To the Honorable Mayor, Village Council and Village Manager
Village of Tequesta
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business -type
activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Village of Tequesta
(the Village) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. Professional standards require that we
provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing
standards and Government Auditing Standards, as well as certain information related to the
planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to
you dated November 12, 2018. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you
the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The
significant accounting policies used by the Village are described in Note 1 to the financial
statements. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Village adopted Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial reporting for
Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. Accordingly, the cumulative effective of the
accounting change as of the beginning of the fiscal year is presented in Note 3P to the financial
statements. We noted no transactions entered into by the Village during the year for which there
is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized
in the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and
are based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and
assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because
of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events
affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimate affecting
the Village's financial statements was:
Management's estimate of the net pension liability (asset) in accordance with GASB
Statement No. 68 and the total OPEB liability in accordance with GASB Statement
75 are based on actuarial methods and assumptions used by the actuaries for the
development of the funding valuations as well as the accounting valuations. The
key factors impacting the assumptions, such as change in market conditions, are
subject to change on an annual basis therefore and can have a significant impact on
this estimate. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the
estimate described above, in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.

Certain financial statement disclosures are particularly sensitive because of their significance to
financial statement users. There were no sensitive financial statements disclosures.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our
audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified
during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate
level of management. We noted no such misstatements.
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. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements
arose during the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management
representation letter dated March 29, 2019.
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 Village'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.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as Village's auditors. However,
these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses
were not a condition to our retention.

Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to Management's Discussion and Analysis, Budgetary
Comparison Schedules, Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios,
Schedule of Contributions, Schedule of Investment Returns; Schedules of Village's Proportionate
Share of the Net Pension Liability for FRS and HIS; and Schedule of Changes in the Total OPEB
Liability and related ratios, which are required supplementary information (RSI) that supplements
the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding the
methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with
management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we
obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We did not audit the RSI and do not
express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
We were engaged to report on the combining and individual fund financial statements and
schedules, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this
supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form,
content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing
it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation
to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary
information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the
financial statements themselves.
We were not engaged to report on the introductory and statistical sections, which accompany the
financial statements but are not RSI. We did not audit or perform other procedures on this other
information and we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.
Restriction on Use
This information is intended solely for the use of the Honorable Mayor and Village Council and
management of the Village of Tequesta and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by
anyone other than these specified parties.

Florida law requires that every general purpose local government publish, within nine months of the close of each
fiscal year, a complete set of audited financial statements. This report is published to fulfill that requirement for
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018.
Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this
report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that it has established for this purpose. Because
the cost of internal control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather
than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Marcum LLP, Certified Public Accountants, have issued an unmodified ("clean") opinion on the Village of
Tequesta's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018. The independent auditors' report is
located at the front of the financial section of this report.
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 THE VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA
The Village of Tequesta, Florida (the Village) is a municipal corporation organized June 4, 1957 pursuant to
Special Act 57-1915, Laws of Florida. It is approximately 2 square miles and is located in northern Palm Beach
County, Florida. It is almost completely built-out/developed.
The Village's growth potential is restricted by the natural boundaries of the Atlantic Ocean to the east, the
Loxahatchee River to the west, the Town of Jupiter to the south and Martin County to the north. It is empowered
by state statute to extend its corporate limits by annexation, which it has done from time to time.
The Village has a Council -Manager form of government. Policy -making and legislative authority are vested in
an elected governing body of the Village consisting of a five -member Village Council. Council members are
elected at large and select a Mayor at their first organizational meeting each year. Council members serve two-
year terms, with three members elected every other year. The Village Council appoints the Village of Tequesta's
manager, who is responsible for hiring all Village employees.
The Village provides a full range of services, including police and fire protection; building inspections; licenses
and permits; the construction and maintenance of streets and other infrastructure, recreational and cultural
activities, water services, storm water operations and contracts for residential refuse and recycling services.
The Council is required to adopt an initial budget prior to the beginning of the fiscal year October 1. This annual
budget serves as the foundation for the Village of Tequesta's financial planning and control. The budget is
prepared by fund, function (e.g., public safety), and department (e.g., police) and is adopted by fund total.
Departments may transfer resources within a department with the approval of the budget officer and the Village
Manager. Transfers between departments require budget amendments be approved by the Village Council, while
changes to the total fund budget requires approval of the Village Council by resolution.
Local Economy
The Village, located in Palm Beach County, is the third most populous county in the State of Florida
(approximately 1.47 million). The latest population estimate prepared by the Bureau of Economic and Business
Research, University of Florida indicates that current population of the Village of Tequesta is 5,857. Tequesta is
home to middle to upper -income suburban families; has a small commercial area and no major industries located
within its boundaries. It is home to a number of assisted living facilities, private schools and a high -end treatment
center.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, over the past year, 48 states, including
Florida, had job growth from a year earlier. The national unemployment rate for September 2018 was 3.9% with
the unemployment rate in Florida at 3.3%. The unemployment rate for Palm Beach County at the fiscal year end
was 3.1%. According to analysis by Office of Economic and Demographic Research, "The job market in Florida
continues to grow at steady rates, with a 3.4% growth rate for nonfarm employment for the third quarter of 2018
compared to the same period last year." The Florida Economic Estimating Conference expects 3% growth in
Fiscal Year 2018-19, with the more modest growth throughout the long run, indicating economic growth.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the median household income for Tequesta was $56,644, which continues
to be significantly higher than Florida as a whole ($50,883). Housing market continues to trudge forward, although
slowing from the stronger growth over the past few years. Tequesta continues to see a positive increase of property
values, which is another indicator of a growing economy. Per the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser's Office,
gross taxable value for calculating ad valorem proceeds increased from $1.002 billion during fiscal year 2017 to
$1.061 billion used to calculate 2018 revenues. Based upon these indicators, the Village is developing its operating
budget with the expectation that the economy will continue to improve and that there will be an increase in
property values over the next few years.
Long -Term Financial Planning and Major Initiatives
The continued goal of the Village is to maintain a consistently high quality of services to the residents, while
protecting the assets, the level of service and the quality of life that the residents have come to expect. It is the
result of hard work by the Village staff, and fiscally sound, responsible decisions by the Village Council that
allows the Village to meet service demands while minimizing the financial burden on its residents. The Village is
very fortunate to have a citizenry that is active on many boards and committees, a working staff that has shown
its willingness to take on additional responsibilities, an expanded workload and very importantly, a Village
Council that is very responsive to the needs of the residents and staff and who donate so much of their time to this
community.
The Village's primary focus is providing exceptional municipal services to its residents in the most efficient and
cost effected manner possible. Continued economic challenges require innovative approaches on both sides of the
balance sheet. Efforts to expand contractual services to generate additional revenue should continue to be
considered.
11
The Village continues researching ways to control the growing cost of health care and post -retirement benefits
and has implemented changes and negotiated concessions with the current bargaining units. The Village continues
to discuss options with the three collective bargaining units to control the cost of post -retirement benefits.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
• Continue to explore alternative revenue sources, at both the state and federal level, with the
assistance of grant writers and other professional consultant services.
• Continue to explore ways to reduce the cost of health care and retirement costs.
• Implement a 5-year capital improvement /capital replacement plan.
• To keep on track with maintenance and improvements outlined in a utility revenue sufficiency and
rate adequacy study to meet the Village's objectives for a sustained high quality utility service by
providing a stable funding plan.
• To develop a long-range plan for the replacement of the aging water distribution system.
• Upgrading the Water Treatment Plant with new instrumentation, technology and chemical tanks.
• Develop plans and specifications for the construction of the new Community Center.
• Implement automatic meter reading technology for the Village's Water Utility.
• Major investments are being made to protect municipal data through Information Technology
Department.
AWARDS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in
Financial Reporting to the Village for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2017. This was the thirty-fifth consecutive year that the Village has received this prestigious award.
The Village must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This
report satisfied both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year. We believe that our current comprehensive annual
financial report will continue to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program's requirements and we are
submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
The preparation of this report would not have been possible without the efficient and dedicated services of the
entire staff of the Village's finance department. We would like to express our appreciation to all members of the
department who assisted and contributed to the preparation of this report.
In closing, we must also acknowledge the Mayor and Council for their unfailing support for maintaining the
highest standards of professionalism in the management of the Village's finances.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor, Village Council and Village Manager
Village of Tequesta, Florida
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business -type activities, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
Village of Tequesta, Florida (the Village), as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30,
2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Village'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 Village'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 Village's internal
control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the
appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a
basis for our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business -type activities, each
major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Village, as of September 30,
2018, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof
for the fiscal year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management's discussion and analysis on pages 4 through 18, the Budgetary Comparison
schedule, the Schedules of Changes in the Net Pension Liability and Related Ratios, the
Schedules of Employer Contributions, the Schedule of Investment returns, and the Schedule of
Changes in Total OPEB Liability and Related Ratios on pages 97 through 112 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.
Supplementary and Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the Village's basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund
statements and schedules, the introductory and statistical sections are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
2
The combining and individual fund statements and schedules are the responsibility of
management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other
records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain
additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the
underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the
basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, based on
our audit and the procedures performed as described above, the combining and individual fund
statements and schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic
financial statements as a whole.
The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an
opinion or provide any assurance on it.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
March 29, 2019 on our consideration of the Village's internal control over financial reporting
and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and
grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of
our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that
testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Village's internal control over
financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in
accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Village's internal control
over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(MD&A)
Management's Discussion and Analysis 2018
Village of Tequesta, Florida
Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the Village of Tequesta, we offer readers of the Village's financial statements this
narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the Village for the fiscal year ended September
30, 2018. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the additional
information that we have furnished in the letter of transmittal found on pages i to iii of this report.
Financial Highlights
• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the Village of Tequesta exceeded its liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $33,019,058. Of total net
position, 24.1% ($7,950,171) is unrestricted and may be used to meet the ongoing obligations to the
citizens and creditors.
• The Village of Tequesta's total net position increased during the current period. Governmental
activities changed net position by $517,529. The business -type activities net position increased by
$838,575 due mainly to the increase in water usage.
• At the close of the current fiscal year, the Village of Tequesta's governmental funds reported a
change in combined fund balances of $(516,563).
• At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance (the total of the committed, assigned,
and unassigned components of fund balance) reported in the general fund was $2,150,229.
• The Village of Tequesta's total outstanding noncurrent liabilities decreased $(1,129,295) due mainly
to current year principal payments.
• The Village did not expend $750,000 or more in federal awards or state financial assistance in the
fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 and therefore did not meet the threshold for a single audit
according to the Florida Single Audit Act (section 215.97 F.S.) or OMB Uniform Guidance.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the Village of Tequesta's basic
financial statements. The Village's basic financial statements consist of three components: 1)
government -wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements.
This report also includes supplementary information intended to furnish additional detail to support 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 Village of Tequesta's finances, in a manner similar to a private -sector
business.
The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the Village of Tequesta's assets,
liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows 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 Village of Tequesta is improving or deteriorating.
Management's Discussion and Analysis 2018
The statement of activities presents information showing how the Village of Tequesta'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 cashflows. Thus, revenues and expenses
are reported in this statement for some items that will 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 Village of Tequesta 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 Village includes general government, public
safety, transportation and leisure services. The business -type activities of the Village includes water,
stormwater and refuse and recycling.
The government -wide financial statements can be found on pages 19-20 of this report.
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 Village of Tequesta, 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 Village of Tequesta 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 ou flows 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 assessing 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 Village of Tequesta maintains four 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 balance for the General Fund which is considered a major fund. Data from the other
three governmental funds is combined into a single aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of
these non -major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the combining and
individual fund statements and schedules section of this report.
The Village of Tequesta adopts an annual appropriated budget for its governmental funds. A budgetary
comparison statement has been provided for the general fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The Village of Tequesta's governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 21-24 of this report.
Proprietary Funds. The Village of Tequesta maintains one type of proprietary fund — enterprise funds.
Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business -type activities in the
government -wide financial statements. The Village of Tequesta uses enterprise funds to account for its
water, stormwater, and refuse and recycling funds.
Management's Discussion and Analysis 2018
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government -wide financial statements, only in
more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the Water fund and
the Stormwater Fund, major funds, as well as the Refuse and Recycling fund, a nonmajor fund.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 25-27 of this report.
Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the
Village. Fiduciary funds are not reported in the government -wide financial statement because the resources
of those funds are not available to support the Village's own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary
funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
The Village of Tequesta maintains one type of fiduciary fund — a Pension trust fund which is used to report
resources held in trust for retirees and beneficiaries covered by the Public Safety Pension Plan (which
includes the Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund and the Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund) and the General
Employees ' Pension Plan.
The fiduciary fund financial statements can be found on pages 28-29 of this report.
Notes to basic financial statements: The notes provide additional information that is necessary to acquire a
full understanding of the data provided in the government -wide and fund financial statements. The notes to
the basic financial statements can be found on pages 30-96 of this report.
Other information: In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also
presents certain required supplementary information concerning the Village of Tequesta's progress in
funding its obligation to provide pension benefits and OPEB benefits to its employees, as well as the
Village's net pension liability (assets) and related ratios, contributions and pension investment returns.
Required supplementary information can be found on pages 97-112 of this report.
The combining and individual fund statements and schedules referred to earlier in connection with non -major
governmental funds and fiduciary funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary
information on pensions and OPEB. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found
on pages 113-121 of this report.

