The Kremmling Sanitation District is funded through a combination of property taxes and user fees. Property taxes are collected by Grand County and remitted to the district once a year.  Fees are collected from users of the wastewater collection and reclaimed water systems. A property's use classification determines its user fee, which is collected monthly. A one-time tap fee is collected from a property when it taps into the sewer line for the first time or when the use classification of the property changes.  

Property taxes pay for the administrative functions of the district, user fees pay for the maintenance and improvement of the wastewater collection and reclaimed water systems, and tap fees pay for costs related to growth and development. The district collects 2.273 mils of assessed value on each property located within the district.

The district may only increase its property taxes after an affirmative vote of the district's eligible electors. The service and tap fees are set by the Board of Directors and are modified at their direction. The district must comply with Colorado's local government budget laws. The Board of Directors must annually adopt a balanced budget, and the district can have no deficit. All expenditures must be paid for by the property taxes and user and tap fees, and any funds carried over from one year to the next. The district applies for grants from state and federal programs that impact district operations. 

A public hearing is held each November by the Board of Directors to consider the next year's budget and make any modifications to the user and tap fees. Modifications to the user and tap fees may also occur throughout the year, but only after a public hearing held by the Board of Directors. The public is invited to participate in all public hearings. 

As stewards of public funds, the district takes its financhal obligations seriously and, in compliance with state law, conducts an annual independent audit of its books and records and makes the same open for public inspection. Copies of all financhal documents are filed with the Division of Local Government and the Office of the State Auditor.
