LOCATION MAP
DISTRICT P R O F I L E
Located in southern-most Solano County along the northeast interior of the San Pablo Bay, the
Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District (VSFCD) is a special district created by an Act of the
California State Legislature May 19, 1952. The District is not coterminous with the City of Vallejo,
and serves an area slightly larger encompassing unincorporated County areas, and Mare Island.
VSFCD's net overall service area covers approximately thirty-six square miles.
VSFCD provides uninterrupted wastewater collection, treatment and disposal, and storm water
transmission and pollution control services, generally on a 24-hour basis, to all customer
connections within its boundary. The District owns 436 miles of sewer main and 226 miles of
storm water main and channel, operates 35 wastewater pump stations together with 9 storm
water pump stations, operates a secondary treatment wastewater treatment plant and manages
biosolids disposal through District owned land on Tubbs Island in Sonoma County. The District
mal<es beneficial use of its biosolids disposed through providing farming fertilizer for wheat crops.
The District also protects lands and inhabitants from flooding damage through its storm drainage
systems. Several of the storm drainage basins drain into Lake Dalwigk, a District owned storage
facility that appeals aesthetically with its park setting and provides marsh habitat for salamanders,
frogs, grasses, birds and other ecologically compatible wildlife.
The District services approximately 38,000 accounts that equate to approximately 48,000 dwelling
units. Dwelling units exceed accounts due to multi-residential apartments and mobile home parks.
VSFCD's service area is predominantly residential with low strength commercial establishments
and professional offices. The District does not contain any large industrial users; however, there
are several significant dischargers such as Six Flags Discovery Kingdom and certain high density
residential.
The District is governed by an eight member Board of Trustees, composed of the seven members
of the Vallejo City Council and one member from the Solano County Board of Supervisors.
Accordingly, the District is a component unit of the City of Vallejo. The Board sets policy for the
District and appoints the District Manager and Treasurer who serve at the pleasure of the Board.
The District Manager is the chief administrative official responsible for the District's day-to-day
operations in accordance with Board policies, approved budget and legal and regulatory
compliance. The Treasurer is charged with cash and investment management in accordance with
CA law, policy, and general direction.

