<br />General Fund Overall Fund Condition
<br />
<br />The projected end-of-year working capital balance for the General Fund is $5,218,450 which is
<br />approximately 23.8%, or 87 days of budgeted expenditures. The General Fund is just below the targeted
<br />wOrking capital balance of 90 to 120 days as outlined in the City's Financial Management Policies.
<br />
<br />Utility Fund Revenues
<br />
<br />The Utility Fund revenues for fiscal year 1997-98 are currently estimated at $5,872,020, which is $75,300,
<br />or 1.30%, greater than our original budget projection. The revenues, by revenue category, for the current
<br />fiscal year are shown below:
<br />
<br /> Original Projection Current Estimate
<br />Category 1997-98 1997-98 Variance Percent
<br />Charges for Services 6,000 4,400 -1,600 -26.67%
<br />Water 2,991,500 3,016,002 24,502 .82%
<br />Sewer 2,654,000 2,701,518 47,518 1.79%
<br />Miscellaneous 200 100 -100 -50.0%

<br />Total Revenue 5,796,700 5,872,020 75,300 1.30%
<br />
<br />Water and sewer revenues are dependent on seasonal factors such as rainfall. Rainfall varies between "dry"
<br />years (about 40 inches or rain) and "wet" years (in excess of 70 inches of rain). Fiscal year 97-98 proved
<br />to be a dry year for the City, which proved our conservative estimate accurate.
<br />
<br />The revenues for the new fiscal year are projected at $5,859,183, which is $62,483, or 1.08%, greater than
<br />they were in the current year. The revenues, by revenue category, for the new fiscal year are shown below:
