<br />-19- <br />STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES <br /> <br />The Statement of Activities tracks the City’s yearly revenues and expenses, as well as any other <br />transactions that increase or reduce total net position. These amounts represent the full cost of providing <br />services. The Statement of Activities provides a more comprehensive measure than just the amount of <br />cash that changed hands, as reflected in the fund-based financial statements. This statement includes the <br />cost of supplies used, depreciation of long-lived capital assets, and other accrual-based expenses. <br /> <br />The following table presents the change in the net position of the City for the years ended December 31, <br />2019 and 2018: <br /> <br />2018 <br />Program <br />Expenses Revenues Net Change Net Change <br />Governmental activities <br />1,337,262$ 392,923$ (944,339)$ (1,001,790)$ <br />2,471,567 960,220 (1,511,347) (1,477,024) <br />1,416,785 677,860 (738,925) 145,714 <br />798,717 109,531 (689,186) 626,237 <br />369,256 – (369,256) (391,156) <br />Business-type activities <br />2,295,820 2,412,370 116,550 730,977 <br />1,663,498 2,099,857 436,359 231,795 <br />513,209 851,273 338,064 341,395 <br />172,232 163,746 (8,486) (10,098) <br />Total net (expense) revenue 11,038,346$ 7,667,780$ (3,370,566) (803,950) <br />General revenues <br />Property taxes 3,793,754 3,578,894 <br />Tax increment collections 388,697 351,569 <br />Franchise taxes 100,464 101,237 <br />Unrestricted investment earnings 376,026 199,687 <br />Total general revenues 4,658,941 4,231,387 <br />Change in net position 1,288,375$ 3,427,437$ <br />2019 <br />Net (expense) revenue <br />General government <br />Public safety <br />Parks and recreation <br />Public works <br />Water <br />Recycling <br />Economic development <br />Sewer <br />Surface water management <br /> <br /> <br />One of the goals of this statement is to provide a side-by-side comparison to illustrate the difference in the <br />way the City’s governmental and business-type operations are financed. The table clearly illustrates the <br />dependence of the City’s governmental operations on general revenues, such as taxes and unrestricted <br />investment earnings. It also shows that, for the most part, the City’s business-type activities are <br />generating sufficient program revenues (service charges and program -specific grants) to cover expenses. <br />This is critical given the current downward pressures on the general revenue sources.
