Summary of Work Session
Present were Mayor Mary Capra, Council members Michelle Lakso, Richard Terway,
Jeff Paar and Tom Lee. Also present were Mark Statz, engineer, and Kurt Glaser, City
attorney.
The Council reviewed the special assessment policy as it related to possible assessments
to the property on Old Mill Road that is being proposed for improvement by Jeff Hanzel.
The Council agreed that Mr. Hanzel should absorb a larger than normal share to
encourage the other property owners to participate without objection. The City would
probably be willing to defer part of the cost to some of the properties, but in order to
make sure that assessments are sustainable, the petitioning party must absorb a higher
cost.
The Council discussed the downtown redevelopment and specifically the possibility of
purchasing key parcels if they come up for sale. The City administrator will keep in
touch with property owners and bring it to the attention of the Council if properties
become available for sale, and if possible, bring sale offers to the city in the form of an
option agreement.
The Council briefly discussed CSAH 14. A draft Joint Powers Agreement will be offered
by Anon County in about two weeks.
The Council discussed compensation for mayor and council. The last change was
adopted in 1974. Staff was instructed to prepare a draft ordinance increasing
compensation to $400 for mayor and $325 for council. Also an ordinance was requested
that would prohibit anyone from applying for employment in the positions of
administrator, finance director and public works director for two years after leaving
council.
The Council reviewed schedules for summer meetings to determine if a quorum would be
present at all regular meetings.
The Council discussed capital projects and specifically as to whether the City should
consider an alternative public works garage site to allow the existing site for some kind
of commercial use. Staff will continue to study the issue.
The meeting was adjourned at 10:30 p.m.
Dallas Larson, City Administrator

12. Authorize Grant Application - Safe Routes to School
City Administrator Larson indicated that this is for the under crossing at Clearwater
Creek and said that Staff would like to make a grant application as an attempt to obtain
funding. He then said that the other issue is the idea of taking this a step further to add a
crossing of the creek and sidewalk to move students to school. He further suggested a
crossing north of the proposed under crossing to make this a more complete plan for
moving kids to school.
Mayor Capra indicated that about 12 years ago a bridge discussion for that area came up
and they asked the City to buy a lot where there is now a house to get the kids to school
and Council did not want to do so at that time. She then asked whether easements are in
place.
City Administrator Larson indicated that there are issues with that to work out but that
would service a lot of area. He then said that if there is a way to do a combined
application Staff would like to look into that to do a project to the north and south to
service a lot of kids.
City Engineer Statz indicated that a 10 foot culvert is required but they may be able to do
an eight foot so it is wise to apply for the funding and then look further into the costs and
the logistics of making the under crossing work.

Council Meeting Minutes
June 14,2006
Mayor Capra indicated that people have used the argument that there is no sidewalk or
designated area to walk to get busing for their kids rather than having them walk.
City Administrator Larson asked for authorization to apply for some, all, or none.
Council Member Lee indicated he would like to stick with the first phase as it is too
expensive to do it all at once.
Council Member Paar indicated that the under crossing is the most important to him and
would service the most people especially since 14 is being reconstructed.
Council Member said he likes the idea but does not think the City can afford it or the
underpass but the underpass is necessary. He then said that he would like to apply for the
underpass but let them know that the intent is to do the northerly one as Phase ll.
Mayor Capra indicated she would like to see it as high and wide as possible for safety, if
it is possible to do. She then said that it may be possible to move it uphill because the
house on the corner may be removed as part of the road reconstruction project.
Council Member Terway thanked Staff for the suggestion and forward thinking but said
he feels the underpass is most important at this time and with the other projects going at
this time there is too much going on.
City Engineer Statz indicated that there has not been a formal feasibility report on this
and it may not be able to be done.

City Administrator Larson indicated that this was discussed previously to upsize the water
main to allow for looping in the future and the property owner's expectation was to put in a
six inch service from the County Road 54 to the east but the expected increase cost to make it
an 8 inch water main would be about $15,000 plus engineering services and administrative
costs.

Mayor Capra asked what could be done to lessen the impact to the larger property owners.
City Administrator Larson indicated that there are ways to work it out to delay the impact or
lessen the impact and that will be discussed further at the work session.
Engineer Statz suggested assessing the full amount but deferring it until they want to develop
the property.

4. Sex Offender Ordinance
City Attorney Glaser indicated that he and the Chief discussed the matter and the Chief feels
that there would be a public safety benefit and it should only be for level three offenders with
the reason being that data practices and privacy laws those are the only offenders that the
public is allowed to know about. He then said that the ACLU may challenge such an ordinance.
Mayor Capra indicated that she would like all three cities to do it if the City is going to. She
then said that this should go before the Police Commission and obtain authorization from the
other cities.
IX. ANNOUNCEMENTSIUPDATES
1. City Administrator. Mr. Dallas Larson

City of Centerville
Council Meeting Minutes
June 14,2006
city Administrator Larson indicated that there is an issue with curb stops in the Hunter's
Crossing second addition and when the specs were written it included extension rods on
water shutoffs but when the contractor installed the curb shutoffs in the subdivision they
overlooked the pins for a large share of them and some have been fixed but
approximately 6 remain.
The Contractor indicated that the information was on site in the spec book that they want
a rod but when the superintendent on site spoke with the engineering inspector and asked
whether they wanted rods he said no so they did not put them in but after the fact it was
found that they did Want them and then they began installing them. He then said that the
super was not aware of it until this point because if they had known they would have told
them to fix it right. He further said it was overlooked and it is a very minor dollar thing
but more of a misunderstanding.
The contractor indicated that they will dig up the lawns and fix them if that is what is
wanted but they did not want to bother people. He then said that there are six that they
want dug up.
Staff explained that the Contractor has offered to forfeit $4,000 of his $8,000 retainer left.
The Contractor indicated that they would purchase the longer rod and give it to the City.
Council Member Terway indicated that his concern is there is a process set up that if this
happens you get specific truck and tools and having some that are different and then the
system does not work then more .damage could occur. He then said that from an
operational standpoint he feels that this could be even worse if it is outside the system.
He further said he would like it fixed to be standardized.
City Administrator Larson agreed that they should be fixed but said that there is at least
one of these shutoffs that is a small distance away from a very expensive stamped
concrete driveway and there are soils out there that are notoriously unstable and his
concern on this one is that as hard as you try, the soils could be moved under the high
priced driveway and now there is a $15,000 driveway that breaks up and the warranty is
up and the City has an issue.
Council Member Terway indicated he would make an exception for that one but he thinks
the others should be done.
City Engineer Statz indicated that the riser would be in there and it would start out with
short and Staff would only need the long one if it pulled off
Council Member Terway indicated that, if there is a fail safe other than a pin, then he
would not have an issue.

City Attorney Glaser suggested having the engineer look at the device to see if it will
work appropriately.
City Engineer Statz indicated that Mr. Patzer objected to the ring idea but there could be
a modification that can be made.
Mayor Capra said she would be fine with that.

,ttY. ~les - 4. ~US - JlPf&J:). ~9ti9D WYie4r
Council Member Paar said he feels it should be fixed the way it was supposed to be.
City Administrator Larson indicated that they looked into the 2004 bond cash flow
shortage. He then said that the initial estimates were higher than costs bid and the
estimated assessments were 41% of the estimated costs so when the bids and costs
resolved came in lower 41% was used rather than look at what the City should pay 41 %
of total project costs so less money was assessed than what should have been.
City Administrator Larson indicated that Staff will look into funding the remainder
noting that over the life of the bond, the short fkll is $160,000 and Staft'will come back
with recommendations for funding it.
City Administrator Larson indicated that every year the grass dies along the edge of the
sidewalk and Staff reseeds it. He then said that Staff would like Council to consider a
row of sod on each side of the sidewalk to clean up the bare spot at a cost of $695.
Mayor Capra indicated this will happen every year from salt and plowing and she would
rather landscape the side against the building and wait on the other side.
Council agreed to wait.

regarding it.
City Attorney Glaser indicated that the City could post signs there for no fishing but
would need county permission to install the signs.
Mayor Capra indicated she would like to take photographs of the situation and show the
County the issue.

1. The City hereby grants Landowners permission to encroach into the City's
easement to the extent indicated on the Certificate of Survey attached hereto as EXHIBIT "A".

3. Landowners, for themselves, their heirs, successors and assigns, hereby agree to
defend, indemnifY and hold the City harmless from all costs and expenses, claims and liability,
including attorney fees, relating to or arising out of the grant to Landowners of permission to
encroach into the City's easement. Landowners further agree to indemnifY and hold the City
harmless from any damage caused to the Subject Property as a result of maintenance of the
City's easement, including any damage to the structure caused in whole or part by the
encroachment into the City's easement.
4. The City does not warrant title or guarantee the continuing right of Landowners to
maintain the Structure in the City's easement.

is damaged to more than fifty percent (50%) of its fair market value, as measured immediately
prior to the damage.
6. The City may direct removal of the Structure, at the Landowners' sole cost and
expense, upon thirty (30) days written notice if the City determines that the Structure will
interfere with City's use of the easement or if Landowner has failed to comply with any city
requirements associated with the encroachment. If the removal is not completed by Landowner
within the time prescribed, the City may remove the encroachment at Landowner's expense and
Landowner agrees that the City may collect the costs of such removal as a special assessment

In 2005, the department was excited by the decision oftbe OovemiDg Boant to build our
new police facility at the pic-sbaped comer of North Road and Lake Drive. The location
of our police department is a highly vistble area more centrally located for the cities we
serve. I am grateful to all our cities' City Administrators, Mayors aDd Couneilmmrtbers
for their leadership with all that was involved wi1h Betting this buiJdiDg built I waDt to
especially thank Cilcle Pines City Administrator Tun Keinath for all the work he
accomplished with his staft mayor and council to obtain clearance on this land which
bad complicated ownership issues. Administrator KeiDatb. bad to worlt through many
title and land control issues with this property and I was impressed with his ability and
determination to make this property work for 0lU' police department
The entire year of 2005 was a whirlwind of activity which meant at least three meetings a
week to coordinate buildiDg issues. All of the department's employees were involved in
some capacity with the buiJ~ but I especially want to thank the members of the
Building Committee: Inv-tiptor Russ Blanck, Captain Ron NelaoDs J\dmini!llt8tive
Assistant Cindy Lewis, and Patrol Sergeants Pat Aldrich and B.l. Stepan; who took on
additional tasks beyond their day to day police assignments. Russ Blanck was the "Bo-to
guy" for most of the issues reJated to the building. To appreciate InvPJdiptor Blanck's
work you have to view the three large 3 ring binder notebooks which contain hundreds of
memoes, e-mails and notes concemiDg the building. As Russ bas commented many
times, "This building project has become a labor of love". TbaDks Russ, I am proud of
your commitment and accomplisbments on this building. I want to tb8nk the entire
department for their efforts during the move to our new building. As the Building
Committee worked on the building issues; the clerical staft: community service officers
and patrol officers did a great job providing excellent service to our citizens. We started
our move into the new building in early January 2006 and we continue to make
corrections and adjustments as we go. You will be impressed with the technology and
the safety afforded by our new building.
The department lost three officers in 2005. Joseph Dick and Colby Bragg went to the St
Paul Police DepaJtment and Dale Bernardy to the Blaine Police Department. Two
Community Service Officers were also hired by other police departmeDts. Matthew
Noren was hired by Fridley PD as an Officer and Brad Remy went to Cottage Grove PD
as a CSOlParamedic. Although it was hard to see these ofticcn leave, we are excited
about addi~g three new officers: Andy Dixon. Bill Jacobson and Aron ~ In our
clerical and records DI8D8geIIlent area, Susan Bakke was a 'WOIIder:fbl replacement for Joy
Ilammer, who retired. Each of our DeW employees offers unique sIdUs, abilities aud
eIl1'JMiasm to better our police depertmcm. As you have read - people make
orpDizations - and I am proud of the talents of each person in this Police DepeItment.

