INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the City Council
City of Montague, California
Unmodified and Disclaimer of Opinions
I have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type table of contents.
Summary of Opinions
Opinion Unit Type of Opinion
Governmental Activities Unmodified
Business-type Activities
Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association
General Fund
COPS Fund
Fire Fund
STIP Fund
Water Fund
Sewer Fund
Airport Fund
Aggregate Remaining Fund Information
Disclaimer of Opinion on the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association I do not express an opinion on the financial statements of the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association of the City of Montague, California. Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion on the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association section of my report, I have not been able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the financial statements of the MVFDA.
Unmodified Opinions on Governmental Activities, Business-type Activities, Each Major Fund, and Aggregate Remaining Fund Information
In my opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities. espective gregate positing fu greate ate ties, the base alre is ne 2023, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion on the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association During the audit of the basic financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2023, it was discovered by the City that there was an unreported bank account in the name of the Montague Fireman's Association that had activity dating back many years. The bank account under the name, Montague Fireman's Association, represents the banking activity of the MVFDA. The MVFDA was approved by City Council to be an aggregate discretely presented component unit, but the MVFDA never became a separate legal entity. Therefore, the MVFDA is being reported as a separate fund of the City and qualifies as a non-major fund. The MVFDA does not have an accounting system that could account for the cash receipts and disbursements, and there is not enough appropriate audit evidence to generate financial statement amounts. As of the date of my audit report, management was still in the process of rectifying the system deficiencies, performing various account analysis, and correcting the misstatements.
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
(Continued)
I was unable to confirm or verify by alternative means the financial statement amounts for MVFDA. As a result of these matters, I was unable to determine whether any adjustments might have been found necessary for the amounts included in the statement of financial position and changes in financial position or MVFDA. MVFDA'S financial activities are included in the City of Montague, California's basic financia tatements as a non-maior fund and represent 41 percent. .42 percent, and 14 percent of the assets, fun:
balance, and revenues, respectively, of the City of Montague, California's aggregate remaining fund information for all non-major governmental funds.
Basis for Unmodified Opinions
I conducted my audit of the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. My responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of my report. I am required to be independent of the City of Montague, California and to meet my other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to my audit. I believe that the audit evidence I have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for my audit opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the * one mantenance e design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Montague, California's ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association My responsibility is to conduct an audit of the City of Montague, California's financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and to issue an auditor's report. However, because of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion on the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association section of my report, I was not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion on the financial statements of the MVFDA.
I am required to be independent of the City of Montague, California and to meet my other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to my audit.
Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Governmental Activities, the Business-type Activities, Each Major Fund, and the Aggregate Remaining Fund Information My objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes my opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
2 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
(Continued)
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, 1:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Montague, California's internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
• Conclude whether, in my judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Montague, California's ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
I am required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that I identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis (not presented), the budgetary comparison information on pages 38-41, the pension disclosure schedules on pages 42-43, and the single-employer defined benefit post-employment healthcare plan information on page 44-45 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements.
Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. I have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to my inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge I obtained during my audit of the basic financial statements. I do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Supplementary Information
My audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Montague, California's basic financial statements. The accompanying combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are the basic financial statements. Except as noted in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the Montague Volunteer Fire Department Association non-major fund, the remaining fund information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
3 INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
(Continued)
Except for the disclaimer of opinion on the MVFDA non-major fund, in my opinion, the combining and individual remaining nonmajor fund financial statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management has omitted Management's Discussion and Analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. My opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, I have also issued my report dated January 14, 2026, on my consideration of the City of Montague, California's internal control over financial reporting and on my tests of its compliance with certain provision of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of my testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Montague, California's internal control over financial reporting or on compliance.
That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering City of Montague, California's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Montague, California (hereafter "the City") operates under a City Clerk - City Council form of government and provides the following services: public safety, streets and roads, water and sewer, culture and recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services.
The accounting policies of the City conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governmental entities. The following is a summary of the more significant The City's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is responsible for establishing GAAP for state and local governments through its pronouncements (Statements and Interpretations). The more significant accounting policies established in GAAP and used by the City are discussed below.
The financial statements of the City include all of the financial activities of the City. In evaluating how to define the City for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential legal component units. The decision to include a potential component unit in the reporting entity was made by applying the criteria set forth in GAAP. The basic - but not the only - criterion for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity is the governing body's ability to exercise oversight responsibility. The most significant manifestation of this ability is financial interdependency. Other manifestations of the ability to exercise oversight responsibility include, but are not limited to, the selection of governing authority, the designation of management, the ability to significantly influence operations and accountability for fiscal matters. The other criterion used to evaluate potential component units for inclusion or exclusion from the reporting entity is the existence of special financing relationships, regardless of whether the City is able to exercise oversight responsibilities. Based upon the application of these criteria, the City does not have any component units.
B. Basis of Presentation
Government-wide Financial Statements:
of the City. Governmental activities are reported separately from business-type activities (such as water, sewer, and airport).
The statement of activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each different identifiable activity of the City's business-type activities and for each function of the City's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and therefore are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include charges paid by recipients of goods and services offered by the program, and grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues are presented instead as general revenues.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources (net position) are available, restricted resources are depleted first before the unrestricted resources are used.
Fund Financial Statements:
Fund financial statements of the City are organized into funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria:
13 City Montague, California
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditure/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all funds of that category type; and Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses for the individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 5 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined.
The funds of the City are described below:
Major Governmental Funds:
General Fund: general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
COPS Fund: accounts for police protection activities financed through COPS grants.
Fire Fund: established to account for fire suppression activities, as financed by fire suppression fees levied on property owners, as well as from monies provided by the Montague Fire Protection District.
STIP Fund: accounts for road work financed by the state.
Major Proprietary Funds:
The Enterprise Funds (Water, Sewer, and Airport) are used to account for operations that are financed and operated in a manner similar to a private business enterprise where the intent of the governing body is that the costs (expenses) of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges, or where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability, or other purposes.
Water Fund: established to account for the operations of the City's water utility, a self-supporting activity which renders a service on a user charge basis to residents and businesses within the City.
Sewer Fund: established to account for the operations of the City's sewer utility, a self-supporting activity which renders a service on a user charge basis to residents and businesses within the City.
Airport Fund: was established to account for the operations of the Montague - Yreka Airport.
Additionally, the City reports the following funds:
Gas Tax Fund: established to account for the construction and maintenance of the streets and roads of the City as financed by gas taxes received from the State.
Parks and Recreation Fund: accounts for park and recreation activities of the City as financed by user charges and grants received from the State.
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Fund: accounts for the financing of home rehabilitation, as financed by monies passed through the State by the federal government.
Economic Development Block Grant (EDBG) Fund: accounts for the financing of businesses, as financed by monies passed through the State by the federal government.
Revolving Loan Fund: established to account for the funds used to make loans to homeowners and businesses.
Local Transportation Fund: established to account for the construction and maintenance of the streets and roads of the City, as well as to provide mass transit, as financed from "Transportation Development Act" monies passed through the County of Siskiyou by the State.

