Commission Memorandum
REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission
FROM: Brian LaMeres, City Controller
Anna Rosenberry, Director of Administrative Services
(to be presented by Kyla Stafford of Anderson ZurMuehlen & Co., P.C.)
SUBJECT: Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for Fiscal Year 2013-2014
MEETING DATE: December 22, 2014
BACKGROUND: Section 2-7-503 MCA requires that a financial report be prepared for every fiscal
year. This statute also requires a biannual audit of this report – including the accounts, financial records,
and transactions of all administrative departments of the City – by independent certified public
accountants selected by the City Commission. The City Commission and City Administration have
historically believed that an annual audit provides a higher level of financial assurance and fiscal integrity
than a biannual audit, and this intention is expressed in Section 5.09 of the City Charter. This policy,
along with the State legal reporting requirement, has been followed for fiscal year 2014, and the clean
unmodified opinion expressed by the audit firm of Anderson ZurMuehlen & Co., P.C) has been included
in the accompanying CAFR report. At its meeting on December 15, 2014, the City’s Audit Committee
reviewed and voted unanimously to accept the CAFR and the accompanying letter to management.
RECOMMENDATION: The City Commission accepts the CAFR and accompanying reports.
NOTE:
FISCAL EFFECTS: A clean unmodified audit opinion on the City’s financial statements is viewed favorably by investment analysts and strengthens the City’s ability
to issue bonds or other debt at a lower interest cost.
ALTERNATIVES: The CAFR is being presented in DRAFT form in case the Commission desires any changes to be made before the final printing.

To the Citizens of the

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
CITY OF BOZEMAN PROFILE
The City of Bozeman was incorporated in April of 1883 with a city council form of government, and later in January 1922 transitioned to its current city
manager/city commission form of government. Bozeman encompasses an area over 18 square miles and is located on the eastern slope of the Rocky Mountains.
The 2012 census put Bozeman's population at 38,695 which is a total increase of 37.90% from 2000 to 2012 and making it the fourth largest city in the state.
Bozeman is at the county seat of Gallatin County and is the home to Montana State University –Bozeman, and the fighting Bobcats.
The government provides a full range of services. These services include police and fire protection; sanitation services; water, waste water & storm water
utilities; the construction and maintenance of streets and infrastructure; recreational activities; cultural events; planning and zoning; and general administrative
services. The City, as a primary government, is supported or works closely with certain entities to provide these services to the citizens of the City of Bozeman.
Of these entities, Bozeman Public Library Foundation, Inc. is considered a component unit subject to the requirements for inclusion as a discretely presented
component unit. The City Planning Board is presented as a blended component unit. The Bozeman Public Library Board of Trustees, Senior Advisory Council
and the Parking Commission are excluded from presentation in these financial statements, since their relationship with the City is strictly advisory in nature at
this time.
BUDGET DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
The City of Bozeman budget serves several purposes. For the citizens of the City of Bozeman, it presents a picture of the city government operations and
intentions for the year. For the City Commission, it serves as a policy tool and as an expression of goals and objectives. For City Management, it is used as an
operating guide and a control mechanism.
The City Manager’s Recommended Budget is created and submitted to the City Commission. Public work sessions are then held by the Commissioners at
which time the City Manager, Administrative Services Director, and department staff explain the budget recommendations and underlying justification for the
requests. The Commission also reviews departmental requests which could not be funded, as an indication of unmet needs. During (or following) the work
sessions, the Commissioners may make adjustments to the proposed budget. Following any adjustments to the City Manager's budget recommendation, a
tentative appropriation ordinance is prepared and a public hearing is held. The Commission may again make adjustments to the budget following the public
hearing, after which time, the Commission passes the appropriation ordinance in final form.
Fiscal Year 14 marked the second year in a row, where the final budget was adopted before start of the year. It was completed in late April and presented in
early May with an adoption of a final budget before June 30th. This revised budget calendar was developed in Fiscal Year 13 in an effort to improve
understandability of our financial plans and to improve staff and commission efficiency. The overall goal of the City’s financial policies is to establish and
maintain effective management of the City’s financial resources.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
The Bureau of Business and Economic Research (BBER) is the research and public service branch of the
University of Montana’s School of Business Administration. The Bureau is regularly involved in a wide variety
of activities, including economic analysis and forecasting. Excerpts from the Bureau’s forecasts contained in the
spring 2014 issue of the Montana Business Quarterly relating to Gallatin County and City of Bozeman are stated
below.
The economic growth figures for Gallatin County received a one-time boost due to the sale of RightNow
Technologies to Oracle. Because of the way in which the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics counts things, the stock
options of RightNow employees were included in reported wages during 2011 and 2012. The negative growth in
2013 is simply the arithmetic consequence of the large one-time increases in earlier years. Even after correcting
for this event, Gallatin County is tied with Flathead County and trails only Bakken-fueled Yellowstone County in
terms of overall economic growth since the recession trough in 2009.
Gallatin County’s construction industry was particularly hit hard and has recently only shown a hint of
recovery. The recent growth has been due to stability in the traditional basic industries such as Montana State
University, nonresident travel, and high-tech manufacturing combined with robust expansion in Bozeman’s role
as a regional trade and service center.
Montana State University is the largest basic industry in Gallatin County, accounting for about 32 percent of
total basic earnings. Growth in contract research rather than state funding has maintained the contribution of
MSU despite wage freezes and other recession-related impacts on government. Bozeman’s high-tech sector
includes firms in manufacturing and professional services (software), and accounts for another 32 percent of
basic earnings.
The forecasts call for increases to be 4 percent or greater between 2014 and 2017. Gallatin County is projected
to be the fastest growing urban area in the state. The end of the wage freeze at Montana State University,
continued moderate recovery in construction, increases in nonresident travel as Americans once again take
vacations, and strength in the high-tech industries will fuel the economic growth.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
FOR THE YEAR
Significant Changes During Fiscal Year 2014:
Increased Building Permit Activities:The Building Inspection division has seen strong permit issuance over the past 12 months. While never completely
stopping, building construction significantly slowed during the recession. For fiscal year 2014, the total value of Building Permits for New Construction is
approximately 130% of the previous year. Remodel and addition activity also continues to be strong. As vacant, buildable lots are consumed, we expect to see
increased planning and subdivision activity. The City added building inspection staff and outside contracts mid-year to keep up with workload demands.
Increased Citizen Participation with Online City Hall Budget Forum:Online City Hall is a new interactive tool for citizens to provide feedback to
the City on a variety of topics. The forum was installed in Fiscal Year 2014 as a way to utilize social media features to “welcome citizen involvement”,
furthering our core value of Teamwork.
MMIA Declaratory Action:In December 2009, the Montana Supreme Court ruled against the City in our appeal of Delaney v. City of Bozeman. At issue
was the City’s purchase of the Mandeville Farm property in 2003. Delaney was awarded $3 Million. The City and Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority
(MMIA) sought judicial determination on the amounts owed by each party. In April 2012, a District Court in Helena determined that the City owed the full
amount. The City filed an appeal with the Montana Supreme Court. Prior to a determination by the Court, the City and MMIA settled the case. Under the terms
of the settlement, the City is to pay the MMIA a total of $2 Million over a 3 year period. The second of three payments was made in Fiscal Year 14.
Refinance of Water & Wastewater System Loans:The City has outstanding loans with the Montana Department of Natural Resources and Conservation
(DNRC) to finance the construction of the Water Plant and the Water Reclamation Facility. In August 2013, the DNRC approved, and the City adopted, an
interest rate reduction from 3.75% to 3.00%. The decrease will save the Water Fund and average of $83,535 per year, totaling $1,670,694 over the remaining
life of the loan. The decrease will save the Wastewater Fund an average of $99,047 per year, totaling $1,782,853 over the remaining life of the loan.
Energy Saving Projects:There was an in-depth audit of City buildings and facilities for potential energy savings. The firm McKinstry was selected as
the energy performance contractor for this assessment. They have very recently delivered a preliminary report that outlines a number of energy-saving projects
and identifies estimated “payback” periods, where energy savings will cover the costs of the improvements. They also expect to issue another report in the fall
of 2014 that will add projects to the analysis that couldn’t be considered due to time constraints in the spring.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
Beall Park Recreation Center
FOR THE YEAR (CONTINUED)
Gallatin College Received Voter Support:On November 4th, 2013, Gallatin County voters passed a modest property tax increase to support and expand
job-training and two-year education at Gallatin College. The 1.5 mill levy will cost a median home owner $4.15/year, raising $370,000/year to support the
College. This levy also fulfills a requirement set by the Montana Board of Regents in 2010 when the board approved putting the MSU-Bozeman campus in
charge of the two-year program. As result of voter approval, the City will no longer budget 1.5 mills out of its all purpose levy/general fund.
FOR THE FUTURE
Family Aquatics Center:Previous studies have identified the limited life-span
of Bogert Pool, the City’s only public outdoor swimming pool. There is money set
aside for the design of a replacement facility for Bogert Pool so that a voter-approved
bond measure can be considered in the future.
Storm Water Utility:In 2012 the City created its Storm Water Utility. During the
last two years, the City has been working to identify assessment methodologies,
infrastructure locations and conditions, and develop a funding plan for future storm
water improvements. It has been decided that citizens will be assessed based on an
“impervious surface” method rather than the current “meter-sized” method. The
impervious surface method of assessment is expected to begin in the second half of
Fiscal Year 2015.
Transportation System:The City’s network of streets, sidewalks, and intersections continues to be a significant concern. In the developing areas of the
City, expansion and completion of the system is a hurdle; in the older areas of town, reconstruction and replacement are our pressing tasks. The City plans to
develop a sustainable transportation management and funding model.
Voter Approval of the Trails, Open Space, and Parks (TOP) Bond $15 Million:In November 2012, City voters approved the issuance of $15 Million
in General Obligation Bonds to fund trail, open space, and park (TOP) projects. In December 2013, the City issued $9.9 Million of those bonds. Since that time,
nearly $14 Million has been allocated to specific projects through a TOP application process. Staff will be working over the coming months to complete land
acquisition and project construction. The City anticipates the issuance of the remaining $5.1 Million in December of 2014.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
FOR THE FUTURE
Police & Municipal Court Facility:In 2014, the City swapped land with the Montana Department of Transportation for an 8-acre parcel of land on Rouse
to build a new police and municipal court facility. Design of the facility was completed in fiscal year 2014. In November 2014, the City will be asking voters
to approve approximately $22 Million in General Obligation bonds plus an operations levy to build the facility and operate into the future.
Other
Design and construction of a landfill soil gas remediation system.
Pursue building a Bozeman convention center.
Develop a plan for the City to get broadband for growing local businesses.
Water Pipe Replacement Program -approximately $1M every year for the construction of necessary water system replacement work.
Waste Water Pipe Replacement Program –approximately $1M every year for the construction of necessary sewer system replacement work.
Intersection Control -approximately $750,000 every year for improved traffic flow and safety at various intersections.
Widen Cottonwood Road from West Babcock to Oak Street.
Continue implementation of financial plans and asset management systems to properly maintain and replace the City’s infrastructure and facilities.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
FINANCIAL POLICIES
The overall goal of the City's financial policies is to establish and maintain effective management of the city's financial resources. Formal policy statements and
major objectives provide the foundation for achieving this goal.
The City avoids budgetary practices that balance current expenditures at the expense of meeting future years' expenses and seeks to maintain a diversified and
stable revenue base that is estimated in a realistic and conservative manner. For one-time revenues, highest priority is given to the funding of capital assets or
other non-recurring expenditures.
On-going expenditures are limited to levels which can be supported by current revenues. Construction projects and capital purchases of $10,000 or more are
included in the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). Minor capital outlays of less than $10,000 are included in the regular operating budget.
Spending of resources happen in the following order (they are categorized according to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for state and local
governments, with the following general definitions):
Restricted --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 --Amounts constrained to specific purposes by the City Commission; to be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other
purpose unless the City Commission takes action to remove or change the constraint.
Assigned --Amounts the City intends to use for a specific purpose; intent can be expressed by the Commission or by an official or body to which the
Commission delegates the authority. The City Commission delegates this authority to the City Manager.
Unassigned --Amounts that are available for any purpose; these amounts are reported only in the General Fund.
Long-term debt is limited to capital improvements which cannot be financed from current revenues and repays borrowed funds within a period that does not
exceed the expected useful life of the project. The City does not use long-term debt for financing current operations and adheres to a policy of full public
disclosure with regard to the issuance of debt.
A minimum level of general fund reserve equal to 16.67% of annual revenues is maintained. This reserve is committed to be used for: cash flow purposes,
accrued employee payroll benefits which are not shown as a liability, unanticipated equipment acquisition and replacement, and to enable the city to meet
unexpected expenditure demands or revenue shortfalls.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
FINANCIAL POLICIES (CONTINUED)
The City manages and accounts for its financial activity in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), as set forth by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
The city maintains its accounting records for general governmental operations on a modified accrual basis, with revenues recorded when available and
measurable, and expenditures recorded when services or goods are received and liabilities incurred. Accounting records for proprietary fund types and similar
trust funds are maintained on an accrual basis, with all revenues recorded when earned and expenses recorded at the time liabilities are incurred, without regard
to receipt or payment of cash.
Internal Controls
Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable (but not absolute) assurance of the safeguarding of assets against loss, theft or misuse. They are
also designed to aid in the reliability of financial records. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the
benefits likely to be derived and that the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
In developing and evaluating the City’s accounting system, great consideration is given to the adequacy of internal accounting controls. We believe that the
City of Bozeman’s internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of financial transactions.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit
The State of Montana requires a biannual audit of the books of accounts, financial records, and transactions of all administrative departments of the City by
independent certified accountants selected by the City Commission. It is the belief of the City Commission and Executive staff that an annual audit assures a
higher level of financial management and fiscal responsibility. This policy, along with the legal requirements, has been complied with and the auditors' opinion
of Anderson, ZurMuehlen & Co. P.C., has been included in this report.
Awards
The Government Finance Officers' Association (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Bozeman
for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2013. This was the 30th consecutive year that the City has received this
prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the City published an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual
financial report. This report satisfied both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the
Certificate of Achievement Program's requirement and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
Acknowledgements
The preparation of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report on a timely basis was made possible by the dedicated service of the entire staff of the Finance
Department, with special appreciation extended to Assistant Controller Lieveka White. Each member of the department has our sincere appreciation for the
contributions made in the preparation of this report.
In closing, without the leadership and support of the governing body of the City, preparation of this report would not have been possible.

