ROBINSON, FARMER, COX ASSOCIATESA PROFESSIONAL LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Independent Auditors' Report

To the Honorable Members of the City Council City of Suffolk Suffolk, Virginia

We have audited the accompanying 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, 2009, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements, as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City of Suffolk, Virginia’s management. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the Specifications for Audits of Counties, Cities, and Towns, issued by the Auditor of Public Accounts of the Commonwealth of Virginia; and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Suffolk, Virginia, as of June 30, 2009, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 2, 2009, on our consideration of the City of Suffolk, Virginia’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

The Management’s Discussion and Analysis and required supplementary information as listed in the table of contents, are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Suffolk, Virginia's basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, supporting schedules and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements of the City of Suffolk, Virginia. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, supporting schedules and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards as listed in the table of contents have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

At the close of the fiscal year, the assets of the City exceeded its liabilities by $365.2 million (total net assets – government-wide), an $7.8 million decrease from fiscal year 2008 due to a reduction of capital assets.

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.

4

Page 29: 2009 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 three 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, the City’s golf course activity 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 $365.2 million at June 30, 2009. The largest portion of the City’s net assets, 82% and 84% in 2009 and 2008, 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, 18% and 16% in 2009 and 2008, 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 09 by $3.8 million and $1.4 million respectively.

Source: Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports 2000 2009

The City’s assessed value of real property increased by 1% for the current fiscal year.

The City is committed to ensuring the highest level of safety for its citizens and has expended $36.3 million towards public safety efforts, representing 18.1% and 22.2% of total governmental activities expenses for 2009 and 2008 respectively.

Education continues to be one of the City’s highest priorities and commitments representing 38.8% and 25.7% in 2009 and 2008 respectively of total governmental activity expenses. The increase in FY09 is due to the transfer of assets to the School Board, specifically the completion of the Hillpoint Elementary school. In addition, state and federal support for the schools budget provided an additional $7.0 million over the prior year.

Public Works increased $2.7 million over FY08. This is due to the department acquiring the fleet department and services.

Community Development increased $1.5 over FY08. This is due to the payments made to the Economic Development Authority under the Economic Development Investment Program.

The Change in Net Assets and Excess Revenues are reflective of the transfer of Hillpoint Elementary school to Suffolk Public Schools.

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, unreserved 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 $91.8 million. Approximately 40.7% of this amount is available for spending at the government’s discretion (unreserved fund balance). The remainder of fund balance is reserved or designated 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 $51.2 million of which $37.3 million represents undesignated fund balance of the general fund. As a measure of the general fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unreserved fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unreserved fund balances represents 27% of the total fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 37% of that same amount. The unreserved fund balance of the General Fund is 15.08%, 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 2009 was $3.1 million. This increase was a result of streamlining operations throughout the organization by freezing staff positions, holding costs to a minimum, and revenues were received as projected.

Debt service fund. The debt service fund has a fund balance of $.7 million. Of this amount $.3 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 $.4 million. During the current fiscal year, the fund balance decreased slightly ($.2 million). The General Fund continues to transfer 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 $30.5 million, of this $11.2 million was encumbered for contracts in process, and the balance of $19.3 million was designated for subsequent years’ expenditures. During FY09 the City issued general obligation bonds of $16.6 million to finance various projects and expended $20.6 million on various projects. The City’s top five construction projects consisted of the following in FY09:

- $3.2 million in continued construction of Hillpoint elementary school. Construction was completed in September 2008.

- $3.6 million in continued construction of a new police administrative building. Construction was completed in May 2009.

- $2.9 million in continued construction of the East Suffolk Complex. Construction was completed in March 2009.

- $1.1 million in continued transportation improvements on Route 17. - $1.4 million in construction of the Kings Fork Safety Center.

At year end the City has $151 million in projects authorized and has expended and committed $104.6 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 $174.2 million.

Enterprise funds. The City’s enterprise funds account for its water and sewer operations as well as the City’s golf course and stormwater utility efforts. Unrestricted net assets of the enterprise funds were $2.9 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 $22.0 million. Each of the internal service funds finished strong this year with positive changes in net assets.

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 $6.0 million increase in appropriations.

Listed below are explanations for significant budgetary variances between the final amended budget and actual results:

Revenue from the Use of Money category was under the budget projects by $1.7 million. This was due in large part to a lower returns and interest rates on investments.

Miscellaneous revenues were under the budget by $2.1 million. This is due the second anticipated installment of the Obici property sale. The project never materialized and the budget was never amended.