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" transactions are recorded regardless of the measurement focus applied.
Measurement Focus:
In the government-wide statements, both governmental and business-type activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined below.
In fund financial statements, the current financial resources measurement focus or the economic resources, measurement focus is used as appropriate.
All governmental funds utilize a current financial resources measurement focus. Only current financial assets and liabilities are generally included on their balance sheets. Their operating statements present resources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the year.
All proprietary (enterprise) funds utilize an economic resources measurement focus. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net assets (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are reported. Proprietary fund equity is classified as a net position.
Fiduciary (agency) funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore, measurement focus in not applicable to them. The District does not have any fiduciary funds.
Basis of Accounting:
In the government-wide statements, both governmental and business-type activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred, or economic asset used.
Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
In the fund financial statements, governmental and agency funds are presented on the modified accrual of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when measurable and available. Measurable means knowing or being able to reasonably estimate the amount.
Available means collectible within the current period or within sixty (60) days after year end for all revenues except those involving non-exchange type revenues which use one year. Expenditures (including capital outlays) are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred.
All proprietary funds utilize the accrual basis of accounting, as described above.
D. Assets, Liabilities, Net Assets or Fund Equity
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers as cash equivalents all highly liquid investments with a maturity at the date of purchase of three months or less.
Investments:
The City participates in the California Local Agency Investment Fund ("LAIF"). LAIF is an external investment pool through which local governments may pool investments. Investments in LAIF are highl liquid, as deposits can be converted to cash within 24 hours without the loss of interest. The fair value o the City's portion of LAIF is the same as its value of the pool shares. The regulatory oversight of LAIF rests with the Local Agency Investment Board.

Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Receivables:
In the fund financial statements, material receivables in governmental funds are the same as those in the government-wide statements since they are both measurable and available. Interest earnings are recorded when earned only if paid within sixty (60) days since they would be considered both measurable and available. Proprietary fund receivables consist of all revenues earned at year-end but not yet received.
Allowances for uncollectible accounts receivable are based on historical trends, periodic aging of accounts receivable, and management's detailed analysis of the composition of accounts receivable.
Property Taxes:
The County of Siskiyou assesses, bills, and collects property taxes for the City. Assessed values are determined annually by the Siskiyou County Assessor as of January 1 and become a lien on such property January 1. Taxes are due November 1 and February 1 (secured), and July 1 (unsecured) and are delinquent if not paid by December 10 and April 10 (secured), and August 31 (unsecured). The County is permitted by the State Constitution (Article XIII A) to levy taxes at 1% of the full market value of the property (at the time of purchase) and can increase a property's assessed valuation by reappraisal due to new construction, change in ownership, or by increase in fair market value not to exceed a 2% each year. Property taxes collected by the County on behalf of the City but not remitted to the City by June 30 are accrued in revenue and included in other accounts receivable.
Interfund Receivables and Payables:
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in amounts owed between funds. These may include amounts relating to goods and services type transactions, and inter-fund loans.
Restricted Assets:
Resources set aside for the debt service of the City's construction loan financing for the water system improvements as restricted assets on the balance sheet/net position because they are maintained in separate bank accounts and their use is restricted.
Capital Assets:
The accounting treatment over property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (capital assets) depends on whether the assets are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fund financial statements.
In the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets with a cost, as defined below, of $5,000 or more are accounted for as capital assets.
All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available, except donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated fair market value at the date of donation. Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the Statement of Activities, with accumulated depreciation reflected in the Statement of Net Position.
Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The range of estimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows:
Utility plants 7 to 50 years
Buildings and improvements 5 to 35 years
Equipment, furnishings, and vehicles 3 to 35 years
Infrastructure 10 to 20 years
In the fund financial statements, capital assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. Capital assets used in proprietary fund operations are accounted for the same as in the government-wide statements.

