To the Honorable Mayor,
City Council, and City Manager
City of Euless, Texas
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of City of Euless,
Texas, for the year ended September 30, 1996, we considered its internal control
structure in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide assurance on
the internal control structure.
At the request of management, we performed a review of the recreation operations
in order to provide recommendations for improvement. We have the following
comments related to our current year review:
Internal Control
The Softball World operations do not have written internal control
policies and procedures.
We recommend that the internal control policies and procedures
that are being developed for the Softball World operations be
written and distributed to personnel. This will familiarize
employees with the policies and procedures of which they should be
aware as they are performing their duties and provide a source of
information for future employees.
Bank Deposits
The responsibilities of recording and making the deposit for the
Softball World concessions are not segregated.
We recommend that the recording and deposit functions be
performed by different people. This segregation of duties provides
more accountability for the completeness and accuracy of the
deposit.
A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of
one or more of the internal control structure elements does not reduce to a
relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities in amounts that would be
material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be

detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing
their assigned functions.
Our consideration of the internal control structure would not necessarily disclose
all matters in the internal control structure that might be reportable conditions and,
accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all reportable conditions that are also
considered to be a material weakness as defined above. However, none of the
items described above is believed to be a material weakness.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management.
We would be pleased to discuss this letter with you at greater length and assist you
in the implementation of the recommendations should you so desire. We would
like to express our appreciation for the excellent cooperation and assistance
received from your staff during the course of the audit and the related operations
review.

January 23, 1997
Honorable Mayor & City Council,
City Manager, &
Citizens of Euless:
T H E CI T Y OF
EULESS
t
The Finance Department of the City of Euless is pleased to submit the Comprehensive Annual
Financial Report of the City of Euless, Texas for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996.
Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data, and the completeness and fairness of the
presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the City. To the best of our knowledge and
belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is reported in a manner
designed to present fairly the financial position, results of operations, and cash flows of the
various funds and account groups of the City. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to
gain an understanding of the City's financial activities have been included.
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented in three sections: Introductory,
Financial and Statistical. The Introductory section includes this transmittal letter, the City's
organizational chart and a list of principal officials. The financial section includes the general
purpose financial statements and supplemental statements and schedules, as well as the report
of independent auditors. The Statistical section includes selected financial and demographic
information, generally presented on a multi -year basis.
GENERAL INFORMATION
Euless was settled about 1881 and named for Elisha Adams Euless, a cotton farmer and
pioneer. In 1915 the population was 25 and in 1960, 4235. Euless has changed significantly
from a rural farming community to a progressive urban area of approximately 40,000. The City
of Euless is located in Northeast Tarrant County directly between the cities of Dallas and Fort
Worth. Euless is also adjacent to the world's largest and second busiest airport --Dallas/Fort
Worth International.
The City provides to its citizens those services which have proven to be necessary and which
can be provided by the City at the least cost. Included in these services under general
government and proprietary funds are traditional city functions such as police and fire protection,
emergency ambulance service, road and traffic signal maintenance, water and sewer
operations, drainage system, parks and recreational facilities, courts, and library services. Other
services include planning land use, building inspection, and traffic control. Internal services of
the City include Insurance, Risk Management, Equipment Replacement, and Cash/Debt
Management.

