County of Collier CLERK OF THE CIRCUIT COURT COLLIER COUNTY COURTHOUSE
February 24, 2015 To the Citizens and Members of the Board of County Commissioners, Collier County, Florida: It is with extreme pleasure that we present to you, the citizens of Collier County and members of the Board of County Commissioners, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. Responsibility for the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the Board of County Commissioners and County management. The Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller’s Finance and Accounting Department, as well as County management, is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability of assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management. Chapter 218.39 of the Florida Statutes requires an independent certified public accountant’s financial audit of counties in the State. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 the independent auditor, CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, issued an unmodified opinion on the financial statements. Their report is included in the Financial Section of this report. In addition to meeting the requirements set forth in State statutes, the audit was also designed to meet the requirements of the Government Auditing Standards, the U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments and Non-Profit Organizations and the Rules of the Auditor General, Chapter 10.550. Information relating to the Single Audits, including the schedule of expenditures of federal awards and state projects and the independent auditors’ report on compliance and internal control over compliance with requirements applicable to each major federal and state program, are included in the Federal and State Single Audit Section of this report. Governmental accounting and auditing principles require that management provide a narrative introduction, overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of

Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement MD&A and the two should be read in concert. Collier County’s MD&A can be found in the Financial Section immediately following the independent auditors’ report.
PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT Collier County is a Constitutional form of government and was established in 1923 under the Constitution and the laws of the State of Florida. The Board of County Commissioners is the legislative body for Collier County and is made up of five residents elected by voters. In addition to the County Commissioners, voters elect the following five constitutional officers: the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Supervisor of Elections and Tax Collector. The County provides its citizens with a wide range of services that include law enforcement, emergency management, fire and EMS services, animal services, library, museum and cultural services, parks and recreation operations, road maintenance and construction. Additionally, the County owns and operates a water and wastewater utility, a solid waste landfill and recycling program, a landfill gas to energy facility, three airports and a transit system. Budgets are prepared annually. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control throughout the year. The Board of County Commissioners conducts budget workshops during June of each year. The Board’s proposed budget is released by July 15, in accordance with Florida Statutes. The budgets of Constitutional Officers are presented to the appropriate authorizing bodies according to state statute. Public hearings are held in September to allow taxpayer input and to adopt the final budget.
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
Collier County, the state’s largest county at 2,026 square miles, is on the southwest coast of Florida, directly west of Miami. With a 2014 population of 339,642 (an 11 percent increase over the last ten years), Collier County has been considered to be one of the fastest growing counties in the state over the last ten years. The resident population includes Unincorporated County (pop. 301,540) and three municipalities: the Cities of Naples (pop. 20,537), Marco Island (pop. 17,163) and Everglades (pop. 402). The County’s economic base is concentrated in tourism, agriculture, fishing, ranching and forestry with a growing services economy and an emerging technology sector. Gulf of Mexico beaches and the Everglades National Park are important attractions to this area. Taxable property market valuation for fiscal year 2014 totaled $60.6 billion, or a very high $178,534 per capita. The County’s millage for General Fund operations in fiscal year 2014 remained at only 36% of the statutory 10 mill limit, or $3.56 per thousand dollars of taxable value. Unemployment levels in recent years approximate, or are slightly above, the statewide average. The 2014 annual County unemployment rate stood at 6.3%, while the statewide average is 6.1%. Income levels are high, with a per capita personal income of $64,872.
ii
LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING The County annually performs a three-year projection of major ad valorem supported funds (General Fund and the Unincorporated Area Municipal Services Taxing District Fund) prior to developing annual budget policy. On an annual basis the County prepares and adopts a five-year Capital Improvement Element (CIE). The CIE is a planning document that identifies public facilities that will be required during the next five or more years. The Capital Improvement Element is the foundation of Collier County’s annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The total CIP projects planned for fiscal years 2015-2019 is $529.3 million. Included in the County’s current CIP for fiscal years 2015-2019 are approximately $229.0 million in water and wastewater projects, $126.2 million in transportation projects, $27.9 million in stormwater projects and $51.6M in government facilities projects. In addition, parks and recreation projects of approximately $28.8 million are planned, as well as $29.4 million for tourist development funded projects, $26.0 million in solid waste projects and miscellaneous projects totaling $10.4M. None of the fiscal year 2015 – 2019 Capital Improvement Program is currently planned to be funded by bond or loan proceeds.
RELEVANT FINANCIAL POLICIES
Relevant financial policies include the appropriation of carryforward as revenue in the following year, maintaining a recommended General Fund unassigned fund balance of between 10% and 15% of actual expenditures and net operating transfers, the assessment of impact fees at such levels as allowed by law and supported by studies, and the earmarking of gas taxes for payment of debt service on the Series 2005, 2012 and 2014 Gas Tax Revenue and Refunding Bonds. Debt administration policies include the limitation of the debt repayment period to the useful life of the underlying assets and the establishment of a 5% benchmark for net present value savings generated by refinancing. The Collier County Debt Policy provides that a smaller net present value savings may be considered, but only on a case-by-case basis. In addition, the debt policy establishes a maximum ratio of total general governmental debt service to bondable revenues from current sources of 13%. Consistent with Collier County’s Debt Management Policy, outstanding debt is continually monitored in relation to existing conditions in the debt market. When sufficient cost savings can be realized debt will be refinanced. During fiscal year 2014, the County refunded a portion of the Series 2006 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds and substantially all of the Series 2005 Gas Tax Revenue Bonds. Both of these refinancings achieved a net present value savings of over 5%. These transactions are further described in Note 8 to the financial statements. The Finance and Accounting Department monitors the daily cash needs of the County and invests the County’s portfolio in accordance with the investment policy. The primary objective of the investment policy is the preservation of capital and the protection of investment principal. Authorized investments include certificates of deposit, the Local Government Funds Surplus Trust Fund, U.S. treasury securities, U.S. agency securities, commercial paper and bankers’ acceptances. The weighted average maturity of the total managed portfolio, to first call or maturity, was 1.41 years as of September 30, 2014. The average yield for fiscal year 2014 was .50%, which constitutes a reduction from historical rates, but is consistent with
iii
current market rates for similar portfolios. Changes in the fair value of investments are recorded as part of interest income in the financial statements.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Collier County, Florida (County), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the entity’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility
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 auditors’ 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.
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida
2
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, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County as of September 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof, and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund, the Bayshore Gateway Redevelopment Agency special revenue fund, and the Immokalee Redevelopment Agency special revenue fund for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of a Matter
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014, the County adopted the provisions of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASBS) No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities. As a result of the implementation of GASBS No. 65, the County reported a restatement for the change in accounting principle (see Note 18.) The auditors’ opinion was not modified with respect to the restatement.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management’s discussion and analysis and the other postemployment benefits schedule of funding progress for the retiree health plan on pages 4 through 17 and 84 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 County’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and budgetary comparison schedules as listed in the table of contents are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards and state financial assistance is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations and Chapter 10.550, Local Governmental Entity Audits, Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements.
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida
3
Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The 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 information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory section and the statistical section 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 it.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED)
As Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller of Collier County, Florida, I present the readers of the County’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of Collier County for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented in this narrative in conjunction with additional information offered in the letter of transmittal, found on pages i-v of this report. Financial Highlights Collier County’s assets exceeded its liabilities as of September 30, 2014 by
$2,521,143,775. Of this amount, $355,053,131 represents unrestricted net position and may be used to meet future County obligations.
The County’s total net position increased by $53,993,367 when compared to fiscal year
2013, with a $31,965,546 increase from governmental activities and a $22,027,821 increase resulting from business-type activities.
As of September 30, 2014 Collier County’s governmental fund financial statements
showed combined ending fund balances of $368,779,426, an increase of $14,918,652 over the previous fiscal year. Of the total combined ending governmental fund balance, ($4,304,659) is reported as unassigned. Negative unassigned balances in the Government Facilities Impact Fee Fund, Law Enforcement Impact Fee Fund and other capital project funds offset the General Fund’s unassigned fund balance.
The General Fund reported an unassigned fund balance of $57,780,353 at September
30, 2014, an increase in unassigned General Fund balance of $1,283,617 when compared to September 30, 2013.
Total face value of bonded debt, notes and outstanding loans owed by Collier County
decreased by $28,113,184 during fiscal year 2014, with a decrease in governmental activities debt of $14,167,454 and a decrease in the business-type activities debt of $13,945,730. In January of 2014, State Revolving Fund Loan proceeds of $9,922,122 were used to advance refund a portion of the Series 2006 Collier County Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds. In May of 2014, the Series 2005 Collier County Gas Tax Revenue Bonds were partially advanced refunded by the Series 2014 Collier County Gas Tax Refunding Revenue Bond. Additional information on debt activity can be found in Note 6 to the financial statements beginning on page 56.
Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction and explanation of Collier County’s basic financial statements. Collier County’s basic financial statements include government-wide and fund financial statements, as well as notes to the basic financial statements. This report also contains a statistical section, single audit and other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements.

Government-Wide Financial Statements Government-wide financial statements are designed to provide the reader an overview of the financial position of the County and are similar to private sector financial statements. These statements are comprised of a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities and are found on pages 18 to 21 of this report. The Statement of Net Position shows the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2014. The statement shows the County’s assets plus deferred outflows of resources less its liabilities plus deferred inflows of resources, with the difference being reported as net position. Changes in net position are useful indicators of financial condition. The Statement of Activities follows the Statement of Net Position and reports the changes in net position over the fiscal period. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying events that gave rise to the change occur, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items, such as accounts receivable, notes receivable or accrued unused vacation and sick leave, that will manifest themselves in cash inflows and outflows, respectively, in future fiscal periods. These statements distinguish Collier County functions that are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities), from business-type activities, which are intended to have their costs primarily recovered through user fees and charges. Governmental activities reported in the financial statements are general government, public safety, physical environment, transportation, economic environment, human services and culture and recreation. Business-type activities in Collier County include water and sewer, solid waste collections, airport operations, transit operations and emergency medical services. Fund Financial Statements A fund is a group of related accounts used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated to meet specific objectives. As dictated by generally accepted accounting principles, Collier County uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with financial legal requirements. The funds of the County can be divided into the following three categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. Governmental funds Governmental funds, presented on pages 22 to 30, account for substantially the same functions as governmental activities reported under the government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities. The difference is that the governmental fund financial statements focus on inflows and outflows of expendable resources, as well as balances of expendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year, on a near term basis. As such, these statements present a narrower view of financial condition, but are nonetheless useful in evaluating Collier County’s near term financing requirements and available resources. Comparison between the two sets of financial statements allows the reader to better assess the future impact of the government’s near term financial decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to the respective government-wide financial statements to facilitate comparison.
5
Governmental funds presented individually in Collier County’s statements include five major funds, the General Fund, Government Facilities Impact Fee Fund, Law Enforcement Impact Fee Fund and the Bayshore Gateway and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agencies. While there are many smaller governmental funds under Collier County management, they are aggregated in a total column named “other governmental funds”. Combining statements for these other governmental funds have been presented elsewhere in this report. Proprietary funds Collier County maintains two different types of proprietary funds, enterprise and internal service, which are reflected on pages 31 to 35 of this report. Enterprise funds report, with more detail, the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements for water and sewer, solid waste disposal, emergency medical services, transit and the airport authority. The Collier County Water and Sewer District Fund and the Solid Waste Disposal Fund are presented individually as major funds. Internal service funds are primarily maintained to allocate and accumulate costs internally for Collier County. The County uses internal service funds to account for health insurance, worker’s compensation insurance, property and casualty insurance, fleet operations and information technology. The internal service funds are presented in total in the proprietary fund financial statements, but may be viewed on a combining basis elsewhere in the report. Fiduciary funds Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside of Collier County government. These funds are not presented in the government-wide financial statements as they do not represent resources available to support Collier County functions. The fiduciary funds are presented on page 36 of this report. All of the County’s fiduciary funds are agency funds. The accounting used for agency funds is based on the concept that assets equal liabilities when the government is acting in a fiduciary capacity. Notes to the Financial Statements The notes provide additional information essential to a full understanding of the data provided in both the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes appear on pages 37 to 81 of this report. Other Information The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules mentioned above present more detailed views of nonmajor governmental and enterprise funds and begin on page 84. This section contains combining balance sheets and statements of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance for governmental funds, including budgetary comparisons, and combining statements of net position and statements of revenues, expenses and changes in fund net position for enterprise funds. Also included are combining financial statements for internal service and agency funds. Additional information about the County, which may be of interest to the reader, can be found under the Statistical and Single Audit sections of this report. The statistical section has been prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 44, Economic Condition Reporting: The Statistical Section. This section contains data regarding financial trends, revenue

capacity, debt capacity, demographic and economic conditions and operating indicators of the County. The Single Audit grants compliance section lists the expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial Assistance during the fiscal year and presents grant compliance information as well as auditor reports. Government-Wide Financial Analysis As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. Assets exceeded liabilities by $2,521,143,775 as of the fiscal year ending September 30, 2014 for Collier County. Positive balances were reported in all categories of net position in the governmental and business-type activities for fiscal year 2014, as well as fiscal year 2013. Collier County’s net position at September 30, 2014 increased by $6,213,167 for unrestricted net position and decreased $2,605,909 for restricted net position. Restricted net position consists of resources subject to external restriction on how they may be used while unrestricted net position may be used to meet the County’s ongoing obligations. Collier County’s investment in capital assets such as land, roads, buildings, parks and machinery and equipment, net of depreciation or any outstanding debt related to the asset, amounts to 75.9% of net position as of September 30, 2014, compared to 75.5% as of September 30, 2013. During fiscal year 2014, the County’s net investment in capital assets increased by $45,685,299. Capital assets are used to provide services to the citizens and consequently do not represent spendable resources and cannot be used to liquidate the debt incurred to purchase or construct capital assets. The following are Collier County’s net position and changes in net position for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2013 and 2014, shown in condensed form:

Governmental Activities The current year increase in the net position of governmental activities amounted to $31,965,546, an increase of 2.0% when compared to the previous year’s net position. The previous fiscal years’ increase in net position was .8%. The current years’ increase is mainly due to the following: Overall, revenues related to governmental activities increased by 3.6%, or $16,860,882
and expenses decreased by .6%, or $2,533,723.
Governmental activities revenues increased primarily due to increased operating grants and contributions received from the State of Florida related to transportation related projects within Collier County.
Half Cent Sales Tax and Tourist Development Tax collections increased a combined 13.6% over fiscal year 2013, or $6,571,666.
Total ad valorem taxes collected in fiscal year 2014 decreased $4,947,808, or 2.0%,
when compared to fiscal year 2013. The decrease in collections is primarily due to the expiration of the millage associated with the Conservation Collier program relating to the purchase of environmentally sensitive lands.
Decreases in expenses occurred in the functional area of economic environment and
interest and fiscal charges. Economic environment expenses decreased predominately due to a decline in amounts spent in the State Housing Initiative Partnership and Neighborhood Stabilization Programs. Interest and fiscal charges decreased due to the savings associated with the refinancing of the Series 2005 Gas Tax Revenue Bonds.
The public safety functional area had a 3.6% increase in expenses for fiscal year 2014 primarily due to an increase in Sheriff related operating expenses.
Business-type Activities Increases in net position related to business-type activities amounted to $22,027,821 in the aggregate, representing a 2.5% increase over the previous year’s net position.
• The majority of the increase, or $13,145,806, can be attributed to the Collier County Airport Authority. The Airport Authority’s net position increased due to runway rehabilitation and improvement projects completed at the Marco and Immokalee locations. These rehabilitation programs were substantially grant funded.
The Collier County Water and Sewer District’s operating income increased by
$1,006,848 over fiscal year 2013 primarily due to a $3,001,297, or 2.9%, increase in charges for services. User charges increased due to an increase in billed water consumption tied to a 2.4% increase in peak season water population.
11
Solid waste operating income decreased by $507,338 from fiscal year 2013. User
charges increased by $782,951, primarily a result of a 4.6% increase in residential and commercial municipal waste tonnage and construction and demolition waste being accepted into the Naples landfill during fiscal year 2014. Operating costs increased primarily due to an increase in landfill operating costs. These factors contributed to an increase in solid waste net position year on year of $1,105,841.
Fund Financial Statement Analysis As mentioned above, Collier County utilizes fund accounting to ensure compliance with finance related legal requirements. Governmental Funds Governmental funds provide information on near term inflows, outflows and balances of spendable resources. Unassigned fund balance is a useful measure of net resources available to be spent at the end of the fiscal year. Governmental funds consist of the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds and Capital Project Funds. As of September 30, 2014, Collier County governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $368,779,426, an increase of $14,918,652 when compared to prior year combined fund balances. The governmental funds had non-spendable fund balances of $73,387,310 consisting of inventory, prepaid items, notes receivable and General Fund and Other Governmental Fund advances to other funds. The restricted fund balance was $243,106,079 and consists of monies whose expenditure is externally constrained by grantors, creditors, binding law or enabling legislation. Of the remaining $52,286,037 in fund balance, $27,349,111 is classified as committed, $29,241,585 is recorded as assigned and ($4,304,659) is recorded as unassigned. The following were noteworthy activities and changes relating to the major governmental funds for fiscal year 2014:
• The General Fund is the primary operating fund of Collier County. At September 30, 2014, total fund balance in the General Fund was $78,598,810, of which $57,780,353 was unassigned. As a percentage of total general fund expenditures and net transfers, the unassigned portion is 21.4%. The total fund balance increased by $5,449,302 or 7.4%, compared to the September 30, 2013 total fund balance. The increase in total fund balance was primarily the result of an increase in General Fund ad valorem tax revenue of $7,861,734 when compared to fiscal year 2013.
• The Bayshore Gateway Community Redevelopment Agency was created to benefit blighted areas in the Bayshore Gateway Triangle. During fiscal year 2014 the Bayshore Gateway Community Redevelopment Agency collected $942,700 in tax increment revenues and sold properties to realize sales proceeds of $289,647. The sales proceeds were used to pay down related debt. Additional miscellaneous revenues of $323,321, consisting mostly of rents, were received. Operating expenditures of $1,599,365, including a loss on the sale of properties held for resale of $1,208,886, were associated with the Bayshore Gateway Triangle.
12
• The Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency was created to benefit blighted
areas in Immokalee. During fiscal year 2014, the Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agency collected $319,800 in tax increment revenues and was reimbursed $503,384 for improvements related to Immokalee First Street Plaza. In addition, grant revenues of $176,350 were received for water management and transportation improvements. Capital expenditures of $746,264 were made for stormwater and transportation improvements with a further $497,374 being spent on associated operating costs.
• The Government Facilities Impact Fee Fund accounts for the receipt and expenditure of government facilities impact fees collected from qualifying new construction. During fiscal year 2014, governmental facilities impact fees totaling $1,493,527 were collected. The impact fees must be used for the acquisition or construction of growth related capital government facilities, or related debt service. During fiscal year 2014, the Government Facilities Impact Fee Fund made debt service related transfers of $4,354,500, paid $14,125 in administrative charges, $7,690 in capital outlay and $11,215 of interest on an interfund advance from the Solid Waste Disposal Fund.
• The Law Enforcement Impact Fee Fund accounts for the receipt and expenditure of law enforcement impact fees collected from qualifying new construction. During fiscal year 2014, law enforcement impact fees totaling $801,295 were collected. The impact fees must be used for the acquisition or construction of growth related capital law enforcement expenditures, or related debt service. During fiscal year 2014, the Law Enforcement Impact Fee Fund made debt service related transfers of $2,649,000, paid $9,738 in administrative charges and $9,015 in capital outlay.
Proprietary funds Proprietary fund statements provide the same information as the business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements, but in greater detail, and on a fund basis for enterprise funds. At September 30, 2014, total net position amounted to $920,233,550 for enterprise funds, as compared to $898,205,729, as restated, as of September 30, 2013, an increase of $22,027,821. Net position changes as a result of operations, non-operating revenues and expenses, capital contributions and grants and donations. The Collier County Airport Authority’s activities represent the majority of the increase in the business-type net position. For the year ended September 30, 2014, the Airport Authority reported capital grants and contributions of $13,276,356, which consists of capital grants obtained for purposes of lengthening runways at the Marco Island and Immokalee Airports.

Net Operating Income/(Loss)
The Collier County Water and Sewer Fund net operating income increased by $1,006,848, when compared to fiscal year 2013. The increase in net operating income was the result of a 2.9% increase in charges for services due to increased billed water consumption during fiscal year 2014. County Water and Sewer payments in lieu of taxes paid to the General Fund of $5,121,300 were reclassified from operating expense to operating transfers for financial statement purposes. These payments are reclassified pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles as the amount charged is not an approximation of services rendered. Total operating expenses, including depreciation, increased by $2,265,034, or 2.2%, when compared to fiscal year 2013. Capital Assets Collier County’s financial statements present capital assets in two distinct groups, those that are depreciated and those not subject to depreciation. Buildings and equipment are examples of assets that are depreciated and land and construction in progress are examples of assets not depreciated. Collier County’s investment in capital assets for the governmental and business-type activities amounted to $2,501,412,332, net of accumulated depreciation. This investment in capital assets, both purchased and donated, includes land, buildings and improvements, water and wastewater plants, machinery and equipment, parks, roads, beach renourishment and drainage structures. Investment in capital assets for the current fiscal year, net of depreciation, increased by $26,402,539 when compared to the previous year. There was a decrease in the governmental activities net capital assets of $5,558,038, or .4%, while the business-type activities capital assets increased by $31,960,577, or 3.6%. In the governmental activities amounts depreciated exceeded amounts capitalized. The major factors behind these changes are as follows: The business-type activities capitalized $58,507,822 of work in process during fiscal year
2014 including $4,249,757 for forcemain transmission system improvements, $4,410,525 for joint utility projects with the Florida Department of Transportation, $3,984,795 for distribution system improvements, $4,873,553 for the North County Water Reclamation Facility and $4,928,973 for lift station improvements.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights During the current fiscal year, the Board of County Commissioners approved an $881,407 increase in General Fund expenditure appropriations between the original and the final amended budget. Significant variances between the original budget and the final amended budget are listed below: $410,287 decrease in the Tax Collector’s agency to reduce budget to actual
expenditures
$370,652 increase in County Attorney operating due to re-budgeting of lapsed appropriations from the previous fiscal year
$1,217,300 decrease in Other General Administration operating to provide additional funding to the Emergency Medical Services fund and to set aside funding for potential Veteran’s home
$700,000 increase in Supervisor of Elections budget due to a Special Election
$1,355,000 increase in charges for services and Sheriff’s agency personal services related to special detail duties
Significant variances between actual results and final budget amounts in the General Fund occurred during fiscal year 2014. Tax revenues were under budget by $7,473,923 primarily due to the early payment discount allowed for property taxes. The discount ranges from a maximum 4% to 1%, depending on the date of payment. General Fund general government expenditures were under budget primarily due to $850,262 in unspent budget related to goods and services contracted for in 2013 that had not been received as of September 30, 2014 as well as an effort to reduce spending in all departments. Economic Factors and Year 2015 Budgets and Rates The following factors were taken into account in preparing the fiscal year 2015 budget: A 6.4% increase in countywide taxable property values. Millage neutral General Fund and Unincorporated Area General Fund tax rates.
Expected year on year increases in sales tax and state shared revenues of 2.3% and
1.9%, respectively.
No new fees or service charges to Collier County residents. Continuation of Board Agency exception basis hiring freeze within ad valorem funded
operations and enterprise operations. Maintain health care program contributions at 80% employer and 20% employee across
all agencies (excluding Sheriff and Tax Collector).

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDARECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND
CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDSTO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2014
Differences in amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net position on pages 20-21:
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of net positionthe cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.
Capital outlayDepreciation expense
Donations of capital assets are not financial resources to governmental funds, but receiving donated assets increases net position in the statement of net position.
Amortization of bond insurance premium
In the statement of net position, the loss on the sale of capital assets is reported. However, in the governmental funds the proceeds from the sale of capital assets increase financial resources. The change in net position differs from the change in fund balance by the net book value of assets disposed.
Certain revenues not considered available are not recognized in the governmental funds but are included in the statement of activities.
Debt proceeds provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the statement of net position.
Proceeds from bonds
Repayment of principal on long-term debt is an expenditure in governmental funds, but a reduction of long-term liabilities in the statement of net position.
Bond and loan principal paymentsPayments to refunding escrow agentPayments on capital lease obligations
Certain amounts reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds.
Decrease in compensated absencesAccrued interest on bonds and loans
Amortization of deferred loss Amortization of premium
The net revenues of internal service funds are reported with governmental activities.
Change in net position - governmental activities

