To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council and the City Manager
of the City of Lodi:
JENNIFER FERRAIOLO
City Clerk
JANICE MAGDICH
City Attorney
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the year ended June 30, 2015, is hereby submitted. This report is provided to present the
financial position, changes in financial position, and where applicable, cash flows of the City of Lodi (City) as of and for the year ended June 30,
2015, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The report conforms to the highest
standards of financial reporting as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB), for reporting by State and local
governments. The responsibility for the accuracy, fairness and completeness of the report rests with the City.
This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility
for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations,
management of the City has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed to protect the City's assets from loss, theft, or
misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City's financial statements in conformity with GAAP. We believe that
the information is accurate in all material respects, and that it is presented in a manner designed to fairly present the financial position and changes
in financial position of the City. In addition, we believe that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain a full understanding of the City's
financial activities have been included.
This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) and should be read in conjunction with it.
The MD&A can be found immediately following the independent auditor's report.
THE REPORTING ENTITY AND SERVICES PROVIDED
The funds included in the CAFR are those deemed dependent upon the City and controlled by the City Council and reflect the City's financial
reporting entity in accordance with GASB Statement No.14, as amended by GASB Statement No. 61.
The City was incorporated December 6, 1906, as a municipal corporation under the general laws of the State of California. The City operates under
a Council -Manager form of government. Under the Council -Manager form of government, policy making and legislative authority are entrusted to
the City Council. The City Council consists of five members elected at -large by its voters for four-year terms, with no term limits. Elections are held
v
in November of even -numbered years. Each year the Mayor and Mayor Pro -Tempore are chosen by the members of the City Council. The Mayor
presides at Council meetings and acts as the ceremonial head of the City, the Mayor Pro Tempore serves as Mayor in his or her absence. The City
Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for appointing department heads, and overseeing the
operations of the City. The City Manager, City Attorney and the City Clerk are appointed by the City Council.
The City provides a wide range of municipal services including public safety (police, fire and graffiti abatement), public utilities services (electric,
water and wastewater), transportation services (streets, flood control and transit) leisure, cultural and social services (parks and recreation, library
and community center), and general government services (management, community development, human resources administration, financial
administration, building maintenance and equipment maintenance).
Several municipal services are provided through other government agencies, private companies or public utility companies, including:
Number of
Facilities
Elementary and Secondary Schools 18
Sanitation (solid waste) and Cable Television 3
Ambulance 1
Gas and Telephone 2
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
The City is located in the San Joaquin Valley between Stockton, 10 miles to the south, and Sacramento, 35 miles to the north, and adjacent to U.S.
Highway 99. The City population is 63,719 and is contained in an area of 13.98 square miles. The City has grown steadily since incorporation in
1906. The City's growth is provided for in both the General Plan and the City's growth control ordinance that allows an increase in population of 2%
per year until the growth limits are reached.
The City is built on a strong and broad based local economy. The City is known for its Zinfandel wine. It is an authentic dynamic wine region with
over 80 wineries within 10 miles of downtown. The employment base is diversified with food processing, packaging, plastic and service industries.
In addition, the City has a wide range of small, financially sound businesses that add to the economic strength of the City. These companies range
in size from 10 to 150 employees and produce a wide variety of products, services and commodities.
Over the past several years, there has been an increase in industrial and residential development that has been unprecedented since the early
1980s. This new development combined with the growing strength of the wine/grape industry is a positive indicator for the City. The City's focus on
economic development has encouraged numerous big industries to move to the City that collectively created hundreds of new jobs.
vi
Economic Development
The City continues to be committed to promoting economic development (business retention and attraction) and expanding the tax base to fund City
services rather than increase taxes to pay for these services. The City has provided for additional retail sales and commercial activity with approval
of new retail developments adjacent to Highway 99 and Harney Lane in the southeast corner of the City, and with a large retail development in the
southwest corner of the City. The City is also committed to an Enterprise Zone with San Joaquin County.
MAJOR GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND PROJECTS
To assist the citizens of the City in understanding where the City intends to allocate available resources, the City Council, the City Manager and
Department Heads established in 2004 a hierarchy of major aspirational goals, objectives and major projects that support and re -enforce the City's
mission statement. Council then set project specific goals at a series of workshops in 2015.
1). Aspirational Goals
Four major City goals were established as policy direction and focal points for the efforts of City staff. These goals include:
Ensure a High Quality of Life and a Safe Environment for Citizens
Ensure Efficient and Productive City Organization
Ensure Public Trust, and
Ensure the Development of the Lodi Economy for a Fiscally Sound City Organization
City Council, the City Manager and Department Heads established nineteen major City objectives:
Maintain City's Sense of Community
Provide for a Balanced Community
Enhance Access through Implementation of Information Systems Strategic Plan
Promote Urban Forestry
Attract, Retain and Invest in a Quality City Work Force
Encourage Public Arts, Cultural and Recreational Opportunities
Provide Appropriate and Sufficient City Facilities
Develop Short and Long Range Operational Plans
Develop Effective Records Management Program
Promote Commercial/Industrial Base
2). Project Specific Goals
Provide Employee Training and Education
Evaluate Telecommunications Opportunities
Provide Resources to Maintain City's Infrastructure
Promote Public Relations and Marketing Efforts
Ensure Open and Accessible Public Meetings
Pursue Efforts to be Entrepreneurial
Improve Customer Service
Continue to use Partnerships to Advance City's Objectives
Provide a Balanced Budget and Adhere to Adopted Policies
Projects represent the foundation of the planning statements for the City. These projects are designed to accomplish specific objectives and
become the focus for organization -wide effort. Council set the following priorities and categories in 2015:
Economic development for "shovel ready" land
Economic development and incentive program to focus on underutilized parcels
Public Safety, Gang Reduction Intervention Program, training and increase in staffing
vii
Fiscal sustainability, asset preservation, CALPERS and Other Post -Employment Benefits
East side rehabilitation, incentive programs and infrastructure
Additional priorities that did not fit into the above categories include 1) addressing homelessness issues, 2) providing downtown Wi-Fi and music
and 3) beautification of highway overpasses.
As discussed above, economic revitalization continued to be an active focal point of the City in 2014-15. The following projects are underway and
will see significant progress or be completed in 2014 or 2015.
Fire Station #2
The City awarded a $4.2 million construction contract in August 2014 for building a replacement for the existing Fire Station #2. Construction is
substantially complete and the new building will be occupied in January 2016.
Lodi Shopping Center
The Lodi Shopping Center development in the southwestern corner of the City has cleared all legal hurdles and is currently under construction.
Anchored by a WalMart supercenter, the site will encompass 12 building pads and approximately 340,000 square feet of retail space. Construction
began on the main building and a number of smaller pads in 2015.
Reynolds Ranch
Reynolds Ranch is a planned development on the south eastern edge of the city that will eventually incorporate residential and commercial
development. Development continues with additional retail space completed in 2014 and 2015. Construction continues on a number of pads and
tenants should be in place in 2016. Build -out of the commercial space will occur over the next 10 years.
Residential Development
The City has five residential development projects that have been approved and total about 1,100 dwelling units. Dwelling units are fairly evenly
divided among low, medium and high density units. Sales in one of the five projects are ongoing in 2015. Construction is expected in two of the
remaining four projects in the coming year.
Water Meters and Water Infrastructure
Under state law, all residential housing must be billed for water usage on a metered basis by 2025. The City has embarked on a program to install
meters on approximately 14,000 parcels over an eight year period. A portion of this project will also include moving mains and service connections
from alleys and rear yards to streets and front yards. Additionally, the City will be appropriately sizing water mains as part of this project.
Construction began during FY 2009-10 and will continue through FY 2017-18. To date, approximately 10,900 meters have been installed.
Estimated cost for the complete program is $42.5 million.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION, MANAGEMENT AND CONTROL
A detailed understanding of the financial position and change in financial position of the City is provided in the following sections of this report. The
following is a brief description of the City's financial condition, management practices and control techniques.
viii
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to the policy as to when revenues, expenditures or expenses are recognized in the financial accounts and reported in the
financial statements. The City's accounting records for general government operations are maintained on a modified accrual basis. Revenues are
recorded when available and measurable. Expenditures are recorded when the services or goods are received and the liability incurred. For
proprietary fund types, the City uses the accrual basis of accounting. As such, the measurement focus is on operating income in addition to
financial position and changes in financial position. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized as the liability is incurred.
We believe that the City's internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording of
financial transactions.
Accounting System and Budgetary Control
In developing the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of the internal controls. The objective of the City's internal
accounting controls is to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that the assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition; and to ensure that transactions are properly recorded to permit the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. The
concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of the controls should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and that estimates and
judgments are required to be made by management in evaluating these costs and benefits.
In addition, the City maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the
annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. The City Manager is responsible for the preparation of the budget and its implementation
after adoption. The City Council has the authority to amend the budget at any time during the year. The City Manager has the authority to make
adjustments to the budget as long as those changes will not have a significant policy impact nor affect budgeted year-end fund balances. During
fiscal year 2014-15, the City Council and City Manager made several supplemental appropriations for operating budgets and capital projects.
Fund Balance
It is the City's goal to target and maintain an unassigned fund balance in the General Fund of at least 16% of revenues and working capital balances
in the Water and Wastewater enterprise funds, and at least 25% of operating expenses. Based on a reserve policy adopted in March 2014, the
target for the Electric enterprise fund working capital is $23.7 million for fiscal year 2014-15. The goals allow for variations from year-to-year to
account for economic and fiscal changes. The General Fund maintained an unassigned fund balance of $12,107,040 or 28.65%, of revenues at the
end of fiscal year 2014-15.
Cash Management
The City has written investment policies that address a wide range of investments. These policies describe the City's investment objectives,
investment authority, allowable investment vehicles, maturity terms and eligible financial institutions. They also describe the City's capital
preservation and cash management objectives. As provided in the policy, investments are intended to be held until maturity and investment terms
are to be consistent with the City's cash flow needs. Investment reports are issued quarterly to the City Manager and City Council to provide
detailed information regarding the City's investments and compliance with City policy and state law. An important objective of the City's investment
policy is to achieve a reasonable rate of return on public funds while minimizing risks and preserving capital. In evaluating the performance of the
City's investment portfolio, investments are expected to yield a rate of return that regularly meets or exceeds an average rate of return on a three-
month U.S. Treasury Bill.
ix
Appropriation Limitation
Article XIII B of the Constitution of the State of California (Proposition 4) provides for the limitation of expenditures by state and local governments.
Under the provisions of this article, City appropriations funded through tax sources may not exceed Fiscal Year 1979 appropriation levels except as
adjusted for increases in population and the growth in the California per capita income or non-residential assessed valuation due to new
construction within the City.
Excluded from the limitation are appropriations funded through charges for services, fines and forfeitures, grants, transfers of service responsibilities
between government agencies and indebtedness incurred prior to Fiscal Year 1979. Pursuant to subsequent legislation adopted after Article XIII B,
the City is required to annually establish and adopt its appropriations limit by resolution. For 2014-15, the City's appropriations subject to limit were
$34,129,895 and the appropriation limit was $86,477,897, leaving appropriations at $52,348,002 below the limit.
Debt Administration
At June 30, 2015, the City had outstanding Certificates of Participation and Revenue Bonds of $169,717,617. These liabilities are discussed in Note
8 of the Basic Financial Statements and summarized below.
In 1999, the Electric Utility issued $43.96 million Certificates of Participation to finance the costs of certain improvements to the distribution and
transmission facilities of the City's electric system. These bonds were refunded by the issuance of the 2002 Electric Systems Revenue Certificates
of Participation. The 2002 bonds were refunded with the 2008 Electric Systems Revenue Certificates of Participation thereby eliminating a variable
rate obligation.
In 2004, the City issued $27,360,000 in Wastewater Certificates of Participation (2004A) to finance the costs of improvements to the wastewater
collection, treatment and disposal system. These bonds were partially refunded with the 2012 Refunding Wastewater Revenue Bonds, Series A.
In 2007, the City issued $30,320,000 in Wastewater Certificates of Participation (2007A) to finance Phase III of the wastewater improvements and to
refund the 1991 Certificates of Participation.
On July 24, 2008, the City issued the $60,685,000 2008 Electric System Revenue Certificates of Participation to provide funds to currently refund
the outstanding $46,760,000 principal amount of the Electric System Revenue Certificates of Participation 2002 Series A Variable Rates Certificates
(the "Refunded 2002 Certificates"); and to pay certain costs relating to the termination of a swap agreement relating to the Refunded 2002
Certificates.
On October 1, 2010, the City issued $9,015,000 Water Revenue Certificates of Participation, 2010 Series A and $29,650,000 Water Revenue
Bonds, 2010 Series B (Federally taxable - Build America Bonds) to finance the construction of the Surface Water Treatment Facility which is
designed to pump water from the Mokelumne River, treat and deliver it to the City's water distribution system.
On September 1, 2012, the City issued $19,080,000 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds (2012 LRB) to prepay and cause the immediate defeasance
of the outstanding $21,025,000 Certificates of Participation (2002 COP). The 2002 COP were issued in January 2002 to provide funds to finance
the costs of constructing, furnishing and equipping a new police building and jail for the City, to finance portions of certain other projects and to
refund the outstanding 1995 and 1996 Certificates of Participation.
x
The City also issued the $17,105,000 2012 Refunding Wastewater Revenue Bonds (2012 Bonds) in September 2012 to advance refund the
$17,115,000 principal amount of the 2004 Wastewater Revenue Certificates of Participation (2004 COP). The 2004 COP were issued to provide
funds to finance the costs of certain improvements to the wastewater collection, treatment and disposal system of the City.
The City's debt management policy includes a commitment to monitor all forms of debt annually during the preparation of the City's Financial Plan
and Budget to ensure compliance. Also, the City will generally conduct financing on a competitive basis, will seek an investment grade rating on any
direct debt and will obtain credit enhancements such as letters of credit or insurance when necessary for marketing purposes, availability and cost
effectiveness.
Interim Financial Reporting
Monthly financial reports are prepared to present the City's financial condition and changes in financial position. These executive reports are
organized using the "pyramid" approach. As such, the highest level of summary data is presented first, followed by progressively greater levels of
detail. The reports provide current period and year to date revenues, expenditures and encumbrances for all activities and funds, including year- to -
date estimates and variances. The reports are available to all departments.
Single Audit
The City is subject to financial and compliance reporting required by the Single Audit Act Amendments of 1996 and OMB Circular A-133, which is a
requirement of all local and state governments receiving and expending in excess of $500,000 of federal financial awards annually. As part of the
Single Audit, tests are made to determine the adequacy of internal controls, including that portion related to federal financial awards, as well as to
determine that the City has complied with certain applicable laws and regulations governing federal funds. The Single Audit report is published as
part of the annual financial statements for easy reference.
Competitive Bidding Policy
All required purchases for materials, equipment and services during 2014-15 were made pursuant to competitive bidding procedures as established
under the City's purchasing ordinance. Contracts for construction projects were awarded pursuant to competitive bidding procedures established by
the State of California for projects in excess of $5,000.
Risk Management
The City is self-insured for dental care, workers' compensation, general liability and unemployment insurance. General liability and workers'
compensation are administered by outside agencies. The City administers unemployment insurance. Self-insurance transactions are accounted for
under the Insurance Funds. At June 30, 2015, the Insurance Fund had a net position of $4,053,434.
INDEPENDENT AUDIT
The City Council requires an annual audit of the records and accounts of the City by an independent certified public accountant. To ensure proper
internal control, periodically the City conducts a request for proposal (RFP) process for auditing services. The accounting firm of Macias Gini &
O'Connell LLP was selected to perform this audit. The independent auditor's report precedes the basic financial statements and concludes that the
City's basic financial statements are presented fairly, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.
xi
CERTIFICATES OF ACHIEVEMENT
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in
Financial Reporting to the City for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the year ended June 30, 2014. These Certificates of
Achievement are prestigious national and state awards recognizing conformance with the highest standards for preparation of state and local
government financial reports. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a governmental unit must publish an easily readable and
efficiently organized CAFR, whose contents conform to program standards. The CAFR must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles
and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. The City has received a Certificate of Achievement for the last twenty-two
consecutive years. We believe our current report continues to conform to the Certificate of Achievement program requirements and we are
submitting it to GFOA this year.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
As always the professionalism, dedication and efficiency of the Financial Services Division Accounting staff made it possible for the timely
preparation of this report and are to be commended. I would also like to personally thank Ruby Paiste, Financial Services Manager, Derrick Cotten,
Supervising Accountant, Tyson Mordhorst, Senior Programmer Analyst and Nancy Spinelli, Finance Technician. Their work in preparing this year's

