Our mission is to be a progressive and livable community, a walkable village, which is sustainable, safe and secure.
June 6, 2018
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, 2017.
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, 2017 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.
Profile of the City
The City of St. Anthony, incorporated in 1945, is located near Northeast Minneapolis and is a
first ring northern suburb of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area. The City is a
completely developed community and is bordered on all sides by the communities of
Minneapolis, Columbia Heights, New Brighton and Roseville. Approximately two-thirds of the
City is located in northeastern Hennepin County and one-third is located in the northwest corner
of Ramsey County. The City encompasses a land area of 2.35 square miles and serves a
population of 9,234.
The City is located 10 minutes north of downtown Minneapolis and 15 minutes northwest of
downtown St. Paul. City residents and businesses have easy access to all parts of the
Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area by the use of Interstate 35W, Interstate 694 and Highway
280.
3
The City is served by Independent School District (ISD) #282 (St. Anthony), which has a
2017/2018 enrollment of approximately 1,870, operates one elementary school, a middle school
and senior high in the City. In addition, a private school, St. Charles Borromeo, offers K-8 grade
education with enrollment of approximately 300 students.
The City operates as a statutory Council-Manager form of government. Policy-making and
legislative authority are vested in the City Council consisting of one elected mayor and four
council members. The City Council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances,
adopting the budget, appointing committees, and hiring the City Manager. The City Manager is
responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, overseeing the day-
to-day operations of the City, and appointing the heads of the various departments. The Council
is elected on a non-partisan basis. Council members serve four-year staggered terms, with two
council members elected every two years. The Mayor is elected to serve a four-year term.
The City of St. Anthony provides a full range of services including administrative services;
police protection; fire suppression and prevention; construction of capital improvements;
reconstruction and maintenance of city streets and other infrastructure; distribution of water;
sanitary sewer collection; storm water drainage; parks and recreational activities; forestry
maintenance; and recycling.
The St. Anthony Firefighters’ Relief Association is a separate legal entity, and accordingly is
excluded from this report. The St. Anthony Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA), an
entity legally separate from the City, is governed by a board which includes the City Council. Its
sole purpose is to promote economic development within the City of St. Anthony. The HRA is a
component unit of the City and its financial transactions have been included in these financial
statements as a blended component unit. Additional information on both of these legally
separate entities can be found in Note 1(A) & 7(B) in the notes to the financial statements.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of St. Anthony’s financial planning and
control. All departments of the City of St. Anthony submit requests for appropriations to the
City Manager in June of each year. The City Manager uses these requests as the starting point
for developing the recommended budget. The City Manager then presents the recommended
budget to the City Council for their review prior to the certification of the proposed levy to the
County Auditors by September 15th. The City Council is required to hold public hearings on the
proposed budget and to adopt a final budget by December 31, the close of the City of St.
Anthony’s fiscal year.
The appropriated budget is prepared for the General Fund by function (e.g., public safety), and
department (e.g., police), and object code (e.g., salaries). Transfers of appropriations between
departments require the approval of the City Council. Budget-to-actual comparisons are
provided on Statement 10 as required supplementary information to the basic financial
statements for the governmental funds.2

Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood when it is
considered from the broader perspective of the specific environment within which the City of St.
Anthony operates.
Local economy: The Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area has continued to experience a
relatively stable economy. The market place for local products and services remains strong. St.
Anthony is a fully developed City. However, continued long-term growth is anticipated as St.
Anthony experiences redevelopment activity in commercial and industrial areas.
Long-term financial planning: The City maintains six capital funds for the replacement of
equipment and various infrastructure assets. Each fund is managed by a comprehensive 15 year
capital planning document. These documents include the City’s current buildings, park
improvements, operating equipment and fleet, along with future street, water, sanitary sewer and
stormwater improvements. These plans estimate the replacement dates and cost for current and
prospective equipment. Additionally the plans include projected future street, water, sanitary
sewer and stormwater reconstruction costs. The plans also identify the funding sources for these
capital expenditures. These sources include Capital and Building Improvement levies, Enterprise
funds operating income transfers, parkland dedication fees, stormwater charges, water and sewer
connection fees, grants and donations, State aids, cost sharing agreements, bond proceeds and
assessments.
The City combines the use of goal setting and a comprehensive budget process to identify and
prioritize City improvement projects. The 15-year capital plans are updated annually by staff
and are approved by the City Council.
Cash management policies and practices: The City’s foremost investment objective is to
preserve capital. Secondary considerations are liquidity and lastly yield. Accordingly, deposits
are either insured by federal depository insurance or collateralized. All temporary cash surpluses
during the year are invested in various securities defined by Minnesota Statutes. The City’s
policy is to invest all available monies at competitive interest rates in accordance with the City’s
over-all fiscal plan and coordinate them with operating needs and programs projected over the
ensuing 12 months.
Risk Management: The City uses a proactive approach to limit its liability risk and insurance
costs. To assist employees who are injured while on duty, Managed Care Program is used to
reduce medical expenses and other costs relating to workplace injuries. The program assists
employees with a treatment plan which reduces lost workdays, replacement workers, etc.
In addition, a safety committee consisting of employees from every department meets monthly
throughout the year to discuss safety related items, review accident reports and provide
recommendations to reduce the City’s exposure to liability.
The City’s general liability insurance is with the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust. In
order to reduce the cost of insurance, a $10,000 per occurrence/$50,000 aggregate deductible is
maintained and funded through insurance dividends paid by the League of Minnesota Cities.
5
SHARED SERVICES
Grants: Each year, the City actively participates in Federal, State and County administered
grants. In 2017 the Police, Fire, Public Works and Administration received a variety of public
safety, operating, equipment and infrastructure construction grants. A list of the grants includes:
A. Minnesota Firefighter Disability Grant.
B. State of Minnesota – Vest Grant.
C. Ramsey County – Safe and Sober Grant.
D. Minnesota Board of Firefighter Training & Education Grant.
E. Hennepin County Recycling Grant.
F. Ramsey County Recycling Grant.
G. US Department of Justice, Police Body Camera grant
H. Estate of John D. MacQueen (Police Department)
I. Metropolitan Council Inflow and Infiltration Grant
Partnerships: The City partners with local businesses, civic organizations, School District 282,
Community Services and the Chamber of Commerce to provide a variety of community safety
and education programs. The City also has formed partnerships with colleagues in other
jurisdictions. These relationships include providing financial and human resource services to the
Middle Mississippi Water Management Organization, a fuel purchasing arrangement with the
City of New Brighton, utility billing services to the City of Birchwood Village and police
services to the City of Lauderdale. Lastly the City partners with neighboring communities on
infrastructure projects when opportunity arises. A recent example would be the Highway Safety
Improvement Program which involved three cities and two counties.
Acknowledgements:
Finally, we would like to express our gratitude to the Mayor and the City Council. Their
unfailing support for maintaining the highest standard of professionalism in the management of
the City of St. Anthony’s finances results in a fiscally sustainable City government.
Respectfully submitted,

