Independent Auditor's Report
on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on
Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial
Statements Performed in Accordance With
Government Auditing Standards
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the
City Commission
City of Miami, Florida
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the aggregate discretely presented
component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Miami, Florida (the
"City"), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2008, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial
statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 26, 2009. Our report was modified to include a
reference to other auditors and the adoption of the recognition and disclosure requirements of the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post
Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions. 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. Other auditors audited the
financial statements of the Southeast Overtown Park West Redevelopment Agency, the Omni Redevelopment
Agency, the Miami Midtown Community Redevelopment Agency, the Gusman and Olympia Special Revenue Fund,
the Virginia Key Beach Park Trust, the Liberty City Community Revitalization District Trusts, the Firefighters' and
Police Officers' Retirement Trust and the General Employees' and Sanitation Employees' Retirement Trust, Other
Managed Trusts, the Miami Sports and Exhibition Authority, Downtown Development Authority, Bayfront Park
Management Trust, and the Civil Investigative Panel, as described in our report on the City's financial statements.
This report does not include the results of other auditors' testing of internal control over financial reporting or
compliance and other matters that are reported on separately by those other auditors.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City'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's internal control over financial reporting.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the preceding
paragraph and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be
significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. However, as discussed below, we identified deficiencies in internal
control over financial reporting that we consider to be significant deficiencies.

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 entity'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 entity's financial
statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control. We
consider the deficiencies described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items
IC 2008-01 to IC 2008-05, to be significant deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting.
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
entity'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 the internal control that might be
significant deficiencies and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all significant deficiencies that are also
considered to be material weaknesses. However, of the significant deficiencies described above, we consider items
IC 2008-01 and IC 2008-05 to be material weaknesses.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City'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 in a separate letter dated March 26, 2009.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Honorable Mayor, members of the City Commission,
management of the City, federal and state awarding agencies, pass -through entities and the Auditor General of the
State of Florida, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Independent Auditor's Report
on Compliance With Requirements Applicable to Each
Major Federal Program and State Project and on Internal
Control Over Compliance in Accordance With OMB
Circular A-133 and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General
and on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and
State Financial Assistance
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the
City Commission
City of Miami, Florida
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of the City of Miami, Florida (the "City") with the types of compliance requirements
described in the OMB CircularA-133 Compliance Supplement and the requirements described in the Department of
Financial Services' State Projects Compliance Supplement, that are applicable to each of its major federal programs
and state projects for the year ended September 30, 2008. The City's major federal programs and state projects 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 its major federal programs
and state projects is the responsibility of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
City'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; OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments and Non -Profit
Organizations; and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Those standards, OMB Circular A-133 and
Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General 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 or state project occurred. An audit includes examining,
on a test basis, evidence about the City'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 on the City's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable
to each of its major federal programs and state projects for the year ended September 30, 2008. However, the
results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance with those requirements, which are required
to be reported in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 or Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General and which
are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item CF-2008-01.

Internal Control Over Compliance
The management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance
with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs and state projects. In
planning and performing our audit, we considered the City's internal control over compliance with the requirements
that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program or state project 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.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the preceding
paragraph and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in the entity's internal control that might be significant
deficiencies or material weaknesses as defined below. However, as discussed below, we identified certain
deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be significant deficiencies and others that we
consider to be material weaknesses.
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 or state project on a timely basis.
A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the
entity's ability to administer a federal program or state project such that there is more than a remote likelihood that
noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program or state project that is more than
inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control. We consider the deficiencies in
internal control over compliance described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs as item
IC 2008-03 and IC 2008-04 to be significant deficiencies.
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 or state
project will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control. We did not consider the deficiencies
described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs to be material weaknesses, as
defined above.
The City's response to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings
and Questioned Costs. We did not audit the City's response and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the aggregate discretely presented
component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Miami, Florida (the
"City"), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2008, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial
statements and have issued our report thereon dated March 26, 2009. Our report was modified to include a
reference to other auditors. Our audit and the audit of other auditors was performed for the purpose of forming
opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements. The