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend
on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making
those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control.
Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities,
the business -type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of June 30, 2015, and the respective changes in
financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As described in Note 1 to the basic financial statements, effective July 1, 2014, the City implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions — an amendment of GASB Statement No. 27 and GASB Statement No. 71, Pension
Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date — an amendment of GASB Statement No. 68. Our opinions are not modified with respect
to this matter.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion and analysis, the schedules of changes in net
pension liability and related ratios, the schedule of pension contributions, the schedule of funding progress for the OPEB plan, and the schedule of revenues,
expenditures and change in fund balance — budget and actual — for the General Fund as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic
financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who
considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context.
We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency
with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.
We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express
an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements. The
accompanying introductory section, combining and individual fund statements and schedules, statistical section, schedule of expenditures of federal awards, as
required by Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non -Profit Organizations, and the continuing
disclosures section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual fund statements and schedules and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are the responsibility of management and were
derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been
subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling
such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements
themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the
combining and individual fund statements and schedules and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation
to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory, statistical, and continuing disclosures sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 3, 2016 on our consideration of the City's internal control
over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The
purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to
provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
This section of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented as discussion and analysis of the financial performance of the City of
Lodi (City) for the year ended June 30, 2015.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The assets and the deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and the deferred inflows of resources at the close of
the fiscal year by $171,425,284 (net position). Of this amount, $73,254,063 is unrestricted deficit.
• The City's total net position decreased by $12,863,903 in fiscal year 2015.
• As of June 30, 2015, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $24,436,361, an increase of $3,293,392 in
comparison with the prior year. Of this amount, $12,107,040 is available for spending at the City's discretion (unassigned fund balance).
• At the close of the fiscal year, fund balance for the general fund was $12,478,553, of which $12,107,040 is unassigned or 28.65% of total
general fund revenues of $42,254,075.
• The City's total long-term liabilities decreased by $9,528,619 (4.45%) during the current fiscal year.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements. The City's basic financial statements
are comprised of three components: (1) Government -wide financial statements, (2) Fund financial statements, and (3) Notes to the Basic
Financial Statements. This report also includes other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.
Government -wide Financial Statements
The government -wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a
private -sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all of the City's assets, deferred outflows of resources, and liabilities, with the difference
reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether or not the financial position
of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in
net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus,
revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods, such as revenues
pertaining to uncollected taxes and expenses pertaining to earned but unused vacation and sick leave.
3
Both of the government -wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental
revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through users fees and
charges (business -type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public protection, public works, community
development, library, parks and recreation. The business -type activities of the City include electric operations, wastewater operations, water
operations and public transit operations.
Fund Financial Statements
The fund financial statements are designed to report information about groupings of related accounts, which are used to maintain control over
resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to
ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance -related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into the following three
categories: Governmental funds, Proprietary funds, and Fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the
government -wide financial statements. Most of the City's basic services are reported in governmental funds. These statements, however, focus
on (1) how cash and other financial assets can readily be converted to available resources and (2) the balances left at year-end that are available
for spending. Such information may be useful in determining financial resources available in the near future to finance City programs.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government -wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the
information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government -wide financial
statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the
governmental funds balance sheet and the governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a
reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains several individual governmental funds organized according to their type (special revenue, capital projects and debt service).
Information is presented separately in the governmental funds balance sheet and in the governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures,
and changes in fund balances for the general fund which is considered to be a major fund. Data from the remaining governmental funds are
combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of the non -major governmental funds is provided in the form of
combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts an annual budget for its general fund and special revenue funds. Budgetary comparison statements and schedules have been
provided for the general fund and the special revenue funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
Proprietary Funds. Proprietary funds are generally used to account for services for which the City charges customers, either outside customers,
or internal units or departments of the City. Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as shown in the government -wide financial
statements, only in more detail. The City maintains the following two types of proprietary funds:
• Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business -type activities in the government -wide financial
statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for the operations of the Electric, Wastewater, Water, all of which are considered to
be major funds and the Transit system, which is considered to be a non -major proprietary fund.
4
• Internal Service funds are used to report activities that account for various employee benefits, self-insurance, and fleet activities of the
City. Because these activities predominantly benefit governmental rather than business -type functions, they have been included within
the governmental activities in the government -wide financial statements.
Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the City. The activities of the Industrial
Way -Beckman special assessment and various landscape and lighting districts are accounted for and reported under the fiduciary funds. The
activities of the Private -Purpose Trust and the Hutchins Street Square Bequest are also accounted for under the fiduciary funds. Since the
resources of these funds are not available to support the City's own programs, they are not reflected in the government -wide financial statements.
The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
Notes to the Basic Financial Statements
The notes to the basic financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the
government -wide and fund financial statements.
Required Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report presents certain required supplementary information concerning
changes in net pension liability and related ratios for the City's Miscellaneous and Safety pension plans, the City's progress in funding its
obligation to provide other postemployment benefits (OPEB) to its employees, and schedules comparing budget to actual amounts in the General
Fund.
Combining Statements
The combining statements in connection with non -major governmental funds and fiduciary funds are presented immediately following the required
supplementary information on pensions.

Assets. The City's total assets increased by $6,133,427. The increase is primarily due to the following:
Governmental activities. Total assets for the governmental activities had an increase of $6,192,904 or 3.77% resulting largely from an increase in
cash and investments due to increases in property tax revenue, $495,193; sales tax, $513,673; State mandated reimbursements from claims
6
submitted in prior years including interest, $958,106; and transfers from the Electric, Wastewater, Water Enterprise Funds and the Internal Service
Fund for various capital projects, $3,600,000. Other insignificant activities make up the difference.
Business -type activities. Total assets for the business -type activities had a decrease of $59,477. Current and other assets decreased by
$4,019,537 primarily due to decreases in cash and investments and restricted assets as a result of payments for debt service and an increase in
contributions to the Capital Outlay Fund for various projects, $3,550,000; offset by the increase in Greenhouse gas allowance compared to prior
year of $1,869,672 and the increase in charges for services revenue due to increased rates in Wastewater Fund of $409,030 and in the Electric
Fund by $544,512, due to the overall increase in usage by customers. Capital assets increased by $3,960,060 primarily from the purchase of
thirteen buses in the Transit Fund, $2,585,873, increase in construction in progress, $10,449,092; offset by depreciation of buildings and
improvements, machinery and equipment, and vehicles. Other insignificant activities contributed to the difference.
Deferred outflows of resources. The increase in deferred outflows of resources of $ 6,723,810 is primarily due to the recording of the current
pension contributions made after the measurement date of June 30, 2014 of the CaIPERS valuation report.
Liabilities. The City's total liabilities increased by $84,477,742 or 36.08%. The increase is primarily due to the following:
Governmental activities. Total liabilities for the governmental activities had a significant increase of $75,845,059 or 168.14%, primarily from
pension related liability.
Business -type activities. Total liabilities for the business -type activities increased by $8,632,683 or 4.57%. The increase is primarily attributable to
the pension related liability. Other insignificant activities offset the difference.
Deferred inflows of resources. The increase in deferred inflows of resources of $16,170,156 represents the plan earnings of both
Miscellaneous and Safety Plans in excess of projected in the CaIPERS actuarial report.
Net position. The City's overall financial position has increased during the fiscal year. The net position has increased by $12,863,903, excluding
the restatement of $100,654,564, or 4.96%.
The largest portion ($225,867,867) of the City's net position reflects its investment in capital assets net of any associated depreciation (e.g., land,
buildings and improvements, machinery and equipment); less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City uses
these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City's
investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided
from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
An additional portion of the City's net position, $18,811,480 (10.97%) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they
may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net position amounts to a deficit of $73,254,063. At the end of the current fiscal year, the
City is able to report positive balances in two categories of net position for the City as a whole. Unrestricted net position is negative for the
governmental -type activities.

