallons per day (MGD) extended aeration

treatment facility, 3 lift stations, and a sewer collection system.The following reports

and/or information listed below were provided by various parties which are

referenced:

• GIS data compiled and maintained by the Town of Riley and BLN.

• Plans and construction documents provided by the Town and Riley and

obtained from IDEM's virtual file cabinet

The wastewater treatment facility, lift stations, and collection system were visited by

Banning and BLN. The facilities were observed and photos of each were taken.

A summary of the Town of Riley's wastewater system infrastructure includes the

following:

■ A Class I, 0.24 million gallons per day (MGD) extended aeration

treatment facility with flow equalization basins and ultraviolet light

disinfection

■ Approximately 5,780 feet of 12-inch sanitary sewer gravity main

■ Approximately 1,620 feet of 10-inch sanitary sewer gravity main

■ Approximately 32,660 feet of 8-inch sanitary sewer gravity main

■ Approximately 2,632 feet of 6-inch sanitary sewer forcemain

■ Approximately 1,730 feet of 2-1/2-inch sanitary sewer forcemain

■ Approximately 1,400 feet of 1-1/2-inch sanitary sewer forcemain

■ Approximately 14 7 manholes

■ 3 lift stations

A detailed description of each of the major system components of the wastewater

system is presented in the following sections.

Wastewater Treatment

Riley's main wastewater treatment plant is located at 5200 Frye Street, just south of

Honey Creek. The Wastewater Treatment Plant includes:

■ An influent/blower structure with comminutor and screens

■ One 0.24 MGD extended aeration package plant

■ An ultraviolet disinfection tank

■ One 80,000 gallon sludge lagoon

■ One 350,000-gallon flow equalization basin with floating aeration

■ One 257,000-gallon flow equalization basin with floating aeration

■ One 300,000-gallon flow equalization basin

Following is a brief description of the operation of the treatment process:

Wastewater enters the treatment plant via twin 6-inch force mains from the Main Lift

Station located approximately 1,200 feet south of the plant. These pumped flows

are first conveyed through the Influent Structure where a channel macerator breaks

down solids for further treatment. During normal operating conditions, wastewater is

routed from the Influent Structure to the 0.24 MGD extended aeration package plant

for biological treatment. Effluent from the package plant is conveyed to the

ultraviolet tank for disinfection before discharging into an unnamed tributary to the

Old Wabash and Erie Canal in accordance with the NDPES Permit for this facility.

During wet weather conditions, wastewater is routed from the Influent Structure to a

350,000-gallon Flow Equalization Basin with three (3) floating aerators. Another

Cause No. 45290 Attachment CGW-1

Page 8 of 58

257,000-gallon Flow Equalization Basin with two (2) floating aerators and a

300,000-gallon Flow Equalization Basin are both available for additional storage

during peak flow events. Once plant capacity is restored following these wet weather

events, contents of the equalization basins are drained and pumped back through

the Influent Structure as described in the previous paragraph.

Sludge is drawn off the extended aeration package plant and temporarily held in an

80,000-gallon sludge lagoon located near the entrance to the plant. Sludge is

periodically pumped from this lagoon by others for land application. A schematic of

the Town's wastewater treatment plant processes is shown in Figure 2 in the

attached Appendix A.

Wastewater Collection System

The original wastewater collection system was constructed in the 1970's; however,

the system has continued to expand over the years. The sewers range in size from 1-

1/2-inch to 12-inch diameter, and provide wastewater collection service throughout

the system to an estimated 432 wastewater customers. The portion of the system

from the 1970s is construction of vitrified clay, and the new portion of the system is

constructed of PVC. A small percentage of the earlier installed pipe was of concrete

construction. These were typical materials used for the time periods in which they

were installed. A map of the Town's wastewater collection system can be seen in

Figure 3 in the attached Appendix A.