I — Financial Statements Findings
A. Internal Control
IC 2008-01 — Significant Issues Documentation
Criteria: Internal control policies and procedures should provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of the
financial reporting process, including the accurate recording and accounting of routine transactions as well as
significant and unusual transactions. Also, such policies and procedures at a minimum require that all such
transactions be analyzed, reviewed, and reduced to writing.
Condition: We noted that the financial statements required significant accounting adjustments in order to comply with
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). We also noted that the City does not have a formalized system
analyzing significant, non -routine, and unusual transactions to help ensure that they are identified, addressed and
concluded on, and that they coincide with GAAP. Examples of such transactions noted included:
• Recording an Interlocal Development and Operating Lease agreement between the City and Miami -
Dade School Board for the construction and operation of a police training facility; and
• Recording of a $2 million contribution to the Miami Art Museum of Dade County, to support the
development of a new fine arts facility.
Context: The condition is considered systemic.
Effect: Increase the risk of material misstatement of the financial statements.
Cause: Lack of a formalized policies and procedures to perform routine analysis.
Recommendation: The City is involved in and faced with various complex transactions which require a rigorous
analysis of the facts and adequate accounting research. We recommend that management develop and implement
formal policies and procedures necessary to ensure that all non -routine and significant transactions are properly
reported in the financial statements. A "best practice" may include that the City: (1) document the fact pattern
related to the transaction; (2) summarize the terms of the transactions; (3) analyze the accounting implications; (4)
conduct the adequate research or consult others as considered necessary; (5) document conclusions reached; and
(6) implement a formal review of the conclusions.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City agrees that a formal documentation of
significant and/or complex transactions can be beneficial in the development and formulation of the proper
accounting treatment for such transactions. We have developed a framework that will crystallize the discussions of
transactions and the conclusions reached. It will be our basis for accounting for the transactions. Since the
conclusion of FY 2007, the Finance Department has assigned its Chief Accountants the responsibility of such
documentation.

Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued)
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
With respect to the Inter -local Development and Operating Lease agreement between the City and the Miami -Dade
School Board for the construction of a police training facility, the initial decision on the manner to record the
transaction was made mindful of the IRS' arbitrage rules and the spending exceptions. This item was recorded as
FY 2008 expenditures because the funding for the construction costs were bond proceeds. However, since the funds
were transferred to a third party escrow agent, the effect, for IRS rules purposes, is as if the funds were spent as of
September 30, 2008 and so the accounting treatment should have reflected this as Cash with Fiscal Agent rather
than an actual expenditure.
The Finance Department concurs that the analysis of the Miami Art Museum transaction should have involved more
departments to be as comprehensive as possible. We have established a policy to document the decision -making
process of significant issues.

Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
IC 2008-02 — Bank Reconciliations
Criteria: Internal control policies and procedures should exist which requires proper recording and disposition of
reconciling items in a timely manner.
Condition: We noted the following deficiencies as it relates to bank reconciliations:
• The September 30, 2008 bank reconciliation for the main disbursement account grouped significant
unreconciled amounts as outstanding checks; these amounts were not properly analyzed and disposed
of in a reasonable and timely manner.
• The Cigna bank account reconciliation was not adjusted for checks outstanding at year end.
Context: The condition was noted in 2 of the 9 bank reconciliations selected for testing.
Effect: The lack of adequate internal control procedures requiring proper recording and disposition of reconciling
items in a timely manner can result in material misstatements to the financial statements and/or misappropriation of
cash.
Cause: The cause is a lack of oversight and review by supervisory personnel to ensure reconciling items are
properly treated.
Recommendation: We recommend that management adhere to their policy which requires that all significant
reconciling items be properly investigated, recorded, and disposed of in a timely manner.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City concurs with the auditor's recommendation.
The unreconciled amounts referred to in the finding are voided checks. In performing testing, M&P compared the
outstanding checks list per Wachovia to the outstanding checks list per the City. In September 2008, there was
$219,119 of legacy system -issued checks that were voided. The Finance Staff notified the bank and adjusted the
checks listing in the banks records to reflect the void. However, a journal entry was not made in the new financial
system to adjust the cash balance to reflect the voids — hence the variance. The adjusting entry to correct this was
done in FY 2009 for both accounts.