Analysis of Changes in Net Position
Governmental activities
Net position for the governmental activities increased by $4,941,528 in the current fiscal year, which is an increase of $4,472,063 from last year's
increase of $469,465. The key factors impacting this increase are:
8
Revenues increased $436,608 from the prior fiscal year. Key elements of this increase are:
• Charges for services increased by 8.8%, a net amount of $500,784 from the prior fiscal year, mainly from the increase revenue from
engineering inspection fees and engineering fees of $415,705.
• Operating grants and contributions increased by $683,143 or 25.43% compared to the prior year from the increase in the State mandated
reimbursements of $958,106 offset by the decrease in Police Hiring grant of $194,984 and decrease of CaIGRIP funding of $177,776.
• Capital grants and contributions decreased by $2,228,149 or 41.58% from the prior fiscal year. The decrease in capital contributions was
mainly attributable to federal funds used for the Harney Lane Grade Separation project and the Sacramento Street Pedestrian
Beautification project totaling $1,761,762, decrease gas tax allocation of $167,740 and decrease in CDBG allocation of $307,992.
• Property taxes increased by $744,006 or 5.83% compared to prior year. The economy continues to show evidence of positive movement
particularly in the housing market. Rising home prices coupled with record lows in mortgage rates are helping the process to generate
sales, resulting in an increase in property tax revenues in the current year.
• Grants and contributions not restricted to specific programs increased by $512,797 or 5.06% basically from sales tax revenues which
increased by $513,673. The overall increase in sales tax is attributed to a general increase in consumer spending and steady increase in
auto sales spurred by low interest rates, easy credit and manufacturer's incentives.
Expenses for governmental functions totaled $53,239,274, a decrease of $1,313,841 from the prior fiscal year. The key elements of this decrease
are:
• General government — the decrease in general government of $471,590 is primarily due to decrease in salaries and benefits due to
vacancies and the effect of the Council approved one-time payment given to employees and the increase in the cap for medical premiums
in the prior year. Other insignificant increases offset the difference.
• Public protection — a decrease of $457,584 in public protection is primarily due to vacancies and the one-time payment given to
employees and the increase in the cap for medical premiums in the prior year. Other insignificant increases offset the difference.
• Public works — the decrease of $362,734 is primarily due to vacancies and the one-time payment given to employees and the increase for
medical premiums in the prior year. Other insignificant increases offset the difference.
Transfers increased by $2,771,614, primarily due to contributions from the enterprise funds for various capital projects.
Business -type activities
Business -type activities increased the City's net position by $7,922,375 in the current year, which is a decrease of $302,156 from last year's
increase of $8,224,531. The key elements of this decrease are:
• Transfers to the governmental activities for various capital projects increased by $2,771,614 in comparison to the prior year.
• Charges for services in the Electric fund increased by $544,512 primarily from sales due to growth and increased usage by commercial
customers.
• Increase in the Greenhouse gas allowance (GHG) of $1,869,672 in the Electric fund related to Assembly Bill 32: Global Warming Act,
which set the 2020 greenhouse gas emissions reduction into law and also adopted a regulation that established a system of market-based
declining annual aggregate emission limits for sources or categories of sources that emit greenhouse gases. In 2011, the California Air
Resources Board (ARB) adopted the cap -and -trade regulation. This program covers major sources of GHG emissions in the State such
as refineries, power plants, industrial facilities, and transportation fuels. The cap -and -trade program includes an enforceable emissions
cap that will decline over time. The State distributes allowances which are tradable permits, equal to emissions allowed under the cap.
9
• Capital contributions increased by $2,437,321, primarily from federal funds received for the purchase of buses for the Transit Fund.
• Increase in depreciation expense of $1,146,358 as the result of adding $5,416,421 in capital assets.
• Bulk power cost increased by $1,209,397 compared to the prior year is primarily attributed to increasing transmission access charges per
MWH charged by NCPA.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY'S FUNDS
Governmental Funds
The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such
information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a
government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. Types of governmental funds reported by the City include the
General Fund, special revenue funds, debt service fund and capital projects funds.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $24,436,361. This represents an
increase of $3,293,392, an increase of $2,162,924 in comparison to the prior year increase of $1,130,468 resulting from the increase in total
revenues and increase in transfers in, offset by the increase in capital outlay.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was
$12,107,040 while total fund balance was $12,478,553. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both
unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance and total fund balance represent 33.56%
and 34.59% of total General Fund expenditures, respectively.
The fund balance of the General Fund increased by $3,004,793 during the current fiscal year, an increase of $1,496,245 from last year's increase
of $1,508,548. Key factors in this growth are as follows:
• Total revenues increased by $2,653,051, primarily from the increase in sales tax of $513,673; increase in property tax of $495,193,
increase in property tax in -lieu of $244,564, increase in State mandated reimbursements of $958,106; increase in engineering and
inspection fees, $415,705; and, increase in transient occupancy tax of $72,636. Other insignificant increases and decreases offset the
difference.
• Total expenditures increased by $297,571, primarily from increase in public works for professional services related to construction testing
and inspection services for various city projects. Salaries and wages also decreased by $747,481 and offset by the increase of overtime
by $ 446,372 due to vacancies. Other insignificant increases and decreases offset the difference.
Proprietary Funds
The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government -wide financial statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net position at the end of the year for the Wastewater Fund was $5,698,680, Water Fund was $2,087,340 and for the Transit Fund,
$3,489,661. The Electric Fund unrestricted net position was ($10,383,325) and the Internal Services Funds unrestricted net position was
($615,623).
10
Other factors concerning the finances of these funds are discussed in the City's business -type activities.
GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
Differences between the original budget and the final budget in the General Fund were a net increase in appropriations of $99,422. The increase
in appropriations can be briefly summarized as follows:
• $61,923 increase in general government
• $301,499 decrease in public protection
• $128,511 increase in public works
• $11,643 increase in library
Significant differences between the final budget and the actual revenues and expenditures can be briefly summarized as follows:
• Taxes — a favorable variance of $467,835 was due to positive variances in property tax ($57,041), real property transfer tax ($29,493),
transient occupancy tax ($116,419), in -lieu of vehicle license fees ($122,721), cable TV franchise fees ($59,537), electric, gas and
industrial waste franchise ($106,235), card room tax ($23,217), offset by a negative variance in business license tax ($46,828).
• Intergovernmental revenues — a favorable variance of $1,359,792 was mainly due to a positive variance in sales tax ($366,733), State
mandated reimbursements ($962,932), and in Prop. 172 ($31,865).
• For expenditures, a favorable variance between the final budget and actual expenditures of $948,082 was due to savings from vacancies
and the continued overall effort to reduce spending and costs.

#3, City Hall Annex improvements, the Harney Lane Grade separation project, White Slough Plant improvements, and the Water Meter Programs
- Phases #4 and #5. The increase in vehicles resulted from the purchase of thirteen buses.

management's focus on improving financial performance and no plans to issue additional debt in the near future.
In September 2015, Standard & Poor's Rating Services raised its long-term rating to A+ from A on the outstanding public improvement bonds with
a stable outlook.
Additional information on the City's long-term debt can be found in Note 8 on pages 52-58 of this report.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET
The City continues to see a number of positive economic indicators and is slowly returning to revenue levels seen before the Great Recession.
General Fund revenues including transfers from other funds are projected to increase for the first time to exceed the historic high of $45.5 million
in 2007/08 to a conservatively projected $46,708,260 in 2015/16, representing a 7.2 percent growth in revenues.
This past year has seen the continued growth for Costco and Home Depot stores. Moreover, plans are now on file for construction of several
businesses and additional retailers are moving forward with plans to complete other sections of the development at Reynolds Ranch. Additionally,
the Lodi Shopping Center is moving forward and is under construction.
The General Fund continues to be of the greatest focus. It funds all of the core municipal services including police, fire, administration, economic
development, transfers to the parks and library funds and other essential public services. The General Fund houses the large majority of City
employees.
The City has reduced its workforce by 17% over the past ten years, from 470 full-time budgeted employees in 2004/05 to 391 full-time budgeted
employees in 2015/16. The City will add a net of 8 positions this year to address capital maintenance needs, succession planning and operational
efficiencies in various departments.
13
The City will continue its capital efforts in the coming year. Significant projects expected to be undertaken during the year include various
electrical system maintenance projects, water meter and water system maintenance projects, PCE/TCE remediation projects, various wastewater
system maintenance projects, street maintenance and replacing boating facilities at Lodi Lake Park under a State Division of Boating and
Waterways Local Assistance grant. The City began a phased financial systems implementation and activated the financials, human resources
and payroll during the fiscal year 2014/15. Utility billing, business license and animal license and fleet maintenance management modules will be
brought live during the budget year. Additionally, the City is expecting to complete construction of Fire Station #2 and refurbish the City Hall
Annex to house Parks Administration, Fire Administration and the City's computer systems.
Balancing the 2015/16 budget involves balancing several critical issues: employee costs and retirement contributions; capital programs; and cost
increases beyond the City's control that were either imposed by external entities or negotiated by the City with its bargaining groups.
Employee costs and retirement contributions — Prior to the economic downturn, Lodi and its employees aggressively moved to manage
employment costs. Positions not deemed vital to City operations were held vacant, and other departmental expenses were closely monitored.
Importantly, as the economy plummeted, in March 2009, City employees made a number of temporary salary and benefit concessions to reduce
salary costs, including salary reductions, furloughs, and waiving of the City's deferred compensation match. These concessions alone were
valued at over $2.3 million for FY 2009-10, $2.7 million for FY 2010-11, and $3.0 million for FY 2011-12. Consequently, the City largely avoided
employee layoffs and drastic service cuts so common in other cities. In 2013, the majority of employees agreed to a historic restructuring of their
salary and benefits, permanently reducing employee expenses. Employees agreed to paying their full seven or nine percent retirement
contribution and capping the City's medical costs. The effect of these agreements was to reduce employment costs seven to nine percent below
the 2007/08 levels.
For 2014/15, the City negotiated an additional one-year agreement with all of its bargaining units (except IBEW). For the first time since 2007/08,
the City returned a portion of the concessions agreed to by employees, issuing a one-time payment of $2,300 per employee to all employees, and
increasing the medical cap to January 2014 rates. In addition, the City increased safety uniform allowances by 1 percent on a one-year non-
PERSable basis. The one-time dollars were paid for from amounts over the City's General Fund reserve targets at the close of the 2012/13
budget year. The ongoing health costs were funded through the budget.
Looking forward to 2015/16 and beyond, the City has reached an agreement with The agreements reached generally call for 3 percent raises in
year one and 2 percent raises in years two and three.
Capital programs — The City continues to utilize one-time funds for capital maintenance, rather than ongoing operations. In prior years, the City
assessed its physical plant and is using one-time funds generated by the Lodi Energy Center, to address deferred maintenance projects on its
buildings. Scheduled to be completed this year are Fire Station #2, City Hall Annex remodel, financial system implementation and various roof,
parking lot and facility maintenance projects totaling about $1.6 million. The 2015/16 budget also includes $767,000 in unallocated one-time
revenues that could be put toward additional capital projects.
Imposed costs — While revenues have increased by over $3.1 million, the cost of retirement and insurance continue to rise. In the last few years,
CaIPERS has revised a number of its actuarial assumptions and policies. Rates for Miscellaneous plan employees rose 1.9 percent while Safety
plan rates increased 2.9 percent. Total additional cost to the City is about $600,000.
In December of 2014, CaIPERS released its long awaited five-year rate projections resulting from its major policy shift regarding the time frame
within which it recovers market losses. In years past, CaIPERS recovered these losses over a 30 -year rolling period. In 2013, CaIPERS reduced
14
that time frame. The increase is phased in on a bell curve over five years, levels out for 20 years and decreasing for the last five. The bell curve
structure means Lodi will see its greatest impact in the 2019/20 budget year. Projected contribution rates ranges from 19.994% to 27.7% for the
Miscellaneous group, and 40.87% to 54.59% for the Safety group, in the next five years.
A second cost increase that is a cause of concern is rapidly increasing health care costs. While the City has negotiated a medical insurance cap
with its bargaining units, costs are expected to increase and impact the net pay of the workforce. Staff is evaluating the impact of the Affordable
Care Act and believes that prudent management of part-time hours will allow the City to avoid an economic impact.
A third cost increase that is a cause of concern is worker's compensation. The City is self-funded for worker's compensation costs. There has
been a moderation in the cost and severity of claims and the City has funded its actuarial liability at slightly more than the 90% percent confidence
level. Staff continues to manage the program and provide education to employees to minimize injuries and work time losses.
Economic Development
During the Great Recession, the City has fared better than the surrounding area, as a whole. While not immune to the foreclosure crisis, the City
housing stock has seen fewer foreclosures and has maintained housing values better than the surrounding communities.
The City's unemployment rate continues to track roughly 1 percent lower than that of San Joaquin County. The City's diversified economic base
continues to help the City maintain its revenue base.
Although agriculture is an important part of the City's past, present and future by providing residents with employment on farms and in processing
plants, even more jobs can be found in food and plastics manufacturing and in health-related businesses.
Lodi Health Hospital, Blue Shield and ConAgra have the highest year-round employment in the City, and large national and international
manufacturers such as CertainTeed find the City an attractive base for their West Coast operations. The City was disappointed with the
announcement that the General Mills plant would be closing by the end of 2016. City staff, is in discussions with General Mills staff regarding the
marketing and re -use of the site as General Mills closes the plant. While a major employer, staff is optimistic that a suitable replacement will be
found timely and not significantly impact City operations.

