The Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council
and City Administrator
City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado
We have examined the combined financial statements of the
City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado and the combining, individual fund,
and account group financial statements of the City as of and for
the year ended December 3l, 1983, as listed in the table of
contents. Our examination was made in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards and accordingly, included such tests
of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as
we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred
to above present fairly the financial position of the City of
Wheat Ridge, Colorado at December 3l, 1983 and the results of its
operations and the changes in financial position of its Trust
Fund for the year then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent with
that the preceding year. Also, in our opinion, the combining,
individual fund, and account group financial statements referred
to above present fairly the financial position of the individual
funds of the City of Wheat Ridge, Colorado at December 3l, 1983,
in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles
applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
Our examination was made for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the combined financial statements taken as a whole and
on the combining, individual fund, and account group financial
statements. The accompanying financial information listed as
supporting schedules in the table of contents is presented for
purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the
combined financial statements of the City of Wheat Ridge,
Colorado. The information has been subjected to the same auditing
procedures applied in the examination of the combined, combining,
individual fund, and account group financial statements and, in
our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in
relation to the combined financial statements taken as a whole.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The accounting policies of the City of Wheat Ridge
conform to generally accepted accounting pr inciples as
applicable to governments. The following is a summary
of the more significant policies:
A. FUND ACCOUNTING
The accounts of the Ci ty are organized on the
basis of funds and account groups, each of which is
considered a separate accounting entity. The opera-
tions of each fund are accounted for with a separate
set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its
assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and
expenditures, or expenses, as appropriate. Govern-
ment resources are allocated to and accounted for in
individual funds based upon the purposes for which
they are to be spent and the means by which spending
activi ties are controlled. The var ious funds are
grouped, in the financial statements in this report,
into three generic fund types as follows:
Governmental Fund Types

capacity or as an agent. These funds include an
Expendable Trust, a Pension Trust, and two
Agency Funds. Expendable Trust Funds are ac-
counted for in essentially the same manner as
governmental funds. Pension Trust Funds are
accounted for in essentially the same manner as
propr ietary funds since capital maintenance is
critical. Agency Funds are custodial in nature
(assets equal liabilities) and do not involve
measurement of results of operations. Trust and
Agency Funds of the City include the following:
Policemen's Pension Fund
The Policemen's Pension Fund was estab-
lished to account for funds received from
participants and the City's General Fund.
The funds are held in trust for disbursement
to qualified participants upon leaving the
plan or upon qualified retirement.
Public Works Escrow Fund
The Public Works Escrow Fund, an agency
fund, was established to account for funds
received as financial guarantees prior to
the issuance of certain authorized construc-
tion permi ts. Upon completion of all re-
quired work under the permits, the funds are
refunded.
CATV Property Damage Fund
The CATV (cable television) Property
Damage Fund, an agency fund, was established
to account for funds received from the cable
television permittee for settlement of minor
unresolved claims against the permittee for
damage to private property. The permittee
is required to restore city paid settlements
within fourteen days after notification.
Conservation Trust Fund
The Conservation Trust Fund, an expend-
able trust fund, was established to account
for funds received and restricted for use in
the acquisition, development and maintenance
of new conservation sites pursuant to Chap-
ter 138-1-98 of the Revised statutes of the
State of Colorado.

C. BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and
expenditures or expenses are recognized in the ac-
counts and reported in the financial statements.
The General, Special Revenue, and Expendable
Trust funds are accounted for using the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Their revenues are
recognized when they become measurable and available
as net cur rent assets. Expend i tures are generally
recognized under the modified accrual basis. Rev-
enue is recognized in the accounting period in which
it becomes available and measurable. Expenditures
are recognized in the accounting period in which the
fund liability is incurred.
CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
Trust and Agency Funds are used to account for
assets held by the City in a trustee capacity.
These include Expendable Trust, Pension Trust, and
Agency Funds. Agency funds are custodial in nature
(assets equal liabilities) and do not involve meas-
urement of results of operations. The Pension Trust
Funds is accounted for using the accrual basis of
accounting.
D. BUDGETS
The individual and combined statements of Rev-
enues, Expend i tures, and Changes in Fund Balance-
Budget (non-GAAP Budgetary Basis) and actual for the
General, Special Revenue and Expendable Trust Funds
present compar isons of the legally adopted budget
with actual data on the (non-GAAP) budgetary basis
which includes encumbrances. All other statements
exclude encumbrances, as required by GAAP (generally
accepted accounting principles): expenditures are
only recorded when the liability is incurred. Bud-
getary appropriations lapse at the end of each cal-
endar year.
Appropriations are controlled and the budget is
only amended in conformity with Colorado Revised
Statutes.
E. ENCUMBRANCES
Encumbrances, commitments related to unperformed
(executory) contracts for goods or services, are
recorded for budgetary control purposes in the gen-
eral and special revenue funds. Encumbrances out-
standing at year-end are reported as reserved for
encumbrances since they do not constitute expendi-
tures or liabilities. Encumbrances do not lapse at
year-end for budgetary purposes and become part of
the following year's appropriations.
F. ACCRUED PAYROLL BENEFITS
City employees earn vacation leave which may be
either taken or accumulated, up to a maximum amount,
until paid upon termination or retirement. Unused
sick leave, in excess of 480 hours, may be converted
to annual leave or cash upon retirement or termina-
tion. Police accumulate holiday pay for hours
worked on holidays (see Note 7).