Section Five - Valuation Method

Cause No. 45290 Attachment CGW-1

Page 9 of 58

The valuation method utilized for the appraisal of the Town of Riley wastewater

system is the Depreciated Replacement Cost Method for system valuation. This

valuation method has been used in determining the fair purchase value of a utility in

many acquisition transactions involving municipalities. Given the varied age of the

system and lack of sufficient financial records to support rate base or asset value of

the Town of Riley's wastewater utility assets, this method is recommended as the

most appropriate means to determine the value of the wastewater treatment and

collection system. The information provided by the Town of Riley, the wastewater

collection system map, the site visits, information collected from contractors and

vendors, as well as engineering judgments and assumptions, were used to identify

the value of the wastewater facilities in as much detail as is practical.

In general, when determining depreciation, the expected useful life of each type of

asset in the system is considered. In some cases, such as with the manholes and

older sewers, useful life calculations result in a zero current value. While many of

those assets are still providing service, it is difficult to derive from a valuation effort

of this scope whether those assets have measurable real value to a purchaser due to

an undefined replacement date of those assets by the prospective purchaser.

The useful life periods assigned to each major system asset classification for this

valuation is shown in Table 5-1 below.

Section Six - Estimated Utility Valuation

The results for the recommended utility valuation method analysis for the Town of

Riley are given below in Table 6-1. A detailed breakdown of the replacement cost

and balance of useful life calculation for each asset is included in Section 5. Due

both to the Indiana statue that allows for certain utilities to be valued without making

an adjustment for contributed property, and the fact that no information was

provided relative to contributed property or grants, no reduction in this valuation was

made for those such items.

May 2, 2017

In accordance with the request of Richard J. Shagley II, as attorney for the Town of Riley, I have inspected and appraised the land of the Riley Wastewater Treatment facility being a nearly square 2.21 acre tract, located northeast of the Town of Riley on the east side of Frye Street about 0.8 mile north of Indiana Highway 46 in Riley Township, Vigo County, Indiana. The frontage on Frye Street is about 310 feet. The property is further identified as Tax Parcel 84-10-15-100-002.000-018.

The assessor shows the property to be owned by the Town of Riley.

It is my opinion, having no present or contemplated future interest in this property, that the market value of the fee simple title of the land only, assuming the land to be vacant, as of March 21, 2017, the date of my inspection, was:

FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($15,000)

An appraisal report that identifies and describes the property and presents the analyses that led to the conclusion of value is attached.

The land only, assuming the land to be vacant, of a nearly square 2.21 acre tract, located northeast of the Town of Riley on the east side of Frye Street about 0.8 mile north oflndiana Highway 46 in Riley Township, Vigo, County, Indiana. The frontage on Frye Street is about 310 feet. The property is further identified as Tax Parcel 84-10-15-100-002.000-018.

INTENDED USE

To assist the Town of Riley in establishing a fair sale price for the property.

INTENDED USER

The Town of Riley.

DEFINITION OF MARKET VALUE

Market value is the major focus of most real estate appraisal assignments. Both economic and legal definitions of market value have been developed and refined. A current economic definition agreed upon by federal financial institutions in the United States of America is:

The most probable price which a property should bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions requisite to a fair sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably, and assuming the price is not affected by undue stimulus. Implicit in this

Page 44 of 58

Riley, Indiana

definition is the consummation of a sale as of a specified date and the passing of title from seller to buyer under conditions whereby:

1. buyer and seller are typically motivated;

2. both parties are well informed and well advised, and acting in what they consider their best interests;

3. a reasonable time is allowed for exposure in the open market;

4. payment is made in terms of cash in United States dollars or in terms of financial arrangements comparable thereof; and

5. the price represents the normal consideration for the property sold unaffected by special or creative financing or sales concessions granted by anyone associated with the sale. (12 C.F.R. Part 34.42(g); 55 Federal Register 34696, August 24, 1990, as amended at 57 Federal Register 12202, April 9, 1992; 59 Federal Register 29499, June 7, 1994).

SCOPE

I was engaged to be one of three appraisers to estimate the value of the storm water facility of the Town of Riley by a letter from Richard J. Shagley II, as attorney for the Town of Riley, dated March 9, 2017. I identified the property by records on the internet by the Vigo County Assessor. I visited the property on March 21, 2017. I took photographs from the neighboring road. I observed the neighborhood.

