City of Fort Walton Beach America's Most Beautiful Beaches 107 Miracle Strip Parkway, SW * Fort Walton Beach, Fl 32548 (850) 833-9500 * Fax (850) 833-9640 * www.fwb.org March 3, 2014 Honorable Mayor, City Council Members, and Citizens of the City of Fort Walton Beach City of Fort Walton Beach 107 Miracle Strip Parkway SW Fort Walton Beach, FL 32548 Ladies and Gentlemen: The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, is hereby submitted herewith pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 218.39(1)(d) requiring each local government entity to complete an audit report within nine months after the end of the fiscal year. This report consists of management’s representations concerning the finances of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City of Fort Walton Beach has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the government’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformance with GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles). Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City’s comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. The financial statements of the City of Fort Walton Beach have been audited by Warren Averett LLC, a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City of Fort Walton Beach’s financial statements for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditor’s report is presented in Section II - Financial Section as the first component of this section of the report. The independent audit of the financial statements of the City of Fort Walton Beach was part of a broader, state mandated “Single Audit” designed to meet the special needs of state grantor agencies. The standards governing Single Audit engagements require the independent auditor to iv report not only on the fair presentation of the financial statements, but also on the audited government’s internal controls and compliance with legal requirements, with special emphasis on internal controls and compliance with legal requirements involving the administration of state awards. These reports are available in the Compliance section of this report. Generally accepted accounting principles require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City of Fort Walton Beach’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditor.

Situated at the junction of two major highways - US 98 (Miracle Strip Parkway) and SR 85 (Eglin Parkway) - Fort Walton Beach enjoys the benefits of its crossroads location along the coastal portion of the Northwest Florida regional transportation network. The City offers a full-service government providing police and fire protection; cultural and recreational activities including parks, a library, a museum, and two championship golf courses; planning and zoning; public works such as street, sidewalk, right-of- way, and cemetery maintenance; utilities service including water, sewer, and storm water; and garbage and recycling collection. The City has an exciting and romantic history. As early as 600 B.C., Indian tribes were attracted to Fort Walton Beach from the Mississippi and Tennessee River Valleys and the Southeast Georgia coast. The beginning for the City occurred following the War Between the States when Alabama war veteran John Brooks selected a site of 111 acres where he built a three-room cabin in 1867. Other settlers soon followed. By 1884, the population of the area required establishment of a small schoolhouse. In 1902, the first hotel, Brooks House, was built along Santa Rosa Sound and shortly thereafter the first post office was built in 1906. The Montgomery, Alabama, Maxwell Field military base developed an airfield in Fort Walton in 1933 on 137 acres of land and used it as a bombing First Schoolhouse and gunnery range. The most significant factor in the City's growth was the creation and later expansion, of that airfield, which is now Eglin Air Force Base (the largest military installation in the world). v The presence of the military base provided the key economic stimulus for the City's early growth, supplemented by the attractiveness of the location. The military base became less important to the City's economy than the growing tourism industry. In the late 1960’s and early 1970’s Fort Walton Beach began to experience a decline in economic prosperity, some of which can be attributed to the utility and transportation infrastructure getting older and commercial and residential structures becoming deteriorated. New development began to take place in the surrounding communities. The City, having nearly run out of developable land, started to focus attention on finding ways to induce private enterprise investment in the City thus capturing a greater share of the local and regional market. With the purchase of the Fort Walton Landing Park in 1986, which has become the City’s premier gathering place along Santa Rosa Sound, and building upon that with the complete reconstruction of Brooks Street, including the Brooks Bridge Park in 2013, the City’s downtown waterfront was opened up to an extent never before realized and spurred economic growth downtown. Outside of downtown, the City began construction of a new recreational complex, which promises to add to the attraction of the City. New Recreation Complex Brooks Bridge Park The financial reporting entity (the government) includes all the funds and account groups of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as well as component units. Component units are legally separate entities for which the primary government is financially accountable. Accordingly, the Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency is reported as a blended component unit of the City of Fort Walton Beach. The annual budget serves as a foundation for the City of Fort Walton Beach’s financial planning and control. The City of Fort Walton Beach prepares a budget designed to meet the highest standards of performance in municipal budgeting. A Budget Policy Workshop is held with City Council in May to determine City Council’s priorities and position on issues critical to development of the operational and capital budgets. City Council’s decisions on the issues presented provide the framework under which the upcoming year’s budget is prepared to meet City Council’s programmatic objectives within available fiscal resources. Department Directors, with the assistance of their division managers, are responsible for identifying their staffing needs and operational funding needs within budget development parameters. In addition, they must conduct a comprehensive review of departmental objectives, accomplishments, and performance measures. A Budget Committee is formed comprised of the City Manager, Finance Director, and Financial Analyst. The Committee conducts comprehensive meetings with Department Directors and Division Managers to review their budget requests and a collaborative effort is undertaken to achieve City Council and department goals. The City Council is required by Florida State Statute and City Charter to hold public hearings on the proposed budget and adopt a final budget no later than September 30, the close of the City’s fiscal year. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department (e.g. financial services), and division (e.g. purchasing). Department Directors may request transfers of appropriations within a department and between divisions to transfer appropriations between line items, not to increase the total budget or to transfer resources between funds. Transfers of appropriations between funds require the approval of the City Council. The budget may be amended at any time by Resolution vi of City Council. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided in the report for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. For the General Fund and the Community Development Agency Fund, this comparison is presented on page 20 & 21 as part of the basic financial statements for the governmental funds. For governmental funds with appropriated annual budgets, other than those previously mentioned, this comparison is presented in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules, Section D of this report, which starts on page 79. FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION The information presented in the financial statements is best understood when it is considered from the broader perspective of the specific environment within which the City of Fort Walton Beach operates. Local Economy The City of Fort Walton Beach currently faces many of the same economic challenges that are affecting the global economy, however economic stabilization is evident. For fiscal year 2013-14, the State of Florida projects an increase for each of the City’s revenue sharing funds, which suggests an uptick in discretionary spending. After five years of declining values, the Okaloosa County Property Appraiser anticipates a 0.8% increase in taxable assessed value for the City. It appears the downward spiral in the real estate market has ended. However, civilian furloughs at Eglin AFB and Hurlburt Field, two of the area’s largest employers, could adversely affect the local economy in the short-term. Eglin Air Force Base is the world’s largest Department of Defense installation, spanning 724 square miles. Defense contractor companies are established throughout the Northwest Florida region. It is estimated that local military bases currently represent a $6.0 billion annual economic impact on the area, with approximately 73% of the local economy supported by the military. Being located on the Gulf of Mexico in Northwest Florida, tourism is a large part of the regional economy. Regional accolades continue to enhance the area’s image, promote visibility, and generate additional tourism and sales tax dollars. Local tourism has benefited from the national shift to vacation sites accessible by driving instead of flying. The Fort Walton Beach-Destin area is a popular drive destination in Florida, according to a survey of auto visitors by Visit Florida. Long-Term Financial Planning The City undertakes several processes to assist in future planning, such as:  A 5-year CIP (Capital Improvement Program) Plan is developed and approved by City Council each year during the annual budget process.  5-year replacement plans for capital equipment, including vehicles, machinery, and computer hardware and software, are also developed and approved by Management each year during the annual budget process Relevant Financial Policies The City has several financial policies that are utilized during daily operations, as well as during the budget and financial planning processes. The City utilizes fund balance reserves only for one- time non-recurring expenditures. In addition, the City maintains its fund balance level in the General Fund at 30% of fund expenditures – this policy helps to ensure that the City has sufficient funding in place for emergency and disaster relief. vii Major Initiatives These indicators, as well as others, were taken into account when adopting the City’s budget for fiscal year 2014. The City’s total budget for fiscal year 2014 totals $34.7 million, which is $2.7 million higher than the fiscal year 2013 approved budget, due to efforts to return the City to financial stability and programmatic sustainability. The 2014 budget allocates $18.3 million, a 19.3% increase as compared to the fiscal year 2013 budget, to the General fund, $13.2 million to the Enterprise funds, and $3.2 million to other funds. For the fiscal year 2014 budget, the ad valorem rate increased to 5.7697 mills. A 3% increase in water and sewer rates is included in the budget; no other significant changes to the City’s various rate and fees are included in the fiscal year 2014 budget. AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Awards The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Fort Walton Beach for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. This was the twenty-seventh consecutive year that the City received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the City must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, satisfying both GAAP and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate. In addition, the government also received the GFOA’s Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for its annual budget dated October 1, 2013. This was the eighteenth consecutive year that the City received this prestigious award. In order to qualify for the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award, the City’s budget document was judged proficient in several categories, including as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communications device. Acknowledgments The preparation of this report would not have been possible without the efficient and dedicated services of the entire staff of the Finance Department. We would like to express our appreciation to all members of the Department who assisted and contributed to the preparation of this report. We would also like to thank the Mayor and City Council for their unfailing support for maintaining the highest standards of professionalism in the management of the City of Fort Walton Beach’s finances and for their attention in conducting the financial operations of the City in a responsible and progressive manner. Appreciation is also expressed to the accounting firm of Warren Averett, LLC for their continued assistance and professionalism. Respectfully submitted, Michael D. Beedie, PE Brandy L.