June 30, 2015
(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) The Financial Reporting Entity
The City of Lodi (City) was incorporated on December 6, 1906, as a municipal corporation under the General Laws of the State of California.
The City operates under a Council -Manager form of government and provides the following services: general government, public works,
community development, public protection (police and fire), public utilities, library, parks and recreation.
The accounting policies of the City conform to generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applicable to governments in the United
States of America. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for governmental accounting
and financial reporting principles.
An elected five -member council governs the City of Lodi. As required by GAAP, these financial statements present the City and its component
units, entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. The component units, although legally separate entities, are, in
substance, part of the City's operations and therefore, their activities are blended with data of the City.
Blended Component Units
The blended component units of the City are as follows:
The Lodi Public Improvement Corporation (LPIC) was formed on April 26, 1988, for the purpose of rendering financial assistance to the City in
the issuance of the 1988 Certificates of Participation (refunded by the issuance of the 1991 Certificates of Participation) to finance the expansion
of the City's White Slough Pollution Control Facility. Since then, several Certificates of Participation were issued to finance various major
projects (See Note 8).
The City Council constitutes the Board of Directors of LPIC. The funds of LPIC have been included in the Enterprise (Electric and Wastewater)
Funds and in the other governmental funds in the accompanying basic financial statements.
The Lodi Financing Corporation (LFC) was formed on October 12, 1999, for the purpose of assisting the City with the financing of the costs of its
environmental abatement program and enhancing the water supply of the City for the use, benefit and enjoyment of the citizens served by the
City. The City Council is the Board of Directors of LFC. The funds of LFC are included in the Water Fund in the accompanying basic financial
statements.
The Lodi Public Financing Authority (LPFA) was created by a Joint Exercise of Powers Agreement between the City and the Industrial
Development Authority (IDA) on July 21, 2010, for the purpose of assisting the City in the financings of public capital improvements. The 2010
Water Revenue Certificates of Participation Series A and B were issued in October 2010 to provide funds for a new water treatment facility. On
September 1, 2012, the $19,080,000 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds (2012 LRB) was issued to prepay and cause the immediate defeasance
of the outstanding $21,025,000 Certificates of Participation (2002 COP). The 2002 COP were issued in January 2002 to provide funds to
finance the costs of constructing, furnishing and equipping a new police building and jail for the City, to finance portions of certain other projects
32
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
and to refund the outstanding 1995 and 1996 Certificates of Participation. The $17,105,000 2012 Refunding Wastewater Revenue Bonds (2012
Bonds) was also issued in September 2012 to advance refund the $17,115,000 principal amount of the 2004 Wastewater Revenue Certificates
of Participation (2004 COP). The 2004 COP were issued to provide funds to finance the costs of certain improvements to the wastewater
collection, treatment and disposal system of the City.
The City Council constitutes the Board of Directors of LPFA. The funds of LPFA have been included in the Enterprise (Water) Fund in the
accompanying basic financial statements.
(b) Government -Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government -wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the non -
fiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. For the most part the effect of interfund activity has been removed from
these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately
from business -type activities that rely, to a significant extent, on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function are offset by program revenues. Direct
expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include (1) charges to customers or
applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and (2) grants and
contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Taxes and other items not properly
included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded
from the government -wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as
separate columns in the fund financial statements.
(c) Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation
The government -wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis of accounting, as
are the proprietary fund and private -purpose trust fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded
when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they
are levied. Grant and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements have been met. Agency funds use the
accrual basis of accounting, but they do not have a measurement focus.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they
33
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. The City considers property tax revenues
to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal year. All other revenues are considered to be available if they
are generally collected within 120 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as
under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to vacation, sick leave, claims and judgments,
are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, other local taxes, licenses, intergovernmental revenues, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered
susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenues are considered to be
measurable and available when the City receives cash.
The City reports the following major governmental fund:
The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the City except those required to be
accounted for in another fund.
The City reports the following major proprietary (enterprise) funds:
The Electric Fund accounts for the provision of electric services to the residents of the City. All activities necessary to provide such
services are accounted for in this fund, including but not limited to, source of supply, overhead, systems maintenance, customer service,
engineering, administration, capital improvements, and maintenance and debt service.
The Wastewater Fund accounts for the provision of wastewater collection and treatment services to the residents of the City. All
activities necessary to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to, administration, operations,
maintenance, improvements and debt service.
The Water Fund accounts for the provision of water to the residents of the City as well as some customers in the San Joaquin County
(County). All activities to provide such services are accounted for in this fund, including, but not limited to administration, operations,
distribution, maintenance, capital improvements and debt service.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
The Internal Service Funds account for the City's claims, benefits and fleet services.
The Fiduciary Funds account for assets held in trust for other agencies.
34
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
Private -Purpose Trust Funds are used to account for trust agreements under which the principal and income benefit
individuals, private organizations or other governments. They were established to account for assets held and invested by the
Library Board as trustee; and to account for assets held by the City in accordance with a trust agreement on behalf of the
Hutchins Square. These funds can only be spent in accordance with the trust agreements.
Agency Funds account for assets held by the City as a trustee or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, related
organizations and/or other governmental units. This fund was established to account for special assessments collected on the
property tax roll by the City on behalf of the property owners within the Industrial Way/Beckman Districts, the
Downtown/Cherokee Lane Districts and various landscape and lighting districts around the City.
The effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government -wide financial statements. Exceptions to this rule are charges to other
City departments from the Electric, Wastewater, Water and Transit Funds. These charges have not been eliminated because elimination would
distort the direct costs and program revenues reported in the statement of activities.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result
from providing services in connection with the fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City's enterprise
funds and internal service funds are charges for customer services including: electric, wastewater, water and public transportation fees.
Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on
capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
(d) Cash and Investments
The City maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for all funds of the City for the purpose of increasing interest earnings through
investment activities. Investments are generally stated at fair value with the exception of guaranteed investment contracts, which are stated at
cost. Income earned or losses arising from the investment of pooled cash are allocated to various funds based on month-end cash balances in
accordance with California Government Code Section 53647. Changes in fair value of investments are recognized as a component of
investment income.
(e) Restricted Cash and Investments
The City accounts for certain settlement payments for environmental remediation as restricted with the understanding that these funds will be
used exclusively for environmental clean up, investigation or remediation expenses incurred by the City in the specified areas and that they will
not be used for the payment of legal or technical fees. These funds are accounted for in the Water Fund.
35
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
(f) Restricted Assets with Fiscal Agents
Restricted assets represent the proceeds from debt and other cash and investments held by fiscal agents by agreement that meet the definition
of cash and cash equivalents, with the exception of a $2,169,850 guaranteed investment contract held in the Wastewater Fund which is a long-
term investment.
In the Electric Fund, restricted assets represent the proceeds of the 2002D and the 2008 Certificates of Participation restricted for debt service.
In the Wastewater Fund, the restricted assets represent the proceeds of the 2004A and the 2007A Certificates of Participation issued for
improvements to the City's wastewater collection, treatment and disposal system. In the Water Fund, restricted assets represent the proceeds of
the 2010A and 2010B Revenue Bonds issued for the purpose of providing funds to pay the cost of a new Water Treatment Facility.
(g) Property Taxes
County is responsible for assessing, collecting and distributing property taxes in accordance with enabling legislation. Revenue received is
based on an allocation factor calculated by the County under the provisions of Proposition 13, plus a percentage of the increase in market value
in specific areas. The City's property tax lien is based on the assessed value listed as of the prior January 1st for all real and personal property
located in the City. Property sold after the assessment date (January 1st) is reassessed and the amount of property tax assessed is prorated.
The assessed value at January 1, 2015, upon which the 2014-15 levy was based, was $5,418,050,000.
Secured property taxes are levied on October 1 and are due in two installments on November 1 and February 1. The tax becomes delinquent
after December 10 and April 10, respectively. Unsecured property tax is levied on July 1, due on July 31 and becomes delinquent after August
31.
Property taxes levied for the year ended June 30, 2015, are recorded as receivables, net of estimated uncollectible amounts. Property taxes
paid to the City by the County within 60 days of the fiscal year end are considered "available" and are, therefore, recognized as revenue in
governmental funds.
In 1993, the City made an agreement with the San Joaquin County to participate in the Teeter Plan. The Teeter plan is an alternative method of
apportioning property tax money. The City receives 95% of the property taxes in advance from the County and the 5% remaining after
reconciling the City's balance at June 30. As part of the agreement, the County keeps the penalties and interest on the delinquent taxes.
(h) Due From/Due To Other Funds, Advances To/Advances From Other Funds, and Internal Balances
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided or services rendered. In the fund
financial statements, these receivables and payables are classified as "due from other funds" or "due to other funds." Long-term interfund loans
36
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
receivable are reported as "advances to other funds." The corresponding long-term interfund loans payable are reported as "advances from
other funds." In the government -wide financial statements, these receivables and payables are eliminated within the governmental activities and
business -type activities columns. Receivables and payables between the governmental activities and the business -type activities are classified
as internal balances.
(i) Transfers
In the fund financial statements, interfund transfers are recorded as transfers in (out) except for transactions that are described below:
Charges for services are recorded as revenues of the performing fund and expenditures/expenses of the requesting fund. Unbilled
costs are recognized as an asset of the performing fund at the end of fiscal year.
Reimbursements for expenditures/expenses, initially made by one fund that is properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as
expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as a reduction of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed.
Reimbursements are eliminated for purposes of government -wide reporting.
(j) Long-term Obligations
In the government -wide financial statements and in the proprietary fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are
reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business -type activities, or proprietary fund statement of net position. Bond
premiums are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium. Losses
occurring from advance refunding are reported as deferred outflows of resources and amortized as an expense for both governmental and
business -type activities.
(k) Loans Receivable
Loans receivable reported in the HOME Program and Community Development Block Grants Special Revenue Fund represent funds loaned to
first-time homebuyers. Loans receivable in the Electric Enterprise Fund represent loans to eligible industrial and commercial customers
participating in the Lodi Energy Efficiency Financing Pilot Project.
In December 2009, the City entered into a contractual relationship with the California Department of Housing and Community Development
(HCD) to administer a First-time Homebuyers Program. The loan program is intended to provide deferred down -payment assistance to first-time
homebuyers who are at or below 80% of the median income, for the purchase of homes within Lodi. The loan bears 2% interest and is due and
payable 30 years from close of escrow, upon transfer of the property or when the home is no longer owner -occupied, whichever comes first.
37
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
In October 2010, the City established a loan fund in its public benefits program from which G2 electric utility rate commercial and industrial
customers may borrow money to implement energy conservation projects in their facilities. The loan is at zero interest rate payable in two years
capped at $50,000 per customer. As of June 30, 2015, a total of twenty-one loans to industrial and commercial customers have been approved.
(I) Advance Receivable
Advance receivable reported in the Electric Enterprise Fund represents the City's portion of the Northern California Power Agency's (NCPA)
General Operating Reserve that is refundable upon demand by the City (See Note 12).
(m) Inventory
Other governmental funds inventories are recorded at cost and are recognized as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.
For the proprietary fund types, inventories are recorded at cost using the weighted average cost method, which approximates market, and
expense is recognized when inventories are consumed in operations.
(n) Deferred Outflows and Inflows of Resources
Unamortized Losses on Defeasance
Deferred outflows of resources reported in the Electric Enterprise Fund and business -type activities include refunding loss incurred in connection
with the issuance of the 2008 Certificates of Participation Series A amortized over 24 years. The deferred outflows of resources reported in the
Wastewater Enterprise Fund and business -type activities include refunding loss incurred on the issuance of the 2007A Certificates of
Participation amortized over 20 years and the 2012 Refunding Revenue Bonds amortized over 11 years. Deferred outflows of resources
reported in the governmental activities represent refunding loss incurred with the issuance of the 2012 Refunding Lease Revenue Bonds.
Related to Pensions
Pension contributions made in the current year are reported as deferred outflows of resources per GASB Statement No. 71 as the CaIPERS'
valuation measurement date is June 30, 2014. Those contributions will be expensed in fiscal year 2015-16. Plan earnings in excess of earnings
projected in the CaIPERS actuarial report are reported as deferred inflows of resources.
Unavailable Revenue
The unavailable revenue in the other governmental funds is related to the HCD's First-time Homebuyers Program.
38
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
(o) Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include land, buildings and improvements, machinery and equipment, vehicles, infrastructure (e.g., streets, streetlights,
traffic signals, sidewalks, and bridges), and electric lines, wastewater lines and storm drains are reported in the applicable governmental or
business -type activities columns in the government -wide financial statements and in the proprietary funds financial statements. Capital assets
are defined by the City as assets with individual cost of $3,000 or more and have an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Such assets
are recorded at historical cost. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation. Capital outlay is
recorded as expenditures in the General and other governmental funds and as assets in the government -wide financial statements to the extent
the City's capitalization threshold is met.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend asset useful lives are not capitalized.
As required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 34, beginning July 1, 2002, the City has capitalized infrastructure,
primarily its network of streets, as part of the capital assets shown in the governmental activities column on the government -wide statement of
net position. This capitalization included infrastructure that could be identified and has been acquired since July 1, 1980.
Depreciation of capital assets is provided on the straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
Years
Buildings and improvements 3 - 40
Machinery and equipment 2 - 40
Vehicles 5 - 15
Infrastructure 10 - 50
(p) Compensated Absences/Vacation and Sick Leave
The City accrues for compensated absences, in the government -wide financial statements and the proprietary funds financial statements, to pay
its employees for the unused vacation, compensatory time, and miscellaneous leave. The City is not obligated to pay for unused sick leave if
employees terminate prior to retirement.
39
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
(q) Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and
pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Miscellaneous and Safety Plans (Plans) and additions to/deductions from the
Plans' fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the CaIPERS Financial Office. For this purpose,
benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit
terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
GASB Statement No. 68 requires that the reported results must pertain to liability and asset information within certain defined timeframes. For
this report, the following timeframes are used:
Valuation Date:
Measurement Date:
Measurement Period:
(r) Self -Insurance
June 30, 2013
June 30, 2014
July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2014
The City is self-insured for general liability, workers' compensation, dental benefits, unemployment and long-term disability. Various City funds
are charged premiums for the City's self-insurance liability, which is accounted for in an internal service fund. The accrued liability for estimated
self-insured claims represents an estimate of the eventual loss on claims arising prior to year-end including claims incurred but not reported.
(s) Net Position
In the government -wide and proprietary funds financial statements, net position is reported in one of three categories:
Net Investment in Capital Assets — This category consists of capital assets net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by deferred
outflows of resources and outstanding debt that is attributed to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of the assets.
Restricted Net Position — Assets restricted by external creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments
reduced by liabilities related to those assets.
Unrestricted Net Position — This category consists of all net position that does not meet the definition of net investment in capital
assets or restricted net position.
40
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
(t) Fund Balance
Fund balances presented in the governmental fund financial statements represent the difference between assets, liabilities and deferred inflows
of resources. GASB Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, establishes the criteria for classifying
fund balances into specifically defined classifications and clarifies definitions for governmental funds. GASB Statement No. 54 requires that the
fund balances be classified in categories based upon the type of restrictions imposed on the use of funds. The City evaluated each of its funds
at June 30, 2015 and classified fund balances into the following five categories:
Nonspendable — Amounts that cannot be spent because they are (1) not in spendable form, such as prepaid items, inventories and
long-term receivables for which the payment of proceeds are not restricted or committed with respect to the nature of the specific
expenditures of that fund or (2) legally or contractually required to remain intact.
Restricted — Amounts that are restricted by external parties such as creditors or imposed by grants, laws or regulations of other
governments or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. The City has legislative restrictions on amounts
collected and reported in the City's various governmental funds.
Committed — Amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by a formal action by the City's
"highest level of decision-making authority", which the City considers to be an ordinance passed by the Lodi City Council.
Assigned — Amounts that have been allocated by action of the Lodi City Council in which the City's intent is to use the funds for a
specific purpose. Once assigned, funds may only be released by resolution of the City Council.
Unassigned — Amounts that constitute the residual balances that have no restrictions placed upon them and are reported in the General
Fund. For other governmental funds, as restrictions exceed available resources only deficit amounts are reported in the unassigned
category.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, and then unrestricted
resources as they are needed.
The City does not have a policy on the order of spending unrestricted amounts when an expenditure is incurred for which amounts in any of the
unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used. Therefore, by default under GASB Statement No. 54, the City uses committed
resources first, then assigned resources and unassigned resources last as they are needed.
It is the City's policy to maintain an unassigned fund balance in the General Fund of at least 16% of revenues and working capital balances in the
Water and Wastewater enterprise funds of at least 25% of operating expenses and the target for the Electric Enterprise Fund working capital is
41
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
$23.7 million. The policy allows for variations from year-to-year to account for economic and fiscal changes. The City Council also adopted a
policy to establish the following reserves:
Catastrophic reserve - To maintain the ability of the City to meet operational costs during times of declared emergency or major catastrophe,
the City shall designate General Fund balance of a minimum of 8% of annual General Fund revenues. This reserve may only be drawn upon
pursuant to an emergency as declared under the Municipal Code.
Economic reserve - To maintain the City's economic viability and to meet seasonal cashflow shortfalls, the City shall designate General Fund
economic reserve balance of a minimum of 8% of annual General Fund revenues. Funding the economic reserve will begin in the fiscal year
following full funding of the catastrophic reserve. Funding may only be disbursed upon a resolution of the City Council.
Once fully funded, if these reserves fall below 5% of annual revenues, the City Manager shall prepare a plan within three months of approval of
the City's Financial Statements. This plan will restore the 5% within 12 months and the 8% within 24 months.
(u) Statement of Cash Flows
A statement of cash flows is presented for proprietary fund types. For purposes of reporting cash flows, the City considers all highly liquid
investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased and investments maintained in the pool to be cash equivalents.
(v) Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain
reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(w) Implementation of New Governmental Accounting Standards
During the year ended June 30, 2015, the City implemented GASB Statement No. 68 — Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions — An
Amendment of GASB Statement No. 27 and GASB Statement No. 71 — Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the
Measurement Date — an amendment of GASB Statement No. 68 (collectively, the Statements). The primary objective of the Statements is to
improve accounting and financial reporting by state and local governments for pensions by establishing standards for measuring and recognizing
liabilities, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and expenses. It requires employers to report a net pension liability for
the difference between the present value of projected pension benefits for past service and restricted resources held in trust for the payment of
benefits. The Statements identify the methods and assumptions that should be used to project benefit payments, discount projected benefit
payments to their actuarial present value, and attribute that present value to periods of employee service.
42
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
The net pension liability offset by the related deferred outflows of resources as of June 30, 2014 reduced the City's beginning net position of its
governmental activities, business -type activities, Electric Fund, Wastewater Fund, Water Fund, Transit Fund, and internal service funds by
$80,965,314, $19,689,250, $11,101,735, $7,369,943, $724,395, $493,177, and $1,081,238, respectively.
(x) Future Implementation of New Governmental Accounting Standards
The City is currently analyzing its accounting practices to determine the potential impact on the financial statements for the following GASB
Statements:
In February 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 72, Fair Value Measurement and Application. This statement addresses accounting and financial
reporting issues related to fair value measurements. The requirements of this statement are effective for the City's year ending June 30, 2016.
In June 2015, GASB issued Statement No. 73, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions and Related Assets That Are Not within the
Scope of GASB Statement No. 68, and Amendments to Certain Provisions of GASB Statements No. 67 and No. 68. This statement establishes
requirements for those pensions and pension plans that are not administrated through a trust meeting specified criteria and thus are not covered