A LCOHOL AND TOBACCO COMPLIANCE
In 2005 the Centennial Lakes Police Department conducted two alcohol compliance
checks of all licensed alcohol establishments in the cities of Centerville, Circle Pines
and Lexington. A total of two businesses failed the compliance checks because. they
did not check identification prior to selling alcohol to an underage buyer. Officers
have observed an increase in alcohol providers checking identification prior to the sale
of alcohol.
Officers also noted an increase in identification checb being done prior to the sale of
tobacco. Officers completed two tobacco compliance checks of all the licensed tobacco
establishments in the three cities. Only one business failed the tobecco compliance
checks for the year 2005.
We would like to thank all the establishments for continuing in their efforts to keep the
youth of Centerville, Circle Pines and Lexington safe and healthy by not seUing alcohol
or tobacco to anyone under the legal age limit.

COMMUNITY ORIENTED POLICING
n
Community Oriented Policing or C.O.P. is a parbk;.ship created between the police,
citizens and businesses designed to detect and deter crime. It was born out of the
reali_on that without public assistance, a majority of crime figJrtil\g would remain
reactive rather than proactive.
Advancements in technology have removed the Patrol Officer from foot patrol, limiting
the contact with citizens. Officers in effect become less approacbabIe to the typical
citizen. As the divide between officers and citizens increased, both groups became
aware of a need for better communication. C.O.P. programs were implemented to
nMtaHze the relatioDSbip and reopen Jines of communication.
The CentenniaJ Lakes Police Department bas a stroDg commitment to C.O.P. The cities
of Circle Pines, Lexington and Centerville are divided into seven pa1IoI areas. Each
year, two officers are assigned to one of these areas for the sole pmpose of performing
C.O.P. activities. These officers interact with community crime watch prevention
groups, participate and assist in organi7.i"8 special events, meetings and forums, and
make a special effort to meet citizens and business owners to learn their particular
needs.
Co..uity OrieBted PoJieiaa Aras (Grids)
Our officers are problem solving resources for our communities. They are trained in
Community Oriented Policing and are eager to assist with concerns within their
assigned grids. Orids are specifically defined areas that the d~tment uses to gather
statistics and track problem areas. The following table identifies each grid, its location,
and the assigned officers.

In addition to vehicle patrol, officers 1dili7,ed foot and bicycle patrol (when weather
permitted) in areas where both serious as wen as nuisance violations were likely to occur
(e.g. parks, playing fields, parades, etc.).
C.O.P. is not a new program. Police Departments' re-commitment to Community
Oriented Policing philosophies reflects ehsmging times, attitudes, and the overall
awareness that crime fighting and the resulting increases in safety and quality of life
requires a cooperative effort between the police and the people they protect and serve.
The Centennial Lakes Police Department is proud of its C.O.P. efforts to date, and loob
forward to additional C.O.P.-related successes in the future.
If you bave any suggestions to improve our Community Oriented Policing, please let us
know.

C RIME PREVENTION
Crime Prevention is a critical part of our community and involves many aspects of
Community Oriented PoHcing to benefit our cities. Neighborhood Crime Watch groups
play a big role in assisting our officers with keeping our neighborhoods safe.
N.~"" ~iIIl' ~t
National Night Out is held on the fb:st Tuesday in August every year. This year our cities
had another great turn out. Our officers visited numerous scheduled blocJc parties in
Circle Pines, Lexington and Centerville. Residents were able to speak to officers about
crime concerns and new events in the community. Bicycle helmets were handed out by
officers to remind everyone of the importance of bike safety in our neighborhoods.
Coloring boob, pencils, and baseball cards were also haft(led out to children in an effort
to promote safety and crime prevention.
Nehdaborlaood C....e Watda
Neighborhood Crime Watch groups bring neighbors together in hopes of preventing
crime in their communities. These orpni7.ed groups watch out for one another. In order
to stay active in the Crime Watch orpni7'Jltion these groups must hold meetings twice a
year, one ofwbich may be held on National Night Out. We are hoping to add many
more of our residents to these Neighborhood Crime Watch groups in 2006.
Bievde Lice_II
The Centennial Lakes PoHce Depertment urges residents to Hcense their bicycles. These
Hcenses are issued at the police department at no cost to residents of Lexington, Circle
Pines aud Centerville. This makes the recognition of recovered property easier for the
department. Bicycle licenses are a part of crime prevention. Officers and eso's have
spent time displaying safety equipment for bicycles and teaching proper band AigPAl~, as
well as bicycle laws of the mad. Bicycle helmets have been distributed to children who
do not own ODe.

This year a modified Drug Abuse Resistance Education (D.A.R.E.) program was
taught to the fifth grade class at Centerville Elementary School. D.A.R.E. was used
to supplement the pelSOD8l safety pI'OJl'8IIl provided by the school district as pert of
its health curriculum. The program highlighted the portions of the D.AR.E.
curriculum that have proven to be most meaningful to students over the past five
years I taught it at Centerville Elementary School. This "best of the D.A.R.E.
program" was taught to over 100 fifth grade students.
The D.A.R.E. curriculum is life sldlls-based, focusing on, among other things,
personal development, good decision-maJnllg, pressures likely to be experienced to
use drugs, and pelSOD8l accountability. Students learn about self-esteem, decision-
mA1ciqg skills, and the value of parental trust. Heavy emphasis is placed upon
recognizing and accepting the consequences of their decisions.
This year students were again given the opportunity to view, up close, an exhibition
"crash" vehicle. Students were provided a first hand view of the consequences of
driving while under the iDfluence. Judging by the students' comments during the
preseotation, this segment was quite an eye opener. Additionally, students were
visited by a panel of high school."role models" who explained to the students how
they were able to avoid the daD&ers of drugs while still having a full participatory
school experience with friends of a like mind. The students also received training
regarding the scourge of methamphetamine and were visited by the Minnesota State
Patrol helicopter.
The value of the DAR.E. program, even if it helps but a single child to avoid chug
activity, cannot be overstated. I am proud to have again served as the department's
DAR.E. officer.

FIREARMS
Most members of the public are likely unaware the the Minnesota Police Officer
Standards and Training Board (POST). the entity that sets the guidelines for. among other
tb.iDgs. police ot1ier traini,,& ODly requires licensed police officers to qualify once per
year with their duty weapons. Our department has always exceeded this minimum
requirement. and 2005 was no exception. In fact, 2005 can be best characterized as a
~gressive" year for the department's firearms program.
In 2005 the firearms instructors focused on a new one-on-one training program developed
at the end of 2004. The program emphasi2zd the dynamic nature of Jaw enforcement-
related shooting encounters, moving away from the traditional static firing position
approach, and focusing on shooting while moving. The movement emphasized included
enpgjng surprise rapidly approaching threats in confined spaces such as smal1 rooms and
hallways in houses and apartments. The program was popular with the officers not only
because of additional training time, but because of the individullllRd attention. The
firearms instructors were also able to view officers' weapons handling skills and shooting
abilities and provided focused training and commentary. This training was also "budget
friendly" as it was only held on "open range" days - flee all day access days to the
outdoor range maintained by Anoka County for the benefit of all agencies in the county.
Officers again attended the annual Gamma Shoot, a "shoot-no shoot" decision-mAlnng
focused interactive video live fire qualification ~ and the annual Low Light/Adverse
Weather Shoots offered through the consortium of Anoka County law enforcement
agencies and their firearms instructors. Officers also attended a department-issued squad
rifle shoot. Officers were also encouraged to practice their firearms skills at the
designated "open range" dates. As an incentive to officers to practice their firearms skills
at the open range dates on their own time the department offered department ammunition
for use as well as the attendance of a department firearms instructor.
In 2005 the department continued to emp~ 1raiDing in responding to "active
shooters" in general, and at schools in particular. Officers attended a training session
sponsored by the Lino Lakes Police Department at the CenteDDial Middle School in the
spring &lid a similar training for both departments sponsored by us at the Centervi1le
Elementary School in the 00.

The dcpaitment's 200S investigative fimction was multi-faceted. My primary
responsibility this put ycar was oveneein& OIl a daily basis, the CODStructi.on of the
depertmeot's new facility. My bdgrouud as a retired litigator with significant
experieace in die field of eonstn.Jedon made that ~ logical. (See a separate
section of this annual .report addressing the new buildi"8) Nonetheless, I continued
to tbr1her the department's investigation ftmction by miew:ing officer reports and
teletypes as wen as cr:im.inal alerts from other dqNktn.mts to develop "intcUigcqceM
directly relevant to our depertmeot's mission. I also taught D.A.R..E. during the first

Additionally, when possible, I continued to CODduct interviews of victims, witnesses
and suspects, prepare cr:im.inal prosecution charging documents, sign in-custody
complaints, prepare affidavits to permit the continued detention of amstees, and

I also coDducted background investigations of police officer candidates and
adminildrative candidates in 2005. Additionally, I CODducted 56 investigations of
iDdividuals !IN'!lri11g permits from the department to purchase fin:arms.

