CITY MANAGER

December 15, 2010

The Honorable Council City of Suffolk, Virginia

Dear Council Members:

The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the period of July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010 is hereby submitted. The code of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the City of Suffolk Charter requires an annual financial audit. Responsibility for accuracy of the presented data as well as the completeness and fairness of the CAFR presentation, including the disclosures, rests with the City. Included are the results of operations and cash flows of its proprietary funds as measured by the financial activity of its various funds. The CAFR includes all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the City’s financial affairs.

Consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls when developing and implementing the City’s accounting system. The City is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls designed to ensure that the assets of the City are protected from loss, theft or misuse. The City also ensures that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Internal control is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that first, the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and secondly, the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. We assert to the best of our knowledge this CAFR is complete and reliable in all material aspects.

According to Section 8.08 of the City Charter and Section 15.2-2511of the 1950 Code of Virginia, as amended, an annual audit by an independent auditor of the City finances is required. The City of Suffolk’s financial statements have been audited by Robinson, Farmer, Cox Associates, CPA’s. An independent audit is designed to provide reasonable assurance that financial statements are free of material misstatements and as of June 30, 2010 the CAFR reflects this position. The independent audit involved examining on a statistactical 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. As presented in the financial section, the independent auditor concluded, based on their audit, that there

Page 11: 2010 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

was a reasonable basis for issuing an unqualified opinion on the City of Suffolk’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010. In addition, they felt the financial statements were presented fairly and in conformance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The audit included and was part of a broader federally mandated “Single Audit” designed to meet the special needs of federal grants. The standards governing single audit engagements require the independent auditor to report not only on the fair presentation of the financial statements, but also on the City’s internal control and compliance with legal requirements, with special emphasis on those involving the administration of federal awards. The analysis by the auditors is included in the CAFR under the tab Single Audit Section.

Management, according to the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), is required to provide a narrative, introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements with a Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). The letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A is within the financial section tab following the independent auditor’s opinion.

Profile of the Government

The present City of Suffolk was formed January 1, 1974, from the consolidation of the City of Suffolk and the City of Nansemond (formerly Nansemond County). The City is Virginia’s largest city in land areas and one of the top ten in land area in the nation. The City is situated in the western portion of Hampton Roads, Virginia’s coastal plain area, and is bounded by the James River to the north, the Cities of Chesapeake and Portsmouth to the east, the State of North Carolina to the south, and the Counties of Southampton and Isle of Wight to the west. The City of Suffolk is one of seven major cities that form the Norfolk-Virginia Beach-Newport News metropolitan area with 1.6 million people. It is also known as the Hampton Roads area.

The City’s government is organized under the Council-Manager form of government. The governing body, City Council, is composed of seven members and a Mayor who develop policies for the administration of the City. The Mayor and Council are elected by borough in a city-wide election every other year with terms of office being four years. The City Council appoints a City Manager to act as administrative head of the City. The City Manager serves at the pleasure of City Council and carries out the City Council’s policies, directs business procedures. The City Manager also appoints and removes the directors of all departments and all employees of those departments under his/her control.

The School Board is elected by borough. Under Virginia law all operations of the School Board are completely independent of City Council and the City Administration. City Council is required to make an annual appropriation to the School Board based upon an approved budget, but has no authority to direct how such appropriation is expended.

The City of Suffolk provides a full range of municipal services authorized by statue or charter. This includes education, public safety, highways and streets, parks and recreation, sanitation, health and social services, public improvements, planning and zoning, public utilities, storm water management and general administrative services.

The funds and entities related to the City of Suffolk included in the City’s CAFR are controlled by or dependent on the City. Determination of “controlled by or dependent on” is based on criteria developed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. The criteria deal with existence as an organized entity, governmental character, and substantial autonomy. Based on these criteria, the various funds of the City shown in the Table of Contents are included in this report. Since the School System is fiscally dependent on the City, the financial statements of the Suffolk City School System are included as a component unit of the City in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 14. The Economic Development Authority has also been included as a component unit of the City due to the fiscal relationship which exists for the Northgate Commerce Park, Suffolk Industrial Park, the Hilton Garden Inn Hotel and Suffolk Conference Center, and the Health and Human Services building as well as other initiatives designed to foster economic activity in the City, in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 14. Excluded as a component unit are the Suffolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority, the Western Tidewater Regional Jail Authority, and the Western Tidewater Water Authority which are not controlled by or dependent on the City.

The City maintains budgetary controls, the objective of which is to ensure compliance with the legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by City Council. Budgetary control is maintained at the expenditure level of each department using an encumbrance accounting system. Open encumbrances are reported as reservations of fund balance at June 30, 2010. A description of the procedures utilized to establish budgetary data is presented in the Notes to Required Supplementary Information of this report.

Economic Activity

The City of Suffolk has experienced a strong increase in population and is expected to go through a higher growth rate in the next 20 years than it experienced during the previous two decades, according to the Hampton Roads Planning District Commission. As seen by the chart below by 2034 the population is anticipated to double. Population grew by 58% between 1990 and 2008 and is projected to grow an additional 246% by 2034.

Suffolk is one of the fastest growing cities and is home to some of the fastest growing companies. With easy access to regional highways, international and general aviation airports, and the Port of Virginia, Suffolk has become a prime location for business development. Add in the commitment of strong city leadership and you’ll understand why more than $1 billion in new capital investment, for major new and expanding commercial projects, have taken place

in the community since 2000. As a result, more than 8,400 new jobs have been created. Suffolk is sending the message that we are open for business, for businesses large and small.

Suffolk’s economic viability remains strong due to its well diversified and growing industry base. Concentrated areas for growth in the City include: Warehousing and Distribution, Food Processing, Manufacturing, Hospitality, Retail, Medical Services and Modeling and Simulation. These sectors experienced growth and expansions in calendar year 2009. As a whole in 2009, new and expanding businesses invested more than $112 million in the city, announcing more than 510 new jobs.

Suffolk’s proximity to a skilled workforce and affordable land costs has been an attraction for manufacturing firms searching for new operation locations. During calendar year 2009 we saw this development continue when Cobham Composite Products expanded their operations to Suffolk. A manufacturer of composite parts for the aerospace and defense industry, Cobham leased 72,500 square-feet and will create over 200 new jobs over a five year period. Suffolk’s proximity to the Port of Virginia continues to attract companies in the distribution industry. Houff Logistics started operating from their new 28,000 square-foot facility near Northgate Commerce Park in 2009. They specialize in dry truckload freight distribution along the Mid-Atlantic Region. Northgate 10 was constructed to provide additional space for distribution companies. Northgate 10, a new dock level warehouse was completed providing over 51,000 square-feet of space for future distribution firms. Long-time Suffolk companies, Pepsi, Sysco Foods of Hampton Roads and Supreme Foods all saw expansions in calendar year 2009.

Suffolk is now home to more Modeling and Simulation companies. Northrop Grumman expanded in Suffolk, moving into a new three-story 27,400 square-foot building. The company consolidated employees from three other existing offices throughout the region, as part of this project. Suffolk's Virginia Modeling, Analysis and Simulation Center (VMASC) Accelerator welcomed two new companies to Suffolk, Alelo and Command Post Technologies.

Suffolk also experienced an expansion in the Medical sector giving citizens more variety for quality healthcare. Riverfront Family Medicine and Specialty Care, North Suffolk Family Medicine, and Children's Hospital of the King's Daughters opened practices in Suffolk in 2009. The Obici Healthcare Foundation broke ground on a new 7,000 square-foot facility. The seeds of the Foundation were planted by Amedeo Obici, founder of Planters Peanuts and Louise Obici Hospital. The foundation was established to oversee the funds Amedeo Obici left after his death for healthcare well being in Suffolk and the surrounding area. Calendar year 2009 major new and expanding businesses were as follows:

Suffolk’s industry sectors have had a tremendous amount of growth from new and expanding businesses. Revitalization projects have also continued to flourish in our Downtown for office, business and retail developments. Monument Construction, Stallings & Bischoff and other private developers have contributed to this growth. East Point Plaza and West Washington Lofts transformed six dilapidated structures into highly desirable retail locations in Downtown.

