To the Citizens of the
Village of Tequesta, Florida
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Village of
Tequesta, Florida for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1990, is
hereby submitted. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the
data, and the completeness and fairness of the presentation,
including all disclosures, rests with the Village. To the best of
our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data are accurate in all
material respects and are reported in a manner designed to present
fairly the financial position and results of operations of the
various funds and account groups of the Village. All disclosures
necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the
Village's financial activities have been included.
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented in
three sections: introductory, financial and statistical. The
introductory section includes this transmittal letter, the
Village'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.
This report includes all funds and account groups of the
Village. The Village provides a full range of services. These
services include police protection; the construction and
maintenance of highways, streets and infrastructure; recreational
activities and cultural events; and the operation of a municipal
water supply system, in addition to general government activities.
The Village also contracts with Palm Beach County for fire-rescue
service, and a privately owned sanitation company for garbage and
refuse service.

ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OQTLOOE
The Village is located at the northeastern boundary 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, and the
economic condition and outlook of the governments growth potential
for the next decade is excellent. Dwq F'isQa~l Year .;190 the
Village adopted a preliminary plan for development of a "Town
Center Master Plan" for a 90-acre area located in the center of the
Village commercial business district. The plan provides for the
construction of residential, cultural and commercial building
within the area. Infrastructure improvements for the area, to
include roads and drainage, are proposed to be constructed by a
special taxing district. Infrastructure financing is anticipated
to be provided by the issuance of 20-year special assessment bonds.
Property values have increased an average of 10.8$ a year
during the past 5 years. The anticipated development of the Town
Center Master Plan should result in municipal property values
increasing at a substantially greater pace than recently
experienced.
Based on the historical data presented and current
projections, property tax values are expected to continue to
increase through this decade. Since infrastructure is in place to
accommodate the growth anticipated within the Village, significant
ad valorem tax increases during this period are not anticipated.
1dAJOR INITIATIOEB
The Village is continuing to address three specific areas of
concern:
Expansion of Transportation Corridors
Expansion of Potable Water Treatment Facilities
Expansion of Storm Water Drainage Facilities
Maintenance and expansion of the community's general
infrastructure (such as roads, bridges, sidewalks and storm water
drainage systems) remain a concern of the Village. 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.
2
This plan is revised each budget year. As a result of
projected revenue shortfalls anticipated for next year, projects
budgeted within the Capital Improvement Fund may be deferred to
offset such revenue shortfalls and enable the Village to maintain
adequate cash reserves and required fund balances.
During the year the construction phase of widening Tequesta
Drive, the main east-west thoroughfare within the Village, was
completed at a cost of $832,138. Ten percent construction
retainage and right-of-way condemnation and associated expenses
remain to be paid, such expenses are estimated to total $290,000.
Funding is available within the Capital Improvement Fund for these
remaining expenses. Other Capital Improvement Fund expenditures
included $13,535 for drainage improvements, $4,225 for landscape
signage improvements and $32,425 for pathway improvements.
Capital Outlay expenditures reported in the Proprietary Fund
for 1990 totaled $296,577. A summary of these expenditures is
reported below. During this fiscal period staff personnel devoted
a considerable amount of time to planning future water system
expansion projects and to the selection of a professional
engineering f irm for the design and construction phases of the
water department expansion program. Included in next year's budget
is $178,400 for relocation of water mains, $990,500 for four new
surficial aquifer wells and transmission lines and $750,000 for a
two million gallon above-ground water storage tank. The additional
storage tank will increase the water storage capacity to 3.75
million gallons.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION
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 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, the Village 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 Funds, Debt Service Fund, Capital Projects Fund and
Proprietary Fund 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 by function within each individual fund. The
government also maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one
technique of accomplishing budgetary control. Encumbered amounts
lapse at year end. However, encumbrances generally are 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, the Village continues to meet
its responsibility for sound financial management.