All funds and account groups are discussed in depth in the notes to the financial statements.
Even though associations with other entities such as Hurst -Euless -Bedford Independent School
District exist, the City Council has no financial accountability, or control over the school district or
the other entities referred to in Note 1 of the financial statements. Accordingly, financial data for
the school district and others are not included in the combined financial statements in this report.
The Euless Development Corporation, established in Fiscal Year 93 and the Crime Control and
Prevention District established in Fiscal Year 96 are presented as blended component units of
the City of Euless.
ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND OUTLOOK
As our City Manager stated in his 1996 reflections in his report entitled Share The Vision:
Euless has experienced quite an exciting year during 1996. We have made a lot
of things happen in this city, including the opening of the largest library in
Northeast Tarrant County, the construction of one of the largest athletic complexes
in the state, the building of a premier, championship golf course and executive
center, and the expansion of retail stores and subdivisions located throughout the
city. Next year will be a big year for Euless with the opening of Texas Star,
Executive Center at Texas Star and Parks at Texas Star. We are all very excited
about the prospects of these projects and the positive impact they will have on
Euless.
Although I am proud of all of these projects, I am also proud that we still focus on
the basics of serving citizens. Our commitment to providing excellent service was
evident throughout this past year not only to our citizens, but to other organizations
as well, which is why we received recognition by Texas Business Magazine as the
second best managed city in Texas with a population under 50,000.
In 1996, Euless welcomed numerous new businesses to our community including: MacFrugels,
Luxury Linens, Mid -Cities Deli, Euless Kitchen, Gators, Eberle Manufacturing and Hardcoat
Technologies. Also, approximately 157 certificates of occupancy were issued for new and
expanding business in Euless in 1996. Our Highway 10 corridor experienced phenomenal
growth with over 175,000 square feet of new business space!
Enhanced growth opportunities in the Euless area are projected as we progress through the
1990's as the opening of a new Albertson's prototype of 65,000 square feet kicks off this trend.
A new hotel "MicroTel" has also announced plans to locate in Euless. The varied types of
economic growth in and around the Euless area will enable city officials to provide a better level
of service and quality of life to both our corporate and residential citizens.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
Budget. During preparation of the 1996 fiscal budget, both elected and appointed officials
worked together to identify and address several key programs needed to adequately serve the
public, either through quality of life issues or technological advancements. Building upon the
strategic committees that were created in 1990 by utilizing a vast number of citizens for
ii
assistance in the development of Euless' goals and objectives, the Budget was developed.
Specific objectives may be summarized as follows: Maintenance of service levels to citizens;
continuation of competitiveness in the employee pay plan; absorption of legislative mandates;
and continuation of City Council directives, including repair and/or replacing deteriorating
infrastructures; identifying alternative sources of funds; and improving external and internal
communications.
Progress Report. Fiscally, the year 1996 has proven successful. City Council members were
able to maintain the current rates for water and sewer services while decreasing the tax rate to
.606 per $100 valuation. Furthermore, a merit -based raise package, as well as, no increases in
the City's or the employees' costs for health care was achieved. These benefits were made
possible through the low rate of claims filed by employees and a positive safety record.
Individual and departmental successes have improved city services and enhanced growth in our
community. Among the many accomplishments during 1996, the new Euless Library opened
July 1; Public Works completed three fourths of the meter change -out program; Fire Department
installed new Micro Siren Warning Systems in local elementary schools; Street Department
personnel overlaid approximately 921,470 square feet of streets and installed approximately
5,400 linear feet of sidewalk; Softball World hosted the largest Mixed World USSSA Softball
Championship in October with over 35 states represented; Police Department significantly
increased Neighborhood Watch Groups to over 75 active groups; the Certificate of Excellence
for Investment Policy was awarded to the Finance Department by the National Government
Treasurers Organization; Parks Department personnel recycled over 4,000 Christmas trees; and
EMS improved the collections program with on-line technology.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
General. Management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal
control structure designed to ensure that the City's assets are protected from loss, theft or
misuse and to ensure that adequate accounting data are compiled to allow for the preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal
control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that these
objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of a
control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the evaluation of costs and
benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
The City's accounting records for the Enterprise and Internal Service Funds are maintained on
an accrual basis whereby revenues and expenses are recorded in the accounting period in
which they are earned or incurred. The remainder of the City's funds are maintained on the
modified accrual basis whereby revenue is recorded when measurable and available, and
expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred, except for interest on general long-term
debt, which is recognized when due.
As set forth in the City's charter Article VII Sections 2-9, the City Council adopts an annual
budget. Detail control is accomplished by maintaining expenditures by line item account within
each operating department within each operating fund at the authorization of the City Manager.
Financial reports are available to division managers monthly.
iii
Further explanations of the basis of accounting for all fund types, account groups, and the City's
budgetary controls are furnished in the accompanying Notes to the Financial Statements.
General Governmental Functions. Revenues for general governmental functions and general
debt service totaled $16,017,192 in 1996, an increase of 8.37% over 1995. The increase in
revenues is primarily attributable to: increased activity in Municipal Courts and its court of
record; property taxes, sales tax receipts, license -permits for new development and grant
monies. The amount of revenue from various sources and the changes from the previous year
are reflected in the following table:

In addition to the above general revenue, $635,619 was transferred from various funds,
primarily Enterprise funds for general and administrative cost reimbursement.
Expenditures for general governmental purposes and general debt service totaled $15,494,114,
an increase of 13.55% over 1995. Changes in levels of expenditures for major functions of the
City over the preceding year are shown in the following table:

TOTAL EXPENDITURES $15.494.114

The increase in Streets is primarily due to increased personnel and materials costs associated
with the street maintenance overlay program. Parks/Recreation/Library increased due to
increased personnel costs. Nondepartmental expenditures increased primarily due to the
iv
funding of non -recurring capital items, including computer equipment, fire truck reserve, transfer
to parks CIP and city-wide building remodeling projects.

