The Honorable Mayor and Council Members
20195 Holyoke Avenue
Lakeville, Minnesota 55044
Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council and Citizens of the City of Lakeville:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is hereby presented for the purpose of
providing you, the reader, with a thorough overview of the financial affairs of the City for
the year ended December 31, 2016. The Report was prepared in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP).
This report was prepared by the City’s Finance Department and consists of
management’s representations concerning the finances of the City. Consequently,
management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all
information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these
representations, management of the City has established internal controls designed to
protect the City’s assets from loss, theft or misuse and to provide sufficient reliable
information for the preparation of these financial statements in conformity with GAAP.
Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City’s
internal controls have been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance,
that the financial statements will be free from material misstatements. As management,
we assert that to the best of our knowledge and belief this report is complete and reliable
in all material respects.
The City of Lakeville’s financial statements have been audited by CliftonLarsonAllen
LLP, a professional firm of certified public accountants. The independent auditor’s report
is included in the Financial Section of this report. The auditors have given this report an
unmodified (“clean”) opinion, meaning that the financial statements fairly present the
City’s financial position at December 31, 2016 and the changes in financial position for
the year then ended.
Management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent
auditors’ report and provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic
financial statements. MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in
conjunction with it.

Profile of Government
The City of Lakeville is a suburban community located 20 miles south of downtown
Minneapolis in the southeast corner of the Twin Cities metropolitan area within Dakota
County. Lakeville enjoys an excellent location, with convenient access to the
Minneapolis-Saint Paul metropolitan area via interstate highway I-35. The City is also
just 25 minutes from the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport. Lakeville
continues to be one of the fastest growing cities in Minnesota with a population that has
grown from 43,128 in 2000 to 60,965 in 2016.
The City of Lakeville operates under the Mayor-Council form of organization. The
governing City Council consists of the Mayor and four other Council members. The City
Council is responsible for, among other things, passing ordinances, adopting the budget,
appointing members to the various committees and commissions and hiring the City
Administrator. The City Administrator is responsible for carrying out the policies,
directions and ordinances of the City Council and for overseeing the day-to-day
operations of the City. The City Council is elected on a non-partisan at-large basis. The
Mayor is elected to serve a two-year term, while Council members serve four-year
staggered terms, with two Council Members elected every two years. Effective following
the 2018 election the mayoral term will change to a four-year term.
The City provides its residents and businesses with a full range of municipal services
consisting of public safety (police and fire), public works, parks and recreation, and
general government administration. The City also operates two enterprises: utilities
(public water, sanitary sewer, street lights and environmental resources) and off-sale
liquor stores. Sewage treatment and disposal is operated on a regional basis by the
Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) and refuse collection and disposal
are handled on a private basis through contractual arrangements by City residents with
private haulers. Further information regarding city services can be obtained from the
City’s website at www.lakevillemn.gov
The City is financially accountable for the Housing and Redevelopment Authority
(HRA), which is included in the City’s financial statement. Additional information on the
HRA can be found in Note 1A. – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies of the
Notes to Basic Financial Statements.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Lakeville’s financial planning
and control. The budgetary process is outlined in the notes within the required
supplementary information section of this report. The City applies budgetary controls to
ensure compliance with legal provisions of the laws of Minnesota. Budgets are adopted
on a basis consistent with GAAP. Annual budgets are adopted for the general fund and
special revenue funds. The general fund budgetary comparison schedules are presented
within the required supplementary information section and the special revenue funds
budgetary comparison schedules are presented in the nonmajor governmental funds
subsection of this report.

Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The City of Lakeville is committed to maintaining a strong financial condition, while
continuing to provide quality public services to its residents and businesses. The City’s
financial position, as reflected in the financial statements presented in this report, is
perhaps best understood when it is considered from the broader perspective of the
environment within which the City operates.
Local Economy
The City’s tax base is primarily residential and consists of mostly single family homes.
Commercial and industrial properties make up approximately eleven percent of the tax
base. The City’s valuation declined from its peak in 2009 to a low point in 2013. Since
2013, valuations have steadily grown due to a mix of new construction and appreciating
values. The City has grown by an estimated 5,200 new residents or approximately 9.3%
since 2009, while the number of City employees has increased by 7.6%.
The City has a land area of 38 square miles with approximately 30% of its land available
for development. In 2016, final plats were approved for 385 single family units, 36
detached townhomes, 20 twin homes, 30 attached townhomes, 111 apartment units, five
commercial developments and one institutional development.
The trend for building permit activity for single family homes is on the rise with building
permits for single family homes/detached townhomes increasing from 366 in 2015 to 403
in 2016. The 2017 budget is premised on conservative but assumed steady growth of
new single family homes in the coming year.

According to the Dakota County Assessor’s office, the median value home increased by
3.95% as of March 2016 (for taxes payable 2017). The trend of improving market
values is expected to continue as the number of foreclosures and regional unemployment
becomes more favorable. The improving housing market is also strengthened with the
current low inflation and interest rate environment.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Lakeville’s unemployment rate is favorable
compared to the State and National rates.

Major Initiatives
A number of pressures and issues confronting the City were taken into account with the
2016 adopted budget including community growth, aging infrastructure, inflationary
pressures, emerging trends, innovation and efficiencies, entrepreneurial efforts and
preparing for the future.
Community Growth. New residential housing construction continues to rise due in large
part to improved economic conditions. The resumption of growth will result in increased
demands for infrastructure enhancements as well as service delivery such as inspections,
code enforcement, police, fire, streets and parks.
Addressing Aging Infrastructure. Our City has more than $300 million of investment in
infrastructure such as roads, water mains, parks, trails, facilities, equipment and other
assets. The assets have maintenance, and in certain situations, replacement requirements.
The 2016 budget addressed the short-term plan while the Capital Improvement Plan
addressed the anticipated intermediate and long term needs. The most significant 2016
projects included:
Accelerated pavement management program to improve city-wide pavement
management index
o 2015 Street Reconstruction – Phase I & II
o 2016 Street Reconstruction
o Dodd Boulevard reconstruction from 194th to 185th streets

Inflationary Pressures. As the economy improves there will be upward pressure on
commodities, services and personnel costs. Although inflation is still relatively benign,
the budget anticipated modest price increases in the near term.
Emerging Trends. There are trends emerging within our community which are
influenced at least in part by external factors such as technology-related crimes.
Currently, there is a defined need for our community to react to or be prepared to react to
the issues; however, there is little or no financial assistance available from State or
Federal agencies to react to the trends.
Innovation and Efficiencies. Lakeville has a long-standing history of being fiscally
conservative and prudent. In spite of the fact that the City of Lakeville receives no state
aid for property tax relief, per capita current expenditures for operations are still amongst
the lowest in the twin cities according to the Minnesota State Auditor’s Office. The
adopted budget included several initiatives which continued the focus on a commitment
to cost effectiveness and efficiencies. Effective application of technology is a major
factor in optimizing organizational efficiencies.
Entrepreneurial Efforts. Continued marketing initiatives are proposed to promote
economic developments. Several years ago, property was acquired in southwestern
Lakeville for a future new liquor store to improve revenues and sales opportunities.
Preparing for the Future. As a Community that embraces a high quality of life and a
pro-business attitude, Lakeville is “Positioned to Thrive.” It is an objective that embraces
a vision for the future and a commitment to preparing for it.
Long-term Financial Planning
There is an interrelationship between a community’s physical development and its long-
term financial plan. A comprehensive plan provides the guidance for current and future
land use and public infrastructure decisions to provide managed growth throughout the
community. The City of Lakeville completed an update of its Comprehensive Plan in
2008.
A Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a flexible, five-year plan that identifies the City’s
infrastructure, development objectives and allocation of financial resources. It provides
policy makers and the community with a strategic (documented) approach to
implementation and administration of improvement projects. The City will invest $134
12
million in transportation, utility, equipment, facilities and parks over the next five years
to achieve program objectives.
As of December 31, 2016, the City of Lakeville had approximately $131.950 million of
debt outstanding including $7.115 million of refunding debt issued in September 2016 to
refinance the HRA Lease Revenue Bonds Series 2006. The City will issue approximately
$43 million general obligation improvement bonds in the coming years to finance street
reconstruction projects.

Relevant Financial Policies
The City has a number of policies which are utilized in the management of its fiscal
affairs. The primary policies include, but are not limited to, operating budget policy,
budget amendment process, revenue, debt, investment and fund balance.
Operating Budgets. The City’s operating budget policy sets forth guidance with
respect to balanced operating budgets, with an overriding goal of achieving structural
balance over a longer-term period, while recognizing that in certain periods, revenues
and expenditures may not be equal. A balanced budget for the General Fund is
defined as revenues and other sources equal to or exceeding operating expenditures
and other uses. Other sources can include that portion of General Fund balance that is
allowed to be budgeted for use per the City’s fund balance policy. The budget will
provide for adequate maintenance of capital facilities and equipment and for their
orderly replacement.
Balanced budgets for the proprietary enterprise funds are defined as providing
sufficient revenues to support the operations of those funds, without subsidy from the
General Fund or property taxes. Charges from the Proprietary Internal Service Funds
shall be sufficient to support such activities, with no trend of operating deficits.
The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the level at which expenditures may not
legally exceed appropriations) is at the department level for the General Fund and
total expenditures level for Special Revenue Funds. The City Administrator has
authorization to expend funds in excess of the appropriation for individual line items.
Budgeted expenditure appropriations lapse at year-end. Supplementary 90,112,027 87,295,000 85,995,000 88,005,000 97,295,000 119,290,000 22.5M22.5M25.4M12.7M

appropriations can be carried forward to the following year if approved by the City
Council.
Revenue Policies. The City will project its annual revenues by a conservative
objective and thorough analytical process. The City will endeavor to maintain a
diversified and stable revenue system to shelter it from annual fluctuations in any one
revenue source. All existing and potential revenue sources will be reexamined
annually. New sources of non-property-tax revenue should be actively explored at all
times. Where appropriate and not contrary to accepted public policy or statutes,
emphasis will be directed toward full cost recovery through user fees. User fees and
cost allocation formulas will be updated periodically (annually, if needed). Ongoing,
the City will review the full cost of activities supported by user fees to identify the
impact of inflation and other factors. The fees along with the resulting net property
tax costs will be reviewed with the City Council during the budget process.
Sensitivity to market rates will also be considered in setting fees. Intergovernmental
grant requests are subject to fiscal review before the application is submitted. This
review is to ensure that the grants do not create an obligation for unfunded
expenditures by the City relating to the grant’s purpose and to provide an overall
budgetary review of grant proposals.
Debt. The City’s debt policy provides guidance to ensure that long-term debt is
utilized appropriately and in a fiscally prudent manner. Limiting long-term
borrowing to capital improvements or other long-term projects which cannot, and
appropriately should not, be financed from current revenues. Final maturity of bonds
and notes should not exceed the expected useful life of the underlying project for
which it is being issued. Where possible, the City will endeavor to pledge special
assessments, State-aid or other non-tax revenues to debt service payments.
Investments. The City’s policy is to invest all available monies at competitive
interest rates, coordinated with projections of the City’s operating and program cash
flow needs. Interest earnings will be distributed to the funds based on the average
cash balances. Investments will take into consideration safety, liquidity and yield as
well as complying with State regulations.
Fund Balance. Fund balance or net position are terms used to define the difference
between a fund’s assets, deferred outflows of financial resources, liabilities and
deferred inflows of financial resources. Fund balance is used in governmental fund
types and net position is used in proprietary fund types and also the government-wide
financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
City Council and Management,
City of Lakeville
Lakeville, Minnesota
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 the City of Lakeville,
as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements,
which collectively comprise the entity’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes
the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair
presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or
error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express 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 auditors’ 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.
19
City Council and Management
City of Lakeville
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major
fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Lakeville as of December 31, 2016,
and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year
then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
Emphasis of Matter
During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, the City of Lakeville changed its accounting policy
related to the valuation of certain General Fund inventories, specifically those related to snow-removing
chemicals, from the consumption method to the purchases method. This change in accounting principle
and its effects are disclosed in Note 1 to the basic financial statements. Our auditors’ opinion was not
modified with respect to the restatement.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
Management’s Discussion and Analysis and Required Supplementary Information (RSI), as listed in the
table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information,
although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic
financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied
certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of
management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for
consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other
knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an
opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us
with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City of Lakeville’s basic financial statements. The introductory section,
combining and individual fund statements and schedules, supplementary information, and statistical
sections are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements.
The combining and individual fund statements and schedules and supplementary information are the
responsibility of management and was derived from and relates 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 supplementary information is fairly stated, in all
material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
20
City Council and Management
City of Lakeville
The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in
the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide
any assurance on them.