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES THE REPORTING ENTITY The primary government consists of Collier County, a political subdivision of the State of Florida that was established in 1923 by the Florida State Legislature. The County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners which consists of five members elected within single member districts. In addition, there are five separately elected Constitutional Officers: the Tax Collector, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller and Supervisor of Elections. The Constitutional Officers are elected county wide. Under the direction of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, the Finance and Accounting Department maintains the accounting system for the operations of the Board of County Commissioners, Supervisor of Elections and the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller. The Tax Collector, Property Appraiser and Sheriff each maintain their own accounting systems. For financial reporting purposes, the operations of the Board of County Commissioners and the Constitutional Officers are combined and presented as the primary government. Component units are legally separate agencies that the primary government is financially accountable for or organizations which should be included in the reporting entity because of the nature and significance of their relationship with the primary government. Financial accountability is determined by the primary government's ability to appoint the voting majority of the entity's board, impose its will on the organization, and the existence of a financial benefit/burden relationship or fiscal dependency. The County's blended component units consist of organizations whose respective governing Boards are composed entirely of the Board of County Commissioners serving ex-officio. These entities are legally separate, however financial support has been pledged and financial or operational policies may be significantly influenced by the County. In accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 61, The Financial Reporting Entity: Omnibus, these organizations are reported as if they were part of the County's operations.
Collier County Water and Sewer District The District was established by Chapter 88-499, as amended by Chapter 03-353, Laws of Florida, to provide water, sewer and effluent services to portions of the unincorporated area of Collier County. Collier County Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) The CRA was established by Resolution 2000-82 to benefit blighted areas in both the Immokalee Redevelopment and Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment areas. These two redevelopment areas are geographically separate and distinct. Collier County Airport Authority The Board of County Commissioners was established as the governing body of the Airport Authority by Ordinance 2010-10. The Airport Authority is responsible for construction, improvement, equipment, development, regulation, operation and maintenance of the Marco Island, Immokalee and Everglades Airports and all related airport facilities.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED THE REPORTING ENTITY – CONTINUED
Collier County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) The Authority was created in 1981 by Collier County Resolution 81-222 pursuant to Section 334.215, Florida Statutes, as amended by Section 339.175, Florida Statutes. The purpose of the MPO is to provide for short-term and long-term planning for all modes of travel in order to benefit the citizens of Collier County. The MPO is reported as part of the Grants and Shared Revenues fund.
The County's discretely presented component units consist of organizations whose board members are appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. The County is able to impose its will on these entities because of its ability to remove appointed members from the component units' Boards. The Authorities maintain their own financial records, but do not issue separate financial statements. GASB 14, as amended by GASB 39, requires that the financial data of the following organizations be reported in separate columns to emphasize that they are legally separate from the County.
Collier County Housing Finance Authority The Authority was formed in 1980 by Collier County Ordinance 80-66 for the purpose of stimulating the construction of residential housing for low and moderate income families through the use of public financing. Their financial position and results of operations are reported in the accompanying financial statements and the outstanding conduit debt issued by the Authority is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit Debt Obligations”. Collier County Health Facilities Authority The Authority was established in 1979 by Collier County Ordinance 79-95 for the purpose of assisting health facilities in the acquisition, construction and financing of projects within the County. Their financial position and results of operations are reported in the accompanying financial statements and the outstanding conduit debt issued by the Authority is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit Debt Obligations”. Collier County Industrial Development Authority The Authority was created in 1978 by Collier County Resolution 78-94 to facilitate the financing of projects that promote economic growth and increase opportunities for employment in the County.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The basic financial statements are made up of the government-wide financial statements and fund financial statements. Both of these sets of financial statements distinguish between the governmental and business-type activities of Collier County. The government-wide financial statements consist of a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities. These statements report on the financial condition of Collier County, at the reporting entity level. Internal balances represent net amounts due between the governmental and business-type activities. As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. The internal service activity has also been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Aggregate internal service fund activity is reported in full as a single column in the proprietary fund financial statements. Fiduciary funds are not included in these presentations as their assets do not represent amounts that are available for Collier County government operations. The Statement of Net Position reports all financial and capital resources of Collier County’s governmental and business-type activities. Net position equals assets plus deferred outflows of resources minus liabilities plus deferred inflows of resources, and is shown in three categories: net investment in capital assets; restricted net position and unrestricted net position. The Statement of Activities reports results of operations on a functional activity (program) basis and demonstrates to what degree the particular program has been self-supporting.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – CONTINUED Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a service, program or department and, thus are clearly identifiable to a particular function. The effect of indirect expense allocations has been eliminated in the government-wide financial statements. Depreciation expense for capital assets that can specifically be identified with a function is recorded as a direct expense of that function. Depreciation for capital assets that serve all functions is recorded as a direct expense of the general government function on the government-wide Statement of Activities. All interest on general long term debt is considered indirect and is reported separately in the government-wide Statement of Activities. Program revenues are reported in the following three categories: charges for services, operating grants and contributions and capital grants and contributions. Charges for services are amounts charged to customers for a particular service, and are netted against the cost of the relevant program. Internal charges for indirect services are allocated across functions as direct expenses. Grants and contributions refer to revenues restricted for capital or operational use in a particular program. The general revenue category encompasses all other revenue types and represents revenue collected to support all functions of Collier County government. The fund financial statements follow the government-wide statements and report more detailed information about operations of major funds on an individual basis and nonmajor funds on an aggregate basis for the governmental and proprietary funds. Following the governmental fund balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances are reconciliations explaining the differences between the governmental fund presentation and the government-wide presentation.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION The following are reported as major governmental funds:
General Fund – the General Fund is the general operating fund of the County. All general tax revenues and other receipts that are not accounted for in other funds are accounted for in the General Fund. The general operating funds of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Supervisor of Elections and Tax Collector are presented together with the Board of County Commissioners' general operating fund in the County’s consolidated General Fund.
Bayshore Gateway and Immokalee Redevelopment Agency Special Revenue Funds – the Redevelopment funds are used to account for the receipt and expenditure of tax increment revenues generated by the Bayshore Gateway and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agencies. Government Facilities Impact Fee Capital Project Fund – the Government Facilities Impact Fee fund is used to account for the receipt and expenditure of government facilities impact fees collected from qualifying new construction. The impact fees must be used for the acquisition and construction of government facilities.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED BASIS OF PRESENTATION – CONTINUED
Law Enforcement Impact Fee Capital Project Fund – the Law Enforcement Impact Fee fund is used to account for the receipt and expenditure of law enforcement impact fees collected from all qualifying new construction. The impact fees must be used for the acquisition and construction of law enforcement related facilities.
The following are reported as major enterprise funds:
County Water and Sewer Fund – the County Water and Sewer fund is used to account for the provision of water, wastewater and effluent services to certain portions of the County’s unincorporated area. Solid Waste Disposal Fund – the Solid Waste Disposal fund is used to account for the provision of solid waste disposal services to users throughout the County.
Collier County also maintains the following nonmajor fund types:
Special Revenue Fund – Special revenue funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specific purposes other than debt service or capital projects. Permanent Fund – Permanent funds are used to account for resources that were legally restricted to the extent that only earnings and not principal may be spent. Collier County operates a permanent fund to defray costs associated with the maintenance and management of conservation land. Debt Service Funds – Debt service funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources that are restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest related to long-term obligations. Capital Project Funds – Capital project funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources that are restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays including the acquisition or construction of capital facilities and other capital assets. Enterprise Funds – Enterprise funds are used to account for activities for which a fee is charged to external users for goods or services. Internal Service Funds – Internal service funds are used to account for the provision of goods and services by one department to other departments within the County or to other governmental units on a cost reimbursement basis. Collier County currently reports the following Internal Service Funds: Self Insurance, Sheriff’s Self Insurance, Fleet Management and Information Technology.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED BASIS OF PRESENTATION – CONTINUED
Agency Funds – Agency funds are custodial in nature and do not report the results of operations (assets equal liabilities). Agency funds are clearing accounts for assets held by the government as an agent for individuals, private organizations or other governments. The Board of County Commissioners, Sheriff, Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller and Tax Collector all maintain agency funds.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND MEASUREMENT FOCUS Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the measurement focus applied. The government-wide financial statements, as well as the fund financial statements for the proprietary funds, are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized in the period in which they are earned and expenses are recognized in the period incurred. Grant revenues are recognized when eligibility requirements are met. The intent in proprietary operations is that the costs of providing goods or services to the general public be financed primarily through user charges, or where periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is deemed appropriate. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses. Primary revenues including non-grant intergovernmental revenues, charges for services and interest are treated as susceptible to accrual under the modified accrual basis. In applying the susceptibility-to-accrual concept to grant revenues, the legal and contractual requirements of the numerous individual programs are used as guidance. In addition, grant revenues are considered available if they are expected to be collected within one year of the end of the current fiscal period. Property taxes are discussed later in this footnote. Other revenue sources are not considered measurable and available and are not treated as susceptible to accrual. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred. Exceptions to this general rule include accrued compensated absences and principal and interest on long-term debt.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY DATA The following are the statutory procedures followed by the Board of County Commissioners in establishing the budgets for the County:
1) Within fifteen days after certification of the ad valorem tax roll by the Property Appraiser, the County budget officer prepares and presents to the Board a tentative budget for the ensuing fiscal year. The budget includes all estimated receipts and all estimated expenditures, reserves and balances to be carried forward at the end of the year as specified in Section 129.03, Florida Statutes. 2) Within eighty days of the certification of value, but not earlier than sixty-five days after certification, the Board holds a public hearing on the tentative budget and proposed millage rate. At this hearing the Board amends and adopts the tentative budget, recomputes the proposed millage rate, and announces publicly the percentage, if any, by which the recomputed proposed millage rate exceeds the rolled-back rate. If the millage rate tentatively adopted exceeds that proposed, each taxpayer within the jurisdiction is notified of the increase by first class mail, at the expense of the Board. 3) Within fifteen days of the meeting adopting the tentative budget, the Board advertises the County's intent to adopt a final budget and millage rate.
4) A public hearing is held by the Board to finalize the budget and adopt a millage rate. This hearing is held not less than two days and not more than five days after the day that the advertisement is first published. Prior to September 30, the millage levy is adopted by a separate vote. The millage rate adopted is not allowed to exceed the tentatively adopted millage rate, except as allowed for by emergency provision with strict public notice requirements. This is followed by the approval and ratification of the final budget. 5) The resolution approved at the final hearing is forwarded to the Property Appraiser, Tax Collector and Florida Department of Revenue, not later than thirty days following the adoption of the Resolution, the Board certifies to the State of Florida, Department of Revenue, Division of Ad Valorem Tax, that it has complied with the provisions of Chapter 200, Florida Statutes. 6) The County Manager approves interdepartmental budget changes within the same fund and division of $50,000 or less that do not impact reserves or recognize revenue. All other budgetary changes must be approved by the Board of County Commissioners as matter of policy. The initial adopted budget was amended in accordance with Florida Statutes. 7) Florida State Section 129.07, as amended in 1978, provides that expenditures in excess of total fund budgets are unlawful. However, because the Board approves all budgetary changes between departments, except those approved by the County Manager, the departmental budget becomes the level of control.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY DATA – CONTINUED Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the fiscal year for all funds. Budgets have been legally adopted by the Board for all Board departments except for the agency funds and the Impact Fees Escrow special revenue fund. The Property Appraiser and the Tax Collector adopt budgets for their general funds independently of the Board. The Clerk of Courts operates as a fee officer, and as such, prepares its budget in accordance with Section 218.35, Florida Statutes. The Sheriff and Supervisor of Elections prepare budgets for their general funds, which are submitted to and approved by the Board. The Clerk of Court’s budget for court related functions is prepared according to Section 28.36 Florida Statutes and submitted to the Clerks of Court Operations Corporation for approval by the Legislative Budget Commission. Budgets are adopted for all governmental departments except as described in the previous paragraph. These budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) except for certain non-budgeted revenues and expenditures and mark to market activity on investments. All unencumbered appropriations lapse at the end of the current year. For further information regarding encumbrances, refer to Note 16 on page 79. Capital project costs are budgeted in the year they are anticipated to be obligated. In subsequent years, the unused budget is reappropriated until the project is completed. Proprietary funds are budgeted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles, except that capital related and debt transactions are based upon cash receipts and disbursements. Estimated beginning fund balances are considered in the budgetary process. For purposes of the budgetary presentation, certain transactions that have been accounted for in the governmental funds statements of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances have not been reflected in the budgetary financial statements. Specifically, bad debt expense and the net change in fair value of investments are not presented in the budget to actual statements. ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE Unbilled charges for services are accrued in the County Water and Sewer and Emergency Medical Services by prorating subsequent bills. INVENTORIES AND PREPAID COSTS Inventory is valued at cost using the first-in, first-out method. Inventory in the governmental funds consists of supplies held for consumption. The cost is recorded as an expenditure at the time inventory items are consumed rather than when purchased. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items. Inventories and prepaid costs reported within governmental funds are classified as non-spendable, which indicates that they do not constitute available resources. Inventories and prepaid costs in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements are reported as an expense when consumed.
45
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED INVENTORIES AND PREPAID COSTS – CONTINUED Inventory held for resale consists of real estate holdings, acquired through various programs, which the County intends to sell. The value of these properties includes the original purchase price plus the cost of any rehabilitation. Inventory held for resale of $12,228,631 is classified as restricted, which indicates that they do not constitute available resources. CAPITAL ASSETS Land, buildings, improvements and equipment are stated at cost. Capital contributions are recorded at their fair value on the date donated. Facilities constructed using impact fees, collected from developers and customers, are stated at cost. The County capitalizes expenditures with a cost of $1,000 or more and with a useful life in excess of one year. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses. The cost of capital assets retired or sold, together with the related accumulated depreciation, is removed from the accounts and any gain or loss on disposition is credited or charged to earnings in the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line method. The estimated useful life of the various classes of depreciable capital assets is as follows:
Capital Asset Class Estimated Useful Life Buildings 20-45 years Infrastructure 3-30 years Improvements other than buildings 4-45 years Machinery and equipment 3-20 years
Costs incurred in the renourishment of beaches are included in the infrastructure class of capital assets and are capitalized and depreciated over three years. Infrastructure acquired prior to fiscal years ended June 30, 1980 is not reported. CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements capital lease obligations and the related cost of assets acquired are reflected in the Statement of Net Position. For capital lease obligations originating in governmental funds, an expenditure for the asset and the offsetting other financing source is reflected in the fund financial statements in the year of inception.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED DEFERRED OUTFLOWS/INFLOWS OF RESOURCES The statement of net position includes a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. Deferred outflows of resources represent a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and as such will not be recognized as an expense or expenditure in the current year. For Collier County only one item qualifies for reporting as a deferred outflow and that is the deferred charge on refunding reported in the proprietary and government wide statements of net position. A deferred charge results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt. The statement of net position also includes a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. Deferred inflows of resources represent an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period and as a result, will not be recognized as revenue in the current year. Collier County has recorded amounts associated with long term receivables primarily related to deferred impact fee agreements. BOND PREMIUMS, LOSS ON DEFEASANCE AND ISSUANCE COSTS Bond premiums and bond insurance costs for the governmental activities and the business-type activities are deferred and amortized over the term of the bonds using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method. Bond premiums are presented as an increase to the face amount of bonds payable, while bond insurance costs are recorded as deferred charges and shown on the face of the Statement of Net Position as a component of noncurrent assets. Pursuant to GASB No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the gain or loss on defeasance of debt is reported as a deferred inflow or outflow of resources. The gain or loss is calculated as the difference between the reacquisition price of the refunded debt and the net carrying amount at the time of the refunding. The gain or loss is amortized on a straight line basis over the shorter of the life of the new debt or the remaining life of the old debt as a component of interest expense. In the governmental fund financials, bond premiums and issuance costs, including bond insurance costs, are recognized in the current period. The face amount of debt is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are also reported as other financing sources. Issuance costs, including bond insurance costs, whether or not they have been paid from debt proceeds are reported as debt service expenditures. INTEREST COST In the proprietary funds, interest costs are expensed or capitalized as required by GASB 62, Codification of Accounting and Financial Reporting Guidance Contained in Pre-November 30, 1989 FASB and AICPA Pronouncements.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED PROPERTY TAXES Property taxes become due and payable on November 1st of each year and become delinquent on April 1st of the following year. Property taxes receivable and a corresponding allowance for uncollectible property taxes are not included in the financial statements, as delinquent taxes as of September 30, 2014 are not significant. Discounts on property taxes are allowed for payments made prior to the April 1st delinquent date as follows: November - 4%, December - 3%, January - 2%, and February - 1%. Tax certificates for the full amount of any unpaid taxes must be sold not later than June 1st of each year. No accrual for the property tax levy becoming due in November 2014 is included in the accompanying financial statements, since such taxes are collected to finance expenditures of the subsequent period. Key dates in the property tax cycle for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 are as follows:
Property Tax Cycle Date Assessment roll compiled January 1, 2013
Assessment roll certified July 1, 2013

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS For the year ended September 30, 2014, the financial statements include the impact of adoption of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASBS) No. 65. GASBS 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, provides further guidance for the items listed in GASBS No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position. GASBS No. 65 requires that statements avoid use of the term “deferred” except as it relates to items that are deferred inflows or outflows. The statement also addresses the calculation of a deferred outflow or inflow for refunding of debt. For nonexchange transactions like grants and property taxes, amounts received before the period of eligibility are treated as deferred inflows. Statement No. 65 also requires that debt issuance costs be expensed in the period that the debt was issued, versus amortized over the life of the debt issue. The effects of this change are required to be disclosed in the period that it is implemented. For operating leases, any initial direct costs are recognized in the period incurred versus being amortized over the life of the lease. When an asset is recorded in the governmental fund statements but the revenue is not available until a future period, a deferred inflow is reported until the revenue becomes available.
48
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimated. UNEARNED REVENUE In instances where assets have been received by the County for services to be rendered in future periods, asset balances are offset by an unearned revenue liability account in the financial statements. Unearned revenues of the County as of September 30, 2014 are gift certificates issued and prepayments on accounts. ACCRUED COMPENSATED ABSENCES The County follows the provisions of GASB Statement No. 16, Accounting for Compensated Absences. This statement provides for the measurement of accrued vacation leave and other compensated absences using the pay or salary rates in effect at the balance sheet date. It also requires additional amounts to be accrued for certain salary related payments associated with the payment of compensated absences. It is the Board of County Commissioners’ policy to allow employees of record on August 2, 1996 a sick leave payment upon termination for any service period earned prior to August 2, 1996 and a payout of unused vacation up to 440 hours for all employees. The Sheriff’s policy allows for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, not to exceed 1,000 hours, and up to 500 hours of unused vacation time. Both the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller’s and Tax Collector’s policies allow for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, and up to 240 hours of unused vacation hours. The Property Appraiser’s policy allows for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, not to exceed 1,040 hours, and up to 200 hours of unused vacation hours. The Supervisor of Election’s policy allows for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, and up to 440 hours of unused vacation. Payments for compensated absences are made by the respective fund. Accrued compensated absences are recorded as liabilities in the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary fund financials. A liability is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations or retirements, and are considered due and payable as of year end. NOTE 2 – CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS The County maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds. Each fund’s portion of this pool is displayed on the balance sheet under the heading of Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments. Investment income is allocated monthly to participating funds based on the percentage of each fund's average daily balance in the total pool.