FINANCIAL SECTION  INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT  MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION  COMBINING AND INDIVIDUAL FUND STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT Report on the Financial Statements 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 Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as of and for the year ended September 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements, as listed in the table of contents. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes 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 Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Opinions 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 Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as of September 30, 2013, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof, and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund and Community Redevelopment Agency (special revenue fund) for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. 1 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Independent Auditor's Report (Continued) Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that Management's Discussion and Analysis on pages 3-13, the Schedule of Funding Progress on page 76, the Schedule of Contributions from the Employer and Other Contributing Entities on page 77, and the Schedule of Other Post-Employment Obligations on page 78 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual non-major fund financial statements, and statistical section, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The Schedule of Expenditures of State Financial Assistance is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining and individual non-major fund financial statements and the Schedule of Expenditures of State Financial Assistance are 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. Such 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 non-major fund financial statements and the Schedule of Expenditures of State Financial Assistance are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 3, 2014, on our consideration of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. Fort Walton Beach, Florida March 3, 2014 2 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS As management of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, we offer readers of the City of Fort Walton Beach’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Fort Walton Beach for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages iv-viii of this report. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS  The assets of the City of Fort Walton Beach exceeded its liabilities by $65.4 million (net position). Of this amount, $15.2 million represents unrestricted assets that are available to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.  The government’s net position increased by $480,684, primarily attributable to an increase in capital contributions from a joint project with Okaloosa County which, accompanied by a decrease in general government expenses necessitated by declining revenues, was offset by an impairment loss in both the general fund and the utilities fund. In the General Fund, the demolition of an outdated recreation complex resulted in an impairment loss of $271,287. The impairment loss of $786,713 in the Utilities Fund was the result of the disposition of a re-use water filtration system that was no longer viable.  As of the close of the fiscal year, the City of Fort Walton Beach’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $22.1 million, an increase of $5.9 million in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 43.6% of this amount, or $9.6 million, is available for spending at the discretion of City Council.  At the end of the fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance for the General Fund was $7.6 million, or 38.0% of total General Fund expenditures.  The City of Fort Walton Beach’s total debt increased by $15.4 million, or 99.8%, during the fiscal year. The City issued an $8.5 million Capital Improvement Revenue Note to finance the construction of a new recreation complex and purchase golf equipment and a lift truck. In addition, the City’s Water Utility Fund began construction of a new pump station and force main project, which is being financed via a State Revolving Fund loan. OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS This discussion and analysis intends to serve as an introduction to the City of Fort Walton Beach’s basic financial statements, which are comprised of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves. The focus of financial statements prepared in accordance with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement 34 is on both the City as a whole (government-wide) and on major individual funds. Both perspectives (government-wide and major funds) allow the user to address relevant questions, broaden a basis for comparison (year-to-year or government-to-government), and enhance the City’s accountability. Government-Wide Financial Statements Designed to be corporate-like, the government-wide financial statements consolidate governmental and business-type activities into two columns, which sum to a total for Primary Government. This provides readers with a broad overview of the City of Fort Walton Beach’s finances in a manner similar to a private-sector business. Two statements, the statement of net position and the statement of activities, are utilized to provide information on a government-wide basis. 3 The statement of net position presents information on all of the City of Fort Walton Beach’s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. This statement combines and consolidates the governmental funds’ current financial resources (short-term available resources) with capital assets and long-term obligations. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of the financial position of the City of Fort Walton Beach. 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 flow in future fiscal periods. Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of Fort Walton Beach 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 of Fort Walton Beach include general government (city clerk, city council, city manager, human resources, finance, purchasing, fleet maintenance, service maintenance, and non-departmental expenses), public safety (police, fire, building, and code enforcement services), physical environment (cemetery), transportation (engineering, streets, public works, and right-of-way), economic development (Community Development Block Grant Program, and community redevelopment agency), culture and recreation (parks, library, and museum), and debt service interest. The business-type activities of the City of Fort Walton Beach include utilities (water, sewer, and storm water), sanitation, and golf. The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of Fort Walton Beach itself (known as the primary government), but a component unit, the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA), which is a legally separate entity for which the City of Fort Walton Beach is financially accountable. The CRA is considered a blended component unit of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida and is presented as a special revenue fund as part of the primary government. The government-wide financial statements are found on pages 14-15 of this report. Fund Financial Statements A fund is a grouping of related accounts used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of Fort Walton Beach, 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 Fort Walton Beach can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. 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 are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual accounting, the focus of which is 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 financial requirements. The basic governmental fund financial statements are on pages 16-21 of this report. 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 4 decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The City of Fort Walton Beach maintains eight individual governmental funds (General Fund, Community Redevelopment Agency Fund, Florida Building Code Fund, Law Enforcement Trust Fund, Law Enforcement Training Fund, Debt Service Fund, Community Development Block Grant Fund, and Beal Memorial Cemetery Perpetual Care Fund). Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance for the General Fund and the Community Redevelopment Agency Fund. Data from the other six governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. 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 of Fort Walton Beach adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund, as well as each of the other governmental funds. A budgetary comparison statement is provided for the General Fund on page 20 and the Community Redevelopment Agency Fund on page 21 of this report. Proprietary Funds All proprietary funds of the City of Fort Walton Beach are maintained as enterprise funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the statement of net position and the statement of activities. The City of Fort Walton Beach uses enterprise funds to account for its utilities operations (water operations and distribution, sewer collections and treatment, and stormwater management), sanitation operations (garbage), and golf club operations. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information on utilities operations, sanitation operations, stormwater operations, and golf club operations, all of which are considered major funds of the City of Fort Walton Beach except for stormwater, which is considered non- major. The basic proprietary fund financial statements are found on pages 22-26 of this report. Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. The City’s fiduciary funds include the Pension Trust Funds (general employees, police officers, and firefighters). 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 Fort Walton Beach’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The basic fiduciary fund financial statements are found on pages 27-28 of this report. NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is essential to the full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements begin on page 29 of this report. OTHER INFORMATION In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning the City of Fort Walton Beach’s progress in funding its obligation to provide pension benefits to its employees. The required supplementary information is found on pages 76-78 of this report. 5 The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds immediately follow the required supplementary information on Pension funds and can be found beginning on page 79 of this report. GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of Fort Walton Beach, assets exceeded liabilities by $65.4 million (net position), as reported in Table 1. The government’s net position increased by $480,684 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. By far, the largest portion of the City’s assets, $44.3 million or 67.7%, reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g. land, infrastructure, buildings, machinery, and equipment) less any related debt still outstanding that was used to acquire those assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City of Fort Walton Beach reports investment in its capital assets net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. An additional portion of the City’s assets, 9.0%, represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of $15.2 million is unrestricted and may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.

The governmental activities experienced a decrease, primarily related to the forgiveness of an advance made to the golf fund, an increase in the other post-employment benefits (OPEB) liability, and an impairment loss on the disposal of a recreation center due to the construction of a new, consolidated complex. The business activities experienced an increase primarily related to the forgiveness of an advance made to the golf fund by the general fund, coupled with an increase in capital contributions and grants due to a joint project with Okaloosa County and reduction in expenses due to budgetary constraints. This increase was partially offset by an impairment loss of $786,713, due to the disposition of a re-use water filtration 6 system that was no longer viable. The details related to this increase are analyzed further in the Financial Impacts section of this discussion. Reported in Table 2 are the key elements of the increase in net position for the current year.

Key elements of this change are as follows:  Operating grants increased $197,399, or 33.5% due to an additional funding received through the Assistance to Firefighters and the Local Agency Program grants.  Capital grants for governmental activities decreased $75,858, or 37.5% as a result of the prior year’s receipt of an infrastructure grant, the loss of which was offset by an increase in the Florida Department of Transportation local agency grant.  Other revenue decreased $281,763, or 9.2%, attributable primarily to lower investment earnings and decreased franchise fees due to the final piece of the correction in the method of allocation by one of the primary revenue sources. 7  Other post-employment benefits (OPEB) liability and an impairment loss related to the demolition of an outdated recreation complex resulted in a decrease in net position of $371,683.  Overall, expenses for governmental activities decreased from prior year by $1.4 million, or 7.0%. This decrease was offset by a related revenue decrease due to the reclassification of the expense reimbursements related to the cost allocation plan from transfers to expense reductions.  Expenses for economic development increased by $382,422, or 54.0%, attributable to economic incentive grants provided through the Community Redevelopment Agency.  The general fund forgave an advance made to the golf fund, which resulted in a decrease of $2.6 million.

