June 22, 2023
To the Citizens of the City of Florida City, Florida (the "City")
and Other Interested Parties:
State law requires that all general purpose local governments publish within nine months of the
close of each fiscal year a complete set of financial statements presented in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (GAAP) and audited in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards and government auditing standards by a firm of
licensed certified public accountants. Additionally, the City's charter requires an annual
independent audit of the books of account, financial records and transactions of all departments
of the City by independent certified public accountants. Pursuant to these requirements, we
hereby issue the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2022.
This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City.
Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all
of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these
representations, management of the City has established a comprehensive internal control
framework that is designed both to protect the City's assets from loss, theft or misuse and to
compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City's financial statements in
conformity with GAAP. Since the cost of internal controls should not outweigh the benefits
derived, the City's comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide
reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material
misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this
financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.
The City's financial statements have been audited by Marcum LLp, a licensed certified public
accounting firm. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the
City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 are free of material
misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement
preparation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon their audit, that there was a
reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City's financial statements for the
fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The
independent auditors' report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this
report.
i
To the Citizens of the City of Florida City, Florida
and Other Interested Parties:
June 22, 2023
GAAP requires that management 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
auditors' report.
Profile of the Government
The City is the southernmost city on the mainland of Florida befare reaching the Florida Keys. It
has traditionally been primarily agricultural, but recent new development is bringing far more
residential communities and is, therefore, changing the landscape of the City. Through
annexation, the City is preparing to triple its size geographically. The City is currently about 3
square miles, but will become much larger if current annexation requests are approved by
Miami-Dade County.
The City was incorporated in 1914 and operates under the Strong Mayor/Commission form of
government. The City Commission is comprised of the Mayor and four Commissioners elected
city-wide. The Mayor's term is for four years and the commissioner's term is for four years. The
City Commission is responsible for enacting laws (resolutions, ordinances and regulations)
governing the City as well as appointing the members of various advisory boards and the City
Attorney. As chief executive officer of the City, the Mayor also serves as the chief administrative
officer. The Mayor is responsible for enforcement of laws and appoints and supervises
department heads. The Police Chief and the Finance Director(CFO) are appointed by the Mayor
with the consent of the City Commission.
In addition to providing residents with public safety, general government, leisure and public
works type services, the City provides water, sewer, sanitation, a recycling program and
recreational facilities and activities.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City's financial planning and control. All
departments of the City are required to submit proposed budgets to the Mayor, who then makes
any necessary revisions. The Mayor then presents to the City Commission, for their review, a
budget estimate of the revenues and expenditures of all the City's departments. Two public
hearings are then conducted to inform the taxpayers of the proposed budget and to receive their
comments. A majority affirmative vote of the commission quorum is needed to adopt the
budget, which is legally enacted prior to October lst by the passage of a Resolution. The City's
budget is approved at the department level. The Mayor and Finance Director may amend the
adopted budget for adjustments within a department administratively, but the City Commission
must approve all budget adjustments that exceed or are less than originally budgeted.
Supplemental appropriations of revenues and expenditures and budget adjustments are typically
approved by the City Commission during the last quarter of the fiscal year. There were budgetary
amendments for the 2021-2022 fiscal year. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in this
report for the general fund and the community redevelopment agency (CRA) for which an
appropriated annual budget has been adopted.

Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood when it is
considered from the broader perspective of the specific environment within which the City
operates.
Local Economy
The City's positioning for progress is undoubtedly ensured for periods that extend far beyond the
period of time the City has rebuilt itself from Hurricane Andrew in 1992. Its geographic location,
southern end of the Florida Turnpike, U.S. Route #1, Everglades National Park to its west and
Biscayne National Park to its east, brings over 3 million visitors every year. The transportation
system is excellent including a busway completed in Florida City, the Florida Turnpike and U.S.
Route #1 access to the airport and other fine communities north of the City, including the
metropolitan Miami area.
Essential to its progress, the City has a pro-business attitude towards developers, builders,
contractors and others in the private sector. The City's comprehensive plan and zoning
regulations provide a balanced land use plan for the orderly development of commercial,
residential, and recreational development.
The City's millage rate is 72946 for the 2021-2022 fiscal year. As a financial policy, the City
engages in cost cutting measures to reduce the need to spend any fund balance. This policy has
allowed the City to have the funds necessary to spend in the event of a natural disaster.
Long-Term Financial Planning and Major Initiatives
The City is working diligently to annex additional land to expand our boundaries. This will
provide space for planned residential and commercial expansion. New parks are being developed
to provide additional open space and leisure activities for the anticipated addition to our
population. A gymnasium was constructed for our children to enjoy.
During fiscal year 2022, construction of the culvert in the Florida City Canal between US 1 and
SW 172 Ave continued. The project consists of the widening of SW 344th Street between US 1
to SW 172"d Avenue to accommodate the addition of eastbound and westbound traffic lanes. In
addition to the construction of a fully enclosed culvert for the Florida City Canal, this project
includes roadway reconstruction, widening, repaving, and the building of a new curb and gutters.
The project also comprises of improvements to signalization and lighting as well as the creation
of new sidewalks and driveways. Additionally, during this fiscal year, the City received a grant
of$16.1 million to continue the culvert and continuing to widen SW 344th Street.
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus outbreak
(COVID-19) a "Public Health Emergency of International Concern" and on March 11, 2020,
declared COVID-19 a pandemic. The impact of COVID-19 negatively impacted the City's

