PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT The City of Cape Canaveral was incorporated as a municipal corporation in May 1963. The City is located on the Atlantic Ocean approximately midpoint between Miami and Jacksonville and is slightly over 50 miles east of Orlando. This 1.9 square-mile beach and coastal community serves a population of 10,022 and is bounded on the west by the Banana River, on the north by Port Canaveral, on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and on the south by the City of Cocoa Beach. The City is governed by an elected mayor, mayor pro tem and three council members. The Council is responsible, among other things, for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, approval of property tax levies, appointing committees and hiring of the City Manager. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the Council, overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, drafting the annual budget and appointing Directors of the various City departments. The City provides a full range of services which include police, contracted with the Brevard County Sheriff’s Office, and fire/EMS protection contracted with the Cape Canaveral Volunteer Fire Department, Inc. The City provides recreational activities, cultural events, solid waste, wastewater, reclaimed water, stormwater, community development and maintenance of streets and infrastructure. The annual budget, adopted prior to October 1st, serves as the foundation for the City’s financial planning and control. The budget is approved by fund. Amendments to funds and transfers between departments require Council approval. Budget to actual comparisons are provided in this Report for each governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK The City’s economy is anchored by Port Canaveral, Canaveral Air Force Station, Patrick Air Force Base and Kennedy Space Center, along with ancillary defense and aerospace contractors. The City's proximity to Orlando, coupled with its riverfront parks and beaches, also help spur tourism activity. Income levels are average. Cape Canaveral unemployment during Fiscal Year 2014 averaged 6.4% and is currently at 6.1%, (according to Homefacts.com). The national unemployment rate dropped to 5.9% in September 2014 (reference the Bureau of Labor Statistics). Due to accelerated hiring, Cape Canaveral, as well as Brevard County, will continue to show improvement due to increased industry growth at the Kennedy Space Center and Canaveral Air Force Station; increased Aerospace and High Technological Manufacturing Companies such as Embraer S.A. and Northrup Grumman’s expansion at the Melbourne International Airport; expansion of Port Canaveral Cruise Industry; and numerous service-oriented companies countywide. Housing indicators have risen according to data provided by the Economic Development Commission of the Space Coast, Winter-Spring 2015 Economic Review. The area's median single-family home price has risen by 8.1% over the previous year and is expected to rise again in 2015. There are still pockets of high foreclosure rates within the county, but the City of Cape Canaveral with the aforementioned proximity to core businesses, military installations and the second busiest cruise ship port in the world continues to fare better than most municipalities. The above factors will likely lead to continued moderate increase in assessed property valuation with increased revenues projected for utility taxes, franchise fees, state shared revenues, building permits, impact fees and utility revenues.

MAJOR INITIATIVES The City continues implementation of the community’s strategic vision which will strengthen Cape Canaveral economically by creating a strong high quality, high service level community in which to live, work and play. In September 2014, the City completed the construction of a new Fire Station. This state of the art facility will provide Cape Canaveral and the surrounding community with increased emergency support and project increased confidence in the community as a whole. The Capital Projects completed and/or currently being undertaken by the Public Works Services Department are numerous and provide for much needed improvements to both of the City’s Wastewater and Stormwater systems. These Capital Projects are funded through a number of sources including Enterprise Capital Funds (Stormwater and Wastewater) and an approved State Revolving Fund (SRF) loan from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). Refurbishment of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Main Building was initiated in May 2014 and included the construction of new restrooms, storage areas, a training room, kitchen facilities, a second floor Operations Control Room, a bleach system building and hardening of the exterior of the Building to code requirements. The renovation was completed in December 2014. The Main Building was constructed in 1966. An Emergency Generator was installed in fall 2014 at Lift Station #4 on Coquina Drive in the Harbor Heights neighborhood. This Lift Station is the 5th in the City to be modified to include an emergency generator for use during long power outages. The City maintained an active stormwater system maintenance program. Activities included the replacement of older style stormwater inlets with new Type “C” inlets. These newer inlets require less maintenance, are not damaged as easily by vehicular traffic, prohibit larger debris from entering the stormwater system and provide improved stormwater flow. Exfiltration piping was also installed at two locations in 2014 where significant street flooding occurred after heavy rainfall events. Street sweeping of all curbed streets also continues on a monthly basis. Brief descriptions of projects to be completed in 2015 are as follows: The Holman Road Sanitary Sewer Improvements Project was developed to alleviate sewer back-up in a residence along Holman Road and to increase sewer capacity. The sanitary sewer line located beneath Holman Road will be replaced with a 12-inch diameter pipe. This Work is the first phase of a three-phased Project to replace the entire sanitary sewer line to Lift Station #2 located along Center Street. Engineering drawings were completed in summer 2014 and construction will begin in summer 2015. The City’s Sludge Belt Press is over 20 years old and will be refurbished. Its purpose is to press solids from the wastewater process and direct the solids into dumpsters for transport and disposal at the Brevard County Landfill. The Project also includes expansion of the Belt Press Building and purchase/installation of an additional Sludge Belt Press to provide redundancy in the treatment process. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in winter 2015.


- 10 -

The Reclaimed Water Tank Project includes the construction of a new 2.5 million gallon Reclaimed Water Tank at the WWTP. The Tank will allow the City to eliminate discharges of treated wastewater to the Banana River and provide additional reclaimed water to residents, Port Canaveral and the City of Cocoa Beach. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in spring 2015.

The Oxidation Ditch Improvements Project includes the complete redesign of the Oxidation Ditch system at the WWTP. There is currently no redundancy with the Oxidation Ditch design. The redesign will provide a second Oxidation Ditch process for use in emergency situations and will allow for improved maintenance. The Work will include refurbishment of all pumps and valves for a more efficient system and installing a cover over the existing Oxidation Ditch to limit offsite spray. Engineering drawings were completed in fall 2014 and construction will begin in fall 2015. The Canaveral City Park Exfiltration Project includes the construction of exfiltration piping beneath Canaveral City Park. The piping will allow for the exfiltration of stormwater from area streets into the surficial aquifer. This Project will eliminate a substantial amount of stormwater discharge to the Banana River. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in fall 2015. The stormwater pipe beneath the northern side of West Central Boulevard will be repaired. This pipe is composed of corrugated iron and has been in service for an unknown number of years. The pipe will be lined with a concrete material especially designed for stormwater pipes. Construction drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in spring 2015. The Central Ditch south of West Central Boulevard will be dredged for a length of approximately 900 feet. The channel contains approximately three feet of muck (organic debris) which is a continuing source of pollutants to the water column in the Central Ditch. Engineering drawings will be completed in fall 2015 and dredging will begin in fall 2015. Construction plans will be prepared for the North Atlantic Avenue Streetscape Project. Grant funds in the amount of $1.9 million were received through the Space Coast Transportation Planning Organization (SCTPO) and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and $860,000 in funding was received from Brevard County Transportation Impact Fees. This Project includes the construction of a new pedway and sidewalk, lighting and stormwater improvements, vegetative plantings and numerous decorative features. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in spring 2015. The Force Main #3 Replacement Project includes the replacement of the oldest force main in the City which was installed over 25 years ago and has experienced numerous breaks over the past few years. The new force main will connect Lift Station #3 to the force main located along Thurm Boulevard. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in summer 2015. The Grit/Bar Screen Replacement Project includes the replacement of the headworks at the WWTP. Excessive amounts of larger debris are currently passing through the existing headworks and into the wastewater treatment train thus reducing efficiency. Installation will begin in summer 2015. The Lift Station #6 (Imperial Drive) and #7 (West Central Boulevard) Upgrades include improvements to these two Lift Stations due to continued growth along the northern State Road A1A corridor. Lift Station #7 will also be relocated to City-owned property in Manatee Sanctuary Park. Engineering drawings will be completed in winter 2015 and construction will begin in winter 2015.


- 11 -

The development of a new Stormwater Master Plan is required since the original Plan is over 14 years old. The new Plan will include recommendations for the completion of stormwater upgrades to improve water quality in stormwater runoff. The Plan will be completed in winter 2015. The Central Ditch north of the Oak Manor Trailer Park will be dredged or cleaned of debris and surficial muck (organic debris) deposits. This portion of the Central Ditch contains much less muck than the southern portion of the Central Ditch. Engineering drawings will be completed in fall 2015 and dredging will begin in fall 2015. Consistent with direction from the 2009 Community Visioning, the City adopted Ordinance No. 11-2012 creating the A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District (EOOD) for the north A1A commercial corridor. The purpose of the EOOD is to create a strong sense of identity for the City’s northern entrance area, enhance opportunities for economic development and job creation, attract services desired by the citizens and allow for additional uses such as a mixed use, Town Center type development. To this end, the EOOD establishes architectural design standards, increases building heights, revises hotel requirements, increases landscaping requirements and allows for additional uses. Similarly, an upcoming expansion of the A1A Economic Opportunity Overlay District will address the unique needs of redevelopment of the southern portion of our City.

In 2012, the City Council created Cape Canaveral’s Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA). A CRA is a tool to fund and plan for investment and redevelopment in a specific area. Staff is working to develop Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) incentive programs. There will ultimately be many incentives offered/available to the property owners including, but not limited to:

Improvement and Beautification Programs such as Commercial Improvement Grants and Multi-Family Residential or Residential Neighborhood Improvement Grants, matching Façade Grant, Exterior and/or Interior improvements, Paint Voucher Grant.

Rehabilitation, Redevelopment and Repurposing of Existing Buildings such as repurposing existing building(s) including commercial projects that are hospitality, entertainment, industrial, office and technology based businesses, retail or a jobs producing entity.

Rehabilitation Matching Revitalization Grants such as Commercial Life Safety Compliance Grants and Site Preparation to assist with demolition/removal of obsolete structures.

Incentive Fund for Opportunity Site Grant Programs and Events and Marketing Grants. Waivers and Reimbursements program for City building permit fees and plan checking fees

deferral plan (Program pays the fees up to $1000 - not a waiver of fees). Impact Fee Assistance/Deferment Program.

A New City Hall has been part of the community conversation since the mid 1990’s. On July 16, 2013 Task Order No. 1 was approved by City Council for architectural and engineering services related to the design of a new City Hall. Some of the key tasks contained in the project scope of work are: Site Plan Development, Final Construction Drawings and Documents, Permitting, Road Closure Design, Meetings and Public Involvement, Bid Document Preparation and Bidding/Negotiation Services and Geotechnical Engineering. The proposal currently includes a two story, 18,500 square foot City Hall at the site of the former Community & Economic Development Department building at 7510 N. Atlantic Ave. The old building was demolished in January 2015 and the site has been re-addressed to 100 Polk Ave. This site was selected as the location for the New City Hall because it is centrally located within the City limits, it is adjacent to many other City facilities and it will accommodate the required parking and stormwater


- 12 -

and Economic Development Department is currently temporarily located at 110 Polk Ave., which is adjacent to the New City Hall site. Once construction of the New City Hall is complete, the building at 110 Polk Ave. will be demolished and the lot will be incorporated into the overall City Hall site plan.

Branding. In response to RFP #2014-01, the City distributed twenty-one RFP packets to potential bidders for the purpose of developing a City Branding Initiative to increase the overall awareness/positive perception of the City, by engaging residents and businesses to market the City internally and externally as a vibrant, attractive City in which to live, work, play, learn, invest and visit. On June 17, 2014, the Business and Economic Development Board met and ranked the top three responses from a pool of five received. On June 30, 2014, the RFP Review Committee interviewed the top three Finalists and selected Prismatic as the top firm due to its intimate knowledge of Cape Canaveral, its unique approach to the City’s branding campaign and the quality of relevant experience. City Council awarded RFP #2014-01, Branding Contract with Prismatic of Orlando. The six-month project began on September 2nd. To date:

• Prismatic has developed its strategy for public outreach and requested City participation to reach the largest audience possible for community input.

• Target audiences for public outreach include the business community, residents and tourists.

• Leisure Services offers programming to a large variety of citizens. Leisure Services Director is assisting with outreach to a diverse sample of citizens through its activities, classes and groups.


