STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES <br />The Statement of Activities tracks the City's yearly revenues and expenses, as well as any other <br />transactions that increase or reduce total net position. These amounts represent the full cost of providing <br />services. The Statement of Activities provides a more comprehensive measure than just the amount of <br />cash that changed hands, as reflected in the fund -based financial statements. This statement includes the <br />cost of supplies used, depreciation of long-lived capital assets, and other accrual -based expenses. <br />The following table presents the change in the net position of the City for the years ended December 31, <br />2023 and 2022: <br />2023 <br />2022 <br />Program <br />Expenses <br />Revenues <br />Net Change <br />Net Change <br />Net (expense) revenue <br />Governmental activities <br />General government <br />$ 1,812,740 <br />$ 519,367 <br />$ (1,293,373) <br />$ (1,373,425) <br />Public safety <br />4,877,859 <br />1,049,773 <br />(3,828,086) <br />(3,956,431) <br />Streets and highways <br />3,031,820 <br />844,269 <br />(2,187,551) <br />(2,134,422) <br />Sanitation <br />36,470 <br />32,461 <br />(4,009) <br />(46,130) <br />Culture and recreation <br />2,620,963 <br />614,941 <br />(2,006,022) <br />(1,349,478) <br />Economic development <br />3,473,791 <br />313,075 <br />(3,160,716) <br />(2,155,892) <br />Interest and fiscal charges <br />143,240 <br />— <br />(143,240) <br />(157,280) <br />Business -type activities <br />Water <br />1,407,430 <br />1,459,121 <br />51,691 <br />189,484 <br />Sewer <br />1,808,117 <br />2,092,110 <br />283,993 <br />74,658 <br />Storm water <br />372,694 <br />437,558 <br />64,864 <br />64,935 <br />Street light <br />113,899 <br />107,351 <br />(6,548) <br />(10,783) <br />Total <br />$ 19,699,023 $ 7,470,026 (12,228,997) (10,854,764) <br />General revenues <br />Taxes 9,306,827 8,932,379 <br />General grants and contributions 1,104,742 852,212 <br />Other general revenues 10,090 — <br />Investment earnings (charges) 1,022,250 (1,181,003) <br />Total general revenues 11,443,909 8,603,588 <br />Change in net position <br />Net position — beginning <br />Net position — ending <br />(785,088) (2,251,176) <br />60,747,752 62,998,928 <br />$ 59,962,664 $ 60,747,752 <br />One of the goals of this statement is to provide a side -by -side comparison to illustrate the difference in the <br />way the City's governmental and business -type operations are financed. The table clearly illustrates the <br />dependence of the City's governmental operations on general revenues, such as taxes and unrestricted <br />grants. It also shows that the City's business -type activities are largely generating sufficient program <br />revenues (service charges and program -specific grants) to cover expenses. This is critical given the <br />pressures on the general revenue sources. As previously discussed in this report, changes in the <br />investment market contributed to the increase in current year investment earnings. <br />REM <br />
