Executive Director's Message September 12, 2023 Clay County Utility Authority (CCUA) Executive Director's Message September 12, 2023 CCUA provides safe, economic, reliable, and sustainable water, wastewater, and reclaimed water services to the unincorporated areas of Clay County. Our core mission supports and sustains our quality of life and ensures the economic vitality of our community for the years to come. We remain in a significant growth and expansion period. We continue to monitor the progress of the First Coast Expressway (FCE) and Clay County's bonded roadway program and maintain a pulse on the economic growth the County anticipates. Our forecast for the upcoming year projects a slight increase in new accounts from last year. With that growth, we continue to experience inflationary pressures with the cost of labor, material, and equipment continuing to increase. In addition, we saw a significant increase in other costs such as insurance. Supply chain and lead times for electrical equipment, and certain equipment such as MXU's, used to remotely read the water meters, remains challenging and uncertain. Our team received notifications for continued price increases for the next fiscal year. The price increases create an impact on CCUA's operating costs and thereby our customers' rates. We highlighted a few of the price increases reflected in the upcoming fiscal year's budget. General Liability and Property Insurance: 67.33% Health Insurance: 9% Transportation Expenses: 26.28% Communications Expenses: 42.18% Electric and Fuel for our Water Treatment Plants: 22.73% Electric and Fuel for our Wastewater Treatment Plants: 17% Electric and Fuel for our Wastewater Pump Stations: 21.49% Software Costs: 46.96% Subcontractors for the Water Treatment Plant Maintenance: 21.51% Subcontractors for Water Testing: 32.41% Subcontractors for the Wastewater Treatment Plant Maintenance: 78.79% Subcontractors for Trash Service: 27.54% The construction and acceptance of new facilities and infrastructure related to development means CCUA has more to operate and maintain in serving our growing community. Our effort to recruit and retain qualified staff remains a focal point. We experienced positive results with the implementation of the Employee Professional Development and Training Program (PDTP) this fiscal year. We committed to continue to develop this program in the upcoming fiscal year. Additionally, the CCUA team continues providing opportunities within Clay County through the CCUA High School Internship Program. Last year, we hired four (4) high school interns who became full-time employees upon their graduation. Even with the investments in increased staff levels to meet operational requirements, development, training, and wages within the proposed budget only increased by 9.3%. Page 1 of 4 We resumed with the Capital Reserve Strategy that was initially established in 2011 to minimize an unnecessary impact on our customers. The Capital Reserve Strategy incorporates the Bond Resolution (93/94-27) requirement to maintain a minimum of 5% of the previous year's revenue toward the Capital Reserve. In addition to the minimum requirement,CCUA includes an additional 5% anticipating changes in regulations with required upgrades or replacement of infrastructure. The Proposed FY2023/2024 Budget includes $2,844,521 for the Capital Reserve. This past year, we were surprised by the rapid increase in construction costs of the Capital Improvement Program projects. Our Peters Creek Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) was expected to cost roughly $44 million. We ultimately negotiated a construction contract for the Peters Creek WRF project to roughly $70 million. Looking at the Peters Creek WRF and the Governors Park facilities, the contracted design and construction costs for these two (2) projects are over $88 million. Currently, CCUA has 64 projects in either design or construction. The table below summarizes current projects and contract values. Number of Total Contract Projects Type of Project Value** % On Schedule*** 37 Engineering Design& SDC* 15,850,000 81% 17 Construction 124,832,000 76% Total Contract Value $140,682,000 * SDC-Services During Construction **All projects are currently tracking on the approved budget *** Construction Schedule delays primarily due to supply chain issues,especially electrical gear We continuously monitor the Consumer Price Index (CPI) from the U.S. Department of Labor Bureau of Labor Statistics. Historically, for budgetary purposes, we used the CPI from March of the previous year to March of the current year. The CPI from March 2022 to March 2023 was 5.0% (USDL-23-0674). Last year, our team worked extremely hard to minimize financial impacts on most of our customers. The CPI from March 2021 to March 2022 was 8.5% (USDL-22-0619). CCUA's revenue increase last year was 3.9%. Roughly 69% of our customers saw a 2% increase in their bill with the higher water users seeing the larger increase last year. We proposed increasing base and flow charges to a uniform 8.1% for the upcoming fiscal year. We consider this rate increase necessary to meet the increased costs we are experiencing as highlighted above. We must maintain the investments in our staff development and training to maintain sophisticated functioning systems that support and sustain public health and safety. We must also maintain our funding for the rehabilitation and replacement of our existing infrastructure. When evaluating the last two (2) years, CCUA's revenue requirements increased an average of 6%. Over the same two (2) year period, the CPI has increased an average of 6.75%. With this difference, CCUA continues to provide our customers with significant value while facing challenging circumstances. Page 2 of 4 We also want to point out that our customers will no longer see the St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) Cost Recovery Charge of $1.09 on your monthly bill. This charge represented the cost to existing customers for the SJRWMD Black Creek Resource Development Project and was tied to the settlement agreement approved on July 20, 2021. We will complete this cost recovery effort by September 30, 2023, and the charge will be removed beginning in October 2023. We exist to serve our customers with safe and reliable potable water, wastewater, and reclaimed water services. We understand an 8.1% rate increase seems daunting. To better understand the impact on a customer's monthly bill, we provided below a table showing what changes the difference in rates will make to a water and wastewater customer. Customer Bill by Water Demand (Water and Wastewater Only) 5,000 Gal. per 10,000 Gal. per 15,000 Gal. per 20,000 Gal. per Fiscal Year Month Month Month Month 2023-2024 $70.62 $113.28 $142.95 $179.28 2022-2023 $66.47 $105.93 $133.37 $166.97 Difference ($): $4.15 $7.35 $9.58 $12.31 Difference (%): 6.24% 6.94% 7.18% 7.37% We are hopeful this brief overview helps gain insight into the value the CCUA team is committed to providing to our customers and our community. We continue to navigate challenging supply chain issues and increasing costs while investing in our team of highly trained professionals to operate and maintain our growing system. The CCUA team remains committed to providing long- term sustainable value to our customers.

Based on our proposed strategy,we could support additional debt of approximately$103,220,973. However,if the NNC compliance is no additional cost to CCUA then under this strategy we would be able to fund about 19%of the remaining capital cost required for this period leaving about 81%to be funded by additional debt,which still exceeds our debt capacity by$399,019,303. 2.Our proposed strategy assumes we will not have to use any of our budgeted contingency provision for operating expenses.In extremely wet years we may have to use some reserves to stabilize revenues but we believe this will average out over time.This will need to be monitored to be sure the earnings level does not decline. It also assumes$6,984,000 in capacity fees and AWS(with the proposed capacity fee deferral the assumption is 1,440 closings/year)is received annually and that 100%of the budgeted projects are complete. 3.The debt that can be issued at the various interest rates clearly illustrates the importance of receiving a strong credit rating with the credit rating agencies. Unrestricted cash reserves are a key element in the rating agencies review and are very significant in attracting the lowest possible interest rate when additional capital financing is needed.
