Minnesota state statutes and the city's ordinance require an annual audit of the city's accounts by the Office of the State Auditor or an independent certified public accountant. The firm of BerganKDV was selected to perform the city's audit and their unmodified opinion has been included in this report. The independent auditors' report is included in the financial section of this report. The responsibility for the completeness and accuracy of this data, as well as the fairness of this presentation including all enclosures,rests with the city. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the enclosed data are accurate in all material respects and are recorded in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and the results of operations of the various funds of the city. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed to both protect the city's assets from loss, theft, or misuse, and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Because the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements. GAAP requires management to provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The city's MD&A can be found immediately following the independent auditor's report. Profile of the City Elk River was originally incorporated in 1880 and consolidated with Elk River Township in 1978 to form a city of roughly 44 square miles. Elk River is the Sherburne County Seat and is located approximately halfway between the metropolitan areas of Minneapolis/St. Paul and St. Cloud along the Mississippi River. The city has been growing and will not reach full development in the near future. The current population is approximately 26,406. Urban services are available to about one- third of the city's land area. Elk River operates as a Statutory Plan A form of government consisting of a four-member city council and an at-large mayor who is also a voting member. Council members are elected by ward to a four-year term with two council seats up for election each even year. The mayor is also elected to a four-year term. The mayor and council are responsible for adopting the city's budget and tax levy, passing resolutions and ordinances, all hiring and firing decisions, policy making, development and growth planning, and overall direction of the city. 3 Profile of the City (Continued) The city provides a full range of services and amenities including police and fire protection, building safety inspections, planning and zoning, economic development, environmental services, recreation programming, street and park maintenance, and snow removal. The city also manages municipal water, sanitary sewer, garbage/recycling, and electric services. Elk River also owns and operates two municipal off-sale liquor stores, the city library, community event center and over 40 active and passive parks. The annual budget serves as the foundation for the city's financial planning and control. The city administrator must prepare estimates for an annual budget and submit them to the city council for approval. The council is required to adopt a final budget by late December for the subsequent year. The budget is prepared by fund, function (e.g. public works), and department (e.g. streets). Department directors are allowed to make administrative budget amendments (excluding personal service and capital outlay) throughout the year if the total department budget does not change and the amendment is approved by the city administrator and finance manager. Budget amendments to the total budgeted expenditures require city council approval. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in this report for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. For the General Fund, this comparison is presented as part of the basic financial statements for the Governmental Funds. For other Governmental Funds with appropriated annual budgets, this comparison is presented in the Governmental Fund subsection of this report. Local Economy The local economy has continued to grow as indicated by building permits with a construction value of$109,929,862 issued in 2022. New construction accounts for $42,492,977 and additions/remodels make up the $67,436,885 balance. In 2022,residential growth slowed as the city issued 95 new housing permits, significantly fewer than the 141 permits issued in 202 L Single family homes accounted for 93 of the new permits, in addition to two new multi-family apartment buildings with a total of 180 units. The average value home increased to $344,100 from $278,000 in 2021. The recent market trend shows property value growth by valuation increases on existing properties and new construction/remodeling. There remains continued interest in both affordable and market rate multi-family housing projects, as well as protecting property values of the existing housing stock. Many of Elk River's employers reported stable employment levels during 2022 and are expected to remain stable. This is largely due to the diverse industry sectors of manufacturing, retail trade, government, and health services that drive the local economy within the region. The commerciaUindustrial sector has experienced modest growth and the economic outlook in this region looks promising with recent development projects that should continue to spur tax base growth and employment. Long-term Financial Planning The city has developed a financial management plan that provides a long-range forecast projecting future expenditures, revenues, and development. The council diligently maintains a level tax rate and the plan provides the guidance needed to develop and sustain city services while keeping the property taxes stable. The council reviews and updates the financial management plan annually as part of the annual budget and Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)process. The CIP is a comprehensive five-year planning tool that forecasts the city's capital needs based on the city's long-range plans, goals, and policies. 4 Relevant Financial Policies The council has adopted a comprehensive set of Financial Management Policies that provide the basic framework for the overall fiscal management of the city. The policies provide guidance for revenues, property taxes, investments, purchasing, �nancial reporting, reserves, fund balance, capital investment, and debt. Financial stability requires reserve funds for unanticipated expenditures or unforeseen emergencies, and adequate working capital for current operating needs to avoid short- term borrowing. City policy requires the unassigned funds in the General Fund be maintained at not less than 40-45% of budgeted operating expenditures; however, this may fluctuate with each year's budget objectives. Major Initiatives Elk River was selected for$157 million state transportation funding to redesign and reconstruct three miles of Highway 169 which runs north-south through the city. The Highway 169 corridor is an important arterial route serving commuters, recreational uses, and connecting economic centers in the state. The project which began in 2022 will convert Highway 169 to a new freeway by removing five stop lights from the Mississippi River north through Elk River. During 2022, the interchanges at the north and south ends of the project area were completed. In 2023, two more interchanges will be added. Construction on the final interchange will be done in 2024. When complete, the project will increase capacity, improve overall traffic flow, and improve accessibility and safety. As part of the $35,000,000 Active Elk River projects, several construction projects which began in 2021 were completed in 2022. Improvements completed in 2022 included a skatepark, restroom/shelter facilities, splash pad and pickleball courts at Orono Park and restroom/shelter facilities and concession area at the Youth Athletic Complex. Renovation and expansion of the Public Safety Facility to build out the police department second floor office space, expand the police parking garage, and add fire department support space, training rooms, and apparatus bays was completed in 2022. The city also completed the construction of Fire Station#3 to ensure fire protection services for our primary residential growth area during the construction of Highway 169. The new fire station includes classroom space, physical training area, and a built in fire tower for hands-on training opportunities. Awards and Acknowledgements The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada(GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Elk River for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. This was the 33rd consecutive year the city has received this prestigious award. To be awarded the certificate, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized ACFR. This report must satisfy both GAAP and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year. We believe that our current ACFR will meet the program's requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate. 5 Awards and Acknowledgements (Continued) The preparation of this report is made possible by the efficient and dedicated services of the entire staff of the finance division, all city departments, and through the helpful guidance and assistance from our auditing firm, BerganKDV. Credit must also be given to the mayor and city council for their diligence and resolve in maintaining high standards in the financial management of the city.

In our opinion, based on our report and the report of other auditors, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Elk River, as of December 31, 2022, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof, and the budgetary comparison for the General Fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinions We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America(GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Emphasis of Matter—Implementation of GASB 87 The City has adopted new accounting guidance, Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB) Statement No. 87,Leases. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements The City of Elk River's management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for 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. BERGANKDV, LTD. � BERGANKDV.COM � DO MORE. 15 Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements (Continued) In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City's ability to continue as a going concern for one year beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 City's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control—related matters that we identified during the audit. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Electric and Water proprietary funds, which represent 68% of the assets and deferred outflows, 61% of the net position, and 93% of the revenues of the proprietary funds and business-type activities. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the proprietary funds and business-type activities, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. BERGANKDV, LTD. � BERGANKDV.COM � DO MORE. 16 Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis, which follows this report letter, and Required Supplementary information as listed in the Table of Contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB), 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. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Elk River's basic financial statements. The accompanying supplementary information identified in the Table of Contents is presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The 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 accompanying supplementary information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. Other Information Management is responsible for the other information included in the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. The other information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic financial statements and our auditar's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of assurance thereon. In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.

