BACKGROUND
The City’s independent auditor, Mann-Urrutia-Nelson CPAs & Associates, LLP (MUN), has completed the audit of the City’s financial statements and provided auditor’s reports for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The Finance Department is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP). The Audit Committee, consisting of Vice Mayor Betsy Andersen and Councilmember Conna McCarthy, met with the audit partner and City staff on March 13, 2023 to discuss the auditor’s financial report and recommendations regarding internal control.
The Annual Financial Statements and Independent Auditor’s Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2022 contains a number of sections. These include the Independent Auditor’s Report, Management’s Discussion and Analysis, individual financial statements, Notes to the Basic Financial Statements, and the Required Supplemental Information. The audit partner from MUN will be available at the March 20, 2023 City Council meeting to answer any questions.
DISCUSSION
The audit addresses the City’s general financial statements and the Measure B, Measure BB, and Measure F sales tax special revenue funds. The audits found no exception to conformance with generally accepted accounting principles and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in the Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General.
MUN opined that the general purpose financial statements present fairly, in all material ways, the City’s financial position of the government activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information as of June 30, 2022. The audited financial statements include the statement of net position, statement of activities and changes in net position, balance sheets, statements of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances, and statements of cash flows.
In summary, the City received a clean audit opinion, with no material weaknesses, no significant deficiencies, nor any compliance exceptions.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the City Council of
the City of Piedmont
Piedmont, California
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Piedmont as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’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, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Piedmont, as of June 30, 2022, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for 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 Auditor’s 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.
Change in Accounting Principle
As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, in 2022, the City adopted new accounting guidance, GASB Statement No. 87, Leases. 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 City'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.

Attachment A Agenda Report Page 7
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based in the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards 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 City'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 City'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 management’s discussion and analysis, the budgetary comparison information for the General Fund and major special revenue funds, pension related schedules and OPEB related schedules as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, 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.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The accompanying combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and budgetary comparison schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate 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 basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the budgetary comparison schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Attachment A Agenda Report Page 8
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 13, 2023, on our consideration of the City’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 City'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 City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
The Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) provides an overview of the City of Piedmont’s activities and financial performance for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. To obtain a complete picture of the City’s financial condition, this narrative overview and analysis should be read in conjunction with the accompanying Basic Financial Statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Government-wide
Net position is defined as the excess of assets and deferred outflows of resources over liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. As of June 30, 2022, the City's government-wide net position amounted to a positive balance of $53,507,393. This represents an increase of $7,551,073 from the June 30, 2021 balance of $45,956,320. Governmental activities of $42,546,922 accounts for 80% of total net position. Business-type activities of $10,960,471 accounts for 20% of total net position. Deferred Outflows of Resources represent a consumption of net position or fund balance that applies to a future period. Of the $10,778,291 in Deferred Outflows of Resources, $4,176,329 includes contribution payments made to CalPERS during fiscal year 2021-22, as well as changes in the net pension liability totaling $4,281,547 and changes in the net pension asset - police & fire totaling $791,113. As allowed by GASB No. 68, the CalPERS measurement date is June 30, 2021 and contributions subsequent to the measurement date are reflected as a deferred outflow. The remaining $1,529,302 in Deferred Outflows of Resources relates to changes in the Net OPEB liability.
Deferred Inflows of Resources represent an acquisition of net position or fund balance that applies to a future period and amounts to $19,529,532. The deferred Inflows include deferrals due to changes in the net pension liability and net OPEB liability and deferrals related to leases. Notes 3, 8, 9 and 10 discuss the impacts of these changes to net position.
Net position increased by $7,551,073 due to the following factors:
Net investment in capital assets increased $1,722,658 to $43,966,299 due to the following:
Governmental activities increased by $1,329,841 due primarily to the capital improvement of streets and sidewalks, which were greater than annual depreciation. Business-type activities increased $392,817 due primarily to additions to the aquatics construction in progress and the purchase of sewer related heavy equipment, offset by depreciation. Unrestricted net position increased by $5,274,977 to $2,007,606 due to the following:
Total revenues from governmental activities increased $1,780,000 to $38,221,000 primarily due to an increase in Charges for Services primarily due to the increase in recreational programs as COVID-19 health restrictions waned and increased property tax receipts. Decrease in pension liabilities.
Offset by:
Increased personnel related expenses primarily due to salary, wage, and benefit increases per collective bargaining agreements.
As of June 30, 2022, capital assets, net of depreciation, amount to $51,066,877 and are reported in the Statement of Net Position.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
Fund level
Governmental fund balances increased $2,387,811 to $29,901,008. Of this amount, the unassigned fund balance was $7,363,489, a decrease of $78,807 from the prior year. Enterprise fund net position decreased $462,730 to $10,960,471. Of this amount, net investment in capital assets totaled $11,846,201, an increase of $392,817 from the prior year.
Fiduciary funds
The trust funds net position decreased $4,244,804 to $25,597,392. The trust funds represent the police and fire pension plan and OPEB for $14,766,141 and $10,831,251, respectively.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains required supplementary information and other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include administration, public works, public safety, and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include sewer and aquatics. The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 15 - 16 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City of Piedmont can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.

CITY OF PIEDMONT
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains sixteen individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental funds balance sheet and in the governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund, which is considered a major fund. The City also reports Equipment Replacement and Facilities Maintenance funds as major funds. Data for these funds are also presented separately. Data from the other thirteen governmental funds are combined and aggregated on the above mentioned statements. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund. A budgetary comparison schedule has been provided for the general fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 17 - 20 of the report.
Proprietary funds
The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds, enterprise funds and internal service funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City of Piedmont uses an enterprise fund to account for its sewer and aquatic activity. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City of Piedmont’s various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for its insurance activity. The Sewer and Aquatic Funds are included within the business-type activities and Internal Service Funds have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide information on the City’s business-type activities, the Sewer and Aquatic Enterprise Funds. The City’s two internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 21 - 24 of this report.
Fiduciary funds
Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City of Piedmont’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
The basic fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 25 - 26 of this report.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 27 - 67 of this report.

Required Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information consisting of budgetary comparison schedules for the General Fund, pension required schedules, and OPEB required schedules. Required supplementary information can be found on pages 68 - 76 of this report.
Other information
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds and internal service funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 79 - 106 of this report.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
Net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of the government's financial position. In the case of the City of Piedmont, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $53,507,393 at the close of the most recent year.
GASB No. 68 has a material impact on the City’s financial statements, since it sets standards for measuring and recognizing assets, liabilities, and impact to net position, as well as, expands the note disclosures regarding the City’s pension systems. GASB No. 68 requires the City to include pension assets of the Police & Fire Pension Trust and the liabilities of the City’s CalPERS pension in the financial statements. The impact is shown in the negative unrestricted net position in the table below.
GASB No. 75 has a material impact on the City's financial statements, since it sets standards for measuring and recognizing assets, liabilities, and impact to net position, as well as, expands the note disclosures regarding the City's OPEB plan. GASB No. 75 requires the City to include the liabilities of the City's OPEB plan in the financial statements.
The impact is shown in the negative unrestricted net position in the table below.
The largest portion of the City’s net position reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, equipment and infrastructure); less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City of Piedmont uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

Business-type Activities. Business-type activities decreased the City of Piedmont's net position due to debt service expenditures related to the issuance of GO bonds for the construction of the new community pool, unrealized investment losses, and the accelerated depreciation of the old community pool.
Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental funds.
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $29,901,008, an increase of $2,387,811 compared with the prior year. A total of $7,363,489, approximately 25%, constitutes unassigned General Fund balance.
General Fund
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance and unassigned fund balance of the General Fund were $11,476,529 and $7,363,489, respectively. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both total fund balance and unassigned fund balance to total fund expenditures. Total fund balance and unassigned fund balance are 37% and 24% of total General Fund expenditures, respectively. During the current fiscal year, the fund balance of the City's general fund increased by $272,047.
General Fund revenues totaled $34,964,871, an increase of $1,032,524 from the prior year. The primary reasons for this change are:
Service charge revenue increased $1,202,241 from the prior year primarily due to an increase in recreational programming as COVID-19 health restrictions waned and higher planning and building charges as construction/remodeling activity increased.
Property tax revenues increased $781,050 to $16,223,543 due to the standard maximum 2% annual assessment increase and supplemental receipts for the increase in the assessed annual valuation of homes sold.
Offset by:
Real Property Transfer Tax revenue decreased by $305,445 as the real estate market weakened after a record year of home sales.
Due to the volatile nature of the real estate market, this category is budgeted conservatively each year. The table below shows the number of homes sold and the average sales price for the last ten fiscal years:
Fiscal Year # Sold Average Sales Price Real Property Transfer Tax 2012-13 155 $1,582,243 $3,186,001

