Of this amount, revenue from governmental activities increased by $1.2 million or <br />0.9% and revenue from business -type activities inreased by $3.6 million or 20.0%.

Revenue from these charges saw an increase of $0.6 million. <br />Business -Type Activities saw an increase of $1.7 million most of which is attributed to the Water <br />Pollution Control Plant and Shoreline. <br />• Operating grants, capital grants, and contributions include Federal and State grants and other <br />government and private contributions, including impact fees.