Key elements of this change are as follows:  Capital Grants and Contributions increased $1.5 million, or 464.3% due to funding received for a joint project with Okaloosa County.  Other Revenue decreased by $115,010, or 75.0%, the majority of which is related to a decline in investment earnings.  Expenses throughout the enterprise funds increased by $1.2 million, or 9.6%. This increase was primarily due to the reclassification of the expense reimbursements related to the cost allocation plan from transfers out to expenses; transfers saw a related increase, a portion of which is attributable to the forgiveness of an advance made to the Golf Fund.  The Utilities Fund recognized an impairment loss of $786,713, due to the disposition of a re-use water filtration system that was no longer viable.

Governmental Funds The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of available resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unrestricted fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. As of September 30, 2013, the City of Fort Walton Beach’s governmental funds have combined ending fund balances of $22.1 million, an increase of $5.9 million in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 43.6% of this amount, or $9.6 million, is available for spending at the discretion of City Council. The remainder of fund balance is non-spendable or restricted. Details of the fund balance classifications can be found on page 16 of this report, as well as in Note 18. The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of this fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance of the General Fund was $7.6 million, while total fund balance reached $15.7 million. As a measure of the General Fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unrestricted fund balance and total fund balance to total expenditures. Unrestricted fund balance represents 38.0% of the total General Fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 78.6% of that same amount. During the 2013 fiscal year, the fund balance of the City’s General Fund increased by $5.7 million. This increase was primarily related to the issuance of an $8.5 million Capital Improvement Revenue Note to 10 finance the construction of a new recreation complex and purchase golf equipment and a lift truck. This increase was offset by the forgiveness of an advance to the City’s golf fund. The Community Redevelopment Agency Fund increased by $97,330. This increase is due to lower than anticipated spending levels. Proprietary Funds The City of Fort Walton Beach’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Unrestricted net position of the proprietary funds totaled $5.9 million at September 30, 2013, of which the Utilities Fund amounted to $3.6 million, the Sanitation Fund totaled $2.1 million, and the Stormwater Utility Fund was $511,359. The Golf Fund had negative unrestricted net position of $316,714 as a result of an improper chemical application that substantially impacted course play. In total, net position of the proprietary funds increased $4.3 million. The factors concerning the finances of these four funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the City of Fort Walton Beach’s business-type activities. GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS A schedule comparing the original to the final budget and the variance from the final budget to the actual results is included on page 20 of the financial statements. Differences between the original budget and the final amended budget were $12.7 million. Significant information related to this difference is summarized as follows:  The City issued the 2013A Capital Improvement Revenue Note to finance the construction of a new recreation complex in an amount of $8.5 million.  The City refunded its 2001 Capital Improvement Revenue Bond with the $4.4 million proceeds from the issuance of the 2013 Capital Improvement Revenue Note. Actual results, when compared to the final budget, show a variance of $9.0 million for expenditures. This variance is primarily due to amending the budget for grant revenue received and capital debt issued, but not yet expended. CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION Capital Assets The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities, as of September 30, 2013, was $44.3 million (net of accumulated depreciation and related debt). This represents a net increase of $4.0 million, or 9.9%. Highlights are summarized as follows:  Fewer assets were purchased that were over the GASB 34 threshold.  Capital assets outdated, unserviceable, and no longer used are systematically disposed of on an annual basis.  An impairment loss of $271,287 and $786,713, due to the demolition of an outdated recreation complex and the disposition of a re-use water filtration system that was no longer viable were recorded.  The City began construction of a new force main and pump station. Of the $16.0 million project, $14.2 million was expended during the fiscal year and added to Construction in Progress, a portion of which was financed through existing reserves and a contribution from Okaloosa County. 11 Table 3 Total Capital Assets Net of Accumulated Depreciation Governmental Activities Business-Type Activities Total Activities FY 2013 FY 2012 FY 2013 FY 2012 FY 2013 FY 2012 Land $ 9,961,261 $ 9,961,261 $ 765,078 $ 765,078 $ 10,726,339 $ 10,726,339 Buildings 6,434,774 7,057,626 1,926,888 2,052,313 8,361,662 9,109,939 Improvements Other Than Buildings 5,926,341 6,110,056 17,212,291 16,783,482 23,138,632 22,893,538 Infrastructure 4,121,764 4,431,266 - - 4,121,764 4,431,266 Intangible Assets 281,928 393,935 18,277 23,253 300,205 417,188 Machinery & Equipment 1,713,565 2,026,331 2,455,379 2,618,635 4,161,944 4,644,966 Equipment under Capital Lease 58,565 397 - 12,429 58,565 12,826 Easements - - 34,642 28,532 34,642 28,532 Construction in Progress 979,617 488,118 15,421,355 2,616,944 16,400,972 3,105,062 $ 29,477,815 $ 30,468,990 $ 37,833,910 $ 24,900,666 $ 67,311,725 $ 55,369,656 Additional information on the capital assets of the City of Fort Walton Beach can be found in Note 5 of this report on page 48. Long-Term Debt As shown in the following table, as of September 30, 2013, the City had total bonded debt, revenue notes, and capital leases outstanding of $30.7 million. All of the City’s debt represents bonds and notes secured solely by specified revenue sources (i.e. revenue bonds/notes) and capital leases. The City has no general obligation or special assessment debt. The State of Florida does not place a legal limit of debt on municipalities. For general obligation debts greater than one year, the City is required to conduct a voter referendum.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGET AND RATES Economic indicators and factors that are useful for evaluating the framework within which the City operates are discussed below.  The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is 1.3% higher than a year ago. This indicator translates into a higher cost of providing services to residents.  The Municipal Cost Index is 1.9% higher than a year ago. This index is prepared to show the effects of inflation on the cost of providing municipal services.  The Consumer Confidence Index is at its highest level since 2008. This indicator measures economic conditions by gauging the future spending of consumers. 12  The Leading Economic Index has grown steadily over the last year and is designed to signal turning point patterns in economic data.  The military has a significant presence in our community. These installations are essential to the continued long-term economic vitality of this area. Combined, the military and defense-related industries have a $6.0 billion annual impact on Okaloosa County’s economy, with approximately 73% of our local economy supported by the military. These indicators, as well as others, were taken into account when adopting the City’s budget for fiscal year 2014. The City’s budget for fiscal year 2014 totals $34.7 million, which is $2.7 million higher than the fiscal year 2013 approved budget, due to efforts to return the City to financial stability and programmatic sustainability. The 2014 budget allocates $18.3 million, a 19.3% increase as compared to the fiscal year 2013 budget, to the General fund, $13.2 million to the Enterprise funds, and $3.2 million to other funds. For the fiscal year 2014 budget, the ad valorem rate increased to 5.7697 mills. A 3% increase in water and sewer rates is included in the budget; no other significant changes to the City’s various rate and fees are included in the fiscal year 2014 budget. Personnel expenses account for approximately 50.0% of the City’s budget. The City’s fiscal year 2014 budget remains relatively stable in this category, at 291.02 full time equivalent positions.

