Apache Junction City Council members, serving as the Apache Junction Water Utilities Community Facilities District board, are slated to discuss and vote on a tentative $5 million budget May 16. The meeting begins at 6 p.m. at the council chambers, 300 E. Superstition Blvd.
A $5,040,775 budget has been proposed, with expenditures of $2,131,210 for administration and $2,909,565 for system operations.
Expected revenue is $4,501,500, with an additional $539,275 from savings.
