Gains and losses related to changes in total pension liability and fiduciary net position are recognized in pension expense systematically over time. The first amortized amounts are recognized in pension expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions and are to be recognized in future pension expense. The amortization period differs depending on the source of gain or loss. The difference between projected and actual earnings is amortized straight-line over 5 years. All other amounts are amortized straight-line over the average expected remaining service lives of all members that are provided with benefits (active, inactive, and retired) as of the beginning of the measurement period.
J. Fund Equity
In the Fund Financial Statements, governmental funds may classify fund balances into five components whereby each component identifies the extent to which the Authority is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. The five components of the fund balance are as follows:
Nonspendable: Resources that 1) not in spendable form, such as inventories, prepaids, long-term receivables, or non-financial assets held for resale, or 2) required to be maintained intact such as an endowment.
Restricted: Resources that are subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions; these restrictions would be either 1) externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or 2) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed: Revenues that are constrained to specific purposes by a formal action of the Authority’s Board, which constitutes the most binding constraint such as an ordinance. The constraint remains binding unless removed in the same formal manner by the Authority’s Board. The Authority’s Board action to commit fund balance must occur within the fiscal reporting period while the amount committed may be determined subsequently.
31 City of Palmdale Housing Authority
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
Assigned: Resources that are constrained by the Authority’s intent to be used for specific purposes, but that neither restricted nor committed. This policy delegates to the Finance Manager the authority to assign unrestricted fund balance amounts where the Authority’s intent is for those amounts to be used for specific purposes. This delegation of authority is for the sole purpose of reporting these amounts in the annual financial statements.
Unassigned: Within the General Fund, the residual resources, either positive or negative, in excess of what can be properly classified in one of the other four fund balance categories. Within all other governmental funds, the negative residual resources in excess of what can be properly classified as nonspendable, restricted, or committed.
When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted (committed, assigned, or unassigned) fund balances are available, the Authority’s policy is to first apply restricted fund balance. When expenditures are incurred for purposes for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the Authority’s policy is to first apply committed fund balance, then assigned fund balances, and finally unassigned fund balance.
K. Deficit Fund Equity
The following funds had a deficit fund balance at June 30, 2022 in the amount indicated:
Major Special Revenue Funds:
Housing Facilities Fund $ (3,585,195)
Management anticipates that these deficits will be resolved in future years as additional operating revenues become available. It is anticipated occupancy levels at the Mobile Home Parks will continue to remain high and consistent and continue to reduce the deficit in the Housing Authority Mobile Home Park Fund to positive levels once the Mobile Home Park loan is paid off.
L. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
M. Implemented Accounting Pronouncements
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) releases new accounting and financial reporting standards which may have a significant impact on the Authority’s financial reporting process. New standards applicable to the year ending June 30, 2022 are as follows:
GASB Statement No. 87 – Leases. T he implementation of this standard establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financings of the right to use an underlying asset. The standard requires recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 89 – Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred before the End of a Construction Period. This statement establishes accounting requirements for interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period. This Statement requires that interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period be recognized as an expense in the period in which the cost is incurred for financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 90, Majority Equity Interests – (an amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 61). The primary objective of this Statement is to improve consistency and comparability of reporting a government’s majority equity interest in a legally separate organization and to improve the relevance of financial statement information for certain component units. It defines a majority equity interest and specifies that a majority equity interest in a legally separate organization should be reported as an investment if a government’s holding of the equity interest meets the definition of an investment. For all other holdings of a majority equity interest in a legally separate organization, a government should report the legally separate organization as a component unit, and the government or fund that holds the equity interest should report an asset related to the majority equity interest using the equity method. The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements. 32 City of Palmdale Housing Authority
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
GASB Statement No. 92 – Omnibus 2020. The objectives of this Statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting and to improve the consistency of authoritative literature by addressing practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements. The requirements of this Statement are effective for reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2021. The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 93 – Replacement of Interbank Offered Rates. The objective of this Statement is to address the accounting and financial reporting implications that result from the replacement of an IBOR. The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 97 – Certain Component Unit Criteria, and Accounting and Financial Reporting for Internal Revenue Code Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plans – An Amendment of GASB Statement No.14 and No.84 and A Supersession of GASB Statement No.32. The objective of this Statement is (1) increase consistency and comparability related to the reporting of fiduciary component units in circumstances in which a potential component unit does not have a governing board and the primary government performs the duties that a governing board typically would perform; (2) mitigate costs associated with the reporting of certain defined contribution pension plans, defined contribution other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plans, and employee benefit plans other than pension plans or OPEB plans (other employee benefit plans) as fiduciary component units in fiduciary fund financial statements; and (3) enhance the relevance, consistency, and comparability of the accounting and financial reporting for Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 457 deferred compensation plans (Section 457 plans) that meet the definition of a pension plan and for benefits provided through those plans. The Authority has determined that there is no material impact on the financial statements. (2) Cash and Investments

B. Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk in the risk that changes in market interest 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 to changes in market interest rates. The Investment Policy of the City of Palmdale, Sections 4.1 and 4.2, provide guidelines for managing risk. One of the ways that the City of Palmdale manages its exposure to interest rate risk is by purchasing a combination of shorter term and longer term investments and by timing cash flows from maturities so that a portion of the portfolio is maturing or coming close to maturity evenly over time as necessary to provide the cash flow and liquidity needed for operations.
C. Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligations to the holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below i s the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code, the City of Palmdale’s Investment Policy, or the Authority’s debt agreements, and the actual rating as of year-end for each investment type.

D. Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party.
The California Government Code and the City’s Investment Policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments other than the following provision for deposits: The California 34 City of Palmdale Housing Authority
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the governmental unit). The market value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies.
California law also allows financial institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits.
City deposits with financial institutions in excess of federal depository insurance limits of $250,000 were held in collateralized accounts held with the City of Palmdale. As of June 30, 2022, City investments were held by the safekeeping department of the broker- dealer (counterparty) used by the City of Palmdale to buy the securities in the name of the City.
E. Disclosures relating to Fair Value of Investments
The Authority categorized its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
Deposits and withdrawals in governmental investment pools, such as the City’s Investment Pool are made on the basis of $1 and not fair value. Accordingly, the measurement of fair value of these types of investments is based on an uncategorized input not defined as a Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3 input. Money market investments are carried at amortized cost. (3) Notes Receivable
Notes Receivable in the amount of $24,846,208, are reported on the governmental fund financial statements and the government-wide financial statements. The balances consist of Affordable Housing Project loans made through various grants for low t o moderate- income homeowners seeking to improve their homes. As the Notes are repaid, proceeds are used to continue the Affordable Housing Programs.

(6) Interfund Due To/From and Advances Due To/From
A. Advances and Due To/From Other Funds
The advances due to/from are reported on the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet of the Housing Asset Fund and Housing Facilities Fund as a result of the dissolution of the former Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Palmdale resulting from the acquisition of three mobile home parks purchased during fiscal year 2002-2003. Upon acquisition, the Authority assumed the prior park owner’s liabilities which were payable to the former CRA Low and Moderate Income Housing fund and City under the terms of an operating agreement. The operating agreement establishes priorities for the use of revenues from operation of the parks and provides for repayment of the advances from net income once expenses, debt service, operating, and capital reserve requirements are met. In the interim, additional liabilities and program/project management fees will continue to accrue to the long-term advances due the Authority - Housing Asset Fund if there are shortfalls in expected payment. These advances will be repaid when net income is sufficient under the operating agreement. As of June 30, 2022, the balance of these liabilities was $1,186,001.
Advances Due To/From Other Funds for the year ended June 30, 2022 were as follows:
Payable To: Payable From: Amount
Housing Asset Fund Housing Facilities Fund $ 1,186,001
Advances Total Due From/To Other Funds $ 1,186,001
B. Interfund Promissory Note Between the Housing Facilities Fund and the Housing Asset Fund The Authority and the City of Palmdale former Community Redevelopment Agency (Agency) previously entered into loan and repayment agreements whereby the Agency loaned the proceeds of a 1997 Series A (refunded by 2005 Series E) and Series B (refunded by 2003 Series C) Tax Allocation Bond debt issuances to the Authority.
The proceeds of the Bonds were used to finance the acquisition, sale, and improvement of three mobile home parks (“Parks”) in the City. Immediately upon acquiring the Parks, the Agency sold them pursuant to an Affordable Housing Agreement, which reserved an option for the Agency to later designate another entity to take title of the Parks. On March 26, 2003, the Agency exercised this option by entering into a Cooperation Agreement with the Housing Authority of the City of Palmdale. Title to the property transferred from the prior owner of the Parks to the Housing Authority on April 4, 2003.
The liability for the 1997 Series B Bonds was fully defeased in December 2003 in the amount of $5,090,000 by the Agency’s 2003 Tax Allocation Series C Bonds. The Agency advance refunded the 1997 Series B Bonds to take advantage of the current market and realize economic savings. The liability for the 1997 Series A Bonds was fully defeased in August 2005 in the amount of $13,170,000 by the Agency’s 2005 Tax Allocation Series E Bonds. The Agency advance refunded the 1997 Series A Bonds to take advantage of the current market and realize economic savings.
Repayment agreements between the former Community Redevelopment Agency and the Authority require the Authority to pay the former Community Redevelopment Agency under the same terms as the Bonds were issued. The 2003 Series C Bonds and 2005 Series E Bonds were secured by Project Area No. 2A’s Housing Set-Aside revenue and certain related reimbursements provided for in the Affordable Housing Agreement. The Housing Authority was to use operating income from the Parks to repay the former Agency, which was supposed to in turn, pay principal and interest with respect to the 2003 Series C Bonds and 2005 Series E Bonds as they become due. Under the 2003 amended Indenture, the Bonds were to be paid and secured by the tax increment of the former Community Redevelopment Agency and principal and interest was no longer required to be paid from the Authority.
As the result of the dissolution of the former Community Redevelopment Agency and the Authority assuming the duties of the former Community Redevelopment Housing Development Fund, the agreement will be maintained by the Housing Asset Fund which is now classified as an Interfund Promissory Note effective February 1, 2012. All proceeds from repayment of the note must be used in accordance with applicable housing related provisions of Community Redevelopment Law. During FY 2021-22, the Boulder Mobile Home parks paid $991,667 of principal and $366,173 interest for a total $1,357,840 to the Housing Asset Fund. The balance of the Note as of June 30, 2022 is $7,385,000. The remaining debt service schedule below uses a blended interest rate ranging from 3.7% to
4.75% due to the note’s variable interest rate.