CREDIT RISK Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The investment practices are governed by Florida Statutes, Chapter 218 and the Investment Policy. The Investment Policy limits credit risk by restricting authorized investments to the Florida Local Government Surplus Trust Fund (Florida PRIME), direct obligations of, or obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government, U.S. government sponsored Corporation/Instrumentalities (except for Student Loan Marketing Association), certificates of deposit collateralized by U.S. Government Securities or Agencies, fixed income mutual funds collateralized by U.S. Government Securities or Agencies, domestic bankers’ acceptances rated “AA” or higher, prime commercial paper rated “A-1” and “P-1”, tax-exempt obligations rated “AA” or higher and issued by state or local governments, NOW accounts fully collateralized in accordance with Chapter 280, Florida Statutes and qualifying repurchase agreements.
50
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 2 – CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS – CONTINUED CREDIT RISK – CONTINUED The policy requires that each firm involved in a repurchase agreement must execute the County’s master repurchase agreement, a third party custodian must hold collateral for all repurchase agreements with a term of more than one day and the market value of the collateral shall maintain a minimum price of 101 percent on U.S. Government securities and 104 percent on Agencies and Instrumentalities with a term over five (5) years, and must be marked to market at least weekly. The Florida PRIME is an investment pool administered by the State Board of Administration (SBA), under the regulatory oversight of the State of Florida. The SBA operates two pools, Florida PRIME and Fund B Surplus Trust Fund (Fund B), with the Florida PRIME carrying a AAAm rating from Standard & Poor’s. At September 30, 2014, the Sheriff had $739,414 invested in the State Board of Administration’s Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund Investment Pool. All of these funds are held in the Florida PRIME pool. Florida PRIME is fully liquid and carries a weighted average days to maturity of 39 days. All cash deposits are held in qualified public depositories pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 280, "Florida Security for Public Deposits Act". Under the Act, all qualified public depositories are required to pledge eligible collateral having a market value equal to or greater than the average daily or monthly balance of all public deposits, multiplied by the depository's collateral pledging level. The pledging level may range from 25% to 200% depending upon the depository's financial condition. Any losses to public deposits are covered by applicable deposit insurance, sale of securities pledged as collateral, and if necessary, assessments against other qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository in default. CUSTODIAL CREDIT RISK The policy requires execution of a third-party custodial safekeeping agreement for purchased securities and collateral, and requires that securities be held in the County’s name. At September 30, 2014, the County had demand deposits of $118,627,363. These demand deposits do not include discretely presented component unit deposits of $203,304. All balances in excess of the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation insurance for demand deposits are fully collateralized by the multiple financial institutions’ collateral pool in accordance with Florida Statutes Section 280. INTEREST RATE RISK Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. One of the primary objectives of the investment policy is to match investment cash flow and maturity with known cash needs and anticipated cash flow requirements. The County limits exposure to interest rate risk by structuring the portfolio to meet daily cash flow demands. Investments shall have an average maturity of not more than five years, except for mortgage securities. Mortgage securities will not be used to match liabilities that are reasonably definable as to amount and disbursement date and are used to invest funds associated with reserves or liabilities that are not associated with a specifically identified cash flow schedule.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 3 - TRADE RECEIVABLES – CONTINUED The County has multi and single-family home rehabilitation and homeownership loan programs funded under the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), HOME Investment Partnership Loan Program (HOME), Disaster Recovery Initiative (DRI), Neighborhood Stabilization Program (NSP) and the State Housing Initiative Partnership Program (SHIP). If the homeowners remain in their homes for the full term of the deferred loan, the loan is forgiven. If the property is transferred or sold before the end of the loan period, the proceeds from the repayment including interest, if any, are then repaid and returned to the appropriate grant program. A lien is placed against the property to ensure the repayment of the loan and interest, if any. As collection is uncertain on these loans, they are not recognized in the financial statements. NOTE 4 - INTERFUND PAYABLES AND RECEIVABLES ADVANCES Advances to and advances from other funds at September 30, 2014 were as follows:

DUE FROM AND DUE TO Interfund receivables and payables generally result from recording the excess fees associated with Tax Collector and Property Appraiser services, as excess fees are allocated from the General Fund back to the funds that paid for the collection services. Excess fees are calculated after year end, and as such are interfund receivables and payables. Other outstanding balances are the result of time delays between the provision and payment of interfund services and to cover temporary cash deficits.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 6 - LONG-TERM DEBT – CONTINUED According to County resolutions authorizing the issuance of the Series 2005 Gas Tax Revenue Bonds and the Series 2012 and 2014 Gas Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, the issues are payable from and secured by liens on gas tax revenues. Bayshore Gateway Community Redevelopment Agency (Agency) tax increment revenues are pledged for the repayment of the Agency’s Series 2013 taxable note. The Agency has additionally covenanted to budget and appropriate from all legally available non-ad valorem revenues of the Agency to pay the Series 2013 note to the extent the tax increment revenues are insufficient. The Series 2013 note does not constitute an indebtedness of the County and is payable solely from the security provided by the Agency. The Agency is required to have a debt service reserve balance of $600,000 as of the end of fiscal year 2014. The Agency was in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2014. The County Water and Sewer District (District) has pledged future water and sewer customer revenues, net of certain operating expenses, to repay $94,470,023 in Series 2006, 2009 and 2013 revenue bonds. Proceeds from the bonds were used for rehabilitation or expansion of the District’s water and sewer systems. Principal and interest are payable through July 1, 2036, solely from the net revenues and certain other fees and charges derived from operation of the County's Water and Sewer District (District). The pledge of net revenues by the District from the operation of the system does not constitute a lien upon the system or any other property of the County. The resolutions authorizing the revenue bonds include an obligation for the District to fix, establish and maintain such rates and collect such fees so as to provide in each year net revenues, as defined in the bond resolutions, which together with system development fees (impact fees) and special assessment proceeds received shall be at least 125% of the annual debt service requirements for the bonds; provided, however, that net revenues in each fiscal year shall be adequate to pay at least 100% of the annual debt service on the bonds. Fiscal year 2014 pledged revenues, net of operating expenses, were $39,804,129 and $50,854,520 when system development fees and special assessments were included. Principal and interest paid on the bonds during fiscal year 2014 totaled $9,952,972, providing coverage of 400% and 511%, respectively. In addition, bond covenants require a renewal and replacement amount equal to $300,000 in the District funds. The District was in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2014. The District has several State Revolving Fund loans outstanding with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. These loans are collateralized by a lien on pledged revenues consisting of net revenues from the operations of the County Water and Sewer System and system development fees. The lien is subordinate in all respects to the liens placed upon pledged revenues established by bonded indebtedness. The District must maintain rates and charges for services which together with system development fees are sufficient to pay 115% to 125%, depending upon the individual loan agreement, of the annual debt service requirements on the loans, as well as satisfy the coverage requirements of all senior debt obligations. The District’s State Revolving Fund loans were in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2014. LEGAL DEBT MARGIN The Constitution of the State of Florida and the Florida Statutes set no legal debt limit.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 9 – PENSION PLAN OBLIGATIONS RETIREMENT PLAN Substantially all full time and part time employees of the County are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (the System), a cost sharing, multiple employer program administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement. The System provides two retirement plans from which eligible employees can choose: the Pension Plan (defined benefit) and the Investment Plan (defined contribution). The County follows the provisions of GASB 27, Accounting for Pensions by State and Local Governmental Employers, as described in the following disclosure. PLAN DESCRIPTION Employees hired prior to July 1, 2011 participating in the Pension Plan who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service for regular risk or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2.0% for senior management, and 3.0% for county elected officials of their final average compensation for each year of credited service; and for special risk, after age 55 with 6 years or with 25 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, up to 3.0% for each year of credited service times their final average compensation. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest years of salary earned during credited service. Vested employees may retire before age 62 for regular risk and 55 for special risk and receive retirement benefits that are reduced 5.0% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees hired on July 1, 2011 or later, participating in the Pension Plan who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service for regular risk or with 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2.0% for senior management, and 3.0% for county elected officials of their final average compensation for each year of credited service; and for special risk, after age 60 with 8 years or with 30 years of service and age 57 or after 30 years of special risk service regardless of age, or after 33 years of any creditable service are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life. Vested employees may retire before age 65 for regular risk and 60 for special risk and receive retirement benefits that are reduced 5.0% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the investment plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code. The Florida Legislature has sole authority to amend benefit provisions. The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may retire and have their benefits accumulate in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. Employees enrolled in DROP prior to July 1, 2011 earn interest on accumulated benefits in the Trust Fund at 6.5%; those enrolling on or after July 1, 2011 earn interest at 1.30%. The act of participating in the program does not change the individual employee’s employment conditions.
65
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 9 – PENSION PLAN OBLIGATIONS - CONTINUED PLAN DESCRIPTION – CONTINUED When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment. Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long as the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office. At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits, and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan. The System publishes an annual report that provides ten-year historical trend information regarding progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. The report may be obtained by writing the Division of Retirement, Research, Education and Policy Section, 1317 Winewood Boulevard, Tallahassee, Florida 32315-9000, or by calling (866) 738-2366, or accessing their internet site at www.dms.myflorida.com.

Rates from October 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 were 19.06% for special risk, 33.03% for county elected officials, 18.31% for senior management, 6.95% for regular employees and 12.84% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. The current rates, effective July 1, 2014, are 19.82% for special risk, 43.24% for county elected officials, 21.14% for senior management, 7.37% for regular employees and 12.28% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. In addition, as of July 1, 2011, employee contributions of 3.00% are required of all Pension Plan and Investment Plan members, except for those in DROP.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 11 – NET POSITION/FUND BALANCE CLASSIFICATION – CONTINUED
Governmental funds report fund balances as either spendable or non-spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified as restricted, committed, assigned or unassigned depending upon the extent to which there are external or internal constraints on the spending of these fund balances. Non-spendable fund balance: Amounts that are not in spendable form or that are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. Items that are not spendable also include inventories, prepaid amounts and long term portions of advances, loans and notes receivable. Spendable fund balance:
Restricted fund balance – Amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes through restrictions placed upon them by external resource providers such as creditors, grantors or contributors; or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. Committed fund balance – Amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes determined by the County’s highest decision making authority, the Board of County Commissioners, via ordinance. Commitments may be modified or removed by the Board of County Commissioners only by amending the ordinance that created the original commitment. Assigned fund balance – Amounts that are intended to be spent for specific purposes as determined by the Board of County Commissioners, but that are neither restricted nor committed to the specific purpose. Unassigned fund balance – Unassigned fund balance is the residual classification for the County’s general fund. Amounts in this classification are spendable but have not been deemed restricted, committed or assigned. Unassigned fund balance may also include negative balances for any governmental fund whose expenditures have exceeded the amounts restricted, committed or assigned for those specific purposes.
When both restricted and unrestricted amounts are available, the County spends the restricted amounts first, unless prohibited by law, grant agreements or other contractural arrangement. Further, when committed fund balance is available the County will use it first, followed by assigned fund balance and then unassigned fund balance for purposes in which any of the unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.

Charges to operating departments are based upon amounts believed by management to meet the required annual payouts during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating costs of the programs. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014 the operating departments were charged $35,788,218 for workers' compensation, health and property and casualty self-insurance programs. The claims loss reserve for workers' compensation, health and property and casualty of $4,494,828 reported at September 30, 2014 was calculated by third party actuaries based upon GASB Statement 30, Risk Financing Omnibus, which requires that a liability for claims be reported when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. The estimated liabilities for unpaid losses related to workers' compensation and property and casualty were discounted at 3.5%. It should be noted that the discount rate is an estimate based on the expected rate of return over extended periods. The estimated liabilities for unpaid losses related to health were not discounted as their turnover period is much shorter. Claims loss reserves of $2,989,325 are recorded as current liabilities. The Sheriff participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff's Self-Insurance Fund for its professional liability insurance. The fund is managed by representatives of the participating Sheriff offices and provides professional liability insurance to participating Sheriff agencies. The Florida Sheriff's Self-Insurance Fund provides liability insurance coverage subject to the following limitations: $5,000,000 for any one incident or occurrence and $10,000,000 for an annual aggregate per member. The Sheriff also participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff's Self-Insurance Fund program for workers' compensation coverage. The Florida Sheriff's Association Workers' Compensation Insurance Trust (FSAWIT) is a limited self-insurance fund providing coverage for the first $500,000 of every claim. Re-insurance is provided through a third party insurer for all claims exceeding $500,000 up to $10,000,000.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 12 - RISK MANAGEMENT - CONTINUED Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the past three years. Premiums charged to participating Sheriffs are based upon amounts believed by Fund management to meet the estimated annual payouts during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating costs of the program. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Self-Insurance Fund. The Sheriff cannot be additionally assessed for claims paid by the program. The Sheriff has also established a self-funded employee health plan. An internal service fund is used to account for the activities of the plan. Excess coverage has been purchased which provides specific claim excess coverage for any one incident exceeding $200,000. Payments to the internal service fund are based on actuarial estimates of amounts needed to pay prior year and current year claims including claims incurred but not yet reported. The claims loss reserve for health of $2,078,000 reported at September 30, 2014 was calculated by third party actuaries based upon GASB Statement 30, Risk Financing Omnibus, which requires that a liability for claims be reported when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. The entire Sheriff’s health claim loss reserve is recorded as a current liability.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 13 – OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS The Board of County Commissioners and the Tax Collector administer an additional single-employer defined benefit plan (OPEB Plan) and can amend the benefit provisions. The Board offers an OPEB Plan that subsidizes the cost of health care for its retirees who have at least 60% of eligible accrued sick leave remaining at the time of retirement and have completed 15 years of continuous service with the Board. In addition, the retiree must retire from the Board, be at least 55 years of age or have completed 30 years of service under the Florida Retirement System (FRS) and be eligible to receive an FRS benefit with no break in time. Such employees are eligible to receive a 50% to 100% subsidy toward the cost of coverage under the active plan. A subsidy is currently provided to fourteen retirees. The Tax Collector offers an OPEB plan that subsidizes 100% the cost of health care for employees with 10 years of service, between the ages of 54 and 64 and who exchange 800 hours of sick leave at retirement. At October 1, 2013, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, County plan participation consisted of: OPEB plan participants 2,070 Retirees receiving benefits 73 Funding Policy - The County has the authority to establish and amend funding policy. For the year ended September 30, 2014, the County contributed $784,612 to the OPEB Plan. No trust or agency fund has been established for the plan. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation - The annual cost of the County’s OPEB Plan 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 the normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liability over a period not to exceed 30 years. The following table shows the components of the County’s annual OPEB Plan cost for the year, the amount actually contributed, and the changes in the net OPEB Plan obligation.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 13 – OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS – CONTINUED 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 contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. Calculations for financial reporting purposes are based on the benefits provided under terms of the plan as understood by the employer and the plan members in effect at the time of each valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the employer and plan members in the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Consistent with that perspective, actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets.

ultimate rate of 5% for the 2020 fiscal year Plan Description - The Sheriff administers a single-employer defined benefit plan (OPEB Plan) and can amend the benefit provisions. Prior to 2010, the Sheriff offered an OPEB Plan that subsidizes the cost of health care for its retirees who have 6 years of creditable service with the Sheriff and who receive a monthly retirement benefit from the Florida Retirement System. The Sheriff subsidizes approximately 20% for both single and family coverage for qualifying individuals. In 2010, the subsidy was no longer made available to eligible retirees who chose to continue their health insurance coverage. Approximately 46% of retirees receive the subsidy. Additionally, in accordance with Florida Statute 112.0801, Sheriff’s employees who retire and immediately begin receiving benefits from the FRS have the option of paying premiums to continue in the Sheriff’s health insurance plan at the same group rate as for active employees. The plan does not issue a separate financial report.

