When you need it " INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Roseville Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Roseville, Minnesota, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the related Notes to the Financial Statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the Table of Contents. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Roseville Firefighter Relief Association, which statements reflect a long term net pension benefit of $ 203,163 as of December 31, 2012. Those Statements were audited by other auditors, whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Roseville Firefighters Relief Association, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. 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 whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the City's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
