Hwy. 96 • White Bear Lake, MN 55110 • Phone 426 -3263 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Lino Lakes Lino Lakes, Minnesota ROBERT J. VOTO, CPA TIMOTHY E. REARDON, CPA ROBERT G. TAUTGES, CPA We have examined the general purpose financial statements of the CITY OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA, and the combining, individual fund, and account group financial statements of the City as of and for the year ended December 31, 1985, as listed in the table of contents. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and, accordingly, included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances, except as stated in the following paragraph. The City does not maintain complete accounting controls over quantities and costs of general fixed assets. Therefore, we were not able to obtain sufficient evidential matter to form an opinion regarding the amounts at which property, plant and equipment are recorded in the General Fixed Assets Group of accounts at December 31, 1985 or 1984 (stated at $1,057,862 and $728,017 respectively). Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on this account group. In our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been able to obtain sufficient evidential matter regarding the City's General Fixed Asset account group, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position of the CITY OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA at December 31, 1985, and the results of its operations and changes in financial position of its proprietary fund type for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year. Also, in our opinion, except for the effects of such adjustments, if any, as might have been determined to be necessary had we been able to obtain sufficient evidential matter regarding the City's General Fixed Asset account group, the combining, individual fund, and account group financial statements referred to above present fairly the financial position of the individual funds and account groups of the CITY OF LINO LAKES, MINNESOTA at December 31, 1985 and the results of operations of such funds, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