2018 Habitat for Heroes Development Loan
A Cooperative Agreement, dated as of September 3, 2014, was entered into by and between the City of Palmdale and the Housing Authority of the City of Palmdale. The City of Palmdale is the owner of certain real property located at the northeast corner of Division Street and Avenue R (“Property”). Habitat for Humanity of San Fernando/Santa Clarita, Inc., a California nonprofit public benefit corporation (the “Developer”) proposes to develop on the Property 50 units of single-family housing to be sold at affordable cost to income qualified military veterans (“Project”) with financial assistance from the Authority.
The Authority, the City, and Developer concurrently entered into a Memorandum of Understanding by which the Authority and Developer will negotiate an Affordable Housing Agreement, setting forth the terms and conditions by which the Authority will sell the Property to the Developer and carry back the purchase price. The Authority will take a promissory note from Developer for repayment to the Authority of the Project Fees. The City agrees to defer its collection of the Project Fees charged by the City in relation to the Project. The Project Fees include but not lim ited to park development fees, traffic impact fees, drainage fees, building permit fees, and engineering fees.

Contributions - Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers are determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in rate. Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rates of employees.
For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Authority’s proportionate share of the City’s contribution to the Plan was $118,715.
B. Pension Liabilities, Pension Expenses and Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions As of June 30, 2022, the Authority reported a liability of $603,083 for its proportionate share of the City’s net pension liability.
The net pension liability of the Plan was measured as of June 30, 2021 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, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021. The Authority’s proportion of the City’s net pension liability was based on the Authority’s Fiscal Year 2021 actual contributions to the City’s pension plan relative to the total contribution of the City as a whole.
At June 30, 2021, the Authority’s proportion was 2.00% which is flat to its proportion measured as of June 30, 2020.
For the year ended June 30, 2022, the Authority’s recognized pension expense was $31,628. At June 30, 2022, the Authority reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

The amount of $310,373 reported as deferred outflows of resources related to pensions resulting from the Authority’s contributions to the City’s plan subsequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension liability in the year ended June 30, 2023. The amount of $310,373 reported as deferred inflows of resources related to the difference between projected and actual earnings on plan investments will be recognized as an increase in the net pension liability in the year ended June 30, 2023. Other amounts reported as deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions will be recognized as pension expense as follows:

Actuarial Assumptions - The Authority’s proportion of the City’s total pension liability was derived from the June 30, 2020 valuation being rolled forward to determine the June 30, 2021 total pension liability, based on the following actuarial methods and assumptions:
Actuarial Valuation Date June 30, 2020
Actuarial Measurement Date June 30, 2021
Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal Cost Method

The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS’ specific data. The table includes 20 years of mortality improvements using Society of Actuaries Scale BB. For more details on this table, please refer to the 2017 experience study report.
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that employee contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that the contributions w ill be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contributions rates and the employee rate. Based on those assumptions, each pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to m ake all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
In determining the long-term expected 7.15 percent rate of return on pension plan investments, CalPERS took into account both short and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using historical returns of all the pension funds’ asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11+ years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to the account for assumed
The table below reflects long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return w as calculated using the capital market assumptions applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These geometric rates of return are net of administrative expenses.