- 13 -

• A two-hour community workshop and possible outdoor guerilla marketing stunt are being developed to excite and engage Citizens.

• Selected upcoming community events will serve as outreach opportunities, with details to be determined.

• Prismatic and City to have weekly update calls to establish/maintain community outreach timeline.

Imperial Boulevard Easements. In support of the Cape Canaveral Vision Statement and as an economic development initiative, Staff worked with property owners to secure new Public Utility Easements supporting the infrastructure needs of the undeveloped commercial properties on the east side of Astronaut Boulevard/A1A at the north end of the City. Initially, the new Easements will be used to provide sanitary sewer and an 8-inch water line to all of the parcels served. This initiative is related to the scheduled expansion and enhancement of Lift Station #6 on Imperial Boulevard. Manatee Sanctuary Park experienced an amazing uplift with paving of the parking lot and the half mile Pedway. Improvements to the Park include a beautifully landscaped island as well as decorative solar lighting. As the City’s flagship riverfront park, it has become an even more proud asset. The old City Hall could be used as a City Welcome Center or to expand Leisure Services activities such as a senior center, youth center, multi-generational center or community center. The City’s computer network acquired the Microsoft Cloud which increased sustainability in the event of a natural disaster or unexpected power outages. Additionally, every City employee was provided an email account which broadened access and increased efficiency throughout the City. LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING It has been policy to plan financially towards future Capital Projects. With this is mind, annually the City adopts a Five Year Capital Improvement Plan and has budgeted reserves to provide funding for acquisition of necessary Fire Rescue Capital Equipment and Vehicles, Public Safety, new parks and construction of a new City Hall. Although these reserves are not restricted in the legal sense, the intent is to continue to increase these funds with the goal of reducing future financial needs. The City’s General Fund obtained a ten year Bank Loan in February 2014 for $5,500,000, at a low interest rate of 1.99% with an average loan payment of $613,385 annually, which commenced February 2015. This loan included financing for the cost of a City Hall, Fire Station, and Refurbishment of the Wastewater Treatment Plant and related Capital Improvements. The City’s Wastewater enterprise fund has long term debt of $802,051. As the City continues to pay on its existing State Revolving Fund Loans, which will be paid in full by October 2016, this will reduce the previous financial obligation of $649,383 annually. Moving forward, the City has already secured two new State Revolving Fund Loans for Wastewater Treatment & Reuse Facilities/Stormwater Management Facilities totaling $7,031,641 at a low 1.69% interest rate. Repayment begins June 2017, with annual Loan Payments of $424,552 (a reduction of $224,831 in debt service annually).

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

To the Honorable Mayor, City Council, and City Manager, City of Cape Canaveral, Florida: Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Cape Canaveral, Florida (the City), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, 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

The City’s 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 opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of September 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof, and the respective budgetary comparison for the General and Cape Canaveral CRA Funds for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

- 26 -

Other Matters

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Note 1(r) and Note 15 to the financial statements, in 2014, the City adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported As Assets and Liabilities. The effects of this standard have also been applied to the financial statements as of September 30, 2013. See Note 15 for the effect of GASB 65 on beginning net position. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis and required supplementary information, 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.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, budgetary comparison schedules, and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and budgetary comparison schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 17, 2015 on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis

City of Cape Canaveral, Florida Management’s Discussion and Analysis

- 29 -

As management of the City of Cape Canaveral, we provide readers of the City’s financial statements this overview and analysis of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented in conjunction with additional information furnished in the letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 7 - 14 of this report. Financial Highlights

• The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent year by $40.1 million (net position). Of this amount, $11.1 million (unrestricted net position) may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations.

• The City’s total net position increased by $640,628. This is the result of management’s intense efforts to always pursue the most cost-effective measures while protecting the City’s resources.

• At the close of the fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $9.77 million, an increase of $2.6 million in comparison to the prior year, due primarily to issuance of long-term debt offset by the construction of the New Fire Station and the complete Refurbishment of the Wastewater Treatment Plant in Fiscal Year 2014.

• At the close of the fiscal year, fund balance for the General Fund was $9,091,797. Of this amount $124,668 relates to inventory and prepaids as well as long term advances and is therefore nonspendable. The remaining fund balance includes: restricted ($430,314), committed ($5,024,941) assigned ($485,543) and unassigned ($3,026,331) balances. The total assigned fund balance category is assigned for balancing the 2015 budget. Within the committed fund balance category, the largest piece is $3,742,637 committed for the construction of a new City Hall. Unassigned funds are available to fund on-going activities of the City’s various General Fund services and programs.

• The City’s total long-term liabilities increased $4.9 million. This was due primarily to issuance of the $5.5 Capital Improvement Revenue Note, offset by annual debt service payments on outstanding obligations related to a State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection revolving loan for Wastewater treatment improvements made in 1995 and 1996.

Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s 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 themselves. Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City’s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods. (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, physical environment, sanitation, economic development, culture and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include Wastewater and Stormwater operations. The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 42-43 of this report. Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into two categories: governmental funds and proprietary 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 near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements. 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 City’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 nine individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for the General Fund, Cape Canaveral Community Redevelopment Agency Fund, Capital Construction Fund and Enterprise Capital Fund, all of which are considered to be major funds. Financial data from the other five governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements presented in the supplementary information section of this report. The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its governmental funds. Budgetary comparison statements for the major and non-major funds have been provided to demonstrate compliance with the budget in this report. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 44-47 of this report. Proprietary funds. The City maintains two proprietary (“Enterprise”) 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 Wastewater and Stormwater operations. The statements for the proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the Wastewater and Stormwater operations, which are considered to be major funds of the City. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 50-52 of this report. Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning the funding of Other Post-Employment Benefits. Required supplementary information and the related footnotes can be found on page 76 of this report.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements can be found on pages 80-86 of this report. Government-wide Financial Analysis

As stated earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of Cape Canaveral, assets exceeded liabilities by $40.1 million at the close of the 2014 fiscal year.

