ISSUE: Board approval is requested to submit a Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report (CAFR) to the Government Finance Officers Association of United States and
Canada (GFOA) for review.
BACKGROUND: The GFOA is a professional association of state /provincial and local
finance officers in the United States and Canada, and has served the public finance
profession since 1906. The GFOA established the Certificate of Achievement for
Excellence in Financial Reporting Program in 1945 to encourage and assist state and
local governments to go beyond the minimum requirements of generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) and to prepare comprehensive annual financial reports
that provide transparency and full disclosure, and then recognize individual
governments that succeed in achieving that goal.
The District was awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting by the GFOA for the report submitted for the Fiscal Year 2013 -14. The
Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition for excellence in state and
local government financial reporting. In order to be awarded a Certificate of
Achievement, a government agency must publish an easily readable report in a
prescribed format report that complies with GAAP, Governmental Accounting Standards
Board (GASB) and GFOA program policy and requirements. The CAFR includes ten
years of District historical, financial, and statistical data. The CAFR provides a concise
document for internal management use, as well as external use with other agencies,
and is posted on the District's website for the general public. A Certificate of
Achievement is valid for a period of one year.
The Finance and Accounting Division has prepared the District's CAFR as of June 30,
2015. It is believed that the current CAFR continues to meet the Certificate of
Achievement Program requirements and staff is asking for Board approval to submit it
to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.