The government-wide fznancial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City's assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference between the four reported as net position. Over time,increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the fmancial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The Statement ofActivities 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. 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 that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenue (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 include general government,public safety, public works, culture and recreation, community development, and interest on long-term debt. The business-type activities of the City include municipal liquor, sewer, garbage, storm water, electric, and water utilities. The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself(known as the primary government),but also a legally separate Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) which are backed by the full faith and credit of the City of Elk River. Financial information for this component unit is discretely presented for the primary government. The government-wide financial statements start on page 34 of this report. Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, 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 can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary 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 government's near-term financing requirements. 22 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) 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 by the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances (deficits)provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The City maintains several individual governmental funds, five of which are Debt Service funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund and Pavement Management, which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements or schedules elsewhere in this report. The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General, Library, Multipurpose Facility, and Economic Development Funds. A budgetary comparison statement or schedule has been provided for these funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget. The basic governmental fund financial statements start on page 38 of this report. Proprietary Funds. The City maintains one type of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to repart the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its liquor, sewer, garbage, storm water, electric, and water operations. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary funds financial statements provide separate information for each of the enterprise funds which are considered to be major funds of the City. The basic proprietary funds financial statements start on page 46 of this report. Notes to the Basic 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 basic financial statements start on page 55 of this report. Required Supplementary Information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain Required Supplementary Information concerning the City of Elk River's share of net pension liabilities far defined benefit plans, schedule of contributions, and progress in funding its obligation to provide pension and other postemployment benefits to its employees. Required Supplementary Information can be found starting on page 101 of this report. 23 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) Required Supplementary Information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain Required Supplementary Information concerning the City of Elk River's share of net pension liabilities for defined benefit plans, schedule of contributions, and progress in funding its obligation to provide pension and other postemployment benefits to its employees. Required Supplementary Information can be found starting on page 101 of this report. Other Information. The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds are presented following the notes to the financial statements. Combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules start on page 118 of this report. GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City, assets and deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows by $245,315,759 at the close of the most recent fiscal year. By far, the largest portion of the City's net position (72.1%) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, and equipment) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that are still outstanding. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. 24 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) City of Elk River's Summary of Net Position Governmental Activities Business-Type Activities Increase Increase 2022 2021 (Dccrcase) 2022 2021 (Decrease) Assets Current and other assets $ 52,094,579 $ 54,324,030 $ (2,229,451) $ 53,468,950 $ 62,144,712 $ (8,675,762) Capital assets 144,536,694 140,641,604 3,895,090 131,672,213 122,264,788 9,407,425 Total assets 196,631,273 194,965,634 1,665,639 185,141,163 184,409,500 731,663 Deferred Outflows of Resources Deferred OPEB resources 81,827 85,487 (3,660) 11,058 11,553 (495) Deferred pension resources 12,666,297 7,586,984 5,079,313 1,866,126 2,242,888 (376,762) Total deferred outflows of resources 12,748,124 7,672,471 5,075,653 1,877,184 2,254,441 (377,257) Liabilities Otber liabilities 5,920,358 6,690,658 (770,300) 8,076,913 8,702,867 (625,954) Noncurrentliabilities 84,990,762 71,879,094 13,1ll,668 45,797,114 51,982,645 (6,185,531) Totalliabilities 90,911,120 78,569,752 12,341,368 53,874,027 60,685,512 (6,811,485) Deferred Inflows of Resources Deferred OPEB resources 107,304 134,572 (27,268) 14,500 18,185 (3,685) Deferred pension resources 750,069 9,769,924 (9,019,855) 83,351 2,832,246 (2,748,895) Deferred lease resources 229,506 - 229,506 5,112,108 - 5,112,108 Tota1 deferred inflows of resources 1,086,879 9,904,496 (8,817,617) 5,209,959 2,850,431 2,359,528 Net Posifion Net inveshnent in capital assets 83,281,488 75,360,937 7,920,551 93,539,999 87,943,523 5,596,476 Restricted 9,676,717 12,112,762 (2,436,045) 1,779,016 1,779,016 - Unrestricted 24,423,193 26,690,158 (2,266,965) 32,615,346 33,405,459 (790,113) Total net position $ 117,381,398 $ 114,163,857 $ 3,217,541 $ 127,934,361 $ 123,127,998 $ 4,806,363 An additional portion of the City's net position (4.6%)represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net position (23.3%) may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. At the end of the current fiscal year, the City is able to report positive balances in all three categories of net position, both far the City as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities. The same situation held true for the prior fiscal year. Governmental Activities. Governmental activities increased the City's net position by $3,217,541, thereby accounting for 40.1% of the growth in the net position of the City. Key elements of this change are as follows: 25 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) City of Elk River's Changes in Net Position Governmental Activities Business-Type Activities [ncrease Increase 2022 2021 (Decrease) 2022 2021 (Decrease) Revenues Program revenues Charges for services $ 3,805,379 $ 3,524,749 $ 280,630 $ 61,806,702 $ 58,307,035 $ 3,499,667 Operating grants andcontributions 1,905,073 1,328,148 576,925 - - - Capital grants and contributions 8,005,633 5,916,070 2,089,563 7,289,979 4,308,960 2,981,019 Generalrevenues Property taxes 15,250,309 14,290,673 959,636 - - - Franchise and gravel taxes 1,722,678 1,754,189 (31,511) - - - Sales taxes 3,862,154 3,469,146 393,008 - - - Grants and contributions not restricted 734,932 747,226 (12,294) - - - Unrestricted investment earnings (2,079,797) (56,944) (2,022,853) (1,947,278) (75,566) (1,871,712) Gain(loss)on disposal ofcapitalassets 108,455 1,053,072 (944,617) 32,788 (159,879) 192,667 Miscellaneous revenues 537,061 522,275 14,786 - - - Total revenues 33,851,877 32,548,604 1,303,273 67,182,191 62,380,550 4,801,641 Expenses General government 5,180,758 4,655,075 525,683 - - - Public safety 11,558,469 8,082,449 3,476,020 - - - Public works 7,638,554 5,340,633 2,297,921 - - - Culture and recreation 6,139,661 11,070,966 (4,931,305) - - - Economic development 527,673 433,530 94,143 - - - Interest and fiscal charges 1,615,250 1,796,294 (181,044) - - - Municipalliquor - - - 7,785,027 7,683,695 101,332 Sewer - - - 3,759,165 3,743,503 15,662 Garbage - - - 1,670,454 1,623,785 46,669 Storm water - - - 663,420 612,527 50,893 Electric - - - 43,262,804 38,462,316 4,800,488 Water - - - 3,208,929 3,210,394 (1,465) Total expenses 32,660,365 31,378,947 1,281,418 60,349,799 55,336,220 5,013,579 Increase in Net Assetsbeforetransfers 1,191,512 1,169,657 21,855 6,832,392 7,044,330 (211,938) Transfers 2,026,029 2,832,128 (806,099) (2,026,029) (2,832,128) 806,099 ChangesinNetPosition 3,217,541 4,001,785 (784,244) 4,806,363 4,212,202 594,161 Net position,January 1 114,163,857 110,162,072 4,001,785 123,127,998 118,915,796 4,212,202 Netposition,December3l $ ll7,381,398 $ 114,163,857 $ 3,217,541 $ 127,934,361 $ 123,127,998 $ 4,806,363 • Property taxes represent approximately 45.0% of total revenues in 2022 in governmental activities. • The largest revenue variance was an increase in capital grants and contributions due in part to funding received through the Municipal Street Aid program. • The largest expense variance was a decrease in the culture and recreation function as a result of capital project work that was completed in 2021. 26 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) Governmental Activities (Continued) The following graph depicts various governmental activities and shows the revenues and expenses directly related to those activities.