California statutes require that VSFCD issue annually a report on its financial
position and results of operations, and that this report be audited by independent
certified public accountants. The accounting firm of Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Co.,
LLP, performed the audit and issued their unqualified opinion located at the front
of the financial section of this report. Management's discussion and analysis
(MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor's report and provides a
narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements.
MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction
with it.
Management of the District is responsible for establishing and maintaining a
system of internal accounting control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates
and judgments by management are made to assess the expected benefits and
related costs of control procedures. The objectives of a system of internal control
are to provide management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that
assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and
that transactions are executed in accordance with management and board
authorization and are properly recorded to permit the preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. We
believe that the District's internal accounting control techniques and procedures
adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance that financial
transactions are propedy recorded.
DISTRICT S T R U C T U R E
The Board of Trustees approves the District's audit and budget, and certain
financial information must also be submitted to the State Controller's Office as
well as the County of Solano. Like financial accountability, the District is also
subject to other forms of accountability such as open meeting laws established by
California's Ralph M. Brown Act and a standing Citizens Advisory Committee.
Citizens are welcome and encouraged to attend meetings, ask questions and
voice opinions.
i
DISTRICT S T R U C T U R E (Continued)
Bi-annually, the Board adopts a user-fee based budget to serve as the approved financial plan.
The District utilizes sanitary sewer, upper lateral, and storm drainage fee ordinances to authorize
rates required to fund the District's operations and capital programs. The budget is used as a key
control device (1) to ensure Board approval for amounts set for operations and capital projects, (2)
to monitor expenses and project progress and (3) as compliance that approved spending levels
have not been exceeded. All operating activities and capital activities of the District are included
within the approved budget, and project length financial plans are adopted for all capital projects.
Financial policy supports the fiduciary responsibility for the proper safekeeping and custody of
assets. Financiai management must follow various requirements set forth by law, accounting
principles, ordinance, regulatory agencies, and covenants. The District utilizes six financial
related programs for the administration of operating goals and objectives. These programs are
the Cash and Investment Management Program, the Utility Billing and Customer Service
Program, the Debt Management Program, the Capital Assets Management Program, the
Purchasing Program, and the Financial Reporting Program. Each of these programs plays an
integral role in connection with the financial operations ofthe District.
Utility Billing and Customer Service Program: Particulady in economic downturns, it is essential to
bill and collect revenues and ensure timely and consistent practices to enforce collection and
prevent revenues from loss. The District bills its customers for wastewater and storm drainage
services directly to the property owner of record. Delinquent billings constitute a lien on the real
property served until the lien is paid or the property is sold therefore. High foreclosure activity
resulted in revenue losses that have been corrected through increasing the frequency of recording
liens to the property served. The new procedure reduced revenue losses generally to those that
cannot be prevented, such as those arising from personal bankruptcy, and was viewed favorably
by credit rating agencies who raised the District's credit rating from A to AA-.
One of the objectives of the customer service program is to provide a level of service that is
efficient, timely, consistent, and easy to understand. The District uses a written customer service
and billing procedure manual to ensure consistent level of service and application of billing policy,
including protection of confidential customer information. Planning is at the heart of a well
functioning billing program. The billing calendar is planned six months in advance to schedule the
numerous and many tasks necessary for a billing program that is timely and consistent.
Cash and Investments Management Program: The District revised its investments policy and
strategy to be more conservative through increasing its rating requirement for corporate
investments and investing in governments, minimum corporate position, and FDIC insured
investments. The billing and cash changes improve cash collections and protect investments.
Purchasing Program: The District has a purchasing program whose policy it is to perform
procurement activities in conformance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and with the
highest ethical standards of business conduct. The District will contract for the purchase, rent or
lease of materials, supplies and equipment, and secure services for the District's use with the
objective that such goods and services will be available at the proper time, in the proper place,
and in quantity, quality, and price so as to receive maximum value; and, to maintain inventories of
goods at minimum levels consistent with user department's needs to . allow for maximum
conservation of District funds. Materials and supplies costs have generally trended down in the
past 10 years, in part, due to effective purchasing. See financial trends information in the
statistical section of the CAFR.
ii
DISTRICT S T R U C T U R E (Continued)
Capital Assets and Debt Management Programs: Tine District performs and bills for services due
largely to the nature and existence of extensive capital assets, such as sanitary sewer and storm
drain collection systems, a wastewater treatment plant, and the necessary tools and equipment.
The District inventories capital assets and performs condition assessments as applicable, and
identifies items to include in the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). The CIP is a five-year rolling
plan to capture projects that take more than one year to complete. The District's debt burden per
capita decreased $28 from last year to $569. Though not considered high, the District's preferred
method is to finance capital projects on a pay-as-you-go basis. One of the major initiatives is to
perform a reserve analysis in connection with long-term financial planning to find the right balance
between rates, reserve levels, use of debt, and a consistent capital replacement program.
Cooperative Efforts: The District participates in significant cooperative efforts with the City of
Vallejo, Solano County public agencies, and utilities when common needs arise. Examples
include participation with City programs for street sweeping and odor control, and certain animal
control in unincorporated areas. The District works in conjunction with the Solano County
Disaster Council, a coalition of Solano County safety personnel, to adequately prepare and
respond in the event of an emergency. The District also participates in joint training efforts with
the greater area for emergency response and safety.
L O C A L ECONOMY
Solano County is centrally located between San Francisco and Sacramento, on Interstate 80.
The Sacramento River, San Pablo and Suisun Bays, and the Carquinez Strait are the vital water
transportation arteries that surround and serve the County.
The County encompasses
approximately 910 square miles consisting of 830 square miles of land and 80 square miles of
water. Approximately 128 square miles of the county, or 14 percent of the total land area, lies
within seven incorporated cities of Benicia, Dixon, Fairfield, Rio Vista, Suisun City, Vacaville, and
Vallejo. 95% of the County's residents live within the seven cities. The County has a rich history
as both the cities of Vallejo and Benicia have served as California's state capital during the
1850's. The County supports diversification of the local economy so that many activities
contribute to the County's prosperity and offer opportunities for residents to meet their needs.
Housing prices are extremely competitive with the larger metropolitan centers surrounding the
county, and certain segments of high school students consistently place in the top ten percent in
nationwide test scores. The County's General Plan Vision is founded on the principles of the
environment, the economy, and social equity.
For the City of Vallejo and correspondingly the District, growth is welcome so long as the growth is
consistent with plans set forth by the City. The City has plans for development of its waterfront
along the Mare Island Strait as well as redevelopment of its historic downtown. Given that the
region is an affordable and desirable place to live, with convenient commute to larger metropolitan
areas, trends show that populations and the related economics will continue to improve. Vallejo
boasts strong demographics such as high educational attainment, and a diverse and affluent
population. Vallejo scores high in many rankings of business climate, labor force, educational
opportunities, housing, transportation, and overall quality of life. These factors ensure a stable
customer base and source of revenues. With the annexation of Mare Island, the District has more
room for residential and commercial growth. Although on hold due to the recent economic
downturn, several new communities have been planned at Garth Ranch, Bordoni Ranch, Mariners
Cove, and others.