City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, (the City) was originally chartered as a municipality under laws of the State of Florida Special Act of the Florida Legislature in 1937. The City Manager-Council form of government was established in 1953. As authorized by its charter, the City provides the following services: public safety (police, fire, and inspection), highways and streets, water and sewer, sanitation, stormwater, culture and recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services. The financial statements of the City have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted (GAAP) in the United States of America applicable to governmental units and the Uniform Accounting System mandated by Chapter 218.33, Florida Statutes. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the standard- setting body for governmental accounting and financial reporting. The following is a summary of the more significant accounting policies of the City: A. The Reporting Entity A seven member City Council and a Mayor govern the City, each elected at-large for four-year terms. The Council has no powers other than those expressly vested in it by State Statute and the City Charter, and their governmental powers cannot be delegated. As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these financial statements present the City of Fort Walton Beach (the primary government) and its component unit. In evaluating the City as a reporting entity, management has considered all potential component units for which the City may or may not be financially accountable and, as such, be included within the City's financial statements. Management utilized criteria set forth in GASB No. 61 for determining financial accountability of potential component units in evaluating all potential component units. In accordance with GASB No. 61, the City (primary government) is financially accountable if it appoints a voting majority of the potential component unit's governing board and 1) it is able to impose its will on the organization or 2) there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefit to or impose specific financial burden on the City. In addition, component units can be other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the primary government are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. 29 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) A. The Reporting Entity (Continued) As of September 30, 2013, the City of Fort Walton Beach had one component unit, as defined by GASB 61, which has been presented in the financial statements of the primary government using the blended presentation method, and is presented as a governmental fund type with a fiscal year end of September 30. The Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (the Agency) was formed to prepare a community redevelopment plan for a designated geographic area within the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida. All of the City's council members serve as board members of the Agency. The Agency's governing body is the same as the governing body of the City and the Agency provides services specifically to the Community Redevelopment Area of the City. Due to the nature and significance of the Agency's relationship with the City, exclusion of the Agency's financial operations would render the City's financial statements incomplete or misleading. The Fort Walton Beach Housing Authority (the Authority) is considered a related organization to the City rather than a component unit. The City Council of Fort Walton Beach, Florida appoints the board members of the Authority. However, the Authority's board operates independently of the City Council and does not create a financial burden or benefit to the City. B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements The basic financial statements include both government-wide (based on the City as a whole) and fund financial statements. The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its component unit. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely, to a significant extent, on fees and charges for support. The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. 30 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements (Continued) Separate fund financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though fiduciary funds are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Pension plans recognize revenue when contributions are due as there is a statutory requirement to make the contribution. Property taxes are recorded 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. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available 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 6 months of the end of the current fiscal period, except for property taxes, for which the period is 60 days. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. Franchise fees, 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 within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period. Sales taxes, gasoline taxes, and other intergovernmental revenues collected and held by the state at year-end on behalf of the City, are also recognized as revenue. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the government. 31 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting (Continued) The Okaloosa County Tax Collector bills and collects property taxes for the City in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida. Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of the date of assessment and remain in effect until discharge by payment. Taxes are payable when levied (on November 1, or as soon thereafter as the assessment roll becomes available to the Tax Collector). The following is the current property tax calendar: Lien Date January 1, 2013 Levy Date November 1, 2013 Due Date November 1, 2013 Delinquent Date April 1, 2014 Discounts of 1% for each month taxes are paid prior to March 2014 are granted. Revenue recognition criteria for property taxes under the GASB requires that property taxes expected to be collected within 60 days of the current period be accrued. No accrual has been made for 2013 ad valorem taxes because property taxes are not legally due until subsequent to the end of the fiscal year. Current year taxes, which are uncollected as of the end of the fiscal year, are generally immaterial in amount and highly susceptible to uncollectibility and, therefore, are not recorded as a receivable on the balance sheet date. D. Basis of Presentation The financial transactions of the City are recorded in individual funds. Each fund is a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and other financial resources, together with all related liabilities and residual equities or balances, and changes therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations. As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are other charges between the government's utility function and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes. 32 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Basis of Presentation (Continued) Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses 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's enterprise funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The City considers all impact fee revenue as capital contributions for the water and sewer system; therefore, no amount from the impact fee is included in operating revenue. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and service, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. The following three broad classifications are used to categorize the fund types used by the City: Governmental Governmental funds focus on the determination of financial position and changes in financial position (sources, uses, and balances of financial resources) and not net income. The City has the following major governmental funds: General Fund - This is the City's primary operating fund and is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Community Redevelopment Fund - The community redevelopment fund is the operating fund of the Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency"). It is used to account for the activities of the Agency. Proprietary Proprietary funds focus on the determination of net income, changes in net position, financial position, and cash flows. All of the City's proprietary funds are enterprise funds, as fees are charged to external users for services. The following is a description of the major proprietary funds of the City: Utilities Fund - Used to account for the operations of the City, which provides distribution of potable water, sales and service and sanitary wastewater collection, treatment and disposal. Sanitation Fund - Accounts for the operation of the City that provides for solid waste collection and disposal. Golf Fund - Accounts for the operations and maintenance of the City-owned golf courses. 33 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) D. Basis of Presentation (Continued) Fiduciary Fiduciary funds are used to account for the assets held on behalf of outside parties, including other governments, or on behalf of other funds within the City. The City has the following type of Fiduciary funds: Pension Trust Funds - Used to report the resources that are required to be held in trust for the members and beneficiaries of the three defined benefit pension plans administered by the City: General Employees' Retirement Fund, Police Officers' Retirement Fund, and Firefighters' Retirement Fund. E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity Cash and Cash Equivalents The City considers all highly liquid investments (including restricted assets) with a maturity of 90 days or less when purchased, and investments with the State Board of Administration (SBA), to be cash equivalents. Additionally, each fund's equity in the City's investment pool (see Note 3) is considered to be cash equivalent since the funds can deposit or effectively withdraw cash at any time without prior notice or penalty. Deposits and Investments Section 218.415, Florida Statutes, requires the investment of surplus public funds and prescribes the instruments in which those investments are authorized, specifically the State of Florida Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund, direct obligations of the United States Government or other obligations unconditionally guaranteed by the United States Government, collateralized interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in state or federal banks or savings and loan associations, debt securities of the Federal Farm Credit Banks, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the Federal Home Loan Bank, the Government National Mortgage Association, the Federal National Mortgage Association, and securities of or other interest in certain investment companies or investment trusts, the portfolio of which is limited to United States Government obligations or repurchase agreements fully collateralized by such obligations. The City adheres strictly to the provisions of those cited Statutes, as well as with Chapter 280, Florida Statutes, which requires the City to maintain deposits only with "Qualified Public Depositories." The City maintains a cash and investment pool available for use by all funds. Earnings from such investments are allocated to the respective funds based on applicable cash participation by each fund. 34 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Deposits and Investments (Continued) In addition, restricted cash accounts, certificates of deposit, and other investments are separately maintained by a few City funds in accordance with bond ordinances, retirement fund plan documents and other contractual agreements. The Beal Memorial Cemetery Perpetual Care Special Revenue Fund also invests excess cash in allowable debt and equity investments to maximize return on investment. Investments are stated at fair value, based on quoted market prices. The City's cash and investment pool and certain individual funds participate in the Local Government Surplus Trust Fund - Florida PRIME and Fund B, operated by Florida's State Board of Administration (SBA). The SBA is governed by Chapter 19-1 of the Florida Administrative Code (FAC). The FAC provides guidance and establishes the general operating procedures for the administration of the Local Government Surplus Trust Funds. Additionally, the Florida Auditor General performs an operational audit of activities and investments of the SBA. GASB Statement No. 31, titled Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools, applies to the Florida PRIME and Fund B. GASB 31 outlines the two options for accounting and reporting for money market investment pools as either "2a-7 like" or fluctuating net asset value (NAV). GASB 31 describes a "2a-7 like" pool as an external investment pool that is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment company, but nevertheless has a policy that it will, and does, operate in a manner consistent with Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the 1940 Act). Rule 2a-7 is the rule that permits money market funds to use amortized cost to maintain a constant NAV of $1.00 per share, provided that such funds meet certain conditions. City investments with the SBA may be made or liquidated by wire on a same day basis, subject to limitations described in Note 3. The Florida PRIME is considered a SEC "2a-7 like" fund, thus the account balance is also considered the fair value of the City's investment. The Fund B is accounted for as a fluctuating NAV pool. The Fair Value factor for September 30, 2013, was 1.13262284 percent. The account balance was multiplied by the factor in order to report the fair value of the