By far the largest portion of the City’s net position, $27.31 million (68.1%) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery and equipment); less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. This is a decrease from the previous year due to the impact of the 2014 Capital Improvement Revenue Note offset by the construction of the New Fire Station and Initial Planning of the New City Hall; the refurbishment of the Wastewater Treatment Plant Building; and the continued stormwater system maintenance program and the City’s sanitary sewer improvements Project. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

• Property taxes decreased $301,195 from 2013. The end of Calendar Year 2014 property values increased by 8.1%.

• Investment income declined 45.11% from the prior year. This $53,416 decline resulted from significant declines in cash balances invested (due to construction projects), as well as decreases in the rate of return for these funds.

• Utility and Franchise Tax revenues increased $238,672 over the prior year. This increase of 11.6% was the result of a full year’s benefit of the Public Service Tax on water consumption and overall utility usage.

• Intergovernmental income increased $60,936 over the revenue for 2013. This increase related to revenues received from the county for the Community Redevelopment Agency and various State revenue sharing sources.


- 34 -

Expenses for governmental activities increased slightly, 4.83% over 2013 amounts. The most significant increases related to General Government ($19,994), Public Safety ($202,213), and Culture and Recreation ($153,393). There was a small decrease in Transportation of $13,833. The increase in General Government includes increased legal service fees and additional employee benefits; while the Public Safety increase resulted from higher contract costs; and the increase in Culture and Recreation was primarily caused by the improvements made to Manatee Sanctuary Park. The decline in Transportation expense was created by a decrease in activity on the North Atlantic Avenue Project.

Financial Analysis of the Government’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 reporting of governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of the City’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. Although the City has experienced a decrease in economic activity during prior years, the tide is turning. Strategic efforts and plans have been put in place which will spur much needed economic growth. The City continues to implement various cost-effective initiatives, including the streamlining of processes to effectively utilize its assets. In the current year, the City issued a $5.5 Capital Improvement Revenue Note to fund various needed capital improvements. The impact of this cash infusion, which had been only partially expended at September 30, 2014, is evident in the improved fund balance for governmental funds. As of the end of the current fiscal year, the total fund balance of the City’s governmental funds was $9,768,462, an increase of $2,614,321 or 36.54% from the prior fiscal year. The General Fund, the City’s main governmental fund, experienced an overall increase in fund balance of $2,850,666 or 45.7%. The most significant reason for this increase is the revenue note mentioned above.

General Government

The General Fund is the City’s chief operating fund. At the end of the current fiscal year, total fund balance was $9,091,797. Of this amount $124,668 relates to inventory and prepaids as well as long term advances and is therefore nonspendable. The remaining fund balance includes restricted ($430,314), committed ($5,024,941), assigned ($485,543), and unassigned ($3,026,331).

- 37 -

The City maintains three additional major governmental funds. The Cape Canaveral CRA Fund reflects a negative unassigned fund balance of ($62,968) at September 30, 2014. The fund balance represents the difference between revenues and expenditures. The Capital Construction Fund has restricted fund balance for capital expansion of $492,118 at year end. This represents a $232,237 decline over 2013 caused primarily by capital outlay expenditures during 2014 for construction of the New Fire Station. The Enterprise Capital Fund also has negative unassigned fund balance at September 30, 2014 of ($126,763). Capital expenditures in this fund related to major Wastewater/Stormwater Projects. Nonmajor Special Revenue funds maintained fund balances at the end of the fiscal year of:

• Police Education Fund $17,159 • Fire Protection Fund $22,046 • School Crossing Guard $2,691 • Library Fund $325,808 • Special Law Enforcement Trust $6,574

Unrestricted net position of the Wastewater Utility Fund at the end of the year amounted to $2,066,982, and the Stormwater Utility amounted to $773,028. The total decrease in net position for both funds was $363,571 and $34,284, respectively. Other factors concerning the finances of these two funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the City’s business-type activities. General Fund Budgetary Highlights At the end of FY14, as of result of amendments made during the year, the final amended budget increased $2,921,090 from the adopted budget. The most significant change was related to the issuance of the $5.5 Capital Improvement Revenue Note and the appropriation of the same.

Final Budget

Original Budget

During the year, actual revenues on a budgetary basis were $8,625,707. This was lower than the final budgetary estimate of $9,539,076 primarily attributable to budgeted amounts in miscellaneous revenue related to sale of fixed assets and plan review income. Licenses and Permits revenue exceeded budgeted amounts by $8,500. This shortfall in revenue was offset by actual expenditures for General Government that were $3,969,807 less than budgeted, transportation costs that were $33,093 more than budgeted and Capital Outlay expenditures below budget by $33,606. The General Government under budget variance represents revenue note proceeds appropriated but unspent at September 30, 2014. Capital Asset and Debt Administration Capital assets. The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of September 30, 2014, amounts to $34,232,581, net of accumulated depreciation. This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings and system improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, roads and construction work in progress. The City’s investment in capital assets increased $3,383,345; $2,577,140 (16.3%) in governmental activities and $806,205 (5.4%) for business-type activities. Significant capital asset events during the current fiscal year included the following:

• Manatee Sanctuary Park experienced an amazing uplift with paving of the parking lot and the half mile pedway.

• Refurbishment of the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) Main Building was initiated in May 2014 and included the construction of new restrooms, storage areas, a training room, kitchen facilities, a second floor Operations Control Room, a bleach system building and hardening of the exterior of the Building to code requirements. The renovation was completed in December 2014.


- 39 -

• An Emergency Generator was installed in fall 2014 at Lift Station #4 on Coquina Drive in the Harbor Heights neighborhood. This Lift Station is the 5th in the City to be modified to include an emergency generator for use during long power outages.

• The City maintained an active stormwater system maintenance program. Activities included the replacement of older style stormwater inlets with new Type “C” inlets. These newer inlets require less maintenance, are not damaged as easily by vehicular traffic, prohibit larger debris from entering the stormwater system and provide improved stormwater flow. Exfiltration piping was also installed at two locations in 2014 where significant street flooding occurred after heavy rainfall events. Street sweeping of all curbed streets also continues on a monthly basis.

