To the Citizens of the
Village of Tequesta, Florida
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the Village of Tequesta, Florida
(Tequesta) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001 is hereby submitted. Responsibility for
both the accuracy of the data, and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all
disclosures, rests with Tequesta. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is
accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the
financial position and results of operations of the various funds and account groups of Tequesta.
All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of Tequesta's financial
activities have been included.
r The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented in four sections: introductory,
financial, statistical and other reports. The introductory section includes this transmittal letter,
Tequesta's organizational chart and a list of principal officials. The financial section includes the
general purpose financial statements and schedules, as well as the auditor's report on the general
purpose financial statements. The statistical section includes selected financial and demographic
information, generally presented on a multi -year basis. The other reports section includes the
auditor's reports on internal control, compliance and the management letter.
This report includes all funds and account groups of Tequesta. Tequesta provides a full
range of services. These services include police protection; fire and emergency medical services;
the construction and maintenance of streets, bridges and infrastructure; recreational activities and
cultural events; and the operation of a municipal water supply system, in addition to general
(" government activities. Tequesta has a contract with a privately owned sanitation company for
r refuse and recycling collection service.

ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
The Village is located at the extreme northeastern quadrant of Palm Beach County.
Tequesta is a relatively affluent residential community with adequate commercial facilities --
necessary to provide goods and services to its residents. Northern Palm Beach County ranks as
one of the top growth areas in the country. Although Tequesta'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, Tequesta's growth potential for the
foreseeable future continues to be favorable.
Property value assessments for fiscal year 2000/2001 increased approximately 10%. The
Village will continue to monitor property values to ensure that any negative developments will
be immediately addressed with a fiscal policy necessary to maintain the financial integrity of the
Village's financial position, while keeping in mind the level of services provided and the
associated tax burden of our citizens.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
The Village of Tequesta's Mayor and Council in concert with the administration are
committed to community enhancement and enhanced quality of life for its residents. The Village
has identified significant capital improvement projects to be undertaken in the next year. The _
administration will address these issues through prudent, responsible financial planning and
accountability principals.
• To build a greater sense of community unity and pride through the completion of a new
Public Safety Facility.
• Complete utility infrastructure improvements for residents of the Tequesta Peninsula in
an efficient and economic manner.
• Continue to explore alternative revenue sources, including annexation of unincorporated
areas contiguous to the Village's boundaries, and grants from the state and federal
government.
• The Village of Tequesta has one of the quickest Police and Fire response times in Palm
Beach County. The Village will continue to maintain and improve this record and will
continue to provide expanded community Police and Fire programs, such as the Tequesta
Marine Unit and Canine Team.
• Execute lease agreement for the installation of a new mono pole to enhance cellular
communications and provide new revenues.
• Conduct a fleet audit to assess needs to ensure that the entire fleet system is efficient and
current.
• To evaluate and implement contemporary financial policies and procedures to ensure for
an efficient and economical operation. _
DEPARTMENT HIGHLIGHT
Finance Department
This year the Finance Department staff has faced some formidable challenges and has
demonstrated the ability to rise to these challenges. Some of the challenges faced this year were;
1) 100% turnover in the finance staff, 2) going out for RFP and hiring of new auditors; 3)
physically moving the finance offices and files; 4) complete re -installation of the network
system; 5) converting the payroll and utility billing software from DOS to Windows and 6)
research, complied and corrected errors (dating back several years) in the accounting records.
This was achieved while continuing to process the day-to-day business of the Village of
Tequesta. Because of the strong, cohesive finance staff that has been developed, the Village of
Tequesta can expect to see continued improvements in the coming years.
INFRASTRUCTURE MAINTENANCE AND EXPANSION
Maintenance and expansion of the community's general infrastructure (such as roads,
bridges, sidewalks and storm water drainage systems), streetscape beautification projects,
expansion of potable water treatment facilities and development/redevelopment of the Tequesta
Village Center is a priority of Tequesta. To address this concern, the government has developed
a five-year capital projects plan that provides a framework for the development and maintenance
of infrastructure to meet current and future needs.
,.. This plan is revised each budget year in keeping with the priorities and needs of
Tequesta. Also, changes affecting budget projections may require changes to the capital projects
plan that will enable Tequesta to maintain adequate cash reserves and required fund balances.
The 2001 Capital Improvement Fund expenditures for capital outlay totaled $433,023 for
the following improvements:

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The management of the government is responsible for establishing and maintaining an
internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the government are protected from --
loss, theft or misuse and to ensure that adequate accounting data are compiled to allow for the
preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute,
assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that:
(1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation
of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. -"
Budgetary Controls
In addition to conforming to generally accepted accounting principles, Tequesta
maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance
with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the Village
Council. Activities of the General Fund, Special Revenue Fund, Capital Project Funds and
Enterprise Funds are included in the annual appropriated budget. The level of budgetary control
(that is, the level at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated amount) is
established at the individual fund level. The government also maintains an encumbrance
accounting system as one technique of accomplishing budgetary control. Encumbered amounts
lapse at year-end. However, encumbrances are generally re -appropriated as part of the following
year's budget. As demonstrated by the statements and schedules included in the financial section
of this report, Tequesta continues to meet its responsibility for sound financial management. _

appropriate government services.
General Fund Balance
The undesignated balance of the General Fund was $2,411.175 as of September 30, 2001,
which is adequate to provide the capital resources for government operations. It is unlikely that
Tequesta will enter the short-term debt market to pay for current operating expenditures.

Avg. daily consumption 2.779 3.11 (0.331) (10.64)
Fiduciary Operations
Tequesta's fiduciary operations consist of an Expendable Trust Fund which was
established to account for forfeitures received by the Police Department.
In 1996. Tequesta established a Pension Trust Fund to account for the Village '
Employees' Pension Trust Fund.
Debt Administration
The Debt Service Fund was closed on September 30, 1994. Future debt service payments
will be reported in the Special Revenue Fund, for retirement of the Improvement Revenue
Refunding Bonds Series 1994, in the amount of $1,365,000, dated June 24, 1994.
Tequesta has a legal debt limit established by Section 6.02 of the Village Charter. The
aggregate indebtedness regardless of type (general obligation bonds, revenue bonds or special
assessment bonds) cannot exceed 10% of the assessed taxable value of real property located
within Tequesta. As of September 30, 2001, taxable real property within Tequesta was assessed
at $487,490,952.
As of September 30, 2001, Tequesta's net bonded debt was $738,088, the ratio of net
bonded debt to taxable value was 0.15%, and the net bonded debt per capita was $139.61.
Cash Management
Tequesta maintains two pooled cash accounts known as the general corporation --'
investment account and the water enterprise investment account. The Finance Director monitors
cash requirements and the Village Manager, upon recommendation from the Finance Director,
approves temporary idle cash for investment. The investment policy of Tequesta is to maximize
its investments in high quality, risk -free securities authorized by State statutes, while maintaining
a competitive yield on its portfolio.
OM
Tequesta's investments for the current year consisted of deposits with the State Board of
Administration - Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Investment Pool, obligations of
the U.S. Government, and amounts held by an outside custodian on behalf of the Pension Trust
Funds. Investments with the State Board of Administration consist of obligations of the U.S.
Treasury and its agencies, money market securities of highest quality such as commercial paper,
banker's acceptance, corporate notes and repurchase agreements. Because of the short maturities
and high quality, securities in this fund are considered practically risk free.
On September 30, 2001, investments held by Tequesta totaled $11,537,239, which is
detailed in Note 3, (Notes to Cash & Investment Footnotes). The average yield on short-term
surplus operating funds investments maturing during the year was 5.11%.
Risk Management
During 2001, Tequesta continued using third -party insurance coverage for its Risk
Management Program. A detailed list of insurance in effect is contained in the Schedule of
Insurance on page 72 of this report.
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit
Florida state statutes require an annual audit by independent certified public accountants.
The accounting firm of Rachlin, Cohen & Holtz, LLP, CPA's was selected to conduct Tequesta's
audit. The auditor's report on the general purpose financial statements is included in the
financial section of this report.
Awards
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of
Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to Tequesta for its comprehensive annual
financial report for the fiscal year ended September 30. 2000. This was the eighteenth
consecutive year that Tequesta has received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a
Certificate of Achievement, Tequesta had to 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 continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement
Program's requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for
another certificate.
Acknowledgements
The completion of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report was made possible by the
dedicated service of the entire staff of the Finance Department. Each member of the department
has our sincere appreciation for the contributions made in the preparation of this report.
In closing, without the leadership and support of the Village Council of the Village of
Tequesta, preparation of this report would not have been possible. ...

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Honorable Mayor, Village Commission and Village Manager
Village of Tequesta, Florida
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the Village of Tequesta,
Florida (the Village) as of and for the year ended September 30, 2001, as listed in the table of contents.
These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the Village's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
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 general purpose financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall general purpose financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of the Village of Tequesta, Florida at September 30, 2001 and the results
of its operations and cash flows of its proprietary fund types for the year then ended, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated April 18, 2002
on our consideration of the Village's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants. That report is an integral
part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in
conjunction with the report in considering the results of our audit.

Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial
statements taken as a whole. The accompanying combining, individual fund and account group
statements and schedules as listed in the table of contents are presented for purposes of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the general purpose financial statements of the Village. Such
information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose
financial statements and in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the general
purpose financial statements taken as a whole.
The information shown in the statistical section listed in the table of contents has not been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements and accordingly,
we express no opinion thereon.

VILLAGE OF TE UESTA FLORIDA

NOTES TO GENERAL PURPOSE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2001
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Village of Tequesta, Florida 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.
The Village's major operations include public safety (police, fire rescue/EMS), streets and roads,
culture and recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, water, stormwater, recycling
services and general and administrative. The general purpose financial statements of the Village
have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States (GAAP) as applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards
Board (GASB) is the accepted standard -setting body for establishing governmental and financial
reporting principles. The more significant of the Village's accounting policies are described
below.
a. The Financial Reporting Entity
The financial statements were prepared in accordance with GASB Statement No. 14, The
Financial Reporting Entity, which establishes standards for defining and reporting on the
financial reporting entity. 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 primary government, organizations for which the primary government is financially
accountable, and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their
relationship with the primary government 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.
Based upon the application of these criteria, the Village Employees' Retirement System (the
Retirement System) meets the criteria described above and has been included in the
accompanying financial statements. The Retirement System functions for the benefit of these
employees and is governed by a seven member board, of which the Village Council appoints
three members. The Village and Retirement System members are obligated to fund all
Retirement System costs based upon actuarial valuations. The Village funds the difference
between member and other contributions and the actuarial cost. Considering these factors, it
has been determined that the Retirement System is fiscally dependent on the Village, which
makes the Retirement System a component unit of the Village. Since the Retirement System
provides services exclusively for the benefit of the Village, the Retirement System is reported
as a blended component unit, specifically as the Village Employees' Retirement System. The
Village Employees' Retirement System administers the following Plans: The Firefighters'
Pension Trust Fund, The Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund, and The General Employees'
Pension Trust Fund. This component unit does not issue a stand alone financial report.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
b. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation
The accounts of the Village are organized and operated on the basis of funds and account
groups. A fund is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a self -balancing set of
accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used
to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance -related legal and contractual
provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and
Ls
managerial requirements. Account groups are a reporting device to account for certain assets
and liabilities of the governmental funds not recorded directly in those funds.
The following are the funds and account groups used by the Village:
Governmental funds are used to account for the Village's general government activities,
including the collection and disbursement of earmarked monies (special revenue funds) am
and the acquisition or construction of general fixed assets (capital projects funds).
The General Fund accounts for all financial resources of the general government,
except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Special Revenue Fund accounts for revenue sources that are legally restricted to ..
expenditures for specific resources. The Special Revenue Fund accumulates revenues
as required by the Improvement Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 1994. These
revenues include franchise fees and occupational licenses.
The Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for
the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities (other than those to be
financed by the Enterprise Funds). The Village has established the following two
capital projects funds:
Capital Improvement Fund
Capital Projects Fund
Proprietary Funds are accounted for on the flow of economic resources measurement
focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded
when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. The Village
applies all applicable FASB pronouncements issued on or before November 30, 1989
unless those pronouncements conflict with or are contradicted by GASB pronouncements.
Proprietary funds include the following fund type:
Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations (a) that are financed and operated in
a manner similar to private business enterprises - where the intent of the governing body is
that the costs (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or service to the "
general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user
charges; or (b) where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of
revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital
maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability or other purposes.

formal trust agreement. The Pension Trust Funds are accounted for in essentially the same
manner as the proprietary funds, using the same measurement focus and basis of accounting.
The Village has three pension trust funds as follows:
Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund
Police Officers' Pension Trust Fund
General Employees' Pension Trust Fund
The Expendable Trust Fund is accounted for in essentially the same manner as the
governmental fund types, using the same measurement focus and basis of accounting. The
Village has one Expendable Trust Fund, the Special Law Enforcement Trust Fund, to
account for forfeitures received by the Police Department to be expended for certain law
enforcement purposes as prescribed by Florida Statute Chapter 932.704.
Account Groups. The general freed assets account group is used to account for fixed
assets not accounted for in proprietary or trust funds. The general long-term debt account
group is used to account for general long-term debt and certain other liabilities that are not
specific liabilities of proprietary or trust funds.
ic. Basis of Accounting
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its
measurement focus. All governmental funds and expendable trust funds are accounted for
using a current financial resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only
current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating
statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and
decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
All proprietary funds and pension trust funds are accounted for on a flow of economic
resources measurement focus. With this measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities
associated with the operation of these funds are included on the balance sheet. Fund equity
(i.e., net total assets) is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components.
Proprietary fund type operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases
(expenses) in net total assets.