operations, suppliers or other vendars, and customer base. Quarantines, labor shortages and other
disruptions to the City's operations, and to the customers and residents, has adversely impacted
the City's revenues, ability to provide its services and operating results. In addition, the
significant outbreak of this pandemic resulted in a widespread health crisis that adversely
affected the economies and financial markets of many countries, including the geographical area
in which the City operates. The extent of the coronavirus impact is still ongoing, and will likely
continue for the foreseeable future. The City's pro-business attitude, leading to residential and
commercial development, has allowed it to sustain thus far, when otherwise the results could
have been more detrimental to its' operations.
Cash Management Policies and Practices
The City attempts to invest operating funds in an effort to earn a reasonable yield on its portfolio.
This is consistent with the City's primary objective of safeguarding public assets by minimizing
the level of credit and market risks assumed. The investment priority is safety of capital, liquidity
of funds and investment income, in that order. To that end, the City's investments are guided by
a detailed investment policy which is reviewed annually to determine if any changes may be
required. When fiscally responsible, the City also invests in negotiable certificates of deposit.
Pension Benefits
The City maintains a single-employer defined benefit pension plan for its police officers. An
independent actuary is engaged by the pension plan to calculate the amount of the annual
contribution the City must make to ensure that the plan will be able to fully meet its obligations
to retired employees in a timely manner. As a matter of policy, the City funds the required
contribution to the pension plan as determined by the actuary. This is accounted for in the police
pension trust fund. On May 1, 2008, the City and police officers had agreed to enter the Florida
Retirement System (FRS) and a replacement plan was adopted to protect the participants' assets.
On February 1, 2009, a new pension plan was adopted with FRS for all autharized general and
teamsters' employees. The FRS pension plan is a cost-sharing multiple employer defined benefit
plan. The FRS funding policy provides for monthly employer contributions at actuarially
determined rates that, expressed as percentages of annual covered payroll along with a required
3% employee contribution. In addition to the defined benefit pension plan for police officers, the
City maintains a defined contribution pension plan for its general employees created in
accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 403(b).
The City further maintains a single-employer defined benefit pension plan for its elected
officials. An independent actuary is retained by the pension plan to calculate the amount of the
annual contribution the City must make to ensure the plan will be able to fully meet its
obligations to retired elected officials in a timely manner. For the fiscal year ending September
30, 2022, the City contributed$78,886 to make the plan actuarially sound.

Awards and Acknowledgments
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
Florida City for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended September
30, 202 L This was the twenty-fifth consecutive year that the government has achieved this
prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must
publish an easily readable and efficiently arganized ACFR. This report must satisfy both GAAP
and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current
ACFR continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program's requirements and we are
submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
The presentation of the ACFR on a timely basis was made possible by the dedicated service of
the entire staff of the Finance Department. Each member of the department has our sincere
appreciation for the contributions made in preparation of this report. We also wish to recognize
the assistance provided by the firm of Marcum LLP.
In closing, without the leadership and support of the Mayor and the City Commissioners,
preparation of this report would not have been possible.
Sincerely,

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and City Commission
City of Florida City, Florida
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Florida
City, Florida (the "City"), as of and far the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, and the related
notes to the financial statements,which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements
as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects,the respective financial position of the governmental activities,the business-type
activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of
September 30, 2022, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash
flows, thereof for the fiscal year then ended in accardance 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
(Government Auditing Standa�ds). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described
in the Auditors' 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.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
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.

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 twelve months beyond the financial statement date,
including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditors'Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our obj ectives 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 auditors' 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.
2
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management's discussion and analysis on pages 5 through 14,the budgetary comparison schedules
and related notes on pages 83 to 85, and the information for the pensions and OPEB on pages 86
to 94, 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 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 GAAS, 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's basic financial statements. The combining fund financial
statements are presented for 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 combining financial statements are 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 report. The other
information comprises the introductory and statistical section but does not include the basic
financial statements and our auditors' 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.
3
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
June 22,2023, on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on our
tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements
and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal
control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an
opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.
That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing
Standa�ds in considering City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(MD&A)
CITY OF FLORIDA CITY, FLORIDA
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the City of Florida City,Florida(the"City")we offer readers of the City's financial
statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City far the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2022.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The assets plus deferred outflows of the City exceeded its liabilities plus deferred inflows at the close
of the most recent fiscal year by$83,786,181 (net position). Of this amount, $20,696,270(unrestricted
net position)may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
In the government-wide financial statements, the City's total net position increased by $9,541,404.
This increase is attributable to an increase of commercial and residential development, the reflection
of property taxes attributable to our Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) of$2,481,107, and
the sale of our Campersite property.
For the fiscal year ended September 30,2022,the City's governmental funds reported combined ending
fund balances of $44,146,732. This represents an increase of $12,871,702 from last year. This is
primarily due to an increase of commercial and residential development,and the sale of our Campersite
property.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance for the General Fund was $25,981,615
or 169% of total general fund expenditures.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial
statements. The City's basic financial statements comprise three components; (1) government-wide
financial statements, (2)fund financial statements and(3)notes to the basic financial statements. This
report also contains required and other supplementary information in addition to the basic �nancial
statements themselves.
Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of
the City's �nances, in a manner similar to a private sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all the City's assets, liabilities and deferred
inflows and outflows of resources, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over
time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial
position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information on 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 wi11 result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g.,
uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
5
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally
supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues(governmental activities)from other functions that
are intended to recover all ar a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges(business-
type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public works,
public safety and parks and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include a Water and
Sewer Utility.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the primary
government),but also a legally separate CRA for which the City is financially accountable. The CRA
is reported as a blended component unit of the City and therefore part of the financial information
presented for the primary government. Separate disclosure of the CRA activities is presented in the
Notes to Basic Financial Statements.
The government-wide�nancial statements can be found on pages 15 through 16 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. The
City has three (3) fund categories; governmental funds, a proprietary fund and a fiduciary fund.
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, the governmental fund financial statement focuses 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.
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 the governmental funds with similar
information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By
doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City's near-term financing
decisions. Both the governmental funds balance sheet and the governmental funds statement of
revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this
comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City of Florida City maintains six (6) governmental funds; the General Fund, CRA and Grants
funds are presented as major funds with the two (2) other governmental funds combined into a single
aggregated presentation. The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund and for
the CRA Fund. Budgetary comparison schedules have been provided for the General Fund and the
CRA Fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget. These schedules can be found on pages 83
and 85.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 17 through 20.
6
Proprietary Funds
The City maintains one type of proprietary fund.Enterprise funds are used to repart the same functions
presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses an
enterprise fund to account for its Water and Sewer Operation.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 21 through 23.
Fiduciary Funds
Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the City.
Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of
those funds are not available to support the City's own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary
funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The City maintains two fiduciary funds, one for the
operation of its Police Of�cers' Substitute Pension Trust Fund and one to report the Elected Officials
Retirement Plan.
The basic fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 24 through 25.
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 the basic financial statements can be found on pages 26 through 82.
Other Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain
required supplementary information concerning the City's progress in funding its obligation to provide
pension benefits and other post-employment benefits (OPEB) to its employees, as well as budgetary
comparison schedules.
This required supplementary information can be found on pages 83 through 94.
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 plus deferred outflows exceeded liabilities plus deferred inflows
by $83,786,181 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.
A portion of the City's net position, $41,611,247 or 50%, reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g.,
land, buildings, machinery and equipment) less any related debt to acquire those assets that is still
outstanding including retainage. 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
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.
A summary of the City's net position is presented in Table 1 and a summary of the changes in net
position is presented in Table 2.

