SUMMARY EXPLANATION WATER ITEMS - A review of the 1996 Water Budget indicates that
the 1996 year -end expenditures will exceed estimates by about $40,000 Two main factors beyond
the Division's direct control have led to this situation

Water Treatment Plant, by the Corp of Engineers This amount is equal to 20% of the total
estimated cost of $44,000 This cost was not a budgeted expense for 1996
• The second item is related to the expenses for professional legal service in defense of the
City's water rights for Domestic Water will total of $53,800 by years end This figure is
$33,800 more than was budgeted

S OUNCILACTION First reading of ordinance; second reading scheduled 8/20/96.
IRRIGATION ITEMS - A review of the 1996 Water Budget indicates that the 1996 year -end
expenditures will exceed estimates by approximately $25,480 Two main factors beyond the 4110
Division's direct control have led to this situation.
• First, the old, deteriorated wooden pipes which plague our systems, particularly the 308, has
had ongoing failures during the entire season, and in fact until this present date This has
resulted in over expenditures for operating supplies, repair and maintenance by contractors,
overtime and professional services for a total of $11,380 more than was budgeted for these
combined line items. However, unless considerable funds are devoted to capital improvement
of the system, currents cost overruns will continue to escalate as more and more of the City's
irrigation systems fail catastrophically
• As with the second item for the water budget, the expenses for professional legal service in
defense of the City's water rights for Irrigation will total about $29,100 by years end. This
figure is $14,100 more than was budgeted.
Overtime, Operating & Repair Supplies, and R &M Contractors 11,380
Professional Services 14.100
Total $25,480