CITY OF LAKEVILLE, MINNESOTA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
As management of the City of Lakeville, (the City), we offer readers of the City’s
financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the
City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. The discussion and analysis is
intended to be considered in conjunction with the additional information that we have
furnished in our letter of transmittal, located earlier in this report, and the City’s financial
statements contained within this report.
Financial Highlights
The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources by $328,502,075 (net position) at the close of the
most recent fiscal year. Of this amount, $11,891,579 (unrestricted net position)
may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and
creditors.
The City’s total net position increased by $32,669,105 in 2016.
The City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of
$73,948,634. Of this total amount, $35,305,107 or 47.7% is unrestricted and
available for use within the City’s constraints and policies.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s unrestricted fund balance for
the general fund was $14,380,670 or 58.8% of total general fund expenditures of
$24,450,590.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic
financial statements. The City’s basic financial statements are comprised of three
components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and
3) notes to basic financial statements. This report also contains other required
supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are
designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City’s finances, in a manner
similar to a private-sector business.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the
primary government), but also a legally separate housing and redevelopment authority
(HRA) for which the City is considered to be financially accountable or for which the
nature and significance of their relationship with the City is such that the exclusion would
cause the City’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. Financial
information for this component unit is blended within the financial information presented
for the primary government itself.
23
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City’s assets, deferred
outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference
reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a
useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or
deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net position
changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as
soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of
related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some
items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes
and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that
are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental
activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of
their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental
activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, and parks
and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include the enterprise activities of
the liquor operation and utility operation.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to
maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or
objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to
ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the
funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary
funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same
functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial
statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental
fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable
resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal
year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing
requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide
financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental
funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-
wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term
impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund
balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and
changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between
governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains 24 individual governmental funds. Information is presented
separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the general fund,
24
general obligation (debt service) fund, G.O. improvement (debt service) fund, building
(capital projects) fund, and the improvement construction (capital projects) fund, all of
which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other governmental funds is
combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these
nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements following
the required supplementary information.
The City adopts annual appropriated budgets for its general fund and special revenue
funds. A budgetary comparison schedule has been provided as required supplementary
information for the general fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget. Special
revenue funds budgetary comparison schedules can be found in the nonmajor
governmental funds subsection of the report after the capital projects funds.
Proprietary funds. The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds.
Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type
activities in the government-wide financial statements. The internal service fund is an
accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s
various functions.
The City uses enterprise funds to account for its off-sale liquor and utility (water, sanitary
sewer, street light, and environmental resources) operations. The City uses an internal
service fund to account for its risk management insurance liability program. These
services benefit the governmental and business-type functions; therefore, they have been
included within governmental and business-type activities in the government-wide
financial statements.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial
statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide
separate information for each of the enterprise funds, all of which are considered to be
major funds of the City. The internal service fund is presented in a single aggregated
presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements.
Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit
of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-
wide financial statement because the resources of those funds are not available to support
the City’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used
for proprietary funds.
Notes to basic financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is
essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund
financial statements.
Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying
notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information.
This section includes a budgetary comparison schedule and related notes for the general
fund, a schedule of funding progress for the other post-employment benefits plan of the
City and schedules related to the City’s participation in defined benefit pension plans
25
administered by the Minnesota Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) and
the Lakeville Fire Relief Association. The combining statements referred to earlier in
connection with nonmajor governmental funds are presented immediately following the
required supplementary information.
Government-wide Financial Analysis
An analysis of the City’s financial position begins with a review of the Statement of Net
Position and the Statement of Activities. These two statements report the City’s net
position and changes in net position. It should be noted that the financial position can
also be affected by non-financial factors, including economic conditions, population
growth, and new regulations.
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of the City’s
financial position. As presented in the following condensed version of the Statement of
Net Position, the City’s assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources by $328,502,075 at December 31, 2016. By far the largest
portion or 84.6% of net position is reflected in its net investment in capital assets (e.g.
land, buildings and improvements, machinery and equipment, infrastructure, and
construction in process) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still
outstanding. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens;
consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s net
investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the
resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital
assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

Governmental Activities Business-type Activities Total
The City’s total restricted net position of $38,840,338 comprises 11.8% of total net
position at the close of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2016. These assets are
subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.
26
The 2016 remaining balance of $11,891,579 (3.6% of total net position), in unrestricted
net position may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and
creditors. The unrestricted net position in the governmental activities increased a total of
$7,063,347 primarily due to prior year deficit fund balance in the capital projects water
fund. Certain balances within unrestricted net position have internally imposed
commitments or limitations, which may further limit the purpose for which such net
position may be used.
Change in net position. The City’s 2016 total net position during the current fiscal year
increased by $32,669,105 as shown in the following table. This increase is primarily
attributed to economic conditions and increase in community growth. Additional details
that account for the change in net position are provided in the following analysis of the
governmental and business-type activities.

Governmental Activities Business-type Activities Total
Governmental activities. Governmental activities change in net position before transfers
were an increase of $25,205,157. As previously discussed, this increase is primarily due
to community growth. The governmental revenue increase in charges for services is
directly related to the increase in development activity.
27
Revenues – The City’s 2016 total revenues for governmental activities increased by
$15,702,448. Charges for services increased a total of $468,855 primarily due to

increased earnings and changes in investment asset values which are inversely related to
the changes in market rates. The increase is consistent with prevailing market conditions.

Following are explanations of various increases and (decreases) in expenses by
governmental function as shown above.
General government expenses increased by $2,103,469 or 37.4%; which is primarily
attributed to promoting economic development within the City.
Public safety expenses increased by $4,030,073 or 36.2%; primarily due to the overall
increase in the plan’s net pension projected liability and related defined benefit pension
plan expense due to changes in assumptions. The City’s share of the net pension liability
did not significantly change in 2016.
Public works expenses increased by $1,168,987 or 13.5%; primarily due to poor soil
conditions in our 2015 and 2016 street reconstruction areas. The street and storm sewer
segments were replaced in advance of its expected useful life causing a loss on disposal.
Parks and recreation expenses decreased $250,833 or 6.52%; in part, due to increase in
capital outlay that was capitalized.
Depreciation on capital assets increased by $1,425,141 which is primarily due to an
increase in contributed infrastructure from development.
Interest on long-term debt increased by $633,503 or 19.2%; which is primarily due to
new debt issuances.

75.5%, compared to 75.8% in 2015.
○ The overall utility revenue charges for services increased by $1,475,722. This
overall increase is represented by a water revenue increase of $617,490, sanitary
sewer revenue increase of $583,023, street light revenue increase of $59,078 and
environmental resources revenue increase of $216,131. The water and sanitary
sewer increases are due to customer consumption as a result of changes in weather
patterns, rate increases and an increase in customers as a result of community
growth. The street light and environmental resources increases are due to increase
in customers and rate increases.
33
○ The utility fund experienced a total increase of $2,964,205 in capital contributions.
The majority of the increase is derived from water and sanitary sewer contributed
from developer improvement projects. City improvement project infrastructure
assets of $8,884,748 were contributed to the utility fund which is within the net
transfer amount of $6,978,829 on the Statement of Activities. The total amount of
contributed infrastructure assets received by the utility fund varies yearly.
○ Investment earnings increased $18,648. The increase is the combination of
increased earnings and changes in investment asset values which are inversely
related to the changes in market rates. The increase is consistent with prevailing
market conditions.
The City’s 2016 business-type total expenses increased by $1,682,987 or 11.6% as
follows:

o The liquor fund personnel services increase of $195,436 is primarily the result of
the cost of living increase as well as adjustments to the existing pay structure for
the Assistant Store Managers.
o The utility fund other charges and services increase is attributed to a loss on
disposal several major maintenance projects compared to the previous year.
Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance
with finance-related legal requirements. Some funds are required statutorily while others
are established internally to assist management in accounting for certain activities.
Governmental funds. The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide
information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such
information is useful in assessing the City’s financing requirements. In particular,
unrestricted fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources
available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
34
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City’s governmental funds reported combined
ending fund balances of $73,948,634. Of this amount, $35,305,107 or 47.7% of this
combined ending fund balance constitutes unrestricted fund balance that is available for
spending at the government’s discretion. Nonspendable fund balances of $695,830 are
amounts that are not in a spendable form, such as prepaid items and inventory. The
remaining fund balance is restricted for (a) debt service of $26,130,839, (b) capital
acquisition of $11,758,259, and (c) other restricted purposes of $58,599.
The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal
year, the fund balance was $15,076,500, an increase from the prior year resulting from
$2,393,104 of revenues over expenditures and a change in supplies inventory of
$308,468.
The general obligation (debt service) fund balance decreased by $2,547,021 due to the
payment of refunding debt obligations. The G.O. improvement (debt service) fund
balance increased by $1,762,640. The City levies the required property taxes and special
assessments levied against benefited property owners to meet the bonded debt service
requirements in the following year. The change in fund balance is subject to principal
and interest requirements of existing debt and that of new debt issuance.
The building (capital projects) fund expended $559,188 for major facility maintenance
projects. Financing was provided by $720,551 of revenues from property taxes,
investment income, sale of land and other revenue sources.
The improvement construction (capital projects) fund accounts for major infrastructure
reconstruction projects that require debt issuance for financing purposes. The activity in
this fund may fluctuate from year to year depending on the scope of the project. Large
projects such as the interstate highway interchange and bridge reconstruction projects
may take several years to complete. The fund balance decreased by $792,309 due to the
completion of the 2015 street reconstruction project phase 1 and preliminary engineering
costs associated with the 2017 street reconstruction project. The 2017 street
reconstruction project will be financed with a bond issuance in 2017.
35
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
With the exception of the police and inspections departments, all other general fund
departments expended their 2016 budget appropriations at or below the final adopted
budget. A schedule of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances – budgetary
comparison is disclosed in the required supplemental information section of this report.
A summary of general fund revenues, expenditures, other financing sources (uses),

General Fund
The 2016 actual general fund revenues exceeded the final budget by $1,562,088 and
expenditures were under final adopted budget by $1,088,079. Other financing sources
(uses) were at the final budget. The general fund actual net change in fund balance
surpassed final budget by $2,650,167.
The general fund budget was amended to reflect the increase in revenues from higher
than forecasted building permits and grants that were not originally anticipated. Also,
expenditures were modified to reflect the change in personnel services due to cost of
living increases.
36
The following is a brief summary explanation of the various budgets to actual variances
for revenues:
○ Property taxes were less than anticipated by $78,886 due to a change in allocation
of delinquent taxes. Starting in 2016 all delinquencies will be carried by the
general fund rather than allocated to other funds.
○ Licenses and permits exceeded estimates by $1,102,522 due to greater than
anticipated building permit fees. The number of residential building permits
budgeted were 300 compared to 403 actual.
○ Intergovernmental revenues exceeded estimates by $25,789 due to the timing of
federal grants for public safety highway safety initiatives.
○ Charges for services exceeded estimates by $356,306 which is primarily related to
public works engineering fees derived from reconstruction projects.
○ Fines exceeded estimates by $91,269 due to filling prior year police officer
vacancies in the traffic control division.
○ Investment income was above estimates by $30,951 due to prevailing market
conditions. The City’s Management employs prudent investment practices and
cash management techniques to maximize investment income while protecting the
City’s treasury.
○ Donations and miscellaneous revenues experienced variances of $23,918 and
$10,219, respectively.
The following is a brief summary explanation of the various budgets to actual variances
for expenditures:
○ Personnel costs including benefits were $364,312 below budget estimates due to
vacant positions as a result of retirements, resignations and a delay in filling new
positions.
○ Commodities were $188,493 below budget due to savings from the fuel contract.
○ Other charges and services were $371,864 below budget which is attributed to
milder weather which resulted in overall lower cost of natural gas and electricity.
○ Capital outlay was $43,639 below the budget due to the delay in filling new
positions.

Credit Rating
Aa1
The City of Lakeville’s general obligation bond rating as of
December 31, 2016 is “Aa1” as rated by Moody’s Investors Service.
Moody’s Investor Service credit report stated the rating was “The
Aa1 underlying rating reflects the city’s large and affluent tax base
experiencing continued growth; healthy financial profile highlighted

3% of total assessor’s taxable market valuation. The City has $34,776,313 of net bonded
debt, which is subject to the $174,758,383 current debt limitation, thereby resulting in a
legal debt margin of $139,982,070. Refer to the Statistical Section of this report for a
detailed computation of the City’s legal debt margin.
39
Economic Conditions and Next Year’s Budget
The City of Lakeville remains one of the top growth cities in the Minnesota twin city
metro area. The trend for building permit activity for single family homes is on the rise,
the building permits for single family homes increased to 403 in 2016 compared to 366
permits in 2015. In our opinion, the resurgence is due to several factors including, but
not limited to, near historical low interest rates, low regional unemployment rate of 3.0%,
improved personal income levels, reduced number of home foreclosures and increasing
home values. The budget and five year capital improvement plan are premised on the
assumption growth will continue at a subdued level for the foreseeable future.
The adopted 2017 budget reflects a continuation of the program and service levels
established by the City Council over the past several years. No new programs or services
were included in the adopted budget; however, key staff positions and resources were
added to accommodate community growth. The 2017 budget also focuses on City efforts
to achieve strategic priorities established in the Envision Lakeville Community Vision
Plan to prepare for the future, investments in technology to maximize efficiencies,
developing effective partnerships to capitalize on opportunities and multi-agency
resources, infrastructure improvements to promote economic and community
development and service continuity through staffing enhancements to meet the
expectations of community residents and businesses.