The City's net position increased by $9,541,404 from 2021 due primarily an increase of commercial
and residential development, the reflection of property taxes attributable to our CRA, and the sale of
our Campersite property. This increase is illustrated in the summary above.
Governmental Activities
Net position of the City's governmental activities increased by$10,243,707 or 19.4%from$52,797,197 in
the last fiscal year to $63,040,904 in the current fiscal year. This is primarily due to an increase of
commercial and residential development and the sale of our Campersite property.
General government,public works and public safety comprise almost 97%of the City's total governmental
activities. General government program revenues fund over 60% of its activities. Public works program
revenues fund more than 88%of its activities while public safety program revenues fund more than 17%.
General revenues,primarily property taxes, fund the balance of these activities, as well as those for Parks
&Recreation.
Program revenues, comprised of charges for services, and operating and capital grants and contributions
amounts total $8,250,019; the governmental activities general revenues total $18,164,942. While the City
has a growing property tax base, the use on grant funds is still important to meeting citizens' demand for
services. Property taxes,which represent about 32%of total revenues for governmental activities,are non-
program specific and are used to fund all activities not covered by program revenues. Property tax revenue
for the City,not including that which is related to the CRA,increased by$425,608 between 2021 and 2022.
The millage rate far fiscal year 2022 was 7.2946.

Business-type Activities
Business-type activities decreased the City's net position by $702,303 since 2021.
The City maintains a water and sewer fund that accounts far this change to net position. Operating
expenses were more than charges for services by $705,362. $5,372 was realized as a result of
unrestricted investment earnings. Program revenues decreased between 2021 and 2022 by $500,443.
EXpenses increased by $308,177.
The decrease of revenue, between fiscal year 2021 and 2022, came primarily as a result of less meter
installations via residential and commercial development than the previous year.
Governmental Funds
The focus of the City of Florida 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.
At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance of the General Fund was $31,770,091, an increase
of$8,195,839 in comparison with the prior year. This is primarily due to an increase of commercial
and residential development and the sale of our Campersite property.
The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. As a measure of the general fund's liquidity
it may be useful to compare total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Total unassigned fund
balance represents 169% of total general fund expenditures.
At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance of the CRA Fund was $10,650,743, an increase of
$4,250,287 in comparison with the prior year. This is primarily due to proceeds on sale of capital assets
of$2,633,236 which pertained to the sale of various lots of land in the current year.
At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance of the Grants Fund was $1,206,064, an increase of
$454,470 in comparison with the prior year. This is primarily due to the$750,000 revenue recognition,
related to the grant to improve the parking at Laren Roberts Park.
A summary of the general fund's condensed balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures and
changes in fund balance is presented in Table 3 and 4 for September 30, 2022 and 2021, as follows:

Economic Factors and Next Year's Budget and Rates
Given the residential and commercial development within the City, the City anticipates there will be a
relatively low unemployment rate.
Additionally, the occupancy rate of the hospitality service industry in Southern Miami-Dade County
experienced an increase this fiscal year. We anticipate a continued increase in this rate, as we continue
to move further past the COVID-19 pandemic.
Inflationary trends in the region compare similarly to national indices.
The City's rates for water and sewer fees continue to be reviewed with an eye towards increasing the
rates to improve the debt service coverage ratio and provide additional funds for renewal and
replacement of infrastructure. However, due to COVID-19, and the spike in development, the City
doesn't foresee increasing its' rates independent of external agencies, in the short-term.
There were funds budgeted or appropriated from unrestricted net position (unassigned fund balance)
for the fiscal year September 30, 2023 budget for the general fund, in anticipation for an increase in
commercial and residential development.
The millage rate was 7.2946 for fiscal year 2022 and 6.9299 for fiscal year 2023.
All of these factors were considered in preparing the City's budget for the 2022-2023 fiscal year.

IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTNITIES
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,2022
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities
are different because:
Net change in fund balances-total governmental funds $12,871,702
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However,in the
statement of activities,the cost of those assets is depreciated over
their estimated useful lives:
Expenditures for capital assets $ 1,488,211
Less current year depreciation expense (1,076,291) 411,920
In the statement of activities,only the gain or loss on the sale of capital assets
is reported,whereas in the governmental funds the proceeds from the sale
increases financial resources. The change in net position differs from the
change in fund balance by the net book value of the assets retired. (3,139,405)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities are not reported in the
governmental funds because they have no effect on current financial resources:
Compensated absences (1,555)
Other postemployment benefits (22,668)
Pension expense 341,213 316,990
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in the governmental funds,
revenues are not recognized until funds are measurable and available to
finance current expenditures.In the statement of activities;however,which is
presented on the accrual basis,revenues are reported when earned. (217,500)

CITY OF FLORIDA CITY, FLORIDA
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022
NOTE 1-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Florida City(the"City"),located in Miami-Dade County,Florida(the"County")
is a political subdivision of the State of Florida. The City, which was created by the Florida
Legislature, was incorporated in 1915. The City operates under a Strong-Mayor form of
government and provides the following services as authorized by its charter; public safety,
water and sewer, sanitation, culture recreation,public works and improvements,planning and
zoning, highways and streets, and general administrative services. The City does not provide
any educational facilities or fire services; those services are provided by the Miami-Dade
County School Board and the County,respectively.
The financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") as applied to
governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ("GASB") is the
accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial
reporting principles. The more significant accounting policies of the City are described
below:
A. FINANCIALREPORTINGENTITY
Under governmental accounting and financial reporting standards, the City's reporting entity
consists of the City, organizations for which the City 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 City is considered financially accountable if it appoints a voting majority of
an organization's governing body and is either able to impose its will on that organization, or
has a financial benefit/burden relationship with the organization. The City may also be
financially accountable if an organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government
and the two also have a financial benefit or burden relationship.
Component units are included in the reporting entity either as blended or as discretely
presented. Blended component units, although legally separate entities, are,in substance,part
of the City's operations. Accordingly, data from these component units are combined with
data of the primary government. The City has met the criteria as having the operational and
financial responsibilities as noted above for the blended component units listed below and
these entities have been included in the City's financial reporting entity.
(i) The Florida City Community Redevelopment Agency (the "CRA") was created
under the Community Redevelopment Act of 1969, enacted by Florida Legislature.
The CRA's board of directors is the City Commission. The CRA's executive director
is the City's Mayor. The City has operational responsibility for the CRA. The CRA
has a September 30th year end and is presented as a major fund. Pursuant section
163.387(8) of the Florida Statutes, the CRA also issues its own stand-alone financial
statements.

