Debt Service Funds <br />Debt Service funds are a type of governmental fund to account for the accumulation of resources for the payment of interest and <br />principal on debt (other than enterprise fund debt). <br />Debt Service funds may have one or a combination of the following revenue sources pledged to retire debt as follows: <br />• Property taxes - Primarily for general City benefit projects such as parks and municipal buildings. Property taxes may <br />also be used to fund special assessment bonds which are not fully assessed. <br />• Tax increments - Pledged exclusively for tax increment/economic development districts. <br />• Capitalized interest portion of bond proceeds - After the sale of bonds, the project may not produce revenue (tax <br />increments or special assessments) for a period of one to two years. Bonds are issued with this timing difference <br />considered in the form of capitalized interest. <br />• Special assessments - Charges to benefited properties for various improvements. <br />In addition to the above pledged assets, other funding sources may be received by Debt Service funds as follows: <br />• Residual project proceeds from the related capital projects fund <br />• Investment earnings <br />• State or federal grants <br />• Transfers from other funds <br />A comparison of the assets of each fund and the remaining bonds outstanding at year end are as follows: <br />Fund <br />Cash and <br />Temporary Total <br />Investments Assets <br />Bonds <br />Outstanding Maturity <br />309 <br />Joint Police Station 2012A <br />$ 68,084 <br />$ 73,886 <br />$ 330,000 <br />2021 <br />348 <br />G.O.