From small business opportunities to multi-million dollar expansions, companies have discovered Suffolk’s affordable land, convenient location, and enthusiastic city support. By managing our residential and commercial development, we continue to offer families and businesses plenty of room to live, work and play.

Long-term Financial Planning

City Council and City Management continue their visionary process in their commitment to planning for the future of the City of Suffolk. Through a series of retreats and work sessions, City Council has established priorities as the guiding principles to move the city into the twenty-first century and to develop partnerships to further the City’s objectives. Financial planning is further extended with the aid of financial advisors for bond issues and rate consultants for utility rate analysis.

In planning for the specific initiatives under these priorities, the City’s adopted ten-year Capital Improvement Plan which represents a planned schedule of the City’s needed expenditures for physical improvements over the next decade. The Capital Improvements Plan which covers the ten-year period from fiscal year 2011 through fiscal year 2020 includes water and sewer projects totaling approximately $794.9 million. Public Utilities Fund is estimated at $284.4 million, the General Fund $504.9 million and the remainder is the Storm Water Fund.

Financial policies are vital in maintaining consistency and focus. One of the financial policies continually reviewed the fund balance levels. The ratio of unassigned General Fund balance as a percentage of budgeted Governmental Funds Expenditures and capital projects fund expenditure plus budgeted plus expenditures in the School Operating and Food Service Funds indicates the ability of the City to cope with unexpected financial challenges or emergencies. The larger the Unassigned General Fund balance, the greater the City’s ability to cope with these potential financial emergencies and fluctuations in revenue cycles. The City has established a target rate of 12% at the close of each fiscal year. At June 30, 2010 the target rate exceeded the target.

Once the Unassigned General Fund balance target is achieved by the City, it is intended to be maintained for the upcoming fiscal year from prior year surpluses and budgeted additions as available before any other needs are addressed. In the event the target percentage falls below 12% due to an emergency or due to severe economic circumstances, the City will develop a plan to restore the Unassigned Fund Balance over a three year period.

Financial policies were developed for the Utility Fund which provided for a written documentation of many of the sound business practices. Categories developed include financial independence, target percentage for unrestricted cash and long term investments, debt service coverage ratios, plus asset replacement and system extension.

In addition, a new policy for post-issuance compliance for tax forward obligations was instituted. This was for adherence to the IRS tax codes as it relates to Build America Bonds.

Awards and Recognition

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

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 Suffolk, Virginia for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009, representing the twenty-sixth consecutive year that the City has received this award.

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) presented a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award to the City of Suffolk, Virginia for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2009.

America’s 100 Best Small Cities to Live for 2010

Suffolk has been named as one of America’s 100 best Small Cities to Live for 2010 by CNN Money Magazine. The magazine compared statistics from 746 U.S. cities with a population of 50,000 to 300,000 to make its rankings. Suffolk placed 91st and was one of only four Virginia cities to make the list. It was also the first time Suffolk had been received this esteemed recognition. Some of the factors considered in the selection included job and housing markets, quality of education, crime rate and overall quality of life including leisure and cultural activities. Learning of the prestigious designation, Mayor Linda Johnson stated, “We were thrilled to learn of Suffolk’s selection by CNN Money Magazine as one of the Top 100 Small Cities in America. We are well aware of Suffolk’s unique and diverse offerings, from its historic downtown and rich farmland to its high-tech corridor and beautiful recreational offerings. It is wonderful that others are learning what we already know: whether it’s to work, live or play…It’s a good time to be in Suffolk.”

Acknowledgments

During the year, the staff of the Finance department rendered professional and knowledgeable services to the City. We are most appreciative of these efforts and take this opportunity to recognize these outstanding public servants. They maintain the accounting records of the City on a current and timely basis and deserve special consideration.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) Government-wide financial statements, 2) Fund financial statements, and 3) Notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements. Government-wide financial statements The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide the readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances in a manner similar to a private-sector business. Government-wide financial reporting consists of two statements: the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities. The statement of net assets presents information on all City assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The statement of activities presents information identifying how net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, some items of revenues and expenses are reported in this statement that will result in cash flows in future fiscal periods. In the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities, the City is divided into the following categories:

Governmental activities – Most of the City’s basic services are reported here including general government, public safety, public works, education, health and welfare, parks and recreation and economic and community development.

Business-type activities – The City’s water and sewer services are reported here as well as the City’s

golf course activity and Stormwater Utilities. These services are supported by charges for services based on use.

Component Units – The City includes two separate legal entities in its report – the Suffolk School

Board and the Economic Development Authority of the City of Suffolk. While legally separate, the City is financially accountable and provides operating and capital funding to these component units.

Fund Financial Statements Fund financial statements are groupings of related accounts that are used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate finance-related legal compliance. Traditional users of government financial statements will find the fund financial statement presentation more familiar. The focus is now on the City’s most significant funds. The fund financial statements are divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds. Governmental funds – Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on current sources and uses of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.

Page 25: 2010 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS: (CONTINUED) Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The City maintains several individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental funds balance sheet and in the governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for the General, Capital Projects and Debt Service funds. Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report. Proprietary Funds – The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its water and sewer operations and the activities of the Stormwater Utility Fund. Internal Service funds are an accounting mechanism used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s various functions. The City uses internal service funds to account for its fleet management, information technology and insurance programs. Fiduciary Funds – The fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is similar to that of the proprietary funds. Notes to the Financial Statements – The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found following the Basic Financial Statements section of this report. Required Supplementary Information – In addition to the basic financial statements and notes, this report also presents budgetary comparison schedules, a schedule of funding progress and employer contributions and notes to the required supplementary information. Other Supplementary Information – This report also presents combining and individual fund statements and schedules.

Statement of Net Assets

(in Millions)

As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of Suffolk, assets exceeded liabilities by $192 million at June 30, 2010. The largest portion of the City’s net assets, 77% and 82% in 2010 and 2009, respectively, represents its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings and improvements, machinery and equipment), net of accumulated depreciation and less any related debt used to acquire or construct those assets that are still outstanding. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending.

The majority of the remaining balance of net assets, 23% and 18% in 2010 and 2009, respectively, represents unrestricted net assets, which may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations. Unrestricted net assets increased both in governmental and business-type activities in FY 10 by $14.9 million and $4.8 million respectively.

This is due to the continued growth of the City’s fleet and its services and services. Community Development increased $1.5 over FY09.

Business-type Activities The business-type activities are made up of Public Utilities and Stormwater Utilities. In 2010, the Golf Course was consolidated into the General Fund due to outsourcing of operations. Charges for services, including water and sewer fees, and Stormwater Utility fees represent 91.8% and 86.4% of total revenues for business-type activities for 2010 and 2009 respectively. Utility revenues increased from $24.8 million in 2009 to $29 million in 2010. Capital contributions total $1.5 million in 2010 compared to $3.8 million in 2009. These contributions represented 11.1% of total revenues for business type activities for 2010. Stormwater expenses decreased from $4.4 million in 2009 to $3 million in 2010.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. Governmental funds. The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. At the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $83.4 million. Approximately 46.7% of this amount is available for spending at the government’s discretion (unassigned fund balance). The remainder of fund balance is committed or restricted to indicate that is not available for new spending because it has already been committed.

General Fund. The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, the general fund balance was $52.5 million of which $42.3 million represents unassigned fund balance of the general fund. As a measure of the general fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balances represents 30% of the total fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 38% of that same amount. The unassigned fund balance of the General Fund is 16.8%, which is calculated as the net of governmental funds minus the School contribution, capital projects, and transfer out. Also added to this calculation is the School operating and the School Food Service fund expenses. This percentage is a key financial policy for the city of which needs to be greater than 10%.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS: (CONTINUED)

General Fund: (Continued) The net increase to fund balance for the general fund for 2010 was $2.7 million. This increase was a result of the continued streamlining of operations throughout the organization by freezing staff positions and holding costs to a minimum. Debt service fund. The debt service fund has a fund balance of $1.0 million. Of this amount $.4 million is restricted for payment to a debt service reserve fund in a future fiscal year as required by the HUD Section 108 loan leaving $.6 million. The General Fund transfers monies to meet debt service requirements. Capital projects fund. The capital projects fund accounts for all construction projects of general public improvements, excluding capital projects related to business-type activities, which are accounted for elsewhere. At the end of the current fiscal year, the fund balance was $19.8 million, of this $13 million was committed for contracts in process, and the balance of $6.8 million was assigned for subsequent years’ projects. During FY10 the City issued general obligation bonds of $3.4 million to finance new public safety equipment and expended $20.7 million on various projects. The City’s top five construction projects consisted of the following in FY10: - $4.9 million in continued construction of the Kings Fork Safety Center. - $3.1 million in continued transportation improvement on Nanesmond Parkway/Shoulders Hill. - $1.2 million in continued transportation improvements throughout the City. - $1.0 million in continued transportation improvements on Route 17. - $0.8 million in continued transportation improvements to the Downtown Connector

At year end the City has $152 million in projects authorized and has expended and committed $114.3 million on these projects, reference details on Exhibit 15.

