INDEPENDENT AUDITOR ’ S REPORT
Honorable Mayor and Counc il
City of Prior Lake
Prior Lake, Minnesota
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 Prior Lake , Minnes ota (the City) , as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2010 , which collectively comprise the City ’ s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents . These
financial stat ement s are the responsibility of the City ’ s management . Our responsibility is to express opinion s on these financial
statement s based on our audit. The prior year comparative information has been derived from the City ’ s 2009 financial statements
and, in our report dated April 28 , 2010 , we expressed unqualified opinions on the respective proprietary fund financial statements.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America . Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statement s are
free of material misstatement . An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statement s . An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statemen t presentation . We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion s.
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 as of December 31, 2010 , and the respective changes in financial position and , wher e applicable, cash flows and the
respective budgetary comparison f or the General fund ther e of , for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America .
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management ’ s Discussion and Analysis
on pages 13 through 27 and the Schedule of Funding Progress for the Postemployment Benefit Plan on page 91 be presented to
supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by
the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic
financial statements in an appropriate op erational, 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 Ameri ca,
which consisted of inquiries of manag ement 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 stateme nts. 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.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
As management of the City of Prior Lake (the City), we offer readers of the City’s financial statements this narrative overvi ew
and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended Decem ber 31, 2010 .
Financial Highlights
In April 2010, Moody’s Investor Services recalibrated the City of Prior Lake’s bond rating to the global rating scale and
therefore changed the City’s bond rating from Aa3 to an Aa2 . The Aa2 bond rating was reaffirmed with the 2010 bond
issuance. The high - quality Aa2 rating reflects the city's advantageous location within the Twin Cities Metropolitan Area
and above average wealth levels, healthy financial operations supported by ample operating reserves, and above avera ge,
yet manageable debt burden typical of a growing municipality.
(net asse ts
The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $141,812,944 ) . Of
unrestricted net assets
this amount, $21,018,355 ( ) may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and
creditors.
The City’s total net assets increased by $12,378,350 .
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of
$15,371,475 , a n in crease of $1,628,326 in comparison with the prior year . Approximately 42 percent of this total amount
or $6,459,595 is classified as unreserved, but is designated for capital outlay, capital improvements, development loans ,
severance compensation, commu nications and working capital . Additional constraints may apply to the designated uses.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unreserved fund balance for the general fund was $7,075,367 , or 58.1 percent of
budgeted 201 1 expenditures and transfers ( $12,1 88,313 ).
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 other supplemental information in addition to the basic financial
statements themselves.
Government - wide Financial Statements
government - wi de financial statements
The are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a
manner similar to a private - sector business.
statement of net assets
The presents information on all of the City’s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two
net assets
reported as . Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial
position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
statement of activities
The presents informati on showing how the City’s net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year . All
regardless of the timing of
changes in net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs,
related cash flows
. Thus, revenues and e xpenditures 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 o f the City that are principally supported by taxes and
governmental activities
intergovernmental revenues ( ) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion
business - type activitie s
of their costs through user fees and charges ( ) . The governmental activities of the City include general
government, public safety, public works, culture and recreation, economic development and interest on long - term debt . The
business - type activities of the City include water utility, sewer utilit y , storm water utility and transit services .
The government - wide finan cial statements start on page 31 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements
fund
A 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 government, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate
compliance with finance - related legal requirements . All of the funds of the City can be divided into two cate gories: governmental
funds and proprietary funds.
Governmental funds Governmental funds governmental
. are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as
activities
in the government - wide financial statements . However, unlike the governme nt - wide financial statements, governmental
near - term inflows and outflows of spendable resources balances of spendable
fund financial statements focus on , as well as on
resources
available at the end of the fiscal year . Such information may be useful in e valuating a government’s near - term
financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government - wide financial statements, it is useful to
governmental funds governmental activities
compare the information presented for with similar inf ormation presented for in the
government - wide financial statements . B y doing so, readers may better understand the long - term impact of the City’s near - term
financing decisions . Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures
governmental funds governmental
and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between and
activities
.
In accordance with governmental accounting standards t he City mai ntains 38 individual governmental funds , 16 which are Debt
Service funds . Information is presented separately in the B alance S heet (Governmental Funds) and in the S tatement of R evenues,
E xpenditures and C hanges in F und B alances (Governmental Funds) for th e Ge neral Fund , Debt Service Funds , and Construction
Funds , which are the major funds . Data from the other 20 governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation
of Other Governmental Funds . Individual fund data for each of the nonmajo r governmental funds and the debt service fund is
combining statements
provided in the form of elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General fund . A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the
Genera l Fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements start on page 3 6 of this report.
Proprietary funds Enterprise funds business - type activities
. are used to report the same functions presented as in the g overnment –
wide financial statements . The City uses enterprise funds to account for its water utility, sewer utilit y , storm water utility and
transit services .
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government - wide financial state ments, only in more detail .
The basic proprietary fund financial statements starts on page 48 of this report.
Notes to Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the g overnment - wide and
fund financial statements . The notes to the financial statements start on page 57 of this report.
Other Information
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds and internal service funds are
presented immediately following the notes to financial statements . Combining and individual fund financial statements and
schedules start on page 9 4 of this report.
Government - wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position . In the case of the City,
assets exceeded liabilities by $141,812,944 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.
The City’s investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery and e quipment), less any related debt used to acquire
those assets that are still outstanding total 83 percent of total net assets . The City uses these capital assets to provide services to
not
citizens; consequently, these assets are available for future spen ding . 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 sou rces,
since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidat e these liabilities.

Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds

Governmental funds governmental funds
. The focus of the City’s is to provide information on near - term inflows, outflows and
spendable
balances of resources . Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements . In particular,
unr eserved fund balance
may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the
fiscal year.
Activity in the City’s major funds is discussed below.
Fund Balance December 31,
Increase
Major funds 2010 2009 (Decrease)
$ 7,075,367 $ 6,036,756 $ 1,038,611
General
The General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City. The increase in the general fund was mainly due to an increase in
overall revenue. Expenditures were comparable to prior years amounts.
$ 1,836,513 $ 1,748,491 $ 88,022
Debt Service
The debt service fund balance increased $88 thousand. The City manages cash flow in all debt service funds and ensures
adequate resources exist to fund future obligations. This increase is mainly due to an increase in special assessment collections.
$ 712,882 $ 642,912 $ 69,970
Construction

General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Actual revenues were $ 525 ,00 5 over budget in 2010 . This is primarily due to taxes, licenses and permits, interest income, and
charges for services revenue collections being higher than anticipated . The only revenue so urces that were under budget were
fines and forfeitures and miscellaneous revenues, which in total were under budget by $7 0,82 9 .
Act ual expenditures were $520,767 less than budget in 2010 . The largest variances from budget were general government and
public safety, both being under budget by $217,100 and $164,277, respectively . In addit ion, the contingency reserve also provided
savings of $62,550.
The City’s General Fund balance will have increased by an estimated net amount of $1.04 million to a pr eliminary audited
position of $7 .0 8 million. This General Fund balance amount represents a reserve of 5 8 percent based upon the 2011 annual
budget.
Capital Assets
. The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities as of December 31, 2010 ,
net of accumulated depreciati on
amounts to $152,580,575 ( ) . This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings and
infrastructure improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, roads, highways and bridges.

from the prior year.

