2020 City of Shakopee Budget

159

ENTERPRISE FUNDS The Enterprise Funds are maintained to account for the operation of the sanitary sewer, storm drainage systems and refuse. Since the operation of these systems is financed by user charges and are self-supporting, they are accounted for in a manner similar to private business. The Storm Drainage Fund was established by Ordinance 176 in 1985. The intent of the City Council is to have a cash balance to provide for six to twelve months operating costs, annual debt service requirements and at least ten percent of accumulated depreciation to provide for capital outlay. The City reviews fees annually to determine appropriate revenue levels.
