ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT XU ADJOURNMENT I-~- - I !f", -", . March 29, 2002 7241 Ohms Lane Suite 200 Edina, MN 55439 Members of the City Council City of Centerville, Minnesota We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the City of Centerville for the year ended December 31, 2001 and have issued our report thereon dated March 29, 2002. 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 and Government A uditing Standards 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 performing our audit of the general purpose financial statements of the City, for the year ended December 31. 200 I, we considered its internal control in order to detennine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the general purpose fmancial 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. summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the general purpose 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, your organization has limited segregation of duties. Good internal control contemplates an adequate segregation of duties so that no one individual handles a transaction from inception to completion. While we recognize that your organization is not large enough to permit an adequate segregation of duties in all respects, it is important, however, that you be aware of this condition. 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 general purpose financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of perfonning their assigned functions. Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses as defined above. However, the reportable condition described above is believed to be a material weakness. 952.835.9090 Fax 952.835.3261 www.aemcpas.com .'f t City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Two As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose 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 and it is described below. Collateral Coverage In accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 118A.03, the City is required to pledge collateral equal to 110 percent of the deposits not covered with insurance. At December 31, 2001, the City did not have the full 110 percent of collateral pledged. We recommend that the City consider collateral coverage as part of the monthly bank reconciliation and cash flow planning process. 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 general purpose financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not changed during 2001. We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year that were both significant and unnsual, 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 general purpose 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 significance to the general purpose 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 was depreciation on enterprise fund fixed assets. Management's estimate of depreciation is based on estimated useful lives of the assets. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop this estimate in determining 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 matters 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 recorded 42 journal entries. Our journal entries are attached. Entries number I, 2, 3, 10, II, 12, 26, 34, 40 and 42 would be considered audit adjustments. The remaining are a combination of correcting, reclassifying and year end balance adjusting entries. The year end balance adjusting entries are typically the responsibility of a City. When we prepare the schedules and make the entries it results in additional time and expense for the City. We will continue to try to provide you with the information to do these entries internally. This will result in more relevant, timely information on an on going basis. We have reported in the past that the correcting and reclassifying entries appear to result from insufficient knowledge on the purpose of each fund and the lack of complete month end reconciliation. These two factors again appear to be the main cause of the majority of the entries. This resulted in intemal information that was not reliable for Councilor Administration. Another factor that also reduced the reliability and accuracy of internal information was a haphazard method of processing data. There was no systematic way of initiating or approving transactions or coding recurring transactions. This resulted in several duplicate payments and coding errors. Documented, well-thought out procedures would help the City to consistently code transactions and report information. We provided staff with a list of specific processing situations that resulted in errors and a recommendation to fix the error. ~ t City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Three 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 general purpose financial statements or the auditors' report. We are 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 general purpose financial statements or a determination of the type of auditors' 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 accountants. Issues Discussed Prior to Retention ofIndependent 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 MaUers The following are areas that carne to our attention during the audit that we feel should be reviewed: Financial Position and Results of Operations General Fund Overall, the fund balance decreased $192,261 during 2001. The total fund balance is $648,893 and this is approximately 32 percent of current year expenditures and transfers out. We recommend fund balance be maintained between 40 percent to 50 percent of planned expenditures and transfers out. So at the current level, the fund balance is below what is normally recommended as a minimum. The State has recently indicated they may consider reviewing fund balance reserves of local governments when adjusting the local government aid formulas. This may negatively impact the City if reserves in excess of the amount needed for working capital are not designated. A designation indicates intended use of fund balance. We recommend the City make designations for intended use of fund balance when the amount is above the 50 percent threshold for working capital. The table below summarizes fund balance and expenditures from the last five years.

Expenditures are incurred somewhat evenly throughout the year. However, 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. Your fund balance appears to be sufficient to provide this working capitaL . The City is vulnerable to legislative actions at the State and Federal level. The State eliminated HACA aid with the 2001 legislative session. 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 maintaining or improving its bond rating. A summary of the 200 I operations is as follows: Budget Actual Variance - Favorable (Unfavorable) Revenue $ 1,654,582 $ 1,790,729 $ 136,377 Expenditures 1.532.352 1.929.024 (396.672 ) Excess (deficiency) of revenue over expenditures 122.000 (138.295 ) (260.295 ) Other financing sources (uses) Operating transfers in 68,034 68,034 Operating transfers out (122.000) !122.0oo ) Excess (deficiency) of revenue and other financing sources over expenditures and other financing uses $ (192,261) $ (]92 261) Fund Balance, January I 841.154 Fund Balance, December 31 $ 648 893 . The majority of the favorable revenue variance resulted from licenses and permits in excess of budget by $83,438. . Interest income was $55,908 under budget. Even with a 5 percent rate of return the budget would be too high. Interest rates were around 3 percent to 5 percent at the beginning of the year and 1.5 percent to 3 percent at the end of the year. The City needs to consider its current cash balance when setting the budget for interest. . The majority of the unfavorable expenditure variance resulted from capital outlay in excess of budget by $290,223. . The City does not budget for the Fire aid revenue and subsequent payment to the relief association. The payment to the Relief was $100,393 and accounted for over 25 percent of the expenditure variance. We recommend the Fire aid and payment be reflected in the budget. L_ 1-- ."