c. Basis of Accounting (Continued)
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by all governmental fund types and
expendable trust fund. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are
recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become both measurable and
available). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and
"available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used "
to pay liabilities of the current period. A 90 day availability period is used for revenue
recognition for all other governmental fund revenues. Expenditures are recorded when the
related fund liability is incurred.
Those revenues susceptible to accrual are franchise fees, taxes, special assessments, licenses,
interest revenue, and intergovernmental revenues. Sales taxes collected and held by the state "
at year end on behalf of the Village are also recognized as revenues. Fines and permit
revenues are not susceptible to accrual because generally they are not measurable until
received in cash.
d. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for
the General Fund, Special Revenue Fund, Capital Projects Funds and the Enterprise Funds.
All budgets are legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
Budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. For
budgeting purposes, current year encumbrances are not treated as expenditures.
The Village follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the
financial statements: --
1) Prior to September 1S`, the Village Manager submits to the Village Council a proposed
operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the following October I". The
operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
2) Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3) Prior to October I", the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
L
Changes or amendments to the total budgeted fund expenditures must be approved by the
Village Council. Management may make unlimited interfunctional transfers within a fund
without seeking Council approval. However, in order to make the most effective use of the
budgetary process, it is the policy of the Village to make as few budget adjustments as
possible. During the year, supplemental appropriations of $394,639 were made.
Appropriations are legally controlled at the fund level and expenditures may not legally
exceed budgeted appropriations at that level. Appropriations lapse at year end. ..

g. Interfund Receivables and Payables
Transactions between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements
outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are reported as "due to/from other funds."
h. Inventories
Inventories of the general fund are valued at cost on a first -in, first -out (FIFO) method.
Inventories consist of expendable supplies held for consumption. The cost is recorded as an
expenditure at the time individual inventory items are purchased. Inventories are recorded on
the balance sheet as a reservation of fund balance.
Inventories of the Water Fund are valued at lower of cost (determined using the weighted
average) or market and consist of pipes, valves, fittings and meters.
i. Fixed Assets
Fixed assets used in governmental funds are recorded in the General Fixed Assets Account
Group at cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated fixed assets
are valued at estimated fair value on the date of donation. Public domain ("infrastructure"),
including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems and
lighting systems are not capitalized. Assets recorded in the General Fixed Asset Account
Group are not depreciated.
Depreciation of all exhaustible fixed assets used by proprietary funds is charged as an
expense against operations. Accumulated depreciation is reported on proprietary fund
balance sheets. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the
straight-line method. The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings 20-40 years
Improvements 20-30 years
Equipment 3-10 years
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or
materially extend the assets' lives are not included in the general fixed assets account group
or capitalized in the proprietary funds.

The issuance costs and debt discount on long-term debt are amortized over the life of the
bonds using the straight-line method. "'
k. Compensated Absences
Compensated absences are amounts employees have earned for vacation and sick leave.
Compensated absences are accrued as employees earn the rights to the benefits based upon
length of service.
In the governmental funds, compensated absences that are expected to be liquidated with
expendable available financial resources are reported as an expenditure and fund liability. .r
Amounts not expected to be liquidated with expendable financial resources are reported in

The Village reports long-term debt of governmental funds at face value in the General Long -
Term Debt Account Group. Certain other governmental fund obligations not expected to be
financed with current available financial resources are also reported in the general long-term
debt account group. Long-term debt and other obligations financed by proprietary funds are
reported as liabilities in the appropriate funds.
n. Encumbrances
Encumbrance accounting is used for purposes of budgetary control and recorded at the time a
purchase order or other commitment is entered into. Encumbrances outstanding at year end are
reported as reservations of fund balances until expended or accrued as a liability of the fund.
o. Reserves and Designations
The Village has established reservation and designations of fund balances and retained
earnings. The reserved fund balances for governmental funds represent those portions of the
fund balance not considered as available for future appropriation or legally segregated for a
specific use. Reserved retained earnings for proprietary funds represent the net assets that
have been legally identified for specific purposes. Designated fund balances represent
tentative plans for future use of financial resources.

p. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although
these estimates are based on management's knowledge of current events and actions it may
undertake in the future, they may ultimately differ from actual results.
q. Memorandum Only — Total Columns
Total columns on the general purpose financial statements are captioned as "memorandum
only" because they do not represent consolidated financial information and are presented only
to facilitate financial analysis. The columns do not present information that reflects financial
position or results of operations in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States. Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data.
r. Comparative Data/Reclassifications
Comparative total data for the prior year has been presented in selected sections of the
accompanying financial statements in order to provide an understanding of the changes in
the Village's financial position and operations. Also, certain amounts presented in the prior
year data have been reclassified in order to be consistent with the current year's presentation.
NOTE 2. PROPERTY TAXES
Ad valorem taxes are assessed and liened as of January l' and billed the following October.
They are due and payable on November V of each year or as soon thereafter as the assessment
roll is certified and delivered to the Tax Collector. These taxes are collected by the County and
remitted to the Village. Revenue is recognized at the time monies are received from the County.
All unpaid taxes become delinquent on April 1 following the year in which they are assessed.
Discounts are allowed for early payment at the rate of 4% in the month of November, 3% in the
month of December, 2% in the month of January and 1 % in the month of February. The taxes
paid in March are without discount. At September 301h, unpaid delinquent taxes, if any, are
reflected as a receivable on the balance sheet.
Assessed values are established by the Palm Beach County Property Appraiser at approximately
fair market value. The assessed value of property at January 1, 2000, upon which the 2000-2001
levy was based, was approximately $436 million. The County bills and collects all property
taxes for the Village.
Under Florida law, the assessment of all properties and the collection of all county, municipal,
school district and special district property taxes are consolidated in the offices of the County
Property Appraiser and County Tax Collector. The Village is permitted by Article 7, Section 8

NOTE 11. FLORIDA RETIREMENT SYSTEM
Plan Description
All full time employees hired before January 1, 1996 are eligible to participate in the Florida
Retirement System (FRS), a cost sharing, multiple -employer, public retirement system
controlled by the State Legislature and administered by the State of Florida Department of
Administration, Division of Retirement. 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
statement and required supplementary information for the FRS. The latest available report
was for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001. That report may be obtained by writing to the

State of Florida Division of Retirement, Department of Management Services, 2639-C North
Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1560.
Funding Policy
Participating employers are required to make contributions based upon statewide contribution
rates. The contribution rates by job class for the Village's employees at September 30, 2001
were as follows: regular employees — 7.3%, special risk employees — 18.44% and senior
management — 9.28%. These rates include 1.11% for the employer Health Insurance Subsidy
contribution, which is the same for all risk classes.
The Village's contributions to the FRS for the fiscal years ended September 30, 1999, 2000
and 2001 were $302,071, $229,701 and $193,585, respectively, which were equal to the
required contributions for each fiscal year.
NOTE 12. VILLAGE EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM
The Village maintains a single -employer, defined benefit pension retirement system. The
retirement system provides benefits to all full time firefighters, as well as any full time police
officers or general employees hired January 1, 1996 or thereafter. In 1999, the Plan was
amended, establishing a separate plan for public safety officers (firefighters and police officers)
and a separate plan for general employees. The retirement system was established by the Village
and is administered by two separate Board of Trustees (public safety officers and general
employees). The retirement system receives contributions that may not be used to pay the
benefits of all employee classes. Due to this restriction, for financial statement purposes, three
separate plans are shown as pension trust funds. The Village Employees' Retirement System
administers the following plans: The Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund (FPTF), The Police
Officers' Pension Trust (PPTF) and the General Employees' Pension Trust Fund (GPTF). The
three pension trust funds do not issue stand alone financial statements and have been included in
the financial statements of the Village as pension trust funds.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Pension Trust Funds
Basis of Accounting
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.