Governmental Funds. The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near- term inflows, outflows and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unrestricted fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of$42,522,183, a decrease of$2,644,989 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 18% of this total amount ($7,610,065) constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available for spending at the City's discretion. The remainder of fund balance ($34,912,118) is not available for new spending because it is either 1) nonspendable ($114,967), 2)restricted($12,149,090), 3) committed ($9,583,438), or 4) assigned($13,064,623) for the purposes described in the fund balance section of each balance sheet. Fund Balance December 31, Increase Major Funds 2022 2021 (Decrease) General $ 8,888,888 $ 8,750,629 $ 138,259 The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. The General Fund had an increase in fund balance of$138,259. The fund had net transfers of$2,158,650 during the year, which contributed to the increase. Pavement Management $ 6,274,764 $ 6,369,604 $ (94,840) The Pavement Management Fund is a major capital projects fund with a total fund balance of$6,274,764. Fund balance decreased$94,840 from 2021 as investment loses of$725,166 contributed to the decrease. Proprietary Funds. The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Unrestricted net position of the enterprise funds at the end of the year amounted to $32,615,346. The total increase in net position for the funds was $4,806,363. The City's General Fund budget was not amended during the year. The budget called for no change in fund balance. The General Fund had an actual increase of$138,259 in 2022. Some of the larger variances are as follows: • Revenues were over budget by $206,671 with charges for services revenue being over budget by $111,410. Licenses and permits were over budget by $73,433. 29 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) General Fund Budgetary Highlights (Continued) • Expenditures were over budget by $154,131, in part due to public safety being over budget by $255,904 due to new reporting requirements for leases. General government was under budget by $109,176. Capital Asset and Debt Administration Capital Assets. The City's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of December 31, 2022, amounts to $173,821,487 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, structures, improvements, machinery and equipment,park facilities, roads, highways and bridges. Major capital asset events during the current fiscal year included the following: • Construction completed on the public safety facility • Construction completed on Fire Station#3 • Construction completed on Orono Park • Purchases of vehicles • Various street improvement projects City of Elk River's Capital Assets (Net of Accumulated Depreciation/Amortization) Governmental Activities Business-Type Activities Increase Increase 2022 2021 (Decrease) 2022 2021 (Decrease) Land $ 38,838,959 $ 38,802,663 $ 36,296 $ 1,965,026 $ 1,924,686 $ 40,340 Construction in progress 1,913,782 16,442,587 (14,528,805) 2,351,587 7,243,598 (4,892,011) Buildings 56,533,406 45,559,544 10,973,862 27,401,128 15,942,807 11,458,321 Improvements other than buildings 9,567,471 5,916,977 3,650,494 158,677 174,600 (15,923) Equipment 7,743,980 6,497,219 1,246,761 7,005,001 6,891,996 ll3,005 Infrastructure 29,530,007 27,422,614 2,107,393 68,750,797 66,361,523 2,389,274 Intangible assets - - - 23,997,909 23,725,578 Leased equipment 409,089 - 409,089 42,088 - 42,088 Total $ 144,536,694 $ 140,641,604 $ 3,895,090 $ 131,672,213 $ 122,264,788 $ 9,135,094 Additional information on the City's capital assets can be found in Note 8 starting on page 70 of this report. 30 City of Elk River Management's Discussion and Analysis GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS (CONTINUED) Capital Asset and Debt Administration (Continued) Long-term Debt.

Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates The City of Elk River estimates that the demand for City services will continue at stable growth levels due to the economic environment and the outlook of recent building activity. This was taken into consideration in preparation of the City's 2023 budget. The property tax levy is set annually and is adjusted as necessary to fund the cost of providing services to our citizens and customers. Charges for services are evaluated each year and adjusted if warranted. The City expects to keep the tax levy consistent in upcoming years.

However, in the Statement of Activiries,the cost of those assets is allocated over the esrimated useful lives as depreciation expense. Capital outlays 7,997,434 Developer capital contributions 3,514,420 Depreciation/amortization expense (7,200,674) Loss on disposal of capital assets (75,089) Completed CIP Transferred to Enterprise Funds (859,604) Some expenses are recognized as paid in the governmental funds but recognized as the expense is incurred in the Statement of Activities. Compensated absences payable (21,314) Total other post employment benefits(OPEB)liability (4,485) Principal payments on long-term debt are recognized as expenditures in the governmental funds but as an increase in the net position in the Statement of Activities. Bond principal payments 2,265,000 Lease principal payments 110,772 Governmental funds report the effects of bond premiums and discounts when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the Statement of Activities. 251,933 Interest on long-term debt in the Statement of Activities diffcrs from the amount reported in the governmental funds because interest is recognized as an expenditure in the funds when it is due and thus requires use of current financial resources. In the Statement of Activities,however, interest expense is recognized as the interest accrues,regardless of when it is due. 50,810 Governmental funds recognize pension contriburions as expenditures at the time of payment whereas the Statement of Activities factors in items related to pensions on a full accrual perspective. Pension expense (1,501,083) Revenues in the Statement of Activiries that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds. State shared taxes 1,291,808 Certain revenues are recognized as soon as they are earned.Under the modified accrual basis of accounting certain revenues cannot be recognized until they are available to liquidate liabiliries of the current period.

