REVENUES
 
The revenue table
compares amounts received through the current quarter of FY 2022-2023 to the
amounts budgeted for that same time-period. 
Total revenues collected were $21,306,360, or 86.9% of the budgeted
amount of $24,521,550.  Variances within
the individual revenue categories are described below:
 
 - Water Supply Charge revenues were $2,022,764, or 79.3%
     of the budget for the period.  The
     first installment of this revenue was received in December 2022. The
     second installment will be received in April 2023. 
- Property tax revenues were $1,429,959, or 76.3% of
     the budget for the period.  The
     first installment of this revenue was received in December 2022. The
     second installment will be received in April 2023.   
- User fee revenues were $3,862,124, or about 93.6% of
     the amount budgeted.  This is slightly
     lower than the budgeted amount.
- Pure Water Monterey Water Sales revenue was $11,149,051,
     or 121.8% of the budget for the period. 
     This is water sales revenue for water purchased from Monterey One
     Water and sold to California American Water and is a pass-through to the District.
- Connection Charge revenues were $280,635, or 74.8% of
     the budget for the period.  Actual
     collection was lower than anticipated budgeted figure as the forecasted
     figures are based on estimated number of customers pulling permits.  There were less connections received
     than budgeted for the current quarter.
 
 - Permit Fees revenues were $153,957, or 103.7% 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 were more permits received than
     budgeted for the current quarter.
- Interest revenues were $115,544, or 192.6% of the budget
     for the period.  Actual interest was
     higher than budgeted as there has been a rise in interest rates. 
- Reimbursements of $1,944,210 or 92.2% of the
     budget.  This is based on actual
     spending and collection of reimbursement project funds. This is due to
     projects being deferred and continued to next quarter.  Additionally, $1.5 million of
     reimbursement from M1W related to PWM project is included in this line.
- Grant revenue of $333,785, or 12.8% of the
     budget.  This is due to grant funded
     projects being deferred and continued to next quarter.  
- The Other revenue category totaled $14,331 or about 127.4%
     of the budgeted amount.  This
     category includes insurance refunds, miscellaneous reimbursements, and
     other miscellaneous services.  Actual collections were higher than
     anticipated.
- The Reserves category totaled $0 or about 0.00% of
     the budgeted amount.  This category
     includes potential use of reserves and the water supply carry forward
     balance during the fiscal year for which adjustments will be made at the
     conclusion of the fiscal year.
 
EXPENDITURES
 
Expenditure
activity as depicted on the expenditure table is similar to
patterns seen in past fiscal years. 
Total expenditures of $16,859,412 were about 68.8% of the budgeted
amount of $24,521,550 for the period.  Variances
within the individual expenditure categories are described below:
 
 - Personnel costs of $3,193,077 were about 94.9% of the
     budget. This was slightly lower than the anticipated budget.
- Expenditures for supplies and services were $1,148,433,
     or about 88.0% of the budgeted amount. This was lower than the anticipated
     budget due to legal and consulting services being lower than anticipated
     for the current quarter.
- Fixed assets purchases of $325,826
     represented around 96.5% of the budgeted amount. This was due to some of
     the fixed asset purchases deferred to next quarter.
- Funds spent for project expenditures were $12,143,067,
     or approximately 67.2% of the amount budgeted for the period.  This is lower than budgeted due to some
     of the project spending being deferred to next quarter. This line also
     includes water purchased from Monterey One Water.
- Debt Service included costs of $49,009, or 9.0% of
     the budget for the period.  Debt
     service is paid semi-annually, in December and June.  
- Contingencies/Other expenditures $0, or 0% of the
     budgeted amount.  This was due to
     the contingency budget not spent during this quarter.
- Reserve expenditures of $0, or 0% of the budgeted
     amount.  This was due to the adjustments
     made at the conclusion of the fiscal year.