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates
The City adopted a general operating budget of $12,1 88 , 313 for fiscal year 201 1 , a n inc rease of $ 67, 767 or 0. 56 percent
over the 20 10 budget . This budget reflects an anticipated reduction of $2 58 ,000 in Market Value Homestead Credit from
the State and the elimination of the contingency account.
The City approved a $35,000 or 0.35 percent property tax l evy increase for 201 1 . This includes the levy required to meet
the debt service obligations on infrastructure improvements and major capital assets and reflects a modest increase in
development - related revenues.
The 201 1 budget for the enterprise funds i s $ 8.1 million, an increase of $ 928 ,000 over the 20 10 budget . This is primarily
due to increased capital projects in the Water Fund and Water Quality Fund.
2011 budgets were adopted for the Debt Service Funds and Revolving Equipment Fund in the amounts o f $4.3 million
and $694,000, respectively . Budgets were not adopted for these funds in prior years.
Continued staged development of land with the 3,000 acres annexed in 2004 from Spring Lake Township will provide
the majority of the City’s anticipated ma rket value growth over the course of the next 10 - 15 years.
Building permit revenues were adjusted to reflect a modest increase to an anticipated 6 0 single family construction starts
in 201 1.
Improvements scheduled for financing in 201 1 include Rutgers, W atersedge and Grayling Neighborhood Reconstruction
and the County Road 21/Arcadia intersection.
Financial management policies
The City has set a goal to establish “Financial Performance Standards” to measure the financial health of the City. These
stand ards serve multiple purposes:
(a) to serve as best practice measures to strengthen the City’s financial position and maximize the return of the taxpayer
dollar
(b) to communicate the fiscal performance and condition of the City to residents in a consistent mann er
(c) to facilitate the setting of policy and financial direction by the Council with resident input
The financial management policies are to be reviewed by City Council and additional objectives considered in 2011.
Objective 1: Aa2 Bond Rating
Achieve an Aa2 Bond Rating - Strong credit rating by Moody’s Inc. provides low cost financing for the City’s general obligation
bonds . In April 2010, Moody’s Investor Services recalibrated the City of Prior Lake’s bond rating to the global rating scale and
therefo re changed the City’s bond rating from Aa3 to an Aa2 . The Aa2 bond rating was reaffirmed with the 2010 bond issuance.
Objective 2: 45 Percent General Fund Reserve Balance

to provide adequate cash flow, offset revenue shortfalls and insurance for unforeseen catastrophic events . In April, 2011, t he City
Council adopted the Comprehensive Financial Management Policy which estab lishe s targeted reserve levels based on sound
rationale and defines intended uses.

RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF
REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES
TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2010
Total net change in fund balances - governmental funds $ 1,628,326
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement
of activities are different because:
Capital outlays are reported in governmental funds as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over the estimated useful lives as depreciation expense.
Capital outlay 3,854,233
Depreciation expense (3,150,181)
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while
the repayment of principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental
funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report
the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts and similar items when debt is first issued,
whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities.
Principal repayments 2,690,000
Debt issued or incurred, plus premium, less issuance costs and discount (1,235,000)
Bond issuance costs 31,743
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not
reported as revenues in the funds.
Capital assets contributed by developers 6,966,802
Assets constructed in the governmental funds for the enterprise funds are eliminated in the
government-wide statements. (2,439,677)
Interest on long-term debt in the statement of activities differs from the amount reported in the
governmental fund because interest is recognized as an expenditure in the funds when it is due,
and thus requires the use of current financial resources. In the statement of activities, however,
interest expense is recognized as the interest accrues, regardless of when it is due. 7,738
Governmental funds report debt issuance premiums and discounts as an other financing
sources or uses at the time of issuance. Premiums and discounts are reported as an
unamortized asset or liability in the government-wide financial statements. (19,018)
Delinquent property taxes receivable will be collected this year but are not available soon
enough to pay for the current period's expenditures and therefore are deferred in the funds. (93,691)
Certain revenues are recognized as soon as earned. Under the modified accrual
basis of accounting certain revenues cannot be recognized until they are available
to liquidate liabilities of the current period.
Special assessments (443,023)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current
financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Compensated absences and other postemployment benefit payable (42,248)
Change in net assets - governmental activities $ 7,756,004

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010
Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting e ntity
The City of Prior Lake , Minnesota (the City) , operates under “ Optional P lan B ” as defined in the State of Minnesota
statutes . Under this plan, the government of the City is directed by a Council composed of an elected M ayor and
four elected C ouncil members . The Council exercises legislative authority and determines all matters of policy . The
Council appoints personnel responsible for the proper administration of all affairs relating to the City . The City has
considered all potential units for which it is financially accountable, and other organizations for which the nature
and significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City ’ s financial
statements to be misleading or incomplete . The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has set forth
criteria to be considered in determining f inancial accountability . These criteria include appointing a voting majority
of an organization ’ s governing body, and (1) the ability of the primary government to impose its will on that
organization or (2) the potential for the organization to provide spe cific benefits to, or impose specific financial
burdens on the primary government . The City has the following component unit:
Blended c omponent u nit
The Prior Lake Economic Development Authority (EDA) was created pursuant to Minnesota statutes 469.090
th rough 469.108 to carry out economic and industrial development and redevelopment within the City in accordance
with policies established by the Council . The five - member Board of Directors consists of the full Council . The EDA
may not exercise any of the powers enumerated by the authorizing statutes without prior approval of the Council .
The EDA is reported as a blended special revenue fund . Separate financial statements are not issued for this
component unit.
Effective in 2011, the City Council approved change in composition of the board to two City Council members and
three members appointed from the community.
B. Government -w ide and f und f inancial s tatements
The government - wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement of activities ) report
information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the City and its component units . For the most part, the effect of