City's investment in Fund B. 35 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Deposits and Investments (Continued) Pension Trust Funds may invest in direct obligations of the United States Government or other obligations unconditionally guaranteed by the United States Government, collateralized interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in state or federal banks or savings and loan associations, bonds or indebtedness of United States corporations rated BAA or better, stocks of U.S. corporations which are listed on the national stock exchanges (limited to 50% of the assets of the fund) and investment accounts maintained by major national banks and insurance companies given the top rating by Best. In addition to the above investment options, the Firefighters' Retirement Pension Trust Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets at cost in real estate. The Beal Memorial Cemetery Special Revenue Fund may invest in domestic equities, international equities, real estate investment trusts, Treasury Inflation Protected Securities ("TIPS"), fixed income investments and Rule 2(a)-7 like cash equivalents. Bond Sinking Fund Investments are limited by bond ordinances to investments in direct obligations of the United States government or other marketable securities eligible as security of trust funds under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. The maturity date on Sinking Fund Investments is limited by the individual bond ordinances to correspond to the related debt service payments. Receivables and Payables Interfund transactions are reflected as loans, services provided, reimbursements, or transfers. Loans between funds outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either "due to other funds" or "due from other funds" (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or "advances" (i.e., the non-current portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between governmental activities and 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 a fund balance nonspendable account in applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not expendable available financial resources. 36 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Receivables and Payables (Continued) Services provided, deemed to be at market, or near market rates, are treated as revenues and expenditures/expenses. Reimbursements occur 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 columnar presentation. All proprietary fund receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectibles. The allowance is computed by considering 100% of receivables in excess of 90 days, past trends on collections of accounts, and current year account write-offs. Inventory Inventory is valued at cost (first-in, first-out). The consumption method is used to account for inventory. Under the consumption method, inventory items are recorded as expenditures during the period inventory is used. The General Fund inventory balance is considered nonspendable in the fund financial statements to indicate that it is not available for appropriation. Restricted Assets Certain resources in the following funds are restricted for specific purposes: in the Debt Service Fund, for the repayment Capital Improvement Note, Series 2011; in the Utility Fund, for the repayment of the Utility System Revenue Bonds, Series 2005; in the Golf Fund, for the repayment of the Capital Improvement Note, Series 2011; and, customer utility deposits and impact fees received are restricted in the Utilities Fund and Sanitation Fund. Capital Assets Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (roads, bridges, curbs and sidewalks, drainage systems, lighting systems and 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 cost more than the following: Land All Buildings and improvements $ 10,000 Infrastructure $ 10,000 Improvements - other $ 10,000 Equipment, vehicles, computers $ 1,000 Library books All 37 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Capital Assets (Continued) In the case of the initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e. those reported by governmental activities) the government chose to include all such items regardless of their acquisition date or amount. The government was able to estimate the historical cost for the initial reporting of these assets through various allowable estimating techniques. As the government constructs or acquires additional 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 capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or extend its useful life beyond the original estimate. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized in proprietary funds as projects are constructed. The amount of interest to be capitalized is calculated by offsetting interest expense incurred from the date of the borrowing until the completion of the project with interest earned on the invested proceeds over the same period. Property, plant, and equipment of the primary government are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives: Assets Years Buildings 20-50 Years Improvements other than buildings 7-40 Years System infrastructure 20-40 Years Machinery and equipment 3-10 Years Compensated Absences It is the City's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick leave based on the length of service to the City. All vacation leave is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. Sick leave is accrued in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements based on a ratio of the sum of sick leave paid over the last several years to the total balance of sick leave at the end of each fiscal year. A liability for the amounts of vacation and sick leave is reported in the governmental fund financial statements only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. Compensated absences of the governmental activities are primarily paid from the General Fund. 38 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Long-Term Obligations 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 position. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective and straight-line interest methods. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term of the related debt. In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize 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. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures. Classification of Fund Balance GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, establishes fund balance classifications that comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which a government is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of the resources reported in governmental funds. Fund balance classifications, under GASB 54, are comprised of the following:  Nonspendable – includes amounts that are (a) not in spendable form, or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The "not in spendable form" criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for example: inventories, deposits, prepaid items, and advances to other funds.  Restricted – includes amounts that can be spent only for the specific purposes stipulated by external resource providers, constitutionally or through enabling legislation. Restrictions may effectively be changed or lifted only with the consent of resource providers. 39 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Classification of Fund Balance (Continued)  Committed – includes fund balance amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes that are internally imposed by a formal action (a Resolution) of the government’s highest level of decision making authority, the City Council. Commitments may be changed or lifted only by the City taking the same formal action (a Resolution) that imposed the constraint initially. Contractual obligations are included to the extent that existing resources in the fund have been specifically committed for use in satisfying those contractual obligations.  Assigned – includes spendable fund balance amounts that are intended to be used for specific purposes that are neither considered restricted or committed. Intent is expressed by (a) the City Council or (b) a body (for example: a budget or finance committee) or official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. This indicates that resources in these funds are, at a minimum, intended to be used for the purposes of that fund. The City Council has delegated authority to the City Manager and Finance Director in accordance with the City's fund balance policy.  Unassigned – includes residual positive fund balance within the General Fund which has not been classified within the other above mentioned categories. Unassigned fund balance may also include negative balances for any governmental fund if expenditures exceed amounts restricted, committed, or assigned for those specific purposes. These classifications reflect not only the nature of funds, but also provide clarity to the level of restriction placed upon fund balance. Fund balance can have different levels of restraint, such as external versus internal compliance requirements. Unassigned fund balance is a residual classification with the General Fund. The General Fund should be the only fund that reports a positive unassigned balance. In all other funds, unassigned is limited to negative residual fund balance. The City's General Fund formal fund balance policy establishes a targeted minimum reserve balance in its Committed Fund Balance equal to 30% of annual budgeted expenditures. In circumstances when an expenditure is made for a purpose for which amounts are available in multiple fund balance classifications, fund balance is generally depleted in the order of restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned. 40 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Position or Equity (Continued) Net Positions When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the government's policy to use restricted resources first and then unrestricted resources, as they are needed. F. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America 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 2 - STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY A. Budgets Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Annual appropriated budgets are adopted by resolution for all governmental and proprietary funds. However, budgets for proprietary funds are not legally required to be reported on and are not included in these financial statements. All appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end except for appropriations related to multi-year capital projects. Budgetary data reflected in the financial statements are established by the following procedures: Prior to September 1 of each year, proposed budgets are received by the City Council from the City Manager. These proposed expenditures, along with all estimated receipts, taxes to be levied, and balances expected to be brought forward are considered by the City Council. The City Council requires such changes as deemed necessary, sets proposed millages, and establishes dates for tentative and final public budget hearings as prescribed by Florida Statutes. Proposed budgets are advertised in a newspaper of general circulation in the City. Public hearings are conducted for the purposes of receiving input, responding to complaints, and providing reasons and explanations for intended actions to all citizens participating. 41 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 2 - STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY (CONTINUED) A. Budgets (Continued) Prior to October 1, the budget for all governmental and proprietary funds of the City is legally enacted through passage of a resolution. Budget amendments are periodically passed via resolutions during the fiscal year. Appropriations lapse at year-end except for appropriations related to multi-year capital projects. Budgeted beginning fund balance in the accompanying financial statements reflects planned utilization of prior years' unreserved/undesignated fund balance to the level required to accomplish current year objectives. The level of budgetary control (that is the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed appropriations) has been established at the fund level. The City Manager and Finance Director are authorized to transfer budgeted amounts within departments of a fund and between departments of a fund; however, any revisions that alter the total expenditures of any fund must be approved by the City Council. Budget amounts reflected in the financial statements are originally adopted amounts as amended by action of the City Council by revision of fund totals. All amendments to originally adopted amounts were made in a legally permissible manner. B. Encumbrances Encumbrances represent commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods or services. Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of resources are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is employed in the governmental funds. Encumbrances outstanding at year-end are reported as reservations of fund balances and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities because the commitments will be reappropriated and honored during the subsequent year. NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS The City maintains a cash and investment management pool in which each fund (except Pension Trust Funds) participates on a dollar equivalent and daily transaction basis. The City's cash and investment management pool includes pooled cash maintained in interest- bearing demand deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, and pooled investments of the Local Government Surplus Trust Fund. Interest income (which includes unrealized gains and losses) is distributed monthly based on balance at date of distribution. 