NBU’s FY2027 capital plan has a striking split: about $190 million of $244 million comes from debt sources that customer rates and other utility revenue support.
The adopted capital improvement plan assigns $244.2 million to FY2027 work. Its debt category combines roughly $140.7 million in projected new borrowing requirements with $49.4 million in proceeds from earlier borrowing. Those are budgeted funding sources, not a statement that NBU issued $190.1 million in new debt this year.

Where the money comes from
The FY2027 funding categories are $190.1 million in debt financing, $24.8 million in revenues or other available funds, $19.2 million in impact fees, $5.6 million in Texas Water Development Board funding, and $4.5 million in CIAOC contributions or grants. The figures are rounded in NBU’s plan. The three largest categories appear in the graphic above; the table includes the two smaller ones.
| Funding source | Amount |
|---|---|
| Debt financing | $190.1 |
| Revenues and other available funds | $24.8 |
| Impact fees | $19.2 |
| Texas Water Development Board funding | $5.6 |
| CIAOC contributions or grants | $4.5 |

The financial operating plan gives a closer view of the two largest lines: about $140.77 million in new-debt requirements and about $49.38 million in earlier debt proceeds. It also divides the roughly $24.8 million revenue-and-other line into about $18.51 million in revenue and about $6.27 million in transfers or CIP funds. Proceeds already on hand and a requirement for future borrowing are different things.