The largest portion of the Village's total net position (71.0%) represents investments in capital assets (e.g.,
land, buildings, machinery and equipment), less any related outstanding debt and deferred inflows/outflows
used to acquire those assets. The Village uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens;
consequently, they are not available for future spending. Although the Village's investment in its capital
assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be
provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
An additional portion of the Village of Tequesta's net position (4.9%) represents resources that are subject to
external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of $7,950,171 is unrestricted and may
be used to meet the government's ongoing obligations to its citizens and creditors.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the Village of Tequesta is able to report positive balances in all
categories of net position, both for the government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and
business -type activities. The same situation held true for the prior fiscal year.

Financial Analysis of the Village's Funds
As noted earlier, the Village of Tequesta uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with
finance -related legal requirements.
Governmental funds: The focus of the Village's governmental funds is to provide information on near -term
inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Village's
financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a
government's net resources available for discretionary use as they represent the portion of fund balance
which has not yet been limited to use for a particular purpose by either an external party, the Village of
Tequesta itself, or a group or individual that has been delegated authority to assign resources for use for
particular purposes by the Village of Tequesta's Council.
At September 30, 2018 the Village of Tequesta's governmental funds reported total combined fund balances
of $4,225,340. $1,150,229 (27%) of the combined governmental fund balances is unassigned and is available
for spending at the Village's discretion. Approximately 29% is assigned with the largest portion ($1 million)
assigned for hurricane/disaster emergency. Approximately $1.6 million is restricted for a particular purpose
(i.e. debt service, Law Enforcement Trust funds, etc.). $224,994 is in nonspendable form (i.e. inventories,
prepaid items, etc.). Total combined fund balances have decreased 10.89% from the prior year.

The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the Village of Tequesta. At the end of the current fiscal year
total fund balance was $3,882,111, a decrease of $463,785 from the prior year. Unassigned fund balance of
$1,150,229, decreased 22% from the prior year. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be

Management's Discussion and Analysis 2018
useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures.
Unassigned fund balance represents approximately 9% of fiscal year 2018 General Fund expenditures and
total fund balance represents approximately 32% of total expenditures. The Village of Tequesta adopted a
policy to keep unassigned fund balance at a minimum of two months (16%) of expenditures.

Total General fund expenditures increased from the prior year 6.5%. The increase in capital outlay $261,656
was mainly due to capital projects funded and reported in the capital projects fund rather than the general
fund. The decreases were offset by increases in expenditures in the functions of. general government, public
safety, transportation and leisure services. The cost of debt decreased 4.8% from the prior year due to
principal payments offset by capital leases entered into during the year. Below is a graphic presentation of
how the Village expends funds and how they compare to the prior period.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
Noncurrent liabilities: At the end of the current fiscal year, the Village had a total of $8,713,574 of
noncurrent liabilities. The largest portion are debt instruments in the form of promissory notes with Bank of
America that are secured by general revenue sources. The table below summarizes the Village's debt
position.
In implementing GASB No. 68 and GASB No.75, the Village recognized a net pension liability (NPL) of
$1,854,727 and a total OPEB liability $623,600. The Village is presenting the NPL and OPEB liability as
separate components of the noncurrent liabilities on the face of the financial statements to present more
clearly the Village's long-term pension obligations. A more detailed explanation can be found in Note 3.K —
Noncurrent Liabilities starting on page 91.

Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates
The following economic factors currently affect the Village of Tequesta and were considered in developing
the 2018-2019 fiscal year budgets.
• The Village Council's decision to hold the millage rate at 6.292 as the Village expects property values
to rise.
• There has been a positive move in the housing market, new home construction is increasing and
inventory of homes has decreased from the prior period. The Village is experiencing increased
revenues from permits as remaining inventory in commercial areas develop.
• Interest rates have crept up as the Federal Reserve continues a steady climb in the rates.
• Revenues from sales taxes increased from the prior year and the State of Florida continues to work to
capture online sales taxes.
• The CPI remains lower than 3%, (the number the federal government is looking for).
• The U.S. Gross Domestic Product has been growing at 3%.
• The Village of Tequesta's water rates increased 4% during the year to fund capital needs.

RECONCILIATION OF THE BALANCE SHEET OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
TO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net position are
different because:
Total Fund Balances - Governmental Funds
Net pension asset is not considered to represent a financial asset in
the governmental funds.
Net capital assets used in the governmental activities are not financial resources
and, therefore are not reported in the governmental funds.
Deferred outflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB transactions not reported
in the governmental funds.
Deferred inflows of resources related to pension transactions not recognized
in the governmental funds.
Long-term liabilities, including notes payable, are not due and payable in the
current period and, therefore, are not reported in the governmental funds.
Total OPEB liability is not due and payable in the current period and, therefore,
not reported in the governmental funds.
Net pension liability is not due and payable in the current period and,
therefore, not reported in the funds.

RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND
CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS TO THE
STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities
(Page 20) are different because:
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds (Page 23) $ (516,563)
Governmental funds report capital outlay as expenditures. However, in the
statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their
estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the
amount by which capital outlay exceeded depreciation in the current period.
The details of the difference are as follows:
Capital outlay 999,035
Depreciation expense (773,178)
225,857
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to
governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt
consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither
transaction, however, has any effect on net position.
Payment on notes payable 306,826
Payment on capital lease 122,788
429,614
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the
use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as
expenditures in governmental funds:
The details of the difference are as follows:
Compensated absences (34,068)
Total OPEB liability 14,421
Net pension liability 398,268

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Note 1— Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Description of'Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government -wide financial statements (i.e. the statement of net position and the statement of
activities) report information on all non -fiduciary activities of the primary government and any
component units. All fiduciary funds are presented separately. Governmental activities, which
normally are supported by taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other non -exchange transactions,
are reported separately from business -type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and
charges to external customers for support.
B. Reporting Entity
The Village of Tequesta, Florida (the Village) is a municipal corporation organized in 1957
pursuant to Special Act 57-1915, Laws of Florida. The Village has a Council -Manager form of
government governed by a five (5) member Council elected at large. Each year, the Council
appoints one of its members Mayor, to serve at the pleasure of Council for one year. The Village's
major operations include public safety (police, fire rescue/EMS, building and code enforcement),
transportation (streets and roads), leisure services (culture and recreation), water, stormwater,
refuse & recycling services and general and administrative.
The definition of the financial reporting entity is based upon the concept that elected officials are
accountable to their constituents for their actions. One of the objectives of financial reporting is to
provide users of financial statements with a basis for assessing the accountability of the elected
officials. The financial reporting entity consists of the Village, organizations for which the Village
is financially accountable and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their
relationship with the Village are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity's financial
statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Village is financially accountable for a component
unit if it appoints a voting majority of the organization's governing board and it is able to impose
its will on that organization or there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial
benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the Village. The Village has no component
units to report.
C. Basis of'Presentation — Government -Wide Financial Statements
While separate government -wide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated.
Both sets of statements distinguish between the governmental and business -type activities of the
Village. The governmental activities column incorporates data from governmental funds while
business -types activities incorporate data from the Village's enterprise funds. Separate financial
statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even
though the latter are excluded from the government -wide financial statements.
[CAI
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government -wide
financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are payments in lieu of taxes where the
amounts are reasonably equivalent in value to the interfund services provided and other charges
between the Village's water and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these
charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions
concerned.
The Statement of Net Position reports all financial and capital resources of the Village's
governmental and business -type activities. Governmental activities are those supported by taxes
and intergovernmental revenues. Business -type activities rely to a significant extent on fees and
charges for support. The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct
expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those
that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1)
charges for goods or services that are recovered directly from customers for services rendered and
2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a
particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program
revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
D. Basis of Presentation — Fund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements provide information about the Village's funds, including its fiduciary
funds. Separate statements for each fund category — governmental, proprietary and fiduciary — are
presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise
funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are
aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. Major individual governmental and enterprise funds
are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. Fiduciary funds are presented
apart from major and nonmajor funds.
The Village reports the following major governmental fund:
The General Fund is the Village's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources
of the general government, except those accounted for in another fund.
The Village reports the following major enterprise funds:
The Water Fund, which accounts for the activities of the water utility, which includes the
processing and distribution of potable water to Village residents and some surrounding
communities, and the Stormwater Utility Fund, which accounts for the construction and
maintenance of the Village's stormwater system.
Additionally, the Village reports the following fund type:
The pension trust funds account for the activities of the Public Safety Employees' and the
General Employees' Pension Trust Funds, which accumulate resources for pension benefit
payments to qualified employees.

VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
During the course of operations, the Village has activity between funds for various purposes. Any
residual balances outstanding at year end are reported as due from/to other funds (short-term) and
advances to/from other funds (long-term). While these balances are reported in fund financial
statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government -wide financial
statements. Balances between the funds included in governmental activities are eliminated so that
only the net amount is included as internal balances in the governmental activities column.
Similarly, balances between the funds included in the business -type activities (i.e., the enterprise
funds) are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the
business -type activities column.
Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In
fund financial statements these amounts are reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out. While
reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the
government -wide financial statements. Transfers between the funds included in governmental
activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as transfers in the governmental
activities column. Similarly, balances between the funds included in business -type activities are
eliminated so that only the net amount is included as transfers in the business -type activities
column.
E. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The accounting and financial reporting treatment is determined by the applicable measurement
focus and basis of accounting. Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured
such as current financial resources or economic resources. The basis of accounting indicates the
timing of transactions or events for recognition in the financial statements.
The government -wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources
measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and
expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar
items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have
been met.
The governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources
measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon
as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are
collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current
period. For this purpose, the Village considers revenues to be available if they are collected within
60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability
is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as
expenditures related to compensated absences, and claims and judgments, are recorded only when
payment is due. Capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Issuance of long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing
sources.

VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Property taxes, sales taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal
period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of
the current fiscal period. Entitlements are recorded as revenues when all eligibility requirements are
met, including any time requirements, and the amount is received during the period or within the
availability period for this revenue source (within 60 days of year-end). Expenditure driven grants
are recognized as revenue when the qualifying expenditures have been incurred and all other
eligibility requirements have been met, and the amount is received during the period or within the
availability period for this revenue source (within 60 days of year-end). All other revenue items are
considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the Village.
The proprietary funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the
accrual basis of accounting for reporting its assets and liabilities and deferred inflows and outflows
of resources (as described previously).
The pension trust funds are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Plan member and state
contributions are recognized as revenues in the period that the contributions are due. Employer
contributions to each Plan are recognized when due and the employer has made a formal
commitment to provide the contributions. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and
payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. All plan investments are reported at fair value,
except for a money market fund which is reported at amortized cost; securities traded in the
over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sales were reported on that date are
valued at the last reported bid price. Securities without an established fair value are reported at
estimated fair value. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade -date basis.
F. Budgetary Information
1. Budgetary Basis of Accounting
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. Per established procedures
approved by the Village Council, the designated budget officer may approve a department head's
request to transfer appropriations between accounts, within a department. Although the Village
Council requires all inter -department budget amendments to go before the Village Council, the
budget was adopted on a fund basis and the legal level of budgetary control is at that level. What
this means is that any amendments that change the total fund's budget requires the Village Council
to approve it in the same manner that the original budget was approved — by resolution.
Appropriations in all budgeted funds lapse at the end of the fiscal year even if they have related
encumbrances. Encumbrances are commitments related to unperformed (executory) contracts for
goods or services (i.e., purchase orders, contracts, and commitments). Encumbrance accounting is
utilized to the extent necessary to assure effective budgetary control and accountability and to
facilitate effective cash planning and control. While all appropriations and encumbrances lapse at
year end, valid outstanding encumbrances (those for which performance under the executor
contract is expected in the next year) are re -appropriated and become part of the subsequent year's
budget pursuant to state regulations.

FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
G. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred OutfZows/InfZows of Resources, and Net Position/Fund Balance
1. Cash
The Village's cash is considered to be cash on hand and demand deposits.
2. Investments
Investments for the Village are reported at fair value, except for the position in the State Board of
Administration Investment Pool (SBA). Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to
sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at
the measurement date. The SBA administers Florida PRIME and is governed by Chapter 19-7 of
the Florida Administrative Code and Chapters 218 and 215 of the Florida Statutes. These rules
provide guidance and establish the policies and general operating procedures for the administration
of the Florida PRIME. Florida PRIME invests in a pool of investments whereby the Village owns
a share of the respective pool, not the underlying securities. Florida PRIME is reported at
amortized cost and is exempt from the GASB No. 72 fair value hierarchy disclosures.
3. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories consist of
expendable supplies and water distribution repair parts. The cost of such inventories is recorded as
expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded
as prepaid items in both the government -wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid
items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, infrastructure and intangible assets (e.g.
roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or
business -type activities column in the government -wide financial statements. Capital assets, except
for infrastructure and intangible assets, are defined by the Village as assets with an initial,
individual cost of $1,000 or more and an estimated useful life in excess of two years. For
infrastructure and intangible assets the same estimated minimum useful life is used (in excess of
two years), but only those projects that cost more than $25,000 are reported as capital assets. In
the case of the initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by
governmental activities), the Village chose not to capitalize infrastructure acquired in fiscal years
ending prior to September 30, 2004. As the Village constructs or acquires additional capital assets
each period they are capitalized and reported at historical cost. The reported value excludes normal
maintenance and repairs which are essentially amounts spent in relation to capital assets that do not
increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or increase its estimated useful life. Donated capital
assets are recorded at their acquisition value at the date of donation.
92
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of enterprise funds is included as
part of the capitalized value of the assets constructed. The amount of interest capitalized depends
on the specific circumstances and is not applied to the governmental funds or the government -wide
governmental activities. There was no interest capitalized in 2018.
Land and construction in progress are not depreciated. The other property, plant, equipment, and
infrastructure of the primary government are depreciated using the straight line method over the
following estimated useful lives:
Buildings
20 —
40 years
Improvements
20 —
50 years
Infrastructure
20 —
50 years
Machinery and equipment
5 —
15 years
Intangibles
5 —
20 years
5. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position reports 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(s) and will not be recognized as an outflow of resources
(expense/expenditure) until then. The Village has three items that qualify for reporting in this
category. They are; 1) Deferred outflows related to pensions; 2) Deferred outflows related to
OPEB; and 3) Deferred charge on refunding resulting from the difference in the carrying value of
refunded debt and its reacquisition price, and is amortized over the shorter of the life of the
refunded or refunding debt. These items are reported in the government -wide statement of net
position and the statement of net position of the proprietary funds.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position reports a separate section for deferred inflows
of resources. This separate financial statement element represents an acquisition of net position
that applies to a future period(s) and will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue)
until that time. The Village has one type of item that qualifies for reporting in this category -
Deferred inflows related to pensions. This item is reported in the government -wide statement of net
position and the statement of net position of the proprietary funds.
6. Net Position Flow Assumption
Sometimes the Village will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and
unrestricted resources (e.g. restricted bond or grant proceeds). In order to calculate the amounts to
report as restricted net position and unrestricted net position, in the government -wide and
proprietary fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which
the resources are considered to be applied. It is the Village's policy to consider restricted net
position to have been depleted before unrestricted net position is applied.
7. Fund Balance Flow Assumptions
Sometimes the Village will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and
unrestricted resources (the total of committed, assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In order to
calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned fund balance in
the governmental fund financial statements a flow assumption must be made about the order in
35
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the Village's policy to consider restricted
fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components of unrestricted fund
balance. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same
purpose, committed fund balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned
fund balance is applied last.
8. Fund Balance Policies
The Village classifies fund balance in accordance with GASB Statement No.54 Fund Balance
Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. This statement enhances the usefulness of
fund balance information by providing clearer fund balance classifications that can be more
consistently applied and by clarifying the existing governmental fund type definitions. In the fund
financial statements, governmental funds report classifications that comprise a hierarchy based
primarily on the extent to which the Village is bound to honor constraint of the specific purposes
for which amounts in those funds can be spent.
The Village reports the following fund classifications:
Nonspendable fund balance. Nonspendable fund balances are amounts that can not be spent
because they are either not in spendable form such as inventory or legally or contractually required
to be maintained intact such as a perpetual trust.
Restricted fund balance. Restricted fund balances are amounts that are constrained by the
imposition externally by creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governmental agencies
or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed fund balance. Those amounts can only be used for specific purposes determined by a
formal action of the government's highest level of decision -making authority. The Village Council
is the highest level of decision -making authority for the Village that can, by adoption of an
ordinance or resolution equally binding and of equal decision -making authority, prior to the end of
the fiscal year, commit fund balance. Once adopted, the limitation imposed by the ordinance or
resolution remains in place until a similar action is taken (the adoption of another ordinance or
resolution) to remove or revise the limitation.
Assigned fund balance. Amounts in the assigned fund balance classification are intended to be
used by the Village for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as committed.
The Village Council (Council) has, by adopting a fund balance policy, authorized the Village
Manager and/or the Finance Director to assign fund balance. The Council may also assign fund
balance as it does when appropriating fund balance to cover a gap between estimated revenue and
appropriations in the subsequent year's appropriated budget. Unlike commitments, assignments
generally only exist temporarily. In other words, an additional action does not normally have to be
taken for the removal of an assignment. Conversely, as discussed above, an additional action is
essential to either remove or revise a commitment.
Unassigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance represents fund balance that has not been
assigned to other funds and that has not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific
purposes within the general fund.

VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
H. Revenues and Expenditures/Expenses
1. Program Revenues
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who
purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function
or segment and 2) grants and contributions (including special assessments) that are restricted to
meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. All taxes,
including those dedicated for specific purposes, and other internally dedicated resources are
reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues.
2. Property Taxes
Property tax collections are governed by Chapter 197, Florida Statutes. Property taxes are based
on assessed property value at January 1st as determined by the Palm Beach County Property
Appraiser. The Village sets the property tax millage rate in September. The Palm Beach County
Tax Collector bills and collects all property taxes levied within the County. Florida Statutes limit
the county -wide millage rate to a maximum of 10 mills, excluding voter -approved debt service
millage rates. The millage rate for the Village in fiscal year 2018 was 6.2920 mills. Tax bills are
mailed out November 1st and discounts are available for payments made in the following months;
November 4%, December 3%, January 2% and February 1%. Taxes become delinquent on April
1st. The owner of a tax certificate may at any time after taxes have been delinquent (April 1), for
two years, file an application for a tax deed sale. Tax deeds are issued to the highest bidder for the
property which is sold at public auction.
The Tax Collector remits current taxes collected through four distributions to the Village in the
first two months of the tax year and one distribution each month thereafter. The Village recognizes
property tax revenue in the period in which they are levied. The Tax Collector pays the Village
interest on monies held from day of collection to day of distribution.
3. Compensated Absences
Vacation
The Village's policy permits employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation benefits, which
are eligible for payment upon separation from the Village's service up to the maximum allowable
limit. The liability for such leave is reported as incurred in the government -wide and proprietary
fund financial statements. A liability for those amounts is recorded in the governmental funds only
if the liability has matured as a result of employee resignations or retirements. The liability for
compensated absences includes salary -related benefits, where applicable.
Sick Leave
The Village's policy permits employees to accumulate unused sick leave up to a maximum amount
approved by Council. Upon termination, this leave is eligible for payment at percentages
determined by years of service. The liability for such leave is reported as incurred in the
government -wide and proprietary fund financial statements when the liability has matured. A
liability for those amounts is recorded in the governmental funds only if the liability has matured as
a result of employee resignations or retirements.

VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
4. Proprietary Funds Operating and Non -Operating Revenues and Expenses
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 revenues of the water fund, refuse and recycling fund and stormwater fund are
charges to customers for sales and services. The water fund also recognizes as operating revenue,
the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system.
Operating expenses for the enterprise 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.
L Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect certain reported amounts of assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
5. Implementation of new GASB Statement
Village of Tequesta implemented GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting
for Postemployment Benefits Other Then Pension during fiscal year 2018. GASB Statement No. 75
specifies that governments must recognize their total OPEB liability and deferred outflows of
resources, deferred inflows of resources, and OPEB expense in the financial statements based on
the actuarial present value of projected benefit payments, rather then the smaller OPEB obligation

Note 2 — Reconciliation of Government -Wide and Fund Financial Statements
A. Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund
Balance Sheet and the Government -wide Statement of'Net Position
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance total
governmental funds and net position governmental activities as reported in the
government -wide statement of net position. One element of that reconciliation explains that
"capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore are not
reported in the funds." The amount of this reconciling element is $12,323,915 as explained in
the following detail (additional details shown in Note 3.D.):
Capital assets not being depreciated:
Land $ 634,017
Construction in progress 2,517
Capital assets being depreciated:

Note 3 — Detailed Notes on All Activities and Funds
A. Cash Deposits with Financial Institution
Custodial credit risk -deposits. In the case of deposits, this is the risk that in the event of a bank
failure, the government's deposits may not be returned to it. All of the Village's deposits are held in
qualified public depositories pursuant to State of Florida Statutes, Chapter 280, ,b7orida Security for
Public Deposits Act. Under the Act, every qualified public depository shall deposit with the
Treasurer eligible collateral of the depository to be held subject to his or her order. The pledging
level may range from 25% to 200% of the average monthly balance of public deposits depending
upon the depository's financial condition and establishment period. All collateral must be deposited
with an approved financial institution. Any potential losses to public depositors are covered by
applicable deposit insurance, sale of securities pledged as collateral and, if necessary, assessments
against other qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository in default. At
September 30, 2018, none of the Village's primary bank balances were exposed to custodial credit
risk.
B. Investments
The Village has adopted an investment policy in accordance with Florida Statutes and is authorized
to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, its agencies and instrumentalities, certificates of
deposit, the State Board of Administration Investment Pool, any intergovernmental investment
pools authorized pursuant to Chapter 163 of the Florida Statutes, SEC registered money market
funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency, and
securities of any interest in any open-end or closed -end management type investment company or
investment trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, provided that the portfolio
is limited to obligations of U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities and to repurchase
agreements fully collateralized by such U.S. government obligations and provided that such
investment company or investment trust takes delivery of such collateral either directly or through
an authorized custodian.
The State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the Florida PRIME investment pool which is
governed by Chapter 19-7 of the Florida Administrative Code and Chapters 218 and 215 of the
Florida Statutes. The Florida PRIME is not a registrant with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC). As a participant, the Village invests in a pool of investments owning a share of
the pool, not the underlying securities. The value of the Village's participation is the same as the
value of the pool shares. The investments in the Florida PRIME are reported at amortized cost and
not insured by FDIC or any other governmental agency.
GASB issued Statement No. 79, Certain External Investment Pool and Pool participants
establishing criteria for an external investment pool to qualify to report at amortized cost. Florida
PRIME is exempt from the GASB No. 72 fair value hierarchy disclosures and reports at amortized
cost.

Interest Rate Risk — The Village does not have a formal investment policy that limits investment
maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest
rates nor do they have any investments that are subject to interest rate risk.
Credit Risk - The Village does not have a written investment policy and, therefore, follows Florida
Statue 218.415(17). The Village invests surplus funds in the State Board of Administration
Investment Pool. The Florida PRIME is rated by Standard and Poor's.
Concentration of'Credit Risk — Disclosure is required when the percentage of investments is 5% or
more in any one issuer. At September 30, 2018, the Village only invests in an external investment
pool and therefore is not subject to concentration of credit risk.
Custodial Credit Risk - The risk that, in the event of the failure of the counter party, the Village
will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the
possession of an outside party. At this time, the Village is only invested in the State Board of
Administration of Florida (SBA) investment pool.

Investment Pools and Pool Participants
With regard to SBA - Florida PRIME redemption dates, Chapter 218.409(8) (a), Florida Statutes,
states, "The principal, and any part thereof, of each account constituting the trust fund is subject to
payment at any time from the moneys in the trust fund. However, the Executive Director may, in
good faith, on the occurrence of an event that has a material impact on liquidity or operations of the
trust fund, for 48 hours limit contributions to or withdrawals from the trust fund to ensure that the
Board can invest moneys entrusted to it in exercising its fiduciary responsibility. Such action must
be immediately disclosed to all participants, the Trustees, the Joint Legislative Auditing
Committee, the Investment Advisory Council, and the Participant Local Government Advisory
Council. The Trustees shall convene an emergency meeting as soon as practicable from the time the
Executive Director has instituted such measures and review the necessity of those measures. If the
Trustees are unable to convene an emergency meeting before the expiration of the 48-hour
moratorium on contributions and withdrawals, the Executive Director may extend the moratorium
until the Trustees are able to meet to review the necessity for the moratorium. If the Trustees agree
with such measures, the Trustees shall vote to continue the measures for up to an additional 15
days. The Trustees must convene and vote to continue any such measures before the expiration of
the time limit set, but in no case may the time limit set by the Trustees exceed 15 days."
With regard to liquidity fees, Florida Statute 218.409(4) provides authority for the SBA to impose
penalties for early withdrawal, subject to disclosure in the enrollment materials of the amount and
purpose of such fees. At present, no such disclosure has been made.
As of September 30, 2018, there were no redemption fees or maximum transaction amounts, or any
other requirements that serve to limit a participant's daily access to 100 percent of their account
value.
Investments — Public Safety Pension Trust Fund
Investment Policy Statement
The Public Safety Pension Board of Trustees, as fiduciaries, adopts an Investment Policy Statement
and directs that it applies to all assets under their control. It is the Board's intention to review the
policy at least annually subsequent to the actuarial report and to amend this statement to reflect any
changes in philosophy, objectives, or guidelines. When the Investment Manager feels that the
specific objectives defined in the statement cannot be met, or the guidelines constrict performance,
the Investment Manager will present a formal modified investment policy statement to the Board of
Trustees at a meeting for the Board's review. Once the Board has adopted, the new investment
policy goes into effect 31 days after it has been filed with the State of Florida. There were no
changes to the Investment Policy Statement for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 and the
investments of the Public Safety Pension Trust Fund were in compliance with the investment
policy.

Fair Value Hierarchy
The Plan categorizes its fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy established by
generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on valuation input used to
measure the fair value of an asset:
Level 1 - investments reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets;
Level 2 - investments reflect prices that are based on inputs that are either directly or indirectly
observable for an asset (including quoted prices for similar assets), which may include
inputs in markets that are not considered to be active;
Level 3 - investments reflect prices based upon unobservable inputs for an asset.
The investment pricing transparency determines the category within the hierarchy and should not
be observed at the investment risk. The custodian bank's (primary external pricing vendors) quoted
prices were used to determine level classification based on the fair value hierarchy.
Debt and equity securities classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted
prices at September 30, 2018 (or the most recent market close date if the markets are closed on
September 30) in active markets. This includes common stock, equity mutual funds and bond
mutual funds.
Debt securities are valued using pricing inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants
would use to price an asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from
sources independent of the reporting equity (Level 2). This includes U.S. Treasury bonds and notes,
U.S. agencies, mortgage backed securities, municipal bonds and corporate obligations, including
asset backed securities.
The Real Estate Fund - this fund enters into real estate partnerships with various joint venture
partners. Fair value represents the Fund's share of the net asset value of the investment. The fund
had no outstanding commitments.

