MVSD operates under a fiscal year budget cycle beginning July 1 and ending June 30. The District’s financial planning covers three areas: Operations & Maintenance (O&M), Facilities Rehabilitation, and Capital Improvements.  The O&M consist of salaries and benefits, general office expenses, equipment and supplies, repair and maintenance, contractual and professional services, utilities and debt service.  Revenues include Sewer Service Charges, Ad Valorem Property Taxes, revenues from leases (Cellular Telephone Sites and Billboards), Development related fees (Plan Review, Inspection, Capacity, and Connection fees), and miscellaneous other fees and charges for services provided by the District.  The District’s Budget is balanced and consistent in our commitment to provide for the long-term continued provision of services to the District’s ratepayers.

The Fiscal Year 2022-2023 Annual Budget appropriates funds for anticipated expenditures of $12 million for all District funds with total revenue projections of $9.8 million with Fiscal Year-end June 30, 2023.

The FY22-23 O&M budget projects revenues of $9.4 million and expenditures of $7 million and reflect a decrease in expenditures from the prior year.  Sewer Service Charges and other miscellaneous charges and fees fully support operations and maintenance expenditures.

The FY22-23 Facilities Rehabilitation Fund budget projects marginal revenue with planned expenditures of $5,000. Ad Valorem Tax revenues are projected to come in at $437,132 and will be transferred from Fund 3409.

The Capital Outlay Fund is intended to fund infrastructure needs for the District and to fund existing and future capacity needs within the District’s collection, treatment and disposal systems. The District’s FY22-23 Capital Outlay Fund budget projects revenues of $344,509 with proposed budget expenditures of approximately $4.3 million in capital improvements.

The District anticipates the transfer of $5,980,000 from the 2021 Installment Purchase Contract (2021 IPC) which is necessary to fund the planned capital projects.

The District’s FY22-23 Sewer Service Charge is $814.20 for Residential units per household per year; Multi-Residential units (Apartments and Mobile Homes) is $652.20 per year.  Other approved charges and fees can be found on the District Code page under Chapter 7: Fees, Rates and Charges.
