2 Auditors’ 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 auditors’ report that includes our 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 Program’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 Program’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.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards and the AVA Program Handbook In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the AVA Program Handbook, we have also issued our report dated March 14, 2025, on our consideration of the Program’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 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 internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the AVA Program Handbook in considering the Program’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

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 AND
THE ABANDONED VEHICLE ABATEMENT PROGRAM HANDBOOK
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Patterson
Patterson, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and certain provisions of the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program Handbook (AVA Program Handbook), the financial statement of the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program (the “Program”) of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”), for the year ended June 30 2024, and the related notes to the financial statement, and have issued our report thereon dated March 14, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statement, we considered the Program’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 our opinion on the financial statement, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Program’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Program’s internal control.
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. 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.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

4 Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Program’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 or the AVA Program Handbook.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal controls and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Program’s internal controls or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the AVA Program Handbook in considering the Program’s internal controls and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program
Notes to the Financial Statement
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
11 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Change in Fund Balance (the “Statement”) of the Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program (the “Program”) of the City of Patterson, California (the “City), have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the Program’s accounting policies are described below.
A. The Reporting Entity
The Abandoned Vehicle Abatement Program is a statewide program administered by the California Highway Patrol (CHP). The City administers and operates the local vehicle abatement program pursuant to Section 22710 of the Vehicle Code, Patterson Municipal City Code Section 10.24.010 et seq., and the Stanislaus Council of Governments (StanCOG) Abandoned Vehicle Program and Plan. Section 9250.7 of the Vehicle code establishes the funding source for the abatement of abandoned vehicles by a county-based Service Authority (the “Authority”), pursuant to the provisions of Section 22710 of the Vehicle Code. The Vehicle Code imposes a service fee of one dollar ($1) on vehicles registered to an owner with an address in the county that establishes the Authority. This fee is paid to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) at the time of registration or renewal of registration. The DMV, after deducting its administrative costs, at least quarterly transmits the net amount collected to the State Controller’s Office (SCO) for deposit in the Abandoned Vehicle Trust Fund. All money in the fund is continuously appropriated to the SCO for allocation to an Authority that has an approved Program, and for payment of the administrative costs of the SCO. StanCOG, the Authority, distributes Program funds to participating entities based on the allocation determined in the Vehicle Abatement Services Agreement.
The Statement is intended to present the results of operations, and those program revenues and expenditures of the Program that are accounted for within the General Fund of the City. They are not intended to present the financial position or results of operations of the City as a whole.
B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures/expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements.
Governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting and "current financial resources" measurement focus. Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become measurable and available. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. The Program’s accrual period is generally 60 days after fiscal year end. Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred.
C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

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
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
of the City of Patterson
Patterson, California
We 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 the City of Patterson (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 14, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’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 our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.
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. 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.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

2 Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s basic 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 City’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.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM,
ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE
UNIFORM GUIDANCE, AND ON SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURS OF FEDERAL AWARDS Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council
of the City of Patterson
Patterson, California
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We have audited City of Patterson, California’s (the “City”) compliance with the types of compliance requirements identified as subject to audit in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City’s major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2024. The City’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditors’ results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2024.
Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above.
Responsibilities of Management for Compliance
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to the City’s federal programs.

4 Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on the City’s compliance based on our audit. 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, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about the City’s compliance with the requirements of each major federal program as a whole.
In performing an audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, we:
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, 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 City’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Obtain an understanding of the City’s internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified.

5 Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance.
Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.
Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated March 14, 2025, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the 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. In our opinion, the schedule of expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Transportation Development Act Fund (the “TDA Fund”) of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”) which comprise the balance sheet as of June 30, 2024 and the related statement of revenues, expenditures, and change in fund balance for the year then ended, and the related notes to the financial statements.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of TDA Fund as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit 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. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the TDA Fund of the City and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2024, and change in its financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
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 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 TDA Fund’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.

2 Auditors’ 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 auditors’ report that includes our 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 TDA Fund’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 TDA Fund’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 financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the financial statements is not affected by this missing information.