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 Bozeman, Montana (the City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2014, and related notes to the financial
statements which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s 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 City of Bozeman, Montana, as of June 30, 2014,
and the respective changes in financial position, and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison
information –General Fund and Special Revenue Major Funds, and Schedule of Funding Progress -Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) 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 City of Bozeman’s basic financial
statements. The introductory section and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards and other supplemental information, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes
of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit
Organizations, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The schedule of expenditures of federal awards and other supplemental information, as listed in the table of contents,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 schedule of expenditures of federal awards and other supplemental information, as listed in the table of contents, are fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory section and statistical section 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 December 22, 2014, 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
JUNE 30, 2014
Our discussion and analysis of the City of Bozeman’s financial performance provides an overview of the City’s financial activities for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2014. Please read it in conjunction with the transmittal letter on page 1 and the City’s financial statements, which begin on page 34.
USING THIS ANNUAL REPORT
This annual report consists of a series of financial statements. The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities (on pages 34 and 35) provide
information about the activities of the City as a whole and present a longer-term view of the City’s finances. Fund financial statements start on page 36. For
governmental activities, these statements tell how these services were financed in the short term as well as what remains for future spending. Fund financial
statements also report the City’s operations in more detail than the government-wide statements by providing information about the City’s most significant
funds. The remaining statements provide financial information about activities for which the City acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of those
outside of the government.
Reporting the City as a Whole
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities
Our analysis of the City as a whole begins on page 23. One of the most important questions asked about the City’s finances is, “Is the City as a whole better off
or worse off as a result of the year’s activities?” The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole and
about its activities in a way that helps answer this question. These statements include all assets and liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting,which is
similar to the accounting used by most private-sector companies. All of the current year’s revenues and expenses are taken into account regardless of when
cash is received or paid.
These two statements report the City’s net position and changes in net position. You can think of the City’s net position, the difference between assets, what
the citizens own, and liabilities, what the citizens owe, as one way to measure the City’s financial health, or financial position. Over time, increases or
decreases in the City’s net position are one indicator of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. You will need to consider other nonfinancial
factors, however, such as changes in the City’s property tax base, income tax base, and the condition of the City’s capital assets (roads, buildings, water and
sewer lines) to assess the overall health of the City.
In the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, we divide the City into two kinds of activities:
Governmental activities—Most of the City’s basic services are reported here, including police, fire, public works, parks, and general administration.
Property taxes, state shared revenues, court fines, and recreation fees finance most of these activities.
Business-type activities—The City charges a fee to customers to help it cover all or most of the cost of certain services it provides. The City’s water,
waste water, storm water, solid waste, and parking systems are reported here.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2014
Reporting the City’s Most Significant Funds
Fund Financial Statements
Our analysis of the City’s funds begins on page 28. The fund financial statements begin on page 36 and provide detailed information about the most significant
funds, not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law and by bond covenants. However, the City Commission establishes
many other funds to help it control and manage money for particular purposes (like Street Maintenance District Funds) or to show that it is meeting legal
responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants, and other money (like grants received from the Environmental Protection Agency). The City’s two kinds of
funds, governmental and proprietary, use different accounting approaches.
Governmental funds--Most of the City’s basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus on how money flows into and out of those funds and
the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. These funds are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual accounting, which
measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the
City’s general government operations and the basic services it provides. Governmental fund information helps you determine whether there are more or fewer
financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City’s programs. We describe the relationship (or differences) between governmental
activities (reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities) and governmental funds in reconciliation on pages 38 and 40 of the fund
financial statements.
Proprietary funds--When the City charges customers for the services it provides, whether to outside customers or to other units of the City, these services are
generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same way that all activities are reported in the Statement of Net Position and the
Statement of Activities. In fact, the City’s enterprise funds (a component of the proprietary funds) are the same as the business-type activities we report in the
government-wide statements but provide more detail and additional information, such as cash flows, for proprietary funds. We use internal service funds (the
other component of proprietary funds) to report activities that provide supplies and services for the City’s other programs and activities, such as the Vehicle
Maintenance Fund and Health Insurance Fund. Internal service fund activity is reported as governmental activity in the government-wide statements since this
activity, the financing of goods and services for other funds of the government, is more governmental than business-type in nature.
The City as Trustee
Reporting the City’s Fiduciary Responsibilities
The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for other funds, including the Municipal Court Fund, the Montana Arts Council Fund (Montana Ballet, Bozeman
Symphony Orchestra, and Big Sky Association for the Arts), and the CMC Bozeman Asbestos Site Remediation Fund. It is also responsible for other assets
that, because of a trust arrangement, can be used only for the trust beneficiaries. The guidelines for the administration of these funds are contained in applicable
financial agreements and/or City ordinances. These documents contain the rules governing the receipt, expenditure, and management of the City’s fiduciary
funds. All of the City’s fiduciary activities are reported in the Statement of Fiduciary Net Position on page 46 and in the Combining Statement of Changes in
Assets and Liabilities-Agency Funds on page 143. As the statements reflect, the financial activity during the year for these funds is nominal. We exclude these
activities from the City’s other financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that
the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2014
THE CITY AS A WHOLE
The City’s combined net position increased by $13.7 million this year as compared to an $11.3 million increase last year.The primary reason for this is that the
increase in revenues, driven mainly by Charges for Services and Restricted Capital Grants & Contributions (infrastructure provided by private developers) was
simply greater than the increase in expenses. The specific contributing factors are outlined in the following discussion. Our analysis focuses on the net position
(Table 1) and changes in net position (Table 2) of the City’s governmental and business-type activities.
The net position of the City’s governmental activities increased by 7.2% ($137 million this year compared to $127.8 million last year). Unrestricted net
position for governmental activities, the part of net position that can be used to finance day-to-day operations without constraints established by debt covenants,
enabling legislation or other legal requirements increased to $12.1 million. The net position of the City’s business-type activities increased by 2.1% ($217.6
million compared to $213.1 million in 2013). This net position cannot be used to make up for deficits reported by governmental activities in the event any such
deficits were reported. The City generally can only use the net position of business-type activities to finance the continuing operations of the water, waste
water, solid waste, storm water, and parking operations.

The City’s total revenues (excluding special items) increased by 22.7% ($13.5 million), driven primarily by a $9.7 million increase in Restricted Capital Grants
and Contributions, which included infrastructure provided by private developers. The total cost of all programs and services increased by $11.5 million, or
23.8%. The largest contributors to this increase in expenses were Solid Waste ($4.5 million) and Waste Water ($2.9 million) followed by Public
Service/Streets ($2.1 million). Our analysis below separately considers the operations of governmental and business-type activities.

Governmental Activities
Revenues for the year from governmental activities increased by 19.5% ($7.3 million) to $44.8 million while total expenses increased by $3.4 million to $35.9
million. This excess of revenues over expenses contributed to a $9.2 million increase in the total net position for governmental activities. While revenue from
charges for services and tax revenue did increase, the primary cause of this increase in net position was a substantial increase in Restricted Capital Grants &
Contributions. This generally includes street infrastructure constructed by private developers which becomes part of the City’s public road network and is
reported as revenue in the City’s financial statements. This and the other contributing factors listed below are primarily responsible for this year’s increase in
net position:
Charges for services increased by $.6 million, or 4.5%, from $13.4 million last year to $14 million this year. Street Impact Fees were the biggest factor here,
with revenues increasing by $357,495, or 14.4%, from $2.5 million last year to $2.8 million this year. Secondly was the increase in Street Maintenance
Assessment rates and resulting revenue increase in response to the City Commission’s policy direction to address deferred street infrastructure maintenance and
to build a reserve for curb and sidewalk replacement. Accordingly, revenue from Street Maintenance Assessments increased by $246,131, or 8.4%, from
$2,917,499 last year to $3,163,630 this year.
Property Tax collections also increased by approximately $1.2 million, or 7.3%, from $16.4 million last year to $17.6 million this year due to a 2.9% increase
this year in the mill value (from $83,226 to $85,637) and a 3.8% increase in the number of property tax mills levied (from 166.75 to 173.08). Revenues in the
North 7th Avenue Corridor Tax Increment Financing District increased by 14.8%, or $96,466, from $650,989 to $747,455. Despite the increase in property tax
revenue, this year’s tax levy was still 24 mills lower than the statutory maximum allowable tax rate.
Unrestricted Operating Grants and Contributions increased by $1.1 million, or 17.5%, from $6.3 million last year to $7.4 million this year mainly due a 7.7%
increase in State Entitlement Share revenue from $3.7 to 4 million and a 2.3% increase in the State’s share of City employee retirement from $2.18 million to
$2.23 million, in addition to a general increase in various federal and state grants.
Interest on Investments increased this year significantly by $112,000, or 46%, from $243,744 to $355,790. This increase was not due to a change in interest
rates but rather an increase in cash balances. Interest rates actually continued to decline for the 5th consecutive year, down from .82% last year to .81% this
year. However, overall cash balances for Governmental Activities increased significantly this year resulting in higher interest on investments. The largest
contributor was the TOP Trail Open Space Parks Program which issued $9.9 million in debt. As of year-end a sizeable amount still remained unspent on TOP
projects and thus was earning interest.
The cost of all governmental activities this year was $35.9 million compared to $32.5 million last year. However, as shown in the Statement of Activities on
page 35 under Net(Expense) Revenue for Total governmental activities, the amount that our taxpayers ultimately financed for these activities through City
taxes and other general revenues was only $16,715,266 because some of the cost was paid by those who directly benefited from the programs ($13,980,088) or
by other governments and organizations that subsidized certain programs with operating and capital grants and contributions ($457,354 + $4,762,416 =
$5,219,770).
Overall, the City’s revenues from governmental activities –including intergovernmental revenues and charges for services –increased this year from $37.5 to
$44.8 million. Charges for services increased by $.6 million, or 4.5%, from $13,435,013 to $13,980,088 mainly due to Street Impact Fees revenues increasing
by $357,500, or 14.5%, from $2.48 million last year to $2.84 million this year. Street Maintenance Assessments also increased by $246,131, or 8.4%. Licenses
and permits also increased by $154,538, or 9.5%, from $1,629,744 to $1,784,282 mainly due to increased Building Permit construction activity.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2014
Overall expenses increased by $3.4 million, or 10.5%, to $35.9 million this year. The largest increase was in Public Service, where expenses increased by $2.1
million, or 54%, from $3.9 million to $6 million due mainly to higher spending on Street Maintenance. Street maintenance expenses increased by $579,229, or
29.3%, from $1.98 million last year to $2.56 million this year. Vehicle Maintenance expenses also increased by $172,000, or 18.8%, from $914,423 to
$1,086,227. Additionally, the GIS Geographic Information Systems function was moved from General Government to Public Service, which increased
expenses this year by $149,356. Expenses increased in Public Safety as well. Police, Fire and Building Inspection reported a combined $1 million increase in
expenses over last year, mostly due to $767,196 in increased personnel costs as the City continued to fill the new positions authorized and funded by the Public
Safety mill levy.
Table 3 presents the cost of each of the City’s six largest programs—Police, Fire, Public Service, Library, Parks and Recreation—as well as each program’s net
cost (total cost less revenues generated by the activities). The net cost shows the financial burden that was placed on the City’s taxpayers by each of these
functions.
Business-type Activities
Total revenues of the City’s business-type activities (see Table 2) increased by 28.2% ($28.2 million in 2014 compared to $22.0 million in 2013) while
expenses increased significantly by 51.6% ($23.8 million in 2014 compared to $15.7 million in 2013). The increase in revenues was due primarily to a large
increase in the amount of privately-constructed infrastructure that was contributed to the City by developers. This activity is recorded under Program revenues
as Restricted Operating Grants & Contributions. The significant increase in expenses was due primarily to landfill soil gas remediation costs. Specific factors
driving the other regular operating results include:
Water The City’s water system operating revenue (charges for services) have steadily increased over the past decade as a result of both an increase in
the customer base in past years and as a result of regular rate changes. The City’s customer-base growth was 398 customers, or 3.7%, for this year. This growth
rate is more closely in line with the 5% growth trend of 2005-2008. In updating the rate study for slower customer growth in recent years, decreased Water
Impact Fee collections and new estimates of Water Plant costs, the City implemented water rate increases of 4.5% each year in fiscal years 2011, 2012, and
2013 in order to fund plant construction and other scheduled operations and maintenance costs. Accordingly the City was able to revitalize its water
distribution pipe replacement program and replace or rehabilitate aging infrastructure every year instead of every two years.

CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2014
This year the Commission voted to hold rates steady and not to implement a water rate increase in light of the other tax and rate increases imposed upon City
residents this year.
As would be expected with no rate increase, operating revenues increased only slightly by .83% from $7,806,922 last year to $7,871,386 this year due to 3.7%
increase in customer base and consumption. Water impact fee revenues increased by $179,828, or 10.8%, and cash-in-lieu of water rights revenue increased
substantially by $221,392, or 163%, from $135,814 to $357,206. Most significant was the contribution of infrastructure by private developers, which increased
dramatically from $156,123 last year to $3,137,978 this year due to an upturn in construction and development. Operating expenses increased by $448,936, or
7.5%, from $5,991,496 last year to $6,440,432 this year mainly due to increased personnel and operating costs. Major accomplishments projects completed
during the year include spending the final $6 million to replace/construct the City’s new $42 million Water Treatment Plant and spending $827,776 spent on the
afore-mentioned water distribution pipe replacement and rehabilitation program.
Wastewater Revenues in the Wastewater Fund have generally been increasing over the past 10 years and are estimated at $7.2 Million for the upcoming
year. Three years ago the City borrowed significantly to construct the new Water Reclamation Facility. This debt is being repaid by system users over the next
20 years. Accordingly, the City Commission adopted a two-year rate resolution of a 6% increase for the fiscal years 2012 and 2013 and 3% for this year and
next year. As a result of the rate increase, combined with the same volume increase experienced in the water system which accompanied the increase in
customer base of 398 customers, operating revenues for the year increased by 4.2% from $6,916,226 last year to $7,204,486 this year. Wastewater operating
expenses increased 57.3% from $5,273,875 last year to $8,294,821 this year due mainly to a $580,049, or 37.4% increase in personnel costs due to additional
staffing and due to a $1,256,304 increase in the cost estimate for the Bozeman Solvent Site based on updated information from legal counsel following the most
recent engineering update. Major projects during the year included $1.4 million spent on the collection pipe rehabilitation and replacement program, which is
now done every year instead of every other year. While this was a large outlay of cash, it had relatively little effect on the operating expense amount referred to
previously because these rehabilitation and replacement outlays are treated as capital costs, which are booked as assets and then expensed as depreciation on an
annual basis throughout the course of the assets’ service life.
Solid Waste During fiscal year 2006, the Commission discussed how the City would continue solid waste disposal services as our landfill was nearing its
capacity. In a measure to reserve the remaining cell space for residential use only, the Commission closed the landfill to tipping by commercial customers and
non-city residents and to any construction and demolition waste. The Landfill officially closed in June 2008. Since the closure the City’s solid waste collection
and disposal system revenues had been declining steadily up until this year when revenues actually increased. The Solid Waste Collection Division continues
to operate residential and commercial collection, and in FY09 the Division began to provide curb-side recycling collection services. Three years ago, the
garbage rates were increased 5%, to cover fuel costs, employee salary and benefit increases, and the assumption of costs that were once shared with the
Landfill/Disposal division. The garbage rates increased this year by 2%.
This year saw a reversal of the trend experienced in previous years where collection revenues were declining due to a slowdown in local construction activity
and corresponding demand for “roll-off” containers and associated hauling and tipping services. Operating revenues increases moderately by $184,992, or
7.4%, from $2,494,892 last year to $2,679,884 this year. Operating expenses would generally follow accordingly, however this year the increase was
additionally significant due to a $2,754,601 net increase in the estimate for Landfill Post-Closure costs. Additional information is available in Footnote 21 on
page 87. Regular operating expenses also increased by $1.7 million, or 69.5%, from $2,475,680 to $4,195,562 primarily due to additional engineering, legal,
and remediation costs associated with the Landfill Soil Gas issue described in that same footnote. As a result, total overall operating expenses increased by

THE CITY’S FUNDS
As the City completed the year, its governmental funds (as presented in the balance sheet on pages 36-37) reported a combined fund balance of $45,357,103.
Included in this year’s total change in fund balance is a positive General Fund balance of $6,614,294, down $713,079, or 9.7%, from $7,327,375. The
following five separate categories of fund balance are recognized, based on the extent to which the government is bound to honor constraints on the specific
purposes for which amounts can be spent: nonspendable fund balance, restricted fund balance, committed fund balance, assigned fund balance, and unassigned
fund balance. The total of the last three categories, which include only resources without a constraint on spending or for which the constraint on spending is
imposed by the government itself, is termed unrestricted fund balance. The Government Finance Officers Association’s recommends maintaining an
unrestricted general fund balance of no less than two months of regular general fund operating revenues, or $4,084,688 for this year. The City’s ending
general fund balance of $6,614,294 exceeds this recommendation by $2,529,606. However, as illustrated below, all but $193,534 of this apparent surplus is
already assigned to be used for specific purposes. The primary reasons for this year’s General Fund surplus are explained after the table below, along with an
analysis of each major fund.
The general fund balance of $6,614,294 has been assigned as shown:

General Fund The City’s general fund balance decreased by $713,081, or 9.7%, from $7,327,375 in FY13 to $6,614,294 this year. The City had budgeted for
fund balance to actually end up being $2.5 million lower than that at $4,094,107, but not as much spending occurred during the year as expected, as indicated
by the TOTAL CIP / CAPITAL CARRY-OVER ITEMS in the preceding table. Other savings were realized through careful and cautious budgetary
management practices implemented throughout all City departments.
Property tax revenues increased noticeably in the General Fund by $765,116, or 6.5%, from $11,744,306 to $12,509,422 mainly due to a 2.9% increase in the
value of the property tax mill value (from $83,226 to $85,637) and a 5.6% increase in the number of general fund property tax mills levied (from 127.66 to
134.76). Intergovernmental revenues increased by $293,082, or 4.6%, from $6,277,896 last year to $6,570,978 this year. Most of this increase was driven a
long-waited increase in Montana State Entitlement Share, which beginning in 2001 replaced the City’s dedicated revenue sources from personal property tax
reimbursements and taxes on motor vehicles, gaming, alcohol, and banking, among others. After several stagnant years of minimal or no change, Entitlement
Share increased this year by $277,613, or 7.8%, from $3,561,160 to $3,838,772. The State of Montana’s share of City employee retirement also showed a
marginal increase of $42,899, or 2%, from $2,117,333 last year to $2,160,232 this year. This revenue amount is a non-cash book-entry only on the City’s
general accounting ledger, and is offset by an expenditure in the exact same amount (most of which is reported under Public Safety for the police and fire
employees), which results in no change to ending fund balance. Other intergovernmental revenue activity included a $41,797, or 8.2%, increase in Gallatin
County’s support of the City Library.
While overall revenues did increase, expenditures increased by a greater amount, which resulted in the $713,081 decrease in general fund balance. Most
notable was $914,001 increase in Capital Outlay expenditures. The largest expenditures were in the Police Department, where $473,000 was spent on
engineering and design of a new Police-Court Justice Center and $310,741 was spent on acquiring and outfitting new patrol vehicles. Public Safety salary
expenditures also increased as positions continued to be filled pursuant to the public safety mill levy beginning in 2009. Police personnel costs (net of State
Share of Retirement) increased by $289,398, or 5.6%, from $5,181,179 last year to $5,470,577. Fire Department personnel costs (net of State Share of
Retirement) increased by $313,434, or 8.5%, from $3,669,662 last year to $3,983,096.
Also contributing to the strength and relative stability of the General Fund balance is the utilization of conservative budgetary practices. Conservative, yet
realistic, revenue estimates, combined with departments operating within their original budgets,naturally has a favorable effect on the bottom line. Maintaining
adequate reserves has several internal and external benefits. Internally, reserves can provide for cash flow needs until property tax revenues are received,
reducing or eliminating the need for cash flow borrowing; provide funds to leverage state or federal grants; and provide for the unexpected. Externally,
reserves tend to be viewed favorably by investors, rating agencies, and local banks with which we do business, thus benefiting rating and the potential need for
lines of credit.
The City’s General Fund balance was a primary focus of a recent bond ratings when Moody’s Investor Services assigned a debt rating of Aa3 in November of
2013 and a rating of Aa3 “Positive Outlook” in November of 2014 for the two issuances of Trails, Open Space and Parks general obligation bonds. This
affirmed Moody’s rating assigned in May, 2012 of Aa3 rating to the City’s General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2012, issued in the amount of $3.1
million. At the same time, Moody's also affirmed the Aa3 rating on the city's rated outstanding general obligation debt not being refunded by this issue, which
included $.6 million outstanding for the 2003 refinancing of the City’s General Obligation Transportation Bonds and the remaining bonds issued in 2003 for the
new Library. In each instance bond analysts looked favorably on the amount and trend of the General Fund balance in determining the City’s bond rating.
As shown on page 95, variances in the General Fund between the original budget and the final budget appropriations totaled $601,990, which increased the
original appropriation budget of $26,856,548 up to $27,458,538. Approximately $249,000 of this increase was for the non-cash “book entry only” expenditure
previously discussed for the Public Safety budget in order to record the additional amount of the State’s share of Police and Firefighter retirement in excess of