Vacation pay and compensated time off is vested to the employees as it accrues and is payable upon separation of service. Sick leave does not vest to the employees and is paid only when sick leave is taken.
Therefore, only vacation pay, and compensated time off, have been accrued in the accompanying financial statements.
Advances of grants:
Advances of grants represents monies received from various grantors that has not yet been expended by the City and is not earned (as revenue) until it is properly expended.
Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources:
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 63, "Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position", and revised by Statement No. 65, "Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities", the City has classified certain assets as Deferred Outflows of Resources and certain liabilities as Deferred Inflows of Resources as of June 30, 2023.
Deferred Outflows of Resources are defined as a consumption of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period. Similar to prepaid expenses and deposits.
Deferred Inflows of Resources are defined as an acquisition of net assets by the government that is applicable to a future reporting period. For example, deferred revenue unavailable, advances from grants and pension related.
Government-wide and Proprietary Fund Net Position:
Government-wide and proprietary fund net position are divided into three components:
• Net investment in capital assets: Consists of the historical cost of capital assets less accumulated depreciation and less any debt that remains outstanding that we used to finance those assets plus deferred outflows of resources less deferred inflows of resources related to cash.
Restricted net position: Consists of assets that are restricted by the City's creditors (for example, through debt covenants), by the state enabling legislation (through restrictions on shared venues), ov arantors (both federal and state), and by other contributors. • Unrestricted: All other net position is reported in this category.
Fund Balance Classification:
The governmental fund financial statements present fund balances based on classifications that comprise a hierarchy that is based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts in the respective governmental funds can be spent. The classifications used in the governmental fund financial statements are as follows:
• Nonspendable: This classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form (i.e. noncurrent receivables and prepaid items) or (b) are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted: This classification includes amounts for which constraints have been placed on the use of the resources either (a) externally imposed by creditors (such as through a debt covenant), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or (b) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. The City has externally imposed restrictions for streets and roads, fire protection and community development fund balances. 17 City Montague, California
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Committed: This classification includes amounts that can be used only for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of the City Council. These amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the City Council removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (ordinance or resolution) that was employed when the funds were initially committed. This classification also includes contractual obligations to the extent that existing resources have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual requirements.
The City did not have any committed resources as of June 30, 2023. • Assigned: This classification includes amounts that are constrained by the City's intent to be used for a specific purpose but are neither restricted nor committed. This intent can be expressed by the City Council or through the City Council delegating this responsibility to the City clerk through the budgetary process. This classification also includes the remaining positive fund balance for the Fire Fund and MVFDA Fund combined, assigned for future capital purchases. The City had assigned resources as of June 30, 2023 of $136,247.
• Unassigned: This classification includes the residual fund balance for the General Fund. The Unassigned classification also includes negative residual fund balance of any other governmental fund that cannot be eliminated by offsetting of Assigned fund balance amounts.
The City would typically use restricted fund balances first, followed by committed resources, and then assigned resources, as appropriate opportunities arise, but reserves the right to selectively spend unassigned resources first to defer the use of these other classified funds.
E. Revenues, Expenditures and Expenses
Operating Revenues and Expenses:
Operating revenues and expenses for proprietary funds are those that result from providing services and producing and delivering goods and/or services. It also includes all revenues and expenses not related to capital and related financing, noncapital financing, or investing activities.
Expenditures/Expenses:
In the government-wide financial statements, expenses are classified by function for both governmental and business-type activities.
In the fund financial statements, expenditures are classified by character (current, debt service or capital outlay) for governmental funds, and by operating or nonoperating classifications for proprietary funds.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report expenditures of financial resources. Proprietary funds report expenses relating to the use of economic resources.
F. Estimates
The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
G. Budgets
The City adopts an annual budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. The level of control (the level at which expenditures may not exceed budget) is the fund. Unused appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year.
The City does not use encumbrance accounting.

NOTE 2 IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS
Effective in Future Fiscal Years
Effective for fiscal years beginning July 1, 2024, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued Statement | No. 101, Compensated Absences. This Statement requires that liabilities for compensated absences be recognized for (1) leave that has not been used and (2) leave that has been used but not yet paid in cash or settled through noncash means. A liability should be recognized for leave that has not been used if (a) the leave is attributable to services already rendered, (b) the leave accumulates, and (c) the leave is more likely than not to be used for time off or otherwise paid in cash or settled through noncash means.
This Statement will result in a liability for compensated absences that more appropriately reflects when a government incurs an obligation. In addition, the model can be applied consistently to any type of compensated absence and will eliminate potential comparability issues between governments that offer different types of leave. The model also will result in a more robust estimate of the amount of compensated absences that a government will pay or settle, which will enhance the relevance and reliability of information about the liability for compensated absences.
Effective for fiscal years beginning July 1, 2024, the GASB issued Statement No. 102, Certain Risk Disclosures. This Statement requires a government to assess whether a concentration or constraint makes the primary government reporting unit or other reporting units that report a liability for revenue debi vulnerable to the risk of a substantial impact. Additionally, this Statement requires a government to assess whether an event or events associated with a concentration or constraint that could cause the substantial impact have occurred, have begun to occur, or are more likely to begin to occur within 12 months of the date the financial statements are issued.
NOTE 3 CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The City follows the practice of pooling cash of all funds, unless the funds are required by law, debt covenant or other instrument to be held in a separate account. Interest income on pooled cash invested is allocated monthly to the various funds based on the same proportion that such funds bear to the total monies invested.
Cash and investments as of June 30, 2023 are classified in the accompanying financial statements as follows:
Statement of Net Position
Current cash and investments $ 4,709,954
Restricted cash and investments 572,400
Total Cash and Investments • 5,282,35