The proposed entries were provided to the City in January 2002 but the Council delayed action due to further research needed by City staff. Debt Service Funds A comparison of the assets of each fund and the remaining bonds outstanding at year end are as follows: Cash and Investment Total Bonds Fund Balance Assets Outstanding Maturity Flood Plains Reduction $ 25,082 $ 31,303 $ 35,100 2002 1979 Improvements 1,192 1,341 1987 Improvements 30,685 37,106 100,000 2003 1993 Acorn Creek Improvements (38,296 ) (25,892 ) Municipal Building (90,361) (31,326) 112,732 2003 Clearwater Meadows 143,349 148,848 94,900 2002 Elementary School Water Extension 261,557 312,875 310,000 2008 Parkview Development 463,165 480,589 510,000 2009 G.O.

Through research, the original assessment amount did not appear to be sufficient to pay all principal and interest. The City began levying in 1997 for this bond and for the Municipal Building capital lease. The City will continue to transfer the amount levied from the General to the 1987 Improvements and the Municipal Building funds. The City made a final payment of project costs in the 1993 Acorn Creek Improvements fund. We recommended that this fund along with the 1979 Improvements be closed with transfers in our prior management letter. These entries were also provided to the City in January 2002 and delayed pending further research on some capital projects fund transfers. During the audit we noted several debt transactions that were miscoded and duplicate payments. The duplicate payment was a result of receiving two invoices for the same payment, but internal records should have caught the double billing. The City has to establish a master list of all bond issues outstanding, the amounts due and the payment dates. Use of this list would prevent prepayment and miscoding. L__ __ _ r~ City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Eight Capital Projects Funds The following funds were established to account for the resources used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities. As projects are completed, any remaining funds should be transferred to their funding source. The following funds along with their fund balance or deficit are included in this group: Increase Fund 2001 2000 (Decrease ) Park $ 109,816 $ 107,013 $ 2,803 Fire 5,853 5,704 149 TIP Projects 94,516 136,544 (42,028 ) Pedestrian Trail ways (352) (352) Storm Water 188,826 171,360 17,466 Eagle Pass Addition (11,152) (10,786) (366) Lakeland Hills (45,898 ) (45,898) TIP District 1-4 (2,550) (160) (2,390) TIP District 1-5 (6,233 ) (6,503) 270 Parkview Development 43,811 24,481 (8,761) Woods of Clearwater Creek 25,121 52,572 640 Willow Glen Development 10,579 10,311 268 21" Avenue Improvements (8,467 ) (4,900) (3,567) Center Villa (40,553 ) (36,888 ) (3,665) Buechler Estates 1,943 2,322 (379) Deer Pass (3,599) (2,985) (614) Royal Industrial Park (90,186) (88,857 ) (1,329) Public Works Building (6,029) (6,029) Lift Station #2 Renovation (159,422 ) (151,619) (7,803) Hunters Crossing 64,702 125,549 (60,847 ) Downtown Revitalization (8,560) (3,019) (5,541) Pheasant Marsh 413,548 (1,328) 414,876 The Shores (1,018) (1,018 ) Economic Development Commission (1521) 2.985 (4.506) Total $ 573.175 $ 279517 $ 293658 Many of the capital projects funds have a deficit at the end of the year. We have recommended that each fund be researched to dctermine if the deficits are permanent and to make transfers to close each completed project out. We also provided the City entries in January to close several of the funds and a list of funds that have had minimal activity but needed further research. The transfers were delayed pending research on what oversizing was completed for some of the projects. This research was not completed by the time we were completing audit fieldwork. The City needs to have a better understanding of the financing of these projects when the project is initiated. There also needs to be timely close out of completed projects. Several of these projects have been on the financial statements for many years past their completion. There doesn't appear to be good process for organizing project data. The City should have centralized filing for projects from start to completion and the files should contain all the necessary financing information. This would eliminate the need for unnecessary research several years after the financing was discussed. We recommend that transfers and filing be completed in 2002. ) City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Nine Enterprise Funds Water Fund The results of the operations and cash position of the Water fund for the past three years are as follows: Percent Percent Percent 2001 of Total 2000 of Total 1999 of Total Charges for services $ 184,481 100.0% $ 146,321 100.0 % $ 119,627 100.0 % Operating expenses 154.722 83.9 85.511 58.4 94.208 78.8 Operating income 29,759 16.1 60,810 41.6 25,419 21.2 Nonoperating income 165.916 89.9 129.134 ~ 223.681 187.0 Net income before transfer $ 195.675 ...1Q6.Q % $ I R9 944 ~% $ 249 100 ~% Cash balance, December 31 $ 1.264755 $ 1 093 145 $ 902 433 Bonds payable $ 267.000 $ 294 000 $ 324 000 The hook-up fees generate revenue for expansion of the system. These fees contributed to the majority of the large cash balance. The rates currently appear adequate and are at a level sufficient to provide for the operation of the system, but the City should evaluate them annually. Sewer Fund The results of operations and cash position of the Sewer fund for the past three years are as follows: Charges for services Operating expenses $ Percent Percent Percent 2001 of Total 2000 of Total 1999 of Total 202,121 100.0% $ 181,415 100.0 % $ 148,870 100.0% 