  7. Service Availability Charge • The economic decline will likely cause the SAC reserve to drop below the established minimum balance in the next couple of years. • Council Policy 3-2-5: The calculated minimum balance is 20% of the sum of the following five years SAC transfers.

  9. Service Availability Charge • A more realistic—albeit slightly optimistic—recovery might look like this: • 2009: 13,000 • 2010: 16,000 • 2011: 18,000 • 2012: 20,000 (and each following year) • These numbers of SAC units will cause the reserve to drop below the minimum balance.

  10. Use of Reserve Fund • Council Policy 3-2-5: Use of the minimum reserve shall be allowed only in an economic downturn or natural disaster and as approved by the Council. • Reserve balance on 12/31/07 was $72.2 million • Minimum balance on 12/31/07 was $35.2 million • Projected balance for 12/31/08 was $62 million;now $54 million