Disclosure Relating to Interest Rate Risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.
Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value in market interest rates. As of year-end, the weighted average life, as well as the estimated fair value of each investment are shown in the table below.
Cost Fair Value Average Life
Local Agency Investment Fund $ 785,794 $773,872 390-day average Disclosure Relating to Credit Risk:
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer if an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. LAIF and Certificated of Deposits with banks do not have such a rating.
Concentration of Credit Risk:
The investment policy of the City contains no limitation on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond that stipulated by the California Government Code. There are no investments in any one issuer or reporting unit that represent 5 percent or more of total City investments.
Custodial Credit Risk:
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure a City's deposits by pledging government securities with a value of associations to secure a City's deposits by pledging government securities with a value of 110% of a City's deposits. California law also allows financial institutions to secure a City's deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of a City's total deposits. The City Treasurer may waive the collateral requirement for deposits that are fully insured up to $250,000 by the FDIC. The collateral for deposits in federal and state chartered banks is held in safekeeping by an authorized Agent of Depository recognized by the State of California Department of Banking. The collateral for deposits with savings and loan associations is generally held in safekeeping by the Federal Home Loan Bank in San Francisco, California as an Agent of Depository. These securities are physically held in an undivided pool for all California public agency depositors. Under Government Code Section 53655, the placement of securities by a bank or savings and loan association with an "Agent of Depository" has the effect of perfecting the security interest in the name of the local governmental agency. Accordingly, all collateral held by California Agents of Depository are considered to be held for, and in the name of, the local governmental agency.
The City's balance in banks (i.e. financial institutions) was $4,471,827, all of which was covered by federal depository insurance, or the collateral requirements discussed in the preceding paragraph. The bank balance differs from the book balance of $4,509,601 because of outstanding checks and deposits.
Investment in State Investment Pool (LAIF):
The City invests funds in the State Treasurer's Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA) through LAIF, a voluntary program created by statue in 1977. The PMIA has regulatory oversight from the Pooled Money Investment Board and an in-house Investment Committee. The Local Agency Investment Advisory Board has oversight of LAIF. LAIF is an unrated external investment pool.
Carrying value of investments must be at fair value if the difference between carrying value and fair value becomes material. The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the City's pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). 20 City Montague, California

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN (Continued)
Contribution Description
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law (PERL) requires that an actuary letermine the employer contribution rates for all public employers on an annual basis, and that the rates shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. The CalPERS' annual actuarial valuation process determines the total plan contributions. For public-agency cost-sharing plans covered by either the Plan, the basis of the Plan's actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to pay the Plan's allocated share of the risk pool's costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, and unfunded accrued liability. PERL requires the employer to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of the employees.
For the measurement period ended June 30, 2022 (the measurement date), the basis for the contribution rates are actual contributions made, and not the actuarially determined contribution. The employees and employer had the following contribution rates, shown as a percentage of the annual payroll:
Contribution Type Classic PEPRA
Employee (Charged) 7. 000% 6.750%
Employee (Effective) 6.920% 6.750%
Employer 8.650% 7.590%
The charged employee contribution rate is the percentage that the Plan charges the employees after the irst $400 in earnings for Classic plans. The Classic Plan charges the first $400 in earnings at two-thirds o the charged rate. The effective employee contribution rate takes this into consideration.
Employer contribution rates may change if the Plan amends its contracts. It is the responsibility of the employer to make necessary accounting adjustments to reflect the impact due to any employer-paid member contributions, or situations where members pay a portion of the employer contribution.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions Used to Determine Plan Contributions CaPERS derived the actuarial methods and assumptions used to set the actuarially determined contributions for Fiscal Year 2021-22 from the June 30, 2021, funding valuation report.
Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal
Actuarial Assumptions:
Investment rate of return 6.90%
Inflation 2.30%
Salary increases Varies by entry age and service
Mortality rate table ' Derived using CaPERS' membership data for all funds Post-retirement benefit increase Contract COLA up to 2.30% until Purchasing Power Protection Allowance Floor on Purchasing Power applies
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022, valuation use the results of the 2021 CaPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions, including updates to salary increases, mortality, and retirement rates, as a basis. Employers should refer to CalPERS' Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, to obtain the required supplementary information for proper financial reporting.