188.248 -2D 214.089 118.0 240.347 161.5 13,873 6.9 (32,674 ) (18.0) (91,477 ) (61.5) 187 .036 92.5 215.656 118.9 348.897 234.4 200 909 ~% $ I R2.982 ~% $ 251 420 j 72.9 % Operating income Nonoperating income Net income $ Cash balance, December 31 $ I R I R 376 $ 333 000 $ I 669712 $ I 473267 Bonds payable $ 366.000 $ 396 000 The Sewer cash also is very high compared with operating expenses but large hook-up fees have also been a major factor in the increase. The operations before hook-up fees have been at a loss for several years until 2001. It is important that the City review rates to ensure that the revenue is high enough to cover operating expenses. As mentioned in the Water fund analysis, the hook-up fees should be used for the expansion of the system. J City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Ten Other Items Local Tax on Gambling Organizations The City has an ordinance that requires a local tax on lawful gaming operations. There seems to be some confusion on what the gambling organizations owe and why they owe. The City should have a clear understanding of what they are entitled to and have a system to check the accuracy of what they are provided. This comment was initiated by the fact that the City had several payments received in January 2002 that were not identified on the receipt and when discussed it still was not clear what each payment was for. Investing Funds At December 31, 2001, the City had $3,328,039 in a checking account earning .75 percent. The lowest balance was approximately $950,000 in February 2001. The average appeared to be approximately $2,000,000. The City should be monitoring this balance and invest it appropriately. Filing Information We mentioned deficiency in capital projects filing earlier in the letter. We also noted that a thorough process of filing invoices is lacking. We observed several occasions where a significant time was spent in looking for an invoice. We recommend that the City consider its current filing system and improve the organization. Claim Approval The City's consent agenda indicates the Council is approving disbursements when it is really approving claims. It is important that the consent agenda accurately reflect that the City is preapproving rather than subsequently approving expenditures. Statutes don't allow for subsequent approval unless the appropriate resolution delegating approval authority to staff has been passed and that resolution has not been done. Invoice Approval Process According to City staff, several commissions have been allowed to initiate transactions outside the typical approval process. Normally a commission could make recommendations that a Council would approve and then staff would act upon. The current structure takes away from some checks and balances that should exist with administrative approvaL We recommend that any committee or commission only be allowed to recommend action and never initiate transactions. TIF Revenue Note The City has a TIP revenue note with Northern Forest Products. The amortization of the note was amended in 2000. The City paid on the note based on an old amortization. This resulted in what appeared to be a $4,000 to 5,000 overpayment. The amount paid was also in excess of the TIP received in total of the December 2000 and June 2001 settlement. The City has no obligation to pay more than what is received. The City has to be aware of the TIP agreements that are in place and the amount of their obligation. The City should also request reimbursement for the overpayment. Utility Account Set-up Water accounts are not set up until the occupancy permits are issued. This leaves a gap between when they are installed and when they are set up on the billing. We recommend that when the plumbing permit is issued that the account be set up on the system. The permit form can be modified to include all the pertinent info that would be used by the utility billing clerk. This would include the serial number on both the meter and the remote and the current reading on the meter if it isn't zero. The billing information could be changed when the new resident applies for homestead status or at the time the occupancy permit is issued. o City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Eleven Agency Funds The City does not maintain a detailed reconciliation of its escrow accounts. This needs completion to ensure the City bills the account for all appropriate charges obtained from the finance system. We recommend that all escrow accounts be reconciled on a monthly basis to the finance system. Building Fee Reporting Requirement The 2001 Legislature provided for law MS 16B.685 which requires all municipalities to file an annual construction and development-related fee report to the Department of Administration. The first report will be due April I , 2003 and will cover the year ended December 31, 2002. The content of the report will be as follows: 1. The number and valuation of units for which fees were paid. 2. The amount of building permit fees, plan review fees, administrative fees, engineering fees, infrastructure fees and other construction and development related fees. 3. The expenses associated with the municipal activities for which fees were collected. The first two items have always been available while the third may require additional effort to report the most accurate information. Most cities have not allocated indirect costs to the Building Department. Some consideration of all the costs directly and indirectly related to providing Building Department services will help the City report the most accurate information. It doesn't appear that there is a consequence to reporting profitable operations but this information could be used for further lobbying efforts and legislation aimed at restricting the amount of the fees. If needed, we are prepared to provide assistance in completing the form. Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements. and Management's Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local Governments GASB Statement No. 34 is the result of an almost decade-long effort by GASB to reexamine the financial reporting model for state and local govermnents. The most notable change is the presentation of a set of highly aggregated, "full accrual" financial statements. At the same time, however, the Statement retains many familiar features of current govermnental fmancial reporting, in particular fund-based financial statements. State and local govermnental financial statement preparers and auditors will need to comprehend and implement a vast number of changes in accounting and financial reporting. They will have to explain those changes to perwns who are unfamiliar with the particulars of accounting, much less the unique area of state and local govermnental accounting. The following are some specific areas that need to be addressed with the implementation of this new statement: Timeline GASB Statement No. 34 is effective in three phases based on the total annual revenues of the primary govermnent's governmental and proprietary funds, although earlier application is encouraged. For this purpose, revenues include all revenues except for other financing sources and certain extraordinary items. The total annual revenues of the City for 1999 were $3,210,443. Based on this calculation, the City is considered to be phase 3. Therefore, the City is required to implement GASB Statement No. 34 for the calendar year ending 2004. Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) MD&A gives an objective and easily readable analysis of a govermnent's financial activities based on currently known facts, decisions, or conditions. It presents short- and long-term analyses of the government's activities, compares current-year results with those of the prior year, and discusses the positive and negative aspects of that comparison. City of Centerville March 29, 2002 Page Twelve Government-wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements are (1) a statement of net assets and (2) a statement of activities. The statement of net assets presents the government's financial position at a point in time (like a balance sheet does); the statement of activities presents its activities during a period (like an operating statement does). These statements present bighly aggregated information for the overall government; they do not display individual funds or fund types. They also present financial information in separate rows and columns for the (1) primary government's aggregate governmental activities, (2) primary government's aggregate business-type activities, (3) total primary government, and (4) discretely presented component units. Capital Assets Capital assets are tangible and intangible asset, that are used in operations that have initial useful lives longer than one year. They include land and improvements, easements, buildings and improvements, equipment, and works of art and historical treasures. Capital assets also include infrastructure assets - normally stationary capital assets that can be preserved for significantly greater number of years than most capital assets. Infrastructure assets include roads, bridges and tunnels; water, sewer and drainage systems; dams; lighting systems; and buildings that are an ancillary part of a network of infrastructure assets. Capital assets are reported in the statement of net assets at historical cost (or estimated fair value, if donated) and net of accumulated depreciation. They are depreciated in the statement of activities over their estimated useful lives. Infrastructure Assets GASB Statement No. 34 applies prospectively to all general infrastructure assets beginning at the effective dates of the Statement (or earlier, if the statement is implemented earlier). Governments are also encouraged to apply the Statement retroactively to all existing major general infrastructure assets at that time. However, phase 1,2 governments need not retroactively report those assets until calendar year 2006, 2007 - four years after their required implementation of Statement No. 34. Phase 3 govermnents are encouraged but not required to report major general infrastructure assets retroactively. If there are inadequate records of the actual historical cost of existing general infrastructure assets, govermnents can estimate historical cost They also may limit retroactive application to only those major general infrastructure assets that were acquired or significantly reconstructed, or that received significant improvements, in fiscal years ending after June 30, 1980. The above gives you some general information on GASB Statement No. 34 implementation. We intend to educate and work with all of our clients in developing a plan to implement this new statement As a result of implementing this statement, there will no doubt be additional fees for our services. These expected increases will most likely result from additional time spent in the areas of (1) training, (2) account structure modifications to provide information necessary to prepare financial statements, (3) accounting for fixed assets, infrastructure assets and related depreciation, and (4) financial statement preparation. The more that the City staff can do in the areas of fixed asset accounting and proper account structure will help in reducing these costs. We will help you as much as possible to accomplish this.