Enterprise Funds. While the number of water and sewer customers was relatively constant
with prior years, the City's water and sewer utility showed an increase in water revenues as a
result of a dry year and more accurate meter reading (meter change -out program).
Comparative data for the past two fiscal years are presented in the following table.
1996 1995
Income before operating transfers $1,331,796 $ 676,104
Net revenue available for debt service $2,402,055 $1,760,109
Debt service requirements $ 521,480 $ 518,430
Coverage 4.61 times 3.40 times
The Drainage Utility System was created in FY91 in compliance with new legislation designed to
address drainage issues in the communities across the state. Fees were effective January 1,
1991. In FY96, $550,152 of revenue was generated and $52,876 of the costs were incurred.
Capital improvements were initiated in FY92 relating to the Drainage Utility System and continue
through FY96.
The Recreation Fund has been segregated from the general operating budget of the City to
allow the Midway Recreation Center and the class structures to operate as an enterprise.
Revenue of $729,346 was generated, while class expenses were $709,975. Both experienced
an increase from prior year activity, yet a small reserve remains. Euless' Arbor Daze is funded
in this account.
Softball World Fund was added this fiscal year to promote adult softball programs through
league, tournament, and special events. Revenue of $655,691 was collected for league fees,
concession sales, and sale of sporting goods. Expenses were $490,597. Capital improvements
were incurred during FY96 to enhance and maintain the recently acquired complex and promote
major tournament activity.
The Golf Course Fund and Athletic Complex have been established as enterprise funds and are
expected to start generating revenue in fiscal year 1997.
Debt Administration. General obligation debt, which is directly tax supported, totaled
$7,261,586 at September 30, 1996. Certain ratios are useful indicators of the City's debt
position for municipal management, citizens and investors. Data for the City is as follows: Net
bonded debt - $6,994,974; ratio of net bonded debt to assessed value is 0.62 and net bonded
debt per capita is $171. Tables 8-12 in the Statistical Section of this report present more
detailed information about the debt position of the City.
Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, secured by the January 1993 referendum for half cent sales tax for
parks, library and economic development, were issued in 1994 and 1996 for a total of
$10,340,000.
Revenue bonds, which are secured by the net revenues of the Water and Sewer Enterprise
Fund, totaled $17,605,426 at September 30, 1996.
The City has maintained its A+ and A Ratings on general obligation and revenue debt from
Standard and Poors and has maintained its Al and A Ratings on this debt from Moody's
Investors Service.
Cash Management. Compliance, safety, liquidity and yield are the program goals. Safety and
security of the City's funds are of primary importance in all investment activities, with staff
following policies and laws when investing funds. Interest income generated for the year for all
funds was $1,972,468. Interest is an important non -tax revenue for the City. Throughout 1996,
every $1.00 the City had to invest, approximately $1.01 was invested. The program continues
to provide a positive revenue source for the City.
Insurance and Benefits. The City provides employee medical coverage on a self -insured
basis. Premiums are paid into the Insurance Fund by all other funds and by the City's
employees and are available to pay claims, claim reserves and administrative costs of the
program. An excess coverage insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of $60,000
and aggregate claims in excess of $1,083,333.
The City maintains self-insurance for worker's compensation. Contributions are made to the
Risk Management Fund by other funds and are available to pay claims, claims reserves and
administrative costs of the program. An excess coverage insurance policy covers individual
claims in excess of $300,000.
vi
General Fixed Assets. The general fixed assets of the City are used in the performance of
general governmental functions and exclude the fixed assets of the Enterprise and Internal
Service Funds. As of September 30, 1996, the general fixed assets of the City amounted to
$20,391,610. This amount represents the original cost of the assets and is considerably less
than their replacement value. Depreciation of general fixed assets is not recognized in the City's
accounting system.
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit. The City Charter per Article VII Section 11 requires an annual audit to be
made of the books of account, financial records and transactions of all administrative
departments of the City by a certified public accounting firm. This requirement has been
complied with and the report of independent auditors has been included in this report.
Award. 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 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1995. The
Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition given in the area of government
reporting by the GFOA. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, the City published
an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report whose
contents conform to program standards. Such reports must satisfy both generally accepted
accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid
for a period of one year only. We believe that our current comprehensive annual financial report
continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program's requirements and we are submitting
it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
Acknowledgments. The preparation of this report on a timely basis could not be accomplished
without the efficient and dedicated services of many individuals. I would like to express my
appreciation to all members of the Finance Department, especially those in the Accounting
Office, who assisted and contributed to its preparation. I would also like to thank the City
Manager's Office and the members of the City Council for their interest and support in planning
and conducting the financial operations of the City in a responsible and progressive manner.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor,
City Council and City Manager
City of Euless, Texas
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the City of
Euless, Texas as of and for the year ended September 30, 1996, as listed in the table of
contents. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose
financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and
Govemment 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 of material misstatement. An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the general purpose financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We
believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of the City of Euless, Texas at
September 30, 1996, and the results of its operations and cash flows of its proprietary
fund types for the year then ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated
December 6, 1996 on our consideration of the City of Euless, Texas' internal control
structure, and a report dated December 6, 1996 on its compliance with laws and
regulations.
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose
financial statements taken as a whole. The combining and individual fund and account
group statements and schedules and the statistical section listed in the table of contents
are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the
general purpose financial statements of the City of Euless, Texas. The combining and
individual fund and account group statements and schedules have been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements and,
in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the general purpose
financial statements taken as a whole. The statistical section has not been subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the general purpose financial statements
and, accordingly, we express no opinion on such data.

