Vrbanovic, Chair, and Members of the Finance and Corporate Services Committee August 21, 2006 Pauline Houston, General Manager of Financial Services & City Treasurer Pauline Houston (2646) ALL July 26, 2006 FIN-06-023 Allocation of 2005 Gasworks Surplus RECOMMENDATION: None. For information only BACKGROUND: At a Council meeting in May of this year, Councillor Gazzola noted that a $17.5 million surplus in gasworks has been realized as opposed to the previous estimates of $13.5 million. It was agreed that staff would report to a future Finance and Corporate Services Committee meeting as to any action that might be taken to allow the City's utility customers to share in the surplus. REPORT: As outlined in the Gas Capital Investment Reserve Fund Projection (Schedule 1) attached, the projected actual contribution from Gasworks for 2005, at the time of the 2006 Budget discussions was estimated at $13,486,000. Based on final year end results, the actual transfer, as per Council policy, was $17,571,000 (i.e. a difference of $4,085,000). There were two additional projects approved to be funded from this reserve fund, subsequent to 2006 Budget approval: 1. Joseph/Gaukel/Canada Post Project (environmental remediation) $3,989,000 2. Gasworks infrastructure requirements $1,000,000 As a result, the projected closing balance for this reserve fund is $6,592,000, which is $719,000 less than budget. Since the surplus funds from 2005 have been allocated to the above projects, there is no excess surplus available at this time, to be considered for other purposes.
