Overhead Calculation and the use of Bond Interest Expense Currently, the District does not include debt service payments in the administrative overhead calculation. The debt was incurred to finance capital projects over and above our usual annual spending. The principal portion of the debt service was spent on the projects early on, and now is carried as a liability on the balance sheet that is reduced each year. The borrowings were not used to help defray the cost of operations and maintenance, therefore the interest expense associated with the borrowing is usually not a part of administrative overhead. To confirm this, six other agencies were surveyed to understand their overhead calculations. None of the agencies include debt service in their overhead calculation. Staff is reviewing the feasibility of including the interest expense in the District's fees and charges with the goal of capturing those costs. This issue will be brought back to the Finance Committee at a future meeting. 3.'b.