CITY OF EULESS, TEXAS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements of the City of Euless (the "City") have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to government units. The
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard -setting body for
establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The City's significant
accounting policies are described below:
Reporting Entity
The combined financial statements of the City include the primary government organizations, for
which the primary government is financially accountable, and other organizations for which the
nature and significance of their relationship with the primary government are such that exclusion
would cause the reporting entity's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete.
The definition of the reporting entity is based primarily on the notion of financial accountability.
A primary government is financially accountable for the organizations that make up its legal
entity. It is also financially accountable for legally separate organizations if its officials appoint a
voting majority of an organization's governing body and either it is able to impose its will on that
organization or there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or
to impose specific financial burdens on, the primary government. A primary government may
also be financially accountable for governmental organizations that are fiscally dependent on it.
A primary government has the ability to impose its will on an organization if it can significantly
influence the programs, projects, or activities of, or the level of services performed or provided
by, the organization. A financial benefit or burden relationship exists if the primary government
(a) is entitled to the organization's resources; (b) is legally obligated or has otherwise assumed
the obligation to finance the deficits of, or provide financial support to, the organization; or (c) is
obligated in some manner for the debt of the organization.
Some organizations are included as component units because of their fiscal dependency on the
primary government. An organization is fiscally dependent on the primary government if it is
unable to adopt its budget, levy taxes or set rates or charges, or issue bonded debt without
approval by the primary government.
The following entities were found to be component units of the City and are included in the
combined financial statements:
Euless Development Corporation - The City created the Corporation for the purpose of
promoting parks, library services, and economic development within the City. The
Corporation's governing body is substantially the same as the governing body of the City of
Euless. There are seven directors, four of whom are members of the City Council. The
remaining three members are residents of the City. All Board members are appointed by the
City Council. The Corporation is authorized to sell bonds or other forms of indebtedness.
Upon dissolution of the Corporation, the assets of the Corporation shall be distributed to the
City of Euless, Texas. The Corporation provides all of its services to the City of Euless,
Texas.

Reporting Entity - continued
A blended presentation has been used to report the financial information of this component
unit. The financial statements for the Corporation were obtained from the Board of Directors.
Crime Control District - The City created the District for the purpose of proactively combating
rising crime rates by setting up additional crime prevention and rehabilitation programs within
the City. The District's governing body is substantially the same as the governing body of the
City of Euless. There are seven directors, four of whom are members of the City Council.
The remaining three members are residents of the City. All Board members are appointed by
the City Council. The District is authorized to sell bonds or other forms of indebtedness.
Upon dissolution of the District, the assets of the District shall be distributed to the City of
Euless, Texas. The District provides all of its services to the City of Euless, Texas. A
blended presentation has been used to report the financial information of this component unit.
The financial statements for the District were obtained from the Board of Directors.
Fund Accounting
The City uses funds and account groups to report its financial position, the results of its
operations and its cash flows. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance
and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain City functions or
activities.
A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self -balancing set of accounts. An account group,
on the other hand, is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountability for certain
assets and liabilities that are not recorded in the funds because they do not directly affect net
expendable available financial resources.
Funds are classified into three categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. Each
category, in turn, is divided into separate "fund types."
Governmental funds are used to account for all or most of the City's general activities, including
the collection and disbursement of earmarked moneys (special revenue funds), the acquisition
or construction of general fixed assets (capital projects funds) and the servicing of general long-
term debt (debt service funds). The general fund is used to account for all activities of the City
not accounted for in some other fund.
Proprietary funds are used to account for activities similar to those found in the private sector,
where the determination of net income is necessary or useful to sound financial administration.
Goods or services from such activities can be provided either to outside parties (enterprise
funds) or to other departments or agencies within the City (internal service funds).