Under the contract, the third party is responsible for the daily operations, capital improvements, closure, postclosure and financial assurance requirements of the active cells within the Naples and Immokalee landfill sites. Collier County is responsible for the postclosure costs relating to portions of the Naples and Immokalee landfill sites. None of the cells that Collier County is responsible for has accepted waste since December 1989. The County is also responsible for staffing and operating the scale house at each site. In accordance with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency rule Solid Waste Disposal and Facility Criteria and GASBS 18, Accounting for Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Closure and Postclosure Care Costs, a liability has been established representing amounts estimated to be spent on postclosure relating to cells for which Collier County is responsible. The County’s estimated liability in connection with the landfills is included in the proprietary funds statement of net position. The landfill liability will be reassessed on an annual basis, and any increase due to inflation, changes in technology or additional postclosure care requirements will be recorded as a current cost. The County held an escrow account with Fifth Third Bank in the amount of $11,563, as of October 31, 2012, to comply with Rule 62-701.630, Florida Administrative Code for the exclusive use for the long term care of the inactive Eustis Avenue Landfill site. There were no deposits, other than interest, from this account in fiscal year 2014. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) inspected the closed Class I, Eustis Landfill, on May 17, 2012, under Closure Permit # SF11-102604. The facility was in compliance at that time. Upon inspection, the site has stabilized. The Certification of Long Term Care letter, signed and sealed by a Professional Engineer, as required, was submitted to the FDEP on August 2, 2012. The funds in the escrow account with Fifth Third Bank were transferred to the BOCC concentration account and the account was closed November 1, 2012. NOTE 15 - SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENCIES LITIGATION The County is involved as defendant or plaintiff in certain litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of operations. In the opinion of County legal counsel, the range of potential recoveries or liabilities, other than as disclosed here, will not materially affect the financial position of the County.

COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2014 NOTE 15 - SIGNIFICANT CONTINGENCIES – CONTINUED During fiscal year 2012, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) made a decision to de-obligate $11,172,273 in sand replacement costs previously reimbursed by the Agency to Collier County. The reimbursed costs were related to a project to repair beach erosion due to Hurricanes Katrina and Wilma. The decision to de-obligate the funding is currently under appeal by Collier County. Due to the uncertainty of an appeal, and based upon the opinion of legal counsel, a liability was recorded in the amount of $11,172,273. In fiscal year 2014, Collier County received notification of FEMA’s decision to reinstate $1,853,756 of funding as a result of the first round of appeals. In addition, the liability was further offset by $6,806,817 in claims related to Tropical Storms Debby and Fay owed by the State of Florida for additional beach erosion repairs. The remaining balance of $2,511,700 is recorded as a liability in both the entity wide financial statements and the tourist development fund financial statements of Collier County. The Board has been named as a defendant in three related lawsuits, styled Francis Hussey, et al v. Collier County, Case No. 08-6933-CA; Board of County Commissioners v. Francis D. Hussey, et al., Case No. 08-6988-CA consolidated with 08-6933-CA; and Sean Hussey, et al. v. Collier County, et al., Case No. 08-7025-CA. On September 11, 2008, the Plaintiffs, Francis D. Hussey, Jr. and Mary P. Hussey, husband and wife, and Winchester Lakes Corporation, a Florida corporation, filed an inverse condemnation suit seeking monetary damages from Collier County, Florida, the Honorable Charlie Crist, the Governor of the State of Florida and the Florida Department of Community Affairs. The Husseys contend that the designation of certain real property owned by them through a growth management plan amendment adopted in 2002 had the effect of precluding mining activities on their property, thereby resulting in a substantial diminution in value of the real estate, which the Plaintiffs contend to be compensable under Florida law. The complaint alleges current damage claims in the amount of $91,500,000. The Plaintiffs have also presented a claim for "inverse condemnation based on a regulatory taking of plaintiffs' property," in an amount not specified in the complaint. The Wildlife Federation and Collier County Audubon Society were granted leave to intervene in the suit by the Court on April 29, 2009. On July 9, 2009, the Florida Wildlife Federation and Collier County Audubon Society served upon defendants Francis and Mary Hussey a Notice of Intent to Sue over violations of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) The initial cases were dismissed with prejudice in February 2011 by the trial court and are now on appeal to the Second District Court of Appeals. Pending the outcome of the first appeal, the parties entered into a Settlement Agreement with no costs to be incurred by the County. The Bert Harris Act statute requires Court approval of the Settlement Agreement which approval was denied by the Circuit Court Judge. The denial of this Settlement Agreement is now also on appeal at the Second District Court of Appeal. The Second District Court affirmed denial of the Settlement Agreement. The Second District Court reversed dismissal of the Bert Harris Act claim and affirmed dismissal of the inverse condemnation claim. The County is currently awaiting the Second District Court of Appeal’s ruling on the parties’ Post Opinion Motions. Given the proposed Settlement Agreement (dated February 12, 2013), the County believes that this litigation will be concluded with no risk of liability to the County. STATE AND FEDERAL GRANTS Grant monies received and disbursed by the County are for specific purposes and are subject to review by the grantor agencies. Such audits may result in requests for reimbursement due to disallowed expenditures. Based upon prior experience, the County does not believe that such disallowances, if any, would have a material effect on the financial position of the County.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida 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, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Collier County, Florida (County), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated February 13, 2015.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the County'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 County’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’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 was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weakness may exist that have not been identified.
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida
174
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the County'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.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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 AUDITORS’ REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS THAT COULD HAVE A DIRECT AND MATERIAL EFFECT ON EACH MAJOR
FEDERAL PROGRAM AND STATE PROJECT AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 AND CHAPTER 10.550,
RULES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program and State Project
We have audited Collier County, Florida’s (County) compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in OMB Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement and in Florida Department of Financial Services State Projects Compliance Supplement, that could have a direct and material effect on each of the County’s major federal programs and state projects for the year ended September 30, 2014. The County’s major federal programs and state projects are identified in the summary of auditors’ 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 and state projects.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the County’s major federal programs and state projects 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; OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Those standards, OMB Circular A-133 and Chapter 10.550, 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 or state project occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the County’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 and state project. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the County’s compliance.
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida
176
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program and State Project
In our opinion, the County complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs and state projects for the year ended September 30, 2014.
Other Matters
The results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance, which are required to be reported in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 and Rule 10.550 and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2014-001 and 2014-002. Our opinion on each major federal program is not modified with respect to these matters.
The County’s responses to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The County’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the County 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 County’s internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program or state project to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program and state project and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133 and Chapter 10.550, 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 County’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 or state project 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 or state project 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 or state project that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida
177
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 and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, we identified certain deficiencies in internal control over compliance, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2014-001 and 2014-002 that we consider to be significant deficiencies.
The County’s responses to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The County’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.
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 result of that testing based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-133 and Chapter 10.550. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Collier County, Florida Notes to the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal
Awards and State Financial Assistance Year Ended September 30, 2014
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Projects (the Schedule) includes the Federal and State grant activity for Collier County, Florida (the County) and is presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting for expenditures accounted for in the governmental funds and the accrual basis of accounting for expenditures in proprietary funds. Under the modified accrual basis, revenue is recognized if it is both measurable and available for use during the fiscal year and expenditures are recognized in the period liabilities are incurred, if measurable. Under the accrual basis, expenditures are recognized in the period liabilities are incurred.
The information in the schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and Section 215.97, Florida Statutes. Therefore, some amounts presented in the Schedule may differ from amounts presented, or used in the preparation of, the basic financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014.
2. Contingency
The grant revenue amounts received are subject to audit and adjustment. If any expenditures or expenses are disallowed by the grantor agencies as a result of such an audit, any claim for reimbursement to the grantor agencies would become a liability of the County. In the opinion of management, all grant expenditures are in compliance with the terms of the grant agreements and applicable federal and state laws and regulations unless addressed in schedule of findings.

2014-001 Timeliness of Cash Management
Federal Program/State Project Information U.S. Department of Transportation CFDA 20.106 Airport Improvement Program Award No. 3-12-031-010-2012, Award Year – 2012 Award No. 3-12-0142-010-2013, Award Year – 2013 U.S. Department of Homeland Security CFDA 97.036 Disaster Grants - Public Assistance (Presidentially Declared Disasters) Award No.PA-04-FL-1785-PW-01146, Award Year – 2009 Criteria
In accordance with OMB Circular A-102 Common Rule, the County’s methods and procedures for transferring funds should minimize the time elapsing between when a qualifying expenditure was paid by the County and the related transfer of grant funds to the County.
Condition
Based on our testing of cash drawdowns in fiscal year 2014, there were instances of significant time lag between when the County paid for grant expenditures and the date of the related drawdowns for CFDA 20.106, the Airport Improvement Program, and CFDA 97.036, Disaster Grants - Public Assistance.
Context
For CFDA 20.106, the Airport Improvement Program, auditors noted that both drawdowns tested were not considered timely, as there was 203 days of lag time between the payment of the oldest related invoice and the date of the related drawdown made in May of 2014 and 133 days of lag time for a drawdown made in December of 2013. For CFDA 97.036, Disaster Grants - Public Assistance, auditors noted that one of the two drawdowns tested was not considered timely, as there was 174 days of lag time between the payment of the oldest related invoice and the date of the related drawdown made in January of 2014.

2014-001 Timeliness of Cash Management (Continued)
Question Costs
None
Cause
There appears to be a lack of a process to minimize the time between disbursements and reimbursement requests in certain departments. Also, for grants allowing the reimbursement of certain costs incurred before the related grant agreements are executed, the County does not have a policy in place to immediately request reimbursement for qualifying grant expenditures incurred before the execution of the related grant agreements.
Effect
Drawdowns or reimbursement requests were submitted to grantors significantly past the time the County paid for the related qualifying expenditures and did not follow the County’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Department’s internal control protocol to target execution of draws within 30-45 days after quarter end unless the grantor agency contracts explicitly state otherwise. This could lead to issues with the monitoring of the timeliness of carrying out projects in applicable programs, could adversely affect County cash flows, and could result in the grantor not reimbursing the County for reimbursements not requested within a reasonable period of time.
Recommendation
The County should implement procedures to minimize the time lag between the request for cash drawdown and the time that the disbursements are paid by the County by ensuring the County’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Department’s internal control protocol to target execution of draws within 30-45 days after quarter-end is being followed by all departments. Also, the County should develop policies and procedures to ensure the County immediately requests reimbursement for qualifying grant expenditures incurred before the related grant agreement.
Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan
Timeliness: OMB, Department Management and Project Managers continually review project timelines as part of required quarterly grantor reporting.
Cash Flow: Collier County by budget policy maintains at a minimum 10% of annual expenditures as unrestricted cash and cash equivalents in the General Fund. Over the last four years, the General Fund’s beginning cash position has averaged approximately 20% of General Fund expenses. At year ending September 30, 2014, the General Fund cash position totaled $59.8 million or 20.9% of annual expenditures for the year ending September 30, 2014. This cash position is more than adequate to support grantor expenditures due reimbursement. Collier County maintains an excellent investment quality credit rating which was most recently reaffirmed by Standard and Poor’s (S&P) in November of 2014 where this rater elevated the County’s issuer rating to AAA, the highest rating available in the industry.
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs
Federal Awards Programs and State Financial Assistance Projects
Year Ended September 30, 2014
189
Circumstance: The Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA) Program (97.036) for beach renourishment largely incurred older expenditures due to garnering the grantors concurrency on the method of allocation of design expenditures between storm related and normal erosion before submitting the first draw for reimbursement. Letting a single contract for both grant and non-eligible grant activity is an allowable and efficient practice. Current contract scopes let during FY14 forward include additional detail that creates documentation without question and thus a quicker turn around to request reimbursement. The Airport Improvement Program (20.106) largely incurred older expenditures due to the invoicing of allowable pre-award expenditures. Capital airport projects require an independent third party to prepare a cost estimate prior to application of a grant capital project. The cost estimate is a required document within the application. Expenditures are eligible for reimbursement until the grant application is submitted, the grantor awards the project and a grant contract is fully executed. This process is several months long. In addition, the estimate was not submitted for reimbursement until the construction phase produced the first invoice. This created a significant time delay.
Corrective Action: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) internal control protocol will be updated to expand the protocol to address the identification of pre-award expenditure and target a draw request within 30-45 days after grant award execution.

Part IV - Findings and Questioned Costs – Major State Projects
This section identifies the audit findings required to be reported under Rule 10.554(1)(l)4, Rules of the Auditor General.
2014-002 Use of E-Verify
State of Florida, Department of Transportation CSFA 55.010 Public Transit Block Grant Award No. AQQ16, Award Year – 2012
Criteria
The Vendor/Contractor is required to utilize U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s E-Verify system to verify the employment eligibility of all new employees hired by the Vendor/Contractor during the term of the contract.
Condition
The Vendor/Contractor did not use the E-Verify system for employees hired during the County’s 2014 fiscal year.
COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs
Federal Awards Programs and State Financial Assistance Projects
Year Ended September 30, 2014
190
Context
The Vendor/Contractor hired 13 employees during the County’s 2014 fiscal year. While the E-Verify system was not used, the Vendor/Contractor has a policy requiring a properly completed and signed Form I-9 be provided prior to employment. All 13 employees hired during the County’s 2014 fiscal year submitted signed I-9 Forms. Vendor/Contractor personnel reviewed acceptable forms of identification and signed the forms as well.
Questioned Costs
None
Cause
The Vendor/Contractor did not comply with the terms of the agreement to utilize E-Verify and the County’s monitoring procedures did not identify this issue.
Effect
The use of E-Verify is a more effective tool for determining the eligibility of a person for employment and would decrease the chance of hiring an ineligible person leading to questioned/unallowable costs.
Recommendation
County grant personnel should understand and become familiar with the terms and conditions of their vendor/contractor agreements and develop tools to assist in the effective monitoring of compliance requirements.
Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan
Circumstance: The County currently has protocols in place to require use of E-Verify in all vendor contracts as well as obtain verification the vendor is registered to use the E-Verify system. In this case, the vendor was assumed by another company and proof of registration by the new company was inadvertently overlooked. Corrective Action: OMB partners with Purchasing to coordinate and review grant solicitations and contracts for compliance including E-Verify. Management has instituted protocols to review assumption agreements to include proof the new company is registered to use E-Verify. The managing Department of the vendor contract immediately instituted a control with the transit operator vendor. Standard procedure requires each employee that supports transit system operations hired by the vendor to be issued a Collier County security badge in order to access allowed County facilities. This badge is no longer approved for issuance by Collier County’s Public Transit Manager until the E-Verify proof of the new hire is provided.

Upon selecting 60 cash drawdowns, the auditor noted several instances where there was a significant time lag between when Collier County paid for grant expenditures and when the disbursement was requested for reimbursement. There was a lack of a process to minimize the time between disbursement and reimbursement request. This could adversely affect County cash flows as well as result in the grantor not reimbursing Collier County for reimbursements requested within a reasonable time frame.
Auditor Recommendation
The County should implement procedures that minimize the time elapsing between the request for a cash drawdown and the time that the disbursements are paid by the County.
Fiscal 2013 Status
Collier County’s Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Department has developed an internal control protocol to target execution of draws within 30-45 days after quarter-end unless the grantor agency contract explicitly states otherwise. Based on our testing of cash drawdowns in fiscal year 2013, it appears improvements had been made since the prior year with regard to timely reimbursement requests. However, for CFDA 20.205, we noted a drawdown that occurred on June 20, 2013 for $253,350. The initial disbursement within the time period pertaining to this drawdown was incurred 155 days prior to this reimbursement request. For CSFA 55.010, there was a 254 day time lag between the earliest invoice posting date and the actual reimbursement date.
Current Status
Based on our testing of cash drawdowns in fiscal year 2014, it appears further improvements have been made with regard to timely reimbursement requests for the two programs noted to still have issues in fiscal year 2013, CFDA 20.205 and CSFA 55.010. However, for CSFA 55.010, auditors noted that one of the two drawdown requests tested had a 500 day time lag between the payment earliest invoice and the related drawdown request date.
While some improvement was noted, we identified excessive lag times for one sample selection for CSFA 55.010. This finding is considered partially cleared.

