The Water Revenue Bonds of 1999B and 1996B have future debt service requirements totaling
<br />$461,909 and $2,876,636 (principal and interest). The City annually transfers amounts from the Area
<br />and Unit Charge Fund to the Water Fund sufficient to help cover the debt services of these bonds.
<br />During 2004, a transfer of $303,108 was made to the Water Fund.
<br />It is the City's intention to repay the Water Revenue Bonds of 1999B and 1996B with revenues of the
<br />Water Fund. If revenues are not sufficient to meet the debt requirements, funds will be transferred from
<br />the Area and Unit Charge Fund.
<br />DEBT SERVICE FUNDS
<br />Debt service funds are a type of governmental fund used to account for the accumulation of resources
<br />for the payment of principal and interest on general obligation debt (other than enterprise fund debt).
<br />Debt service funds may have one or a combination of revenue sources pledged to retire debt including
<br />property taxes, tax increments, special assessments and area and unit charges.
<br />The diverse nature of the type of debt included in the same fund type requires careful analysis to
<br />determine the adequacy of the fund balance and projected fund balance. The following schedule
<br />extracts information from Exhibits 1, 2 and 3 of the 2004 Annual Financial Report to assist in this
<br />analysis. The following schedule compares outstanding debt with assets pledged for debt retirement.
<br />This comparison provides a means to judge (at least on a preliminary basis) the financial position of
<br />each individual debt service fund.

<br />Note: Deferred revenue in the above table does not include the future scheduled "interest portion" of
<br />the adopted assessment rolls. The 1999A and 2004A Improvement Bonds also include a pledge from
<br />the Area and Unit Fund that has not been included above.
<br />The above table provides a means for the monitoring the status of the debt service funds. For the
<br />General Debt funded solely by property taxes, it appears that there are adequate planned levies to
<br />retire the debt when the future lease revenues scheduled to be received from the school district are
<br />included.