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
General fund expenditures totaled $30,777,605, an increase of $4,038,002 from the prior year. The increase is due primarily to the following:
Administration expenses decreased $93,892 primarily due to:
$117,000 decrease in costs related to collective bargaining as all labor contracts were finalized in fiscal year 2020-2021.
$50,000 decrease in recruiting costs as all top level positions were filled in the prior year. As fiscal year 221-22 was not an election year, there was a $45,000 decrease in election related expenses.
Offset by:
$95,000 increase in legal and consulting expenses primarily related to human resource policy issues.
Public Works expenses increased $1,314,432 primarily due to:
Consulting expenses increased approximately $530,000 to assist with the Housing Element and various planning and building department projects.
$478,000 increase in personnel related expenses due to increases in salary and pension related costs.
The City incurred an additional $260,000 in third party costs to assist in working through a large building permit backlog caused by increased volume.
Police expenses increased $784,508 primarily due to:
$423,000 increase in personnel related expenses due to salary increases and pension related costs. Contract services costs increased $206,000 as both the automated license plate readers and body camera programs were converted to long-term maintenance contracts. Previously, the units were replaced when needed and paid from the equipment replacement fund. Fire expenses increased $823,754 primarily due to higher personnel related costs, including salary, overtime, benefits, and pension costs. In addition, operating costs increased due to training and contract services.
Recreation expenses increased $891,317 as recreation programs and facility rentals returned to a normal pre-COVID-19 state. This increase was more than offset by the revenue generated from the increased activity.
Non-Departmental expenses increased $317,883 primarily due to:
$242,000 increase in Workers' Compensation and General Liability premiums and claim payments. $100,000 of ARPA receipts were used to aid the Piedmont Unified School District in their COVID-19 program.
$96,000 increase in retiree medical insurance premiums due to an increase in benefits and the number of retiree's.
Offset by:
$117,000 decline in Unemployment Insurance payments as previously furloughed recreation employees returned to work.
Equipment Replacement Fund
The Equipment Replacement Fund is used to replace the capital assets of the City. The fund balance of the Equipment Replacement Fund increased $994,492 to $4,091,592. The City Council authorized transfers from the General Fund and Projects and Services Fund to the Equipment Replacement Fund for $1,361,390 to fund necessary future capital needs.
Purchases during the fiscal year totaled $338,711. Major items include the implementation and upgrading of the City's various operating systems, including an upgraded system which tracks permitting activity, business licenses, and real estate taxes; a GIS system; and a safety timekeeping system. In addition, two safety vehicles were purchased. 11 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 17

Facilities Maintenance Fund
The Facilities Maintenance Fund is used to maintain the City's facilities, primarily its buildings and parks. The fund balance of the Facilities Maintenance Fund increased $982,876 to $10,322,584. The City Council authorized transfers from the General Fund, Projects and Services Fund and Schoolmates Program Fund to Facilities Maintenance Fund for $2,840,854 to fund necessary future capital.
The Facilities Maintenance Fund expenditures totaled $1,749,267 and included approximately $937,000 for the repair and/or replacement of sidewalks, $124,000 to resurface tennis courts, and the remainder for various repairs, maintenance and improvements to the City's parks and municipal buildings, primarily the Community Hall and City Hall.
Proprietary Funds
The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Three funds comprise the City’s proprietary funds: the Sewer Enterprise Fund, Aquatics Enterprise Fund, and the Internal Service Fund.
Sewer Fund
The Sewer Fund is used to account for the sanitary sewer and storm water systems of the City. The net position of the Sewer Fund increased $920,078 to $12,141,692. This total increase offsets the net capital improvements of the sewer system which increased $61,676 to $17,355,404. The unrestricted net position of the Sewer Fund increased $165,685 to $295,491.
The City Council approved loans to the Sewer Fund for $800,000 from the Equipment Replacement Fund and the Facilities Maintenance Fund. The funds are to assist in the completion of rehabilitating the sewer system to cover costs related to design documents so that they can be submitted to apply for a State Water Resources Control Board loan to reimburse for design and construction costs.
Aquatics Fund
The Aquatics Fund is used to account for the operations of the Piedmont Community Pool. The net position of the Aquatics Fund decreased $1,382,808 to $(1,181,221). The pool closed on March 16, 2020 due to COVID-19 County health orders and remains closed to date.
Internal Service Fund
The Internal Service Funds' net position amounted to $1,010,586, which did not change from the prior year balance.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
The General Fund's original budget of $30,390,242 increased $885,000 to the final amended budget of $31,275,242.
The additional appropriations consisted primarily of public safety personnel costs and planning and building consulting services.
The General Fund's actual expenditures of $30,777,605 was less than the final amended budget of $31,275,242.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET
General Fund
Approximately 70 percent of the City’s general revenue sources are property related. The largest portion is property tax revenue, which accounts for approximately 66% of property related revenue. This revenue source has historically been relatively stable, even during periods of economic recession. The average annual growth rate of property tax revenue over the past twenty years is 5.2%. There has not been a year of negative growth over this time frame. In FY 2022-23 property tax revenue is projected to increase 7.0% over FY 2021-22 levels based on the estimated assessed valuations provided by Alameda County.
One of the critical sources of General Fund revenue is the voter approved parcel tax which represents approximately 7% of the General Fund revenues and provides discretionary funding to maintain essential services. In March 2020, Piedmont voters approved a four-year extension of the parcel tax at the current level, plus a maximum annual increase limited to the lower of the Consumer Price Index or 4%. The tax will be imposed from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2025.
13 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 19
CITY OF PIEDMONT
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
Another critical source of General Fund revenue is the real property transfer tax, which is realized when homes are sold. The City's real estate market has been remarkably healthy throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The past two years have generated record Transfer Tax receipts, $6.3 million in FY 2020-21 and $6.0 million in FY 2021-22. These receipts represented approximately 17% of General Fund revenues in each of the years. In comparison, the next highest level of receipts was $4.0 million in FY 2013-14. There is no guarantee this favorable trend will continue. Real property transfer tax is an area the City monitors closely as tax receipts will fluctuate since they are dependent on the strength of the real estate market in Piedmont. The economy is now facing serious headwinds with rising inflation and interest rates. This has caused an increase in mortgage rates which can adversely affect the real estate market. This may have a detrimental impact on our transfer tax receipts. Given this, it is prudent to continue treating this revenue source in a conservative manner. We have budgeted $3.4 million for FY 2022-23, which is a 28% decline from the average of the past 5 years.
The City’s salary and benefit costs represent approximately 65% of the General Fund. Four-year employee agreements have been finalized for all bargaining units and unrepresented employees for the period July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2025. The agreements provide for salary increases, resets employee contributions for medical benefits, and capped the percentage amount the employees contribute to the CalPERS pension plan. This was necessary to remain competitive in the local labor market and will not adversely affect the City’s financial position.
Pension costs and retiree medical costs continue to rise at a faster pace than revenue despite the various measures taken beginning in 2013 to contain these costs, including elimination of employer paid member pension contributions, employee cost sharing of pension costs, and the restructuring of postretirement health insurance benefits. We have budgeted pension and retiree medical expenses at $4.9 million compared to $4.3 million actual last year, an increase of $0.6 million or 14%.
In May 2018, the City established a Pension Rate Stabilization Fund with an initial contribution of $2.0 million. We partnered with the Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS) to establish a Section 115 Trust. The trust will allow us to smooth the effect of rising pension costs which are expected to more than double over the next ten years. Through the deposit of funds into the Section 115 Trust Program, the City could expect to earn a rate of return greater than what would be attained through the City’s investment with the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF).
An additional $750,000 was transferred into the trust in November 2018 and $1.0 million in November 2021. These additional contributions were in response to the lower than expected investment results at CalPERS in FY 2019-20 and the effect of the changes in their amortization policy. Amortization periods for the Unfunded Accrued Liability have been shortened from 30 years to 20 years, which lowers our overall liability, but increases annual payments. The City closely monitors its pension liability to assure adequate funding is available to meet these rising costs.
As a general practice, in years when revenues exceed budget estimates, the City Council prudently treats the surplus as "onetime" revenue and has directed the funds to address facility maintenance, equipment replacement, and underfunded liabilities. This practice is and will continue to be extremely important to the long-term health of the City, especially when considering an expanded definition of "facilities maintenance" to include such critical civic infrastructure as our streets, sidewalks, storm drains and parks. In FY 2021-22, revenues in excess of the budgeted amount were transferred to the Facilities Maintenance and Equipment Replacement Funds.
Sewer Fund
On August 4, 2014, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a negotiated Consent Decree (CD). The CD is intended to provide an expanded period of time (21 years) to allow the City to rehabilitate the sewer systems in order to substantially reduce the amount of infiltration and inflow (I&I) in the EBMUD system. The City has divided the project into seven phases. The City has completed Phases I through V. The State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB) has reimbursed the City for the majority of the costs incurred for all phases by providing funding through low interest rate loans. The City expects to begin design work on Phase VI during FY 2022-23.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Piedmont is a residential community located in the East Bay Hills, approximately ten miles east of San Francisco, California. The City was incorporated as a municipal corporation in 1907; population at June 30, 2022 was approximately 11,107.
The City operates under the Council-Administrator form of government, with five elected Council members served by a full-time City Administrator and staff. At June 30, 2022, the City's staff was comprised of 92 full-time employees who were responsible for the following City-provided services:
Public Safety - The City employs 19 sworn and 9 non-sworn police personnel to provide round-the-clock police services from a central station, and 25 fire personnel to provide round-the-clock fire services from a central station.
Streets and Roads - The City contracts the construction and maintenance of its streets, curbs, gutters, and related public property.
Recreation, Public Works, Administration and other services are provided by a total of 40 full-time and 5 part-time employees.
In addition, the City employs approximately 316 seasonal recreational personnel.
The accounting policies of the City of Piedmont conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governments. Following is a summary of the more significant policies.
A. The Reporting Entity
The accompanying basic financial statements present the financial activities of the City, which has no component units.
B. Basis of Presentation
The City's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America. These standards require that the financial statements described below be presented.
Government-wide Financial Statements:
The Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities display information about the reporting government as a whole. They include the activities of the overall City government except for fiduciary activities. Eliminations have been made to minimize the double counting of internal service activities. The City's net position is reported in three parts - net investment in capital assets; restricted net position; and unrestricted net position. The City first utilizes restricted resources to finance qualifying activities. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange revenues. Business-type activities are financed in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or services.
The Statement of Activities presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function of the City's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a program or function and, therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include (a) charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational needs of a particular program and (c) fees, grants and contributions that are restricted to financing the acquisition or construction of capital assets. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues.

