BACKGROUND/JUSTIFICATION:
The proposed FY 2021 BCRUA Annual Operating Budget,including Capital Outlay,is increasing by
$504,107, which is a 20% increase. The total budget,including Operations,Capital Outlay, Reserve
Adjustment and Debt Service contains a 4.3% increase,from$15,144,864 to$15,799,201. Budget
changes are summarized as follows:
Budget Category FY 2020 FY2021 Change
Operations $ 2,493,484 $ 2,947,590 $454,106
Capital Outlay $ 38,000 $ 88,000 $ 50,000
Reserve Adjustment $ 32,503 $ 126,025 $ 93,522

TOTAL $15,144,864 $ 15,799,201 $654,338
The increase in Operations is primarily driven by the increase in projected water production from 6.0
million gallons per day(mgd)to 9.5 mgd. The cost of electricity and chemicals associated with this
increase in flow comprise 86 percent of the operations cost difference.The$50,000 increase in Capital
Outlay is associated with a proposed upgrade to BCRUA'sfinancial management software.
BCRUA staff and the Operations Committee(OC)have reviewed this proposed budget and recommend
Board approval.
