Dr.William W. Bums, City Manager
Mayor Nancy Jorgenson and Council Members
Fridley, Minnesota 55432
Dear Dr. Bums, Mayor Jorgenson and Council Members:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of Fridley, Minnesota, for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 1999, is submitted herewith:
The organization, form, and contents of this report were prepared in accordance with the standards
prescribed by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada, the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, and
the Minnesota State Auditor's Office. The Government Finance Officers Association awards Certificates
of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to those governments whose annual financial
reports are judged to conform substantially with high standards of public financial reporting including
generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by the Governmental Accounting Standards
Board. The City of Fridley was awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting for its annual financial report for the fiscal year 1998. It is our belief that the accompanying
fiscal year 1999 financial report continues to meet program standards and it will be submitted to the
Government Finance Officers Association for review.
_. This report was prepared by the City's finance staff and consists of three sections:
Section I is the introductory section and contains the table of contents, letter of transmittal, and
other appropriate material.
Section II is the financial section and contains the auditors' opinion, the combined financial
statements, notes to the financial statements, combining statements, individual fund statements,
and account group statements.
Section III is the statistical section that includes the previous year's financial and non-financial data.
Responsibility for both the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of the
presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the City. We believe that the data, as presented, is
accurate in all material aspects, that it is presented in a manner designed to fairly set forth the financial
position and results of operations of the City as measured by the financial activity of its various funds,
and that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the City's
financial activity have been included.

