The JRYHUQPHQWZLGHILQDQFLDOVWDWHPHQWV are designed to provide readers with a broad -sector business. The VWDWHPHQWRIQHWSRVLWLRQ reported as QHWSRVLWLRQ. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The VWDWHPHQWRIDFWLYLWLHV net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, UHJDUGOHVVRIWKHWLPLQJRI UHODWHGFDVKIORZV. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave). Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenue (JRYHUQPHQWDODFWLYLWLHV) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (EXVLQHVVW\SHDFWLYLWLHV). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, economic development, culture and recreation, and interest on long-term debt. The business- type activities of the City include water, sewer, and storm water. The government-wide financial statements start on page 27 of this report. -15-