These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements hased on our audit. Except as discussed in the following paragraph, we conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whetber the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall general purpose financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. The City does not maintain a record of its general fixed assets as required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Because we were unable to satisfy ourselves by appropriate audit tests or by other means, we are unable to express an opinion on the accompanying general fixed assets account group. In our opinion, except for the effects on the general purpose fmancial statements of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we audited the general fixed assets account group, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the results of its operations and the cash flows of its proprietary fund type for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 29, 2002 on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules listed in the table of contents are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general purpose financial statements of the City. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole.

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 (I) the ability of the primary government to impose its will on that organization or (2) the potentia] for the organization to provide specific benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary government. The City's reporting entity does not include any component units. B. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation The accounts of the City are organized and operated on the basis of funds and account groups. A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with self-balancing sets of accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance- related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds are maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Account groups are a reporting device to account for certain assets and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds. The City has the following fund types and account groups: Governmentalfunds are used to account for the City's general government activities. Governmental fund types use the flow of current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are umeasurable and available"). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined, and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. The City considers all revenues available if they are collected within 60 days after year end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for unmatured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and certain compensated absences and claims and judgments which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, interest and special assessments are susceptible to accrual. Other receipts and taxes become measurable and available when cash is received by the government and are recognized as revenue at that time. I The preparation of general purpose financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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. I Entitlements and shared revenues are recorded at the time of receipt or earlier if the susceptible to accrual criteria are met. Expenditure driven grants are recognized as revenue when the qualifying expenditures have been incurred and all other grant requirements have been met. Governmental funds include the following fund types: I The genera/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. I The special revenue funds account for revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes (not including major capital projects). I The debt service funds account for the servicing of general long-term debt not being financed by proprietary funds. I -10- CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED Compensated Absences It is the City's policy to pennit employees to accumulate a limited amount of earned but unused vacation, which is paid to the employee upon separation. Sick leave may be accumulated but is not payable upon termination from City employment for regular employees. Union employees are allowed severance equal to their unused compensatory time and half their accrued sick leave up to a maximum of 400 hours after 10 years of service. In governmental fund types the cost of these benefits is recoguized when payments are made to the employees. A liability of$14,151 represents accrued vacation, sick and compensatory time unused at year end. The liability has been recorded in the generaliong-term debt account group. Long-term Obligations The City reports long-term debt of governmental funds at face value in the general long-term debt account group. Certain other governmental fund obligations not expected to be financed with current available fmancial resources are also reported in the general long-term debt account group. Long-term debt and other obligations fmanced by proprietary funds are reported as liabilities in the appropriate funds. For governmental fund types, bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are recoguized during the current period. Bond proceeds are reported as an other fmancing source net of the applicable premium or discount. Issuance costs, other than those withheld from the actual net proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures. For proprietary fund types, bond issuance costs and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight line method. Fund Equity Reservations of fund balance represent amounts that are not appropriable or are legally segregated for a specific purpose. Reservations of retained earnings are limited to outside third-party restrictions. Desiguations of fund balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change. The proprietary fund's contributed capital represents equity acquired through capital grants and capital contributions from developers, customers or other funds. Memorandum Only - Total Columns Total colunms on the general purpose financial statements are captioned as "memorandwn only" because they do not represent consolidated fmancial inIorrnation and are presented only to facilitate fmancial analysis. The columns do not present infonnation that reflects [mancial position, results of operations or cash flows in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data. Comparative DataJRec1assifications Comparative total data for the prior year have been presented in the selected sections of the accompanying financial statements in order to provide an understanding of changes in the City's fmancial position and operations. Also, certain amounts presented in the prior year data have been reclassified in order to be consistent with the current year's presentation. Note 2: STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY A. Budgetary Information Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for the general fund. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end. The City does not use encumbrance accounting. In August of each year, all departments of the City submit requests for appropriations to the City Administrator so 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 fmal budget is prepared and adopted in early December. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. The City's department heads, 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. There were no budget amendments made during the year. -13- r--- CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 Note 2: STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY - CONTINUED B.