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of St. Anthony, Minnesota
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City of St. Anthony, Minnesota, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017, and the related
notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of St. Anthony,
Minnesota’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements
in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America;
this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the
preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement,
whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government
Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards
require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s
judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial
statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the
financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances,
but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal
control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
11
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of St. Anthony,
Minnesota, as of December 31, 2017, and the respective changes in financial position, and,
where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Report on Summarized Comparative Information
We have previously audited the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s 2016 financial statements, and
we expressed an unmodified audit opinion on the respective financial statements of the
governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate
remaining fund information in our report dated June 1, 2017. In our opinion, the summarized
comparative information presented herein as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016 is
consistent, in all material respects, with the audited financial statements from which it has been
derived.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
Management’s Discussion and Analysis, the Budgetary Comparison information, the Schedule
of Funding Progress – Other Post Employment Benefits Plan, the Schedules of Proportionate
Share of Net Pension Liability, the Schedules of Pension Contributions, and the Schedule of
Changes in the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, on pages 15 – 24 and 90 – 104, be
presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of
the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board,
who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial
statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied
certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of
inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the
information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial
statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.
We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited
procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any
assurance.
12
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s basic financial statements. The
introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and
schedules, supplementary financial information, and statistical section are presented for purposes
of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules and the
supplementary financial information are the responsibility of management and were derived
from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic
financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing
and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to
prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other
additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial
statements and schedules and the supplementary financial information are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an
opinion or provide any assurance on them.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated June 6,
2018, on our consideration of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s internal control over
financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to
describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and
the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota’s internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is
an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in
considering the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s internal control over financial reporting and
compliance.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota, we offer readers of the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial
activities of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017.
We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional
information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found in the
Introductory Section of this report.
Financial Highlights
The assets of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota exceeded its liabilities at the close of the
most recent fiscal year by $37,406,614 (net position).
The City’s total net position increased by $2,004,333 from the prior year’s stated net
position.
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City of St. Anthony’s governmental funds
reported combined ending fund balances of $14,659,278, a decrease of $6,184,833 in
comparison with the prior year stated fund balances.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance for the General Fund was
$2,280,463 or 33% of total General Fund Budget expenditures.
The City of St. Anthony’s total bonded debt decreased by $630,000 (1.92%) during the
current fiscal year. The key factors in this decrease were: 1) principal retirement of
$5,940,000; 2) refunding of the 2009A bonds with issuance of $1,355,000 of Series 2017A
G.O. Refunding Bonds; 3) the issuance of $520,000 in 2017A G.O. Equipment Certificates;

$835,000 in 2017A G.O. Tax Abatement Refunding Bonds.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of St. Anthony,
Minnesota’s basic financial statements. The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s basic financial
statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund
financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other
supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are
designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s
finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s
assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time,
increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial
position of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed
during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the
underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
15
Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in
cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues
(governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant
portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental
activities of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota include general government, public safety,
public works, parks and recreation, services to other cities and HRA activities. The business-
type activities of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota include the operation of water and sewer
utilities and the municipal off-sale liquor stores.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota
itself (known as the primary government), but also a legally separate Housing and
Redevelopment Authority (HRA) for which the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota is financially
accountable. The HRA functions for all practical purposes as a department of the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota, and therefore has been included as an integral part of the primary
government.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on Statements 1 and 2 of this report.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that are used to maintain
control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of
St. Anthony, Minnesota, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure
and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City
of St. Anthony, Minnesota can be divided into two categories: governmental funds and
proprietary funds.
Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions
reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However,
unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus
on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable
resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a
City’s near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial
statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar
information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City’s near-term
financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance provide a reconciliation to
facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota maintains 19 individual governmental funds. Information is
presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance for the General, Street
Improvement Debt Service, HRA TIF Debt Service, HRA TIF Improvements, Street
Improvement Projects and Public Utilities Infrastructure, all of which are considered to be major
funds. Data from the other 13 governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated
16
presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided
in the form of combining and sub-combining statements and schedules elsewhere in this report.
The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund.
A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the General Fund to demonstrate
compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on Statements 3 through 5 of this
report.
Proprietary funds. The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota maintains two different types of
proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-
type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota
uses enterprise funds to account for its water and sewer, storm water, and municipal liquor
operations. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate
costs internally among the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota’s various functions. The City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota uses an internal service fund to account for its compensated absences and
pension benefits. Because these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than
business-type functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the
government-wide financial statements.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial
statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate
information for the water and sewer, storm water, and municipal liquor operations, which are
considered to be major funds of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on Statements 6 through 8 of this
report.
Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to
a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.
The notes to the financial statements can be found following Statement 9 of this report.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds
are presented immediately following the required supplementary information on budgetary
comparisons, OPEB and pension information. Combining and individual fund statements and
schedules can be found on Statements 18 through 25 of this report.
Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a City’s financial
position. In the case of the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota, assets exceeded liabilities by
$37,406,614 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

increase in fund balance. The increase in expenditures relates to retirement of 2009A bonds in
the amount of $1,740,000. The increase in other financing sources is due to the issuance of
$1,355,000 in Series 2017A G.O. Refunding Bonds, including a premium of $78,253.

increment collections of $65,599.

construction costs related to the expansion of the water treatment facility.

of $105,355 for the HSIP tax abatement bond and the transfer of HSIP grant proceeds offsetting
the initial bond principal and interest payment $23,910.

RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES,Statement 5
EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
For The Year Ended December 31, 2017
With Comparative Amounts For The Year Ended December 31, 2016
2017 2016
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the
statement of activities (statement 2) are different because:
Net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds (statement 4)($6,184,833) $13,293,951
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the
statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their
estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the
amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period.7,813,363 1,986,872
The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets
(i.e. sales, trade-ins and donations) is to decrease net position, as follows:(65,479) (19,598)
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial
resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.61,298 (204,142)
The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, leases) provides current financial
resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of
long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental
funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. This
amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt
and related items.152,550 (404,358)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of
current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in
governmental funds.107,612 26,023
Transfer out of governmental capital assets contributed to Enterprise Funds.(8,000,094) (1,174,047)
Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the cost of severance
expense and pension expense to individual funds. This amount is the net income
attributable to governmental activities.(398,285) (1,675,199)
Governmental funds report pension contributions as expenditures, however,
pension expense is reported in the statement of activities. This is the amount
by which the St. Anthony Fire Department Relief Association pension expense
exceeded pension contributions:
Pension contributions $57,206
Pension expense (37,287) 19,919 (1,272)
Change in net position of governmental activities (statement 2)($6,493,949) $11,828,230

