BOARD OF DIRECTORS POSITION PAPER MEETING DATE: NOVEMBER 19, 2024 SUBJECT: REVI EW DRAFT POSITION PAPER TO ACCEPT (1) THE ANNUAL COMPREHENSIVE FINANCIAL REPORT (ACFR) FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AUDITED BY MAZE & ASSOCIATES, AND (2) THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' MEMORANDUM ON INTERNAL CONTROL AND REQUIRED COMMUNICATIONS FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 SUBMITTED BY: INITIATING DEPARTMENT: KEVIN MIZUNO, FINANCE MANAGER ADMINISTRATION -FINANCE REVIEWED BY: PHILIPLEIBER, DEPUTYGM -ADMINISTRATION ROGER S. BAILEY, GENERAL MANAGER ISSUE The audited ACFR of Central San for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024, and the independent auditors' memorandum on internal control and required communications for the year ended June 30, 2024, are being submitted to the Board for acceptance. BACKGROUND Independent Audit Results The independent audit firm of Maze & Associates has completed their audit of Central San's annual financial statements for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024, and has issued their audit opinion thereon. The objective of this annually required independent audit is the expression of an opinion as to whether the basic financial statements are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and to report on the fairness of the supplementary information in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. The audit is conducted in accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards in the United States (GAAS). GAAS requires the independent auditor to plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. Procedures performed necessary to gather sufficient audit evidence supporting their opinion are based on a comprehensive assessment of Central San's financial risks and incorporate an element of both internal control risks and inherent business risks. Management is pleased to announce Central San's independent auditor's report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, expresses an unmodified (clean) opinion, as outlined on page 1 of the attached ACFR (Attachment 1). November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 107 of 230 Page 2 of 114 In accordance with Califomia Govemment Code Section 53891, information from the audit is also used to prepare an annual report filed with the California State Controller's Office (SCO). This report is referred to as the Financial Transactions Report (FTR) and is prepared following the reporting guidelines published by the SCO annually. Now that the annual independent audit has been completed, the FTR for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024, will be remitted electronically by the January 31, 2025, reporting deadline. The audited financial statements will also be sent to the Contra Costa County Auditor -Controllers Office, the Contra Costa County Board of Supervisors, the Bond Rating Agencies, and posted to the Electronic Municipal Market Access (EMMA) website as required by continuing disclosure requirements for Central San's bond and certificate debt issuances. In accordance with GAAS, in the performance of their audit of the annual financial statements, the independent auditors evaluated Central San's internal controls over financial reporting. Based on their observations during the course of the audit, the independent auditors notify management of any significant deficiencies or material misstatements and any recommendations to improve the system of internal accounting controls. The independent auditors are required to communicate certain matters to those charged with governance at the conclusion of the audit, which is addressed by their "Memorandum on Internal Control and Required Communications" (Attachment 2). In addition to the clean audit opinion, management is pleased to report there were no significant deficiencies or material misstatements identified by the auditors as part of this year's audit. Financial Summary Pursuant to GAAP, as a stand-alone business -type governmental entity, Central San uses an enterprise fund format to report its activities for financial statement purposes. Under this enterprise fund format, all non -fiduciary sub -funds of the Central San (i.e., Running Expense, Sewer Construction, Self -Insurance, Debt Service) are consolidated into a single reporting unit and reported in a Statement of Net Position; Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position; and a Statement of Cash Flows. This consolidated reporting unit is considered an "opinion unit" and is what Central San's independent auditors have rendered their (clean) opinion on. Accordingly, the emphasis of the annual audited financial statements is at the District -wide level pursuant to GAAP and not at the sub -fund level. Central San's total ending net position increased by $72.4 million or 7.5 percent to a total of $1.035 billion as of June 30, 2024. The bulk of this net position, or 82.9 percent, is attributable to Central San's net investment in capital assets, largely due to its extensive network of sewage collection and treatment plant, and recycled water plant infrastructure. Non -operating revenues and expenses, which includes items such as secured ad valorem property taxes and investment income, increased net position by $35.7 million. Capital contributions for the fiscal year 2023-24 increased net position by $68.8 million, and were partially offset by a $32.2 million decrease in net position resulting from operating losses. The increase in net position is most reflected in an increase in net investment in capital assets of $77.5 million, or 9.9 percent, over the prior year. GFOA Award Program The Government Finance Officers Association (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) issued by the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB), and to prepare an ACFR that provides transparency and full disclosure, and then recognize individual governments that succeed in achieving that goal. November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 108 of 230 Page 3 of 114 On July 25, 2024, Central San was awarded a Certificate ofAchievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting by the GFOA for the report submitted for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2023, representing the 24th consecutive year Central San has received the award. The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition for excellence in state and local government financial reporting. I n 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, as well as the GFOA program requirements. The ACFR includes ten years of Central San's historical, financial, and statistical data. The ACFR provides a concise document for internal management use, as well as external use with other agencies, and is posted on Central San's website for the general public. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year. The Finance Division has prepared the Central San's ACFR as of June 30, 2024. Management is confident that the current ACFR continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Program requirements and intends to submit it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate. Commentary on Draft Status ofACFR The ACFR included with the Finance Committee agenda packet is in draft form, allowing for the Finance Committee, serving as an "audit committee" in this capacity, to provide feedback on any critical items prior to finalization of the audit and report. Central San's independent auditors anticipate issuing the final audit opinion with signature after the November 19, 2024, Special Finance Committee meeting, but prior to the forthcoming Board acceptance meeting in December 2024. Accordingly, the ACFR is clearly marked "draft" and the audit opinion letter commencing on page 1 of the ACFR is unsigned at this time. Additionally, three pages in the draft ACFR included with the agenda packet were incomplete at the time the agenda packet was finalized with the attached ACFR, which are highlighted in yellow. It is emphasized that these three incomplete pages are located solely in the statistical section of the ACFR, which are un- audited sections as outlined in the audit opinion letter. The replacement sheets for these three specific pages will be provided as handouts for the November 19, 2024 Finance Committee meeting: 1. Ten Largest Customers (pg. 68) 2. Ratios of Outstanding Debt (pg. 71) 3. Demographic and Economic Statistics (pg. 73) ALTERNATIVES/CONSIDERATIONS Preparation of an audited ACFR is required by law for all California Special Districts. The Board's acceptance of the ACFR and the related independent auditors' memorandum on internal control and other required communications is a necessary formality to finalize and permanently record receipt of the report. The Board could direct staff not to pursue the GFOA award for the ACFR. However, pursuing the award is advised, a best practice, and consistent with Central San's strategic plan and goals to provide exceptional customer service and maintain an excellent reputation in the community. FINANCIAL IMPACTS The acceptance of the independently audited ACFR for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024, does not have any direct fiscal impact on Central San. Staff intends to submit the attached ACFR to the GFOA for the Certificate ofAchievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting program, for which there is an application fee for submission of an November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 109 of 230 Page 4 of 114 ACFR for review based on total revenues of the entity applying. Based on this sliding fee schedule, Central San's fee is expected to be $560. Funding necessary to cover this cost was included in the adopted budget for the current Fiscal Year ending J une 30, 2025. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION The Finance Committee reviewed this matter at its meeting on November 19, 2024, and recommended RECOMMENDED BOARD ACTION Accept the independently audited ACFR and accompanying auditors' memorandum on internal control and required communications for the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2024.

