Utility Fund

           The  Utility  Fund,  which   includes   both   the   operating   and   capital   funds,  is  a  proprietary   enterprise  fund  solely  dedicated   to
           managing  the  {nancial  activities  related  to  water  and  wastewater  ser vices  in  the  City  of  Colleyville.  The  City  is  responsible
           for maintaining the infrastructure for water distribution and wastewater collection. 

           Water   is   purchased   from   the   Trinity   River   Authority   (TRA)   and   then   sold   to   customers   at   cost .   Similarly,   wastewater   is
           collected   and  returned   to  TRA  for   processing,   also   at   cost .   To   cover  the  operating   expenses   of   the  water  and   wastewater
           systems,  the  City  charges  a  base  rate  to  customers.  The  costs  associated  with  actual  water  and  wastewater  usage  are  then
           passed through to customers at the same rate the City pays to TRA . 

           This   fund   is   considered   a   major   fund,   as   its   revenues   and   expenditures   account   for   more   than   10%   of   the   City's
           appropriated budget , ensuring the ef{cient and sustainable operation of essential utility ser vices.
