The expenditures for the Drainage Fund are split between operational expenses and transfers to the capital side, with a
growing focus on building up reser ves for large capital projects. For FY 2026 , the major changes in expenditures re|ect
similar trends seen in the General and Utility Funds, including personnel cost adjustments, rising utility costs, and
increased transfers to fund capital improvements.

Personnel Ser vices:
Personnel costs in the Drainage Fund have increased due to the 3.5% merit-based pay adjustment and rising health and
dental insurance premiums, consistent with other funds. Staf{ng levels remain unchanged, with employees dedicated to
maintaining and improving the drainage system.

Contrac tual Ser vices:
Though less prominent in the Drainage Fund compared to other funds, contractual ser vices have seen some general
in|ation- driven increases. These ser vices suppor t maintenance and smaller drainage projects as needed.

Supplies:
Rising utility costs, driven by in|ation, have also impacted the Drainage Fund. These increases are primarily related to the
energy and materials required to maintain the City ’s drainage infrastructure. In|ationary pressures have affected the
overall cost of supplies needed for system upkeep and smaller projects.

Capital Transfers:
More than half of the Drainage Fund’s expenditures are allocated toward transfers to the capital side of the fund. These
transfers have been intentionally increased as par t of the City ’s long- term strategy to build suf{cient reser ves for large -
scale capital improvements. These funds will be used to address the City ’s aging drainage infrastructure and to tackle
signi{cant capital projects in line with the multi-year drainage plan.

While capital projects are the primary focus of the Drainage Fund, the operating side continues to suppor t day- to - day
maintenance and smaller-scale improvements to ensure the system remains reliable.
