Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Wheat Ridge
Wheat Ridge, Colorado
We have audIted the general purpose financIal statements of the City of Wheat RIdge for the year
ended December 31, 2000, and have Issued our report thereon dated March 23, 2001 ProfessIOnal
standards require that we proVide you with the follOWIng informatIon related to our audit.
Our Responsibility under Generally Accepted Auditing Standards
As stated In our agreement, our responsibility, as described by professional standards, is to plan and
perform our audIt to obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance about whether the general
purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. Because ofthe concept of reasonable
assurance and because we did not perform a detailed examInatIOn of all transactions, there is a risk
that material errors, Irregularities, or illegal acts, including fraud and defalcations, may eXIst and not
be detected by us.
As part of our audit, we conSIdered the Internal control of the City of Wheat Ridge. Such
considerations were for the purpose of determining our audIt procedures and not to provide any
assurance concerning such Internal control.
Significant Accounting Policies
Management has the responsibilIty for selection and use of appropnate accountIng polIcies. In
accordance with the terms of our engagement letter, we will advise management about the
appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. The significant accounting poliCIes
used by the City of Wheat Ridge are described in Note 1 to the general purpose financial statements.
During the year ended December 31,2000, the City mcreased the capitalIzation limit for fixed assets
from $500 to $1,500 No other accountmg policies were adopted and the applicatIOn of eXlstmg
polIcies was not changed during the year ended December 31, 2000 We noted no transactions
entered into by the City of Wheat Ridge during the year that were both significant and unusual. and
of which, under professional standards, we are required to inform you, or transactions for which
there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus.

Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the general purpose financial statements prepared by
management and are based on management's current judgments. Certain accounting estimates are
partIcularly sensitIve because of theIr significance to the general purpose financial statements and
because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from
management's current judgments. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop
the estimates in determinIng that they are reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as
a whole.
Significant Audit Adjustments
For purposes ofthis letter, professional standards define a significant audit adjustment as a proposed
correction of the general purpose financial statements that, in our judgment, may not have been
detected except through our auditing procedures. We proposed no audit adjustments that we belIeve
have a significant effect on the City's financial reporting process.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a
matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, concerning a financial accounting, reporting, or
auditing matter that could be significant to the general purpose financial statements or the auditors'
report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audIt.
Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and
accounting matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation
involves application of an accounting principle to the City's general purpose financial statements or
a determinatIOn of the type of auditors' opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our
professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determIne that the
consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other
accountants.
Issues Discussed Prior to Acceptance of Independent Auditors
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management pnor to acceptance as the City's auditors. However, these
discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationshIp and our responses were
not a condition to our accepting the engagement.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties while performing our audit. However, we would like to
bring the following Items to the attention of management and the Council.
2
Fund Structure and Transfers Between Funds
As we have discussed in previous years, the City accounts for many separate funds. Many of the
activities m these funds could be accounted for in the General Fund. Maintaining these numerous
funds requires much additional tIme and effort for the accountmg and budget staff. In addition,
many transfers are made between funds, which further complicates the accounting system.
We recommend that the fund structure of the City be evaluated before the next budget cycle, to
elIminate unneeded funds.
Grant Reimbursements
For two consecutive years, the City has not requested reimbursement for the COPS grants for the
entire year, untIl after the end of the year Most grants allow periodic reimbursements so the City
is not required to fund the grant expenditures for long periods of time. We would suggest that all
grant reimbursements be submitted on a timely basis, eIther monthly or quarterly This would allow
the CIty to use, and earn lllterest on, these monies, rather than subsidizing the grant programs.
Buildmg Permit Revenue
The CIty'S building permit system IS not integrated with the general ledger As a result, it is dIfficult
to determine if fees collected by the building department are deposited into the bank, and recorded
in the general ledger Also, the building permit system appears to be outdated and difficult to use
when information is needed. The City may want to consider updating the building permit system
and integrating It WIth the general ledger
Conclusion
We would like to thank Ron Patera, Linda Stengel, and the City staff for their assistance and
cooperation during the audit. Everyone at the City was very helpful.
This information is intended solely for the use of management and the City Council of the CIty of
Wheat Ridge, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified
parties.
Very truly yours,
~~(~U&-

