<br />(33) <br /> <br />INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Honorable Mayor, Members of the <br />City Council, and Citizens <br />City of Gem Lake, Minnesota <br /> <br /> <br />We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of <br />America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards <br />issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental <br />activities, the business-type activities, and each major fund of the City of Gem Lake, as of and for the <br />year ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively <br />comprise the City’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated August 28, <br />2020. <br /> <br />In connection with our audit, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that the City of <br />Gem Lake, failed to comply with the provisions of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for <br />Cities, except as described in the schedule of findings and recommendations as item 2019-004. <br />However, our audit was not directed primarily toward obtaining knowledge of such noncompliance. <br />Accordingly, had we performed additional procedures, other matters may have come to our attention <br />regarding the City of Gem Lake’s noncompliance with the above-referenced provisions, insofar as they <br />relate to accounting matters. <br /> <br />The City’s response to the finding identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of <br />findings and responses. The City’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in <br />the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. <br /> <br />The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of compliance and the results of <br />that testing, and not to provide an opinion on compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not <br />suitable for any other purpose. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />CliftonLarsonAllen LLP <br />Minneapolis, Minnesota <br />August 28, 2020