Page 114 of 230 L0101 DI I In 110 Page 10 of 114 LCENTRAL SAN November 19, 2024 Central Contra Costa Sanitary District Customers and The Honorable Board of Directors, Martinez, California: California Government Code section 26909 requires an audit to be completed and filed with the California State Controller's Office within twelve months after the close of the fiscal year. This report is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 (FY 2023-24). 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. T he cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, and therefore the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. The District's independent auditors, Maze & Associates, has issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the District's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2024. The independent auditors' 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 auditors' 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 approximately 30 miles east of San Francisco. The District builds, operates and maintains the facilities required to collect and clean wastewater for approximately 351,000 residents of Danville, Lafayette, Martinez, Moraga, Orinda, Pleasant Hill, San Ramon, Walnut Creek and some of the unincorporated communities within its District boundaries. The District also treats wastewater for approximately 132,000 residents of the Cities of Concord and Clayton under a 1974 (and as subsequently amended) contract with the City of Concord. The District is committed to protecting public health and preserving the environment at responsible rates, through diligent long-range financial planning and managing costs responsibly. The District has approximately 1,500 miles of sewer pipeline, ranging in size from 4 inches to 102 inches in diameter, and 18 sewage -pumping stations (three of which are privately owned) in the November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 116 of 230 Page 11 of 114 District's sewage collection system. The District is the sole provider of wastewater collection and treatment service within the District limits (see map of service area). The residential segment makes up the largest segment of the District's customer base generating over eighty percent of total Sewer Service Charges operating revenues. The District's treatment capacity has grown significantly from a modest 4.5 million gallons per day (mgd) in 1948 to 53.8 mgd currently. Bonds, certificates of participation, state/federal grants, and pay-as-you-go local revenue sources of the District have traditionally financed capital expenditures and capacity expansions. While pay -as -you go local revenue sources have been the primary financing mechanism for the District's capital program over the past decade, debt financing is expected to gradually increase, with the need for enhanced capital expenditures to replacing aging infrastructure and meet regulatory requirements for enhanced nutrient removal. This is demonstrated by the issuance of $50.6 million in certificates of participation in June 2021 and up to an anticipated $173.1 million in California Water Board State Revolving Fund loan proceeds to finance a large solids handling facility improvements project. In addition to these approved debt issuances, the District's long-range financial plan also anticipates the use of additional debt financing for UV disinfection upgrades, solids handling, and nutrient removal infrastructure needs. The District also operates a Recycled Water Program, in collaboration with Contra Costa Water District, that provides high -quality recycled water for landscape irrigation at schools, parks, playgrounds, median strips and playing fields, as well as dust control and industrial process uses. Due to strong customer demand, the District maintained operation of A4 Residential Recycled Water Fill Station, which allows residential customers to obtain a maxi;0h f 300 gallens of recycled water per trip for use in hand watering lawns, landscaping, and garden District also actively pursues new recycled water expansion opportunities to take advantage of the potential water supply that highly -treated wastewater represents, particularly given California's limited water supply. The District has been collaborating with public water agency partners to jointly invest in a project that will enable the District to comply with future nutrient discharge regulations while producing a new water supply to help ease the region's water shortage. The District recently executed a Memorandum of Understanding with East Bay Municipal Utility District (EBMUD) that will evaluate several potential recycled water projects together, including an option for potable reuse - introducing highly -treated recycled water into EBMUD's drinking water supplofFhe District,continues to actively promote water recycling, given the role this would have in addre the statewide water shortage and the developing effects of climate change. In addition to its responsibility to collect and treat wastewater, the District also undertakes pollution prevention initiatives through the operation and maintenance of a permanent Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) Collection Facility in partnership with Mt. 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 a vital part of our overall Pollution Prevention Program. Having completed its 27th year of operation, the HHW Facility served over 32,000 residential and small business customers. On average, over two million pounds of hazardous waste is collected and properly disposed of annually, collecting over 1.8 million pounds of waste in FY 2023-24. In conjunction with its HHW program, the District's Pharmaceutical Collection Program further encourages pollution prevention having approximately 1,900 pounds of expired or unwanted medications between its four collection sites in FY 2023-24. Organization. Accounting and Budgetary Controls A five -member Board of Directors governs the District. The Board sets policies, appoints officers, and hires and oversees the District's General Manager, Secretary of the District, and District Counsel. The Board positions are non -partisan and serve staggered four-year terms. The District began a transition from an "at -large" election system to an area -based "by -division" election system November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 117 of 230 Page 12 of 114 under the California Voting Rights Act in 2020. Two Board members were elected in November 2022 and were the first to represent their respective division as part of the by -district election system (Divisions 2 and 3). Thereafter, the remaining Board members were elected on a by -division basis in November 2024 (Divisions 1, 4 and 5) completing Central San's transition to a by -district election system. The Board appoints the General Manager, who in accordance with policies established by the Board, manages District affairs. The District employed 279 permanent regular full-time employees at fiscal year-end out of 298 authorized permanent regular full-time positions for that fiscal year. These employees are organized into three departments steered by an Executive Governance unit. Two Deputy General Managers direct Central San's management team, which is responsible for the budgets and expenses of all divisions and programs that comprise Central San's three operational departments. The three departments are: Administration, Engineering and Technical Services, and Operations. The District charges fees to its customers for providing sewer collection and treatment services, which are the primary operational revenue source. Accordingly, pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the District uses full accrual enterprise fund accounting to account for its operations, which is similar, though not identical, to private industry. The District currently has one enterprise fund for financial reporting purposes, which is comprised of the following four internal sub -funds for internal accounting purposes: • 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 the Operations & Maintenance or "O&M" Fund). • 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"). • 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 (i.e. Sewer Construction), Self -Insurance, and Debt -Service. The Board and Finance Committee review interim financial reports on a quarterly basis for fiduciary purposes, with management receiving more detailed monthly budget -to -actual results for budget monitoring purposes. District management is accountable for monitoring variances and adhering to overall budget constraints. The Board has delegated various contracting and spending authority to the General Manager, as specified by an adopted Board policy. Additional limited contracting and spending authority is further delegated to certain staff classifications as specified by internal signature limits. The District also has several documented financial policies (i.e., debt management, investments, fiscal reserves, pension and OPEB funding, etc.) that are periodically reviewed and updated to ensure their consistency with best practices as well as changes in laws and regulations. ASSESSING THE DISTRICT'S ECONOMIC CONDITION Economy and Outlook According to the State of California's Legislative Analyst's Office (LAO), despite the strong rebound from the global pandemic observed in the prior year, significant rate hikes by the Federal Reserve to curb growing inflation in calendar year 2022 and 2023 have led to weaknesses in certain parts of the State's economy, particularly housing and financial markets. Many economists expect this weakness to continue over the next year and have downgraded their outlook for the economy. State tax collections in recent months have been weaker than estimated by the State's FY 2022-23 budget. Estimated income tax payments for 2022 were notably weaker than 2021, likely due to falling stock prices, and reduced capital gains taxes. The LAO's FY 2023-24 fiscal outlook anticipates a $25 billion budget deficit mainly attributable to lower revenue estimates from FY 2021-22 through FY 2023-24 by $41 billion, offset by November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 118 of 230 Page 13 of 114 reductions in spending. Their outlook projects annual deficits declining from $17 billion to $8 billion over the next several years. These estimates incorporate a risk of recession but do not reflect a recession scenario, which if it does occur, could lead to revenues coming in $30 to $50 billion below the outlook projections. The State currently has roughly enough in reserves ($23 million) to cover the budget deficit, but not if a recession occurs. The LAO is recommending a pause in budget allocations to one-time and temporary programs to reduce