Proprietary funds. The City’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. The net assets of the proprietary funds at the end of the current fiscal year totaled $171.4 million.

Enterprise funds. The City’s enterprise funds account for its water and sewer operations and stormwater utility efforts. Unrestricted net assets of the enterprise funds were $6.2 million at the end of the current fiscal year. Internal service funds. The internal service funds are used to account for entity-wide fleet management, information technology and insurance programs. The total net assets at the end of the current fiscal year were $21.9 million. Each of the internal service funds finished strong this year with positive changes in net assets.

Trust funds. The City funded $3.3 million in other post employment benefits in the OPEB Trust Fund. The City participates in the Virginia Pooled OPEB Trust Fund.

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS The City’s annual budget, which is prepared on an operating basis, includes estimated revenues and annual appropriations. Differences between the original budget and the final amended budget resulted in a $6.2 million increase in appropriations. Listed below are explanations for significant budgetary variances between the final amended budget and actual results: Revenue from Personal Property was under the budget projections by $0.9 million. This was due to

personal property collections still trying to rebound from the economic downturn. Revenue from the Use of Money category was under the budget projections by $0.3 million. This was

due in large part to a lower returns and interest rates on investments. Categorical Aid revenues were under the budget by $0.3 million. This is due the reductions in funding

received from the State for Constitutional Officers. The Golf Course fund and its assets were transferred into the City’s General fund Budget during the

fiscal year. Economic development expenditures were under budget by $1.5 million. The majority of this figure is

made up of funds for economic development incentives that carry forward from prior years to further this development program on an as needed basis.

The accompanying notes to financial statements are an integral part of this statement.

Internal service funds are used by management to change the costs of certain activities such asinformation technology, fleet management, and insurance to individual funds. The assets andliabilities of the internal service funds are included in the governmental activities in thestatement of net assets.

Interest on long-term debt is not accrued in the governmental funds, but rather is recognizedas an expenditure when due.

Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the current periodand therefore are not reported as liabilities in the governmental funds.

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net assets (Exhibit 1) aredifferent because:

Capital assets used in governmental activities are not current financial resources and thereforeare not reported in the funds.

Deferred revenue represents amounts that were not available to fund current expendituresand therefore are not reported as revenue in the governmental funds.

Other assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and therefore notreported in the governmental funds:

GovernmentalFunds

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are differentbecause:

Net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds $ (6,896,170)

Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement ofactivities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported

as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which the capital outlays exceededdepreciation in the current period. The following details support this adjustment:

Capital outlay $ 18,694,339

Dispositions of capital assets (200,360)

Depreciation expense (8,425,746)

Transfer of joint tenancy assets from Primary Government to the Component Unit (8,756,513) 1,311,720

Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources arenot reported as revenues in the funds. Details of this item consist of:Deferred taxes 532,604

The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, leases) provides current financial resources togovernmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes thecurrent financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has anyeffect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs,premiums, discounts, and similar items the treatment of long-term debt and related items. Asummary of items supporting this adjustment is as follows:

Debt issued or incurred: General obligation bonds $ (34,155,000) Premium on general obligation debt (2,102,918) Deferred amount on refunding 2010 bonds 2,929,170 Principal repayments on debt: Principal retired on general obligation debt 43,142,646 Principal retired on literary fund loans 500,000 Principal retired on Section 108 loan 193,000 Principal retired on notes payable 240,000 10,746,898

Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of currentfinancial resources and, therefore are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.The following is a summary of items supporting this adjustment:

Change in accrued interest payable $ 282,418 Change in compensated absences (337,317) Change in other post employment benefits 209,817 Amortization of premiums on bonds payable 453,930 Amortization of deferred charges (273,777) 335,071

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2010

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The financial statements of the City of Suffolk, Virginia have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as specified by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and the specifications promulgated by the Auditor of Public Accounts (APA) of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The more significant of the government's accounting policies are described below. A. Entity and Services

The City of Suffolk, Virginia (City) was formed on January 1, 1974, by the merger of the former Cities of Suffolk and Nansemond. The City of Nansemond was previously formed by the merger of the County of Nansemond and the Towns of Whaleyville and Holland. The City is a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia operating under the council-manager form of government. The elected seven-member City Council, vested with legislative powers, appoints the City Manager who is the executive and administrative head of the City’s government.

The City provides a full range of services to include the following: public safety (police and fire), education, community development (planning and zoning), water treatment and distribution, sewage collection, refuse collection, maintenance of highways, streets and infrastructure, stormwater management, recreational activities including a golf course, cultural events, social services, and library among other services.

B. Financial Reporting Entity

The City’s Basic Financial Statements include all funds, agencies, boards, commissions, authorities and other governmental organizations for which the City has financial accountability. Financial accountability includes the appointment of a voting majority of the organization’s governing body and the ability of the Primary Government to impose its will on the organization or if there is a financial benefit/burden relationship. Also, an organization that is fiscally dependent on the Primary Government should be included in its reporting entity.

These financial statements include the City of Suffolk, Virginia (the Primary Government) and its Component Units. The Component Units discussed below are included in the City’s reporting entity because of the significance of the operational or financial relationship with the City.

Blended Component Units - Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the government’s operations and so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. The City has no blended component units.

Discretely Presented Component Units - Discretely presented component units are reported separate from the primary government to emphasize that they are legally separate from the City. The following organizations have been included in the reporting entity as a discretely presented component unit: City of Suffolk Public Schools The City of Suffolk Public Schools (School Board) is responsible for elementary and secondary education within the City. The Schools are fiscally dependent upon the City because the City Council approves the annual budget of the Schools, levies the necessary taxes to finance the Schools’ operations and approves the borrowing of money.

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED) B. Financial Reporting Entity: (Continued)

City of Suffolk Public Schools: (Continued) The School Board has one discretely presented component unit, the Pruden Center for Industry and Technology (The Center). The Center is a vocational and technical center used by both the Suffolk City Schools and the Isle of Wight County Schools to provide classes to high school students and adults in various occupational trades. The Center is dependent upon the Suffolk School Board for a majority of its funding. The Center is shown as a discretely presented component unit as it is legally separate from the School Board. Separate audited financial statements may be obtained from the Pruden Center by contacting the Pruden Center for Industry and Technology, 4169 Pruden Blvd., Suffolk, Virginia 23434. The School Board does not issue separate financial statements. The following funds are included in the School Board: School Operating Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to the operation of the City of Suffolk Public Schools. Revenues are derived from the City’s General Fund and from state and federal funds. School Food Service Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to the operation of school cafeterias. Revenues are derived from state and federal funds and cafeteria sales. School Grants Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to grants received by the school system from federal and state governments. OPEB Trust Fund – accounts for activities of the School Board's other post-employment benefits (OPEB). This fund accumulates resources for health insurance for retired employees.

Combined School Activity Funds – accounts for additions and deductions of the various activity funds of each of the Suffolk public schools. Revenues are derived from school fundraisers, athletic and state event receipts and School Board allocations.

The Pruden Center for Industry and Technology Component Unit – Accounts for revenues and expenditures relating to operation of The Pruden Center for Industry and Technology operated jointly by Suffolk Public Schools and Isle of Wight County Public Schools. Revenues are derived primarily from local appropriations.

