Halinka, CPA/CMA INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM: REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE: AND REPORT ON THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS REOUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE To the City Council and Management City of Ramsey, Minnesota REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL PROGRAM We have audited the City of Ramsey, Minnesota's (the City) compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the City's major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2017. The City's major federal programs are identified in the Summary of Audit Results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. MANAGEMENT'S RESPONSIBILITY Management is responsible for compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of its federal awards applicable to its federal programs. AUDITOR'S RESPONSIBILITY Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the City's major federal programs 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 the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those standards and the Uniform Guidance 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 each major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City's compliance.
