Ivy Gonzalez, management analyst for the City of Glendora, presented an update on the water division’s proposed two‑year budget and capital improvement program for fiscal years 2025–26 and 2026–27.

Gonzalez said the operating revenues and expenses cover treatment, distribution, customer service and conservation programs; the capital projects fund covers long‑term infrastructure projects including pipe replacements, treatment upgrades and new or upgraded storage tanks. Staff indicated no substantial changes to the division’s projected operations and stated the division is not operating at a deficit at this time.

Commission questions and CIP status: Commissioners asked for clearer project timelines and for the city engineer to provide status on active capital projects. Gonzalez said several street/water projects are currently in design (she named the Colorado Water Street improvement, Cypress Water Street improvement and Glendora Avenue Water Street improvement) and that design awards have been made; construction phases will follow as bids and schedules are finalized. She said the city has identified roughly $30 million over the next five years for CIP work but noted finance staff are finalizing numbers and that the city’s finance director will present final budget figures to City Council in June.

Rate study and affordability: Commissioners asked whether rate increases beyond the most recent rate study will be necessary to fund planned CIP work; staff said they are being careful to stay within the existing rate projections from the last rate study and do not plan an additional recommendation to the council at this time.

The commission voted unanimously to receive and file the proposed two‑year budget update and capital improvement program. Commissioners requested a July follow‑up that lists active CIP projects with brief status notes.

The presentation will be shared with City Council in June as part of the city’s budget process.