• In September 2014, the City completed the construction of a new Fire Station. This state of the art facility will provide Cape Canaveral and the surrounding community with increased emergency support and project increased confidence in the community as a whole.

• The New City Hall project got well under way through the purchase of 196 Polk Ave to house the Community and Economic Development (CED) and Building/Code Enforcement Staff; the demolition of the old CED building; Site Plan Development and Architectural and Engineering Design.

Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates

• The unemployment rate decreased from 7.8% in the prior year to 6.4%.

• The real estate market continues to trend upward. Property values for Calendar Year 2014 showed an increase of 8.1%. The median home sales price rose to $137,157 up from $126,880 at the end of 2013.

• Cape Canaveral, as well as Brevard County, continues to show improvement due to increased industry growth at the Kennedy Space Center and Canaveral Air Force Station; increased Aerospace and High Technological Manufacturing Companies such as Embraer S.A. and Northrup Grumman’s expansion at the Melbourne International Airport; and numerous service-oriented companies countywide.

• In an effort to take advantage of the opportunities provided by the City’s proximity to Port Canaveral, Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Kennedy Space Center, two International Airports, and Orlando, the City is actively pursuing economic development/redevelopment through its creation of the Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA).

• The City has and will continue to increase its revenue stream. An increase to the wastewater rate in October 2013, and the first full year benefit from the Public Service Tax on water consumption enhanced revenue. The City maintained Ad valorem taxes at fiscal 2013 rates in the 2014 budget by implementing a millage rate that represented the rolled-back rate.

All of these factors were considered in preparing the City’s budget for the 2015 fiscal year.

In evaluating the City as a reporting entity, management has addressed all potential component units for which the entity may or may not be financially accountable and, as such, be included within the City's financial statements.

(b) Blended component unit⎯A blended component unit, although legally separate, is, in substance, part of the City’s operations. The following entities are blended with the primary government and reported as indicated:

The Cape Canaveral Free Public Library fund is responsible for exterior maintenance and risk management of the City-owned library. The members of the advisory board are appointed by the City Council and are tasked to act on the City’s behalf. Funding for these specific purposes are derived by voter-approved ad valorem taxes and the legal liability remains with the City Council. Library operations are funded through the Brevard County Free Public Library District (the District), a separate taxing authority, and is therefore not included under the reporting entity definition of the City’s financial statements.

The Cape Canaveral Community Redevelopment Agency (the Cape Canaveral CRA) was created by Ordinance No. 23-2013 to account for the receipt and expenditure of property tax revenues from the tax increment financing district to support City redevelopment in the designated community redevelopment area. Although legally separate, the City Council declared itself to be the Cape Canaveral CRA. Since the City is financially accountable for the activities of the Cape Canaveral CRA, its governing board is the same, and its relationship to the City is significant, its financial activities are reported on a blended basis as if it were part of the primary government as a major special revenue fund.

(c) Government-wide and fund financial statements⎯The government-wide financial statements, comprised of the statement of position and the statement of activities, report aggregated information for the overall government for all of the activities of the primary government. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange revenues are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely, to a significant extent, on fees charged to external parties for goods or services for support.

(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: (Continued)

The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or activity is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or activity. Program revenues include (l) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or activity, and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or activity. Taxes and other nonexchange revenues not properly included among program revenues are reported as general revenues.

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported in separate columns in the fund financial statements.

(d) Measurement focus, basis of accounting, and financial statement presentation⎯The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period except for grant revenues which are considered earned when expenditures are incurred. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.

Property taxes, franchise taxes, intergovernmental revenues, licenses and permits, charges for services, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when the government receives cash.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

The City reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund⎯The General Fund is the principal fund of the City which accounts for all financial transactions not accounted for in other funds.

Cape Canaveral Community Redevelopment Fund⎯The Cape Canaveral CRA Fund accounts for the receipt and expenditure of property tax revenues from the tax increment financing district to support City redevelopment in the Cape Canaveral community redevelopment area.

Capital Construction Fund⎯The Capital Construction Fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made for the acquisition of land and construction of major capital facilities related to governmental funds.

Enterprise Capital Fund⎯The Enterprise Capital Fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made for the acquisition of land and construction of major capital facilities related to business-type funds.

The City reports the following major proprietary funds:

Wastewater Fund⎯The Wastewater Fund accounts for the activities of the City’s wastewater system. The City operates the sewage treatment plant, sewage pumping stations, collection, and reclaimed water systems, which are financially similar to private business enterprises, where the costs, including depreciation, of providing services to the general public on an ongoing basis are financed through user charges.

Stormwater Fund⎯The Stormwater Fund is used to account for the activities of the City’s stormwater management, conservation, protection, control, use and enhancement of stormwater, the costs of which are recovered by user charges.

Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:

Special Revenue Funds⎯These funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than capital projects) which are legally restricted or committed to finance particular functions or activities of the City.

Amounts reported in the funds as interfund receivables and payables have been eliminated in the governmental and business-type activities columns, except for the net residual amounts due between governmental and business-type activities, which are presented as internal balances due to and due from these different types of activities within the primary government.

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing activities. For the City, operating revenues come from fees for wastewater and stormwater services, which are the principal ongoing operations of the City's Wastewater and Stormwater Fund. Operating expenses include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

- 57 -


(e) Budgets and budgetary accounting⎯Annual budgets for all governmental and proprietary funds were adopted in compliance with Florida law. The basis on which the budgets are prepared is consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Budgetary integration is established in the accounting records for management control purposes at the object of expenditure level; however the City Charter establishes the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed the total City-wide appropriations. The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:

(i) On or before June 30th, the City Manager submits a preliminary budget to the City Council for the ensuing fiscal year.

(ii) Budget workshop sessions are scheduled by the City Manager as needed.

(iii) Prior to October 1, the budgets are legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.

(iv) The City Council reviews the monthly financial reports.

(v) The City Manager has the authority to approve budget transfers between line items, expenditure classifications, and departments. The City Council must approve all inter-departmental budget amendments and/or transfers that increase the total appropriations. Budgetary control is exercised at the fund level.

(vi) Every appropriation lapses at the close of the fiscal year.