The City Miami, Florida
Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued)
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
IC 2008-03 — Grants Management
Criteria: Circular A-133 and rules of the Auditor General states that the City should identify in its accounts all federal
and state awards received and expended. Federal and state program and award identification includes, as
applicable, the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance ("CFDA") or Catalog of State Financial Assistance ("CSFA")
title and award number.
Condition: We noted instances where departments responsible for administering individual grants provided the
Finance Department with inaccurate CFDA / CSFA numbers. Certain federal pass -through grant awards were
misclassified as state assistance expenditures and incorrectly listed under a CSFA number. This is significant in
determining whether a program was a Major (Type A) Program for federal or state testing purposes. Although the
schedule of federal awards and state financial assistance (SEFA) was properly reviewed, communication
breakdowns between the individual grant administrators and the Finance Department resulted in the reporting errors
in the SEFA not being detected.
Context: The finding is considered systemic in nature.
Effect: Lack of effective and regular coordination between the City's departments involved in grant programs may
result in inaccurate reporting of grant expenditures.
Cause: The cause is lack knowledge and/or training of departments directly administering the grants in
understanding and properly communicating the financial and programmatic aspects of grant programs.
Recommendation: We recommend that the design of the internal control structure should require that the Finance
Department obtain and review grant agreements for each award obtained by the City. A comprehensive review
should be performed of the schedule of federal and state awards/projects to provide a reasonable assurance that all
expenditure amounts, CFDA/CSFA numbers, and grant/contract numbers are correct.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City agrees with the recommendation of the
auditors. The Finance Department requires an award setup form which would indicate whether the grant is federal,
state or neither, and a copy of the grant agreement — among other things, from all departments prior to setting up a
grant award in the City's financial system. Going forward, the Finance Department has implemented control
procedures which require that the Finance Department staff obtain and review grant agreements for each award
obtained by the City during the award setup process. This will ensure that each award is assigned an accurate
CFDA or CSFA number.

IC 2008-04 — Filing for Grant Reimbursements
Criteria: The City's internal control system should be designed to ensure that claims for reimbursements are filed in a
timely manner, soon after the incurrence and payment of qualified related expenditures.
Condition: As of September 30, 2008 the City had not received reimbursements for approximately $40 million of
qualifying reimbursable grant expenditures. $16.3 million of the $40 million have been outstanding greater than one
year. The $40 million balance is comprised of the following amounts:
Unbilled Balances Greater than One Year
FEMA - In fiscal year 2006, the City recorded a receivable of $16.5 million for reimbursable hurricane -
related expenditures. As of March 2009, $8.7 million had not been collected/reimbursed from the grantor
(over 36 months since the expenditures were incurred).
Other Grants - Excluding the FEMA $8.7 million discussed above, the City had approximately $7.6 million of
other grant expenditures that had not been billed or submitted to the grantor for reimbursement as of March
2009 (over 24 months since the expenditures were incurred).
Unbilled Balances Less than One Year
In addition to the above amounts, the City had approximately $23.7 million of grant expenditures that had
not been billed or submitted to the grantor for reimbursement that were 60 days old as of September 30,
2008.
Reasons for the delay in the receipt of grant funding appear to result from the following deficiencies in administering
the grant programs of the City:
• Delay in the compiling and filing of proper documentation necessary to receive reimbursements.
• Incomplete/improper reimbursement packages submitted to grantors, which were subsequently
rejected.
• In certain instances management has decided not to submit for reimbursement until certain capital
projects are 100% complete, even though the grantor did not impose such restrictions on the City.
• Departments not drawing down authorized funding from the grantor in a timely manner.
• The City's management of grants operates in a decentralized format which results in ineffective
oversight over individual grant administrators.
Context: Condition was noted during the testing of grants receivable.
Effect: The delay in requesting for reimbursements can have an adverse effect on the cash flows of the City's
operations or affect the collectability of the amount due.
Cause: Individual departments administering grants did not compile and file the proper documentation needed to
receive such reimbursements or the City did not draw down authorized funding from grantor in a timely manner after
the incurrence and payment of a qualified related expenditure.
Recommendation: We recommend that the City establish a control system to ensure that amounts expended are
timely submitted for reimbursement, all required forms are compiled and prepared in the format prescribed by the
grantor, and reimbursement packages are reviewed and approved by supervisory personnel.

Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City's grants and awards processes are
decentralized throughout the various user departments. Each department has program managers who are
responsible for filing reimbursements with the grantors and informing the Finance Department for reporting purposes.
The Finance Department has assigned departmental grant liaisons to help ensure timely submission of financial
information.