G. DEFERRED REVENUES - PROPERTY TAXES
Property taxes are levied on December 3l, of
each year and attach as an enforceable lien on prop-
erty as of January l. It is the policy of the City
to record the property tax receivables in the year
in which the taxes are levied and to recognize the
property tax revenues in the year in which the lien
attaches on the property. All mater ial property
taxes levied as of December 13, 1982 were collected
as of December 3l, 1983, accordingly no provision
for uncollected taxes has been made.
H. TOTAL COLUMNS ON COMBINING AND COMBINED STATEMENTS
Total Columns are only presented to facilitate
financial analysis. Data in these columns do not
present financial positions in conformity with gen-
erally accepted accounting principles. Neither is
such data comparable to a consolidation, inter fund
eliminations have not been made in the aggregation
of this data. (See note 7.)
I. CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT
Certificates of deposit are stated at purchase
price. Interest is not accrued. The general terms
of the certificates require that the investment
mature in order to earn the stated interest rate.
Most certificates are subject to substantial penal-
ties for early retirement.
2. RESTRICTED ASSETS-CASH
General Fund cash of $100,000 has been restricted by
City Council for emergency situations affecting the
lives and property of the City's citizens. Expenditures
must be approved in advance by the City Council, or in
situations where members of City Council cannot be con-
tacted, the Mayor and the City Administrator can approve
expendi tures, provided a subsequent report is made at
the next City Council meeting.
3. PENSION PLANS
During 1981, the City withdrew from the state-wide
defined benefit pension plan, with state permission, and
instituted a defined contribution money purchase plan
for its police employees. During 1981, each participant
was required to contribute 9% of their compensation with
a matching amount from the City. In 1982, the contribu-
tion increased to 10% from both the participant and the
CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. PENSION PLANS (Continued)
City; however, under certain conditions participants may
contribute up to 15%. During 1983, the participants and
the City each contributed $l33,486 to the plan.
Dur ing 1981, var ious investments of the fund were
converted to cash. $l,375,870 was transferred to the
Equi table Life Assurance Society as trustee. Per an
allocation of assets statement prepared by consulting
actuaries a total of $l,454,824 was transferred.
The City also participates in the Colorado County
Officials and Employees Retirement Association Retire-
ment Plan. This Plan covers non-police employees. The
participants are required to contribute 4% (and can
voluntarily contribute up to lO%) of their compensation
from the City, the City contr ibutes an amount equal to
4% of the employees compensation. The City's contribu-
tion totaled $52,085 for the year ended December 3l,
1983. The City has no liability under the Plan other
than the matching payment.
4 . BUDGETS
Budget amounts reflected in the accompanying finan-
cial statements are based on the revised 1983 budget as
adopted by the City Council.
The revised budget for all funds except the Police-
men's Pension Plan is as follows:
1983 estimated revenues
Fund balance carryover from 1982
Total revenues
$1l,547,l09
3,399,433
$14,946,542
Total appropriations for 1983 expenditures
$lO,343,l08
A budget was not prov ided for the pol icemen's Pen-
sion Fund because in the opinion of the City Attorney,
this Fund is not under the control of City Council and,
therefore, is not subject to the budgetary requirement
of Colorado Statutes. This reporting is also consistent
with generally accepted accounting principles.
CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As of December 31, 1983, there are certain claims,
sui ts and complaints ar ising in the ordinary course of
operations that have been filed or are pending against
the City. In the opinion of management, all such mat-
ters are adequately covered by insurance, or if not so
covered, are without merit or are of such kind, or
involved such amounts, as would not have a significant
effect on the financial position or results of opera-
tions of the City if disposed of unfavorably.
6. LEASES
In December 1979, the City entered into a four-year
agreement to lease data processing equipment for rental
payments totaling $l8,397 annually. The agreement pro-
vides the lease is contingent upon the City's ability to
fund the rental on a year-to-year basis, accordingly the
lease has been recorded as an operating lease. The
lease expires in March 1984 and at that time title to
the equipment reverts to the City. The City plans to re-
place the equipment, resale value of the present
equipment is not readily determinable.
7. ACCRUED PAYROLL BENEFITS
As of December 3l, 1983, accrued sick pay of $l3,833
ws recorded as a current liability of the general fund.
Based upon prior experience this amount will normally be
liquidated with expendable available resources.
As of December 3l, 1983, accrued annual leave of
$lS5,784 and accrued holiday pay of $l6,335 was recorded
in the General Long-Term Debt Group of Accounts.
8. OTHER MATTERS
Council Resolution 757 authorized the establishment
of a Police Department Bond Trust. Under this program
(fund) the City would collect cash bonds from individu-
als arrested in the City and being held on warrants
issued by other governmental units. The bond trust is a
statewide program. The activities of this fund are cur-
rently included in the general fund due to the limi ted
size and number of transactions. The fund had a cash
balance of $250.00 at December 31, 1983.
9. ENTITY CHANGES
During 1982,
the Urban Renewal Author i ty was

