Financial Reports

The Finance Division provides the accounting, auditing, budgeting, investing, and debt management functions required, showing clearly and accurately at all times, the financial status of the District. SMWD finds itself in a strong financial position. This did not happen by accident, but through careful fiscal planning over the course of many years. SMWD uses a long-range planning approach that is similar to a family who regularly puts money aside over time to pay for the eventual cost of their children's college education.

Annual Comprehensive Financial Report and Audits

Public agencies such as SMWD do not issue a traditional annual report, but rather a much fuller report called an Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. This report highlights major projects and initiatives in addition to financial data and includes the independent auditors report. The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report has been the annual financial report of choice for public agencies since it was established in 1945 by the Government Finance Officers Association. Reports submitted to the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement program are reviewed by selected members of the GFOA professional staff and the GFOA Special Review Committee (SRC), which is comprised of individuals with expertise in public-sector financial reporting and includes financial statement preparers, independent auditors, academics, and other finance professionals. SMWD's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report has earned the prestigious Certificate of Achievement for Excellence award each year the report was prepared. This award recognizes governments whose annual financial reports achieve the highest standards in government accounting and financial reporting.

Community Facilities District Disclosures

The Mello-Roos Community Facility District Act of 1982 was created to provide an alternate method of financing major infrastructure necessary to support development within an identified area. This Act allows any county, city, school district or joint powers authority to establish a Community Facilities District (CFD) to fund/finance public facilities (schools, streets, sewers, storm drains). CFD's Special Taxes are collected on the property tax bill and appears as a separate line item clearly identified by the CFD name and public entity which has formed the CFD. Below are the financial report for the SMWD CFD's.