spending. A key assumption in the multiyear outlook is that estimated revenues are expected to decline in the short-term, then stabilize and remain largely flat between FY 2023-2024 and FY 2024-25, and then grow again in FY 2025-26 through 2026-27 after the effects of inflation and corresponding Federal Reserve rate hikes subside. According to the California Employment Development Department (EDD), the Contra Costa County unemployment increased from 4.1% in September 2023 to 4.8% in September 2024. This combination of high interest rates and increasing unemployment could lead to slower than normal economic growth in the local economy, which may slightly adversely impact permit and capacity fee revenues related to development, as well as consumption based commercial sewer service charges. Long -Term Financial Planning The District strives to maintain an excellent reputation in providing public service, which includes transparent and accessible governance, financial reporting and management, sewage collection and treatment, workforce safety, capital improvements and replacements, innovative use of technology, and customer service. The Board of Directors approved a four-year sewer service charge rate adjustment schedule in April 2019 spanning July 2019 through Jupe 2023. The foMr-year sewer service charge rate increases ranged from 4.75% to 5.25% annually, subject to a Board review for continued necessity prior to the start of each fiscal year. The planned increases are a critical component of implementing the treatment plant and collection system capital improvement projects specified in the District's 20-year Master Plan adopted in 2017. In the spring of 2023, two years of rate adjustments were adopted for the upcoming two fiscal years 2023-24 and 2024-25, with overall Sewer Service Charge rates increasing by 1% and 4%, respectively, for single family residential customers. Other customer classes faced differing rate adjustments in the first year, the same 4% increase for the second year, as a result of a cost of service study. As noted previously, in conjuncts wi he approved sewer service charge rates, the District's latest 10-year financial plan anticipates th panded use of debt financing to address major capital spending projects including upgrades to the UV disinfection system, solids handling, and nutrient removal infrastructure needs. While the District's FY 2024-25 capital budget is only increasing by approximately $9.5 million (13.4%) over the prior year's adopted budget to $80.7 million, the long-term financial plan forecasts capital spending in excess of $100 million in each of the following five fiscal years consecutively thereafter. The long-term financial plan strives to carefully balance capital financing with modest customer rate increases to achieve long-term rate stability and inter -generational equity while responding to a growing list of long-term challenges (i.e., ageing infrastructure, growing capacity needs, and new regulations). November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee MlVing Agenda Packet - Page 119 of 230 Page 14 of 114 District management analyzes and updates a strategic plan every two years, with the seven goals in effect during FY 2023-24 being: 1. Customer and Community - Provide exceptional customer service, 2. Environmental Stewardship - Meet regulatory requirements, promote sustainability, and identify and reduce contributions to climate change and mitigate its impacts, 3. Workforce Diversity & Development - Recruit, educate, empower, and retain a workforce from diverse backgrounds, 4. Governance & Fiscal Responsibility - Uphold integrity, transparency, and wise financial management in an effective governing model, 5. Safety & Security - Provide a safe, secure, and healthful workplace that foresees and addresses threats, 6. Infrastructure Reliability - Maintain facilities and equipment to be dependable resilient, and long lasting, and 7. Innovation & Agility - Optimize operations for continuous improvement and remain flexible and adaptable. Strategies to achieve each of these seven goals are developed, as well as metrics to evaluate success. Performance on achievement of the goals in the plan is reported quarterly to the Board. The District updates a 10-year financial plan each year prior to the completion, presentation, and adoption of the annual budget. The main economic factors considered in this long-term forecasting exercise are: the impact of state legislation and mandates, regulatory compliance, GASB reporting requirements, negotiated labor contract terms (including projected changes in retirement and health care costs), energy costs and interpreting the energy market, interest rates, housing growth, and infrastructure renewal and replacement needs. The unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities (UAAL) for the District's pension and other post -employment benefit (OPEB) plans are also considered in the financial planning process. Pursuant to the most recently issued independent actuarial reports, the District had a strong funded net position as a percentage of total pension liability in both its pension and OPEB plans of approximately 92.9% (as of the December 31, 2023 measurement date) and 107.8% (as of the June 30, 2024 measurement date) respectively. These plan funded statuses are carefully monitored as the District's pension and OPEB funding policies set targets of proactively achieving fully funded status, which is considered in each long-term financial plan update. The District anticipates it will continue to meet its mission and goals, continue to provide excellent customer service at responsible rates to its customers, and meet compliance requirements and other goals as specified in its strategic plan for the foreseeable future. Relevant Financial Policies Investment policies for the District's assets, the OPEB trust, and the pension prefunding trust are reviewed and approved at least biennially by the Board. During FY 2023-24, utilizing budgetary savings from the prior year, the District Board directed an additional $1 million be contributed to the pension pre -funding trust as a mechanism to hedge against recent actuarial results showing a slight growth in the pension plan UAAL following losses realized in calendar year 2022. Section 53646 of the California Government Code governs the District's investment practices, with changes in legislation being considered in the Board's annual review of District investment policies. Additionally, the Board receives quarterly financial reports that include budgetary highlights as well as investment portfolio reports. The OPEB trust and the Section 115 pension prefunding trusts are governed by separate investment policies. Since 2008, the OPEB trust fund have been invested using a "moderate" investment strategy, reflecting the relatively long-term horizon for use of the funds. In contrast, the pension prefunding trust funds are invested using a "moderately" conservative strategy, November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meting Agenda Packet - Page 120 of 230 Page 15 of 114 reflecting its relatively shorter -term outlook as a secondary trust to the primary plan administered by the pension administrator. These two irrevocable trusts are managed by an outside investment advisor subject to investment policies adopted by the Board. The Board Finance Committee reviews the OPEB trust and pension pre -funding trust performance on a quarterly basis. Major Initiatives The District's vision statement in effect during FY 2023-24 was to be an innovative industry leader in environmental stewardship and sustainability, while delivering exceptional service at responsible rates. As noted previously, the Board and its appointed management team strives to achieve this vision through the establishment of a strategic plan that establishes seven overarching goals, each with their own specific underlying strategies, initiatives, and key success measures. The District has received the Platinum award from the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) for 26 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 90% in the past 20 years by improved sewer cleaning and a robust sewer rehabilitation program. As described previously, the District reviews and adopts a Strategic Plan every two years. In FY 2021- 22, the District Board and Management developed a new Strategic Plan for FY 2022-23 and FY 2023- 24, which was completed and adopted by the Board in the Spring of 2022, immediately prior to the adoption of the FY 2022-23 budget. The District continues to analyze current and future rates, costs, and cash flows to ensure consistency with its cost of service studies, with the most recent study having been completed in the Spring of 2023. t j� 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 Management Plan to evaluate options for addressing future regulatory requirements. The latest Management Plan was completed in FY 2016-17 and is intended to be used as a roadmap for capital improvements over the next two decades. Individual projects are proposed in an annual capital improvement budget and brought to the Board for approval prior to the start of the year. Additionally, to facilitate more streamlined contracting and approval process for smaller capital projects, the Board adopted the Uniform Construction Cost Accounting Act (UPCCA) in May 2018. The District will be focusing on meeting the nutrient management requirements adopted by the State of California Regional Water Control Board for the San Francisco region in July 2024. The newly adopted regulation requires a substantial 40% reduction in nutrient discharges by the publicly owned treatment works, including Central San, discharging effluent into the Bay by 2034, with interim caps and limits until that date. The District intends to develop a plan to meet these requirements in the next one to two years, indicating the technologies to be relied up to achieve these requirements.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the business -type activities of the District as of June 30, 2024, and the change in financial positions and, cash flows thereof for the years then ended in accor ce with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. I Basis for Opinions We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the District and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirement relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Responsibilities of Management for the 'na Statements Management is responsible for the aration nd air presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally acce in the United States of America; and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the District's ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.

Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the District's ability to contin as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance reg ng, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings; and certain in emal control -related matters that we identified during the audit. Report on Summarized Comparative Information We have previously audited the District's June 0�23 ncial statements, and we expressed an unmodified audit opinions on those audited financial statements in our report dated November 29, 2023. In our opinion, the summarized comparative information presented herein as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023 is consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements from which it has been derived. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that Management's Discussion and Analysis and other Required Supplementary Information, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, 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.

This information is presented in conjunction with the audited financial statements, which follow this report. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS The District's 2023-24 financial highlights are listed below. These results are discussed in more detail later in the report. The District's total ending net position increased by $72.4 million or 7.5% in 2023-24. The increase in net position is largely reflected in the increase in net investment in capital assets of $77.5 million. Total changes in deferred inflows, outflows, assets and liabilities related to post retirement and pension benefits resulted in a d crease in net position of $6.0 million. Changes in these balances are highly sitiveQNortfolio performance and actuarial assumptions regarding future invest t morns. 7 Total operating revenue, excluding capital contributions, increased by $17.8 million or 25.5% in 2023-24. This increase is directly attributable to a higher apportionment of sewer service charges to operating revenues; 56.0% allocated to operating revenues in 2023- 2024 compared to 41.1% in 2022-2023. The change in allocation was directed by the Board in contemplation with the reappropriation of reserves for the sewer construction fund budget for 2023-2024. r Total 2023-24 operatin expenses, excluding depreciation and amortization, increased by $5.8 million or 6.7%. The overall increase in operating expenses is mainly driven by an increase in salaries and benefits expenses of $2.7 million in addition to an increase in contracted services expenses of $1.4 million. • Capital Contributions decreased in 2023-24 by $17.0 million or 19.8%. The decrease is mainly due to a reduced allocation of sewer service charges to finance the capital program, as noted previously. To a lesser extent, the decrease was also driven by reduced capacity fees and partially offset with an increase in contributions from the City of Concord for its share of capital project costs eligible for cost sharing. November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 133 of 230 Page 28 of 114 OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The District operates as a utility enterprise and presents its financial statements using the economic resources measurement focus and the full accrual basis of accounting. As an enterprise fund, the District's basic financial statements are comprised of two components: financial statements and the accompanying footnotes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves. In accordance with the GASB Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, the District's annual financial balances and transactions are summarized and reported in the following financial statements: • 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. 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 -cash activities. 0 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 134 of 230 Page 29 of 114 STATEMENT OF NET POSITION The following table shows the condensed statement of net position of the District for the past three fiscal years: Table 1- Condensed Statement of Net Position Assets Current assets Capital assets, net Other non -current assets Total assets Deferred outflows Pension related OPEB related Total deferred outflows Liabilities Current liabilities Long-term liabilities Total liabilities Deferred inflows Pension related OPEB related Lease related Total deferred inflows Year Ending June 30 2024 vs. 2023 2024 vs. 2022 $ Increase % Increase $ Increase % Increase 2024 2023 2022 (Decrease) (Decrease) (Decrease) (Decrease) $ 232,403,524 $ 219,378,496 $ 174,679,739 $ 13,025,028 5.9% $ 57,723,785 33.0% 920,070,698 849,413,151 812,744,909 70,657,547 8.3% 107,325,789 13.2% 11,087,504 5,412,595 59,093,444 5,674,909 104.8% (48,005,9401 -81.2% 1,163,561,726 1,074,204,242 1,046,518,092 89,357,484 8.3% 117,043,634 11.2% 54,258,588 78,754,514 122,427,550 (24,495,926) -31.1% (68,168,962) -55.7% 743,072 5,100,448 8,302,309 (4,357,376) -85.4% (7,559,237) -91.0% 55,001,660 83,854,962 130,729,859 (28,853,302) -34.4% (75,728,199) -57.9% 37,280,350 25,281,001 95,855,515 104,306,325 133,13 5,865 129, 587, 326 39,519,504 52,931,043 7,172,709 8,555,091 3,364,942 3,970,164 50,057,155 65,456,298 27,956,046 11,999,349 47.5% 72,665,537 (8,450,810) -8.1% 100,621,583 , 3,548,539 2.7% 179,778,9 3,411,539 -25.3% 2,087, 1,382,382) -16.2% 4,514,63 (605,222) 100.0% *J81,527 X,399,143) 23.5% 9,324,304 33.4% 23,189,978 31.9% 32,514,282 32.3% (140,259,439) -78.0% 5,084,763 243.5% (1,149,696) 100.0% (136,324,372) -73.1% Net position Net investment in capital assets 857,800,710 780,344,1 747,646,783 77,456,565 9.9% 110,153,927 14.7% Restricted 7,570,428 15 53,543,803 7,416,988 4833.8% (45,973,375) -85.9% Unrestricted 169,999,228 182, 995 89,054,2SS (12,518,767) -6.9% 80,944,973 90.9% Total net position $ 1,035,370,366 $ 963,0 0 $ 890,244,841 $ 72,354,786 7.5% $ 145,125,525 16.3% Total net position of the District increase%iori *963.0 million in 2022-23 to $1,035.4 million in 2023-24, an increase of 7.5%. This represents an increase of $145.1 million, or 16.3% when compared to 2021-22. Total assets increased $89.4 million or 8.3% compared to 2022-23 and increased $117.0 million or 11.2% compared to 2021-22. Total liabilities increased $3.5 million or 2.7% compared to 2022-23 and increased $32.5 million or 32.3% compared to 2021-22. The increase in net position over the two-year period totaling $145.1 million is a result of pension -related actuarially determined deferred inflows decreasing from $179.8 million in 2021-22 to $39.5 million in 2023- 24; a decrease in deferred inflows increases net position. Additionally, over the same timeframe, the District received $154.6 million in capital contributions, mostly through the allocation of sewer service charges to the capital improvement program, which largely drove the increase in current and capital assets reported previously. Conversely, over the same timeframe, the District reported a reduction in deferred pension related outflows of $68.2 million and a $90.1 million reclassification of its net pension asset to a net liability. As a public utility relying heavily on a complex infrastructure network, the largest portion of the District's net position by far (82.8%) 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 and/or construct those assets that is still outstanding. The District uses these capital assets to provide wastewater treatment, collection, and other services to its customers, and consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the District's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, the funds needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves 7 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 135 of 230 Page 30 of 114 are not available to discharge these liabilities. The balance of $170.0 million in unrestricted net position reflects a decrease of $11.2 million from 2022-23 and an increase of $80.9 million from 2021-22. As noted previously, this increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in pension related deferred inflows offset by an increase in the net pension liability.

