This analysis uses the “Amended Budget”, which consists of the adopted budget plus any prior year carryover appropriations , as well as budget adjustments approved through September 3 0 , 201 4 . The projections in this analysis are based on “Run -Rate” calculations unitizing historical trends for some accounts , while others are based on known or anticipate d spending by staff. The Costa Mesa Sanitary District (District ) Solid Waste and Liquid Waste F unds are both Enterprise Funds . These funds are operated as independent business ventures sharing one Board of Directors. Some ex penses of the District are ch arged entirely to a specific fund , while other expenses may be allocated to both funds based on a percentage. For example, the costs a ssociated with the District’s Board of Directors will be split between the funds equally. However, the cost of the trash pickup will be charged only to the Solid Waste F und. Based on the attached Expenditure Analysis , both the Solid Waste and Liquid Waste Funds are projected to have a minor budget surplus at J une 30, 201 5 as described below: S OLID W ASTE F UND The annual operating budget for the Solid Waste fund is $5,474 ,250 . The total year -to -date expenses are $922,386 , and staff estimates the total year -end expenses will be $5,3 70,600 resulting in a projected surplus of $10 3,650 . This projected surplus results primarily from unexpended funds in Personnel and the Special Programs. The following sections are intended to provide a summary of the more significant budget to actual changes anticipated b y staff a t year -end : PERSONNEL The District currently has two vacant positions, the Administrative Services Man a ger and a part -time Maintenance Worker. Both of these positions provide services to the Solid and Liquid Waste funds . T herefore , only a porti on of their costs are charged to the Solid Waste F und. The projected expenses for FY 2014 -15 assume that these positions will remain vacant at least six months of the fiscal year, thus creating a substantial savings in the salary and benefit accounts. Ad ditional ly , the District is realizing a savings in its “PERS Employee” account due to costs which w ere previously paid by the District , are now required to be paid by the employee for all new hires. The total projected savings in Personnel costs a t June 30, 201 5 is $6 7,600 . M & O The M & O accounts are projected to be under the amended budget by $1 ,250 .
