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.