Reporting Entity The City of Elk River, Minnesota(the City) operates under the "Optional Plan A" form of government as defined in Minnesota Statutes. Under this plan, the City Council is composed of an elected mayor and four elected Council Members. The Council appoints personnel responsible for the proper administration of all affairs relating to the City. The basic financial statements and the accounting policies of the City conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial statements of the reporting entity include those of the City of Elk River (the primary government) and its component units. The Elk River Municipal Utilities is considered to be part of the primary government. The Elk River Municipal Utilities was established, and statutary authority is provided in accordance with Chapter 412.321 of the Minnesota Statutes and is considered to be part of the City. The Utilities Commission has five council approved members who serve overlapping three-year terms. The statutes provide the City Council all the discretionary authority necessary to operate the utilities, except as its powers have been delegated to the Commission. The Utility funds are included with the enterprise funds of this report. Separate financial statements for the Utilities may be obtained at the Elk River Municipal Utilities, 13069 Orono Pkwy, Elk River, Minnesota, 55330. The City has considered all potential units for which it is financially accountable, and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has set forth criteria to be considered in determining financial accountability. These criteria include appointing a voting majority of an organization's governing body, and(1) the ability of the primary government to impose its will on that organization or(2) the potential for the organization to provide specific benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the primary government. Based upon the application of these criteria, the City has the following component units: 1. Blended Component Unit The Economic Development Authority (EDA) was created to carry out economic and industrial development and redevelopment within the City in accordance with policies established by the City Council. The seven-member board consists of three Council Members, the Mayor and three other council approved members. The criteria that result in the EDA being reported as a blended component unit include the fact that the EDA may not exercise any of its authorized powers without prior approval of the City Council and the City having operational responsibility. The EDA is reported as a special revenue fund and does not issue separate financial statements. 55 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) A. Reporting Entity (Continued) 2. Discretely Presented Component Unit The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) is a legally separate entity created to carry out community development consistent with policies established by the City Council. The HRA is governed by five council appointed members, one of which is a Council Member; however, the City does not have a financial benefit or burden relationship and does not have operational responsibility. The criteria that result in the HRA being reported as a discretely presented component unit include 1) the five council appointed member board and 2) the ability of the City to impose its will on the HRA by significantly influencing the programs, projects, activities, or level of service performed by the HRA by approving the HRA's budget. The HRA does not issue separate financial statements and are included in the financial section of this report. 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 City. The fiduciary funds are only reported in the statement of fiduciary net position and the statement of changes in fiduciary net position at the fund financial statement level. 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 segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Interest on general long-term debt is considered an indirect expense and is reported separately in the Statement of Activities. 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 segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Internally dedicated revenues are reported as general revenues rather than program revenues. 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 and fiduciary 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. 56 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation (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 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 revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current 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, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current period. Only the portion of special assessments receivable due within the current 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. Description of Funds: Major Governmental Funds: General Fund—This fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Pavement Management Fund—This fund accounts for franchise taxes collected to fund expenditures for the ongoing maintenance and repair of the City streets. Proprietary Funds: Municipal Liquor Fund—This fund accounts for the operations of the City's off-sale liquor stores. Sewer Fund—This fund accounts for the sewer service charges which are used to finance the sanitary sewer system operating expenses. Garbage Fund—This fund accounts for the activities of the garbage and recycling collection programs. Storm Water Fund—This fund accounts for the activities of the storm water collection system. Electric Fund—This fund accounts for the activities of the electric distribution system. Water Fund—This fund accounts for the activities of the water distribution system. 57 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued) Description of Funds: (Continued) As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the City's utility functions and various other functions of the City. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. 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 City's Enterprise Funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The City also recognizes as operating revenue the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. 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 use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. D. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity 1. Deposits and Investments Cash and investments include balances from all funds that are combined and invested to the extent available in various securities as authorized by state law. Earnings from the pooled investments are allocated to the individual funds based on the average of month-end cash and investment balances. The City's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short- term investments with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Minnesota Statutes authorizes the City to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, agencies and instrumentalities, shares of investment companies whose only investments are in the aforementioned securities, obligations of the State of Minnesota or its municipalities, bankers'acceptances, future contracts, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and commercial paper of the highest quality with a maturity of no longer than 270 days and in the Minnesota Municipal Investment Pool. Certain investments for the City are reported at fair value as disclosed in Note 3. The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The Hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Leve12 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. 58 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Assets, Liabilities,Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) 1. Deposits and Investments (Continued) In accordance with GASB Statement No. 79, the Minnesota Municipal Investment Pool securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. There are no restrictions or limitations on withdrawals from the 4M Liquid Asset Fund. Investments in the 4M Plus must be deposited for a minimum of 14 calendar days. Withdrawals prior to the 14-day restriction period will be subject to a penalty equal to seven days interest on the amount withdrawn. Seven days' notice of redemption is required for withdrawals of investments in the 4M Term Series withdrawn prior to the maturity date of that series. A penalty could be assessed as necessary to recoup the Series for any charges, losses, and other costs attributable to the early redemption. 2. Receivables All trade and property tax receivables are shown at a gross amount since both are assessable to the property taxes and are collectible upon the sale of the property. The City Council annually adopts a tax levy and certifies it to the County in December for collection in the following year. The County is responsible for collecting all property taxes for the City. These taxes attach an enforceable lien on taxable property within the City on January 1 and are payable by the property owners in two installments. The taxes are collected by the County and tax settlements are made to the City during January, July, and December each year. The County Auditor submits the list of taxes and special assessments to be collected on each parcel of property to the County Treasurer in January of each year. Accounts receivable include amounts billed for services provided before year end. Unbilled utility enterprise fund receivables are also included for services provided in 2022. The City annually certifies delinquent accounts to the County for collection in the following year. Therefore, there has been no allowance for doubtful accounts established. Special assessments represent the financing for public improvements paid for by benefiting property owners. These assessments are recorded as receivable upon certification to the County. Special assessments are recognized as revenue when they are received in cash or within 60 days after year end. All governmental special assessments receivable are offset by a deferred inflow of resources in the fund financial statements unless related to unpaid charges and are due within one year. 3. Inventory and 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 recorded as an expenditure at the time of consumption. 59 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Assets, Liabilities,Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) 3. Inventory and Prepaid Items (Continued) Inventory is valued at cost using the first in, first out(FIFO) method. Inventories of enterprise funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. Property held for resale consists of property that the City and Housing and Redevelopment Authority component unit holds for resale. Properties held for resale are reported as an asset at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. 