November 13, 2015
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Customers and
The Honorable Board of Directors,
Martinez, California:
State law requires that every general - purpose local government publish within six
months of the close of each fiscal year a complete set of audited financial statements.
This report is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2015.
Management of Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (the District) assumes full
responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information in these financial
statements, based upon a comprehensive system of internal controls that is established
for this purpose. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated
benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the
financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Maze & Associates has issued an unqualified ( "clean ") opinion on the District's financial
statements for the year ended June 30, 2015. The independent auditor's report is
located at the front of the financial section of this report.
Management's Discussion and Analysis report (MD &A) immediately follows the
independent auditor's report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and
analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD &A complements this letter of
transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.
PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT
History and Services Provided
The District was established in 1946 under the Sanitary District Act of 1923 and is
located about 30 miles east of San Francisco. The District builds, operates and
maintains the facilities required to collect and process wastewater for approximately
339,000 residents of Danville, Lafayette, Martinez, Moraga, Orinda, Pleasant Hill, San
Ramon, Walnut Creek and some of the unincorporated communities within Central
Contra Costa County. The District also treats wastewater for 137,400 residents of the
Cities of Concord and Clayton under a 1974 contract with the City of Concord.
® Recycled Paper
The District is committed to protecting the public health and preserving the environment
while minimizing facility and operating costs. The District has approximately 1,500
miles of sewer pipeline, ranging in size from 4 inches to 102 inches in diameter, and 19
sewage - pumping stations (three of which are privately owned) in the District's sewage
collection system. The District is the sole provider of wastewater service within the
District limits (see map of service area). Residents make up the largest segment of the
District's customer base representing approximately 83% of the Sewer Service Charge
revenue. The District's treatment capacity has grown from 4.5 million gallons per day
(mgd) initiated in 1948 to 53.8 mgd currently. Bonds, state grants, federal grants, and
pay -as- you -go resources of the District have financed expansions.
The District also provides an alternative source of water for irrigation by producing high
quality recycled water. Recycled water can safely be used on freeway landscaping,
street medians, golf courses, athletic fields, parks, playgrounds, schoolyards and multi-
family residential common areas. With the continued drought conditions in California,
the District opened a residential recycled water fill station with seven hoses to keep up
with demand from residents in the area.
In addition to its wastewater responsibility, the District also operates and maintains a
permanent Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Facility in partnership with
Mountain View Sanitary District and other local governments. The HHW Collection
Facility is located adjacent to the District's wastewater treatment plant and seeks to
keep pollutants out of the sewer system, making this facility an important part of our
Pollution Prevention Program. Completing its eighteenth year of operation, the HHW
currently serves over 30,000 residential and small business customers, from which over
2 million pounds of hazardous waste is collected and properly disposed of each year.
Organization, Accounting and Budgetary Controls
A five - member Board of Directors governs the District. Board members are elected on
a non - partisan basis and serve a four -year term. The Board appoints the General
Manager, who in accordance with policies established by the Board of Directors,
manages District affairs. The District employs 270 regular employees organized in four
departments led by Managers responsible for their budgets and expenses. The three
departments are: Administrative, Engineering, and Operations.
The District, by law, uses an enterprise fund to account for its operations and is run in a
manner similar to private industry. The District currently has one enterprise fund which
is comprised of four internal sub - funds:
■ Running Expense - accounts for the general operations of the District.
Substantially all operating revenues and expenses are accounted for in this fund
(also referred to as Operations & Maintenance or O &M).
• Sewer Construction - accounts for non - operating revenues that are to be used for
acquisition or construction of plant, property, and equipment (also referred to as the
Capital Fund).
m
• Self- Insurance - accounts for interest earnings on cash balances in this sub -fund
and cash allocations from other funds, as well as costs of insurance premiums and
claims not covered by the District's insurance policies.
• Debt Service — accounts for activity associated with the payment of the District's
long term bonds and loans.
Each year, the Board adopts the following four budgets: Operations and Maintenance,
Capital Improvement and Sewer Construction, Self- Insurance, and Debt - Service. The
Board Finance Committee reviews disbursements prior to each regular Board meeting,
and disbursements are then approved by the full Board. Monthly financial statements
are issued to management and the Board. A detailed mid -year and annual budget
analysis are prepared and presented to the Board. District management is accountable
for variances and adhering to budget constraints. The District also has several
documented financial policies that are reviewed and updated as appropriate.
ASSESSING THE DISTRICT'S ECONOMIC CONDITION
Local Economy and Outlook
Nationally, the forecast for gross domestic product is to trend towards modest growth,
slower than the historic average, as most large metropolitan areas have recovered from
the recession of 2008. Unemployment continues to decrease in California as more jobs
in the tech sector are being created. According to the Legislative Analyst's Office
(LAO), the state's revenues will be about $2 billion higher than estimated which will help
the state build reserves up to $4.2 billion. Maintaining a $4 billion reserve, however,
would allow little to no new spending commitments in the near future. The state's
priorities continue to be to pay off existing debts and to build up the rainy -day fund to
help minimize the effects of boom and bust cycles.
According to the UCLA Anderson forecast, while the U.S. job growth is led mostly by
increases in construction, automobiles, and business investments, as well as high
consumer demand, California's tech sector is the leading factor in the state's
employment growth. The tech sector has grown beyond Silicon Valley and into San
Francisco and San Mateo, which also led to strong increases in the real estate market
in the Bay Area. Low interest rates on mortgages continue to make real estate
development and home buying attractive to potential buyers.
Increased home values have led to growth and new connections in the service area
which continue to benefit the District. Concord and Walnut Creek continue to expand
their commercial and residential projects which have increased sewer service charges
and connections fees. The District and the bargaining units have agreed on a five -year
contract that will go to December 2017. The current labor contract progressively
eliminates employee retirement costs being paid for by the District. Payment of the
unfunded liability is a major concern for the District as it is for many public entities. An
additional payment for the unfunded actuarial accrued liability is included as part of the
financial plan for the District to alleviate future fiscal obligation of the unfunded liability.
The District has an excellent reputation in all areas of public service, which include
finance, collection, treatment, training, safety, technology, capital projects, construction
and customer service. The District has balanced revenue sources, adequate reserves,
and a moderate debt obligation. The District reviews its rate and other charges
annually. The District can increase its sewer service charge rates when needed to make
up revenue shortfalls by providing public notice to all customers, holding a Public
Hearing, and obtaining approval by the Board of Directors. The District is also able to
obtain bond financing, as needed, due to the District's AAA bond rating. The District
anticipates that it will continue to meet its mission and goals, continue to provide
excellent customer service and reasonable rates to its customers, and meet compliance
requirements given the current economic conditions.
Long -Term Financial Planning
District management analyzes and updates their strategic plan annually, with the four
main goals being: providing exceptional customer service, maintaining full regulatory
compliance, maintaining responsible rates, and continuing to be a high - performance
organization. Strategies to achieve each of the goals are developed, as well as metrics
to evaluate success. The District performs a 10 -year long -term cash flow forecast each
year shortly before the budget process begins. The main economic factors considered
in long -range forecasting are: the impact of state legislation and mandates, regulatory
compliance, Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requirements,
negotiated salary increases and employee benefits (including significant increases in
retirement and health care costs), energy costs and interpreting the energy market,
housing growth, and infrastructure renewal and replacement needs. The District has a
significant amount of unfunded actuarial liability for both pension and other post
employment costs (OPEB) and various options for managing these liabilities are
explored in the financial planning process.
Relevant Financial Policies
Investment Policy: The District's investment policies for District assets and GASB 45
Trust are reviewed and approved annually by the Board of Directors in accordance with
District investment policy. Section 53646 of the California Government Code governs
our investment practices, and is reviewed annually by staff, legal counsel and the
Board. No required changes were necessary. The Board receives monthly financial
statements that include District investment performance. Since 2008, the GASB 45
Trust investments are in a moderate investment strategy fund. The Board Finance
Committee reviews GASB 45 Trust quarterly financial statements to monitor the
District's investment strategy.
Maior Initiatives
The District's vision is to be a high - performance organization that provides exceptional
customer service and full regulatory compliance at responsible rates. Full regulatory
compliance is provided through exceptional operation of our collection system and
treatment facilities, as well as through continued investment in our infrastructure.
The District adopted a two year Strategic Business Plan for FY 14 -15 through FY 15-
16. The Strategic Business Plan establishes policy direction and identifies six goals with
key performance indicators that provide a roadmap for achieving increased
IV
effectiveness and efficiencies. Included in the Strategic Plan was the preparation of a
Wastewater Cost -of- Service Study and Staffing Needs Assessment. The purpose of
the Cost -of- Service Study was to independently assess and evaluate the District's
existing wastewater rates, to provide a fair and reasonable rate structure and to ensure
the proportionate recovery of costs from all customer classes. The Board adopted the
recommended rate structure and associated rates in June 2015. The purpose of the
Staffing Needs Assessment was to make sure that the District's staffing level was
optimal based on the level of service our customers expect, the size and complexity of
the collection and treatment system and our focus on remaining efficient and effective
in running our business. The conclusion of the study was that the District is staffed at
the right level.
In order to effectively manage assets to meet future state and federal regulatory
requirements, the District initiated an Asset Management Program and the preparation
of a Comprehensive Wastewater Master Plan to evaluate options for addressing future
regulatory requirements. The Master Plan will be completed in December 2016.
The District has received the Platinum award from the National Association of Clean
Water Agencies (NACWA) for 17 straight years in recognition of 100% compliance with
our National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. It has also
reduced the number of sanitary sewer overflows by more than 60% in the past 10 years
by improved sewer cleaning and a robust sewer rehabilitation program.
AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada
(GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to
the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District for its comprehensive annual financial report
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. This was the fifteenth consecutive year that the
District has achieved this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of
Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized
comprehensive annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally accepted
accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our
current comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the program's
requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for
another certificate.
This report could not have been accomplished without the dedication and commitment
provided by District staff. I would like to express my appreciation to the following
employees who assisted in its preparation:
■ The Finance and Accounting staff who compiled the information contained in this
document with a special thanks to Chris Thomas, Senior Accountant, and Jamie
King, Accountant.
v
• The Reproduction and Graphics Team who creatively and professionally prepared
this finished document.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Board of Directors
Central Contra Costa Sanitary District
Martinez, California
Report on Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (District) as of
and for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which
collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements as listed in the Table of Contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design,
implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are
free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,
the auditor considers internal control relevant to the District's preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such
opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audits evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, and the changes in financial position and
cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America.

