These financial statements are the responsibility of the Agency's management. Our responsibility is to * express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. 9 We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 2 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 2| reasonable assurance about whether the component unit financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial 3 statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a ™ reasonable basis for our opinions. m In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities and each major fund of the Agency as of June 30,2006, and the «• respective changes in financial position, and the respective budgetary comparison for the Low-Moderate Income ^ Housing Fund for the year then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United — States of America. «-*«"i — In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report, dated October 5,2006, on our „, consideration of the Agency's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain -- provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is 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 internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is —. an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered *"" in assessing the results of our audit. **"" The management's discussion and analysis as listed in the table of contents is not a required part of the basic — financial statements but is supplementary information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the ""* United States of America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of 2 management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it. McGladrey & Pullen, LLP is a member firm of RSM International, an affiliation of separate and independent legal entities. 1 a*™Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Agency's basic financial statements. The Combined Schedule of Revenues and Expenditures— Budget and Actual (Budgetary Basis) Debt Service Funds and Computation of Low-Moderate Income Housing Excess/Surplus Funds, listed in the table of contents as supplementary information, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. 2 Riverside, California October 5, 2006 a 3 a a a a a a a 1 1 a a *•— a Financial Section .»* a Management's Discussion and Analysis The Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency (Agency) established the Village project area in 1981 to help in eliminating blight and blighting influences from the Village downtown area, and to achieve desired development, reconstruction and rehabilitation, including but not limited to, residential, commercial, industrial and retail. The Agency established a second project area, the South Carlsbad Coastal project area, in 2000. The Agency finances projects with advances made by the City of Carlsbad (City) and a tax allocation bond issue. City advances and bond debt service payments are paid with yearly property tax increment revenue. As management of the Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency, we offer readers of the Agency's financial statements this overview and analysis of the financial activities of the Agency for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2006. Management wants to assist the reader of these financial statements to better understand the impact of financial decisions made by the Agency. This analysis will focus on the significant changes in an effort to explain the Agency's overall financial condition. Overview of the Financial Statements The Agency's basic financial statements include three components: (1) Government-wide Financial Statements, (2) Fund Financial Statements and (3) Notes to the Financial Statements. Government-wide Financial Statements: The Government-wide Statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Agency's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The statements comprise the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities. Statement of Net Assets—presents information on all of the Agency's assets and liabilities (including all of its capital assets and long-term liabilities) with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Increases or decreases in net assets may indicate whether the financial position of the Agency is improving or deteriorating over time. Statement of Activities—presents information showing how the Agency's net assets changed during the fiscal year. Changes in net assets are reported on a full accrual basis, or as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. The Government-wide Financial Statements can be found on pages 7 and 8 of this report. Fund Financial Statements: The Fund Financial Statements provide more detailed information about the individual funds of the Agency and reinforce information provided in the Government-wide Statements. Funds are separate accounts established to maintain control over resources that are segregated for specific activities or objectives. All of the Agency's funds are governmental funds. Fund Financial Statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources and the balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Since the fund financial statements measure only current revenues, expenditures and fund balances, they exclude capital assets, long-term debt and other long-term amounts. The basic Governmental Fund Financial Statements can be found on pages 9-16 of this report. Financial Analysis of the Agency Net Assets: The Agency's liabilities exceeded assets by over $8.6 million at the close of Fiscal Year 2006. This deficit was originally created when the City's General Fund loaned the Agency money to cover debt service costs during the period soon after the Agency's bonds were issued, and when tax increment revenues weren't sufficient to cover the entire debt expense. Redevelopment agencies typically leverage current tax increment revenues by issuing long-term debt (including loans from the City) in order to raise capital to promote economic development within the project areas. A portion of the Agency's net assets that are invested in capital assets net of related debt are negative as of June 30, 2006. When the Agency's bonds were issued, a majority of the bond proceeds were used to finance capital assets. At June 30,2006, $12.1 million of bonds are still outstanding, creating this deficit. Total assets increased by just over $1 million during Fiscal Year 2006. This increase is comprised of a $390,000 increase in the Agency's cash balance along with a $670,000 increase in the Agency's loans receivable balance. The increase in loans receivable is the result of a new loan made to a developer for the construction of a low-income apartment complex for $940,000, which is offset by a $270,000 scheduled loan payment made to the Agency by a developer on an outstanding loan. Liabilities at June 30, 2006 amount to $26.6 million. Of this amount, $12.1 million is outstanding debt on a tax allocation bond issue and $14.2 million is the advance owed to the City. Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency Net Assets 2006 Current and Other Assets Capital Assets Total assets Liabilities Long-term Liabilities Total liabilities Net Assets (Deficit): Invested in capital assets Unrestricted Total net assets (deficit) $ 9,581,237 $ 8,370,971 17,952,208 699,699 25,877,552 26,577,251 (3,694,029) (4,931,014) $ (8,625,043) $ 2005 8,466,083 8,453,987 16,920,070 715,298 25,753,294 26,468,592 (4,006,013) (5,542,509) (9,548,522) Changes in Net Assets: The increase in net assets for governmental activities was approximately $923,000. This increase was generated by total revenues of governmental activities of $3.7 million offset by $2.8 million in total costs of governmental activities. The Agency's Fiscal Year 2006 revenue came primarily from property tax increment, which increased by $466,000, or 18%, in Fiscal Year 2006. The Agency receives tax increment from two redevelopment project areas: the Village area and the South Carlsbad Coastal area. The Village area saw an increase of 29%, or $670,000, in property taxes in 2006 compared to 2005, while the South Carlsbad area saw a decrease of 95%, or $204,000, for the same time period. The increase in property tax increment for the Village area occurred, because the assessed values increased by 15.6% and a higher amount of supplemental taxes were collected in 2006 when compared to 2005. The decrease in property tax increment for the South Carlsbad area occurred, because the assessed property values in this area declined from $278 million in 2005, to $242 million in 2006. The decline is due to the lower assessed values assigned to the Encina Power facility. Charges for services revenue represents rental income collected from tenants of the Agency's affordable senior apartment building that totaled $431 ,000 and permits issued by the Agency that totaled $22,000 for Fiscal Year 2006, which is an increase of $12,000, or 3%, from the prior year. Income from property and investments, which includes rental income and investment interest income, contributed an additional $298,000 to the Agency's revenue in 2006 compared to $238,000 earned in 2005. The $60,000 increase in income from property and investments for 2006 is a result of a timing difference on a yearly interest payment from a developer on a housing loan. There were no payments received during 2005, but two payments were received in 2006. Agency expenses in Fiscal Year 2006 included $1,332,000 for administration and operation of affordable housing and redevelopment activities, $314,000 for general and fiscal charges and $1,183,000 for interest expense on the advance from the City and the Agency's Tax Allocation Bonds. Community development expenses increased $341,000 in 2006 from 2005. The increase can be attributed to a $58,000 payment to a consultant to perform a retail analysis and implementation strategy of the village project area, a $69,000 payment to a consultant for an environmental impact report for the Ponto area located in the South Carlsbad project area and $225,000 in expenses for street projects in 2006. These street projects are funded by the Agency and when completed, the infrastructure assets will be transferred to the primary government (the City). General government expenses increased $73,000 in 2006 from 2005. This increase can be attributed to an increase in the state-mandated payment to the Educational Revenue Augmentation Fund for 2006. This is the last year for this required payment to the state.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency (the Agency) was established in July 1976 with the adoption of Ordinance 3 No. 1191 by the Carlsbad City Council pursuant to the California Community Redevelopment Law, now codified as Part 1, Division 24, of the State of California Health and Safety Code. The Agency has the broad authority to acquire, 9 rehabilitate, develop, administer, and sell or lease property. The Agency is not subject to federal or state income taxes.a The principal objectives of the Agency are to eliminate blighted influences within the Village and South Carlsbad *• project areas of the City of Carlsbad, California, (the City), stimulate and attract private investment, generate added _ employment through increased specialty goods and services, and expand the City's sales tax revenue. . The accounting policies of the Agency conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of * America as applicable to governmental units. The following is a summary of the more significant policies. '3 Description and scope of the reporting entity: The Agency is an integral part of the reporting entity of the City. •*» The funds of the Agency have been included within the scope of the basic financial statements of the City because *"" the City Council is the governing board over the operations of the Agency. Only the funds of the Agency are included ^ herein; therefore, these financial statements do not purport to represent the financial position or results of operations """ of the City. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements: The Government-wide Financial Statements (i.e., the ™ Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the Agency. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental H activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from ^ business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on user fees and charges for support. The Agency does not M have any business-type activities. 2 The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are ^ offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable to a specific function or segment. •** Program revenues include (1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods, imm services or privileges provided by a given function or segment; and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to "• meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment, if any. Taxes and other items not «• properly classified as program revenues are reported as general revenues. 4M <•* Separate financial statements are provided for the governmental funds. Major individual governmental funds are ** reported in separate columns in the Fund Financial Statements. There were no non-major funds as of June 30,2006. a Measurement focus, basis of accounting and financial statement presentation: The Government-wide Financial m Statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing g of related cash flows. In applying the susceptible-to-accrual concept to intergovernmental revenues, the legal and contractual requirements of the individual programs are used as guidance. Property taxes are recognized as 3 revenues in the year for which they are levied. 