I searched the county records, the Multiple Listing Service records, and data in the files of our office for sales of comparable properties. I analyzed the data and developed an estimate of the market value of the land assuming the land to be vacant.

At 3:30 PM on April 4, I met with Richard J. Shagley II, attorney for the Town of Riley and with the two others that were engaged to prepare the appraisal of the Riley Wastewater Treatment facility: Chris Kaufman, water resource manager with Beam, Longest and Neff, and Jeff Henson CPA, with Banning Engineering PC. The appraisal is to include the real estate value and also the value of sewer lines, water treatment equipment, and other equipment, real and personal that are a part of the sewer and sewer treatment facilities. It was concluded in this meeting that I would prepare the appraisal of the land portion of the sewage treatment facility and the other two would jointly prepare the appraisal of the sewer system and the sewage treatment equipment. The final valuation would combine the separate appraisals.

IDSTORY OF THE PROPERTY

The assessor's record shows that the storage building on the property was built in 1968. I assume the property has been owned by the Town of Riley since before 1968. I have no knowledge of the property having been offered for sale.

ASSESSED VALUE AND TAX

The property is exempt from real estate tax because it is classed as government owned non-taxable. Future owners may not qualify as tax exempt.

The property is assessed at: land, $33,600; improvements, $47,300. Total: $80,900. The assessor shows improvements as: a 121 sq ft, 1968-era building: a 1960-era, 50,000 steel bin; and a 1968-era, 30,000 steel bin.

In Indiana the assessed value is intended to be the market value for the property in its present use. It is unlikely that the present assessed value is based on any research other than listing the obvious improvements at the time that property was inspected by the assessor.

Future owners would expect the annual real estate tax to be based on the current law that provides for the annual tax for commercial properties to be taxed at 3% of the assessed value. This would be 3% of$80,900 or $2,427.

I do not believe this assessment data will influence the value of the land only, assuming the land to be vacant. The assessor may not have considered the zoning or the flood hazard in the land assessment.

ZONING

The county zoning map shows that the property is zoned R-S, Single Family Suburban Residential District. This zoning permits single family dwellings as the primary use. Agricultural usage is permitted. A sewage treatment facility is clearly not among the legal uses. The ordinance was dated October 21, 1996.

The zoning ordinance provides for non-conforming situations that were established prior to the effective date of the zoning ordinance to continue to be used but the structures shall not be enlarged upon, expanded, or extended.

The present use is a legal non-conforming use. Because this appraisal is of the land only, assuming the land to be vacant, the zoning is applicable. Buyers would consider the land to be zoned for single family use.

FLOOD HAZARD

Flood Insurance Rate Map 18167C0168C, eff. 2/18/2011 shows the appraised property to be in Zone A, area of 100-year flood. Flood insurance is required by lenders for mortgage loans of properties in Zone A.

ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARDS

I have no knowledge of any environmental hazards. This appraisal is made under the reasonable assumption that environmental hazards, ifthere are any, will not influence the market value of the appraised property.

DESCRIPTION OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD

The property is located in an area that would be considered as a part of the Riley area. Riley has a population of 221 according to the 2010 census. It is a part of the Terre Haute metropolitan area. Lakewood Subdivision adjoins Riley along the north side of the town. Lakewood Subdivision has an area of perhaps 100 acres. It has been developed during the past 30 years as an attractive residential area.

The appraised property is on the east side of Frye Street. Frye Street runs north from Indiana Highway 46 along the east side of the Town of Riley and the east side of Lakewood Subdivision. Frye Street follows a rather narrow ravine that once was the route of the Wabash and Erie Canal. There are single family residences scattered along the higher ground east of Frye Street. Typical home sites are from 2 to 5 acres. Typical residences sell in the price range of $80,000 to $150,000.

The west side of Frye Street is wooded low land.

All utilities are available. Frye Street is a well-maintained, asphalt surfaced county road.

DESCRIPTION OF THE SITE

The site is nearly level and at street level.