Taxes accounted for the most significant increase i n actual
revenues received for 1990. Tax revenues consi st of three distinct
resources: ad valorem property tax, franchise fees and utility
service taxes. The ad valorem property tax rate for 1990 was
6.1828 mills, an increase of 7.5$ over the previous year millage
rate of 5.7510 mills. Also, the Village taxable value increased
16.1$ over the previous year taxable value. These two factors are
responsible for the increase in tax revenues. The property tax
rate of 6.1828 mills is well within the ten mill rate limit imposed
by the State of Florida; moreover, the Village provided its
citizens garbage and refuse service and fire rescue service from ad
valorem property tax revenues. If the cost of these services were
removed from the Village's property tax rate, and billed
separately, as is the practice in most Florida municipalities, the
Village's property tax millage rate would have been reduced
$942,088 or 51.26$ to 3.0135 mills.
Intergovernmental revenues represents the second major source
of revenues and also ranked second in the amount of increased
revenues for 1990. Intergovernmental revenue sources consist of
State and County levied taxes, i.e., County half-cent sales tax,
County six cent gas tax, State excise tax on cigarette sales and
alcoholic beverage licenses fees and County and State grants and
reimbursements for qualifying projects. Of the $171,382 increase
in revenues, $144,447 was attributed to reimbursement from Palm
Beach County Government for County impact fees for the Tequesta
Drive Widening Improvement Project. A reimbursement from Palm
Beach County Government for E-911 emergency communication service
equipment accounted for $18,284, and the remaining $8,651 was the
resultant of revenue variances of the remaining sources of
revenues.

Significant increases reported for 1990 that warrant
discussion include capital outlay expenditures of the Capital
Improvement Fund, and operating expenditure increases within the
General Fund for Physical Environment, Public Safety and General
Government operations. The capital outlay increased expenditures
of 30.70$ or $207,273 is attributed to expenditures for the
Tequesta Drive Widening Project discussed previously in this
letter.
Physical Environment increased expenditures were the result of
a 38$ increase in refuse disposal tipping fees enacted by the
County Solid Waste Authority and a 4.5$ COLA adjustment required
per the government franchise agreement with Nichols Sanitation for
residential garbage/refuse service. As a result of the recent
increases associated with garbage/refuse and recycling services,
beginning next year residents will be billed for garbage/refuse and
recycling services by the Village and the County Solid Waste
Authority, which will result with the expenditures for such
services being removed from the General Fund operating expenses.
During 1990, the Village commenced its single family residential
recycling program at no charge to residents.
6
Public Safety increased expenditures of $337,324 or 24.30$
were attributed to an increase of $128,317 or 34$ for Fire Rescue
Services provided to the Village per a governmental contract with
the County Fire-Rescue Department. The remaining increase in
expenditures of $209,007 are the result of the addition of one
employee, (Deputy Building Official) within the Building Department
and increased employee expenses for COLA and merit pay adjustments
averaging 7.5$, increased employee retirement contributions of 13$
and an employee health insurance premium increase of 15$.
General Government increased expenditures of $122,598 or
22.32$ were attributed to capital outlay expenditures of $57,141
for County Road 707 Beautification Project, an increase in fees for
legal services of $22,677 and the balance of $42,780 was the result
of increased employee benefit expenses referred to previously.
General Fund Balances
The fund balance of the General Fund was $743,067 on
September 30, 1990, of this total $18,952 was designated for
encumbrances. The resultant cash position of $724,115 is more than
adequate to provide the capital resources necessary for government
operations. The likelihood of the government entering the short-
term debt market to pay for current operating expenditures is
highly remote.
Proprietary Operations
The Village's proprietary water operations are reported in the
Enterprise Fund. The Village potable water system consists of a
2.7 million gallon per day water treatment plant and a distribution
system of approximately 50 miles of water mains and water storage
facilities with a capacity of 1.75 million gallons. The Village
also purchases 1.5 million gallons of water per day, contracted
minimum, at wholesale rates, from the Town of Jupiter, Florida.
The current agreement extends through July 15, 2006.
During the last quarter of fiscal year 1989, the Village
Council adopted a tiered water consumption rate schedule to promote
water conservation within the areas serviced by the Village water
system. As shown in the following schedule, the tiered rate
schedule had the effect of reducing water consumption during 1990
by 99.416 million gallons or (10.34$), and the premium charged for
water sales, per the tiered rate schedule, produced increased
revenues of $76,007 or 4.10$.

