Review December 2014 Financial Statements and Investment Reports Ms. Vassallo noted that she included a six -month summary with the report, and staff anticipates the revenues for the Sewer Service Charge will come in on budget. She noted that the revenues in the Sewer Construction Fund are high because of the $1 million East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) grant that was received and the revenue from new developments in Walnut Creek. There are currently favorable expenditure variances in Operations and Maintenance but the variance is expected to be much lower by the end of the fiscal year since more expenses are incurred in the Spring and during dry weather season.