MAJOR INITIATIVES
WASTEWATER
Sanitary Sewer Management Program - Capitai: The District's comprehensive sanitary sewer
management program (SSMP) utilizes a system of cleaning, flow monitoring, and TV inspection
activities to help identify problem areas in sewer lines, and sewer lines in need of replacement.
The District budgets a recurring amount for pipe replacement and rehabilitation to remove sources
of inflow & infiltration (l&l) into the sanitary sewer system to reduce or eliminate sewer overflows.
Sewer mains and laterals are prioritized on an ongoing basis using maintainability, potential of
blocl<ages, and structural integrity as the main criteria.
The projects below are some of the more significant l&l reduction and conveyance improvement
projects currently within the CIP or recently completed. The eight projects are for the replacement
of leaky easement sewer lines, a pump station refurbish, and a pump station to replace multiple
private pump stations. Lines and pipes scheduled for replacement are predominantly deteriorated
clay pipes that will be replaced with 8" HDPE pipe through pipe-bursting.
Wilson Avenue Sewer Improvements
Benson Street Sewer Improvements
Lower Lateral Replacement Project
14* Street Parallel Sewer
46 Alabama Street Sewer Replace
732 Alabama Street Sewer Replace
Sears Point Wet Well
Cypress Central Pump Station
Sanitary Sewer Management Program - Operating: The O&M portion of the SSMP consists of a
line maintenance program that is both preventative and predictive, and a fats-oils-grease (FOG)
program that is designed to reduce blockages through regulating FOG at its source. Preventative
line maintenance consists of high pressure cleaning and root removal in lines where known
problems exist. Hot spot lines can be cleaned more frequently, such as those with heavy FOG
concentrations. The District also follows a predictive approach to line maintenance through field
observation, computer modeling, and TV inspections. The District uses information that it gathers
to determine the best approach to either maintain lines or prioritize them for replacement.
Soiar Project: The District completed and placed in sen/ice a solar energy project to power the
largest pump station located at Sears Point. The solar field was good space utilization covering
the landscaped area atop an underground storage tank, approximately one-half acre. The system
consists of 744 photovoltaic modules coupled with two inverters rated 135,000 and 75,000 watts.
The combined inverters are rated at approximately 230,000 watts DC. The system will generate
approximately 350,000 kilowatt hours per year and power roughly 70% of the pump station's
electricity needs. System payback is approximately 10 years with a 25 year lifespan. The District
installed strong site security systems consisting of vibration fencing, video cameras, high voltage
lights, alarms, and a two foot deep trench to protect its investment from theft or vandalism.
STORM WATER
Stonn Drain Master Plan Projects: Given the neariy built out nature of the District, there are no
new flooding problems to identify. Tasks of the storm drain master plan included data collection,
flooding site visits, GIS mapping, computer modeling, and technical analysis of the above. These
tasks resulted in a prioritization of flooding problems and solutions structured into a 15-year capital
improvement plan. Various master plan projects are scheduled for construction as part of the
storm water CIP, e.g., the District eliminated a storm drain on Carison Street that discharged onto
private property. The system is now connected to a large storm drain on Lemon Street.
iv
MAJOR INITIATIVES (Continued)
Storm Drainage Rate Equity Study: The District conducted a storm drainage rate equity study that
determined that the current flat rate billing system does not take into account pollutant and runoff
loadings contributed to the system, and is therefore inequitable. The Citizens Advisory Committee
completed their review of the study and recommended proceeding with implementation.
Wliite Slough Project: The District and the Army Corps of Engineers have been jointly working on
a project known as White Slough. The project is to alleviate tidal and fluvial flooding caused by
White Slough and Austin Creek by utilizing the slough as a detention basin for floodwaters from
Austin Creek during the winter months. White Slough is a marsh wetland area situated between
the Napa River and the City of Vallejo that is bisected by Highway 37. The project includes
construction of enlarged concrete box culverts with powered, self-regulating flap gates under
Highway 37 to maintain water surface elevation in the slough and to allow for increased tidal
exchange during the dry season. Other improvements include additional culverts, floodwall and
levee modifications, and construction of a regulating one-way weir on Austin Creek to improve
drainage and maintain the Creek's freshwater habitat. Design for this project is nearly complete,
and like the Lemon Street Channel project below, costs have risen significantly. The District must
streamline the project to achieve flood control goals while reducing costs.
Lake Dalwigk Detention Basin: Lake Dalwigk is a flood detention basin maintained by the
District. Thick growths of tules have made vegetation control in the lake increasingly difficult, thus
reducing flood detention volume and degrading the habitat value of the lake. The Lake Dalwigk
Habitat Enhancement Project will remove most of the tule growth from the lake and create a lower
level outlet, 3 ft lower than the existing outlet, which will allow drying out of the lake in summer for
maintenance. The lake will be re-graded and most of the tules' root mass will be removed. The
re-grading will create a low flow channel and several wetlands where varying hydraulic conditions
will foster different types of vegetation and create a more varied habitat.
UPPER LATERAL
Upper Lateral Program: The Upper Lateral Program is an innovative program whose purpose is
to reduce inflow & infiltration, l&l, through replacing leaky upper laterals. The upper lateral is the
line that connects private property structures to the sewer main under the street. The District
benefits through l&l reduction while the customer benefits through receiving a replacement upper
lateral at reduced or no cost. The program is funded from charges to all customers at $1.38 per
month similar to an insurance policy. A customer applies for the program and upon approval
makes the arrangements and initially pays for the replacement of the upper lateral. The customer
then submits the receipts and receives reimbursement from the District. The upper lateral
program has been very popular and cost effective since its implementation in 1994. The intent of
the Upper Lateral Program, and hence the ongoing need, is to systematically replace every leaky
lateral in the District thereby eliminating I&l into the sewer system from laterals.
ADMINISTRATIVE
Long Term Financial Planning: In the Spring of 2012, the District started a project for long term
financial planning. The goal of long term financial planning is to find a balance of rates, reserves,
and pay-as-you-go capital financing without the issuance of new debt. An important aspect of the
project will be a quantitative analysis to determine an adequate level of reserves. Capital assets
and line replacements will be scheduled out to determine future needs and costs. The project
when complete will be updated with each new budget.
V
MAJOR INITIATIVES (Continued)
Records Management Program: The District has embarl<ed on a project to develop and enable a
comprehensive records management program to expand-on and automate the current program.
The goals of the program are to achieve effective document retention, archiving, and destruction
compliant with local, state, and federal laws, and records management with discovery capabilities
to enhance compliance, reduce litigation discovery risks, improve employee productivity, and
