D-2 GRUENLER _ HUEBNER 90 Madison Street Denver, Colorado 80206 (3031 388-4181 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.

CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS DECEMBER 31, 1983 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 General Fund The General Fund is the City. It is used to cial resources except accounted for in another the operating fund of account for all finan- those required to be fund. Special Revenue Funds Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than special assessments, expendable trusts, or major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. Special Revenue Funds of the City include the following: Building Demolition Fund The Building Demolition Fund was estab- lished, dur ing 1981, as a revolving fund. Structures are demolished at city expense, the property owner is then billed for the cost of demolition. CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Capital Improvement Fund The Capi tal Improvement Fund (former ly Sales Tax Improvement Fund) was established to account for funds received as a result of a one percent increase in the City's sales tax. The expenditures of this fund are to be used for capital expenditures as approved by City Council. Federal Revenue Sharing Fund The Federal Revenue Sharing Fund was established to account for those funds re- ceived through the "State and Local Fiscal Assistance Act of 1972, as amended." This Act provides funds to units of local govern- ments to be used for ordinary and necessary maintenance, operating expenses, and capital expenditures authorized by law. The Act also specifies certain restrictions and procedural requirements. Park Acquisition Fund The Park Acquisition Fund was estab- lished to account for funds received and designated for use in the acquisition of additional parklands and improvements. Senior Center Fund The Senior Center Fund was established during 1981 to account for contributions made to the Senior Center. The expenditures of this fund are used to support activities of the center. Urban Renewal Fund The Urban Renewal Author i ty was estab- lished during 1981, with seed money from the Ci ty of Wheat Ridge to be responsible for and seek to accomplish the redevelopment and rehabili tation of blighted areas. Revenue is currently being received from a one per- cent sales tax levied on resident living within the authority boundaries and from interest on invested funds. Future revenue may come from bond issues or other sources (see note 4). Fiduciary Fund Types Trust and Agency Funds Trust and Agency Funds for assets held by the are used to account City in a trustee CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 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. B. FIXED ASSET AND LONG-TERM LIABILITIES Fixed operations assets used in governmental fund type are accounted of in the General Fixed CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Asset Group of Accounts, funds. No depreciation general fixed assets. rather than governmental has been prov ided for on All fixed assets are valued at histor ical cost or estimated histor ical cost if actual histor ical cost is not available. Contributed fixed assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date of gift. Land improvements transferred to the City from Jefferson County in 1969, have been recorded at the County's historical cost, subsequent additions have been recorded at cost, until 1977, at which time the Ci ty elected to discontinue recording the cost of land improvements. The Jefferson County Open Space Program acquires land for public enjoyment (e.g., parks, playgrounds, lakes, etc.) and then donates the land to the City for use as public land. The land is recorded at the cost of land to the Open Space Program. Long term liabilities expected to from governmental funds are accounted General Long-Term Debt Account Group, governmental funds. be financed for in the not in the The two account groups are not n funds". They are concerned only with the measurement of financial position. They are not involved with measurement of results of operations. 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). CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) 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 CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 9. ENTITY CHANGES (Continued) 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.

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. 1 -- GENERAL FUND REVENUE 100- 4.3% miscellaneous revenue 9.3% 90- 16.2% other taxes 80- 14.5% 70- % 14.3% Intergovernmental 60- 23.3% Revenues 2.9% l~ 7.5% I..LI 50- => z: I..LI property >- I..LI 18% c:r: 0 40- z: => LJ.. ...J c:( 49.4% c:r: I..LI 30- z: I..LI sales and use taxes t!)

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. 2 -1 80 1 15.2% < -.;:l E-< General Government 24.6% .., I , 70 ..--I '" X -1 1 "Z ::J 60 Ii< ! ~ 45.3% w , 50- 24.7% I l fl..4 0 I J "< 40 [oi ---- ~ ,<1 ~ 30 100 90 20 10 GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES 10.5% Parks & Recreation 14.6% 29.0% Police 36.1% o I I I I I I r I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 This graph shows the relative distribution of General Fund Expenditures from 1971 on. All departments have gained proportionately except Public Works, since 1978 the expenditure trend has remained fairly constant. General Government includes Community Development, Finance, Mayor~ City Council, City Administrator, Municipal Court, City Clerk and City Attorney. 3 $75 - 62.5- 50 37.5- c:( I- - 0- c:( u 25 - c:r: LLI 0- V) c:r: c:( -I -I 0 Cl 12.5- 4 COMPARATIVE FINANCIAL RECORD Real Growth I I I I I I I I I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 This graph corresponds to the graph on page 5 but the values are adjusted for inflation using the Consumer Price Index data shown on page 17. $101 100- e:( I- .....

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. 5 $ 175- 150- 125- 100- ex: I- ..... 0- 5 75- 0:: LLI 0- Vl 0:: c<: j 50- o Cl 25- o - GENERAL FUND REVENUES PER CAPITA ;r"' / , / / / / / / / " " ~ r / " / / ," ... - / / ------------actual dollars adjusted for C.P.I. $195 , / / / / / , , / I I / / /' " ;' $82 I I I I I I I I I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 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. 6 GENERAL FUND SALES AND USE TAX REVENUE 3.0- tI) n:. <:( -1 _J c) o::::l ..... 2.0- o tI) z a ..... -1 -1 ..... ::E: 2 .91/~ I I I I / " / / , I -' .,. .,. / / / I , I I - -.... -- 1.22M ,. , " ~ / -' 1.0- /' ,. , -- -------------Actual Revenues Adjusted for C.P.I.