All officers within the Centermj~ Lakes Police Department have, at minimum, a First
RespoDde.r level of medical flaining F'JrSt Responder 1J:aining is specifically designed
for those in professions which mspond to emergency medical reqursts. The training
provided instructs responders in the use of various types of medical equipment;
including but not limited to, Automatic BxtemaI Defibrillators (AED), oxygen
equipment and management, b1-ti"B control and spine stabilization equipment.
Centennial Lakes Police Department prides itself in the level of training aud
proficiency of our officers in response to medical emergencies.
For the year 2005, officers responded to 292 requests for medical _stance. AEDs
are a specific device Iltili7.ed only in cases of cardiac arrest. Prior to the introduction
of AEDs into emergency medicine, survival rate of unconscious victims of cardiac
arrest was less tban 10%. In 2005 officers used the AIDs four times on victims of
cantiac arrest. Two of those victims are alive today because of AED use and quick
response BDd recognition of the emergency by officers. Four officers were presented
with Life Saver awards for their work on these incidents. Lexington Fire
Department's Chief Paul Pechan was also presented a Life Saver award for his
assistance on one of the incidents.
Our officers also recognize the support and assistaDce of the CentJ!nnial Fire
Department, the Lexington Fire Department aDd, of course, North Ambulance and
AIIiDa Ambulance Services. We are proud of the incredible work done by these
agencies and we are always striving to improve the service provided to our
communities.

A sigDifi~ if not the most sigoificant event for the department in 2005 Was the

structure, ~ the cumulative eftOrt and mion of ID8Il)' people over a several
year period.
To say that buildi", the DeW facility was a "team effort" would be an undentattment
of epic proportions. Beginni", in January and extending tIuougbout the entire year, a
core group of individuals 'WOrbcl tirelessly to dot fNfIrJ "i" and cross fNfIrJ "t" in the
CODSttuction proc:css. In addition to the professioaals raaiDcd for the project, Circle
Pines City Manager Jim KeiDath and departmeat penoDD.el including Chief Makela.
Captain Nelson, AdminildrBtive AssiJtsmt Cindy Lewis aDd I met weekly, aDd often
more Iiequeotly, ~ tbe CODStruction. City Manager Keinath deserves special

The new building is state-of-the-art and includes, among other 1hiDgs, a large

One of the more appreciated features of the building is its en~ security for

P OUCE RESERVES
Officer Jason Corlew
This year was, once again, a year of change for the Reserves. I would like to
highlight the Reserves that have made this program a success. Reserve Officer Karen
Miller has been a pillar of the Reserve Unit. Reserve Officer Miller has put in
countless bours assisting the police officers of our department aod always has a
positive attitude wbile carrying out the duties of a reserve officer. Due to her great
orpni7Ation and leadership, we have a successful reserve unit. Reserve Officer Bill
Jacobson has also put countless bours into serviDg his community aod the department.
Reserve Officer Jacobson was recently hired as a police officer with this department
and is a great addition to 0lU'depu1ment. Reserve Officer Aron Sandmar4p has been a
long-time resident of Circle Pines and bas taken an interest in serving the community
he lives in; he was hired as a police officer with this department shortly after he
started training with our reserve program. He, too, is a great addition to the
department. Reserve Officer MoDique Sahlstrom bas always been 'just a phone call
away" from assisting any of our officers. She enjoys riding along with and assisting
all of the officers and staff of this department.
I have asked Officer Matthew Langreck to assist me with the running of the reserve
program this year. Officer Langreck is a great addition to the program and bas
brought with him new ideas for training and operating the unit.
Our focus over the last year was to train reserve officers to better serve the police
officers and the residents of this community. To do this, I have asked each reserve
officer to commit one night a month for training. Each meeting we hold bas a
selected topic. Officers from the department teach the classes, that way each officer
has a chance to share their specialty with the reserves.
The Reserve Unit has contributed a total of 798 hours to the department in the
following areas:
Reserve activities:
. Ride alongs with pa1rol officers
· Inventorying of vehicles, securing crime scenes, assisting officers in day-to-
day activities
. Patrol of neighborhoods and parks
. Checking homes and businesses
. Assisting with Patrol Officer candidate interviews

REDATORY OFFENDER REGISTRY
Officer Aron Sandmann
Officer Bill Jacobson
The Predatory Otfender Registry (POR) is maitWUned by the ~i~ Bureau of
Criminal Appnmension (DCA). The registry was created to monitor predatory
offenders in the state of Minnesota. Predatory offenders are pbu:ed into categories
retmed to by the DCA as Level I, Level U, and Level m. Level I otTeoders ate
conside.red least likely to re-otfend. Level m offenden are considered most likely to
re-otTend.
The Ccn~iaI Lakes Police Department JDODiton the individuals raiding within
Ceutmille, Circle Pio.es. aucI Lexiaatcm who ate listecl on. the Predatory Offeo.der
Registry. The list of registered predatory offenders residing in our communities is
updated montbly. At any given time, there are approximately twenty-five offenders
residing within the three cities. This number is fluid as offenders are constandy
moving in and out of our cities.
In addition to monthly updates, officers made tine contacts during 200S with each
offeoder at their registered address to verify that the offenden were in compliance
with the state's fe&istration requirements.
The Centennial Lakes Police Department will continue to keep a current list of the
predatory offeoders living in our jurisdiction and continue to make contact with the
offenders at their registered addresses to verify that the offenders are compliant.

AFE AND SOBER
Sergeant Pat Aldrich
During the year 2005, the Centennial Lakes Police Department c:ompleted the second
of a two year grant awarded by MiDnesota Safe and Sober. Our c:lepertment joined
nine other agencies ftom Anoka County who 'Wa'C awarded a cnnt for a total of
$60,000 for the two years.
Many of the scheduled dates of enforcement were planned around the holidays.
During the enforcement periods our officers were required to focus on five areas of
~ which were spearheaded by the Safe and Sober initiative. Those areas were:
. Aggressive driving
. Impaired chiving
· The "Not a Drop" law, which focused on underage drinkers
. Seatbelt enforcement
. Inattentive driving
The overtime shifts were four hours in length. The start times of the shift would
depend on which area of concern was targeted. Officers workiDg a seatbelt
enforcement shift would normally work during high traftic times of the day. An
officer working an impaired driving enforcement shift would usually start at 11:00
p.m. and WOJk until 3:00 am.
In 2005 offieers worked a total of 47 Safe and Sober hours. Officers made 129 traffic
stops during those 10 shifts. We recorded 85 citations and 3 DWI arrests. Officers
also issued in excess of ISO traffic warnings. Officers also participated in the May
and November seatbelt mobilizatioDS. In May our officers cited 203 occupatlts for
seatbelt violations. That astronomical total was recorded as the sixth bighest total for
any reporting department in the state.
In 2005 the Ceotemdal Lakes Police Department also joiDed with the Minnesnta State
Patrol on several overtime waves throughout the county. The waves were held in
several jurisdictions of the participating agencies. Officer Fruetel, on two separate
Operation Nightcap shifts, achieved the "bat trick" award. He bad 3 DWI arrests
during each of those two shifts.
With the statistics shown, our officers once again did a tremendous job enforciDg the
Safe and Sober initiatives. With the continued leadasbip, along with the new youth
and enthus1,tnn of officers, our efforts show how important traftlc safety is to our
communities.

~ PEEDENFORCEMENTANDRADAR
In 2005 the department continued its aggressive aDd proactive approach to reduciDg
~. on the snets of Centerville, Circle Pines and Lexington. This campaign
.-in. ~ilJg motorists is ma"-irted to increase safety and reduce vehicle accidents
on our roads. Stops iDitiatecl for speed not only led to ~i. eitati.oDs. but also resulted
in citations being issued for driving without a valid driver's license violatioDs, insurance
vioIati~ drug and weapons charges, and warrant arrests.
In 2005 0WemUaJ Lakes police officers issued a total of637 citations for ~.. 'Ibis
total reflects a 76 percent inaase in such citations from 2004. This total does not
incIude situations wJ1en, the origiDal reason for the traffic stop was speed but other more
significant violations were ~1.11y charged.
Officers reacted to public input by directing speed enforcement in areas that were deemed
problem spots by residents. Officers also maintailJed a high visibility in school zones
when students were coming to aDd ftom school in an attempt to help avoid any traffic-
related incidents resu1tiDg from sp-o-ding or reckless motorists.
The Centennial Lakes Police Department utili7M two new state of the art "Stalker" dash-
mounted radar units in their enforcement efforts. 1bis new technology helps officers
perform with more accuracy aDd precision when attempting to single out a certain
violator from a large group of traffic. Two additional new radar units will be added in
early 2006. The majority of the Centennial Lakes Police fleet continues to use older, but
still functional, radar technology. Officers also have at their disposal a baDd-held speed
measuring laser device.

T RAINING
Sergeant Pat Aldric1r
Providing high quality and cost-effective training for the Centennial Lakes Police
pc:I8ODIIel COJdinued to be a high priority in 2005. ProfessiODBl training benefits the
officers, the cIepartmaJt. aod tile cnaJlft)\JIIities in which. we sene. 'lbe depetllWDt
benefits by having well-trained police officers, minimi~ depeItmeDt liability. The
commUDi1ies also reali2e the benefits of having officers who have a we1l-rouDded
bese ofknow1edge and experience in a variety of are8S.
1be M~ State Peace Officers StaDdards aud Training Board (p.O.S.T.) aDd the
federal government through the Occupational Safety aDd Heal1h Administration
(OSHA), continue to place additioDal training lIIIIDdates on law ~ Our
department continues to identify aDd use its resources to accomplish comp1iaDce with
these staDdards.
DuriDg 2005, officers continued to utilize Mdaily tniniug". DuriDg each duty shift,
officers are required to complete a topic -"red for that day. MOlt of the seheduled
training topics could be considered "high riskIlow hquency" evads. This training
allows officers to reftesh their knowledge and Jeview proper procedures to be
prepared for intiequent. events. Many m~ated information requirements are
covered with the daily training propam. With this program we continue to add
additional topics as our legislators continue to pass laws that are extremely
complicated, unfunded, and have very little guidance regarding proper criminal
pmcedure for ot1icers to foUow.
In 2005 this depertment teamed with Lino Lakes Police Department on two occasions
for seeaario-based active shooter training. The training sessions were held at
elementary schools and allowed citizens to act as role players. Simulated ammunition
was used to create more realistic situations.
The foUowing is alist of msmd.tM topics and professional training courses attlmded