CITY OF PIEDMONT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Fund Financial Statements:
The fund financial statements provide information about the City's funds, including fiduciary funds. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, net position, revenues and expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories with each major fund displayed in a separate column. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria:
a. Total assets and deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or type; and b. Total assets and deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental fund or enterprise fund are at least 5 percent of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined.
All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds in a single column, regardless of their fund type.
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:

General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City and is always classified as a major fund. It is used to account for all activities except those legally or administratively required to be accounted for in other funds.
Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditures for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects.
Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditures for principal and interest.
Capital Project Funds - Capital Project Funds are used to account for financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditures for capital outlays, including the acquisition or construction of capital facilities and other capital assets.
Proprietary Funds
Enterprise Funds - Enterprise funds are used to account for business-like activities provided to the general public.
These activities are financed primarily by user charges and the measurement of financial activity focuses on net income measurement similar to the private sector.
Internal Service Funds - Internal service funds are used to account for, and finance, services and commodities furnished by a designated department of a governmental unit to other departments of the same governmental unit.
The City uses internal service funds to account for insurance activities.
Fiduciary Funds (not included in government-wide statements) Pension (and Other Employee Benefit) Trust Funds - Pension (and Other Employee Benefit) Trust Funds are used to report resources that are required to be held in trust for the members and beneficiaries of defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution plans, other postemployment benefit plans, and other employee benefit plans. 28 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 34

C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements regardless of the measurement focus applied.
Measurement Focus
On the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, both governmental and proprietary activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined in item "b" below.
In the fund financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement focus or the "economic resources" measurement focus is used as appropriate:
a. All governmental funds are accounted for using a "current financial resources" measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and deferred outflows of resources, and current liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, generally are included on their balance sheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the period. 29 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 35
CITY OF PIEDMONT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) b. All proprietary funds utilize an "economic resources" measurement focus. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net position (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and deferred outflows of resources, and all liabilities and deferred inflows of resources (whether current or noncurrent) associated with the operation of these funds are reported.
Proprietary fund equity is classified as net position.
c. Fiduciary funds use the "economic resources" measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting.
Basis of Accounting
In the government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, both governmental and proprietary activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset is used.
Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when "measurable and available." Measurable means knowing or being able to reasonably estimate the amount. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay current liabilities. The City defines available to be within 60 days of year-end.
Expenditures (including capital outlay) are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for general obligation bond principal and interest which are reported when due. Governmental capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. Proceeds from governmental long-term liabilities and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual include taxes, intergovernmental revenues, interest and charges for services.
Certain indirect costs are included in program expenses reported for individual functions and activities.
Grant revenues are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements are met. Under the terms of grant agreements, the City may fund certain programs with a combination of cost-reimbursement grants, categorical block grants, and general revenues. Thus, both restricted and unrestricted net position are available to finance program expenditures. The City's policy is to first apply restricted grant resources to such programs, followed by general revenues if necessary.
All proprietary funds utilize the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset is used.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal operations. The principal operating revenues of the enterprise and internal service funds are charges for services. Operating expenses for proprietary funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D. Property Taxes
The County of Alameda levies, bills, and collects property taxes and special assessments for the City as follows:
Secured Unsecured
Valuation Dates March 1 March 1
Lien/levy Dates January 1 January 1
Due Dates 50% on November 1 and February 1 August 31
Delinquent as of December 10 and April 10 August 31
30 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 36
CITY OF PIEDMONT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) The term "unsecured" refers to taxes on personal property other than real estate, land, and buildings. These taxes are secured by liens on the property being taxed. Property tax revenue is recognized in accordance with applicable GASB pronouncements; that is, in the fiscal year for which the taxes have been levied providing they become available.
Available means due, or past due and receivable within the current period and collected within the current period or expected to be collected soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities in the current period. The County remits the entire amount of the tax levy to the City (net of County administrative fees), and handles all delinquencies, retaining any interest and penalties. The County remits a property tax clean-up payment for the current period each September following the close of the fiscal year. The City makes an exception to the 60-day recognition period to recognize this revenue in the current period.
E. Cash and Investments
The City pools the cash of all funds, except for monies deposited with fiscal agents in accordance with related bond indentures and monies held in the police and fire pension trust, and OPEB trust. The cash and investments balance in each fund represents that fund's equity share of the City's cash and investment pool. As the City places no restrictions on the deposit or withdrawal of a particular fund's equity in the pool, the pool operates like a demand deposit account for the participating funds.
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers cash and cash equivalents as short-term highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Because the only investments held by the proprietary funds are the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), which meets the definition of a cash equivalent, and investments in Multi-Bank Securities, the entire pooled balance is reported as cash and investments.
F. Accounts and Interest Receivables
In the government-wide statements, receivables consist of all revenues earned at year-end and not yet received.
Receivables are recorded in the financial statements net of any allowance for doubtful accounts, if applicable, and estimated refunds due. Major receivable balances for the governmental activities include sales and use taxes, franchise taxes, grants, fines, interest, and other fees. Federal and state grants are considered receivable and accrued as revenue when reimbursable costs are incurred.
In the fund financial statements, material receivables in governmental funds include revenue accruals such as sales tax, franchise tax, and grants and other similar intergovernmental revenues since they are usually both measurable and available. Nonexchange transactions collectible but not available are recorded as deferred inflows of resources in the fund financial statements in accordance with modified accrual, but are not deferred in the government-wide financial statements in accordance with the accrual basis. Interest and investment earnings are recorded when earned only if paid within 60 days since they would be considered both measurable and available. Long-term loans in governmental funds are treated as expenditures in the year advanced and as revenues in the year repayment is measurable and available. Loans receivable are recorded in the fund financial statements, but are recorded as deferred inflows of resources to indicate they do not represent current financial resources. Proprietary fund material receivables consist of all revenues earned at year-end and not yet received. Service charges and interest earnings compose the majority of proprietary fund receivables.
G. Prepaid Expenses
Payments for services that will benefit periods beyond June 30, 2022 are recorded as prepaid costs in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
H. Capital Assets
The accounting treatment of property, plant and equipment depends on whether the assets are used in governmental fund operations or proprietary fund operations and whether they are reported in the government-wide or fund financial statements.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) Government-wide Financial Statements
In the government-wide financial statements, capital assets with a cost of $5,000 or more are capitalized. All capital assets are valued at historical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual is unavailable, except for donated capital assets which are recorded at their acquisition value at the date of donation. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend the asset lives are not capitalized.
Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the Statement of Activities, with accumulated depreciation reflected in the Statement of Net Position. Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The range of estimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows:
Building and improvements 60 years
Vehicles 4 - 20 years
Furniture, fixtures, and equipment 7 - 25 years
Pavement system 28 years
Sidewalk, curb, and gutters 40 years
Traffic signals 25 years
Street lights 25 years
Bridges 75 years
Park facilities system 25 - 40 years
Sewer and storm drains 50 years
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Upon sale or retirement of capital assets, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations.
Fund Financial Statements
In the fund financial statements, capital assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. Capital assets used in proprietary fund operations are accounted for the same as in the government-wide financial statements.
I. Compensated Absences
A liability is calculated for all the costs of compensated absences based upon benefits earned by employees in the current period for which there is a probability of payment at termination. The salary and related payroll costs are those in effect at June 30, 2022. Compensated absences include vacation pay and compensated time off. The City's liability for compensated absences is recorded at the City-wide level in the Statement of Net Position for governmental activities or in the proprietary funds as appropriate.
J. Long-Term Liabilities
In the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term liabilities, and other long term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, businesstype activities, or proprietary fund type 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 expensed in the period incurred. Amortization of bond premiums or discounts, insurance costs, and deferred amounts on refunding are 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. 32 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 38