lower costs. The project addresses retention and management of business records kept in paper
and electronic format, including semi-structured, electronic records for e-mails and attachments,
unstructured electronic records for shared document files, and structured electronic records for
application databases. Project implementation includes five phases,(1) assessment, (2) policy
development, (3) litigation preparedness including readiness and holds, (4) solution architecture
design and data mapping, and (5) communications, training, and audit. The first two phases are
complete with three remaining.
OTHER INFORMATION
Department Focus: This year's focus has been on improving the affordability of our sewer service
charges to more of our customers by promoting our Reduced Rate Program. The Reduced Rate
Program is open to all customers of the District who are eligible for PG&E's CARE Program.
Simply complete an application, provide proof of participation in the CARE program, and that's it!
The Reduced Rate Program is 10% off the standard rate. The District has added over 250 new
reduced rate participants in just a few short months and will continue to promote the program to
expand its use to as many eligible customers as possible.
Awards: The District is the recipient of many awards of excellence at the local, state and national
levels for maintaining an efficient, well run operation. These awards are received from the local
chapter of the California Water Environment Association (CWEA), the state CWEA, the national
Water Environment Federation, and the National Association of Clean Water Agencies. Awards
received typically are for plant of the year, collection system of the year. Burke award for safety,
excellence in management recognition, and awards for individual achievements.
For the fiscal year 2011, the District received the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in
Financial Reporting for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report from the Government Finance
Officers Association of the United States and Canada. We believe the current Report for 2012
conforms to Certificate of Achievement program requirements and have submitted it for an award.
Acknowledgments:
In submitting this June 30, 2012 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report,
sincere appreciation is expressed to the Trustees of VSFCD for their support, to the members of
the Finance and Administrative staff, and the members of all other departments that provided
information and ideas and participated in the preparation of this report.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Trustees
Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District
Vallejo, California
We have audited the accompanying basic financial statements of Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District, a
component unit of the City of Vallejo, California, as of and for the years ended June 30, 2012 and 2011. These
basic fmancial statements are the responsibility of Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to fmancial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by
the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to
obtaui reasonable assurance about whether the fmancial statements are free of material misstatement. A n audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the fmancial statements.
An audit also includes assessuig the accounting principles used and the significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the basic fmancial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the fmancial
position of Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District, as of June 30, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its
operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America, as well as accounting systems prescribed by the California State Controller's office
for special districts.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 5, 2012 on
our consideration of the District's intemal control over financial reporting .and our tests of its compliance with
certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that,
report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the
results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over fmancial reporting or on
compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit perfoimed in accordance with Government Auditing
Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's
discussion and analysis and schedule of funding progress of other post-employment benefits plan, as presented in
the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a
part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who
considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an
appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the
required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and
comparuig the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial
statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic fmancial statements. We do not
express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us
with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2012 and 2011
General
The following overview of the financial activities of the Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District
summarizes changes in the District's basic financial statements that begin on page 8. Basic
financial statements consist of the Statements of Net Assets, Statements of Revenues and
Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Assets, Statements of Cash Flows and Notes to Basic
Financial Statements. The main purpose of these statements is to provide the reader with
sufficient information to assess whether or not the District's overall financial position has improved
or deteriorated. Increases or decreases in net assets over time are an indicator of the District's
overall financial health and should be considered together with management's short and long-term
plans for prospectively financing programs and services. The statistical section of this report
contains a table of changes in position in net assets presented on a ten-year basis.
The Statements of Net Assets include all District assets and liabilities and provide information
about the nature and amounts of investments in resources (assets) and obligations to creditors
(liabilities). These Statements provide data for calculating analytical review measures such as
rate of return, capital structure, and liquidity. Revenues and expenses are accounted for in the
Statements of Revenues and Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Assets. These statements
measure the success of District operations for the year and determine cost recovery through user
fees and other charges, profitability, and credit worthiness. Lastly, the Statements of Cash Flows
provide information about District cash receipts and disbursements and net changes in cash that
result from operating activities, non-capital financing activities, capital financing activities and
investing activities. Thus, Statements of Cash Flows show sources and uses of cash.
The format of the District's financial statements is in accordance with business-type activities
known as enterprise funds. Enterprise funds are self-supporting funds that charge fees to users
to cover the costs of operation, maintenance and recurring capital replacement (OM&R) similar to
the accounting used by private sector companies. Enterprise funds report on the accrual basis of
accounting recognizing all assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses applicable as o f t h e financial
statement date. Although the District separately issues its own financial report, the District is a
component unit of the City of Vallejo by nature of the composition of the Board. Accordingly, the
governing body of the District, the Board of Trustees, is substantively the same as the governing
body ofthe primary government, the Vallejo City Council ofthe City of Vallejo..