Finding 2012-03
Federal Program Information
U.S. Department of Agriculture Passed through the Florida Department of Education CFDA 10.559 Summer Food Service Program for Children
Condition
The auditor noted meals served on a daily basis are tracked at each site, and the daily manual tracking sheets are sent to the Parks and Recreation Administration office. Personnel at office then entered the manual data into a monthly manual tracking spreadsheet, which was then used to summarize the total meals served to prepare monthly reimbursement requests. The auditors selected the daily tracking sheets from two sites from a population of 11 sites for the months of June 2012 and July 2012, the Park and Recreation’s manual tracking sheets for the months selected above and the reimbursement requests. The auditors noted that the amounts recorded on the daily tracking sheets did not agree to the monthly manual tracking sheets held by the Parks and Recreation office. Also, the amounts on the monthly tracking sheets did not trace to the reimbursement request submitted to the Florida Department of Agriculture. Therefore, reimbursement requests were submitted to the grantor that could not be fully substantiated with evidence that they were qualifying meals served.
Auditor Recommendation
The auditor recommended that the personnel administering the grant program implement procedures to ensure that reimbursement requests are supported by actual meals served.
Current Status
Corrective action was taken.
2013-001 Timely Expenditure Requirements
Federal Program Information
U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development CFDA 14.218 CDBG – Community Development Block Grants/Entitlement Grants
Condition
The County’s 60 day drawdown ratios measured on August 2, 2012 and 2013 were 2.06 and 2.65, respectively.
Recommendation
We recommend that the County should continually monitor its ongoing and planned housing rehabilitation, development, and other CDBG-related projects funded to ensure that grant funds are being consistently spent according to plan. When unexpected project delays arise, we recommend that the County have a contingency plan in place to accelerate the commencement of future projects so that the line of credit remains under the required threshold at all times.

Summary Debt Statement for Fiscal Year 2014
General Governmental Debt:
Collier County’s Debt Policy sets the maximum allowable governmental debt ratio at 13.0%, and the County continues to operate below this self-imposed maximum. The Constitution of the State of Florida and the Florida Statutes set no legal debt limit. The governmental debt ratio is the ratio of debt service requirements to total bondable revenues, as defined by Collier County’s Debt Policy. It should be noted that while ad valorem taxes are bondable for purposes of the governmental debt ratio calculation, they may only be pledged pursuant to voter referendum.
The governmental debt ratio decreased from 9.4%, as of September 30, 2013, to 8.1% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2014. The decrease in the debt ratio for FY-2014 is primarily the result of an overall decline in annual debt service payments of 10.3%. The decrease in annual debt service payments is primarily a result of the refinancing of the remaining portions of the Series 2005 Gas Tax Revenue Bonds. Within the bondable revenues, developmental fee collections increased by 19.4%, tourist development tax receipts increased by 18.3% and half cent sales tax revenues increased by 11.2%. Overall, recent debt restructurings, coupled with the stabilization of general governmental revenues, will likely produce a decrease in the general governmental debt ratio for the fiscal year ending 2015, assuming no new debt issuance.
In May of 2014, Collier County refinanced substantially all of its outstanding Series 2005 Gas Tax Revenue Bonds with the Series 2014 Gas Tax Refunding Revenue Bond. The Series 2014 bonds have a fixed interest rate of 2.3% and achieved a net present value savings on the refunded bonds of 11.4%.
Governmental Debt Ratings Table:
Current Ratings (as of 2/10/2015) Fitch Moody’s Standard & Poor’s
Gas Tax Revenue Bonds AA- A2 A
Special Obligation Bonds AA Aa2 AA+
A rating of AA is an indication by Fitch Ratings of an investment grade instrument, but one which carries a slightly higher risk than a AAA rated bond. Fitch also uses intermediate +/- modifiers for each AA category.
A rating of Aa2 is an indication by Moody’s Investors Service of a high quality investment grade instrument with very low credit risk, but “their susceptibility to long-term risks appears somewhat greater” than a Aaa rated bond. A rating of A1 is an indication by Moody’s of an investment grade instrument with low credit risk but the bond has elements present that suggest a higher susceptibility to impairment over the long term than a Aa investment. Moody’s uses intermediate modifiers of 1 (higher) to 3 (lower) within the Aa and A ranges.
3
In November of 2014, Standard and Poor’s upgraded Collier County’s Special Obligation Bonds from AA to AA+. A rating of AA+ is an indication by Standard and Poor’s of an investment grade instrument issued by a “quality borrower” but with slightly more risk than a AAA grade investment. A rating of A is an indication by Standard and Poor’s of an investment grade instrument but one more susceptible to adverse changes in circumstances and economic conditions than AAA or AA instruments. Standard and Poor’s also uses intermediate +/- modifiers for each category.
The County’s Special Obligation Revenue Bonds are secured by a covenant to appropriate in the annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from Non-Ad Valorem Revenues amounts sufficient pay debt service on the Special Obligation Bonds. The combined gas tax revenues are pledged for the payment of all the Gas Tax Revenue bonds. Fiscal year 2014 gas tax revenues covered the current year debt service payments on all outstanding Gas Tax Revenue bonds at 154%.
Collier County Enterprise Debt:
Currently, the Collier County Water and Sewer District (District) is the only County enterprise activity with bonded debt outstanding. The Collier County Debt Policy does not set a maximum allowable enterprise debt ratio, but coverage requirements related to the District’s debt are set by bond covenants. Net revenues, defined as operating revenues plus non-operating revenues less operating expenses, excluding depreciation, must cover bonded debt service at 100%. Total pledged funds, defined as net revenues plus impact fees and special assessments must cover bonded debt at 125%. Net revenue coverage on bonded debt was 400% and total pledged funds coverage on bonded debt was 511% for fiscal year 2014, up from 315% and 430%, respectively, for FY-2013. Bonded debt coverages increased due to the decrease in bonded debt service achieved through State Revolving Fund funded refinancing. Conversely, the District’s calculated coverage on subordinated debt, all in the form of State Revolving Fund Loans, decreased from 429% to 353% as a result of the refinancing. The total pledged funds coverage required by the subordinated loan agreements varies between 115% and 125%, depending upon the individual loan agreement. Net revenue available for debt service increased during fiscal year 2014, mainly due to an increase in charges for services due to increased billed water consumption.
In November of 2013, the Collier County Water and Sewer District borrowed $9,922,122 from the State of Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s State Revolving Fund Loan Program for purposes of advance refunding a portion of the Water and Sewer District’s Series 2006 Revenue Bonds. The State Revolving Fund proceeds, together with other available monies, were placed in escrow. The State Revolving Fund loan has a fixed interest rate and an all in true interest cost of 2.4%. The advance refunding achieved a net present value savings of 9.6% on the refunded bonds.

Enterprise Debt Ratings Table:
Current Ratings (as of 2/10/2015) Fitch Moody’s Standard & Poor’s*
Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds AAA Aa2 -
*- Standard & Poor’s does not currently rate County Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds.
In June of 2014, Fitch Ratings upgraded the District’s Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds to AAA. A rating of AAA is an indication by Fitch Ratings of an investment grade instrument with very little credit risk.
A rating of Aa2 is an indication by Moody’s Investors Service of a high quality investment grade instrument, but “their susceptibility to long-term risks appears somewhat greater” than a Aaa rated bond. Moody’s uses intermediate modifiers of 1 (higher) to 3 (lower) within the Aa and A ranges.
Water, wastewater and irrigation quality water user rates and miscellaneous revenues are used to recover system operating, maintenance and capital costs as well as pay debt service. In order to ensure adequate funding a rate study was recently conducted by an independent rate consultant. During September 2014 the District’s governing board approved phased rate increases. The District’s water and sewer user rates increased by 9.0%, effective 10/01/2014 with subsequent increases of 5.0% effective 10/01/2015 and 10/01/2016. Over recent years the District has operated on a pay as you go basis, avoided borrowing and maintained financial stability. The District’s current focus is the optimization of resources and risk based prioritization of capital projects within the current rate structure.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Clerk’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility 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 auditors’ 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.

Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court
Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information for the Clerk as of September 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and budgetary comparisons for the general fund, court services fund, and other special revenue fund thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Clerk. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2014, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Clerk’s financial statements. The combining statement, as listed in the table of contents, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. The combining statement is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the 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 statement is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated January 20, 2015 on our consideration of the Clerk'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 included under the heading Independent Auditors’ 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 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 Clerk’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reporting Entity
The Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. The Clerk’s Budget is presented pursuant to Chapter 218, Florida Statutes. Additionally, a budget is submitted to the Florida Clerks of Court Operations Corporation for the Court Services Fund.
The financial statements presented include the general fund, special revenue funds, and agency funds of the Clerk’s office. The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Clerk to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Clerk. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The financial activities of the Clerk, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Clerk is considered to be financially accountable.
The general operations of the Clerk are funded by: fees from third parties, appropriations from the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board), appropriations from the State of Florida, and interest income. Pursuant to Chapter 218 Florida Statutes, funds remaining in the general fund at fiscal year-end, in excess of amounts expended, are returned to the Board. Excess revenues returned to the Board are reflected as transfers out in the Clerk’s general fund. Court-related operations are funded by the collection of fines, fees costs and service charges and a child support grant. Any surplus of revenues after expenditures in this fund is remitted to the State in January of the next year. Special revenue funds are retained by the Clerk and budgeted according to requirements of each source.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The State transitioned the Clerk in July, 2013 to be self-funded from fees and fines. Pursuant to Section 28.37, Florida Statute, any surplus revenues over expenditures will be returned to the State.
Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation
These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Clerk. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
The Clerk reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund –The general fund is used to account for all revenue and expenditures applicable to the general operations of the Clerk, which are not accounted for in another fund. All operating revenue not specifically restricted or designated as to use, is recorded in the general fund.
Court Services Fund – The court services fund is a special revenue fund established to account for court-related filing fees, service charges, fines, court costs, appropriations and expenses of the Clerk as mandated by Section 28.35, Florida Statutes.
Other Special Revenue Fund – The other special revenue fund is a special revenue fund used to account for revenues mandated by Section 28.24(12)(d), Florida Statutes, to be held in trust by the Clerk and used exclusively for equipment and maintenance of equipment, personnel training, and technical assistance in modernizing the public records system of the office; and revenues mandated by Section 28.24(12)(e), Florida Statutes, to be used exclusively for funding court-related technology needs. This fund also accounts for revenues and expenditures pursuant to Section 28.37, Florida Statutes.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Clerk considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.
Charges for services, interest income, and other revenues are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period.
With the implementation of Revision 7 to Article V on July 1, 2004, the Clerk’s activities are classified as court-related and non-court-related. The Clerk’s general fund activity, which is classified as non-court-related, is funded through service charges for recording instruments and documents into the official records, interest income and through transfers in from the Board of County Commissioners.
Court-related operations are funded by the collection of fines, fees costs and service charges and a child support grant. Any surplus of revenues after expenditures in this fund is remitted to the State in January of the next year.
Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures for the general fund be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenues were recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as other financing use in the accompanying purpose financial statements.
Capital outlays expended in governmental funds are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Clerk.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Additionally, the Clerk reports the following fund type: Fiduciary Funds – Agency Funds – Agency funds are used to account for assets held by the Clerk in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other governments, and other funds. The agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the full accrual basis of accounting. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Clerk does not currently hold investments. Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Clerk are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 240 hours of unused vacation leave (with limited exceptions per the employee manual). Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation leave and sick leave are included in governmental funds when the payments are made to employees. The Clerk is not legally required to accumulate financial resources for these un-matured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the Clerk’s funds, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
Prepaid Expenses The Clerk has elected to follow GASB Codification 1600.127 Other Expenditure Recognition Alternatives and expends maintenance costs as they are incurred and does not allocate the cost between periods.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Use of Estimates The preparation of these financial statements requires management of the Clerk to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ slightly from those estimates. Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent. Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. There were no non-spendable fund balances at the Clerk as of September 30, 2014. Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Clerk’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Clerk’s fund balances for the special revenue funds fall into the spendable restricted category. Fund balances maintained in the special revenue funds are restricted pursuant to certain Florida Statutes and have been presented as restricted fund balances in the fund financial statements in accordance with GASB Statement No. 54. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the Clerk considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the Clerk considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the Clerk has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions.

2. Budgetary Process
Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Clerk’s annual budget. The Clerk prepares and approves the budget for the Clerk s non-court functions, including special revenue fund and the budget related to the recording function based on anticipated fees. The budget of the Clerk for the general fund transfer from the Board is submitted to and approved by the Board.
Pursuant to Section 28.36, Florida Statutes, a balanced court-related budget must be prepared on or before June 1 (for the period starting the next October 1 through September 30) and submitted to the Florida Clerks of Court Operations Corporation (Corporation).
If the Clerk estimates that projected revenues are insufficient to meet anticipated expenditures, the Clerk must report the revenue deficit to the Corporation. Once the Corporation verifies the revenue deficit, the Clerk can increase fees up to the maximum amounts specified by law to resolve the deficit. If a revenue deficit is still projected, a request can be submitted to release funds from the Department of Revenue Clerks of the Court Trust Fund.
The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, except for the classification and presentation of the distribution of excess court revenue to the State for the court services fund, which is treated as other financing use (transfer out) for budgetary purposes and as an expenditure in the statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance in the court services fund. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Any subsequent amendments to the Clerk’s transfer budget funded by the Board must be approved by the Board, amendments to the Clerk’s fee budget are at the discretion of the Clerk, and any amendments of the court budget must be approved by the Corporation for the court services fund.

2. Budgetary Process (continued)
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Clerk.
The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year.
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the Clerk’s cash and cash equivalents was as follows:
Type Maturity Carrying
Value Credit Rating Cash on hand N/A $ 7,600 N/A Demand deposits N/A 34,873,202 N/A Total cash and cash equivalents $ 34,880,802
The Clerk maintains a cash pool for the deposits of all governmental and agency funds. Each fund type’s portion of these balances is presented as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying financial statements. Interest income is allocated to each fund based on its proportionate balance in the pool.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued)
Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2014, are reported as $8,713,840 and $26,166,962 in the governmental funds and fiduciary funds, respectively. Custodial Credit Risk At September 30, 2014, the Clerk’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss. Credit Risk The Clerk’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Clerk to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Inter-local Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury, federal agencies and instrumentalities, or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. Additionally, Florida Statutes allow local governments to place public funds with institutions that participate in a collateral pool under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued)
Interest Rate Risk The Clerk has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk and does not currently hold any investments. 4. Interest Income and Investment of County Funds Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 28.33, the Clerk invests all County funds in excess of those required to meet expenses. Interest income is allocated to each fund based on its proportionate balance in the pool. Interest income of $16,916 is reported in the general fund for the year ended September 30, 2014, as the portion of interest earned on Clerk funds. 5. Capital Assets Capital assets used by the governmental fund type operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Clerk. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the governmental funds of the Clerk and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Clerk maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.