4. Capital Assets Capital assets, which include property,plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, sidewalks, and similar items), 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 cost of more than $10,000 and an estimated usefullife in excess of two years. In the case of initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by governmental activities) the City chose to include all items previously accounted for. The City had already accounted for its prior infrastructure at historical cost for the initial reporting of these assets. As the City constructs or acquires capital assets each period, including infrastructure assets, they are capitalized and reported at historical cost. The reported value excludes normal maintenance and repairs which are essentially amounts spent in relation to capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or extend its useful life beyond the original estimate. In the case of donations, the City values these capital assets at acquisition value of the item at the date of its donation. Property,plant, and equipment of the City, as well as the component unit, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following useful lives: Classification Years Buildings and improvements 10-40 Other park improvements 10-20 Machinery and equipment 3-20 Public domain infrastructure 15-50 System infrastructure 4-50 The City recognizes lease liabilities and intangible right-to-use lease assets (leased assets) in the government-wide financial statements. The City recognizes lease liabilities with an initial, individual value of$10,000 or more for equipment leases, and an initial, individual value of$25,000 or more property,plant and infrastructure leases. 60 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Assets, Liabilities,Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) 5. 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 represents a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until that time. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category. The City presents deferred outflows of resources on the Statement of Net Position for deferred outflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB for various estimate differences that will be amortized and recognized over future years. In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position and fund financial statements will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has four items that qualify for reporting in this category. The City presents deferred inflows of resources on the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet as unavailable revenue. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from three sources: property taxes, special assessments, and other. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. The City presents deferred inflows of resources on the Statement of Net Position for deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB for various estimate differences that will be amortized and recognized over future years. Deferred inflows of resources related to leases receivable is reported in both the government-wide Statement of Net Position, the Governmental Funds Balance Sheet, and the Proprietary Funds Statement of Net Position. 6. Compensated Absences It is the City's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits. Unused vacation can be accrued by the employees up to a maximum of 240 hours, the limit of which is determined by years of service. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. In the event a liability is recorded in the governmental funds, the General fund would be used to liquidate the compensated absences payable. Employees can also accrue an unlimited amount of unused sick leave. Employees with two or more years of service are entitled to receive severance pay equal to 50% of unused sick leave, up to a maximum of 480 hours. The liability for severance pay is accounted for the same as accrued vacation pay. 61 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Assets, Liabilities,Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) 7. Long-Term Obligations In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types 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 fund type Statement of Net Position. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond 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. 8. Pensions For purposes of ineasuring the net pension liability, net pension asset, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) and the relief association and additions to/deductions from PERA's and the relief association's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by PERA and the relief association except that 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. 9. Postemployment Benefits The City of Elk River and its discretely presented component unit provide a single employer defined benefit healthcare plan to eligible retirees and their spouses. The plan offers medical insurance benefits. The total OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and OPEB expense were measured actuarially in accordance with GASB Statement No. 75, based on entry age normal cost method. 10. Unearned Revenue Unearned revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Grants and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are also recorded as unearned revenue. 62 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) 11. Fund Balance In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report various levels of spending constraints. • Nonspendable Fund Balances—These are amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form as they are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact and include prepaid items, inventory, and advances to other funds. • Restricted Fund Balances—These are subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions. • Committed Fund Balances—The government's highest level of decision making authority is the City Council. The formal action to establish or modify a commitment is made through resolution. Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the City Council modifies or rescinds the commitment by resolution. • Assigned Fund Balances—Amounts constrained for specific purposes that are internally imposed. In governmental funds other than the General Fund, assigned fund balance represents all remaining amounts that are not classified as nonspendable and are neither restricted nor committed. The City Council has adopted a fund balance policy which delegates the authority to assign amounts for specific purposes to the City Administrator. • Minimum Fund Balance Policy—The City has formally adopted a fund balance policy for the General Fund. The City's policy is to maintain a minimum unassigned fund balance of 40-45% of budgeted operating expenditures for cash-flow timing needs. The City will spend restricted funds first for expenditures that meet the intended purpose before using unrestricted fund balance. Additionally, the City would first use committed, then assigned, and lastly unassigned amounts of unrestricted fund balance when expenditures are made for the purposes intended. E. Net Position Net position represents the difference between assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources in the government-wide financial statements. Net investment in capital assets, consists of capital assets, net accumulated depreciation,reduced by the outstanding balance of any long-term debt used to build or acquire the capital assets. Net position is reported as restricted in the government-wide financial statement when there are limitations on use through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments. F. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements. Estimates also affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenditures/expense during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 63 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 1 —SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) G. Budgetary Information Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Annual appropriated budgets are legally adopted for the General Fund and the Library, Multipurpose Facility, and Economic Development Authority special revenue funds. Project- length financial plans are adopted for all capital projects funds. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end. On or befare July 1 of each year, all departments and agencies of the City submit requests for appropriation to the City's administrator so that a budget may be prepared. Before September 30, the proposed budget is presented to the City Council for review and approval. The City Council holds public hearings and may add to, subtract from, or change appropriations. Any changes in the budget must be within the revenue and reserves estimated as available or the revenue estimates must be changed by an affirmative vote by a majority of the City Council. The budget is prepared by fund, function, and activity and includes information on the past year, current year estimates, and requested appropriations for the next fiscal year. Expenditures may not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level without Council approval. Spending control is established by the amount of expenditures budgeted for the fund,but management control is exercised at the department level. Reported budget amounts are as originally adopted or as amended by Council approved supplemental appropriations and budget transfers. NOTE 2 —STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY A. Deficit Fund Balances The following fund had a deficit fund balance at December 31, 2022: Fund Amount Nonmajor Capital Projects TIF Districts $ 1,450,432 The deficit will be funded with future transfers and tax increment revenue. NOTE 3 —DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS Cash balances of the City's funds that are intended to be invested on a long-term basis are combined (pooled) and invested to the extent available in various investments authorized by Minnesota Statutes. Each fund's portion of this pool (or pools) is displayed in the financial statements as "cash and investments". For purposes of identifying risk of investing public funds, the balances and related restrictions are summarized as follows. 64 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 3 —DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) A. Deposits Custodial Credit Risk—Deposits: This is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits may not be returned to it. The City (including Elk River Municipal Utilities) has an investment policy in place to address custodial credit risk for deposits, stating all deposits and investments must be in compliance with Minnesota Statutes 118A, with collateralization levels of 110% of the market value of the principal and accrued interest. As of December 31, 2022, the City's bank balance of$24,582,649 was not exposed to custodial credit risk because it was insured and fully collateralized by federal depository insurance and collateral pledged. The book balance as of December 31, 2022, was $25,621,047. Discretely P�esented Component Unit As of December 31, 2022, the HRA's bank balance of$794,556 was not exposed to custodial credit risk because it was fully collateralized. The HRA's book balance of all deposits at December 31, 2022, totaled$794,508. B.

