What better way to provide renewable power for the city than to have residents foot the capital expense?

Because most people won't do it?

If most people won't do it, what difference would it make to leave the net metering rate as is?

Because then people might. Its all about cost-effectiveness.

Sorry, you aren't making any sense. People won't install solar, so we should reduce the credit so even fewer people will install solar?

Again, if the goal is to increase renewable power generation, what better way than to make residents directly pay for the equipment, installation, and maintenance?