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2014
the $1.9 million that was initially budgeted. As stated, this entire expenditure, including the amount requiring a budget amendment, is offset/“reimbursed” by
intergovernmental revenue booked in the same amount. By design, the $1.9 million of appropriation authority was initially budgeted under General
Government and then later moved to the Public Safety budget at year-end, at which time the $249,124 additional amount necessary to cover Police and
Firefighter retirement was added as a true amendment to increase appropriation authority. This $249,124 combined with the $1.9 million shift from General
Government accounts for the $2.1 million overall increase to the Public Safety budget, and it also explains the $1.9 million reduction in the budget for General
Government. The $257,821 amendment to the Capital outlay budget is related to carryover from the prior year for design and engineering of the previously
mentioned Police-Court Justice Center.
Street Impact Fees Special Revenue Fund balance decreased by $432,276, or 4.1%, from $10,226,240 last year to $9,793,964 this year. Revenues actually
increased by $385,292, or 15.1%, from $2,549,257 to $2,934,549 due to an upturn in construction and development. Construction activity for the year which
required the payment of impact fees included $513,000 for the Sundance Apartments at Baxter Meadows, $157,608 for Country Inn & Suites, $79,693 for the
new Town Pump Gas Station & Convenience Center, and $63,144 for HRDC’s West Edge Condominiums. However, expenditures exceeded revenues for the
year by $432,276 mainly due to the City’s contribution of $3.3 million to the widening and reconstruction of College Street between 19th Avenue and Main
Street/Huffine Lane.
Street Maintenance Special Revenue Fund balance increased by $215,803, or 12.3%, from $1,761,976 last year to $1,977,779 this year due to revenues
exceeding expenditures, even though the increase in expenditures was larger than the increase in revenues. Street Assessment total revenues increased by
$258,603, or 8.7%, from $2,982,313 last year to $3,240,916 this year. Driving this was continued expansion of the City’s Street Maintenance Assessment
program to include major street reconstruction projects; the first being the reconstruction of South 8th Avenue completed this year. With the Commission’s
focused goal of addressing deferred street and curb maintenance, Street Maintenance Assessment rates were increased three years ago by 18%, with the 18%
allocated as follows: Continued increase to Curb Replacement Fund (2%); Debt Service Payments for the Reconstruction of South 8th Avenue (7%);
Establishment of a Street Reconstruction Fund (6%); and Increase in Operating Budget (3%). Continuing the City Commission’s goal of addressing deferred
street maintenance, this year rates were increased 6.9% allocated as follows: 2% continued increase to Curb Replacement Fund, resulting in a $54,000 annual
increase; 3% increase to a Street Reconstruction Reserve, resulting in a $75,000 annual increase; 1.9% increase for Other Operating needs, resulting in a
$50,000 annual increase.
Expenditures increased considerably this year by $881,521, or 40.1%, from $2,167,287 to $3,048,808. Major costs included $174,000 for the purchase of a
new flex-fuel low-emission low-decibel Caterpillar front-end loader to replace the existing 1978 loader, $123,523 to finish up the reconstruction of South 8th
Avenue, and $122,188 spent on the Micropaver Asset Management System. Additionally, debt service expenditures increased significantly this year by
$114,388, or 162%, year from $70,531 to $184,919 due mainly to new debt issued to help fund the reconstruction of South 8th Avenue.
Building Inspection Special Revenue The City’s Building Inspection division again experienced strong permit issuance over the past year. While never
completely stopping, building construction significantly slowed during the recession. However, this year the total value of Building Permits for New
Construction, upon which most permit revenue calculation are based, was 136% of the previous year. Accordingly, fund balance increased by $262,191, or
23.2%, from $1,132,359 last year to $1,394,550 this year Revenues increased by $150,695, or 11.3%, from $1,333,048 last year to $1,483,743 this year due to
this revived increase in construction and other activity requiring a Building Permit. Total expenditures increased only moderately by $15,379, or 1.3%, from
$1,206,173 last year to $1,221,552 this year. However, last year’s expenditures included $226,788 for capital purchases of technology equipment, including
hardware and software for electronic plan review, mobile field inspections, and an online permit portal. The reason this year’s expenditure level kept pace is
not due to continued capital outlays (only $27,610 this year) but instead due to a $123,847, or 17.4%, increase in personnel costs for the hiring of additional
Building Inspectors.

JUNE 30, 2014
SID Sinking Debt Service Fund balance increased by $371,965, or 42%, from $886,462 last year to $1,258,427 this year. Revenues from Special
Improvement District (SID) assessment collections along with fund interest income and other income amounted to $1,063,253 which is $226,183, or 27%,
higher than last year’s $837,070. This marked increase was due to a payoff (paying the entire amount due instead of choosing to pay installments annually) of
the Valley Center Road/North 19th Avenue Special Improvement District (SID) by Gallatin Center this year. Total expenditures actually decreased this year by
$206,413, or 27.4%, from $754,173 to $547,760 because more SID debt was paid off by the City last year than in the current year. When enough cash has
accumulated in the SID Sinking Funds due to regularly-scheduled repayments, or due to one-time payoffs such as the Gallatin Center, the City can choose to
call/pay some of its SID bonds early to avoid future interest costs. Because of the timing of these bond calls and the minimum amounts that can be called, this
doesn’t always necessarily occur in the same year that the customer makes a payoff. So any bond call made by the City related to the Gallatin Center payoff
won’t occur until next year.
CAPITAL ASSET AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets As shown in Table 4, at the end of 2014 the City had $352.8 million invested in a broad range of capital assets, including police and fire
equipment, buildings, park facilities, roads, and water and sewer lines. This amount represents a net increase (including additions and deductions) of roughly
$17.5 million, or 5.2% over last year. Refer to capital assets disclosure Note 7 beginning on page 59 for more information.

Major additions and projects underway include the following expenditures made during this year:
Debt
At year-end, the City had $58.1 million in bonds and notes outstanding versus $47.0 million last year –a notable increase of $11.2 million, or 23.8%, as shown
in Table 5. This increase was primarily due to the $9.9 million in general obligation bonds issued for the $15 million voter-approved Trails Open Space and
Parks (TOP) program. The remaining $5.1 million will be issued next year. General obligation debt, which is reported under Governmental Activities,
consists of this $9.9 million for the TOP Bonds along with $1.8 million in Series 2012 Refunding Bonds issued to refinance both the Series 2003A
Transportation Refunding bonds and the Series 2001A and Series 2003B Library Construction Project bonds. Debt reported under Business-Type Activities
includes $18.1 million of water revenue bonds and $21 million of wastewater revenue bonds issued to finance construction of the new Water Treatment and
Wastewater Reclamation Facilities.
Moody’s Investor Services assigned a debt rating of Aa3 in November of 2013 for the first issuance of TOP general obligation bonds. Moody’s views the
city’s financial operations as sound, noting in their report that City officials have delivered operating surpluses in four of the last five audited financial years
and that the City has a moderately-sized tax base that did not decline during the recession, in addition to a low debt burden. This affirmed the rating assigned
by Moody’s in May, 2012 of Aa3 to the City’s General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2012, issued in the amount of $3.1 million.
As expressed in the fiscal year 2015 Approved Budget, City officials expect to end next fiscal year with general fund reserves totaling $4.7 million, or 17.9%
ofoperating revenues. This exceeds the minimum level of 16 2/3% required by City Charter, which in May of 2011 was amended to include adoption of

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGETS AND RATES
The City’s elected and appointed officials considered many factors when adopting the 2014-2015 budget for next fiscal year’s tax rates and fees that will be
charged for the business-type activities. Some of these factors include: capital improvements identified in the City’s Capital Improvement Program; inflation
rates, the City’s collective bargaining units, the local economy, and the citizen’s ability to pay. For the year, inflation rates continued to remain at relatively
low yet increasing levels. The Bureau of Labor Statistics of the U.S. Department of Labor reported that over the year US annual inflation rate was recorded at
1.7 percent, the smallest advance in 5 years, as the fall in energy prices was enough to offset higher food and shelter cost. Inflation rates will also impact the
cost of future City capital projects.

RECONCILIATION OF STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES
OF GOVERNEMENTAL FUNDS TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITES
Year Ended June 30, 2014
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because:
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds 9,466,708$
Governmental funds report capital outlays as exp enditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost
of these assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is
the amount by which depreciation expense exceeded capital outlays in the current period.
Expenditures for capital assets 8,053,456$
Donated infrastructure 4,447,151
Less: current year depreciation (3,961,359) 8,539,248
Governmental funds report asset disposals as sale of fixed assets for the cash received. In the statement of
activities, those gains and losses must be adjusted by the assets basis, net of any depreciation.(7,529)
The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds,
while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of
governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds
these amounts report the effect of premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas
are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities, unless immaterial. This amount is the net effect of these
differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.(8,720,352)
Some revenues reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and,
therefore, are not reported as revenues in governmental funds.(748,473)
Governmental funds do not report a liability for compensated absences. The change in the liability is a current
period expense.(164,373)
Governmental funds do not report a liability for other post-employment health benefits.(69,026)
Governmental funds do not recognize a liability for long-term legal settlements. The current year payment
was recorded as an expenditure in the governmental funds. The liability and expense was previously accrued
in the governmental activities.666,667
Governmental funds do not report impact fee credits. The change in these credits during the year are charged
to the statement of activities.5,515
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities to individual funds. The
net revenue of the internal service funds is reported in the governmental activities.190,152

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2014
NOTE 1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Bozeman of Gallatin County, Montana (the City) was incorporated as a municipal corporation in 1883. The present City Code of
Ordinances was adopted October 3, 2011. Under the charter, the City is governed by a mayor and commission members who comprise the City
Commission. The day-to-day affairs of the City are conducted under the supervision of the City Manager, who is appointed by and serves at the
pleasure of a majority of the City Commission.
The accompanying financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as
prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental
accounting and financial reporting principles. In June 1999 the GASB issued Statement 34 Basic Financial Statements-and Management’s
Discussion and Analysis-for State and Local Governments (GASB 34). This Statement establishes new financial reporting requirements for state
and local governments throughout the United States. It requires new information and restructures much of the information that governments have
presented in the past. Comparability with reports issued in prior years is affected.
The accompanying financial statements present the financial position of the City and the various funds and fund types, the results of operations of
the City and the various funds and fund types, and the cash flows of the proprietary funds. The financial statements are presented as of June 30,
2014, and for the year then ended.
The more significant accounting policies of the City are described below.
New Accounting Pronouncements
For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the City implemented GASB Statement 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities.This
Statement establishes accounting and financial reporting standards that reclassify, as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of
resources, certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities and recognizes, as outflows of resources or inflows of resources,
certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities.
Reporting Entity
The City has considered all potential component units for which it is financially accountable and other organizations for which the nature and
significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board has set forth criteria to be considered in determining financial accountability in Statement 14 The
Financial Reporting Entity and Statement 61,The Financial Reporting Entity: Omnibus –an Amendment of GASB Statements No. 14 and No. 34.
These criteria include appointing a voting majority of an organization's governing body and (1) the ability of the City to impose its will on that
organization or (2) the potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the City.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
June 30, 2014
NOTE 1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Reporting Entity (Continued)
Although the following entities meet the requirements of Statement 61, they are strictly advisory in nature. Therefore, the government-wide
financial statements do not include the financial information of the following entities and their omission does not cause the City’s financial
statements to be misleading or incomplete. Should there develop a financial element at some point in the future, the City shall include these
entities on its government-wide financial statements.
Senior Center Advisory Council -This council is advisory in nature on senior issues and on how to run the City-owned Senior Center
building. The City is responsible for the maintenance and operation of the building.
Blended Component Units
The following have been presented as blended component units since their governing bodies are substantially the same as the primary
government’s government body and because their services are provided entirely or almost entirely to the primary government.
Parking Commission -The City Commission appoints the governing board of the Parking Commission, which was created by ordinance.
The City owns the parking lots, collects the rents and assigns the lots to the individuals.
City Planning Board -The agreement forming the City Planning Board holds that it will submit its budget to the City Commission for
approval and the City provides all accounting functions and is responsible for the issuance of debt. It is presented with the Special Revenue
Funds.
Basis of Accounting/Measurement Focus
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each
fund are accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures or
expenses, as appropriate. Governmental resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they
are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The Government-Wide Financial Statements (the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities) present information of all the non-
fiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. These statements present summaries of Governmental and Business-Type
Activities for the City accompanied by a total column.
These statements are presented on an “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all of the City’s
assets and liabilities, including capital assets and long-term liabilities, are included in the accompanying Statement of Net Position. The City has
retroactively included infrastructure in its assets.

NOTE 1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)

Government-Wide Financial Statements (Continued)
The Statement of Activities presents changes in Net Position. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in
which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred. The types of transactions reported as program
revenues for the City are reported in three categories: 1) charges for services, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and
contributions.
Certain eliminations have been made as prescribed by GASB 34 in regards to inter-fund activities, payables and receivables. All internal balances
in the Statement of Net Position have been eliminated except those representing balances between the governmental activities and the business-
type activities, which are presented as internal balances and eliminated in the total primary government column. In the Statement of Activities,
internal service fund transactions have been eliminated; however, those transactions between governmental and business-type activities have not
been eliminated.
The City applies all applicable GASB pronouncements (including all National Council on Governmental Accounting Statements and
Interpretations currently in effect) as well as the following pronouncements issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless those pronouncements
conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements: Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statements and Interpretations, Accounting
Principles Board (APB) Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins (ARB) of the Committee on Accounting Procedure.
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Governmental Fund Financial Statements include a Balance Sheet and a Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances for
all major governmental funds and nonmajor funds aggregated. An accompanying schedule is presented to reconcile and explain the differences in
fund balances and changes in fund balances as presented in these statements to the net position and changes in net position presented in the
Government-Wide Financial Statements. The City has presented all major funds that met those qualifications.
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or “current financial resources” measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of
accounting. Accordingly, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the Balance Sheets. The Statement of Revenues,
Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other
financing uses) in net current position. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the accounting period in which
they become both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current period. Accordingly, revenues are recorded when received in
cash, except that revenues subject to accrual (generally 60 days after year-end) are recognized when due. The primary revenue sources which
have been treated as susceptible to accrual by the City are property taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other taxes.

