2025-2026 Budget Plan (Amended April 1, 2025) [PDF]
The Imperial Irrigation District Board of Directors approved its first biennial budget for the period 2025-2026. In 2024, IID transitioned to a two-year budget cycle to allow for better planning and certainty. As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance financial transparency and sustainability, IID presents this budget amendment to address the rate update approved by the IID Board of Directors in January 2025. The rate update is a critical component of the funding strategy that will allow IID to continue meeting the evolving needs of our communities, support critical infrastructure investments, and maintain the high level of service that our customers have come to expect. The rate update aligns with IID’s long-term strategic plan and reflects both current fiscal realities and the need for continued growth and development in the power sector.
A key element of IID's growth strategy is strengthening its governance framework, which is crucial for effective decision-making and accountability. The biennial budget prioritized the development of transparent processes, compliance mechanisms and ethical oversight to ensure IID is well-prepared to face future challenges; these priorities are also reflected in the budget amendment. Through its enhanced governance structure, IID aims to engage all stakeholders more actively, foster collaboration across departments, and streamline its operations for greater efficiency and impact.
With this budget amendment, IID reaffirms its commitment to driving positive change by dedicating resources to innovation, capacity building, and infrastructure improvement. These investments will enable IID to address immediate needs while positioning the organization for long-term success. The rate update provides the financial foundation to support these vital initiatives, which include strengthening the system, incorporating new technologies, enhancing data and analytics capabilities, and developing programs that address both current and emerging demands.
IID believes this budget and the corresponding rate update position the Power Department and the organization to address today's challenges while preparing for future success. This amendment reflects the optimism that, through careful planning, sound governance, and strategic transformation, we will continue making a lasting and positive impact on the communities we serve.
