3.DISCUSSION AND POSSIBLE ACTION ITEMS
a. Consider Approval of Unfunded Accrued Liability Pension Management
Policy 7.8
The Chief Financial Officer presented the new Pension Management Policy 7.8. He
stated that it addresses the District's unfunded accrued liability (UAL) with CalPERS,
which has been 70-75% funded over the past 13 years. The policy aims to establish a
long-term funding target of 85% and includes strategic tools such as prepaying annual
UAL payments, contributing from reserves, utilizing debt refinancing savings, and
potentially issuing pension obligation bonds. The policy provides flexibility in managing
the UAL while maintaining transparency. Its objectives include annual actuarial report
reviews, establishing a 115 trust, and signaling to creditors and ratepayers that the
District is proactively addressing its pension liability.
A motion was made by Director Goodrich, seconded by Director Smith, that the Board
of Directors adopt Unfunded Accrued Liability Pension Management Policy 7.8 as
submitted.
The motion carried by the following:
Ayes: Carrillo, Coats, Goodrich, Morales, Smith
Noes: None
Absent: None
b. Consider Approval of Fiscal Year 2024-25 Mid-Year Budget Revisions
The Chief Financial Officer presented the mid-year budget revisions, comparing actual
revenues and expenses to the adopted budget. He stated that water sales have
exceeded projections, leading to an increase in projected revenue. He reported that
the Reclamation fund is facing substantial cost increases due to unexpected
inefficiencies in the food waste-to-energy system. He stated that operating and capital
expenses are proposed to be increased by $3.3 million, which would necessitate a
$2.9 million withdrawal from reserves.
A motion was made by Director Goodrich, seconded by Vice Chairman Coats, that the
Board of Directors approve Fiscal Year 2024-25 Mid-Year Budget Revisions as
submitted.

Study to support the pretreatment program for the Sterling Natural Resource Center.
He noted that in March 2023, the Board adopted Sewer Ordinance No. 404 to
establish a pretreatment program for the Sterling Natural Resource Center (SNRC).
The current local limits were based on the City of San Bernardino's previous standards,
and now a Local Limits Study is needed to tailor the limits to the unique characteristics
of the service area. He reported that proposals were solicited, three were received,
and an evaluation committee of District staff selected Larry Walker Associates as the
best value.
A motion was made by Director Carrillo, seconded by Vice Chairman Coats, that the
Board of Directors authorize the General Manager/CEO to execute an agreement with
Larry Walker Associates for a local limit study, not to exceed $45,290 plus a 10%
contingency as submitted.
The motion carried by the following:
Ayes: Carrillo, Coats, Goodrich, Morales, Smith
Noes: None
Absent: None

BACKGROUND / ANALYSIS
East Valley Water District (District) is a performance-based organization, focused on
achievement of goals derived from the Strategic Plan and Five-Year Work Plan adopted by the
Board of Directors (Board). The Five-Year Work Plan is the framework of long-term goals
related to District infrastructure improvements, operations, administration, and community
engagement. Each year the Five-Year Work Plan is updated and used as a reference to develop
an annual work plan for the upcoming fiscal year.
With the adoption of the updated Strategic Plan in October 2024, the District celebrated the
completion of the Sterling Natural Resource Center, and started a new chapter focused on
replacing and maintaining aging infrastructure, while utilizing technology to further enhance
services to our ratepayers. The following five Pillars in the updated Strategic Plan are reflected
in the Five-Year Work Plan, and in the program goals and objectives being presented:
1. Implementing Effective Solutions
2. Sustainability, Transparency, and Accountability
3. Organizational Resiliency
4. Planning, Maintenance and Preservation of District Resources
5. Community Engagement, Advocacy, and Leadership
The draft goals and objectives for each program are included in Attachment A. Many of the
objectives are related directly to strategic initiatives identified in the Five-Year Work Plan.
District staff will provide a mid-year and year-end update on each department’s objectives
presented in the budget.

WASTEWATER COLLECTION
The Wastewater Collection program performs routine inspections, cleaning, repairs, and replacement of the District’s
230 miles of collection pipelines. The District’s collection system has been engineered to use best practice gravity
flow conveyance prior to treatment. California public health code mandates the District is responsible for inspection
of wastewater collection systems.
The pipeline inspection program uses a sewer inspection camera/transporter and closed-circuit television (CCTV)
technology. The videoing software allows the operator to document pipeline condition attributes and location
data for maintenance or replacement consideration. Along with videoing the collection pipeline, the Wastewater
Collection Program conducts a weekly sewer cleaning program using specialized equipment. The jetting program
ensures the entire system is cleaned within 24 months, and high maintenance areas are cleaned more regularly.
