<br /> Sewer Operations and Maintenance (0 & M) and Debt Funds. As shown in Table 8
<br /> below, the Sewer Operating Fund ended FY 2021/22 with an operating fund balance of
<br /> approximately $9.2 million, which is $2.6 million more than the amount included in the
<br /> amended budget. This $9.2 million fund balance equals 54.3 percent of the Sewer
<br /> Fund's FY 2022/23 operating expenses. The operating reserve policy adopted by City
<br /> Council in November 2016 requires reserves equal to between 30 percent and 40
<br /> percent of operating expenses with a target of 35 percent. Thus, operating reserves
<br /> exceed the maximum required reserve level. Staff will bring forward recommended
<br /> adjustments to City Council as part of the FY 2022/23 midyear budget review process.
<br /> Sewer revenues were approximately $0.5 million or 3.5 percent higher than an estimate
<br /> included in the amended budget, due to higher than anticipated utilization of the sewer
<br /> services for the year. On the expenditure side, sewer treatment fees charged by Dublin
<br /> San Ramon Service District (DSRSD) exceeded the amended budget by approximately
<br /> $0.7 million due to higher than estimated utilization of sewer treatment services, and
<br /> repair and maintenance costs exceeded the amended budget by approximately $0.3
<br /> million. These increases were offset by savings in other categories, including $1.5
<br /> million less expenditures for Repair and Replacement activities, $0.8 million savings in
<br /> professional contract services, and $0.2 million in miscellaneous other net savings.