Amortization of Deferred Outflows and Deferred Inflows of Resources Description of the Amortization Methodology
Under GASB 68, agencies recognize actuarial gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position in the pension expense systematically over time.
Agencies recognize the first amortized amount of a gain or loss in the pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. Agencies categorize the remaining amounts as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions that are to be recognized in future pension expense.
The amortization period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss:
Difference between Five-year straight-line amortization projected and actual
earnings
All other amounts Straight-line amortization over the expected average remaining service lifetime (EARSL) of all members
provided with pensions (active, inactive and retired), as of the beginning of the measurement period.

Difference between Projected and Actual Investment Earning on Pension Plan Investments at the measurement date over the remaining four-year period. The Net Difference between Projected and Actual Investment Earnings on Pension Plan Investments in the Schedule of Collective Pension Amounts represents the unamortized balance relating to the current measurement period and the prior measurement period on a net basis.
The employer should amortize deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources relating to Differences between Expected and Actual Experience, Changes of Assumptions, and employer-specific amounts over the EARSL of members provided with pensions through the Plan. The EARS for PERF C for the June 30, 2022, measurement date is 3.7 years.
CaPERS derived the EARSL by dividing the total service years of 574,665 (the sum of remaining service lifetimes of all active employees) by 153,587 (the total number of participants: active, inactive, and retired) in PERF C. Inactive employees and retirees have remaining service lifetimes equal to zero. The basis of total future service is the members' probability of decrementing due to an event other than receiving a cash The Schedule of Collective Pension Amounts does not reflect employer-specific amounts such as changes contributions and
emplovers proportionate shares of contributions, and employer contributions to PERF C subsequent to the measurement date, as defined in GASB 68 paragraphs 54, 55, and 57. Appropriate treatment of such amounts is the responsibility of the employers.
CaPERS' website provides CaPERS' Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, and the CaPERS' GASB 68 Accounting Valuation Reports for the public agency Miscellaneous and Safety Risk Pools, which together provide additional financial and actuarial information required for GASB 68 disclosures.

Allocation of Net Pension Liability and Pension Expense to Individual Plans A key aspect of GASB 68 pertaining to cost-sharing employers is the establishment of an approach to allocate the net pension liability and pension expense to the individual employers within the risk pool. aragraph 49 of GASB 68 indicates that for pools with contribution rates within the pool based on separat elationships, the proportional allocation should reflect those relationships. The allocation method utilize by CaPERS determines the employer's share by reflecting these relationships through the plans they sponsor within the risk pool. The valuation uses plan liability and asset-related information where available, and proportional allocations of individual plan amounts as of the valuation date where not available.
1. In determining a cost-sharing plan's proportionate share, CaPERS' staff calculated the total amounts of liabilities and assets for the risk pool on the valuation date (June 30, 2021). The risk pool's fiduciary net position (FNP) subtracted from its total pension liability (TPL) determines the net pension liability (NPL) at the valuation date.
2. Using standard actuarial roll-forward methods, the staff then calculated the risk-pool TPL at the measurement date (June 30, 2022). The staff then subtracted the risk-pool FNP at the measurement date from this number to determine the NPL for the risk pool at the measurement date.
3. We calculated the individual plan's TPL, FNP, and NPL at the valuation date. We calculated this and the subsequent steps each risk pool separately.
4. We calculated two ratios by dividing the plan's individual TPL and FNP as of the valuation date from (3) by the amounts in step (1), the risk pool's total TPL and FNP, respectively.
5. The plan's TPL as of the Measurement Date is equal to the risk-pool TPL generated in (2), multiplied by the TPL ratio generated in (4).
6. The plan's FNP as of the Measurement Date is equal to the FNP generated in (2) multiplied by the FNP ratio generated in (4), plus any additional side fund (or unfunded liability) contributions made by the employer on behalf of the plan during the measurement period.
7. The plan's NPL at the Measurement Date is the difference between the TPL and FNP calculated in (5).
Please refer to the CaPERS "Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan Schedules of Employer Allocations and Collective Pension Amounts" report for the Miscellaneous and Safety Risk Pools, available from CalPERS' website under the GASB 68 section.
Each plan's proportion of aggregate employer contributions is equal to the plan's proportion of FNP calculated in (4). Each plan's proportionate share of risk-pool pension expense is the sum of the related proportionate shares of the components of the aggregate pension expense.
Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions As of June 30, 2023, the City reported net pension liabilities for its proportionate shares of the net pension liability of the Plan as follows:
Proportionate Share
of Net Pension Liability
Miscellaneous $ 489,501
The City's net pension liability for the Plan is measured as a proportionate share of the net pension liability.
The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2022, and the total pension liability for the Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2021, rolled forward to June 30, 2022, using standard update procedures. The City's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the City's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected contributions of all participating employers, actuarially determined. 28 City Montague, California

Proportion - June 30, 2022 0.01046%
Change - Increase/(Decrease) -0.00094%
The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. For the year ended June 30, 2023, the contributions recognized as part of pension expense for the Plan were $53,054.
For the year ended June 30, 2023, the City recognized pension expense under GASB 68 of $18,667.
At the June 30, 2022 measurement date, the City reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