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. 7 600- 500- (/) 0:: c:( -J -' o o ll- 400- o (/) Cl Z c:( (/) ~ ~ 300- t- 200- 100- 8 PROPERTY TAX REVENUES ...,-- --- -- -~ -- $442,347 ..r- - , --- --- -- -- -- $185,786 ------------Actual Revenues Adjusted for C.P.I.

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. 900- 800- 700- tI) 600- ~ c:x; -J -' 0 0 u.. 500- 0 tI) 0 z c:x; tI) :::> 400- 0 :c .- 300- 200- 100- GENERAL FUND INTERGOVERNMENTAL REVENUE , I , I " I I I I.

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. 9 15%- r..

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. 1 1 uollars per capita 175- 150- 125-' .100- 12 GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES PER CAPITA )178 I / I I I . , " / " ./ / " " ...

Since 1974 the real growth rate in expenditures has been zero. 1. 6%- 1. 5'1;-- 1. 4 %- 1. 3%- 1.2%- 1. 1%- PER CAPITA RATIO Annual General Fund Expenditures Average Wheat Ridge Per Capita Income I I I I I 1 I I I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 The above graph shows a fairly constant relationship between Wheat Ridge General Fund per capita expenditures and the A~eraqe Wheat Ridge Per Capita 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 are remarkably constant. 13 I I I I I I I I I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 This graph shows that the fund balance growth has been dramatic since 1974. In the period 1974 - 1981 the fund balance has experienced an annual real growth rate of 53~. Since the real arowth in expenditures since 1974 has been zero all of the real revenue growth has gone towards producing a larger fund balance. 14 l/l W c:r: ::::J I- ~ D Z - W c... >< w u.. o w o c( I- Z uJ U c:r: W c... 150%- 140%- 130%- 120%- 110%- 100%- 90%- Self SUPi'ort USER CHARGES MUNICIPAL COURT \ ---------_._---~--------------- Level I I I I I I I I I I I I 1971 1972 1973 1974 1975 1976 1977 1978 1979 1980 1981 1982 The above graph shows that since 1974 the Municipal Court has been consistantly self-supporting,with a dramatic increase in court fine revenue that is shown in 1982. 15 100%- USER CHARGES RECREATION Self Support Level --------------------------------------------------------- 90%- 80%- 70%- U) w cr: :::> I- ......

This level appears to be stabilizing at around 50~. 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.

Every adopted budget wi 11 ba 1 ance proj ected reven'Jes and projected exoenditures. Use of transfers from other funds or the fund balance will be minimized because of the long-term negative effects of using a one-time revenue source to balance the budget. EXPENDITURE AND REVENUE REPORTING The City will prepare a mont.hly report comoaring actua revenues and expenditures with budgeted revenues and expenditures. This is the current practice. FLEET MANAGEMENT DEPRECIATION FUND Through the use of a f1 eet manac]ement fund, the Ci ty will annuCilly Judqet sufficient fi.mds for t'\2 regular maintenance, repair and replacement of all City vehicl: This fund will be establish0d and monies budgeted beginning with the 1984 Budget. ti:AIrm:r:":C:E OF C,t.PITf,L f"\SS'::TS The adopted operating budget will provide sufficient funds for the regular repair and maintenance of all City of Wheat Ridge capital assets. The budget should not be balanced by deferring these expenditures. Through the budget process appropriate expenditure levels will be determined. EMPLOYEE PAY The City of Wheat Ridqe will pay its employees on a parity basis with pay plans of similar cities in the Denver Metropolitan area.

INVESTMENT PHILOSOPHY Implementation Policy Statement The City of Wheat Ridge will make use of pooled cash to invest under the prudent investor rule. The prudent investor rule is that investments shall be made with the exercise of that judgement and care, under circumstances then prevailing, which men of prudence, discretion and intelligence exercise in the management of their own affairs, not for specu- lation but for investment, considering the probable safety of their capital as well as the probable income to be derived. Implementation The City Treasurer is r2~po1sible for all of Wheat Ri dge 's i nves t'T1ent:s, 3rid e'!a 1 ua tps a 11 i nves tment opportunities wlth respect to this policy.

Implementation In the annual budget process this policy shall be carried out, the present unappropriated reserve percentage is approximately 8.2% 25 CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE, COLORADO THIS PAGE LEFT BLANK I:UENTIONALLY 26 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. 27 SALES TAX SOURCES by m:mber and type of business 41- Food Stores - 33.2% 10- Liquor Stores - 8.3% Public Utilities - 9.7% 9- Drug Stores - 3.0% 24- Wholesale Trade - 1.1% 22- Building Materials, Garden Supply, Hardware, and t.lobile Home Dealers-_4.3~ 69- Auto Dealers and Gas Stations- 4.3~ 24- Apparel and Accessory Stores- 3.9% 53- Furniture, Home Furnishinq an Equipment Stores- 2.6:'~ 95- Services- 5.4%~ Home based business- .3% ) Out of Town business- 1.9% - * September 19B2 is used as the data base for this information 28 ~ ~1-7 .. -.-----,..,~.--f'--.~.......-. ......r;-- 11.'.7!)(') ;. -~ J ~-~=. - ..- ~\~I !f..',:.I, \l.. l_~ ,-- .-~, .. , , -: ,.::J . .-l:. ._~ j [~ , , ..

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. 119 CITY OF WHEAT RIDGE -:FLEET LEASE SmfHARY- DIVISION NO.