17 Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency Notes to Financial Statements Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued 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 available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the Agency considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting, as long as the expenditure reflects a near-term cash outflow. Principal and interest on long-term debt are recorded as fund liabilities when due or when amounts have been accumulated in the debt service fund for payments to be made early in the following year. The Agency's primary source of revenue is property taxes, referred to in the accompanying financial statements as "property tax increment." Property taxes allocated to the Agency are computed in the following manner: property taxes related to any incremental increase in assessed values after the adoption of a Redevelopment Plan are allocated to the Agency; all taxes on the "frozen" assessed valuation of the property are allocated to the City and other districts receiving taxes from the project area. The Agency has no power to levy and collect taxes and any legislative property tax reduction would lower the amount of tax revenues that would otherwise be available to pay the principal and interest on bonds or loans from the City. Conversely, any increase in the tax rate or assessed valuation or any elimination of present exemptions would increase the amount of tax revenues that would be available to pay principal and interest on bonds or loans from the City. The Agency is also authorized to finance the Redevelopment Plan from other sources, including assistance from the City, the state and federal governments, interest income and the issuance of Agency debt. Real property taxes are levied on October 15 against property owners of record on January 1 of that year. The taxes are due in two installments, on November 1 and February 1, and become delinquent after December 10 and April 10, respectively. Tax liens attach annually as of 12:01 a.m. on the first day of January in the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. The Agency has presented the following major funds: The Low-Moderate Income Housing special revenue funds are used to account for money administered by the Agency for designated low- and moderate-income housing projects. The Tyler Court Apartments special revenue fund is used to account for the operations of the affordable senior citizen apartment project. The Redevelopment Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources for and payment of, principal and interest on the Agency's bonds, issued to finance improvements for the downtown and southern coastal areas of the City. The Capital Projects funds are used to account for capital projects and general operations of the Agency. Use of estimates: The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying note disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. 18 . Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency « Notes to Financial Statements a Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continueda Cash and investments: Cash includes amounts in demand and time deposits. Investments are reported in the 3 accompanying balance sheet at fair value. 3 Changes in fair value that occur during a fiscal year are recognized as income from investments reported for that fiscal year. Income from property and investments includes interest earnings; changes in fair value; any gains or 3 losses realized upon the liquidation, maturity or sale of investments; property rentals; and the sale of Agency-owned property. ^, The Agency maintains its cash and investments for all funds with the City as pooled cash and investments. Each — fund's share of the pool is displayed in the accompanying financial statements as cash and investments. Investment ~~ income earned by the pooled investments is allocated to the various funds on a monthly basis, based on each fund's ""* average cash and investments balance. **m "** Capital assets: Capital assets, which include land, buildings and improvements, equipment, and construction in "" progress, are reported in the governmental activities columns in the Government-wide Financial Statements. Capital *""* assets are defined by the Agency as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $10,000 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. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of an asset or materially extend an asset's ^ useful life are not capitalized. Construction-in-progress costs are transferred to their respective fixed asset category upon completion. DM ^ Depreciation is charged to the community development program, in the Statement of Activities, using the straight-line H method based on the estimated useful life of an asset. The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are 10-50 ._ years for buildings and improvements. mm ,„, In June 1999, GASB Statement No. 34 was issued, which requires the inclusion of infrastructure capital assets in — local governments' basic financial statements. The Agency has no infrastructure to be included in the capital assets. *«w» *•*• Long-term obligations: In the Government-wide Financial Statements, long-term debt and other long-term — obligations are reported as liabilities in the Statement of Net Assets. »M# — In the Fund Financial Statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums, discounts and issuance costs """" 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. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt ~" service expenditures. ^ Net assets: Net assets represent the difference between assets and liabilities. Net assets are reported as restricted **" when there are limitations imposed by creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments. Restricted ~ resources are used first to fund appropriations. H Fund equity: The reserved portion of the fund balances represents those amounts that have been legally identified for a specific purpose or amounts that are not available to liquidate current liabilities. The unreserved portion «* represents the amount available for future appropriations. Designated fund balances represent tentative plans for the future use of financial resources. 