Governmental Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
Expenditures are recorded in the accounting period in which the related fund liability is incurred. The City has elected to apply the early
recognition option of recognizing debt services expenditures provided by GASB Interpretation No. 6, Recognition and Measurement of Certain
Liabilities and Expenditures in Governmental Fund Financial Statements. Under this option, an expenditure and a liability are recorded in debt
service funds in the current year for amounts due early in the following year, for which resources have been provided during the current year.
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements
Proprietary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position, a Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position, and
a Statement of Cash Flows for each major proprietary fund. A column representing internal service funds is also presented with the Proprietary
Fund Financial Statements. Internal service balances and activities, however, have been combined with the governmental activities in the
Government-Wide Financial Statements.
Proprietary funds are accounted for using the “economic resources” measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Accordingly, all
assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on the Statement of Net Position. The Statement of Revenues, Expenses and
Changes in Net Position present increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in total net position. Under the accrual basis of accounting,
revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned while expenses are recognized in the period in which the liability is incurred.
Operating revenues in the proprietary funds are those revenues that are generated from the primary operations of the fund. All other revenues are
reported as non-operating revenues. Operating expenses are those expenses that are essential to the primary operations of the fund. All other
expenses are reported as non-operating expenses.
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements
Fiduciary Fund Financial Statements include a Statement of Net Position. The City’s Fiduciary Funds represent Agency Funds, which are
custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. Therefore, Agency Funds do not have a
measurement focus. These funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. The following Agency Funds are included in the
Fiduciary Fund financial statements:
Montana Arts Council –Accounts for pass-through monies received from the State of Montana to fund local chapters of cultural
enhancement activities such as the Bozeman Symphony Orchestra, Montana Ballet, Mandolin Society, Intermountain Opera Association,
and the Emerson Cultural Center.
Municipal Court –Accounts for monies held for appearance bonds and restitution related to criminal arrests and reimbursement for damage
caused.

Internal Service Funds
Internal Service Funds are used to account for goods and services provided by one department to other departments of the City on a cost-
reimbursement basis. These direct costs and certain indirect costs are included as part of the program expense reported for the individual functions
and activities of these other departments. The following Internal Service Funds are included in the Proprietary Fund Financial Statements:
Vehicle Maintenance Shop –Accounts for the maintenance and repair of vehicles used in the operation of City services.
Medical Health Insurance –Accounts for insurance premium revenues received from the various City departments and retirees, and the
related costs of health, vision, and dental insurance premiums incurred by City employees and retirees.
Funds
As mentioned, the Governmental Fund Financial Statements include a Balance Sheet and a Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in
Fund Balances for all major governmental funds and nonmajor funds aggregated. The following major funds are presented in separate columns on
the Governmental Funds Financial Statements, and the Proprietary Funds Financial Statements, respectively:
Governmental Funds
General Fund –this fund accounts for the financial operations of the City which are not accounted for in any other fund. Principal sources of
revenue are property taxes, state and local shared revenues, licenses and permits, and charges for services provided to other funds. Principal
expenditures in the General Fund are made for police and fire protection, public welfare, and general government.
Street Impact Fees Special Revenue Fund –on January 22, 1996, the City Commission adopted fire, street, water, and waste impact fees in
Ordinance Number 1414. This fund accounts for the collection and expenditures associated with the street impact fees.

Building Inspection Special Revenue Fund –This fund was established to account for all activity of enforcing the building regulations
adopted by the City. It includes all the money and staff associated with executing any aspect of the code enforcement program. Section 50-
60-101 MCA established the code enforcement program requirement.
SID Sinking Debt Service Fund –Accounts for the accumulation of resources and payment of special assessment debt principal and interest
related to general improvement, sidewalk, and curb construction projects.

Water Fund -Accounts for the City's water utility operations and to collect and administer water impact fees.
Waste Water Fund -Accounts for the City's sewer utility operations and to collect and administer waste water impact fees.
Solid Waste Fund -Accounts for the City's garbage service operations.
Use of Restricted/Unrestricted Net Position
When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position are available, the City’s policy is to apply
restricted net position first.
Cash and Investments
Cash and investments are under the management of the City's Treasurer and consist primarily of demand deposits and investments in U.S.
Government Bonds. Interest income earned as a result of pooling of City deposits is distributed to the appropriate funds utilizing a formula based
on the average balance of cash and investments of each fund.
Montana State statutes authorize the City to invest in interest-bearing savings accounts, certificates of deposits, and time deposits insured up to
$250,000 by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or fully collateralized, U.S. government and U.S. agency obligations and repurchase
agreements where there is a master repurchase agreement and collateral held by a third party.
Restricted Cash and Investments
Certain proceeds of enterprise fund revenue bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment, are classified as restricted assets on
the balance sheet because their use is limited by applicable bond covenants. Impact fees collected and line-oversizing fees are restricted for
applicable use. Payments in lieu of parking are restricted by code for future parking related capital projects.

NOTE 1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
Eliminations and Reclassifications
In the process of aggregating data for the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, some amounts reported as inter-fund activity
and balances in the funds have been eliminated or reclassified. Internal service fund activity has also been eliminated in the Statement of
Activities to remove the “doubling-up” effect.
Capital Assets
The City’s assets are capitalized at historical cost or estimated historical cost. City policy has set the capitalization threshold for reporting capital
assets at $5,000. Gifts or contributions of capital assets are recorded at fair market value when received. Depreciable capital assets are reported
on the Statement of Net Position, net of applicable accumulated depreciation. Capital assets which are not depreciable, such as land, and
construction in progress are reported separately. Depreciation expense is reported in Statement of Activities and is calculated using the straight-
line method based on the assets estimated useful life.
Depreciation is recorded on a straight-line basis over the useful lives of the assets as follows:
In accordance with GASB 34, the City has recorded infrastructure assets prospectively from 2005, the date of implementation,and has included
infrastructure acquired prior to implementation within the four-year required period. The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets
that allow the City to function. These assets include the street system, comprised of roads, sidewalks, curbs, and street lights; the water
purification and distribution system; the sewer collection and treatment system; park and recreation lands and related improvements; storm water
conveyance system; and buildings and site amenities, including parking and landscaped areas.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend asset lives are not capitalized.
Improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets, as applicable.
Vehicles 5 to 10 years
Machinery and equipment 5 to 30 years
Buildings 20 to 80 years
Other structures and improvements 10 to 100 years
Infrastructure 25 to 100 years

Compensated Absences Payable
Earned but unpaid vacation and sick pay is included as a liability in the proprietary fund types and Government-Wide Financial Statements. The
portion relating to the governmental fund types not expected to be paid with expendable and available resources is not reported in the
governmental fund statements unless the liability has matured (i.e., unused reimbursable leave still outstanding following an employee's
resignation or retirement).
Inter-fund Receivables and Payables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in amounts owed between funds. Those
short-term loans related to goods and services type transactions are classified as “due to and from other funds”. Long-term inter-fund loans
(noncurrent portion) are reported as “advances to and from other funds”. Inter-fund receivables and payables between funds are eliminated in the
Statement of Net Position.
On-Behalf Payments for Fringe Benefits
On-behalf payments for fringe benefits are direct payments made by one entity to a third-party recipient for the employees of another legally
separate entity. On-behalf payments include pension plan contributions. The State's pension contribution is recorded as intergovernmental
revenue with an offsetting public safety or general government expenditure in the Pension Special Revenue Fund. (See Note 14)
Budgets
Each year, the City Manager must submit to the City Commission a proposed operating budget for all budget units within the City for the fiscal
year commencing July 1. This operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them. Public hearings are conducted
to obtain citizen comments on the proposed budget. The budget is then legally adopted through passage of the appropriation resolution by the
City Commission.
The City adopts a final budget each June and amends the budget in August if the initial taxable value estimates were significantly different from
the final Certified Values received from the State.
Budgets are legally required for all governmental fund types. These budgets are prepared on the same basis and using the same accounting
practices as are used to account and prepare financial reports for the funds. Budgets presented in this report for comparison to actual amounts are
presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Annual appropriated budgets are adopted for all funds and all
appropriations lapse at year end. The level of budgetary control (that is the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated
amount) is established at the fund level.

Budgets (Continued)
The City Commission may amend the budget during the course of the fiscal year. Montana state statute provides a number of different ways to
amend the budget. The first involves a reallocation of existing appropriations among the line items within a specific fund. The second defines a
series of scenarios where the governing body has authority to amend the budget without a hearing for donations, land sales, and fee-based budgets.
All other increases in appropriation authority that are not specifically permitted by statute must be approved through a public hearing process.
Any accruing revenue of the municipality not appropriated and any balance at any time remaining after the purpose of an appropriation has been
satisfied or abandoned,may from time to time be appropriated to other uses that do not conflict with any uses for which specifically the revenue
was accrued. A public hearing is required for an overall increase in appropriation authority, except in the case of an emergency.
In its annual appropriation resolution, the City Commission delegated budget amendment authority to the City Manager for the expenditure of
funds from any or all of the following: debt service funds, enterprise funds, internal service funds, trust funds, federal and state grants accepted
and approved by the governing body, special assessments, and donations. In all other funds, the City Manager may, without approval from the
City Commission, make budget amendments as long as the total appropriation for the department is not exceeded.
Spending control is established by the total amount of expenditures budgeted for the fund, but management may exercise control at budgetary line
items.
Fund Balance
In accordance with GASB Statement 54, the City reports fund balance for governmental funds in two general classifications, nonspendable and
spendable.
Nonspendable represents the portion of fund balance that is not in spendable form such as inventories, and, in the general fund, long-term notes
and loans receivable. Spendable fund balance is further categorized as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned.
The restricted fund balance category contains balances that can be spent only for the specific purposes stipulated by external parties or through
enabling legislation. External parties include grantors,debt covenants, votes, and laws and regulations of other governments.
The committed fund balance category includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the
government’s highest level of decision-making authority, the City Commission. The City Commission needs to formally adopt a Resolution in
order to establish, modify, or rescind a fund balance commitment.

NOTE 1.SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Fund Balance (Continued)
Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be used by the government for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to
be classified as restricted or committed. Assignments of fund balance are created by an official who the governing body has delegated the
authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. The City Commission and the City Manager individually have the authority to
express assignments. In governmental funds other than the general fund, assigned fund balance also represents the remaining amount that is not
restricted or committed. Also included in the assigned fund balance for the general fund are assignments for the portion of the current general
fund balance that is projected to be used to fund expenditures and other cash outflows in excess of the expected revenues and other cash inflows in
the next fiscal year.
The intent to Assign Fund Balances can be expressed by the Commission or by an official or body to which the Commission delegates the
authority. The City Commission delegates this authority to the City Manager. On December 2, 2013, the City Commission accepted the City
Manager’s recommendation for Assignments in the General Fund to be reported in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for fiscal year
2013.
Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the government’s general fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the
other classifications. In other funds, the unassigned classification should be used only to report a deficit balance resulting from overspending for
specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed, or assigned.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available, spending will occur in the following order, for the identified fund types:
General Fund: Restricted, Committed, Assigned, Unassigned
Special Revenue Funds: Restricted, Committed, Assigned
Debt Service Funds: Assigned, Committed, Restricted
Capital Projects Funds: Restricted, Committed, Assigned
Minimum General Fund –Fund Balance
The City does not maintain a stabilization fund. However, the City’s Charter requires an established minimum level of “General Fund Unreserved
Fund Balance”, in accordance with the Government Finance Officers’ Association (GFOA) Best Practices. The GFOA significantly changed their
Best Practice Recommendation in October 2009. As a result, in May 2010, the Commission increased the required minimum from 12% to 16
2/3%, or 2 months’ worth of revenues.

Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that in the event of a financial institution failure, the City’s deposits may not be returned or the City
will not be able to recover the collateral securities in the possession of the outside party. The City minimizes custodial credit risk by restrictions
set forth in City policy and state law. The City’s policy requires deposits to be 104 percent secured by collateral valued at market value. The City
Treasurer maintains a listing of financial institutions, which are approved for investment purposes. Types of securities that may be pledged as
collateral are detailed in Section 17-6-103 of the Montana Code Annotated (MCA). City policy requires that specific safeguards against risk of
loss be evidenced when the City does not physically hold the securities.

renovation of the building which started 1993. The $765,000 constitutes rent for four rental terms of ten years each. During the term of the lease
and renewal of the lease, the principal balance of $765,000 will be decreased by equal annual rental payments in the amount of $19,125. If the
City and County mutually agree to terminate the lease after the second ten-year term, the County will refund $382,500, to the City for the unused
portion of the rent. The lease began when renovations were complete on November 1, 1994. For the year ended June 30, 2014, rent expenditure
was $19,125 regarding this lease.

not constitute a default under the TIF agreement. If and when the incremental revenues are sufficient, the City shall pay the amount of any
shortfall to the paying agent and registrar without any penalty interest or premium thereon. Due to the uncertainty of the future tax increment

Special Assessment Debt -Special assessment bonds are payable from the collection of special assessments levied against benefited property
owners within each special improvement district. To the extent that such special assessment collections are not sufficient to make the required
debt service payments, the City is obligated to levy and collect a general property tax on all taxable property in the City to provide additional
funding for the debt service payments. The cash balance in the SID Revolving Fund must equal at least 5% of the principal amount of bonds
outstanding. If the cash balance is less than 5%, a levy is required to bring the cash balance to the required minimum.
The City has issued various special assessment bonds with various maturities through 2025 at interest rates ranging from 2.5%to 5.75%. In

Substantially all special assessment bonds mature eighteen to twenty years after the date of issuance but are redeemable at the option of the City
whenever cash is available in the respective funds for each issue. The City follows the policy of early redemption on these bonds. Accordingly, a
schedule of future interest payments through maturity of the bonds is deemed to be not meaningful and has been excluded.
The net revenues of the water fund have been pledged as collateral to secure the debt service related to SID 665. This collateral is subordinate to
commitments made prior to July 12, 1993 to pledge this collateral as a guarantee of the payment of other debt. In the event that the resources
available to service debt related to SID 665 are insufficient, the City shall transfer amounts from the water fund to satisfy this obligation. The
District will be under no obligation to reimburse the water fund for any such transfer. At this time, the City does not anticipate the need to make
any such transfers.

NOTE 15.POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
In addition to providing a deferred compensation plan, the City provides other post-employment benefits (OPEB) allowing its retired
employees to continue their medical, dental and vision care coverage through the City's group health plan until death (Retiree Health Plan).
The plan allows retirees to participate, as a group, at a rate that does not cover all of the related costs. This results in the reporting of an
implied rate subsidy in the financial statements and footnotes. The City's contract with Allegiance Benefits details the plan eligibility.
MMIA is the administrator of the benefit plan which covers both active and retired members. In accordance with MCA 2-18-704, the City’s
retirees may continue coverage for themselves and their covered eligible dependents if they are eligible for public employees' retirement by
virtue of their employment with the City of Bozeman. The City's current labor contracts do not include any obligations for payments to
retirees. The City also allows terminated employees to continue their health care coverage for 18 months past the date of termination as
required by the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA).
OPEB is recorded on an accrual basis for all enterprise and internal service funds. OPEB is recorded on a modified accrual basis for the
governmental funds. Plan contributions are recognized in the period in which the contributions are made. Benefits and refunds are
recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan.
Funding Policy. The plan is unfunded by the City and plan members receiving benefits contribute 100 percent of their cost of the benefits on
a pay-as-you-go basis. The City plan’s administratively established retiree medical, dental and vision premiums vary between $37 and $912
per month depending on the medical plan selected, family coverage, and Medicare eligibility. The plan provides different coinsurance
amounts depending on whether members use preferred, non-preferred, or other hospitals. For a single individual, after an annual deductible
of $300 for most non-Medicare-eligible retirees, the plan reimburses 70% for the first $500 medical claims and 100% thereafter. For a
family, after an annual deductible of $600 for most non-Medicare-eligible retirees, the plan reimburses 70% for the first $1,000 medical
claims and 100% thereafter. For fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the City has 35 retired members receiving benefits.

on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC). The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is
projected to cover normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a closed amortization
period not to exceed thirty years.
The following table shows the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and
changes in the City’s net OPEB obligation to the Retiree Health Plan:

Funded Status and Funding Progress. The projection of future benefit payments for an ongoing plan involves estimates of the value of
reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about
future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual
required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as 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 multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing
over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits. The City has elected not to fund this liability.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions. The City’s actuarial valuation is completed on a biennial frequency, provided no significant events have
occurred warranting new measurement. The City completed the valuation for fiscal year 2013, with an estimate provided for fiscal year
2014.For fiscal year 2014, an estimated valuation was derived based on the 2013 actual costs and participants.As a result of this biennial
valuation, we have marked the fields as “n/a” where actual financial data was not used to generate the estimate.As of July 1, 2013, the most
recent valuation date, the City’s actuarially accrued liability (AAL) for benefits was $2,202,345. The AAL by status breakdown is shown

The following key assumptions were chosen by the City:
1.Discount Rate: 4.0%
2.Inflation Rate: 3.0%
3.Expected Long Term Rate of Return on Assets: 4.0%
4.Health Care Claim and Contribution Trend Rates: 7.5% for 2012, 7.0% for 2013, 6.5% for 2014, 6.0% for 2015, 5.5% for 2016,
5.0% for 2017, 5.0% for 2018 and thereafter.
5.Average Salary Increase: 4.0%
6.Retirement Rates: Based upon the separate rates used to value the pension obligations for Police Officers, Firefighters, and all other
employees, respectively.
7.Retiree Participation Rate: 30%
8.Marital Assumption: For future retirees, 60% of participants are assumed to be married, with husbands 3 years older than wives.
The Projected Unit Credit Actuarial Cost Method was used to determine the annual required contribution. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing
plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of events far into the future. Examples,as
detailed above, include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Actuarially determined amounts are
subject to continual revisions as actual results are compared with past expectations, and new estimates are made about the future. Actuarial
calculations reflect a long-term perspective. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following
the notes to the financial statements, is designed to present multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is
increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial liabilities for benefits. Historically, the net other post-employment benefit
obligation has been liquidated primarily by the general fund and the proprietary funds.
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer 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 employer and plan members to that point. The methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the
effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the
calculations.
This report constitutes the only analysis and presentation of the City’s post-employment benefit plan. There is no separate, audited GAAP-
basis post-employment benefit plan report.

Joint ventures are legal entities or other organizations that result in a contractual arrangement and that are owned, operated, or governed by
two or more participants. Each participant retains both an ongoing financial interest and an ongoing financial responsibility.
Joint ventures are legal entities or other organizations that result in a contractual arrangement and that are owned, operated, or governed by
two or more participants. Each participant retains both an ongoing financial interest and an ongoing financial responsibility. As of June 30,
2014, the City has entered into joint venture contractual arrangements, as described below.
911 Communication Center
The City and Gallatin County, Montana (the County) have entered into an inter-local agreement for the purposes of establishment of the
operation and financing of a 911 communication services division (the Division) for dispatch and records services, to define the relationship
of the Administrative Board with the City and County, and to establish the line of authority for personnel furnishing the communication
services to the City and County and others who may contract for the services.
Though the City has no equity interest in the Division, the City has indirect access to the joint venture’s resources, as the Division’s purpose
is of direct interest to the City, and the City has the ability to influence the management of the Division. In addition, the City and County
have agreed to pay 45% and 55% of the Division expenditures, respectively. The agreement expired December 19, 2005, and automatically
renewed until terminated by either party. Financial information regarding the Division can be obtained by contacting Shelley Vance, Gallatin
County, Clerk and Records Office, 311 West Main, Bozeman, MT 59715.
City-County Drug Forfeitures
The City and Gallatin County, Montana (the County) have entered into an inter-local agreement for the purposes of establishment of a joint
drug forfeiture account funded from drug related forfeitures, seizures and prosecutions of City and County law enforcement cases and to
establish an equitable means of distributing those funds to continue drug interdiction activities. The goal of the agreement is to make the City
and County Drug Enforcement operations less reliant on the general and public safety fund monies of the City and County. The original term
of the agreement was for a period of one year, beginning September 20, 2004 and automatically renews for a period of one year until
terminated by either party with written notice of intent to terminate. Financial information regarding the joint drug forfeiture account can be
obtained by contacting the City of Bozeman Department of Finance, 411 East Main Street, Bozeman, MT 59715.
Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority
The City and Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority (MMIA) have entered into a 20-year agreement in December 2012 to share up to $1
million in profits from the sale of city-owned property known as the Mandeville Farm. The agreement came about as part of a settlement on
legal claims from the City of Bozeman vs. MMIA litigation. A “profit” shall occur only when the City has recovered its total investment in
the property, which includes the original purchase price together with all “costs of development” as defined in the settlement agreement.

fund where cash previously had been in a deficit.
NOTE 19.RISK MANAGEMENT
The City faces a considerable number of risks of loss, including a) damage to and loss of property and contents, b) employee torts, c)
professional liability (i.e. errors and omissions), d) environmental damage, e) workers' compensation (i.e. employee injuries), and f) medical
insurance cost of employees. A variety of methods are used to provide insurance for these risks. Commercial policies, transferring all risks
of loss except for small deductible amounts, are purchased for property and content damage and professional liabilities. The City participates
in two state-wide public risk pools operated by the Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority, for workers' compensation and for tort liability.
Employee medical insurance is provided through a privately-administered, partially self-insured plan. Given the lack of coverage available,
the City has no coverage for potential losses from environmental damages.
Commercial Policies
Coverage limits and the deductibles on the commercial policies have stayed relatively constant for the last several years. The premiums for
the policies are allocated between the City's Enterprise Funds and the General Fund. Premiums are subsidized through a special purpose
property tax levy, based on total appropriations. Settled claims resulting from these risks did not exceed commercial insurance coverage
during the three years ended June 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012.

NOTE 19.RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)
Public Entity Risk Pools
In 1986, the City joined together with other Montana cities to form the Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority which established a workers'
compensation plan, and a tort liability plan. Both public entity risk pools currently operate as common risk management and insurance
programs for the member governments.
The liability limits for damages in tort action are $750,000 per claim and $1.5 million per occurrence, and $12.5 million per occurrence for
any claim that is not subject to the limitations on governmental liability, as described in Montana Code Annotated Section 2-9-108 (the
Statute) or any successor statute, either as matter of law, by operation of the Statute, or by a judicial determination that the Statute is
inapplicable or is otherwise invalid, with $11,250 deductible per occurrence. State tort law limits the City's liability to $1.5 million. The City
pays premiums for its employee injury insurance coverage, which is allocated to the employer funds based on total salaries and wages. The
agreements for formation of the pools provide that they will be self-sustaining through member premiums. The tort liability plan and workers'
compensation program issued debt of $4.41 million and $6.155 million, respectively, to immediately finance the necessary insurance reserves.
All members signed a contingent note for a pro rata share of this liability in case operating revenues were insufficient to cover the debt
service; the debt was retired in 2011.
The City also owns a policy with MMIA for loss or damage to property. This is an all risk policy, essentially all property owned by the City
being insured for 100% of replacement cost, subject to a $5,000 deductible per occurrence. MMIA reinsures their property insurance with a
national municipal pool, Public Entities’ Property Insurance.
NOTE 20.CONTINGENCIES
Arnone, et al., v. City of Bozeman
This case was filed in August 2014, and is pending in the Montana Eighteenth Judicial District Court, Gallatin County. In this case, the
Plaintiffs allege that the City and its Commissioners passed an ordinance without the authority to do so. The City has filed a Motion to
Dismiss the individual commissioners. The City plans to file for a Motion for Summary Judgment by the end of 2014. At this time, it is not
possible to estimate the likelihood of success in this case. The City’s exposure would be limited to potential attorney fees incurred by the
plaintiffs.
Plaintiff v. City of Bozeman
Plaintiff alleges a grievance with the City regarding her termination. Case is scheduled for binding arbitration in 2014. The parties have
agreed to resolve this matter and are negotiating a settlement agreement. The settlement amount is not likely to be significant to the overall
financial positon of the City.

