from Water Utilities Account No. 410-40-210-5471-00-00-000, Regulatory Costs.

the City anticipates to receive an invoice with a projected budgetary impact of$45,000.00 for Fiscal
Year 2023 for the Water System Permit Fee.Due to time constraints,the Water Department is preparing
a resolution based off of estimates from TCEQ to prevent late fees.