Plan's Net Pension Liability $ 750,322 $ 489,501 $ 274,910 Pension Plan Fiduciary Net Position
Detailed information about the pension plan's fiduciary net position is available in the separately issued CalPERS' financial report (CAFR), available at the CalPERS' website.
Long-term Expected Rate of Return
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CaPERS took into account both short-term and long- term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Projected returns for all asset classes are estimated and, combined with risk estimates, are used to project compound (geometric) returns over the long term. The discount rate used to discount liabilities was informed by the long-term projected portfolio return.
The expected real rates of return by asset class are as follows:
Assumed
Asset Real Return Years
Asset Class Allocation 1 - 101.2
Global equity - cap-weighted 30.0% 4.45%
Global equity non-cap-weighted 12.0 3.84

NOTE 9 OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB)
Plan Description
The City sponsors a single-employer defined benefit OPE plan that provides medical and prescription drug coverage at retirement. Employees may continue health coverage with the City at retirement for themselves, their spouses, and dependents for life once they meet certain eligibility requirements and as long as required contributions are made.
Implementation Date
The Plan effective date was in 2011, however, the City implemented the Plan during this fiscal year because there have been only one employee that has opted in for these benefits upon retirement and the City did not understand that the required implementation date for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, pursuant to GASB Statement No. 75 was applicable to the City. Therefore, the City has made the appropriate accounting entries to record the OPEB balances as a prior period adjustment on July 1, 2022, and the entries required to update the balances to June 30, 2023.
Changes Since Prior Valuation
There are no plan provision changes since the last full valuation. For a complete description of substantive plan provisions, refer to the City of Tulelake GASB 75 Disclosures for fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 report. Roll-forward valuation results shown in this report have been projected from the prior year's valuation, with adjustments for actual premium and contribution changes since the prior year.
Benefits Provided
On retirement from CaPERS, employees with a membership date before 1/1/2013 that have reached age 50 with 5 years of City service can retire and elect any CaPERS medical plan. Employees with a membership date or after 1/1/2013 that have reached age 52 with 5 years of City service can retire and elect any CaPERS medical plan.
Contributions
Employer Subsidy: pursuant to Government Code 22892 of the Public Employees' Medical and Hospital Act (PEMHCA ), the City contributes the minimum amount allowed based on the "equal" contribution formula, which is equal to the "contribution percentage" multiplied by the PEMHCA minimum. The contribution percentage will increase by 5 percentage points annually until it equals 100%. The monthly PEMHCA minimum amounts are $149 and $151 for 2022 and 2023, respectively. The minimum employer contribution increases annually by the CPI medical care component. The amount of City-provided contribution is the same regardless of the retiree's dependent coverage and health plan choice. Retirees are required to contribute the portion of premium rates not covered by the Employer Subsidy.
Contributions: the City pays benefits as they come due
Contribution Rate: Benefits due
Reporting period contributions: $ 1,752

Total OPEB Liability (TOL)
The City's TOL was valued as of June 30, 2022 and was used to calculate the TOL measured as of June 30, 2022.
Actuarial Assumptions
The TOL as of June 30, 2022 was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified:
Summary of Assumptions
Inflation 2.30%
2.80% wage inflation plus seniority, merit, and promotion salary increases based Payroll growth on CaPERS Experience Study and Review of Actuarial Assumptions published in November 2021 for Public Agency Miscellaneous and Police members.
Investment rate of return NA; OPEB Plan is unfunded
3.69% annually which is Fidelity 20 year GO Municipal Bond Index AA/Aa or Discount rate higher on the Measurement Date. The 2-Bond Index consists of 20 general obligation bonds that mature in 20 years.
Short-term healthcare trends are based on recent plan experience. Long-term healthcare trends are based on a Society of Actuaries report performed by a Healthcare trend rates committee of actuaries and economists. The Getzen Model was used for this report. These trend rates assume that deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums will be increased periodically as trends increase over time.
Changes Since Prior Measurement Date
The Single Equivalent Discount Rate (SEDR) has increased from 2.16% as of June 30, 2021 to the liabis of June 30, 2022 based on updated municipal bond index, which caused a decrease in Second year health care trend rates have been updated to reflect actual premium increases from 2022 to 2023 as shown in the table above, which caused a decrease in the liability.
3. Health care trend rates have been updated as follows based on updated Getzen Model of Long- Run Medical Cost Trends, which caused an increase in the liability.
Discount Rate
Under GASB 75, the discount rate used in valuing OPEB liabilities as of the Measurement Date for an unfunded plan is a single rate that reflects a yield or index rate for 20-year tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA/Aa or higher (or equivalent quality on another rating scale).
For the current year's valuation, the municipal bond index as of the prior and current Measurement Dates are:
Index: Fidelity GO AA 20 Years Municipal Index: 2.16% as of June 30, 2021 and 3.69% as of June 30, 2022.
The final equivalent single discount rate for accounting disclosure as of June 30, 2022 is 3.69%. 32 City Montague, California
Notes to the Financial Statements
June 30, 2023
NOTE 9 OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) (Continued) Actuarial Cost Method
Entry Age Normal Level Percentage of Pay; a method that allocates the actuarial present value of the projected benefits of each individual on a level basis over the earnings of the individual between entry age and assumed exit age(s).
• The portion allocated to a valuation year is called the Normal Cost.
The portion allocated to past periods is called the Actuarial Accrued Liability (AAL) or Total OPEB Liability (TOL).
Census Data
Census information was provided by the City as of June 30, 2022. We have reviewed this data for reasonableness, and no material modification was made to the data.
Participation Rate
50% of active employees are assumed to elect health coverage with the City at retirement for life. For future retirees, 40% of active employees are assumed to elect spousal coverage at retirement. Husbands are assumed to be three years older than wives. Existing retirees who are currently enrolled in the City's health plans are assumed to continue coverage until death. Upon retiree's death, surviving spouses are assumed to continue coverage in the City's health plans (all of them are assumed to receive contingent pension benefit). Existing retirees who currently waived coverage are not assumed to re-enroll in the future.
Trend Rates
Historically, health care costs have increased more rapidly than the rate of inflation. In estimating the value of retiree health benefits, assumptions must be made on future increases in healthcare costs. The health care trend rates assumption used in this valuation is based on the Getzen Model of Long-Run Medical Cost Trends, which was first designed by T.E. Getzen for the Society of Actuaries (SOA) in 2007. The model is designed to make long-run forecasts and typically used to select medical trend assumptions for retiree medical valuations to present liabilities disclosed under the appropriate accounting standards, or to determine contributions under a funding policy. The long-run baseline projection and input variables were developed under the guidance of the SOA Project Oversight Group. The model is updated annually along with updated documentation and recommended input variables by the author of the model.

