BACKGROUND
<br /> Annually staff presents the year-end financial report (Report) to Council for approval.
<br /> The Report summarizes the actual results of the financial activities for the fiscal year
<br /> and details changes in reserves and recommended budget amendments or
<br /> adjustments. The City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is still in
<br /> progress; therefore, the financial information included in this Report is based on
<br /> unaudited figures. The audited information will be presented to City Council in the CAFR
<br /> once the City's independent auditor has issued its opinion and the CAFR has been
<br /> reviewed by the Audit Committee. All of this is expected to occur in January 2018. Any
<br /> changes to the information presented in this Report as a result of the audit will be
<br /> brought to Council's attention at the time the audit is presented to Council for
<br /> acceptance in January or February of 2018.
<br /> DISCUSSION