The Statements of Net Assets reflect debt repayment for each of the fiscal years 2011-12 and
2010- 11 with refinancing of debt in 2010-11. Capital assets increased for each of the fiscal years
2011- 12 and 2010-11 for capital assets constructed and for capital contributions from developers,
but decreased on a net basis after depreciation. Changes in net assets restricted for capital
improvements represent net increases (decreases) in connection fees collected or reimbursed
through debt issuance. Changes in unrestricted net assets reflect swings due to debt issuance
and the utilization of cash to construct capital assets. Net assets in total increased (decreased)
overall by the amount of income (loss) before capital contributions plus capital contributions
recognized from connection fees and developers.

Service charges increased overall for 2012 due to a rate increase of 4 % within the wastewater
fund. There were no rate increases for each of the storm water and upper iaterai funds. Other
operating revenues consist of inspection fees and late charges and are consistent between years.
Property taxes are an allocation from the State of California to special districts known as ABS
money that are subventions not restricted as to purpose, and decreased due to assessed value
decline. Non-operating revenue increased for share crop and solar rebates. Interest and
investment income increased over the prior year due to large non-cash fair value increase of
approximately $650K. Actual interest received is consistent with the prior year at approximately
$1M or about 2%o on average. Capital contributions were up due to new developments accepted.
Connection fees increased in 2012 due to slightly larger fees per connection.
Salaries and benefits are slightly lower for the current year at approximately $11.3M due to
staffing reductions from previous years. The amount reported for salaries and benefits is higher
due to the one-time approximate $4M side fund payoff with CalPERS. The wastewater fund
borrowed from the storm water fund for repayment over twelve years at 2% interest financed from
savings from the CalPERS employer rate. The transaction will save the District approximately
$2M from CalPERS side fund payments avoided. Operating supplies are consistent and slightly
down from the prior year, and utilities are down due to savings from the solar panels. General
and administrative are up due mainly to increases in claims deductibles and permit fees.

Service charges increased overall for 2011 due to a rate increase of 4 % within the wastewater
fund. There were no rate increases for each of the storm water and upper lateral funds. Other
operating revenues increased slightly due to a small increase in late charges, while other types of
revenue sources-were consistent between years. Property taxes are an allocation from the State
of California to special districts known as ABS money that are subventions not restricted as to
purpose. Property tax revenue decreased due to declining County of Soiano assessed values.
Interest and investment income decreased substantially due to interest rates that were essentially
cut in half. The District previously earned approximately 4%) interest income on average and now
receives approximately 2% on average. Interest rates on investments are not expected to rise
anytime soon. The District currently invests in governments and FDIC insured investments, and
small positions in corporate. Connection fees represent a one-time fee for hookup to the sewer
system, include a capacity component, and are legally restricted for future capital purposes.
Connection fees are also collected for change of use when increasing discharge strength. These
fees vary with construction activity and decreased in 2011 due to fewer large connections. Capital
contributions received include cash contributions from intergovernmental and private developers
as well as non-cash contributions from the donation of new development sewage and storm
drainage infrastructure placed in service. There were no new developments accepted during the
fiscal year 2010, and accordingly, no contributions from developers.

Capital Assets and Debt Administration (Notes 3 and 6, respectively)
In addition to OM&R, the District also maintains an ongoing capital improvement program. This
program largely influences how the District budgets and sets its rates. The most recent update to
the capital improvement program was with the adoption of the 11-12 & 12-13 bi-annual budget.
The program sets forth a series of projects to upgrade and replace aging District sewer systems
with emphasis on line rehabilitation and elimination of overflows. The total program amounts to
approximately $3M annually to be financed from the rate pay-as-you-go. During the year ended
June 30, 2012, the District completed and placed in service projects and various capitai assets
while adding to its construction in progress all totaling approximately $7,612,000.

The District continues to expand, upgrade and improve the quality of its sewage collection and
treatment systems to keep current with environmental regulations and the needs of its service
area. The District uses debt to finance the significant costs of major upgrades to spread the costs
to future as well as current residents, rather than current residents bearing ail the costs through
use of pay-as-you-go. There are three issuances of bonded debt currently outstanding, but there
have been a total of five.
The District issued Series 2011 Revenue Bonds in the principal amount of $3,345,000 refunding
the 2001 Ceri:ificates of Part:icipation to replace variable-rate debt with fixed rate. The series 2006
Certificates of Participation were issued at premium during 2005-06 to construct the Ryder Street
Storage Basin and to correct a bottleneck, the Calaveras / Mendocino / Mariposa sewer
improvement project now completed and placed in service. The District entered into a loan dated
January 24, 2008 with the State of California's State Revolving Fund. The loan is in the principal
amount of $4,406,072 with interest at 2.4%) for repayment over 20 years. The District entered into
a loan August 24, 2004, with the State Revolving Fund program to continue financing the SSOEP
project. The loan was in the principal amount of $13.9M with interest at 2.5% to be repaid over 20
years.
The above capital asset and debt administration information is summary only. See the notes to
the financial statements for additional details. Total principal repayment for 2012 and 2011 was
$3,677,217 and $3,360,429, respectively.

VALLEJO SANITATION AND FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT
A COMPONENT UNIT OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS: (Continued)
Rates and Other Economic Factors
The District is governed in part by provisions of the State Water Resources Control Board that say
that rate-based revenues must at minimum cover the costs of operation, maintenance and
recurring capital replacement (OM&R). Economic downturns can lead to increased customer
bankruptcies and foreclosures that can reduce billed utility revenues realized, and also reduce
construction activity that reduces connection fees received. Revenues can also be affected by
declines in assessed property values that reduce property taxes, and the impact of unfavorable
economic conditions on investment interest rates. Accordingly, the District sets its rates to its
users to cover the costs of OM&R and debt financed capitai improvements plus any increments
for known or anticipated changes that may occur in connection with respective program costs.
For the wastewater fund, rate adjustments were approved by the Board of Trustees for each of
the three fiscal years beginning July 1, 2012, 2013, and 2014 to fund debt service, maintain a
capital program, keep with rising costs, and in accordance with the District's Long Term Financiai
Plan. The rate adjustments were 2.5% for each of the three fiscal years, respectively. The storm
water fund last changed its rate in 1998 from $1.77 per month to $1.97 per month. A rate equity
study was performed for the storm water fund that included workshops conducted with the
Citizens Advisory Committee that determined the rate structure to be inequitable. The current flat
rate of $1.97 per month does not take into account runoff and pollutant loadings for customer
classifications. The Committee's findings recommend proceeding to implement the rate equity
study. The upper lateral fund saw a rate adjustment during the 2004-05 fiscal year from .69 cents
per month to $1.38 per month. The upper lateral rate is a function of program demand that
remains high.
District Funding: With each budget cycle, the District starts the funding process by reviewing its
financial requirements for salaries & benefits, operations materials, supplies & services, debt
service, insurance, and capital improvements. Service charges to customers are established after
funding is considered from all other alternative sources such as property tax revenues, connection
fees, probable interest revenues, and intergovernmental and developer contributions.
For the fiscal year 2011-12, the District contained approximately 38,000 customer accounts and
recognized approximately $25,917,000 in revenue from rate-based service charges. The District
diligently pursues control of its service charges with its review of expenses, revenues, and cash
reserves. The statistical section of this report contains a table of service charge rates that shows
steady but mild growth.
Property Taxes: The District receives an ailocation of property taxes authorized by the State of
California that historically has amounted to approximately $1,000,000 annually or 5% of total
revenues. High unemployment and high foreclosure rates within Solano County are the two
leading adverse economic conditions that have driven Solano County property tax revenues down
to now approximateiy $730,000, and they may go down a iittie bit further if conditions do not
improve. The District will compensate through use of rate-based revenues to properiy finance its
requirements for operations, maintenance, and capital programs.

