Mt. View Sanitary District

MVSD's wastewater treatment plant provides advanced secondary level treatment which includes sand filtration and ultraviolet disinfection for approximately 1.25 million gallons per day (mgd) of domestic and commercial wastewater; the plant has a design capacity of 3.2 mgd. The District manages 151 acres of constructed and natural marshland to provide for wastewater disposal. The treated effluent enters a constructed marshland west of I-680 known as Moorhen Marsh, flows to Peyton Slough, which then combines with surface runoff to supply natural marshland east of I-680 known as McNabney Marsh.

MVSD operates under a fiscal year budget cycle beginning July 1 and ending June 30. The District's financial planning covers three areas: Operations & Maintenance (O&M), Facilities Rehabilitation, and Capital Improvements. The O&M consist of salaries and benefits, general office expenses, equipment and supplies, repair and maintenance, contractual and professional services, utilities and debt service. Revenues include Sewer Service Charges, Ad Valorem Property Taxes, revenues from leases (Cellular Telephone Sites and Billboards), Development related fees (Plan Review, Inspection, Capacity, and Connection fees), and miscellaneous other fees and charges for services provided by the District.