criteria for an external investment pool to qualify for making the election to measure all investments at amortized cost for financial reporting
purposes. Pool participants should also measure their investments at amortized cost if the external pool meets these criteria. If an external
investment pool does not meet the criteria, then the pool should apply the provisions in paragraph 16 of Statement No. 31, Accounting and
Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools. Pool participants should measure their investments in that pool at
external investment pools that measure all of their investments at amortized cost and for governments that participate in those pools. The

Total investments $ 92,678,223
Investments in equities are shares of stock received by the Library as an endowment from a private citizen.
(d) Credit Risk
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This is measured by
the assignment of a rating by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The money market mutual funds are registered under the
Federal Investment Company Act of 1940, whose shares are registered under the Federal Securities Act of 1933, and have a rating by S&P of
"AAA -m." The GICs and LAIF do not have a rating provided by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. The CALTRUST Short
term fund is rated "AA/S1+" by S&P while the CALTRUST Medium term fund is rated "A or better." The negotiable certificates of deposit are all
rated AAA.
In accordance with the City's investment policy in selecting authorized investments, consideration must be given to credit ratings and
collateralization of applicable instruments, however, the City does not have a minimum credit rating limitations policy.
46
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
(e) Concentration of Credit Risk
The investment policy of the City contains certain limitations on the amount that can be invested in any one issuer beyond that stipulated by the
California Government Code. Investments in LAIF, CALTRUST, and money market mutual funds are not subject to the concentration of credit
risk disclosure. There are no investments with any one issuer greater than 5% of total investments.
(f) Custodial Credit Risk
Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government will not be able to
recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The California Government Code and the City's investment policy do
not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to custodial risk for deposits, other than the following provision for deposits:
The California Government Code requires that a financial institution secure deposits made by state or local governmental units by pledging
securities in an undivided collateral pool held by a depository regulated under state law. The market value of the pledged securities in the
collateral pool must equal at least 110% of the total amount deposited by the public agencies. California law also allows financial institutions to
secure City deposits by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of the secured deposits. $9,652,164 of the City's
deposits with financial institutions, which exceeded federal depository insurance limits, was collateralized in this fashion.
The custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty (e.g., broker-dealer) to a transaction, a
government will not be able to recover the value of the investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of another party. The
California Government Code and the City's investment policy do not contain legal or policy requirements that would limit the exposure to
custodial credit risk for investments. With respect to investments, custodial credit risk generally applies only to direct investments in marketable
securities. Custodial credit risk does not apply to a local government's indirect investment in securities through the use of mutual funds or
government investment pools such as LAIF.
(g) Investments in Investment Pools
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated by the California Government Code under the
oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California. The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying financial
statements at amounts based upon the City's pro -rata share of the fair value provided by LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the
amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which are
recorded on an amortized cost basis.
The total amount invested by all public agencies in LAIF at June 30, 2015 was $21.5 billion. LAIF is part of the California Pooled Investment
Account (PMIA), which at June 30, 2015 had a balance of $69.6 billion. Of this amount, 2.08% was invested in medium-term and short-term
structured notes and asset-backed securities. PMIA is not SEC -registered, but is required to invest according to California State Code. The
average maturity of PMIA investments was 239 days as of June 30, 2015.
47
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
The Local Investment Advisory Board has oversight responsibility for LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by state statute.
The value of the pool of shares in LAIF, which may be withdrawn, is determined on an amortized cost basis, which is different than the fair value
of the City's portion of the pool. Withdrawals from LAIF are done on a dollar for dollar basis.
In accordance with GASB Statement 31, investments are marked to fair value annually and an adjustment is made to each fund accordingly.
However, actual daily activity is done on a dollar to dollar basis and only a withdrawal from the pool size that jeopardizes pool participants would
cause the withdrawal to be done at market value.
The City is also a participant in the Investment Trust of California Joint Powers Authority Pool (CALTRUST). At June 30, 2015, the City's
investment in CALTRUST is $43.6 million. CALTRUST is an innovative partnership between the CSAC Finance Corporation and the League of
California Cities to provide a convenient method for local agencies to pool their assets for investment. The weighted average to maturity of
CALTRUST investments was as follows: CALTRUST Short Term, 16 months and CALTRUST Medium, 24 months. The Board of Trustees,
which is made up of experienced local treasurers and Investment Officers has oversight responsibility for CALTRUST. The value of the pool
shares in CALTRUST, which may be withdrawn, is determined on a fair value basis, which may be different than the amortized cost of the City's
portion of the pool. The total amount invested in CALTRUST by California public agencies, as of June 30, 2015 was divided among the following
asset classes: CALTRUST Short term was $989 million and CALTRUST Medium Term was $790 million.
ALLOWANCE FOR UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS
Receivables of the General Fund, Electric, Wastewater and Water funds are reported net of uncollectible amounts. Total allowance provided for

$22,740,000 Revenue Certificates of Participation Series D (2002 COP) were issued to buy out the energy purchase agreement with Calpine.
In February 2001, the City entered into an energy purchase agreement (the Original Agreement) with Calpine Energy Services L.P. (Calpine) to
purchase 25 MW of energy at $65/mwh for a ten-year period beginning January 1, 2002. Since the execution of the Original Agreement, actions
of the State in connection with the energy market conditions, including the initiation of conservation programs, and other factors, have resulted in
lower electric load requirements and reduced energy costs throughout the State. As a result, the City's need for the energy purchased under the
Original Agreement to serve its load has been reduced. The Original Agreement was amended on September 4, 2002, and was divided into
three parts. The City sold its interests in the energy purchased under the Original Agreement to Calpine and nets the payments due from the
City with respect to its purchase of such energy against the payments due from Calpine with respect to its purchase of the City's rights to such
energy. Principal is payable annually on July 1 in amounts ranging from $110,000 to $5,195,000 with final payment due July 1, 2015.

(9) PENSION PLAN
Plan Descriptions
All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the City's separate Miscellaneous and Safety Plans (Plans),
agent multiple -employer defined benefit pension plans administered by the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS), which
acts as a common investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers. Benefit provisions under the Plans are
established by State statute and City resolution. CaIPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plans
regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found on the CaIPERS website.
Benefits Provided
CaIPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be
public employees and beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time employment. Members with
five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non -duty disability benefits
after 10 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the 1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement
2W Death Benefit. The cost of living adjustments for each plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees' Retirement Law.

For the year ended June 30, 2015, the City's actuarially determined contributions were as follows:
Miscellaneous Plan Safety Plan
Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 355 158
Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 134 16
Active employees 256 118
Total 745 292
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires that the employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined
on an annual basis by the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate. Funding contributions for both Plans are
determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by CaIPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the
costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to
contribute the difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
Net Pension Liability
The City's net pension liability for each Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less the pension plan's fiduciary net position. The net pension
liability of each of the Plans is measured as of June 30, 2014, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2013 rolled forward to June 30, 2014
using standard update procedures.

Based on rates of CaIPERS Experience Study
(1) Net of pension plan investment expenses, including inflation
The underlying mortality assumptions and all other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2013 valuation were based on the results of a January
2014 actuarial experience study for the period 1997 to 2011. Further details of the Experience Study can found on the CaIPERS website.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.50% for each Plan. To determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in
the calculation of a discount rate for each plan, CaIPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount rate that would be different from
the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the testing, none of the tested plans run out of assets. Therefore, the current 7.50 percent discount rate
is adequate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not necessary. The long term expected discount rate of 7.50 percent will be applied to
all plans in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF). The stress test results are presented in a detailed report that can be obtained from the
CaIPERS website.
According to GASB Statement No. 68, the long-term discount rate should be determined without reduction for pension plan administrative expense. The
7.50 percent investment return assumption used in this accounting valuation is net of administrative expenses. Administrative expenses are assumed to
be 15 basis points. An investment return excluding administrative expenses would have been 7.65 percent. Using this lower discount rate has resulted in
a slightly higher total pension liability and net pension liability. This difference was deemed immaterial by the City.
62
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
CaIPERS is scheduled to review all actuarial assumptions as part of its regular Asset Liability Management review cycle that is scheduled to be
completed in February 2018. Any changes to the discount rate will require Board action and proper stakeholder outreach. For these reasons, CaIPERS
expects to continue using a discount rate net of administrative expenses for GASB 67 and 68 calculations through at least the 2017-18 fiscal year.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best -estimate ranges of
expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. In
determining the long-term expected rate of return, CaIPERS took into account both short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the
expected pension fund cash flows. Using historical returns of all the funds' asset classes, expected compound returns were calculated over the short-
term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and long-
term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return
that arrived at the same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term and long-term returns. The expected rate of
return was then set equivalent to the single equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one percent.
The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions
applied to determine the discount rate and asset allocation. These rates of return are net of administrative expenses.

(10) POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS OTHER THAN PENSIONS
(a) Plan Description
The City sponsors a single -employer defined -benefit postemployment healthcare plan (Retiree Health Plan) to provide medical insurance
benefits to eligible retired employees and their spouses. The Plan does not issue a publicly available financial report. Medical coverage is
provided through CaIPERS healthcare program. Employees who retire from the City and receive a CaIPERS pension are eligible for
postemployment medical benefits. The City contributes the minimum amount provided under Government Code Section 22825 of the Public
Employees Medical and Hospital Care Act. In general, retirees must contribute any premium amounts in excess of the City contribution.
However, as described below, a closed group of active employees and retirees receive additional postemployment benefits.
Employees hired prior to the dates shown in the following table are allowed to convert their accumulated sick leave into postemployment medical
benefits at retirement as long as they have ten or more years of service with the City.
Group Hired prior to:
Executive Management July 1, 1994
Mid -Management July 1, 1994
Fire Mid -Management December 6, 1995
Police Mid -Management July 1, 1994
General Services July 1, 1995

June 30, 2015
Maintenance and Operators July 1, 1995
Dispatchers July 9, 1994
Police October 10, 1994
Fire December 6, 1995
The most widely elected options are the "Bank" option and the "Conversion" option. Under the "Bank" option, accumulated sick leave amounts
are translated by specified formulas into a bank amount that is then used to pay postemployment healthcare premiums until the "Bank" is
exhausted. Under the "Conversion" option, the accumulated sick leave hours are converted by specified formulas into a period of time during
which the retiree will receive postemployment benefits. The number of hours is multiplied by 50% and converted to days. The City pays one
month's premium for employee and dependents for each day after conversion. For each year of employment in excess of ten years, 2.5% is
added to the 50% before conversion. The amount of premium paid will be the same as the premium paid by the City at the time of retirement. In
the event that the premium increases, the retiree pays the difference.
The City also allows a surviving dependent of a retiree to enroll in the Sick Leave Conversion program to purchase medical insurance at the
employee only premium for the same period as if the retiree was still alive. Retirees are allowed to enroll in any of the available CaIPERS
medical plans. The CaIPERS minimum amount will continue for the life of the retiree and surviving spouse. The "Conversion" benefit will
continue until the end of a period that is based on accumulated sick leave at retirement.
(b) Funding Policy
Contribution requirements of the Retiree Health Plan are based on pay-as-you-go financing. For fiscal year 2014-15, the City contributed
$699,748, or 54.83%, of the actuarially required contributions.
(c) Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The City's annual other postemployment benefits (OPEB) cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution (ARC), an amount
actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an
ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not
to exceed thirty years.

(d) Funding Status and Funding Progress
As of January 1, 2014, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the funded status of the Retiree Health Plan was as follows:
Actuarial accrued liability (AAL)
Actuarial value of plan assets
Unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL)
$ 16,879,493
$ 16,879,493
Funded ratio (actuarial value of plan assets/AAL) 0%
Annual covered payroll (active plan members) $ 5,697,043
UAAL as percentage of annual covered payroll 296%
The schedule of funding progress, presented as RSI following the notes to the basic financial statements, presents multi-year trend information
about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability of benefits.
(e) Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence
of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts
determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contribution of the employer are subject to continual revision as
actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.
Projections of benefits for financial purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and
include types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing benefit costs between the employer and the
plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and the assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short-term
volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
In the January 1, 2014 actuarial valuation, the entry age normal cost method was used. The actuarial assumptions included a 4% discount rate
to calculate the present value of future benefit payments; a 2.75% inflation rate; an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7.5% for calendar year
2015, increasing to 8.5% for calendar year 2015, then gradually decreasing to 4.5% for calendar year 2021 and beyond; the CaIPERS minimum
benefit will increase 4% per year; a 3.00% annual rate of increase in payroll; assumed that 100% of future eligible retirees will elect to maintain
their enrollment in a CaIPERS medical plan and qualify for the City's minimum contribution; 75% of future retirees will enroll a spouse; and also
assumed that 100% of General Services, Maintenance and Operators and Dispatchers will elect the conversion option and 50% of Executive
Management, Mid Management and Police will elect the option. The conversion option is not available to IBEW and Fire retirees. The unfunded
69

actuarial accrued liability is amortized as a level percentage of expected payroll over a closed thirty year period. As of June 30, 2015, the
remaining amortization period is 24 years.
(11) CLAIMS AND BENEFITS
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to
employees; and natural disasters. The City is self-insured as discussed in the following paragraphs for which liabilities are recorded in the
Internal Service Fund -Insurance Fund.
The City is self-insured for general liability up to the first $500,000 per occurrence with claims from $500,000 to $40,000,000 per occurrence and
in the aggregate insured through the California Joint Powers Risk Management Authority. The City has not had any settlements that exceeded
its general liability insurance coverage (See Note 13).
The City is self-insured for workers' compensation up to the first $250,000 per claim. Any claims of $250,000 up to California statutory limits are
covered under a purchased policy through the membership with the Local Agency Workers' Compensation Excess Joint Powers Authority with
coverage up to $300,000,000 in the current year. The City has not had any settlements that exceeded its workers' compensation insurance
coverage (See Note 13).
The City is fully self-insured for dental and unemployment for its employees.
General liability and workers' compensation claims are administered by an outside agency and all other claims are administered by the City. The
City has accrued a liability of $8,305,887 at June 30, 2015, for all self-insured claims in the Internal Service Fund -Insurance Funds that includes
an amount for incurred but not reported claims. The liability amount is based on the requirements of GASB Statement No. 62, which requires
that a liability for claims be reported if information prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is probable that a liability has
been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. In the opinion of the City, the
amounts accrued are adequate to cover claims incurred but not reported in addition to known claims.
Changes in the self-insurance liability for the years ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 are as follows:
Current -Year
Claims and Changes Claim
Beginning in Estimates Payments Ending
FY 13-14 $ 9,117,062 $ 1,050,613 $ (1,145,916) $ 9,021,759