a-
The City's financial statements include all funds and account groups. Services provided by the City
include police and fire protection; water and sanitary sewer utilities; the construction and maintenance of
- streets and infrastructure; recreational activities and cultural events. In addition to general government
activities, the activities of the Fridley Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) have been included
since they serve the entire City and the City Council has the ability to control the actions of the HRA.
However, the Fridley School Districts and the Fridley Volunteer Firefighters Relief Association have not
met the established criteria for inclusion in the reporting entity, and accordingly are excluded from this
report.
GENERAL INFORMATION
BACKGROUND AND LOCATION
The City of Fridley is an older metropolitan community with an estimated 1999 population of 28,623.
The City is located just north of downtown Minneapolis and covers 11 square miles of area. The City
was incorporated July 1, 1949 and is currently committed to redevelopment. With the help of the
Housing and Redevelopment Authority, the City has been successful in attracting new industries as well
as completing redevelopment projects.
LOCAL ECONOMY
The Minneapolis-St. Paul area economy has continued to be relatively stable over the last several years.
Unemployment for Anoka County has ranged around 3% for the last several years with very little
change. Fridley is home to the largest amount of employees in Anoka County. Approximately 22,000
employees work in over 800 businesses across Fridley.
Long term growth in Fridley's economy will result from redevelopment projects which will create the
opportunity for new construction. The City has averaged $37 million in building permit valuation over the
last three years. The future economy of Fridley will be further bolstered by the construction of Medtronic
Inc.'s World Headquarters. In 1999, Medtronic initiated construction of the 1,000,000 square foot
corporate office space campus. Phase I is about 520,000 square feet. The estimated market value of
the project will be well over$100 million. About 3,000 new employees are anticipated to work out of the
new campus. The existing Medtronic campus will become the company's Cardiac Division
headquarters. It is extremely unusual for a community of Fridley's size to have two corporate campuses
within its borders.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
During 1999, the City continued its focus on the quality of the housing stock within the City and enjoyed
continued success with the 5% home remodeling program. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority
maintains this revolving loan fund for home remodeling loans. It is projected that the loan pool will "pay
for itself" in fifteen years. With 1999 activity, 240 loans have been closed, totaling $3,007,181. In
addition, 15 remodeling loans totaling $172,000 were provided to rental owners to improve apartment
buildings since 1993. These programs help residents improve and maintain their properties. They also
encourage residents to stay in Fridley by being able to improve their existing home instead of losing a
resident to the outlying communities.
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority has also sponsored five successful remodeling fairs and
hired a part time "Remodeling Advisor" to assist homeowners with their remodeling ideas. In 1999, the
Authority, in conjunction with 14 other metropolitan cities, published an award winning planbook entitled:
"Cape Cods and Ramblers: A Remodeling Planbook for Post-WW II Houses. The planbook won the
National League of Cities "Innovation Award" in 1999.
11
CITY OF FRIDLEY,MINNESOTA
GENERAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
An extensive amount of remodeling activity took place in Fridley in 1998, primarily as a result of a major
storm. This activity continued into 1999, although to a lesser extent than 1998. Over 1,600 permits
were issued for new windows, roofs, or new siding, which is two times the typical number of permits.
The valuation for residential permit activity was also the highest in 10 years, totaling $15.4 million. This
means a significant part of the City's housing stock was dramatically improved.
The redevelopment of the Southwest Quadrant, an area bounded by University Avenue and Mississippi
Street, began in 1995 with the HRA acquiring four apartment buildings and a number of businesses.
Rottlund Homes was selected as the developer and has completed the construction of the 118 owner
occupied units. All of the 118 units have been constructed and sold.
In addition, a new senior housing facility, Banfill Crossing, was also constructed. It contains 108 one —,
and two bedroom apartment units. About 40% of the units must be rented to households who have
incomes below 60% of area median income.
Since the City's warehouse liquor store was one of the businesses required to relocate as the Southwest
Quadrant project moved forward, the City continued to search for potential sites for a new liquor store
while the relocated store maintained its presence in the Holly Shopping Center. In 1999, the City
executed a lease agreement with Lyndale Terminal Co. to lease 13,000 square feet within the Cub ..
Foods facility on 57th Avenue and 1-694.
Commercial and industrial activity continued to flourish, with a total valuation increase of $32.5 million.
In the commercial category, Friendly Chevrolet expanded its facilities with a 22,000 square foot shop
expansion. Holiday Station Stores opened two new facilities. In the industrial category, Sheet Metal
Connectors expanded by 50,000 square feet, Toolcraft Inc. by 20,000 square feet, Alltemp Distribution,
by 30,000 square feet, and Barole Trucking built two new buildings totaling 77,000 square feet.
In addition to the Medtronic project, Cummins Power Generation and Murphy Warehouse teamed up to
build a 406,000 square foot warehouse facility on the existing Cummins Campus on 73`d Avenue. The
parcel was part of a partial contamination cleanup previously conducted by the previous owner, Boise ..
Cascade. In order to make this parcel buildable, the developer obtained pollution cleanup funds from
the Department of Trade and Economic Development and the Metropolitan Council's Tax Base
Revitalization Fund. The $960,000 of grant assistance was required to make the parcel buildable. The
project will create$500,000 per year in annual taxes.
Both the Medtronic and the Cummins project received awards from City Business for "Best in Real
Estate in 1999" in their respective categories (Corporate Office and Industrial).
Internally, the 2000 budget work sessions were relatively free from major budgetary issues. The gap
between revenues and expenditures widened in the 2000 budget from the 1999 budget. Much of the
