~'.,;,, LOS Banos,,~ Al lite Crossroads of Cali/ofilia ~p Agenda Staff Report TO: FROM: DATE: Mayor & City Council Members Martha Brazil, City Treasurer~ November 23, 2010 SUBJECT: Workshop to Review the Financial Reports for Fiscal Year 2008-2009 ADJOURNED MEETING: December 7,2010 at 4:30 p.m., City Council Chambers TYPE OF REPORT: Informational Item Recommendation: Informational only, for Council's review Background: The City's financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2009 have been audited by the City's independent auditing firm, Maze and Associates. They have also audited the component unit financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund of the Redevelopment Agency. Their work was completed in accordance with Generally Accepted Auditing Standards issued by the Controller of the United States. The goal of the independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City are reliable and free of material misstatements. The Memorandum on Internal Control and Required Communications is the auditor's method of communicating controls or procedures where opportunities for improvement have been identified. The City is also required to undergo an annual single audit in compliance with provisions of the Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133. The Federal Government requires that any local agency receiving or expending $500,000 or more in combined federal grant funds is subject to a separate audit on those programs and a separate Single Audit Report is issued. This threshold amount occurred in fiscal year 2008-2009; therefore a separate report was issued.
The Government Accounting Standards Board's (GASB) Statement No. 45 requires that the City account for and report their costs and obligations related to post employment health care and other non-pension benefits (OPEB). An actuarial study was done by Total Compensation System, Inc. as of July 1, 2010 in order for the City to comply with the GASB 45 standards. Discussion: Brent Kuhn of Vavrinek, Trine, Day & Co., LLP (VTD) will review key points of each report and answer any questions. An outline is provided on the main points he will be going over tonight with all of us. Fiscal Impact: None.