Interest Rate Risk - the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an
investment in debt securities. Generally, the longer the time to maturity the greater the exposure.
The Plan does not have a formal policy relating to interest rate risk, however;
• The established performance objectives require investment maturities to provide sufficient
liquidity to pay obligations as they become due.
• At September 30, 2018, there were no direct investments in debt instruments. However,
there were investments in mutual funds that included debt instruments in their portfolio.
Credit Risk - the risk that a debt issuer will not fulfill its obligations. The investment policy limits
credit risk by requiring that:
• Fixed income investments must hold a rating in one of the four highest classifications by a
major rating service.
• Equities must be traded on a national exchange.
• Money market investments must hold a minimum rating of Standard & Poor's Al or
Moody's PL

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Concentration of Credit Risk - the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of an investment in a
single issuer. The investment policy limits exposure to this risk by:
• Limiting investments in common stock, capital stock or convertible stock of any one
issuing company or aggregate of any one issuing company to 5% of the outstanding capital
stock of the company.
• Limiting the value of corporate bonds issued by any single corporation to not more than 5%
of the total fund.
• Limiting investments in corporate common stock and convertible bonds (not to exceed 70%
of the fund assets at fair value). Mortgage -backed securities issued by non -government
entities are limited to 15% of the fixed income portfolio.
• Limiting investments in foreign securities (not to exceed 25% of the value at cost of the
fund).
Custodial Credit Risk - the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the plan will not
be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an
outside party. The Plan's investment policy limits exposure to this risk by:
Requiring all securities to be held with a third party custodian.
Requiring security transactions between a broker/dealer and the custodian involving the
purchase or sale of securities by transfer of money or securities are made on a "delivery vs.
payment" basis to ensure that the custodian will have the security or money, as appropriate,
in hand at the conclusion of the transaction.
Foreign Currency Risk - is the risk of an investment's value changing due to changes in currency
exchange rates. Exposure to foreign currency risk is low as:
• Foreign investments are through ADR's (shares listed in the U.S.), mutual funds (registered
in the U.S.), or Yankee bonds (denominated in U.S. dollars should not to exceed 5% of total
fund).
• The investment policy permits a maximum of 25% of the fair value of the fund securities to
be invested in foreign securities.
• At September 30, 2018, 14.59% of the fair value of the fund was invested in international
mutual funds.
• All the international securities are denominated in U.S. dollars. There is no foreign currency
risk.
Money Weighted Rate of'Return and Target Allocation
For the fiscal years ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the overall annual money -weighted rate of
return (long-term expected real rate of return) on the Public Safety Pension Plan investments (both
Police Officers' and Firefighters') was 8.92% and 10.58% respectively. The money -weighted rate
of return expresses investment performance, net of investment manager and consultant expenses
adjusted for the changing amounts actually invested.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments, shown below by asset class, is
developed using best -estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net
of pension plan investment expenses and inflation). These ranges are combined to produce the long
term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset
allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation.

Florida Retirement System (FRS) - a Statewide Local Government Employees' Retirement
System (SLGERS)
General Information. Full time employees hired before January 1, 1996 are eligible to participate in
the Florida Retirement System (FRS), as provided by Chapters 121 and 112, Florida Statutes, a
cost -sharing, multiple -employer defined benefit plan administered by the State Board of
Administration ("SBA"). The FRS provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living
adjustments and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. A post -employment health
insurance subsidy is also provided to eligible employees. Benefits are established by Chapter 121,
Florida Statutes and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code. Amendments to the law can only
be made by an act of the Florida Legislature.
The State of Florida issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements
and required supplementary information for the FRS. The latest available report may be obtained
by writing to the State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services,
P.O. Box 9000, Tallahassee, Florida 32315-9000 or visiting the website at
www.dms.Myflorida.com/workforce operations/retiremept/publications.
Plan Description: The FRS is a cost -sharing multiple -employer defined benefit pension plan, with a
Deferred Retirement Option Program ("DROP") for eligible employees.
Benefits Provided — Benefits under the Pension Plan are computed on the basis of age, average final
compensation, and service credit. For Pension Plan members enrolled before July 1, 2011: Regular
class members who retire at or after age 62 with at least six years of credited service or 30 years of
service regardless of age are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6%
of their final average compensation based on the five highest years of salary, for each year of
credited service. Vested members with less than 30 years of service may retire before age 62 and
receive reduced retirement benefits. Special Risk Administrative Support class members who retire
at or after age 55 with a least six years of credited service or 25 years of service regardless of age
are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% of their final average
compensation based on the five highest years of salary, for each year of credited service. Special
Risk class members (sworn law enforcement officers, firefighters, and correctional officers) who
retire at or after age 55 with at least six years of credited service, or with 25 years of service
regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, equal to 3.0% of their
54

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
final average compensation based on the five highest years of salary for each year of credited
service. Senior Management Service class members who retire at or after age 62 with at least six
years of credited service or 30 years of service regardless of age are entitled to a retirement benefit
payable monthly for life, equal to 2.0% of their final average compensation based on the five
highest years of salary for each year of credited service. Elected Officers' class members who retire
at or after age 62 with at least six years of credited service or 30 years of service regardless of age
are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, equal to 3.0% (3.33% for judges and
justices) of their final average compensation based on the five highest years of salary for each year
of credited service.
For Plan members enrolled on or after July, 2011, the vesting requirement is extended to eight years
of credited service for all these members and increasing normal retirement to age 65 or 33 years of
service regardless of age for Regular, Senior Management Service, and Elected Officers' class
members, and to age 60 or 30 years of service regardless of age for Special Risk and Special Risk
Administrative Support class members. Also, the final average compensation for all these members
will be based on the eight highest years of salary.
As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the Pension
Plan before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual
cost -of -living adjustment is three percent per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1,
2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated
cost -of -living adjustment. The annual cost -of -living adjustment is a proportion of three percent
determined by dividing the sum of the pre -July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at
retirement multiplied by three percent. Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011,
will not have a cost -of -living adjustment after retirement.
In addition to the above benefits, the DROP program allows eligible members to defer receipt of
monthly retirement benefit payments while continuing employment with a FRS employer for a
period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate. Deferred monthly benefits are held in
the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. There are no required contributions by DROP participants.
Contributions — Effective July 1, 2011, all enrolled members of the FRS, other than DROP
participants, are required to contribute three percent of their salary to the FRS. In addition to
member contributions, governmental employers are required to make contributions to the FRS
based on state-wide contribution rates established by the Florida Legislature. These rates are
updated as of July 1 of each year. Contribution rates during the 2017-2018 fiscal year were as
follows:
Class Employee Employer (1)
Regular 3% 6.20%
Special Risk 3% 21.55%
Special Risk Administrative Support 3% 32.91%

The Village's total contributions to the Pension Plan totaled $48,540 for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2018. This excludes the HIS defined benefit pension plan contributions.
Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, Deferred Outflows of Resources, and Deferred Inflows
of Resources
The total pension liability for the FRS was determined by an actuarial valuation as of the valuation
date of July 1, 2018 calculated based on the discount rate and actuarial assumptions below. The
total pension liability is calculated using the Individual Entry Age Normal cost allocation method,
which differs from the Ultimate Entry Age Normal cost allocation method used in the actuarial
valuation for funding purposes for the System. The net pension liability was measured as of June
30, 2018.
At September 30, 2018, the Village reported a liability of $501,303 for its proportionate share of
the Pension Plan's net pension liability. The Village's proportionate share of the net pension
liability was based on the Village's 2017-2018 fiscal year contributions relative to the 2016-2017
fiscal year contributions of all participating members. At the June 30, 2018 Measurement Date, the
Village's proportionate share was 0.001664323%, which was a decrease of 0.00023% from its
proportionate share measured as of June 30, 2017.
For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, the Village recognized pension expense of $85,973

current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the discount rate for calculating the total pension
liability is equal to the long-term expected rate of return.

