Management’s Discussion and Analysis
<br />
<br />
<br />Government-Wide Financial Analysis
<br />
<br />As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's
<br />financial position. In the case of the City, assets exceeded liabilities by $88,543,987 at the
<br />close of the most recent fiscal year.
<br />
<br />The largest portion of the City’s net position ($50,457,954, or 57%) reflects its net
<br />investment in capital assets (e.g. land, buildings, equipment, and infrastructure) less any
<br />related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City uses these capital
<br />assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future
<br />spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt,
<br />it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other
<br />sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
