REVENUES

The revenue table compares amounts received through the fourth quarter and conclusion of FY 2016-2017 to the amounts budgeted for that same time-period. Total revenues collected were $10,557,512, or 80.9% of the budgeted amount of $13,042,545. Variances within the individual revenue categories are described below:

• Water Supply Charge revenues were $3,401,626, or 100.0% of the budget for the period. This was in line with the budgeted figure.
• Mitigation revenue was $2,039,913, or 81.0% of the budget. Mitigation revenue was replaced by the User Fee. This line includes Mitigation revenue billed through April 18, 2017.
• Property tax revenues were $1,820,413, or 113.8% of the budget for the period. This was higher than anticipated due to increase in property values resulting in higher property tax allocation for the District.
• User fee revenues were $1,156,363, or about 1217.2% of the amount budgeted. The User Fee was implemented from April 19, 2017. District did not anticipate the start date in this fiscal year and thus it was not budgeted.
• Connection Charge revenues were $370,255, or 174.2% of the budget for the period. Actual collection was higher than anticipated budgeted figure as the forecasted figures are based on estimated number of customers pulling permits. There was more connection charge received than budgeted for the fiscal year.
• Permit Fees revenues were $243,787, or 105.5% of the budget for the period. Actual collection was higher than anticipated budgeted figure as the forecasted figures are based on estimated number of customers pulling permits. There was more permit fees received than budgeted for the fiscal year.
• Interest revenues were $22,359, or 111.8% of the budget for the period. Actual interest received was slightly higher than budgeted.
• Reimbursements of $1,390,565, or 63.9% of the budget. This is based on actual spending and collection of reimbursement project funds. This is considerably less than the budgeted amount as many projects were deferred and continued to next fiscal year.
• Grant revenue of 89,276, or 27.0% of the budget. Actual revenue received was lower than budgeted due to grant funded projects being deferred and continued to next fiscal year.
• The Other revenue category totaled $22,955 or about 60.4% of the budgeted amount. This category includes reimbursement revenues from legal and other miscellaneous services. Actual collections were lower than anticipated.
• The Reserves category totaled $0 or about 0.00% of the budgeted amount. This category includes potential use of reserves, water supply carry forward balance and the line of credit during the fiscal year for which adjustments are made at the conclusion of the fiscal year.

• Debt Service included costs of $137,086, or 59.6% of the budget for the period. Principal paid on the debt was recorded against the outstanding liability.
• Contingencies/Other expenditures $0, or 0% of the budgeted amount. This was due to the contingency budget not spent during this fiscal year.