Economic Development Authority

The Economic Development Authority of the City of Suffolk (EDA) was established under the Industrial Development and Revenue Bond Act – Code of Virginia. A separate board appointed by the City Council governs the EDA. The EDA is authorized to acquire, own, lease and dispose of properties and to conduct related activities to promote industry and develop trade by inducing manufacturing, industrial, governmental and commercial enterprises to locate or to remain in the City. The City makes significant contributions to the EDA relating to the property the EDA develops and markets.

Other related organizations not included in the financial statements: Western Tidewater Water Authority

The Western Tidewater Water Authority (Water Authority) was created March 18, 1998, by the City Council of the City of Suffolk, Virginia and the Board of Supervisors of the County of Isle of Wight, Virginia pursuant to the Virginia Water and Sewer Authorities Act, Chapter 51, Title 15.2, Code of Virginia.

The Water Authority was formed for the purpose of acquiring, financing, constructing, leasing, operating and maintaining facilities for the production, impoundment, treatment and transmission of potable and non-potable water. Those facilities may include, but not be limited to, sources of water supply, water intakes, reservoirs, filtration and purification plants, pumping stations, transmission lines, storage facilities and all other facilities deemed appropriate for fulfilling the purpose of the Water Authority together with all appurtenant equipment and appliances necessary or suitable therefore, and all properties, rights, easements or franchises relating thereto and deemed necessary, convenient or appropriate by the Water Authority for its operation.

Separate financial statements are available from the Suffolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority and can be obtained by contacting the Executive Director at 530 E. Pinner Street, Suffolk, Virginia 23434.

C. Government-wide and Fund Accounting Financial Statements

The basic financial statements include both government-wide (based on the City as a whole) and fund financial statements. The focus is on either the City as a whole or major individual funds (within the fund financial statements). The government-wide financial statements categorize primary activities as either governmental or business-type. In the government-wide Statement of Net Assets, both the governmental and business-type activities columns are (a) presented on a consolidated basis by column, and (b) are reflected on a full accrual, economic resource basis, which incorporates long-term assets and receivables as well as long-term debt and obligations. Each presentation provides valuable information that can be analyzed and compared (between years and between governments) to enhance the usefulness of the information. The City generally first uses restricted assets for expenses incurred for which both restricted and unrestricted assets are available. The City may defer the use of restricted assets based on a review of the specific transaction.

The government-wide Statement of Activities is reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting which reflects both the gross and net cost per functional category (public safety, public works, health and welfare, etc.), which are otherwise being supported by general government revenues (property, sales and use taxes, certain intergovernmental revenues, fines, permits and charges, etc.) The Statement of Activities reduces gross expenses (including depreciation) by related program revenues, which include fees and charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, operating and capital grants, and contributions. The program revenues must be directly associated with the function (public safety, public works, health and welfare, etc.) or a business-type activity. 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, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operation or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported as general revenues. The City does not allocate indirect expenses. The operating grants include operating-specific and discretionary (either operating or capital) grants while the capital grants column reflects capital-specific grants. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues.

Generally the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the City’s government-wide financial statements for internal service funds. Exceptions to our general rule are payments-in-lieu of taxes where the amounts are equivalent to interfund services provided and other charges between the government’s proprietary funds and various other functions of government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2010 (Continued)

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

C. Government-wide and Fund Accounting Financial Statements: (Continued)

Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989 generally are followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following subsequent private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation. The City has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.

The governmental funds major fund statements in the fund financial statements are presented on a current financial resource measurement focus and modified accrual basis of accounting. This is the manner in which these funds are normally budgeted. Since the governmental fund statements are presented on a different measurement focus and basis of accounting than the government-wide statements’ governmental column, a reconciliation is presented which briefly explains the adjustments necessary to reconcile funds based on financial statements with the governmental column of the government-wide presentation.

The City’s fiduciary funds are presented in the fund financial statements by type. Since by definition these assets are being held for the benefit of a third party and cannot be used to address activities or obligations of the government, these funds are not incorporated into the government-wide statements.

The focus of the basic financial statements is on the City as a whole and the fund financial statements, including the major individual funds of the governmental and business-type categories, as well as the fiduciary funds, (by category) and the component units. Each presentation provides valuable information that can be analyzed and compared (between years and between governments) to enhance the usefulness of the information.

In the fund financial statements, financial transactions and accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds. The operation of each fund is considered to be an independent fiscal and separate accounting entity, with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and/or 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.

The focus of governmental and proprietary fund financial statements is on major funds. Fund statements present the financial information of each major fund in a separate column. Nonmajor funds are aggregated and displayed in a single column.

The main operating fund, the general fund, is always reported as a major fund. Other individual governmental and enterprise funds are reported in separate columns as major funds based on these criteria:

a. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the fund are at least 10% of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or type (that is, total governmental or total enterprise funds), and

b. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the fund are at least 5% of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined.

In addition to funds that meet the major fund criteria, any other governmental or enterprise fund that management believes is particularly important to financial statement users may be reported as a major fund.

C. Government-wide and Fund Accounting Financial Statements: (Continued)

Governmental Funds

Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions typically are financed. The City presents the following major governmental funds:

General Fund - The General Fund is primary operating fund of the City which accounts for all financial resources accounted for in another fund. Revenues are derived primarily from property and other local taxes, state and federal distributions, licenses, permits, charges for services, and interest income. A significant part of the General Fund’s revenues is transferred to other funds and component units, principally to finance the operations of the City of Suffolk Public Schools.

Capital Projects Fund - The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditures for capital outlays, except for those financed by proprietary funds or for assets held in trust for individuals, private organizations, or other governments.

Debt Service Fund - The Debt Service Fund is used to account for financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest related costs as well as the financial resources being accumulated for future debt service. The City presents the following nonmajor governmental funds:

Special Revenue Funds The Special Revenue Funds account for proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects. Suffolk Taxing District Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to services provided in the Suffolk Taxing District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Suffolk Taxing District. Downtown Business Overlay District – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to services provided in the Downtown Business Overlay District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Downtown Business Overlay District.

C. Government-wide and Fund Accounting Financial Statements: (Continued)

Special Revenue Funds: (Continued) Route 17 Taxing District Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to services provided in the Route 17 Taxing District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Route 17 Taxing District.

Mosquito Taxing District Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to mosquito spraying services provided in the Mosquito Taxing District. Most revenues are derived from a specific percentage of the annual real estate tax assessments in the Mosquito Taxing District. Cemetery Fund – accounts for monies received from the sale of burial sites, lots and mausoleum sites, the revenue from which is to be applied to the perpetual care of the City’s cemeteries. Proprietary Funds

Proprietary Funds are used to account for activities that are similar to those often found in the private sector. All assets, liabilities, equities, revenues, expenses, and transfers relating to the primary government’s business activities are accounted for through proprietary funds. The measurement focus is on the determination of net income, financial position, and cash flows. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating revenues and expenses. 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 proprietary funds are charges for services. Operating expenses include cost of sales and services, personnel, contractual services, and depreciation. The City has chosen not to implement private sector guidance issued after November 30, 1989 in reporting activities of the proprietary funds. Enterprise Funds

The Enterprise Funds account for operations that are financed in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent is that costs of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges.

The City presents the following major enterprise fund: Utility Fund – accounts for the provision of water and sewer services to City residents. All activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operation, maintenance, billing, collections, financing and related debt service and capital assets of the water and sewage systems. The City presents the following nonmajor enterprise fund: Stormwater Utility Fund - accounts for the maintenance and improvements to the City's stormwater infrastructure.

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

C. Government-wide and Fund Accounting Financial Statements: (Continued)

The City presents the following other fund types: Internal Service Funds

The Internal Service Funds account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department to other departments or agencies of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis. The Internal Service Funds are included in governmental activities for government-wide reporting purposes. The excess revenue or expenses of the funds are allocated to the appropriate functional activity.

Information Technology Fund – accounts for the City's technology infrastructure and allocates costs to the various departments or agencies using the service.