IDGHEST AND BEST USE OF THE LAND

The zoning permits agricultural use or single family residential use. The flood hazard prohibits new residential construction. There is no agricultural use of similar land along Frye Street. The best use is for access to adjoining higher land to the east and as excess land for use with such adjoining higher land.

ESTIMATE OF LAND VALUE

I found no recent sales of land along Frye Street.

Cause No. 45290 Attachment CGW-1

Page 52 of 58

Because the best use was considered to be used in conjunction with higher neighboring land, the following sales will be used as guides to the value of the appraised land.

Sale 1. 3390 Egan. (MLS #75602) A 5.59 acre wooded tract that is divided by a creek. $34,000.

9/25/2015. The property is at the northeast comer of Egan and Ft. Harrison. City water. This is a suburban area northeast of Terre Haute. $6,082 per acre.

Sale 2. About 5200 North Creal Street. (MLS #81288) A 7.065, acre partly wooded, nearly

level tract in a suburban area northeast of Terre Haute. City water. $40,000. 11/16/2016. $5,662 per acre.

Sale 3. 3301 Voorhees. (MLS #78304). An irregular wooded tract of about 3.2 acres that is cut

by a ravine. All utilities. This is in Stratford Hills Subdivision, a 1940-era subdivision of quality homes that is a suburban area southeast of Terre Haute. Helen A venue is along the south side of this tract. 2/26/2016. $25,000. $7,812 per acre.

Conclusion. If the appraised property were sold to an adjoining property owner, the land would be in

the same market as the above sold properties. The value would be in the range of $5,000 to $8,000 per acre with the most likely value being $6,000 per acre. For the 2.21 acres of the appraised property, this is $13,260. Round to $15,000.

ASSUMPTIONS AND LIMITING CONDITIONS

2. The property is appraised free and clear of any or all liens or encumbrances unless otherwise stated.

3. Responsible ownership and competent property management are assumed.

8. It is assumed that all applicable zoning and use regulations and restrictions, including subdivision restrictions, have been complied with, unless a nonconformity has been stated, defined, and considered in the appraisal report.

9. It is assumed that all required licenses, certificates of occupancy consents, or other legislative or administrative authority from any local, state, or national government or private entity or organization have been or can be obtained or renewed for any use on which the value estimate contained in this report is based.

12. Unless otherwise stated in this report, the existence of hazardous material, which may or may not be present on the property, was not observed by the appraiser. The appraiser has no knowledge of the existence of such materials on or in the property. The appraiser, however, is not qualified to detect such substances. The presence of substances such as asbestos, urea-formaldehyde foam insulation, or other potentially hazardous materials may affect the value of the property. The value estimate is predicated on the assumption that there is no such material on or in the property that would cause a loss in value. No responsibility is assumed for any such conditions, or for any expertise or engineering knowledge required to discover them. The client is urged to retain an expert in this field, if desired.

The appraiser has noted in the appraisal report any adverse conditions (such as needed repairs, depreciation, the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) observed during the inspection of the subject property or that he or she became aware of during the normal research involved in performing the appraisal. Unless otherwise stated in the appraisal report, the appraiser has no knowledge of any hidden or unapparent conditions of the property or adverse environmental conditions (including the presence of hazardous wastes, toxic substances, etc.) that would make the property more or less valuable, and has assumed that there are no such conditions and makes no guarantees or warranties, express or implied, regarding the condition of the property. The appraiser will not be responsible for any such conditions that do exist or for any engineering or testing that might be required to discover whether such conditions exist. Because the appraiser is not an expert in the field of environmental hazards, the appraisal report must not be considered as an environmental assessment of the property.

B. This appraisal report has been made with the following general limiting conditions:

1. The distribution, if any, of the total valuation in this report between land and improvements applies only under the stated program of utilization. The separate allocations for land and buildings must not be used in conjunction with any other appraisal and are invalid if so used.

2. Possession of this report, or a copy thereof, does not carry with it the right of publication. It may not be used for any purpose by any person other than the party to whom it is addressed without the written consent of the appraiser, and in any event only with proper written qualification and only in its entirety.

