Financing the Acquisition of Castle Rock’s Water Rights and Infrastructure
Financing Assumptions for Castle Rock’s Water Rights • Castle Rock Economic Development projects population growth of 36,000 in the next 12 years. • The U.S. Census Bureau has an average household size in Colorado of 2.53 persons per household, or 14,229 households over the next 12 years. • For purposes of our financing analysis, we assumed approximately 9,200 households over the next 12 years: • 450 taps in 2013 • 550 taps in 2014 • 700 taps in 2015 • 833 taps thereafter, per year • Approximately 55% of tap fee revenues applied to water purchases (about the same as Castle Rock’s current Water Resource Fee). • Tap fees increase 4-5% annually to reflect inflation and cost increases • 5.5% interest cost. May be refinanced at any time without penalty