A, FINANCIAL REPORTINGENTITY(CONTINUED�
(ii) The Florida City Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation") is a nonprofit (501(c)(3))
organization. The Foundation accepts charitable contributions,which are used to pay
for activities and other items to benefit the citizens of the City. The City Commission
serves as the board of the Foundation. The City has operational responsibility for the
Foundation. The Foundation,which is presented as a nonmajor fund,has a December
31 st year end and therefore the amounts presented for the Foundation are as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2021.
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 non-fiduciary activities of the City.
For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements
with the exception of interfund services provided and used which are not eliminated.
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 ar segment are offset by program revenues.Direct expenses are those that are clearly
identifiable with a specific function or segment. 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.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and
fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial
statements. Major individual governmental funds and the major enterprise fund are reported
as separate columns in the fund financial statements. All remaining nonmajor governmental
funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor governmental funds.

NOTE 1-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES(CONTINUED�
C. MEASUREMENTFOCUS,BASIS OFACCOUNTING,AND FINANCIAL ST.4TEMENT
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.
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 fiscal period. Expenditures 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 fees and other taxes, licenses, rent, and interest associated with the
current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been
recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Revenues for expenditure driven grants
are recognized when the qualifying expenditures are incurred. All other revenue items are
considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the City.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the 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.
The Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) was created to promote economic
development for local businesses and for new businesses. This fund is used to account for
monies received from Tax Increment Financing (TIF) from the City and Miami-Dade
County for use in the area designated as the CRA.
The Grants Fund accounts for all grant monies and the related program income from
federal, state, and local grants received.

The City reports the following major proprietary fund in the basic financial statements:
The Water and Sewer Fund accounts for activities of providing water and sewer services
to the public.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund type:
The Fiduciary Funds are used to account for the City's single-employer defined benefit
pension plans covering substantially all of its police officers and elected officials.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-
wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are payments-in-lieu of taxes and
other charges between the City's various 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.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for
goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital
grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues
rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Proprietary funds distinguish opeNating revenues and expenses from non-operating 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 water and sewer fund are charges to customers for
services. Operating expenses for the enterprise fund includes the costs of services,
administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not

1. Deposits and Investments
The City's cash represents cash deposits. The City's investment in Florida PRIME (external
investment pool) is recorded at amortized cost. All other investments are reported at fair
value.
The nature of investments of the City are governed by the provisions of Florida Statutes
Section 218. Under this statute, authorized investments are limited, unless otherwise
authorized by law or resolution/ordinance.
Investments in the Police Officers' Substitute Pension Trust Fund and the Elected Officials
Retirement Plan are governed by their respective investment policy and Florida Statutes
Section 112.661.
2. Receivables and Payables
Activity between funds that are representative of current lending/borrowing arrangements
outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as "due to/from other funds". Any
residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type
activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as "internal balances".
3. Prepaids
Prepaids represent goods and services which are paid for in one period, but benefit a future
period. Prepaids are recorded as an expenditure/expense in the fund level and government-
wide financial statements in the period benefited. Prepaids for governmental fund types are
reported as an asset of the fund with a corresponding amount recorded as non-spendable fund
balance.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant and equipment, intangibles and certain
infrastructure assets (e.g., streets, alleys, sidewalks, drainage, lighting systems, and similar
items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the
government-wide financial statements. The City did not retroactively report infrastructure
assets. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost of more
than $5,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at
historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets
are recarded at acquisition value at the date of donation.

4. Capital Assets (continued)
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or
materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and
improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed.
The City records impairment losses on long-lived assets used in operations when events and
circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired. No impairment losses have been
recorded.
Capital assets of the City are depreciated using the straight line method over the following
estimated useful lives:
Assets Years
Buildings 10-50
Equipment and Machinery 3-5
Plant Distribution System 25-50
5. Compensated Absences
City employees are granted vacation and sick pay leave in varying amounts based on length
of service and the department in which the employee provides service. It is the City's policy
to permit full-time employees to accumulate limited amounts of earned vacation leave and a
limited amount of earned sick pay.Upon separation from service,employees receive payment
for all unused vacation leave and 50% of unused sick leave for general employees and 75%
of unused sick leave for police officers.In the governmental funds, a liability is recorded only
for vacation and sick leave payouts for employees that resigned or terminated prior to fiscal
year end and were subsequently paid with current available financial resources from the
general fund.
6. 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 amortization method. The results of using this method
do not differ significantly from the effective interest method. Issuance costs are expensed in
the year incurred.Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount.

RESOURCES,FUND BALANCE/NET POSITION�CONTINUED�
6. Long-Term Obligations (continued)
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 in the year incurred.
7. Net Position
Net position of the government-wide and proprietary funds are categorized as net investment
in capital assets, restricted or unrestricted. Net investment in capital assets is that portion of
net position that relates to the City's capital assets reduced by accumulated depreciation,
deferred outflows or inflows related to debt, retainage payable and by any outstanding debt
incurred to acquire, construct or improve those assets, excluding unspent proceeds.
Restricted net position is that portion of net position that has been restricted for general use
by external parties (creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other
governments) or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Unrestricted net position consists of net position that does not meet the definition of either of
the other two components.
8. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position will sometimes report a separate section
for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred
outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period
and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then.
The City reports within its government-wide statement of net position as deferred outflows
of resources,amounts contributed during fiscal year 2022 for the City's various pension plans
and cost-sharing multiple employer pension plans (cost-sharing plans). The net pension
liabilities/assets associated with the City's single-employer pension plans were measured as
of September 30, 2021 and as of June 30, 2022 for the cost-sharing plans. The amounts paid
to the pension plans during fiscal year 2022, subsequent to the measurement dates, will be
reflected within the City's pension expense and related liability/asset when the net pension
liability/asset is measured for the next fiscal year.

8. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources (continued)
In addition to liabilities,the statement of net position will sometimes report a separate section
for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element,deferred inflows
of resources,represents an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period and so will
not be recognized as an inflow of resources(revenue)until that time. Within the government-
wide statement of net position, the City reports deferred inflows related to pensions that
qualify for reporting in this category. The governmental funds report deferred inflows for
unavailable revenue until the criteria for revenue recognition has been met.
Also, within the government-wide statement of net position, the City reports as deferred
inflows or outflows, amounts representing the net difference between or differences between
expected and actual results, changes in assumptions and projected and actual earnings of its
pension plan. Differences between projected and actual earnings will be amortized over a
five year closed period beginning in the year in which the difference occurred and are
presented as a net deferred inflow or outflow at the measurement date. All other amounts are
presented as either a deferred inflow ar outflow established at their respective measurement
date when the difference occurred and is amortized over the remaining service lives of
employees.
9. Net Position Flow Assumption
Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g.,
restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the
amounts to report as restricted-net position and unrestricted-net position in the government-
wide and proprietary fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the
order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the City's policy to consider
restricted—net position to have been depleted before unrestricted- net position is applied.
10. Fund Balance Flow Assumptions
Sometimes the City will fund outlays far a particular purpose from both restricted and
unrestricted resources (the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In
order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned
fund balance in the governmental fund financial statements a flow assumption must be made
about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the City's policy to
consider restricted fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components
of unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can
be used for the same purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned
fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.

11. Fund Balance Policies
The City's accounting and finance policies are used to interpret the nature andlor
requirements of the funds and their corresponding assignment of restricted, committed,
assigned, or unassigned.
The City reports the following classifications:
Non-spendable fund balance. Non-spendable fund balances are amounts that cannot be
spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually
required to be maintained intact.
Restrzcted fund balance. Restricted fund balances are amounts that can be spent only for
specific purposes stipulated by (a) external resource providers such as creditors (by debt
covenants),grantors,contributors,or laws or regulations of other governments; or(b)imposed
by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed fund balance. These amounts can only be used for the specific purposes
pursuant to constraints imposed by a formal action of the government's highest level of
decision-making authority. The City Commission is the highest level of decision-making
authority for the government that can, by adoption of a resolution or an ordinance (equally
binding), commit fund balance. Once adopted,the limitation remains in place until the City
Commission removes or revises the limitation by taking the same type of action (the
adoption of another resolution or ordinance). This classification also includes contractual
obligations to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically
committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements.
Assigned fund balance. This classification reflects the amounts constrained by the City's
"intent" to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. The
City's policy is that the City Commission and the Mayor have the authority to assign
amounts to be used for specific purposes. Assigned fund balances include all remaining
amounts (except negative balances)that are reported in governmental funds, other than the
General Fund, that are not classified as non-spendable and are neither restricted nor
committed.
Unassigned fund balance. This fund balance is the residual classification for the General
Fund. It is also used to report negative fund balances in other governmental funds.

12. 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 amounts of assets and deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources, disclosures of contingent liabilities, revenues and
expenditures/expenses reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
13. Unearned/Unavailable Revenue
Unearned revenue arises when resources are received by the City before it has a legal claim to
them. In addition, inflows that do not yet meet the criteria for revenue recognition are recorded
as unearned revenue or a deferred inflow in the government-wide and the fund financial
statements. In subsequent periods, when the City has a legal claim to the resources, the liability
for unearned revenue or a deferred inflow is removed and revenue is recognized. In the
governmental funds, unavailable revenue may also arise if the funds are not received in the
availability period; the funds are then not considered a current available resource. As of
September 30, 2022, the City reported unavailable revenues related to transportation surtax,rent
revenue, and expenditure reimbursements from the Federal Emergency Management Agency
("FEMA")relating to Hurricane Irma.
14. New Accounting Pronouncements Adopted
GASB Statement No. 87, Leases, addresses accounting and financial reporting for leases by
governments. The statement requires recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for
leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of
resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract. This
Statement was implemented by the City for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022;
however, there was no impact to the City.
GASB Statement No. 92, Omnibus 2020, addresses certain practice issues identified during
implementation and application of certain GASB Statements, including 1) the effective date
of GASB Statement No. 87 and Implementation Guide 2019-3 related to Leases for interim
reparts; 2) reporting of intra-entity transfers between a primary government employer and
component unit defined benefit pension plan; 3)the applicability of GASB Statement No. 73
to reporting assets accumulated for OPEB; 4) applicability of GASB Statement No. 84 to
postemployment benefit arrangements; 5) measurement of assets and liabilities related to
asset retirement obligations; 6) reporting for amounts recoverable by public entity risk pools
from reinsurers or excess insurers; and 7) certain terminology references. This Statement was
implemented by the City far the fiscal year ending September 30, 2022; however, there was
no significant impact to the City.

DEPOSITS
In addition to insurance provided by the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation("FDIC"),
all deposits are held in banking institutions approved by the State Treasurer of the State of
Florida to hold public funds. Under Florida Statutes Chapter 280,Florida Security for Public
Deposits Act, the State Treasurer requires all Florida qualified public depositories to deposit

certificate of deposits, are insured or collateralized.
INVESTMENTS
The City has adopted an investment policy in accordance with Flarida Statutes to establish
guidelines far the efficient management of its cash reserves. The City is authorized to invest
in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, its agencies and instrumentalities, certificates of deposit,
the State Board of Administration ("SBA") investment pool, any intergovernmental
investment pools authorized pursuant to Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes, Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") registered money market funds with the highest credit
quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency, and securities of any interest in any
open-end or closed-end management type investment company or investment trust registered

NOTE 4-PROPERTY TAXES
Under Florida law,the assessment of all properties and the collection of all county,municipal
and school board property taxes are consolidated in the offices of the Miami-Dade County
Property Appraiser and County Tax Collector. The laws of the State regulating tax
assessments are also designed to ensure a consistent property valuation method statewide.
State statutes permit municipalities to levy property taxes at a rate of up to 10 mills ($10 per
$1,000 of assessed taxable valuation). The millage rate assessed by the City for fiscal year
ended September 30, 2022 is 7.2946 per $1,000.
All property is reassessed according to its fair market value as of January 1 of each year. Each
assessment roll is submitted to the Executive Director of the State Department of Revenue
for review to determine if the rolls meet all of the appropriate requirements of State statutes.
Property taxes are centrally billed and collected by the County and remitted to the City for
their proportionate share of collected taxes. Current year property values are assessed as of
January 1 st, the lien date, of each year for the fiscal year beginning October 1 st and are billed
on November 1 st, subject to a 1% per month discount for the period November through
February, and are due no later than March 31 st. On April 1 st, unpaid amounts become
delinquent and are subject to interest and penalties. Beginning June lst, tax certificates
representing delinquent taxes with interest and penalties are sold by the County, with
remittance to the City for its share of those receipts. Generally, the City collects more than
95% of the current year's property taxes during the year in which they are due. There were
no material delinquent property taxes as of September 30, 2022.