3 Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the Transportation Development Act, we have also issued our report dated March 14, 2025, on our consideration of the TDA Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with the statutes, rules, and regulations of the California Transportation Development Act. 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 TDA Fund’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 TDA Fund’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

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, AND WITH THE STATUTES, RULES
AND REGULATIONS OF THE CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION DEVELOPMENT ACT Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
of the City of Patterson
Patterson, California
We 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 Transportation Development Act Fund (the “TDA Fund”) of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the TDA Fund’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 14, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’s internal control over TDA Fund financial reporting (“internal control”) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.
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. 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.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section 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 have not been identified.
Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

6 Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s Transportation Development Act Fund financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with the applicable statutes, rules and regulations of the Transportation Development Act and the allocation instructions and resolutions of the Stanislaus Council of Governments as required by Sections 6666 of Title 21, Division 3, Chapter 2, Article 5.5 of the California Code of Regulations, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of 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 or the Transportation Development Act.
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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
13 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements are prepared from the accounts and financial transactions of the Transportation Development Act Fund (“TDA Fund”) of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”) and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the City’s accounting policies applicable to the TDA Fund are described below.
A. The Reporting Entity
The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government and provides the following services as authorized: public safety (police, fire and civil defense), highway and streets, sanitation, health and social services, culture-recreation, education, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services. The City also provides water, garbage, and sewer service. It is governed by an elected five member council.
The financial statements of the TDA Fund are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of only those transactions attributable to the TDA Fund administered and disbursed by the City.
B. Fund Accounting
In accordance with Section 99400 (a) and (c) of the Transportation Development Act, monies are reported in the TDA Fund. The monies of the TDA Fund are the City’s share of the Transportation Development Act allocations that are legally restricted for specific purposes. The operation of this fund is accounted for as a “Special Revenue Fund” in a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balance, revenues, and expenditures.
C. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
The TDA Fund’s financial statements include a balance sheet and a statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances. This fund is accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and change in fund balance presents increases (revenue and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balance. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period. The City defines available to be within 60 days.
D. Cash and Investments
The Transportation Development Act Fund’s cash is pooled with the City’s internal investment pool. Cash equivalents are reported as cash and are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition.
E. Fund Balance
The City reports fund balance for governmental funds in specific classifications (nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned), which creates a hierarchy primarily based on the extent to which the City is bound to the constraints on the specific purpose for which funds can be spent. The TDA fund only receives restricted revenues, therefore any remaining fund balance is restricted by nature of the revenue received.

14 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) F. Use of Estimates

Note 4 – Transportation Development Act Compliance Requirements Allocations and disbursements of the State Transit Assistance Fund and the Local Transportation Fund are made by the Stanislaus Council of Governments.

AGENDA REPORT
Chair Clauzel and Members of the Patterson Public Financing Authority Fernando Ulloa, Executive Director
Kevin Williams, Interim Finance Director
MEETING DATE: May 6, 2025
ITEM NO: 7.3
SUBJECT: Accept the Patterson Public Financing Authority’s 2023-24 Financial Audit Report.
RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Accept the Patterson Public Financing Authority’s 2023-24 Financial Audit Report.
BACKGROUND
The Patterson Public Financing Authority publishes financial statements presented in conformance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The financial statement was audited by the independent public accounting firm of The Pun Group, LLP, whose unmodified opinion is included within the financial section of the report. The unmodified opinion indicates that the financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Patterson Public Financing Authority as of June 30, 2024, and the results of operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
As part of the audit, The Pun Group, LLP also reviewed and performed tests of the Authority’s internal accounting control procedures to determine if there are any material weaknesses or instances of non-compliance. Based on the audit, there is no instance of non-compliance.
The Patterson Public Financing Authority’s 2023-24 financial report is available on the City of Patterson’s website and is attached to this staff report.
Representative of The Pun Group, LLP will be present to discuss the audit and answer questions.
ANALYSIS
The Government-wide Net position in the Authority’s totaled a deficit of $911,848 as of June 30,
7.3 Packet Pg. 354
2024, which changed $1,142,568 from the ending balance in the prior fiscal year.
The governmental fund balance in the Authority’s totaled approximately $61.6 million as of June 30, 2024, which was $3.3 million more than the ending balance in the prior fiscal year.
The difference between Government-wide Net position and governmental fund balance are the long-term liabilities that are not due and payable in the current period and the interest payable on long-term debt does not require current financial resources and therefore are not reported in the governmental funds.
FISCAL IMPACT
Acceptance of this report does not affect the Authority’s budget or its financial condition. The report merely reflects an audit of the Authority’s financial records at June 30, 2024.

Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors
of the Patterson Public Financing Authority
Patterson, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund of the Patterson Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”), a component unit of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Authority’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, and each major fund of the Authority, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit 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. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 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 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 Authority’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.

2 Auditors’ 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 auditors’ report that includes our 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Budgetary Comparison Schedules, as listed in the accompanying table of contents, 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. We 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 our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We 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.

3 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 this missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 14, 2025, 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.

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
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors
of the Patterson Public Financing Authority
Patterson, California
We 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 and each major fund of the Patterson Public Financing Authority (the “Authority”), a component unit of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Authority’s basic financial statements, as listed in the table of contents, and have issued our report thereon March 14, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Authority’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 our opinions on the financial statement, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control.
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 Authority’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. 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.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies.
Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

6 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 Authority’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 Authority’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
25 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The basic financial statements of the Patterson Public Financing Authority (the “Authority” or “PPFA”), a component unit of the City of Patterson, California (the “City”), have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the Authority’s accounting policies are described below.
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The Authority was formed in 2001 pursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement between the City and the former Redevelopment Agency of the City. The Authority is authorized to borrow money for the purpose of financing the acquisition of bonds, notes, and other obligations of, or for the purpose of making loans to, public entities, including the Authority and to provide financing for public capital improvements for lease to public entities, including the Authority. The members of the City Council also sit as the Board of Directors of the Authority.
B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
Fund Accounting
The accounts of the Authority are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures or expenses as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
Government–Wide Financial Statements
The Authority’s government-wide financial statements include a statement of net position and a statement of activities. These statements present summaries of governmental activities for the Authority.
These financial statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the Authority’s assets and liabilities, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying statement of net position. The statement of activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances in the statement of net position have been eliminated. The following interfund activities have been eliminated:
Due from and to other funds

For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
26 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental fund financial statements include a balance sheet and a statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for all major governmental funds. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in net position as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the government-wide financial statements. The Authority has presented all major funds that met the applicable criteria.
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances present increases (revenue and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balances.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the Authority is interest income. Certain indirect costs are included in program expenses reported for individual functions and activities.
Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
The reconciliation of the fund financial statements to the government-wide financial statements is provided to explain the differences.
Governmental funds of the Authority are outlined below:
PPFA 2013 Heartland Ranch Revenue Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the 2013 Heartland Ranch Revenue Bonds (“HR”).
PPFA 2013 Authority Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the 2013 Authority Bonds.
PPFA 2023 Authority Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the 2023 Authority Bonds.
C. Cash and Investments
The Authority’s cash and investments considered to be cash equivalents, consist of cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are combined with investments and reported as cash and investments. The Authority's cash and investments are held by the City in its pooled cash and investments, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures.
Highly liquid market investments with maturities of one year or less at time of purchase are stated at amortized cost. All other investments are stated at fair value. Market value is used as fair value for those securities for which market quotations are readily available.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
27 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) C. Cash and Investments (Continued)
Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances. Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.
U.S. GAAP defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and establishes disclosures about fair value measurement. Investments, unless otherwise specified, recorded at fair value in the Statements of Net Position, are categorized based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their fair value. Levels of inputs are as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in active markets at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable for the assets or liabilities through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
D. Restricted Cash and Investments
Certain restricted cash and investments are held by a fiscal agent for the redemption of bonded debt and for acquisition and construction of capital projects.
E. Long-Term Debt
In the government-wide financial statements, long-term liabilities and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities Statement of Net Position. Initial issue bond premiums and discounts, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. The difference between the reacquisition price of refunding bonds and the net carrying amount of refunded debt (deferred amount on refunding) is amortized over the shorter of the lives of the refunding debt or remaining life of the refunded debt.
Bond issuance costs except for insurance, are expenses in the period incurred. Amortization of bond premiums or discounts, issuance costs, and deferred amounts on refunding is included in interest expense.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums, discounts, and issuance costs during the period issued. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received are reported as other financing sources, while discounts are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.
F. Net Position
For government-wide financial statements, net position is categorized as follows:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, reduced by the outstanding balances of debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. There is no net investment in capital assets as of June 30, 2024.