As of December 31, 2022, the City had invested 5% or more of its total investment portfolio in one single issuer, the Minnesota Municipal Money Market(4M Fund). Credit Risk: Credit risk is the risk that an issuer to an investment will not fulfill its obligation. State law limits investments in state and local securities and commercial paper to those with specified rating by nationally recognized rating agencies. U.S. treasury obligations are not considered to have credit risk. The City's investment policy does not further limit the ratings of their investments. Interest Rate Risk: This is the risk that fair values of securities in a portfolio would decrease due to changes in fair value interest rates. The City's investment policy uses diversification of maturity dates as a means of managing exposure to fair value by stating that no more than 30% of the City's investments may extend beyond a five-year maturity. 65 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 3 —DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) B. Investments (Continued) Custodial Credit Risk—Investments: For an investment, this is the risk in the event of the failure of the counterparty the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The City typically limits its exposure by purchasing insured or registered investments, or by the control of who holds the securities. As of December 31, 2022, all investments were insured or registered, or securities were held by the City or its agent in the City's name. The City has the following recurring fair value measurements as of December 31, 2022: • Brokered certificates of deposit of$8,024,458, municipal bonds of$36,606,044, and government securities of$484,740 are valued using a matrix pricing model (Level 2 inputs) C.

The City obtains insurance through participation in the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT) which is a risk sharing pool with approximately 800 other governmental units. The City pays an annual premium to LMCIT for its workers compensation and property and casualty insurance. The LMCIT is self-sustaining through member premiums and will reinsure for claims above a prescribed dollar amount for each insurance event. Settled claims have not exceeded the City's coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. Liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities, if any, include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNRs). The City's management is not aware of any incurred but not reported claims. NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS The City participates in various pension plans. Total pension expense for the year ended December 31, 2022, was $3,823,673.

Coordinated Plan members are covered by Social Security. Public Employees Police and Fire Plan The Police and Fire Plan, 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, 1999, the Police and Fire Plan also covers police officers and firefighters belonging to local relief associations that elected to merge with and transfer assets and administration to PERA. 77 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) B. 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. 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. General Employees Plan Benefits General Employees Plan benefits are based on a member's highest average salary for any 5 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 Plan members. Members hired prior to July 1, 1989,receive the higher of Method 1 or Method 2 formulas. Only Method 2 is used for members hired after June 30, 1989. Under Method 1, the accrual rate for a Coordinated members is 1.2% for each of the first 10 years of service and 1.7% for each additional year. Under Method 2, the accrual rate for Coordinated members is 1.7% for all years 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. Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. The postretirement increase is equal to 50% of the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) announced by the SSA, with a minimum increase of at least 1% and a maximum of 1.5%. Recipients that have been receiving the annuity or benefit for at least a full year as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive the full increase. Recipients receiving the annuity or benefit for at least one month but less than a full year as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive a reduced prarated increase. For members retiring on January 1, 2024, or later, the increase will be delayed until normal retirement age (age 65 if hired prior to July 1, 1989, or age 66 for individuals hired on or after July 1, 1989). Members retiring under Rule of 90 are exempt from the delay to normal retirement. Police and Fire Plan Benefits Benefits for the Police and Fire Plan members first hired after June 30, 2010, but before July l, 2014, vest on a prorated basis from 50% after five years up to 100% after 10 years of credited service. Benefits for Police and Fire Plan members first hired after June 30, 2014, vest on a prorated basis from 50% after 10 years up to 100% after 20 years of credited service. The annuity accrual rate is 3% of average salary for each year of service. For Police and Fire Plan 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. 78 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) B.

Pension Costs (Continued) Police and Fire Fund Pension Costs At December 31, 2022, the City reported a liability of$14,260,210 for its proportionate share of the Police and Fire Fund's net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2022, 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 proportionate share 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, 2021, through June 30, 2022, relative to the total employer contributions received from all of PERA's participating employers. The City's proportionate share was 0.3277% at the end of the measurement period and 0.3115% for the beginning of the period. The State of Minnesota contributed$18 million to the Police and Fire Fund in the plan fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The contribution consisted of$9 million in direct state aid that does meet the definition of a special funding situation and$9 million in supplemental state aid that does not meet the definition of a special funding situation. The $9 million direct state aid was paid on October 1, 2021. Thereafter, by October 1 of each year, the State will pay $9 million to the Police and Fire Fund until full funding is reached or July 1, 2048, whichever is earlier. The $9 million in supplemental state aid will continue until the fund is 90% funded, or until the State Patrol Plan (administered by the Minnesota State Retirement System) is 90% funded, whichever occurs later. The State of Minnesota is included as a non-employer contributing entity in the Police and Fire Retirement Plan Schedule of Employer Allocations and Schedule of Pension Amounts by Employer (pension allocation schedules for the $9 million in direct state aid. Police and Fire Plan employers need to recognize their proportionate share of the State of Minnesota's pension expense (and grant revenue) under GASB 68 special funding situation accounting and financial reporting requirements. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the City recognized pension expense of$1,367,960 for its proportionate share of the Police and Fire Plan's pension expense. Included in this amount, the City recognized $120,833 as pension expense (and grant revenue) for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota's contribution of$9 million to the Police and Fire Fund. The State of Minnesota is not included as a non-employer contributing entity in the Police and Fire Pension Plan pension allocation schedules for the $9 million in supplemental state aid. The City also recognized$29,493 for the year ended December 31, 2022, as revenue and an offsetting reduction of the net pension liability for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota's on-behalf contributions to the Police and Fire Fund. 82 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) D.