7. Employee Retirement Plan
Substantially all full-time employees of the Clerk filling regularly established positions are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (System), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement. The System is a defined benefit plan for all state, and participating county, district school board, community college and university employees (Pension Plan). The System also offers eligible employees participation in an alternative defined Employee Retirement Plan contribution plan (Investment Plan). The Clerk participates in the Elected State Officers Class. The plan is administered by the State of Florida. Contribution rates are established statewide for all participating governmental units. Accordingly, the actuarial information and related disclosures attributable to the Clerk’s employees are not determinable.
Employees enrolled in the plan prior to July 1, 2011, who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service, or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management and 3% for County Elected Officials for each year of credited service times the final average compensation. Employees enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service or 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to the retirement benefits as outline above. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest fiscal years of salary earned during credited service for those enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, and the eight highest fiscal years of salary for those hired on or after July 1, 2011. Vested employees may retire before age 62 and receive benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the Investment Plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code.
The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may participate as of their normal retirement date and have their benefits accumulated in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. Employees enrolled in DROP prior to July 1, 2011, earn interest on accumulated benefits in the Trust Fund at 6.5%, those enrolling on or after July 1, 2011, earn interest at 1.3%. The participation in the program does not change conditions of employment. When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment.

September 30, 2014
7. Employee Retirement Plan (continued)
Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long as the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office. At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits, and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan. The System publishes an annual report that provides ten-year historical trend information about progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. This report may be obtained by writing to the Division of Retirement, Research, Education and Policy Section, 1317 Winewood Boulevard, Building 8, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1560, or by calling (877) 377-1737, or accessing their Internet site at www.dms.MyFlorida.com. The Clerk is required to contribute an actuarially determined rate. Rates from October 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, were 33.03% for County Elected Officials, 18.31% for senior management, 6.95% for regular employees and 12.84% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. The current rates, effective July 1, 2014, are 43.24% for County Elected Officials, 21.14% for senior management, 7.37% for regular employees and 12.28% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. In addition, as of July 1, 2011, employee contributions of 3% are required of all Pension Plan and Investment Plan members, except for those in DROP. The contribution requirements of the Clerk are established and may be amended by the State of Florida. The Clerk’s employer contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013 and 2013, were $738,661, $562,051 and $452,954, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year.

9. Risk Management Collier County, Florida (County) is exposed to various risks of loss, including, but not limited to, general liability, health and life, property and casualty, auto and physical damage, and workers’ compensation. The County is substantially self-insured and accounts for and finances its risk of uninsured losses through an internal service fund. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the County. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Clerk was charged $2,639,081 by the County for participation in the risk management program. The County retains the first $500,000 per claim for workers’ compensation, and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to the statutory limits for each injury and illness. The County also provides coverage for $300,000 per occurrence for general liability and auto liability coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. Negligence claims in excess of the statutory limits set in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, which provide for limited sovereign immunity of $200,000/$300,000 per occurrence can only be recovered through an act of the State Legislature. Property claims are subject to a 5% named storm deductible and a $50,000 deductible for all other perils. The County retains the first $100,000 per claim/$200,000 per occurrence for public official errors and omissions and crime coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage in the last year. Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the last three years.

9. Risk Management (continued)
The County is self-insured for health claims covering all of its employees and their eligible dependents. The County retains the first $325,000 per covered member and has purchased outside excess coverage for all claims exceeding this amount. An actuarial valuation is performed each year to estimate the amounts needed to pay prior and future claims and to establish reserves. 10. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan The Clerk follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for its post-employment benefits. Plan Description The Clerk participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however, additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. The Clerk provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care. Funding Policy The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self-insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Clerk had a net OPEB obligation of $39,865 as of September 30, 2014.

10. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued)
The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2013. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post-employment benefit plan as a whole. 11. Claims and Contingencies Litigation The Clerk is routinely involved as defendant, plaintiff and as a “party in interest” in carrying out its statutorily and constitutionally assigned tasks. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Clerk was involved in approximately 98,722 collection cases. These are court actions designed to collect fees and costs imposed by the courts in criminal cases. The Clerk was involved in approximately 351 bond forfeiture actions. Those cases involve collecting forfeitures of criminal appearance bonds. There are approximately 17 actions for foreclosure of property in which the Clerk has been a named defendant. The Clerk is involved in a class action involving the constitutionality of a Florida Statute relating to ownership of interest earned on monies paid into the registry of the court and an inverse condemnation allegation asserting that the Clerk has improperly retained interest accruing on funds in the court’s registry. The trial court staged the case in Collier County pending the outcome of a case in Hillsborough County based upon very similar facts and involving the same issues. The Second District has ruled in favor of the Clerk in the Hillsborough case and the plaintiff sought reconsideration. The reconsideration has been denied but the time for mandate to issue has not expired, so the case is not final.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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 Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court Collier County, Florida 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 each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Clerk’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 20, 2015. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Clerk’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 Clerk’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Clerk’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 was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Clerk’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. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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 AUDITORS’ REPORT Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the general fund of the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser (Property Appraiser), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Property Appraiser’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion 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 auditors’ 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 opinion.

Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser
Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the general fund of the Property Appraiser as of September 30, 2014, and the changes in financial position and budgetary comparison of its general fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, only for that portion of the major funds of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Property Appraiser. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2014, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report on our consideration of the Property Appraiser’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 included under the heading Independent Auditors’ 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 purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the result 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 Property Appraiser’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting principles and policies used in the preparation of the financial statements of the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser (Property Appraiser).
Reporting Entity
The Property Appraiser is an elected official of the County, pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Florida, Article VIII, Section 1(d). The Property Appraiser is part of the primary government of the County. Although the Board and the Florida Department of Revenue approve the Property Appraiser’s total operating budget, the Property Appraiser is responsible for the administration and the operation of the Property Appraiser’s office. The Property Appraiser’s financial statements include only the funds of the Property Appraiser’s office. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Property Appraiser is considered to be financially accountable.
The financial activities of the Property Appraiser, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Property Appraiser to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Property Appraiser. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Property Appraiser, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Property Appraiser. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Property Appraiser’s only governmental fund is the general fund. The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Property Appraiser and includes all transactions not accounted for in another fund.
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Property Appraiser considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.
Interest revenue and miscellaneous revenue are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period.
Substantially all of the Property Appraiser’s revenue is received from taxing authorities. These monies are virtually unrestricted and are revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt; earlier if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met.
Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues exceed annual expenditures be remitted to each governmental agency or the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized.
Capital outlays expended in the general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Property Appraiser.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Refund of “Excess Fees”
Florida Statutes further provide that the excess of revenues over expenditures held by the Property Appraiser be distributed to each governmental agency or the Board in the same proportion as the fees paid by each governmental agency bear to total fee revenues. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as either an expenditure or other financing use-transfer out, respectively, in the accompanying financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Compensated Absences
All full-time employees of the Property Appraiser are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 200 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service, not to exceed 1,040 hours. Vacation and sick leave payments are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to the employees. The Property Appraiser does not, nor is legally required to, accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Property Appraiser, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
Prepaid Expenses
The Property Appraiser has elected to follow GASB Codification 1600.127 Other Expenditure Recognition Alternatives and expends maintenance costs as they are incurred and does not allocate the cost between periods.

Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Property Appraiser to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Budgetary Process
Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Property Appraiser’s annual budget. The Property Appraiser prepares a budget for the general fund to the Florida Department of Revenue for approval. A copy of the approved budget is provided to the Board. Any subsequent amendments to the Property Appraiser’s total budget must be approved by the Florida Department of Revenue. The budget for the general fund is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budget control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Property Appraiser.
The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
2. Budgetary Process (continued)
The Property Appraiser’s budget is prepared under a budgetary basis of accounting that differs from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Certain revenues received from non ad valorem commissions and other sources and expenditures paid for from these revenues are not recognized under the budgetary basis of accounting; however, the revenues and expenditures have been recognized under GAAP. Additionally, there is a difference between the budgetary basis of accounting and GAAP in the treatment of excess fee distributions to entities outside of the County’s reporting entity. On a budgetary basis, distributions of excess fees are reported as other financing uses. On a GAAP basis, these distributions are reported as expenditures because there is a reduction in financial resources of the County.
The actual results of operations in the statement of revenues and expenditures, and changes in fund balance – budget to actual – general fund are presented on a budgetary basis. Adjustments to convert the results of operations for the year ended September 30, 2014, from the budgetary basis of accounting to the GAAP basis of accounting are as follows:
MiscellaneousRevenues
Budgetary Basis -$ Revenues not budgeted:
Miscellaneous 811,608 Interest 5,472
GAAP Basis 817,080$
During the year, the Property Appraiser exceeded the budgeted amount for operating expenditures and capital outlay mainly as a result of computer equipment, office equipment, vehicles, contractual services and aerial photography related expenditures which were not expected at the time of the budget preparation. These budget overages were offset by budget savings in the personnel services category, and the recognition of unbudgeted revenues, such that overall, total expenditures were less than the total budgeted expenditure amount.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the Property Appraiser’s cash and cash equivalents was as follows:
Carrying Value
Cash on hand 125$ Demand deposits 1,082,934Total cash and cash equivalents 1,083,059$
Type
Custodial Credit Risk
At September 30, 2014, the Property Appraiser’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss.
Credit Risk
The Property Appraiser’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Property Appraiser to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision; or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost.

Interest Rate Risk
The Property Appraiser has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets used by the Property Appraiser are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Property Appraiser. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the general fund of the Property Appraiser, and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Property Appraiser maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
The following is a summary of changes in capital assets for the year ended September 30, 2014:
October 1 September 302013 Additions Deductions 2014
Improvements other than buildings 15,332$ -$ -$ 15,332$ Machinery and equipment 1,568,340 116,843 (124,355) 1,560,828 Total capital assets 1,583,672 116,843 (124,355) 1,576,160

5. Long-Term Liabilities
The following is a summary of changes in long-term liabilities, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida:
October 1 September 302013 Increase Decrease 2014
Accrued compensated absences 257,708$ 57,374$ 15,183$ 299,899$
Of these liabilities, approximately $150,000 is expected to be paid during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015, which will be included in the operating costs of the general fund when expended. These long-term liabilities are not reported in the financial statements of the Property Appraiser since they have not matured.
6. Employee Retirement Plans
Substantially all full-time employees of the Property Appraiser are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (System), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement. The System is a defined benefit plan for all state, and participating county, district school board, community college and university employees (Pension Plan). The System also offers eligible employees participation in an alternative defined contribution plan (Investment Plan). The Property Appraiser participates in the Elected State Officers’ Class. The plan is administered by the State of Florida. Contribution rates are established statewide for all participating governmental units. Accordingly, the actuarial information and related disclosures attributable to the Property Appraiser’s employees are not determinable.
Employees enrolled in the plan prior to July 1, 2011 who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service, or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management and 3% for county elected officials for each year of credited service times the final average compensation. Employees enrolled on or after July 1, 2011 who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service or 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to the retirement benefits as outlined above. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest fiscal years of salary earned during credited service for those enrolled prior to July 1, 2011 and the eight highest fiscal years of salary for those hired on or after July 1, 2011.

September 30, 2014
6. Employee Retirement Plans (continued)
Vested employees may retire before age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) and receive benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the Investment Plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code.
The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may participate as of their normal retirement date and have their benefits accumulate in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. Employees enrolled in DROP prior to July 1, 2011 earn interest on accumulated benefits in the Trust Fund at 6.5%, those enrolling on or after July 1, 2011 earn interest at 1.3%. The participation in the program does not change conditions of employment. When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment. Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long as the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office. At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits, and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan.
The System publishes an annual report that provides ten-year historical trend information about progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due.

Plan Description
The Property Appraiser participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report, however additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. In addition, the Property Appraiser provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care.
Funding Policy
The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Property Appraiser had a net OPEB obligation of $29,170 as of September 30, 2014.

The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2013. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post employment benefit plan as a whole.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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
Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser Collier County, Florida 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 general fund of the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser (Property Appraiser), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Property Appraiser’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 7, 2015.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Property Appraiser’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 opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Property Appraiser’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Property Appraiser’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 was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
18
Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser
Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Property Appraiser’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.
Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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 AUDITORS' REPORT
Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Sheriff (Sheriff), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Sheriff’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility 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 auditors’ 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.
1
Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff
Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information for the Sheriff as of September 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows and budgetary comparison thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County that is attributable to the Sheriff. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2014, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Schedule of Funding Progress for the Retiree Health Plan, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the financial statements. Such information, although not a required part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the 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 financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the 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. Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.

Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff
Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Sheriff’s financial statements. The combining statements, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. The combining statements are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the 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 statements are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 14, 2015 on our consideration of the Sheriff’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 included under the heading Independent Auditors’ 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 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 Sheriff’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reporting Entity
The Collier County, Florida Sheriff (Sheriff) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. Pursuant to Chapter 129, Florida Statutes, the Sheriff’s budget is submitted to the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board) for approval. The Sheriff is the chief law enforcement officer of Collier County, Florida (County) and is responsible for operating the County’s corrections facilities.
The financial statements include the general fund, special revenue funds, proprietary fund (internal service fund), and agency funds of the Sheriff’s office. The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Sheriff to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Sheriff. They are not intended to present fairly the financial positions and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Sheriff is financially accountable.
Chapter 10.550 Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits requires the Sheriff to only present fund financial statements. Accordingly, due to the omission of government-wide financial statements and related disclosures, including a management’s discussion and analysis, these financial statements do not constitute a complete presentation of the financial position of the Sheriff as of September 30, 2014 and the changes in its financial position and its cash flows, where applicable, for the year then ended, in conformity with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments, but otherwise constitute financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
As a result of the budgetary oversight by the Board and the financial dependency on the Board, the financial activities of the Sheriff are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation
Transfers are provided by appropriations from the Board pursuant to law. Estimated receipts and budgeted fund balances must equal appropriations. The Sheriff is required to refund to the Board all excess appropriations annually; therefore, no unappropriated general fund balance is carried forward.
The fund financial statements report detailed information about the Sheriff. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Sheriff considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end with the exception of grants, which have a period of availability of one year. Grants are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements have been met. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Governmental Funds (continued)
Substantially all of the Sheriff’s funding is appropriated by the Board. In applying the susceptible to accrual concept to intergovernmental revenue, there are essentially two types of revenue. In one, money must be expended on the specific purpose or project before any amounts will be paid to the Sheriff; therefore, revenue is recognized based upon the expenditures incurred. In the other, money is virtually unrestricted and is revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt, or earlier, if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met.
Other revenue is recognized as earned and becomes measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period.
Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as another financing use in the accompanying financial statements.
Capital outlays expended in governmental fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Sheriff.
The Sheriff has three major governmental funds:
General Fund – The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Sheriff and includes all transactions which are not accounted for in another fund.
Grant Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of federal and state grant revenues that are legally restricted to specified purposes.
Prisoner Welfare Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of inmate related services and is legally restricted to specified purposes, which benefit the inmate population.