IC 2008-05 — Capital Asset Management
Criteria: Organizations are required to adopt adequate internal controls to properly record, summarize, and report
accounting transactions, including those associated with the acquisition and disposition of capital assets, to provide
reasonable assurance that the financial statements are not materially misstated.
Condition: We noted the City's capital asset detail schedule required numerous material adjustments to properly
report the year-end balance. The adjustments related to routine transactions as well as certain unusual transactions.
Examples of such adjustments included the following:
• $1.9 million of land assets already included in the beginning balance was improperly listed as a
construction in progress (CIP) transfer in the current year. This would have resulted in the
overstatement of the year end capital asset.
• $927,000 of maintenance costs was improperly capitalized.
• $1.9 million of capital asset contributions to the City was improperly omitted from the current year
capital asset additions.
• $19.7 million of cash placed in an escrow account pursuant to the Interlocal Development Agreement
between the City and Miami -Dade School Board for the construction of the police training center was
improperly listed as CIP assets. The balance was reclassified to the "Restricted Cash and Investments"
line item on the financial statements.
• $2 million of cash contributions made to the Miami Art Museum of Dade County, to support the
development of new fine arts facility was incorrectly listed as a capital asset addition in the current year.
• $2.5 million of payments to subrecipients was incorrectly classified as depreciation expense at the fund
level.
We also noted the following control deficiencies relating to capital assets:
• Completed construction projects are not transferred to proper asset categories in a timely manner.
• A formal reconciliation of CIP balances transferred from the "TRACS System" (old system) to Oracle
Capital Asset Module (new system) was not performed; significant differences were identified during the
audit process.
• Capital asset inventory was performed three (3) years ago. The City's policy is to perform annual
inventory counts, however this is not being performed as required.
• There are no formalized processes or controls in place to ensure that assets deleted by individual user
departments are properly reported to the finance department.
While the City had policies and procedures in place to account for capital assets, the internal controls requiring timely
recording and review of capital asset related transactions did not function effectively to prevent the material errors
that occurred.
Context: The finding is considered systemic in nature.
Effect: Capital assets represent a significant account balance for the City and improper accounting could result in a
material financial statement misstatement.
Cause: The cause is the lack of oversight and procedures between departments/functions to provide reasonable
assurance that capital assets are properly reported.

The City Miami, Florida
Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued)
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
Recommendation: We recommend the City adhere to its internal control policies and procedures to provide
reasonable assurance that the following occurs on a routine basis:
• Implementation of procedures to receive notification of completed CIP projects to ensure the close-out
of the project is proper and timely.
• Prepare a formal reconciliation of CIP balances between the "TRACS" and "Oracle" systems to ensure
that all amounts are properly captured and transferred over to the Oracle Capital Asset Module.
• Capital asset inventory is performed periodically.
• Establish formal control procedures for user departments to follow when disposing of capital assets.
Established control procedures should require monthly reporting of disposals to the finance department
to ensure that capital asset records are updated in a timely manner.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: The City agrees with the recommendation of the
auditors. During fiscal year 2008, the City had been working through many issues encountered with the
implementation of the fixed assets module of the Oracle system. The City was able to address many of the concerns
from the prior year. Through the process of continuous improvement, the City believes it can continue to address the
issues noted and mitigate the findings in future periods.