Enterprise Fund Bonded Debt
On January 1, 1985, the Village issued $1,525,000 Water
Refunding ,Revenue Bonds. The bonds received Moody's AAA, and
Standard & Poor's AAA (MBIA) ratings. The bond sale proceeds were
used to refund Series 1978 Water Refunding Revenue Bonds. The
bonds are secured by the net revenues of the Enterprise Fund. On
September 30, 1990, $1,125,000 of the bonds remained outstanding.
Fiduciary Operations
The Village's fiduciary operations consist of an Agency Fund
used to account for investments held by the government as trustee
for employees participating in a deferred compensation plan
administered by the ICMA Retirement System.
8
Debt Administration
The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation
of resources for the payment of general long-term debt principal,
interest and related costs. The General Lonq-Term Debt Account
Group is used to account for long-term liabilities expected to be
financed from governmental funds. The government issued $910,000,
Series 1979 Improvement Revenue Bonds, on October 1, 1979, to
finance drainage improvements. The bonds received Moody's A and
Standard & Poor's AAA (MBIA) ratings. The bonds are secured by the
pledge of and first lien on the guaranteed entitlement portion of
the State revenue sharing trust funds and by the pledge of the
first lien on certain franchise fees, public service taxes and
occupational license taxes. On September 30, 1990, $680,000 of the
bonds remained outstanding.
The Village does not have a legal debt limitation. During the
current year, the Village did not issue any bonded debt. As of
September 30, 1990, the Village's net bonded debt was $552,083, the
ratio of net bonded debt to taxable value was 16$ and the net
bonded debt per capita was $122.71.
dash Manacrement
The Village maintains two pooled cash accounts known as the
general corporation investment account and the water enterprise
investment account. The equity of all funds comprising the
investment accounts is maintained at all times. Cash requirements
are constantly monitored and temporary idle cash is approved for
investment by the Village Manager upon recommendation from the
Finance Director. The investment policy of the Village is to
maximize its investments in high quality risk-free securities
authorized by State statutes, while maintaining a competitive yield
on its portfolio. Preference is also given for purchasing
investments with local financial institutions when comparable
interest rates are quoted.
The Village's investments for the current year consisted of
certificates of deposit ranging from 30 to 365 days, money market
accounts and deposits with the State Board of Administration -
Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Investment Pool.
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.
9
On September 30, 1990, investments held by the Village totaled
$4,083,361, which is detailed in Note 2, Notes to Financial
Statements. The average yield on investments maturing during the
year was 8.25$ and the average yield on money market investment
accounts was 5.25$.
~tisk Management
During 1990, the Village continued using third-party insurance
coverage for its Risk Management Program. Also during the year,
the government distributed MSDA - Material Safety Data Sheets, in
accordance with the 1986 Congressional Emergency Planning and
Community Right-to-Know Act, and regularly distributed a safety
newsletter to all its employees to assist in the prevention of
accident related losses. A detailed list of insurance in effect is
contained in the Schedule of Insurance section of this report.

AUDITOR'S REPORT FAX (107) iY612N
The Honorable Mayor and Village Council
Village of Tequesta
Tec~~xesta, Florida
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial
statements of the Village of Tequesta, Florida, as of September 30,
1990 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 generally accepted
auditing standards and 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 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, fn all material aspects, the financial
position of the Village of Tequesta, Florida, as of September 30,
1990, and the results of its operations and the cash flows of its
proprietary fund type for the year then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
15
P,s discussed in Note 21 to the financial statements, the Village of
Tequesta, Florida has presented a statement of cash flows for the
year ended September 30, 1990, rather than a statement of changes
in financial position.
We have also reviewed the accounting requirements of the bond
ordinances associated with both the Improvement Revenue Bonds,
Series 1979 and Water Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 1985,
relating to the benefits and application of funds. In our opinion,
based on our audit of the general purpose financial statements, the
Village has complied with such provisions. It should be noted that
information obtained on the basis of our audit of the general
purpose financial statements would not necessarily disclose
defaults of a nonaccountinq nature.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the
general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The
supplemental information 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 of Tequesta, Florida. Such information has been subjected