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of St. Anthony, Minnesota (the City) operates pursuant to applicable Minnesota laws and statutes
under the council-manager plan (Statutory Plan B) as defined by State statutes. The government of the City is
directed by a Council composed of an elected mayor and four other elected members. The Council exercises
legislative authority and determines matters of policy. The Council appoints the City Manager who is
responsible for the administration of all affairs relating to the City.
The financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles as applied to governmental units by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The
following is a summary of the significant accounting policies.
A. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY
As required by generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the reporting
entity include those of the City (the primary government) and its component units. The component
unit discussed below is included in the City's reporting entity because of the significance of their
operational or financial relationships with the City.
COMPONENT UNITS
In conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the component
unit have been included in the financial reporting entity as a blended component unit.
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) is an entity legally separate from the City.
However, for financial reporting purposes, the HRA is reported as if it were part of the City's
operations because the members of the City Council serve as HRA board members and its activity is
confined to the City. The City established the HRA under State statutes to assist and support housing
and redevelopment projects undertaken within the City which are under the statutory authority of the
HRA. The City reviews and approves tax levies and other financial matters related to the HRA. The
City provides major financing of HRA activities and debt issued in connection with HRA projects are
general obligations of the City. The activity of the HRA is reported in the HRA TIF Debt Service
Fund, the HRA TIF Improvement Fund and the HRA Special Revenue Fund. Separate financial
statements are not prepared for the HRA.
B. GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The government-wide financial statements (i.e. the statement of net position and the statement of
activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its
component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these
statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental
revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent, on
fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or
business-type activity is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly
identifiable with a specific function or business-type activity. Program revenues include: 1) charges
to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods, services or privileges
provided by a given function or business-type activity; and 2) grants and contributions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or business-type
activity. Taxes and other items not included among program revenues are reported instead as general
revenues.
39
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major
individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns
in the fund financial statements.
C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT
PRESENTATION
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement
focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues
are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the
timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are
levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements
imposed by the provider have been met. The City’s only fiduciary fund is an agency fund. Agency
funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of
operations.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources
measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as
they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are
collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period.
For this purpose, the City considers all revenues, except property taxes and reimbursement grants, to
be available if they are collected within 90 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Property taxes
are considered available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current year.
Reimbursement grants are considered available if they are collected within one year of the end of the
current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual
accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated
absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, special assessments, intergovernmental revenues, charges for services and interest
associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have
been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of special assessments
receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of
the current period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when
cash is received by the City.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the government’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial
resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Street Improvement Debt Service Fund was established to account for debt associated with a
systematic plan to reconstruct substandard residential streets and alleys. Annual debt service
payments are funded through special assessments and tax levies.
The HRA TIF Debt Service Fund was established to account for debt associated with Tax
Increment Financing Districts of the City.
The HRA TIF Improvement Fund was established to account for the construction and
redevelopment costs within the City.
40
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
The Street Improvement Project Fund was established to account for the construction costs
associated with a systematic plan to reconstruct substandard residential streets and alleys.
The Public Utilities Infrastructure Fund was established to account for costs associated with the
City’s utilities infrastructure.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Liquor Fund is an enterprise fund that is used to account for operations of the City’s off-sale
liquor operation.
The Water/Sewer/Water Plant Fund accounts for the water and sewer service charges which are
used to finance the water and sewer system operating expenses, and the operation and
maintenance of the City’s water purification plant.
The Stormwater Utility Fund accounts for stormwater service charges which are used to finance
the construction and operation of the stormwater and flood protection projects.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Internal Service Fund - the Employee Benefit Fund accounts for the liability the City has for
employee vacation and severance payments, and is also used to provide pension benefits to other
departments of the City on a cost reimbursement basis.
Agency Fund - the Developers Deposit Fund accounts for costs incurred by the City for the
review of various land use permits requested by developers and subsequent owners. The City
requires the developer or owner to pay the costs associated with the permitting process. The City
collects an initial deposit and bills any overages as needed.
As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide
financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are transactions that would be treated as revenues,
expenditures or expenses if they involved external organizations, such as buying goods and services or
payments in lieu of taxes, are similarly treated when they involve other funds of the City. Elimination
of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions
concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods,
services or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and
contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general
revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating
revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in
connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues
of the liquor, water and sewer enterprise funds are charges to customers for sales and services.
Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses,
and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported
as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for an allowable use, it is the City’s
policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

D. BUDGETS
Budgets are legally adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.
Annual appropriated budgets are legally adopted for the General and all Special Revenue Funds.
Budgeted expenditure appropriations lapse at year end.
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the
expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the appropriation, is not
employed by the City because it is at present not considered necessary to assure effective budgetary
control or to facilitate effective cash management.
E. LEGAL COMPLIANCE - BUDGETS
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial
statements:
1) The City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the upcoming year
in August. The operating budget includes proposed revenues and expenditures and the operating
levy associated with operations.
2) The City Council and staff meet to review the proposed budget and Council recommends any
appropriate changes.
3) Public hearings are conducted in April and December to obtain taxpayer comments and
recommendations to the operating budget.
4) The budget and tax levy is legally enacted through the passage of a resolution on a department
basis for the General Fund and on a fund basis for Special Revenue and Enterprise Funds that can
be expended by each department based upon detailed budget estimates.
5) The City Manager and Finance Director are authorized to transfer appropriations within any
department budget. Interdepartmental or interfund appropriations and deletions are authorized by
the City Council with fund contingency reserves or additional revenues.
6) Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the
General Fund, Special Revenue, Capital Equipment and Enterprise Funds. The General Fund,
Special Revenue Funds and Enterprise Funds all have Council adopted annual budgets.
7) Legal debt obligation indentures determine the appropriation level of debt service tax levies for
the Debt Service Funds. Supplementary budgets are adopted for the Proprietary Funds to
determine and calculate user charges. These debt service and budget amounts represent general
obligation bond indenture provisions and net income for operation and capital maintenance and
are not reflected in the financial statements.
8) A capital improvement program is reviewed annually by the City Council for the Capital Project
Funds. However, appropriations for major projects are not adopted until the actual bid award of
the improvement. The appropriations are not reflected in the financial statements.
9) The legal level of budgetary control is at the department level for the General Fund and the fund
level for the Special Revenue Funds. Monitoring of budgets is maintained at the expenditure
category level (i.e., personal services; materials and supplies; contractual services; and capital
outlay) within each program. All amounts over budget have been approved by the City Council
through the disbursement process.
10) The City Council may authorize transfer of budgeted amounts between City funds. The City
Council made supplemental budgetary appropriations throughout the year. Individual
amendments were not material in relation to the original appropriations which were adjusted.

The over expenditures were funded by available fund balance.
F. CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash and investment balances from all funds are pooled and invested to the extent available in
authorized investments. Investment income is allocated to individual funds on the basis of the fund's
equity in the cash and investment pool.
The City provides temporary advances to funds that have insufficient cash balances by means of an
advance from another fund shown as interfund receivables in the advancing fund, and an interfund
payable in the fund with the deficit, until adequate resources are received. These interfund balances
are eliminated on the government-wide financial statements.
Investments are stated at fair value except for investments in external investment pools that meet the
GASB 79 requirement, which are stated at amortized cost. Investment income is accrued at the
balance sheet date.
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all highly liquid investments with a
maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. All of the cash and
investments allocated to the Proprietary Funds have original maturities of 90 days or less. Therefore,
the entire balance in the Proprietary Funds is considered cash equivalents.
G. RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods
provided or services rendered. Short-term interfund loans are classified as “interfund
receivables/payables.” All short-term interfund receivables and payables at December 31, 2017 are
planned to be eliminated in 2017. Long-term interfund loans are classified as “interfund loan
43
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA

receivable/payable.” Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and
business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal
balances.”
Uncollectible property taxes and special assessments are not material and have not been reported (see
Note 1 H and I). Because utility bills are considered liens on property, no estimated uncollectible
amounts are established. Uncollectible amounts are not material for other receivables and have not
been reported.
H. PROPERTY TAX REVENUE RECOGNITION
The City Council annually adopts a tax levy and certifies it to the County in December
(levy/assessment date) of each year for collection in the following year. The County is responsible for
billing and collecting all property taxes for itself, the City, the local School District and other taxing
authorities. Such taxes become a lien on January 1 and are recorded as receivables by the City at that
date. Real property taxes are payable (by property owners) on May 15 and October 15 of each
calendar year. Personal property taxes are payable by taxpayers on February 28 and June 30 of each
year. These taxes are collected by the County and remitted to the City on or before July 7 and
December 2 of the same year. Delinquent collections for November and December are received the
following January. The City has no ability to enforce payment of property taxes by property owners.
The County possesses this authority.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes property tax revenue in the period for which the taxes were levied. Uncollectible
property taxes are not material and have not been reported.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes property tax revenue when it becomes both measurable and available to finance
expenditures of the current period. In practice, current and delinquent taxes and State credits received
by the City in July, December and January are recognized as revenue for the current year. Taxes
collected by the County by December 31 (remitted to the City the following January) and taxes and
credits not received at year end are classified as delinquent and due from County taxes receivable. The
portion of delinquent taxes not collected by the City in January is fully offset by deferred inflow of
resources because they are not available to finance current expenditures.
I. SPECIAL ASSESSMENT REVENUE RECOGNITION
Special assessments are levied against benefited properties for the cost or a portion of the cost of
special assessment improvement projects in accordance with State Statutes. These assessments are
collectible by the City over a term of years usually consistent with the term of the related bond issue.
Collection of annual installments (including interest) is handled by the County Auditor in the same
manner as property taxes. Property owners are allowed to (and often do) prepay future installments
without interest or prepayment penalties.
Once a special assessment roll is adopted, the amount attributed to each parcel is a lien upon that
property until full payment is made or the amount is determined to be excessive by the City Council or
court action. If special assessments are allowed to go delinquent, the property is subject to tax forfeit
sale. Proceeds of sales from tax forfeit properties are allocated first to the County’s costs of
administering all tax forfeit properties. Pursuant to State Statutes, a property shall be subject to a tax

CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
forfeit sale after three years unless it is homesteaded, agricultural or seasonal recreational land in
which event the property is subject to such sale after five years.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes special assessment revenue in the period that the assessment roll was adopted by
the City Council. Uncollectible special assessments are not material and have not been reported.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Revenue from special assessments is recognized by the City when it becomes measurable and
available to finance expenditures of the current fiscal period. In practice, current and delinquent
special assessments received by the City are recognized as revenue for the current year. Special
assessments that are collected by the County by December 31 (remitted to the City the following
January) are also recognized as revenue for the current year. All remaining delinquent, deferred and
special deferred assessments receivable in governmental funds are completely offset by deferred
inflow of resources.
J. INVENTORIES
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method. The cost of such inventories
are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.
PROPRIETARY FUNDS
Inventories of the Proprietary Funds are stated at weighted average cost, which approximates market,
using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
K. PREPAID ITEMS
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as
prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. Prepaid items are reported
using the consumption method and recorded as expenditures/expenses at the time of consumption.
L. CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges,
sidewalks, and similar items) and intangible assets such as easements and computer software, are
reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide
financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost of
more than $5,000 (amount not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Such assets
are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital
assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation.
In the case of the initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e. those reported by
governmental activities), the City chose to capitalize retroactively to 1980. These assets are reported
at estimated historical cost. The City estimated historical cost for the initial reporting of these assets
through analysis of original bonding documents. As the City constructs or acquires additional
infrastructure assets each period, they will be capitalized and reported at historical cost.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially
extend assets lives are not capitalized.
45
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest
incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of
the capitalized value of the assets constructed. For the year ended December 31, 2017, no interest was
capitalized in connection with construction in progress.
The City implemented GASB Statement No. 51, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Intangible
Assets which required the City to capitalize and amortize intangible assets. Pursuant to GASB
Statement 51, in the case of initial capitalization of intangible assets, the City chose to include such
items regardless of their acquisition date, except for permanent easements and internally generated
software. The City has already accounted for computer software and temporary easements at historical
cost and therefore retroactive reporting was not necessary.
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, as well as the component units, are
depreciated/amortized using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Assets
Buildings and structures 5 – 40 years
Furniture, fixtures and equipment (including software) 3 – 20 years
Distribution and collection systems 20 – 50 years
Streets 20 – 50 years
Storm sewers 25 years
Stormwater treatment systems 25 – 40 years
M. COMPENSATED ABSENCES
It is the City's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused personal leave benefits. All
personal leave pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial
statements. A liability for these amounts associated with governmental fund employees is reported in
the Internal Service Employee Benefit Fund. In accordance with the provisions of Statement of
Government Accounting Standards No. 16, Accounting for Compensated Absences, no liability is
recorded for nonvesting accumulating rights to receive personal leave benefits. However, a liability is
recognized for that portion of accumulating personal leave benefits that is vested as severance pay.
N. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary funds in the fund financial statements,
long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable
governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary funds statement of net position. Bond
premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable are
reported net of the applicable bond premium discount.
In the governmental fund financial statements, governmental funds recognize bond premiums and
discounts during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing
sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts
on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
O. FUND BALANCE CLASSIFICATIONS
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund balance in classifications that disclose
constraints for which amounts in those funds can be spent. These classifications are as follows:
Nonspendable - consists of amounts that are not in spendable form, such as prepaid items.
Restricted - consists of amounts related to externally imposed constraints established by creditors,
grantors or contributors; or constraints imposed by state statutory provisions.
Committed - consists of internally imposed constraints. These constraints are established by
resolution of the City Council.
Assigned - consists of internally imposed constraints. These constraints reflect the specific
purpose for which it is the City’s intended use. These constraints are established by the City
Council and/or management. Pursuant to City Council policy, the City’s Finance Director and/or
City Manager are authorized to establish assignments of fund balance.
Unassigned - is the residual classification for the general fund and also reflects negative residual
amounts in other funds.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to first use
restricted resources, and then use unrestricted resources as they are needed.
When committed, assigned or unassigned resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use
resources in the following order: 1) committed, 2) assigned and 3) unassigned.
P. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
Interfund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues, expenditures or expenses.
Transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it
that are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing
fund and as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed. Interfund loans are
reported as an interfund loan receivable or payable which offsets the movement of cash between
funds. All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers.
Q. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) requires management to make estimates that affect amounts reported in the financial
statements during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
R. RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain amounts presented in the prior year data has been reclassified in order to be consistent with the
current year’s presentation.

S. COMPARATIVE TOTALS
The basic financial statements, required supplementary information, combining and individual fund
financial statements and schedules and supplementary financial information include certain prior-year
summarized comparative information in total but not at the level of detail required for presentation in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, such information should be
read in conjunction with the City’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016, from
which the summarized information was derived.
T. DEFERRED OUTFLOWS/INFLOWS OF RESOURCES
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for
deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of
resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be
recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The District has one item that
qualifies for reporting in this category. It is the pension related deferred outflows of resources
reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the proprietary funds Statement of Net
Position.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for
deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of
resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be
recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The government has pension related
deferred inflows of resources reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the
proprietary funds Statement of Net Position. The government also has a type of item, which arises
only under a modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category.
Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental fund balance sheet.
The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from the following sources: property taxes,
special assessments, and tax increment.
U. PENSION PLANS
COST SHARING MULTIPLE – EMPLOYER PLANS
Pensions. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources,
and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Public Employees Retirement
Association (PERA) and additions to/deductions from PERA’s fiduciary net position have been
determined on the same basis as they are reported by PERA except PERA’s fiscal year end is June 30.
For this purpose, plan contributions are recognized as of employer payroll paid dates and benefit
payments and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Investments are reported at fair value.
SINGLE EMPLOYER PLAN
Pensions. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability (asset), deferred outflows of resources
and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the
fiduciary net position of the St. Anthony Fire Department Relief Association (Relief) and additions
to/deductions from the Relief’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they
were reported by the Relief. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when due and payable
in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.

V. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND
BALANCE SHEET AND THE GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance – total
governmental funds and net position – governmental activities as reported in the government-wide
statement of net position. One element of that reconciliation explains that “long-term liabilities,
including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the current period and therefore are not
reported in the funds”. The details of this ($32,943,025) difference is as follows:
Bonds payable ($31,170,000)

2. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND
STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES
AND THE GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances
includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances – total governmental funds and
changes in net position of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement
of activities. One element of that reconciliation explains that “governmental funds report capital
outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is
allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.” The details of
this $7,813,363 difference is as follows:
Capital outlay $431,511
Construction/acquisition costs 9,908,037
Construction/acquisition costs not capitalized (525,865)
Depreciation expense (2,000,320)

Another element of that reconciliation states that “the net effect of various miscellaneous
transactions involving capital assets (i.e. sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to decrease net
position.” The details of this ($65,479) difference are as follows:
The statement of activities reports losses arising
from the trade-in or disposal of existing capital
assets to acquire new capital assets. Conversely,
governmental funds do not report any gain or loss
on a trade-in of capital assets. ($65,479)

changes in net position of governmental activities. ($65,479)
Another element of that reconciliation states that “revenues in the statement of activities that do
not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds”. The details of
this $61,278 difference is as follows:
Unavailable revenue - general property taxes:
At December 31, 2016 ($90,425)
At December 31, 2017 34,687

Another element of that reconciliation states that “the issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds,
leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of
principal of the long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds.
Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position.” The details of this $152,550
difference is as follows:
Debt issued or incurred:
Issuance of general obligation bonds ($3,120,000)
Issuance of refunding bonds (2,190,000)

are valued using inputs that are based on quoted prices for similar assets or inputs that are observable,
either directly or indirectly. Level 3 investments are valued using inputs that are unobservable.