42 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) The City's cash and investment management pool is considered to be cash equivalent for reporting purposes because it is an internally managed fund, which allows individual funds to, at any time, deposit additional cash or make withdrawals without prior notice or penalty. The Local Government Surplus Trust Fund - Fund B does not meet the requirements of a SEC 2a7-like fund defined by GASB No. 31 and is considered an investment; however, the City has chosen not to reclass Fund B from cash equivalent to investment for reporting purposes due to its immaterial balance of approximately $119,000 at September 30, 2013 in comparison to the City's pooled cash of approximately $31 million. As of September 30, 2013, Fund B recorded an unrealized gain on investment in the amount of $25,665. Deposits Custodial Credit Risk - It is the City's policy to maintain its deposits only with "Qualified Public Depositories" as defined in Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. The provisions of this statute allow "Qualified Public Depositories" to participate in a multiple financial institution collateral pool to ensure the security for public deposits. All qualified public depositories must place with or in the name of the Chief Financial Officer of the State of Florida, collateral in the amount of the average daily balance of public deposits multiplied by the average monthly balance of public deposits or 125 percent of the average daily balance of public deposits greater than capital. In the event of default by a qualified public depository, excess losses over insurance and collateral will be recovered through assessments to all qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository in default. Under this method, all City deposits, including certificates of deposit, are considered fully insured. At year-end, the value of the City's deposits was $30,516,802, all of which was held by qualified public depositories or permitted investments under Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Investments As of September 30, 2013, the City's investments consist of those held in the various pension trust funds and the Beal Memorial Cemetery Perpetual Care Special Revenue Fund. The types of investments, which can be made by the City, are restricted by state statutes, retirement fund plan documents, and other contractual agreements. A description of the requirements and the types of investments allowed can be found in Note 1-E. 43 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) Investments (Continued) As of September 30, 2013, the City held the following investments and related maturities: INVESTMENT MATURITIES (YEARS) Fair Value <1 1-5 5-10 10-15 15-20 20-25 25-30 >30 Investments subject to interest rate risk Corporate debt $ 8,515,594 $ 323,433 $ 1,312,290 $ 6,785,878 $ - $ 50,681 $ 5,594 $ 37,718 $ - Corporate CMOs 106,753 - - - - 41,381 33,564 - 31,808 U.S. Treasury 5,417,688 505,493 2,641,523 714,138 - 130,259 144,454 1,281,821 - U.S. Government Agencies 1,437,360 - 1,318,161 119,199 - - - - - U.S. Government Agency Pools 3,439,377 - - 1,603,978 1,648,826 31,890 101,817 52,866 - $ 18,916,772 $ 828,926 $ 5,271,974 $ 9,223,193 $ 1,648,826 $ 254,211 $ 285,429 $ 1,372,405 $ 31,808 Investments not subject to interest rate risk Money market funds $ 171,440 Corporate equities 34,661,564 Mutual funds 14,025,140 48,858,144 Total $ 67,774,916 Interest Rate Risk - The City's investment policy does not limit its investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from changes in interest rates. The City's policy encourages shorter-term investments for operating funds in order to meet the anticipated cash flows requirements. The investment policies for the pension plans do not specifically address interest rate risk. Credit Rate Risk - State law limits investments of surplus public funds to those investments described above. According to the City's General Employees' Pension Plan investment policy, investment in all domestic corporate fixed income securities is limited to those securities rated "A" or higher by Moody, S&P, or Fitch, except that up to 10% of the fixed income securities may have a rating below "A" but not less than "Baa". As of September 30, 2013, the General Employees' Pension Plan held no investments whose rating was below Baa; the Plan's intent, in compliance with Florida Statutes 112.661(5)(b), is to sell any investment, whose rating falls below the policy threshold, as soon as it is economically feasible. Investments in the General Employees' Pension Plan whose rating was less than "A" at September 30, 2013, comprised 9.05% of the total cost of fixed income securities in the Plan. The Police Officers' Pension Fund limits investment in fixed income securities to those rated "Baa/BBB" or higher by a major rating service. The Firefighters' Pension Fund limits investment in fixed income securities to those securities rated "Baa/BBB" or higher by a major rating service. All Pension Plans were in compliance with its respective investment policy regarding credit rate risk as of September 30, 2013. 44 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) Investments (Continued) Credit Rate Risk (Continued) The Moody's rating ranges of the different investment classes held by each respective plan at September 30, 2013, are as follows: General Pension Police Pension Plan Plan Fire Pension Plan Money market funds Aaa-A Aaa-A Aaa-A Corporate CMOs Aaa-Aa1 N/A N/A Corporate debt Aaa-Baa3 Aa2-A3 Aa2-Baa2 U.S. Treasury Aaa Aaa Aaa U.S. government agencies Aaa-A2 Aaa Aaa U.S. government pools A1 N/A N/A The Beal Memorial Cemetery investment policy does not limit investments to those with specific credit ratings for domestic or international equities. The overall rating of fixed income investments shall be at least investment grade based on the rating of two of the three Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations (NRSRO). Concentration Credit Risk - The City places no limit on the amount that may be invested in any one issuer, in regards to its general operations investments. The City encourages portfolio diversification to minimize each of the types of risk related to investments. The General Employees' Pension Fund limits investment of fixed income securities of any single issuer to no more than 5% of the cost of all fixed income securities. Investments in collateralized mortgage obligations are limited to 15% of the market value of the total fixed income portfolio and must be backed by mortgage securities rated "Aaa" by Moody's or "AAA" by Standard & Poor's and Fitch rating services. As of September 30, 2013, the largest investment in a single corporate issuer of debt was below 1% of the cost of all fixed income securities. Total investments in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) were 1.12% of the total market value of the total fixed income portfolio. No more than 5% of the market value of the total fixed income portfolio in the Police Officers' Pension Fund may be invested in the securities of any single corporate issuer. Investments in collateralized mortgage obligations are not specifically permitted by the policy. As of September 30, 2013, the largest investment in a single corporate issuer of debt was 1.39% of the value of all corporate fixed income securities. The Police Officers' Pension Fund did not hold any investments in collateralized mortgage obligations as of September 30, 2013. 45 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) Investments (Continued) Concentration Credit Risk (Continued) No more than 5% of the market value of the total fixed income investments may be held in the Firefighters' Pension Fund may be held in any single corporate issuer. Investments in collateralized mortgage obligations are limited to 15% of the market value of the total fixed income portfolio and are restricted to issues backed by securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA), the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC), or the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), or that are rated "Aaa" by Moody's or "AAA" by Standard & Poor's rating services. As of September 30, 2013, the largest investment in a single corporate issuer of debt was 6.97% of the market value of all fixed income securities; the Plan's intent, in compliance with Florida Statutes 112.661(5)(b), is to sell any investments that exceed the policy threshold when it is economically feasible. Total investments in collateralized mortgage obligations were 7% of the total market value of the total fixed income portfolio. The Beal Memorial Cemetery investment policy limits investment concentrations as follows:  Domestic Equities - no more than 5% of the total equity portfolio valued at market may be invested in the equity of any one corporation; ownership of the shares of one company shall not exceed 2% of those outstanding and not more than 25% of equity valued at market may be held in any one sector.  International Equities - no more than 5% of the total equity portfolio valued at market may be invested in the common equity of any one corporation; ownership of the shares of one company shall not exceed 2% of those outstanding and not more than 25% of equity valued at market may be held in any one sector.  Fixed Income Investments - securities of any one issuer shall not exceed 5% of a total bond portfolio at time of purchase. 46 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 3 - DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED) Deposits Held in Florida State Board of Administration's Local Government Investment Pool In addition to the investments subject to credit risk, listed above, the City maintains investments in the Florida State Board of Administration's (SBA) Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Pools, and these deposits are included in the City's pooled cash accounts. At September 30, 2013, the City maintained $105,145 invested in the State Board of Administration’s Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Investment Pool B (Fund B) with a fair value of $119,090. Fund B consists of assets that have defaulted on payment, paid more slowly than expected, and/or were assessed as having significant credit and liquidity risk. Fund B has been "frozen" by the SBA since December 2007, but has distributed portions of the pool to participants since that date. Since December 2007, the City has received $1,652,010 in distributions from Fund B, including $124,530 received during the year ended September 30, 2013. Fund B will continue to distribute funds to all participants as the assets within the Fund are able to be liquidated. The primary goal of the Fund is to make members "whole" and not realize a loss on the investment. Fund B has not received a credit rating by any of the nationally-recognized rating agencies as of September 30, 2013. The City believes that it will not incur a loss on the realizable value of the remaining investments held in the Fund. Due to the nature of securities in Fund B, the interest rate risk information required by GASB 40 is not available. However, an estimate of weighted average life (WAL) is available. In the calculation of WAL, the time at which an expected principal amount is to be received (measured in years) is weighted by the principal amount received at that time divided by the sum of all expected principal payments. The principal amounts used in the WAL calculation are not discounted to present value as they would be in a weighted average duration calculation. The WAL (based on expected future cash flows) of Fund B at September 30, 2013, is estimated at 4.04 years. However, because Fund B consists of restructured or defaulted securities there is considerable uncertainty regarding the weighted average life. The City also maintains $10,417 invested in the SBA's Florida PRIME. The Florida PRIME current credit rating is AAAm by Standard and Poor's. The weighted average to maturity (WAM) of the Florida PRIME at September 30, 2013, is 44 days. Next interest rate reset dates for floating rate securities are used in the calculation of the WAM. 47 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 4 - RECEIVABLES Receivables at September 30, 2013, were as follows: Governmental Activities Community Other Redevelopment Governmental General Fund Funds Total Taxes $ 17,322 $ - $ - $ 17,322 Accounts 96,986 36 109 97,131 Assessments 110,564 - - 110,564 Total receivables $ 224,872 $ 36 $ 109 $ 225,017 Business-Type Activities Other Proprietary Utilities Sanitation Golf Funds Total Accounts $ 588,817 $ 222,476 $ 182 $ 38,399 $ 849,874 Less allowance for doubtful accounts (44,333) (9,408) - (2,692) (56,433) Assessments 18,430 - - - 18,430 Total receivables, net $ 562,914 $ 213,068 $ 182 $ 35,707 $ 811,871 Due from Other Governments The City's receivables from other governments for governmental activities as of September 30, 2013, are $97,007.

In 2011, the City began the next phase of streetscape and pedestrian crosswalk improvements in the downtown area. To date $18,550 has been spent. These projects are funded by the Community Redevelopment Agency. The Department of Transportation’s (DOT) approval of the plans was received in early fiscal year 2014. Construction is projected to begin in 2014, with completion in either late fiscal year 2014 or early 2015. In fiscal year 2012, the City began a project to consolidate four recreation centers into a new recreation complex. Construction began in late 2013, and $735,909 was expended in fiscal year 2013. To date $859,888 has been spent on the complex with an estimated total cost of $8.1 million dollars.