We did not examine the statistical data as set forth in the table

NOTB 1 - StT1~IARY OF BIQNIFICANT ACCOIINTINa POLICIES
The Re rting Entity
The Village of Tequesta is a municipal corporation organized under
the laws of the State of Florida. The Village's major operations
include public safety (police), streets and roads, culture and
recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, water service
and general and administrative.
In accordance with the provisions of Statement 3 issued by the
National Council on Governmental Accounting entitled, "Defining the
Governmental Reporting Entity," as endorsed by the Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GABS), the basic, but not the only,
criterion for including a potential component unit within the
reporting entity is the governing body's ability to exercise
oversight responsibility. The most significant manifestation is
financial interdependency. Other manifestations of the ability to
exercise oversight responsibility include, but are not limited to,
the selection of the governing authority, the designation of
management, the ability to significantly influence operations and
accounting for fiscal matters. A second criterion used in
evaluating potential component units is the scope of public
service. Application of this criterion involves considering
whether the activity benefits the government or its citizens, or
whether the activity is conducted within the geographic boundaries
of the government and is generally available to its citizens. A
third criterion used to evaluate potential component units for
inclusion or exclusion from the reporting entity is the existence
of special financing relationships, regardless of whether the
government exercises oversight responsibilities. Based upon
application of these criteria, the Village of Tequesta has
determined that there are no additional governmental departments,
agencies, institutions, commissions, public authorities or other
governmental organizations operating within the jurisdiction of the
Village that would be required to be included in the general
purpose financial statements of the Village.

Basis of Presentation - Fund Accounting
The accounts of the Village are organized on the basis of funds
and account groups, each of which is considered a separate
accounting entity. The operations of each fund axe accounted for
through a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise
its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures
or expenses as appropriate. An account group, on the other hand,
is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountabili-
ty for certain assets and liabilities that are not recorded in
funds because they do not directly affect net expendable avail-
able financial resources.
The following are the fund categories, funds and account groups
used by the Village:
Governmental Fund Types
General Fund
The General Fund is the general operating fund of the
Village. It is used to account for all financial resources
except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Fund
The Special Revenue Fund is used to account for specific
revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditure for
specified purposes. The Special Revenue Fund of the Village
accumulates all franchise fees, utility taxes, state revenue
sharing and occupational licenses as required by the Improve-
ment Revenue Bonds, Series 1979.

Debt Service Fund
The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation
of resources for, and the payment of, long-term debt princi-
pal, interest, and related costs. The Debt Service Fund of
the Village accumulates monies for payment of the Improvement
Revenue Bonds, Series 1979.
Capital Projects Fund
The Capital Projects Fund is 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 Proprietary Fund).
Proprietary Fund Tyne
Enterprise Fund
The Enterprise Fund is used to account for operations that are
financed and operated fn 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 services to the general public on a continuing basis
be financed or recovered primarily through user charges. The
Enterprise Fund of the Village is the Water Fund which
accounts for the provision of water services to the residents
of the Village and some residents of the County. All activi-
ties necessary to provide such services are accounted for in
this fund including, but not limited to, administration,
operations, maintenance, financing and related debt service
and billing and collection.

Proprietary Fund Tvve (Continued)
Enterprise Fund (Continued)
The proprietary fund is accounted for on a cost of services or
"capital maintenance" measurement focus. This means that all
assets and all liabilities (whether current or noncurrent)
associated with its activity are included on its balance
sheet. The reported fund equity (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.
Depreciation of all exhaustible fixed assets used by the
proprietary fund is charged as expense against the opera-
tions. Accumulated depreciation is reported on the propri-
etary fund balance sheet. Depreciation has been provided over
the estimated useful lives using the straight-line method.
The estimated useful lives are as follows:
Buildings 40 years
Improvements 20 - 25 years
Equipment 4 - 10 years

Agency Fund
The Agency Fund is used to account for assets held by the
Village in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individ-
uals. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal
liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of
operations.

measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted
for on a spending or "financial flow" measurement focus.
This means that only current assets and current liabili-
ties are generally included on their balance sheets.
Their reported fund balance (net current assets) is
considered a measure of "available spendable resources."
Governmental fund operating statements present increases
(revenues and other financing sources) and decreases
(expenditures and other financing uses) in net current
assets. Accordingly, they are said to present a summary
of sources and uses of "available spendable resources"
during a period.
Fixed assets used in governmental fund type operations
(general fixed assets) are accounted for in the General
Fixed Assets Account Group, rather than in governmental
funds .
Public domain ("infrastructure") general fixed assets
consisting of certain improvements other than buildings,
including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and
sidewalks, drainage systems, and light systems, are not
capitalized. No depreciation has been provided on
general f fixed assets. All fixed assets are valued at
historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual
historical cost is not available. Donated fixed assets
are valued at their estimated fair market value on the
date donated.