11,160,440$
1. Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures while the government-wide
statement of activities reports depreciation expense to allocate those expenditures
over the life of the assets. As a result, fund balance decreases by the amount of
financial resources expended, whereas net position decreases by the amount of
depreciation expense charged for the year. This is the amount by which depreciation
expense exceeded capital outlay.
Capital outlay 22,617,865$
Capital contributed by developer 19,354,731
Depreciation expense (11,348,209) 30,624,387
2. In the government-wide statement of activities, only the gain or loss on the sale of
capital assets is reported, whereas in the governmental funds, the proceeds from the
sales increase financial resources. Thus, the change in net position differs from the
change in fund balance by the net book value of the capital assets disposed of. (2,920,140)
3. Governmental funds report inventory related to snow removing chemicals as an expenditure
at the time of purchase rather than when it is consumed. The change in supplies is shown
as a direct adjustment to fund balance. On the government-wide statement of activities
inventories are shown as an expenditure when consumed. As a result, the change in net
position must be adjusted by the change in supplies. 308,468
4. Pension expenditures on the governmental funds are measured by current-year employer
contributions. Pension expenses on the statement of activities are measured by the change
in net pension liability and the related deferred inflows and outflows of resources 493,584
5. Revenues in the government-wide statement of activities that do not provide current
financial resources are not reported as revenues in the governmental funds.
Deferred inflows of resources - December 31, 2015 (13,584,120)
Deferred inflows of resources - December 31, 2016 14,732,605 1,148,485
6. Bond proceeds are reported as other financing sources in governmental funds and thus
contribute to the increase in fund balance. Bond and loan principal maturities are reported
as expenditures in governmental funds thus reducing fund balance. In the government-wide
statements, however, issuing debt increases long-term liabilities while debt repayment
reduces long-term liabilities thus affecting the statement of activities.
Bond proceeds (31,075,000)
Bond and loan principal maturities 15,470,000 (15,605,000)
7. Governmental funds report the effect of premiums, discounts and simliar items when debt
is first issued, whereas material amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities.
Change in accrued interest payable (203,169)
Change in grant applicable towards accrued interest payable (1,072)
Premium on 2016 bonds issued (2,626,731)
Deferred charge on refunding 131,780
Amortization of deferred charge on refunding (2,149)
Amortization of debt premiums/discounts 440,432 (2,260,909)
8. Accrued compensated absences, net OPEB obligations and net pension liability are not
payable with current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the
governmental funds.
Net compensated absences increase - December 31, 2016 (21,348)
Net OPEB obligation increase - December 31, 2016 (59,596)
Net pension liability increase - December 31, 2016 (19,931,044) (20,011,988)
9. Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities,
such as insurance, to individual funds. This amount represents a portion of the change
in net position of the internal service fund, which are reported in with governmental activities.(116,428)
10. Governmental funds do not report additions or deletions to certain long-term amounts related
to pensions that are included in the change in net position.
Deferred outflows - pension plan deferments 17,971,592
Deferred inflows - pension plan deferments (2,257,695)
Change in net position of governmental activities 18,534,796$
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are
different because:

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The City of Lakeville operates under the “Optional Plan A” form of government, according to applicable
State of Minnesota Statutes. The Statutes prescribe a Mayor-Council form of organization. The City
provides the following services: public safety, highways and streets, water and sanitary sewer, public
improvements, planning and zoning, culture-recreation, and general administration.
The basic financial statements of the City of Lakeville have been prepared in conformity with United States
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to government units. The Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental
accounting and financial reporting principles. The City’s more significant accounting policies are
described below.
A. Financial Reporting Entity of the City
The City of Lakeville is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor and a four-member council.
In accordance with GASB standards, these financial statements represent the City of Lakeville and its sole
component unit. The City includes all funds, organizations, agencies, departments, and offices that are not
legally separate from such. Component units are legally separate organizations for which the elected
officials of the City are financially accountable and are included within the basic financial statements of the
City based on the nature and the significance of their operational or financial relationships with the City.
Blended Component Unit
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) of Lakeville, Minnesota was created by the City to
provide housing and redevelopment assistance to its citizens. The HRA provides this assistance through
the administration of various programs. The HRA is governed by a five-member Board of Commissioners
comprised of the City of Lakeville Council in accordance with Minnesota Statutes 469.003, Subdivision 6.
Although it is legally separate from the City, the HRA is reported as if it were a part of the City (blended)
because the City Council is also the HRA governing board. The Commissioners’ terms of office coincide
with those of the City Council member. The City Administrator serves as the HRA Executive Director.
The operational responsibility for the HRA rests with management of the City.
During fiscal year 2006, the HRA issued $9,230,000 in Ice Arena Lease Revenue Bonds, Series 2006, to
finance the construction of the single sheet Hasse ice arena facility. The Ice Arena Lease Revenue Bonds,
Series 2006 were subsequently refunded in 2016. Debt service will be payable from equal lease payments
to be made by the City pursuant to the lease agreement between the HRA and the City, and in conjunction
with the joint powers agreement between the City and Independent School District No. 194.
These HRA bond obligations are combined and presented separately in the debt service funds as debt
supported by HRA lease revenue.
The HRA has not issued separate financial statements for the period ending December 31, 2016.
Information of a non-financial matter regarding the HRA can be obtained at the City’s Finance offices,
located at 20195 Holyoke Avenue, Lakeville, Minnesota 55044.

DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements
The basic financial statements include both government-wide and fund financial statements. The
government-wide financial statements focus on the City as a whole (consolidation of the City, excluding
fiduciary funds) while the fund financial statements focus on the major individual funds (reported as
separate columns within the fund financial statements). Separate financial statements are provided for
governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Both the government-wide and fund financial statements (within the basic financial statements) categorize
primary activities as either governmental or business-type. In the government-wide Statement of Net
Position, both the governmental and business-type activities columns (a) are presented on a consolidated
basis by column, and (b) are reflected, on a full accrual, economic resources measurement focus, which
incorporates long-term assets, receivables, deferred inflows and outflows of resources as well as long-term
debt and other obligations. The City generally first uses restricted assets for expenses incurred for which
both restricted and unrestricted assets are available. The City may defer the use of restricted assets based
on a review of the specific transaction.
The government-wide Statement of Activities reflects both the gross cost and the net cost per function
category (general government, public safety, public works, and parks and recreation) which are otherwise
being supported by both program and general revenues (charges for services, grants and contributions,
property taxes, etc.). The Statement of Activities reduces gross expenses (including depreciation) by the
related program revenues and operating/capital grants and contributions.
The program revenues must be directly associated with the function (general government, public safety,
public works, and parks and recreation) or a business-type activity. Program revenues are derived directly
from the program itself or from parties outside the City’s taxpayers or citizenry, as a whole. The City does
not allocate indirect expenses. The operating grants and contributions column includes operating-specific
and discretionary grants while the capital grants and contributions column includes capital specific grants
and contributions.
The governmental fund financial statements are presented using the current financial resources
measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. This is the manner in which these funds
are normally budgeted. Since the governmental fund statements are presented using a measurement focus
and basis of accounting different from that used in the government-wide statement’s governmental column,
a reconciliation is presented that briefly explains the adjustments necessary to reconcile ending net position
and the change in net position.
Both the City as a whole and the City’s major funds, including both governmental and enterprise funds, as
well as an agency fund, are presented utilizing the focus of the GASB Statement No. 34 reporting model.
Each presentation provides valuable information that can be analyzed and compared (between years and
between governments) to enhance the usefulness of the information.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements (continued)
In the fund financial statements, financial transactions and accounts of the City are organized on the basis
of funds. The operation of each fund is considered to be an independent fiscal and separate accounting
entity, with a self-balancing set of accounts recording cash and/or other financial resources together with all
related liabilities, deferred inflows and outflows of resources and residual equities or balances, and changes
therein, which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain
objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions, or limitations.
Major governmental funds – The City reports the following major governmental funds:
General fund – The general fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to
account for all financial resources except for those required to be accounted for in another
fund. This fund records revenues such as property taxes, licenses and permits,
intergovernmental revenues, charges for services, fines, and investment income. Most of
the current day-to-day operations of the City are financed from this fund.
Debt service general obligation fund – This fund accounts for those bond issues that
financed debt approved by voter referendum, equipment certificates of indebtedness, and
capital improvement bonds. Revenues are provided primarily from property taxes.
Debt service G.O. improvement fund – This fund accounts for those bond issues that
financed street, storm sewer, water, and sanitary sewer improvements. The special
assessments levied against benefited property owners are pledged toward the repayment of
the principal and interest on these bonds.
Capital projects building fund – This fund accounts for the accumulation and disbursement
of funds for the construction or improvement of public buildings.
Capital projects improvement construction fund – This fund accounts for complex
construction contracts that involve multiple financing resources from the City and other
government entities. Construction projects usually extend over several years before
completion.
Major proprietary funds – The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Enterprise liquor fund – This fund is used to account for the retail operations of three off-
sale liquor stores.
Enterprise utility fund – This fund is used to account for water, sanitary sewer, street
lighting, and environmental resources services provided to City customers.
Internal service fund – The internal service fund accounts for the City’s risk management
program relating to general liability, excess liability, property, and casualty insurance costs
which are charged to other departments of the City.

B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements (continued)
Other funds – The City reports the following other funds:
Agency fund – The agency fund is used to record the receipt and remittance of monies held
by the City as an agent primarily for land developers and builders that will be refunded to
the respective depositors when the conditions are satisfied in accordance with the respective
agreements.
C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The accounting and reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. Funds
are classified into three categories: Governmental, Proprietary, and Fiduciary. To provide an accurate cost
measurement of individual activities in the fund financial statement consolidation process, the City’s
interfund activity relating to services provided by and used between functions has been removed from these
statements; exceptions are for charges between the government’s liquor and utility function and other
functions of the government.
Governmental Funds:
Measurement focus: Governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial
resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and
current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Reported fund balance is
considered a measure of “available spendable resources.” Governmental fund operating
statements represent increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases
(i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
Basis of accounting: Governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when
they become measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction
can be determined and “available” means collectible within the current fiscal year or soon
enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current fiscal year. For this purpose the
City generally considers revenues to be available if collected within 60 days of year end or
if intergovernmental revenues related to a joint project venture with the county are
considered to be available if collected within 181 days of year end.
Revenues: Major revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes, excluding
delinquent taxes received over 60 days after current fiscal year-end; special assessments,
intergovernmental revenue, excluding intergovernmental revenues related to a joint project
venture with the county are considered revenue if collected within 181 days of after current
fiscal year-end; charges for services, investment income, and donations. Major revenues
that are not susceptible to accrual (i.e., license and permit revenues, and miscellaneous
revenues) are recorded when received because they are not measurable until collected.

CITY OF LAKEVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
C. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting (continued)
Expenditures: Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of
accounting when the related fund liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on
long-term debt, other post-employment benefits, pension benefits and compensated
absences which are recognized when due.
Proprietary and Fiduciary Funds:
Measurement focus: Proprietary funds and fiduciary funds (with the exception of agency
funds) are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. This means
that all assets, including capital assets, and all liabilities, including long-term liabilities, and
deferred inflows and outflows of resources associated with fund activity are included on the
Statement of Net Position. Proprietary fund types Statement of Revenues, Expenses and
Changes in Net Position present increases (i.e., revenues) and decreases (i.e., expenses) in
net total position.
Basis of accounting: Proprietary funds and fiduciary funds (including agency funds) are
accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned
and expenses are recorded at the time the liabilities are incurred. Unbilled utility service
receivables are recorded at current fiscal year-end.
Operating versus non-operating items: Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues
and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result
from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a
proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenue of the
City’s enterprise funds and internal service funds are charges to customers for sales and
services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the
cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All
revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues
and expenses.
D. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity
1. Cash and investments, and interest receivable
Cash balances from all funds are combined and invested to the extent available in certificates of
deposit, commercial paper, U.S. Government securities, and other securities authorized by State
Statutes. Earnings from such investments are allocated to the respective funds on the basis of
applicable cash balance participation by each fund.
2. Investments held by trustee
Cash and investments held by trustee represent in part the fair value of deposits that are required
to be held in trust for various City obligations. These established escrow accounts will remain in
effect until the terms and conditions of the obligations have been fulfilled. Earnings from such
investments are allocated directly to the respective funds in which the assets are held.

3. Taxes receivable
Property tax levies are set by the City Council in December each year and are certified to Dakota
County for collection in the following year. Such taxes become a receivable of the City and
become a lien on the respective property as of January 1. In Minnesota, most counties act as
collection agents for all property taxes. Dakota County spreads the levies over all taxable
property within the City of Lakeville. Real and personal property taxes are payable in equal
installments by property owners to Dakota County on May 15 and October 15 of each year.
Dakota County remits these and delinquent collections to the City twice a year, in January and
July. Unpaid taxes on December 31 are classified in the fund financial statements as delinquent
taxes receivable.
Taxes receivable include the following components:
Unremitted - amounts collected by Dakota County but not yet remitted to the City by December 31.
Delinquent - amounts billed to property owners but not paid.
4. Special assessments receivable
Special assessments are levied against the benefited properties for the assessable costs of special
assessment improvement projects in accordance with State Statutes. The City usually adopts the
assessment rolls when construction contracts will be awarded for the individual projects. The
City is obligated for the payment of special assessment debt not covered through the collection of
special assessments from property owners. Any obligation by the City would be paid by property
taxes. Special assessments are collectable over a term of years generally consistent with the term
of years of the related bond issue. Collection of annual special assessment installments
(including interest) is administered by Dakota County in the same manner as property taxes.
Property owners are allowed to prepay total future installments without interest or prepayment
penalties. As of December 31, 2016, the special assessment delinquent receivable was $10,378 in
the governmental funds and $23,900 in the proprietary enterprise utility fund. Special
assessments receivable includes the following components:
Unremitted - amounts collected by Dakota County but not yet remitted to the City by December 31.
Delinquent - amounts billed to property owners but not paid.
Deferred - assessment installments that will be billed to property owners in future years.
Other - assessments for which payment has been delayed based on State Statutes or City Council action.
5. Inventory
Inventories are valued on a first-in, first-out method. The cost of inventories is recorded as
expenses/expenditures when consumed rather than purchased except for, general fund inventory
related to snow removing chemicals. These materials are recorded as expenditure at the time of
purchase rather than when it is consumed.
6. Prepaid items
Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond the current year are
recorded as prepaid items. Prepaid items are also accounted for using the consumption method.

