Subject: Contract Extension with Total Compensation Systems
SUMMARY:
In March 2011, the District entered into a professional services agreement with Total Compensation
Systems, Inc. for preparation of the "Actuarial Study of Retiree Health Liabilities". The March 2011 actuarial
valuation was completed so the District would be compliant with CaIPERS's requirements for the District to
participate in the California Employees Benefit Retirement Trust (CBERT). Under GASB 45, if an entity is a
member of a retirement trust, an actuarial valuation must be completed every two years. In order to be
compliant with the reporting requirements for CERBT, the District needed to complete an actuarial valuation
for the period ending June 30, 2011 and then complete an additional valuation for 2012 and 2013.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
That the Committee recommend the Board of Directors authorize staff to extend the current professional
services agreement with Total Compensation Systems, Inc. to complete a "roll-over" valuation for the years
2012 and 2013 at a cost not to exceed $1,400.
DISCUSSION:
In January 2011, the Board authorized a CERBT Program Agreement and Election of Yorba Linda Water
District to Prefund OPEB through PERS. As a member of CERBT, an agency is required to complete an
actuarial valuation every two years. In order for the District to continue contributing to the Trust, a current
actuarial valuation needs to be completed and submitted to CERBT. In April 2009, the District had its first
actuarial valuation completed for the periods ending June 30, 2009 and June 30, 2010. In order to comply
with the biennial valuation requirement, and to coincide with the CBERT valuation years, the District opted
to complete a new valuation for 2011 and then do a "roll-over" valuation for 2012 and 2013. The 2011
valuation was done by Total Compensation Systems, Inc., at a cost of $3,800. The price for the two year
roll-over valuation will be $1,400. Although the District already has a professional services agreement with
Total Compensation Systems, Inc., the cost of the roll-over valuation is greater than 10% of the original
contract, therefore, according to current purchasing procedures Board authorization is necessary.
PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S):
On January 26, 2011, the Board authorized the President to execute a CERBT Program Agreement and
Election of YLWD to Prefund Other Post Employment Benefits through CalPERS.

Subject: July 2011 & August 2011 Budget to Actual Results
DISCUSSION:
Attached are the District's budget to actual summary results for the Water Fund, Sewer Fund and a
combined statement for both funds pertaining to the reporting months of July 2011 and August
2011.
For the month of July 2011, the District revenue is trending below expectations due to lower water
consumption. Water operating revenue is 9.2% of annual budget, which is lower by approximately
2.6% from the historical trend for the first reporting month of the fiscal year.
Other Operating Revenue is 36.58% of annual budget for the month of July. The District received
$93,568 from Vista Del Verde II, LLP for 144 connections pertaining to Tract 17105 - Area T that
was not expected or budgeted.Variable water costs as a percentage of budget are higher than
operating revenues as a result of purchasing more import water prior to Metropolitan Water District
of Southern California's 7.5% rate increase, which takes effect on January 1, 2012.
Salary related expense are lower than expected because approximately half of the expenses paid in
July actually related to June and were accrued into the prior fiscal year.The majority of the individual
supplies and services expenses are trending below or on budget, with the exception of Dues and
Memberships, where the 2011/12 memberships for LAFCO and CSDA hit in July, and Non-Capital
Equipment, where work was completed on the Walnut PRS's A/C unit and purchases of traffic clip-
on signs.
In the month of July Sewer Other Operating Revenue was 131.9% of annual budget. Funds
received included $20,590 due to the invoicing FOG Fees for the year and $54,235 from Vista del
Verde II,LLP for 146 sewer connections pertaining to Tract 17105 - Area T which were not
expected nor budgeted.
For the month of August 2011, the District revenue is trending below expectations with the same
scenario as in the month of July. Water operating revenue is 18.4% of annual budget, which is
lower by approximately 5% from the normal trend for the second reporting month of the fiscal year.
Through the month of August customer demand is down by 14% year to date.Variable water costs
as a percentage of budget are also higher than operating revenues.
The other expenses and revenues are generally below or are on target with the budget projections
with the exception of the Dues and Memberships, which was previously described and Insurance,
where $193,399 was paid to JPIA for the District's annual premium.
Sewer revenue for the reporting months is trending equal to that reported in the prior fiscal year
through the month of August. The effect in sewer revenue, in regards to the new accounts
transferred from the City of Yorba Linda, will not be reflected the statements till the month of
September 2011.
PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S):
On August 8, 2011 the Committee reviewed, received and filed the June 30, 2011 Budget to Actual
Results.

Prepared By: Delia Lugo, Senior Accountant
Subject: Investment Reports through August 2011
SUMMARY:
Government Code Section 53607, et, seq., requires the person delegated to invest funds to make a
quarterly report of the investments to the legislative body.
DISCUSSION:
Staff is submitting the July 2011 and August 2011 Monthly Investment Reports for the Committee's
review. The Investment Portfolio Report presents the market value and percent yield for all the
District investments by institution. The Investment Report Summary includes budget and actual
interest and average term portfolio information as well as market value broken out by reserves
categories. The total yield for the month ending July 2011 decreased to 1.01%. Contributing to the
decrease on the overall yield was the transfer of $1,200,000 from CaITRUST Short Term account,
where the yield was 0.52%, to a new account established with the Local Agency Investment Fund
(LAIF), where the yield on investment is 0.38%. In addition, the yield in CaITRUST's Medium Term
fund decreased from 1.36% to 1.31 and the yield decreased form 0.20% to 0.16% for
investments held in the Well Fargo Money Market account.
The overall decrease in the investment balance from the previous month is $522,367, mostly due to
the District's biannual replenishment assessment payment to the Orange County Water District in
the amount of $1,071,671. In the month of July, staff initiated transfers between some water funds.
One transfer was completed when reconciling Capital and Operating, where Capital reimbursed the
Operating Fund for items paid out of Operating that were Capital-related. The other transfer was
necessitated by a gradual draining of the Reserve for Debt Service, as staff was allocating to the
reserve the same $0.29 per unit sold that had been determined in 2008, when the District was
selling much more water. The fiscal year that calculation was determined the District sold 10.6
million units, but in FY 10/11, only 7.8 million units were sold. With less units sold, a higher
percentage of what we make on each unit needs to be allocated to this reserve. This transfer is a
catch-up for the decreases in the fund over the last two fiscal years, and going forward staff will
allocate to the Reserve for Debt Service based on the prior years' actual consumption. The result of
those transfers has the following effect:
. an increase in the Water Operating Reserve of $651,000
. an increase in the Reserve for Debt Service of $645,000
. a decrease in Water Capital Project Reserve of $1,373,250
The total yield for the month ending August 2011 decreased from 1.01 % to 0.96% predominantly as
a result of the yield in CaITRUST's Medium Term fund decreasing from 1.31 % to 1.21 %.The overall
increase in the investment balance between the months of July and August is $23,500. Some of the
larger balance changes include an increase of $554,000 in Water Operating Fund due to larger
summer revenues, an increase of $243,000 in Reserve for Debt Service as a result of the monthly
transfer based on units sold, and a decrease of $825,000 in the 2008 COP Revenue Bond due to
spending on CIP projects.
PRIOR RELEVANT BOARD ACTION(S):