Account Groups (Continued)
General Long-Term Debt Account Group
Long-term liabilities expected to be financed from
governmental funds are accounted for in the General
Long-Term Debt Group, not in the governmental funds.
Because of their spending measurement focus, expenditure
recognition for governmental fund types is limited to exclude
amounts represented by noncurrent liabilities. Since they do
not affect net current assets, such long-term debt amounts are
not recognized as governmental fund type expenditures or fund
liabilities. They are instead reported as liabilities in the
General Long-Term Debt Account Group.
The two account groups are not "funds". They are concerned only
with the measurement of financial position. They are not involved
with measurement of results of operations.
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or ex-
penses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial
statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the mea-
surements made, regardless of the measurement focus applied.
All governmental funds are accounted for using the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they
become measurable and available as net current assets.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual
basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred.
An exception to this general rule includes principal and interest
on general long-term debt which is recognized when due.

The Total columns on the combined statements are captioned
"Memorandum Only" to indicate that they are presented only to
facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not
present financial position, results of operations, or changes in

principles. Neither is such data comparable to a consolidation.
Interfund eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of

ets end Budvetarv Accountin
Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control
device during the year for the General Fund, Special Revenue Fund,
Debt Service Fund and Capital Projects Fund. The Finance Depart-
ment also maintains control over expenditures of the debt service
fund through the use of bond indenture provisions.
Budgets for the General, Special Revenue, Debt Service and Capital
Projects Funds 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 1, the Village Manager submits to the
Village Council a proposed operating budget for the
fiscal year commencing the following October 1. The
operating budget includes proposed expenditures and the
means of financing them.

Changes or amendments to the total budgeted expenditures of the
Village total departmental expenditures must be approved by the
Village Council. 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.. Appropriations are legally
controlled at the departmental level within funds and expenditures
may not legally exceed budgeted appropriations at that level.
On May 10, 1990, the Village adopted a resolution providing for
supplemental appropriation increases. Budget amounts as amended
are reflected in the general purpose financial statements.
The Village has complied with the Florida requirement that budgets
be in balance. The General Fund, Special Revenue, Debt Service
Fund and Capital Projects Fund budgets reflected in the accompany-
ing financial statements are not balanced because they do not
include amounts budgeted from the beginning fund balance.
A budget for operating expenses of the Enterprise Fund (Water Fund)
is also legally adopted on a basis consistent with generally
accepted accounting principles in accordance with requirements of
Ordinance 260-Water Refunding Revenue Bonds, Series 1985.
Appropriations lapse at the end of the fiscal year.
Encumbrance accounting is used for purposes of budgetary control.
Encumbrances outstanding at year end are reported as reservations
of fund balances until expended or accrued as a liability of the
fund.

Investments, consisting of U.S. treasury obligations and funds held
with the state investment pool are stated at cost or amortized
cost, which approximates market. Assets of Internal Revenue Code
Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plan are reported at market
value.
Inventories
Inventories are valued at cost (first-in, first-out) or market.
Inventories in the General Fund consist of expendable supplies held
for consumption. The cost is recorded as an expenditure at the
time individual inventory items are purchased. Reported invento-
ries are equally offset by a fund balance reserve which indicates
that they do not constitute "available spendable resources" even
though they are a component of net current assets.
Amortization
The issue costs and debt discount on long-term debt are amortized
over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method.
Ad Valorem Taxes
Ad valorem taxes are assessed as of January 1 and billed
the following October. They are due and payable on
November 1 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 30, unpaid delinquent
taxes, if any, are reflected as a receivable on the

Intergovernmental Revenue
Intergovernmental revenues are reported under the legal
and contractual requirements of the individual programs.
In certain programs, such as State Revenue Sharing,
revenue is recognized when it is measurable and avail-
able.
Other Revenues
Other revenues, such as franchise fees and utility taxes,
licenses and permits, charges for services, fines and
forfeits, and miscellaneous revenues are recognized when
received in cash because they generally are not measur-
able until then. Investment income is recognized when
earned at which time it is considered measurable and

Transactions to transfer revenue or contributions from
the fund budgeted to receive them to the fund budgeted to
expend them. These transactions are recorded as operat-

At year end, the carrying amount of the Village's deposits was
$916,004 and the bank balance was $860,100. Cash consists of
unrestricted and restricted funds entirely covered by federal
depository insurance or by a multiple financial institution
collateral pool that insures public deposits. The collateral pool
exists pursuant to the Florida Security for Deposits Act, Chap-
ter 280, which consists of assets pledged to the State Treasurer by
financial institutions that comply with the requirements of Florida
Statutes and have been thereby designated as a qualified public
depository. These deposits are deemed to be insured for risk
categorization purposes.