VALLEJO SANITATION AND FLOOD CONTROL DISTRICT
A COMPONENT UNIT OF THE CITY OF VALLEJO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
General
The Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District is a special district body corporate and politic of
the County of Solano formed April 19, 1952 by Act 8934 of the California legislature. The District
is not coterminous with the City of Vallejo and serves additional unincorporated County areas.
The District provides wastewater collection and treatment and storm water transmission over its
entire service area.
The Financial Reporting Entity
The nucleus for the financial reporting entity usually is a primary government, but may be a
component unit when the component unit provides separately issued financial statements.
Component units are legally separate organizations for which the elected officials of the primary
government are financially accountable. Financial accountability exists in situations where a
voting majority of an organization's governing body is substantively the same as the governing
body ofthe primary government. The District's Board of Trustees consists ofthe seven members
of the Vallejo City Council and one member appointed by the Solano County Board of
Supervisors. There is no financial benefit or burden relationship with the primary government or
operational responsibility. The District is a discrete component unit of the City of Vallejo.
Financing Corporation
The Vallejo Sanitation and Flood Control District's Financing Corporation was organized July 1,
1993 under the Non-Profit Public Benefit Corporation Law of the State of California solely for the
purpose of providing financial assistance to the District by acquiring, constructing, improving and
financing various facilities, land and equipment, and by leasing or selling certain facilities, land and
equipment for the use, benefit and enjoyment of the public served by the District. The Corporation
has no members and its Board of Directors consists of the same, persons who serve as the Board
of Trustees of the District. There is no financial benefit or burden relationship with the primary
government or operational responsibility. The Financing Corporation is a discrete component unit
of the City of Vallejo. There are no separate financial statements prepared for the Corporation.
Basis of Presentation
The District provides three services to users within its sen/ice area, wastewater, storm water, and
upper lateral, utilizing separate enterprise funds. For financial statement purposes, the District
reports each fund as a major fund for accountability, consistency, and public interest. Enterprise
funds are used to account for those operations that are financed and operated through user fees
in a manner similar to private business or where the Board has decided that the determination of
revenues earned, costs incurred and/or net income is necessary for management accountability.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Enterprise funds are accounted for on the flow of economic resources measurement focus
utilizing the full accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, assets and revenues are
recorded when earned, and liabilities and expenses are recorded when the related obligations are
incurred. As permitted by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board's Statement Number
20, the District applies all applicable GASB pronouncements as well as all applicable FASB
pronouncements issued on or before November 30,1989.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued)
Cash Equivalents and Investments
Cash equivalents include short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash with an original maturity of three months or less. These consist of the
carrying value of the District's deposits with financial institutions, short-term investments with the
State of CA's Local Agency Investment Fund and the money fund portion of custody investment
and debt service trustee accounts. The statements of cash flows measure and identify changes in
these cash and cash equivalents.
Investments are stated at fair value.
Fair value is the amount at which an investment could be
exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. All investment income and changes in
fair value is recognized in the Statements of Revenues and Expenses and Changes in Fund Net
Assets. Investments include custody securities with a fiscal agent and construction and reserve
funds with trustee banks.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable represent service charges and other revenues billed and uncollected at yearend, and includes accrued amounts for items billed after year-end for service periods before yearend. Each year the District records liens for delinquent charges and collects through the property
tax bill for active accounts, and pursues full-collection for closed accounts with unpaid balances.
Non-recoverable collections are provided for through an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Supplies Inventory
Supplies inventories are valued at cost and follow a first-in-first-out (FIFO) flow. This flow
approximates market because ending inventory consists of the most recent items purchased.
Inventories are recorded as expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of the District's ceri:ificate of participation issuances are classified as restricted
assets because bond covenants limit their use. Reserve balances are to be maintained as set
forth in installment purchase contracts or trust agreements, as applicable.
Wastewater and Storm Drainage Facilities
Wastewater and storm drainage facilities purchased or constructed are stated at cost less
accumulated depreciation. Assets contributed have been recorded at the fair market value at the
date received. Interest is capitalized for assets constructed when applicable. The costs of normal
repairs and maintenance that do not add to the value of an asset or materially extend asset lives
are not capitalized. Improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives
of the related capital assets, as applicable. The District capitalizes applicable assets greater than
$1,000. Straight-line depreciation is provided for estimated lives of capital assets as follows:
Wastewater treatment plant and facilities
Wastewater and storm water pump stations
Wastewater collection and storm water transmission systems
Buildings and improvements
Machinery and equipment

