<br />The City's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business -type activities as of December 31, 2015
<br />amounts to approximately $116 million (net of accumulated depreciation).
<br />The governmental activities show an increase of $3,439,088 in capital assets attributable to an increase in
<br />capitalized projects. Business -type activities show a decrease of $1,087,223 in capital assets. This decrease is
<br />attributable to depreciation surpassing current year additions causing a reduction in capital assets. Additional
<br />details of capital asset activity for the year can be found in Note 4 of the notes to basic financial statements.
<br />Long -Term Liabilities — The Debt Service Funds account for the accumulation of resources to finance all of
<br />the City's general obligation bonds. The revenue sources for these funds include annual tax levies and special
<br />assessments. At year-end, major debt service fund balance was $725,429 and non -major debt service fund
<br />balance was $996,367 for a total of $1,721,796 in fund balance restricted for debt service.
<br />The following table summarizes the City's long-term liabilities:

<br />During the current fiscal year, the City saw a decrease of $3,695,000 in bonds and certificates. The City had
<br />two debt issuances during the current year. The $3,880,000 General Obligation Capital Improvement Plan
<br />Bonds, Series 2015A were issued to finance the construction of Fire Station #2. The Series 2015B, were
<br />$1,205,000 General Obligation Street Reconstruction Bonds used to finance the road reconstruction of Garnet
<br />Street and 168' Avenue. The City's 2012B Residence at the COR bond was paid off early in July 2015 which
<br />was the major contributor for the reduction in bonds and certificates. Even though new personnel was added in
<br />2015, the compensated absence liability increased only slightly by $4,518 due to the retirement of a few long-
<br />term employees. Other Post -Employment Benefits (OPEB) increased $55,017 due to the annual OPEB costs
<br />exceeding contributions as actuarially determined with the parameters of GASB Statement Nos. 43 and 45.
