Our mission is to be a progressive and welcoming Village that is walkable, sustainable and safe 3301 Silver Lake Road, St. Anthony, MN 55418 612‐782‐3301 | www.savmn.com June 30, 2023 To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council, and Citizens of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota: State law requires that all general‐purpose local governments publish, within six months of the close of each fiscal year, a complete set of audited financial statements. This report is published to fulfill that requirement for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal controls that have been established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal controls should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. Redpath and Company, Ltd., Certified Public Accountants, have issued an unmodified opinion on the City of St. Anthony’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2022. The independent auditor’s report is located at the front of the financial section of this report. Management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor’s report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and therefore should be read in conjunction.