Effective May 1,2008, a new replacement plan was established under Ordinance 07-03 (local
plan). The local plan is called the "Police Substitute Pension Trust Fund". The Board of
Trustees serve as the trustees of the new plan. Simultaneous with the creation of the local
plan and effective May 1, 2008, under Ordinance 08-03, the old Chapter 185 Plan which had
originally been created under Ordinance 69-25, was terminated (the old plan). Essentially,
the new plan was a continuation of the old plan with the exception that this plan is not a
Chapter 185 Plan.
On May 1, 2008, the City of Florida City also joined the Florida Retirement System("FRS")
for its police officers. A referendum was held to allow the police officers to: stay in the local
plan,join the FRS without being eligible for an employer benefit under the local Plan or join
the FRS and keep their deferred vested benefit under the plan. At the time of the conversion,
two officers stayed in the City's local plan, twenty-two officers joined FRS while being
ineligible to receive an employer benefit under the local plan, and six officers joined FRS
while retaining their accrued benefit under the local plan. Additionally, all new officers are
enrolled into the FRS upon employment.
All full-time permanent police employees were eligible to participate in the Plan from the
date of employment. Police employees who retire at or after age 60 are entitled to a normal
retirement benefit of 2.5% of Average Compensation multiplied by credited service years of
service to a maximum of 30 years. Benefits vest at a rate of 10%per year.
Vested employees may retire at or after age 50 with at least ten years of credited service and
receive reduced retirement benefits. Benefits, upon early retirement, are reduced by 3% for
each year early retirement precedes normal retirement date. Active participants are allowed to
purchase service credit for military service or prior service rendered as a police officer.Pension
benefits are established and may be amended only by the City Commission.

Cr�edit Risk
The Plan's investment policy limits investments in bonds, stocks, or other evidences of
indebtedness issued or guaranteed by a corporation organized under the laws of the United
States, any state or organized territory of the United States, or the District of Columbia,
provided the corporation is listed on any one or more of the recognized national stock
exchanges or on the National Market System of the NASDAQ Stock Market and in the case
of bonds only, holds a rating in one of the three highest classifications by a major rating
service. The Plan's corporate bonds were all rated "A" or better under Standard & Poar's
ratings. The Plan's government securities were all rated AAA by Standard & Poor's.
Concentr�ation of CNedit Risk
The Plan's investment policy prohibits equity securities concentrations greater than 7.5% in
the securities of any one company at cost and fixed income securities concentrations greater
than 10% in any one issuer with the exception of U.S. government or agency issues. As of
September 30, 2022, the value of each position held in the Plan's portfolio comprised less
than 5% of fiduciary net position.
Rate of RetuNn
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the annual money-weighted rate of
return on pension plan investments, net of pension plan investment expense, was -15.59%
and 16.33%, respectively. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment
performance, net of investment manager and consultant expenses adjusted for the changing
amounts actually invested. Inputs to the internal rate of return calculation are determined on
a monthly basis.
FaiN Value Hierarchy
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The
City's pension plan categorize their fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy
established by GAAP. The fair value hierarchy categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques
used to measure fair value into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in
measuring fair value are observable in the market.

The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to
various risks such as interest rate,market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated
with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values
of investment securities will occur in the near term and those such changes could materially
affect the amounts reported in the statement of fiduciary net position. The Plan, through its
investment advisor, monitors the Plan's investments and the risks associated therewith on a
regular basis which the Plan believes minimizes these risks.

C. CONTRIBUTIONS AND FUNDING POLICY
Active members, if any, are required to contribute 7% of their salaries to the PERS. If an
employee leaves covered employment or dies before ten years of service, accumulated
employee contributions with credited interest are refunded. The City is required to make
contributions at actuarially determined amounts; there was $0 minimum contribution
requirement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. The minimum contribution
consists of the normal cost plus the amortization of the components of the unfunded actuarial
accrued liability,which should provide sufficient resources to pay employee pension benefits
when due.
The actuarially determined contribution for the Plan for the current year was determined as
part of the October 1, 2020 actuarial valuation using the aggregate actuarial cost method. The
aggregate actuarial cost method does not identify and separately amortize unfunded actuarial
liabilities and therefare, information about funding status and funding progress is presented
using the entry age normal cost method for the Plan.
D. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Plan follows the accrual basis of accounting. Contributions are recorded when paid or
when the City has made the commitment to contribute to the Plan. Purchases and sales are
recorded on the trade-date basis. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in
accordance with the terms of the Plan. Administrative costs of the Plan are funded through
investment earnings.

Long-Term Expected Rate of Return
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a
building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return
(expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for
each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of
return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation
percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return
for each major asset class included in the pension plan's target asset allocation as of
September 30, 2022 and 2021 are summarized in the following table:
Long-Term Expected
Asset Class Real Rate of Return
2022 2021
Large cap value equity 5.9% 5.9%

Core �ed income 0.8% 0.8%
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability as of September 30, 2022 and
2021 was 6.08%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rates assumed
that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City
contributions will be made at the actuarially determined contribution rate. Based on those
assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make
all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, there was no need
to adjust the long-term expected rate of return on Plan investments to determine the total
pension liability.