discussion at the work sessions focused on addressing this widening gap. The budget sessions ended .,
with no increase in property taxes and the planned use of$1,123,365 of reserves resulting in a balanced
2000 budget that Council adopted in December.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The future of the City of Fridley, like all units of government is filled with change and restructuring. The
federal deficit and changes in state revenue have and will continue to have a trickle down effect to lower
levels. Cities are faced with the problems of financing their own traditional levels of service while
simultaneously coping with cuts in intergovernmental revenues and the implementation of both federal
and state mandates. The City applauds the efforts of the Minnesota State Legislature in their attempt to
curtail unfunded state mandates. The City will continue to investigate new funding and cost sharing
alternatives as well as reviewing our operations in order to decrease the reliance on intergovernmental
revenues.
12
CITY OF FRIDLEY,MINNESOTA
GENERAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Implementation of an imaging system continued during 1999. This project will increase the availability of
data and the efficiency in which City staff can access it and respond to resident's requests.
The most significant project in the City's history was approved in early 1999. Medtronic, Inc.will build its
world headquarters at the Fridley Executive Center site at the northwest corner of T.H. 65 and 1-694.
First phase construction began in June 1999 on 520,000 square feet of development. Ultimately, the
site may be developed up to 1.6 million square feet, and at minimum, 1 million square feet of corporate
office space is planned.
The first phase (estimated value at $46 million) will consist of five buildings. The centerpiece of the
development will be the corporate headquarters office, which will be flanked by two additional buildings,
the Research Center and the Education Center. The fourth building will be the headquarters for the
Neurological Division of the company. Finally, the fifth building will house the support functions of the
development including the employee cafeteria, resource center, auditorium and fitness center.
Multi-level parking ramps are necessary to provide adequate parking for the campus. The ramps for the
first phase will be six levels(two below grade)and will contain about 1,000 parking spaces.
Medtronic anticipates that the project,when fully developed, will create 3,000 new jobs.
Significant projects budgeted for 2000 in the five year capital improvement plan include: The remodeling
of the Municipal Center's reception area; upgrading picnic tables and park benches in City parks; a
major street reconstruction project on some of the streets bordering the Melody Manor neighborhood;
and the annual well, reservoir and pump house maintenance programs.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
INTERNAL CONTROLS
In developing and improving the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of
internal accounting controls. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not
absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition and the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining
accountability 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 judgments by management.
All internal control evaluations occur within the above framework. We believe that the City's internal
accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of the proper
recording of financial transactions.
BUDGETARY CONTROLS
A complete budgetary system of accounts is maintained for the General and Special Revenue Funds.
Budgetary control is maintained in compliance with the City Charter Requirements. The Charter
provides that it is the duty of the City Manager to strictly enforce the provisions of the budget. The
management policy of the City is such that the existence of a particular item or appropriation in the
approved budget does not mean that it will or must be automatically expended. It is the policy of the
City to control budgets at the expenditure category level. Budget adjustments between City divisions
are made upon the approval of a resolution by the City Council. The City Charter provides that the City
Council shall not have power to increase the total amount of the budget, whether by insertion of new
items or otherwise, beyond the estimated revenue unless the actual revenue exceeds such revenue
estimates, and in that event not beyond such actual revenue. There is a constant review process.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
Expenditures are not approved until it has been determined that 1) the expenditure is necessary, 2)
adequate funds have been appropriated, and 3)funds are available.
CASH MANAGEMENT
All temporary cash surpluses during the year are invested in various securities which State statutes
permit. The City's policy is to invest all available monies at competitive interest rates in accordance with
the City's over-all fiscal plan coordinated with operating needs and programs projected over the ensuing
12 month period. Investment yields on investments held during the year ranged from 5.1%to 6.5%.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Net general bonded debt per capita and the percentage of the net general bonded debt to taxable value
are useful indicators of the City's debt position. At December 31, 1999 the City of Fridley's debt service
funds provided sufficient capital to cover the net general bonded debt.
The City has numerous debt issues outstanding totaling $20,080,000. Of this outstanding debt,
$1,070,000 represents special assessment debt with government commitment, $13,685,000 represents
general obligation tax increment refunding bonds, $5,325,000 represents general obligation water, ..
sewer and storm water revenue bonds.
The City of Fridley has, since 1982, maintained a credit rating of Aa1 on its long-term bonds.
FISCAL DISPARITIES
The commonly referred to "Fiscal Disparity Law" was adopted by the Legislature in 1971. The area of .g
the fiscal disparity district encompasses all the properties located within the seven-county metropolitan
area. The law provides that 40% of all new commercial/industrial property valuations or growth be
placed in an area wide"pool,"and shared according to specific criteria.
TAX INCREMENT DISTRICTS
The City Council took action on May 7, 1979 to form the first of twelve tax increment districts. In 1985,
the individual districts were combined into one redevelopment district to more easily manage the overall
activities. All of the districts have been established in economically depressed areas within the City.
With the successful relationship that the City and the Housing and Redevelopment Authority have
developed, many benefits have been derived. -�

GENERAL GOVERNMENT FUNCTIONS
The following schedule presents a summary of the General, Special Revenue, Debt Service, Capital
Projects and Expendable Trust Funds' revenues for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
The most significant changes in revenues from the prior year were decreases in charges for services,
investment income, and miscellaneous. Charges for services decreased by$222,729 mainly due to the
closing of the City's recycling center in 1999. Investment income decreased by $474,847 due to rising
interest rates in 1999 and the associated decline in value of securities with longer maturities. The
miscellaneous decrease of $47,851 was due primarily to the decline in donations for the Fridley
Community Center.

Projects and Expendable Trust Funds' expenditures for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999.
The most significant changes in expenditures from the prior year were in the municipal center and debt
service categories. The increase in municipal center is primarily due to higher maintenance costs. The
decrease in debt service is due to 1998 being unusually high due to the refunding of a bond issue.

CITY OF FRIDLEY,MINNESOTA
FINANCIAL INFORMATION (CONTINUED)
General Fund Balance ..,
The fund balance is used to provide working capital for the fund until tax settlements and state aids are
received in July and December of each year, to provide funds for unknown events which could have an
adverse effect on the fund, and to help finance future budgets. In 1990 the City Council adopted a --
formal policy designating portions of the general fund's fund balance for working capital, subsequent
year's expenditures, contingencies and for replacement of fixed assets at the end of each fiscal year.
ENTERPRISE OPERATIONS
The Enterprise Funds account for the financing of services to the general public in which all or most of
the costs involved are paid in the form of charges by the users of such services. In the City of Fridley,
Enterprise Funds are used to account for the operation of the public utility system and three municipal
liquor stores. Except for ownership, Enterprise Funds bear a close resemblance to privately owned
utility or service enterprises.
Liquor Fund
The Liquor Fund was established to account for the operation and financing of the City-owned municipal
liquor stores. The City operates three liquor stores, one at 6289 Highway 65, one next to Cub Foods,
and the other in the Holly Shopping Center. The City owns the store at the Highway 65 location and
currently leases space for the other two stores. In 1984, the City changed its sales philosophy to the
wholesale approach so that we could remain competitive with the three neighboring communities that •-•
use wholesale pricing. Retained earnings of the Liquor Fund were $1,956,940 on December 31, 1999
as compared to $1,919,315 at the closing of the prior fiscal year. Income before operating transfers
decreased from $266,980 in 1998 to $207,625 in 1999. This decrease is primarily due to the expense
involved in opening a third store. r`
Public Utilities Fund
This fund accounts for the operation and financing of the City-owned sewer and water systems.
Included in the assets of the fund is a receivable from the Metropolitan Council Environmental Service
Division of $25,915 representing the City's share of the equity in the Minneapolis Sewer System that
was acquired by the Metropolitan Council on January 1, 1971.
The assets for the Water and Sewer Distribution system, originally financed by special assessments,
were transferred from General Fixed Assets to the Public Utilities Fund in 1978. Additional Fixed Assets
were transferred in 1979, 1984, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994 and 1995. Those improvements to
the utility system paid for or financed directly by the Public Utilities Fund have always been carried in the
Public Utilities Fund and depreciated. Retained earnings on December 31, 1999 were $14,175,791
compared to$13,954,194 at the close of the prior fiscal year.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Self Insurance Fund was set up to account for all revenues and expenditures associated with the
$50,000 deductible on the general liability policy. Self insuring a larger deductible has reduced the
annual premiums which allow us to directly benefit from our good experience rating. In the future an
analysis will be made of the feasibility of self insuring all or a portion of other policies. In 1990,
$1,000,000 was transferred from the General Fund to the Self Insurance Fund. Beginning in 1999, the
City began self insuring for the health care coverage for City employees. The City and its employees
contribute into the Self Insurance Fund and claims are paid out to a third party administrator which
handles the paperwork. An insurance policy purchased out of this fund, kicks in when claims for an •-
individual exceed $15,000 during a twelve-month period.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
- City of Fridley,Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying general purpose fmancial statements of the City of
Fridley, Minnesota, as of and for the year ended December 31, 1999 as listed in the table of
contents. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City of
- Fridley,Minnesota's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
general purpose financial statements based on our audit.
- We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the
standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and
- perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose fmancial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall general purpose financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion,the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects,the financial position of the City of Fridley, Minnesota, as of December 31,
1999, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its proprietary fund types for the year
then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards,we have also issued a report dated May
10, 2000 on our consideration of the City of Fridley, Minnesota's internal control over
financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws,
regulations, contracts, and grants. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in
accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this
report in considering the results of our audit.

CITY OF FRIDLEY. MINNESOTA
- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The City of Fridley was incorporated July 1, 1949, under Chapter 410.03 of the Statutes of the State of
Minnesota providing for a council-manager form of government under the "Home Rule Charter City"
concept. The City provides the following services as authorized by its charter: general administrative
services, public safety (police and fire), public improvements, planning and zoning, and culture and
recreation.
The accounting policies of the City of Fridley conform to generally accepted accounting policies applicable
to governmental units. The following is a summary of the more significant policies:
A. Principles used in the determination of the scope of the Governmental entity
The City has implemented Government Accounting Standards Boards Statement 14, The
Financial Reporting Entity. As required by Statement 14, these financial statements present the
City and its component units. The component unit discussed below is included in the reporting
entity because of the significance of their operation and financial relationship with the City.
— Discretely Presented Component Unit - The Fridley Housing and Redevelopment
Authority (HRA) is governed by commissioners appointed by the Fridley City Council. The
HRA is responsible for providing housing and redevelopment assistance to the City and its
residents. Funding for the various programs administered by the HRA is provided through the
issuance of tax increment revenue bonds and general obligation tax increment bonds
guaranteed by the City. Complete financial statements of the HRA may be obtained from
William W. Burns, Executive Director, 6431 University Avenue NE, Fridley, Minnesota 55432.
—
The following governmental entities are not included in these financial statements since they do
not meet the criteria contained in Statement 14:
Independent School District #11/Independent School District #13/Independent School
District#14/Independent School District#16-These four school districts either reside wholly
within the City of Fridley or overlap within the City boundaries. According to Minnesota State
Statutes, Minnesota school districts are totally independent of all other governing jurisdictions.
The City has no authority to appoint board members and has no fiscal responsibility. School
districts are able to levy taxes and issue debt in their own name.
Fridley Volunteer Firefighters Relief Association - This association is organized as a
—
nonprofit organization by its members to provide pension and other benefits to such members in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes. The board of directors is elected by the membership of
the Association. All funding is conducted in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, whereby state
aids flow to the association,tax levies are determined by the association and is only reviewed by
the City. The association pays benefits directly to its members. The association may certify tax
levies to the County directly if the City does not carry out this function. Because the association
is able to fund its program independently of the City, it is excluded from these financial
statements. (See Note 9 for disclosures relating to the pension plan operated by this
organization.)

