<br /> The City’s net position increased by $1,396,389 in 2015. The key element for the increase was
<br />revenues exceeded expenditures. In addition, the City adopted new accounting guidance, GASB
<br />Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions – an Amendment of GASB
<br />Statement No. 27 for the year ended December 31, 2015. Essentially, the standard required the
<br />unfunded portion of defined benefit pension plans to be reported by all participating employers.
<br />Recording the net pension liability and the pension related deferred outflows and inflows of
<br />resources do not change the City’s future funding requirements or obligations under the plans,
<br />which are determined by Minnesota statutes.