This represents a decrease of $31.1 million or 26.2% when compared to 2021-22. Increases and decreases in operating revenue compared to prior years is mostly attributed to the allocation of sewer service charges between operations and the capital program as determined by the Board through the annual budget adoption process. Total sewer service charges, whether designated as operating revenue or capital contributions, have remained relatively stable in comparison. Total sewer service charges were $118.0 million in 2023-24, $117.3 million in 2022-23, and $111.0 million in 2021-2022, representing an annualized 3.1% cumulative growth rate from 2023-24 to 2021-2022. This increase is predominantly driven by modest increases to customer rates and changing rate structures resulting from the District's study of cost analysis. Total non -operating revenue increased from $30.3 million in 2022-23 to $35.7 million in 2023-24, an increase of $5.4 million or 17.8%. This represents an increase of $9.3 million or 35.3% when compared to 2021-22. Investment earnings were the largest driver of the increase over both time periods, with a $3.7 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 136 of 230 Page 31 of 114 million increase compared to 2022-23 and $7.1 million increase compared to 2021-22. The increase in investment earnings is attributable to a higher than normal interest rate environment persisting through the year paired an increase in working capital reserves with capital spending falling short of the budget over the past few years. The impact of high interest rates is clearly visible when assessing District's investment yields which have averaged 5.06%, 4.14%, and 1.06% in 2023-24, 2022-23, and 2021-22 respectively. Secured ad valorem property taxes levied through the annual county tax roll have also contributed to the increase in non -operating revenues attributable to an increase in property valuations and development within the District, generating revenue growth of $1.2 million or 5.0% from 2022-23, and $2.8 million or 13.4% from 2021-22. Expenses Total expenses increased from $113.3 million in 2022-23 to $120.0 million in 2023-24, an increase of $6.7 million or 5.9%. This is an increase of $15.3 million or 14.6% when compared to 2021-22. The District recognized total pension and deferred compensation expenses of $17.5 million in 2023-24 compared to $16.0 million in 2022-23, an increase of $1.5 million or 9.4%, largely due to increases in the actuarially - determined pension expense. Salaries, wages, and compensated absences expenses increased by $2.8 million or 4.5% from 2022-23, largely due to scheduled pay increases previously negotiated cost of living adjustments with District employee unions and a decreased use of in' -service compensated absence pay -outs by District employees. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in other post employment benefit (OPEB) expenses of $0.3 million, as determined by an outside tuary, when compared to 2022-23. Additionally, contracted services increased by $1.4 million or 13.5% a mpared to 2022-23, largely driven by consulting and information technology support costs to support ongoing enterprise planning resource enhancements and other strategic initiatives. A Income before capital contributions totaled $3.5 million in 20Y23-24, an increase of $16.6 million compared to 2022-23 and a decrease of $37.1 million as compared to 2021-22. These changes are largely attributable to the Board -approved split of sewer service charges between operations and capital purposes as mentioned previously, and changes in actuarially determined pension and OPEB expenses. AVW Total capital contributions in 2023-24 decreased to $68.8 million from $85.8 million in 2022-23 but increased from $24.1 million in 2021-22. As noted previously, these changes are largely attributable to a change in the allocation of sewer service charges between operating and capital purposes as specified in the Board -adopted 2023-24 budget. The District has also seen steady increases in other capital contributions derived from its agreement with the City of Concord for its share of eligible capital project expenses, generating $11.5 million, $10.0 million, and $7.8 million in 2023-24, 2022-23, and 2021-22, respectively. With the City of Concord's proportionate share of influent waste remaining stable, these increases in capital contributions reflect the increased capital spending undertaken by the District. CAPITAL ASSETS Net capital assets for fiscal years 2023-24, 2022-23 and 2021-22 totaled $920.1 million, $849.4 million, $812.7 million, respectively, representing an increase of $70.7 million or 8.3% from 2022-23, and a $107.3 million or 13.2% increase from 2021-22. Net capital assets are mostly comprised of the District's capital infrastructure including wastewater treatment facilities, sewer pipes, land, buildings, pumping stations, vehicles, intangible assets, furniture, and equipment, less accumulated depreciation. A comparison of the District's capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, over the past three fiscal years is presented below: 0 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 137 of 230 Page 32 of 114 Table 3 - Net Capital Assets Year Ending June 30 2024 vs. 2023 2024 vs. 2022 $Increase % Increase $ Increase % Increase 2024 2023 2022 (Decrease) (Decrease) (Decrease) (Decrease) Structures, buildings, and equipment $ 714,895,881 $ 700,065,619 $ 694,343,750 $14,830,262 2.1% $ 20,552,131 3.0% Land and rights of way 22,596,053 22,585,007 22,582,507 11,046 0.0% 13,546 0.1% Construction in progress 182,578,764 126,762,525 95,818,652 55,816,239 44.0% 86,760,112 90.5% Total 920,070,698 849,413,151 812,744,909 70,657,547 8.3% 107,325,789 13.2% These increases are a result of an expanding capital improvement program to replace aging treatment plant and collection system infrastructure, address regulatory requirements, and improve the sustainability of operations and technology. In this timeframe, spending has exceeded depreciation with capital outlays largely financed through pay-as-you-go resources (i.e., new revenue and reserves) supplemented with loan proceeds from the Clean Water State Revolving Fund. The construction in progress balance increases by ongoing capital outlays for existing projects, which have yet to reach substantial completion. Conversely, this balance decreases by transfers to an appropriate asset category upon completion. No depreciation expense is recorde r capital assets in the construction in progress category. Increases to construction in progress show iouSly indicate an excess of spending on capital projects over project completions, reflecting the mul '- ear ure of the bulk of the District's capital projects.