C. M easurement f ocus, b asis of a ccounting and f inancial s tatement p resentation
economic resources measurement focus
The government - wide financial statements are reported using the and the
accrual basis of accounting,
as are the proprietary fund financial stat ements . Revenues are recorded when earned
and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows . Property taxes
are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied . Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue
as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
current financial resources measurement focus
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the and
modified accrual basis of accounting .
the Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and
available
available . Revenues are considered to be when they are collectible within the current period or soon
enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period . For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available
if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period . Expenditures generally are recorded when
a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting . However, debt service expenditures, as wel l as expenditures
related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be
susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period . Only the portion of
special assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as
revenue of the current period . All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash
is received by the City .
Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is
recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place . On a modified accrual basis, revenue is recorded in the
year in which the resources are measurable and become available .
Non - exchange transactions, in which the City receives value without directly giving equal value in return, include
prope rty taxes, grants, entitlement and donations . On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in
the year for which the tax is levied . Revenue from grants, entitlements and donations is recognized in the year in
which all eligibility require ments have been satisfied . Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which
specify the year when the resources are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted, matching
requirements, in which the City must provide local resource s to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure
requirements, in which the resources are provided to the City on a reimbursement basis . On a modified accrual basis,
revenue from non - exchange transactions must also be available before it can be recogn ized.
Deferred revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied . Grants
and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are also recorded as deferred revenue . On the
modified accrual basis, receivables that will not be collected within the available period have also been reported as
deferred revenue in the fund financial statements.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U nited
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and
disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STAT EMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010
Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
The City reports major governmental funds that are calculated based on these criteria :
1) Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise
fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total (that is, total governmental or total enterprise funds),
a nd
2) Total assets, liabilities, 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.
The following major governmental funds meet the criteria described above:
General fund
The is the City ’ s primary operating fund . It accounts for all financial resources of the City ,
except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Debt S ervice fund
The accounts for the resources accumulated to provide repayment of the City ’ s general
obligation debt.
Construction fund
The accounts for the resources accumulated and payments made for C ity projects.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
W ater fund
The accounts for the activities of the water distribut ion system the City maintains .
Sewer fund
The accounts for the activities of the City ’ s sewage collection operations.
W ater Qualit y fund
The accounts for the costs associated with the City ’ s storm water system, which are
financed by the storm water surcharge, and e nsure that user charges are sufficient to pay for those costs.
T ransit fund
The accounts for the City ’ s transit services which is funded mainly by the Metropolitan Council .
Private - sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issue d prior to December 1, 1989, generally are
followed in both the government - wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do
option
not conflict with or contradict guidance of GASB . Governments also have the of following subsequent
private - sector guidance for their business - type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation . The
City has elected not to follow subsequent private - sector guidance.
As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from government - wide financial statements .
Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the City ’ s water and sewer function s and various other functions
of the City . Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various
functions concerned.
program revenues
Amounts reported as include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or
privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contribution s , and 3) capital grants and contri butions, including special
general revenues
assessments . Internally dedicated resources are reported as rather than as program revenues .
Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.

e xpenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a
proprietary fund ’ s principal ongoing operations . The principal operating revenues of the City enterprise fund s are
charges to customers for sales and s ervices . Operating ex penses for enterprise 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 p ractice to use restricted
resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

