For an overview of the legal framework and accounting concepts that apply to the oper- <br />ation of an enterprise fund, please refer to Appendix B. <br />The appropriations addressed in this article cover the complete operating costs of the respective enterpris- <br />es with the exception of indirect costs, which are appropriated under Article 4. The following discussion <br />will focus on the anticipated expenses and revenues of the enterprise funds for FY2016 and issues they <br />raise. Capital appropriations are addressed in Articles 10 (Recreation Capital), 14 (Water System Im- <br />provements) and 15 (Wastewater System Improvements). <br /> <br />1 <br /> The mission of the Recreation Enterprise Fund has been expanded to include the recreational operations and <br />programs for the New Community Center, and it has accordingly been renamed the Recreation and Community <br />Programs Enterprise Fund. <br />2 <br /> Final MWRA assessments issued in June, typically a bit smaller than the preliminary assessments, are used to set <br />water and sewer rates during the Town’s annual rate-setting process in the fall.