Fair Value Measurement Using
The City’s external investment pool investment is with the 4M fund which is regulated by Minnesota
Statutes and the Board of Directors of the League of Minnesota Cities. The 4M fund is an unrated
pool and the fair value of the position in the pool is the same as the value of pool shares. The pool is
managed to maintain a portfolio weighted average maturity of no greater than 60 days and seeks to
maintain a constant net asset value (NAV) per share of $1. The pool measures their investments in
accordance with Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 79, at amortized cost.
The 4M Liquid Asset Fund has no redemption requirements. The 4M Plus Fund requires funds to be
deposited for a minimum of 14 calendar days. Withdrawals prior to the 14-day restriction period are
53
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

subject to a penalty equal to 7 days interest on the amount withdrawn. In regards to the 4M Fixed
Income Fund, redemption of a CD prior to the maturity may result in early withdrawal penalties.
C. INVESTMENT RISKS
Custodial credit risk – investments – For investments in securities, custodial credit risk is the risk that
in the event of failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the City will not be able to recover the value
of its investment securities that are in the possession of an outside party. Investments in investment
pools and money markets are not evidenced by securities that exist in physical or book entry form, and
therefore are not subject to custodial credit risk disclosures. The City’s investment policy does not
address custodial risk. However, investments in securities are held by the City’s broker-dealers of
which $500,000 is insured through SIPC. The broker-dealer has provided additional protection by
providing additional insurance. This insurance is subject to aggregate limits applied to all of the
broker-dealers’ accounts.
Interest rate risk – Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates of debt investments could
adversely affect the fair value of an investment. The City’s investment policy requires the City to
diversify its investment portfolio to eliminate the risk of loss resulting from over concentration of
assets in a specific maturity. The policy also states the City’s investment portfolio will remain
sufficiently liquid to enable the City to meet all operating requirements which might be reasonably
anticipated.
Credit risk – Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will be unable
to fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. State law limits investments in commercial
paper to those rated in the highest quality category by at least two nationally recognized rating
agencies; in any security of the State of Minnesota or any of its municipalities which is rated “A” or
better by a national bond rating service for general obligation and rated “AA” or better for a revenue
obligation; a general obligation of the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency to those rated “A” or better
by a national bond rating agency; mutual funds or money market funds whose investments are
restricted to securities described in MS 118A.04. The City’s investment policy does not place further
restrictions on investment options.
Concentration of credit risk – Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss that may be attributed to
the magnitude of a government’s investment in a single issuer. The City places no limit on the amount
the City may invest in any one issuer. The City does not have exposure to a single issuer that equals or
exceeds 5% of the overall portfolio and, therefore, there is no concentration of credit risk.

Note 7 DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION
A. COST SHARING MULTIPLE – EMPLOYER PLANS
PLAN DESCRIPTION
The City participates in the following cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plans
administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). PERA’s
defined benefit pension plans are established and administered in accordance with Minnesota Statutes,
Chapters 353 and 356. PERA’s defined benefit pension plans are tax qualified plans under Section
401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
1. General Employees Retirement Fund (GERF)
All full-time (with the exception of employees covered by PEPFF) and certain part-time
employees of the City are covered by the General Employees Retirement Fund (GERF). GERF
members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan members are
covered by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not. The Basic Plan was closed to new
members in 1967. All new members must participate in the Coordinated Plan.
2. Public Employees Police and Fire Fund (PEPFF)
The PEPFF, originally established for police officers and firefighters not covered by a local relief
association, now covers all police officers and firefighters hired since 1980. Effective July 1,

CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
1999, the PEPFF also covers police officers and firefighters belonging to a local relief association
that elected to merge with and transfer assets and administration to PERA.
BENEFITS PROVIDED
PERA provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Benefit provisions are established by state
statute and can only be modified by the state legislature.
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. Increases are related to the funding
ratio of the plan. Members in plans that are at least 90% funded for two consecutive years are given
2.5% increases. Members in plans that have not exceeded 90% funded, or have fallen below 80%, are
given 1% increases.
The benefit provisions stated in the following paragraphs of this section are current provisions and
apply to active plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not
receiving them yet are bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public
service.
1. GERF Benefits
Benefits are based on a member’s highest average salary for any five successive years of
allowable service, age, and years of credit at termination of service. Two methods are used to
compute benefits for PERA's Coordinated and Basic Plan members. The retiring member receives
the higher of a step-rate benefit accrual formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2).
Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2% of average salary for
each of the first ten years of service and 2.7% for each remaining year. The annuity accrual rate
for a Coordinated Plan member is 1.2% of average salary for each of the first ten years and 1.7%
for each remaining year. Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7% of average salary for
Basic Plan members and 1.7% for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service. For
members hired prior to July 1, 1989, a full annuity is available when age plus years of service
equal 90 and normal retirement age is 65. For members hired on or after July 1, 1989, normal
retirement age is the age for unreduced Social Security benefits capped at 66.
2. PEPFF Benefits
Benefits for the PEPFF members first hired after June 30, 2010, but before July 1, 2014, vest on a
prorated basis from 50% after five years up to 100% after ten years of credited service. Benefits
for PEPFF members first hired after June 30, 2014, vest on a prorated basis from 50% after ten
years up to 100% after twenty years of credited service. The annuity accrual rate is 3% of average
salary for each year of service. For PEPFF members who were first hired prior to July 1, 1989, a
full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal at least 90.
CONTRIBUTIONS
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions. Contribution
rates can only be modified by the state legislature.
1. GERF Contributions
Basic Plan members and Coordinated Plan members were required to contribute 9.1% and 6.50%,
respectively, of their annual covered salary in calendar year 2017. The City was required to
contribute 11.78% of pay for Basic Plan members and 7.50% for Coordinated Plan members in
calendar year 2017. The City’s contributions to the GERF for the year ended December 31, 2017,

were $167,798. The City’s contributions were equal to the required contributions as set by state
statute.
2. PEPFF Contributions
Plan members were required to contribute 10.8% of their annual covered salary in calendar year
2017. The City was required to contribute 16.20% of pay for PEPFF members in calendar year
2017. The City’s contributions to the PEPFF for the year ended December 31, 2017, were
$424,887. The City’s contributions were equal to the required contributions as set by state statute.
PENSION COSTS
1. GERF Pension Costs
At December 31, 2017, the City reported a liability of $2,157,770 for its proportionate share of the
GERF’s net pension liability. The City’s net pension liability reflected a reduction due to the State of
Minnesota’s contribution of $6 million to the fund in 2017. The State of Minnesota is considered a
non-employer contributing entity and the state’s contribution meets the definition of a special funding
situation. The State of Minnesota’s proportionate share of the net pension liability associated with the
City totaled $27,098. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2017, and the total
pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as
of that date. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on the City’s contributions
received by PERA during the measurement period for employer payroll paid dates from July 1, 2016,
through June 30, 2017, relative to the total employer contributions received from all of PERA’s
participating employers. At June 30, 2017, the City’s proportion was .0338% which was a decrease of
.0015% from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2016.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the City recognized pension expense of $270,680 for its
proportionate share of the GERF’s pension expense. In addition, the City recognized an additional
$783 as pension expense (and grant revenue) for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota’s
contribution of $6 million to the GERF.
At December 31, 2017, the City reported its proportionate share of the GERF’s deferred outflows of
resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

2. PEPFF Pension Costs
At December 31, 2017, the City reported a liability of $3,577,815 for its proportionate share of the
PEPFF’s net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2017, and the
total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial
valuation as of that date. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on the City’s
contributions received by PERA during the measurement period for employer payroll paid dates from
July 1, 2016, through June 30, 2017, relative to the total employer contributions received from all of
PERA’s participating employers. At June 30, 2017, the City’s proportion was .2650% which was a
decrease of .0270% from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2016. The City also recognized
$23,850 for the year ended December 31, 2017, as revenue (and an offsetting reduction of net pension
liability) for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota’s on-behalf contributions to the PEPFF.
Legislation passed in 2013 required the State of Minnesota to begin contributing $9 million to the
PEPFF each year, starting in fiscal year 2014.
For the year ended December 31, 2017, the City recognized pension expense of $832,991 for its
proportionate share of the PEPFF’s pension expense.

ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS
The total pension liability in the June 30, 2017 actuarial valuation was determined using the following
actuarial assumptions:
Inflation 2.50% per year
Active Member Payroll Growth 3.25% per year
Investment Rate of Return 7.50%
Salary increases were based on a service-related table. Mortality rates for active members, retirees,
survivors and disibilitants were based on RP-2014 tables for both plans for males or females, as
appropriate, with slight adjustments to fit PERA’s experience. Cost of living benefit increases for
retirees are assumed to be one percent per year for the GERF through 2044 and PEPFF through 2064
and then 2.5% thereafter.
Actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2017 valuation were based on the results of actuarial
experience studies. The most recent four-year experience study in the GERF was completed in 2015.
The most recent five-year experience study for PEPFF was completed in 2016.
The following changes in actuarial assumptions occurred in 2017:
General Employees Fund
The Combined Service Annuity (CSA) loads were changed from 0.8% for active members
and 60% for vested and non-vested deferred members. The revised CSA loads are now 0.0%
for active member liability, 15.0% for vested deferred member liability and 3.0% for non-
vested deferred member liability.
The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0% per year for all
years to 1.0% per year through 2044 and 2.5% per year thereafter.
Police and Fire Fund
The single discount rate was changed from 5.6% to 7.5%.
Assumed salary increases were changed as recommended in the June 30, 2016 experience
study. The net effect is proposed rates that average 0.34% lower than the previous rates.
Assumed rates of retirement were changed, resulting in fewer retirements.
The Combined Service Annuity (CSA) load was 30% for vested and non-vested deferred
members. The CSA has been changed to 33% for vested members and 2% for non-vested
members.
The base mortality table for healthy annuitants was changed from the RP-2000 fully
generational table to the RP-2014 fully generational table (with a base year of 2006), with
68
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
male rates adjusted by a factor of 0.96. The mortality improvement scale was changed from
Scale AA to Scale MP-2016. The base mortality table for disabled annuitants was changed
from the RP-2000 disabled mortality table to the mortality tables assumed for healthy retirees.
Assumed termination rates were decreased to 3.0% for the first three years of service. Rates
beyond the select period of three years were adjusted, resulting in more expected terminations
overall.
Assumed percentage of married female members was decreased from 65% to 60%.
Assumed age difference was changed from separate assumptions for male members (wives
assumed to be three years younger) and female members (husbands assumed to be four years
older) to the assumption that males are two years older than females.
The assumed percentage of female members electing Joint and Survivor annuities was
increased.
The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.00% for all years to
1.00% per year through 2064 and 2.50% thereafter.
The State Board of Investment, which manages the investments of PERA, prepares an analysis of the
reasonableness on a regular basis of the long-term expected rate of return using a building-block
method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future rates of return are developed for each major
asset class. These ranges are combined to produce an expected long-term rate of return by weighting
the expected future rates of return by the target asset allocation percentages. The target allocation and
best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the
following table:
Target Long-Term Expected
Asset Class Allocation Real Rate of Return
Domestic Stocks 39%5.10%
International Stocks 19%5.30%
Bonds 20%0.75%
Alternative Assets 20%5.90%
Cash 2%0.00%
Total 100%
DISCOUNT RATE
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability in 2017 was 7.50%. The projection of
cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members and
employers will be made at rates set in Minnesota Statutes. Based on these assumptions, the fiduciary
net position of the General Employees Fund and the Police and Fire Fund was projected to be
available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-
term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected-
benefit payments to determine the total pension liability. At June 30, 2016, the Police and Fire Fund
projected benefit payments to exceed the funds projected fiduciary net position after June 30, 2056 and
therefore used a single discount rate of 5.6%, which as stated above, increased to 7.5% at June 30,
2017.

B. SINGLE EMPLOYER PLAN
PLAN DESCRIPTION
All members of the St. Anthony Fire Department are covered by a defined benefit plan administered
by the Relief. The Plan is a single employer retirement plan and is established and administered in
accordance with Minnesota Statute, Chapter 69.
BENEFITS PROVIDED
The Relief provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members and benefits to
survivors upon death of eligible members. Benefits are established in accordance with the State Statute
and vest after ten years of credited service. The defined retirement benefits are based on a member’s
years of service. Benefit provisions can be amended by the Relief within the parameters provided by
State Statutes.
Twenty Year Service Pension
Each member who is at least 50 years of age; has retired from the City of St. Anthony, Minnesota; has
served at least twenty (20) years of active service with such department before retirement; and has
been a member of the Relief in good standing at least 10 years prior to such retirement; shall be
entitled to a pro-rated lump sum service pension in the amount of $3,300 for each completed full year
of service but not exceeding the maximum amount per year of service allowed by law for the
minimum average amount of available financing per firefighter as prescribed by law. Members with
10 years of service receive partial vesting at 60% of the 20 year rate and 4% added for every one year
of service beyond ten years up to 20 years.
Disability Benefits
A member who becomes permanently disabled from being an active firefighter in the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota will be eligible to collect a disability benefit in an amount equal to his/her full
years of active service multiplied by the yearly lump sum service pension rate. If a member receives a
70
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
disability benefit and subsequently returns to active duty, the total disability benefit will be deducted
from his/her service pension.
Death Benefits
Upon the death of any active member of the Relief who is in good standing at the time of their death,
the Relief shall pay to the surviving spouse or children, if any, the sum of $3,300 for each year that the
member served as an active member of the Relief. The survivor benefits include those members who
are on the regular pension roll or on the deferred pension roll.
State Supplemental Benefits
Minnesota Statute 424A.10 provides for the payment of a supplemental benefit equal to ten percent of
a regular lump sum distribution up to a maximum of $1,000. The supplemental benefit is in lieu of a
State income tax exclusion for lump sum distributions and will no longer be available if State tax law
is modified to exclude lump sum distributions from State income tax. The Relief qualifies for these
benefits.
EMPLOYEES COVERED BY BENEFIT TERMS
At December 31, 2017, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:
Retired members entitled to benefits,
but have not received them 5
Current members:
Fully vested (20 years or more) 4
Partially vested (10 years to 19 years) 6
Nonvested (less than 10 years) 20
Total 35
CONTRIBUTIONS
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 69.772 sets the minimum contribution requirement for the City and State
aid on an annual basis. These statutes are established and amended by the state legislature. The Relief
is comprised of volunteers; therefore, members have no contribution requirements. The City receives
the State aid contribution and is required by state statutes to pass this through as payment to the Relief.
The City’s contributions to the Relief for the year ended December 31, 2017, were $6,000. The City’s
contributions met the required contribution of $6,000 as set by state statute. State aid contributions for
the year ended December 31, 2017 were $51,206.
NET PENSION LIABILITY
The City’s net pension liability (asset) was measured as of December 31, 2017, and the total pension
liability used to calculate the net pension liability (asset) was determined by an actuarial valuation as
of December 31, 2016 rolled forward to December 31, 2017.
71
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
ACTUARIAL ASSUMPTIONS
The total pension liability in the December 31, 2017 actuarial valuation was determined using the
following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:
Investment rate of return 5.75%
Projected salary increases N/A
Inflation 2.75%
Cost-of-living adjustments None
Age of service retirement 50
Post retirement benefit increase None
Mortality assumptions for pre-retirement, post-retirement and disability are as follows:
Healthy pre-retirement – RP 2014 employee generational mortality projected with mortality
improvement scale MP-2016, from a base year of 2006.
Healthy post-retirement – RP 2014 annuitant generational mortality projected with mortality
improvement scale MP-2016 from a base year of 2006. Male rates adjusted by a factor of 0.96.
Disabled – RP 2014 annuitant generational mortality table projected with mortality improvement
scale MP-2016 from a base year of 2006. Male rates are adjusted by a factor of 0.96.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-
block method in which best-estimates of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of
pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These
asset class estimates are combined to produce the portfolio long-term expected rate of return by
weighting the expected future real rates of return by the current asset allocation percentage (or target
allocation, if available) and by adding expected inflation. All results are then rounded to the nearest
quarter percentage point.
The best-estimate of expected future real rates of return were developed by aggregating data from
several published capital market assumption surveys and deriving a single best-estimate based on
the average survey values. These capital market assumptions reflect both historical market
experience as well as diverse views regarding anticipated future returns. The expected inflation
assumption was developed based on an analysis of historical experience blended with forward-
looking expectations available in market data.