DEBT ADMINISTRATION Total long-term debt inclusive of unamortized premiums, excluding liabilities related to pension, OPEB and compensated absences liabilities, for fiscal years 2023-24, 2022-23 and 2021-22 totaled $60.1 million, $67.8 million, and $64.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2024, the District's outstanding debt totaled $60.1 million, a decrease of $7.7 million or 11.3% compared to the debt balance of $67.8 million on June 30, 2023. In 2023-24, the District retired $7.1 million of principal and increased loan borrowings from the Clean Water State Revolving Fund (SRF) by $0.6 million. The District increased its borrowings from the Clean Water State Revolving Fund in the current year to reimburse eligible costs for the Solids Handling Facility Improvements capital project which will be repaid after completion of the project, currently estimated to occur in 2027. The total amount of approved project costs eligible for reimbursement through the Clean Water State Revolving Fund are $173.1 million. As of June 30, 2024, the District has received inception -to -date SRF loan proceeds 10 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 138 of 230 Page 33 of 114 totaling $16.2 million and expects a significant increase in borrowings in the near term on this relatively low interest (0.9% annual) debt. The primary source of funds pledged to and securing the repayment of debt issuances for the capital improvement program is ad valorem secured property taxes. The District's ability to obtain flexible, low-cost debt remains paramount to its ability to execute on its long term plan and deliver reliable services at low costs to its customers. The District continues to maintain high debt service coverage ratios and other key indicators of financial health after receiving Aa1 and AAA from Moody's and S&P Global respectively in its most recent bond issuance, which it believes is critical in allowing the District to access affordable debt to meet its strategic initiatives. Refer to Note 6 for additional information on the District's outstanding debt obligations. ECONOMIC FACTORS, NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET, AND RATES The District operates as an enterprise fund primarily financed by fees charged to external customers for services. The District charges rates and fees to customers to cover the costs of operation and maintenance of the sewage collection and treatment system as well as costs associated with its capital replacement and improvement program. External factors that may affect the District's financial position include, but are not limited to the following: • Regulatory requirements becoming more stringent, causing the District to spend more on compliance, both for operations and maintenance costs as well as capital improvement and replacement projects. M' • The economic cycle, creating volatility with capac' connection fee revenues as new development projects are highly sensitive to the economic cycle. 4,4 • Interest rate and/or investment return, whichlr rectly impacts investment earnings, borrowing costs, and employer pension and OPEB contrib> •on uirements. • Inflation, as measured using the co me rice index (CPI). The CPI for the San Francis co- Oakland - Hayward area directly impacts he t-of-Iving adjustments provided in the employee labor agreements. Higher than anticipa n ion may also adversely impact spending for contracted services, energy, chemicals, fuel, and o er aterials/supplies necessary for wastewater collection and treatment services. • Fluctuations in assessed property values and development activity, which affect the District's non - operating ad valorem secured property tax revenue. When the housing market grows, overall assessed property values increase, thereby increasing the District's property tax revenues. Conversely, any decline in the housing market could decrease property values and correspondingly decrease ad valorem property tax receipts for the District. These factors, to the extent known, were considered in preparing the District's budget. In June 2024, the District's Board of Directors adopted an operating and maintenance budget of $96.0 million and sewer construction capital improvement budget of $80.7 million for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. Following a cost of service study, customer outreach, public noticing, and a public hearing stipulated by Proposition 218, on June 30, 2023 the District's Board of Directors approved new sewer service charges for the two-year timeframe spanning July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2025. The new sewer service charge rates incorporate an overall modest rate increase of 1% for the year ending June 30, 2024 and 4% for the year ending June 30, 2025. As designed in the District's long-term financial plan, steady but controlled sewer service charge rate increases help prevent spikes in revenue needs from customers in future years when annual capital spending is expected to significantly, but temporarily, outpace annual revenues. This pay-as-you-go approach, paired with necessary and responsible debt financing, is designed with the intent of achieving rate stability and 11 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 139 of 230 Page 34 of 114 avoid volatility in the long -run, benefiting both the District and its customers. Primary drivers for the expansion of the capital improvement program include the need to enhance and modernize the District's ageing infrastructure to meet new regulatory requirements and ensure the sustainability of its infrastructure as the region's population grows driving growing demand for service capacity.

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 people 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 accounting and financial reporting guidance. 19 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 147 of 230 Page 42 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 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 and amortization, 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 and amortization, 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. Rate Stabilization Accounts (RSA) have been established by the Board and consist of book accounts in the Running Expense and Sewer Construction Funds. Deposits and withdrawals to/from RSA require Board approval. 20 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 148 of 230 Page 43 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 1- DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) C. Investments Investments held at June 30, 2024 and 2023, with original maturities greater than one year, are stated at fair value. Fair value is estimated using matrix pricing techniques, a market approach, which estimates the value of securities based on their relationship to quoted benchmark prices. All investments not required to be reported at fair value are stated at cost or amortized cost. D. Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The District categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are inputs - other than quoted prices included within level 1- that are observable for an asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for an asset or liability. If the fair value of an asset or liability is measured using inputs from more than one level of the fair value hierarchy, the measurement is considered to be based on the lowest priority level input that is significant to the entire measurement. E. Prepaid Expenses Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in the financial statements. F. Parts and Supplies Parts and supplies are valued at average cost and are used primarily for internal purposes. 21 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 149 of 230 Page 44 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 1- DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) G. Property, Plant, and Equipment Purchased capital assets are stated at historical cost. Capital assets contributed to the District are reported at acquisition value. 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 calculated using the straight-line method over the asset's useful life as follows: Years Sewage Collection Facilities 75 Intangible Assets 75 Sewage Treatment Plant and Pumping Plants 40 Buildings 50 Furniture and Equipment 5 - 15 Motor Vehicles 7 - 15 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. Property tax revenue recognized equals the amount levied as 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 actual tax collections. Under this arrangement, the County assumes the risk of delinquencies but retains all rights to receive 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 11/a 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. 22 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 150 of 230 Page 45 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 1- DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) L 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 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. I 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. K. Leases A lease is defined as a contract that conveys control of the right to use another entity's nonfinancial asset (the underlying asset) as specified in a contract for a period of time in an exchange or exchange -like transaction. All such contracts with noncancelable periods greater than twelve months, which do not also transfer ownership at contract termination, are accounted for as leases. L. Prior Year Summarized Comparative Information The basic financial statements include certain prior -year summarized comparative information in total but not at the level of detail required for a presentation in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be read in conjunction with the District's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023, from which the summarized information was derived. M. New Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Pronouncements - Adopted GASB Statement No. 100 - In June 2022, GASB Statement No. 100, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, was issued. GASB Statement No. 100 (GASB 100) intends to improve the clarity of the accounting and financial reporting requirements for accounting changes and error corrections, which will result in greater consistency in application in practice. In turn, more understandable, reliable, relevant, consistent, and comparable information will be provided to financial statement users for making decisions or assessing accountability. In addition, the display and note disclosure requirements will result in more consistent, decision useful, understandable, and comprehensive information for users about accounting changes and error corrections. 23 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 151 of 230 Page 46 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 1- DESCRIPTION OF DISTRICT AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Implementation Guide No. 2023-01- In June 2023, Implementation Guide No. 2023-1 was issued by the GASB to clarify and elaborate on GASB Statement No. 87 Leases and GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription Based Information Technology Arrangements. The guide provides clarity on the determination of the lease term across a variety of contracts with varying termination and extension clauses held by lessees and lessors. N. New Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Pronouncements - Not Yet Adopted GASB Statement No. 101 - In June 2022, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 101, Compensated Absences. The unified recognition and measurement model in this Statement will result in a liability for compensated absences that more appropriately reflects when a government incurs an obligation. In addition, the model can be applied consistently to any type of compensated absence and will eliminate potential comparability issues between governments that offer different types of leave. The model also will result in a more robust estimate of the amount of compensated absences that a government will pay or settle, which will enhance the relevance and reliability of information about the liability for compensated absences. This Statement is effective for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The District does not expect this Statement to have a material impact on its financial statements. GASB Statement No. 102 - In December 2023, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 102, Certain Risk Disclosures. The requirements of this Statement will improve financial reporting by providing users of financial statements with essential information that currently is not often provided. The disclosures will provide users with timely information regarding certain concentrations or constraints and related events that have occurred or have begun to occur that make a government vulnerable to a substantial impact. As a result, users will have better information with which to understand and anticipate certain risks to a government's financial condition. This Statement is effective for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The District is currently evaluating the impact this Statement will have on its financial statements. GASB Statement No. 103 - In April 2024, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 103, Financial Reporting Model Improvements. The requirements of this Statement include changes to the presentation of the following items reported in the financial statements: Management's Discussion and Analysis, Unusual or Infrequent Items, the Statement of Revenues, Expenses, and Changes in Net Position, Major Component Information, and Budgetary Comparison Information. This Statement is effective for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The District is currently evaluating the impact this Statement will have on its financial statements. 24 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 152 of 230 Page 47 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS A.