CITY OF EULESS, TEXAS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Basis of Accounting
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement
focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement
focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are included in
the balance sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other
financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
All proprietary funds are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. With this
measurement focus, all assets and all liabilities associated with the operation of these funds are
included on the balance sheet. Fund equity (i.e., assets net of liabilities) is segregated into contributed
capital and retained earnings components. Proprietary fund -type operating statements present
increases (e.g., revenues) and decreases (e.g., expenses) in net assets.
The proprietary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are
recognized when they are earned, and expenses are recognized when they are incurred. The City
applies all GASB pronouncements, FASB Statements and interpretations, APB Opinions and ARB's
issued on or before November 30, 1989. The City has elected to apply only GASB pronouncements
issued after November 30, 1989 for proprietary activity.
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by all governmental fund types and agency funds.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual
(i.e., when they become both measurable and available). "Measurable" means the amount of the
transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon
enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Expenditures are recorded when
the related fund liability is incurred. Interest on general long-term debt is recorded as a fund liability
when due or when amounts have been accumulated in the debt service fund for payments to be made
early in the following year.
Revenues considered susceptible to accrual are property taxes, gross receipts tax and interest
revenue. Sales taxes collected and held by the state at year-end on behalf of the City also are
recognized as revenue. Fine and permit revenues are not susceptible to accrual because generally
they are not measurable until received in cash.
The accrual basis of accounting is utilized by Proprietary Fund Types. Under this method, revenues
are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred or estimated.
The City reports deferred revenue on its combined balance sheet. Deferred revenues arise when a
potential revenue does not meet both the "measurable" and "available" criteria for recognition in the
current period. Deferred revenues also arise when resources are received by the government before
it has legal claim to them, such as grant monies received prior to qualifying expenditures being
incurred. In subsequent periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met, or when the City has
a legal claim to the resources, the liability for deferred revenue is removed from the combined balance
sheet and revenue is recognized. Deferred revenues primarily include delinquent property taxes and
unexpended revenues for capital projects.

Budgetary Data
The City Council follows these procedures in establishing budgetary data reflected in the financial
statements:
1. Prior to August 1, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget
for the fiscal year commencing the following October 1. The operating budget includes
proposed expenditures and means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayers' comments.
3. Prior to September 21, the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance and a
budgetary report is prepared.
4. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departments within
any fund; however, any revision that alters the total expenditures of any fund must be
approved by the City Council. The budget presented reflects revisions made by the City
Manager during the year. Total expenditures approved by the City Council have not been
altered. The legal level of control is at the fund level.
5. A budget is legally adopted for the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds on a basis
consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Formal budgetary integration is
employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund and Special
Revenue Funds. Appropriations and encumbrances lapse at year-end.
6. Formal budgetary integration is not employed for the Debt Service Funds because effective
budgetary control is alternatively achieved through general obligation bond indenture
provisions.
7. Budgetary data for the Capital Projects Funds has not been presented in the accompanying
combined financial statements as such funds are budgeted over the life of the respective
project and not on an annual basis. Accordingly, formal budgetary integration of the Capital
Projects Funds is not employed and comparison of actual results of operations to budgetary
data for such funds is not presented.
8. Appropriated budgets for the Proprietary Funds are also adopted, but have not been
presented since reporting on such budgets is not legally required.

Deposits and Investments
Substantially all operating cash, deposits, and short-term investments are maintained in
consolidated cash and investment accounts. Related interest income is allocated to the various
funds based primarily on ownership by each fund of specific investments. Cash equivalents
consist of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or Tess.
For purposes of the combined statement of cash flows, the City considers all highly liquid
investments (including cash equivalents reported as restricted assets of $1,053,324 and
$977,445 at September 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively) as set forth above to be cash
equivalents.
Short-term investments consist of certificates of deposits and U.S. Government securities with
original maturities of three months or more. These investments are stated at cost or amortized
cost.
State statutes authorize the City to invest in obligations of the U.S. Government or its agencies;
obligations of the State of Texas or its agencies; and certain other obligations, repurchase
agreements, money market mutual funds and certificates of deposits within established criterion.
Taxes
Property taxes attach as an enforceable lien on property as of January 1, are levied for
appropriation for the fiscal year beginning on October 1, are due October 1, and become
delinquent on February 1. Property taxes are accrued based on the period for which they are
levied and available. Delinquent taxes estimated to be not available are treated as deferred
revenue. Property taxes for cities, including those applicable to debt service, are limited by the
Texas Constitution to $2.50 per $100 of assessed valuation. The City's current tax rate is $.606
per $100 of assessed valuation ($.616 per $100 last year) and assessed valuation is
approximately 100% of estimated value.
Inventories
Inventories, which are recognized as expenditures as they are consumed, are stated at cost
(first -in, first -out method) for the General Fund. Inventories consist primarily of expendable
supplies.