Honorable Mayor and Council
City of Centerville, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the
aggregate remaining fund infonnation of the City of Centerville, Minnesota (the City) for the year ended December 31,2005 and
have issued our report thereon dated May 4, 2006. Professional standards require that we provide you with the following
information related to our audit.
Our Responsibility Under Auditing Standards Generally Accepted in the United States of America
As stated in our engagement letter, our responsibility, as described by professional standards, is to plan and perform our audit to
obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement and are fairly
presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Because an audit is
designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance and because we did not perform a detailed examination of all
transactions, there is a risk that material errors, fraud or illegal acts may exist and not be detected by us.
In planning and perfonning our audit of the financial statements of the City, for the year ended December 31, 2005, we considered
its internal control in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control. However, we noted certain matters involving the internal control
and its operation that we consider to be reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the
design or operation of internal control that, in our judgment, could adversely affect the City's ability to record, process,
sunnnarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions ofmanagernent in the financial statements. We noted the
following reportable condition:
Segregation of Duties
Our study and evaluation disclosed that because of the limited size of your office staff, the City has limited segregation of
duties. A good internal control structure contemplates and adequate segregation of duties so that no one individual handles
transactions from inception to completion. While we recognize that the City is not large enough to permit an adequate
segregation of duties in all respects, it is important that you be aware oftbis reportable condition.
Management Response
Management has implemented specific internal control policies to address segregation of duties issues. The City Council
approved a resolution in 2005 that addressed some areas of1imitation. The City will continue to review its systems annually to
try to improve internal controL
A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components
does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial
statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be reportable
conditions and, accordingly, wot1ld not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material .
weaknesses as defined above. However, the reportable condition described above is not believed to be a material weakness.
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed
tests of compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. However, the objective of our tests was not
to provide an opinion on compliance with such provisions. We noted one instance of non-compliance with Minnesota statutes.
Broker Certifications
Minnesota statute 118.A04 subdivision 9, requires the City to obtain broker certification from investment brokers annually.
The 2005 broker certifications were not completed.
Significant Accounting Policies
Management has the responsibility for selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. In accordance with the terms of our
engagement letter, we will advise management about the appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. The
significant accounting policies used by the City are described in Note I to the fInancial statements. The City implemented the
requirements of GASB Statement No. 40 - Deposit and Investment Risk Disclosures - an amendment of GASB Statement No.3
during 2005. We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year that were both significant and unusual, and of
which, under professional standards, we are required to inform you, or transactions for which there is a lack of authoritative
guidance or consensus.
Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management's
knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are
particularly sensitive because of their signfficance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events
affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most significant estimate affecting the financial statements were
capital asset basis and depreciation on capital assets.
Management's estimate of depreciation is based on estimated useful lives of the assets. Management's estimated historical cost is
based on current replacement cost deflated to the year acquired. We eval!l8ted the key factors and assumptions used to develop
this estimate in detennining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Audit Adjustments
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define an audit adjustment as a proposed correction of the financial statements
that, in our judgment, may not have been detected except through our auditing procedures. An audit adjustment mayor may not
indicate matteIs that could have a significant effect on the City's financial reporting process (that is, cause future financial
statements to be materially misstated). In total, we proposed 61 journal entries. The entries we would consider audit entries are
listed below. The remaining entries would be considered year end accounting entries. Both series of entries are generally
considered the responsibility of the City to prepare. The City will get more accurate and more timely information if the number of
journal entries is reduced. We bad no uncorrected misstatements.

Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a matter, whether or not resolved to
our satisfaction, concerning a financial accounting, reporting or auditing matter that could be significant to the financial statements
or the auditor's report. Weare pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit
Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to
obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the City's
financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional
standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our
knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accotmtants.

Issues Discussed Prior to Retention of Independent Auditors
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with
management each year prior to retention as the City's auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our
professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing our audit
Other Matters
The following are areas that came to our attention during the audit that we feel should be reviewed:
Financial Position and Results of Operations
General Fund
The General fund is used to account for resources traditionally associated with government, which are not required legally or
by sound principal management to be accounted for in another fund. The General fund balance increased $233,253 from
2004. The fund balance of$I,549,356 is 77 percent of the 2006 budgeted expenditures. We recommend the fund balance be
maintained at a level sufficient to fund operations until the major revenue sources are received in June. We feel a reserve of
approximately 40 to 50 percent of planned expenditures and transfers out is adequate to meet working capital and small
emergency needs. At the current level, the fund balance is above the range of what is generaIly recommended as a miniT1\1111l.
The Minnesota Office of the State Auditor has classified cities' unreserved fund balance levels relative to expenditures as
follows:
Extremely low
Low
Acceptable
Moderately high
High
Very high
Extremely high
Under 20%
21 - 34
35 - 50
51 - 64
65 - 100
101 - 150
Above 150
The State Auditor does group all General and special revenue funds of the City when making this calculation where our
calculation is based only on the General fund. Although there is no legislation regulating fund balance, it is a good policy to
designate intended use of fund balance. This helps address citizen concerns as to the use offund balance and tax levels.

Fund balance should be maintained for the following reasons:
Purposes and Benefits
. Expenditures are incurred somewhat evenly throughout the year. However, currently, property tax and state aid revenues
are not received until the second half of the year. An adequate fund balance will provide the cash flow required to
finance the General fund expenditures until these revenue somces are received.
. The City is vulnerable to legislative actions at the State and Federal level. The State eliminated HACA aid with the 2001
legislative session and imposed reductions of market value credit aid and local government aid for some cities. Levy
limits have also been implemented for municipalities in past legislative sessions. An adequate fund balance will provide
a temporary buffer against those aid adjustments and levy limits.
. Expenditures not anticipated at the time the annual budget was adopted may need immediate Council action. These
would include capital outlay replacement, lawsuits and other items. An adequate fund balance will provide the financing
needed for such expenditures.
. A strong fund balance will assist the City in obtaining, maintaining or improving its bond rating. The result will be better
interest rates in future bond sales.
A summary of the 2005 operations is as follows:

flow of each debt service fund to determine ifbonds can be prepaid or if cash flow is adequate to meet future needs. In
addition, several funds have paid their debt obligation and can be closed to wherever the Council deems appropriate. Tbe
Mound Trail, 21 at Avenue Improvements and Parkview Development should be closed by resolution in 2006.

The hook-up fees generate. revenue for expansion of the system and are reported in the nonoperating revenues. These
fees have contributed to the majority of project costs over the last several ye.ars. Since the cash balance has decreased so
significantly over the past three years it will be important to complete a thorough rate analysis to ensure that current
charges will be sufficient to cover the operating costs of the system.

The Sewer cash is very high compared with operating expenses but hook-up fees and an increase in rates have also been a
major factor in the increase. Itis important that the City review rates to ensure that the revenue is sufficient to cover

it requires governments to report the effects of capital asset impairments in their financial statements when they occur
rather than as a part of the ongoing depreciation expense for the capital asset or upon disposal of the capital asset. Users
of financial statements will better understand when impainnents have occurred and what their financial impact is on the
City. This statement also enhances comparability of financial statements between governments by requiring all
governments to account for insurance recoveries in the same manner."
GASB Statement No. 43 - Financial Reportingfor Post employment Benefit Plans Other than Pension Plans
This statement is effective one year prior to the effective date of Statement No. 45 for the employer or largest
participating employer in the benefit plan for multiple-employer plans. According to Statement No. 43, "The objective of
this statement is to establish uniform standards of financial reporting by State and local governmental entities for other
post employment benefit plans (OPEB plans). The term other post employment benefits (OPEB) refers to post
employment benefits other than pension benefits and includes (a) post employment healthcare benefits and (b) other types
of post employment benefits (for example, life insurance) if provided separately from a pension plan. The term plans, in
this context, refers to trust or other :funds through which assets are accumulated to finance OPEB, and benefits are paid as
they come due. This statement provides standards for measurement, recognition, and display of the assets, liabilities,
and, where applicable, net assets and changes in net assets of such funds and for related disclosures. The requirements of
this statement apply whether an OPEB plan is reported as a trust or agency fund or a fiduciary component unit of a
participating employer or plan sponsor, or the plan is separately reported by a public employee retirement system (PERS)
or other entity that administers the plan."
GASB Statement No. 44 - Economic Condition Reporting: The Statistical Section an amendment o/NCGA Statement 1
1bis statement only applies to statistical sections offinancial statements. It is effective for periods beginning after
June 15,2005. The City currently does not prepare a statistical section.
GASB Statement No. 45 - Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post employment Benefits Other Than
Pensions
1bis statement is effective in three phases based on a government's total annual revenues in the first fiscal year ending
after June 15, 1999:
. Governments that were phase I governments for the purpose of implementation of Statement No. 34 - those with
a:nnual revenues of $1 00 million or more - are required to implement this statement in financial statements for
periods beginning after December 1 S, 2006.
. Governments that were phase 2 governments for the purpose of implementation of Statement No. 34 - those with
total a:nnual revenues of $10 million or more but less than $100 million - are required to implement this
statement in financial statements for periods beginning after December 1 S, 2007.

Governments that were phase 3 governments for the purpose of implementation of Statement No. 34 - those with
total annual revenues of less than $10 million - are required to implement this statement in financial statements
for periods beginning after December 15,2008.
Statement No. 45 gives the following summary, "In addition to pensions, many state and local governmental employers
provide other post employment benefits (OPEB) as part of the total compensation offered to attract and retain the
services of qualified employees. OPEB includes post employment healtbcare, as well as other fonns of post employment
benefits (for example, life insurance) when provided separately from a pension plan. This statement establishes
standards for the measurement, recognition, and display of OPEB expense/expenditures and related liabilities ( assets),
note disclosures, and, if applicable, required supplementary information (RSI) in the financial reports of state and local
governmental employers."
GASB Statement No. 46 - Net Assets Restricted by Legiskltion an amendment ofGASB Statement No. 34
This statement is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2005. Statement No. 46 gives the following surmnary
"GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements - and Management's Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local
Governments, requires that limitations on the use of net assets imposed by enabling legislation be reported as restricted
net assets. In the process of applying this provision, some governments have had difficulty interpreting the requirement
that those restrictions be "legally enforceable." The confusion over this phrase has resulted in a diversity of practice that
has diminished comparability.
This statement clarifies that a legally enforceable enabling legislation restriction is one that a party external to a
government - such as citizens, public interest groups, or the judiciary - can compel a government to honor. The statement
states that the legal enforceability of an enabling legislation restriction should be reevaluated if any of the resources
raised by the enabling legislation are used for a purpose not specified by the enabling legislation or if a government has
other cause for reconsideration. Although the determination that a particular restriction is not legally enforceable may
cause a government to review the enforceability of other restrictions, it should not necessarily lead a government to the
same conclusion for all enabling legislation restrictions.
This statement also specifies the accounting and financial reporting requirements ifnew enabling legislation replaces
existing enabling legislation or if legal enforceability is reevaluated. Finally, this Statement requires governments to
disclose the portion of total net assets that is restricted by enabling legislation."
GASB Statement No. 47 - Accountingfor Termination Benefits
In general, Statement No. 47 is effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15,2005. However, for
termination benefits that affect defined benefit post employment benefits other than pensions, governments should
implement Statement No. 47 simultaneously with Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers
for Post employment Benefits Other Than Pensions. The statement provides accounting and reporting guidance for state
and local governments that offer benefits such as early retirement incentives or severance to employees that are
involuntarily terminated. The statement requires that similar forms of termination benefits be accounted for in the same
manner and is intended to enhance both the consistency of reporting for termination benefits and the comparability of
financial statements.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the City ofCenterville, Minnesota, (the City), we offer readers of the City's financial statements this narrative
overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005.
Financial Highlights
. The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $17,470,621 (net assets). Of
this amount, $5,089,023 (unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and
creditors.
. The City's total net assets decreased $1,028,229.
. As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fimd balances of
$5,663,244 a decrease of$2,308 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 27.0 percent of this total amount,
$1,529,573, is available for spending at the City's discretion, but has been designated for specific purposes.
. At the end of the current fiscal year, unreserved fundbalance for the General fund was $1,529,573, or 80 percent of total
General fund expenditures. While these funds are not legally reserved, they are designated for future purposes.
. The City's total debt decreased $57,250, 0.9 percent during the current fiscal year. Major activity in debt occurred from
the issuance of $827,750 in bonds. The overall decrease resulted from the prepayment of 1998 GO Improvement bonds
and GO SewerlWater revenue bonds totaling $765,000 and regular bond payments totaling S120,000.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements. The City's basic
financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3)
notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplemental information in addition to the basic financial
statements themselves.