28 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) F. Net Position (Continued)
Restricted – This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets. There is no restricted net position as of June 30, 2024.
Unrestricted – This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.
When expenses are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available, the Authority’s policy is to apply restricted net position first.
G. Fund Balances
For the Authority’s fund financial statements, fund balances are categorized as follows:
Nonspendable – Items that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, such as prepaid items and inventories and long term receivables, or items that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact, such as principal of an endowment or revolving loan funds.
Restricted – Restricted fund balances encompass the portion of net fund resources subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions. This includes externally imposed restrictions by creditors, such as through debt covenants, grantors, contributors, laws or regulations of other governments, as well as restrictions imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
When expenditures are incurred for purposes where only unrestricted fund balances are available, the City uses the unrestricted resources in the following order: committed, assigned, and unassigned.
H. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosure. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

A. Cash Deposits
The carrying amounts of the Authority’s pooled cash and investment with the City was $0 at June 30, 2024. The Authority pools its cash and investments of all funds with the City of Patterson, California to facilitate the management of cash and achieve the goal of obtaining the highest yield with the greatest safety and least risk. The pool is managed by the City Treasurer for investing, except for certain restricted funds and investments held in trust, which are held and invested by outside custodians through contractual agreements. These restricted funds include cash with fiscal agents. The total amount of which was collateralized or insured with securities held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name is discussed below.
Investments held in the City of Patterson's cash and investments pool are available on demand. Information regarding the City's cash and investment pools is described in the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City's name.
The market value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City's cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits; however, the City has not waived the collateralization requirements.

C. Risk Disclosures
Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is 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. One of the ways that the Authority's interest rate risk is mitigated 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.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the Authority's investments to market rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the Authority's investments by maturity as of June 30, 2024:
12 Months

Total investments $ 5,037,551 60,892,721 $ - $ - $ 55,855,170 $ Maturity
Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of 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. Presented below is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of the fiscal year for each investment type.

On March 1, 2024, the PPFA issued $54,370,000 of special tax revenue refunding bonds to refund the 2013 PPFA Series A and B Bonds. As a result, the 2013 PPFA Series B Bonds are considered defeased and the liability has been removed from the governmental activities column of the statement of net position.

37 Budgetary Information
The Authority maintains budgetary controls in order to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The Authority maintains an encumbrance accounting system to provide management with information regarding obligations against appropriations. Budgetary compliance is based on expenditures during the period (U.S. GAAP), rather than expenditures and encumbrances (non-GAAP).
Because appropriations lapse at June 30, encumbrances outstanding at June 30, 2024 are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Appropriations for fiscal year 2024 will provide authority to complete those transactions.
The Authority is required by its municipal code to adopt an annual budget on or before June 30 for the ensuing fiscal year. From the effective date of the budget, the amounts become the "annual appropriated budget".
The following procedures are performed by the Authority in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:
1. The Finance Director submits a preliminary budget by June 30 of each year to Board of Directors. This allows the Authority to continue normal operations until the final budget is adopted in July. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayers' comments.
3. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department, and division. The government department heads may make transfers of appropriation within a department. Transfers of appropriations between departments requires approval of the City Manager. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is the fund level.
4. The budget is legally adopted through the passage of a council resolution.
5. The Board of Directors may amend the budget by resolution during the fiscal year. The City Manager may transfer appropriations from one program, activity, or object to another within the same fund. All appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year to the extent they have not been expended. Capital project funds are based on a project time frame, rather than a fiscal year "operating" time frame reappropriating unused appropriations from year to year until project completion.
6. A budget review is presented to the City Council by the City Manager mid-year and approved additions or changes are legally adopted through Council resolution.
7. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the funds.
8. Budgets for the funds are adopted on a basis consistent with United States generally accepted accounting principles.