The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in an active market for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. The following is a summary of the fair value hierarchy of the fair value of investments of the District as of June 30, 2024: Investment Type Investments Reported at Fair Value: U.S. Treasury Obligations Total External Investment Pool (Exempt): California Local Agency Investment Fund Investments Exempt from Fair Value Hierarchy: Restricted Cash and Investments Cash and Mutual Funds held with Pension Trust Cash in bank and On Hand Total Cash and Investments 2024 Level Total $123,500,000 $123,500,000 $123,500,000 123,500,000 53,600,000 3,622 1,076,737 11,877,285 $190.057.644 U.S. Treasury Obligations totalin $123.5 million classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using matrix pricing techniques maintained by various pricing vendors.

Matrix pricing estimates a security's fair value based on the security's relationship to benchmark quoted prices. E. 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 precludes investment in securities with maturities in excess of five years, with the exception of investments in Treasury Notes or Local Agency Investment Funds; 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 investments by maturity, as of June 30: November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 156 of 230 Page 51 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS (Continued) Investment Type U.S. Treasury Obligations California Local Agency Investment Fund Total Restricted Cash and Investments Restricted Cash and Mutual Funds held with Pension Trust Cash in bank Total Cash and Investments 2024 12 Months or Less $123,500,000 53,600,000 $ 177,100,000 Total $123,500,000 53,600,000 177,100,000 3,622 1,076,737 11,877,285 $190,057,644 2023 12 Months Investment Type or Less 13 to 24 Months Total U.S. Treasury Obligations $104,500,000 $2,500,000 $107,000,000 U.S. Federal Agency Securities - FHLB 13,500,000 13,500,000 California Local Agency Investment Fund 45,600, 0 - 45,600,000 Total $ 163,600,% NW $ 2,500,000 166,100,000 Restricted Cash and Investments 1,527 Restricted Cash and Mutual Funds held with Pension Trust 43,662 Cash in bank 15,598,319 Total Cash and Investments $181,743,508 Investment in LAIF - The District is a olu ry participant in LAIF which is regulated by the California Government Code under th��slght 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, 2024 and 2023, these investments had weighted average maturities of 217 and 260 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 an amortized cost basis. 29 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 157 of 230 Page 52 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS (Continued) F. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the actual rating as of June 30, of each investment type as provided by Moody's investment rating system, of which a P -1 rating is the top rating for short term investments.

Concentration of Credit Risk The investment policies of the District contain no limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond that stipulated by the California Government Code. As of June 30, 2024, the District does not have investments in any one issuer (other than U.S. Treasury securities, mutual funds, and external investment pools) that represent 5 percent or more of total investments. H. 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. As a voluntary pool participant, the County Treasurer's office transacts 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. 30 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 158 of 230 Page 53 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 3 - ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Accounts receivable for the years ended June 30, are comprised of the following: City of Concord (see Note 8) Household Hazardous Waste Partners All Other Total Accounts Receivable Employee Computer Loans Receivable 2024 2023 $29,464,546 $27,657,109 989,068 948,222 2,940,602 920,367 $33,394,216 $29,525,698 The District provides loans to its employees for the purchase of personal computers. These loans are payable through payroll deductions of $100 per month until the loan is paid off. The interest rate associated with the loan is based on the most current Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) rate in effect at the time of loan execution. The maximum amount each employee may borrow is $2,000. The loans receivable balance, which is included in "All Other Accounts Receivable" above, are as follows as of June 30: Employee Computer Loans Additions Payments Total Loan Receivable Bank Escrow Deposit 2024 2023 $7,724 $10,212 11,213 9,901 (11,334) (12,389) $7,603 $7,724 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 with a balance of $103,648 at year- end, are listed as "All Other Accounts Receivable" in table above. 31 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 159 of 230 Page 54 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 4 - ASSESSMENT DISTRICTS RECEIVABLE The District established the Contractual Assessment District (CAD) program to help homeowners finance the cost of connecting to the District. The construction costs associated with the project within the program are capitalized and depreciated. Individual homeowners are assessed at an amount equal to their share of the construction costs and connection fee. The assessments, plus interest, are generally payable over 10 years. The CAD receivable balances at June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $621,248 and $720,859, respectively. The District also established the Alhambra Valley Assessment District (AVAD) to provide services to residents in the Alhambra Valley in Martinez. Residents have the choice to pay cash or finance the construction costs and connection fees. The AVAD receivable balances at June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $96,627 and $265,204, respectively. The District also established Septic to Sewer Financing (S2S) to provide low-cost financing to help homeowners connect to the public sewer system and properly abandon their septic tank. The program is open to residential property owners with private septic systems located near existing sewer mains within the District's service area.

C. 2018 Series A and B Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds On September 13, 2018, the District issued two Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds (Bonds). The 2018 Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series A (tax-exempt) and B (federally taxable) were issued for $15,135,000 and $4,315,000, respectively. The Bonds were issued to defease and refund all the District's outstanding obligations with respect to the $19,635,000 original principal amount of 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series A and all of the District's outstanding obligations with respect to the $34,490,000 original principal amount of 2009 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation, Series B, and pay costs issuing the Bonds. The refunding resulted in an overall debt service savings of $7,455,312. The net present value of the debt service savings is called an economic gain and amounted to $2,603,897. The two bonds total $19,450,000 and are secured by a pledge of tax and net revenues of the wastewater system. The outstanding bonds from direct borrowings related to business -type activities of $19,450,000 contain a provision that in an event of default, the U.S. Bank National Association (Trustee) has the right to accelerate the total unpaid principal amounts of the bonds. The official statement contains an event of default clause that changes the timing of the repayments of outstanding amounts to become immediately due if the District is unable to make payment. Principal payments began annually on September 1, 2020 and 2021 for the Series B and A Bonds, respectively, with semi-annual interest payments due on September 1 and March 1 of each year. Yields range from 1.39% to 2.34% and 2.62% to 3.12% for the Series A and Series B Bonds, respectively. During fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, the Series B Bonds were fully repaid. The outstanding balance of the Series A Bonds at June 30, 2024 amounted to $9,910,000. 37 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 165 of 230 Page 60 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT (Continued) D. 2021 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation On June 1, 2021, the District issued new Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation.

The first principal payment was due on March 1, 2022 and then September 1 of each year thereafter. Yield ranges from 0.05% to 0.62% for the Certificates. The outstanding balance at June 30, 2024 amounted to $27,935,000. E. Clean Water State Revolving Fund Loan The District entered into a contract in December 2021 to borrow funds from the State Water Resources Control Board. The funds are being used for the Solids Handling Improvement Project to rehabilitate and replace the sludge dewatering centrifuges, cake pumps, and furnace air pollution control equipment. The maximum loan amount is $173,105,000, of which the District has drawn $16,169,297. The loan bears interest at 0.9 percent per year and will accrue beginning with each disbursement. Repayments are scheduled to commence in July 2027 following the completion of the project for a term of 30 years. As of June 30, 2024, the District owed $16,169,297 on the loan. F. Compensated Absences The liability for vested vacation, compensatory time, and sick pay is recorded as an expense when earned. Depending on hire date and length of employment with the District, employees retain a vested interest between 25 and 40 percent of their sick time. Unused sick time may be applied towards pension service time and/or cashed out upon retirement. The changes in compensated absences were as follows for fiscal years ended June 30: Beginning Balance Adjustments Payments Ending Balance CuiTent Portion 2024 2023 S5,802,385 291,922 S6,272,875 ('184,948) (322,588) (285,542) S5,771,719 S5,802,385 S577,172 S580,239 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.

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 workers' compensation insurance. A. Insurance Coverage The District's insurance coverage is as follows: Type of Coverage Insurer All -Risk Property: Special Form Property Alliant Property Insurance Program Crime National Union Fire Ins.