The financial statements also include notes that explain some of the information in the financial statements and provide more
detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules that
further explains and supports the information in the. financial statements. Figure 1 shows how the required parts of this annual
report are arranged and relate to one another. In addition to these required elements, we have included a section with combining
and individual fund financial statements and scl1edu1es that provide details about nonmajor governmental funds, which are added
together and presented in single columns in the basic financial statements.

Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City's finances, in a
manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City's assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two
reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial
position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All
changes in net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of
related cash flows. 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
intergovernmemaJ. revenue (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion
of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general
government, public safety, public works, economic development, culture and recreation, miscellaneous and interest on long-term
debt The business-type activities of the City include water and sewer.

Management Discussion and Analysis - Continued

The government-wide :financial statements can be found on pages 4 - 6 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements
Afimd is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific
activities or objectives. The City, like other State and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensme and demonstrate
compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into two categories:
governmental funds and proprietary funds.
GovemmentoJ lulU/s. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental
activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental
fund :financial statements focus on near-term infWws and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable
resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term
financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to
compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the
government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact by the gOVerIlllleIlt's
near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues,
expenditures and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and
governmental activities.
The City maintains 30 individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance
sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for the General and Debt
Service funds, 11 of which are Debt Service funds. Data from the other 18 governmental funds are combined into a single,
aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of
combining statements or schedules elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the
General fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 7 - 11 of this report.
. Proprietary fund. The City maintains one type of proprietary fund Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions
presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for
its water and sewer.
The proprietary fund provides the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail.
The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for each of the enterprise funds.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 12 - 19 of this report.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and
fund :financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 20 - 36 of this report.
Other Information
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds are presented following the notes
to financial statements. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 37 - 54 of this report.

Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City,
assets exceeded liabilities by $17,470,621 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.
By far, the largest portion of the City's net assets (46.3 percent) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings,
machinery and equipment), less any related debt used to acquire those assets thatare still outstanding. The City uses these capital
assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City's
investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must
be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

The decrease in current and other assets in governmental activities is attributed to the prepayment of the GO Improvement Bonds,
Series 1998 to reduce interest cost The decrease in current and other assets as well as the increase in capital assets in business-
type activities is attributed to the completion of the conStruction to the water tower.
The increase in non-current liabilities outstanding in the governmental activities is attributed to the debt for the Joint Police
Station. The decrease in non-current liabilities outstanding in business-type activities is attn'buted to prepayment of the GO
Sewer and Water Revenue Bonds, Series 1998 to reduce interest cost
An additional portion of the City's net assets (24.2 percent) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how
they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets ($5,089,023) may be used to meet the City's ongoing
obligations to citizens and creditors.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City is able to report positive balances in all three categories of net assets, both for the
City as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities.

Financial Analysis of the Government's Funds
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Govemmenttdftmds. The focus of the City's governmentalfimds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows and
balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular,
unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the
fiscal year.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governinental funds reported combined ending fund baIances of$5,663,244, an
decrease of$2,308 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 41 percent of this total amount $2,316,008 constitutes
unreservedfimd balance, which is available for spending at the City's discretion. The remainder of fund balance is reserved to
indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been committed to pay debt service and prepaid expenses
in the amount of $3,347,236.
The General fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current year, the fund balance of the General fundwas
$1,549,356. As a measure of the General fund's liquidity, it maybe useful to compare both unreserved fund balance and total
fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unreserved fund balance represents 80 percent of fund expenditures, while total fund
balance represents 81 percent of that same amount.
. The fund balance of the City's General fund increased by $233,253 during the current fiscal year.
. A portion of the General Fund unreserved fund balance is attributed to delays in general capital projects. This portion
and any subsequent portions will be transferred to a general capital projects fund.
The Debt Service fund has a total fund balance of $3,327,453, all of which is reserved for the payment of debt service. The net
increase in fund balance during the current year in the Debt Service fund was $457,036. This net increase resulted from the
prepayment of the GO Improvement Bonds, Series 1998 and the issuance of debt for the Joint Police Station 2005A.
Proprietary funds. The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial
statements, but in more detail.
Umestricted net assets of the enterprise funds at the end of the year amounted to $2,741,715. The total growth in net assets for
the funds was $244,837. Other factors concerning the finances of this fund have already been addressed in the discussion of the
City's business-type activities.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The City's General fund budget was balanced and was not amended during the year. At year end, revenues exceeded
expectations and expenditures were under expectations by a combined $188,670.

AND CHANGES IN. FUND BALANCES
TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
OOVERNMENTAL.FUNDS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,2005
Total net change in fund balances - govemmental funds
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement
of activities are different because:
Capital outlays are reported in governmental :funds as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over the estimated useful lives as depreciation expense.
Capital outlay
Depreciation expense
Loss on disposal of assets
The capital projects funds accounted for the construction of Water and Sewer fund assets. These
costs of these assets are recorded as expense in the fund statements. When these assets
are complete, they assets are transferred from the governmental to the business type activities.
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while
the repayment of principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental
funds. Neither transaction, however, bas any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report
the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts and similar items when debt is first issued,
whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities.
Principal repayments
Debt issued or incurred
Interest on long-term debt in the statement of activities differs from the amount reported in the
governmental fund because interest is recognized as an expenditure in the funds when it is due,
and thus requires the use of current financial resources. In the statement of activities, however
interest expense is recognized as the interest accrues, regardless of when it is due.
Governmental fund report debt issuance premiums and discounts as an other futancing
source or use at the time of issuance. Premiums and discounts are reported as an
unamortized asset or liability in the district-wide financial statements.
Certain revenues are recognized as soon as it is eam.ed. Under the modified accrual
basis of accounting certain revenues cannot be recognized until they are available
to liquidate liabilities of the current period.
Special assessments
Property taxes
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current
financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.

CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31,2005
Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POUCIES
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Centerville, Minnesota (the City), operates under the "Optional Plan A" form of government as defined
in the State of Minnesota statutes. Under this plan, the government of the City is directed by a Council composed of
an elected Mayor and four elected Council Members. The Council exercises legislative authority and determines all
matters of policy. The Council appoints personnel responsible for the proper administration of all affairs relating to
the City. The City has considered all potential units for which it is financially accountable, and other organizations
for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the
City's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board
(GASB) has set forth criteria to be considered in determining financial accountability. These criteria include
appointing a voting majority of an organization's governing body, and (1) the ability of the primary govemmentto
impose its will on that organization or (2) the potential for the organization to provide specific benefits to, or impose
specific financial burdens on the primary government. The City does not have any component units.
B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement of changes in net
assets) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the City and its component units. For the most part,
the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally
are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which
rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are
offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or
segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit
from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contnbutions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other
items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual
governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial
statements.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurementfoeus and the
accrual basis of accounting. as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when eamed
and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes
are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue
as soon as all eligIbility requirements imposed by the provider have been met
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement foeus and
the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and
available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collecnble within the current period or soon
enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be
available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are
recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as
expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments~ are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be
suscepnole to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of
special assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as
revenue of the current period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when
cash is received by the City.

CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO '!HE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31,2005
Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is
recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On a modified accroal basis, revenue is recorded in
the year in which the resources are measurable and become available.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City receives value without directly giving equal value inretum, include
property taxes, grants, entitlement and donations. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in
the year for which the tax is levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements and donations is recognized in the year in
which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which
specify the year when the resources are required to be used or the year when use is :first permitted, matching
requirements, in which the City must provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure
requirements, in which the resources are provided to the City on a reimbursement basis. On a modified accrual
basis, revenue from non-exchange transactions must also be available before it can be recognized.
Deferred revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Grants
and entitlements received before eligtbility requirements are met are also recorded as deferred revenue. On the
modified accrual basis, receivables that will not be collected within the available period have also been reported as
deferred revenue in the fund financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the City,
except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Debt Service fund accounts for the resources accumulated and payments made for principal and interest
on long-term general obligation debt of governmental funds.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Water fund accounts for the activities of the water distribution system the City maintains.
The Sewer fund accounts for the activities of the City's sewage collection operations.
The Recyclingfund accounts for the activities of the City's recycling collection operations.
Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are
followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do
not conflict with or contradict guidance of GASB. Governments also have the option of following subsequent
private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation. The
City has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the City's water and sewer function and various other functions
of the City. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the
various functions concerned.

CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER. 31, 2005
Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services or
privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contrIbution, and 3) capital grants and contrIbutions, including special
assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program. revenues.
Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and
expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a
proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City enterprise funds are
charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and
services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this
definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
When both res1ricted and unres1ricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted
resources first, then umestricted resources as they are needed.
D. Assets, Liabilities and Net Assets or Equity
Deposits and Investments
The City's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term
investments with. original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition.
Cash balances from all funds are pooled and invested. to the extent available, in certificates of deposit and other
authorized investments. Earnings from such investments are allocated on the basis of applicable participation by
each of the funds.
The City may also invest idle funds as authorized by Minnesota statutes, as follows:
1. Direct obligations or obligations guaranteed by the United States or its agencies.
2. Shares of investment companies registered under the Federal Investment Company Act of 1940 and whose
only investments are in securities in (a) above.

