<br />.. <br /> <br /> <br />City of Centerville <br />March 29, 2002 <br />Page Seven <br /> <br />Special Revenue Funds <br /> <br />These funds are used to account for revenues derived from specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for <br />specific purposes. <br /> <br />The fund balances (deficits) of each at year end for 2001 and 2000 are as follows: <br /> <br />Cable TV <br />Recycling <br />City Celebration <br />Gambling Donation <br /> <br />$ <br /> <br /> Increase <br />2001 2000 (Decrease ) <br />26,286 $ 20,496 $ 5,790 <br />(10,628) (16,459) 5,831 <br />(34,962 ) (19,850) (15,112) <br />25.230 2.678 22.552 <br />5.926 $ !I3 135) $ ]906] <br /> <br />Fund <br /> <br />Total <br /> <br />$ <br /> <br />We recommended that the Recycling and City Celebration fund deficits be eliminated with transfers. The proposed entries <br />were provided to the City in January 2002 but the Council delayed action due to further research needed by City staff. <br /> <br />Debt Service Funds <br /> <br />A comparison of the assets of each fund and the remaining bonds outstanding at year end are as follows: <br /> Cash and <br /> Investment Tota] Bonds <br />Fund Balance Assets Outstanding Maturitv <br />Flood Plains Reduction $ 25,082 $ 31,303 $ 35,100 2002 <br />1979 Improvements 1,192 1,341 <br />1987 Improvements 30,685 37,106 100,000 2003 <br />1993 Acorn Creek Improvements (38,296 ) (25,892 ) <br />Municipal Bui]ding (90,361) (31,326) 112,732 2003 <br />Clearwater Meadows 143,349 148,848 94,900 2002 <br />Elementary School Water Extension 261,557 312,875 310,000 2008 <br />Parkview Deve]opment 463,165 480,589 510,000 2009 <br />G.O.

Through <br />research, the original assessment amount did not appear to be sufficient to pay all principal and interest. The City began <br />levying in 1997 for this bond and for the Municipal Building capital lease. The City will continue to transfer the amount <br />levied from the General to the 1987 Improvements and the Municipal Building funds. <br /> <br />The City made a final payment of project costs in the 1993 Acorn Creek Improvements fund. We recommended that this <br />fund along with the 1979 Improvements be closed with transfers in our prior management letter. These entries were also <br />provided to the City in January 2002 and delayed pending further research on some capital projects fund transfers. <br /> <br />During the audit we noted several debt transactions that were miscoded and duplicate payments. The duplicate payment was <br />a result of receiving two invoices for the same payment, but internal records should have caught the double billing. The City <br />has to establish a master list of all bond issues outstanding, the amounts due and the payment dates. Use of this list would <br />prevent prepayment and miscoding. <br />