Zahara vs. Montana Firefighter Consortium, Scottsdate Ins. Co., Colony Ins. Co., et al.
The Montana Firefighter Consortium is a group of Montana municipalities (including the City of Bozeman) which conducts joint testing of
prospective firefighters. Plaintiff was tested as a prospective firefighter in the Summer of 2013, at which time Plaintiff suffered an injury.
Plaintiff alleges negligence on the part of the consortium. The case is currently pending insurance resolution. At this time, it is not possible
to determine whether there exist the potential for an unfavorable outcome or to estimate the potential range of loss.
The City is involved with several other lawsuits which arise out of the normal course of operations by the City. Management of the City
intends to vigorously defend each claim and believes no material losses will be incurred on such claims.
Story Mill Landfill Claims
The City has been named in several claims made by residential property owners located near the now closed Story Mill landfill. These claims
are dated between January 2014 and May 2014, and allege damages incurred in connection with the development, operation, and closure of
the landfill, and the development of certain residential subdivisions in the area. Given the preliminary status of these claims, it is not possible
to estimate a likely outcome or possible loss.
On December 15, 2014, the City was made aware that the City's insurer, the Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority (MMIA), filed a
complaint for declaratory relief requesting a Montana state district court determine whether indemnity and defense exist for these claims under
the MMIA Memorandum of Liability Coverage and the XL America, Inc. supplemental pollution policy obtained by the MMIA on the City's
behalf. As of December 15, 2014 the complaint has not been served on the City.
The MMIA complaint involves the City of Bozeman, the MMIA, the MMIA's reinsurer Government Entities Mutual, Inc. and XL America,
Inc. and XL America’s affiliated companies. MMIA’s contends through the allegations in the complaint that XL America, Inc. and its
affiliated companies is obligated to provide the City defense and indemnity as well as remediation coverage. Although the MMIA is currently
providing a defense under a reservation of rights, in the complaint MMIA denies the City coverage under the MMIA Memorandum.
The City continues to assert liability coverage exists for these claims under the MMIA/XL program including both the MMIA Memorandum
and the XL America, Inc. policy and as such the City asserts indemnity and defense should be provided to the City for all claims related to the
Story Mill landfill under the MMIA/XL program. The City will continue to assert coverage exists under the XL America, Inc. insurance
agreement for remediation and legal expenses.

The City has a municipal solid waste landfill. State and Federal laws and regulations require the City to place a final cover on its landfill site
when it stops accepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions at the site for 30 years after final closure. The
City stopped accepting waste effective June 30, 2008. The final capping of the cells is still pending. The City has accrued a liability for
$4,239,847, which is its estimate of future landfill closure and post-closure care costs as of June 30, 2014. This amount is based on a
Corrective Measures Assessment completed in September 2014 by a third party engineering firm, from which a remediation plan has been
adopted by the City and has been approved the Montana Department of Environmental Quality.

NOTE 24. POLLUTION REMEDIATION OBLIGATIONS
Jewel v. City of Bozeman / State of Montana v. City of Bozeman
This action was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Montana. The multi-count complaint reduced itself to a cost
recovery action under the Federal Superfund (CERCLA) and State Superfund (CECRA). On July 8, 1999, the City, Jewel Food Stores, Inc.
and the other parties reached a final settlement agreement in this action. The settlement, in part, required Jewel Food Stores, Inc. to pay the
City of Bozeman $1,200,000, the City and Jewel to extend alternative water supply to businesses and residents in the North 19th Avenue area
of the City; and Jewel and the City to share specified remediation costs on an equal basis (50% each) up to a cumulative amount of
$4,000,000, and for eligible costs in excess of that amount, to be shared 70% by Jewel and 30% by the City. The City is reimbursed by
insurers for 23% of the City’s expenditures for these purposes.
The Montana Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) issued the Record of Decision (ROD) for the Bozeman Solvent Site (BSS) in
August 2011. The Administrative Order of Consent (AOC) was finalized in January 2012. The ROD and AOC specifically delineate the
remediation to be completed for the BSS. The AOC serves as the legal mechanism for the implementation of the selected remedies identified
in the ROD. Though remediation may be completed relatively quickly, monitoring of the site will continue for a period of up to 30 years.
ATC and Associates, Inc. serves as the Project Engineer for the potentially liable parties (the City of Bozeman and CVS Pharmacy, Inc.).
Based on the selected remedies identified in the ROD, ATC has completed a long-term cost projection for the project. The long-term cost
projection for the City is $2,591,609 in remediation costs and $1,042,899 to the MDEQ for its cost recovery, for a total of $3,634,508.
Reduced by its insurer’s reimbursement, the amount is $2,939,057. This liability is recorded in the Waste Water Fund.
CMC Asbestos Bozeman CECRA Facility
In 2001, the City purchased the former CMC Heartland Partners property, the main portion of the CMC Asbestos Bozeman CECRA Facility
(“Facility”), in order to build a new public library. The City submitted a Voluntary Cleanup Plan (“VCP”) pursuant to Montana statutes, to the
Department of Environmental Quality (“DEQ”) in order to remediate contamination within the Facility. The DEQ approved the City’s VCP
on December 20, 2002. The City implemented the VCP and its addendums and submitted a Voluntary Cleanup Completion Report for the
CMC East Main Depot Site in August 2004. In 2003, at the commencement of the remedial activity, the City of Bozeman petitioned the DEQ
for an allocation of liability at the facility. Montana statutes provide a voluntary process (CALA) that allows potentially liable parties to
petition for an allocation of liability as an alternative to the strict, joint and several liability scheme included in state law. CALA involves
negotiations designed to allocate liability among persons involved at the facility, including bankrupt or defunct persons, referred to as the
“orphan shares.” CALA also provides the funding for the orphan share of the cost of remediation. An agreement was reached that allocates
79% liability to the orphan shares.

CMC Asbestos Bozeman CECRA Facility (Continued)
On December 21, 2006, the City agreed to act as lead person to conduct remaining remedial activates at the CMC Facility. In 2008, the City
submitted and the Montana Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) approved an addendum to the 2002 Voluntary Cleanup Plan (VCP).
The remaining remedial activities at the Facility were completed in 2009. On October 25, 2010, the DEQ issued a “no further action” letter
for the work completed under the VCP. The DEQ determined that all the requirements of CECRA were fully met, including the requirement
that “conditions at the facility assure present and long term protection of public health, safety and welfare, and the environment.” Certain
inaccessible areas within the Facility were suspected to contain asbestos ore. Various institutional controls and restrictions were put in place
on specific properties within the Facility to mitigate the risk posed to the public health, safely, and welfare and the environment. Although
DEQ has issued “no further action” letters for certain properties, the ongoing presence of contamination of City property as well as the nature
of the institutional controls prohibit delisting of the Facility, and it will remain on the CECRA Priority List until the contamination is
addressed or the institutional controls are otherwise no longer necessary to ensure protection of human health or the environment.
The allocation agreement requires the City to complete remedial actions at the facility. The City retained the services of an environmental
engineering firm, Tetra Tech, to prepare a Supplemental Investigation (SI) Work Plan. The plan was approved by the DEQ and implemented
from December 2007 through June 2008. Tetra Tech’s Final SI Report was submitted to DEQ on June 20, 2008. This report describes the
contaminated soils remaining at the Facility and provides recommendations for corrective actions. The recommendation for corrective action
involves a DEQ-approved Addendum to the City’s original Voluntary Cleanup Plan.
At the City’s request, the DEQ made a hardship determination for the City on August 8, 2007, pursuant to state statute. This hardship
determination means that the City is eligible to have all of its ongoing actual documented remedial action costs reimbursed, subject to
eligibility, as soon as the City expends the money.
Montana law provides that costs may not be reimbursed until all remedial actions are complete. To date, all payments from DEQ to the City
for the initial remedial action have been received, leaving no estimated remaining reimbursement amount.
On September 29, 2013, the City entered into an agreement with Olive & Wallace, LLC to remediate the Former Harrington’s property,
including the small portion of potential asbestos on a property-line light post shared with the adjacent Story Distributing site. The agreement
releases the City from any liability for amounts beyond what the State’s Orphan Share Fund will provide. The agreement also calls for the
City to act as a “pass through” for payments from the Orphan Share Fund to the property owner. Clean-up activities occurred in the spring
and summer of 2014. The final status of the property cleanup is still pending with the DEQ. When DEQ determines that the property is
sufficiently cleared of contaminants, the City’s remediation liability will be adjusted.
As of June 30, 2014, the City has accrued $16,874 on the entity-wide financials for governmental activities, which is the potential remediation
liability net of projected recoveries.

Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the City. This
schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and
businesses of Bozeman. This process recognizes that, when considering the City's ability to issue and repay long-term debt,
the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However, this does not imply
that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping government.
(1) The percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable assessed property values. Applicable percentages
were estimated by determining the portion of another governmental unit's taxable assessed value that is within the City's
boundaries and dividing it by each entity's total taxable assessed value.

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
Honorable Mayor, City Commissioners, and City Manager of the
City of Bozeman, Montana
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 Bozeman, Montana (the City), as of and
for the year ended June 30, 2014, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon, dated December 22,
2014.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of Bozeman’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 City of Bozeman’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on
the effectiveness of City of Bozeman’s internal control.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in
internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that
were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs we identified a deficiency in internal controls
that we consider to be a material weakness.
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. We consider the deficiency described in the accompanying schedule of findings and
questioned costs as 2014-01 to be a material weakness.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether City of Bozeman’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 one instance of noncompliance or other matters that are required to
be reported under Government Auditing Standards. See Finding 2014-01.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS & BUSINESS ADVISORS
City of Bozeman Response to Findings
City of Bozeman’s response to the finding identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule. City of Bozeman’s response was not
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance, and the results of that testing, and not to provide
an opinion on the effectiveness of the 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.

Bozeman’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned
costs
Management’s Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance on each of City of Bozeman’s major federal programs based on our audit of the types of
compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the
United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-
133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements
(referred to above), which could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence about City of Bozeman’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 on compliance for each major federal program. However,our audit does not
provide a legal determination of City of Bozeman’s compliance.
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
In our opinion, the City of Bozeman complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a
direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Other Matters
The results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance, which are required to be reported in accordance with OMB Circular A-133
and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as Findings 2014-02 and 2014-03. Our opinion on each major
federal program is not modified with respect to these matters.

The City of Bozeman’s response to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and
questioned costs. The City of Bozeman’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we
express no opinion on the response.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of City of Bozeman is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance
requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered City of Bozeman’s internal control over compliance
with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on the major federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program and to test and report on internal
control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, 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 City of Bozeman’s internal control over compliance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify
all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or
significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as discussed below, we identified a deficiency in internal control over compliance
that we consider to be a material weaknesses.
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance
requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness
in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. A material weakness in internal control
over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that
material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis.
We consider the deficiencies in internal control over compliance described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2014-
03 to be a material weakness.
The City of Bozeman’s response to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of
findings and questioned costs. The City of Bozeman’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and,
accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the
results of that testing based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-133. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Section II –Financial Statement Findings
2014-01 Budgetary Amendments
Criteria:Montana Code Annotated (MCA) 7-6-4006-4 requires that the governing body may amend the budget during the fiscal year by conducting public
hearings at regularly scheduled meetings. City of Bozeman Commission Resolution No. 4449 allows the City Manager budget amendment authority for
expenditures related to federal grants accepted and approved by the City Commission.
Condition: The City did not accept and approve this federal grant during fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. No budget amendment was approved by the City
Commission during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 for this expenditure. The budgetary approval occurred in October 2014, the time at which this
administrative oversight was discovered.
Context: The City was the recipient of a federal award for the purchase of a police emergency response vehicle under CFDA 97.067. Under this award,
the City expended $249,537. All other budgets were approved in accordance with the criteria set forth in MCA and by Resolution No. 4449.
Effect: The City did not follow established guidelines for approving budgetary appropriations in relation to this expenditure.
Cause: The City did not have adequate processes to ensure compliance with the requirements described above.
Recommendation: The City should establish procedures to ensure the entire population of budgetary appropriations are approved timely and in accordance
with established requirements.
City of Bozeman’s Response: We agree with the auditor’s comments and have already put a new Administrative Order in place to help ensure this doesn’t
happen again. Administrative Order No. 2014-01, adopted September 30, 2014 and entitled “Adoption of Grant Application and Reception Policy”,
requires that the appropriate department director provide written notification to the City Manager and City Commission within 30 days of all grant
applications exceeding $20,000. The Order also requires that all grant agreements exceeding $20,000 must be authorized by the City Commission. In
Audit Finding 2014-01, the Finance Department had actually processed and posted a Budget Amendment in a timely manner.However, this Amendment
was processed unknowingly without authorization, as it was incorrectly assumed by the Finance Department that this amendment fell under Section 4 of
the annual Budget Appropriation Commission Resolution No. 4449, adopted for fiscal year 2014 by the City Commission, which states: “Pursuant to
Sections 7-6-4006 and 7-6-4012, M.C.A., the City Commission hereby delegates appropriation and budget amendment authority to the City Manager for
the expenditures from………federal…....grants accepted and approved by the City Commission….…..”. Thus, the underlying problem was that the
federal grant in this case had not been accepted and approved by the City Commission. Administrative Order 2014-01 ensures that such a federal grant
will indeed be accepted and approved by the City Commission going forward. To help ensure that the entire population of budgetary appropriations is
approved timely and in accordance with established requirements, the Finance Department will apply a higher level of scrutiny to any and all proposed
Budget Amendments and will not make any assumptions whatsoever that established prerequisite criteria have been met. Steps taken will include, but are
not limited to:reviewing all Grant Routing Cover Sheets, which is a tool created to facilitate compliance with the new Grant Application and Reception
Policy; and, where applicable, confirming that large expenditures were scheduled in a Capital Improvement Plan adopted by the City Commission.