(f) Cash and cash equivalents⎯Cash and cash equivalents include amounts in demand deposits as well as investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash. Investments with original maturities of three months or less are considered to be cash equivalents. In addition, investments in money market funds are sufficiently liquid to permit withdrawal of cash at any time without prior notice or penalty, thus equity in these funds is also deemed to be a cash equivalent.

(g) Receivables⎯Accounts receivable balances are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances. The City contracts with the City of Cocoa, Florida for utility billing services. Therefore, included in the accounts receivables balances, are amounts which have been billed on behalf of the City, but not yet collected; amounts which have been collected by the City of Cocoa, but not yet remitted to the City; and amounts earned by the City, but have not been billed to the customers as of September 30, 2014.

(h) Inventories and prepaid items⎯The cost of inventory is accounted for on the consumption method wherein inventories are charged as expenditures when used rather than when purchased. All inventories are valued at cost, which approximates market, by using the first-in, first-out valuation method.

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. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.

(i) Restricted assets⎯Certain amounts are classified as restricted assets because their use is limited by applicable debt covenants or laws/regulations imposed by other governmental agencies. The restricted assets are used to report resources set aside to 1) provide a reserve for debt service, 2) provide for capital expansion, and 3) acquire capital assets.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

- 58 -


(j) Capital assets⎯Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets, are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Property, plant, and equipment with initial, individual costs that equal or exceed $1,000 and estimated useful lives of over one year are recorded as capital assets. Capital assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost, if purchased or constructed. Contributed assets are recorded at fair market value as of the date received.

Depreciation is reported for the primary government using the straight-line method calculated on a service-life basis to amortize the cost of the asset over their estimated economic useful lives, which are as follows:

Assets Years

Buildings and improvements 30 - 50 Improvements other than buildings 3 - 20 Machinery and equipment 3 - 20 Infrastructure 30 - 50

(k) Zoning escrow⎯This liability is comprised of amounts received from private business to be used on their behalf for special projects. If the funds are not used, they are to be returned to the private business. Amounts used are not reported as revenues or expenditures in the accompanying financial statements.

(l) Compensated absences⎯The City records the earned portion of accumulated, unused compensated absences at year-end based on each employee’s unused hours and rate of pay, including the City’s share of payroll taxes. All compensated absences are accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements as accrued liabilities. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations or retirements.

(m) Unearned revenue and deposits⎯Unearned revenue and deposits of $527,754 are recorded on the governmental fund balance sheet. This represents local business tax receipts collected in advance, and funds received from Brevard County for the North Atlantic Avenue Streetscape Project. Tax receipts are recognized as revenue in the period to which they relate. Monies for the streetscape project are recognized as revenue as the City incurs allowable costs associated with this project.

(n) Long-term obligations⎯In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position.

(o) Fund balance⎯Fund balance of governmental funds is reported in various categories based on the nature of any limitations requiring the use of resources for specific purposes. The following classifications describe the relative strength of the spending constraints:

Nonspendable fund balance - amounts that are not in spendable form (such as prepaid expenses and advances due from other funds) or are required to be maintained intact.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

- 59 -


Restricted fund balance - amounts constrained to specific purposes by their providers (such as grantors, bondholders, and higher levels of government), through constitutional provisions or by enabling legislation.

Committed fund balance - amounts constrained to specific purposes by the City itself, via a City Council ordinance. To be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the City changes the constraint via ordinance.

Assigned fund balance - amounts the City intends to use for a specific purpose, but do not meet the criteria to be classified as committed. The City Council has by resolution, authorized the city manager to assign fund balance.

Unassigned fund balance - amounts that are available for any purpose. Positive amounts are reported only in the general fund.

Disbursements of fund balance reserves will first be made from restricted amounts when both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available. Additionally, the City will first use committed fund balance, followed by assigned fund balance, and then unassigned fund balance when expenditures are incurred for purposes which amounts in any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.

(p) General fund balance policy⎯The City has adopted an ordinance whereby the minimum unassigned fund balance must be at least 20% of the current fiscal year original budgeted expenditures.

(q) Use of estimates⎯Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Those estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenue and expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates assumed in preparing the financial statements.

(r) Implementation of new accounting standards⎯At September 30, 2014 and for the year then ended, the City has implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported As Assets and Liabilities. See Note 16 for the effect of GASB 65 on beginning net position.

(2) Reconciliation of Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements:

(a) Reconciliation of the balance sheet of the governmental funds to the statement of net position⎯Following the governmental fund balance sheet is a reconciliation between fund balance - total governmental funds and net position – governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of net position. A detailed explanation of these differences is provided in the above referenced financial statement.

(b) Reconciliation of the statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances of governmental funds to the statement of activities⎯Following the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances, there is a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances – total governmental funds and changes in net position of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. A detailed explanation of these differences is provided in the above referenced financial statement.

(3) Property Tax Calendar:

Under Florida law, the assessment of all properties and the collection of all county, municipal and school district property taxes are consolidated in the offices of the County Property Appraiser and County Tax Collector. The laws of the state regulating tax assessment are also designed to assure a consistent property valuation method statewide. State Statutes permit municipalities to levy property taxes at a rate of up to 10 mills.

The millage rate assessed by the City on the tax roll certified on November 1, 2013 was 3.9102 mills (.4816 for beautification projects; .0709 for the library fund, 1.4390 for fire rescue, and 1.9187 for police operations).

The property tax calendar is as follows:

Valuation Date January 1

(4) Deposits and Investments:

Deposits: All bank balance deposit amounts are covered by federal depository insurance or collateral with the State of Florida under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act.

The Florida Security for Public Deposits Act establishes guidelines for qualification and participation by banks and savings associations, procedures for the administration of the collateral requirements, and characteristics of eligible collateral. Under the Act, City deposits in qualified public depositories are fully insured. The qualified public depository must pledge 50% of the average daily balance for each month of all public deposits in excess of any applicable depository insurance. Additional collateral, up to a maximum of 125% may be required if deemed necessary under the conditions set forth in the Act. Obligations pledged to secure deposits must be delivered to the State Treasurer, or with the approval of the State Treasurer, to a bank, savings association, or trust company provided a power of attorney is delivered to the Treasurer.

