Since interest <br />and bond retirement must be an integral'part of the District1s finnn- <br />cial proerLlm if it is to remain solvent, bond service must be included <br />as an-annunl cost.

Budget analyses of the'earning capacity of farms of the <br />Chino V:clley Irrigation District, o.ssluning a full w,~,t<er supply for <br />the o.creo.ge cropped, indicate that approximately $13,900 could be, <br />paid annually for irrigation water with the proj<ect in operation. <br />This would amoUnt to approximately ~5,50 per acre for the 2,538 <br />acres nssessed in the District-or a somewhat larger Llmount per <br />irrigated acre producing crops. This Llmount gives no credit for <br />income from the water delivered by the present system. District <br />officials and local residents of the area have eXDrcssed the ooinion <br />, . <br />that water users could pay ~5,OO per acre for water, including the <br />cost of operation and maintenance, Assuming that a compromise could <br />be obtained for ;)5.25 per acre, the District could pay, togeth<er with <br />some 20 cents per ncre of othGr income, an average of ~5.45 per ~cre <br />assessed. Bec~use of v~ri~tions in-water supply annual payments would <br />have to be varied from ye~r to year. <br /> <br />6 <br />