7. Unamortized bond premium and bond discount
In the governmental fund financial statements, bond premiums and discounts are recognized as
other financing sources and uses, respectively in the current fiscal year. Bond discounts and
bond premiums for the City’s government-wide financial statements are deferred and amortized
over the term of the bonds using the straight-line method. Unamortized bond premiums and
discounts are included within the non-current liabilities due in more than one year of the City’s
government-wide statement of net position.
The enterprise liquor fund includes a non-current liability for unamortized bond premium
associated with the issuance of the liquor revenue bonds of 2007. The bond premium is
amortized over the term of the bonds using the straight-line method.
The enterprise utility fund includes a non-current liability for unamortized bond premium
associated with the issuance of the water and sewer bonds of 2016. The bond premium is
amortized over the term of the bonds using the straight-line method.
8. Restricted assets (temporarily)
The government-wide Statement of Net Position “restricted assets (temporarily)” represents cash
and investments, and investments held by trustee that have imposed restrictions placed on them
by parties outside the government. These restricted amounts are pledged by bond covenants to
the repayment of City indebtedness. The assets are temporarily restricted until the terms and
conditions of the obligations have been fulfilled.
9. Capital assets
Capital assets, which include land, historical treasures, construction in process, buildings and
improvements, machinery and equipment, other improvements, and infrastructure, are reported in
the applicable governmental or business-type activity columns of the government-wide statement
of net position and proprietary funds statement of net position. Such assets are capitalized at
historical cost, or estimated historical cost for assets where actual historical cost is not available.
Donated assets are recorded as capital assets at their estimated fair value on the date of donation.
The City defines capital assets as those with an initial, individual cost of $5,000 or more with an
estimated useful life of not less than three years. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that
do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend the life of the asset are not capitalized.
Capital outlays are recorded as expenditures in the City’s governmental fund financial
statements, which use the modified accrual basis of accounting. Capital outlays that meet the
City’s capitalization criteria are reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and
proprietary funds statement of net position, both of which use the full accrual basis of accounting.
Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets for business-type activities is
included as part of the capitalization value of assets constructed.

9. Capital assets (continued)
Depreciation on the capital assets is recorded in the government-wide and proprietary fund
financial statements. Land, historical treasures, and construction in process are not depreciated.
Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives as
follows:
Buildings and improvements 50-75 years
Machinery and equipment 3-20 years
Other improvements 10-50 years
Infrastructure 20-50 years
10. Deferred outflows/inflows of resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section
for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents a
consumption of net position that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as an
outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then.
The City has three items that qualifies for reporting in this category. The first two items are the
deferred outflows of resources related to pensions reported in the government-wide and
proprietary fund statements of net position. This deferred outflow results from differences
between expected and actual experience, changes of assumptions, differences between projected
and actual earnings on pension plan investments, and contributions to the plan subsequent to the
measurement date and before the end of the reporting period. These amounts are deferred and
amortized as required under pension standards. The third item is a deferred outflow related to a
current refunding that resulted in a defeasance of debt reported by the governmental activities.
This deferred outflow results from the difference between the reacquisition price and the net
carrying amount of the old debt. This amount is deferred and amortized over the remaining life of
the debt.
In addition to liabilities, statements of financial position or balance sheets will sometimes report a
separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element
represents an acquisition of net position that applies to future periods and so will not be
recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time.
The City has two items which qualify for reporting in this category. The first item, unavailable
revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds Balance Sheet. The governmental funds
report unavailable revenue from two sources: property taxes and special assessments. These
amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period the amounts become
available. The second item, deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, is reported in the
government-wide and proprietary fund statements of net position. This deferred inflow results
from differences between expected and actual experience, changes of assumptions, and the
difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan investments. These amounts
are deferred and amortized as required under pension standards.

11. Compensated absences
It is the City’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused leave benefits as
either paid time off (PTO), or vacation and sick leave. Under the City’s personnel policies and
collective bargaining contracts, City employees are granted leave benefits in varying amounts
based on length of service. PTO accruals vary from 18 to 30 days per year, vacation accruals
vary from 10 to 20 days per year and sick leave accrues at a rate of 12 days per year.
As benefits accrue to employees, the accumulated PTO, vacation and vested sick leave is
reported as an expense and liability in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial
statements. Accrued PTO, vacation and a percentage of sick leave is paid to employees upon
termination (severance) only if they have vested and is reported as an expenditure in the
governmental fund that will pay for it. No liability is recorded for non-vesting accumulating
rights to receive sick leave benefits.
12. Net pension asset/net pension liability
For purposes of measuring the net pension asset/liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources,
and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Public Employees
Retirement Association (PERA) and the Lakeville Fire Relief Association and the applicable
pension additions to/deductions from the pension plan’s fiduciary net position have been
determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plan except that the PERA pension
plan’s fiscal year end is June 30. For this purpose, plan contributions are recognized as of
employer payroll paid dates and benefit payments and refunds are recognized when due and
payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
13. Net other post-employment benefits (OPEB) obligation
In accordance with the provisions of GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting and financial
Reporting by Employers for Post-employment Benefits Other Than Pensions, an actuarial
valuation is required to be computed and reported for the City’s post-employment health
insurance benefits provided to eligible employees through the City’s Other Post-Employment
Benefits Plan. OPEB is reported as an expense on a pay-as-you-go basis and is accrued as it is
earned. The net OPEB obligation liability and corresponding expense for governmental activities
is reported within the government-wide financial statements. The net OPEB obligation liability
and corresponding expense for enterprise funds are recorded within those funds.
14. Long-term obligations
Long-term obligations are recorded in the City’s government-wide and proprietary fund
statements of net position when they become a liability of the City. Long-term obligations are
recognized as a liability of a governmental fund only when due or when payment is made to the
paying agent.

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
D. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position or Equity (continued)
15. Net Position Classifications
In the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements, net position represents the
difference between assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of
resources. Net position is displayed in three components:
Net Investment in Capital Assets – Consists of capital assets, net of accumulated
depreciation reduced by any outstanding debt attributable to acquire capital assets.
Restricted Net Position – Consists of net position restricted when there are
limitations imposed on their use through external restrictions imposed by creditors,
grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments.
Unrestricted Net Position – All other elements of net position that do not meet the
definition of “restricted” or “net investment in capital assets.”
16. Fund balance classifications
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund reports fund balance in classifications that
disclose constraints for which amounts in those funds can be spent. These classifications are as
follows:
Nonspendable – Consists of amounts that are not in spendable form, such as prepaid
items, inventory, and other long-term assets.
Restricted – Consists of amounts related to externally imposed constraints
established by creditors, grantors, or contributors; or constraints imposed by state
statutory provisions.
Committed – Consists of 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 Council is the highest level of decision-making authority for the
government that can, by adoption of a resolution prior to the end of the fiscal year,
commit fund balance. Once adopted, the limitation imposed by the resolution
remains in place until a similar action is taken (the adoption of another resolution) to
remove or revise the limitation.
Assigned – Consists of internally imposed constraints. These constraints consist of
amounts intended to be used by the City for specific purposes but do not meet the
criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Pursuant to City resolution, the
City Administrator and the Finance Director are authorized to establish assignments
of fund balance.
Unassigned – The residual classification for the General Fund, which also reflects
negative residual amounts in the other funds.
The City will endeavor to maintain an unrestricted (committed, assigned and unassigned) fund
balance in the General fund of an amount not less than 40 and not greater than 50 percent of the
next year’s budgeted expenditures of the General fund. This will assist in maintaining an adequate
level of fund balance to provide for cash flow requirements and contingency needs. At December
31, 2016, the unrestricted fund balance of the General Fund was 52.1 percent of the subsequent
year’s budgeted expenditures. The City has opted to reduce fund balance with the 2017 budget.

16. Fund balance classifications (continued)
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to first
use restricted resources, and then use unrestricted resources as they are needed.
When committed, assigned or unassigned resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to
use resources in the following order; 1.) committed, 2.) assigned, and 3.) unassigned.
E. Revenue, Expenditures and Expenses
1. In the governmental fund financial statements property tax revenue is recognized when it
becomes measurable and available to finance expenditures of the current fiscal year. All
delinquent taxes receivable are fully offset by deferred inflow of resources in the governmental
fund financial statements. Taxes due from Dakota County on December 31 are included in
revenue since they are remitted to the City within 60 days after December 31. In the
government-wide Statement of Activities property tax revenue is recognized when levied.
2. In the governmental fund financial statements special assessments principal and interest are
recognized as revenue when they become measurable and available to finance expenditures of the
current fiscal year. All delinquent and deferred assessments receivable are fully offset by
deferred inflow of resources in the fund financial statements. Both the principal and interest on
special assessments are payable in installments over a term of years that matches the scheduled
payments for the bond issue which financed the project. In the government-wide Statement of
Activities special assessments revenue is recognized when levied.
3. Investment income is recorded as revenue in the year earned. Elements of investment income
include interest earned on investments and unrealized gains or losses on net increases or
decreases in the fair value of investments.
4. Certain grants and aids received by the City require that eligible expenditures be made in order to
earn the grant. Revenue for these grants is recorded in the period of which eligible expenditures
are made.
5. Enterprise utility fund service charges are recognized when earned with no allowance for
uncollectibles because delinquent accounts deemed uncollectible during the normal billing
process are certified to Dakota County as a property tax lien. Quarterly utility service charges
provided to customers but unbilled are included as receivables as of December 31.
6. Interfund service transactions are accounted for as expenditures or expenses. Service transaction
payments to a fund are recorded as an expenditure or expense in the paying fund and conversely
recorded as a reduction of expenditure or expense in the fund that is receiving payment.
Interfund service transactions within the respective categories of governmental activities and
business-type activities in the government-wide Statement of Activities are eliminated.

F. Cash Flows
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the City considers all highly liquid debt instruments with an
original maturity from the time of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The proprietary
funds’ equity in the government-wide cash and investments management pool is considered to be a cash
equivalent.
G. Change in Accounting Principle
For General Fund inventories related to snow removing chemicals the City has switched accounting
method from consumption method to the purchases method in 2016. This will enable the City to reduce the
impact of weather volatility on the annual street department budget. In all other cases inventory is valued
using the consumption method.
Note 2 – Cash and Investments
A. Components of Cash and Investments
The City’s cash surpluses are pooled and invested in accordance with State Statute and City investment
policy. Investment earnings and unrealized gains and losses are allocated to funds on the basis of average
cash balances. Investments are stated at fair value, which is the amount that a financial instrument could be
exchanged for in a current transaction between willing parties. The investments are not identified with
specific funds with the exception for bond proceeds related to bond series 2015 A, 2016 A and 2016 B.
Investments held by trustee include balances held in segregated accounts for specific purposes. Interest
earned on these trustee accounts is allocated directly to the responsible fund. The amounts represent funds
held as required by the debt obligation covenants and other agreements.
The City’s cash and investments as of December 31, 2016 consist of the following:
Cash on hand 13,165$
Deposits (233,214)
Investments 96,001,687
Total cash and investments 95,781,638$
The City’s cash and investments as of December 31, 2016 are presented in the financial statements as

B. Deposits
In accordance with applicable Minnesota Statutes, the City is permitted to maintain deposits at depository
banks authorized by the City Council, including checking accounts, savings accounts, and non-negotiable
certificates of deposits. The City’s deposit policy does not limit depository choices. The following is
considered the most significant risk associated with deposits:
Custodial Credit Risk – In the case of deposits, this is the risk that in the event of a bank failure,
the City’s deposits may be lost.
Minnesota Statutes require that all deposits be protected by federal deposit insurance, corporate
surety bond, or collateral. The market value of collateral pledged must equal 110 percent of the
deposits not covered by federal deposit insurance or corporate surety bonds. Authorized collateral
includes treasury bills, notes, and bonds; issues of U.S. government agencies; general obligations
rated “A” or better; revenue obligations rated “AA” or better; irrevocable standard letters of credit
issued by the Federal Home Loan Bank; and certificates of deposit. Minnesota Statutes require
that securities pledged as collateral be held in safekeeping in a restricted account at the Federal
Reserve Bank or in an account at a trust department of a commercial bank or other financial
institution that is not owned or controlled by the financial institution furnishing the collateral. The
City does not have a formal policy addressing this risk.
At year-end, the carrying amount of the City’s deposits was $(233,214) while the balance on the
bank records was $1,485,677. The City does not have any custodial credit risk for its deposits
since all City deposits held in safekeeping by the City's banks are fully protected by insurance
and/or collateral as required by Minnesota Statutes and authorized by the City Council.

The 4M Fund is regulated by Minnesota Statutes and the Board of Directors of the League of Minnesota
Cities and is an external investment pool not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) that follows the same regulatory rules of the SEC under rule 2a7. The City’s investment in the 4M
Fund is measured at an amortized cost method that approximates fair value. The City’s investment policy
does not place any further limitations beyond the state statute requirements for the risk categories described
below. Investments are subject to various risks, the following of which are considered the most significant;
Custodial Credit Risk – For investments, this is the risk that in the event of a failure of the
counterparty to an investment transaction (typically a broker-dealer) the City would not be able to
recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside
party. The City does not have any custodial credit risk for its investments since all of the City’s
investments held in safekeeping by the City's brokerage firm in the City's name are insured and
registered.

