SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The Monterey County Water Resources Agency's FY 2020-21 approved budget estimated $28.3 million in total revenue. As of the second quarter of FY, actual revenue received totaled $12.9 million, which included $9.2 million in assessment revenue, $1.5 million in Ad Valorem taxes, $406 thousands in hydroelectric revenue, and around $700 thousands in Water Delivery fees. After receiving revenues in December 2020, the Agency had received around 60% in assessment and ad velorem taxes.
On the expenditure side, the Agency's FY 2020-21 approved budget estimated $34.4 million in total expenditures. As of the second quarter of FY, actual expenditures totaled $14.1 million, which is at 41% of the approved appropriations. Even though the percentage of YTD expenditure is higher than expected, it is normal as it included encumbrances. Comparing with last FY's expenditures in the same accounting period, it had an increase of $1.8 million mainly caused by the increase of contract fee with Monterey One Water and COWCAP cost.
