Management’s Discussion and Analysis <br /> <br /> <br />The MSA Construction fund has a total fund balance of $3,819,453, all of which is assigned <br />to capital improvements for City MSA designated roadways. The fund balance during the <br />current year increased by $684,606 primarily due to Municipal State Aid received. <br /> <br />The combined fund balance of other governmental funds decreased by $330,417 during <br />2022. Primary reason for the decrease is unrealized losses on investments. <br /> <br />Proprietary funds. The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information <br />found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. <br /> <br />The Water Fund has total net position at year-end of $32,657,480, of which $4,834,564 is <br />unrestricted. The increase in net position of $1,199,257 was primarily due to capital <br />contributions from private sources as a result of residential development. <br /> <br />The Sewer Fund has total net position at year-end of $31,454,327 of which $9,484,680 is <br />unrestricted. The increase in net position of $2,920,932 was primarily due to capital <br />contributions from private sources as a result of residential development. <br /> <br />The Storm Water Fund has total net position at year-end of $255,159 of which all is <br />unrestricted. A Storm Water Utility was established in 2022 to fund the operation and <br />management of the City’s storm water infrastructure. <br /> <br />Budgetary Highlights <br /> <br />General Fund <br /> <br />There were amendments to the original budget in 2022. The expenditure and transfers out <br />budget was decreased by $101,113 to total $11,563,649. Amendments to the budget resulted <br />in a budgeted use of reserves of $398,887, in which the use of $500,000 of reserves was <br />included in the original budget. <br /> <br />Revenues were $197,504 over budget for the year primarily due to less than anticipated <br />unrealized losses on investments. Expenditures came in under budget by $140,150 primarily <br />due to lower than expected personal services costs mostly driven by vacant positions. <br /> <br />Capital Asset and Debt Administration <br /> <br />Capital assets. The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business- <br />type activities as of December 31, 2022, amounted to $113,064,408 (net of accumulated <br />depreciation), an increase of $8,370,137 from the prior year. This investment in capital <br />assets includes land, wetland credits, construction in progress, buildings, equipment, <br />vehicles, and infrastructure. <br /> <br />27