AGENDA REPORT
Chair Clauzel and Members of the West Patterson Financing Authority Fernando Ulloa, Executive Director
Kevin Williams, Interim Finance Director
MEETING DATE: May 6, 2025
ITEM NO: 7.4
SUBJECT: Accept the West Patterson Financing Authority’s 2023-24 Financial Audit Report.
RECOMMENDATION
Motion to Accept the West Patterson Financing Authority’s 2023-24 Financial Audit Report.
BACKGROUND
The West Patterson Financing Authority publishes financial statements presented in conformance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The financial statements were audited by the independent public accounting firm of The Pun Group, LLP, whose unmodified opinion is included within the financial section of the report. The unmodified opinion indicates that the financial statements present fairly the financial position of the West Patterson Financing Authority as of June 30, 2024, and the results of operations, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
As part of the audit, The Pun Group, LLP also reviewed and performed tests of the Authority’s internal accounting control procedures to determine if there are any material weaknesses or instances of non-compliance. Based on the audit, there is no instance of non-compliance.
The West Patterson Financing Authority’s 2023-24 financial report is available on the City of Patterson’s website and is attached to this staff report.
Representative of The Pun Group, LLP will be present to discuss the audit and answer questions.
ANALYSIS
The Government-wide Net position in the Authority’s totaled a deficit of $63 million as of June
7.4 Packet Pg. 399
30, 2024, which decreased $4 million from the ending balance in the prior fiscal year.
The governmental fund balance in the Authority’s totaled $29.8 million as of June 30, 2024, which was $4.6 million more than the ending balance in the prior fiscal year.
The difference between Government-wide Net position and governmental fund balance are the long-term liabilities that are not due and payable in the current period and interest payable on long-term debt does not require current financial resources and therefore are not reported in the governmental funds.
FISCAL IMPACT
Acceptance of this report does not affect the Authority’s budget or its financial condition. The report merely reflects an audit of the Authority’s financial records at June 30, 2024.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Board of Directors
of the West Patterson Financing Authority
Patterson, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities and each major fund of the West Patterson Financing Authority (the “Authority”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the basic financial statements, which collectively comprise the Authority’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, and each major fund of the Authority, as of June 30, 2024, and the respective changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit 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. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Authority, and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our 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 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 Authority’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.

2 Auditors’ 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 auditors’ report that includes our 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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 auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America 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
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Budgetary Comparison Schedules, as listed in the accompanying table of contents, 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. We 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 our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We 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.

3 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 this missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 14, 2025, 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.

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
Independent Auditors’ Report
To the Board of Directors
of the West Patterson Financing Authority
Patterson, California
We 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 and each major fund of the West Patterson Financing Authority (the “Authority”) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes to the basic financial statements, which collectively comprise Authority’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 14, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Authority’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 our opinions on the financial statement, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Authority’s internal control.
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 Authority’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. 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.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies.
Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.

6 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 Authority’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 Authority’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
25 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The basic financial statements of the West Patterson Financing Authority (the “Authority” or “WPFA”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as applied to governmental agencies. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (“GASB”) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the Authority’s accounting policies are described below.
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The Authority was formed in 2001 pursuant to a joint exercise of powers agreement between the City of Patterson, California (the “City”) and the former Redevelopment Agency of the City. The primary activity of the Authority is issuing special tax bonds on behalf of the West Patterson Financing Authority Community Facilities District No. 2001-1 (Public Improvements). The proceeds of the special tax bonds are used to finance the costs of certain engineering, design, construction and other expenses related to public infrastructure improvements.
On October 18, 2005, pursuant to Resolution No. 2005-04 of the Board of Directors of the Authority founded its Community Facilities District No. 2005-1 (West Patterson Business Park) and authorized special tax levies therein.
On June 2, 2015 pursuant to Resolution No.2015-03 of the Board of Directors of the Authority founded its Community Facilities District No. 2015-1 (Arambel-KND) and authorized special tax levies therein.
On October 16, 2018 pursuant to Resolution No. 2018-04 of the Board of Directors of the Authority founded its Community Facilities District No. 2018-1 (Villages of Patterson) and authorized special tax levies therein.
The financial activities of the Authority are included in the City’s custodial funds.
B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus
Fund Accounting
The accounts of the Authority are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures or expenses as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
Government–Wide Financial Statements
The Authority’s government-wide financial statements include a statement of net position and a statement of activities. These statements present summaries of governmental activities for the Authority.
These financial statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the Authority’s assets and liabilities, including capital assets, as well as infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying statement of net position. The statement of activities presents changes in net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Certain eliminations have been made in regards to interfund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances in the statement of net position have been eliminated.

