Ms. Delia Lugo introduced Ms. Khanh Phan from Raftelis. Ms. Phan

planning and financial policies; and the purpose of reserves. She also
Minutes of the YLWD Board of Directors Workshop Meeting Held June 19, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. 2
covered the purpose of different reserve types and debt coverage ratios.
Ms. Phan then summarized the District’s current water related reserve
types and existing minimum targets, and suggested water related reserve
types and target ranges. Discussion regarding the relationships between
reserve levels, debt coverage ratios, and credit agency ratings followed.
Ms. Phan reviewed the purpose of a debt management policy, imitations
on debt issuance, and debt coverage ratio requirements and target
ranges. She then provided an overview of water related key assumptions
and escalation factors as related to establishing a financial plan.
Discussion ensued regarding projected personnel, water supply, and other
operating expenses. Projected water sales scenarios, historical and
anticipated conservation behavior, and a comparison of water capital
improvement plan (CIP) budgets were also discussed. Ms. Phan briefly
summarized the District’s historical and current debt and the District’s
financial plan model. Further discussion regarding the District’s reserve
levels, debt coverage ratios, and debt management policy followed. Ms.
Phan then reviewed each of the charts in the model’s dashboard in detail
and noted that the projected data reflected no increase in revenue through
FY22. She explained that the model would be updated as new data
became available for the purposes of evaluating the District’s financial
plan. Ms. Phan then demonstrated the model and the projected impact of
various inputs. Discussion ensued regarding expenses in the draft FY18
budget, expenditures that qualify for capitalization, and the need for
updating the District’s Asset Management Plan (AMP). Ms. Phan
continued demonstrating various components of the model as requested
by the Board.
Mr. Terry Harris (resident) commented on the Ad Hoc Citizens Advisory
Committee’s recommendations in relation to the District’s finances,
making the model available to the public, the suggested level of debt
coverage, issuing a refund to customers, updating the AMP, and the need
for studying budget based water rate structures.
The Board discussed potentially deferring certain expenditures included in
the draft FY18 budget, the importance of having a strategic plan, water
reserve balances, and funding for CIP. Ms. Phan manipulated the model
using inputs requested by the Board. The Board further discussed
deferring and/or eliminating certain expenditures in the draft FY18 budget
and requested a detailed report of supplies and services of same. The
Board also requested a printout of each of the tables from the model.
Discussion followed regarding costs associated with pending litigation,
further analysis of the draft supplies and services budget for FY18, and
the timeline for final review and adoption. Ms. Phan continued
manipulating the model using various inputs requested by the Board.
Discussion ensued regarding the administrative penalty reserve, reserve
levels, unfunded accrued liabilities, and the benefits of establishing a rate
stabilization reserve.
Minutes of the YLWD Board of Directors Workshop Meeting Held June 19, 2017 at 4:00 p.m. 3
Ms. Cindy Botts indicated that the requested reports would be provided to
the Board promptly. She noted that the draft FY18 budget financial
summaries would be presented to the Board at the next regular meeting
and that any requested changes would be incorporated into the fully
illustrated document. Mr. Andrew Gagen was tasked with looking into the
ramifications of dropping out of pending litigation. No other major
concerns related to the draft FY18 budget or suggested reserve levels
were raised.