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) K. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City’s California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) plan (the Plan) and additions to/deductions from the Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Investments are reported at fair value.
L. Section 115 Trust
In fiscal year 2017-18, the City Council approved the creation of a Section 115 Trust Agreement with U.S. Bank National Association, Trustee, and Public Agency Retirement Services (PARS), Trust Administrator. The Section 115 Trust was established as a means to set aside monies to fund the City's pension obligations. Contributions to the Section 115 trust are irrevocable, the assets are dedicated to providing benefits to plan members, and the assets are protected from creditors of the City. The purpose of the creation of the Section 115 Trust was to address the City's pension obligations by accumulating assets to reduce the net pension liability. However, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the assets in the Section 115 Trust are not considered to have present service capacity as plan assets and are therefore considered restricted assets of the City rather than plan assets. Accordingly, the Section 115 Trust's assets are recorded as restricted for pension benefits in the City's General Fund rather than assets of the pension plan during the measurement of the net pension liability. The assets held in trust will be considered pension plan assets at the time they are transferred out of the Trust into the pension plan.
M. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the City's plan (OPEB Plan) and additions to/deductions from the OPEB Plan's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Investments are reported at fair value.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the reported results must pertain to liability and asset information within certain defined timeframes. For this report, the following timeframes are used:
Valuation Date June 30, 2021
Measurement Date June 30, 2022
Measurement Period July 1, 2021 - June 30, 2022
N. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position or balance sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. Deferred outflows of resources recorded for the City relate to the City's defined benefit pension plan, the police and fire pension plan, and the OPEB plan. See Notes 8, 9, and 10.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position or balance sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. Deferred inflows of resources recorded for the City relate to the City's defined benefit pension plan and OPEB plan and leases. See Notes 8 and 10.

JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) O. Interfund Transactions
Interfund transactions are reflected as either loans, services provided, reimbursements, or transfers. Loans are reported as receivables and payables as appropriate, are subject to elimination upon consolidation and are referred to as either “due to/from other funds” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and the business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal balances”. Advances between funds, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by nonspendable fund balance in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not available financial resources.
Services provided, deemed to be at market or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses.
Reimbursements are when one fund incurs a cost, charges the appropriate benefiting fund, and reduces its related cost as a reimbursement. All other interfund transactions are treated as transfers. Transfers between governmental or proprietary funds are netted as part of the reconciliation to the government-wide presentation.
P. Equity Classifications
Government-wide Financial Statements
Net position is the excess of all the City's assets and deferred outflows of resources over all its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, regardless of fund. Net position is divided into three categories. These categories apply only to net position, which is determined at the government-wide level, and are described below:
a. Net investment in capital assets - Consists of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. b. Restricted net position - Consists of net position with constraints placed on the use either by (1) external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
c. Unrestricted net position - All other net position that does not meet the definition of "restricted" or "net investment in capital assets."
Fund Financial Statements
The governmental fund financial statements present fund balances based on classifications that comprise a hierarchy that is based primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts in the respective governmental funds can be spent. The classifications used in the governmental fund financial statements are as follows:
a. Nonspendable - Amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (1) not in spendable form or (2) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
b. Restricted - Amounts that are restricted for specific purposes when constraints placed on the use of resources are either (1) externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, laws, or regulations of other governments; or (2) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. c. Committed - Amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal action of the government's highest level of decision-making authority. d. Assigned - Amounts that are constrained by the City Council's intent to be used for specific purposes through a resolution, but are neither restricted or committed. The City Council assigns fund balances for specific purposes by resolution adopting the annual budget for the upcoming fiscal year, or by an amending budget resolution during the fiscal year.

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) e. Unassigned - Amounts representing the residual classification for the general fund or any other fund with a negative fund balance.
Further detail about the City's fund balance classification is described in Note 11.
Q. Leases
Lessor
The City is a lessor for several leases of property and buildings. The City recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources in the financial statements.
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during the lease term. Subsequently, the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflow of resources is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflow of resources is recognized as revenue over the lease term.
Key estimates and judgments include how the City determines (1) the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease receipts to present value, (2) lease terms, and (3) lease receipts. The City uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases. The lease term includes the noncancellable period of the lease. Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease receivable is composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its leases, and will remeasure the lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
R. General Budget Policies
The City operates under the general laws of the State of California and annually adopts a budget for its governmental and proprietary funds to be effective July 1 for the ensuing fiscal year. From the effective date of the budget, which is adopted and controlled at the department level, the amounts stated therein as proposed expenditures become appropriations to the various City departments. Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Encumbrances are considered to be expenditures in the year the commitment is entered into. Budget appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year unless encumbered by specific Council approval.
S. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.
T. Reclassifications
Certain accounts in prior-year financial statements have been reclassified for comparative purposes to conform with the presentation in the current-year financial statements. 35 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 41

NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) U. Implementation of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statements Effective July 1, 2021, the City implemented the following accounting and financial reporting standards:
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 87 In June 2017, GASB issued Statement No. 87, Leases. This Statement (1) increases the usefulness of governments’ financial statements by requiring recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized as inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract; and (2) establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financings of the right to use an underlying asset. Additionally, under this Statement, a lessee is required to recognize a lease liability and an intangible right-to-use lease asset, and a lessor is required to recognize a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources, thereby enhancing the relevance and consistency of information about governments’ leasing activities. The City adopted this accounting guidance for its June 30, 2022 year-end. See Notes 3 and 17 for additional details.
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 89 In June 2018, GASB issued Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Cost Incurred before the End of a Construction Period. This Statement establishes accounting requirements for interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period. This statement requires interest costs incurred before the end of a construction period be recognized as an expense in the period in which the costs is incurred for financial statements prepared using the economic resources measurement focus. As a result, interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period will not be included in the historical cost of a capital asset reported in a business-type activity or enterprise fund. The City adopted this accounting guidance for its June 30, 2022 year-end. There was no impact to the City's financial position as a result of adoption.
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 92
In January 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 92, Omnibus 2020. The primary objectives of this Statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting and to improve the consistency of authoritative literature by addressing practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements. The City adopted this accounting guidance for its June 30, 2022 year-end. There was no impact to the City's financial position as a result of adoption.
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 93
In March 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 93, Replacement of Interbank Offered Rates. The primary objective of this Statement is to address accounting and financial reporting implications that result from the replacement of an interbank offered rate (IBOR). The City adopted this accounting guidance for its June 30, 2022 year-end. There was no impact to the City's financial position as a result of adoption.
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 97
In June 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 97, Certain Component Unit Criteria, and Accounting and Financial Reporting for Internal Revenue Code Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plans an Amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 84, and a Supersession of GASB Statement No. 32. The primary objectives of this Statement are to (1) increase consistency and comparability related to the reporting of fiduciary component units in circumstances in which a partial component unit does not have a governing board and the primary government performs the duties that a governing board typically would perform; (2) mitigate costs associated with the reporting of certain defined contribution pension plans, defined contribution other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plans, and employee benefit plans other than pension plans or OPEB plans (other employee benefit plans) as fiduciary component units in fiduciary fund financial statements; and (3) enhance the relevance, consistency, and comparability of the accounting and financial reporting for Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 457 deferred compensation plans (Section 457 plans) that meet the definition of a pension plan and for benefits provided through those plans. The City adopted this accounting guidance for its June 30, 2022 year-end. There was no impact to the City's financial position as a result of adoption. 36 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 42

Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 91 In May 2019, GASB issued Statement No. 91, Conduit Debt Obligations. The primary objectives of this Statement are to provide a single method of reporting conduit debt obligations by issuers and eliminate diversity in practice associated with (1) commitments extended by issuers, (2) arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations, and (3) related note disclosures. This Statement achieves those objectives by clarifying the existing definition of a conduit debt obligation; establishing that a conduit debt obligation is not a liability of the issuer; establishing standards for accounting and financial reporting of additional commitments and voluntary commitments extended by issuers and arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations; and improving required note disclosures. The City has not determined what impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on the financial statements. Application of this statement is effective for the City's fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 94
In March 2020, GASB issued Statement No. 94, Public-Private and Public-Public Partnerships and Availability Payment Arrangements. The primary objective of this Statement is to improve financial reporting by addressing issues related to public-private and public-public partnership arrangements (PPPs). A PPP is an arrangement in which a government (the transferor) contracts with an operator (a governmental or nongovernmental entity) to provide public services by conveying control of the right to operate or use a nonfinancial asset, such as infrastructure or other capital asset (the underlying PPP asset), for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. This Statement also provides guidance for accounting and financial reporting for availability payment arrangements (APAs). An APA is an arrangement in which a government compensates an operator for services that may include designing, constructing, financing, maintaining, or operating an underlying nonfinancial asset for a period of time in an exchange or exchange-like transaction. The City has not determined what impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on the financial statements. The requirements of this statement are effective for the City's fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.

The City has not determined what impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on the financial statements. The requirements of this statement are effective for the City's fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 99
In April 2022, GASB issued Statement No. 99, Omnibus 2022. The primary objectives of this Statement are to enhance comparability in accounting and financial reporting and to improve consistency of authoritative literature by addressing (1) practice issues that have been identified during implementation and application of certain GASB Statements and (2) accounting and financial reporting for guarantees. The City has not determined what impact, if any, this pronouncement will have on the financial statements. The requirements of this statement related to leases, PPPs and SBITAs are effective for the City's fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 and the requirements related to financial guarantees and the classification and reporting of derivative instruments within the scope of Statement 53 are effective for the City's fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.

Investment Valuation
Investments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. Recurring fair value measurements are those that Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statements require or permit in the statement of net position at the end of each reporting period. Fair value measurements are categorized based on the valuation inputs used to measure an asset’s fair value: Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. Investments’ fair value measurements are as follows at June 30, 2022:

Investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by the California Government Code under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the City's pro-rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which is recorded on an amortized cost basis. The investment balance of $24,768,554 is not subject to valuation on a recurring basis.
Disclosure 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 City'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. 42 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 48

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, the investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of the fiscal year for each investment type.

Concentration of Credit Risk
Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the City's investment in a single issuer of securities. When investments are concentrated in one issuer, this concentration presents a heightened risk of potential loss. The City's investment policy contains limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer.
Investments in any one issuer (other than U.S. Treasury securities, mutual funds, and external investment pools) at June 30, 2022, that represent 5 percent or more of total City investments are as follows:
Issuer Investment Type Amount
Federal Home Loan Banks Government agency securities $ 18,299,507 Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to recover its deposits or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g. broker-dealer) to a transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of its investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The California Government Code and the City investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial credit risk for deposits or investments, other than the following provision for deposits: The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law (unless so waived by the government unit). The market value of the pledged securities in the collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to secure City's deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured public deposits. As of June 30, 2022, the carrying amount of the City's deposits was $547,785 and the bank balances were $768,338, of which $343,627 was insured by FDIC coverage limits.

NOTE 8: DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN
A. General Information about the Pension Plan
Plan Description
All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the Public Agency Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan (Plan) administered by the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS.) The Plan consists of individual rate plans (benefit tiers) within a safety risk pool (police and fire) and a miscellaneous risk pool (all other). Plan assets may be used to pay benefits for any employer rate plan of the safety and miscellaneous pools. Accordingly, rate plans within the safety or miscellaneous pools are not separate plans under GASB Statement No. 68. Individual employers may sponsor more than one rate plan in the miscellaneous or safety risk pools. The City sponsors six rate plans (three miscellaneous and three safety). Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and City resolution. CalPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plan regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CalPERS website.

Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees’ Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for the Plan are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CalPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability.
The City is required to contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees. The City's contributions to the Plan for the year ending June 30, 2022 were $4,176,329. 53 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 59

The City's net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the proportionate share of the net pension liability. The net pension liability of the Plan is measured as of June 30, 2021, and the total pension liability for the Plan used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2020 rolled forward to June 30, 2021 using standard update procedures. The City's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the City's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected contributions of all participating employers, actuarially determined. The City's proportionate share of the net pension liability for the Plan as of June 30, 2020 and 2021 was as follows:

Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability in the June 30, 2020 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Valuation Date June 30, 2020
Measurement Date June 30, 2021
Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 7.15%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary Increases Varies by Entry Age and Service
Investment Rate of Return 7.15% net of pension plan investment expenses; includes inflation
Mortality (1) Derived using CalPERS membership data for all funds.
Post Retirement Benefit Increase Contract COLA up to 2.50% until purchasing power protection allowance floor on purchasing power applies,
2.50% thereafter.
(1) The mortality table used was developed based on CalPERS' specific data. The table includes 15 years of mortality improvements using Society of Actuaries 90 percent of scale MP 2016. For more details on this table, please refer to the December 2017 experience study report (based on CalPERS demographic data from 1997 to 2015) available on CalPERS website.
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2020 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the fiscal years 1997 to 2015, including updates to salary increase, mortality and retirement rates.
The Experience Study report can be obtained at CalPERS' website under Forms and Publications.
Changes in Assumptions
For the measurement period June 30, 2021, there were no changes in assumptions.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers will be made at statutorily required rates, actuarially determined. Based on those assumptions, the Plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
Long-term Expected Rate of Return
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CalPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund (PERF) cash flows. Using historical returns of all the Public Employees Retirement Funds’ asset classes (which includes the agent plan and two cost-sharing plans or PERF A, B, and C funds), expected compound (geometric) returns were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11+ years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each PERF fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the rounded single equivalent expected return that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equal to the single equivalent rate calculated above and adjusted to account for assumed administrative expenses. 55 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 61

NOTE 9: PIEDMONT POLICE AND FIRE PENSION PLAN (CLOSED PLAN) A. General Information about the Pension Plan
Plan Description
The Piedmont Police and Fire Pension Plan (the Plan) is a single-employer defined benefit pension plan for the City's police and fire employees hired before July 1, 1971. The Plan is closed to new participants. Section 26.1 of the City Ordinance grants authority to establish and manage benefit terms to the Police and Fire Pension Board (the Board).
The Board is comprised of the mayor, one member of the City Council, one member of the police department, one member of the fire department, and one community representative.
As of June 30, 2022, the Plan covers 10 retired City employees or surviving spouses, who receive monthly benefits, which will continue for life.
Funding Policy
Contributions are determined by an actuarial valuation. Currently, assets exceed the total pension liability, so the contribution rate is 0%.