reported as a separate entity. In response to the Na-
tional Council on Governmental Accounting statement 3,
the City determined that the Urban Renewal Authority did
not meet any of the criteria that would allow the Urban
Renewal Author i ty to continue reporting as a separate
entity. Accordingly, the Urban Renewal Authority is
included in financial statements of the City for the
year ended December 3l, 1983. In addition the 1982
"Memorandum Only" columns have been restated to include
the financial statements of the Urban Renewal Authority
as of December 3l, 1982.

FINANCIAL ASSESSMENT REPORT
-
INTRODUCTION
The methodology used in this financial assessment report is based on the
International City r~anagement Association's financial trend monitoring system.
This is a management tool that combines information from City financial and
budgetary reports with data from the United States Census Bureau that can be
plotted over a period of time to monitor changes in major financial trends.
The time frame for this analysis is the period from 1971 until 1982 This
analysis is designed to identify financial trends in time to take appropriate
action and to provide input for the establishment of lonq term financial goals
and policies. This analysis concerns only the City's General Fund although
the Sales and Use Tax information is also useful in discussions of the Capital
Improvement Fund.
Much of the data in this report is adjusted through the ~se of the national
consumer price index from the 1971 base year. While the CPI is a useful tool, it
should be realized that it can only approximate inflation's effect on local
government since local public sector expenditures are not necessarily the same as
those used in the CPl. By use of the CPI real growth rates can be calculated in
terms of 1971 dollars; the methodology fdr the use of the C.P.I. is shown on page 17.
This financial assessment is not intended to provide specific answers or recommen-
dations based on the information presented here. It is intended to be the first
step in a two step process. The second step being the adoption of a set of financial
goals and policies to help both the staff and the City Council make better financial
decisions. It is also intended that these indicators will be updated annually prior
to the consideration of the annual budget so that the City Council and staff may
have current trend information for the budgetary process.

In graphic form this shows the relative importance of the major sources of genera~
fund revenue. The two major areas that have increased proportionately are Sales
and Use Taxes and Miscellaneous Revenue. The reason that Miscellaneous Revenue
has increased is because of interest income.

The relationship between Revenues, Expenditures, and the Fund Balance is clearly
shown here. Whenever revenues greatly exceed expenditures, a fund balance occurs,
from 1978 to 1982 this occurred in five successive yeal's \':hich caused rapid fund
balance gl'owth. In 1983 it is projected that the fund balance win beqin to
decrease because of declining revenues and use of a portion of the funa balance
as a 1983 operating revenue.

An examination of per capita revenue shows how revenues change relative to
Wheat Ridge's stable population level. Wheat Ridge's per capita revenue, when
adjusted for inflation has shown a real growth rate of3 .7% annually over the
last ten years which has allowed for the addition of new services.

Sales and Use tax has performed better than any of our other revenue sources. Sales and
Use taxes are elastic revenues that react quickly to changes in the economic base. In
times of inflation they increase dramatically, but can decrease just as dramatically in a
recessionary or depressed economy. In the State of Colorado, Sales Taxes are growing in
dominance within municipal revenue structures. The City of Wheat Ridge is excessively
reliant on sales tax revenue and should have a conservative contingency fund policy to
protect against a downturn in these revenues.
Sales and Use taxes have a real growth rate of9.7% from1972- 1982.