Other amounts reported as deferred outflows and inflows of resources related to pensions will be recognized in pension expense as follows: Pension Year Ending Expense December 31, Amount 2023 $ 1,835,752 2024 1,856,683 2025 1,665,325 2026 2,945,629 2027 1,207,316 Total $ 9,510,705 83 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) E. Long-Term Expected Return on Investment 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: Long-Term Expected Real Asset Class Target Allocation Rate of Return Domestic equity 33.5 % 5.10 % International equity 16.5 5.30 Fixed income 25.0 0.75 Private markets 25.0 5.90 Total 100.0 % F. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions The total pension liability in the June 30, 2022, actuarial valuation was determined using an individual entry-age normal actuarial cost method. The long-term rate of return on pension plan investments used in the determination of the total liability is 6.5%. This assumption is based on a review of inflation and investments return assumptions from a number of national investment consulting firms. The review provided a range of return investment return rates deemed to be reasonable by the actuary. An investment return of 6.5% was deemed to be within that range of reasonableness for financial reporting purposes. Inflation is assumed to be 2.25% for the General Employees Plan and 2.25% for the Police and Fire Plan. Benefit increases after retirement are assumed to be 1.25% for the General Employees Plan. The Police and Fire Plan benefit increase is fixed at 1%per year and that increase was used in the valuation. Salary growth assumptions in the General Employees Plan range in annual increments from 10.25% after one year of service to 3.0% after 27 years of service. In the Police and Fire Plan, salary growth assumptions range from 11.75% after one year of service to 3.0% after 24 years of service. Mortality rates for the General Employees Plan are based on the Pub-2010 General Employee Mortality Table. Mortality rates for the Police and Fire Plan are based on the Pub-2010 Public Safety Employee Mortality tables. The tables are adjusted slightly to fit PERA's experience. 84 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) F. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions (Continued) Actuarial assumptions for the General Employees Plan are reviewed every four years. The most recent four-year experience study for the General Employees Plan was completed in 2019. The assumption changes were adopted by the Board and became effective with the July 1, 2020, actuarial valuation. The most recent four-year experience study for the Police and Fire Plan was completed in 2020 and was adopted by the Board and became effective with the July 1, 2021, actuarial valuation. The following changes in actuarial assumptions and plan provisions occurred in 2022: General Employees Fund Changes in Actuarial Assumptions • The mortality improvement scale was changed from scale MP-2020 to scale MP-2021. Changes in Plan Provisions • There have been no changes since the previous valuation. Police and Fire Fund Changes in Actuarial Assumptions • The mortality improvement scale was changed from MP-2020 to MP-2021. • The single discount rate was changed from 6.5% to 5.4%. Changes in Plan Provisions • There have been no changes since the previous valuation. G. Discount Rate The discount rate for the General Employees Plan used to measure the total pension liability in 2022 was 6.5%. 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 positions of the General Employees 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. 85 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees'Retirement Association (Continued) G. Discount Rate (Continued) In the Police and Fire Fund, the fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members through June 30, 2060. Beginning in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2061,projected benefit payments exceed the fund's projected fiduciary net position. Benefit payments projected after were discounted at the municipal bond rate of 3.69% (based on the weekly rate closest to but not later than the measurement date of the Fidelity "20-Year Municipal GO AA Index"). The resulting equivalent single discount rate of 5.4% for the Police and Fire Fund was determined to give approximately the same present value of projected benefits when applied to all years of projected benefits as the present value of projected benefits using 6.5% applied to all years of projected benefits through the point of asset depletion and 3.69% thereafter. H. Pension Liability Sensitivity The following presents the City's proportionate share of the net pension liability for all plans it participates in, calculated using the discount rate disclosed in the preceding paragraph, as well as what the City's proportionate share of the net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate 1 percentage point lower or 1 percentage point higher than the current discount rate: 1%Decrease in Current 1%Increase in Discount Rate Discount Rate Discount Rate (5.5%) (6.5%) (7.5%) City's proportionate share of the General Employees Fund net pension liability $ 20,191,313 $ 12,782,933 $ 6,706,918 1%Decrease in Current 1%Increase in Discount Rate Discount Rate Discount Rate (4.4%) (5.4%) (6.4%) City's proportionate share of the Police and Fire Fund net pension liability(asset) $ 21,580,998 $ 14,260,210 $ 8,341,790 I.

That report may be obtained on the Internet at www.mnpera.org. 86 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Public Employees Defined Contribution Plan (Defined Contribution Plan) Three council members of the City of Elk River are covered by the Defined Contribution Plan, a multiple-employer deferred compensation plan administered by PERA. The Defined Contribution Plan 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. The defined contribution plan consists of individual accounts paying a lump-sum benefit. Plan benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment earnings, less administrative expenses; therefore, there is no future liability to the City. 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 who decides to participate contributes 5% of salary which is matched by the elected official's employer. Far ambulance service personnel, employer contributions are determined by the employer, and for salaried employees 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% (.25%) of the assets in each member's account annually. Pension expense for the year is equal to the contributions made. Total contributions made by the City during fiscal year 2022 were: Contribution Amount Percentage of Covered Payrol1 Employee Employer Employee Employer Required Rate $ 1,200 $ 1,200 5% 5% 5% Defined Benefit Pension Plan—Volunteer Firefighter's Relief Association A. Plan Description The Elk River Firefighter's Relief Association is the administrator of a single employer de�ned benefit pension plan established to provide benefits for members of the Elk River Fire Department per Minnesota State Statutes. B. Benefits Provided Volunteer firefighters of the City are members of the Elk River Firefighter's Relief Association. Full retirement benefits are payable to members who have reached age 50 and have completed 20 years of service for lump sum service pensions. Partial benefits are payable to members who have reached 50 and have completed 5 years of service. Disability benefits and widow and children's survivor benefits are also payable to members, or their beneficiaries based upon requirements set forth in the bylaws. These benefit provisions and all other requirements are consistent with enabling state statutes. 87 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Defined Benefit Pension Plan—Volunteer Firefighter's Relief Association C. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms At December 31, 2020, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms: Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefit payments 8 Active employees 43 Total 51 D. Contributions. Minnesota Statutes Chapter 424A.092 specifies minimum support rates required on an annual basis. The minimum support rates from the municipality and from State aids are determined as the amount required to meet the normal cost plus amortizing any existing prior service costs over a ten year period. The City's obligation is the financial requirement for the year less state aids. Any additional payments by the City shall be used to amortize the unfunded liability of the relief association. The Association is comprised of volunteers: therefore, there are no payroll expenditures (i.e., there are no covered payroll percentage calculations). During the year, the City recognized as revenue and as an expenditure on behalf payment of$252,658 made by the State of Minnesota for the Relief Association. E. Net Pension Liability The City's net pension liability was measured as of December 31, 2021, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The total pension liability in the December 31, 2021, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement: Inflation 2.25 % Per year Discount rate 5.00 % Per year Investment rate of return 5.00 % The demographic assumption of mortality is based on the rates use in the July 1, 2020, Minnesota PERA Police & Fire Plan actuarial valuation as described below. Healthy Pre-retirement: Pub-2010 Public Safety Employee mortality tables with projected mortality improvements based on scale MP-2020. Healthy Post-retirement: Pub-2010 Healthy Retired Public Safety mortality tables with projected mortality improvements based on scale MP-2020 with male rates being adjusted by a factor of 0.98. 88 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Defined Benefit Pension Plan—Volunteer Firefighter's Relief Association (Continued) E. Net Pension Liability (Continued) Disabled: Pub-2010 Public Safety Disabled Retiree mortality tables with projected mortality improvements based on scale MP-2020. Male rates are adjusted by a factor of 1.05. The 5.00% long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best estimates far expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of inflation) were developed for each asset class using the plan's target investment allocation along with long-term return expectations by asset class. Inflation expectations were applied to derive the nominal rate of return for the portfolio. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the pension plan's target asset allocation as of the measurement date are summarized in the table below. Long-Term Expected Real Asset Class Target Allocation Rate of Return Domestic equity 32.0 % 4.90 % International equity 23.0 5.32 Fixed income 25.0 1.40 Real estate and alternatives 5.0 4.43 Cash and equivalents 15.0 0.09 Total 100.0 % The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 5.00%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions to the plan will be made as specified in statute. Based on that assumption and considering the funding ratio of the plan, the fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of proj ected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability. 89 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 12 —PENSION PLANS (CONTINUED) Defined Benefit Pension Plan—Volunteer Firefighter's Relief Association (Continued) F.