26 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus (Continued) Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental fund financial statements include a balance sheet and a statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for all major governmental funds. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in net position as presented in these statements to the net position presented in the government-wide financial statements. The Authority has presented all of its funds as major funds.
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the balance sheet. The statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances present increases (revenue and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balances.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period.
The primary revenue sources, which have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the Authority is assessments and interest income. Certain indirect costs are included in program expenses reported for individual functions and activities. Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred.
The reconciliation of the fund financial statements to the government-wide financial statements is provided to explain the differences.
Governmental funds of the Authority are outlined below:
CFD 2001-1 Special Tax Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the 2013 Special Tax Bonds.
CFD 2005-1 Special Tax Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the Community Facilities District 2005-1 (West Patterson Business Park) Special Tax Bonds.
CFD 2015-1 Special Tax Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the Community Facilities District 2015-1 (Arambel-KND) Special Tax Bonds.
CFD 2018-1 Special Tax Bonds – This debt service fund is used to account for the debt service payments, investment income, and projects related to the Community Facilities District 2018-1 (Villages of Patterson) Special Tax Bonds.
C. Cash and Investments
The Authority’s cash and investments considered to be cash equivalents, consist of cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with original maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Cash and cash equivalents are combined with investments and reported as Cash and Investments. The Authority's cash and investments are held by the City in its pooled cash and investments, except for funds required to be held by fiscal agents under the provisions of bond indentures.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2024
27 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) C. Cash and Investments (Continued)
Interest income earned on pooled cash and investments is allocated on an accounting period basis to the various funds based on the period-end cash and investment balances. Interest income from cash and investments with fiscal agents is credited directly to the related fund.
D. Restricted Cash and Investments
Certain restricted cash and investments are held by a fiscal agent for the redemption of bonded debt and for acquisition and construction of capital projects.
E. Receivables
Receivables include such items as assessments, interest, notes, and miscellaneous accounts receivable. No allowance for doubtful accounts has been established, as the Authority believes all amounts are considered collectible in the normal course of business.
F. Long-Term Debt
In the government-wide financial statements long-term liabilities and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities Statement of Net Position. Initial issue bond premiums and discounts, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. The difference between the reacquisition price of refunding bonds and the net carrying amount of refunded debt (deferred amount on refunding) is amortized over the shorter of the lives of the refunding debt or remaining life of the refunded debt.
Bond issuance costs except for insurance, are expenses in the period incurred. Amortization of bond premiums or discounts, issuance costs, and deferred amounts on refunding is included in interest expense.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums, discounts, and issuance costs during the period issued. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received are reported as other financing sources, while discounts are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.
G. Special Tax
The Community Facilities Districts established by the Authority are authorized to levy special taxes annually on real property located within the Community Facilities Districts. The County of Stanislaus levies, bills, and collects the special property taxes for the Authority. The County of Stanislaus remits Community Facilities District special taxes collected on the County tax roll to the Authority in three installments during the months of December, April, and July.
Tax collections of special taxes on the County tax roll are the responsibility of the County Tax Collector. Taxes and assessments on secured and utility rolls which constitute a lien against the property, are levied and payable in two installments; the first is due November 1 of the fiscal year and is delinquent if not paid by December 10; and the second is due on March 1 of the fiscal year and is delinquent if not paid by April 10. Significant penalties are imposed under State law for late payment.
Tax levy dates are attached annually on January 1 preceding the fiscal year for which the taxes are levied. The fiscal year begins July 1 and ends June 30 of the following year. Taxes are levied on real property, as it exists at that time. Liens against real estate are not relieved by subsequent renewal or change in ownership.