AGENDA REPORT
Meeting Date: August 22, 2017
To:Board of Directors
From:Marc Marcantonio, General
Manager
Presented By:Delia Lugo, Finance Manager Dept:Finance
Prepared By:Kelly McCann, Senior
Accountant
Subject:Cash and Investment Report for Period Ending July 31, 2017
SUMMARY:
Government Code Section 530607, et. seq., requires the person delegated to invest funds to make
monthly report of investments to the legislative body.
DISCUSSION:
The Cash & Investment Portfolio Report presents the market value and percent yield for all District
investments by institution. The Cash & Investment Summary Report includes budget and actual
interest and average term portfolio information as well as market value broken out by reserve
categories. The Fair Value Measurement Report categorizes investments with the fair value
hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles.
The total yield for the month ending July 31, 2017 is 1.13%.
The overall decrease in the investment balance from the previous month is approximately
$1,271,000. A large portion was due to the Conservation Reserve decrease of $1,105,552 for the
Board of Directors approved Conservation Credit applied to active water customer connections, and
a decrease in the restrictive 2017A Acquisition Fund of $334,764 to pay Fairmont Booster Pump
Station capital project costs. The Water Operating Fund increased by $60,415 and the Sewer
Operating Fund increased by $125,662, due to a positive net effect between operating revenues
and expenses through the reporting month of the fiscal year.
STRATEGIC PLAN:
FR 1-F: Continue to Record and Report the Fairly Stated Financial Activities of the District in a
Timely and Transparent Manner to the Board of Directors and Member Agencies

1.Minutes of the YLWD/City Council Joint Advisory Committee meeting held
on March 13, 2017.
The YLWD/City Council Joint Advisory Committee approved the minutes of the
March 13, 2017 meeting.
DISCUSSION ITEMS
2.Drought Response, Water Conservation/Administrative Penalty Ordinances, and
Community Outreach
Engineering Manager Steve Conklin reported that the drought was officially over and
there are currently no watering restrictions.
Brett Barbre, Municipal Water District of Orange County (MWDOC) Director, spoke
about the record runoff in CA. and said the Colorado system was well above
average. MWD will probably end up with 2.5 million acre feet of water in storage.
Director Phil Hawkins stated that the District gets 70% of its water from the ground
and buys 30% import water from MWDOC.
3.District Budgeted Positions for FY 2018
Engineering Manager Steve Conklin reported there is no longer a conservation
department since there is no conservation program. He also stated that the Board
approved an Assistant General Manager position and the District is currently
advertising for it.
4.Current Water Conservation Legislation
President Miller stated that the Governor’s Executive Order B-37-16 – Making
Water Conservation a California Way of Life, was finalized in April 2017. He
explained how the Order would be implemented and that it would no longer be a
percentage reduction, instead it would be budget based and depend on the number
of people per household. Mr. Miller said that it was more of an equitable and locally-
controlled approach.
Councilwoman Beth Haney commented on the accounting and enforcement
complications it would create and asked how the District would administer it.
YLWD/CC Joint Advisory Committee Minutes June 12, 2017
Page 3 of 3
Mr. Miller agreed that it was a significant administrative workload and he hoped the
new Assistant General Manger would assist with the accounting complexities. He
said that the District would be looking ahead strategically, discuss in next year’s
budgeting process and include it in their 5-year plan.
A long discussion ensued among the committee members about the current water
conservation legislation.
5.City Sewer Easements
Engineering Manager Conklin stated that in 2011 the City transferred ownership of
its sewers to the Yorba Linda Water District, including any existing Tract Map
easements. The District is experiencing issues with maintenance of a sewer where
a homeowner has a fence or has built something over the easement. There is a
gray area as far as what rights, entitlements or limitations the District has in these
situations.
Director Hawkins indicated that their main concern was to determine if a
homeowner has an existing city permit to build over an easement.
City Manager Pulone said that the City would be happy to provide whatever
historical information it has and he would make sure staff was available to meet
with the District.
6.City Council Actions to Vacate Easements in Underfunded Landscape Maintenance
Assessment District (LMAD) Zones
City Manager Pulone summarized the Council actions in relation to the vacating of
easements in underfunded Landscape Maintenance Assessment District Zones.
Director Hawkins provided a brief report from the Orange County Sanitation District
Board and said that a food processing plant at the east end of the City is
significantly behind on payment of their sewer fees.
7.Future Meeting Dates and Agenda Items
The Committee agreed to meet again on September 18 at 4:00 p.m. No additional
items for the next Agenda were discussed.
ADJOURNMENT
City Manager Pulone adjourned the meeting at 4:53 p.m. to the next Yorba Linda Water