Note 2 – Cash and Investments (continued)
C. Investments (continued)
Credit Risk – This is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill
its obligations. State Statutes authorize investments in money market funds, certificates of
deposit, commercial paper, U.S. treasury securities, U.S. government agencies, and other
securities provided they meet the two highest quality ratings of nationally recognized rating
organizations.
Concentration Risk – This is the risk associated with investing a significant portion of the City’s
investments (considered 5 percent or more) in the securities of a single issuer, excluding U.S.
guaranteed investments (such as treasuries), investment pools, and mutual funds.
As of December 31, 2016, the City’s investment portfolio includes the following securities of
single issuers exceeding 5 percent:
Federal National Mortgage Association 8.3%
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation 7.2%
Federal Farm Credit Bank 6.9%
Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation 7.2%
Interest Rate Risk – This is the risk of potential variability in the fair value of fixed rate
investments resulting from changes in interest rates (the longer the period for which an interest
rate is fixed, the greater the risk).
D. Investment Policy
The City’s investment policy limits exposure to interest rate risk by investing in shorter term securities
(maturing in one year or less) to meet current operating cash requirements. Longer term investments are to
be purchased with the intent to match maturity periods with future funding needs for capital replacement
and debt obligations. The City will not purchase investments that, at the time of investment, cannot be held
to maturity. This does not mean that an investment cannot be sold prior to maturity.
Investment activity will focus upon protection of taxpayer dollars and investment income, consistent with
statutory authorization and financial prudence. The City will conduct its investment transactions with
several legal competing, reputable investment security dealers and qualifying banks. The City will invest
only in the following instruments or those others that may subsequently be permitted by State Statute.
United States Treasury obligations
Federal Agency Securities
Certificates of Deposit
Commercial Paper
Banker’s Acceptance
Money Market Funds
State and local securities

E. Fair Value Measurements
The City uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain asset and liabilities and to
determine fair value disclosures.
The City follows an accounting standard which defines fair value, establishes framework for measuring fair
value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the quality of inputs used to measure fair value, and
requires expanded disclosures about fair value measurements. In accordance with this standard, the City
has categorized its investments, based on the priority of inputs to the valuation technique, into a three-level
fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quotes and prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3).
If inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the
categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the
instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities recorded on the combined statements of financial position are categorized
based on the inputs to the valuation techniques as follows:
Level 1 – Financial assets and liabilities are valued using inputs that are unadjusted quoted prices
in active markets accessible at the measurement date of identical financial assets and liabilities.
Level 2 – Financial assets and liabilities are valued based on quoted prices for similar assets or
inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term through
corroboration with observable market data.
Level 3 – Financial assets and liabilities are valued using pricing inputs which are unobservable
for the asset, inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions
market participants would use in pricing the asset.

Note 14 – Joint Powers Debt Commitment
On August 25, 2005 the City of Lakeville entered into a joint powers agreement with the Cities of Apple
Valley, Burnsville, Eagan, Farmington, Hastings, Inver Grove Heights, Mendota Heights, Rosemount,
South St. Paul, West St. Paul, Minnesota, and Dakota County Minnesota, to establish the Dakota
Communications Center (DCC), a Minnesota nonprofit corporation. The purpose of the DCC is to engage
in the operation and maintenance of a countywide public safety answering point and communications
center for law enforcement, fire, emergency medical services, and other public safety services for the
mutual benefit of residents residing in the above mentioned cities and county (members). Pursuant to the

Note 15 – Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Plan
A. Plan Description
The City provides post-employment insurance benefits to certain eligible employees through the City’s
Other Post-Employment Benefits Plan, a single-employer defined benefit plan administered by the City.
All post-employment benefits are based on contractual agreements with employee groups. These
contractual agreements do not include any specific contribution or funding requirements. These benefits
are summarized as follows:
Post-Employment Insurance Benefits - All retirees of the City have the option under state law to continue
their medical insurance coverage through the City from the time of retirement until the employee reaches
the age of eligibility for Medicare. For members of all employee groups, the retiree must pay the full
premium to continue coverage for medical and dental insurance.
The City is legally required to include any retirees for whom it provides health insurance coverage in the
same insurance pool as its active employees, whether the premiums are paid by the City or the retiree.
Consequently, participating retirees are considered to receive a secondary benefit known as an “implicit
rate subsidy.”
86
CITY OF LAKEVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 15 – Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued)
A. Plan Description (continued)
This benefit relates to the assumption that the retiree is receiving a more favorable premium rate than they
would otherwise be able to obtain if purchasing insurance on their own, due to being included in the same
pool with the City’s younger and statistically healthier active employees.
B. Funding Policy
The required contribution is based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements, with additional
amounts to pre-fund benefits as determined annually by the City.
C. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The City’s annual OPEB cost (expense) is calculated based on annual required contributions (ARC) of the
City, an amount determined on an actuarially determined basis in accordance with the parameters of GASB
Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to
cover normal costs each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a
period not to exceed 30 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 the changes in the City’s net OPEB obligation to the plan:
Annual required contribution 96,418$
Interest on net OPEB obligation 16,158
Adjustment to annual required contribution (24,217)
Annual OPEB cost (expense)88,359
Contributions made (18,245)
Increase in net OPEB obligation 70,114
Net OPEB obligation - beginning of year 403,941
Net OPEB obligation - end of year 474,055$
The City’s annual OPEB cost; the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan; and the net
OPEB obligation for the year are as follows:
Fiscal Annual Employer Annual OPEB Net OPEB
Year Ended OPEB Cost Contribution Cost Contributed Obligation
December 31, 2014 91,390$ 20,522$ 22.5% 334,895$
December 31, 2015 89,904$ 20,858$ 23.2% 403,941$
December 31, 2016 88,359$ 18,245$ 20.6% 474,055$
D. Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of January 1, 2014, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was zero percent funded. The
actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $728,270, and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in
an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $728,270.
87
CITY OF LAKEVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 15 – Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued)
D. Funded Status and Funding Progress (continued)
The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was $12,363,168, and the
ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 5.9 percent.
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and
assumptions about the probability 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 ARCs 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 immediately following the notes to the basic financial statements presents multi-year trend
information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to
the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
E. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as
understood by the employer and the 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 actuarial 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.
In the January 1, 2014 actuarial valuation, the projected unit credit actuarial cost method was used. The
actuarial assumptions included: a 4.0 percent investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses)
based on the City’s own investments; a 2014 annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7.5 percent, and reduced
by decrements of .25 percent to an ultimate rate of 5.0 percent after ten years for medical insurance. Both
rates included a 2.5% inflation assumption. The UAAL is being amortized on a level dollar basis over a
closed period. The remaining amortization periods at January 1, 2014 for the various amortization layers
ranged from 24 to 30 years.
Note 16 – Risk Financing and Related Insurance Issues
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets;
errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City purchased the following
insurance coverage through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT), a public entity risk
pool currently operating as a common risk management and insurance program for Minnesota cities:
general liability, excess liability, workers compensation, property, automobile, marine, crime, employee
dishonesty, boiler, petro fund, and open meeting law.
The City pays an annual premium to the LMCIT for its insurance coverage. The LMCIT is self-sustaining
through member premiums and will reinsure through commercial companies for claims in excess of
reserved amounts for each insured event. The LMCIT allows for the pool to make additional assessments
to make the pool self-sustaining. Current state statutes (Minnesota Statutes Subd. 466.04) provide limits of
liability for the City.

Note 16– Risk Financing and Related Insurance Issues (continued)
These limits are that the combination of defense expense and indemnification expense shall not exceed
$1,500,000 for any number of claims arising out of a single occurrence. The Minnesota statutory limit on
claims is $1,500,000 per occurrence. The City self-insures the risk of any potential judicial ruling in excess
of the statutory maximum. The City has never had a claim in excess of the statutory maximum.
There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage from the prior year and insurance
settlements have not exceeded coverage in the past three years.
Workers’ compensation premiums for 2016 and 2015 were $514,874 and $527,125, respectively. The City
is enrolled in the LMCIT workers compensation “regular” program. The LMCIT regular program provides
a fixed premium based on payroll and provides no claim risk to the City as a result of high claims
experience. The City’s workers’ compensation premiums are accounted for directly in the responsible
funds.
Note 17– Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Statewide
A. Plan Description
The City participates in the following cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plans
administered by the PERA. PERA’s defined benefit pension plans are established and administered in
accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 353 and 356. PERA’s defined benefit pension plans are tax
qualified plans under Section 401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
1. General Employees Retirement Fund (GERF)
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the City are covered by the General Employees
Retirement Fund (GERF). GERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic
Plan. Coordinated Plan members are covered by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not.
The Basic Plan was closed to new members in 1967. All new members must participate in the
Coordinated Plan.
2. Public Employees Police and Fire Fund (PEPFF)
The PEPFF, originally established for police officers and firefighters not covered by a local relief
association, now covers all police officers and firefighters hired since 1980. Effective July 1, 1999,
the PEPFF also covers police officers and firefighters belonging to local relief associations that
elected to merge with and transfer assets and administration to the PERA.
B. Benefits Provided
PERA provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Benefit provisions are established by state statute
and can only be modified by the State Legislature.
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. Increases are related to the funding ratio
of the plan. Members in plans that are at least 90 percent funded for two consecutive years are given
2.5 percent increases. Members in plans that have not exceeded 90 percent funded, or have fallen below
80 percent, are given 1 percent increases.

Note 17– Defined Benefit Pension Plans – Statewide (continued)
B. Benefits Provided (continued)
The benefit provisions stated in the following paragraphs of this section are current provisions and apply to
active plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving
them yet are bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
1. GERF Benefits
Benefits are based on a member’s highest average salary for any five successive years of
allowable service, age, and years of credit at termination of service. Two methods are used to
compute benefits for the PERA’s Coordinated and Basic Plan members. The retiring member
receives the higher of a step-rate benefit accrual formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula
(Method 2). Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2 percent of
average salary for each of the first 10 years of service and 2.7 percent for each remaining year.
The annuity accrual rate for a Coordinated Plan member is 1.2 percent of average salary for each
of the first 10 years and 1.7 percent for each remaining year. Under Method 2, the annuity accrual
rate is 2.7 percent of average salary for Basic Plan members and 1.7 percent for Coordinated Plan
members for each year of service. For members hired prior to July 1, 1989, a full annuity is
available when age plus years of service equal 90 and normal retirement age is 65. For members
hired on or after July 1, 1989, normal retirement age is the age for unreduced Social Security
benefits capped at 66.
2. PEPFF Benefits
Benefits for PEPFF members first hired after June 30, 2010, but before July 1, 2014, vest on a
prorated basis from 50 percent after five years up to 100 percent after 10 years of credited service.
Benefits for PEPFF members first hired after June 30, 2014, vest on a prorated basis from
50 percent after 10 years up to 100 percent after 20 years of credited service. The annuity accrual
rate is 3 percent of average salary for each year of service. For PEPFF members who were first
hired prior to July 1, 1989, a full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal at least
90.
C. Contributions
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions. Contribution rates
can only be modified by the State Legislature.
1. GERF Contributions
Coordinated Plan members were required to contribute 6.50 percent of their annual covered salary
in calendar year 2016. The City was required to contribute 7.50 percent for Coordinated Plan
members in calendar year 2016. The City’s contributions to the GERF for the year ended
December 31, 2016 were $741,919. The City’s contributions were equal to the required
contributions as set by state statute.

D. Pension Costs
1. GERF Pension Costs
At December 31, 2016, the City reported a liability of $12,536,514 for its proportionate share of
the GERF’s net pension liability. The City’s net pension liability reflected a reduction due to the
State of Minnesota’s contribution of $6 million to the fund in 2016. The State of Minnesota is
considered a non-employer contribution entity and the state’s contribution meets the definition of
a special funding situation. The State of Minnesota’s proportionate share of the net pension
liability associated with the City totaled $163,714. The net pension liability was measured as of
June 30, 2016, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was
determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The City’s proportion of the net pension
liability was based on the City’s contributions received by the PERA during the measurement
period for employer payroll paid dates from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016, relative to the
total employer contributions received from all of the PERA’s participating employers. At June 30,
2016, the City’s proportionate share was 0.1544 percent, which was an increase of 0.0004 percent
from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2015.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, the City recognized pension expense of $1,742,788 for its
proportionate share of the GERF’s pension expense. The City also recognized $48,820 for the year
ended December 31, 2016, as pension expense (and grant revenue) for its proportionate share of
the State of Minnesota’s on-behalf contribution to the GERF.
At December 31, 2016, the City reported its proportionate share of the GERF’s deferred outflows
of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

2. PEPFF Pension Costs
At December 31, 2016, the City reported a liability of $22,554,038 for its proportionate share of
the PEPFF’s net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2016, and
the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial
valuation as of that date. The City’s proportion of the net pension liability was based on the City’s
contributions received by the PERA during the measurement period for employer payroll paid
dates from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016, relative to the total employer contributions
received from all of the PERA’s participating employers. At June 30, 2016, the City’s proportion
was 0.562 percent, which was an increase of 0.030 percent from its proportion measured as of
June 30, 2015.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, the City recognized pension expense of $3,891,888 for its
proportionate share of the PEPFF’s pension expense. The City also recognized $50,580 for the
year ended December 31, 2016, as revenue and an offsetting reduction of the net pension liability
for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota’s on-behalf contributions to the PEPFF.
Legislation passed in 2013 required the State of Minnesota to begin contributing $9 million to the
PEPFF each year, starting in fiscal year 2014.
For the year ended December 31, 2016, the City recognized pension expense of $6,010,525 with
regards to all the pension plans in which it participates.

E. Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability in the June 30, 2016 actuarial valuation was determined using the following
actuarial assumptions:
Inflation 2.50% per year
Active member payroll growth 3.25% per year
Investment rate of return 7.50%
93
CITY OF LAKEVILLE, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 17– Defined Benefit Pension Plans – Statewide (continued)
E. Actuarial Assumptions (continued)
Salary increases were based on a service-related table. Mortality rates for active members, retirees, survivors, and
disabilitants were based on RP-2014 tables for the GERF and RP-2000 tables for PEPFF males or females, as
appropriate, with slight adjustments. Cost of living benefit increases for retirees are assumed to be: 1 percent
effective per year for all future years for the GERF and PEPFF.
Actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2016, valuation were based on the results of actuarial experience studies.
The most recent four-year experience study in the GERF was completed in 2015. The experience study for the
PEPPF was for the period July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2009.
The following changes in the actuarial assumptions occurred in 2016:
GERF
The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0 percent per year through
2035 and 2.5 percent per year thereafter to 1.0 percent per year for all future years.
The assumed investment rate of return was changed from 7.9 percent to 7.5 percent. The single
discount rate was changed from 7.9 percent to 7.5 percent.
Other assumptions were changed pursuant to the experience study dated June 30, 2015. The
assumed future salary increases, payroll growth, and inflation were decreased by 0.25 percent to
3.25 percent for payroll growth and 2.5 percent for inflation.
PEPFF
The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0 percent per year through
2037 and 2.5 percent per year thereafter to 1.0 percent per year for all future years.
The assumed investment rate of return was changed from 7.9 percent to 7.5 percent. The single
discount rate was changed from 7.9 percent to 5.6 percent.
The assumed future salary increases, payroll growth, and inflation were decreased by 0.25 percent
to 3.25 percent for payroll growth and 2.5 percent for inflation.
The State Board of Investment, which manages the investments of the PERA, prepares an analysis of the
reasonableness of the long-term expected rate of return on a regular basis using a building-block method in which
best-estimate ranges of expected future rates of return are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are
combined to produce an expected long-term rate of return by weighting the expected future rates of return by the
target asset allocation percentages. The target allocation and best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each
major asset class are summarized in the following table:
Asset Class
Target
Allocation
Long-Term Expected Real
Rate of Return
Domestic stocks 45%5.50%
International stocks 15%6.00%
Bonds 18%1.45%
Alternative assets 20%6.40%
Cash 2%0.50%
Total 100%
F. Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability in 2016 was 7.5 percent, a reduction from the 7.9
percent used in 2015. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions
from plan members and employers will be made at the rates set in Minnesota Statutes. Based on these assumptions,
each of the pension plan’s fiduciary net position of the GERF was projected to be available to make all projected
future benefit payments of current plan members.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 17– Defined Benefit Pension Plans – Statewide (continued)
F. Discount Rate (continued)
Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected
benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
The pension plan’s fiduciary net position of the PEPFF was projected to be available to make all projected future
benefit payments of current plan members through June 30, 2056. Beginning in fiscal year ended June 30, 2057 for
the PEPFF, when projected benefit payments exceed the fund’s projected fiduciary net position, benefit payments
were discounted at the municipal bond rate of 2.58 percent based on an index of 20-year general obligation bonds
with an average AA credit rating at the measurement date. An equivalent single discount rate of 5.6 percent for
PEPFF was determined that produced approximately the same present value of projected benefits when applied to
all years of projected benefits as the present value of projected benefits using 7.5 percent applied to all years of
projected benefits through the point of asset depletion and 2.85 percent after.
G. Pension Liability Sensitivity
The following presents the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability for all plans it participates in,
calculated using the discount rate disclosed in the preceding paragraph, as well as what the City’s proportionate
share of the net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate 1 percentage point lower or 1
percentage point higher than the current discount rate:

Detailed information about each pension plan’s fiduciary net position is available in a separately-issued PERA
financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. That report may be

Note 18 – Defined Contribution Plan – Statewide
Council members of the City are covered by the Public Employees Defined Contribution Plan (PEDCP), a multiple-
employer deferred compensation plan administered by the PERA. The PEDCP is a tax qualified plan under Section
401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code and all contributions by or on behalf of employees are tax deferred until time of
withdrawal.
Plan benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the plan plus investment earnings, less administrative
expenses. Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353D.03, specifies plan provisions, including the employee and employer
contribution rates for those qualified personnel who elect to participate. An eligible elected official who decides to
participate contributes 5 percent of salary which is matched by the elected official’s employer. For ambulance
service personnel, employer contributions are determined by the employer, and for salaried employee contributions
must be a fixed percentage of salary. Employer contributions for volunteer personnel may be a unit value for each
call or period of alert duty. Employees who are paid for their services may elect to make member contributions in an
amount not to exceed the employer share. Employer and employee contributions are combined and used to purchase
shares in one or more of the seven accounts of the Minnesota Supplemental Investment Fund. For administering the
plan, the PERA receives 2 percent of employer contributions and twenty-five hundredths of 1 percent (0.0025) of
the assets in each member’s account annually.

A. Plan Description
Volunteer firefighters of the City of Lakeville Fire Department (the Department) are members of the Lakeville Fire
Relief Association (the Association), which administers a single-employer defined benefit plan established to
provide benefits for its members. The plan is established and administered in accordance with Minnesota Statute,
Chapter 69 and 424, as amended. The Association is governed by a board of six members elected by the members
of the Association for three year terms. One City Council member, Finance Director and Fire Chief are ex officio,
nonvoting members of the Board of Trustees. As of December 31, 2016, the plan covered 77 active firefighters and
20 vested terminated firefighters whose pension benefits are deferred.
The Association maintains a separate Special Fund to accumulate assets to fund the retirement benefits earned by the
Department’s membership. Funding for the Association is derived from an insurance premium tax in accordance
with the Volunteer Firefighter’s Relief Association Financing Guidelines Act of 1971 (Chapter 261 as amended by
Chapter 509 of Minnesota Statutes 1980). Funds are also derived from investment income.
B. Benefits Provided
A firefighter who completes at least 20 years as an active member of the Department is entitled, after age 50, to a
full service pension upon retirement.
The bylaws of the Association also provide for an early vested service pension for a retiring member who has
completed fewer than 20 years of service. The reduced pension, available to members with 10 years of service, shall
be equal to 60 percent of the pension as described by the bylaws. This percentage increases 4 percent per year so
that at 20 years of service, the full amount prescribed is paid. Members who retire with less than 20 years of service
and have reached the age of 50 years and have completed at least 10 years of active membership are entitled to a
reduced service pension not to exceed the amount calculated by multiplying the member’s service pension for the
completed years of service times the applicable non-forfeitable percentage of pension.
C. Contributions
Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 424 and 424A authorize pension benefits for volunteer fire relief associations. The
plan is funded by fire state aid, investment earnings, and, if necessary, employer contributions as specified in
Minnesota Statutes and voluntary city contributions (if applicable). The firefighters have no obligation to contribute
to the plan. Nonemployer pension contributions include state aid from the state of Minnesota and municipal
contributions from the City. On-behalf of the state payments from the state of Minnesota are received initially by
the City and subsequently remitted to the Association. These on-behalf of the state aid payments in addition to the
City’s municipal contribution payments to the Association plan are recognized as revenues and expenditures in the
City’s General Fund during the period received.

E. Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability at December 31, 2016 was determined using the entry age normal actuarial cost method
and the following actuarial assumptions:
Retirement eligibility at 100 percent service pension at age 50 with 20 years of service, early
vested retirement at age 50 with 10 years of service vested at 60 percent and increased by
4 percent for each additional year of service up to 20 and eligibility for deferred service
pension payable at age 50 with 20 years of service
Inflation rate 2.75% per year
Investment rate of return 7.25%
20 year municipal bond yield 3.78%
The retirement assumption was updated from the July 1, 2014 Minnesota PERA Police and Fire Plan to 50 percent
at the later of age 50 and 20 years of service, then 50 percent at each subsequent year until 100 percent at the earlier
of age 65 or 30 years of service. This change was made to reflect updated expectations regarding future experience.
The 7.25 percent long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-
block method in which best estimates for expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of inflation) were
developed for each asset class using the plan’s target investment allocation along with long-term return expectations
by asset class. Inflation expectations were applied to derive the nominal rate of return for the portfolio.

The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25 percent. The projection of cash flows
used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions to the plan will be made as specified in
statute. Based on that assumption and considering the funding ratio of the plan, the fiduciary net position
was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive
members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all
periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2016
Note 20 – Deferred Compensation Plan
The City offers its employees an optional deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal
Revenue Service Code Section 457. The plan is available to all City employees, which permits them to tax
defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to employees
until termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency. Under provisions of Section 72(p) of the
Internal Revenue Code, a plan may permit participant loans once 457 plan assets are held in a trust. As of
the current fiscal year, the City’s plan does not have a loan provision for its participants. All amounts of
compensation deferred under the plan must be held in trust for the exclusive benefit of plan participants
and/or beneficiaries. Investments are managed by the plan's trustee under various investment options or a
combination thereof. The choice of investment options is made by the participant.
Note 21 – Litigation
There are several lawsuits pending in which the City is involved. The City Attorney has indicated that
existing and pending lawsuit claims and other actions in which the City is a defendant are either covered by
insurance, fully reserved for by the City, or the cases are in the early stages of discovery, and accordingly,
the ultimate outcome cannot presently be determined. It is the opinion of City management that in each
case the possibility of material loss, net of amounts reserved is remote.
Note 22 – Conduit Debt
On April 7, 2008, the Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) of Lakeville approved the issuance of
the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of Lakeville, Minnesota Education Facilities Revenue Note (All
Saints School Project), Series 2008. The HRA acted as the conduit for a bank qualified tax-exempt
refinancing of existing debt for All Saints School (the School) under the responsibility of All Saints Church
(the Church), a religious corporation organized as a nonprofit corporation under the laws of the State of
Minnesota. The note funds provided funding for the non-religious portions of the renovation and equipping
of, and construction of additions to the School (serving kindergarten through 8th grade), owned and
operated by the Church, and located at 19795 Holyoke Avenue in Lakeville.
The HRA authorized the $2,000,000 revenue note to provide needed financial assistance to a private-sector
entity deemed to be in the public interest. Neither the HRA nor the City is obligated in any circumstance
for repayment of this note, and accordingly the note is not reported as a liability in the accompanying
financial statements. As of December 31, 2016, $2,000,000 remains outstanding on this note.
Note 23 – Tax Abatement
The City has two pay-as-you go tax increment financing districts with local businesses to promote
economic development within the City. The City agrees pursuant to the authority granted in the TIF Act to
abate real estate taxes based on the increased property value from improvements on the owned property.
The agreements call for 95 percent of the property tax increments collected to be returned to the
developers. The City will retain 5 percent for administrative fees for the periods of time specified in each
agreement. For the year ended December 31, 2016, the City paid excess tax increment in the amount of
$49,753. No other commitments were made by the City as part of these agreements.

Note 24 – Subsequent Events
In January 2017, the City entered into a loan agreement with the Metropolitan Council for the purpose of
acquiring property within a proposed state trunk highway right-of-way. The Metropolitan Council
provided a loan to the City in an amount not to exceed $750,000 to finance the acquisition of the property.
The loan (free of interest charge) will be discharged by the Metropolitan Council upon the conveyance of
the property to the highway authority at an undetermined future date.

NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
DECEMBER 31, 2016
A. Budgetary Information
Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Annual
appropriated budgets are adopted for the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds. Budgeted amounts are
as originally adopted or as amended by the City Council. The City follows these procedures in establishing
the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:
1. The City Administrator submits a proposed operating budget to the City Council.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. Upon Council approval the budget is legally adopted and employs formal budgetary
integration during the year.
4. Expenditures may legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level through
City Council action.
5. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the level at which expenditures may not
legally exceed appropriations) is at the department level for the General Fund and
total expenditures for the Special Revenue Funds. The City Administrator has
authorization to expend funds in excess of the appropriation for individual line items.
6. Budget appropriations of all funds lapse at year-end to the extent they were not
encumbered. Encumbrances are re-appropriated in the following year's budget.

this is the most accurate and consistent representation of the resources restricted for debt service when crossover
refunding bonds are being held in escrow, as those resources are not included in the governmental activities net position
restricted for debt service due to conversion for full accrual accounting.

Total overlapping debt
Total direct and overlapping debt
The percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable property market values.
Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of the county’s taxable market
value that is within the City’s boundaries and dividing it by the county’s total taxable market value.
Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographical 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 the City. This process recognizes that,
when considering the government’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.

AUDIT SUMMARY
The following is a summary of our audit work, key conclusions, and other information that we consider
important or that is required to be communicated to the City Council, administration, or those charged
with governance of the City.
OUR RESPONSIBILITY UNDER AUDITING STANDARDS GENERALLY ACCEPTED IN THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA AND GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities,
each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements. Professional standards require
that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards, as well as certain
information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such
information to you verbally, in our Governance Communication Letter, and in our audit engagement letter.
Professional standards also require that we communicate the following information related to our audit.
PLANNED SCOPE AND TIMING OF THE AUDIT
We performed the audit according to the planned scope and timing previously discussed and coordinated
in order to obtain sufficient audit evidence and complete an effective audit.
AUDIT OPINION AND FINDINGS
Based on our audit of the City's financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2016:
We issued an unmodified opinion on the City's basic financial statements. Our report included a
paragraph emphasizing that the City changed its accounting policy related to the valuation of
certain General Fund inventories, specifically related to snow-removing chemicals, from the
consumption method to the purchase method, during the year ended December 31, 2016. Our
opinion was not modified with respect to this matter.
We reported no deficiencies in the City's internal control over financial reporting that we
considered to be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies.
The results of our testing disclosed no instances of noncompliance required to be reported under
Government Auditing Standards.
We reported no findings based on our testing of the City's compliance with Minnesota laws and
regulations.
Overall, we found the City’s financial records to be in excellent condition. This not only provides for an
efficient year-end audit, but should also provide confidence in the interim financial data used to manage
the City throughout the year.
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS OVERVIEW
This section of the report provides you with an overview of the financial trends and activities of the City’s
governmental funds, which include the General, special revenue, debt service, and capital project funds.
These funds are used to account for the basic services the City provides to all of its citizens, which are
financed primarily with property taxes. The governmental fund information in the City’s financial
statements focuses on budgetary compliance, and the sufficiency of each governmental fund’s current
assets to finance its current liabilities.
PROPERTY TAXES
Minnesota cities rely heavily on local property tax levies to support their governmental fund activities. For
the 2015 fiscal year, local ad valorem property tax levies provided 39.7 percent of the total governmental
fund revenues for cities over 2,500 in population, and 35.5 percent for cities under 2,500 in population.
Property tax levies certified by Minnesota cities for 2016 increased about 5.5 percent over 2015,
compared to an increase of 4.0 percent the prior year. Levy limits were not in place for 2015 or 2016.
The total market value of property in Minnesota cities increased about 5.7 percent for the 2016 levy year,
following an increase of 8.5 percent for levy year 2015, a slight increase 1.1 percent for 2014 and a four-
year trend of declining market values for levy years 2010 through 2013. Market values showed increases
across all property categories for 2016, with gains in the market values of residential homestead
properties (5.0 percent) and non-homestead residential properties (9.1 percent) outpacing the market
value gain of commercial/industrial properties (4.9 percent). Because the assessed valuation used for
levying property taxes is based on values from the previous fiscal year (e.g., the market value for taxes
payable in 2016 is based on estimated values as of January 1, 2015), market value improvement has
lagged behind recent upturns in the housing market and the economy in general.
The City’s taxable market value increased 11.2 percent for taxes payable in 2015 and 4.9 percent for
taxes payable in 2016. The following graph shows the City’s changes in taxable market value over the
past 11 years:

Taxable Market Value
Tax capacity is considered the actual base available for taxation. It is calculated by applying the state’s
property classification system to each property’s market value. Each property classification, such as
commercial or residential, has a different calculation and uses different rates. Consequently, a city’s total
tax capacity will change at a different rate than its total market value, as tax capacity is affected by the
proportion of the City’s tax base that is in each property classification from year-to-year, as well as
legislative changes to tax rates and exemptions. The City’s tax capacity increased 9.9 percent and 4.5
percent for taxes payable in 2015 and 2016, respectively.