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Fixed Assets
Fixed assets are recorded at cost (or fair value, if contributed) when acquired. General fixed
assets are recorded as expenditures in the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, and Capital
Projects Funds at the time of purchase or construction and are capitalized in the General Fixed
Assets Account Group at cost. Public domain ("infrastructure") general fixed assets consisting
of certain improvements other than buildings, including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets
and sidewalks, drainage systems and lighting systems are not capitalized in the general fixed
assets account group. No depreciation is recorded on general fixed assets.
Expenditures for utility plant and equipment are capitalized in the Proprietary Fund Types.
Depreciation is recorded on each class of depreciable property in the proprietary funds
beginning the year following the year of acquisition and utilizing the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives of assets:
Equipment
Waterworks and sanitary sewer system
Compensated Absences
5 - 15 years
33 1/3 years
Employees may accumulate a maximum of two times their annual vacation. The City's policy is
to pay the employee accumulated vacation upon termination. The City does not pay employees
for accumulated sick leave upon termination. Accumulated vacation in the proprietary funds has
been accrued as incurred and reported as accrued salaries and wages (a current liability). The
accumulated vacation of the governmental fund type, representing an estimate of the amounts
not expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources, has been recorded
in the General Long -Term Debt Account Group.
The estimated vacation liability expected to be satisfied with available financial resources is
included in accrued salaries and wages in the General Fund.
Fund Equity
Certain assets that are restricted to a specific future use or are not available for appropriation or
expenditure are offset by fund balance reserve accounts. Designated fund balances represent
tentative plans for future use of financial resources.
Comparative Data
Comparative total data for the prior year have been presented in the accompanying combined
financial statements in order to provide an understanding of the changes in the City's financial
position, operations and cash flows. Complete comparative data (i.e., presentation of prior year
totals by fund type in each of the statements) have not been presented since its inclusion would
make the statements unduly complex and difficult to read.

Memorandum Totals
The totals column on the combined statements are captioned Memorandum Only to indicate that
they are presented only to facilitate financial analysis. Data in these columns do not present
financial position, results of operations or cash flows in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles. Neither is such data comparable to a consolidation. Interfund
eliminations have not been made in the aggregation of this data.
Interfund Transactions
Quasi -external transactions are accounted for as revenues, expenditures or expenses.
Transactions that constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made
from it that are properly applicable to another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in
the reimbursing fund and as a reduction of expenditures/expenses in the fund reimbursed.
All other interfund transactions, except quasi -external transactions and reimbursements, are
recorded as transfers. Nonrecurring or nonroutine permanent transfers of equity are reported as
residual equity transfers. All other interfund transfers are reported as operating transfers.
Reclassifications
Certain 1995 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1996 presentation.

NOTE 3. LONG-TERM DEBT - continued
General Obligation Bonds authorized and unissued as of September 30, 1996, amounted to
$300,000. Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds authorized and unissued as of September 30, 1996,
amounted to $1,200,000. The water and sewer bonds were authorized in 1970 and currently the
City Council has no intent to issue these bonds.
At September 30, 1996, $1,500,000 of the defeased bonds in the 1991 refunding are still
outstanding.
Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds and Refunding Bonds and Drainage Utility Revenue Bonds are
payable solely from and equally secured by a first lien on and pledge of the net revenue of the
City's combined waterworks and sanitary sewer system and the net revenues of the City's drainage
utility system, respectively.
In accordance with the water and sewer revenue and refunding bond ordinances, the following
special reserves were established:
Reserve for revenue bond debt service - to be used for retirement of the current portion of principal
and interest payments due.
Reserve for revenue bond retirement - to be used for payment of principal and interest on bonds at
any time where there is not sufficient money available in the revenue bond debt service fund. No
payments are required into this fund after accumulating therein an amount equal to the average
annual principal and interest requirements of the bonds outstanding.
Reserve for emergency - to be used for payment of extraordinary repairs or replacements to the
system necessitated by an emergency for which no other funds are available. Should the reserve
for bond debt service and/or reserve for bond retirement prove deficient, the reserve for emergency
shall be used for the purpose of meeting principal and/or interest requirements of the bonds.
All funding requirements for the above reserves were met at September 30, 1996. The amounts
reserved are reported as restricted assets of the Enterprise Funds.
Investments of funds included in the bond reserve and emergency accounts are restricted to direct
obligations unconditionally guaranteed by the United States of America having maturities not in
excess of ten and five years, respectively.
The City issued Tax and Water and Sewer Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 1995, and
Golf Course Surplus Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 1995, for $5,200,000 and
$9,700,000, respectively, on November 13, 1995. Bond issuance costs were $98,036.
In addition, the City issued Tax and Softball Works Park Surplus Revenue Certificates of
Obligation, Series 1996, and Sales Tax Revenue Bonds, Series 1996, for $2,000,000 and
$1,485,000, respectively, on February 1, 1996 and August 27, 1996, respectively. Bond issuance
costs were $42,879.