Non-departmental expenditures were under budget by $2.6 million. This is due in large part to the $2.3 million contribution to the Other Post-Employment Benefits Fund (OPEB).

Economic development expenditures were under budget by $2.2 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 City’s outstanding debt is significantly below both limitations representing the City’s conservative debt borrowing policy.

Subsequent to the end of the current fiscal year, the City issued $16.6 million in general obligation debt in support of general government activities.

The City maintains bond ratings on general obligation debt of “Aa3”, “AA” and “AA-“ from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch respectively.

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 activitiessuch as information technology, fleet management, and insurance to individual funds.The assets and liabilities of the internal service funds are included in the governmentalactivities in the statement of net assets.

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

Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the currentperiod and 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 andtherefore are not reported in the funds.

Deferred revenue represents amounts that were not available to fund currentexpenditures and 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:

Reconciliation of Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of Activities Year Ended June 30, 2009

PrimaryGovernment

GovernmentalFunds

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

Net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds $ 5,702,151

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

Capital outlay $ (547,043) Depreciation expense (7,941,670) Transfer of joint tenancy assets from Primary Government to the Component Unit (9,369,727) (17,858,440)

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 425,447

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 $ (16,600,000) Principal repayments on debt: Principal retired on general obligation debt 12,734,737 Principal retired on literary fund loans 500,000 Principal retired on Section 108 loan 193,000 Principal retired on notes payable 240,000 (2,932,263)

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 $ (79,581) Change in compensated absenses (188,564) Change in other post employment benefits 2,049 Amortization of premiums on bonds payable 247,746 Amortization of deferred charges (130,283) (148,633)

6,408,821

Change in net assets of governmental activities $ (8,402,917)

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

Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities such asinformation technology, fleet management, and insurance to individual funds. The netrevenue of certain internal service funds is reported with governmental activities.

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2009

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.

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2009 (Continued)

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. Separate audited financial statements may be obtained from the EDA by contacting the Executive Director, City of Suffolk Economic Development Authority, 127 E.

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. The City is not obligated to pay the principal or interest on notes or any other liabilities of the Authority and has no financial interest in the Authority.

Separate financial statements are available from the Western Tidewater Water Authority and can be obtained by contacting the Treasurer at P.O. Box 80, Isle of Wight, Virginia 23397.

Western Tidewater Regional Jail Authority

The Western Tidewater Regional Jail Authority (Jail Authority) was created as a political subdivision of the Commonwealth of Virginia jointly through an agreement dated November 1, 1989, among the Cities of Suffolk (59.3%) and Franklin (6.8%), and the County of Isle of Wight (33.9%) (the member jurisdictions) under the Jail Authorities Act, Code of the Commonwealth of Virginia. The Jail Authority has the responsibility to finance the acquisition, construction, equipping and maintenance of a regional jail facility to operate for the benefit of the member jurisdictions.

Notes issued by the Jail Authority are limited obligations payable solely from revenues received from the member jurisdictions. The City is not obligated to pay the principal or interest on the notes or any other liabilities of the Authority and has no financial interest in the Authority beyond its initial contribution to the Authority.

Separate financial statements are available from the Western Tidewater Regional Jail Authority and can be obtained by contacting the Superintendent at 2402 Godwin Blvd., Suffolk, Virginia 23434.

City Council is responsible for appointing members of the Board of the Suffolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority, but the City’s accountability does not extend beyond making such appointments. Suffolk Redevelopment and Housing Authority does not have a significant operational or financial relationship with the City.

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 cots and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.

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 the primary operating fund of the City. This fund is used to account for all financial transactions and resources except those required to be 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 to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities (other than those financed by proprietary fund types).

Debt Service Fund - The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of, general long-term debt principal, interest and related costs.

The City presents the following nonmajor governmental funds:

Special Revenue Funds

The Special Revenue Funds account for revenue derived from specific sources (other than major capital projects) that are restricted by legal and regulatory provisions to finance specific activities.

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.

Road Maintenance Fund – accounts for revenue and expenditures related to maintaining roads city wide. Revenues will be derived from the state and sale of service to other funds.

Consolidated Grants Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures involving governmental grant programs.

Transit System Fund – accounts for the operation of a transit system in the City of Suffolk. A portion of the revenue is derived from charges for services. The majority of the revenues are derived from General Fund appropriations and grants.

Law Library Fund – accounts for the maintenance of a law library. Revenue is derived from court fees.

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.

Law Enforcement Block Grant – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to the Law Enforcement Block Grant. Revenues are derived from a federal grant.