Notes to Schedule:
Benefit Changes: There were no changes to benefit terms that applied to all members of the Public Agency Pool. However, individual employers in the Plan may have provided a benefit improvement to their employees by granting Two Years Additional Service Credit to members retiring during a specified period (also known as "Golden Handshakes"). Employers that have done so may need to report this information as a separate liability in their financial statement as CaPERS considers such amounts to be separately financed employer-specific liabilities. These employers should consult with their auditors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND
OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS To the City Council
City of Montague, California
I have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Montague, California as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the 2222222
financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of Montague, California's basic financial Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing my audit of the financial statements, I considered City of Montague, California's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing my opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Montague, California's internal control. Accordingly, I do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Montague, California's internal control.
My consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs, I identified certain deficiencies in internal control that I consider to be material weaknesses and significant deficiencies.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. I consider the deficiencies described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2023-001 and 2023-002 to be a material weakness.
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. I consider the deficiencies described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2023-003, to be significant deficiencies.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether City of Montague, California's financial statements are free from material misstatement, I performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of my audit, and accordingly, I do not express such an opinion. The results of my tests disclosed an instance of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards, and which is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2023-004.
48 To the City Council
City of Montague, California
City of Montague, California's Response to Findings
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the City of Montague, California's response to the findings identified in my audit and described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. City of Montague, California's response was not subject to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, I express no opinion on the Purpose of This Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of my testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS and QUESTIONED COSTS
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
CURRENT YEAR FINDINGS
Finding 2023-001 Material Weakness - Lack of Effective Financial Close and Reporting Condition: Material audit adiustments were required to correct material misstatements in the financial statements. These were required in order for the financial statements to be prepared in accordance and/or conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, the City relied on the external auditor to ensure its financial statements are in accordance with GAAP and to ensure that all necessary disclosures are included in the notes to the financial statements.
Criteria: In accordance with Statement on Auditing Standards No. 122c, external auditors cannot be part of an entity's internal controls over the preparation of the financial statements and are prohibited from auditing their own work, which could impair independence. All City financial documents should be final and reconciled before the audit begins. All adjustments necessary for the financial statements to be prepared in accordance and/or conformity with GAAP should be identified and posted by the City prior to the commencement of the audit.
Cause: The City did not identify and post numerous material closing entries for the year under audit due to ineffective internal controls over the financial close process.
Effect: Financial statements, which are not in conformity with GAAP and contained material misstatements, could have been prepared and distributed. The total net effect on the change in net position was $440,147.
There are no questioned costs related to this finding.
Context: This is a repeat finding from the prior audit of the year ended June 30, 2022.
Recommendation: I recommend that management take steps to ensure that all adjustments necessary to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP be identified and posted prior to the start of the audit. A significant part of this recommendation would involve ensuring the proper year-end accruals are recorded and that all capital outlay expenditures in governmental funds are correctly recorded.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The City agrees with the finding. The City Clerk, Ruanna Smith, will work closely with the City's outside accountant to identify all year-end accruals and post them correctly, as well as ensuring all capital asset purchases subject to capitalization are recorded correctly. This will be implemented for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026 audit due to the timing of this finding and the time expected to hire an outside accountant.
Finding 2023-002 Material Weakness - Bank Reconciliations Condition: During the audit, it was noted that the City's bank reconciliations of cash in bank and investment accounts were not done on a timely basis during the fiscal year.
Criteria: The City is required to maintain and implement a system of internal controls that allows for the prevention, detection and correction of material misstatement in a timely manner. Bank reconciliations need to be done in a timely manner, and reconciling items need to be corrected, in order to prevent undetected and uncorrected material misstatements to the financial statements produced during the fiscal year and at Cause: Bank reconciliation procedures were not followed as coordinated with the contracted accountant.
City staff did not ensure that someone prepared the reconciliations when the contracted accountant did not do it.
Effect: Cash accounts were not accurate, material errors in the financial statements existed and had to be corrected by the audit, and lack of controls over cash may allow misappropriation (i.e. theft). There are no questioned costs related to this finding.
Context: This is a new finding.
50 CITY OF MONTAGUE
SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS and QUESTIONED COSTS
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
Finding 2023-002 (Continued)
