<br />As displayed in the table above, each of the individual enterprise funds was able to report positive
<br />operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the Recycling Fund. However,
<br />nonoperating grants and investment earnings offset most of the operating loss.
<br />Overall operating revenues totaled $8,502,169 in 2025, compared to $7,656,188 in the prior year.
<br />Increases in households and utility rates, along with more consumption, contributed to the change over
<br />the prior year. Overall operating expenses totaled $6,777,167 in 2025, compared to $6,394,996 in the
<br />prior year. Spending was up for personal services, supplies, sewer utility disposal charges, and
<br />depreciation, with an increase in population and households serviced by the City's utility system.
