• Estero Municipal Improvement District, CA - Wastewater Enterprise Surveillance Report (kbra.com) — Foster City residents are indirectly tied into a major wastewater upgrade through the San Mateo-Foster City Public Financing Authority, which secured a $66.9 million federal WIFIA loan for its share of the San Mateo treatment plant expansion. A new surveillance report highlights the district's very strong finances and liquidity, but also notes the relatively high debt burden supporting these long-term infrastructure improvements.
