<br />SEWER RATE STUDY I City of Santa Ana, CA
<br />The Sewer Enterprise's CIP includes recommendations for expenditures totaling $18.4 million over the
<br />next 5 years. As part of the financial plan analyses, an annual inflation allowance of 3 percent was
<br />included in the above capital improvement project costs.
<br />Capital Fund Financing
<br />A proposed financing plan for the Sewer Enterprise's CIP is shown in Table 9 and Table 10. Table 9
<br />summarizes the plan in the event that the City elects to forego revenue adjustments and cash finance all
<br />activities (Status Quo Scenario). Table 10 is the proposed financing under the assumption that the City
<br />will elect to propose revenue adjustments (Scenario 1). Financing for the CIP is anticipated to come from
<br />a combination of funds on hand, transfers from water sales revenues derived from rates, grants, and
<br />bond proceeds. The Sewer Enterprise currently maintains a capital fund that is used to finance CIP
<br />projects as well as to separate the commingling of rate and connection funds. The capital fund generates
<br />revenue from developer connection fees, transfers and debt proceeds (as appropriate). With new
<br />development in the City slowing dramatically, the Sewer Enterprise will depend on rate revenue and
<br />bond proceeds (as necessary) to execute planned CIP projects.