Best estimates of geometric real and nominal rates of return for each major asset class included in
the pension plan’s asset allocation as of the measurement date are summarized in the following
table:
Long-Term Expected Long-Term Expected

Domestic equity 5.39% 8.14%

Cash and equivalents 0.79% 3.54%
Total (weighted avg.) 6.66%
Reduced for assumed investment expense (0.99%)
Net assumed investment return (rounded to 1/4%) 5.75%
DISCOUNT RATES
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 5.75%. The liability discount rate
was developed using the alternative method described in paragraph 43 of GASB 67, which states
that “if the evaluations required by paragraph 41 can be made with sufficient reliability without a
separate projection of cash flows into and out of the pension plan, alternative methods may be
applied in making the evaluations.” The determination of the discount rate assumed that the plan’s
current overfunded status, combined with Minnesota statutory funding requirements, provide
sufficient reliability that projected plan assets will be adequate to pay future retiree benefits.
Therefore, the plan’s long-term expected return on plan investments was applied to all periods of
projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

NOTE 8 DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN
All city council members of the City of St. Anthony are covered by the Public Employees Defined Contribution
Plan (PEDCP), a multiple-employer deferred compensation plan administered by PERA. The PEDCP is a tax
qualified plan under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and all contributions by or on behalf of
employees are tax deferred until time of withdrawal.
Plan benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment earnings, less administrative
expenses. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353D.03, specifies plan provisions, including the employee and
employer contribution rates for those qualified personnel who elect to participate. An eligible elected official
75
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
who decides to participate contributes 5% of salary which is matched by the elected official's employer. For
ambulance service personnel, employer contributions are determined by the employer, and for salaried
employees, contributions must be a fixed percentage of salary. Employer contributions for volunteer personnel
may be a unit value for each call or period of alert duty. Employees who are paid for their services may elect to
make member contributions in an amount not to exceed the employer share. Employer and employee
contributions are combined and used to purchase shares in one or more of the seven accounts of the Minnesota
Supplemental Investment Fund. For administering the plan, PERA receives 2% of employer contributions and
twenty-five hundredths of 1% (.0025) of the assets in each member's account annually.

Note 9 OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB)
A. PLAN DESCRIPTION
In addition to providing the pension benefits described in Note 7, the City provides post-employment
health care benefits (as defined in paragraph B) for retired employees and police and firefighters
disabled in the line of duty, through a single-employer defined benefit plan. The term Plan refers to
the City’s requirement by State Statute to provide retirees with access to health insurance. The OPEB
plan is administered by the City. The authority to provide these benefits is established in Minnesota
Statutes Sections 471.61 Subd. 2a, and 299A.465. The benefits, benefit levels, employee contributions
and employer contributions are governed by the City and can be amended by the City through its
personnel manual and collective bargaining agreements with employee groups. The Plan is not
accounted for as a trust fund, as an irrevocable trust has not been established to account for the plan.
The Plan does not issue a separate report.
B. BENEFITS PROVIDED
Retirees
The City is required by State Statute to allow retirees to continue participation in the City’s group
health insurance plan if the individual terminates service with the City through service retirement or
disability retirement. To be eligible for benefits, an employee must qualify for retirement or disability
benefits from a Minnesota public pension plan. The employee may continue to participate in the
City’s group health insurance plan that the employee was a participant of immediately prior to
retirement. Employees may obtain dependent coverage at retirement only if the employee was
receiving dependent coverage immediately prior to retirement. Covered spouses may continue
coverage after the retiree’s death. The surviving spouse of an active employee may continue coverage
in the group health insurance plan after the employee’s death.
All health care coverage is provided through the City’s group health insurance plans. The retiree is
required to pay 100% of their premium cost for the City-sponsored group health insurance plan in
which they participate. The premium is a blended rate determined on the entire active and retiree
population. Since the projected claims costs for retirees exceed the blended premium paid by retirees,
the retirees are receiving an implicit rate subsidy (benefit). The coverage levels are the same as those
76

afforded to active employees. Upon a retiree reaching age 65, Medicare becomes the primary insurer
and the City’s plan becomes secondary.
Disabled police and firefighters
The City continues to pay the employer’s contribution toward health coverage for Police or
Firefighters disabled in the line of duty per Minnesota Statute 299A.465, until age 65. Coverage for a
spouse is included, if the spouse was covered at the time of the disability. The January 1, 2017

Retirees and beneficiaries currently
purchasing health insurance through the City 1
Disabled police and firefighters 1
Active employees 59
Total 61
Participating employers 1
D. FUNDING POLICY
The additional cost of using a blended rate for actives and retirees is currently funded on a pay-as-you-
go basis. The City Council may change the funding policy at any time.
E. ANNUAL OPEB COSTS AND NET OPEB OBLIGATION
The City’s annual other post-employment benefit (OPEB) cost is calculated based on the annual
required contribution (ARC) of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the
77
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an
ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial
liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed 30 years. The net OPEB obligation as of
December 31, 2017, was calculated as follows:
Annual required contribution (ARC)$71,295
Interest on net OPEB obligation 29,907
Adjustment to ARC (25,944)
Annual OPEB cost 75,258
Contributions made during the year (17,517)
Increase (decrease) in net OPEB obligation 57,741
Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year 664,590
Net OPEB obligation - end of year $722,331
For the governmental activities, the net OPEB obligation is generally liquidated by the General Fund.
The City had an actuarial valuation performed for the plan as of January 1, 2016 to determine the
funded status of the plan as of that date as well as the employer’s annual required contribution (ARC)
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017. The City’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual
OPEB cost contributed to the plan and the net OPEB obligation for 2015, 2016, and 2017 were as
follows:
Percentage of
Fiscal Year Annual OPEB Employer Annual OPEB Cost Net OPEB

December 31, 2017 75,258 17,517 23%722,331
F. FUNDED STATUS AND FUNDING PROGRESS
The City currently has no assets that have been irrevocably deposited in a trust for future health
benefits; therefore, the actuarial value of assets is zero. The funded status of the plan was as follows:
Actuarial Unfunded Actuarial UAAL as a
Actuarial Actuarial Accrued Accrued Funded Covered Percentage of
Valuation Value of Assets Liability (AAL)* Liability (UAAL) Ratio Payroll Covered Payroll

*Using the Projected Unit Credit Actuarial cost method.
G. ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and
assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include
assumptions about future employment, mortality and the health care cost trend. Amounts determined
regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions (ARC) of the employer
78
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new
estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required
supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multi-year trend
information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time
relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as
understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time
of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan
members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are
designed to reduce the effect of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial
value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations. In the January 1, 2016
actuarial valuation, the Projected Unit Credit Actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial
assumptions included a 4.5% investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses), an initial
annual health care cost trend rate of 9% reduced by .33% each year to arrive at an ultimate health care
cost trend rate of 5.0% and an inflation rate of 3.5%. The actuarial value of assets was $0. The plan’s
unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized using the level percentage of projected payroll
method over 30 years on an open basis.