At that time, the City reduced the remaining life of the re-use water filtration system from thirty two years to seventeen years. In fiscal year 2013, it was determined that the re-use water filtration system was no longer viable and it was disposed. The disposal of the re-use water filtration system resulted in an impairment loss in the Utilities Fund of $786,713 for the year ended September 30, 2013.

All general, full-time employees hired on or after January 1, 2010, are members of the Defined Contribution Retirement Plan (Plan). The Plan is a money purchase defined contribution retirement plan administered by ICMA Retirement Corporation, with the City serving as trustee. All funds are held in the ICMA Retirement Corporation Governmental Money Purchase Plan & Trust. The City finance director serves as the coordinator for the Plan. The Plan requires a 5% payroll contribution by the employee with a 5% employer (City) match. Employees can increase their contribution; however, only an additional 2½% is eligible for City match. Members of the General Employees’ Defined Benefit Pension Plan, who were not fully or partially vested at the time the Plan was opened, were permitted to transfer their contributions to the Plan as a one-time, irrevocable election. The authority for establishing and amending the Plan's provisions lies with the City Council. The City Council also has the authority for amending contribution requirements. Contributions made to the Plan by the employees and by the City were $80,841 and $80,841, respectively, for the year ending September 30, 2013. NOTE 9 - DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN The City offers employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457 (Plan). The Plan is a tax-deferred supplemental retirement program that allows City employees to contribute a portion of their salary, before federal income taxes, to a retirement account. The assets are held in trust for the employees’ benefit. The Plan participants individually select and make changes in funding options, which are made available by the independent plan administrator. Since participants select the investment fund or funds in which their deferred compensation accounts are invested, the City has no liability for investment losses. The City’s fiduciary responsibility is to administer the Plan properly and to assure the investment alternatives made available are reasonable. In accordance with GASB Statement No. 32, the assets and liabilities of the Plan are not reflected in the City’s financial statements since the City has no fiduciary responsibilities, other than administrative, in connection with the Plan. Assets of the plan have a fair value of $2,793,835 at September 30, 2013. Contributions made by plan members during the year ended September 30, 2013, were $84,245. 58 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 10 - OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) The following disclosures are represented as of September 30, 2013, the date of the latest actuarial valuation (except for the plan funded status, which is represented as of October 1, 2012): A. Plan Description Pursuant to Section 112.0801, Florida Statutes, the City is mandated to permit eligible retirees (as defined in the City's pension plans) and their eligible dependents to participate in the health insurance program at a cost to the retiree that is no greater than the cost at which coverage is available for active employees. Retirees pay 100% of the blended (active and retiree combined) equivalent premium rates. The blended rates provide an implicit subsidy for retirees because, on an actuarial basis, their current and future claims are expected to result in higher costs to the plan on average than those of active employees. The City provides this benefit to its employees through a single- employer defined benefit plan. The plan does not issue a separate report. B. Funding Policy The City is financing the post employee benefits on a "pay-as-you-go" basis. For fiscal year 2013, 136 retirees and/or dependents received health care benefits. Annual required contributions were $483,101 for the current fiscal year, towards which the City made a contribution of $275,934. Retiree contributions totaled $325,621 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. At September 30, 2013, the City recorded a net OPEB obligation of $598,055 for governmental activities and $268,949 for business- type activities in its government-wide statement of net position. The OPEB obligation is a function of the annual required contribution, interest, adjustments to the annual required contribution, annual pension costs, and actual employers' contributions made to the plan. C. Membership At September 30, 2013, membership consisted of: Retirees and beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 87 Terminated employees entitled to benefits but not receiving them - Active employees 224 Total 311 Participating employers 1 59 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 10 - OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) (CONTINUED) D. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation The City's annual other post employment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution (ARC) of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal costs each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a closed period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows the components of the City's annual OPEB cost for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and changes in the City's net OPEB obligation to the retiree health plan: Annual required contribution $ 483,101 Interest on net OPEB obligation 26,353 Adjustment to annual required contribution (25,339) Annual OPEB cost (expense) total 484,115 Employer contributions (275,934) Increase in net OPEB obligation 208,181 Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year 658,823 Net OPEB obligation - end of year $ 867,004 For the governmental activities, the net other postemployment benefit obligation is generally liquidated by the general fund. The City's annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for the past three years, were as follows: Three-Year Trend Information Net OPEB Annual OPEB City* Percentage Obligation Cost Contributions Contributed (Asset) October 01, 2011 469,170 262,096 55.86 % 446,202 October 01, 2012 490,753 278,132 56.67 % 658,823 October 01, 2013 484,115 275,935 57.00 % 867,004 *Limited to the difference between age-adjusted and composite premiums paid for retirees during the year. 60 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 10 - OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) (CONTINUED) E. Funded Status and Funding Progress As of October 1, 2012, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan funded status was as follows: Actuarial Accrued Annual Actuarial Value of Liability (AAL) Unfunded AAL Funded Ratio Covered UAAL as % Assets (a) Entry Age (b) (UAAL) (b-a) (a/b) Payroll (c) of Payroll $ - $ 5,651,699 $ 5,651,699 - % $ 7,300,258 77.42 % F. Required Supplementary Information The schedule of funding progress immediately 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 liability for benefits. The schedule of employer contributions can also be found in the supplemental information of this comprehensive annual report. The projection of future benefit payments for an ongoing plan involves 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 the 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, presented 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 liabilities for benefits. G. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions 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. Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future. Actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual revision as results are compared to past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The actuarial 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 of assets, consistent with the long- term perspective of the calculations. 61 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 10 - OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB) (CONTINUED) G. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions (Continued) In the latest actuarial valuation as of October 1, 2013, the Individual Entry Age Normal Cost Method (with an increasing Normal Cost pattern consistent with the salary increase assumptions) was used. The actuarial assumptions included a 4% investment rate of return and an annual healthcare costs trend rate of 1.3%, which will be increased to an ultimate rate of 5.42% beginning in fiscal year ending September 30, 2032. The investment rate of return included a 3% inflation assumption. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized in a closed amortization, calculated as a level percent of payroll over a twenty-six year period. NOTE 11 - RISK MANAGEMENT The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; employee medical benefits and natural disasters. The City purchases insurance through commercial carriers. Insurance coverage for workers' compensation, liability, casualty, inland marine, flood, police accidental death, public officials' bonds, fiduciary and fuel tanks were purchased from several commercial carriers during the year ended September 30, 2013. There has been no significant reduction in insurance coverage from the prior year. Commercial insurance coverage has been sufficient to cover all claims made in the prior three fiscal years.

This Statement replaces the requirement of Statement No. 25, Financial Reporting for Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Note Disclosures for Defined Contribution Plans and No. 50, Pension Disclosures, as they relate to pension plans that are administered through trusts or equivalent arrangements that meet certain criteria. This statement enhances note disclosures and required supplemental information (RSI) for both defined benefit and defined contribution pension plans. It also requires the presentation of new information about annual money-weighted rates of return in the notes to the financial statements and in 10 year RSI schedules. The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2013, which requires the City to implement this statement in FY 2013-2014. 74 City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS September 30, 2013 NOTE 21 - GASB PRONOUNCEMENTS ISSUED BUT NOT YET ADOPTED (CONTINUED) In June 2012, the GASB issued GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions - an amendment to Statement No. 27. This Statement enhances the financial reporting by state and local governments for pensions. It also improves information provided by state and local governmental employers about financial support for pensions that is provided by other entities. This statement requires governments providing defined benefit pensions to recognize their long-term obligation for pension benefits as a liability for the first time, and to more comprehensively and comparably measure the annual costs of pension benefits. It also enhances accountability and transparency through revised and new note disclosures and required supplementary information. Management believes GASB Statement No. 68 will have a significant impact on the financial position and changes in net position of the City; however, the amounts are not quantifiable as of the date of this report. The provisions of this Statement are effective for financial statements for periods beginning after June 15, 2014, which requires the City to implement this statement in FY 2014-2015.