(12) PARTICIPATION IN JOINT VENTURES
Northern California Power Agency
The City, along with thirteen other public agencies, is a member of the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) that was formed in 1968 as a
joint powers agency. Its membership consists of eleven cities with publicly owned electric utility distribution systems, one irrigation district, one
public utility district, one port authority and three other associate member entities. NCPA is generally empowered to purchase, generate,
transmit, distribute and sell electrical energy. Members participate in the projects of NCPA on an elective basis. A commission comprising of
one representative from each member organization governs NCPA. The commission is responsible for the general management of the affairs,
property and business of NCPA. Under the direction of the general manager, the staff of NCPA is responsible for providing various
administrative, operating and planning services for NCPA and its associated power corporations.
Project Financing and Construction
NCPA's project construction and development programs have been individually financed by project revenue bonds collateralized by NCPA's
assignment of all payments, revenues and proceeds associated with its interest in each project. Each Project Participant has agreed to pay its
proportionate share of debt service and other costs of the related project, notwithstanding the suspension, interruption, interference, reduction or
curtailment of output from the project for any reason. Certain of the revenue bonds are additionally supported by municipal bond insurance credit
enhancements.
Increase in Non-defaultinq Project Participant's Original Project Entitlement Percentage
Upon the failure of any Project Participant to make any payment, which failure constitutes a default under the Member Agreement for the
projects, and except as sales and transfers are made pursuant thereto, the Member Agreements provide that Project Entitlement for each non -
defaulting Project Participant shall be automatically increased for the remaining term of the Member Agreement; pro rata with those of the non -
defaulting Project Participant thereunder; provided, however, that the sum of such increase for any non -defaulting Project Participant shall not
exceed, without written consent of such non -defaulting Project Participant, an accumulated maximum of 25% of the non -defaulting Project
Participant's original Project Entitlement Percentage Share.
General Operating Reserve with NCPA
Members of NCPA established a general operating reserve in 1992 for the purposes of providing a vehicle to fund reasonably foreseeable
contingent liabilities. It was set up primarily to provide the following advantages: minimizes the number and dollar amount of reserve that might
otherwise be funded separately in connection with NCPA's individually financed operating plants, projects and programs; provides each member
with flexibility and unilateral control over the determination of what they will fund, how they will fund it and what expenditures from the reserve will
be made on their individual behalf. It provides funding for contingent liabilities that are not budgeted but that may require significant future
expenditures. The reserve is segregated by participant and is refundable on demand by the participant.

California Joint Powers Risk Management Authority
The City is a member, along with 16 other individual cities and 4 joint powers authorities, of California Joint Powers Risk Management Authority
(CJPRMA) organized under a Joint Powers Agreement pursuant to the California Government Code for the purpose of sharing the risk of
catastrophic general liability, automobile liability and public officials' errors and omissions losses. CJPRMA has a twenty-one member Board of
Directors, including a director from the City of Lodi. The Board members elect officers of CJPRMA every two years.
The ultimate cost of the program to the City depends on the catastrophic losses of all members, as well as the City's own loss experience and
will be determined through an actuarial analysis of loss history during the ten-year period preceding the three years prior to the end of the current
program year. The City periodically pays deposits to the CJPRMA. These deposits are recorded as expenses in the year paid, as they are a
reasonable estimate of the actual cost of the program. During the year ended June 30, 2015, premiums of $93,834 were paid to CJPRMA for
the liability program.
The participants at June 30, 2015, are as follows: Alameda, Chico, Fairfield, Fremont, Livermore, Lodi, Northern California Cities Self Insurance

(14) DEFICIT IN FUND EQUITY
Internal Service Funds — Fleet Services Fund— A deficit in fund equity in the amount of $928,620 at June 30, 2015, is attributed to the net
pension obligation set up in accordance with the requirements of GASB Statement No. 68. Net pension obligation as of June 30, 2015, was
$926,452.
Internal Service Funds - Benefits Fund — A deficit in fund equity in the amount of $3,712,939 at June 30, 2015, is attributed to the net OPEB
obligation set up in accordance with the requirements of GASB Statement No. 45. Net OPEB obligation as of June 30, 2015, was $5,343,727.
The City will continue to address annual funding to eliminate the deficit during the budget process.
Electric Enterprise Fund — A deficit in fund equity in the amount of $5,023,048 at June 30, 2015, is attributed to the net pension obligation set up
in accordance with the requirements of GASB No. 68. Net pension obligation as of June 30, 2015, was $9,512,447.
(15) POLLUTION REMEDIATION OBLIGATION
The City relies on groundwater for its drinking water and in the late 1980's, PCE and TCE pollution was discovered in several municipal water
supply wells. Investigations conducted by the California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) in the early 1990's under the Well
Investigation program revealed numerous areas where TCE was discharged, or where PCE from dry cleaning operations was discharged to the
sewer system. In 1997, the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC) and the City entered into a cooperative agreement whereby the
City assumed a lead role in the cleanup and agreed to pursue legal action against potentially responsible parties (PRPs). The City's estimate of
the pollution remediation obligation was $70 million. The City has settled with all the involved parties.
The City received a draft cleanup and abatement order to investigate the discharges of waste, clean up the waste and abate the effects of the
discharges of waste in conformance with the State Water Resources Control Board's (SWRCB) Resolution No. 92-49 Policies and Procedures
79
CITY OF LODI
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (continued)
June 30, 2015
for Investigation and Cleanup and Abatement of Discharges Under the Water Code Section 13304 and with the RWQCB's Water Quality Control
Plan for the Sacramento River and San Joaquin River. The City then engaged the services of Treadwell and Rollo to advise the City on courses
of action in the preparation of feasibility studies, remedial design, and remedial action plan to comply with the technical and reporting
requirements of the SWRCB. The City's estimated total pollution remediation obligation as of June 30, 2015, is $18,592,106. This amount is an
estimate and subject to changes resulting from price increases or reductions, technology, or changes in applicable laws or regulations.
(16) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Litigation and claims — The City has fully resolved all the litigation arising out of its groundwater contamination. Settlement and rate revenues
have amassed a $16 million dollar reserve which is expected to cover all costs through the next 10 years. Costs thereafter can be effectively
managed with new rate revenues. As such, the City Attorney does not anticipate a material effect on the City's financial condition.
The City owns a 1,000 acre wastewater treatment facility known as "White Slough" approximately 5 miles west of the contiguous city limit.
Neighboring farming and dairy operations are in litigation over elevated nitrate levels in the area. Efforts to join the City in the litigation have been
so far unsuccessful but are expected to continue. It is too early at this stage to estimate liability or damages if the City is joined in the action.
However, the City Attorney does not currently expect the matter to have a material effect on the City's financial condition.
All other actions against the City are under $75,000 or have no arguable cost and will therefore not have a material financial effect on the City.
Water Purchase Agreement with Woodbridge Irrigation District — The City obtains its municipal water supply from wells located within the
City, extracting water from the underground aquifer, which is replenished in part by flows of the Mokelumne River. To avoid being wholly
dependent upon wells and the possible impacts of eventual overdraft of the groundwater supply, the City made a commitment in 2003 to
purchase surface water supply from Woodbridge Irrigation District for 40 years beginning in 2003. The agreement provides for the purchase of
6,000 acre feet per year and the City pays the District $1.2 million annually. Effective January 1, 2010, the amount payable to the District shall be
increased by two percent (2%) per year or by the change in the Consumer Price Index whichever is higher but shall not exceed five percent
(5%).
Arbitrage Earnings Rebate Liability — Arbitrage earnings are defined as income earned on the unexpended tax-exempt certificate proceeds in
excess of that which would have been earned had the moneys been invested in securities with a yield of the effective rate of the certificates.
Currently, arbitrage earnings must be rebated to the United States Treasury every five years. There is no cumulative arbitrage liability as of June
30, 2015, for any of the City's outstanding Certificates of Participation and Revenue Bonds.

CITY OF LODI
Note to the Required Supplementary Information
June 30, 2015
Budgetary Data
The City adopts an annual budget for the general and special revenue funds. These budgets are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. As part of the City's internal controls, the City maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these
budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with the legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City
Council. The accompanying financial statements present budget and actual data only of funds for which an annual budget was adopted.
The budgets for capital projects are primarily "long-term" budgets that emphasize the major programs and capital project plans extending
over a number of years. Due to the long-term nature of these projects, "annual" budget and actual comparisons are not considered
meaningful. Formal budgetary integration is not employed for debt service funds since effective budgetary control is alternatively achieved
through the bond indenture provisions. Accordingly, no budgetary information is included in the accompanying basic financial statements
for capital projects and debt service funds.
The City Council follows the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the accompanying basic financial
statements:
Original Budget
On or prior to the first regular Council meeting in June of each year, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed
Financial Plan and Budget for the fiscal year commencing July 1. The budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of
financing them.
Budgeted revenues are adopted by the City Council at the time the budget is approved. Budgeted revenues are modified when
the tax base changes, when fees are modified or when new revenue sources are identified.
Public hearings are conducted during meetings of the City Council to obtain citizens' comments. Prior to July 1, the budget is
legally enacted through passage of a resolution.
Final Budget
The final budgetary data presented in the basic financial statements reflects the following changes to the original budget:
• Budgeted expenditures represent original appropriations adjusted by budget transfers and appropriation amendments.
The legal level of budgetary control (that is, the level at which expenditures can not legally exceed the appropriated
87
amount) is at the department level. The operating budget is prepared and controlled at the department level (e.g., city
clerk, city manager, etc.) for the General Fund. Special revenue fund expenditures, including transfers out, are approved
by Council at the fund level.
• The City Manager may transfer appropriations from one activity to another within a department without approval from the
City Council. All other appropriation adjustments during the year, whether transfers, increases or decreases, require City
Council approval.
COMBINING AND INDIVIDUAL FUND STATEMENTS

Note: In 1978, the voters of the State of California passed Proposition 13 which limited property taxes to a total maximum rate of 1% based upon the assessed value of the property being taxed.
Each year, the assessed value of property may be increased by an "inflation factor" (limited to a maximum increase of 2%). With few exceptions, property is only assessed at the time that it is
sold to a new owner. At that point, the property being sold is reassessed at the purchase price. The assessed valuation data shown above represents the only data currently available with respect
to the the actual market value of taxable property and is subject to the limitations described above.

The Government Code of the State of California provides for a legal debt limit of 15% of gross assessed valuation. However, this provision was enacted when assessed valuation was based upon 25% of market value. Effective with the 1982 fiscal year, each parcel
is now assessed at 100% of market value (as of the most recent change in ownership for that parcel). The computation shown above reflect a conversion of assessed valuation data for each fiscal year from the current full valuation perspective to the 25% level that
was in effect at the time the legal debt margin was enacted by the State of California for local governments located within the state.
(1) Reflects City assessed valuation with other exemptions of $265,384 deducted for 2015.

Independent Auditor's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters
Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards
The Honorable Members of City Council
City of Lodi, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits
contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business -type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Lodi, California (City), as of and for the year ended June
30, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon
dated February 3, 2016.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine
the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal
control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies,
in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected
and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material
weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to
identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal
control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the
accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs as item 2015-001 that we consider to be a significant deficiency.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance
with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported
under Government Auditing Standards.

City's Response to Finding
The City's response to the finding identified in our audit is described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. The City's response was
not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
Purpose of the Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an
opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other
purpose.