Note 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
Duration
It is the policy of the City to require that all investment maturities shall not extend beyond ten (10) years in
length. Subject to market conditions and cash flow requirements, it is desirable for the city ’ s investments to be
laddered over time in an effort to reduce interest rate market r isk.
Accounts r eceivable
Accounts receivable include amounts billed for services provided before year end . The City annually certifies
delinquent water and sewer accounts to the County for collection in the following year . Therefore, there has been no
al lowance for doubtful accounts established.
Property t axes
The Council annually adopts a tax levy and certifies it to the County in December for collection in the following
year . The County is responsible for collecting all property taxes for the City . Th ese taxes attach an enforceable lien
on taxable property within the City on January 1 and are payable by the property owners in two installments . The
taxes are collected by the County Treasurer and tax settlements are made to the City during January, June and
December each year.
Taxes payable on homestead property, as defined by Minnesota statutes, were partially reduced by a market value
credit aid . The credit is paid to the City by the State of Minnesota (the State) in lieu of taxes levied against the
ho mestead property . The State remits this credit in two equal installments in October and December each year.
Delinquent taxes receivable include the past six years ’ uncollected taxes . Delinquent taxes have been offset by a
deferred revenue liability for d elinquent taxes not received within 60 days after year end in the governmental fund
financial statements.
Special a ssessments
Special assessments represent the financing for public improvements paid for by benefiting property owners . These
assessments are recorded as receivables upon certification to the County . Special assessments are recognized as
revenue when they are received in cash or within 60 days after year end . All governmental special assessments
receivable are offset by a deferred revenue liab ility in the governmental fund financial statements .
Interfund r eceivables and p ayables
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the
fiscal year are referred to as either “ due to/from othe r funds ” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or
“ advances to/from other funds ” (i.e., the non - current portion of interfund loans) . All other outstanding balances
between funds are reported as “ due to/from other funds. ” Any residual balances out standing between the
governmental activities and business - type activities are reported in the government - wide financial statements as
“ internal balances. ”

Capital a ssets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks,
an d similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business - type activities columns in the
government - wide financial statements . Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost
of more than $5,000 (amount not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of three years . Such assets are
recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed . Donated capital assets are
recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donatio n.
In the case of initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by governmental activities) the
City chose to include items dating back to June 30, 1980 . The City was able to estimate the historical cost for the
initial rep orting of these assets through backtr end ing (i.e., estimating the current replacement cost of the
infrastructure to be capitalized and using an appropriate price - level index to deflate the cost to the acquisition year
or estimated acquisition year) . As the City constructs or acquires capital assets each period, including infrastructure
assets, they are capitalized and reported at historical cost . The reported value excludes normal maintenance and
repairs which are essentially amounts spent in relation to ca pital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency
of the item or extend its useful life beyond the original estimate . In the case of donations the City values these
capital assets at the estimated fair value of the item at the date of its donati on.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets ’
lives are not capitalized.
I nterest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business - type activities is included as part of the
capitalized value of the assets constructed .
Property, p lant and equipment of the City, are depreciated using the straight - line method over the following
estimated useful lives:
Useful Lives
Assets in Years
Land improvements 20
Machinery and equipment 5 - 30
Vehicles 5 - 10
Infrastructure 10 - 65

2008.
Long - term o bligations
In the government - wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long - term
debt and other long - term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business -
type activities or proprietary fund type statement of net assets . Beginning January 1, 2003, bond premiums and
discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bond s using the straight - line
method in the government - wide and proprietary financial statements .
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognized bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond
issuance costs, during the current period . The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources .
Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are
reported as other financing uses . Issuance costs, whether or not withheld f rom the actual debt proceeds received, are
reported as debt service expenditures.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2010
Note 4: DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS - STATEWIDE - CONTINUED
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERA ’ s Coordinated and Basic Plan members . The retiring member
receives the higher of step - rate benefit accrual formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2) . Under
Method 1, the annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10
years of service and 2.7 percent for each remaining year . The a nnuity accrual rate for a Coordinated Plan member is
1.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years and 1.7 percent for each remaining year . Under Method 2,
the annuity accrual rate is 2.7 percent of average salary for Basic Plan members and 1.7 percent for Coordinated
Plan members for each year of service. For PEPFF members, the annuity accrual rate is 3.0 percent for each year of
service . For all PEPFF members and G ERF members hired prior to July 1, 1989 whose annuity is calculated using
Met hod 1, a full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal 90 . Normal retirement age is 55 for
PEPFF members and 65 for Basic and Coordinated members hired prior to July 1, 1989 . Normal retirement age is
the age for unreduced Social Security b enefits capped at 66 for Coordinated members hired on or after July 1, 1989 .
A reduced retirement annuity is also available to eligible members seeking early retirement.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement . A single - life annuity is a lifetime
annuity that ceases upon death of the retiree -- no survivor annuity is payable . There are also various types of joint
and survivor annuity options available which will be payable over joint lives . Members may also leave their
con tributions in the fund upon termination of public service, in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement
age . Refunds of contributions are available at any time to members who leave public service, but before retirement
benefits begin.
The bene fit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current provisions and apply to active
plan participants . Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are bound
by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
PERA issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary
information for G ERF and PEPFF . That report may be obtained on the Internet at www. mnpera. org, by writing to