Emphasis of a Matter
Management adopted the provisions of the following Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statements, which
became effective during the year ended June 30, 2015 and required the restatement of net position as discussed in
Note 9 to the financial statements:
Statement No. 68 — Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions
Statement No. 71— Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date
The emphasis of this matter does not constitute a modification to our opinion.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that Management's Discussion and
Analysis and Required Supplementary Information be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial
statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures
to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and
comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial
statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express
an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with
sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise
the District's basic financial statements as a whole. The Introductory Section, Supplemental Information and
Statistical Section, as listed in the Table of Contents are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not
required parts of the basic financial statements.
The Supplemental Information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the
underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional
procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other
records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional
procedures in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America. In our
opinion, the Supplemental Information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements as a whole.
The Introductory and Supplemental Sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit
of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section of the Central Contra Costa Sanitary District's annual financial report presents an analysis
of the District's financial performance during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015. This information is
presented in conjunction with the audited financial statements, which follow this report.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The District's 2014 -15 financial highlights are listed below. These results are discussed in more detail
later in the report.
• The District's total ending net position decreased by $80.7 million or - 12.53% in 2014 -15. This
is mainly due to the implementation of GASB 68 and GASB 71 which required the District to
record the Collective Net Pension Liability.
• Total revenues in 2014 -15 increased by $12.6 million or 14.04 %. The total Sewer Service
Charge (SSC) rate for the year was $439 which was an increase of 8.40% for fiscal year 2014-
15.
• Total 2014 -15 expenses increased by $4.4 million or 4.30 %. This is mainly due to higher cost
of total labor, depreciation, repairs and maintenance, and offset by a negative pension expense as
a result of the implementation of GASB 68 and 71.
• Capital Contributions decreased in 2014 -15 by $5.9 million or - 29.42 %. The decrease is
mainly due to a decrease in capital contributions from Concord and fewer new connections.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This annual report includes the Management's Discussion and Analysis report, the independent auditor's
report and the basic financial statements of the District. The financial statements also include notes that
explain information in the financial statements in more detail. This report also contains other
supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
REQUIRED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The District's financial statements report information utilizing methods similar to those used by private
sector companies. These statements offer short and long -term financial information about the District's
activities.
• Statement of Net Position — reports the District's current financial resources (short -term
spendable resources) with capital assets, deferred outflows of resources, long -term obligations,
and deferred inflows of resources.
• Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position — reports the District's
operating and non - operating revenues by major source along with operating and non - operating
expenses and capital contributions.
3
• Statement of Cash Flows - reports the District's cash flows from operating activities, non-
capital financing activities, capital and related financing activities, investing activities, and non-

The total net position of the District increased from $635.7 million in 2012 -13 to $644.3 million in
2013 -14 and decreased to $563.6 million in 2014 -15. The District's total assets have increased by $3.6
million or 0.52% compared to 2013 -14, and $8.7 million or 1.25% compared to 2012 -13. The total
liabilities increased $85.2 million or 152.88% compared to 2013 -14, and increased $81.6 million or
146.46% compared to 2012 -13. The decrease in net position over the three -year period totals $72.1
million or - 11.34% and is the result of the combination of net income, expenses, capital contributions,
and the implementation of GASB 68 and GASB 71 which required the District to record the Net Pension
Liability in 2014 -15.
By far the largest portion of the District's net position (101.70% percent) reflects its investment in
capital assets (e.g. land, buildings, machinery, equipment, intangible assets, and sewer line
infrastructure), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that are still outstanding. The District
uses these capital assets to provide services to its ratepayers; consequently, these assets are not available
for future spending. Although the District's investment in its capital assets is reported net of debt, it
should be noted that the funds needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the
capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. There is currently $4.3 million
restricted for debt service. The remaining balance of -$13.9 million in unrestricted net position
decreased by $85.4 million from 2013 -14 and $85.3 million from 2012 -13 due to the implementation of
GASB 68 and 71 which required the District to record its Collective Net Pension Liability.