Pension Plan Fiduciary Net Position — Detailed information regarding the Pension Plan's fiduciary
net position is available in the separately issued FRS Pension Plan and Other State -Administered
Systems Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Payables to the Pension Plan — At September 30, 2018 the Village reported a payable in the
amount of $415 employee and $4,013 employer for outstanding contributions to the Pension Plan,
both FRS and Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS).
The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program
Plan Description — HIS Program is a cost -sharing multiple -employer defined benefit pension plan
established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. The Florida Legislature establishes and
amends the contribution requirements and benefit terms of the HIS Program. The benefit is a
monthly payment to assist retirees of state -administered retirement systems in paying their health
insurance costs and is administered by the Department of Management Services, Division of
Retirement.
Benefits Provided — For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, eligible retirees and beneficiaries
received a monthly HIS payment equal to the number of years of creditable service completed at the
time of retirement multiplied by $5. The payments are at least $30 but not more than $150 per
month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS benefit, a
retiree under a state -administered retirement system must provide proof of eligible health insurance
coverage, which can include Medicare.
Contributions — For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the contribution rate was 1.66% of payroll
pursuant to section 112.363, Florida Statutes. HIS contributions are deposited in a separate trust
fund from which HIS payments are authorized.
The Village's total contributions to the HIS Plan totaled $6,024 for the fiscal year ended September
30, 2018.
Pension Liabilities, Pension Expense, Deferred Outflows of Resources, and Deferred Inflows
of Resources
Actuarial valuations for the HIS Program are conducted biennially. The July 1, 2018, HIS valuation
is the most recent valuation and was used to develop the liabilities for June 30, 2018.
At September 30, 2018, the Village reported a liability of $119,802 for its proportionate share of
the Pension Plan's net pension liability, of which $3,130 represents Village's net pension liability
due within one year due to the pension's plan fiduciary net position being less than the amount of
benefit payments expected to be paid within one year. The Village's proportionate share of the net
pension liability was based on the Village's 2017-2018 fiscal year contributions relative to the
2016-2017 fiscal year contributions of all participating members. At June 30, 2018, the Village's
proportionate share was 0.001131901%, which was a decrease of 0.00008% from its proportionate
share measured as of June 30, 2017.
The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of the valuation date,

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 3.87%. In general, the discount
rate for calculating the total pension liability is equal to the single rate equivalent to discounting at
the long-term expected rate of return for benefit payments prior to the projected depletion date.
Because the HIS benefit is essentially funded on a pay-as-you-go basis, the depletion date is
considered to be immediate. The single equivalent discount rate is equal to the municipal bond rate
selected by the FRS Actuarial Assumption Conference. The Bond Buyer General Obligation
20-Bond Municipal Bond Index was adopted as the applicable municipal bond index.

Overview: The Village maintains two single -employer defined benefit pension plans, the Public
Safety Officers' Pension Trust Fund and the General Employees' Pension Trust Fund. The sole
administration of and responsibility for the proper operation of the retirement system is vested in
The Board of Trustees. The defined benefit pension plans do not issue stand alone financial
statements.
General Employees' Pension Board consists of five Trustees. Two are legal residents of the
municipality, appointed by the Village Council, and two are the full time General Employee
members. The fifth Trustee is selected by a majority vote of the other Trustees.
Public Safety Board consists of five Trustees. Two are legal residents of the municipality,
appointed by the Village Council, one is a full time police officer member, and one is full time
firefighter member. The fifth Trustee is selected by a majority vote of the other Trustees.
The Public Safety Officers' Pension Trust Fund receives contributions that may not be used to pay
benefits of all employee classes, therefore, two separate trust funds, the Firefighters' Pension Trust
Fund (FPTF) and the Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund (PPTF) are reflected separately in the
financial statements, as well as the General Employee's Trust Fund (GPTF).
Effective February 1, 2013, the PPTF was not available to new employees, however, Police
officers, who began work with the Village after February 1, 2013 are able to participate in a defined
contribution plan (described in note 3F below).

Actuarial Assumptions and Net Pension Liability (NPL)
The actuarial valuation of the liabilities for the FPTF, PPTF and GPTF as of the September 30,
2017 measurement date were determined as of the beginning of the year, October 1, 2016 (based on
actuarial valuation results as reported in the October 1, 2016 actuarial valuation). Using a
measurement date of September 30, 2017 allows for timelier reporting at the end of the year. The
GPTF report was dated January 12, 2017 and the FPTF and PPTF reports were dated August 1,
2017. These liabilities are used for GASB Statement No. 68 reporting for the reporting period
ending September 30, 2018.
The total pension liability for the Village's defined benefit pension plans was determined using the
following actuarial methods and assumptions, applied to all prior periods included in the
measurement period. Actuarially determined contribution rates are calculated as of October 1, two
years prior to the end of the fiscal year in which contributions are reported. If significant changes
occur during the year, such as benefit changes or changes in assumptions or methods, these would
be noted in the footnotes.

Sensitivity of the Net Pension Liability (Asset) to Changes in the Discount Rate
A single discount rate of 7.25% as of September 30, 2018 and 7.00% for 2017 was used to measure
the total pension liability. This single discount rate was based on the expected rate of return on
pension plan investments of 7%. The projection of cash flows used to determine this single
discount rate assumed that plan member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate
and that employer contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between the total
actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on these assumptions, the
pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future
benefit payments of current plan 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.

Vllage of'Tequesta Defined Contribution Plan
The Village Single -Employer Defined Contribution Plan (the Plan) was established on February 1,
2013 with and effective date of March 1, 2013. The Plan is a 401(a) money purchase plan in the form
of the Empower Retirement Governmental Money Purchase Plan and Trust (The Plan) with assets of
the Plan held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the Plan participants and their beneficiaries. The
assets shall be invested in the Plan and shall not be diverted to any other purpose. The employer's
beneficial ownership of Plan assets held in the Empower Retirement Trust shall be held for the further
exclusive benefit of the Plan participants. The Village Manager is the coordinator for the Plan and is
authorized to execute all necessary agreements with the Empower Retirement Trust incidental to the
administration of the Plan. The Village serves as Trustee under the Plan.
In a defined contribution plan, benefits depend solely on amounts contributed to the Plan plus
investment earnings.
The Plan covered Police officers hired after February 1, 2013. Employees must designate a
mandatory participation contribution between the range of 1 to 12% for the Plan year as a condition of
participation in the Plan. The participant shall not have the right to discontinue or vary the rate after
becoming a Plan participant. Newly eligible employees have an election window of 30 days from the
date of eligibility to make the election to participate in the mandatory contribution portion of the Plan
which will begin the first of the month following the end of the election window. This election is
irrevocable and remains in force until the employee terminates employment or ceases to be eligible to
participate in the Plan.
The Village is required to match employee contributions up to a maximum contribution of 5%.
Employees are immediately vested in the Plan. Plan provisions are established and may be amended
by the Village.
The Village does not hold or administer resources of the Plan and consequently, the Plan does not
meet the requirements for inclusion in the Village's financial statements. The Plan does not issue a
stand-alone financial report. The fair value of the Plan assets at September 30, 2018 was $323,992.
Employee contributions to the Plan for fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 were $57,473; the
Village's contributions were $54,149.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
On June 1, 2018, The Village Council voted to reopen the defined benefit pension plan for full time
police officers. The effective date is March 14, 2019. The 401(a) Plan balances for the participating
police officers would be transferred to the Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund. This transfer amount
would be equal to the Village contributions to the 401(a) Plan for these members plus the
contributions these members paid into the Plan, including interest. The estimated transfer amount is
$269,284.
There were no contributions to 401(a) Plan after June 13, 2018 by police officers who elected to join
defined benefit pension plan.
G. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB)
Vllage of'Tequesta's Other Postemployment Benefits Plan
Plan description. The Village of Tequesta provides health insurance benefits to its retired employees
through a single -employer plan administered by the Village. Pursuant to the provisions of Section
112.0801, Florida Statutes, former employees who retire from the Village and eligible dependents may
continue to participate in the Village's fully -insured benefit plan for medical insurance coverage. The
Village subsidizes the premium rates paid by retirees by allowing them to participate in the plan at
reduced or blended group (implicitly subsidized) premium rates for both active and retired employees.
These rates provide an implicit subsidy for retirees because, on an actuarial basis, their current and
future claims are expected to result in higher costs to the plan on average than those of active
employees. The benefits provided under this defined benefit plan are provided until the retiree's
attainment of age 65 (or until such time at which retiree discontinues coverage under the Village
sponsored plans, if earlier).
Funding Policy. The Village's Other Post -Employment Benefits are unfunded. That is, the Village does
not have a separate Trust Fund to make contributions to advance -fund the obligation. Current and
future retirees are required to pay 100% of the blended premium to continue coverage under the
Village's group health insurance program.
Summary of Membership Information. The following table provides a summary of the number of
participants in the plan of the measurement date:
Inactive members or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 3
Inactive members entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 0
Active members 92
Total 95
OPEB Liability, Expense, Deferred Outflows of Resources, and Deferred Inflows of Resources
The Village recognizes the OPEB liability and the OPEB expense in the financial statements, along
with the related deferred outflows and inflows of resources. The OPEB liability is the difference
between the total OPEB liability and the plan's fiduciary net position. Since the plan is currently
unfunded, the net OPEB liability is equal to and reported as total OPEB liability.
At September 30, 2018, the Village reported an OPEB liability of $623,600 that as determined by an

Per the agreement, Palm Beach County provided for partial funding, land acquisition and design
and construction of a branch library within Tequesta. Upon completion of the project, the library
was leased to Palm Beach County for 50 years for an annual rent of one dollar. In the event the
Village terminates the lease before the end of 50 years, the Village must reimburse Palm Beach
County a depreciated value using a useful life of 25 years based on an initial value of $405,000
calculated on a straight-line basis.