Florida statutes authorize the Village to invest the Local
Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund administered by the State
Treasurer; negotiable direct obligations of or obligations
unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Government; interest-bearing
time deposits in financial institutions located in Florida and
organized under Federal or Florida laws; obligations of the Federal
Farm Credit Banks, the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, the
Federal Home Loan Bank or its district banks, or obligations
guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association and
obligations of the Federal National Mortgage Association.
Investments (including restricted investments) consist of funds
held with the state investment pool, obligations of the United
States government and amounts held by the Village's agent in a
deferred compensation plan. The government held funds during the
year in interest-bearing time deposits which were entirely covered
by federal depository insurance or by a multiple financial
institution collateral pool.
Obligations of the United States government are guaranteed and held
by a qualified public depository. The Village is obligated by its
Water Refunding Revenue Bond issue, Series 1985, to purchase U.S.
Treasury Obligations. The treasury bonds are recorded net of
unamortized discount of $27,482.
The Village's Deferred Compensation plan has funds held by ICMA
Retirement Corporation. The plan has been approved by the IRS and
complies fully with all Federal regulations. Funds withheld from
employees are invested in a Guaranteed Fund which provides
contracts guaranteeing both protection of principal and a rate of
return for a-specific period of time and protection from default by
underwriters. Funds are invested at the discretion of individual
plan participants.
The Village's investments are categorized as either (1) insured or
registered or for which the securities are held by the Village or
its agent in the Village's name, (2) uninsured and unregistered for
which the securities are held by the financial institution's trust
department or agent in the Village's name, or (3) uninsured and

All Village full-time employees participate in the noncontributory
Florida Retirement System, a cost-sharing multiple-employer public
employee retirement system. The payroll for employees covered by
the System for the year ended September 30, 1990 was $1,340,747,
which is also the total payroll for the Village.
All Village full-time employees are eligible to participate in the
System as authorized by Chapter 121 of the Florida Statutes. The
Florida Retirement System has five classes of membership. Village
employees belong to three of the five classes, the senior
management service class (Village Manager), the regular class
consisting of administrative, operations and clerical employees,
and the special risk class consisting of law enforcement officers.
Employees who retire at or after age 62 with 10 years of credited
service are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for
life, equal to 2.0$ (senior management class), 1.60 to 1.68$
(regular class) and 2.2 to 3.0~ (special risk class) of their
average final compensation for each year of credited service,
depending on the years served. Average final compensation is the
employee's average of the five highest years of credited service,
depending on the years served. Average final compensation is the
employee's average of the five highest years of credited service.
Benefits fully vest on reaching 10 years of service. Vested
employees may retire at or after age 55 and receive reduced
retirement benefits. The System also provides death and disability
benefits. Benefits are established by State statute.
The Village's actuarially determined contribution requirement for
the year ended September 30, 1990 was $223,627. The actual
contribution made was $223,627 (General Fund $185,110, Enterprise
Fund $38,517). The contribution equaled 16.68$ of current covered
payroll. The Village is required by statute to contribute at rates
as of September 30, 1990 of 16.04 of covered payroll for senior
management, 14.66 of covered payroll for regular class and 19.90
for special risk class. Because this is a non-contributory plan,
no employee contributions are required.

!IO"PB 6 - DElINBD BBNBFIT PENSION PLAN (Continued)
The "pension benefit obligation" is a standardized disclosure
measure of the present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the
effects of projected salary increases and step-rate benefits,
estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee
service to date. The measure, which is the actuarial present value
of credited projected benefits, is intended to help users assess
the System's funding status on a going-concern basis, assess
progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits
when due, and make comparisons among PERS and employers. The
System does not make separate measurements of assets and pension
benefit obligation for individual employers. The pension benefit
obligation at July 1, 1989 (the latest available information) for
the System as a whole, determined through an actuarial valuation
performed as of July 1, 1989, was $27.4 billion. The System's net
assets available for benefits on that date (valued at market) were
$17.6 billion, leaving an unfunded pension benefit obligation of
$9.8 billion. The total current-year actuarially determined
contribution requirement for all employers is not available.
Ten-year historical trend information showing the System's progress
in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due is pre-
sented in the System's June 30, 1988 comprehensive annual financial
report.
The Village offers its employees a deferred compensation plan
created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The
plan, available to all Village employees, permits them to defer a
portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensa-
tion is not available to employees until termination, retirement,
death, or unforeseeable emergency.
All amounts of compensation deferred under the plan, all property
and rights purchased with those amounts, and all income attribut-
able to those amounts, property, or rights are (until paid or made
available to the employee or other beneficiary) solely the property
and rights of the Village (without being restricted to the
provisions of benefits under the plan), subject only to the claims
of the Village's general creditors. Participants' rights under the
plan are equal to those of general creditors of the Village in an
amount equal to the fair market value of,the deferred account for
each participant.