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT,ACCOUNTING POIJCIES - CONTINUED
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable include amounts billed for services provided before year end. Unbilled utility enterprise fund
receivables are also included for services provided in 2005. The City annually certifies delinquent water and sewer
accounts to the County for collection in the following year. Therefore, there bas been no allowance for doubtful'
accounts established.
Interfund Receivables and Payables
Activity between funds that are representative oflendinglborrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the
fiscal year are referred to as either "due to/from other funds" (ie., the current portion ofintertimd loans) or
"advances to/from other funds" (i.e., the non-current portion ofinterfund loans). All other outstanding balances
between funds are reported as "due toIfrom other funds." Any residual balances outstanding between the
governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as
"internal balances."
Property Taxes
The Council annually adopts a tax levy in December and certifies it to the County for collection in the following
year. The County is responsible for collecting all property taxes for the City. These taxes attach an enforceable lien
on taxable property within the City on January 1 and are payable by the property owners in two installments. The
taxes are collected by the County Auditor and tax settlements are made to the City during January, July and
December each year.
Taxes payable on homestead property, as defined by Minnesota statutes, were partially reduced by a market value
credit aid. The credit is paid to the City by the State of Minnesota (the State) in lieu of taxes levied against the
homestead property. The State remits this credit in two equal installments in October and December each year.
Delinquent taxes receivable include the past six years' uncollected taxes. Delinquent taxes have been offset by a
deferred revenue liability for delinquent taxes not received within 60 days after year end in the fund financial
statements.
Special Assessments
Special assessments represent the financing for public improvements paid for by benefiting property owners. These
assessments are recorded as receivables upon certification to the County. Special assessments are recognized as
revenue when they are received in cash or within 60 days after year end. All governmental fund special
assessments receivable are offset by a deferred revenue liability in the fund financial statements.
Inventories and Prepaid Items
All inventories are valued at cost using the first-inlfirst-out (FIFO) method. Inventories of governmental funds are
recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items
in both government-wide and fund financial statements.

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POUCIES - CONTINUED
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipinent and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks,
and similar items) are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the
government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost
of more than $5,000 (amount not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of three years. Such assets are
recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are
recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.
In the case of initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by governmental activities) the
City chose to include items dating back to June 30, 1980. The City was able to estimate the historical cost for the
initial reporting of these assets through backtracking (i.e., estimating the current replacement cost of the
infrastructure to be capita1ized and using an appropriate price-level index to deflate the cost to the acquisition year
or estimated acquisition year). As the City constructs or acquires capital assets each period, including infrastructure
assets, they are capitalized and reported at historical cost. The reported value excludes normal maintenance and
repairs which are essentially amounts spent in relation to capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency
of the item or extend its useful life beyond the original estimate. In the case of donations the City values these
capital assets at the estimated fair value of the item at the date of its donation. Interest incurred during the
construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalized value of the
assets constructed.
Property, plant and equipment of the City are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives:

Other improvements
Buildings and improvements

Compensated Absences
It is the City's policy to pezmit employees to accumulate earned but unused paid time off benefits to a maximwn of
176 hours. All paid time off pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary funds. A
liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of
employee resignations and retirements. Union employees are allowed severance equal to their unused compensatory
time. In governmental fund types the cost of these benefits is recognized when payments are made to the
employees.
Long-term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term
debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-
type activities or proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Beginning January I, 2003, for governmental funds,
bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using
the straight-line method. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term of the
related debt.

In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for amounts that are not
available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties for use for a specific purpose. Designations of
fund balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change.

that a budget may be prepared. Before September 15, the proposed budget is presented to the Council for review.
The Council holds public hearings and a final budget is prepared and adopted in early December.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. The City's department beads, with the
approval of the City Administrator, may make transfers of appropriations within a department Transfers of
appropriations between departments require the approval of the Council. The legal level of budgetary control is the
department level. Budgeted amounts are as originally adopted, or as amended by the Council.

Note 4: DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS - STATEWIDE
A. PIan Description
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the City are covered by defined benefit plans administered by
the Public. Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the Public Employees
Retirement Fund (PERF), which is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer retirement plan. The pIan is established
and administered in accordance with Minnesota statutes, chapters 353 and 356.
PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic PIan. Coordinated PIan members are covered
by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members must participate in the Coordinated PIan.
PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to survivors upon
death of eligtble members. Benefits are established by Minnesota statute, and vest after three years of credited
service. The defined retirement benefits are based on a member's highest average salary for any five successive
years of allowable service, age and years of credit at termination of service.
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERF's Coordinated and Basic Plan members. The retiring
member receives the higher of a step-rate benefit accrual fonnula (Method 1) or a level accrual fonnula (Method
2). Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2 percent of average salary for each
of the first 10 years of service and 2.7 percent for each remaining year. The annuity accrual rate for a
Coordinated Plan member is 1.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years and 1.7 percent for each
remaining year. Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7 percent of average salary for Basic Plan
membets and 1.7 percent for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service.
For all PERF members whose annuity is calculated using Method 1, a full annuity is available when age plus
years of service equal 90. A reduced retirement annuity is also available to eligIble members seeking early
retirement.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement. A normal annuity is a lifetime
annuity that ceases upon the death of the retiree - ~ no survivor annuity is payable. There are also various types
of joint and survivor annuity options available which will reduce the monthly normal annuity amount, because
the annuity is payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their contnbutions in the fund upon termination
of public service in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement age. Refunds of contributions are
available at any time to members who leave public service, but before retirement benefits begin.
The benefit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current provisions and apply to active
plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are
bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
PERA issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary
information for PERF. That report may be obtained on the web at www.mnpera.org, by writing to PERA. 60
Empire Drive, Suite 200, St Paul, Minnesota 55103-1855 or by calling 651-296-7460 or 1-800-652-9026.
B. Funding Policy
Minnesota statutes, chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contnbutions. These statutes are
established and amended by the State legislature. The City makes annual contnbutions to the pension plans
equal to the aJIlOunt required by Minnesota statute. PERF Basis PIan members and Coordinated Plan members
are required to contnbute 9.10 percent and 5.10 percent, respectively, of their annual covered salary. The City is
required to contribute the following percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.78 percent for Basic Plan PERF
members and 5.53 percent for Coordinated Plan PERF members. The City's contnbutions to the PERF for the
year ended December 31, 2005. 2004 and 2003 were $26,421, 22,756, and $23.440, respectively. The City's
contributions were equal to the contractually required contnbutions for each year as set by Minnesota statutes.

Note 6: OTHER INFORMATION
A. Risk Management
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft ot: damage to and destruction of assets; errors
and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters for which the City carries insurance. The City obtains
insUrance through participation in the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT), which is a risk
sharing pool with approximately 800 other governmental units. The City pays an annual premium to LMcIT for
its workers compensation and property and casualty insurance. The LMCIT is self sustaining through member
premiums and will reinsure for claimS above a prescribed dollar amount for each insurance event. Settled claimS
have not exceeded the City's coverage in any of the past three fiscal years.
Liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably
estimated. Liabilities, if any, include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNRs).
The City's management is not aware of any incurred but not reported claimS.
B. Legal Debt Margin
In accordance with Minnesota statutes, the City may not incur or be subject to net debt in excess of 2 percent of
the market value of taxable property within the City. Net debt is payable solely from ad valorem taxes and,
therefore, excludes debt financed partially or entirely by special assessments, enterprise fund revenues or tax
increments. The City does not have any debt subject to the 2 percent limit
Note 7: COMMITMENTS
In 1997, the City entered into a Joint Powers agreement with the Anoka County Housing and Redevelopment
Authority (ACHRA) to provide senior housing within the City. The ACHRA has issued $1,290,000 of Housing
Development Revenue Bonds to provide for construction costs of the project The City has reserved $71,631 in the
Sewer enterprise fund in accordance with the agreement with ACHRA. This amount is to be used in the event revenue
is not sufficient to cover operating expenses and debt service. The City would also be liable for any deficit above the
amount reserved. This commitment exists until December 31, 2012. No expenses were incurred relating to the
commitment in 2005.

REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Honorable Mayor and Council
City of Centerville, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund and the
aggregate remaining fund information of the City ofCentervi11e; Minnesota (the City) as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2005, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated
May 4, 2006.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the
provisions of the Minnesota Legal Complilmce Audit Guide for Local Government, pronwlgated by the Minnesota Office of the
State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota statute, section 6.65. Accordingly, the audit included such tests of the accounting records
and such other auditing procedures, as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
The Minnesota Legal Complilmce Audit Guide for Local Government covers six main categories of compliance to be tested:
contracting and bidding, deposits and investments, conflicts of interest, public indebtedness, claims and disbursements and
miscellaneous provisions. Our study included all of the listed categories.
The results of our tests indicate that for the items tested, the City complied with the material terms and conditions of applicable
legal provisions except finding 2005-2 as noted in the Schedule of Findings.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Council, management, others within the City and the Minnesota
Office of the State Auditor and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Honorable Mayor and Council
City of Centerville, Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major
fund, and the remaining fund information of the City of Centerville, Minnesota (the City), as of and for the year ended December
31, 2005 which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated May 4, 2006.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our
auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide an opinion on the
internal control over financial reporting. However, we noted certain matters involving the internal control over financial reporting
and its operation that we consider to be reportable conditions, reported as finding 2005-1 in the schedule of findings. Reportable
conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal
control over financial reporting that, in our judgment, could adversely affect the City's ability to record, process, summarize and
report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the financial statements.
A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not
reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements
being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions. Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in
the internal control that might bereportab1e conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions
that are also considered to be material weaknesses. However, we believe the reportable condition descnbed above is not a
material weakness.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Council, management, others within the City and the Minnesota
Office of the State Auditor and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

SCHEDULE OF. FINDINGS
DECEMBER 31,2005
Descrlption
Segregation of Duties
Our study and evaluation disclosed that because of the limited size of your office staff, the City bas limited
segregation of duties. A good internal control structure contemplates and adequate segregation of duties so that
no one individual handles transactions from inception to completion. While we recognize that the City is not
large enough to permit an adequate segregation of duties in all respects, it is important that you be aware of this
reportable condition.
Mll1Iagement Response
Management bas implemented specific internal control policies to address segregation of duties issues. The City
Council approved a resolution in 2005 that addressed some llJ'eas of1imi1ation. The City will continue to review
its systems annually to try to improve internal control.
Broker Certifications
Minnesota statute I 18.A04 subdivision 9, requires the City to obtain broker certification from investment
brokers annually. The 2005 broker certifications were not completed.
Management Response
This was an oversight, and will be monitored more closely in the future.