NOTE 13. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
The Village offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The plan, available to all full time Village employees,
' permits them to defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is
not available to plan participants or their beneficiaries until termination, retirement, death or
unforeseeable emergency. The Village's Deferred Compensation Plan has funds held by the
ICMA Retirement Corporation.
In January 1998, the ICMA Deferred Compensation Plan was amended to conform with the
changes in the Internal Revenue Code brought about by the Small Business Job Protection Act of
1996 (the "Act"). The Act requires that eligible deferred compensation plans established and
maintained by governmental employees be amended to provide that all assets of the Plan be held
' in trust, or under one or more appropriate annuity contracts or custodial accounts, for the
exclusive benefit of plan participants and their beneficiaries. As a result of this change, plan
assets will no longer be subject to the claims of the Village's general creditors.
Because the Village has little administrative involvement and does not perform the investing
function for funds in the ICMA Plan, the Village's activities do not meet the criteria for
inclusion in the fiduciary funds of a government. Consequently, the Plan was removed from the
Village's general purpose financial statements.
NOTE 14. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Long -Term Agreement to Purchase Water
On July 15, 1976, the Village entered into an agreement with Tri-Southern Utilities
Company, Inc. (the agreement was subsequently assumed by the Town of Jupiter) to purchase
water for the Village's water system for a period of 30 years. Rates for water service are
based on wholesale rates. The Village is billed monthly based upon a 1,500,000 gallons per
day contracted minimum.
Lease Agreements
On December 20, 1994, the Village entered into an Interlocal agreement with Palm Bach
County. 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.
On December 6, 1996, the Village entered into a three year lease agreement to rent commercial
office space for the administrative, finance and water services staff. The base annual rent is
$47,132 adjusted annually for the Consumer Price Index. At the end of the three year lease, the
Village has the option to renew for three additional one year terms. On December 1, 1999, the
Village renewed the lease for an additional year with no change in base rent.

Contracted Services — Refuse and Recycling Collection
Effective October 1, 1989, the Village entered in a five year franchise agreement with
Nichols Sanitation, Inc. for curbside solid waste and recycling collection services. On
October 14, 1993, the Village amended the franchise agreement. The amendment extended
the agreement for an additional five years commencing October 1, 1994. For consideration of
the extension, the collection rates were reduced. In addition, the Village assessed a 6%
franchise fee for each residential customer, effective October 1, 1994. Nichols Sanitation
may also adjust the curbside and recycling rates beginning October 1, 1995, and each October
151 thereafter based upon the change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
Contracted Services — Fire/Emergency Medical Service
Effective October 1, 1993, the Village entered into an Interlocal agreement with Jupiter Inlet
Colony for the Village to provide fire protection/emergency medical services for a fee. For
the year ended September 30, 2001, fire protection fees received from Jupiter Inlet Colony

NOTE 15. CONTRIBUTED CAPITAL — ENTERPRISE FUNDS (Continued)
Transactions. Implementation of GASB No. 33 requires that current year effect of contributed
capital be accounted for as capital contributions as presented on the statement of revenues,
expenses, and changes in retained earnings.
r NOTE 16. 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. The Village continues to
r purchase commercial insurance coverage to cover the various risks. Retention of risks is limited to
those risks that are uninsurable and deductibles ranging from $250 to $10,000 per occurrence.
Major uninsurable risks include damages to infrastructure assets. Since the amount of loss
cannot be reasonably estimated and the likelihood of occurrence is not determinable, no
provision for losses is reflected in the financial statements. There were no settled claims which
rexceeded insurance coverage during the past three fiscal years.
The Village is insured under a retrospectively rated policy for workers' compensation coverage.
The plan is a trust fund comprised of local governmental entities. The premiums are based on
the risk class and remuneration of covered employees adjusted by an experience modification
based on the claims history of the Village. At the end of the premium year, the Village can
either receive a discount or pay an additional premium based on its claims experience. The
Policy for the current fiscal year has been finalized with no additional premium due. Should a
deficit develop in the trust fund after excess insurance recoveries, the Village shall thereafter be
Fresponsible for its individual costs.
NOTE 17. SEGMENT INFORMATION FOR ENTERPRISE FUNDS
The Village maintains four separate enterprise funds which provide water, stormwater, refuse

Report of Independent Certified Public Accountants on
Compliance and on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Based on an Audit of
Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards
Honorable Mayor, Village Commission and Village Manager
Village of Tequesta, Florida
We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the Village of Tequesta, Florida (the
Village) as of September 30, 2001 and for the year then ended, and have issued our report dated April 18,
2002. We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and the
standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States.
Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Village's financial statements are free of
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts and grants, 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 that are required to be reported under
Government Auditing Standards.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting;
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Village's internal control over financial
reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting.
However, we noted matters involving the internal control over financial reporting and its operation that
we consider to be reportable conditions. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention
relating to significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal control over financial
reporting that, in our judgment, could adversely affect the Village's ability to record, process,
summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions of management in the financial
statements.