U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development:
Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS (HOPWA)
CFDA #14.241
Grant Number F-LH-06-F005
Criteria: 24 CFR section 574.310 requires that except for persons in short-term supportive housing, each person
receiving rental assistance under the HOPWA Program must pay as rent the higher of: (1) 30 percent of the family's
monthly adjusted gross income; (2) 10 percent of the family's monthly gross income; or (3) the portion of the
payments that is designated if the family is receiving payments for welfare assistance, adjusted for the family's actual
housing costs. This is specifically designated by the agency to meet the family's housing costs.
In addition, the amount of grant funds used to pay monthly assistance for an eligible person may not exceed the
difference between 1) the lower of the rent standard or reasonable rent for the unit and the resident's rent payment
calculated in accordance with 24 CFR section 574.310 and 24 CFR section 574.320.
Condition: We noted that in 5 of 16 items tested, the tenant was either not afforded the full utility credit allowed or
received partial credit. In addition, we noted an instance where the tenant was paying more than 30 percent of the
family's monthly adjusted gross income, which exceeds the limit established by the grant program.
Questioned Costs: Undetermined
Context: The finding is considered systemic in nature.
Effect: Failure to accurately calculate amounts pertaining to eligibility could result in grantor requesting
reimbursement to the program for amounts not spent in accordance with the compliance requirements.
Recommendation: To City should immediately implement procedures whereby each tenant's monthly payment,
including utility credit is accurately calculated.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action:
The City agrees with the Auditor's finding regarding the utility calculation. This issue was brought to the attention of
the City in a HUD audit last year. The City took immediate corrective action and completed the recertification of all
clients who needed their utility allowance records to be updated. As of November 2008, all clients were receiving
their full utility allowance as required by 24 CFR 574.310 (d) and 24 CFR 574.320.
It is the City's position that the statute establishing the HOPWA program allows clients to pay more than 30% of their
income on rent.

The City of Miami, Florida
Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs (Continued)
Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2008
The U.S. Code, Title 42, Chapter 131 — Housing Opportunities for Persons with AIDS, under 12908 (a)(1) states,
"Grants under this section may be used only for assistance to provide rental assistance for low-income eligible
persons. Such assistance may be project based or tenant based and shall be provided to the extent practicable in
the manner provided for under section 1437f of this title." 1437f (2)(C)(3) — 40 Percent Limit, states, "At the time a
family initially receives tenant -based assistance under this section with respect to any dwelling unit, the total amount
that a family may be required to pay for rent may not exceed 40 percent of the monthly adjusted income of the
family." This is language approved by congress and this is an excerpt of the statute under which HUD regulations
are based and created. Regulations do not override statutes. As such, the City is in compliance with the intent of 24
CFR 574.310 (d)(1). The City presented this argument to HUD and is awaiting HUD's decision on it.
Notwithstanding the above, the City went ahead and on November 2008, the City completed a full re-evaluation of
instances where clients were paying over 30 percent of their AGI and has adjusted their housing assistance payment
accordingly. The City certifies that no client is paying more than 30 percent of AGI.

Findings related to financial statements:
IC 2007-01 Post Closing and Financial Reporting Process
Numerous adjustments were required to be made to the City's trial balance in order to
comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP°).
The City does not have a formalized financial reporting process which would include
the review and approval of changes/revisions made.
IC 2007-02 Significant Issues Documentation
The financial statements required significant corrections, including corrections to the
prior periods, in order to comply with GAAP. It was also noted that the City does not
have a formalized system and/or personnel that are responsible for analyzing
significant, non -routine and unusual transactions to help ensure that they are
identified, addressed and concluded on, and that they coincide with GAAP.

management's response at IC 2008-01.
Not Corrected See current year's observations and
management's response at IC 2008-01.
IC 2007-03 Oracle Training
The City implemented a new software program (Oracle) for financial reporting in during Corrected
fiscal year 2007. The finance department is not fully versed in the application and
operation of the Oracle accounting system and as a consequence they are not able to
fully utilize the system at its optimum to properly produce the necessary information,
and reports needed that would allow authorized personnel to properly initiate,
authorize, record and process financial data in a viable manner.
IC 2007-04 Recording Accruals and Accounts Payable
Expenditures that should have been accrued at fiscal year end but were not recorded
due to a lack of review by supervisory personnel. Additionally, accrual adjustments
were not timely recorded due to other City departments not submitting the necessary
information to the Finance Department.
IC 2007-05 Bank Reconciliations
We noted the following deficiencies as it relates to bank reconciliations:
Certain Corrective
Action Taken
a. Monthly bank reconciliations for the main depository, workers' compensation, and Corrected

expenditures had not been properly submitted to the grantor for reimbursement (over
24 months since the expenditures were incurred). The initial submission was rejected
due to filing with the wrong grantor agency and the correction has yet to be submitted

appears to result from: (1) individual departments not filing/submitting requests in a
timely manner to the grantor agencies and/or (2) the departments not drawing down
authorized funding from the grantor in a timely manner.
IC 2007-08 Capital Asset Management
The City's capital asset detail schedule did not reconcile to the general ledger control
