This <br />loss was covered by the County Recycling Grant which typically subsidizes these operations. <br />The most significant change in operating income results compared to prior year occurred in the Water <br />Utility Fund. The decrease in Water Utility Fund operating income was due to a decrease in water <br />consumption as s a result of a late winter and wet summer compared to 2012, while water rates remained <br />the same as prior year. Water Utility Fund operating expense increases for personal service, supplies, <br />service charges, and depreciation also contributed to the decrease in operating income compared to the <br />prior year. <br />-13- <br />