~OTB 7 - DEF8RR8D COMPENSATION PLAN (Continued)
It is the opinion of the Village that it has no liability for
losses under the plan but does have the duty of due care that would
be required of an ordinary prudent investor. The Village believes
that is unlikely that it will use the assets to satisfy the claims
of general creditors in the future.
In accordance with Statement 4 of the National Council on Govern-
mental Accounting, vacation pay and sick pay are recorded when
earned by employees. As of September 30, 1990, the total liability
for compensated absences was $105,027. The current liability in
the General Fund was $20,000. The noncurrent portion of
compensated absence liability of the General Fund is recorded in
the Long-Term Debt Group. For the fiscal year ended September 30,
1990, the long-term amount was $76,227. The liability recorded by
the Enterprise Fund was $8,800.
The Village presently has no material lease commitments. In addi-
tion, the Village has no commitments under lease purchase or
similar contractual arrangements.

Debt issue expense and bond discount on the Water Refunding Revenue
Bonds, Series 1985, are being amortized over the life of the bonds.
This debt consists of Improvement Revenue Bonds Series 1979, dated
October 1, 1979, in the amount of $910,000 with interest rates
ranging from 8.30$ to 8.50$. Resolution 10-78/79 provided for the
creation of a special fund known as the Improvement Bond Revenue
Fund (Revenue Fund). Pledged funds to be deposited in the Revenue
Fund are the guaranteed entitlement portion of state revenue
sharing trust funds, public service utilities taxes, franchise fees
and occupational license taxes. At September 30, 1990, $680,000 of
this issue, which consists of term and serial bonds, were
outstanding. The disposition of monies in the Revenue Fund are
first to the Improvement Bond Sinking Fund (Debt Service Fund) in
the amount of the required principal and interest payments. A
reserve account was established in the Debt Service Fund to provide
for the maximum debt service requirement in any fiscal year. This
account is fully funded as of September 30, 1990. Finally, any

Encumbrances at September 30, 1990 were $246,692.
During the fiscal year, the Village obtained abandonment permits
from the South Florida Water Management District for the
abandonment of nine wells no longer in use by the water system.
The loss from the abandonment of the wells was $207,283.
bOTE 20 - LIRIGHRION
The Village is involved in right-of-way property acquisitions
pending as of September 30, 1990. While the appraised values of
the property was paid to the court pending settlement, it is
estimated that the possibility of additional exposure is
approximately $38,000. Accordingly, $38,000 has been appropriated
in the capital improvement fund for fiscal year 1990/91. The
Village does not anticipate any liabilities in excess of the
funding available.
The Village, in accordance with the normal conduct of its affairs,
is involved in various other judgments, claims and litigations. It
is expected that the final settlement of these matters will not
materially affect the financial statements of the Village.
ZiOTB 21 - PR88ENTATION
StAt~mEan Of CHStI F10WS
Pursuant to Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement
No. 9, the Village presented a statement of cash flows in place of
the statement of changes in financial position.
Prior year financial statements previously reported the special
revenue fund as a part of the general fund. Although the fund is
not material to the financial statements as a whole, it was
determined by management that separate disclosure is a more
meaningful presentation.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL'~P"°"E'`°>,°°°'se'2
FAX 14071998-8248
STRUCTURE RELATED MATTERS NOTED IN A FINANCIAL
STATEMENT AUDIT CONDUCTED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
The Honorable Mayor and Village Council
Village of Tequesta, Florida
We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the
Village of Tequesta, Florida, as of and for the year ended
September 30, 1990 and have issued our report thereon dated
November 26, 1990.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards and 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.
In planning and performing our audit of the general purpose
financial statements of the Village of Tequesta, Florida for the
year ended September 30, 1990, we considered its internal control
structure in order to determine our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the general purpose financial
statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control
structure.
The management of the Village of Tequesta, Florida is responsible
for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. The
objectives of an internal control structure are to provide
management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets
are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition,
and that transactions are executed in accordance with management's
authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of
general purpose financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
98
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure,
errors or irregularities may nevertheless occur and not be
detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of the structure to
future periods is subject to the risk that procedures may become
inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the
effectiveness of the design and operation of policies and
procedures may deteriorate.
For the purpose of this report, we have classified the significant
internal control structure policies and procedures in the following
categories:
Cash
Investments
Inventory
Revenue, receivables and receipts
Expenditures for goods and services and accounts payable
Property, equipment and capital expenditures
Debt and debt service expenditures
Fund equities
Payroll and related liabilities
For all of the control categories listed above, we obtained an
understanding of the design of relevant policies and procedures and
whether they have been placed in operation, and we assessed control
risk.
Under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants, reportable conditions involve matters coming to
our attention relating to significant deficiencies in the design or
operation of the internal control structure that, in our judgment,
could adversely affect the entity's ability to record, process,
summarize, and report financial data consistent with the assertions
of management in the general purpose financial statements.
A material weakness is a reportable condition in-which the design
or operation of one or more of the specific internal control
structure elements does not reduce to a relatively low level the
risk that errors or irregularities 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 control structure would not
necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure
that might be reportable conditions and accordingly, would not
necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also
considered to be material weaknesses as defined above.
99
We noted, however, certain matters involving the internal control
structure and its operation that we consider to be reportable
conditions, and which we believe to be material weaknesses:
Segregation of Duties
There is inadequate separation of duties in all the
control cycles. The basic premise is that no one
employee should have access to both physical assets and
the related accounting records or to all phases of a
transaction.
Our recommendations regarding the above condition, as well as other
matters involving the internal control structure and its operations
we noted, have been reported to the management of the Village of
Tequesta, Florida and are contained in Appendix A.
This report is intended for the information of management and
Village Council. This restriction is not intended to limit the
distribution of this report, which is a matter of public record.