NOTE 4. RESTRICTED ASSETS
Restricted assets consist of cash, investments and accrued interest primarily restricted for Water
and Sewer Enterprise Fund debt service and water and sewer system replacements.
The City sold certain of the waterworks and sanitary sewer system properties situated within the
City of Bedford to that City in 1968. The proceeds were restricted to the prepayment or redemption
of certain revenue bonds; investment income of the funds may be applied to current revenue bond
interest up to stipulated amounts. As of September 30, 1996, the balance in the property sales
proceeds account was $159,784 and is included in restricted assets in the accompanying balance
sheet.
NOTE 5. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The City entered into a 50 year contract dated September 25, 1973, with the Trinity River Authority
of Texas (the "TRA") whereby the TRA agrees to provide supplemental water and sewage
treatment for consideration. Payments by the City are based on metered usage at rates designed
to charge the City a prorata share of the TRA's annual operating and maintenance expenses,
principal and interest requirement on bonds issued by the TRA. Payments under this contract
approximated $4,475,000 in 1996 and are included as operating expenses of the water and sewer
fund. The payments increased approximately $180,000 in comparison to 1995.
The City is involved in a number of lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the
opinion of the City's legal counsel and management, any liability resulting from such litigation would
not be material in relation to the City's financial position.

CITY OF EULESS, TEXAS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 10. RISK MANAGEMENT
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 participates in
the Texas Municipal League Joint Self Insurance Fund ("TMLIF") to provide both general liability
and property insurance.
The City, along with other participating entities, contributes annual amounts determined by TMLIF
management. As claims arise they are submitted to and paid by TMLIF. The City is not liable for
payments beyond their annual contributions to TMLIF.
The City provides employee medical insurance coverage on a self -insured basis. Premiums are
paid into a separate Insurance Fund by other funds, by the City's employees, and by retirees and
are available to pay claims, claim reserves and administrative costs of the program. An excess
coverage insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of $60,000 and aggregate claims in
excess of $1,083,333. During fiscal 1996, the City and City's employees contributed approximately
$917,625 and $396,617, respectively, for medical coverage. The City's contributions are
accounted for as quasi -external transactions. Claims incurred but not reported have been
considered by the City in determining the claims liability at September 30, 1996 and are accounted
for in the Internal Service Fund.
The City is also self -insured for workers' compensation claims. Contributions are made to a
separate Risk Management Fund by other funds and are available to pay claims, claim reserves
and administrative costs of the program. An excess coverage insurance policy covers individual
claims in excess of $300,000. During 1996, the City contributed approximately $268,114 to the
fund for workers' compensation. The City had no significant reductions in insurance coverage from
the year ended September 30, 1995. Settlement amounts have not exceeded insurance coverage
for the year ended September 30, 1996 or any of the three preceding years ended September 30.
At September 30, 1996 and 1995, the City had no change in the aggregate amount of estimated
claims liabilities.
NOTE 11. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT SYSTEM
Plan Description
The City provides pension benefits for all of its full-time employees through a nontraditional, joint
contributory, defined contribution plan in a state-wide Texas Municipal Retirement System
(TMRS), one of over 670 administered by TMRS, an agent multiple -employer public employee
retirement system. It is the opinion of the TMRS management that the plans in TMRS are
substantially defined contribution plans but they have elected to provide additional voluntary
disclosure to foster a better understanding of some of the nontraditional characteristics of the
plan.
Benefits depend upon the sum of the employee's contributions to the plan, with interest, and
City -financed monetary credits, with interest. At the date the plan began, the City granted
monetary credits for service rendered before the plan began of a theoretical amount equal to
26
CITY OF EULESS, TEXAS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 11. EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT SYSTEM - continued
two times what would have been contributed by the employee with interest, prior to
establishment of the plan. Monetary credits for service since the plan began are a percent
(100%, 150%, or 200%) of the employee's accumulated contributions. In addition, the City can
grant as often as annually another type of monetary credit referred to as an updated service
credit which is a theoretical amount which, when added to the employee's accumulated
contributions and the monetary credits for service since the plan began, would be the total
monetary credits and employee contributions accumulated with interest if the current employee
contribution rate and the City matching percent had always been the average of his salary in the
last three years that are one year before the effective date. At retirement, the benefit is
calculated as if the sum of the employee's accumulated contributions with interest and the
employer -financed monetary credits with interest were used to purchase an annuity.
Members can retire at ages 60 and above with 10 years or more of service or with 25 years of
service regardless of age. The plan also provides death and disability benefits. A member is
vested after 10 years, but he must leave his accumulated contributions in the plan. If a member
withdraws his own money, he is not entitled to the employer -financed monetary credits, even if
he was vested. The plan provisions are adopted by the governing body of the City, within the
options available in the state statutes governing TMRS and within the actuarial constraints also
in the statutes.
Contributions
The contribution rate for the employees is 7%, and the City matching percent is currently 200%,
both as adopted by the governing body of the City. Under the state law governing TMRS, the
City contribution rate is annually determined by the actuary. This rate consists of the normal
cost contribution rate and the prior service contribution rate, both of which are calculated to be a
level percent of payroll from year to year. The normal cost contribution rate finances the
currently accruing monetary credits due to city matching percent, which are the obligation of the
city as of an employee's retirement date, not at the time the employee's contributions are made.
The normal cost contribution rate is the actuarially determined percent of payroll necessary to
satisfy the obligation of the City to each employee at the time his retirement becomes effective.
The prior service contribution rate amortizes the unfunded actuarial liability over the remainder of
the plan's 25 year amortization period. When the City periodically adopts updated service
credits and increases in annuities in effect, the increased unfunded actuarial liability is to be
amortized over a new 25 year period. Currently, the unfunded actuarial liability is being
amortized over the 25 year period which began in January 1996. The unit credit actuarial cost
method is used for determining the City contribution rate. Contributions are made monthly by
both the employees and the City. Since the City needs to know its contribution rate in advance
to budget for it, there is a one-year lag between the actuarial valuation that is the basis for the
rate and the calendar year when the rate goes into effect.
The City's total payroll in fiscal 1996 was $10,235,696 and the City's contributions were based
on a payroll of $9,884,244. Both the City and the covered employees made the required
contributions, amounting to $1,256,549 (11.92% of covered payroll for the months in calendar
year 1995, 9.03% normal cost plus 2.89% to amortize the unfunded actuarial liability, and