Note 12 CONTINGENCIES
A. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, theft of, damage to and destruction of
assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters.
Workers compensation coverage is provided through a pooled self-insurance program through the
League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT). The City pays an annual premium to the
LMCIT. The City is subject to supplemental assessments if deemed necessary by the LMCIT. The
LMCIT reinsures through Workers Compensation Reinsurance Association (WCRA) as required by
law. The City has no deductible and a managed care program to assist employees with their
rehabilitation plan. Annual employee hours of service are audited and final premiums are then
determined. The amount of premium adjustment, if any, is considered immaterial and not recorded
until received or paid.
80
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
Property, casualty and automobile insurance coverage are provided through a pooled self-insurance
program through the LMCIT. The City pays an annual premium to the LMCIT. The City is subject to
supplemental assessments if deemed necessary by the LMCIT. The LMCIT reinsures through
commercial companies for claims in excess of various amounts. The City retains risk for the
deductible portions. These deductibles are considered immaterial to the financial statements.
The City continues to carry commercial insurance for all other risks of loss, including liquor liability,
employee health and disability insurance.
There were no significant reductions in insurance from the previous year. The City did not have
significant settlements in excess of insurance coverage in 2016 and 2015. In 2017, significant
settlements were in excess of insurance coverage by $670,000.
B. LITIGATION
Existing and pending lawsuits, claims and other actions in which the City is a defendant are either
covered by insurance; of an immaterial amount; or, in the judgement of the City management,
remotely recoverable by plaintiffs.
C. FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS
The City receives financial assistance from federal and state governmental agencies in the form of
grants. The disbursement of funds received under these programs generally requires compliance with
the terms and conditions specified in the grant agreements and are subject to audit by the grantor
agencies. Any disallowed claims resulting from such audits could become a liability of the applicable
fund. However, in the opinion of management, any such disallowed claims will not have a material
effect on any of the financial statements included herein or on the overall financial position of the City
at December 31, 2017.
D. TAX INCREMENT DISTRICTS
The City’s tax increment districts are subject to review by the State of Minnesota Office of the State
Auditor (OSA). Any disallowed claims or misuse of tax increments could become a liability of the
applicable fund. Management has indicated that they are not aware of any instances of noncompliance
which would have a material effect on the financial statements.
E. PAY-AS-YOU-GO TAX INCREMENT
The City has three tax increment pay-as-you-go agreements. The agreements are not a general
obligation of the City and are payable solely from available tax increment. Accordingly, these
agreements are not reflected in the financial statements of the City. Details of the pay-as-you-go notes
are as follows:
TIF District #3-5, Landings at Silver Lake Village:
Issued in 2004 in the principal sum of $4,464,407 with an interest rate of 6.75% per annum.
Principal and interest shall be paid on February 1 and August 1 thereafter to and including February
1, 2029. Payments are payable solely from available tax increment derived from the
developed/redeveloped property and paid to the City. The pay-as-you-go note provides for payment
81
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2017
to the developer equal to 90% of all tax increment received in the prior six months. The payment
reimburses the developer for public improvements. The City shall have no obligation to pay any
unpaid balance of principal or accrued interest that may remain after the final payment on February
1, 2029. The current year abatement (TIF note payments) amount to $452,396. At December 31,
2017, the principal amount outstanding on the note was $4,000,287.
TIF District #3-5, Phase II Town Homes:
Issued in 2006 in the principal sum of $937,520 with an interest rate of 6% per annum. Principal
and interest shall be paid on February 1 and August 1 thereafter to and including August 1, 2031.
Payments are payable solely from available tax increment derived from the developed/redeveloped
property and paid to the City. The pay-as-you-go note provides for payment to the developer equal
to 95% of all tax increment received in the prior six months. The payment reimburses the developer
for public improvements. The City shall have no obligation to pay any unpaid balance of principal
or accrued interest that may remain after the final payment on August 1, 2031. The current year
abatement (TIF note payments) amount to $52,686. At December 31, 2017, the principal amount
outstanding on the note was $937,520.
TIF District # 3-5, The Legends
Issued in 2016 in the principal sum of $1,023,000 with an interest rate of 5% per annum. Principal
and interest shall be paid on February 1 and August 1 thereafter to and including February 1, 2028.
Payments are payable solely from available tax increment derived from the developed/redeveloped
property and paid to the City. The pay-as-you-go note provides for payment to the developer equal
to 90% of all tax increment received in the prior six months. The payment reimburses the developer
for public improvements. The City shall have no obligation to pay any unpaid balance of principal
or accrued interest that may remain after the final payment on February 1, 2028. The current year
abatement (TIF note payments) amount to $144,828. At December 31, 2017, the principal amount
outstanding on the note was $868,753.
F. ARBITRAGE
The City issued greater than $5 million of bonds in the years 2006, 2007 and 2011 and, therefore, is
required to rebate excess investment income relating to these issues to the federal government. The
City calculates arbitrage rebate every five years as permitted by arbitrage regulations. The extent of
the City’s liability for arbitrage rebates for bond issues not currently requiring five year rebate
calculations is not determinable at this time. However, in the opinion of management, any such
liability would be immaterial.
Note 13 DEFERRED AD VALOREM TAX LEVIES - BONDED DEBT
General obligation bond issues sold by the City are financed by ad valorem tax levies and improvement bond
issues sold by the City are partially financed by ad valorem tax levies in addition to special assessments levied
against the benefiting properties. When a bond issue to be financed partially or completely by ad valorem tax
levies is sold, specific annual amounts of such tax levies are stated in the bond resolution and the County
Auditor is notified and instructed to levy these taxes over the appropriate years. The future tax levies are
subject to cancellation when and if the City has provided alternative sources of financing. The City Council is
required to levy any additional taxes found necessary for full payment of principal and interest.
These future scheduled tax levies are not shown as assets in the accompanying financial statements at
December 31, 2017.

B. MINIMUM UNASSIGNED FUND BALANCE POLICY
The City Council has formally adopted a policy regarding the minimum unassigned fund balance for
the General Fund. The most significant revenue source of the General Fund is property taxes. This
revenue source is received in two installments during the year – June and December. As such, it is the
City’s goal to begin each fiscal year with sufficient working capital to fund operations between each
semi-annual receipt of property taxes.
The policy establishes a year-end targeted unassigned fund balance amount for cash-flow timing needs
in the range of 30-35% of the subsequent year’s budgeted operating expenditures (net of expenditures
for police services to other cities). At December 31, 2017, the unassigned fund balance of the General
Fund was 37% of the subsequent year’s budgeted expenditures.

Note 15 CONDUIT DEBT OBLIGATION
From time to time, the City has issued Multi-family Housing Revenue Bonds to provide financial assistance to
private-sector entities for the acquisition and construction of rental housing deemed to be in the public interest.
The bonds are secured by the property financed and are payable solely from payments received on the
underlying mortgage loans. Upon repayment of the bonds, ownership of the acquired facilities transfers to the
private-sector entity served by the bond issuance. Neither the City, the State, nor any political subdivision
thereof is obligated in any manner for repayment of the bonds. Accordingly, the bonds are not reported as
liabilities in the accompanying financial statements.
As of December 31, 2017, there were seven series of Multi-family Housing Revenue Bonds outstanding. The
aggregate issued amount was $71,685,000, including two 1996 issues totaling $7,200,000, a 2002 issue of
$7,775,000, three 2004 issues of $39,760,000, and one 2013 issue of $16,950,000. The balance outstanding at

*Overlapping rates are those of local and county governments that apply to property owners within the City. Not all
overlapping rates apply to all City property owners; for example, although the county property tax rates apply to all
City property owners, other District rates apply only to the approximately one-third of City property owners whose
property is located within that District's geographic boundaries.

Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the City. This
schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents
and businesses of the City. This process recognizes that, when considering the City's ability to issue and repay long-term
debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However, this does not
imply that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping government.
*For debt repaid with property taxes, the percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable assessed
property values. Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of another governmental unit's taxable
assessed value that is within the City's boundaries and dividing it by each unit's total taxable assessed value.
