<br />Governmental Activities - Governmental activities account for 92% growth in the City's net assets (approx.
<br />$1.8 million). Charges for services increased by 8 %, or $140,264. Property taxes decreased $473,148
<br />(approximately 4 percent) during the year. This percentage change reflects the current economy that stills sees
<br />a large number of foreclosures and job loss. Investment earnings also decreased nearly $380,000 or 30% as a
<br />result of a less favorable investment environment due to financial markets. Capital grants and contributions
<br />increased 48% or $1,359,025 due to an increase of funds received from the county for more county road
<br />improvement projects than the prior year. The culture and recreation function experienced a $218,602 increase
<br />(21 percent) in expenses attributable to the city's Draw Park coming online in 2011. The general government
<br />function experienced a $560,925 increase (11 percent) in expenses. The increase in governmental expenditures
<br />was due to administrative expenditures - legal, development and fmancial in relationship to selling a parcel in
<br />the COR area and a Joint Powers Agreement with the County in which the city contributed for a share of
<br />improvements. The highways and streets function experienced a $337,376 increase (6 percent) in expenses.
<br />This increase was due to the construction of a county road in which the city contributed in the cost of
<br />construction, but does not own. Transfers increased significantly due to an internal transfer from the water
<br />utility fund to a governmental fund for internal borrowing of municipal center debt.