28 Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued) G. Special Tax (Continued)
In order to collect delinquent special tax levies, the Authority may conduct foreclosure actions against the property on which the special taxes are levied. In some cases, the Authority will "strip" the delinquent special tax amount from the County ad valorem tax roll, and proceed to enforce the payment of the special taxes itself through collection efforts including possible judicial foreclosure.
H. Net Position
For government-wide financial statements, net position is categorized as follows:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – This component of net position consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of debt that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. There is no net investment in capital assets as of June 30, 2024.
Restricted – This component of net position consists of restricted assets reduced by liabilities and deferred inflows of resources related to those assets.
Unrestricted – This component of net position is the amount of the assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources that are not included in the determination of net investment in capital assets or the restricted component of net position.
When expenses are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available, the Authority’s policy is to apply restricted net position first.
I. Fund Balances
The Authority reports the fund balances for governmental funds in specific classifications (nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned), which creates a hierarchy primarily based on the extent to which the Authority is bound to the constraints on the specific purpose for which funds can be spent. The Authority only receive restricted revenues; therefore, any remaining fund balances are restricted by nature of the revenue received.
J. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosure. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 2 – Cash and Investments
The following is a summary of pooled cash and investments and restricted cash and investments at June 30, 2024:

A. Cash Deposits
The carrying amounts of the Authority’s pooled cash and investment with the City was $8,943,171 at June 30, 2024. The Authority pools its cash and investments of all funds with the City to facilitate the management of cash and achieve the goal of obtaining the highest yield with the greatest safety and least risk. The pool is managed by the City Treasurer for investing, except for certain restricted funds and investments held in trust, which are held and invested by outside custodians through contractual agreements. These restricted funds include cash with fiscal agents. The total amount of which was collateralized or insured with securities held by the pledging financial institutions in the City’s name is discussed below.
Investments held in the City of Patterson's cash and investments pool are available on demand. Information regarding the City's cash and investment pools is described in the City's Annual Comprehensive Financial Report.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to secure the City’s cash deposits by pledging securities as collateral. This Code states that collateral pledged in this manner shall have the effect of perfecting a security interest in such collateral superior to those of a general creditor. Thus, collateral for cash deposits is considered to be held in the City's name.
The market value of pledged securities must equal at least 110% of the City's cash deposits. California law also allows institutions to secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the City’s total cash deposits. The City may waive collateral requirements for cash deposits; however, the City has not waived the collateralization requirements.

C. Risk Disclosures
Disclosures Relating to Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is 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. One of the ways that the Authority's interest rate risk is mitigated 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.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the Authority's investments to market rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the Authority's investments by maturity as of June 30, 2024:

Investments:
Money market mutual funds 25,072,562 $ 25,072,562 $
Total investments $ 25,072,562 25,072,562 $
Disclosures Relating to Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of 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. Presented below is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the California Government Code or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of the fiscal year for each investment type.

Disclosures Relating to Concentration of Credit Risk
The Authority complies with the limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer as stipulated by the California Government Code.

The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g. brokerdealer) 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. None of the Authority’s investments was subject to custodial credit risk.

41 Budgetary Information
The Authority maintains budgetary controls in order to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The Authority maintains an encumbrance accounting system to provide management with information regarding obligations against appropriations. Budgetary compliance is based on expenditures during the period (U.S. GAAP), rather than expenditures and encumbrances (non-GAAP).
Because appropriations lapse at June 30, encumbrances outstanding at June 30, 2024 are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. Appropriations for fiscal year 2024 will provide authority to complete those transactions.
The Authority is required by its municipal code to adopt an annual budget on or before June 30 for the ensuing fiscal year. From the effective date of the budget, the amounts become the "annual appropriated budget".
The following procedures are performed by the Authority in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:
1. The Finance Director submits a preliminary budget by June 30 of each year to Board of Directors. This allows the Authority to continue normal operations until the final budget is adopted in July. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayers' comments.
3. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department, and division. The government department heads may make transfers of appropriation within a department. Transfers of appropriations between departments requires approval of the City Manager. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is the fund level.
4. The budget is legally adopted through the passage of a council resolution.
5. The Board of Directors may amend the budget by resolution during the fiscal year. The City Manager may transfer appropriations from one program, activity, or object to another within the same fund. All appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year to the extent they have not been expended. Capital project funds are based on a project time frame, rather than a fiscal year "operating" time frame reappropriating unused appropriations from year to year until project completion.
6. A budget review is presented to the City Council by the City Manager mid-year and approved additions or changes are legally adopted through Council resolution.
7. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the funds.
8. Budgets for the funds are adopted on a basis consistent with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