Recommendation: All bank reconciliations should be completed within 30 days of receiving the bank statement. All reconciling items need to be noted on the bank reconciliation and properly recorded in the accounting system.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The City agrees with this finding. To prepare for the FY24-25 audit, the City hired a different contracted accountant that has been directed to prioritize bank reconciliations and to complete this work in a timely fashion. Due to the timing of the end of this audit this will be fully implemented during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2026.
Finding 2023-003 Significant Deficiencies - Lack of Support and Authorization for Transactions Condition: During the audit of disbursements, some receipts were missing for purchases on the City credit card. During the audit of payroll the following items were found: 1) hours listed on the employee timesheet were altered and no authorization from the employee and supervisor was evident on the timesheet; 2) although the payroll tax returns for the four quarters of the fiscal year were filed on time by an outside accountant, the City did not have copies of the returns available for the audit to examine; and 3) it was noted during the review of timesheets that several instances where overtime hours were claimed had no evidence of approval from a supervisor.
Criteria: In accordance with A87 Cost Principles under GAAP, as well as the City's own policies, the City should obtain and retain all support for transactions and proper authorizations should be noted on all transactions where authorization is required.
Cause: The City had a tremendous amount of turnover of personnel in the finance department did not identify and post numerous material closing entries for the year under audit due to ineffective internal controls over the financial close process.
Effect: There were no direct effects on the financial statements but did have an effect on the audit procedures causing alternative procedures to be performed in order to obtain appropriate audit evidence.
There are no questioned costs related to this finding.
Context: This is a new finding.
Recommendation: I recommend that management take steps to ensure that all support for transactions are obtained and kept for the required retention period according to local laws and regulations and the policies of the City. I also recommend that required approvals be documented on all support for transactions.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The City agrees with the finding. The City Clerk, Ruanna Smith, as well as the City Administrator, Dave Dunn, will ensure that the above recommendations are implemented immediately.
Finding 2023-004 Noncompliance - Annual and Quarterly Payroll Reporting Condition: During the audit, it was noted that non-compliance related to payroll tax returns for both Federal (Form 941, W2's and W3) and State (DE9) reporting were incorrect for all four quarters of the fiscal year resulting in an underreporting of social security and medicare wages and consequently the payment of taxes.
Criteria: The City is required to comply with the Federal and State laws and regulations regarding the calculation and reporting of wages and the associated payroll taxes.
Cause: This situation was due to the incorrect setup of the wages that are subject to social security and medicare taxes in the payroll system.
Effect: Errors occurred in the calculation of payroll, leading to errors in the reporting of payroll to the Federal and State tax authorities, which resulted in a failure to pay the proper amount of taxes. Therefore, the City was in noncompliance. From the research done during the audit, it appears that this situation has been happening since the 2019 calendar year.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS and QUESTIONED COSTS
For the Year Ended June 30, 2023
Finding 2023-004 (Continued)
Context: This is a new finding. There are no questioned costs related to this finding.
Recommendation: I recommended during the audit that the setup be immediately changed to correct the error for all future payrolls. I also recommend that the City investigate the extent of this issue and file corrected forms and pay under-reported taxes as required as soon as possible.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The City agrees with the finding. Payroll setup was immediately changed, and correct payroll returns were filed starting with the calendar quarter ending March 31, 2025. The City is in the process of researching the issues to past payroll returns and will file corrections before the end of calendar year 2026.
PRIOR YEAR FINDINGS - FINANCIAL STATEMENT AUDIT
Finding 2022-001 Material Weakness - Lack of Effective Financial Close and Reporting Condition: Material audit adjustments were required to correct material misstatements in the financial statements. These were required in order for the financial statements to be prepared in accordance and/or conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). In addition, the City relied on the external auditor to ensure its financial statements are in accordance with GAAP and to ensure that all necessary disclosures are included in the notes to the financial statements.
Recommendation: I recommended that management take steps to ensure that all adjustments necessary to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP be identified and posted prior to the start of the Status: The City has not implemented the recommendations.
Finding 2022-002 Noncompliance - Use of Transportation Development Act (TDA) Funds Condition: During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, the City used TDA funds to loan to another City fund for purposes of cash flow that was not related to expenditures for streets and roads.
Recommendation: 1 recommended that careful attention be given to all funds restricted by external sources, such as funds received under the TDA regulations, ensuring they are spent only on allowable costs. I also recommended that the funds be returned to the proper fund immediately.
Status: The City fully implemented the recommendations. 52 RECEIVED

Thank you for your interest in volunteering with the City of Montague Fire Department. This is a noble profession with a long tradition of service; one that offers camaraderie and the satisfaction of helping others. We hold volunteers to a high standard- Montague Fire Department is a fully volunteer department. We are equipped to serve the City of Montague and the Montague Fire Protection District with fire, rescue and medical operations.

of the year is not as crazy. We have had a few sewer
plugs and some issues at the sewer plant. We had a
circuit breaker burn up at the water plant. And the new one we installed is not working. These issues have
taken up a lot of our time to try and get them fixed.
We are starting fill all the pot holes in town. We are
starting vehicle maintenance.
We are moving forward with the sewer grant. We are
taking well samples and sewer influent to test what is
in our sewer water.