Wireless E-911 Fund – accounts for revenues and expenditures related to developing and implementing the technology for wireless E-911. Surcharges are paid into a Commonwealth of Virginia wireless 911 fund and then distributed to counties and cities that operate public safety answering points and to service providers to defray capital assets and operating expenses incurred in providing service to wireless E-911 calls.

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 funds:

Golf Course Fund – accounts for the development and maintenance of the Municipal Golf Course activities.

Stormwater Utility Fund - accounts for the maintenance and improvements to the City's stormwater infrastructure.

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 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

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.

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.

E. Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability: (Continued)

1. Budgeting Information: (Continued)

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, 2008 for the following funds: General Fund, Consolidated Grants, Road Maintenance, Suffolk Taxing District, Capital Projects, Utility Fund, Golf Course 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, the Internal Service Funds and the following Special Revenue Funds: Route 17 Tax District, Downtown Business Overlay District, Suffolk Taxing District, Road Maintenance, Transit System, 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, Law Enforcement Block Grant Fund, Wireless E-911 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.

2. Excess Expenditures of Appropriations

Expenditures did not exceed appropriations in any funds for the year ended June 30, 2009.

3. Fund Deficit

The following fund had a deficit balance at June 30, 2009:

Golf Course Fund $ 1,739,857

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.

F. Deposits and Investments: (Continued)

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.

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, 2009:

Fund

General Fund – Taxes receivable $ 1,937,876Nonmajor Funds – Taxes receivable 9,639Utility Fund – Accounts receivable 128,029Nonmajor Proprietary Funds – Fees receivable 66,217

G. Receivables and Payables: (Continued)

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.

Real Property Personal Property

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 FY 09 totaled $2,770,339.

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.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2009 (Continued)

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

I. Capital Assets: (Continued)

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.

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.

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2009 (Continued)

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (CONTINUED)

L. Long-term Obligations: (Continued)

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 Equity

In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for amounts that are not available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties for use for a specific purpose. Designations of fund balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change.

The governmental fund types classify fund balances as follows:

Reserved Fund Balances

Reserved for grant compliance represents state and federal grant funds received in advance of use.

Reserved for encumbrances represents the portion of fund balance available to pay for commitments related to purchase orders or contracts which remain unperformed at year-end.

Reserved for inventories represent the portion of fund balance that is not available for appropriation because it represents the year-end fund balance of ending inventories, which are not expendable, available resources.

Reserved for workers compensation claims represents the portion of fund balance in which funds received from the various School Board departments for workers compensation claims which have not yet been required for payment of claims.

Reserved for health insurance claims represents the portion of fund balance in which funds received from employees School Board Department's health insurance claims which have not yet been required for payment of claims.

Unreserved Fund Balances

Designated for other specific projects represents the portion of fund balance identified for specific uses in the governmental funds.

Undesignated represents the portion of total fund balance available for appropriation that is uncommitted at year-end.

CITY OF SUFFOLK, VIRGINIA

Notes to Financial Statements As of June 30, 2009 (Continued)

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 Codeof 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 4.69% and 0.21% 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, 2009 were rated by Standard & Poor’s and the ratings are presented below using Standard & Poor’s rating scale.

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, 2009:

Balance Balance CurrentJuly 1, 2008 Additions Reductions June 30, 2009 Portion

Compensated absences:School Board $ 1,844,678 $ 642,811 $ 435,269 $ 2,052,220 $ 67,858

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 7% of the assessed valuation. As of June 30, 2009 the City's aggregated general obligation indebtedness is approximately $404 million less that the City's limit and $678 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, 2009. The City does not have overlapping debt at June 30, 2009.

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, 2009, $26,605,000 of bonds outstanding are considered defeased.

On June 17, 2009 the City issued $10,200,000 in Water and Sewer Revenue bonds to advance refund $10,215,000 Water and Sewer Bonds Series 2001 on April 1, 2011 through April 1, 2026. This refunding reduced debt service payments by $926,907. A premium was received in the amount of $754,088 and issuance costs totaled $160,135 reflecting a net loss of refunding of $578,953.

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, 2009, 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, 2009, totals $44,875,739.

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.

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/2007AnnuRept.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 2009 were 9.22% and 12.08% of annual covered payroll, respectively.

The School Board’s contributions for professional employees were $10,175,482, $6,170,650, and $4,077,444 to the teacher cost-sharing pool for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2009, 2008 and 2007, respectively and these contributions represented 13.81%, 15.30% and 9.20%, respectively, of current covered payroll.