Both the total tax rate applied to Lakeville taxpayers and the City’s tax rate have been well below both
the state-wide and metro averages in recent years. The City’s tax rate for 2016 was lower than the
previous year, despite a 3.8 percent increase in the City’s certified tax levy, due to the improvement in
tax capacity as discussed above.
The school tax rate for the City represents an average of Independent School District (ISD) No. 192,
Farmington; ISD No. 194, Lakeville; and ISD No. 196, Rosemount – Apple Valley – Eagan.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND BALANCES
The following table summarizes the changes in the fund balances of the City’s governmental funds during
the year ended December 31, 2016, presented both by fund balance classification and by fund:
In total, the fund balances of the City’s governmental funds increased $11,468,908 during the year ended
December 31, 2016.
The majority of the increase was in committed and unassigned fund balances, which increased $3.7
million and $3.8 million, respectively, from the prior year. The increase in the committed balance was
primarily related to the collection of water trunk fees in the water capital projects fund in addition with the
fund starting in a negative position after 2015, the issuance of $8 million of bonds, the fund was able to
recover the deficit and make the fund whole again. This was partially offset by a $2.2 million decrease in
the committed fund balance of the Equipment Fund resulting from capital expenditures in excess of
revenues.
The increase in unassigned fund balance was also partially due to the increase in the Water Capital
Project fund balance as it had a negative $3.1 million fund balance in the prior year which is required to
be shown as unassigned. The General Fund also had a $1 million increase in unassigned fund balance
as a result of revenues in excess of expenditures.

GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS REVENUE AND EXPENDITURES
The following table presents the per capita revenue of the City’s governmental funds for the past three
years, along with state-wide averages.
We have included the most recent comparative state-wide averages available from the Office of the State
Auditor to provide a benchmark for interpreting the City’s data. The amounts received from the typical
major sources of governmental fund revenue will naturally vary between cities based on factors such as
the City’s stage of development, location, size and density of its population, property values, services it
provides, and other attributes. It will also differ from year-to-year due to the effect of inflation and changes
in the City’s operation. Also, certain data on these tables may be classified differently than how they
appear on the City’s financial statements in order to be more comparable to the state-wide information,
particularly in separating capital expenditures from current expenditures.
We have designed this section of our management report using per capita data in order to better identify
unique or unusual trends and activities of your city. We intend for this type of comparative and trend
information to complement, rather than duplicate, information in the Management’s Discussion and
Analysis. An inherent difficulty in presenting per capita information is the accuracy of the population count,
which for most years is based on estimates.
The City’s governmental funds have typically generated less revenue per capita in total than other
Minnesota cities in its population class.
Total governmental funds revenues were $56.6 million in 2016, about $6.8 million (13.7 percent) more
than the prior year. On a per capita basis, governmental fund revenue for 2016 was $99 higher than the
prior year. Property tax revenue was $7 per capita higher than the previous year due to a levy increase
and excess tax increment distribution. Licenses and permits revenue was $6 per capita higher than last
year due to increased development activity. Intergovernmental revenues were $61 per capita higher than
last year due to an increase in municipal state-aid revenue for several large capital projects. Charges for
services were also $22 per capita higher than last year due to increased development activity, resulting
in additional connection and area charges, park dedication fees, and engineering charges. Revenue in
the “other” category shown above decreased $2 per capita.

Governmental Funds Revenue per Capita
With State‐Wide Averages by Population Class
Below is a table of the City of Lakeville’s 2016 governmental funds revenue per capita as compared to
the average per capita revenues for the governmental funds of several comparable cities for the year
2015. The comparable cities included in the average below (and in any other instances of a comparable
city average included in this report) are Apple Valley, Blaine, Bloomington, Chanhassen, Eagan, Eden
Prairie, Inver Grove Heights, Maple Grove, Plymouth, Prior Lake, Savage, Shakopee, and Woodbury.
The expenditures of governmental funds will also vary from state-wide averages and from year-to-year,
based on the City’s circumstances. Expenditures are classified into three types as follows:
Current – These are typically the general operating type expenditures occurring on an annual
basis, and are primarily funded by general sources such as taxes and intergovernmental
revenues.
Capital Outlay – These expenditures do not occur on a consistent basis, more typically
fluctuating significantly from year-to-year. Many of these expenditures are project-oriented, and
are often funded by specific sources that have benefited from the expenditure, such as special
assessment improvement projects.
Debt Service – Although the expenditures for debt service may be relatively consistent over the
term of the respective debt, the funding source is the important factor. Some debt may be repaid
through specific sources such as special assessments or redevelopment funding, while other debt
may be repaid with general property taxes.
The City’s expenditures per capita of its governmental funds for the past three years, together with state-
wide averages, are presented in the following table:
Total expenditures in the City’s governmental funds for 2016 were $73.2 million, an increase of $6.9
million (10.4 percent) from the previous year, or $95 per capita. The increase was mainly in capital outlay,
which was $94 per capita higher than the previous year, primarily due to several large street and utility
improvement projects. Scheduled debt service principal and interest costs were also $18 lower per capita
than the prior year.

GENERAL FUND
The City’s General Fund accounts for the financial activity of the basic services provided to the
community. The primary services included within this fund are the administration of the municipal
operation, police and fire protection, building inspection, streets and highway maintenance, and parks
and recreation. The graph below illustrates the change in the General Fund financial position over the
last five years. We have also included a line representing annual expenditures to reflect the change in
the size of the General Fund operation over the same period.
The City’s General Fund cash and investments balance at December 31, 2016 was $14,610,871, an
increase of $2,544,514. Total fund balance at December 31, 2016 was $15,076,500, which is an increase
of $2,393,104 from the prior year, and $2,650,167 higher than projected in the City’s final budget.
As the graph illustrates, the City has generally been able to maintain healthy cash and fund balance
levels as the volume of financial activity has grown. This is an important factor because a government,
like any organization, requires a certain amount of equity to operate. A healthy financial position allows
the City to avoid volatility in tax rates; helps minimize the impact of state funding changes; allows for the
adequate and consistent funding of services, repairs, and unexpected costs; and is a factor in determining
the City’s bond rating and resulting interest costs. Maintaining an adequate fund balance has become
increasingly important given the fluctuations in state funding for cities in recent years.
A trend that is typical to Minnesota local governments, especially the General Fund of cities, is the
unusual cash flow experienced throughout the year. The City’s General Fund cash disbursements are
made fairly evenly during the year other than the impact of seasonal services such as snowplowing,
street maintenance, and park activities. Cash receipts of the General Fund are quite a different story.
Taxes comprise about 69 percent of the fund’s total annual revenue. Approximately half of these
revenues are received by the City in July and the rest in December. Consequently, the City needs to
have adequate cash reserves to finance its everyday operations between these payments.
The City’s General Fund’s unrestricted fund balance at the end of the 2016 fiscal year represents
approximately 58.8 percent of annual expenditures based on 2016 levels, compared to 51.3 percent at
the end of the previous year.
The following graph reflects the City’s General Fund revenue sources for 2016 compared to budget:
General Fund revenue for 2016 was $26,632,181, which was $1,562,088 (6.2 percent) more than budget.
Charges for services were $356,306 over budget, mostly due to engineering fees charged to construction
projects. Licenses and permits revenue was over budget by $1,102,522, primarily due to the number of
residential building and construction related permits issued.
The following graph presents the City’s General Fund revenues by source for the last five years. The
graph reflects the City’s reliance on property taxes and other local sources of revenue.
Overall, General Fund revenues increased $1,259,064 (5.0 percent) from the previous year. Property tax
revenue was $620,760 more than last year due to a 3.85 percent increase in the property tax levy.
Intergovernmental revenue increased $41,933 due to county grants received. Revenue from charges for
services (up $171,932) and licenses and permits (up $352,177) were both higher than last year due to
increased development activity. Finally, revenue in the “all other” category as shown above was $72,262
higher than last year, mainly due to an increase in revenue from fines and forfeitures and fluctuation in
interest returns.
The following graph illustrates the components of General Fund spending for 2016 compared to budget:
Total General Fund expenditures for 2016 were $24,450,590, which was $1,088,079 (4.3 percent) under
the final budget. General Fund expenditures were under budget in every functional area, as shown in the
graph above. General government expenditures were $165,356 under budget, with the largest savings
in finance, human resources, information systems, and legal counsel. Public safety expenditures were
$33,677 under budget, primarily in police other charges and services. Public works expenditures were
$565,312 under budget, mainly in operations and maintenance and street maintenance personnel and
commodities costs. Parks and recreation costs were under budget by $203,963, mainly in park personnel,
maintenance charges and services.
The following graph presents the City’s General Fund expenditures by function for the last five years:
Total General Fund expenditures for 2016 were $1,182,697 (5.1 percent) higher than the previous year,
with the increase spread across all program areas with the exception of parks and recreation which
decreased slightly ($52,699). The majority of the increase was in personnel costs, which were due to
contractual wage increases, inflationary benefit cost increases, and the addition of about seven full-time
employees compared to the prior year.
ENTERPRISE FUNDS OVERVIEW
The City maintains two enterprise funds to account for services the City provides that are financed
primarily through fees charged to those utilizing the service. This section of the report provides you with
an overview of the financial trends and activities of the City’s enterprise funds, which include the (water,
sewer, street light, and environmental resources) Utility Fund and Liquor Fund.
ENTERPRISE FUNDS FINANCIAL POSITION
The following table summarizes the changes in the financial position of the City’s enterprise funds during
the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015, presented both by classification and by fund:
In total, the net position of the City’s enterprise funds increased by $14,185,269 during the year ended
December 31, 2016. The Liquor Fund net position decreased by $193,451, due mostly to transfers of
almost $1.1 million to governmental funds to provide funding for debt service requirements, various
capital projects, and general overhead costs. The increases in both the net investment in capital assets
and the net position of the Utility Enterprise Fund were primarily due to capital infrastructure contributions
of $17.9 million received from developers, other government agencies, and the City’s governmental
funds.

LIQUOR FUND
The following graphs present five years of operating results for the Liquor Fund:
The Liquor Fund ended 2016 with a net position of $3,942,455, a decrease of $193,451 from current year
operations. Of this, $3,433,113 represents net investment in capital assets and $323,875 is restricted in
accordance with revenue bond covenants, leaving $185,467 of unrestricted net position.
Gross liquor sales for 2016 were $14,130,830, an increase of $519,536 (3.8 percent) from 2015. The
Liquor Fund generated a gross profit of $3,464,143 in 2016, or about 24.5 percent, of gross sales.
Operating expenses for 2016 were $2,453,328, an increase of $95,079 (4.0 percent) from the prior year.
Net operating income for 2016 was $1,010,815, or about 7.2 percent, of gross sales. The increase in
gross sales and the resulting increase in the two operating ratios shown below were primarily attributable
stabilization during 2016 as the City has faced significant increases to competition in previous years. The
Liquor Fund also made transfers out of $1,074,318 to support the General Fund, for debt service, and for
various capital needs.
UTILITY FUND
The following graph presents five years of comparative operating results for the City’s (water, sewer,
street light, and environmental resources) Utility Fund:
The Utility Fund ended 2016 with net position of $135,052,446, an increase of $14,378,720 from current
year operations. Of the net position balance, $125,652,977 represents the City’s net investment in utility
capital assets, leaving $9,399,469 of unrestricted net position.
Utility Fund operating revenue was $10,692,185 for 2016, an increase of $79,655 (16.0 percent), mainly
due to increase in water usage and sewer discharge coupled with increase in rates.
Operating expenses (including depreciation of $3,847,385) were $12,581,506, which represents an
increase of $700,053 (5.9 percent). The increase was primarily attributable to increases in personnel
costs and purchased services related to maintenance and depreciation.
The Utility Fund also received capital contributions of $17,879,600 in 2016 from developers, other
governmental agencies, and the City’s governmental funds.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In addition to fund-based information, the current reporting model for governmental entities also requires
the inclusion of two government-wide financial statements designed to present a clear picture of the City
as a single, unified entity. These government-wide financial statements provide information on the total
cost of delivering services, including capital assets and long-term liabilities.
STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
The Statement of Net Position essentially tells you what your city owns and owes at a given point in time,
the last day of the fiscal year. Theoretically, net position represents the resources the City has leftover to
use for providing services after its debts are settled. However, those resources are not always in
spendable form, or there may be restrictions on how some of those resources can be used. Therefore,
net position is divided into three components: net investment in capital assets, restricted, and
unrestricted.
The following table presents the components of City’s net position as of December 31, 2016 and 2015,
for governmental activities and business-type activities:
The total net position of the City increased $32.7 million during the 2016 fiscal year. Of the increase,
$18.5 million came from governmental activities and $14.2 million from business-type activities. One of
the primary reasons for the increases in both the governmental and business-type activities was the
amount of infrastructure contributed by developers and others during 2016, which totaled about $37.5
million.
The increase in governmental activities restricted net position was the result of several factors, including
an increase in special assessments restricted for future debt service; capital grants (contributions);
increases in charges for services and other resources restricted for future capital improvements.

STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The Statement of Activities tracks the City’s yearly revenues and expenses, as well as any other
transactions that increase or reduce total net position. These amounts represent the full cost of providing
services. The Statement of Activities provides a more comprehensive measure than just the amount of
cash that changed hands, as reflected in the fund-based financial statements. This statement includes
the cost of supplies used, depreciation of long-lived capital assets, and other accrual-based expenses.
The following table presents the change in the net position of the City for the years ended December 31,
2016 and 2015:
One of the goals of this statement is to provide a side-by-side comparison to illustrate the difference in
the way the City’s governmental and business-type operations are financed. The table clearly illustrates
the dependence of the City’s governmental operations on general revenues such as property taxes and
unrestricted grants, while its business-type activities are financed predominately through program
revenues.
The difference in public works is mainly the result of increased capital contributions, utility connection
charges and special assessments of $10.9 million during 2016.

LEGISLATIVE UPDATES
Despite the 2017 legislative session ending with a projected budget excess of $743 million for the 2016–
2017 biennium and projected surplus of $1.65 billion for the 2018-2019 biennium, the most favorable
budget forecast in over a decade, some progress was made but not everything was accomplished that
the Governor and Legislators were hoping to complete.
The following is a summary of recent legislation affecting Minnesota cities in 2016 and into the future:
Local Government Aid (LGA) – The Legislature completely overhauled the LGA formula for
fiscal year 2014 and thereafter, creating a three-tiered formula that includes separate “need
factor” calculations for cities with populations under 2,500, between 2,500 and 10,000, or over
10,000. The new formula simplified the LGA calculation, and reduced the volatility of the LGA
distribution by limiting the amount it may decline in a given year. Beginning in 2015, any reduction
to a city’s calculated LGA distribution will be limited to the lesser of $10 per capita, or 5 percent
of their previous year net tax levy. For cities that gain under the new formula, the increases will
be distributed proportionate to their unmet need, as determined by the new “need factor”
calculations. The state-wide LGA appropriation was $516.9 million for fiscal 2016 and 2017, and
is $534.4 million for fiscal 2018 and thereafter. The $15 million increase in LGA for fiscal year
2018 is a permanent increase which was approved by the omnibus tax bill signed by Governor
Dayton. The omnibus tax bill also corrected a formula error affecting 20 cities.
Sales Tax Exemption – Cities (both home-rule and statutory) were exempted from paying sales
tax on qualifying purchases, effective for purchases made on or after January 1, 2014. Purchases
of goods or services by an exempt local government for a publicly-provided liquor store, gas or
electric utility, golf course, marina, campground, café, laundromat, solid waste hauling or recycling
operation, or landfill will remain taxable.
The 2014 Legislature extended the definition of tax exempt local government to include all special
district; city, county, or township instrumentalities; economic development authorities; housing
and redevelopment authorities; and all joint power boards or organizations. However, the effective
date of this expanded exemption list was delayed until January 1, 2017 by the 2015 Legislature.
Sunday Liquor Sales – Starting Sunday July 2, 2017 Minnesota liquor are now able to allow of-
sale intoxicating liquor sales on Sundays. In preparation for this cities should be reviewing liquor
ordinances to ensure the change in State Statutes do not contradict city ordinances. Some city
ordinances specifically restrict sales on Sundays. To remain compliance with city ordinances and
State Statutes, this should be reviewed and amended as necessary.
Omnibus Bonding Bill – The Legislature approved a Omnibus Bonding Bill during the special
session, authorizing approximately $851 million in capital improvements. This includes $136
million in waste water, drinking water, and storm water infrastructure improvements; $116 million
in spending for local roads; $49 million in bridge projects; and $71 million in rail safety projects.
REAL ID Bill – The REAL ID Bill was also passed during the most recent session. This creates
three options for driver’s license. These include the REAL ID which will meet all federal
requirements to allow access to federal buildings and airports; the standard license as it is
currently established; and the enhanced ID that is also currently an option. Options 1 and 2 will
be the same price for individuals. Under the Bill’s passage it provided a compliance exemption to
2020.
Small Cities Assistance Account – A one-time appropriation of $12.5 million was provided to
create a new Small Cities Assistance Account to assist with construction and maintenance of
roads located within eligible cities, defined as a statutory or home-rule charter city that does not
receive municipal state aid street financing (generally those with a population under 5,000). The
aid will be distributed to eligible cities biannually in each year funds are available based on the
following formula: 5 percent equally to all eligible cities; 35 percent allocated proportionately on
each city’s share of lane miles to the total for all eligible cities; 35 percent allocated proportionately
on each city’s population to the total for all eligible cities; and 25 percent allocated proportionately
on each city’s state-aid adjustment factor to the total for all eligible cities.
Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) Policy – Law enforcement agencies that utilize
ALPRs are required to establish policies governing their use that are consistent with statutory
guidelines. The Legislature placed limitations on the type of data that can be collected using
ALPRs, and clarified the circumstances under which that data is considered public or private. A
limitation of 60 days was established for the retention of data collected by ALPR not related to an
active criminal investigation. Standards were established for the sharing of ALPR data between
law enforcement agencies. Independent audits will be required starting after August 1, 2017.
Elections – The Elections Omnibus Bill made numerous changes to elections administration
laws, including timeline clarification for entities that switch from odd to even election years;
changes to requirements for canvasing primary results; establish uniform special election dates,
requirements to establish polling places by December 31st each year for the subsequent year by
resolution; disclosure of election judge party affiliations; and allows political parties to provide a
list of election judges willing to travel outside of their jurisdiction.
Charitable Gambling – Changes to the State’s charitable gambling laws will now require cities
and counties who have a 10 percent contribution requirement to acknowledge the organization
contributing the money. This can be completed at the time of receipt or when the funds are
disbursed.
Omnibus Tax Bill – The Omnibus Tax Bill included the provisions to increase LGA funding by
$15 million and fix the LGA formula error. IT also adjusted income limits for entities with affordable
housing tax increment financing districts. The Bill also gave authorization to municipalities for
workforce housing tax increment financing districts. Not included in this Bill was the exemption
to exclude construction materials from sales tax requirements for local governments.
Proposed Ordinance Notification – The State amended Chapter 77 to require cities to provide
at least 10 days notice for most proposed ordinances. New ordinances and amendments to
existing ordinances are affected. Notification must be completed as follows: via e-mail if a city
has an electronic notification system in place; post the ordinance in a public location; and update
the city’s website if ordinances are posted to a city’s website.
Pensions – Governor Dayton vetoed the pension bill that was sent to his desk. This Bill would
have focused on the Police and Fire Fund sustainability.
ACCOUNTING AND AUDITING UPDATES
GASB Statement No. 74, “Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefit Plans Other Than
Pension Plans” – the objective of this statement is to improve the usefulness of information about
postemployment benefits other than pensions (other postemployment benefits or OPEB) included in the
general purpose external financial reports of state and local governmental OPEB plans for making
decisions and assessing accountability. The provisions of Statement No 74 are effective for fiscal periods
beginning after June 15, 2016.
GASB Statement No. 75, “Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits
Other Than Pensions” – the objective of this statement is to improve accounting and financial reporting
by state and local governments for postemployment benefits other than pensions (other postemployment
benefits or OPEB). The provisions of Statement No. 75 are effective for fiscal periods beginning after

the transparency and decision-usefulness of general purpose external financial reports, and their value
for assessing accountability, by more clearly identifying resources that are available to a government.
The provisions of Statement No. 79 are effective for periods beginning after December 15, 2016 and
should be applied retroactively.
GASB Statement No. 82, “Pension Issues, an amendment of GASB Statements No. 67, No. 68, and

Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Lakeville
Lakeville, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities,
each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Lakeville as of and for the
year ended December 31, 2016, and have issued our report thereon dated June 5, 2017. We have
previously communicated to you information about our responsibilities under auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America and Government Auditing Standards, as well as
certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. Professional standards also
require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit.
Significant audit findings
Qualitative aspects of accounting practices
Accounting policies
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant
accounting policies used by City of Lakeville are described in Note 1 to the financial statements.
As described in Note 1, the entity changed accounting policies related to inventory by changing from
the consumption method to the purchases method for general fund inventory related to snow removing
chemicals. Also as described in Note 1, the City changed its timeline for considering revenue related to
construction projects that are in conjunction with the County as available from 60 days to 181 days (six
months).
We noted no transactions entered into by the entity 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
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:
Management’s estimate of the valuation of investments is based on published market values as
of December 31, 2016. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the
value of investments in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements
taken as a whole.
Management’s estimate of the depreciation expense on capital assets is based on
management’s estimated useful lives of those assets. We evaluated the key factors and
assumptions used to develop the allowance in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Lakeville
Page 2
Management’s estimate of City’s liability for other postemployment benefits is based on an
actuarial determined liability which is based on various assumptions, including investment rates
of return, health care trend rates, mortality rates, etc. We evaluated the key factors and
assumptions used to develop the liability in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.
Management’s estimate of the City’s liability for compensated absences is based on employee
wage information and the City’s policies of earning vacation and sick pay. We evaluated the key
factors and assumptions used to develop the liability in determining that it is reasonable in
relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Management’s estimate of the City’s proportionate share of PERA’s GERF and PEPFF net
pension liabilities as well as the related deferred inflows and outflows is based on guidance from
GASB Statement No. 68, GASB Statement No. 71, and the plans’ allocation tables. The plans’
allocation tables allocate a portion of the plans’ net pension liabilities based on the City’s
contributions during the plans’ fiscal years as a percentage of total contributions received for the
related fiscal year by the plans. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop
the liability in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a
whole.
Management’s estimate of the City’s net pension asset and related deferred inflows and
outflows related to the City’s Fire Relief Association are based on an actuarially determined
liability. This liability is based on various assumptions including the investments rate of return,
projected salary increases, and mortality rates. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions
used to develop the liability in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial
statements taken as a whole.
Financial statement disclosures
Certain financial statement disclosures are particularly sensitive because of their significance to
financial statement users. There were no particularly sensitive financial statement disclosures.
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.
Uncorrected misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all misstatements identified during the audit, other
than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. We
noted one uncorrected misstatement which involved passing on recording a $50,580 revenue and
corresponding expenditure in the General Fund for the State’s contribution to the PEPFF pension plan
on behalf of the City. As this amount is not known until after fiscal year-end, there is no net effect on
ending fund balance, and the adjustment can make the budget to actual results confusing to users of
the financial statements, management has chosen to pass on recording it. Management has
determined that its effect is immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate, to the financial
statements taken as a whole.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Lakeville

Corrected misstatements
Management did not identify and we did not notify them of any financial statement misstatements
detected as a result of audit procedures.
Disagreements with management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or
auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial
statements or the auditors’ report. No such disagreements arose during our audit.
Management representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management
representation letter dated June 5, 2017.
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 entity’s financial statements or a determination of
the type of auditors’ 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.
Significant issues discussed with management prior to engagement
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management each year prior to engagement as the entity’s auditors. However,
these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses
were not a condition to our engagement.
Other audit findings or issues
We have provided a separate letter to you dated June 5, 2017, communicating internal control related
matters identified during the audit.
Other information in documents containing audited financial statements
With respect to the required supplementary information (RSI) accompanying the financial statements,
we made certain inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the RSI, including whether
the RSI has been measured and presented in accordance with prescribed guidelines, whether the
methods of measurement and preparation have been changed from the prior period and the reasons
for any such changes, and whether there were any significant assumptions or interpretations underlying
the measurement or presentation of the RSI. We compared the RSI for consistency with management’s
responses to the foregoing inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge obtained
during the audit of the basic financial statements. Because these limited procedures do not provide
sufficient evidence, we did not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Lakeville

With respect to the combining and individual fund financial statements and additional debt schedules
(collectively, the supplementary information) accompanying the financial statements, on which we were
engaged to report in relation to the financial statements as a whole, 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 or the reasons for such
changes, 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 have
issued our report thereon dated June 5, 2017.
The introductory and statistical sections accompanying the financial statements, which is the
responsibility of management, was prepared for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the financial statements. Such information was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audit of the financial statements, and, accordingly, we did not express an opinion or provide any

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Lakeville
Lakeville, Minnesota
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental
activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information
of City of Lakeville, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2016, and the related notes to the
financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of Lakeville’s basic financial statements, and
have issued our report thereon dated June 5, 2017.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of Lakeville’s
internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial
statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of
Lakeville’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City
of Lakeville’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or
detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a
timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control
that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged
with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this
section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any
deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material
weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
Honorable Mayor and City Council

Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Lakeville‘s financial statements
are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of
laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and
material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on
compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express
such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that
are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and
compliance and the result 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Lakeville
Lakeville, Minnesota
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 the City of Lakeville, Minnesota as of and for the year then ended December 31, 2016, and the
related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial
statements, and have issued our report thereon dated June 5, 2017.
The Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Cities promulgated by the State Auditor pursuant to
Minnesota Statute § 6.65 contains seven categories of compliance to be tested: contracting and
bidding, deposits and investments, conflicts of interest, public indebtedness, claims and disbursements,
miscellaneous provisions, and tax increment financing. Our audit considered all of the listed categories.
In connection with our audit, nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe that the City of
Lakeville, Minnesota failed to comply with the provisions of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit
Guide for Cities. However, our audit was not directed primarily toward obtaining knowledge of such
noncompliance. Accordingly, had we performed additional procedures, other matters may have come to
our attention regarding the City of Lakeville, Minnesota’s noncompliance with the above-referenced
provisions.
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of compliance relating to the
provisions of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Cities and the results of that testing, and
not to provide an opinion on compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other
purpose.