unfunded actuarial liability) for the City and $691,820 (7%) for the employees. The City adopted
changes in the plan since the previous actuarial valuation, which had the effect of increasing the
City's contribution rate for 1996 by 0.06% of payroll. There were no related -party transactions.
Funding Status and Progress
Even though the substance of the City's plan is not to provide a defined benefit in some form,
some additional voluntary disclosure is appropriate due to the nontraditional nature of the
defined contribution plan which has an initial unfunded pension benefit obligation due to
monetary credits granted by the City for services rendered before the plan began and which can
have additions to the unfunded pension benefit obligation through the periodic adoption of
increases in benefit credits and benefits. Statement No. 5 of the Governmental Accounting
Standards Boards (GASB 5) defines pension benefit obligation as a standardized disclosure
measure of the actuarial present value of pension benefits, adjusted for the effects of projected
salary increases, estimated to be payable in the future as a result of employee service to date.
The measure is intended to help users assess the funding status of public employee pension
plans, assess progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due, and
make comparisons among public employee pension plans.
The pension benefit obligation shown below is similar in nature to the standardized disclosure
measure required by GASB 5 for defined benefit plans except that there is no need to project
salary increases since the benefit credits earned for service to date are not dependent upon
future salaries. The calculations were made as part of the annual actuarial valuation as of
December 31, 1995. Because of the money -purchase nature of the plan, the interest rate
assumption, currently 8.0% per year, does not have as much impact on the results as it does for
a defined benefit plan. Market value of the assets is not determined for each City's plan, but
market value of assets of TMRS as a whole was 114.2% of book value as of December 31,
1995.

The book value of assets is amortized cost for bonds and original cost for short-term securities
and stocks. The actuarial assumptions used to compute the actuarially determined City
contribution rate are the same as those used to compute the pension benefit obligation. The
numbers above reflect the adoption of changes in the plan since the previous actuarial
valuation, which had the effect of increasing the pension benefit obligation by $105,232.

NOTE 12. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
The City offers its employees a Non-contributory Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan")
consistent with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. Plan asset ownership remains with the City
until the employee terminates with the City, retires or experiences an unforeseeable emergency.
Employees may contribute voluntarily to the Plan up to $7,500 annually.
Assets of the plan are invested primarily in various mutual funds. The current market value of the
funds' investments at September 30, 1996 was $2,875,009. The Plan has no unfunded liabilities.
All contributions to the Plan are remitted bi-weekly to the administrator of the Plan.
All amounts of compensation deferred under the Plan, all assets purchased with these amounts,
and all income attributable to these amounts, are (until paid or made available to the employee or
other beneficiary) solely the property and rights of the City subject only to the claims of the City's
general creditors. The City has no legal liability for losses of the plan, but does have the duty of
due care that would be required of an ordinary prudent investor. The City believes it is unlikely that
it will use the assets to satisfy the claims of general creditors in the future. The Plan is reported as
a fiduciary fund in the accompanying financial statements.