Property Tax revenues are tied to an equitable assessment process that produces
stable revenue increases. Because of inflation and the more rapid growth rates
of other revenue sources property taxes have become proportionately less important
in the Wheat Ridge General Fund revenue structure. The real growth rate of proper_y
taxes has declined at an annual rate of 4.4~: from 1972 _ 1982.

Intergovernmental Revenues are any revenues received from another ~overnmental entity. These
revenues are i~portant to monitor because over-dependence on intergovernmental revenues can
have an adverse impact on financial condition. These revenues are difficult to estimate
because we do not have access to detailed information re~arding them and we are not in close
communication \'Iith the decision-making bodies that make policy regarding them.
In the past ten years, intergovernmental revenues as a percenta~e of General Fund revenues in
Wheat Ridge have been on a downward trend. The four revenue sources comprising inter9overn-
mental revenue are cigarette tax, county road and bridge tax, highway users tax, and motor
vehicle registration. The real growth rate of these revenues grew to a peak in 1976 and has
declined steadily since.

ACTUAL REVENUES AND EXPENDITURES
1971 - 1982
Since 1975 Wheat Ridge's actual revenues have exceeded
budgeted revenue and since 1971. expenditures have fallen
well below the established budgeted level. These two
occurrences have accounted for rapid fund balance growth.
In 1983, it is prObable that actual revenues will fall
slightly below the budgeted level and almost equal the
amount of 1983 actual expenditures. This, combined with
the fact that $270,000 of the unallocated general fund was
transferred to the Capital Improvement Fund in the 1983
Budget, will result in a declining fund balance in the
General Fund.

In real dollar terms, the City of Wheat Ridge experienced 11.9% annual growth
from 1971 - 1974, this is due to rapid service growth involved in reaching our
present service level. Since 1974 the real growth rate in expenditures has been
zero.

Income. Since 1974 the City of Wheat Ridge General Fund has spent about 1.4%
of the income earned by Wheat Ridge residents. This graph shows that City
expenses are not an increasing burden on the average residents'budget, but

PER CAPITA STATISTICS
Several of the indicators in this report are done on a per capita basis. This means a
dollar amount per res-ident; the prJpulation figures below \'Iere used to compute all per
capita statlstlcs used in this rC~Jrt. The Der capita income statistics used rn the graph
in page 10 ilre also -listed below. 80th the population and per capita income information
\'Iere obtained from tr,e United States Census Buteau.
CONSUMER PRICE INDEX (CPI)
The cost of living adjustments shown on sevetal of the graphs were developed uSlng the
CPI factots listed below. These factors were taken from the Bureau of Labor Statistics-
All Urban Consumers Index. This is a measure of hO\"I inflation effects the average consumer.
The assumption made on our gr~phs is that local ~overnments are affected at a similar rate.
Since 1971 is the base year used it has the value of 100; 1981 is 225; what this means is
that one 1981 dollar is only worth 100/225 1971 dollars or 44.45 cents. Another way of
looking at it is it takes 225 1981 dollars to equal 100 1971 dollars.

SALES TAX ANALYSIS
SALES TAX ANALYSIS
On page 2 of the Financial Assessment Report it shows that Sales and Use Taxes
have risen from 1/3 to 1/2 of our General Fund Revenue in the 12st ten years.
Because Sales Tax is our larqest revenue source it is especially important that
the City Council and staff understand the location and types of businesses that
produce our Sales Tax Revenue.
The Sales Tax Sources shown on na~e 28 shows that about 2/3 of the City Sales Tax
base is composed of rapidly cJnscmable necessities such as Public Utilities, Food,
liquor and Prescri~,tion DnJgs. These are stable and continuous sources of revenue
for the City. Less than 5 of th~.:' City Sales Tax base comes horn department store
and entertainment industries that are highly susceptible to fluctuations in the
economy. Sales Tax is an unpredictable revenue to accurately estimate, but the type
of Sales Tax base in Wheat Ridge is relatively stable.
In September 1982, the Applewood commercial area produced 27.0% of the City's
Sales Tax Revenue as is shown on page 29 A year earlier, Applewood produced 34~
of the City's Sales Tax Revenue; thlS is in spite of the fact that Applpwooct contains
only 5.9~ (48) of the Citl's active Sales Tax Licenses (817). The old Wheat Ridoe
area eilS L c ~- v:ads\'lCrth exoeri enced dr"ilriiJti c sa 1 es tax grO\"ith beh'C'en 1981 and 1982,
but produces only about 20, of the Applewood area on a per license basis.
^ll of the information con~2ined O~ Dages 23 ard 29 was t~kEn frn~ an analysis of
the Septu~ler, 1%2 ~~.les T3'. t-~etm'ns by the Budget/Fir,ance I\ssis;:.:;nt. These
figures '.:iil differ fi'OCi affiClal ',<::(ods since about ilalf of (.iheat Ridge's Sales
Tax lic:;nscs arc ('\;:.ndj. d 0'-'\ a CiJ0ri.."t:rly basis and the larc0r' re-r~u.('ns are proc2ssed
on a monLhly basis. In order to c_me up with a more accurate estj~ate of geoqraphic
and business type pet'centage distribution, the third quartet' 1932 data flam the
small business was divided by one-third and analyzed as September, 1982 data. This
practice provides us with a more accurate picture of actual percentaqe distributions
but does not match our actual September, 1982 Sales Tax Returns. These figures
include approximately 2~ retail use taxes that cannot be separated in this type of
analysis.