3. The appraiser herein by reason of this appraisal is not required to give further consultation, testimony, or be in attendance in court with reference to the property in question unless arrangements have been previously made.

4. Neither all nor any part of the contents of this report (especially any conclusions as to value, the identity of the appraiser, or the firm with which the appraiser is connected) shall be disseminated to the public through advertising, public relations, news, sales, or other media without the prior written consent and approval of the appraiser.

ORDINANCE NO. 2-2019

AN ORDINANCE FOR THE TOWN OF RILEY PROVIDING FOR THE SALE OF THE TOWN'S SANITARY SEWER UTILITY

WHEREAS, the Town of Riley ("Town") owns and operates a sanitary sewer utility pursuant to Indiana Code ch. 36-9-23; and

WHEREAS, the Town is incapable of operating its sewer utility in compliance with regulations of the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and is currently the subject of an Agreed Order relating to the same; and

WHEREAS, the Town no longer has its required certified operator of its sewer utility and has been relying upon Indiana-American Water Company, Inc. ("Indiana American") for several months to provide this essential service; and

WHEREAS, on March 6, 2017, the Town appointed three appraisers possessing the qualifications set forth in Indiana Code § 8-1.5-2-4 to provide an appraisal of the just and true value of the sewer system; and

WHEREAS, the three appraisers were John T. Newlin (licensed real estate appraiser), Peter Wamsley (licensed professional engineer), and Kent S. Elliott (licensed professional engineer); and

WHEREAS, Mr. Newlin returned an appraisal of the real estate on May 2, 2017, with the value of such real estate assigned at $15,000; and

WHEREAS, due to inadequate records maintained by the Town, it took much longer for the engineering appraisers to complete a value of the plant and equipment, which delays were discussed from time to time during Council meetings in the interim; and

WHEREAS, on July 9, 2018, two of the appraisers who are licensed professional engineers signed an appraisal assigning the just and true value of the sewer utility at $2,749,120; and

WHEREAS, this Council held a public hearing on September 26, 2018 to explain the appraisal and receive public comment on the same; and

WHEREAS, a copy of the agenda of the public hearing is attached as Exhibit A; and

WHEREAS, during the public hearing, the Council heard presentations regarding accepting amounts less than appraised value and the resulting reductions in rates that would result from the lower prices; and

Page 1 of 3

Page 67: INDIANA-AMERICAN WATER COMP ANY, INC. INDIANA UTILITY ...

Cause No. 45290 Attachment CGW-2 Page 2 of 33

WHEREAS, on November 5, 2018, this Council voted to sell the sewer utility to Indiana American for a price of $1,453,373.32, a figure which was less than the appraised value on the appraisal signed by Messrs. Wamsley and Elliott because this Council determined it is in Riley's best interests to sell for less than full appraised value so as to result in lower utility rates to be charged by Indiana American; and

WHEREAS, a copy of the minutes of the November 5, 2018 Council meeting are attached hereto as Exhibit B; and

WHEREAS, even though the Council proceeded through these various steps and made the required determination to sell, the Council did not actually adopt an ordinance providing for what it had detennined to do; and

WHEREAS, to the extent the Town did not take every required step in the correct sequence to sell its sanitary sewer utility, this Council has determined that it is in the best interest for the Town, its citizens, and the customers of the Town's sanitary sewer utility for the Town to sell its sanitary sewer utility to Indiana American as specified herein and this Council hereby ratifies the actions to appoint the appraisers, the retum of the appraisal on July 9, 2018, and the decision to sell for less than appraised value that was made by this Council on November 5, 2018.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED by the Town Council of the Town of Riley that:

I . This Council has previously determined to sell its sewer utility to Indiana American for a purchase price of $1,453,373.32 and is hereby adopting this Ordinance to ratify that decision.

2. This Council has previously determined and hereby ratifies the decision to accept less than the full appraised value for the sanitary sewer system so as to result in lower rates to be charged after the closing.

3. The sale shall be pursuant to the Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit C. 4. This Ordinance shall be effective on and after its adoption.
