Summary
Town Administrator Smith reported FY2026 water billing collections of $261,083 and a year-to-date net profit of $61,142. The council supported a $300-per-year automated backflow inspection tracking program to reduce staff workload.
Town Administrator Smith reported to the Interlaken Town Council that the town has collected $261,083 for FY2026 water billing, with $1,460 remaining in current accounts receivable. Smith also presented revenue and expense reports through May 31 showing a year-to-date net profit of $61,142 compared with a budgeted year-end figure of $25,030. Summaries for each Grand Valley Bank account were provided.
Separately, the council discussed cross-connection control and annual inspections for backflow prevention devices. Smith described a program that would automate notices and track backflow test reporting for an estimated $300 annually; the council was supportive because the program would reduce the time staff member Bart spends on tracking and notices.
The council did not take formal votes on the backflow tracking program at the meeting; the financial reports were presented for information and potential follow-up in the budget process.