Fleet Management Fund – accounts for, on a cost-reimbursement basis, the financing of vehicles and the related maintenance, repairs and fuel costs of the City and allocates operating costs to the various departments or agencies using the equipment. Risk Management Fund – accounts for the funding and payment of auto, personal liability, general liability, health insurance, and workers’ compensation claims against the City exclusive of the School Board employees. Charges to other funds are based on estimated claims for the year. Fiduciary Funds

Fiduciary Funds are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. Fiduciary funds are not included in the government-wide financial statements. OPEB Trust Fund – accounts for activities of the City's other post-employment benefits (OPEB). This fund accumulates resources for health insurance for retired employees.

Agency Funds

Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of the results of operations. In addition to the Funds listed below, the Suffolk Public School Combined School Activity Funds are also agency funds. Special Welfare Fund – accounts for receipt of welfare checks and foster children support checks from the state and payments made on behalf of individuals. Commonwealth of Virginia Fund – accounts for monies collected by the City on behalf of the Commonwealth of Virginia.

D. Basis of Accounting

The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using the current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet in the funds statements. Long-term assets and long-term liabilities are included in the government-wide statements. Operating statements of the governmental funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.

The government-wide statements of net assets and statements of activities, and proprietary funds, are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of these activities are either included on the statement of net assets or on the statement of fiduciary net assets. Proprietary fund-type operating statements present increases (e.g., revenues) and decreases (e.g., expenses) in net total assets. The fund financial statements of the Governmental Funds (for the primary government and component units) are maintained and reported on the modified accrual basis of accounting using the current financial resources measurement focus. Under this method of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in which they become measurable and available. With respect to real and personal property tax revenue and other local taxes, the term “available” is limited to collection within forty-five days of the fiscal year-end. Levies made prior to the fiscal year-end but which are not available are deferred. Interest income is recorded as earned. Federal and State reimbursement-type grants are recorded as revenue when related eligible expenditures are incurred. Expenditures, other than accrued interest on long-term debt, are recorded when the fund liability is incurred.

E. Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability

The provisions of the Code of Virginia shall control the preparation, consideration, adoption and execution of the budget of the City. The City Charter requires the budget to be balanced with planned expenditures equal to revenue estimates. The City will prepare and annually update a long range (5 year) financial forecast model utilizing trend indicators and projections of annual operating revenues, expenditures, capital improvements and related debt service and operating costs as well as fund balance levels. The City Manager through the Budget and Finance Department will exercise appropriate fiscal management as necessary as necessary to live within the limits of the adopted budget. 1. Budgeting Information

The City utilizes the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the basic financial statements:

− At least 60 days prior to June 30, the City Manager submits to City Council a proposed operating

budget for the fiscal year commencing the following July 1. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.

− The budget is formulated from estimates of revenues and expected expenditures from each

department. The School Board is treated as a single expenditure line item.

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

E. Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability: (Continued)

1. Budgeting Information: (Continued)

− The City Manager submits the proposed budget to City Council, and recommends an appropriation ordinance and an ordinance levying the tax rates for the ensuing year.

− City Council then holds public hearings on the proposed budget. Notice of such public hearing

must appear in a local newspaper not less than seven days prior to the hearing. − The budget must be approved by a majority vote of City Council and legally adopted before July

1. If City Council does not adopt the proposed budget before July 1, the budget as submitted is automatically adopted.

− Additional appropriations may be made by City Council only if there is an unencumbered fund

balance or additional funding becomes available. Supplemental budget appropriations were approved during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 for the following funds: General Fund, Consolidated Grants, Road Maintenance, Law Library, Capital Projects, Utility Fund, Stormwater Utility Fund, Information Technology Fund, and Fleet Management Fund.

Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device. Annual operating budgets are adopted by ordinance passed by City Council for the General Fund, the Debt Service Fund, the Utility Fund, Stormwater Utility Fund, the Internal Service Funds and the following Special Revenue Funds: Route 17 Tax District, Downtown Business Overlay District, Road Maintenance and Law Library. Annual operating budgets are also adopted for the School Operating, School Food Service and School Grants funds.

Budgets for proprietary fund types are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. The General, Special Revenue and Debt Service Funds' budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Beginning fund balances for budgetary basis presentation purposes are adjusted for the carry-forward or prior year encumbrances. According to City Code, unexpended and unencumbered appropriations lapse at June 30 of each year. Appropriations that are encumbered at June 30 are carried forward into the following year's appropriations to allow for liquidation of the encumbrances.

Individual grants and projects included in the Consolidated Grants Fund and Capital Projects Fund, are budgeted separate from the operating budget. These appropriations do not parallel the City's fiscal year and the accounting, encumbering and controlling of the funds are based upon the length of each individual grant or project, which may be more than one year.

3. Fund Deficit

There were no funds with deficit balances at June 30, 2010. F. Deposits and Investments

For purposes of reporting cash flows for proprietary-type funds, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, money market funds, certificates of deposit and investments with maturities of three months or less. State statutes authorize the City government and the School Board to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, commercial paper, corporate bonds, repurchase agreements, the Local Government Investment Pool and State Non-Arbitrage Pool. Investments for the government, as well as for its component units, are reported at fair value. No investments are valued at cost. The Local Government Investment Pool operates in accordance with appropriate state laws and regulations. The reported value of the pool is the same as the fair value of the pool shares.

Interest income on investments is allocated to the appropriate funds based upon the average monthly cash balance of each fund. Interest income is accrued as earned. Restricted Cash and Payables from Restricted Cash - Restricted cash in the various funds consists of developer bonds and various other deposits and unspent bond proceeds as disclosed in Note 3. Payables from restricted assets in the fleet management fund will be paid from these capital lease proceeds.

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED) G. Receivables and Payables

Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as “due to" or "due from" other funds” (i.e. the current portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as “due to/from other funds.” Allowances for Uncollectible Accounts

The City calculates its allowances for uncollectibles on property taxes and utility service charges using historical collection data. The receivables shown on the Statement of Net Assets are presented net of the following allowances for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 2010:

Fund

General Fund – Taxes receivable $ 2,117,066 Nonmajor Funds – Taxes receivable 41,115 Utility Fund – Accounts receivable 138,208 Nonmajor Proprietary Funds – Fees receivable 66,516

Total $ 2,362,905

Property Taxes - Property taxes are levied as of January 1 for personal property and as of July 1 for real estate, based on the assessed value of real and personal property as of the date. The City's legal right to collect property taxes attaches each year when the rates are approved and the taxes are assessed. Real estate taxes are collectible twice a year, on June 5 and December 5. Personal property taxes are due on December 5. Amounts not collected within 45 days after year-end are reflected as deferred revenue.

Levy date July 1 January 1Due date and collection date June 5 and December 5 December 5Lien date for delinquent taxes 3 years from due date Various

H. Inventories and Prepaid Items

Inventories of materials and supplies in the governmental and proprietary fund types are recorded at cost. The cost of inventory is recorded as an expenditure at the time individual inventory items are consumed (consumption method) on a first-in, first-out basis.

Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements.

I. Capital Assets

Capital outlays are recorded as expenditures of the governmental funds and as assets in the government-wide financial statements to the extent the City’s capitalization threshold is met.

Property, plant, equipment and infrastructure capital outlays of the Primary Government as well as the component units are recorded as capital assets and depreciated over their estimated useful lives on a straight-line basis on both the fund’s basis and the government-wide basis. Interest expense is capitalized on proprietary fund type assets. The amount of interest expense capitalized is calculated by offsetting interest expense incurred from the date of the borrowing until completion of the project against interest income earned on invested proceeds over the same period. Interest capitalized during 2010 totaled $2,287,976. The City’s capitalization policy threshold is $5,000. All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual cost was not available. Donated assets are valued at their estimated fair market value on the date donated. Assets acquired under capital leases are capitalized at the net present value of all lease payments, and related amortization expense is included with depreciation expense.

The estimated useful lives of capital assets are as follows:

Years

Buildings 40Improvements other than buildings 15-75Machinery and equipment 3-50Infrastructure 25-50

Maintenance, repairs, and minor equipment are charged to operations when incurred. Expenditures that materially change capacities or extend useful lives are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement of land, buildings, and equipment, the cost and related accumulated depreciation, if applicable, are eliminated from the respective accounts and any resulting gain or loss is included in the results of operations. Capital assets having historical significance and being maintained by the City are not expected to decrease in value and, therefore, are not being depreciated.