interest rates. The Plan does not have a formal investment policy that limits investment
maturities as a means of managing its exposure to market value losses arising from increasing
interest rates.
Credit Risk
The Plan's investment policy limits investments in bonds, stocks, or other evidences of
indebtedness issued or guaranteed by a corporation organized under the laws of the United
States, any state or organized territary of the United States, or the District of Columbia,
provided the corparation is listed on any one or more of the recognized national stock
exchanges or on the National Market System of the NASDAQ Stock Market and in the case
of bonds only, holds a rating in one of the three highest classifications by a major rating
service. The Plan's corporate bonds were all rated "A" or better under Standard & Poar's
ratings. The Plan's government securities were all rated AAA by Standard & Poor's.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Plan's investment policy prohibits equity securities concentrations greater than 7.5% in
the securities of any one company at cost and fixed income securities concentrations greater
than 10% in any one issuer with the exception of U.S. government or agency issues. As of
September 30, 2022, the value of each position held in the Plan's portfolio comprised less
than 5% of fiduciary net position.
Rate of RetuNn
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the annual money-weighted rate of
return on pension plan investments, net of pension plan investment expense, was -15.98%
and 16.23%, respectively. The money-weighted rate of return expresses investment
performance, net of investment manager and consultant expenses adjusted for the changing
amounts actually invested. Inputs to the internal rate of return calculation are determined on
a monthly basis.
FaiN Value Hierarchy
The following is a description of the fair value techniques for the Elected Officials Retirement
Plan's investments. Level 1 and 2 prices are obtained from various pricing sources by the
Plan's custodian bank:
The Plan also holds money market funds, which are reported at amortized cost.
Common stock, classified in Level 1, are valued using prices quoted in active markets for
those securities.
U.S. Treasuries and Agency securities, classified in Leve12, are valued using pricing models
maximizing the use of observable inputs for similar securities.
Corporate bonds, classified in Level 2, are valued using pricing models maximizing the use
of observable inputs for similar securities. This includes basing the value on yields currently
available on comparable securities of issuers with similar credit ratings. When quoted prices
are not available for identical or similar bonds, the bond is valued under a discounted cash
flows approach that maximizes observable inputs, such as current yield of similar
instruments, but includes adjustments for certain risks that may not be observable, such as
credit and liquidity risks or a broker quote, if available.

Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to
various risks such as interest rate, market, and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated
with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values
of investment securities will occur in the near term and those such changes could materially
affect the amounts reported in the statement of fiduciary net position. The Plan, through its
investment advisor, monitors the Plan's investments and the risks associated therewith on a
regular basis which the Plan believes minimizes these risks.

Discount Rate and Long-Term Expected Rate of Retur�n
A single discount rate of 6.75% was used to measure the total pension liability as of
September 30, 2022 and 2021 measurement dates,respectively. The single discount rate was
based on the expected rate of return on pension plan investments of 6.75% as of September
30, 2022 and 2021 measurement dates, respectively. The projection of cash flows used to
determine this single discount rate assumed that employer contributions will be made equal
to the total actuarially determined contribution rates.Based on these assumptions,the pension
plan's fiduciary net position 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 of 6.75% was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments
to determine the total pension liability as of September 30,2022 and 2021 measurement dates,
respectively.

NOTE 13-COST-SHARING DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS
Effective May 1, 2008, the City of Florida City commenced participation in the Florida
Retirement System ("FRS"), a cost-sharing multiple employer Public Employee Retirement
System ("PERS"). There are two defined benefit plans as part of the Florida Retirement
System. The FRS is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan with a
Deferred Retirement Option Program ("DROP") for eligible employees. An additional plan is
also available to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for
FRS members. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan.
The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program ("HIS") is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer
defined benefit pension plan. The FRS and HIS were created by the Florida Legislature and
are administered by the State of Florida.
Essentially all regular employees of the City are eligible to enroll as members of the State-
administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122,
Florida Statutes;Chapter 112,Part IV,Florida Statutes; Chapter 238,Florida Statutes; and FRS
Rules, Chapter 605, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and
benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by
further action from the Florida Legislature.
The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management
Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer
defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. An annual comprehensive financial
report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary
information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida
Department of Management Services' website:
(http://www.dms.mvflorida.com/workforce_operations/retirement/publications).
A. PLAN DESCRIPTION
FRS Pension Plan
The FRS Pension Plan ("Plan") is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension
plan, with DROP for eligible employees. The general classes of inembership are as follows:
Regular Class—Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.
Elected County Officers Class — Members who hold specified elective offices in local
government.
Senior Management Se�vice Class (SMSC) —Members in senior management level positions.
Special Risk Class — Members who are employed as law enforcement officers and meet the
criteria to qualify for this class.

FRS Pension Plan (continued)
Employees enrolled in the Plan prior to July 1,20ll,vest at six years of creditable service and
employees enrolled in the Plan on or after July 1,2011,vest at eight years of creditable service.
All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits
at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service (except for members classified as special risk
who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service).
All members enrolled in the Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal
retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service (except for
members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or
at any age after 30 years of service). Members of the Plan may include up to 4 years of credit
for military service toward creditable service.
The Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for
each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The Plan provides
retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible
participants.
DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible
for normal retirement under the Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while
continuing employment with an FRS employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a
period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate. During the period of DROP
participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest.
The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members
are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits.
HIS Plan
The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program ("HIS Plan") is a cost-sharing multiple-
employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363,Florida Statutes,and
may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to
assist retirees of the State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance
costs and is administered by the Division of Retirement within the Florida Department of
Management Services.

B. BENEFITS PROVIDED
FRS Pension Plan
Benefits under the Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final
compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage
of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the
average final compensation is the average of the five highest fiscal years' earnings; for
members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the
average of the eight highest fiscal years' earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit
received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the
retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members
are eligible for in-line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors' benefits. The following chart
shows the percentage value for each year of service credit earned:
Regular Class members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011:
Retirement up to age 62 or up to 30 years of service 1.60%
Retirement at age 63 or with 31 years of service 1.63%
Retirement at age 64 or with 32 years of service 1.65%
Retirement at age 65 or with 33 or more years of service 1.68%
Regular Class members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011:
Retirement up to age 65 or up to 33 years of service 1.60%
Retirement at age 66 or with 34 years of service 1.63%
Retirement at age 67 or with 35 years of service 1.65%
Retirement at age 68 or with 36 or more years of service 1.68%
Elected County Officers: 3.00%
Senior Management Service Class: 2.00%
S�ecial Risk Re,gular Class: 3.00%
As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes,if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS
before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of-
living adjustment is 3% per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and
has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living
adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3%determined by dividing
the sum of the pre-October 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement
multiplied by 3%. Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a
cost-of-living adjustment after retirement.