The aerial photo depicts the shoot site. The Primary site proposed is in the Laurie Lamotte Park,
and on the North ball field. This offers a 300' safety radius. There are no obstructions to the
audience from the shoot area, so a full range of products can be used to lengthen the display and
keep it interesting and fast paced.

NORTH METRO TV MEMO
TO: OPERATIONSC01~rrTTEE RECEIVED
FROM: HEIDI ARNSON
SUBJECT: BUDGET INFO JUN 2 3 2006
DATE: 6/22/2006 CENTERVILLE, MN
In this packet you will find the 2007 Commission and North Metro TV budgets as approved by
the Commission at their June 21, 2006 meeting.
According to the Commission by-laws I need to get the budgets to you by August 1st, and your
cities need to approve them by October 15th. I guess approve isn't the right word. Again, according
to the rules of engagement, the cities can't really not approve the budgets, dley can only elect to leave
dle Commission. Hey. I didn't make dle rules.
Anyhoo, here is eve:ryd1ing you need, including a brief "talking points" that I put togedler to
help you or your commission member explain the major points of the budget during presentation to
your cities. The talking points are meant for you or your commission person, but I guess if you want
to hand dlem out to everyone on the council d1at would be just fine.
Have a pleasant July 4th holiday! I will be out of the office Friday June 30th through Tuesday July
4th. I will be back on Wednesday July 5th and happy to answer any questions or address any issues
you may have.
Thanks!

2007 Commission and North Metro TV Budgets
Talking Points
Overall Oreanizational Goals
· To develop a plan for continuing to deliver important and valuable services to the
North Metro, utilizing the 2006 Strategic Planning and Alternative Funding
Methods Report and a 2007 subscriber survey. This plan will be essential,
considering the legislative climate, and the likelihood that funding for community
programming will be decreased as a direct result of this legislation.
· To position the organization's capital equipment inventory so as to eliminate the
need for major purchases over the next three to five years.
· To hire 5 part-time assistants to create a pool of employees who can be relied
upon to crew van shoots, assist with ad shoots, and help in the production of other
community programs. These individuals could also serve as a pool of
videographers available to cities for hire to tape meetings. It is becoming more
and more difficult to produce more, higher quality programs utilizing volunteers.
High technical quality programming will be more and more essential as we try to
sell advertising. Staff time spent on recruiting and training volunteers has reached
a point where we will not be able to expand the number of events we cover.
There are not enough people willing to volunteer their time, as often as we need
them, to produce the numbers of programs we produce. While we will continue
to utilize volunteers and interns, developing paid part-time positions will serve as
incentive for folks to continue to volunteer or intern with us to develop their
skills, as there is the possibility that they could actually get a job. This way, all
the training that we put into our volunteers and interns won't be lost once the
internship is over, or the volunteer needs to find a job. This pool of employees
could also be tapped by cities when they are looking for people to tape their
meetings. Finally, it is possible that with reduced funding we may need to rely on
part-time people to produce most of our programs. Developing this pool now will
make any necessary transition more seamless. The total cost of this part-time
pool would be $27,450.75. They would be limited to earning $425 per month,
and would therefore be ineligible for health benefits or PERA. Payroll taxes
would apply and are included in the above total.
· To expand revenue sources such as advertising, copying fees, and additional
services determined feasible by the 2006 Strategic Planning Report.
· To continue developing public recognition of available services.
Commission Hudeet
· The recommended budget total for the Commission is $558,884. This is a 6.8%
increase over last year's budget. The increase is due to a recommended 3% salary
~
" .
increase for staff, a 10% increast? in insurance costs, the inclusion of a subscriber
survey budgeted at $12,000, the purchase of a photocopier budgeted at $10,000,
and an average 17% increase in utility costs.
· Franchise fees are expected to be at least $749,000. There will be additional
income from interest, currently estimated to be at least $20,000. After subtracting
the recommended budget total, it is expected that at least $200,000 would be
returned to cities. This represents a 15% increase over the funds returned to cities
last year.
North Metro TV Budf!et
· The recommended North Metro TV operating budget is $647,482. This is an 11 %
increase over last year's budget. The increase is due to a recommended 3% salary
increase for staff, the addition of 5 part-time positions totaling $27,451, a 50%
increase in the advertising/marketing budget, 10% increase in insurance costs, and
an average 17% increase in utility costs.
· It is estimated that PEG fee income will total at least $638,820. Additional
revenue is estimated to total $104,935.
· The recommended equipment purchases will complete the upgrade of all of our
major equipment systems. This will result in the ability to go three to five years
without making any major equipment purchases. It is recommended that a cargo
van be purchased to allow for the safer transport of scaffolding for van shoots,
and the easier transport of the staff portable studio. A bare-bones, used van will
meet our needs.
Closinf! Points
· We have created a thriving and dynamic service for our cities, schools, producers,
and viewers. Through program playback and channel management, computer and
network consulting, video equipment consulting, and video production services,
our cities are seeing real benefits from their investment of franchise fees and PEG
fees. Our cable subscribers are benefiting from this investment with educational
opportunities, and varied, informative and interesting programming regarding
their communities.
· We will do the best we can, with what we have, to continue to provide these
services. Our primary goal, going forward, will be to work with the Operations
Committee and Cable Commission to devise a strategy for dealing with a
changing environment.
· It was recommended that the PEG fee be increased by the allowable CPI. The
average CPI for 2005 was 3.4% resulting in a nine-cent increase from 2.64 to
2.73, effective January 1, 2007.
· The Operations Committee recommended that the Commission approve
transferring the unrestricted Commission funds, as of December 31, 2005, of
$33,300 to the production truck replacement fund, as had been previously
discussed and approved. These funds represent the money left over in the
2
5/
'" .
Commission account at the end of the year, due to frugal spending in the various
budget line items and higher than expected interest income. The current truck is
five years old. It will likely need to be replaced in five to ten years, at a cost of
approximately $170,000 - $180,000.

Mr. Dallas Larson
City of Centerville
1880 Main Street
Centerville, MN 55038
RE: APPROVAL OF 2007 COMMISSION AND NORTH METRO TV BUDGETS
Dear Mr. Larson:
Enclosed, please find for the council's review and approval the 2007 Budgets for both the North
Metro Telecommunications Commission ("Commission") and North Metro TV.
I. 2007 COMMISSION BUDGET
The Commission's operating budget for 2007 is proposed at $558,884. This is an increase of
6.8% over the 2006 budget. The 2007 budget is higher due to a recommended 3% salary increase
for staff, a 10% increase in insurance costs, the inclusion of a subscriber survey budgeted at
$12,000, the purchase of a photocopier budgeted at $10,000 and an average 17% increase in
utility costs.
Recommendation:
That the Member Cities approve the 2007 Commission Budget as
recommended by the Telecommunications Commission and the
Operations Committee.
II. 2007 NORTH METRO TV BUDGET
The amended Joint Powers Agreement established an "Operations Committee" which is
composed of Member City administrators. Their primary responsibility is to provide input to the
operation and budget of the community television operation. Enclosed is the 2007 North Metro
TV budget proposed by the Operations Committee and recommended by the North Metro
Telecommunications Commission for approval by its Member Cities.
The North Metro TV proposed budget is $851,082. This budget is composed of operating
expenditures totaling $647,482 and capital expenditures of $203,600. In addition to the budget,
the Operations Committee has also proposed an increase in the subscriber's monthly PEG fee

from $2.64/month to $2.73/month. The Memorandum of Understanding between the Member
Cities and Comcast allows for an annual cost of living increase in the PEG fee. The nine-cent
increase represents a 3.4% CPI average. The increased funding is necessary for North Metro TV
to meet staffing and equipment goals. The Telecommunications Commission is recommending
this increase in the PEG fee.
Recommendation:
That Member Cities approve the 2007 North Metro TV budget and an
increase in the PEG fee to $2.73/month as recommended by the
Telecommunications Commission and Operations Committee.
The Joint Powers Agreement states, "submitted budgets shall be deemed approved
by a Member City unless, prior to October 15 preceding the effective date of the
proposed budget, the Member City gives notice in writing to the Commission that it is
withdrawing from the Commission."
I want to thank the Commission directors, staff, and the Operations Committee for their efforts in
preparing these budgets. If you have any questions about either budget please consult with your
Commission director or City Administrator.
I look forward to working with all parties, throughout the remainder of 2006, toward reaching the
full potential of North Metro TV and to increase both the quality and quantity of community
programming in 2007.
Sincerely,
::V~~

GOALS 2007
1
ff
_I II II
the starting point
In November of 2002, the North Metro Telecommunications Commission
member cities and Comcast signed a new franchise agreement that included the
continued funding of community television through November 2017.
With the promise of this funding, we developed and implemented an ambitious
plan to meet the needs of our seven cities, three school districts, and the general
public. We purchased a new production truck and filled it with high-end digital
equipment, designed and built a state-of-the-art television production facility with
a centralized master control for playback of city programming, and expanded our
staffing levels to meet our service goals.
Enter the phone companies and Congress. National franchising legislation is
currently making its way through the House and Senate. If approved in its
current form, it would reduce our community programming funding (PEG fees) by
76%.
There are many possible scenarios for our future. Worst case, the legislation
passes in its current form and we have to make fundamental changes. Best
case, a "do no harm" amendment regarding PEG funding is included in the
legislation, resulting in a smaller reduction in our current funding. Whether it
happens this year or next, or the year after, is unclear. What is clear, is that we
need to be prepared for change.
Our goals for 2007 reflect this reality. While our hope is to be able to continue
the course of growth and development we have established, it is very likely that
we will have to develop a different course. As such, we have budgeted and
planned for a year's work, as if there will be no fluctuation in our funding. At the
same time, we will be developing alternative funding sources that could either
supplement or replace a portion of the PEG fee, and outlining possible scenarios
for survival of the organization in the event of a greatly reduced income.
We will continue to serve our communities at the same level we have in the past,
while following the legislative process closely. If we are faced with the worst
case scenario, we will be prepared to alter the 2007 budgets and plans
accordingly.
_I II II
alternative funding plans
Regardless of what happens in Congress, developing alternative sources of
revenue is an exercise that will serve us well. To that end, the Commission has
2
a
requested proposals for professional consulting services for the purpose of
developing a strategic plan for dealing with a changing regulatory environment,
and developing alternative funding sources. The project will be completed in
2006, with the results serving as the foundation for our funding plans going .
forward.
While we consider the creation of this plan an important step, we are already
working to develop some of the more obvious revenue streams. The primary
goal of ours for 2007 will be the expansion of these revenue streams (if deemed
appropriate) and the implementation of any additional recommendations
established in the strategic planning report.
Current projects under development:
. Increasing awareness of program copies for sale
. Commercial dubbing service (transferring family/personal videos to DVD)
. Sale of commercial spot production and spot playback over the cable
system (sponsorship spots)
Additional revenue sources under consideration:
. Create a rate card for rental of equipment and/or studio space for personal
or commercial uses
. Charge a fee for video production classes
. Examine membership fees
. Rent out production services (staff could tape private events such as
bands, weddings, fundraisers)
. Sell DVDs/photos of kids with Santa in studio
_I II I~
outreach/ advocacy
Educating people about our services will continue to be an important and
ongoing goal of ours. This includes not only our communities and potential users
and beneficiaries of community television, but our state and federal
representatives, as well. People need to know how community television
benefits them and Congress needs to know that something valuable will be lost if
our funding is significantly decreased.
Our outreach plans include:
. Engaging businesses through our City Scope segment "Spotlight on Local
Business"
. Expansion and development of our commercial sponsorship program
3
51
. Regular informational presentations at service club and organizational
meetings
. Regular informational presentations at schools
. Targeted open houses for non-profits, religious organizations, teachers,
senior citizens, etc.
. Maintaining website with more information/Flash technology
. Submitting articles and press releases to information outlets on a regular
basis
. Expanding workshop topics
. Publishing workshop schedules in park and rec publications
. Producing video promos for staff productions
. Producing info-mercials detailing services available
. Engaging our users in email/phone campaigns to protest detrimental
legislation
. Contacting our representatives to encourage them to support current
funding levels for community programming
. Arranging visits with our representatives or their staff
. Conduct a subscriber survey to ascertain viewer opinions
In addition to these goals, we will continue producing informational flyers, and PR
kits. The annual Volunteer Award Ceremony will also remain an important part of
our outreach plan.
_I II .1
part - time production assistants
We would like to hire up to five part-time production assistants who could be
relied upon to work on van shoots, promotional spots, and other staff produced
programming. These folks would only earn up to $425 a month (no more than 42
hours a month at $10 per hour) and would therefore not be eligible for PERA or
health benefits. Payroll taxes would apply.
While staff consistently produces, on average, 300+ programs annually with the
help of volunteers and interns, developing a pool of paid, part-time producers
would be a wise addition to the mix. Volunteers and interns come and go. They
typically are interested in assisting until they reach some goal, whether it be
completing their internship, high school graduation, getting a paying job, or
meeting their community service requirement. Staff is also at the mercy of a
volunteer's generosity. There isn't too much you can do to make them help you if
they have something better to do.
We expend a great deal of effort to train these folks. Often, by the time they
have attained quality video production skills, they have met their goals and move
on. This means staff has to start the process over again.
4
51
Some of the benefits of having a pool of part-time producers include a more
reliable and consistently trained crew for van shoots, the ability to produce more
programs, a reservoir of individuals who may be interested in also working for
cities to tape meetings, and an overall increase in the quality of our final product.
The technical quality of our programs is of particular interest to us, as we are
working to develop a commercial sponsorship program. We want to be sure our
programs look as professional as possible.
While it may seem questionable to suggest increasing our staffing levels at a
time when future funding is in jeopardy, it actually makes a lot of sense. Based
on first quarter franchise .and PEG fee payments, our traditional income
continues to grow. If nothing happens in the legislature, or if a "do no harm" PEG
amendment 'is included in the final bill, we will be all the stronger. If, however,
our funding is reduced we will have options. We can always nix the part-time
pool, or, most of our productions might end up being produced by part-timers. In
that case, having a pool of producers established would result in a smoother
transition.
_I II II
equipment
We have done an excellent job of gradually upgrading our video production
equipment. As it stands, we sbould not require any major purchases for the
truck, master control, Studio B, public portable, or the staff portable studio for
several years.
The last major area that should be upgraded is Studio A. We recommend
purchasing three new camera systems, a clear-com intercom system, one tripod,
two DVCPro tape decks, and microphones.
In addition to the Studio, it would be prudent to upgrade editing computers and
software, purchase an HD camcorder for highest quality sponsorship spots, and
an encoder for master control. (We are currently able to encode two programs at
once, but we will soon be faced with three city meetings occurring
simultaneously, which will require a third encoder.) We would like to add a wide
angle lens and SDI test equipment to the truck inventory, and we should also
replace some microphones. Finally, it has become apparent that we could
benefit from purchasing a cargo van. (Used would be fine.) It would make
transporting the staff portable studio and the van scaffolding much simpler.
We should budget for these expenses, but consider the legislative climate before
spending it.
A table of recommended equipment purchases for 2007 is attached to this report.
5
S'1
_I II II
facing the future
An important goal for 2007 is to outline a strategy for survival of community
programming in the North Suburbs if national franchising legislation should
become law. There are going to be a lot of things to contemplate. The strategic
planning report we receive in 2006 will be helpful in considering steps to be taken
to meet our probable funding challenges. A subscriber survey could be helpful in
determining which services are more important than others to our viewers. Both
will be useful tools for planning for a challenging future.
Staff will work closely with the Operations Committee and Cable Commission to
outline possible scenarios for delivering desired servic~s, redefining sources of
funding, and if necessary, adjusting staffing levels and structure.
_I II II
peg fee
We are currently at the maximum PEG fee allowed by our Memorandum of
Understanding. We are, however, allowed to increase that level annually to
cover cost of living increases. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the
average CPI for 2005 was 3.4%. Increasing the current PEG fee by this amount
results in a nine-cent increase per subscriber, per month, to $2.73.
Considering our current dilemma regarding future funding, I believe it would be
prudent to take advantage of our ability to increase our funding by this amount for
next year. If a "do no harm" amendment is included in future legislation we will
be positioned very well, and can consider whether we want to leave it at that
level for the following year. If the amendment is not included, the amount of your
PEG fee will be inconsequential.
_I II II
conclusion
We have a good thing going here. Our hope is that we are able to continue to
provide the services and programs at the level that our cities, producers, and
viewers have come to rely on. We have established some optimistic goals for
next year that assume our funding level will not be decreased. At the same time,
we will work to be prepared for a less than ideal future.

Budget Line Item Supporting Information
Personnel
· All salaries are estimated to include any expected step increase and a maximum of a
3% cost of living increase. The actual cost of living increase will be determined and
approved by the Cable Commission, based on the average of member cities'
increase, at their December 2006 meeting.
· Both the Executive Director and Programming Coordinator salaries are split between
the two budgets.
· Five part-time production assistant positions have been added. They would earn up
to $425 per month (up to 42 hours per month at $10 per hour) and would not be
eligible for health benefits or PERA. Payroll taxes would apply. Some of the
benefits of having a pool of part-time producers include a more reliable and
consistently trained crew for van shoots, the ability to produce more programs, a
reservoir of individuals who may be interested in also working for cities to tape
meetings, and an overall increase in the quality of our final product. The technical
quality of our programs is of particular interest to us, as we are working to develop a
commercial sponsorship program.
Benefits
· Health/Dental coverage, ADD, STD, L TD, Life and Workers Compo The NMTC's
contribution to PERA increased from 6.0% to 6.25% of employees wages.
Insurance/Bonds
· Insurance was increased 10% for 2007, primarily to reflect the increased budgets.
Office Expenses
· Building security is based on 2006 151 quarter costs and is split SO/50 with the Media
Center.
· Postage and subscriptions covers the cost of mailing dubs, equipment for contract
maintenance, magazines, and other postage for the Media Center.
· Office supply line item reflects costs associated with printing publicity materials,
printing labels for dubs, and potential problems with older printers and fax machines.
· Telephone/lnternetlWeb Hosting costs reflect additional web costs, increases in
telephone costs, and the annual phone software upgrade. Split SO/50 with
Commission.
· Trash, Recycling, and Janitorial are based on current actual costs including inflation
considerations. Split SO/50 with Commission.
· Building maintenance includes lawn care, snow removal, heating/cooling
maintenance contract, annual fire inspection, carpet cleaning, window cleaning,
-22-
10
landscaping needs, and miscellaneous costs. Costs are based 2006 actual costs,
and consider an increase. Split 50/50 with Commission.
· Building utilities include gas, electric, and water. I think we all know why this line
item was increased.
Other Administrative Costs
· Advertising/Marketing includes printing for flyers, rate cards, and other promotional
materials. It also includes clothing items for the volunteer rewards program.
· Audit is based on 2007 actual cost and rounded up to cover anticipated annual
increase in cost. Split SO/50 with the Commission.
· Awards Ceremony/ Entry Fees includes the trophies, food, and facility for the annual
awards ceremony and entry fees for national video contest.
· Conferences: Because of tight budget constraints we plan to send people to the
local MACT A conference only.
· Memberships include The Alliance for Community Media, the local arts alliance, and
Sam's Club.
Vehicle Expenses
· The gas line item was increased to reflect the increasing cost of fuel and perhaps a
second fleet vehicle.
Production Expenses
· While we have a staff vehicle, shoots often occur simultaneously requiring some staff
to utilize their own vehicles.
· Bulbs/Batteries/Other Production Costs include:
Camera Batteries $2,500
Gaffer tape $500
Studio Bulbs $1.000
$4,000
· Computer Upgrades include rebuilding several workstations and upgrading some
software.
Capital Expenditures
. Capital expenditures include all equipment necessary upgrade Studio A, add an
encoder to master control so we can encode three programs at one time, an HD
camcorder for higher quality ad options, and various microphones, lenses and pieces
of test equi pment.
. We would like to purchase a cargo van so that we can transport our scaffolding more
efficiently and safely. A used van would be fine.

Re: Local Board of Appeal and Equalization Training
Dear Ms. Bender:
As you know, state law requires that at least one member at each meeting of the Local Board of
Appeal and Equalization has taken a Department of Revenue local board training course within
the last four years. I am notifying you as a courtesy that the Minnesota Association of Townships
is offering "Board of Appeal and Equalization Certification" as a workshop during their summer
short course. Enclosed is a pre-registration form if any of your board members are interested.
Should you have any questions regarding this training please contact the Department of Revenue
directly.
Sincerely,
~ e;,~