J. Deferred/Unearned Revenue

Deferred revenue in the governmental fund types consists of revenues that are measurable but not available for use during the current period. Property taxes receivable at June 30 but not collected within 45 days after that date are reported as deferred revenue in the financial statements. Unearned revenues consist of amounts prepaid and not yet earned.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2010 (Continued)

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED) K. Compensated Absences

City employees are granted vacation and sick pay in varying amounts based on years of service. Employees may accumulate, subject to certain limitations, unused vacation and sick pay earned and, upon retirement, termination, or death, may be compensated for certain amounts at specified rates. The cost of accumulated vacation and sick pay expected to be paid from future expendable resources is accounted for as a liability in the government-wide statements and proprietary fund statements. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary financial statements. For governmental fund types, the amount of accumulated unpaid vacation leave which is payable from available resources is recorded as a liability of the respective fund only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee retirement or resignation. For City proprietary funds, the cost of vacation and sick leave is recorded as a liability when earned.

L. Long-term Obligations

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. 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 while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.

M. Fund Balance

Financial Policies

The City’s Finance Committee has been established by Council to implement and establish various financial policies. The Committee meets on a monthly basis to manage and review cash financial activities to insure compliance the established policies. Members of the Committee include those individuals stipulated by ordinance adopted by City Council. It is the City’s policy to fund current expenditures with current revenues and the City’s mission is to strive to maintain a diversified and stable revenue stream to protect the government from problematic fluctuations in any single revenue source and provide stability to ongoing services. The City’s unassigned General Fund balance will be maintained to provide the City with sufficient working capital and a margin of safety to address local and regional emergencies without borrowing. The City has elected to early implement GASB 54 for the current year for its governmental funds. Fund balances are reported according to the following categories:

Nonspendable fund balance – Includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form, or, for legal or contractual reasons, must be kept intact. This classification includes inventories, prepaid amounts, assets held for sale, and long-term receivables

48

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2010 (Continued)

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED) M. Fund Balance: (Continued)

Restricted fund balance – Restricted funds are either externally imposed (such as debt covenants, grantor, contributors or other governments) or are imposed by law (constitutionally or enabling legislation).

Committed fund balance – The City’s Committed Funds require formal action of the City Council either by resolution or ordinance that identifies the specific circumstances under which there resources may be expended.

Assigned fund balance – Amounts that are constrained by the City’s expressed intent to use resources for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Intent can be stipulated by the governing body, anther body (such as the Finance Committee), or by an official to whom that authority has been given. With the exception of the General Fund, this is the residual fund balance of the classification for all governmental funds with positive balances.

Unassigned fund balance – This is the residual classification of the General Fund. Only the General Fund can report a positive “unassigned fund balance”. Other governmental funds might report a negative balance in this classification. Unassigned general fund balance - The ratio of Unassigned General Fund balance as a percentage of Budgeted Governmental Funds Expenditures (net of the General Fund Contribution to Schools, transfer to other Governmental Funds, and Capital Projects Fund Expenditures) plus budgeted expenditures in the School Operating and Food Service Funds indicates the ability of the City to cope with unexpected financial problems or emergencies. The larger the Unassigned General Fund balance, the greater the City’s ability to cope with financial emergencies and fluctuations in revenue cycles. The City has established a target rate of 12% at the close of each fiscal year as computed on the upcoming budget year. Once the Unassigned General Fund Balance target is achieved by the City, it is intended to be maintained for the upcoming fiscal year from prior year surpluses and budgeted additions as available before any other needs are addressed. In the event Unassigned Fund Balance is required to be drawn below the 12% target rate due to an emergency (such as a natural disaster) or due to severe economic circumstances, the City will develop a plan to restore the Unassigned Fund Balance over the ensuing two to three years. The General Fund has the following amounts committed and assigned at June 30, 2010:

Function Commited Assigned

General government administration $ 39,359 $ - Judicial administration 47,480 119,901 Public safety 112,965 903,127 Public works 98,076 14,688 Health and welfare 242,133 207,495 Parks, recreation, and cultural 22,466 17,939 Community development 22,996 1,722,900

NOTE 1−SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

N. Net Assets

Net assets represent the difference between assets and liabilities. Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt, consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowings used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt excludes unspent debt proceeds. Net assets are reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use either through the enabling legislation adopted by the City or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments. The City first applies restricted resources when an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net assets are available.

O. Retirement Plan Retirement plan contributions are actuarially determined and consist of current service costs and amortization of prior service costs over a 30-year period. The City's policy is to fund pension cost as it accrues.

P. Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenditures/expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities for the reported periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates and assumptions.

Q. Component Unit-School Board Capital Asset and Debt Presentation

By law, the School Board does not have taxing authority and, therefore, it cannot incur debt through general obligation bonds to fund the acquisition, construction or improvement of its capital assets. That responsibility lies with the City who issues the debt on behalf of the School Board. However, the Code of Virginia requires the School Board to hold title to the capital assets (buildings and equipment) due to their responsibility for maintaining the assets. In the Statement of Net Assets, this scenario presents a dilemma for the City. Debt issued on behalf of the School Board is reported as a liability of the primary government, thereby reducing the net assets of the City. The corresponding capital assets are reported as assets of the Component Unit-School Board (title holder), thereby increasing its net assets.

The Virginia General Assembly amended the Code of Virginia to allow a tenancy in common with the School Board whenever the locality incurs a financial obligation which is payable over more than one fiscal year for any school property. The tenancy in common terminates when the associated debt has been paid in full. For financial reporting purposes, the legislation permits the locality to report the portion of the school property related to any outstanding financial obligation, thus eliminating a potential deficit from financing capital assets with debt.

R. Comparative Data/reclassifications

Certain amounts presented in the prior year data have been reclassified in order to be consistent with the current year’s presentation.

S. Credit Risk

The assessed value of real estate and personal property for the City’s ten largest taxpayers comprises 3.86% and 6.00% of the City’s real estate and personal property tax base, respectively. Concentration of credit risk with respect to receivables is limited due to the large number of citizens comprising the City’s taxpayer base.

NOTE 2−DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS: The City maintains a cash and investment pool for all funds except the Economic Development Authority. The cash and investments of the Economic Development Authority’s funds are held separately from other City funds and the Treasurer of the City of Suffolk is not accountable for these funds. Each fund’s portion of the pool is reported in the balance sheet as cash and cash equivalents and/or restricted assets. Deposits All cash of the City and Component Unit School Board is maintained in accounts collateralized in accordance with the Virginia Security for Public Deposits Act, Section 2.2-4400 et. seq. of the Code of Virginia or covered by federal depository insurance. The City Treasurer’s policy for deposits and investments applies to both the City and the School Board. The policy refers to relevant state statutes identifying allowable types of investments, which are deemed to be high quality. The state statutes specify the following minimum levels of credit ratings: A-1 or P-1 for commercial paper and certificates of deposit, AA or Aa for corporate notes, and AAA for asset-backed securities. The Treasurer’s policy emphasizes the use of securities of high credit quality and marketability, and follows state statute, but does not specify minimum credit ratings. Credit Risk of Debt Securities Credit risk is the risk an investor is subject to as a result of the credit quality of investments in debt securities. The City’s rated debt investments as of June 30, 2010 were rated by Standard & Poor’s and the ratings are presented below using Standard & Poor’s rating scale.