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS --
DECEMBER 31, 1999
B. Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which
is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations 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. Government 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 activities are controlled. The various funds are grouped, in -•
the financial statements in this report, into seven generic fund types and three broad categories
as follows:
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
Governmental funds include the general fund, special revenue funds, debt service funds and
capital projects funds. The governmental fund measurement focus is based upon the
determination of financial position and changes in financial position (sources, uses and
balances of financial resources rather than upon net income determination). These funds are
maintained on the modified accrual basis of accounting (explained further under Significant
Accounting Policies). -=1
General Fund - The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City. It is used to
account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of
certain specific revenue sources that are restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of
resources for, and the payment of, general long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs.
Capital Projects Funds -Capital Projects Funds are used for the acquisition or construction of
major capital facilities other than those financed by proprietary funds.
PROPRIETARY FUNDS
Proprietary funds include enterprise funds and internal service funds. The proprietary fund
measurement focus is based upon the determination of net income, financial position and
changes in financial position. The generally accepted accounting principles here are those _,
applicable to similar businesses in the private sector and thus these funds are maintained on
the accrual basis of accounting.
Enterprise Funds - Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations that are financed and --
operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises -where the intent is that the costs
(expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public on a
continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges.
Internal Service Funds - Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing of goods
or services provided by one department to other departments of the City on a cost-
reimbursement basis.

•■ NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1999
FIDUCIARY FUNDS
Fiduciary funds include expendable trust and agency funds. The measurement focus of the
expendable trust funds is the same as governmental funds and is, therefore, maintained on the
modified accrual basis of accounting.
Trust Fund-The Trust Fund is used to account for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity
for individuals, private organizations, other governments, and/or all other funds. The City's
Trust Fund is classified as an Expendable Trust Fund and is accounted for in essentially the
same manner as governmental funds.
Agency Funds - Agency Funds are clearing type funds for the collection of taxes or deposits
held in trust, on behalf of individuals, private organizations and other governments. The funds
are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of
,^ operation.
C. Measurement Focus
The accounting and reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement
focus. All governmental funds and expendable trust funds are accounted for on a spending or
"current financial resources" measurement focus. This means that only current assets and
"' current liabilities are generally included on the balance sheets. (Their reported fund balance is
considered a measure of "available spendable resources.") Governmental fund operating
statements present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases
(expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Accordingly, they are said to
present a summary of sources and uses of"available spendable resources"during a period.
Fixed assets used in governmental fund type operations (general fixed assets) are recorded at
historical costs and accounted for in the General Fixed Assets Account Group. Public domain
("infrastructure") general fixed assets consisting of roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, are
capitalized along with other general fixed assets. No depreciation has been provided on general
fixed assets.
Long-term liabilities expected to be financed from governmental funds are accounted for in the
General Long-Term Debt Account Group, not in the governmental funds.
'ma These two account groups are not"funds." They are concerned only with the measurement of
financial position. They are not involved with measurement of results of operations.
Noncurrent portions of long-term receivables due to governmental funds are reported on their
—
balance sheets, in spite of their measurement focus. However, special reporting treatments are
used to indicate in all governmental funds that they should not be considered "available
spendable resources,"since they do not represent net current assets. Recognition of revenues
in these funds represented by noncurrent receivables is deferred until they become current
receivables.

DECEMBER 31, 1999
Because of their spending measurement focus, expenditure recognition for governmental fund
types excludes amounts represented by noncurrent liabilities. Since they do not affect net
current assets, such long-term amounts are not recognized as governmental fund type
expenditures or fund liabilities. They are instead reported as liabilities in the General Long-
Term Debt Account Group.
Proprietary funds are accounted for on a cost of services or "capital maintenance"
measurement focus. This means that all assets, including fixed assets, and all liabilities,
including long-term liabilities, associated with their activity are included on their balance sheets.
Their reported fund equity is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings
components. Proprietary fund type operating statements present increases (revenues) and
decreases (expenses)in net total assets.
D. Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in
the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing
of the measurements made, regardless of the measurement focus applied. _■
Governmental Funds and Expendable Trust Funds are accounted for using the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they become susceptible to accrual,
i.e., both measurable and available. Substantially all revenues are accrued.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the
related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt which
is recognized when due.
Agency Fund assets and liabilities are accounted for on the modified accrual basis of
accounting.
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are
recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred. The
City has implemented Statement No. 20 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board
(GASB), Accounting and Financial Reporting for Proprietary Funds and Other Governmental
Entities That Use Proprietary Fund Accounting. This statement provides guidance on business-
type accounting and financial reporting for proprietary activities. Proprietary activities should
apply to all applicable GASB pronouncements as well as the following pronouncements issued
on or before November 30, 1989, unless those pronouncements conflict with or contradict
GASB pronouncements: Statements of Interpretations of the Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB), Accounting Principles Board Opinion, and Accounting Research Bulletins of the
Committee on Accounting Procedures. In addition, a proprietary activity may elect to apply all
FASB Statements and Interpretations issued after November 30, 1989, except for those that
conflict with GASB pronouncements. The City has elected not to apply FASB Statements and
Interpretations issued after November 30, 1989.

E. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The City Charter grants the City Council full authority over the financial affairs of the City. The
City Manager is charged with the responsibility of preparing the estimates of the annual budget
and the enforcement of the provisions of the budget as specified in the City Charter. Upon
adoption of the annual budget resolution by the Council, it becomes the formal appropriation
budget for City operations. All budget adjustments must be approved by the Council.
a
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial
statements:
1. The City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal
year commencing the following January 1. The operating budget includes expenditures and
the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. The budget is legally enacted through passage of a resolution.
4. The City Council may authorize transfer of budgeted amounts between departments within
any fund.
5. Reported budget amounts are as originally adopted or as amended by Council approved
transfers. The City Charter limits appropriations to the total estimated revenues and fund
balances. If actual revenues exceed the original estimates, appropriations may be
increased by the Council up to the amount of revenue increases. There were no
supplemental appropriations required or made during the year.
6. All budget amounts lapse at the end of the year to the extent they have not been expended
or encumbered. Encumbrances are reappropriated into the following year's budget.
7. Annual budgets are legally adopted for the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds and
Capital Improvement Capital Projects Funds. Formal budgeting integration is employed as
a management control device during the year for each of these funds. Formal budgetary
integration is not employed for Debt Service Funds because effective budgetary control is
achieved through the bond indenture provisions. Budgetary control for other Capital
Projects Funds is accomplished through the use of project controls. (See Note 16 for
further information on budgeted and unbudgeted capital projects funds.)
8. Budgets for the General, Special Revenue and Capital Improvement Capital Projects Funds
are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.
9. As required by the City Charter, budgetary control is maintained within department at the
level of three major categories of expenditures: salaries and wages; ordinary expenses;
and capital outlay. This is the level of control at which expenditures may not legally exceed
appropriations.
10. The General Fund budget includes prior year encumbrances which were reappropriated to
the current year. Expenditures for the items encumbered are included in the current year's
expenditures.

F. Assets, Liabilities and Fund Equity
1) Cash and Cash Equivalents,and Investments
—
Cash balances from all funds are combined and invested to the extent available in
certificates of deposit, U.S. government securities and other securities authorized by State
Statute. Investment income is allocated to the respective funds on the basis of applicable
cash balance participation by each fund. With exception of the Deferred Compensation
Agency Fund which states investments in a deferred compensation plan at market, all
investments are stated at cost which approximates market. Investments with original
maturities of three months or less are classified as cash equivalents.
The City provides temporary advances to funds that have insufficient cash balances by
means of an advance from the internal service and enterprise funds. This is classified as
an interfund payable in the fund receiving the advance and as an offsetting interfund
receivable in the internal service and enterprise funds.
In accordance with authorized investment laws,the City invests in various mortgage-backed
securities, such as collateralized mortgage obligations. These securities are reported at ..,
cost in the balance sheet. They are reported in aggregate as U.S. Government Agencies in
the disclosure of custodial credit risk. (See Note 2 on Investments).
2) Receivables
Property Taxes
The property tax levy was set by the City Council in November and was certified to the
County for collection the following year. In Minnesota, counties act as collection agents for
all property taxes.
The County spreads the levies over all taxable property in the City. Such taxes become
receivables of the City as of January 1.
Property taxes are payable in equal installments by property owners to the County as
follows:
Personal property- February 28 and June 30
Real property- May 15 and October 15
The County remits the collections to the City and other taxing districts four times a year, in
January,April, July and December. During 1999 taxes were adjusted downward $30,977 by
Anoka County due to abatements and court ordered settlements.
Unpaid taxes at December 31 become liens on the respective property and are classified in
the financial statements as delinquent taxes receivable. The receivable is fully offset by --
deferred revenue as it is not available to finance current expenditures.
Taxes payable on homestead property (as defined by State Statutes) are partially reduced
by Homestead and Agriculture Credit Aid. This aid is paid to the City by the State in lieu of
taxes levied against homestead property. The State remits this aid in two equal
installments in July and December each year.

Special Assessments Receivable
Special assessments are levied against the benefited properties for the assessable costs of
special assessment improvement projects in accordance with State Statutes. The City
usually adopts the assessment rolls when the individual projects are complete or
substantially complete. The assessments are collectible over a term of years generally
consistent with the term of years of the related bond issue.
a
Collection of annual installments (including interest) is handled by the County in the same
manner as property taxes. Property owners are allowed to prepay total future installments
without interest or prepayment penalties.
Special assessments receivable includes the following components:
Unremitted-amounts collected by Anoka County and not remitted to the City prior to
year end.
Delinquent-amounts billed to property owners but not paid.
Deferred - assessment installments which will be billed to property owners in future
years.
"' 3) Inventories
Inventory in the General Fund consists of expendable supplies held for consumption and is
recorded at cost on a first in first out basis. The cost is recorded as an expenditure at the
time individual inventory items are used. Reported inventories are equally offset by a fund
balance reserve which indicates that they do not constitute"available spendable resources"
even though they are a component of net current assets.
Proprietary Funds inventory items are expensed at the time they are sold or used.
(Consumption method). Liquor inventories are recorded on the average cost basis.
"' 4) Property and Equipment/General Fixed Assets
All fixed assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost, if the original cost
was not available. Donated fixed assets are carried at the fair market value on the date
donated.
Additions to general fixed assets for general City purposes, including public domain
(infrastructure)fixed assets are recorded as expenditures of the applicable fund in the year
in which the fixed asset was purchased or constructed, and are capitalized in the General
Fixed Asset Account Group. Depreciation is not recorded on these assets.

