INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Honorable Mayor Randy Casale Members of the City Council City of Beacon, New York One Municipal Plaza Beacon, New York 12508 We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Beacon, New York, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity s internal control. 1

Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Beacon, New York, as of December 31, 2015, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter Regarding Change in Accounting Principle As described in Note N to the financial statements, in 2015, the City adopted new accounting guidance, GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, an amendment of GASB Statement 2. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison information, Other Post- Employment Benefit Plan Schedule of Funding Progress, Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability, and the Schedule of Pension Contributions, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. 2

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 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 Honorable Mayor Randy Casale Members of the City Council City of Beacon, New York One Municipal Plaza Beacon, New York 12508 We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Beacon, New York, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City of Beacon, New York s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated August 18, 2016. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of Beacon, New York s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Beacon, New York s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Beacon, New York s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. 4

Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Beacon, New York s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the 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 have reported certain other matters, Finding 1, which we are bringing to the attention of management. City of Beacon, New York, Response to findings The City of Beacon, New York s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings, recommendations and responses. The City of Beacon, New York s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and accordingly, we express no opinion on it. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Vanacore, DeBenedictus, DiGovanni & Weddell, CPA s Limited Liability Partnership Poughkeepsie, New York August 18, 2016 5

CITY OF BEACON New York Office of the City Administrator Anthony J. Ruggiero, M.P.A. 845-838-5000 City Administrator www.cityofbeacon.org Management s Discussion and Analysis Required Supplemental Information For the Year Ended December 31, 2015 (Cont d.) Un-audited In the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities, we divide the City into two kinds of activities: Governmental activities Most of the City s basic services are reported here, including the police, fire, public works, and parks departments, and general administration. Property taxes, franchise fees, and state and federal grants finance most of these activities. Business-type activities The City charges a fee to customers to help it cover all or most of the cost of certain services it provides. The City s water and sewer system are reported here. Reporting the City s Most Significant Funds Our analysis of the City s major funds begins on page 12. The fund financial statements begin on page 23 and provide detailed information about the most significant funds not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law. However, the City Council established other funds to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain grants, and other money (like grants received from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development). The City s two kinds of funds governmental and proprietary use different accounting approaches. Governmental funds Most of the City s basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus on how money flows into and out of those funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. These funds are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City s general government operations and the basic services it provides. Governmental fund information helps you determine whether there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City s programs. We describe the relationship (or differences) between governmental activities (reported in the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities) and governmental funds in reconciliation at the bottom of the fund financial statements.

CITY OF BEACON New York Office of the City Administrator Anthony J. Ruggiero, M.P.A. 845-838-5000 City Administrator www.cityofbeacon.org GOVERNMENTAL ACTIVITIES Management s Discussion and Analysis Required Supplemental Information For the Year Ended December 31, 2015 (Cont d.) Un-audited The City s Governmental Activities Statement of Net Position reflects an overall increase of approximately $6.2 million in assets and $4.6 million increase in liabilities. The changes that caused this are discussed below. Currently, the City has $27 million in Bond anticipation notes (BANs) outstanding. Of the notes, $13 million are for General Fund purposes and $14 million of these notes were issued for water and sewer purposes. These projects are individually accounted for in the City s Capital projects fund until completed and then transferred to the appropriate fund as fixed assets. For financial statement purposes water and sewer related BANs are reclassed from the Capital projects fund (included in the Governmental Activities) to the Water and Sewer funds (Business-Type Activities) with the use of internal balances. The Governmental Activities shows a cash balance $21 million. This is a combination of General Fund Cash of $9.5 million and Capital projects cash of $11.3 million. The Capital cash is a result of unspent monies for projects currently underway. General fund related projects (roads, sidewalks, buildings, highway & public safety equipment) made with the BAN are reflected in the increase to fixed asset of $5.3 million which is net of depreciation. The City added $2.9 million in road and sidewalk improvements, $2.3 million or work towards a new DPW facility and 500K for a municipal parking lot. Other additions to assets were public safety equipment budgeted for in operations and also obtained thorough state and federal grants. Bonds payable increased $269K as a result of $2 million in new debt issued and $818K of principal payments on short-term debt. Annual long-term debt principal payments amounted to $1.4 million. The liabilities also showed an increase of more than $2.2 million in the post-employment benefits obligation. This change is primarily due to the fact that there is an annual increase in our obligation and it remains unfunded at this point. New York State General Municipal Law Article 2 does not currently permit funding to be used against OPEB obligations.

With the adoption of the 2015 budget, the City appropriated $400,000 of the fund balance and increased the tax levy $183,876 and managed to stay under the 2% tax cap. Due to conservative budget practices, unanticipated revenues and conservative spending in all departments allowed the City to end the year with a surplus of $1,790,703.

Specific results to note were revenues received in excess of budget: $94,956 in additional sales tax (growth) from Dutchess County. $320,878 more in tax interest, back tax collection and installment agreements. $369,433 in net gain on sales of foreclosed properties. $73,350 in increased Fines & Forfeited bail and $45,525 in parking tickets. $95,646 in additional Mortgage Tax receipts. $61,983 in additional Planning application Fees. The City saved in almost every department budget across the board and only spent 93% of its expense budget. Included in this was a significant drop in the pension costs (244K) due tier 6. The City also saved: $78,958 due to the decreased cost of gas and diesel. $47,345 in Fire Overtime. $57,503 in Detective salaries due to attrition. $124,258 in unused Contingency.

Un-audited Liabilities decrease $1.3 million mainly due to pay-downs of short and long-term debt. The post-employment benefits obligation is increasing annually but due to New York State law at this point, it remains unfunded. The Water Fund shows a change/gain in net position of approximately $532k. As these financial statements are on a full accrual basis, expenses such as post-employment benefits as described above, compensated absences (unused but earned employee leave time) and depreciation on fixed assets are calculated in. For 2015, post-employment benefit cost amounted to $257,664, and depreciation expense amounted to $324,352. The Sewer Fund shows a change/gain in net position of approximately $1.27 million. As noted with the Water Fund above these financial statements are on a full accrual basis as described above, expenses such as post-employment benefits amounting to $76,024 and depreciation on fixed assets of $452,006 are calculated in that figure.
