Financials
The District Board annually prioritizes work activities from the long range work plan constituting targeted efforts for the coming year. These work activities translate into the annual work plan and budget for the SWWD. The annual work plan allows the District Board to establish a short term operating budget while maintaining connection to the overall long term management goals of the District. Six Management areas have been defined through which the SWWD will work to execute the annual work plan. The areas are: (1) Planning, (2) Regulatory, (3) Implementation & Maintenance, (4) Education & information, (5) Operational, and (6) Debt Service Fund. According to Minnesota Statute 103D.911 the SWWD must hold a hearing and adopt a preliminary budget on or before September 15th of each year. The final budget certification is due to Washington County by December 31st of each year.
Annual Reports
Each year, Watershed Districts prepare a yearly report of the financial conditions of the District, the status of projects, and business transacted by the Watershed District and other matters of interest. Additionally, the work plan for the next year is developed and included in the annual report. The work plan designates program categories and work tasks or projects within each category every fiscal year.
