SJRWMD FY 2017-2018 Final Budget <br />Adequacy of Fiscal Resources <br />The evaluation of fiscal resources over a five-year span is required to ensure <br />sustainable funding for all projects and plans set forth by the District. This evaluation <br />includes the District's long-term funding plan, demonstrating the District's ability to <br />adequately address the core mission or AORs. <br />The District's sources of revenue are: <br />• Ad valorem taxes (primary revenue source) <br />• State sources (general revenue appropriations and funding, when available, <br />through trust funds) <br />• Federal sources (funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and <br />National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) <br />• District sources (interest, regulatory fees, etc.) <br />• Local sources (land leases, timber sales, cities, counties, other water <br />management districts, etc.) <br />The FY 2017-18 operating budget is funded primarily with ad valorem taxes, which <br />account for 53.2 percent of the budget. The District also receives appropriations from <br />general sales taxes and documentary stamp taxes on real estate transactions collected <br />statewide. State sources this fiscal year include $15.1 million for springs protection, $8.8 <br />million for Lake Apopka projects, and $5 million for the Black Creek Water Resource <br />Development (WRD) project. These resources are committed by Governing Board <br />resolution to future years' funding of capital and grant awards over the District's five- <br />year planning horizon. Figure 3 provides graphic representation of the District's long- <br />term funding plan. <br />FY 2017-2018 SJRWMD Long -Term Funding Plan <br />(in $ millions) <br />Recurring (Operating) o Non -Recurring (Projects) <br />—Anticipated Revenues —Total Budget <br />$200 — -- — — -- — ---- <br />$35.5 $27.9 <br />$150[ ._ ---...Ppl �_ `27.0 $24.5.------ — -- - <br />��� r --j— `$9.9 $1.4 <br />$100 <br />$50 <br />Adopted Adopted Projected Projected Projected Projected <br />FY 1617 FY 17-18 FY 18-19 FY 19-20 FY 2021 FY 21-22 <br />Remaining $118.6 $90.7 $63.7 $39.2 $29.3 $27.9 <br />Fund Balance <br />Figure 3.
