Overall expenses of the Water Fund are projected to decrease <br /> 4.15% in 1993 over 1992 budgeted expenses. <br /> This decrease is a result of several factors. Operations expenses will increase just <br /> 0.67% in 1993; Capital Outlay will decrease by 22.27%; Debt Service will decrease by <br /> 5.27%; and Maintenance will decrease by 45.45%. The commentary below will <br /> discuss these changes in detail. <br /> Operations consists of administration, utility billing and collections, and the <br /> pumping, treating, and distribution of water to the users of the utility. <br /> Personnel costs represent 45.55% of the operating costs of the water utility. As <br /> indicated in the chart below 4.41 full time equivalent positions are budgeted for <br /> 1993. This is an increase of 0.12 full time equivalent positions from 1992. <br /> Budgeting the Division Secretary at 40 hours per week (split with the Sewer Utility) <br /> for 1993 compared to 30 in 1992 accounts for the increase. Staff proposes this to <br /> further remove clerical duties from the maintenance workers and to allow them to <br /> concentrate their efforts on maintenance activities. <br />