19 Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency Notes to Financial Statements Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, Continued Use of restricted/unrestricted net assets: When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net assets are available, the Agency's policy is to apply restricted net assets first. Unrestricted net assets: The Agency's unrestricted net assets are in a deficit position primarily because long-term debt is in excess of capital assets owned by the Agency. The Agency issues debt for construction and/or acquisition of assets, which it then turns over to the City or to private parties within the redevelopment project area. Note 2. Budgetary Data During May or June, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. Public hearings are conducted at the City Council meetings to obtain citizens' comments during June. The City Council finalizes the budget no later than July 1. The City Manager (as the Agency Executive Director) is authorized to make transfers of appropriated amounts from one department to another within a fund. The legal level of budgetary control is at the fund level. Budgets have been adopted for the Low-Moderate Income Housing special revenue fund and the debt service funds, in total. A budget is not adopted for the Tyler Court Apartments special revenue fund. Revisions that alter the total appropriations of any fund must be approved by the City Council, with the exception of budget adjustments that involve offsetting revenues and expenditures. The City Manager is authorized to increase or decrease an appropriation for a specific purpose where the appropriation is offset by unbudgeted revenue, which is designated for said specific purpose. Monthly reports are provided to the City Council during the year, and any changes to the adopted budget are approved by the City Council as necessary. Budgets for governmental type funds are adopted on the modified accrual basis, except that encumbrances are treated as budgeted expenditures in the year purchases are committed. Expenditures may not exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level. All appropriations lapse at fiscal year end unless the City Council takes action in the form of a resolution to continue the appropriation into the following fiscal year. For purposes of budgetary presentation, actual revenues have been adjusted to exclude unrealized gains and losses pursuant to GASB Statement No. 31, and actual expenditures have been adjusted to include encumbrances outstanding. Note 3. Cash and Investments The Agency's cash and invested cash are pooled with the City's cash and invested cash. Income from the investment of pooled cash is allocated to the Agency's funds on a monthly basis, based upon the average monthly balance of the fund as a percent of the average monthly total pooled cash balance. Individual investments cannot be identified with any single fund because the City may be required to liquidate its investments at any time to cover large cash outlays required in excess of normal operating needs. Cash and invested cash consist of U.S. government-backed securities and investments in State of California Local Agency Investment Fund, as well as corporate notes. The City values all of its cash and invested cash at fair value on a portfolio basis. The City manages its pooled idle cash and investments under a formal investment policy that is reviewed by the Investment Committee and adopted annually by the City Council and that follows the guidelines of the State of California Government Code. 20 Carlsbad Redevelopment Agency Notes to Financial Statements a a a a a a a a Note 3. Cash and Investments, Continued Invested cash is stated at fair value. The increase in the fair value of investments is recognized as an increase to interest income revenue. The City normally holds investments to term; therefore, no realized gain/loss is recorded. Citywide information concerning cash and investments for the year ended June 30, 2006, including authorized investments, custodial credit risk, credit and interest rate risk for debt securities and concentration of investments, carrying amount and market value of deposits and investments may be found in the notes to the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Note 4. Loans Receivable Loans receivable represent monies provided to low- and moderate-income residents in the City for home improvements or down payments made to acquire certain residences within the City and to the developers of such residences qualifying as low- and moderate-income housing. As of June 30,2006, there were four loans outstanding, totaling $2,762,220, of varying terms, which are typically paid off over the final years of the term. Transfer of ownership of the property prior to the final year of the loan causes the balance owed to become due and payable to the Agency. The loans are collateralized by the property acquired/developed. a a a Note 5.

Long-term Debt, ContinuedaThe Tax Reform Act instituted certain arbitrage restrictions with respect to the issuance of tax-exempt bonds. 9 Arbitrage regulations deal with the investment of all tax-exempt bond proceeds at an interest yield greater than the interest yield paid to bondholders. Generally, all interest paid to bondholders can be retroactively rendered taxable if 3 applicable rebates are not paid to the federal government at least every five years. 3 The Agency does not have investment earnings on various bonds and financings; therefore, no arbitrage rebate _ liability exists as of June 30,2006.a ** Note 7.

The Agency, through the City, is self-insured, with ** excess coverage for liability purposes, and carries property insurance as well through the City. Since the Agency •m does not have any employees (it uses employees from the City), it is not liable for injury to employees, workers' compensation, or employee health and accident insurance. The City has had no reductions in insurance coverage, 2 nor did the City have any settlements that were in excess of insurance coverage in any of the three preceding years. 't&Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies"••«•Operating lease: In June 1988, the Agency entered into an agreement to lease a parking lot on State Street from a 3 private party.

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. Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Agency's internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting. Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control and its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Agency's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. This included those provisions of laws and regulations identified in the Guidelines for Compliance Audits of California Redevelopment Agencies, issued by the State Controller, and as interpreted in the Suggested Auditing Procedures for Accomplishing Compliance Audits of California Redevelopment Agencies, issued by the Governmental Accounting and Auditing Committee of the California Society of Certified Public Accountants. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. This report is intended for the information of the Board of Commissioners, management of the Agency and the State Controllers' Office, Division of Accounting and Reporting, and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than those specified parties.