A 2% cost-of-living adjustment is payable to certain retirees.
B. Net Pension Liability (Asset)
The City's net pension liability (asset) is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan's fiduciary net position. The net pension liability (asset) of the Plan is based on a valuation as of June 30, 2022. A summary of principal assumptions and methods used to determine the net pension liability (asset) follows.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability (asset) in the June 30, 2022 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions:
Measurement Date June 30, 2022
Actuarial Cost Method Entry-Age Normal Cost Method
Actuarial Assumptions:
Discount Rate 5.50%
Inflation 2.50%
Salary Increases 2.00%
Investment Rate of Return 5.50% net of pension plan investment expenses Mortality
Service retirements and beneficiaries California PERS mortality table for healthy recipients (based on CalPERS 2000-2019 experience study), with generational mortality projection (to recognize future mortality
improvement) utilizing Society of Actuaries Scale MP-2021.
Disability retirements California PERS mortality table for work-related disabled retirees (based on CalPERS 2000-2019 experience study), with generational mortality projection (to recognize future mortality improvement) utilizing Society of Actuaries Scale MP-2021.
Changes of Assumptions
In fiscal year 21/22, the discount rate was increased from 5.00% to 5.50% and the mortality improvement scale was updated to Scale MP-2021. In fiscal year 20/21, the general inflation rate was lowered from 2.75% to 2.5% and the long-term rate of return was lowered from 6% to 5.5% based on capital market assumption review and the lower inflation rate. In fiscal year 2019/20, the mortality improvement scale was updated to Scale MP-2019.
Discount Rate
The discount rate was set equal to the long-term expected rate of return. The long-term expected rate of return was used as current assets are expected to be sufficient to cover all future benefit payments and expenses due to the magnitude of the Plan’s 1115% funded ratio and the average age of the group (84). 57 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 63

NOTE 11: FUND BALANCE
GASB Statement No. 54, “Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions” provides more clearly defined fund balance categories to make the nature and extent of the constraints placed on a government’s fund balances more transparent. The following classifications describe the relative strength of the spending constraints:
Non Spendable: Amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form (not expected to be converted to cash) or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. 62 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 68
CITY OF PIEDMONT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 11: FUND BALANCE (CONTINUED)
Restricted: Amounts subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions or constrained for a specific purpose by external parties, constitutional provisions, or enabling legislation. This fund balance type is essentially the same definition as restricted net position under GASB Statement No. 34.
Committed: Amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by the formal action of City Council. Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government removes or changes the specified use by taking the same type of action (legislation, resolution, ordinance) it employed to previously commit those amounts. Action to constrain resources must occur prior to year-end; however, the amount can be determined in the subsequent period.
Assigned: Amounts that are not restricted by the funding agency but are for specific purposes and assigned by City Council for that purpose. City Council's action in creating the fund is to ensure that the funds are used for their intended purpose. That purpose is not always planned for the current fiscal year as it may take several years to build up a sufficient fund balance to be able to implement the stated purpose. This classification also represents all remaining amounts (except negative balances) reported in governmental funds, other than the general fund, that are not classified as non spendable, restricted, or committed.
Unassigned: Residual amounts in the general fund, not classified as non spendable, restricted, committed, or assigned. For other governmental fund types, unassigned is only used when a deficit or negative fund balance occurs.
The City Council establishes (and modifies or rescinds) fund balance commitments by approval of a resolution.
Currently, the City Council has not committed any fund balances.The City Council delegates authority to the Finance Director to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. Assignments are less formal than commitments and can be changed by the Finance Director.
The accounting policies of the City consider restricted fund balance to have been spent first when an expenditure is incurred for the purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available. Similarly, when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of the unrestricted classifications of fund balance could be used, the City considers committed amounts to be reduced first, followed by assigned amounts, as appropriate opportunities arise, but reserves the right to selectively spend unassigned resources first to defer the use of these other classified funds.

The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions, and natural disasters. The City manages risk by participating in the public entity risk pools described below and by retaining certain risks.
Public entity risk pools are formally organized separate entities established under the Joint Exercise of Powers Act of the State of California. As separate legal entities, these risk pools exercise full powers and authorities within the scope of the related Joint Powers Agreements including the preparation of annual budgets, accountability for all funds, the power to make and execute contracts and the right to sue and be sued. Each risk pool is governed by a board consisting of representatives from member municipalities. Each board controls the operations of the respective risk pool, including selection of management and approval of operating budgets, independent of any influence by member municipalities beyond their representation on the board. Obligations and liabilities of these risk pools are the City’s responsibility.

A. Risk Pools
General Liability - Bay Cities Joint Powers Insurance Authority (BCJPIA) covers general liability claims, including excess liability, in an mount up to $29,000,000. The City has a deductible or uninsured liability of up to $10,000 per claim. Once the City's deductible is met, BCJPIA becomes responsible for payment of all claims up to the limit.
During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the City contributed $1,063,074 for current year coverage.
Workers' Compensation - BCJPIA also covers workers' compensation liability in an amount up to $1,000,000 per claim. The City has a deductible or uninsured liability of up to $150,000 per claim.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the City contributed $487,678 for current year coverage.
Financial statements for BCJPIA and LAWCX may be obtained from Bickmore & Associates, 1750 Creekside Oaks Drive, Suite 200, Sacramento, CA 95833.
The City’s contribution with each risk pool equals the ratio of the City’s payroll to the total payrolls of all entities participating in the same layer of each program, in each program year. Actual surpluses or losses are shared according to a formula developed from overall loss costs and spread to member entities on a percentage basis after a retrospective rating.
B. Liability for Uninsured Claims

Grant Awards
The City participates in certain federal and state assisted grant programs. These programs are subject to program compliance audits by the grantors or their representatives. Any liability for reimbursement which may arise as the result of these audits is not believed to be material.
Litigation
The City is involved in several pending lawsuits of a nature common to many similar jurisdictions. City management estimates that potential claims against the City, not covered by insurance, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial statements of the City.
Contracts
At June 30, 2022, the City had construction contracts outstanding of approximately $3,902,604 related to various construction projects.
Public Health Emergency
The World Health Organization declared the worldwide coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency on January 3, 2020 and officially declared it as a pandemic as of March 11, 2020. Management has performed an evaluation of certain financial statement line items such as investments, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses to determine whether valuation or impairment adjustments should be made. Management has determined that the amounts reported on the financial statements are properly valued as of June 30, 2022.

In 2017, the accounting discount rate was reduced from 7.65 percent to 7.15 percent. In 2016, there were no changes. In 2015, amounts reported reflect an adjustment of the discount rate from 7.5 percent (net of administrative expense) to 7.65 percent (without a reduction for pension administrative expense). In 2014, amounts reported were based on the 7.5 percent discount rate. * Fiscal year 2015 was the 1st year of implementation, therefore only eight years are shown. 70 Attachment A Agenda Report Page 77

INTERNAL SERVICE FUNDS
Internal service funds are used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the government and to other government units, on a cost reimbursement basis.
The concept of major funds does not extend to internal service funds because they do not do business with outside parties. For the Statement of Activities, the net revenues and expenses of each internal service fund are eliminated by netting them against the operations of the City departments that generated them. The remaining balance sheet items are consolidated with these same funds in the Statement of Net Position. However, internal service funds are still presented separately in the fund financial statements.

