Government -wide Financial Analysis <br />As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a City's financial <br />position. In the case of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota, assets exceeded liabilities by <br />$23,665,941 at the close of the most recent fiscal year. <br />As part of the City's implementation of GASB 54, the Water Filtration Fund was reclassified <br />from a Governmental Fund to an Enterprise Fund. This classification transferred $5,183,068 in <br />net assets from Governmental Funds net assets to Business type. This in tum reduced the <br />unrestricted portion of net assets available in Governmental Funds. Furthermore, TIF revenue <br />bonds were previously treated as Invested in Capital Assets net of related debt in prior years. <br />The City's TIF revenue bonds proceeds were used for infrastructure projects for business type <br />activities funds and for economic development expenses. Since these expenditures are not part <br />of Governmental Fund net assets a reclassification of Invested in capital assets net of related debt <br />has been reflected for the financial statements. The resulting unrestricted net assets of <br />($6,358,682) are substantially the result of these reclassifications. The City continues to receive <br />significant tax increment revenues to support the retirement of TIF related debt. Therefore, the <br />unrestricted net assets will increase with the retirement of related debt. Again, the City's overall <br />increase in the net assets for 2011 was $889,505. <br />City of St. Anthony, Minnesota's Net Assets <br />(A) Restated for reclassification of the Water Filtration and Purification Fund from governmental <br />activities to business -type activities during 2011. <br />The City's net assets increased by $889,505 during the current fiscal year. The key element for <br />the increase was a decrease in expenses relating to general government and realizing an increase <br />in charges for services. <br />16 <br />Governmental Activities <br />Business -Type <br />Activities <br />Totals <br />2011 <br />2010 (A) <br />2011 <br />2010'A' <br />2011 <br />2010 <br />Current and other assets <br />$11,327,971 <br />$14,745,729 <br />$6,385,479 <br />51,201,174 <br />$17,713,450 <br />$15,946,903 <br />Capital assets <br />38,491,466 <br />37,751,834 <br />6,407,233 <br />6,740,905 <br />44,898,699 <br />44,492,739 <br />Total assets <br />$49,819,437 <br />$52,497,563 <br />$12,792,712 <br />57,942,079 <br />562,612,149 <br />$60,439,642 <br />Long term liabilities outstanding <br />523,243,190 <br />$30,657,410 <br />$1,667,389 <br />$1,767,701 <br />524,910,579 <br />532,625,111 <br />Other liabilities <br />13,320,188 <br />4,474,550 <br />715,441 <br />522,479 <br />14,035,629 <br />4,997,029 <br />Total liabilities <br />$36,563,378 <br />535,331960 <br />52382,830 <br />52,290180 <br />538,946,208 <br />537,622,140 <br />Net assets: <br />Invested in capital assets net of related debt <br />$15,334,754 <br />$14,098,233 <br />$4,767,233 <br />54,915,905 <br />$20,101,987 <br />$19,014,138 <br />Restricted <br />4,279,987 <br />4,407,191 <br />- <br />120,000 <br />4,279,987 <br />4,527,191 <br />Unrestricted <br />(6,358,682) <br />(6,522,889) <br />5,642,649 <br />5,799,062 <br />(716,033) <br />(723,827) <br />Total net assets <br />513,256,059 <br />$11,982,535 <br />$10,409,882 <br />$10,834,967 <br />523,665,941 <br />%22,817,502 <br />(A) Restated for reclassification of the Water Filtration and Purification Fund from governmental <br />activities to business -type activities during 2011. <br />The City's net assets increased by $889,505 during the current fiscal year.
