TRUCKEE DONNER
Public Utility District
CONSENT
To: Board of Directors
From: Robert Mescher
Date: February 16, 2011
Subject: Authorize Annual Transfers from Facilities Fees to General Funds
1. WHY THIS MATTER IS BEFORE THE BOARD
Only the Board can authorize transfers from restricted facilities fees funds.
2. HISTORY
During the budget process, staff lists the planned capital projects for the year and declares
their funding source. Additionally, during the year the District makes system upgrades that are
eligible for reimbursement from the restricted facilities fees funds. Staff presents transfer
requests to the Board for authorization.
3. NEW INFORMATION
Attachment 1 is a list of projects that were constructed with general fund money that are
eligible for funding from facilities fees.
Attachment 2 is a five-year report showing the balance of facilities fees on deposit as of
December 31, 2010. AB 1600 requires that the District refund any facilities fees that are older
than five years, unless special circumstances exist where the money is held for pending large
projects. This report shows that in both the Electric Facilities Fees Fund and the Water
Facilities Fees Fund, the District does not have any funds older than five years.
4. FISCAL IMPACT
This action reimburses the electric and water general funds for facilities fees projects and
costs.
5. RECOMMENDATION
1) Transfer$601,168 from the Electric Facilities Fees Fund to the Electric General Fund.
2) Transfer$767,221 from the Water Facilities Fees Fund to the Water General Fund.
3) Accept the five-year report showing that the District is in compliance with AB 1600.

NOTE: If"Total amount available"is greater than"Amount collected over the last 5 years",then the District has facilities fees on hand that are greater than 5 years old.
If the amount of facilities fees on hand is greater than 5 years old,the District would have to either refund the money to customers or the Board would have to issue
a finding that the money greater than 5 years old was being held to pay for a specific project. The spreadsheet shows that the District does not have any electric or
water facilities fees on hand that are greater than 5 years old.
