<br />2.3 CURRENT EXPENDITURES AND SOURCES OF FUNDS
<br />
<br />Table 2 shows a budgetary level estimate of average historic expenditures for stormwater
<br />management related activities by the five entities in the Grand Valley. The costs in this table are
<br />averages of past years, but are believed to be representative of the "status quo" or current level of
<br />funding. These are budgetary level numbers (plus or minus 35%) for general comparison
<br />purposes.
<br />
<br />(Note: level of funding should not be confused with Level of Services although they are both
<br />reflective of the ability of an entity to respond to stormwater related problems.)