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 policy is to maintain a reserve for claims of $1,500,000 which is equivalent to three claims at $500,000 per occurrence. The District's independent actuary has calculated its potential liability as of June 30, 2024 to be $1,775,711. 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. The latest report was dated December 23, 2022. For intervening years, the liability for uninsured claims is reviewed for adequacy based on claims activity during the intervening period. 39 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 167 of 230 Page 62 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 7 - RISK MANAGEMENT (Continued) For fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022, settlements have not exceeded insurance coverage.

Net Pension Liability, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions - The District reported net pension liability for its proportionate share of the net liability of the Plan in the amount of $36,556,805 for the year ended June 30, 2024. The District reported net pension liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability of the Plan in the amount of $37,772,326 for the year ended June 30, 2023. 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, 2023, 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, 2022 rolled forward to December 31, 2023 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, 2022, 2023, and 2024 were as follows: V Proportionate Share of the Plan Fiduciary Net Reporting Date for Proportion of the Proportionate Share Net Pension Liability as a Pension as a Percentage Employer under GASB Net Pension of Net Pension Covered Percentage of its Covered of the Total Pension 68 as of June 30 Liability (Asset) Liability (Asset) Payroll Payroll Liability 2022 22.039% ($53,543,789) $37,667,972 -142.15% 111.27% 2023 2.224% 37,772,326 40,424,238 93.44% 92.35% 2024 2.292% 36,556,805 41,133,132 88.87% 92.93% 42 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 170 of 230 Page 65 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 9 - PENSION PLANS (Continued) For the year ended June 30, 2024, the District recognized a pension expense of $15,971,322.

The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed employer and employee contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. For this purpose, only employer and employee 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 Plan 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 TPL as of December 31, 2023. 44 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 172 of 230 Page 67 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 9 - PENSION PLANS (Continued) The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined in 2023 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. These returns are combined to produce the long-term expected arithmetic rate of return for the portfolio by weighting the expected arithmetic real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage, adding expected inflation and subtracting expected investment expenses and a risk margin. 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: Long -Term Expected Target Arithmetic Real Asset Class Allocation 40ate of Return Large Cap U.S. Equity 10% 5.40% Small Cap U.S. Equity 3% 6.17% Developed International Equity 10% 6.13% , Emerging Markets Equity 9% 8.17% Core Fixed % 0.39% Short -Term Credit 4% -0.14% Cash and Equivalents 3% -0.73% Private Equity 15% 10.83% Private Credit 13% 5.93% Infrastructure 3% 6.30% Value Add Real Estate 5% 7.20% Opportunistic Real Estate 5% 8.50% Risk PaNy 3% 3.80% Hedge Funds 3% 2.40% Total 100% 5.6% NO, Changes in the assumed discount rate can have large effects on the measurement of the Total Pension Liability (TPL). Lower discount rates result in a higher TPL and higher discount rates result in a lower TPL. Because the discount rate does not affect the measurement of plan assets, small changes in the assumed discount rate can have significant changes in the Net Pension Liability (NPL). The table below illustrates the sensitivity of the NPL to changes in the actuarially assumed discount rate by one percent in either direction as reported at June 30, 2024: Miscellaneous 1% Decrease 5.75% Net Pension Liability (Asset) $105,880,485 Assumed Discount Rate 6.75% Net Pension Liability (Asset) $36,556,805 1% Increase 7.75% Net Pension Liability (Asset) ($20,263,520) 45 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 173 of 230 Page 68 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 9 - PENSION PLANS (Continued) B. 457 (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 (b). 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 (b) assets are held in trust with Mission Square Retirement (formerly ICMA- RC) for the exclusive benefit of the participants and are not included in the District's financial statements.

The long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of OPEB plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighing the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table: Expected Real Rate Asset Class Component Target Allocation of Return Global Equity 50.0% 4.56% Fixed Income 45.0% 0.78% Cash 5.0% -0.50% Total 100% Assumed Long -Term Rate of Inflation 2.50% Expected Long -Term Net Rate of Return, Rounded 5.25% Discount Rate - The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 5.25%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that District contributions will be made at rates equal to the actuarially determined contribution rates. Based on those assumptions, the OPEB plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected OPEB payments for current active and inactive employees and beneficiaries. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on OPEB plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total OPEB liability. :• November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 176 of 230 Page 71 of 114 CENTRAL CONTRA COSTA SANITARY DISTRICT NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS For the Years Ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 NOTE 10 - OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) PLAN (Continued) C.

Fee is per connection. *3 New customers in areas where wastewater pumping stations are needed to reach the District's gravity fed sewers are charged a Pump Zone Fee. Fee is per connection.

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.

Accordingly, v do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the District's internal control. 7 Will, A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the District's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses. In addition, because of inherent limitations in internal control, including the 'possibility of management override of controls, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected by such controls. Given these limitations during our audit, we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our engagement letter to the Deputy General Manager dated June 24, 2024, and in our email correspondence on November 11, 2024. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit. h r Significant Audit Matters Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices Accounting Policies — Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the District are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted, and the applicatioij of existing policies was not changed during the year, except as noted below. The following pronouncements became effective, but did not have a material effect on the financial statements: ♦ � IE� GASB 100 — Accounting for Changes and ror Corrections Unusual Transactions, Controversial or Emerging Areas - We noted no transactions entered into by the District during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period. Accounting Estimates - Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimates affecting the District's financial statements were: Estimated Fair Value of Investments: As of June 30, 2024, the District held approximately $46.1 million of cash and investments as measured by fair value as disclosed in Note 2 to the financial statements. Fair value is essentially market pricing in effect as of June 30, 2024. These fair values are not required to be adjusted for changes in general market conditions occurring subsequent to June 30, 2024.

We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimate and determined that it is reasonable in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Estimated Net OPEB Liability and OPEB-Related Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources: Management's estimate of the net OPEB liability is disclosed in Note 9 to the financial statements and is based on actuarial study determined by a consultant, which is based on the experience of the District. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimate and determined that it is reasonable in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Estimate of Depreciation: Management's estimate of the depreciation is based on useful lives determined by management. These lives have been determined by management based on the expected useful life of assets as disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the depreciation estimate and determined that it is reasonable in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. 04�hL� Estimate of Compensated Absences: Accrued compensated absences which are comprised of accrued vacation, holiday, and certain other compensating time is estimated using accumulated unpaid leave hours and hourly pay rates in effect at the end of the fiscal year as disclosed in Note 1 to the financial statements. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the accrued compensated absences and determined that it is reasonable irtelation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Disclosures — The financial statement disclosures are neutral,consistent, and clear. . ('0411 Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit. Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. We did not propose any audit adjustments that, in our judgement, could have a significant effect, either individually or in the aggregate, on the District's financial reporting process. Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely uncorrected misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. We have no such misstatements to report to the Board of Directors. Disagreements with Management For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit. 4 November 19, 2024 Regular FINANCE Committee Meeting Agenda Packet - Page 212 of 230 Page 107 of 114 Management Representations We have requested certain representations from management that are included in a management representation letter dated DATE. Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the governmental unit's financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants. Other Audit Findings or Issues We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the District's auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and of responses were not a condition to our retention. Other Matters We applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information that accompanies and supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the required supplementary information and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the required supplementary information. We were engaged to report on the supplementary information, which accompany the financial statements but are not required supplementary information. With respect to this supplemental information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements.