Independent Auditor's Report on Compliance for the Major Federal Program and on
Internal Control Over Compliance Required by OMB Circular A-133
The Honorable Members of City Council
City of Lodi, California
Report on Compliance for the Major Federal Program
We have audited the City of Lodi's (City) compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement
that could have a direct and material effect on the City's major federal program for the year ended June 30, 2015. The City's major federal program is identified
in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
Management's Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for the City's major federal program based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements
referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards
applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133,
Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non -Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material
effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City's compliance with those requirements and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for the major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal
determination of the City's compliance.
Opinion on Major Federal Program
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material
effect on its major federal program for the year ended June 30, 2015.

Report on Internal Control over Compliance
Management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements
referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered the City's internal control over compliance with the types of requirements
that could have a direct and material effect on the major federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for the major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with
OMB Circular A-133, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express
an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over compliance.
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in
the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal
program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over
compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be
prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of
deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in
internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify
all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal
control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of
that testing based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-133. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS (Continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015
Section II — Financial Statement Findings
Reference Number: 2015-001
Criteria:
Under generally accepted accounting principles, internal service funds are expressly designed to function as cost -reimbursement devices. That is, an internal
service fund is simply a means of accumulating costs related to a given activity on an accrual basis so that the costs can subsequently be allocated to the
benefitting funds in the form of fees and charges.
Condition:
The City is not charging City funds their share of the City's Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) costs accumulating in its Benefits Internal Service Fund.
Context:
The Benefits Internal Service Fund's deficit net position balances were $1,078,724, $1,930,874, $2,934,664, $3,621,665, $3,203,516, $3,568,267, and
$3,712,939 as of June 30, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2015, respectively.
Effect:
This condition resulted in an increase of $144,672 in the deficit net position of the Benefits Internal Service Fund during the year ended June 30, 2015.
Cause:
The City is only charging City funds their share of the City's OPEB costs that it has chosen to pay under a pay-as-you-go basis.
Recommendation:
Under generally accepted accounting principles, the City should either charge City funds their share of the OPEB costs incurred in its Benefits Internal Service
Fund as opposed to limiting the charges to those costs actually paid, or report the OPEB liability in other City funds like is done for the net pension liability.
Management Response and Corrective Action:
The City's practice of reflecting the total liability and expense of the OPEB program in the Benefits Internal Service Fund enhances transparency in reporting by
showing the impact of this reporting requirement in one location. The deficit net position will continue until the City fully funds the actuarially calculated
liability and expense that it is required to record. Staff will bring forward the deficit amount each budget cycle for City Council consideration.

Condition:

30, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, and 2014, respectively.
Effect:
This condition resulted in an increase of $364,751 in the deficit net position of the Benefits Internal Service Fund during the year ended June 30, 2014.
Cause:
The City is only charging City funds their share of the City's OPEB costs that it has chosen to pay under a pay-as-you-go basis.
Recommendation:
Under generally accepted accounting principles, the City needs to charge City funds their share of the OPEB costs incurred in its Benefits Internal Service Fund
as opposed to limiting the charges to those costs actually paid.
Management Response and Corrective Action:
The City's practice of reflecting the total liability and expense of the OPEB program in the Benefits Internal Service Fund enhances transparency in reporting by
showing the impact of this reporting requirement in one location. The deficit net position will continue until the City fully funds the actuarially calculated
liability and expense that it is required to record. Staff will bring forward the deficit amount each budget cycle for City Council consideration.
Status:
During the year ended June 30, 2015, the Benefits Internal Service Fund's deficit net position increased by $144,672, therefore this recommendation continues as
finding 2015-001.
151
CITY OF LODI
SCHEDULE OF PRIOR YEAR FINDINGS AND QUESTONED COSTS (Continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2015
Reference Number: 2014-002
Criteria:
Under generally accepted accounting principles, costs directly related to the acquisition or construction of capital assets, should be capitalized and not expensed.
The City defines capital assets as assets with an initial individual cost of more than $3,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of two years.
Condition:
Transactions relating to the City's water meter capital asset project were expensed.
Cause:
The condition is a result of the timing of the City's year-end close process. The City runs a capital report identifying the City's capital asset activity and
reconciles the activity to general ledger activity to ensure all costs were captured. However, costs relating to a capital project were accrued and reported in the
general ledger subsequent to the previously mentioned reconciliation, thus project costs were improperly reported as an expense and not capitalized.
Effect:
As a result of this condition, a significant audit adjustment for the Water Fund debiting "capital assets" on the Statement of Net Position and crediting "services
and supplies" expense on the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Net Position for $1,499,302 was recorded.
Recommendation:
The City should improve its year-end procedures for identifying capital projects to ensure proper financial reporting.
Management Response and Corrective Action:
The City is currently transitioning to a new financial system which includes capital assets and project management modules. These two modules will not only
streamline the year-end capitalization process, it will also ensure proper financial reporting of the City's capital assets.
Status:
No transactions that should have been capitalized were determined to have been expensed during the year, therefore we consider this recommendation
implemented.

We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business -types activities,
each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Lodi, California (City), as
of and for the year ended June 30, 2015, and have issued our report thereon dated February 3, 2016.
Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under
generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and OMB Circular A-133, as
well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated
such information in our Audit Service Plan presented to you on September 29, 2015. Professional
standards also require that we communicate to you the information related to our audit that is included in
the Required Communications section of this report.
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the City as of and for the year ended
June 30, 2015, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America,
we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the
financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's
internal control Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal
control.
During our audit for the year ended June 30, 2015, we followed up on our recommendations to address
conditions we identified during previous years' audits. The status of those recommendations is included
in the Status of Prior Year Recommendations section of this report. This report does not affect our report
dated February 3, 2016, on the basic financial statements of the City.
We also noted certain matters that we reported to management of the City of Lodi in a separate letter
dated February 3, 2016.
This letter is intended solely for the information and use of City Council and management and is not
intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.
We would like to thank the City's management and staff for the courtesy and cooperation extended to us
during the course of our engagement. We have discussed our comments and suggestions with

Required Communications
For the Year Ended June 30, 2015
Significant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant
accounting policies used by the City are described in Note (1) to the financial statements. As described in
Note (1)(w) to the financial statements, the City implemented Governmental Accounting Standards Board
(GASB) Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions — An amendment of GASB
Statement No. 27 and GASB Statement No. 71, Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to
the Measurement Date — an amendment of GASB Statement No. 68. These statements address the
accounting and financial reporting requirements for the City's pension benefits. As of July 1, 2014, the
City restated the beginning net position to record the beginning deferred outflows of resources related to
pension contributions and net pension liability as follows:
Governmental
Activities
Net position - beginning, as previously reported $ 119,822,255
Change in accounting principles (80,965,314)

18,644,900 $ (1,372,437)
We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative
guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the
proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are
based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about
future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the
financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ
significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimates affecting the City's financial statements
were:
• The self-insurance liability is based on the development of amounts from various consultants'
actuarial studies.
• The pollution remediation obligation is based upon estimated cash flows determined by an
engineering consultant's remedial action plan.
• The actuarial pension data contained in Note (9) to the financial statements and required
supplementary information (unaudited) is based on actuarial valuations performed in accordance
with the parameters set forth in GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for
Pensions.

CITY OF LODI, CALIFORNIA
Report to City Council
Required Communications (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2015
• The actuarial data for other postemployment benefits contained in Note (10) to the financial
statements and required supplementary information (unaudited) is based on actuarial calculations
performed in accordance with GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by
Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions.
We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop these estimates in determining that they
are reasonable in relation to each opinion unit's financial statements.
The financial statements disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our
audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the
audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management.
Management has corrected all such misstatements. In addition, none of the misstatements detected as a
result of audit procedures and corrected by management were material, either individually or in the
aggregate, to each opinion unit's financial statements.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a financial
accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be
significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such
disagreements arose during the course of the audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management
representation letter dated February 3, 2016.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting
matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves
application of an accounting principle to the governmental unit's financial statements or a determination
of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards
require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant
facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing
standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City's auditors. However, these
discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a
condition to our retention.

For the Year Ended June 30, 2015
Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to management's discussion and analysis, the schedules of changes
in net pension liability and related ratios, the schedule of pension contributions, the schedule of funding
progress for the OPEB plan, and the schedule of revenues, expenditures and change in fund balance —
budget and actual — for the General Fund, which are required supplementary information (RSI) that
supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management
regarding the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with
management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we
obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We did not audit the RSI and do not express
an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
We were engaged to report on the combining and individual fund statements and schedules and the
schedule of expenditures of federal awards, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI.
With respect to this supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated
the form, content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it
has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our
audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the
underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements
themselves.
We were not engaged to report on the introductory, statistical, and continuing disclosures sections, which
accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. We did not audit or perform other procedures on this
other information, and we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

CITY OF LODI, CALIFORNIA
Report to City Council
Status of Prior Year Recommendations
For the Year Ended June 30, 2015
The following is a summary of the status of prior years' recommendations.
FROM YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2005
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT)
Computer Operations — Disaster Preparedness/Business Continuity Plans
Condition
The City currently has no disaster preparedness or business continuity plans in place.
Recommendation
The City should work to develop a comprehensive disaster preparedness and business continuity plan.
The plan, upon completion, should be thoroughly tested and provisions made for periodic reviews of the
plan.
Current Year Status
The City performs disaster recovery by utilizing Dell Appsure for local backups. The City just started
utilizing AWS (Amazon Web Services) for off site hosting of backups off the Appsure.
The City developed a disaster preparedness plan in 2007, which defines the recovery process. But there is
no evidence that the plan has been fully tested. Since 2007, much has changed with the City's
information systems environment and, therefore the current plan is in need of an update. Therefore, our
recommendation remains in the process of implementation.
Current Year Management Response
The City is working towards a new network architecture that will minimize the risk of network failure.
Using distributed technology within the data center as well as distributed services on the City wide area
network (WAN). Completion of the new architecture will occur by 2017.

Report to City Council
Status of Prior Year Recommendations (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2015
FROM YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2004
CAPITAL ASSETS
Condition
During our audit of the City's financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2004, we noted that the
acquisition and construction of capital assets is maintained on a spreadsheet, outside of the City's
accounting system, which can lead to inaccurate recording and depreciation of capital assets.
Recommendation
We recommend that the City place into operation the JDE fixed asset module that records the City's
capital assets and automatically calculates depreciation. The system would support the City's deprecation
method and automatically post accumulated depreciation expense to the General Ledger module for a
specified accounting period.
The system provides methods to track assets, their beginning cost, current value, and method of
depreciation. Some of the advantages include:
1. Flexible Asset Numbering System — an unlimited number of assets can be maintained. The
assets can be grouped by many types of categories for reporting purposes.
2. User Defined Asset Control - Accumulated depreciation, depreciation expense and asset
master accounts can be user specified for each asset.
3. Reports - variety of reports can be produced including a listing of all assets by type, category
and description, method of depreciation, and all other information maintained in the master
file. The module could be programmed to also print reports listing assets with original cost
and current book value plus calculated depreciation for a specified period.
To reduce operating overhead, the City should consider hiring temporary staff for data entry into the
capital assets module.
Current Year Status
The City has implemented a new financial system, which included a capital asset module. This module
records the City's capital assets and automatically calculates depreciation. As such, the recommendation
is considered implemented.

the responsibility of those parties specified in this report. Consequently, we make no representation
regarding the sufficiency of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report
has been requested or for any other purpose.
The procedures performed and our findings were as follows:
1. We obtained the completed worksheets setting forth the calculations necessary to establish
the City's appropriations limit and compared the limit and annual adjustment factors included
in those worksheets to the limit and annual adjustment factors that were adopted by resolution
of the City Council. We also compared the population and inflation options included in the
aforementioned worksheets to those that were selected by a recorded vote of the City
Council.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of this procedure.
2. For the accompanying Appropriations Limit Worksheet, we added the appropriations limit
for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014 to the annual adjustment amount, and compared the
resulting amount to the appropriations limit for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015.
Finding: No exceptions were noted as a result of this procedure.
