Under this plan the government of the City is run by a council composed of an elected mayor and four elected councilmen. The council exercises legislative authority and determines all matters of policy. The council appoints administrative personnel who are responsible for the proper administration of all affairs relating to the City. DESCRIPTION OF FUNDS GENERAL FUND The General Fund was established to account for the revenue and expenditures necessary to provide basic governmental services for the City. The principal sources of revenue are property taxes, intergovernmental revenue, licenses and permits, and charges for current services. Expenditures are for general government, general services, protective inspection and other functions. A plan of financial operation is set forth each year in the form of the annual budget adopted by the council. SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS Special revenue funds are established to account for the proceeds from special tax levies and other dedicated revenues to be used for a specified purpose. The following funds are included in this group: Fire Protection Fund Police Fund Civil Defense Fund Parks and Playgrounds Fund Road and Bridge Fund Revenue Sharing Fund SAC Fund Metro Sewer Fund 1 DEBT SERVICE FUND II The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the payment of principal and interest II on general obligation bonds issued by the City. They are retired out of the receipts of ad valorem levies established for that purpose. Revenue and Special Assessment bonds are not included in this group. They are serviced out of their respective funds. I The fund is used to retire the Municipal Building Bonds of 1970. SPECIAL ASSESSMENT FUND The Special Assessment Fund is established to account for the receipt and disbursement of bond proceeds or other sources obtained to finance improvements which are to be paid for wholly or in part from special assessments levied against benefited property. The fund also accounts for assessments levied against individual property owners and I use the assessments collected to retire the Improvement Bonds of 1974. PUBLIC ENTERPRISE FUND The Public Enterprise Fund is used to account for the financing of services to the general public where all or most of the costs involved are recovered by charges to users of such services. Any revenue bonds issued are serviced out of the net revenues of the enterprise. ' Water and Sewer Fund - This fund was established to account for the operation of the City -owned water and sewer system. ' 1 GENERAL FIXED ASSETS This separate group of accounts contains the fixed assets of the City, other than those accounted for in the enterprise funds. I 1 GENERAL LONG -TERM DEBT GROUP OF ACCOUNTS This group of accounts contains the long -term debt of the City resulting from general obligation bonds issued. The debt is an obligation of the City as a whole and not of individual funds. 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ANFINSON, HENDRICKSON . fh CO. ORIS A. HENDRICKSON, C. P. A. DONALD D.

' The City Council and Residents City of Lino Lakes Lino Lakes, Minnesota CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS AFFILIATED WITH NATIONAL CPA GROUP MEMBER FIRMS IN PRINCIPAL CITIES 10501 WAYZATA BOULEVARD MINNETONKA, MINNESOTA 55343 TELEPHONE (612) 545 -0421 We have examined the balance sheets of the various funds and account groups of the City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota as of December 31, 1976 and the related statements of changes in fund balances and cash receipts and disbursements for the year then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accord - ingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances, except that we did not examine the balance sheet of General Fixed Assets for the reason stated in the following paragraph. Because the City does not maintain fixed . asset records which provide complete accounting control over quantities and costs of all equipment it was impracticable to audit the accompanying balance sheet of General Fixed Assets and we express no opinion thereon, except with respect to the basis of valuation of certain assets included therein, which is at variance with generally accepted accounting principles as more fully explained in Note 1. The accompanying financial statements do not include statements of income and retained earnings and changes in financial position for the Water and Sewer Fund nor statements of revenue and expenditures for the other funds. Accordingly, the financial statements do not present results of operations and changes in financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinion, except for the Statement of General Fixed Assets, the aforementioned balance sheets and statements of changes in fund balances present fairly the financial position of the funds and account groups of the City of Lino Lakes, Minnesota as of December 31, 1976 and the changes in fund balances of all funds for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year, after giving retroactive effect to the changes, with which we concur, in the method of accounting for delinquent taxes, delinquent special assessments, deferred special assessments and bonds payable as described in Note 7 to the Financial Statements; and the statements of cash receipts and disbursements of the funds present fairly their cash transactions for the year then ended on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.

CITY OF LINO LAKES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS December 31, 1976 Note 1: Summary of Significant. Accounting Policies The balance sheets and statements of changes in fund balances of the Water and Sewer Fund and the Special Assessments Fund were prepared on the accrual basis. The balance sheets and statements II of changes in fund balances of all other funds were prepared on the modified accrual basis whereunder fund balances essentially are credited with revenue when received and charged with expenditures' when incurred. b. Clerk's balances consist of cash on hand, cash in bank and invest- ments which are stated at cost. c. Property, plant and equipment of the Water and Sewer Fund is stated at actual or estimated original cost. Depreciation is provided on the straight -line method over the estimated useful lives of the* assets. 1 General fixed assets are stated at actual or estimated values. The policy of stating such assets at other than cost is at variance with I generally accepted accounting principles. Additions and deletions are not accounted for in detailed inventory records. Depreciation of general fixed assets is not provided for in the City's records because depreciation-does not constitute a current budgetary expenditure. The cost of these items are accounted for as current expenditures of the various funds in the year paid. Note 2: Property, Plantand Equipment Depreciation on Water and Sewer Fund assets is computed on the straight- line method at rates of 6 to 20% for equipment and 2 to 5% for all other assets. Depreciation: on contributed assets of $11,480 in the Water and Sewer Fund was charged against contributed equity. Note 3: Special Assessment Bonds In addition to the long -term debt exhibited in the Statement of Long -Term Debt, the City of Lino Lakes has a contingent liability against its full faith and credit on $180,000 for a special assessment bond recorded in the special assessment fund.

