Sanitary District for the year .1959 has been submitted to the City of St. Paul for approval and the establishment by the city of sewer rental rates for 1959. When the present system of sewer rental rates was established in St. Paul, it was the purpose of the Council to provide funds in this manner to care for the operation and maintenance costa of the Sanitary District: Capita?! costs In- volved through the issuance and retirement of Sanitary District bonds remained as part of the tax structure of the city. Since the original construction of the plant and until 19559 capital expenditures at the Sanitary District have not been major in character, and the St. Paul share of such expenditures has been financed from the sewer rbntal fund. The capital expendituie budget of the Sanitary District for St. Paul for the three yesars 1955, 1956, and 1957 totaled $54,067.07. The actual expenditures charge4 to St. Paul during this 3-year period a >ceeded the budget try the total amount of $104,749.75. These expenditures in excess of the capital outlay budget were m34e by transfer from the operation and .maintenance fund and have resulted in depleting that fund to the extent that it appasits that at the end of 1958 there will be a shortage in this fund of approvAiSately $30,000. The St. Pau! shard of thra 19 58 capitaA expenditure budget imunts to $42,515.7n and the l95 budget $61,258.80. The Technical Committee has endeavored to determine the possibility of financing these capital expenditures extending back to 1955 through the issuance of addi- tional St. Paul Sanitary District bonds under the original authorization which covered the construction of the plant. This would restore the substantial bal- ance in the sewer rental fund which would exist had not these capital expendi- tures been financed from it. Information from the city "s bond attorneys in- dicates that the refinancing in this manner of past expenditures is not possible without additional legislation. The budget estimate of the Sanitary District for St. Paul for the year 1959 amounts to $4539283.16 for operation and maintenance and $61,258.80 for capital additions, making a total of $514,541.96. The District budget also includes a budget estimate of the St. Paul plater Department for collection costa in the amount of $44p560. The 1958 city budget contains an item of $65,000 for the expense of the Public Works Department for maintenance of intercepter sewers,and a like amount has been requested by the Public Works.Department for 1959. In vier of the existing conditions, your coramit'tee ree-emnnds: 1. That the capital additions budget in they anwunt of 561,258.83 be financed by the issuance of additional Sanitary District bonds of the City of St. Paul. Hon.