PIau Description All full-time and certain part-time employees of the City are covered by defined benefit plans administered by the Public Emp]oyees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF), which is a cost-sharing, multiple-emp]oyer retirement plan. The plan is established and administered in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 353 and 356. PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan members are covered by Socia] Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members must participate in the Coordinated Plan. PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to survivors upon death of eligible members. Benefits are established by State 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 formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2). Under Method I, 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 members and 1.7 percent for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service. -19- CITY OF CENTERVlLLE, MINNESOTA NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 Note 4: DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS - STATEWIDE. CONTINUED For all PERF members whose annuity is calculated using Method I, 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 nonnal 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 nonnal annuity amount, because the annuity is payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their contributions 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 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 contributions. These statutes are established and amended by the state legislature. The City makes annual contributions to the pension plans equal to the amount required by state statutes. PERF Basis Plan members and Coordinated Plan members are required to contribute 8.75 percent and 4.75 percent, respectively, of their annual covered salary. The City is required to contribute the following percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.43 percent for Basic Plan PERF members and 5.18 percent for Coordinated Plan PERF members. Member and employer contribution rates for Basic and Coordinated members will increase by 0.35 percent effective January 2002. The City's contributions to the PERF for the year ended December 31,2001,2000 and 1999 were $15,963, $15,736 and $14,953, respectively. The City's contributions were equal to the contractually required contributions for each year as set by State Statute. Note 5: OTHER INFORMA TION A. Risk Management The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, 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. -20- - --I CITY OF CENTERVILLE, MINNESOTA NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 2001 Note 5: OTHER INFORMATION.

The total taxable market value of property within the City is $154,675,000, which leaves a debt margin of $3,093,500.

The City in turn will be receiving payments from the District of $2,270 for 15 years on the apparatus values and $4,973 for 10 years on the equipment values. Tbe Council passed a resolution to have these funds recorded in the City's fire capital projects fund. Tbese payments are recognized as revenue when they are received. The City pays an annual membership fee to the District based on their percentage of the computed annual depreciation on the apparatus and equipment values. The District still houses equipment in the City's building and pays for a share of the utilities. 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 bousing within the City.

MN 55439 REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Centerville, Minnesota We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the City of Centerville, Minnesota as of and for the year ended December 31, 200 I, and have issued our report thereon dated March 29, 2002. In ourreport, our opinion was qualified because the general fixed asset account group was not audited. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the provisions of the Minnesota LelZal Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government, promulgated by the Legal Compliance Task Force pursuant to Minnesota Statute Sec. 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 Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government covers five main categories of compliance to be tested: contracting and bidding, deposits and investments, conflicts of interest, public indebtedness, claims and disbursements. 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 as noted below. In accordance with Minnesota Statutes, section 118A.03, the City is required to pledge collateral equal to 110 percent of their deposits not covered with insurance. At December 31, 2001, the City did not have the full1l0 percent of collateral pledged. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council, management 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.

Minnesota We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the City of Centerville, Minnesota as of and for the year ended December 31. 2001 and have issued our report thereon dated March 29, 2002. In our report. our opinion was qualified because the general fixed assets account group was not audited. Except as discussed in the preceding sentence, we conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Compliance As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws. regulations. contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the deteanination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed an instance of noncompliance that is required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. It is identified on page 49. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and perfoaning 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 general purpose financial statements and not to provide assurance 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. Reportable conditions involve matters conting 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 general purpose financial statements. Our study and evaluation disclosed that because of the lintited size of your office staff, your City has lintited segregation of duties. A good internal control structure contemplates an adequate segregation of duties so that no one individual handles a transaction from inception to completion. While we recognize that your City is not large enough to permit an adequate segregation of duties in all respects, it is important, however, that you be aware of this reportable condition. 952.835.9090 Fax 952.835.3261 -50- www.aemcpas.com . . ~ , .' .. Page Two 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 amonnts that would be material in relation to the general purpose financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by emplnyees 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 migbt be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses. However, we believe the reportable condition described above is a material weakness, We also noted other matters involving the internal control over financial reporting that we have reported to management of the City in a separate letter dated March 29, 2002. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the City 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 specifies parties.