Property and equipment of the proprietary funds are capitalized in these funds.
Depreciation of exhaustible property and equipment of the proprietary funds is charged as
an expense against their operations and accumulated depreciation is reported on
proprietary fund balance sheets. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful
lives using the straight line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Improvements Other Than Building 20-50 years
Buildings 20-50 years
Machinery and Equipment 5- 10 years

5) Compensated Absences
All liabilities for compensated absences, both current and long-term, for annual leave,
severance and separation pay are accounted for in the Employee Benefit Fund, an internal
service fund. Each year compensated absence expenditures and expenses are recorded in
the governmental and proprietary funds respectively, equivalent to the full amount accrued
by fund employees during the year. These charges are offset by a corresponding transfer
of assets from the home department funds to the Employee Benefit Fund to fund the
liability. This liability represents the maximum possible dilution of Employee Benefit Fund
assets by retirements or extended leaves by employees. The personnel ordinance limits
the annual accumulation of benefits that can be accumulated from year to year.
6) Encumbrances
Encumbrances represent purchase commitments. Encumbrances outstanding at year end
are reported as reservations of fund balance since they do not constitute expenditures or
liabilities.
G. Revenues, Expenditures and Expenses
The following transactions are accounted for as described below:
General Property Taxes/Special Assessments - Revenue is recognized in the year of
collection, with amounts due from the County and received early in the following year set up as
receivable (unremitted receivables). Uncollected (delinquent) taxes and special assessments
receivable are fully offset by deferred revenue until they become available to finance current
expenditures. General property taxes and special assessments are recognized when cash is
received to prevent overstating due to delinquencies.
Principal Portion of Special Assessments - Revenue is recognized in the year the
assessments are collected.
Interest Revenue on Special Assessments Receivable - Interest revenue is recognized in the
year of collection of the current principal installment.

"" Intergovernmental Revenues - Intergovernmental revenues in the form of state aids are
recorded as revenue when allocations are made by statutory formula. Other intergovernmental
revenues received as reimbursements for specific purposes or projects are recognized based
upon the expenditures incurred. Intergovernmental revenues received through abatements or
shares are recorded in the year determined to be measurable and available.
Investment Income-Interest is recorded as revenue in the year earned.
Water and Sewer Service Charges- Revenue is recognized when earned with no allowance for
uncollectibles as delinquent accounts are certified as a special assessment lien against the
property billed. Unbilled service charges are included in receivables at year end.
Other Revenues - Licenses, fines, penalties and miscellaneous revenues are recorded as
revenues when received in cash because they are generally not measurable until actually
received.
Interest Expense on Bonded Indebtedness - Interest expense is recorded as an expenditure
when paid in the governmental fund types and accrued when incurred in the proprietary fund
— types.
Bond and Interest Payments Due January 1 - Expenditures are recognized when amounts are
remitted to the paying agent(usually in December)for payment of bonds and interest.
H. Comparative Data
Comparative total data for the prior year have been presented in the accompanying combined
financial statements in order to provide an understanding of changes in the City's financial
position and operations. However, comparative(i.e., presentation of prior year totals by fund type)
— data have not been presented in all statements since their inclusion would make the statements
unduly complex and difficult to read.
Total columns on the combined statements are captioned "Memorandum Only" to indicate that
they are presented only to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present
financial position, results of operations, or cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data.
I. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates that affect amounts reported in the
financial statements during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.

2. Deposits and Investments
A. Deposits
In accordance with applicable Minnesota Statutes,the City maintains deposits at depository banks
authorized by the City Council. All such depositories are members of the Federal Reserve
System.
Minnesota Statutes require that all deposits be protected by insurance, surety bond or collateral.
If collateral is pledged as protection for the deposits, State Statutes require that it be held by a
third party in the City's name. The market value of the collateral must at a minimum be 110% of
the deposits not covered by insurance or bonds (140% in the case of mortgage backed collateral).
Repurchase agreements are intentionally overcollateralized at 105% to insure that the safety of
investment principal is attained and losses do not occur from rapid overnight deterioration. Due to
wire transfers and tax settlements credited by the bank at the end of the day, there were several
occasions during the year where overnight deposits were undercollateralized. On each occasion, �"
the uncollateralized balance was invested with another financial institution on the following day.
Balances at December 31, 1999 are as follows:
Bank Carrying
Balances Amount
City $190,032 $847,613

C. Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA)-Defined Contribution
Plan Description
Three council members of the City of Fridley are covered by defined contribution pension
plan administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA).
PERA administers the Public Employees Defined Contribution Plan (PEDCP)which is a
multiple-employer deferred compensation plan.
Benefit Provisions and Contribution Rates
The PEDCP is a tax qualified plan under Section 401(a)of the Internal Revenue Code and
all contributions by or on behalf of employees are tax deferred until time of withdrawal.
Plan benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment income,
less administrative expenses. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353D.03, specifies the
employee and employer contribution rates for those qualified personnel who elect to
participate. An eligible elected official who decides to participate contributes 5 percent of
salary which is matched by the elected official's employer. For ambulance service
personnel, employer contributions are determined by the employer, and for salaried
employees must be a fixed percentage of salary. Employer contributions for volunteer
personnel may be a unit value for each call or period of alert duty. Employees who are paid
for their services may elect to make member contributions in an amount not to exceed the
employer share. Employer and employee contributions are combined and used to purchase
shares in one or more of the six accounts of the Minnesota Supplemental Investment Fund.
For administering the plan, PERA receives 2 percent of employer contributions and one-
tenth of one percent of the assets in each member's account.

17. Risk Management
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets;
errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. During 1987, the City established the
Self Insurance Fund (an Internal Service Fund)to account for and finance its uninsured risks of loss.
The Self Insurance Fund provides coverage for up to a maximum of$50,000 for each liability and property
claim with an annual aggregate of $100,000 for all claims. The City purchases insurance through the
League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust for claims in excess of coverage provided by the fund and for
all other risks of loss.
The City's workers compensation insurance policy is retrospectively rated. With this type of policy, final
premiums are determined after loss experience is known. The amount of premium adjustment, if any, is
not reasonably estimable and is not recorded until received or paid.
Effective September 1, 1999 the City began to self insure for health insurance. The Self Insurance Fund
pays claims up to a maximum of$15,000. The City purchases insurance for claims in excess of coverage
provided by the fund. --
In 1990, the General Fund contributed $1,000,000 to the Self Insurance Fund in lieu of the Self Insurance
Fund charging losses back to each fund.
There is no recorded liability for unpaid claims because the amount of such claims, if any, are considered
to be immaterial.
As of December 31, 1999, the Self Insurance Fund has accumulated equity in the amount of$1,939,629
to cover future claims and losses.

ENTERPRISE FUNDS
Enterprise Funds are used to account for the operations of self-supporting governmental activities
that render services or goods to the public. The accounting records are maintained on an accrual
basis.
The reporting for enterprise funds is similar to comparable private enterprises. Creditors,
legislators or the general public can evaluate the performance of a municipal enterprise on the
same basis as they can the performance of investor-owned enterprises.
Liquor Fund
This fund accounts for the operation of the City's off-sale liquor establishments.
Public Utilities Fund
This fund accounts for the operations of the City-owned sewer and water systems.

SIGNIFICANT MINNESOTA TAX POLICIES

GENERAL
All non-exempt property in Minnesota is subject to taxation by local taxing districts. The tax levied on a property is
determined by computing its tax capacity, which is the property's market value multiplied by the appropriate class rate.
The taxes on a property are computed by multiplying the tax rate by the property's tax capacity. The tax rate is determined
by the County Auditor, dividing each tax levy by the taxing jurisdiction's adjusted net tax capacity.
Properties are physically reviewed by assessors at least once every four years.
The assessors market value is multiplied by the appropriate class rates to arrive at the adjusted net tax capacity (taxable
value). The class rates vary by class of property.
Type of Property 1999
Class Rates
,_ Residential Homestead
First$75,000 1.00%
Over$75,000 1.85%
Commercial/Industrial
First$150,000 2.70%
Over$150,000 4.00%
Rentals
Apartments: 4+ units 2.90%
Less than 4 units 2.10%
Title II, MFHA, Sect. 8 2.00%
Property Tax Refund. Residential property tax credits are indexed by the percentage of net property tax to household
income to the extent a homeowners property tax exceeds a percentage of household income. The percentage ranges
from 1.2%for incomes below$1,000 up to 4%for incomes of$68,510. The maximum refund amount is$490.
In 1989, the Minnesota Legislature also enacted a targeting property tax credit program. This program provides refunds
to homestead property owners for part of their tax increase in excess of 12 percent, if the increase is at least$100. The
refund is equal to 75 percent of the increase over 12 percent. The maximum refund is$1,000.
Property Tax Deferred. In 1993, the Minnesota legislature enacted a law commonly known as "This Old House" which
exempts from the property tax all or a portion of the value of improvements made to homes 35 years of age or older.
,.. Homestead property owners could exclude the property tax on those improvements for 10 years. At the end of 10 years,
the value of the improvements is added to the market value of the home in equal installments every five years. There are
limits to the dollar amount eligible for the tax exclusion: $25,000 on homes 35 to 69 years old; and $50,000 on homes 70
years or older. Only improvements adding $1,000 or more of market value are eligible. This is effective for improvements
AIM made through January 2, 2003.