The Budget column contains the amount of revenue that was estimated during the
budget preparation process. The Actual column shows the total amount of revenue
that Vias recei "r::d duri n9 that fi sea 1 yea 1'; these fi gures come from the i\nnua 1
Financial Repnrt which is presented ever) spring for the previous fiscal year.
The figures represented in the Budget column wel'e estimated twenty months earlier.
This twenty month time lag accounts for a part of the disparity between the budget
and actual amounts. This disparity is measured in the percentage error column;
a figure of 100 is a perfect estimate, less than 100 means the budget underestimated
the revenue, whereas a figure over 100 is an overestimate.
On page 34 Property Tax revenues are analyzed in the financial mode, at the bottom
of the notes column a 1972 - 1982 annual growth rate of 3.98% is shown, this is the
annual percentaqe rate the actual revenues have increased. The policy regarding

FLEET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
FLEET HlINAGEMENT PROGIU\M
The 1984 Budget contains two Dew accounts; 772 - Fleet Repair/ Maintenance and 807 -
Fleet Replacement. These accounts will be the only two expenditure categories in a
ne", Fleet Halntenance Fund that will be created tllrough the 19311 Budget process.
The details of how this fund will function are shown in the next few pages.
The basic principle of this program is that all listed vehicles are "owned" by the
Fleet Haintenance Fund and leased back to user departments. The departments will
use a portion of their budgets to fund Account 772 which will cover the entire cost
of the fleet maintenance program for their vehicles. This includes all personnel,
facilities, equipment, parts, fuel and oil associated with the maintenance and
operation of the fleet. The costs in the 1984 Budget are shOVln on the Fleet Lease
Summary on page ]20 in the H/O Costs column. For example,the City Administrator
will budget $1,584 to cover the costs associated with maintaining and operating the
assigned vehicle in 1984. The cos t of $1,584 \vas determined US ing the 1-1&0 Rates on
the Fleet Leasing Schedule. These rates were arrived at by a thorough analysis of
existing fleet maintenance records. The total of H/O costs \vill equal the 1984 Shops
budget.
The second category in the Fleet Haintenance Fund is funded through Account 807.
This category \vill be used to replace and/or rebuild the fleet. In 1983 all fleet
replacement costs were covered by the Federal Revenue Sharing l'rogram; this amounted
to a budgeted eypenditure of $336,500. Account 807 is desiGned to fund the replacement
of all vehicles I-lHhin the cx5 sting fleet. All additions to the fleet wi 11 have the
full purchase price budgeted in Accounts 808 or 809 and also budget future replacement,
maintenance and operations costs in the Fleet Maintenance Fund. The City Administrator
will budget $1,296 to cover the costs of fleet replacement in Account 807. This cost
was determined usiag the R&D r,ates on the Fleet Leasing Schedule. These rates have
been arrived at tl1rough surveys of other cities and ,He fairly standard because
vehicle costs and useful life are similar in most cities. The total R&D Costs for
1984 on page 120 is $276,652, \...hich is $59,848 less than ,,'as budgeted in 1983.
There are a number of advantages in using this approach to fund the fleet.
* Vehicle costs are distributed back to the departments; "hich
allows a more accurate picture of service delivery costs.
* Money can be budgeted for fleet replacement without the necessity of
making detailed fleet replacement decisions during the budget process.
* The city has more accurate data to use in making long range financial
planning decisions, and is protected from future "hidden" costs of
massive vehicle expenditures in anyone year.