NOTE 8−LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS: (CONTINUED) School Board Long-Term Liabilities Following is a summary of changes in noncurrent liabilities of the School Board and its component unit for the year ended June 30, 2010:

Balance Balance CurrentJuly 1, 2009 Additions Reductions June 30, 2010 Portion

Compensated absences:School Board $ 2,052,220 $ 435,086 $ 571,575 $ 1,915,731 $ 217,785

General Obligation Debt Limit The Commonwealth of Virginia imposes a legal limit of 10% of the assessed valuation of taxable real property on the amount of general obligation borrowing which may be outstanding by the City. The City of Suffolk has independently set a lower debt limit of 4% of the assessed valuation. As of June 30, 2010 the City's aggregated general obligation indebtedness is approximately $422 million less that the City's limit and $695 million less that the Commonwealth's limit as summarized in statistical table number 13. The City was in compliance with all significant financial covenants contained in the various bond indentures at June 30, 2010. The City does not have overlapping debt at June 30, 2010. In prior years, the City defeased certain general obligation and other bonds by placing the proceeds of new bonds in an irrevocable trust to provide for all future debt service payments on the old bonds. Accordingly, the trust account assets and the liability for the defeased bonds are not included in the City’s financial statements. At June 30, 2010, $18,140,000 of bonds outstanding are considered defeased. On June 16, 2010 the City issued $4,945,000 in VRA Water and Sewer Bonds in the Virginia Pooled Financing Program to advance refund $5,205,000 Water and Sewer Bonds Series 2001 on October 1, 2026 through April 1, 2031. This refunding reduced debt service payments by $667,664. A premium was received in the amount of $479,906 and issuance costs totaled $109,499 reflecting a net loss on refunding of $110,407. On April 27, 2010 the City issued $34,155,000 Series 2010 New Money ($3,450,000) and Refunding Bonds ($30,705,000) with an effective interest rate of 3.3%. The refunded bonds are summarized as follows:

NOTE 8−LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS: (CONTINUED) General Obligation Debt Limit: (Continued) The 2010 bonds will be repaid in various installments beginning August 1, 2011 to August 1, 2033. As a result the above bonds are considered to be defeased in substance and the liability for those bonds has been removed from these financial statements. The City received premiums in the total amount of $2,102,918 as part of this bond issue. The re-acquision price exceeded the carrying amount of the old debt by $1,130,179. These advance refundings were undertaken to reduce the total debt service payments over the next 20 years by $1,237,249 and resulted in an economic gain (difference between the present value of the old and new debt service payments ) of $982,272. Arbitrage Rebate Management has calculated its estimated arbitrage rebate liability relating to the City's various bond issues in accordance with Internal Revenue Service regulations. Internal Revenue Service regulations require the City to remit the rebate to the United States Treasury once every five years. At June 30, 2010, the City did not have an estimated rebate liability. Bonds Authorized and Unissued Bonded debt authorized by City Council in previous years but unissued as of June 30, 2010, totals $57,380,739. NOTE 9−DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN: A. Plan Description Name of Plan: Virginia Retirement System (VRS) Identification of Plan: Agent and Cost-Sharing Multiple-Employer Defined Benefit Pension Plan Administering Entity: Virginia Retirement System (System)

All full-time, salaried permanent employees of participating employers must participate in the VRS. Benefits vest after five years of service. Employees are eligible for an unreduced retirement benefit at age 65 with 5 years of service (age 60 for participating law enforcement officers, firefighters, and sheriffs) or at age 50 with at least 30 years of service if elected by the employer (age 50 with at least 25 years for participating local law enforcement officers, firefighters, and sheriffs) payable monthly for life in an amount equal to 1.7 percent of their average final compensation (AFC) for each year of credited service (1.85% to sheriffs and if the employer elects, to other employees in hazardous duty positions receiving enhanced benefits). Benefits are actuarially reduced for retirees who retire prior to becoming eligible for full retirement benefits. In addition, retirees qualify for annual cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) beginning in their second year of retirement. The COLA is limited to 5% per year. AFC is defined as the highest consecutive 36 months of reported compensation. Participating local law enforcement officers, firefighters, and sheriffs may receive a monthly benefit supplement if they retire prior to age 65. The VRS also provides death and disability benefits. Title 51.1 of the Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, assigns the authority to establish and amend benefit provisions to the General Assembly of Virginia.

NOTE 9−DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN: (CONTINUED) A. Plan Description: (Continued)

The System issues a publicly available comprehensive annual financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for VRS. A copy of that report may be downloaded from their website at http://www.varetire.org/Pdf/publications/2009-Annual-Report.pdf or obtained by writing to the System's Chief Financial Officer at P.O. Box 2500, Richmond, VA 23218-2500.

B. Funding Policy

Plan members are required by Title 51.1 of the Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, to contribute 5% of their annual salary to the VRS. This 5% member contribution may be assumed by the employer. In addition, the City and School Board are required to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to fund participation in the VRS using the actuarial basis specified by the Code of Virginia and approved by the VRS Board of Trustees. The City's and School's non-professional employees contribution rates for the fiscal year ended 2010 were 9.22% and 7.08% of annual covered payroll, respectively. The School Board’s contributions for professional employees were $8,229,751, $10,175,482, and $6,170,650 to the teacher cost-sharing pool for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2010, 2009 and 2008, respectively and these contributions represented 8.81%, 8.81% and 8.30%, respectively, of current covered payroll.

C. Annual Pension Cost For fiscal year 2010, the City’s annual pension cost of $4,817,023 was equal to the City’s required and actual contributions.

NOTE 9−DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN: (CONTINUED)

C. Annual Pension Cost: (Continued)

The required contribution was determined as part of the June 30, 2009 actuarial valuation using the entry age actuarial cost method. The actuarial assumptions at June 30, 2009 included (a) 7.50% investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses), (b) projected salary increases ranging from 3.75% to 5.60% per year for general government employees and 3.50% to 4.75% for employees eligible for enhanced benefits available to law enforcement officers, firefighters, and sheriffs, and (c) a cost of living adjustment of 2.50% per year. Both the investment rate of return and the projected salary increases include an inflation component of 2.50%. The actuarial value of the City’s and the City School Board’s assets is equal to the modified market value of assets. This method uses techniques that smooth the effects of short-term volatility in the market value of assets over a five-year period. The City’s, School Board's unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized as a level percentage of projected payroll on an open basis. The remaining amortization period at June 30, 2007 was 20 years.

D. Funded Status and Funding Progress As of June 30, 2009, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City’s plan was 81.20% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $181,382,891, and the actuarial value of assets was $147,279,719, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $34,103,172. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $52,462,203 and ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 65.1%. As of June 30, 2009 the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City School Board’s plan was 91.20% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $17,857,433, and the actuarial value of assets was $16,285,337, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $1,572,096. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $7,212,065 and ratio of UAAL to the covered payroll was 21.80%. The schedule of funding progress, presented as Required Supplementary Information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.

NOTE 11−CONTINGENT LIABILITIES AND COMMITMENTS: Litigation At year end there are two lawsuits against the School Board involving negligence in connection with mold contamination of a school building which collectively total $9M. The suits allege the School Board had untrained school personnel performing mold sample collection and remediation by application of bleach and other biocides which caused undue harm to two individuals. These cases were filed in state court but have been removed to federal court and the court has not ruled at this time. These lawsuits are not covered by any policy of insurance and it is not known whether or not damages, if any, will be awarded. Other claims and lawsuits are pending against the City and School Board. In the opinion of the City and School Board attorneys, resolution of these cases will not involve a significant liability to the City or the School Board. Federally Assisted Grant Programs The City participates in a number of federally assisted grant programs. Although the City has been audited in accordance with the provisions of OMB Circular A-133, these programs remain subject to financial and compliance audits by the grantors or their representatives. Such audits could lead to requests for reimbursements to the grantor agency for expenditures disallowed under terms of the grant. Based on prior experience, City management believes such disallowances, if any, will not be significant. Construction Commitments The City has authorized expenditures for capital additions and construction of various governmental and utility capital projects. At June 30, 2010, projects expected to be completed at various dates through 2010 had a total unexpended balance of $12,986,435 (governmental) and $11,857,580 (utility). Contingency The City currently has been notified by a taxpayer that is may be requesting the manufacturing exemption for the Business Professional Occupancy License taxes for the years 2007 to 2009 which total $1,066,513. At the date of this report this evaluation is on-going.

NOTE 12−LANDFILL POST CLOSURE CARE COSTS: State and Federal laws and regulations require that the City of Suffolk perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions subsequent to closure of the City’s landfill site. The City ceased accepting solid waste at the landfill in 1984 and completed initial closure measures in 1995. The City’s ten-year post closure period began in 1995 and has been extended. The estimated post closure cost is $581,200. This cost estimate includes site maintenance, water quality testing, and applicable methane gas monitoring measures, leachate collection and disposal. The total current cost of landfill closure and post closure care is an estimate and subject to changes resulting from inflation, deflation, technology, or changes in applicable laws or regulations. The City has expended $326,041 through fiscal year 2010. It is estimated that the remaining $255,159 will be recognized as post closure care expenses between June 30, 2010, and the date post closure care requirements expire.