Changes occurring in this account during the year were as follows: Balance - beginning of year $418,826 Less: Current depreciation on contributed assets Balance - end of year 11,480 $407,346 Note 6: Pension Plan Substantially all City employees are covered by a statewide contributory re- tirement plan operated by the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA). The City records pension expense as the contributions come due. Contributions for 1976 were $12,024. Contribution rates are determined on a statewide basis and include provisions for prior service costs. The assets of the PERA fund were substantially less than the actuarially computed value of vested benefits as of the most recent valuation date. That part of the deficiency attributable to the City is not determinable. Note 7: Fund Balances The City has changed the method of presenting its balance sheets to include delinquent taxes receivable, delinquent special assessments receivable, deferred special assessments, and bonds payable. The fund balances were affected at January 1, 1976 as follows: Fund Fund Balance January 1, 1976 General Fire Protection Police Park Road and Bridge Debt Service Special Assessment Adjustments - Plus (Minus Delinquent Delinquent Special Taxes Assessments $ 12,742 $1,518 $ 1,978 $(11,815) . $ 11,924 $ (4,698) $ 14,182 $ 21,527 $2,277 $6,834 $1,518 $3,037 $2,232 Deferred Special Bonds Assessments Payable Fund Balance January 1, 1976 As Adjusted $14,260 $ 4,255 $(4,981) $13,442 $(1,661) $16,414 $91,040 $143,163 $(180,000) $75,730 -26- ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ORIS A.

The City Council City of Lino Lakes Lino Lakes, Minnesota Councilmembers: CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS AFFILIATED WITH NATIONAL CPA GROUP MEMBER FIRMS IN PRINCIPAL CITIES 10501 WAYZATA BOULEVARD MINNETONKA, MINNESOTA 55343 TELEPHONE 1612) 545 -0421 January 13, 1977 As part of our normal audit procedures we make observations as to the adequacy of controls over the recording of transactions and the general condition of the ac- counting records and other general comments and recommendations. The following comments and recommendations are a result of these observations. 1. Budgeting The City adopts an official budget each fall to cover the operations of the various funds for the following year. However, the form of the budget is not in fund receipt and disbursement detail and accordingly does not comply with the format suggested in the City Handbook. The League of Minnesota Municipalities has a great amount of material relating to the presentation and format of a properly prepared budget. We suggest all future City budgets be prepared as prescribed by the City Handbook. We will be happy to assist in making the necessary changes. 2. Personnel Files A personnel file should be established for each current employee of the City. Each personnel file should include, as a minimum, the following documents: A. employment application or approved notice of employment B. authorized current salary rate C. current W -4 D. signed authorizations for additional payroll withholdings 3. Payroll To improve control over payroll disbursements we recommend that all time sheets be approved by department heads and that this approval be evidenced by the department head's initials or signature on the time sheet. 4. Insurance We noticed that all insurance costs were charged to the General Fund. A portion of this cost should be allocated to the Water and Sewer Fund. Insurance and any other overhead costs should be considered when expenses are to be shared with other governmental entities. S. Investing Since the city now has a passbook savings account we suggest that its use be maximized for investing short -term excess cash to maintain the checking account balance at a minimum. The City should consider using a passbook savings account at a savings and loan association because their interest rates may produce a higher yield. 6. Cash Disbursements From.the auditor's point of view, a good system of internal control over cash disbursements includes a requirement that all of the following be initialed on each invoice presented for payment: A. indication that the goods or services have been received or performed B. indication that the mathematical accuracy of the invoice has been tested C. indication that the document is approved for payment D. Other- account to be charged, date paid and check number When each invoice has been paid, good internal control requires that each document: A. be attached to a duplicate copy of the check used in paying the amount owed B. be properly canceled to prevent its possible reuse or potential double payment. All of the above could be accomplished by the use of a rubber stamp pro- viding the appropriate indicated spaces for initials of personnel per- forming the functions. 7. Bookkeeping System At our suggestion the clerk- treasurer, after receiving approval from the council, eliminated a number of funds by closing them into the General Fund. These funds were unnecessary and their closing should result in a reduction of accounting and auditing costs. As a result of closing these funds it was necessary to completely reorganize I the accounting structure of the General and other City funds. We have assisted and advised the clerk - treasurer in revising the chart of accounts , and have assisted in making necessary changes in other accounting records. The City has been recording its activities under the new method since January 1, 1977. 1 We wish to express our thanks for the courtesy and cooperation given us during the audit. We have enjoyed serving you and would be pleased to discuss these recommendations with you and assist with any changes ,you may wish to make.
