<br />Changes in Net Position
<br />Years Ended December 31, 2018 and 2017
<br />Governmental Business-Type
<br />
<br />Governmental Activities – Current year operating results of governmental activities increased net
<br />position by $2,392,997, compared to an increase of $112,376 in the prior year. Changes from the prior
<br />year included the following:
<br />
<br />• Operating grants and contributions were down, due to a one-time reimbursement from Ramsey
<br />County for its share of a joint street project in the prior year.
<br />
<br />• Capital grants and contributions were up, due to significant assessments in the current year for
<br />street projects and due to contributions from Ramsey County and Bethel University for the trail
<br />project.
<br />
<br />• Public works spending was down in the current year, due to the contribution of capital assets to
<br />Ramsey County in the prior year for a multi-year street project accumulated by the City as part of
<br />the joint street project.
<br />
<br />Business-Type Activities – Current year operating results of business-type activities increased net
<br />position by $1,034,440, due to positive results of the utility operations of the City. The increase in capital
<br />grants and contributions noted above is due to a grant from the state for a utility project in the current
<br />year. Program revenues exceeded program expenses for each of the City’s business-type activities, except
<br />recycling.