NOTE 15−TRUST FOR OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS: The City of Suffolk has established a irrevocable trust pursuant to Section 15.2-1544 of the Code of Virginia, as amended for the purpose of accumulated and investing assets to fund Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) and to participate in the Virginia Pooled OPEB Trust Fund and has established a Local Finance Board to become a Participating Employer in the Trust Fund. The Trust Fund provides administrative, custodial and investment services to the Participating Employers in the Trust Fund. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2010 the City contributed $3,014,322 and the School Board contributed $1,411,000 to the Trust Fund. Expenses allocated to the Trust Fund during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2010 totaled $6,320 for the City and $3,825 for the School Board. The Trust Fund issues a separate report, which can be obtained by requesting a copy from the plan administrator, Virginia Municipal League (“VML”) at P.O. Box 12164, Richmond, Virginia 23241. NOTE 16−OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS PROGRAM: City: A. Plan Description

The City Post-Retirement Medical Plan (CPRMP) is a single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan which offers health insurance for retired employees. Retired employees, who were enrolled in the City group health insurance plan for the 24 month prior to retirement date, who were employed by City with at least 20 years of service and who retire under the VRS plan are eligible to elect post-retirement coverage in the CPRMP. Retirees pay 100 % of spousal premiums. Coverage ceases when retirees reach the age of 65. Surviving spouses are not allowed access to the plan. The plan is administered by the City and the City has no separate financial report.

B. Funding Policy

The City establishes employer contribution rates for plan participants as part of the budgetary process each year. The City determines how the plan will be funded each year whether it will partially fund or fully fund the plan. For participating retirees the City pays $195 per month towards the monthly premium and the retiree contributes remaining funds towards the monthly premium.

C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 45, an actuarial study was performed calculating the postemployment healthcare costs as of June 30, 2010. The actuarial valuation estimated the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (“UAAL”) at $19,264,318 and an Annual Required Contribution (“ARC”) of $3,014,322. The annual cost of other post employment benefits (OPEB) under GASB 45 is the Annual Required Contribution (ARC). The City paid $661,766 towards the estimated pay as you go cost for OPEB benefits in fiscal year 2010, and in addition contributed $3,014,322 to a Trust Fund to fully fund the ARC. The City elected to pre-fund OPEB liabilities. The City is contributing the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC) an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The thirty year amortization period is open.

NOTE 16−OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS PROGRAM: C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation: (Continued)

For 2010, the City’s cash payment of $3,372,436 was more than the annual pension costs. The City’s annual OPEB cost, the contributions made, and the decrease in net OPEB obligation as well as the net OPEB obligation for 2010 are as follows:

Annual required contribution $ 3,014,322 Interest on net OPEB obligation (24,913) Adjustment to annual required contribution 28,126 Annual OPEB cost (expense) $ 3,017,535 Contributions made (3,372,436) Increase (decrease) in net OPEB obligation $ (354,901) Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year (332,175) Net OPEB obligation - end of year $ (687,076)

Information reflecting annual pension cost, amounts contributed as well as the percentage contributed for the past three fiscal years is as follows:

Funded Status and Funding Progress The schedule of funding progress, presented as Required Supplementary Information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve 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 revisions as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. As of July 1, 2010 the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City’s plan was 29.54% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $27,341,308, and the actuarial value of assets was $8,076,990, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability UAAL of $19,264,318. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $58,766,577, and the ratio of UAAL to the covered payroll was 32.78%.

NOTE 16−OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS PROGRAM: (CONTINUED) City: (Continued) C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation: (Continued)

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 the plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The 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. Cost Method The projected unit credit (PUC) cost method was used for this valuation. The objective of this method is to fund each participant’s benefits under the plan as they would accrue. Under this method the total value of the benefit to which each participant is expected to become entitled is broken down into units, each associated with a year of past or future credited service.

NOTE 16−OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS PROGRAM: (CONTINUED) School Board: (Continued) A. Plan Description: (Continued)

The School Board participates in the Virginia Pooled OPEB Trust Fund (“Trust Fund”), an irrevocable trust established for the purpose of accumulating assets to fund postemployment benefits other than pensions. The Trust Fund issues a separate report, which can be obtained by requesting a copy from the plan administrator, Virginia Municipal League (“VML”) at P.O. Box 12164, Richmond, Virginia 23241.

B. Funding Policy

The School Board establishes benefit levels, employee contributions and employer contribution rates for plan participants as part of the budgetary process each year. The School Board determines how the plan will be funded each year whether it will partially fund the plan or fully fund the plan. For participating retirees the School Board pays $203 per month towards the monthly premium and the retiree contributes remaining funds towards the monthly premium.

C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 45, an actuarial study was performed calculating the postemployment healthcare costs as of June 30, 2010. The actuarial valuation estimated the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (“UAAL”) at $12,806,424 and an Annual Required Contribution (“ARC”) of $2,214,000. The annual cost of other post employment benefits (OPEB) under GASB 45 is called the annual required contribution or ARC. The School Board paid $945,000 towards the estimated pay as you go cost for OPEB benefits in fiscal year 2010, and in addition contributed $1,269,000 to a Trust Fund to fully fund the ARC. The School Board elected to pre-fund OPEB liabilities. The School Board is required to contribute the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC) an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The thirty year amortization period is open.

Annual OPEB Cost

For 2010, the School Board’s expected cash payment of $2,214,000 is equal to the ARC. The School Board’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for 2010 are as follows:

Annual required contribution $ 2,214,000 Interest on net OPEB obligation - Adjustment to annual required contribution - Annual OPEB cost (expense) $ 2,214,000 Contributions made (2,214,000) Increase (decrease) in net OPEB obligation $ - Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year - Net OPEB obligation - end of year $ -

(1) The City is not a component of any overlapping governments; therefore, it does not share any overlapping tax rates nor debt.

(2) Real property is assessed at 100% of estimated actual value, except land use property which approximates 30%.

(3) Vehicles are assessed at 100% of average loan value.

(4) Assessed at 20% of original cost during the first five years of life; 10% thereafter.

(5) The district tax rates include the City-wide rate. Additionally, districts overlap some properties, resulting in those properties being

taxed at the City rate plus the additional rate for each applicable district. Therefore, only the City-wide rate is used with the personal

property rate to calculate the Minimum Total Direct Rate.

(6) In Fiscal Year 2008, the Suffolk Taxing District and Mosquito Control District supplemental taxes were not assessed because the

City instituted a city-wide mosquito control program and incorporated the fees associated with those services into the storm water

utility fee.

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements

Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards To the Honorable Members of the City Council City of Suffolk Suffolk, Virginia We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Suffolk, Virginia as of and for the year ended June 30, 2010, which collectively comprise the City of Suffolk, Virginia’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated November 8, 2010. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the Specifications for Audits of Counties, Cities, and Towns, issued by the Auditor of Public Accounts of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Suffolk, Virginia's internal control over financial reporting 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’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Suffolk, Virginia's internal control over financial reporting. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the County’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.

167

Page 199: 2010 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report

Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Suffolk, Virginia'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. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council, management, and federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Report on Compliance with Requirements that Could Have a Direct and Material Effect on Each Major Program and on Internal Control

Over Compliance in Accordance with OMB Circular A-133 To the Honorable Members of the City Council City of Suffolk Suffolk, Virginia Compliance We have audited the City of Suffolk, Virginia’s compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2010. The City of Suffolk, Virginia's major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is the responsibility of the City of Suffolk, Virginia's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City of Suffolk, Virginia's compliance based on our audit. 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 OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 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 federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City of Suffolk, Virginia'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. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of City of Suffolk, Virginia's compliance with those requirements. In our opinion, the City of Suffolk, Virginia complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2010. Internal Control Over Compliance The management of the City of Suffolk, Virginia is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Suffolk, Virginia's internal control over compliance with the requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance, 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 the City’s internal control over compliance.

Internal Control Over Compliance: (Continued) A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. 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 deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. This report is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council, management, and others within the entity, federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