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued)
Long-Term Debt Costs of Issuance
Costs of issuance are amortized on a straight-line basis over the life of the related debt issue.
Discount, premium and deferred amount on refunding are components of interest expense.
Compensated Absences and Other Post Employment Benefits
Accumulated vacation leave and vested sick leave benefits are recorded as an expense and
liability of applicable enterprise funds as the benefits accrue to employees. No liability is recorded
for the nonvesting portion of sick leave benefits. The employer contribution for post-retirement
health insurance benefits is funded based upon actuarially determined requirements.
Risk Retention
Liability claims below policy deductibles, including claims related administration and legal
expenses, are charged to operations as incurred. The District maintains insurance coverage for
catastrophic occurrences that would othenwise result in property loss amounts greater than the
per occurrence deductible. The annual premium for this policy is charged to operating expense.
Refundable Connection Deposits
Connection fees represent a one-time contribution of resources imposed on contractors and
developers for the purpose of financing capital improvements. Connection fees remain the
property of the contractor for a period of one year recorded as a liability and are recognized as
revenue when the development is complete and passed final engineering inspection. The
unspent balance of connection fees available at year-end, if any, is classified as net assets
restricted for capital improvements.
Net Assets
Net assets is the excess of assets over liabilities and consists of four components, invested in
wastewater and storm drainage facilities net of related debt, restricted for capital improvements,
restricted for debt service, and unrestricted. Restrictions represent constraints placed on use
either by external groups, laws or regulations. The District first applies unrestricted net assets to
transactions and adjusts balances of restricted net assets as applicable.
Service Charges
The District charges separate user fees established by Ordinance for each of its three businesstype activities.
Operating Revenues and Expenses
Operating revenues and expenses fund rate-based service charges and the costs of operation
and maintenance and recurring capital replacement (OM&R), respectively.
Non-operating
revenues and expenses are non rate-based and are received from or paid to other sources.
Capital Contributions
Certain capital projects financed or constructed by external parties and contributed to the District
with or without restrictions are reported separately as income after operating and non-operating
revenues. District constructed projects may receive financing assistance from intergovernmental
or other sources, such as developers, and developers may construct and transfer ownership of
sewage and storm drainage facilities to the District at acceptance of the project.

assets and liabilities at the financial statement date, and reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Institutions, Investments (Including Repurchase Agreements),
and Reverse

Interest rate risk: The California Government Code limits investment maturities to five years or
less unless authorized by the Board of Trustees for a specific purpose. The District does not have
a formal investment policy that further limits investment maturities as a means of managing
exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates.
Concentration of credit risk: GASB 40 requires disclosure of investment concentrations that
exceed 5%. At year-end, 22% was invested with government agency FNMA securities, 8% with
FHLMC, and 8% FHLB. No other investments exceeded 5%. These investment concentrations
are in compliance with limit requirements descnbed below.
Credit risk: The California Government Code limits credit quality ratings to high investment grade.
The District investment policy with respect to credit ratings follows the government code except for
corporate medium-term notes that require ratings of AA or better. All of the District's investments
in obligations of United States Government Agencies were rated Aaa by Moody's. Ratings for the
District's corporate bonds ranged from Aa3 to Aa2 by Moody's and to NR for investments in
Lehman Brothers in default. Investments in certificates of deposit (CD's) are FDIC insured. The
LAIF investment pool is not rated, and the money market pools consisting of Dreyfus, Goldman
Sachs and Highmark are rated AAA by S&P and Moody's, respectively.

alternative for California municipalities and special districts. The LAIF has oversight by the Local
Agency Investment Advisory Board. The Board consists of five members designated by statute.
The difference between the fair value of the District's equity in the pool and pool shares is not
material, and accordingly, no adjustment has been recorded.

Bonds in a current refunding (1) to prepay the outstanding principal of 2001 Certificates of
Participation, (2) to fund a reserve fund for the Bonds, and (3) to pay certain costs of issuing the
Bonds. The Bonds are fully registered with principal due annually on May 1, and interest payable
semi-annually on May 1 and November 1. The Bonds maturing on or after May 1, 2022 are
subject to optional redemption on any date on or after May 1, 2021, together with accrued interest
to the redemption date, without a premium.

and redeemed the remaining principal amounting to $3,315,000 pursuant to notice and exercise
of optional prepayment of the Ceri:ificates for a total of $3,460,000. The transaction resulted in a
deferred amount on refunding of $53,447, a decrease in total cash flows of $262,952, and an

information for the plan is not available. However, system-wide reports that contain the costsharing plan may be obtained through contacting CALPERS directly. See the statistical section of
this report for contact information for CALPERS.
Funding Policy
CALPERS participating employees contribute 8% of their salary as required by CALPERS for
local miscellaneous plan members. The District contributes the remaining amounts necessary to
fund contracted benefits at rates set forth using the actuanai methods and assumptions

recommended by CALPERS actuanes and actuarial consultants, and adopted by the CALPERS
Board of Administration. The employer required contribution rate for the fiscal year 2011-12 was
14.762% of covered payroll, a reduction of 5.882% due to payoff of the sidefund. CALPERS
establishes and may amend employee and employer contribution requirements. CALPERS
prepares actuarial valuation reports annually for each member participant in the cost-sharing plan.
The employer rate by member consists of the normal cost of the cost-shanng plan plus side fund
amortization to account for the difference between the funded status of the cost-sharing plan and
the funded status of the member plan upon entry into the cost-sharing plan. The District's
employer rate is the normal cost only with no side fund amortization of the cost-sharing plan.
Required Contributions