ACCOUNTING SYSTEM AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
In developing and evaluatmg the City's accountmg system, consideratIOn IS given to the
adequacy of lI1ternal controls. Internal accountmg controls are designed to provide reasonable,
but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguardmg of assets against loss from unauthorized
use or disposition and thc reltabtlity of finanCial records for prepanng finanCial statements and
mall1tamll1g accountabtllty for assets The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the
cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and the evaluation of costs
and benefits requires estimates and judgements by management.
The City of Wheat Ridge uses funds and account groups to report on ItS finanCial position and
the results of its operations. Fund accounting IS designed to show legal compliance and to aid
finanCial management by segregatwg transactIOns related to certain government functions or
activities. The City has a general fund where all the currcnt operatIons of the City are recorded,
a capital projects fund where all major drainage, street, traffic, and bUlldwg projects are
recorded, and 23 other smaller funds are established for a particular purpose The two account
groups - fixed assets and general long-term debt - are concerncd only With the measurement of
financIal pOSitIOn and thus do not record results of operations.
The budget process begms 111 Apnl and ends with the adoption by CIty Councll before December
15 each year. Budgets are adopted on a NON-GAAP basIs uSll1g the encumbrance basIs of
accounting, except the Debt Service and Internal Service Funds which are GAAP basIs.
The level of budgetary control (the level at which expenditures and encumbrances cannot legally
exceed the appropnated amount) IS establtshed at the mdlvidual fund level. The budget IS then
mtegrated mto the formal accountmg system January I of each year. If dunng the fiscal year,
the City Admmlstratlon determll1es that there are available for appropnatlOn revenues in excess
of those estImated 111 the budget, the CounCil, by resolution, may make supplemental
appropnatlOns for the year up to the amount of the excess. AdditIOnal budgetary contraIlS
mall1tamed by the encumbrance of purchase amounts prior to the release of purchase orders to
vendors. Encumbrances present COml11ltments related to unperformed contracts for goods or
services. Open encumbrances are reported as reservatIons of fund balance at year end.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFIC4NT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Contll1ued)
FUNDS AND ACCOUNT GROUPS (Contll1ued)
ACCOUNT GROUPS
Gencral Fixed Asset Account Group u Fixed assets used 111 governmental fund type
operatIOns (general fixed assets) are accounted for 111 the General Fixed Asset Account
Group, rather than 111 the governmental funds. No deprecIation has been provlded on
general fixed assets.
General Long-Term Dcbt Account Group u Long-term lIabilIties expected to be
financed from governmental funds are accounted for 111 the General Long-Term Debt
Account Group, not 111 the governmental funds.
The account groups are not "funds" They are concerned only With the measurement of
finanCIal posItion. They arc not lI1volved With measurement of results of operatIOns.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
The accountll1g and financial reportll1g treatment applIed to a fund IS determll1ed by its
measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current finanCIal
resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and
current lIabIlIties gencrally are Il1cluded on the balance sheet. Operatll1g statements of
these funds present lI1creases (I e., revenues and other financll1g sources) and decreases
(i.e , expenditures and other financll1g uses) 111 nct current assets.
The propnetary fund and pension trust fund are accounted for on a flow of economic
resources measurement focus. With thiS measurement focus, all assets and all liabilIties
assocIated with the operatIOn of these funds are included on the balance sheet. Fund eqUIty
for the propnetary fund (I.e., net total assets) is segregated Il1to contributed capital and
retamed earnings components. Propnetary fund type operatmg statements present
lI1creases (e.g., revenues) and dccreases (e.g., expenses) m net total assets.
The modified accrual basis of accountll1g is used by all governmental funds and the agency
fund. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when
susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both measurable and available).
"Measurable" means the amount of the transactIOn can be determined and "available"
means collectible wlthll1 the cun'ent penod or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay the
lIabIlities of the currcnt penod. Expenditures are generally recognized when the related
fund lIabilIty IS lI1curred.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Contmued)
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING (Contmued)
The accounting and reportll1g treatment applIed to the fixed assets and long-term liabilitIes
associated with a fund are determined by ItS measurement focus.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual are sales taxes, property taxes, franchise taxes,
interest, and grants. FlI1es and permit revenues are not susceptible to accrual as they
generally are not measurable untIl receIved m cash.
The accrual baSIS of accountmg IS used by all propnetary and pension trust fund types.
Under thiS method, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recogl1lzed at
the tune lIabilIties are incurred.
For its proprietary fund type, the City has elected not to apply Financial Accountmg
Standards Board (F ASB) statements and mterpretatlOns Issued after November 30, 1989
Agency Funds are custodIal 111 nature and do not mvolve measurcment of the results of
operations.
-
Deferred revenues anse when a potentia] revenue does not meet both the "measurable" and
"avaIlable" cnteria for recognitIOn m the current penod. Deferred revenues also arisc
when resources are received by the City before it has a legal claun to them, as when grant
mOllles are received pnor to the mcurrence of qualIfymg expenditures. In subsequent
penods, when both revcnue recogllltlOn cntena are met, or when the CIty has a legal claIm
to the resources, thc lIabIlIty for dcferrcd revenue lS removed from the balance sheet and
revenue is recognized.
BUDGETS
The City follows these procedures m establishing the budgetary data reflected in the
finanCial statements'
o In September, the City AdmmistratJon submits to the City CouncIl a proposed
operatll1g budget for the fiscal year commencmg the following January 1 The
operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means offinancmg them.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
BUDGETS (Continued)
o Any budget reVISions that alter the total cxpendltures of any fund must be approved
by the City CouncIl
o Budgets are legally adopted for all funds of the City except the Trust and Agency
Funds. Budgets for the General, SpeClal Revenue, and Capital ProJects Funds are
adopted on a non-GAAP basis using the encumbrance method. Budgetary
comparisons presented for the Debt Service and Internal Service Funds are presented
on a basIs consistent with generally accepted accountmg pnnClples (GAAP)
o Budgeted amounts 111 the finanClal statements are as ongll1ally adopted or as
amended by the City CouncIl All approprIatIOns lapse at year end. Colorado
governments may not legally exceed budgeted approprIatIOns by fund.
CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash equivalents include Investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Investments are recorded at fair value
INTERFUND RECEIV ABLES/PAY ABLES
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds.
The resultll1g receivables and payables are classified on the balance sheet as "due from
other funds" and "due to other funds" because they are short-term 111 nature.
Noncurrent portions oflong-term interfund loan receivables are reported as advances and
are offset equally by a fund balance reserve account which indicates that they do not
constitute expendable available financial resources and therefore are not available for
appropnatlOn.
FIXED ASSETS
Property and equipment acqUIsitions made by the governmental funds are accounted for
as expenditures of the fund, and are then capitalized in the general fixed assets account
group All purchased property and equipment are valued at cost, whIle donated assets are
valued at their estimated fair marKet value as of the date received as a donatIOn. The City
capitalIzes all assets valued at $1,500 or greater with a life In excess of one year

