ENTERPRISE FUNDS OVERVIEW
<br />The City maintains several enterprise funds to account for services the City provides that are financed
<br />primarily through fees charged to those utilizing the service. This section of the report provides you with
<br />an overview of the financial trends and activities of the City's enterprise funds, which include the Water,
<br />Sewer, Street Light, Recycling, and Storm Water Utility Funds.
<br />The utility funds comprise a considerable portion of the City's activities. We understand that the City is
<br />proactive in reviewing these activities on an ongoing basis and we want to reiterate the importance of
<br />continually monitoring these operations. Over the years, we have emphasized to our city clients the
<br />importance of these utility operations being self-sustaining, preventing additional burdens on general
<br />governmental funds. This would include the accumulation of net position for future capital improvements
<br />and to provide a cushion in the event of a negative trend in operations.

<br />$ 1,299,697
<br />In total, the net position of the City's enterprise funds increased by $1,299,697 during the year ended
<br />December 31, 2022. The increase in net position is primarily from connection fees and capital
<br />contributions recognized in the current year.
<br />The increase in the net investment in capital assets portion of net position includes the City's use of
<br />resources for infrastructure improvements in the current year, along with contributions from developers,
<br />which was partially offset by current year depreciation. The City's use of resources for infrastructure
<br />reduced the unrestricted portion of net position. The unrestricted portion of net position was also
<br />negatively impacted by the market adjustment on investments recognized in the current year that more
<br />than offset the current year increase from operations.