D. PENSION LIABILITIES, PENSION EXPENSE, AND DEFERRED OI7TFLOWS OF RESOURCES
AND DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES RELATED TO PENSIONS
At September 30,2022,the City reported liabilities of$8,082,659 for its proportionate share of
the FRS net pension liability and$1,740,242 for the HIS 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 July 1,2022 (FRS)and July
1, 2022 (HIS). The City's proportionate share of the net pension liability was based on the
City's fiscal year 2022 contributions relative to the fiscal year 2022 contributions of all
participating members. At June 30, 2022, the City's proportionate share was 0.0217% for the
FRS plan and 0.0164% for the HIS plan, which was a decrease of 0.0004% and 0.0003%,
respectively, from the proportionate share measured as of June 30, 2021.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, the City recognized pension expense of for the
FRS plan in the amount of$105,810 and recognized pension expense for the HIS plan in the
amount of$33. In addition, the City reported, in the government-wide financial statements,
deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to both plans from the
following sources:

F. LONG-TERM EXPECTED RATE OF RETURN
FRS Pension Plan
The long-term expected rate of return on the Plan investments was not based on historical returns,
but instead is based on a forward-looking capital market economic model.The allocation policy's
description of each asset class was used to map the target allocation to the asset classes shown
below. Each asset class assumption is based on a consistent set of underlying assumptions, and
includes an adjustment for the inflation assumption. The target allocation and best estimates of
arithmetic and geometric real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the
following table:
Compound

G. DISCOI7NT RATE
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 6.70% for the FRS plan. The
fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit
payments of current active and inactive employees. Therefore,the discount rate for calculating
the total pension liability is equal to the long-term expected rate of return. The HIS program
uses a pay as you go funding structure, so therefore, the depletion date is considered to be
immediate and the single equivalent discount rate is equal to the municipal bond rate. The
municipal bond rate of 3.54%was used to determine the total pension liability for the program.
The Bond Buyer General Obligation 20-Bond Municipal Bond Index was adopted as the
applicable municipal bond index.

Detailed information about the fiduciary net position of both benefit plans are available in the

.I. FRS—INVESTMENT PLAN
The City contributes to the FRS defined contribution Investment Plan("Investment Plan").The
Investment Plan is administered by the SBA, and is reported in the SBA's annual financial
statements and in the State of Florida Annual Comprehensive Financial Report. As provided in
Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the
Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. City employees participating in the
DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee
contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member's accounts, are defined by
law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Benefit
terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be

amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer
and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class,
Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS Pension Plan. Contributions are directed to
individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account
balances among various approved investment choices.Allocations to the investment member's
accounts, as established by Section 121.72,Florida Statutes, are based on a percentage of gross
compensation,by class.
For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and
are vested after one year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an
accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan
is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for
FRS Pension Plan vesting(including the service credit represented by the transferred funds)to
be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds.Non-vested employer contributions are
placed in a suspense account for up to five years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered
employment within the five-year period, the employee will regain control over their account.
If the employee does not return within the five-year period, the employee will forfeit the
accumulated account balance. Costs of administering the Investment Plan, including the FRS
Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06%of payroll
and by forfeited benefits of Investment Plan members. For the fiscal year ended September 30,
2022, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however,
management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the City.
After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to
another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan,receive a lump-
sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these
options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance
to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime
monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon
that account balance for retirement income.
The City's Investment Plan pension contributions totaled$190,269 and employee contributions
totaled$44,578 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022.

PLAN DESCRIPTION
The City provides health insurance benefits to its retired employees through an optional single-
employer plan administered by the City. The City subsidizes the premium rates paid by retirees
by allowing them to participate in the plan at reduced or blended group (implicitly subsidized)
premium rates for both active and retired employees. These rates provide an implicit subsidy
for retirees because, on an actuarial basis,their current and future claims are expected to result
in higher costs to the plan on average than those of active employees. The benefits provided
under the plan are provided for a retiree's lifetime (ar until such time at which retiree
discontinues coverage under the City sponsored plans, if earlier). The plan has no assets and
does not issue a separate fmancial report.
FUNDING POLICY
Currently, the City follows a pay-as-you-go funding policy, contributing only those amounts
necessary to provide for its portion of current year benefit costs and expenses. The City does
not directly make a contribution to the plan on behalf of retirees. Retirees and their
beneficiaries pay the same group rates as are charged to the City for active employees by its
healthcare provider. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 there were no retirees
receiving other postemployment benefits. Current and future retirees are required to pay 100%
of the blended premium to continue coverage under the City's group health insurance program.

TOTAL OPEB LIABILITY
The City's total OPEB liability of$612,529 was measured as of September 30, 2021, and was
determined by an actuarial valuation date as of September 30, 2021. As authorized by GASB
Statement No. 75, the alternative measurement method was used by the City. This method
allows the City to use simplification of certain assumptions in measuring costs and liabilities.
Actuarial Assumptions and Other Inputs
The Total OPEB Liability in the September 30, 2021 actuarial valuation was determined using
the following actuarial assumptions and other inputs, applied to all periods included in the
measurement, unless otherwise specified:
Inflation 2.25%
Salary increases 5.00%
Discount rate 2.19%
Healthcare cost trend rates 6.00% for fiscal year beginning 2022, 5.75% for
fiscal year beginning 2023 and then gradually
decreasing to an ultimate trend rate of 3.75%.
Mortality Mortality tables used m the July 1, 2021 actuarial
valuation of the Florida Retirement System for
non-K-12 Instructional Regular Class members.
These rates were taken from adjusted PUB-2010
mortality tables published by the Society of

NOTE TO BUDGETARY COMPARISON SCHEDULES
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2022
NOTE 1-BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
An annual appropriated budget is adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States for the general fund and CRA.
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the
accompanying financial statements:
a. Management submits to the City Commission a proposed operating budget for the
ensuing fiscal year. The operating budget includes appropriations and the means of
financing them with an explanation regarding each expenditure that is not of a routine
nature;
b. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments;
c. Prior to October 1 st, the budget is legally enacted through passage of a resolution;
d. The City Commission, by motion, may make supplemental appropriations for the
year up to the amount of revenue in excess of those estimated appropriations. There
were no supplemental appropriations in the General Fund or CRA for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2022.
e. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during
the year for the general fund and CRA;
f. Amendments to the budget within a department can be authorized by the Mayor as
the City's Chief administrator. Any amendments outside of a department must be
approved by the City Commission. Therefore, the legal level of control is at the
department level.
g. Unencumbered appropriations lapse at year end.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED
ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH GOVERNMENT A UDITING STANDARDS
To the Honorable Mayor and City Commission
City of Florida City, Florida
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Gove�nment
Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government
Auditing Standards), the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Florida
City, Florida (the "City"), as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022, and the related
notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial
statements, and have issued our report thereon dated June 22, 2023.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's
internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions
on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of
the City's internal control.
A deficiency in internal control eXists when the design ar operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent, ar detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the City's financial statements will not be prevented,
or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet
important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph
of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be
material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did
not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses.
However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free
from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of
laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a
direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on
compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not
express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or
other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and
compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of
the City's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed
in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control and
compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable far any other purpose.