Plan Description The City provides other postemployment health insurance benefits for retired employees through a defined benefit plan: Municipal Retirees Health Plan (MRHP), a single employer defined benefit healthcare plan. The plan provides benefits for eligible retirees and their dependents through the City's group health insurance plans, which cover both active and retired members. Since the premium is a blended rate determined on the active and retiree population, the retirees are receiving an implicit rate subsidy. The MRHP does not issue publicly available financial reports. Elk River Municipal Utilities has switched to age-based medical premiums and no longer has an OPEB liability. Since medical premiums are age-based, the premiums are equal to the expected true cost of retiree coverage. As a result, there is no implicit subsidy for these benefits. There is also no explicit subsidy since retirees must pay the full premium to remain covered during retirement. B. Funding Policy Contribution requirements are reviewed at the time changes are made to the plans. Benefit provisions for MRHP are established and amended by the City. Eligible retirees receiving benefits are required to pay 100% of the total premium. 92 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 13 —POST EMPLOYMENT HEALTH CARE PLAN (CONTINUED) C.

Actuarial Assumptions The total OPEB liability was determined by an actuarial valuation measured as of January 1, 2022, using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified: Key Methods and Assumptions Used in Valuation of Total OPEB Liability Discount rate 2.00% Salary increases Service graded table Inflation 2.00% Medical trend rate 6.25%in 2022, grading to 5.00% over 5 years and then to 4.00% over the next 48 years Mortality assumption Pub-2010 Public Retirement Plans Headcount-Weighted Mortality Tables (General, Safety)with MP-2020 Generational Improvement Scale The actuarial assumptions used in the December 31, 2022, valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. The discount rate used to measure the total OPEB liability was 2.00%based on 20-year municipal bond rates. E. Total OPEB Liability The City's total OPEB liability of$902,334 was measured as of January 1, 2022, and was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. 93 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 13 —POST EMPLOYMENT HEALTH CARE PLAN (CONTINUED) E.

Commitments The Utilities entered into an agreement in 2007 with Central Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (CMMPA) to acquire an interest in the CAPX Initiative Brookings Project, a power transmission line in Minnesota. The project is a 250-mile, 345 kV AC transmission line with a rating of 2,300 MW, between Brookings, South Dakota, and the Southeast Twin Cities. In 2011, there was increased opportunity for investment, and subsequent agreements provide the Utilities with an ownership share of$5.6 million or 18.89%. Revenues have been less than originally projected due to the decrease in Rate of Return (ROE) issued by FERC. The original ROE 12.38% has been reduced to 10.52% on this investment through CMMPA is designed to provide approximately $80K annually over the 40-year project life. With majority of the distribution once the bonds are paid off, the projected over recovery in 2022 is estimated to be $25K. The bond obligations are satisfied first, distribution to participants is directly affected by under recovery. The over recovery is rolled forward under the true up. However, the over recovery in 2022 (approximately $25K) would be included in the revenue requirements in 2024. The transmission payments for 2022 were $78,165, all of which was a receivable at December 31, 2022. B. Contingent Liabilities Amounts received or receivable from grant agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies,principally the federal government. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The amount, if any, of expenditures that may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time, although the government expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial. 96 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 14—COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES (CONTINUED) B. Contingent Liabilities (Continued) 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. The City's management is not aware of any instances of noncompliance which would have a material effect on the financial statements. NOTE 15—TAX ABATEMENTS The City of Elk River has established a tax abatement program pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 469.1812 through 469.1815. As part of the City's program the City enters into agreements through the use of tax increment financing districts under Minnesota Statutes Section 469.174 to 469.179 (the Tax Increment Act). Under these statutes, the City annually abates taxes collected above the district's base tax capacity which is established during adoption of the tax increment district. These agreements are established to foster economic development and redevelopment through creating jobs, removing blight, and providing affordable housing. For fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, the City has four agreements established under Minnesota Statutes Section 469.174 to 469.179 which resulted in property taxes totaling $333,757 being abated. Individual abatement payments which constituted more than 1% of the City's 2022 tax levy include: • A pay-as-you-go note resulting in an abatement amount of$165,085, for a financial institution. As part of the City's tax abatement program, the City also enters into agreements with local businesses in the form of business subsidy agreements established under Minnesota Statutes Section 116J.993 through 116J.995. These agreements must meet a public purpose which may include, but may not be limited to, increasing the tax base. In 2021, the City of Elk River had four business subsidy agreements in place which resulted in property taxes totaling $94,212 being abated. Individual agreements which result in taxes abated in excess of 1% of the City's total tax levy would be disclosed individually. There were no such payments made in 2022 in excess of this amount. NOTE 16—CONDUIT DEBT From time-to-time, the City has issued revenue bonds to provide financial assistance to private-sector entities for the acquisition and construction of industrial and commercial, multi-family and educational facilities deemed to be in the public interest.

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, 2022, there was one series of revenue bonds outstanding, with a principal payable amount of$2,840,000. 97 City of Elk River Notes to Basic Financial Statements NOTE 17—OTHER INFORMATION A. Territorial Acquisition Agreement In 2015, the Utilities entered into an agreement to transfer ownership of electric plant and electric service to customers in eight designated areas receiving service from Connexus Energy. Specific payment terms have been negotiated for five years, and if any of the eight areas are not acquired within this timeframe, the payment terms may be renegotiated. In 2019, the Utilities acquired the final service areas. The agreed cost of property purchased from Connexus Energy is net book value, integration expenses, and a loss of revenue payment. The loss of revenue payment for each area acquired is based on a formula outlined in the agreement, payable for the subsequent ten years after initial purchase. The Utilities acquired designated service area one in 2015 for $877,807, service area two in 2016 far $663,586, service areas three and four in 2017 for$276,776, service areas five and six in 2018 for $298,736 and service areas seven and eight in 2019 far $78,457.

Joint Ventures The City has agreements with government and other entities which provide reduced costs,better service, and additional benefits to the participants. In 2007, the City and neighboring municipalities formed the Sherburne/Wright Cable Communications Commission (the Commission). The purpose of the organization is to monitor the operation and activities of cable communications of the member municipalities. The Commission also provides coordination, administration, and enforcement of the franchises for the cable communication system. The City has no ongoing financial interest or responsibility with regards to the Cable Commission. Financial statements for the Commission can be obtained by writing to: Sherburne/Wright Cable Communications Commission at 444 Cedar Street, Suite 950, St. Paul, Minnesota 55101. C. Segment Information The City maintains six enterprise funds that account for the municipal liquor operations, garbage collections, sewer, storm water, water, and electric utilities. The City considers each of its enterprise funds to be a segment. Since the required segment information is already included in the City's proprietary funds' balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position balance, this information has not been repeated in the notes to the basic financial statements.

Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of the county's and school district's taxable market value that is within the ciry's boundaries and dividing it by the county's and school district's total taxable market value. Z Excludes debt payable from enterprise revenue. Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide,at least in part,with the geographic boundaries of the city. This schedule estimates the partion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and business of the City of Elk River. 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 far repaying the debt of each overlapping government.
