TITLE: DEPT. 1 MTG.'1/2h/9.1 1991-92 ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORTS CITY A DEPT. F1N CITY M RECOMMENDED ACTION: Accept the 1991-92 City of Carlsbad Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), and the annual reports for the Parking and Building Authorities, the Public Improvemen Corporation, and the Redevelopment Agency. ITEM EXPLANATION Each year an independent auditor examines the City's financial records and for the fi.ftl year, the audit firm of KPMG Peat Marwick was retained. The audit process requires severa months of on-site examination, testing, and reconciliation of investments, bank statements accounting records, warrants issued, payroll records, appropriations, fixed assets, revenue and expenditures. The end result is an opinion on the fairness of the presentation of th financial data within the reports. As in the past, this year we received an unqualifiei opinion on all of our annual reports. In addition, the City CAFR has received awards fo excellence from the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States an Canada (GFOA) and the California Society of Municipal Finance Officers (CSMFO) sinc 1986. The 1991-92 CAFR will only be submitted to the CSMFO award program this yea due to budget constraints. The reports show the financial condition of the City at June 30,1992. The combined asset of the City of Carlsbad are $341 million, with fixed assets comprising 48% and cash an investments at 34% of the total. Total City expenditures were $77 million, a decrease c $14.7 million from 1990-91. Reduction in capital projects spending for street improvemen1 funded by special assessment districts was the main cause of the decreased expenditure: however, water and sewer enterprise fund expenses increased significantly because of high€ sewer plant charges, depreciation, and write off of the Calavera Hills Sewer Reclamatio Facility. Combined revenues totaled $82 million, a $17 million decline from last year's total of $9 million. Decreased revenues are directly linked to recessionary influences on taxes ar construction fees, diversion of revenues to the state and county, fewer building permi resulting in less funding for capital projects, and the sale of Alga Road assessment distri bonds in 1990. These decreases were partially offset by increased receipts in the Polic Asset Forfeiture fund from the sale of forfeited crime-related property and higher sewer ar water revenues. Undesignated reserves for the general fund and capital projects remained at approximate $8 million and $6 million respectively; while special revenue reserves increased to ? million due to greater Police Asset Forfeiture unappropriated funds. Increases in availab reserves are also reflected in the sewer and water enterprise funds as well as the worke: compensation and vehicle replacement internal service funds.