GENERAL FUND
The following funds are reported in total on the Governmental Fund Financial Statements under the column General Fund.
GENERAL FUND
General Fund - the general operating fund of the City and is used to account for all financial resources.
Deposits and Bonds - accounts for the receipt and use of deposits held by the City.
Traffic Safety - accounts for City revenue from vehicle code fines and parking ticket citation fees. The revenue comes from Alameda County and the Superior Court of California as a result of vehicle code violations and parking enforcement efforts by the Police Department. At the end of each fiscal year, revenue in the fund is transferred to the General fund.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON
COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the City Council of
the City of Piedmont
Piedmont, 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 Piedmont (the “City”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, 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 13, 2023.
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.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the City Council
City of Piedmont
Piedmont, California
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Measure B Fund of the City of Piedmont (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the related notes to the 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 financial position of the Measure B Fund of the City of Piedmont, as of June 30, 2022, and the changes in its financial position 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 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont, 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 2, the financial statements present only the Measure B Fund and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City of Piedmont as of June 30, 2022, the changes 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.
Management has omitted a 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.
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.

Attachment C Agenda Report Page 119
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted 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 generally accepted auditing standards 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 City of Piedmont'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.
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 In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 22, 2022, on our consideration of the City'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 the effectiveness of the City'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 City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MEASURE B FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: BACKGROUND - MEASURE B
Under Measure B, approved by the voters of Alameda County in 1986 and 2000, the City receives a portion of the proceeds of an additional one-half cent sales tax to be used for transportation-related expenditures. These measures were adopted with the intention that the funds generated by the additional sales tax will not fund expenditures previously paid by property taxes, but rather, would be used for additional projects and programs.
Projects funded by Measure B during the year were as follows:
Street Resurfacing - To improve, repair, and overlay cities streets.
Bike and Pedestrian - To provide sidewalk and ADA improvements and to implement the bikeway network.
The pool of funds held by the County is allocated among the cities in the County, based on the cities' populations and the number of roads within their city limits for other transportation-related projects. Funds allocated for streets and roads; bike lanes and pedestrian lanes are recorded as a special revenue fund.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
All transactions of the Measure B Fund of the City of Piedmont, California are included as separate special revenue and capital project funds in the basic financial statements of the City.
The financial statements are intended to present the financial position and results of operations of only transactions recorded under the Measure B Fund. The fund itself is included in the financial statements of the City.
B. Basis of Presentation
The Measure B Fund's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Government Accounting Standards Board is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.
C. Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements regardless of the measurement focus applied.
All governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when measurable and available and expenditures are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
D. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 5 Attachment C Agenda Report Page 123

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 3: CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The Measure B fund participates in the City’s cash and investment pool. See the City's Basic Financial Statements for disclosures related to cash and investments and the related custodial risk categorization.
NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The City participates in several grant programs. These programs did not require a Single Audit during the year ended June 30, 2022. However, these programs are subject to further examination by the grantors and the amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time. The City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The World Health Organization declared the worldwide coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency on January 30, 2020 and officially declared it a pandemic as of March 11, 2020. The City has performed an evaluation of financial statement line items to determine whether valuation of impairment adjustments should be made. The City has determined that the amounts reported on the Measure B Fund's financial statements are properly valued as of June 30, 2022. However, since the duration and full effects of the COVID-19 outbreak are yet unknown there could be future negative impacts to Measure B Fund's financial position that have yet to be determined.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON MEASURE B COMPLIANCE
AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
To the City Council
City of Piedmont
City of Piedmont, California
Report on Compliance for Measure B Fund
Opinion on Measure B Fund
We have audited the Measure B Fund of the City of Piedmont's (the City) compliance with the types of requirements described in the Master Program Funding Agreement between the City and the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) that could have a direct and material effect to the Measure B Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have direct and material effect on the Measure B Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
Basis for Opinion on Measure B Fund
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 requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and ACTC. Our responsibilities under those standards and the requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont 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 City of Piedmont’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 as specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC.
Auditor’s 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC 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 the Measure B Fund.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Auditor’s 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.
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 Master Programs Funding Agreement. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON
COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the City Council of
the City of Piedmont
City of Piedmont, 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 Measure B Fund of the City of Piedmont (the “Fund”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Fund’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated December 22, 2022.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City of Piedmont’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 City of Piedmont’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Piedmont’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 may exist that have not been identified.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fund'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the City Council
City of Piedmont
Piedmont, California
Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Measure BB Fund of the City of Piedmont (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the related notes to the 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 financial position of the Measure BB Fund of the City of Piedmont, as of June 30, 2022, and the changes in its financial position 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 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont, 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 2, the financial statements present only the Measure BB Fund and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City of Piedmont as of June 30, 2022, the changes 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.
Management has omitted a 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.
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.

Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted 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 generally accepted auditing standards 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 City of Piedmont'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.
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 In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 22, 2022, on our consideration of the City'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 the effectiveness of the City'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 City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MEASURE BB FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: BACKGROUND - MEASURE BB
Measure BB is a tax that was approved by the voters of Alameda County in November 2014, which implemented a 30 year Transportation Expenditure Plan. The measure extended Measure B which was the original 0.5 percent transportation sales tax approved in 2000 from ending April 1, 2022 to April 1, 2045 and increased the tax by 0.5 percent. This resulted in a 1 percent total sales tax in the County dedicated to transportation expenses. The City receives a portion of the proceeds to be used for transportation-related expenditures. The Measure BB Fund accounts for the direct funding from the measure for local street projects and bicycle and pedestrian projects based on population and road mileage provided by the additional 0.5 percent.
Projects funded by Measure BB during the year were as follows:
Street Resurfacing - To improve, repair, and overlay cities streets.
Bike and Pedestrian - To provide sidewalk and ADA improvements and to implement the bikeway network.
The pool of funds held by the County is allocated among the cities in the County, based on the cities' populations and the number of roads within their city limits for other transportation-related projects. Funds allocated for streets and roads, bike lanes and pedestrian lanes are recorded as a special revenue fund.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
All transactions of the Measure BB Fund of the City of Piedmont, California are included as separate special revenue and capital project funds in the basic financial statements of the City.
The financial statements are intended to present the financial position, results of operations and cash flows of only transactions recorded under the Measure BB Fund. The fund itself is included in the financial statements of the City.
B. Basis of Presentation
The Measure BB Fund's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Government Accounting Standards Board is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.
C. Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements regardless of the measurement focus applied.
All governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when measurable and available and expenditures are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
D. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 5 Attachment D Agenda Report Page 134

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 3: CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The Measure BB fund participates in the City’s cash and investment pool. See the City's Basic Financial Statements for disclosures related to cash and investments and the related custodial risk categorization.
NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The City participates in several grant programs. These programs did not require a Single Audit during the year ended June 30, 2022. However, these programs are subject to further examination by the grantors and the amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time. The City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The World Health Organization declared the worldwide coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency on January 30, 2020 and officially declared it a pandemic as of March 11, 2020. The City has performed an evaluation of financial statement line items to determine whether valuation of impairment adjustments should be made. The City has determined that the amounts reported on the Measure BB Fund's financial statements are properly valued as of June 30, 2022. However, since the duration and full effects of the COVID-19 outbreak are yet unknown there could be future negative impacts to Measure BB Fund's financial position that have yet to be determined.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON MEASURE BB COMPLIANCE
AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
To the City Council
City of Piedmont
Piedmont, California
Report on Compliance for Measure BB Fund
Opinion on Measure BB Fund
We have audited the Measure BB Fund of the City of Piedmont's (the City) compliance with the types of requirements described in the Master Program Funding Agreement between the City and the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) that could have a direct and material effect to the Measure BB Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have direct and material effect on the Measure BB Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
Basis for Opinion on Measure BB Fund
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 requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and ACTC. Our responsibilities under those standards and the requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont 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 City of Piedmont’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 as specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC.
Auditor’s 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC 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 the Measure BB Fund.

In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Auditor’s 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.
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 Master Programs Funding Agreement. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON
COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the City Council of
the City of Piedmont
Piedmont, 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 Measure BB Fund of the City of Piedmont (the “Fund”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Fund’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated December 22, 2022.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City of Piedmont’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 City of Piedmont’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Piedmont’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 may exist that have not been identified.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fund's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Opinion
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Measure F Fund of the City of Piedmont (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022 and the related notes to the 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 financial position of the Measure F Fund of the City of Piedmont, as of June 30, 2022, and the changes in its financial position 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 Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont, 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 2, the financial statements present only the Measure F Fund and do not purport to, and do not present fairly the financial position of the City of Piedmont as of June 30, 2022, the changes 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.
Management has omitted a 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.
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.