Section III –Federal Award Finding and Questioned Costs
2014-02 Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act Reporting –Rural Domestic Violence Assistance Program –CFDA 16.589
Criteria:The Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) requires that recipients of Federal awards report first-tier subaward data to
the FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS), for subgrants above $25,000.
Condition: The City prepared, but did submit, the reports required under FFATA.
Context: The City was the recipient of a federal award for Rural Domestic Violence Assistance. To execute the operational objectives of this program, the
City entered into sub recipient agreements with five entities. Under these agreements, $359,286 is to be passed through as subgrants.
Effect: The City did not comply with the reporting requirements of FFATA.
Cause: The City’s internal control processes over FFATA reporting were adequately designed, but not properly executed or monitored.
Recommendation: The City should establish additional monitoring procedures over the completeness of FFATA reporting.
City of Bozeman’s Response: We agree with the auditor’s comments and the City will establish additional monitoring procedures over the completeness
of FFATA reporting. Rather than assume that the department receiving the grant will complete and submit the required FFATA reports, and rather than
assume that the department receiving the grant is correct in their interpretation of when a FFATA submission is required, the Finance Department will
instead oversee the FFATA reporting process.

2014-03 Time and Effort Documentation –Rural Domestic Violence Assistance Program –CFDA 16.589
Criteria:2 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 225 requires that when an employee works on multiple activities or cost objectives, a distribution of
their salaries or wages will be supported by personnel activity reports or equivalent documentation. This documentation is required when employees work
on more than one federal award or a Federal award and a non-Federal award, or two or more activities.
Condition: The City’s did not maintain appropriate personnel activity reports demonstrating cost allocation between Federal and non-Federal time and
effort. Appropriate documentation supporting cost allocations between Federal and non-Federal time and effort for subgrantees was not obtained.
Context: The City expended $185,477 under this award during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014. Of these expenditures, $134,386 represents
expenditures for personnel costs, both direct and for subgrantees.
Effect: Actual time and effort expended on Federal and non-Federal programs cannot be reasonably assured.
Cause: The City’s internal control processes did not meet the criteria set forth at 2 CFR, Part 225.
Recommendation: The City should establish additional documentation practices to demonstrate time and effort for employees and surecipients working in
more than one activity or objective.
City of Bozeman’s Response: We agree with the auditor’s comments and the City will establish additional documentation practices to demonstrate time
and effort for employee and subrecipients working in more than one activity or objective. Corrective measures include establishing a common uniform
timesheet to be filled out by all grant employees and subrecipients which will be readily identifiable as being in compliance with the criteria set for in 2
CFR, Part 225, as opposed to the varied and often confusing timesheets which are currently being submitted by grant sub-recipients.

To the Board of City Commissioners
Bozeman, Montana
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the
aggregate remaining fund information of City of Bozeman (the City)for the year ended June
30, 2014. Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our
responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards Government Auditing Standards
and OMB Circular A-133,as well as certain information related to the planned scope and
timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated July
9, 2014. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following
information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The
significant accounting policies used by the City are described in Note 1 to the financial
statements. During 2014, the City adopted the following new accounting policy:
GASB 65 –Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities
We noted no transactions entered into by the governmental unit during the year for which
there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been
recognized in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by
management and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and
current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are
particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of
the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected.
The most sensitive estimates affecting the financial statements were:(i) valuation of the
solvent site remediation liability in the waste water fund, which is based on an engineer’s
projection of the long term costs; (ii) valuation of post-closure costs for the landfill, which is
based on an engineer’s estimate of landfill post-closure care costs; (iii) depreciation expense,
which is based on management’s estimate of useful lives of fixed assets and (iv) the liability
for the other post-employment benefits which is based on an actuarial study. We evaluated
the key factors and assumptions used to develop these estimates and determined that they
are reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Certain financial statement disclosures are particularly sensitive because of their
significance to financial statement users. The most sensitive disclosure affecting the
financial statements was the Other Post Employment Benefit disclosure in Note 15 to the
financial statements.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.

Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and
completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements
identified during the audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the
appropriate level of management. The attached schedule summarizes corrected
misstatements of the financial statements.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management as a financial accounting,
reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be
significant to the financial statements or the auditor’s report. We are pleased to report that
no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the
management representation letter dated December __, 2014
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and
accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a
consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the governmental unit’s
financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be
expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant
to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge,
there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles
and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the governmental
unit’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our
professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to the management’s discussion and analysis, the
budgetary comparison –General Fund and Special Revenue Major Funds, and Schedule of
Funding Progress –Other Postemployment Benefits, which are required supplementary
information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted
of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or
provide any assurance on the RSI.

We were engaged to report on the combining fund statements, other budgetary comparison
reports, and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, which accompany the financial
statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain
inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of preparing the
information to determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from
the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of
the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the
underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial
statements themselves.
We were not engaged to report on the introductory or statistical sections, which accompany
the financial statements but are not RSI. We did not audit or perform other procedures on
this other information and we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.
Internal Control
In planning and performing our audit of the City of Bozeman as of and for the year ended
June 30, 2014, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America, we considered the County’s internal control over financial reporting (internal
control) as a basis for designing auditing procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the schedule but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control.
Accordingly, we have not expressed an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal
controls.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued 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.
In addition, we have audited the City’s compliance requirements under OMB Circular A-
133 and have issued our report on the City’s compliance for each major program and on
internal control over compliance required by OMB Circular A-133.
However, during our audit we became aware of other matters that are opportunities for
strengthening internal controls and operating efficiency. This letter does not affect our report
dated December __, 2014,on the financial statements of the City, and represent
recommendations or areas of emphasis regarding internal controls.

2014-A –Adjusting Journal Entries
We proposed, and management accepted, journal entries to correct the classification of an
internal loan between the SID Revolving Fund and the SID Debt Service Fund. In addition,
we proposed an adjustment to properly reflect these balances in the government-wide
statement of net position. The effect of this entry affected prior period balances by an
amount not material to the overall financial statements. We recommend management
develop key procedures to review the government-wide financial statements.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANT’S REPORT ON APPLYING AGREED-UPON PROCEDURES
To the City Manager, Honorable Mayor and City Commissioners
City of Bozeman
Bozeman, Montana
We have performed the agreed-upon procedures enumerated below, which were agreed to by the City of Bozeman (the “City”) and the State of Montana Department of Commerce –
Building Codes Division, solely to assist you with compliance with ARM 24.301.208 for the
year ended June 30, 2014. This agreed-upon procedures engagement was conducted in
accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The sufficiency of these procedures is solely the responsibility of those parties specified in the report. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the
sufficiency of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report has
been requested or for any other purpose.
Our procedures and findings are as follows:
a) We determined that the City of Bozeman’s accounting records fully document the
collection and expenditure of all fees and charges related to the Building Code
Enforcement Program during the 2014 fiscal year. Based on the City’s accounting records, we have presented a schedule of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance of the Building Code Enforcement Fund for the 2014 fiscal year, in
Schedule A.
No unusual items noted. b) We compared the financial information included in the 2014 “Fiscal Report”
submitted to the State Building Codes Bureau to corresponding information in the
City’s accounting records, and verified that the information was the same.
No unusual items noted.
c) From selected building permit applications, we compared permit fees charged in
2014 to the permit fee schedule established by the City and approved by the State
Building Codes Bureau, and verified that the fees were the same. No unusual items noted.
DRAFT
313
- 2 -
d) From selected 2014 building permit applications, we compared the total building permit fee paid to the amount credited to the Building Code Enforcement Program,
and verified that the amounts agreed and that no portion of the fee was diverted to
other functions of the government.
No unusual items noted.
e) We examined selected 2014 expenditures and other charges made from Building
Code Enforcement Program-related fees and determined that all were necessary and
reasonable costs directly and specifically identifiable to the enforcement of building codes, (with the exception of indirect costs charged to the Building Code Enforcement Program – see procedures “g” and “h” below). (“Fixed charges” and
prior period adjustments are itemized in Schedule B.)
No unusual items noted. f) We examined selected 2014 expenditures from the Building Code Enforcement
Program and determined that no portion of permit fees collected were used to
support fire departments, planning, zoning, or other activities, except to the extent
that employees of those programs provided direct plan review, inspection or other building code enforcement services for the Building Code Enforcement Program. If so, we obtained documentation from the government that supports the performance
of these direct services and that documents that these costs were properly charged to
the Building code Enforcement Program for specifically allowable services. (The
costs related to fire departments, planning, zoning or other activities are reported in detail in Schedule B.)
No unusual items noted.
g) For indirect costs allocated to the Building Code Enforcement Program in 2014, we verified that the basis used to allocate costs to the Building Code Enforcement
Program was the same basis used to allocate indirect costs to other proprietary funds
of the City, and we verified that indirect costs waived for any other proprietary fund
of the City were also waived for the Building Code Enforcement Program. (Total
indirect costs are itemized in Schedule B.)
No unusual items noted.
h) For indirect costs charged to the Building Code Enforcement Program in 2014, we
verified that they were limited to those costs allowed under OMB Circular A-87. No unusual items noted.
DRAFT
314
- 3 -
i) For transfers out of the Building Code Enforcement Program Fund in 2014, we obtained detailed documentation from the City that describes the purposes and
eventual uses of these transfers, and verified that these purposes and uses are in
accordance with allowable expenditures, as addressed in the procedures performed
above. (Transfers are itemized in Schedule B) No unusual items noted.
j) We verified that 0.5% of 2014 revenues from plan reviews and building permits (not
including revenues from electrical, mechanical or plumbing permits) collected during the year were remitted to the State Department of Labor and Industry for the building codes education program.
No unusual items noted.
k) Based on the financial information presented in Schedule A, we determined whether the reserve account (fund balance) exceeded the amount needed to support the
Building Code Enforcement program for twelve months. If so, we verified that the
City of Bozeman had taken steps to reduce permit fees.
No unusual items noted.
The following schedules accompany this report:
Schedule A presents the City’s beginning of year fund balance, the total revenues, total expenditures by object classification, transfers, any other financing sources/uses, prior period adjustments in 2014, and ending fund balance for
the Building Code Enforcement Fund for the year ended June 30, 2014.
Schedule B presents an itemization, if applicable, of:
Indirect costs, including a description of the functions represented.
Costs related to fire department, planning, zoning, and other activities.
Costs reported in Schedule A as “fixed charges”.
Each transfer, including a description as to which fund the transfer is made,
and the purpose of the transfer.
Each prior period adjustment, describing the purpose of the adjustment
and the account (other than fund balance) affected.
Schedule C presents findings and recommendations resulting from performing the
above agreed-upon procedures.
We were not engaged to, and did not conduct an audit, the objective of which would be the
expression of an opinion on the City’s financial statement. Accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come
to our attention that would have been reported to you.
