Revenue estimates for Wastewater Impact Fees have been updated with the 5‐year average collection amount, detailed on the following page. Revenues have grown on average by 4.62% per year, over the past 5 years. For the CIP, we have used the 5‐year Average collection, plus 3% growth each year from FY21 to FY25. $1,052,000.00 $1,232,889.00 $1,121,780.00 $1,810,489.00 $1,109,180.00 $1,294,476.00 $1,313,762.80 $‐ $200,000.00 $400,000.00 $600,000.00 $800,000.00 $1,000,000.00 $1,200,000.00 $1,400,000.00 $1,600,000.00 $1,800,000.00 $2,000,000.002015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 Average FY16‐20Wastewater Impact Fee Revenues CAPITAL PLAN SUMMARY The next major project for the plan is WWIF 20 the North Frontage Road interceptor scheduled in FY26, which will replace the road’s interceptor between Springhill RD and Bridger Dr. Portions of the current interceptor are at or very near capacity. This project will directly increase collection capacity in the southeast and east part of town. WWIF44 the Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) Interceptor with construction done in FY24 and will expand capacity upgrading from a thirty‐inch outfall to a 48‐inch main. Scheduled in FY24 is WWIF45 Biotrain #1 Retro Fit that will increase nutrient (total nitrogen and total phosphorous) removal treatment capacity of the WRF. The retrofit will modify the reactor basin into a 5‐stage bardenpho reactor similar to existing Biotrains 2 & 3. The retrofit helps the WRF maintain its current nutrient effluent performance as the city continues to grow. In other words, as our wastewater load increases with growth, we need additional bioreactor capacity to maintain current nutrient effluent performance. The projects highlighted above aid in our efforts towards the Strategic Plan 4.3 b Increase Capacity of Sewer Pipes to Accommodate Development Projects. A significant amount of borrowing has been incurred for the Davis Lane Lift Station, Norton East Ranch Interception and the Front Street Interceptor. Due to the uncertainty of the revenue stream, the Wastewater Utility will need to borrow via revenue bonds and be reimbursed by the Wastewater Impact Fee Fund. There may be rate‐requirements to support this borrowing, which were included in the most recent Wastewater Rate Study.