MEASURE F FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 1: BACKGROUND - MEASURE F
The Measure F Alameda County Vehicle Registration Fee (Measure F) was approved by the voters in November 2010, with 63 percent of the vote. The fee will generate about $10.7 million per year by a $10 per year vehicle registration fee. The collection of the $10 per year vehicle registration fee started in the first week of May 2011. The goal of Measure F is to sustain the County's transportation network and reduce traffic congestion and vehicle related pollution. The program includes the following four categories of projects:
Local Road Improvement and Repair Program (60 percent) Transit for Congestion Relief (25 percent)

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
All transactions of the Measure F Fund of the City of Piedmont, California (City) are included as a separate capital project fund in the basic financial statements of the City.
The accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and results of operations of only transactions recorded under the Measure F Fund. The fund itself is included in the financial statements of the City.
B. Basis of Presentation
The Measure F Fund's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Government Accounting Standards Board is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and financial reporting standards followed by governmental entities in the United States of America.
C. Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to "when" revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements regardless of the measurement focus applied.
All governmental funds are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when measurable and available and expenditures are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, regardless of when the related cash flows take place.
D. Description of Fund
The accounts are maintained on the basis of fund accounting. A fund is a separate accounting entity with a selfbalancing set of accounts. The City uses special revenue funds to account for the proceeds of specific revenues (other than for capital projects) that are legally restricted to be expended for specified purposes. 5 Attachment E Agenda Report Page 145

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2022
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) E. Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 3: CASH AND INVESTMENTS
The Measure F fund participates in the City’s cash and investment pool. See the City's Basic Financial Statements for disclosures related to cash and investments and the related custodial risk categorization.
NOTE 4: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
The City participates in several grant programs. These programs did not require a Single Audit during the year ended June 30, 2022. However, these programs are subject to further examination by the grantors and the amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the granting agencies cannot be determined at this time. The City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
The World Health Organization declared the worldwide coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak a public health emergency on January 30, 2020 and officially declared it a pandemic as of March 11, 2020. The City has performed an evaluation of financial statement line items to determine whether valuation of impairment adjustments should be made. The City has determined that the amounts reported on the Measure F Fund's financial statements are properly valued as of June 30, 2022. However, since the duration and full effects of the COVID-19 outbreak are yet unknown there could be future negative impacts to Measure F Fund's financial position that have yet to be determined.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON MEASURE F COMPLIANCE
AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
To the City Council
City of Piedmont
Piedmont, California
Report on Compliance for Measure F Fund
Opinion on Measure F Fund
We have audited the Measure F Fund of the City of Piedmont's (the City) compliance with the types of requirements described in the Master Program Funding Agreement between the City and the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) that could have a direct and material effect to the Measure F Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have direct and material effect on the Measure F Fund for the year ended June 30, 2022.
Basis for Opinion on Measure F Fund
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 requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and ACTC. Our responsibilities under those standards and the requirements specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report.
We are required to be independent of the City of Piedmont 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 City of Piedmont’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 as specified in the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC.
Auditor’s 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC 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 the Measure F Fund.

Attachment E Agenda Report Page 147
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Master Programs Funding Agreement between the City and the ACTC, 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 Auditor’s 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.
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 Master Programs Funding Agreement. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON
COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED
IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the City Council of
the City of Piedmont
Piedmont, 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 Measure F Fund of the City of Piedmont (the “Fund”), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Fund’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated December 22, 2022.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City of Piedmont ’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 City of Piedmont’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Piedmont’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 may exist that have not been identified.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fund's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

To the City Council and Management
of the City of Piedmont
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the City of Piedmont (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, we considered the City’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion 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.
However, during our audit we became aware of deficiencies in internal control other than significant deficiencies and material weaknesses and matters that are opportunities for strengthening internal controls and operating efficiency.
The memorandum that accompanies this letter summarizes our comments and suggestions regarding those matters.
This letter does not affect our report dated March 13, 2023, on the financial statements of the City of Piedmont.
We will review the status of these comments during our next audit engagement. We have already discussed many of these comments and suggestions with various City personnel, and we will be pleased to discuss them in further detail at your convenience, to perform any additional study of these matters, or to assist you in implementing the recommendations.
The City of Piedmont’s responses to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying attachment.
The City of Piedmont’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.
This communication is intended solely for the information and use of management, City Council, and others within the City, and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than those specified parties.

Summary of Control Deficiencies
June 30, 2022
Internal Controls - Payroll
During our review of internal controls over payroll, we noted there is no formally documented review or reconciliation between the direct deposits and checks paid and the payroll register. We recommend the City implement a process to reconcile the amount of the direct deposits and checks paid to the payroll register by someone other than the payroll clerk and that documentation of this reconciliation and review be maintained.
Management’s Response:
Management agrees. Staff will implement the following procedures:
1. The Finance Director will review and approve the semi-monthly payroll register. Approval will be via email and such email will be maintained on the finance network in the appropriate payroll folder.
2. The City Accountant will reconcile the semi-monthly payroll register to the payroll bank statements. The reconciliation will be saved to the finance network in the appropriate payroll folder.
Capital Assets
During our review of the City’s capital asset schedules, we noted the construction in progress (CIP) in the Aquatics fund was not correctly capitalized. We recommend the City reconcile the supporting CIP schedules to the general ledger as part of the capital assets reconciliation.
Management’s Response:
Management agrees. As part of our capital assets closing process, all Construction-in-Progress accounts will be reconciled to the general ledger.
Attachment G Agenda Report Page 155
City of Piedmont
Status of Prior Year Findings
June 30, 2022
Capital Assets
During our review of the City’s capital asset schedules, we noted the following:
• The City incorrectly recorded current year capital asset additions in the sewer fund as a direct adjustment to fund balance.
• The City incorrectly recorded a current year capital asset transfer from a governmental fund and to a businesstype fund as a direct adjustment to fund balance. • Accumulated depreciation and current year depreciation expense were understated as the City did not record depreciation for current year capital asset additions.
• Current year street paving additions on the capital asset schedule, City Asset Report, and general ledger were overstated and required adjustment.
• The capital asset schedule reported prior year disposals rather than the current year disposals. • The construction in progress schedule provided as part of the capital asset schedule included incorrect beginning balances.
The implementation of the new ERP system in FY 2020/21 may have contributed to the issues noted above. However, some of the issues are a result of the City’s process for recording certain transactions and data entry errors in the manual capital asset schedules. With the implementation of the new ERP system, we recommend the City review the various capital asset reports contained within the system and work with the system vendor, if necessary, to determine if the capital asset information can be obtained directly from the system and reduce the manual data entry on an excel spreadsheet. We further recommend the City use contra asset, transfers, and/or capital contribution accounts when recording the transfer of capital assets between funds.

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 of Piedmont (the City) for the year ended June 30, 2022.
Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards and, if applicable, Government Auditing Standards and the Uniform Guidance, as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated May 17, 2022. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Matters
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the City are described in Note 1 to the financial statements. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the City adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 87, Leases in 2022.
We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimates affecting the City’s financial statements were:
Depreciation – based on the City’s capitalization policy.
Lease receivable and deferred inflows of resources – based on the present value of payments to be received.
Workers’ compensation and general liability claims – based on known claim information and loss history.
Net pension liability, net pension asset (closed plan), net other post-employment benefits (OPEB) liability – based on actuarial valuations.
We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the estimates in determining that they are reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Attachment A summarizes uncorrected misstatements of the financial statements. Management has determined that their effects are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole. The material misstatements in attachment B were detected as a result of audit procedures and were corrected by management.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report.
We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.

Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated March 13, 2023.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the City’s financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to management’s discussion and analysis; the budgetary comparison schedules for the general fund and major special revenue funds; and the required GASB pension and OPEB schedules, which are required supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
We were engaged to report on the non-major funds combining financial statements and budgetary comparison schedules, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves.