exceedmg 60 days at one-half their current rate of pay
-
Accumulated unpaid vacatIOn and Sick pay IS accrued when earned. Amounts expected

Compensated Absences Debt Service Fund. Accumulated pay not expected to be paid
from available resources IS reported in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group.
LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
Long-term debt is recognlzed as a liabilIty of a governmental fund when due, or when
resourCes have been accumulated 111 the debt service fund for payment carly m the
followmg year For other long-term oblIgatIOns, only that portion expected to be financed
from expendable financial resources is reported as a fund liability of a governmental fund.
The remainmg portion of such obligations IS reported in the General Long-Term Debt
Account Group Long-term liabilIties expected to be financed from proprietary fund
operations are accounted for in that fund.
FUND EQUITY
Reserves represent those p0l11Ons of fund equity not appropnable for expenditure or
legally segregated for a specific future use. Designated fund balances represent tentative
plans for future use of financial resources.

Tabor Amendment u Colorado voters passed an amendment to the State Constitution,
Article X, Section 20, which has several limitations, lI1c1udIng revenue raising, spending
abilities, and other specific reqUIrements of state and local governments. The Amendment
requires, with certall1 exceptions, advance voter approval for any new tax, tax rate increase,
mill levy above that for the pnor year, extension of an expiring tax, or tax polIcy change
directly causing a net tax revenue gain to the City.
Revenue in excess of the fiscal year spendmg limit must be refunded in the next fiscal year
unless voters approve retention of such revenue. The City's management believes it is In

and subjcct to interpretation. Many of its provisions may require Judicial interpretation.
The City has establIshed an emergency reserve, representing 3 % of qualIfymg expenditures,