annual required
The City ’ s annual other postemployment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the
contribution of the employer (ARC).
The City has elected to calculate the ARC and related information using the
alternative measurement method permitted by GASB Statement 45 for employers in plans with fewer than on e
hundred total plan members. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to
cover normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not
to exceed thirty yea rs. The following table shows the components of the City ’ s annual OPEB cost for the year, the
amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the City ’ s net OPEB obligation to the Retiree Health Plan:
Annual required contribution $ 20,382
Interest on net OPEB obligation 1,471
Adjustment to annual required contribution (1,449)
Annual OPEB cost (expense) 20,404
Contributions made (2,197)

Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year 36,772
Net OPEB obligation - end of year $ 54,979
The City ’ s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and t he net OPEB
obligation for fiscal year 2010 and the two preceding fiscal years were as follows:

D. Funded s tatus and f unding p rogress
As of December 31, 2008, the actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $149,741, all of which was unfunded. The
covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $546, 318 , and the ratio of the
unfunded actuarial accrued liability to the covered payroll was 27.4 percent.
The projection of future benefit payments for an ongoing plan involv es estimates of the value of reported amounts
and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions
about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding th e funded status
of the plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results
are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress,
present ed as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multi - year
trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to
the actuarial accrued liabili ties for benefits.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 6: POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS - CONTINUED
E. Methods and a ssump tions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by
the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the
historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The methods and
assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short - term volatility in actuarial
accrued liabilities and the actuarial value o f assets, consistent with the long - term perspective of the calculations.
The following simplifying assumptions were made:
Retirement age for active employees
- Based on the historical average retirement age for the covered group, active
plan members we re assumed to retire at age 60, or at the first subsequent year in which the member would qualify
for benefits.
Marital status
- Marital status of members at the calculation date was assumed to continue throughout retirement.
Mortality
- Life expectanc ies were based on mortality tables from the National Center for Health Statistics. The
2004 United States Life Tables for Males and for Females were used.
Turnover
- Non - group - specific age - based turnover data from GASB Statement 45 were used as the basis for
assigning active members a probability of remaining employed until the assumed retirement age and for developing
an expected future working lifetime assumption for purposes of allocating to periods the present value of total
benefits to be paid.
Hea lthcare cost trend rate -
The expected rate of increase in healthcare insurance premiums was based on
projections of the Office of the Actuary at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. A rate of 7.0 percent
initially, reduced to an ultimate rate of 6.0 percent after six years, was used.
Health insurance premiums -
2008 health insurance premiums for retirees were used as the basis for calculation of
the present value of total benefits to be paid.
Inflation rate
- The expected long - term inflation a ssumption of 3.3 percent was based on projected changes in the
The 2007 Annual Report of the
Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers (CPI - W) in
Board of Trustees of the Federal Old - Age and Survivors Insurance and Disability Insurance Trust Funds
for an
intermediate growth scenario.
Payroll growth rate -
The expected long - term payroll growth rate was assumed to equal the rate of inflation.
Based on the historical and expected returns of the City ’ s short - term investment portfolio, a discount rate of 4.0
percent was used. In addition, a simplified version of the entry age actuarial cost method was used. The unfunded
actuarial accrued liability is being amortized as a level percentage of projected payroll on an open basis. The
remain ing amortization period at December 31, 2010 was thirty years.
