commencing with the first billing cycle on or after August 1, 2016.
Section 2. AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENTS. The 2016 Rate Schedule shall be
automatically adjusted on an annual basis without further action of the Board based upon
the application of the Florida Public Service Commission utility price index, as established
from time to time by the Florida Public Service Commission pursuant to Florida Statute
section 367.081(4)(a), as amended, ("Cost Adjustment"), to the then existing rates, fees
and charges of the District. Prior to application of this automatic Cost Adjustment
provision, the District Utility Director shall submit to the Board at a St. Lucie County Board
of County Commissioners meeting a report detailing the amount of the adjustment and the
new rates, fees and charges, as adjusted. In addition, the rates, fees and charges of the
District shall be automatically increased without further action of the Board based upon the
implementation of a rate increase to the District by any utility which provides utility service
to the District, or upon implementation or increase of any taxes or assessments levied by a
governmental authority against the District ("Cost Pass-through"). Prior to application of
this Cost Pass-through provision, the District Utility Director shall submit to the Board at
a St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners meeting a report detailing the amount
of the adjustment and the new rates, fees and charges, as adjusted. Unless the Board votes
to withhold an automatic Cost Adjustment or Cost Pass-through, the District's Schedule of
rates, fees, and charges shall be adjusted pursuant to this section as required effective as of

automatic adjustments set forth in this section.