The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements described in Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Therefore, some amounts presented in this schedule may differ from amounts presented in, or used in the preparation of, the basic financial statements. 120 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida 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 We have audited, 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, the financial statements of governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as of and for the year ended September 30, 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 3, 2014. Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing our auditing procedures 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 of Fort Walton Beach, Florida'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 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. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's financial statements are free of 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 determination of financial statement amounts. 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. 121 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Internal 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 (Continued) 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. We noted certain matters that we reported to the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida in a separate letter dated March 3, 2014. Fort Walton Beach, Florida March 3, 2014 122 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR STATE PROJECT AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH CHAPTER 10.550, RULES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL Report on Compliance for Each Major State Project We have audited City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the Florida Department of Financial Services' State Projects Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's major state projects for the year ended September 30, 2013. City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's major state projects are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. Management's Responsibility Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its state projects. Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s major state projects based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. 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 Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Those standards and Chapter 10.550 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major state project occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major state project. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida's compliance. Opinion on Each Major State Project In our opinion, City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major state projects for the year ended September 30, 2013. 123 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance for Each Major Project and on Internal Control Over Compliance Required by Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General (Continued) Report on Internal Control Over Compliance Management of City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major state project to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major state project and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with Chapter 10.550, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida’s 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 state project on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or 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 state project 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 state project 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 first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 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 Chapter 10.550. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida MANAGEMENT LETTER We have audited the financial statements of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, and have issued our report thereon dated March 3, 2014. 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, and Chapter 10,550, Rules of the Florida Auditor General. We have issued our Independent Auditor's 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; Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance With Requirements Applicable to Each Major State Project and on Internal Control over Compliance in Accordance with Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Florida Auditor General; and the Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. Disclosures in this report, which are dated March 3, 2014, should be considered in conjunction with this management letter. Additionally, our audit was conducted in accordance with Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General, which govern the conduct of local governmental entity audits performed in the State of Florida. This letter includes the following information, which is not included in the aforementioned auditor's reports or schedules: Section 10.554(1)(i)1., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we determine whether or not corrective actions have been taken to address findings and recommendations made in the preceding annual financial report. Corrective actions have been taken or are in progress to address findings and recommendations made in the preceding annual financial audit report. (please see status under the heading "Prior Year Comments") Section 10.554(1)(i)2, Rules of the Auditor General, requires our audit to include a review of the provisions of Section 218.415, Florida Statutes, regarding the investment of public funds. In connection with our audit, we determined that the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, complied with Section 218.415, Florida Statutes. Section 10.554(1)(i)3., Rules of Auditor General, requires that we address in the management letter any recommendations to improve financial management. In connection with our audit, we did not have any such recommendations. Section 10.554(1)(i)4., Rules of Auditor General, requires that we address noncompliance with provisions of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse, that have occurred, or are likely to have occurred, that have an effect on the financial statements that is less than material but which warrants the attention of those charged with governance. In connection with our audit, we did not have any such findings. Section 10.554(l)(i)5., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that the name or official title and legal authority for the primary government and each component unit of the reporting entity be disclosed in this management letter, unless disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, was established as a municipality by a Special Act of the Florida Legislature in 1937. The City's original charter was enacted as Chapter 18539, Laws of Florida. 126 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Management Letter (Continued) The present charter was enacted in 1953 as Chapter 29093, Laws of Florida. The City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, had one component unit within its reporting entity. The Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency was created pursuant to provisions of Chapter 163, Part III, Florida Statutes. This action, adopted by Resolution Number 77-38, also outlines the rights, powers, duties, privileges, and immunities invested in the governing body. City ordinance 1262, adopted on September 27, 1994, gave the City Council the authority to appoint an independent Board of Commissioners in place of the City Council effective January 1, 1995. During 1992, the Florida Department of Community Affairs determined that the Fort Walton Beach Housing Authority was a dependent special district of the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida. Utilizing the standards set forth in GASB 61, the Fort Walton Beach Housing Authority was not considered as having met sufficient criteria for inclusion within the City's audited financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2013. As a result, the Fort Walton Beach Housing Authority is not included in the City's annual financial report. During 2011, the Fort Walton Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (the Agency) became a blended component unit of the City. The City's council members serve as board members of the Agency. The Agency's governing body is the same as the governing body of the City and the Agency provides services specifically to the Community Redevelopment Area of the City. Due to the nature and significance of the Agency's relationship with the City, exclusion of the Agency's financial operations would render the City's financial statements incomplete or misleading. Section 10.554(1)(i)6,.a., Rules of the Auditor General, requires a statement be included as to whether or not the local government entity has met one or more of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes, and identification of the specific condition(s) met. In connection with our audit, we determined that the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida did not meet any of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes. Section 10.554(1)(i)6.b., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we determine whether the annual financial report for the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, filed with the Florida Department of Financial Services pursuant to Section 218.32(1)(a), Florida Statutes, is in agreement with the annual financial audit report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. In connection with our audit, we determined that these two reports were in agreement. Pursuant to Sections 10.554(1)(i)6.c., and 10.556(7), Rules of the Auditor General, we applied financial condition assessment procedures. It is management's responsibility to monitor the City's financial condition, and our financial condition assessment was based in part on representations made by management and the review of financial information provided by same. Our assessment was performed as of September 30, 2013. 127 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Management Letter (Continued) PRIOR YEAR COMMENTS 2012-MC-01: DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS Prior Year Comment Summarized In June, 2012 the GASB adopted two statements, GASB 67 – Financial Reporting for Pension Plans, an amendment of GASB 25 and GASB 68 – Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, an amendment of GASB 27. The provisions of the Statement 68 will be effective for the year ended September 30, 2015. This statement will require the recognition of the net pension liability in the full accrual financial statements which represents the total pension liability less the fiduciary net position of the pension plan which is currently presented in the supplementary information as the unfunded AAL (Actuarial Accrued Liability). The City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida has funded 100% of the actuarially required contributions of the three defined benefit pension plans over the last ten year period. However the overall funded status of each plan has declined over the same time period. If the City, as the plans' sponsor, were to adopt the provisions of GASB early, the effect is consequential. We recommend the City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida as the plans sponsor review alternatives as it related to the existing benefit structure in an effort to stabilize current and future pension costs and liability while providing benefits that meet the objectives of employees covered by the plans. Status The City Council, acting as the Board of Trustees for the General Employees’ Pension Plan, recently agreed to expand its Investment Policy to allow for a larger diversity in its portfolio and to respond to the changing economic environment. At the fiscal 2013-14 strategic planning session, alternative structures for the Plan will be presented for implementation during the fiscal year 2014-15 budget process. 2012-MC-02: GOLF ENTERPRISE FUND Prior Year Comment Summarized The Golf Fund reported a net loss of approximately $265,000 for the year ended September 30, 2012 and has deficit unrestricted net position of approximately $99,000 at September 30, 2012. The fund generated positive cash flow from operating activities of approximately $110,000 in FY 12; however that is not sufficient to cover the fund’s debt payments to creditors and the advance repayment to the General Fund. We recommended that City management continue to closely monitor the fiscal operations of the Golf Fund. If the fund continues operating at a loss, the City should consider temporarily suspending the repayments of the general fund advance or make additional budget transfers to eliminate the deficit fund balance. Status Effective October 1, 2014, the City opted to combine the Golf Enterprise Fund with the City’s General Fund operations, recognizing that self-sustainability was not a viable option in the Golf Fund’s current state. 128 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Management Letter (Continued) CURRENT YEAR COMMENTS (CONTINUED) 2012-MC-03: ANTI-FRAUD PROGRAM Prior year comment summarized The City maintains a strong ethical culture and positive environment to deter fraud and promote ethical behavior. None the less, fraud can occur in any entity and the City would benefit by formally reviewing its fraud prevention, detection and reaction programs on an annual basis. We recommended City Council and senior management would strengthen its anti-fraud program with the adoption of the following:  Periodic documented fraud risk assessments  A written fraud response plan  Training for City employees on warning signs of fraud and what to do if they suspect fraud is occurring  Implementation of a whistleblower policy Status While there have been no reported incidents of ethics or fraud violations at the City of Fort Walton Beach, the Senior Management team is being proactive in reviewing all policies and procedures and drafting a new Code of Ethics for both City Council and its employees. The City continues to research the various anti-fraud programs throughout the State and is currently implementing a fraud hotline. This will be the first step in the development of an anti-fraud program that is customized to the City of Fort Walton Beach. 2012-MC-04: ENTERPRISE RISK MANAGEMENT Prior year comment summarized The City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida has not formally documented management’s identification of strategic, operational and financial risks and the related monitoring of the risks identified. We recommended documenting enterprise risk assessments as they will provide additional assurances that key business processes have appropriate control activities in place. The assessment and documentation will help management identify control gaps, strengthen existing controls, and remove redundancies where applicable. Status The City recently completed its review of the Hurricane Response Plan and continues to make adjustments and revisions to its Continuity of Operations Plan. Effective with the fiscal year 2013-14 budget, both five- and ten-year replacement programs for Fleet and IT were adopted. 129 Honorable Mayor and City Council Members City of Fort Walton Beach, Florida Management Letter (Continued) Our management letter is intended solely for the information and use of the Legislative Auditing Committee, members of the Florida Senate and the Florida House of Representatives, the Florida Auditor General, and applicable management, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. We greatly appreciate the assistance and cooperation extended us during our audit. Fort Walton Beach, Florida March 3, 2014 130 (THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK.)
