Operating Costs <br /> The Cash Flow Model includes projected increases in operating and maintenance costs. <br /> These projections include the need for significant additional personnel over the next few <br /> years to oversee the delivery of the major capital improvements program and new facilities. <br /> Projections of operating costs for existing and new facilities are also included. <br /> Cash Flow Model Results and Analysis, Rate Structure <br /> The Cash Flow Model extends beyond the initial five year period (to 2030)to illustrate that <br /> the Financial Plan has long-term viability.This long term perspective is important because <br /> near-term debt is issued for up to 30 years and further capital projects and subsequent debt <br /> will extend well beyond 2011.Rates and tap fee increases have been approved for 2007 and <br /> 2008. Rates and fees beyond 2008 have not yet been adopted by the City,and are shown as <br /> representative of the rates and fees required for Aurora Water to meet its currently projected <br /> operating and capital needs and current financial management goals.Any rate and fee <br /> structures reported beyond 2008 must therefore be considered as preliminary and subject to <br /> change as future capital project investments are adjusted to meet the City's needs and City <br /> Council takes actions on any adjustments to revenue sources that may be needed. <br /> Attached to this report for reference is a portion of Aurora Water's cash flow model,for the <br /> time period 2007-2040. <br /> Cash Flow Requirements <br /> The PWP has developed monthly, quarterly,and annual estimates of required cash flow for <br /> the design and construction of the pipeline and pump station projects.Anticipated annual <br /> cash flow requirements are summarized in Table 2 below. <br /> TABLE 3.Annual Cash Flow Requirements for PWP Pipeline and Pump Station Bid Packages($million),rounded to the nearest <br /> $0.01 million <br /> Budgeted 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 Period <br /> Cost Total <br /> Bid Package E-Pumping Stations 1,2,&3 <br /> $67.00 $0.28 $3.94 $0.96 $17.84 $30.85 $13.13 $67.00 <br /> Bid Package G-Conveyance Pipeline Segment 1 <br /> $83.82 $0.18 $1.74 $11.92 $40.22 $25.61 $4.15 $83.82 <br /> Bid Package H-Conveyance Pipeline Segment 2 <br /> $69.18 $0.17 $2.33 $0.04 $42.73 $18.94 $4.97 $69.18 <br /> Bid Package I-Conveyance Pipeline Segment 3 <br /> $45.91 $0.12 $1.42 $24.41 $17.17 $2.79 - $45.90 <br /> Total by Year $265.91 $0.75 $9.43 $37.33 $117.96 $78.19 $22.25 $265.91 <br /> Cumulative Total $0.75 $10.18 $47.51 $165.47 $243.66 $265.91 <br /> *Includes design, construction, construction management, and engineering services during construction. <br /> 28 <br />