L Contracted Services —Refuse and Recycling Collection
The Village entered into new agreement with Waste Management, Inc of Florida with the initial
term for a period of eight years beginning October 1, 2017 and ending September 30, 2025 with
optional renewal for one additional five year period. With this agreement the Village granted Waste
Management the exclusive franchise for solid waste collection of residential, commercial, industrial
and roll -off refuse, recycling and vegetative waste. The annual change in the collection component
is determined using the Water, Sewer, and Trash Collection CPI published monthly by Bureau of
Labor Statistics during the most recent previous twelve consecutive months period beginning on
April 1 and ending March 31.
J. Risk Management
The Village 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. While the Village
cannot anticipate the areas in which potential claims may arise, the Village purchases commercial
insurance to protect against areas of possible exposure germane to municipal entities such as
property, liability, automobile, workers' compensation, crime, storage tank, inland marine and
railroad coverage. Deductibles and limits vary by coverage and are secured based upon the
Village's tolerance of risk retention in each area.
At the Village Council's direction, the property deductible of $100,000 is applicable for all perils
excluding hurricane/windstorm damage. The Florida Municipal Insurance Trust (FMIT) applies a
named storm deductible of 5% of the 100% value of real and personal property, personal property
of others in our care, custody and control values at the time of loss or damage at the locations
where the damage occurred, subject to the policy deductible, whichever is greater. The Village
continues to self -insure all properties valued under $100,000. FMIT issued members in good
standing a return of premium credit. The Village received a total credit of $6,373 related to policy
year 2016/2017.
The Village remains fully insured with the FMIT for workers' compensation coverage with
statutory limits. Premiums are based upon risk class and remuneration of covered employees
adjusted by an experience modification factor which includes three prior years of claims history.
At the end of each fiscal year, the plan is audited and the Village can either receive a return of
premium or be required to pay additional premium base upon actual versus estimated payroll.
FMIT's final audit for fiscal year 2017/2018 resulted in the Village being refunded a total of $9,906
in fiscal year 2019.
There were no significant changes in insurance coverage from coverage in prior years. Settled
claims have not exceeded the commercial coverage in any of the past three fiscal years.

VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
M. Fund Balance
Minimum Fund Balance Policy
The Village Council has adopted a financial policy to maintain a minimum level of unassigned fund
balance in the general fund. The target level is set at two months of general fund operating
expenditures over annual revenues (approximately 16%). This amount is intended to provide fiscal
stability when economic downturns and other unexpected events occur. If fund balance falls below
the minimum target level because it has been used, essentially as a "revenue" source, as dictated by
current circumstances, the policy provides for actions to replenish the amount to the minimum
target level. Generally, replenishment is to occur within a three-year period.
At September 30, 2018 the unassigned fund balance was below the minimum target level
(approximately 9.13%).
N. Interfund Transfers
The composition of interfund transfers for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018 is as follows:
Interfund 'Transfers
Transfers In
Capital Capital
Improvement Fund Projects Fund
Transfers Out (1) (2) Total
General Fund
540,100 200,000 740,100
Total Interfund Transfers $ 540,100 200,000 $ 740,100
(1) Transfer is to fund sidewalks and road improvements.
(2) Transfer is to fund architect and engineering cost of new recreation facility.
O. Joint Ventures
The Village, in conjunction with six other municipalities, organized a consortium to provide mutual
fire and emergency aid. The consortium is known as the Northern Area Mutual Aid Consortium
(NAMAC). During 1999, the consortium purchased equipment and supplies as well as collected
contributions. The consortium does not issue separate financial statements. The Village has not
been obligated to contribute any funds to the consortium since its inception in 1999.
P. Change in Accounting Principles —Adjustment to Beginning Net Position
The Village of Tequesta implemented GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial
Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pension during fiscal year 2018. GASB
Statement No. 75 specifies that governments must recognize their total OPEB liability and deferred
outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and OPEB expense in the financial statements
VILLAGE OF TEQUESTA, FLORIDA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
based on the actuarial present value of projected benefit payments, rather than the smaller OPEB
obligation based on contribution requirements, under GASB Statement No.45
The implementation of GASB Statement No. 75 required removing the net OPEB obligation based
on contribution requirements as defined in GASB Statements No. 45 and recording a total OPEB
liability as defined by GASB Statement No. 75 at the beginning of the fiscal year, by restating the
beginning balances of net position for both governmental activities and business -type activities.
The restated beginning balances are shown on the face of the Statement of Activities. Deferred
outflows and deferred inflows defined in GASB Statement No. 75 were recorded during the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2018.
The detail of the adjustment to the beginning net position is shown below:

NOTE TO THE BUDGETARY COMPARISON SCHEDULE
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
Note 1 — Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
The Village is required to present a budget to actual comparison for the general fund and
any major special revenue fund with a legally adopted annual budget. The Village may not
include nonmajor special revenue funds, or funds of other fund types. This fiscal year, the
Village presents this schedule for the general fund only.
Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. For budgeting purposes, current year encumbrances are not
treated as expenditures.
All budgets are legally enacted through passage of a resolution. Although the Village
Council requires all inter -department budget amendments to go before the Village Council
for approval, the budget was adopted on a fund basis and the legal level of budgetary
control is at that level. What this means is that any amendment that changes the fund's total
budget requires the Village Council to approve it in the same manner that the original
budget was approved — by resolution.
The original buds is the budget in place at the start of the fiscal year, which includes all of
the following
The budget passed by the Village Council
+Subsequent amendments made prior to the start of the fiscal year
+Carryovers from the previous year
=Original budget
The anal bud
g includes all adjustments to the budget applicable to the fiscal year, even if
they take place after the close of the fiscal year.
During the year, total supplemental appropriations of $843,636 were adopted for the
General Fund. Appropriations are legally controlled at the fund level and expenditures may
not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at that level.

FIDUCIARY FUNDS
FIDUCIARY FUNDS
Fiduciary funds are used to report assets held in a trustee or agency capacity for others and
therefore cannot be used to support the government's own programs. Pension trust funds are
fiduciary funds that are used to report resources required to be held in trust for the members and
beneficiaries of defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution plans, other post -employment
benefit plans, or other employee benefit plans. The Village accounts for two defined benefit
plans (Public Safety reports separate trust funds for Police Officers and Firefighters) and a
separate fund is reported for each individual trust fund. The three trust funds are as follows:
Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund — This fund accounts for the accumulation of resources and
for contributions and benefits of the firefighter employees.
Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund — This fund accounts for the accumulation of resources
and for contributions and benefits of the police employees hired prior to February 1, 2013.
General Employees' Pension Trust Fund — This fund accounts for the accumulation of
resources and for contributions and benefits for the general employees of the Village.

Note: For debt repaid with property taxes, the percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable assessed property values.
Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of the Village taxable assessed value and dividing it by the PBC taxable
assessed value. (Data provided by the PBC Property Appraiser's Office)
Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the Village of Tequesta. This schedule
estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and businesses of the Village of
Tequesta. This process recognizes that, when considering the Village'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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the Honorable Mayor, Village Council and Village Manager
Village of Tequesta, Florida
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 the Village of Tequesta, Florida (the Village), as of and
for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements,
which collectively comprise the Village's basic financial statements, and have issued our report
thereon dated March 29, 2019.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Village'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 Village's
internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Village'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 Village'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.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Village'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 Village'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 Village's
internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other
purpose.