Discount Rate - The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. The tests revealed the assets would not run out.
Therefore, the current 7.15 p ercent discount rate is appropriate, and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not deemed necessary. The long-term expected discount rate of 7.15 percent is applied to all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund. The cash flows used in the testing were developed assuming that both members and employers will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. The stress test results are presented in a detailed report called “GASB Crossover Testing Report” that can be obtained at CalPERS’ website under the GASB 68 section.

A. Revenue Bonds
2015 Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds Payable ($4,235,000) - O n September 3, 2015, the Housing Authority of the City of Palmdale issued $4,235,000 of Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds (2015 Bonds). The Authority did not apply for a rating on the bonds, and no such rating should be assumed based upon any other Authority or City rating that may be obtained. Interest on the 2015 Bonds is payable semi-annually on December 1 and June 1 at rates ranging from 2.625 percent to 5.25 percent per annum. Principal installments are payable June 1 of each year from 2017 to 2045.
The 2015 Bonds maturing on or after June 1, 2026, may be redeemed on or after June 1, 2025, from moneys deposited in the Redemption Fund from any source of available funds, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of Bonds called for redemption, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, without premium.
The 2015 Bonds maturing on or after June 1, 2025, are subject to extraordinary mandatory redemption from proceeds derived from sale or part of any of the Housing Facilities not elected by the Authority to be deposited in the Repair & Replacement Fund and used for the acquisition and/or construction of improvements and extensions to the Housing Facilities, but instead transferred to the Redemption Fund, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of Bonds called for redemption, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, without premium, on any date.
The 2015 Bonds maturing on any date, are subject to extraordinary mandatory redemption from insurance proceeds or condemnation proceeds not used for the purpose of repairing or replacing the property damaged, destroyed or taken, and transferred to the Redemption Fund pursuant to the Indenture or from proceeds of any foreclosure action under any of the Deeds of Trust transferred to the Redemption Fund, at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof to be redeemed, together w ith accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, without premium.
The proceeds of the 2015 Bonds were used to finance the acquisition of the Impressions, La Quinta, Park Vista, and Summerwood Apartments (collectively, the “Housing Facilities”) all located within the City of Palmdale, to finance the costs to renovate portions of the Housing Facilities, pay costs related to the issuance of the bonds, and make a deposit to a Bond Reserve Account for the Bonds.
The 2015 Bonds are lim ited obligations of the Housing Authority of the City of Palmdale and are secured by a first pledge of all of the Net Revenues of the Housing Facilities and by the Trustee’s interest in a Deed of Trust for each of the Housing Facilities. Net Revenues are derived primarily from rents received by the Authority from the operation of the Housing Facilities, less the costs of the operation and maintenance of the Housing Facilities. The 2015 Bonds are payable solely from the Net Revenues and other assets pledged under the Indenture. The 2015 Bonds do not constitute a debt or liability of the City, the State, or any political subdivision thereof, other than the Authority to the limited extent of the pledge.
Failure by the Authority to pay debt service on the Bonds constitutes an event of default under the Indenture and the Trustee is permitted to pursue remedies at law or in equity to enforce the Authority's obligation to make such payments. The Trustee has no right to accelerate the total unpaid principal amount of the debt service on the Bonds by reason of the occurrence of an event of default under the Indenture. If there is a default under the Indenture, the primary remedy of the Trustee is to foreclose on the real and personal property security granted pursuant to the Deeds of Trust and related documents. All amounts collected upon foreclosure of the Housing Facilities pursuant to the Deeds of Trust, after payment of costs of foreclosure, will first be used to pay amounts owing under the 42 City of Palmdale Housing Authority

Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Authority 's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we 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 our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our 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.

1 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our 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 our opinion. 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 GAAS 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 the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we:
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 Authority’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 our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Authority’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
We are 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 we identified during the audit.
Required Supplementary Information
Management has omitted the 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, 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by the missing information.
2 Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 30, 2023, on our consideration of the Authority’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our 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 Authority’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 the Authority’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
