SUMMARY: The second quarter of Fiscal Year (FY) 2013-2014 came to a conclusion on December 31, 2013. Table comparing budgeted and actual year-to-date revenues and expenditures for the period are included as Exhibit 7-A. Exhibits 7-B and 7-C presents the same information in bar graph format. The following comments summarize District staff's observations:

REVENUES

The revenue table compares amounts received through the second quarter to the amounts budgeted for that same time period. Total revenues collected were $3,882,574, or 50.7% of the budgeted amount of $7,659,857. Variances within the individual revenue categories are described below:

• Water Supply Charge revenues were $1,973,210, or 116.1% of the budget for the period. The first installment of this revenue was received in December 2013. The second installment is expected to be collected in April 2014.
• Mitigation revenue was $143,000, or 15.9%. This is billed and collected in arrears.
• Property tax revenues were $850,681, or 121.3% of the budget for the period. The first installment of this revenue was received in December 2013. The second installment is expected to be collected in April 2014.
• User fee revenues were $26,721, or 53.4% of the amount budgeted. This is below the budgeted amount as Reclamation Project’s share is billed and collected at the end of the fiscal year.
• Interest revenues were $3,034, or 60.7% of the budget for the period. This is due to low interest rates received from the financial institutions. Currently, the interest rates are set around 1/4 percent. Also, second quarter interest revenue for LAIF is not received until January 2014. Additionally, interest bearing CD interests are received semi-annually.
• Project reimbursements of $548,678, or 27.7% of the budget. This is considerably less than the budgeted amount as many projects were deferred and continued to next quarter.
• Grant revenue of $131,402, or 20.4% of the budget. This is considerably less than the budgeted amount as the grant funded projects were deferred and continued to next quarter.
• The “Other” revenue category totaled $9,183 or about 0.6% of the budgeted amount. This is well below budget as this category includes potential use of reserves, water supply carry forward balance and the line of credit during the fiscal year.

EXPENDITURES

Expenditure activity as depicted on the table is similar to patterns seen in past fiscal years. Total expenditures of $4,008,748 were about 52.3% of the budgeted amount of $7,659,857 for the period. Variances within the individual expenditure categories are described below:

• Personnel costs of $1,601,379 were about 98.6% of the budget for the period.
• Expenditures for supplies and services were $465,830, or about 97.3% of the budgeted amount.
• Fixed assets purchases of $12,827 represented around 24.5% of the budgeted amount. Some asset purchases have been deferred to next quarter.
• Funds spent for project expenditures were $1,928,712, or approximately 36.6% of the amount budgeted for the period. This is due to some project expenditures being deferred to next quarter.
• Debt Service, Election costs, and Contingencies/Other included costs of $0, or 0% of the budget for the period. All of these expenditures deferred to next quarter.