Revenue
Total operating revenues increased from $69.1 million in 2012 -13 to $74.0 million in 2013 -14 and to
$84.5 million in 2014 -15. Operating revenues increased by $10.5 million or 14.21% compared to 2013-
14, and increased by $15.4 million or 22.34% comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
Total non - operating revenue increased from $15.5 million in 2012 -13 to $16.0 million in 2013 -14 and to
$18.1 million in 2014 -15. An increase compared to 2013 -14 by $2.1 million or 13.24 %, and increased
by $2.5 million or 16.33% comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
Total revenues increased from $84.6 million in 2012 -13 to $90.0 million in 2013 -14 to $102.6 million in
2014 -15. The change in total revenue resulted in an increase of $12.6 million or 14.04% comparing
2014 -15 to 2013 -14, and increased by $18.0 million or 21.24% comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13. There
was an 8.40% SSC rate increase in 2014 -15, 9.16% SSC rate increase in 2013 -14 and 8.80% increase in
SSC for 2012 -13. Property tax revenue increased by $1.0 million or 7.56% from 2014 -15 to 2013 -14,
and $1.1 million or 8.25% comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
Expenses
Total expenses increased from $90.5 million in 2012 -13 to $101.5 million in 2013 -14 and to $105.9
million in 2014 -15. In 2014 -15, total expenses increased by $4.4 million or 4.30% compared to 2013-
14. Comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13, total expenses were $15.3 million or 16.94% higher. Increases
were mainly due to higher labor and benefit costs along with technical services for temporary staff.
Labor costs increased due to the filling of vacant positions, cost -of- living adjustments, merit increases,
and additional payment of the unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL). Depreciation expense
increased due to new capital additions. Non - operating expense is mainly driven by debt service interest
expense.
Total income before capital contributions went from -$5.9 million in 2012 -13, to -$11.5 million in 2013-
14, and -$3.3 million in 2014 -15.
Total capital contributions in 2014 -15 were $14.2 million compared to $20.2 million in 2013 -14 and
$15.0 million in 2012 -13. This was mainly due to changes in customer contributions SSC due to annual
rate increase, a shift of the internal SSC revenue allocation, and volatility in connection fees due to the
fluctuation of the housing and construction markets. The total change in net position increased by $2.3
million or 26.92% when comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and increased $1.8 million or 20.21% when
comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.

The major reasons for the increase in capital assets, net of depreciation, of $1.1 million from 2013 -14 to
2014 -15 and $5.7 million from 2012 -13 to 2014 -15, are as follows:
• Treatment plant infrastructure renovations, upgrades, equipment, and improvements increased by
$17.1 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and $20.9 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
• Sewer pipe ongoing renovations, upgrades, expansion, pumping station improvements, and
contributed sewer lines increased by $14.8 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and $23.4
million comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
• Buildings increased by $0.2 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and $6.3 million comparing
2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
• All other asset categories, including construction in progress, decreased by $10.5 million
comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and decreased by $9.1 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13.
7
• Capital asset increases are offset by an increased subtraction of accumulated depreciation of
$20.5 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2013 -14 and $35.7 million comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13
due to increasing capital asset investment and its associated depreciation expense.
See Note 5 in the audited financial statements.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The total debt obligations for fiscal years 2014 -15, 2013 -14 and 2012 -13 totaled $36.5 million, $40.6
million, and $44.5 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2015, the District's outstanding debt totaled
$36.5 million, which is a decrease of $4.0 million or -9.94% over the debt balance of $40.6 million at
June 30, 2014. Debt decreased by $7.9 million or - 17.81% comparing 2014 -15 to 2012 -13. The 2009
certificates of participation and the 1999 State Water Resources Control Board Water Reclamation Loan
principal and related interest for both decrease annually due to the scheduled principal payments. The
District did not issue any new debt this fiscal year. The source of funds for repayment of debt issued for
expansion purposes is the state property taxes received. A comparison of the District's debt service for
the past three fiscal years is presented below:

ECONOMIC AND OTHER FACTORS
The Federal and State of California economies have experienced higher revenue projections and
spending increases as a result of the recovery from the 2008 recession. These higher revenue
projections result in a multibillion - dollar influx of new funds for schools and community colleges under
Proposition 98 minimum funding guarantee. The Governor's priorities are to continue to reduce the
retiree health liabilities and continue to build up reserves to minimize future boom and bust cycles.
Changes in the state budget have a significant impact on the District. Federal and State economic
challenges will continue into the future and will have a trickle -down effect on local government.
Items impacting the District are:
• Current Employee Memorandum of Understanding contracts end as of December 17, 2017.
• Current and future legislation impacting public employee pensions is in play, also calling for
higher employee contributions and lower pensions by eliminating spiking.
• Increased cost of employee benefits, mainly due to pension costs and healthcare.
• Housing market continues to show improvement which impacts the District's property tax
revenues, and development and user fees.
8
• Regulatory requirements becoming more stringent, causing the District to spend more on
compliance, both for operations and maintenance costs and capital projects. This may require
debt financing for large capital projects.
• Continued low interest rates negatively impact interest earnings for District temporary
investments as well as OPEB trust and pension plan assets.
• Increased demand for recycled water from District customers as a result of the mandatory water
restrictions due to the current severe drought conditions in the state.
In addition to making efforts to reduce spending and improve process efficiencies, the District has the
ability to raise the SSC to meet its long -term commitments. The District has a Standard and Poor's
AAA rating, and can obtain bond financing if necessary.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended 30, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 1— DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District (District), a special district and a public entity
established under the Sanitary District Act of 1923, provides sewer service for the incorporated
and unincorporated areas under its jurisdiction. A Board of Directors comprised of five elected
members governs the District.
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these
basic financial statements present the financial statements of Central Contra Costa Sanitary
District and its component unit. The component unit discussed in the following paragraph is
blended in the District's reporting entity because of the significance of its operational and
financial relationship with the District.
Blended Component Unit - Component units are legally separate organizations for which the
District is financially accountable. Component units may also include organizations that are
fiscally dependent on the District, in that the District approves their budget, the issuance of their
debt or the levying of their taxes. In addition, component units are other legally separate
organizations for which the District is not financially accountable but the nature and significance
of the organization's relationship with the District is such that exclusion would cause the District's
financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. For financial reporting purposes, the
component unit discussed below is reported in the District's financial statements because of the
significance of its relationship with the District. The component unit, although a legally separate
entity, is reported in the financial statements using the blended presentation method as if it were
part of the District's operations because the Governing Board of the component unit is the same
as of Governing Board of the District and because its purpose is to finance facilities to be used for
the direct benefit of the District. The Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Facilities Financing
Authority (Authority) was organized solely for the purpose of providing financial assistance to the
District. The Authority does this by acquiring, constructing, improving and financing various
facilities, land and equipment purchases, and by leasing or selling certain facilities, land and
equipment for the use, benefit and enjoyment of the public served by the District. The Authority
has no employees and the Board of Directors of the Authority consists of the same persons who
are serving as the Board of Directors of the District. There are no separate basic financial
statements prepared for the Authority.
B. Basis of Accounting
The District's financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The District
applies all applicable Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements for
certain accounting and financial reporting guidance.

CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended 30, 2015 AND 2014
NOTE 1— DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES (Continued)
The District is a proprietary entity; it uses an enterprise fund format to report its activities for
financial statement purposes. Enterprise funds are used to account for operations that are
financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent of the
governing body is that the cost and expenses, including depreciation, of providing goods or
services to its customers be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or where the
governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expense incurred,
and net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control,
accountability, or other purposes.
Enterprise funds are used to account for activities similar to those in the private sector, where the
proper matching of revenues and costs is important and the full accrual basis of accounting is
required. With this measurement focus, all assets and liabilities of the enterprise are recorded on
its statement of net position, all revenues are recognized when earned and all expenses, including
depreciation, are recognized when incurred.
Enterprise funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non - operating items.
Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and
delivering goods in connection with an enterprise fund's principal ongoing operations. The
principal operating revenues of the District are charges to customers for services. Operating
expenses for the District include the costs of sales and services, administrative expenses, and
depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported
as non - operating revenues and expenses.
For internal operating purposes, the District's Board of Directors has established four separate
sub - funds, each of which includes a separate self - balancing set of accounts and a separate Board
approved budget for revenues and expenses. These sub -funds are combined into the single
enterprise fund presented in the accompanying financial statements. The nature and purpose of
these sub -funds are as follows:
Running Expense - Running Expense accounts for the general operations of the District.
Substantially all operating revenues and expenses are accounted for in this sub -fund.
Sewer Construction - Sewer Construction accounts for non - operating revenues, which are
to be used for acquisition or construction of plant, property and equipment.
Self - Insurance - Self- Insurance accounts for interest earnings on cash balances in this
sub -fund and cash allocations from other sub - funds, as well as for costs of insurance
premiums and claims not covered by the District's insurance coverage.
Debt Service - Debt Service accounts for activity associated with the payment of the
District's long term bonds and loans.
That portion of the District's net position which is allocable to each of these sub -funds has been
shown separately in the accompanying supplementary information to the financial statements.
The District's Board of Directors adopts annual budgets on a basis consistent with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

C. Investments
Investments held at June 30, 2015 and 2014 with original maturities greater than one year, are
stated at fair value. Fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices at year -end. All
investments not required to be reported at fair value are stated at cost or amortized cost.
D. Prepaid Expenses
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are
recorded as prepaid items in the financial statements.
E. Bank Escrow Deposit
An escrow agreement was formed between the District and the National Park Service for the
right -of -way through the John Muir National Historic Site, in lieu of issuing a performance bond.
The current right -of -way permit is 10 years, but is renewable and must remain in effect so long as
there is sewage running through the area; therefore, it is unlikely that the escrow funds will ever
be released to the District. These funds are listed as restricted cash in the financial statements.
F. Parts and Supplies
Parts and supplies are valued at average cost and are used primarily for internal purposes.
G. Property, Plant, and Equipment
Purchased capital assets are stated at historical cost. Capital assets contributed to the District are
stated at estimated fair value at the time of contribution. The capitalization threshold for capital
assets is $5,000. Expenditures which materially increase the value or life of capital assets are
capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful life of the asset.
Depreciation of exhaustible capital assets has been provided using the straight -line method over
the asset's useful life as follows:

H. Property Taxes
Property tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which the tax is levied. The County of
Contra Costa levies, bills and collects property taxes for the District; all material amounts are
collected by June 30.
General County taxes collected are the same as the amount levied since the County participates in
California's alternative method of apportionment called the Teeter Plan. The Teeter Plan as
provided in Section 4701 at seq. of the State of Revenue and Taxation Code establishes a
mechanism for the County to advance the full amount of property tax and other levies to taxing
agencies based on the tax levy, rather than on the basis of actual tax collections. Although this
system is a simpler method to administer, the County assumes the risk of delinquencies. The
County in return retains the penalties and accrued interest thereon.
Secured property tax bills are mailed once a year, during the month of October on the current
secured tax roll, to the owner of the property as of the lien date (January 1). Payments can be
made in two installments, and are due on November 1 and February 1. Delinquent accounts are
assessed a penalty of 10 percent. Accounts which remain unpaid on June 30 are charged an
additional 1 %2 percent per month. Unsecured property tax is due on July 1 and becomes
delinquent on August 31. The penalty percentage rates are the same as secured property tax.
I. Compensated Absences
The liability for vested vacation, compensatory time, and sick pay is recorded as an expense when
earned. District employees have a vested interest in 100 percent of accrued vacation time and 85
percent of accrued sick time for employees hired before May 1, 1985. Employees hired after May
1, 1985 have a vested interest in up to 40 percent of their sick time, based upon length of
employment with the District.
The changes in compensated absences were as follows for fiscal years ended June 30:
The current portion of the liability to be used within the next year is estimated by management to
be approximately 10% of the ending balance.

POLICIES (Continued)
J. Statement of Cash Flows
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, all highly liquid investments, including restricted
assets, with maturities of three months or less when purchased, are considered to be cash
equivalents. Included therein are petty cash, bank accounts, and the State of California Local
Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). Restricted assets are debt service amounts maintained by
fiduciaries and not available for general expenses.
K. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
L. Implementation of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Pronouncements
GASB Statement No. 68 – In June 2012, the GASB issued Statement No. 68, Accounting and
Financial Reporting for Pensions —an amendment of GASB Statement No. 27. The requirements
of this Statement will improve the decision - usefulness of information in employer and
governmental nonemployer contributing entity financial reports and will enhance its value for
assessing accountability and interperiod equity by requiring recognition of the entire net pension
liability and a more comprehensive measure of pension expense. The provisions of this
Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2014,
therefore, the District implemented this Statement in fiscal year ending June 30, 2015, which
required a restatement to the District's financial statements. The financial statements for fiscal
year ended June 30, 2014 could not be restated as the information required to do so was not
readily available. See Note 9 for additional information.
GASB Statement No. 69 – In 2014, the GASB issued Statement No. 69, Government
Combinations and Disposals of Government Operation. This Statement requires disclosures to be
made about government combinations and disposals of government operations to enable financial
statement users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of those transactions. The provisions
of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after December 15,
2013, therefore, the District will implement this Statement in fiscal year ending June 30, 2015.
This Statement did not have any impact on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 70 – In 2013, the GASB issued Statement No. 70, Accounting and
Financial Reporting for Nonexchange Finance Guarantees. This Statement requires a
government that extends a nonexchange financial guarantee to recognize a liability when
qualitative factors and historical data, if any, indicate that it is more than likely than not the
government will be required to make a payment on that guarantee. The provisions of this
Statement are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2013, therefore, the District
implemented this statement for fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, and had no impact on the
financial statements.

POLICIES (Continued)
GASB Statement No. 71 – In 2014, the GASB issued Statement No. 71, Pension Transition for
Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date —an amendment of GASB Statement
No. 68. The requirements of this Statement will eliminate the source of a potential significant
understatement of restated beginning net position and expense in the first year of implementation
of Statement 68 in the accrual -basis financial statements of employers and non - employer
contributing entities. This benefit will be achieved without the imposition of significant additional
costs. The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning
after June 15, 2014, therefore, the District implemented this Statement in fiscal year ending June
30, 2015, along with GASB 68 as discussed above.
GASB Statement No. 72 – In 2015, the GASB issued Statement No. 72, Fair Value
Measurement and Application. This Statement addresses accounting and financial reporting
issues related to fair value measurements. The Statement provides guidance for determining a
fair value measurement for financial reporting purposes. This Statement also provides guidance
for applying fair value to certain investments and disclosures related to all fair value
measurements. The requirements of this Statement are effective for financial statements for
period beginning after June 15, 2015, therefore, the District will implement this Statement in
fiscal year ending June 3 0, 2016.

(1) Prime quality; limited to corporations with assets over $500,000,000
(2) Prior approval of the Board of Directors must be obtained to acquire maturities beyond one year, excluding Treasury

D. Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value
of an investment; generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of
its fair value to changes in market interest rates. It is the District's policy to manage exposure to
interest rate risk by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by
timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to
maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.
District policy is that investment maturities do not exceed one year, with the exception of Treasury
Notes or Local Agency Investment Fund; however, investments can be held longer with Board
approval.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the District's investments to market interest
rate fluctuation is provided by the following schedule that shows the distribution of the District's

F. Concentration of Credit Risk
The District is a voluntary participant in LAIF which is regulated by the California Government
Code under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. LAIF is not registered with
the Securities and Exchange Commission. The fair value of the District's investment in this pool
is reported in the accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the District's pro -
rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the
amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting
records maintained by LAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis. At June 30, 2015
and 2014, these investments matured in an average of 191 and 232 days, respectively.
Investments in County Treasury — The District is considered to be a voluntary participant in an
external investment pool. The fair value of the District's investment in the pool is reported in the
financial statements in cash and cash equivalents at amounts based upon the District's pro -rata
share of the fair value provided by the County Treasurer for the entire portfolio (in relation to
amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting
records maintained by the County Treasurer, which is recorded on the amortized cost basis.
G. Custodial Credit Risk - Investments
Custodial risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g.
the broker - dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its
investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California
Government Code does not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to
custodial credit risk. The District's policy is to use the services of the Treasurer's Office of the
County of Contra Costa, which will transact the District's investment decisions in compliance
with the requirements of the District's policy. The County Treasurer's Office will execute the
District's investments through such broker - dealers and financial institutions as are approved by
the County Treasurer, and through the State Treasurer's Office for investment in the Local
Agency Investment Fund.