Investments: The City’s investment policies are governed by state statutes and City Ordinances. As of September 30, 2014, the City follows guidelines of authorized investments under Section 218.415(17), Florida Statutes. Investments authorized under this provision of the state statutes are limited to: the Florida Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (SBA), or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; interest bearing time deposits or savings accounts in state-certified qualified public depositories; direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury, and securities of, or other interests in, any open-end or closed-end management-type investment company or investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.

At September 30, 2014, the City had the following deposits and investments included in cash and cash equivalents:

(4) Deposits and Investments: (Continued)

Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of investments. In accordance with the provisions of the state statutes governing allowable investments, the City manages its exposure to declines in fair values by limiting the maturity of specific investments to provide sufficient liquidity to pay obligations as they come due.

Credit Risk: Credit rate risk is the risk of losses due to the failure of the security issue or backer. This is mitigated by investing in the assets allowed under State Ordinance and by diversifying the portfolio so that potential losses on individual securities will be minimized.

Custodial Credit Risk: For an investment, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party.

The City’s investments in the Florida Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Investment Pool (LGIP), a Securities and Exchange Commission rule 2a7-like external investment pool, are similar to money market funds in which shares are owned in the fund rather than the underlying investments. The LGIP is administered by the State Board of Administration (SBA) pursuant to section 218.405 of the Florida Statutes.

Fund A, currently known as the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (Florida PRIME), is a Securities and Exchange Commission rule 2a7-like external investment pool. The pool invests in short–term, high-quality fixed income securities. To be considered high-quality, the security must be rated highest in the short-term rating category by one or more nationally recognized statistical ratings organizations, or deemed to be of comparable quality by the investment manager. The account balance of this fund is considered to be the fair value of this investment.

The City also has investments in the State of Florida Division of Treasury’s Special Purpose Investment Account (SPIA), of which the City owns a share of the Pool, not the underlying securities. At June 30, 2014, the fair value factor for the SPIA was 1.0074. Additional valuation information is available in the State of Florida’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, which can be obtained through their website, www.myfloridacfo.com.

Concentrations of Credit Risk: The City’s policy does not limit the amount that can be invested in any one issuer. As of September 30, 2014, all investments of the City are held in the pooled investment accounts administered by the State of Florida.

The outstanding balances between funds result mainly from the time lag between the dates reimbursable expenditures occur, when transactions are recorded in the accounting system, and when payments between funds are made. Individual fund interfund receivables and payables for the primary government at September 30, 2014, are comprised of the following:

The $5,500,000 Capital Improvement Revenue Note, Series 2014 was issued in February 2014 to finance various general government capital improvements and acquisitions including but not limited to a City Hall project, Fire Station, Main Wastewater Treatment Plant Building Refurbishment, and other capital improvements and to pay the cost of issuance related to the financing. The Series 2014 Note is secured by an irrevocable first lien pledge and dedication of the pledged revenues which would consist of (1) public service tax, (2) the City’s local government half-cent sales tax, (3) the guaranteed entitlement portion of the state revenue sharing funds, and (4) franchise fees. The City directly collects the public service taxes, whereas the sales tax, state revenue sharing funds, and franchise fees are collected through third parties and subsequently remitted to the City. The note, which bears interest at 1.99%, is payable semi-annually on February 1 and August 1 of each year until final maturity on February 1, 2024. Total principal remaining to be paid on the note is $5,500,000.

(9) Employees' Retirement Plan:

Established with Resolution No. 2006-13 of the City Council, the City contributes to a defined contribution plan which is administered by the Florida League of Cities, P. O. Box 1757, Tallahassee, FL 32302, and features participant-directed investments. The City established the plan for all regular full time and regular part time employees with one year of employment and 1,000 hours of service each year. All qualifying employees at least 18 years of age participate in the plan on the date of employment. Retirement benefits are available after 5 years of service. Employer contributions to the plan are 7% of the employee gross wages and the City allows for a matching contribution of up to 3% of employee’s basic compensation. Forfeitures are used to reduce the City’s current period contribution requirement.

For the year ended September 30, 2014, employer and matching contributions to the defined contribution plan were $110,609 and $40,134, respectively. The Plan had 30 participating employees as of September 30, 2014.

(10) Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB):

Plan Description⎯Effective October 1, 2009, the City implemented GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting and Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions (OPEB), for certain post-employment healthcare benefits provided by the City. The requirements of this statement were implemented prospectively, with the actuarially determined liability of $56,000 at October 1, 2009, the date of transition, amortized over 10 years. Accordingly, for financial reporting purposes, no liability is reported for the post-employment healthcare benefit liability at the date of transition.

The OPEB Plan is a single-employer benefit plan administered by the City. Retirees are charged what the insurance company charges for the type of coverages elected, however, the premiums charged by the insurance company are based on a blending of the experience among younger active employees and older retired employees. The older retirees actually have a higher cost which means the City is subsidizing the cost of the retiree coverage because it pays all or a significant portion of the premium on behalf of the active employee. GASB No. 45 calls this the “implicit rate subsidy.”

Retirees and their dependents are permitted to remain covered under the City’s respective health care plans as long as they pay a full premium applicable to the coverages elected. This conforms to the minimum required of Florida governmental employers per Chapter 112.08 of Florida Statutes. The OPEB Plan does not issue a stand-alone report.

At July 1, 2013, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, plan participation consisted of:

Active Employees 48 Inactive Employees 0 48


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

(10) Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB): (Continued)

Funding Policy⎯For the OPEB Plan, contribution requirements of the City are established and may be amended through action from the City Council. Currently, the City’s OPEB Benefits are unfunded. The required contributions are based on pay-as-you-go financing requirements. There is no separate Trust fund or equivalent into which the City would make contributions to advance-fund the obligation. Therefore, ultimate subsidies which are provided over time are financed directly by general assets of the City, which are invested in very short-term fixed income instruments according to its current investment policy. The interest rate used to calculate the present value and costs of OPEB must be the long-range expected return on such short-term fixed income instruments. The City selected an interest discount of 4.00% for this purpose.

Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation⎯The City’s annual other post-employment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB No. 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 accrued liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability represents an actuarial measurement of the obligation that has accrued so far based on the promise that has been made to current retirees and to current employees. Since the City’s OPEB is currently unfunded, the offset to that expense comes from actual subsidies paid on behalf of the current retirees and their dependents for the current year. This offset is called the Employer Contribution and equals the total age-adjusted costs paid by the City for coverage for the retirees and their dependents for the year (net of the retiree’s own payments for the year). The components of the annual OPEB cost for the current year, the total contributions and the changes in the net obligation are as follows:

The City’s annual OPEB cost (expense) was $11,000 for the year ended September 30, 2014. The City’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for 2014 with no applicable preceding years were as follows:

In the Statement of Net Position, the City reports a Net OPEB Obligation of $24,289 in governmental activities and $16,711 in business-type activities.

Funding Status and Funding Progress⎯The funding status of the plan as of July 1, 2013, the most recent actuarial valuation date, was as follows:

2014 Fiscal Year

Valuation as of 7/1/2013

Actuarial Accrued Liability (AAL) $ 45,000 Actuarial Value of Plan Assets N/A Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL) 45,000 Funded Ratio (Actuarial Value of Plan Assets/AAL) N/A Covered Payroll (Active Plan Members) $ 2,029,000 UAAL as a Percentage of Covered Payroll 2.2%

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, termination, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and annual required contributions of the City are subject to continual revision and actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions⎯Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the City and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the City and plan members to that point. The projections do not explicitly incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations. The actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

- 72 -


The projected unit cost method is used to determine the Plan’s liabilities and costs. For each participant, benefits earned to date are calculated using projected benefits based on accrual to the date of expected retirement and the participant’s benefit service, when eligible. Costs are attributed from the date of hire to the date first eligible for full benefits. The individual’s service cost is the actuarial present value of the benefit earned at the end of the plan year less the actuarial present value of benefits earned at the beginning of the plan year. The individual’s actuarial accrued liability is the actuarial present value of benefits earned as of the beginning of the plan year.

The following is a summary of the significant actuarial methods and assumptions:

(11) Legal Matters:

The City is engaged in routine litigation incidental to the conduct of its business and municipal affairs. In the opinion of its Counsel, no other legal proceedings are pending against them, not covered by insurance, which would inhibit the City's ability to perform its operations or materially affect its financial condition.

(12) Commitments and Contingencies:

Amounts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies, principally the federal and state governments. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable fund(s). The amount, if any, of expenditures from current or prior years which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the City expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.


SEPTEMBER 30, 2014

(13) Encumbrances:

Encumbrances are reported in the fund balance classification which is going to fund the costs. No funds had any encumbrances outstanding at September 30, 2014.

(14) Risk Management:

The City of Cape Canaveral is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters, all of which are, in the opinion of management, satisfactorily insured by general liability insurance. Commercial insurance policies are also obtained for all other risks of loss, including workers’ compensation and employee health and accident insurance. Settled claims resulting from these risks have not exceeded commercial insurance coverage in any of the past three years.

(15) Restatement of Net Position:

In March 2012, the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued GASB Statement No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities. GASB 65 clarifies the appropriate reporting of deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources to ensure consistency in financial reporting. GASB Concepts Statement (CON) No. 4, Elements of Financial Statements, specifies that recognition of deferred outflows and deferred inflows should be limited to those instances specifically identified in authoritative GASB pronouncements. Consequently, guidance was needed to determine which balances being reported as assets and liabilities should actually be reported as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources, according to the definitions in CON 4. Based on those definitions, GASB 65 reclassifies certain items currently being reported as assets and liabilities as deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources. In addition, GASB 65 recognizes certain items currently being reported as assets and liabilities as outflows of resources and inflows of resources. The implementation of GASB 65 resulted in the removal of unamortized bond issuance costs as of September 30, 2013 and resulted in the reduction of beginning unrestricted net position in the government-wide statement of net assets by the same amount. The effect of the restatement on the impacted reporting units beginning net position is as follows:

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

To the Honorable Mayor, City Council, and City Manager, City of Cape Canaveral, Florida:

We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, (the City) as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 17, 2015.

Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City’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’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or 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.

Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

- 118 -

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City’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.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

To the Honorable Mayor, City Council, and City Manager, City of Cape Canaveral, Florida

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the financial statements of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida (the City), as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, and have issued our report thereon dated March 17, 2015.

The legal authority for the primary government of the reporting entity is disclosed in Note 1 of the basic financial statements.

- 120 -

Financial Condition

Section 10.554 (1)(i)5.a., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we report the results of our determination as to whether or not the City has met one or more of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes, and identification of the specific conditions met. In connection with our audit, we determined that the City did not meet any of the conditions described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes.

Pursuant to Sections 10.554(1)(i)5.c. and 10.556(8), Rules of the Auditor General, we applied financial condition assessment procedures. It is management’s responsibility to monitor the City’s financial condition, and our financial condition assessment was based in part on representations made by management and the review of financial information provided by same.

Annual Financial Report

Section 10.554(1)(i)6.b., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we report the results of our determination as to whether the annual financial report for the City, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, filed with the Florida Department of Financial Services pursuant to Section 218.32(1)(a), Florida Statutes, is in agreement with the annual financial audit report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. In connection with our audit, we determined these two reports were in agreement.

Other Matters

Section 10.554(1)(i)2., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we address in the management letter any recommendations to improve financial management. In connection with our audit, we noted no such recommendations.

Section 10.554(1)(i)3., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we address noncompliance with provisions of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse, that have occurred, or are likely to have occurred, that have an effect on the financial statements that is less than material but which warrants the attention of those charged with governance. In connection with our audit, we did not have any such findings.

Purpose of this Letter

Our management letter is intended solely for the information and use of the Legislative Auditing Committee, members of the Florida Senate and the Florida House of Representatives, the Florida Auditor General, Federal and other granting agencies, and applicable management and the City Council, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
