Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifth Annual Report of the Water Commissioner: For the Year Ending Jan; 31, 1900 Dear Sir, - I submit herewith the fifth annual report of the Water Commissioner for the year ending January 31, 1900. I received my appointment as Water Commissioner on the 23d of December, and qualified on the 28th of December, 1899. As I did not assume the duties of the office until nearly the end of the financial year I shall not attempt to make any elaborate report on the operations of the department during the past year, but shall confine myself to a general statement of the financial condition of the department at the end of the year, as shown by the reports of the different heads of divisions, and shall make such suggestions as have occurred to me during my brief occupancy of the office. It appears by the statements herewith annexed that the total receipts from all sources during the year were $2,289, -739.50; less refunded water rates, $1906.87; making the net receipts $2,288,832.63. The total current expenditures of the Water Works from revenue for the year ending January 31, 1900, including interest on funded debt, sinking fund requirements, 1898-99, and the Metropolitan water assessment, were $1,992,581.91; leaving a balance, which was transferred to the general revenue of the city, of $296,250.72. In addition to this balance there is now due from other city departments for water about $218,000, which amount, if added to the above balance, would show a net surplus of $514,250.72.