Temporary and Seasonal Employees
Federal law requires that employees not covered by an employer retirement system be covered
by Social Security or an alternative plan. The District hires temporary employees whose positions
are exempt from PERS membership, and utilizes Social Security for these positions.
POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
Plan Description
The District's defined benefit postemployment healthcare plan, Public Agency Post-Retirement
Health Care Plan (the Plan), provides medical benefits to eligible retired employees and their
beneficiaries. The Public Agency Retirement System (PARS) administers the Plan, an agent
multiple-employer trust arrangement established to provide economies of scale and efficiency ofadministration to public agencies that hold assets used to fund OPEB obligations. Plan benefits
were established in accordance with Board policy and Memorandums of Understanding for
respective employee groups, and may be amended by the Board of Trustees. PARS provides an
annual financial report for the aggregate Plan that may be obtained by contacting PARS directly.
Contact information for PARS is located in the Statistical section of this report.
Funding Policy
The Plan is fully funded by employer contributions with no requirement for matching or othenwise
pro-rata employee contributions. As the plan's sponsor, the District establishes and may amend
employee and employer contribution requirements. The District is required to contribute the
annual required contribution (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the
35

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 9 - EMPLOYEE BENEFITS: (Continued)
parameters of GASB Statement Number 45 (GASB 45). The ARC represents a level of funding
that, if paid on an ongoing basis, projects to cover the normal cost each year and amortize
unfunded actuarial liabilities, if any, over a period not to exceed thirty years. The ARC is subject
to change with each actuarial valuation date performed no later than every three years.
Annual OPEB Cost
The District's annual OPEB expense (the ARC plus interest) and the amount paid for the fiscal
year 2011-12 amount to $1,074,642 and $1,024,593, respectively. The District's annual OPEB

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan as
understood by the employer and eligible Plan members and include the actuarial present value of
all Plan benefits allocated between the periods before and after the valuation date. The present
value of Plan benefits earned prior to the valuation date is called the actuarial liability. The
present value of Plan benefits to be earned after the valuation date is called the present value of
future normal costs. Actuarial assumptions include a 7.5% investment return, a medical trend rate
beginning at 8.6% declining to 5.7% after 10 years, and a 3.25% inflation rate. Actuarial methods
may also include techniques that are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarially accrued
liabilities and actuarial assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
The cost method for valuation of liabilities used for valuation of the District's Plan dated January 1,
2007 is the entry age normal method, Under the entry age normal actuarial cost method, an
individual entry age normal cost ratio is determined for each participant by taking the value of the
participant's projected future benefits and dividing it by the value of his expected future salary.
This ratio for each participant is then multiplied by the present value of the participant's future
salary. The sum of the values of all active participants is the Plan's present value of future normal
costs. The excess of the present value of Plan benefits over the present value of future normal
costs is the actuarial liability. The difference between the actuarial liability and. the value of the
Plan assets is the unfunded actuarial liability.
The unfunded actuarial liability is amortized over a period of 30 years from the valuation date
(closed basis) with payments increasing by a payroll growth assumption of 3.25% per annum.
The amortization method used is a level percent of payroll. Payments are assumed to be made
throughout the year. Subsequent gains and losses and benefit improvements will be amortized
over the same remaining period.

Funded Status and Funding Progress
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of tlie value of reported amounts and
assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include
assumptions about investment return, future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend.
Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the Plan and annual required contributions
are subject to change when actual results are compared with past expectations together with new
estimates about the future. Plan assets are stated at current market prices. The table below

NOTE 10 - RISK MANAGEMENT:
The District is exposed to various risks of loss, such as torts, errors and omissions, employment
practices, pollution, auto physical damage, injuries to employees, theft of, damage to, and
destruction of assets, and natural disaster. The District part:icipates in a joint powers agreement
with other public entities that form the California Sanitation Risk Management Authority (CSRMA),
a public entity risk pool operating as a common risk management and insurance program for 60
member entities. CSRMA spreads the adverse effects of losses among its member entities for its
pooled programs, and purchases excess insurance, reinsurance, and commercial insurance,
where applicable and as a group, for its group insurance programs to reduce costs.
CSRMA is governed by a Board of Directors composed of one representative from each member
agency that meet three times per year in conjunction with meetings of the California Association of
Sanitation Agencies. The Board controls CSRMA's operations including selection of management
and approval of operating budgets, independent of any influence by member entities.
The District pays annual deposits to CSRMA for the programs listed below. Pooled liability and
pooled workers' compensation programs charge the member funded SIR (self-insured reserve)
for claims below limits, and utilize excess insurance and reinsurance for claims above the SIR.
The primary, pollution, and property programs are entirely covered through commercial insurance.
Settled claims for CSRMA have not exceeded coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. The
District also maintains employee fidelity bonds to protect against the risk of employee theft or
defalcation. Public official bonds are used for the District Manager and Treasurer, a notary bond
for the District Clerk, and a public employee dishonesty bond for all other employees.