C. Annual Pension Cost

For fiscal year 2009, the City’s annual pension cost of $4,730,739 was equal to the City’s required and actual contributions.

For fiscal year 2009, the City School Board’s annual pension cost for the Board’s non-professional employees was $837,098 which was equal to the Board’s required and actual contributions.

Trend information for the City and School Board

The required contribution was determined as part of the June 30, 2008 actuarial valuation using the entry age actuarial cost method. The actuarial assumptions at June 30, 2008 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, 2008, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City’s plan was 84.61% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $168,516,668, and the actuarial value of assets was $142,580,456, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $25,936,212. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $50,262,100 and ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 51.60%.

As of June 30, 2008 the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City School Board’s plan was 93.50% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $16,575,497, and the actuarial value of assets was $15,498,806, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $1,076,691. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $6,776,948 and ratio of UAAL to the covered payroll was 15.89%.

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.

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, 2009, projects expected to be completed at various dates through 2009 had a total unexpended balance of $18,976,201(governmental) and $12,159,295(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.

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.

City:

A. Plan Description

The City Post-Retirement Medical Plan is a single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan which offers health insurance for retired employees.

B. Funding Policy

The City establishes employer contribution rates for plan participants as part of the budgetary process each year. The City also determines how the plan will be funded each year whether it will partially fund the plan or fully fund the plan. Again this is determined annually as part of the budgetary process. For participating retirees the City pays $167 per month towards the monthly premium and the retiree contributes remaining funds towards the monthly premium.

C. Annual Required Contribution (ARC)

In accordance with GASB Statement No. 45, an actuarial study was performed calculating the postemployment healthcare costs as of July 1, 2007. The actuarial valuation estimated the Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (“UAAL”) at $15,080,528 and an Annual Required Contribution (“ARC”) of $2,323,275. The annual cost of other post employment benefits (OPEB) under GASB 45 is called the annual required contribution or ARC. The City paid $480,000 towards the estimated pay as you go cost for OPEB benefits in fiscal year 2009, and in addition contributed $2,323,275 to a Trust Fund to fully fund the ARC. The City elected to pre-fund OPEB liabilities. The City 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.

Annual OPEB Cost

For 2009, the City’s expected cash payment of $2,803,275 was more than the annual pension costs. The City’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for 2009 are as follows:

PercentageAnnual of Annual Net

Fiscal Pension OPEB Cost PensionYear Ended Cost Contributed Obligation

June 30, 2009 $ 2,801,226 100% $ 209,817June 30, 2008 2,802,627 93% 211,866

Funded Status and Funding Progress

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.

The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $17,403,803, and the actuarial value of assets was $4,723,275, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability UAAL of $15,080,528. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $57,292,676, and the ratio of UAAL to the covered payroll was 26.32%.

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

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.

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 June 30, 2009 the School Board’s plan was 13.24% funded. The actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $19,052,547, and the actuarial value of assets was $2,714,000, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability UAAL of $17,783,547. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $59,163,327, and the ratio of UAAL to the covered payroll was 30.06%.

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

Cost Method

The entry age normal cost method is used to determine the Plan’s liabilities and costs. Under this cost method, the actuarial present value of projected benefits of every active Participant as if the Plan’s provisions on the valuation date had always been in effect, is determined as a level percentage of expected annual earnings for each future year of expected service. A normal cost for each year from the assumed entry date is determined by applying this level of percentage of pay to the assumed earnings for that year (or if benefits are not pay related, the level amount for each year).

Under this method, inactive participants have no normal cost, and their actuarial liability is the present value of the plan benefits to which they and their beneficiaries are entitled. The Plan’s total annual normal cost and actuarial liability are the sum of the individual participant amounts.

An experience gain or loss is a decrease or increase in the unfunded actuarial liability attributable to actual experience that differed from that expected by the actuarial assumptions. Such gains or losses are explicitly recognized under this method.

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, 2009, which collectively comprise the City of Suffolk, Virginia’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated November 2, 2009. 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 control deficiency 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 misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the City's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the City’s financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the City’s internal control.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the City’s internal control.

Our consideration of the 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.

Page 210: 2009 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.

We noted certain matters that we reported to management of the City of Suffolk, Virginia in a separate letter dated November 2, 2009.

This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the City Council, 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 Applicable to 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 compliance of the City of Suffolk, Virginia with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2009. 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 are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2009.

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 control deficiency in an entity's internal control over compliance 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 noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the City’s ability to administer a federal program such that there is more than a remote likelihood that noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the City’s internal control.

A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented or detected by the City’s internal control.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance 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 compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