C. 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation
On November 12, 2009 and December 3, 2009 the District issued two Certificates of Participation
(COP).
The 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series A and Series B were issued
for $19,635,000 and $34,490,000, respectively. The Series A COP are federally taxable "Build
America Bonds" which have a direct 35% interest rate subsidy from the Federal Government.
Yields on this series range from 3.45% to 3.78 %, net of the subsidy. The Series B COP are tax
exempt bonds that were used to refund the 1998 and 2002 bond issues and raise an additional $30
million in new proceeds with yields ranging from .40% to 3.79 %.
The two bonds total $54,125,000, and are secured by a pledge of tax and net revenues of the
wastewater system. Principal payments began annually on September 1, 2010 with semi - annual
payments due on September 1 and March 1 of each year. Both bonds will be fully amortized as of
September 1, 2029. The refunded portion of the original bonds will be paid off based on the
original amortization schedule.

The District is exposed to various risks of loss including torts, theft of, damage to, and
destruction of assets, errors and omissions, injuries to employees, and natural disasters. To
manage these risks, the District joined with other entities to form the California Sanitation Risk
Management Authority ( CSRMA), a public entity risk pool currently operating as a common risk
management and insurance program for the member entities. The purpose of CSRMA is to
spread the adverse effects of losses among the member entities and to purchase excess insurance
as a group, thereby reducing its cost. Through CSRMA, the District purchases property
insurance and workers' compensation insurance.

B. Provision for Uninsured Claims
The Governmental Accounting Standard Board (GASB) requires state and local governments to
record their liability for uninsured claims in their financial statements.
The District's uninsured claims activity and exposure relates primarily to its general and
automobile liability program. The District records its estimated liability for uninsured claims in
this area based on the results of periodic actuarial evaluations. The actuarial evaluations are
typically performed every two years. For intervening years, the liability for uninsured claims is
reviewed for adequacy based on claims activity during the intervening period.
For fiscal years ended June 30, 2015, 2014, and 2013, settlements have not exceeded insurance
coverage. Changes in the District's estimated liability for retained losses are summarized as
follows as of June 30:

NOTE 8 — AGREEMENT WITH THE CITY OF CONCORD
In 1974, the District and the City of Concord (the City) entered into a cost - sharing agreement
under which the District became responsible for providing sewage treatment facilities and
services to the City. Under this agreement, the City pays a service charge for its share of
operating, maintenance and administrative costs and makes a contribution for its share of
facilities and makes a contribution for its share of facilities capital costs expended. Service
charges and contributions to capital costs from the City totaled $12,892,945 and $2,897,491,
respectively, for the year ended June 30, 2015, for a total of $15,790,436. Service charges and

A. Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association Pension Plan
Plan Descriptions — Substantially all District permanent employees are required to participate in
the Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association ( CCCERA), a cost - sharing multiple
employer public defined benefit retirement plan (Plan), governed by the County Employee's
Retirement Law of 193 7, as amended, and the California Public Employees' Pension Reform Act
of 2013 (PEPRA). The latest available actuarial and financial information for the Plan is for the
year ended December 31, 2014. CCCERA issues a publicly available financial report that
includes financial statements and supplemental information of the Plan. That report is available
by writing to Contra Costa County Employees' Retirement Association, 1355 Willow Way, Suite
221, Concord, CA 94520 -5728 or by calling (925) 521 -3960.
Benefits Provided — The Plan provides for retirement, disability, and death and survivor benefits.
Annual cost of living (COL) adjustments to retirement allowances can be granted by the
Retirement Board as provided by State statutes. Retirement benefits are based on age, length of
service, date of membership and final average salary.
Subject to vested status, employees can withdraw contributions plus interests credited, or leave
them as a deferred retirement when they terminate, or transfer to a reciprocal retirement system.
The Plans' provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2015, are summarized as follows:

Contributions — The Plan requires employees to pay a portion of the basic retirement benefit and
a portion of future COL costs. However, the District has paid the majority of the employees'
basic contributions in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU). Employees
must pay the COL portion of the employee rate. For the year ended June 30, 2015, the
contributions recognized as part of pension expense for the Plan were $20,795,609.

The District's net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the proportionate share of the net
pension liability. The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of December 31, 2014, and
the total pension liability for the Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by
an actuarial valuation as of December 31, 2013 rolled forward to December 31, 2014 using
standard update procedures. The District's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a
projection of the District's long -term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the
projected contributions of all participating employers, actuarially determined. The District's
proportionate share of the net pension liability for the Plan as of December 31, 2013 and 2014

NOTE 9 — PENSION PLANS (Continued)
Discount Rate — The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25% for the
Plan. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed plan member
contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that employer contributions will be
made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. For this purpose, only
employee and employer contributions that are intended to fund benefits for current plan members
and their beneficiaries are included. Projected employer contributions that are intended to fund
the service costs for future plan members and their beneficiaries, as well as projected
contributions from future plan members, are not included. Based on those assumptions, the
pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future
benefit payments for current plan members. Therefore, the long -term expected rate of return on
pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine
the total pension liability as December 31, 2014.
The long -term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined in 2013 using
a building -block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of
inflation) are developed for each major asset class. The target allocation and projected arithmetic
real rates of return for each major asset class, after deducting inflation, but before investment
expenses, used in the derivation of the long -term expected investment rate of return assumption
are summarized in the following table:

• change in the discount rate would affect the measurement of the Total Pension Liability (TPL).
• lower discount rate results in a higher TPL and higher discount rates results in a lower TPL.
Because the discount rate does not affect the measurement of assets, the percentage change in the
Net Pension Liability (NPL) can be very significant for a relatively small change in the discount
rate. The table below shows the sensitivity of the NPL to a one percent decrease and a one percent
increase in the discount rate:

B. Deferred Compensation Plan
District employees may defer a portion of their compensation under a District sponsored Deferred
Compensation Plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The plan
was established by the District's Board of Directors and any amendments to the plan must be
authorized by the Board of Directors. Under this plan, participants are not taxed on the deferred
portion of their compensation until it is distributed to them; distributions may be made only at
termination, retirement, death, or in an emergency as defined by the plan. The District does not
make contributions to the plan.
The plan's 457 assets are held in trust with ICMA Retirement Corporation for the exclusive
benefit of the participants and are not included in the District's financial statements.
C. 401 (a) Defined Contribution Plan
The District also contributes to a money purchase plan created in accordance with Internal
Revenue Code section 401(a). The plan was established by the District's Board of Directors and
any amendments to the plan must be authorized by the Board. Contributions to the plan are made
in accordance with a memorandum of understanding stating that in lieu of making payments to
Social Security, the District contributes to the 401(a) Plan an amount equal to that which would
have been contributed to Social Security on behalf of its employees as long as the District is not
required to participate in Social Security. The District contributed $1,740,604 and $1,646,041 to
the Plan during the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
The 401(a) money purchase plan assets are held in trust with ICMA Retirement Corporation for

NOTE 10 — POST EMPLOYMENT HEALTH CARE BENEFITS
A. Plan Description
The District's defined benefit post employment healthcare plan (DPHP) provides medical benefits
to eligible retired District employees and beneficiaries. DPHP is part of the Public Agency
portion of the Public Agency Retirement System (PARS), an agent multiple - employer plan
administered by PARS, which acts as a common investment and administrative agent for
participating public employees within the State of California. A menu of benefit provisions as
well as other requirements is established by the State statute with the Public Employees'
Retirement Law. DPHP selects optional benefit provisions from the benefit menu by contract
with PARS and adopts those benefits through District resolution. PARS issues a separate
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Copies of the PARS annual financial report may be
obtained from PARS, 4350 Von Karman Ave., Suite 100, Newport Beach, CA 92660, by calling
1(800) 540 -6369, or by emailing info @pars.org.
B. Funding Policy
GASB Statement No. 45 set rules for computing the employer's expense for retiree benefits other
than pension, called OPEB. The expense, called the annual OPEB Cost (AOC), is determined
similarly to pensions. The annual required contribution (ARC) of the employer, represents a level
of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal annual costs each year
and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30
years.
When an agency contributes more than the ARC, there is a net OPEB asset (NOA); when the
contribution is less than the ARC, a net OPEB obligation (NOO) results. The District had a net
OPEB asset of $1,206,765 and $1,207,678 as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
Because of the volatility of the investment market, the District Board voted to make monthly
installments into the OPEB Trust to take advantage of dollar- cost - averaging.
C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Asset
For 2015, the District's annual OPEB cost (expense) was equal to the ARC of $8,128,000. The
District contributed $5,314,087 for retiree health care premiums and $2,810,000 to the PARS
trust for a total of $8,124,087. The following table summarizes the changes in the District's net

Per PARS, trust assets as of June 30, 2015 and 2014, including trust contributions and interest,
total $39,917,736 and $36,131,536, respectively. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve
estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence
of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality,
and the health care cost trend. The funded status of the plan and the annual required
contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision, as actual results are compared
with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding
progress information below and the required supplementary information immediately following
the notes to the financial statements presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the
actuarial value of the plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time, relative to the actuarial
liabilities for benefits. Trend data from the most recent actuarial study is presented below:
Projections for benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the
plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided
at the time of each valuation as well as the historical pattern of sharing benefit costs between the
employer and plan members. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques
that are designed to reduce short -term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and actuarial value
of assets, consistent with the long -term perspective of the calculations.
The District's most recent actuarial valuation was prepared as of July 1, 2014 and was finalized
on April 6, 2015. The July 1, 2012 actuarial valuation results are budgeted in fiscal year 2014-

Property Tax and Sewer Service Charge Fees Levied and Collected
Last Ten Fiscal Years
General County taxes collected are the same as the amount levied since the County participates in California's alternative method of
apportionment called the Teeter Plan. The Teeter Plan as provided in Section 4701 et seq. of the State Revenue and Taxation Code,
establishes a mechanism for the County to advance the full amount of property tax and other levies to taxing agencies based on the
tax levy, rather than on the basis of actual tax collections. Although this system is a simpler method to administer, the County assumes
the risk of delinquencies. The County in return retains the penalties and accrued interest thereon.
** Actual amount received from the County. Net of Prop 1A loan to state of $985,916.
Includes repayment of Prop 1A loan in June, 2013. The repayment amount includes $985,916 of principal and $65,545 of interest
for a total of $1,051,461.