LAWS AND REGULATIONS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF
FINANCIAL STATIIrIENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS ISSUED BY THE GAO
The Honorable Mayor and Village Council
Village of Tequesta, Florida
We have audited the general purpose financial statements of the
Village of Tequesta, Florida as of and for the year ended
September 30, 1990, and have issued our report thereon dated
November 26, 1990.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards and 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.
Compliance with laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable
to the Village of Tequesta, Florida is the responsibility of the
Village's management. As part of obtaining reasonable assurance
about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of
material misstatement, we performed tests of the Village's
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts,
and grants. However, it should be noted that our objective was not
to provide an opinion on overall compliance with such provisions.
The results of our tests indicate that, with respect to the items
tested, the Village of Tequesta, Florida complied, in all material
respects, with the provisions referred to in the preceding
paragraph. With respect to items not tested, nothing came to our
attention that caused us to believe that the Village of Tequesta,
Florida had not complied, in all material respects, with those
provisions.
101
We noted certain immaterial instances of noncompliance that we have
reported to the management of the Village of Tequesta, Florida, and
are contained in Appendix A.
This report is intended for the information of management and
Village Council. This restriction is not intended to limit the

~RTOR YEAR COMIrIENTB 118ICH CONTINIIE TO APPLY
~gg~gation of Duties
There is inadequate separation of duties in all the control
cycles. The basic premise is that no one employee should have
access to both physical assets and the related accounting
records or to all phases of a transaction.
Although the limited number of personnel in the Village's
accounting staff limits the extent of separation of duties,
procedures can be performed to compensate for this weakness.
A responsible official or employee not involved in the
accounting functions should periodically perform tests on a
sample basis to determine if the accounting procedures of the
various control cycles are being carried out in compliance
with prescribed standards.
Accounts Receivable
There is an improper cutoff of accounts receivable collections
in the water department.
We recommend that all cash received be recorded as of the date
received.

An audit trail of water department transactions is weak or
nonexistent due to computer reporting capabilities. Entries
required in the general ledger are not posted monthly because
of a lack of information provided by the computer system.
We recommend the following steps be taken to improve the
accounting for water department transactions:
1. Change the computer program so that both debit and credit
entries post to general ledger control accounts.
2. Properly record transactions relating to meter deposits
applied.
3. Develop written procedures for all phases of the water
department transactions (water department and finance
department).
4. Reconcile accounts receivable and meter deposit subsidiary
ledgers to the general ledger on a monthly basis.