A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal
control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that misstatements in amounts that
would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected
within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. Our
consideration of the internal controls over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters
in the internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses. However, we do not
believe that any of the reportable conditions described in the schedule of findings as Items 00-1 through
00-6 are material weaknesses.
In addition, we noted other matters involving the internal control over financial reporting that we have
reported to management in the accompanying schedule of findings.
This report is intended for the information and use of the Mayor, Village Commission, management and
the Auditor General of the State of Florida and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than the specified parties. However, this report is a matter of public record and its distribution is
not limited.

8. The Village was incorporated by Laws of Florida 57-1915.
9. During the course of our audit, we applied financial condition assessment procedures pursuant to

00-3 Cash/Bank Reconciliations
Bank reconciliations are an important internal control to be used by management to ensure that all cash
transactions are recorded in the accounting records and to safeguard assets from loss or misuses. To be
effective, the reconciliations need to be prepared on a timely basis with reconciling items being
investigated and resolved. During fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, bank reconciliations for some
of the cash accounts were not prepared until after fiscal year end and unreconciled differences were not
properly investigated and resolved. The bank reconciliations are not reviewed by supervisory personnel
of the finance department.
Recommendation
We recommend that bank reconciliations be prepared on a monthly basis and that unreconciled
differences be investigated and resolved. We also recommend that all reconciliations be reviewed by
supervisory personnel for accuracy.
Management Response
At the present time, all bank reconciliations are being prepared by a senior accountant and reviewed by
the appropriate supervisory personnel and all adjustments are being posted in a timely manner. General
ledger cash balances to bank balances are being reviewed on a daily basis. All reconciling items related
to prior periods have been resolved.
00-5 Proprietary Fund Fixed Assets
Fixed assets acquisitions of the proprietary funds were recorded to expense (capital outlay) accounts and
year end entries were necessary to properly capitalize these fixed assets.
Accounting personnel were not trained on the fixed assets program. The fixed asset accounting module
had not been fully updated to reflect the correct ending fixed asset balances and related depreciation.
Recommendation
We recommend the Village capitalize fixed assets used for proprietary activities and reconcile fixed asset
transfers between funds.
Management Response
1� The Village was unable to upgrade the fixed asset program until the software manufacturer completed
the upgrade. When the Village received the upgrade in January 2002, it was installed and staff received
in-house training. The staff will receive additional training as it becomes necessary and available.

SECTION I. PRIOR YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS AND STATUS (Continued)
00-9 Accounts Payable
We noted that invoices are not entered into the accounts payable module when received. The accounts
payable module is not used except when the Village pays invoices. Bills/invoices are entered on one day
and the invoices are paid the following day. As a result, common reports such as an accounts payable
aging ledger are unusable. Without entering invoices into the accounts payable module, invoices could
be paid late or not paid at all and not be detected by finance personnel.
Recommendation
The Village should enter invoices into the accounts payable module when received and utilize the
accounts payable module to manage payables and cash flow.
f
r
F
r
Management Response
At year end, accounts payable is processed every two weeks and all approved invoices are entered and
paid. Prior to all accounts payable runs, the A/P clerk informs the senior accountant of the amount
needed to pay all invoices and the senior accountant wires the required cash into the proper bank
accounts. With the exception of the days when payroll is processed, invoices are entered on a daily
basis.
00-11 Pension Accounting/Funding
We noted that information supplied to the actuary was not correct. Reconciliations between brokerage
statements and the Village's internal records were not performed until after fiscal year. Also, employee
pension contributions were not always made timely.
Recommendation
We recommend the Village record all pension transactions timely and perform reconciliations for all
pension transactions at the end of each month. Employee contributions should be made timely.
Management Response
The current staff identified mistakes that were made by the brokerage firm when they separated the
General Pension assets from the Police and Fire Pension assets. They noted that the assets were carried
forward at fair market value which resulted in gains and losses inaccurately presented on the brokerage
statements. The staff was unable to reconcile the statements until the brokerage firm corrected the
mistake. The account was corrected and all reconciliations were completed prior to the end of the
fieldwork. At year end, employee contributions are made timely along with the bi-weekly payroll.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS

SECTION II — CURRENT YEAR FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS
REPORTABLE CONDITIONS
01-1 Preparation of Books and Records
The Village's books and records were not closed and available for audit in a timely manner after fiscal
year end. Prudent business practice would dictate that the books and records be closed within a timely
period after each month as well as after fiscal year end (i.e. no later than 90 days after fiscal year end).
Numerous adjustments were posted to the accounting records during the audit and these adjustments
were necessary in order to fairly present the financial statements. Many of the adjustments were a result
of not performing timely reconciliations during the year.
Recommendation
We recommend that the Village examine the monthly general ledger activity in order to ensure that the
balances appear reasonable based on activities that occurred during the month. This will allow the
Village to monitor and correct transactions closer to when they occur. This would also reduce the
amount of year end reconciliation and would enable the Village close their books and records at fiscal
year end in a timely manner.
Management Response
The auditors were made aware when the were engaged that none of the current staff had been employed
by the Village for the entire year being audited. It was also explained in subsequent discussions that the
current staff would need additional time to close the books as they had to locate missing records and
correct many mistakes. With the present staff on board for an entire period, it is the Village's intention
to close the books and records on a more timely basis to ensure a timely audit for the year ending
September 30, 2002.
01-2 Payroll
The payroll per the Employee Earnings Report did not reconcile to the general ledger for fiscal year end
September 30, 2001. The Village has also received Internal Revenue Service (IRS) notices related to
various payroll matters including not making payroll tax payments timely, differences in reported
amounts to the IRS and Social Security Administration and in the amount paid. These matters related to
previous staff. These personnel are no longer employed by the Village.
Recommendation
We recommend that the Village reconcile the employee earnings report to the general ledger after each
payroll is issued. This will eliminate the need to reconcile payroll to the general ledger at fiscal year end.

01-2 Payroll (Continued)
Management Response
In November 2001, we received the Windows® version of payroll, installed it and sent staff to training
on it. This version will link to the general ledger when we receive the upgrade to the "betrieve" system
now running. We are waiting for server specifications from the software manufacturer to determine if
our present server will be able to handle the newer "pervasive" software. This new software will allow
us to implement controls that are not available to us at this time.
01-3 Check Sequencing of Payroll Checks
Based on our review of the payroll checks listing, we noted that the checks were not numerically
sequenced and the missing checks could not be located. For example, checks numbered 2650 to 2721, a
group of 71 checks, could not be located or accounted for. It did not appear that the missing check
numbers cleared on subsequent bank statements.
In addition, payroll checks that were recorded in the general ledger did not always match the check
-. number on the issued check.
Recommendation
{ In order to properly safeguard the Village's assets from loss or misuse, the Village should ensure that all
checks are properly sequenced and accounted for, and that each check number issued be properly
r recorded in the general ledger.
Management Response
No discrepancies in check sequences were noted after April 2001. The new staff corrected the problems
and no fraud or irregularities were detected.
01-4 Accounting Policies
The Village does not have an accounting manual that sets out its policies and procedures. In order to
ensure that all responsibilities of each finance position are delineated and that accounting procedures are
performed on a timely basis, we recommend that an accounting manual be prepared. The manual should
cover all procedures that need to be performed on a periodic basis including, but not limited to, month
end procedures such as bank reconciliations, general ledger account analysis, approval of journal entries,
etc.

'— 01-4 Accounting Policies (Continued)
Recommendation
A comprehensive review of the Village's existing accounting procedures, accompanied by the creation of
an accounting procedures manual will ensure consistent treatment for similar transactions and the
application of appropriate accounting principles, as well as aid in the training of new employees. In
addition, in the event that regular full-time staff are absent, the presence of such a manual could enable
the Village to continue processing transactions without major interruption.
One of the advantages of developing an accounting manual is that, in the course of its creation,
management may find itself reexamining workflow processes and take advantage of the opportunity to
re -engineer these work processes.
Management Response
Management agrees that the Village needs to develop an accounting procedures manual during the next
year. We have begun a finance department procedures manual and hope to incorporate these procedures
into a more comprehensive accounting procedures manual.
01-5 New Pronouncement
Government Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements — and
Managernent's Discussion and Analysis —for State and Local Governments, establishes new financial
reporting requirements for state and local governments throughout the United States. When
implemented, it will create new information and will restructure much of the information that
governments have presented in the past. These new requirements were developed to make annual
�. financial reports more comprehensive and easier to understand and use. The new reporting model will
include government -wide financial statements, as well as fund financial statements, as well as
management's discussion and analysis section. Implementation will be required for fiscal year ending
September 30, 2003. However, many of the reporting requirements need to be addressed several years
before the required implementation date.
Recommendation
We recommend that the Village review the new requirements and create an action for the
implementation of this new standard.
Management Response
The Village is aware of the new requirements and will be discussing the implementation with the present
auditing firm.

The Village is required to calculate annually whether or not an arbitrage liability exists at the end of the

Recommendation
The Village should engage a firm to compute the arbitrage rebate calculation and determine whether any
rebate liability exists.