Governmental Funds (continued)
The Sheriff also has one non-major fund:
Federal Equitable Sharing Fund – The revenue from this fund is the result of joint investigations with federal agencies that result in the equitable sharing of the net proceeds of the forfeiture.
Fund balances reported in these funds are to be used for the specified purpose of the respective fund.
Fiduciary Funds
Fiduciary Funds – Agency Funds – These funds are used to account for assets held by the Sheriff as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting.
Proprietary Fund
Internal Service Fund – This fund is used to account for the health and dental insurance services provided to departments and retirees of the Sheriff on a cost-reimbursement basis. Proprietary funds are accounted for using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
Cash Equivalents and Investments
Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents also include amounts deposited in Florida PRIME administered by the State Board of Administration, a 2a-7 like investment pool. Shares of the investment pool are based on the pool’s share price, which approximates fair value. All investments are stated at fair value.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Compensated Absences
All full-time employees of the Sheriff are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick time and up to 500 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours. If the member leaves in good standing they will also receive a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service, not to exceed 1,000 hours. Vacation time and sick leave are included in operating costs when the payments are made to the employees. The Sheriff does not, nor is the Sheriff legally required to, accumulate expendable financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the governmental funds, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements for the County.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Sheriff to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the self-insurance claims payable. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions
Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent.
Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The Sheriff did not have any non-spendable fund balances as of September 30, 2014.

Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions (continued)
Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Sheriff’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Sheriff’s fund balances for the grant special revenue fund, prisoner welfare fund and federal equitable sharing fund fall into this category.
Fund balances maintained in the Grant Special Revenue Fund, Prisoner Welfare Fund and the Federal Equitable Sharing Fund are constrained for specific purposes that are externally imposed by grantors, laws, or regulations or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation, and are reports as restricted fund balances.
2. Budgetary Process
Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Sheriff’s annual budget. The Sheriff prepares a budget for the general fund and submits it to the Board for approval. The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Any subsequent amendments to the budget must be approved by the Board. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Any subsequent amendments to the budget must be approved by the Board.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within the major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Sheriff.
The Sheriff does not budget for the grant special revenue fund as it is funded by federal and state grants and is governed by those documents. Additionally, the prisoner welfare and federal equitable sharing funds do not have legally adopted budgets.
The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.

Custodial Credit Risk
At September 30, 2014, the Sheriff’s demand deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the government entity for the loss.
The investments in the Internal Service Fund are part of the Florida Sheriffs Multiple Employers Trust (FSMET) and are administered by Hunt Insurance Group/Willis Pooling Practice. FMSET’s policy required execution of a third-party custodial safekeeping agreement for purchased securities and collateral, and requires that securities be held in the Sheriff’s name.

3. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments (continued)
Credit Risk
The Sheriff’s policy is to follow the guidance in Sections 218.415 and 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. The Sheriff’s Investment Policy authorizes investments in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund), or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act, as provided in s. 163.01, F.S.; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in qualified public depositories, as defined in s. 280.02, F.S.; and direct obligations of the US Treasury.
Additionally, Florida Statutes allow local governments to place public funds with institutions that participate in a collateral pool under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act. The pool is administered by the state treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost.
Florida PRIME (the Pool) is administered by the State Board of Administration. During the fiscal year there were two separate pools. Pool A (Florida PRIME) consisted of money market appropriate assets, and Pool B (Fund B Surplus Trust Fund) consisted of assets that pay more slowly than expected, and/or have significant credit and liquidity risk. At September 30, 2014, the Sheriff had $739,414 invested in the Pool, all of which was invested in Florida Prime. Florida Prime is rated “AAAm” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. In September 2014, all remaining funds in the Fund B Surplus Funds Trust Fund were transferred to Florida Prime, thereby dissolving the Fund B Surplus Trust Fund.
Interest Rate Risk
The Sheriff has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The Sheriff’s investments are included in the internal service fund which is used to account for the Sheriff’s self-insured health plan. The Florida Sheriff’s Multiple Employer Trust administers the investments for the Sheriff’s self-insured health plan and has an investment policy that allows for the investment of funds that exceed one month’s required funding by more than $100,000. Investments can be made in government securities. The Sheriff’s portfolio managed by the self-insurance trust includes investments in U.S. government instrumentalities, and demand deposits. There are also demand deposits which are not managed by the self-insurance trust, which are available dollars managed by the Sheriff to cover daily operations.
The portion of the Sheriff’s portfolio invested in FSMET is detailed as follows, at September 30, 2014:

4. Capital Assets
Capital assets used by the Sheriff are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Sheriff. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the governmental funds of the Sheriff and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of the County. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Sheriff maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by his office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
The following is a summary of changes in capital assets which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida:
September 30, Deductions/ September 30,2013 Additions Reclassifications 2014

8. Employee Retirement Plan
Substantially all full-time and part-time employees of the Sheriff are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (System), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement.

The System also offers eligible employees participation in an alternative defined contribution plan (Investment Plan). The Sheriff, certified deputies and eligible civilian deputy positions participate in the Special Risk Class. The plan is administered by the State of Florida. Contribution rates are established statewide for all participating governmental units. Accordingly, the actuarial information and related disclosures attributable to the Sheriff’s employees are not determinable.
Employees enrolled in the plan prior to July 1, 2011, who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service for regular risk or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management, and 3% for county elected officials for each year of credited services times the final average compensation; and for special risk, after age 55 with 6 years or with 25 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit payable monthly for life, up to 3% for each year of credited service times their final average compensation. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest years of salary earned during credited service. Vested employees may retire before age 62 for regular risk and 55 for special risk and receive retirement benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the Investment Plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. Employees hired on July 1, 2011, or later participating in the Pension Plan who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service for regular risk or with 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management, and 3% for county elected officials of their final average compensation for each year of credited service; for special risk, after age 60 with 8 years or with 30 years of service and age 57 or after 30 years of special risk service regardless of age, or after 33 years of any creditable service, retirement benefits are payable monthly for life. Vested employees may retire before age 65 for regular risk and 60 for special risk and receive retirement benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age.

8. Employee Retirement Plan (continued)
The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code.
The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may participate as of their normal retirement date and have their benefits accumulate in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. The participation in the program does not change conditions of employment. When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment. Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long as the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office. At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan.
The System publishes an annual report that provides ten-year historical trend information about progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. That report may be obtained by writing to the Division of Retirement Research Education and Policy Section, 1317 Winewood Boulevard, Building 8, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1560, or by calling (844) 377-1888, or accessing the division’s Internet site at www.dms.MyFlorida.com.

8. Employee Retirement Plan (continued)
The Sheriff is required to contribute an actuarially determined rate. Rates from October 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 were 19.06% for special risk employees, 6.95% for regular employees, 18.31% for senior management and 12.84% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. The current rates, effective July 1, 2014, are 19.82% for special risk employees, 7.37% for regular employees, 21.14% for senior management and 12.28% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. Effective July 1, 2011, employees hired who are already collecting retirement through the Florida Retirement System are not eligible to receive additional retirement benefits based on their current employment. The Sheriff is still required to contribute for these employees. From October 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 rates were 8.03% for special risk employees, and 3.39% for regular employees. As of July 1, 2014 the rates are 8.77% for special risk and 3.80% for regular risk. As of September 30, 2014, there were eleven special risk employees and three regular risk employees in these categories.
The contribution requirements of the Sheriff are established and may be amended by the State of Florida. The Sheriff’s contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013, and 2012 were $12,494,042, $10,162,432, and $8,817,709, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year.
Effective July 1, 2011 participating employees are required to contribute 3% of eligible wages to the Florida Retirement System. Employees hired on July 1, 2011 or later who are already collecting retirement benefits through the Florida Retirement System, and employees enrolled in DROP are not required to make this contribution.

9. Other Postemployment Benefits
The Sheriff follows the provisions of GASB Statement No. 45 Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, for its other postemployment benefits (OPEB).
Plan Description
The Sheriff administers a single-employer defined benefit plan (OPEB Plan) and can amend the benefit provisions. Prior to 2010, the Sheriff offered an OPEB Plan that subsidized the cost of health care for of retirees who have six years of creditable service with the Sheriff and who receive a monthly retirement benefit from the Florida Retirement System. The Sheriff subsidizes approximately 20% for both single coverage and family coverage for qualifying individuals. In 2010, the subsidy was no longer made available to eligible retirees who chose to continue their health insurance coverage. Approximately 46% of retirees receive the subsidy. Additionally, in accordance with Florida Statute 112.0801, Sheriff’s employees who retire and immediately begin receiving benefits from the FRS have the option of paying premiums to continue in the Sheriff’s health insurance plan at the same group rate as for active employees.
At September 30, 2014, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, the Sheriff’s plan participation consisted of:
OPEB plan participants 1,155 Retirees receiving benefits 97
Funding Policy
The Sheriff has the authority to establish and amend funding policy. The OPEB Plan is currently being funded on a pay as you go basis. For the year ended September 30, 2014, the Sheriff contributed $776,332 to the OPEB Plan.
The annual other postemployment benefit cost for the plan is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed as of October 1, 2014.

Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The annual cost (expense) of the Sheriff’s OPEB Plan is calculated based on the ARC. The following table shows the components of the Sheriff’s annual OPEB Plan cost for the year ended September 30, 2014, the amount actually contributed, and the changes in the net OPEB Plan obligation.
Annual required contribution $ 1,138,923 Interest on net OPEB obligation 40,348 Adjustment to annual required contribution (66,618) Annual OPEB cost (expense) 1,112,653 Contributions made (776,332) Increase in net OPEB obligation (asset) 336,321 Net OPEB obligation – beginning of year 1,344,917 Net OPEB obligation (asset) – end year $ 1,681,238
No trust or agency fund has been established for the plan.
The Sheriff’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for the year ended September 30, 2014 and the preceding years were as follows:
Percentage of Annual Annual OPEB Net OPEB Fiscal Year Ended OPEB Cost Cost Contributed Obligation September 30, 2014 September 30, 2013

Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of the September 30, 2014 actuarial valuation date, the OPEB Plan was 0% funded, the actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $14,207,209, and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $14,207,209. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the OPEB Plan) was approximately $112.9 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 12.6%.

Funded Status and Funding Progress (continued)
The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial liabilities for benefits.
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 contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.
Calculations for financial reporting purposes are based on the benefits provided under terms of the plan as understood by the employer and the plan members in effect at the time of each valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the employer and plan members in the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Consistent with that perspective, actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets.
The actuarial methods are: Actuarial cost method Projected Unit Credit Method Amortization method Closed Amortization period 30 years, Level Dollar Amount
The actuarial assumptions are:
Investment rate of return 3% Discount rate 3% Healthcare cost trend rate 10% for the 2015 fiscal year grading to an
ultimate rate of 5% for the 2025 fiscal year

10. Self-Insurance Program
The Sheriff’s Office participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Self-Insurance Fund (the Fund) for its professional liability insurance. The Fund is managed by representatives of the participating Sheriff offices and provides professional liability insurance to participating agencies. The Fund provides liability insurance coverage subject to the following limitations: $5,000,000 for any one incident, and $10,000,000 for an annual aggregate. The Sheriff also participates in the Fund for workers’ compensation coverage. The Florida Sheriffs Workers’ Compensation Self Insurance Program is a self-insurance program providing coverage for the first $500,000 ($350,000 for policy years 2002/2003 – 2006/2007) of every claim. Reinsurance is purchased by the Program to cover claims exceeding $500,000 (or $350,000 where applicable) up to $10,000,000. Reinsurance coverage up to $20,000,000 any one person on a catastrophic basis is available when applicable. Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third-party carriers in any of the past three years.
Premiums charged to participating Sheriffs are based upon amounts believed by the Fund management to meet the estimated annual payout during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating costs of the program. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the Fund.
The Sheriff has also established a self-funded employee health plan for active employees and retirees. An internal service fund is used to account for the activities of the plan. Excess coverage has been purchased which provides specific claim excess coverage for any one incident exceeding $200,000. The maximum annual individual stop loss payment amount is unlimited. Payments to the internal service fund are based on actuarial estimates of amounts needed to pay prior year and current year claims including claims incurred but not yet reported.
The Sheriff’s Office uses a Third Party Administrator (TPA) to administer and pay claims for the health plan. Meritain Health, Inc. has been the TPA since July 1, 2013.

Litigation
The Sheriff is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of operations. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Sheriff.
Federal and State Grants
Grant funds received by the Sheriff are subject to audit by grantor agencies. Audits of these grants may result in disallowed costs, which may constitute a liability of the Sheriff. In the opinion of management, disallowed costs, if any, would be immaterial to the financial position of the Sheriff.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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 Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff Collier County, Florida 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 each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Sheriff (Sheriff), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Sheriff’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 14, 2015. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Sheriff'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 Sheriff’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Sheriff’s internal control. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses, we identified certain deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. 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. We consider the deficiencies described as 2014-001, 2014-002 and 2014-003 in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses to be material weaknesses.
35
Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff
Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Sheriff'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. Collier County, Florida Sheriff’s Response to Findings The Sheriff’s responses to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The Sheriff’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 this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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.

Current Year Findings and Recommendations
2014-001 General Ledger Recording and Account Reconciliations Criteria: The Sheriff’s office is responsible for accumulating financial data each fiscal year and for compiling a set of financial statements capturing the activity. Account reconciliations are an integral part of that process so that management can quickly identify errors and needed corrections to the general ledger.
Condition: We noted the following during the course of our audit:
• Several of the Sheriff’s funds are accounted for outside of the general ledger system. Internal controls over accounts outside of the system may be easily overridden, making the accounts more susceptible to fraud or error.
• A reconciliation of the allocation of pooled cash balances to the amount held in each fund is not performed monthly.
• Capital asset balances are not reconciled to the total cost on the capital assets subsidiary ledger. Although the net book value of capital assets is reconciled, errors in the total cost of capital assets may not be identified.
• Several revenue items are posted directly to the revenue control accounts. Revenue transactions should be posted to the appropriate revenue accounts rather than the control accounts.
39
Context: Account reconciliations focus on the transactions posted to the account rather than on reconciling the ending balances to the general ledger.
Effect: Fraud or errors may not be detected in a timely manner. Cause: The accounting software used by the Sheriff is out-of-date, making routine reconciliations burdensome. In addition, several funds are accounted for outside of the general ledger system using spreadsheets. Information from the general ledger must be combined with the manual accounting to reconcile the account balances.
Recommendation: We recommend the following procedures to improve the internal control over financial reporting:
• All funds and account balances should be maintained in the general ledger system. • A cash reconciliation that reconciles from the bank balance to the general ledger balance
for all funds should be prepared each month to determine that all cash transactions have been recorded properly and to discover bank errors.
• Capital assets should be reconciled so that the total cost and total accumulated depreciation per the capital assets subsidiary ledgers can be reconciled to the detail reported in the capital assets financial statement disclosure.
• All revenue transactions should be posted to a revenue detail account.
Current Status: The finding was partially cleared. All funds have been entered into the general ledger system; however, in several funds only summary data is posted to the general ledger. The daily transactions are processed outside of the general ledger system. Internal controls over accounts outside of the system may be easily overridden, making the accounts more susceptible to fraud or error. All other recommendations were implemented.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action:
Monthly details will be entered into the general ledger for funds which do not have details recorded in other systems. Inmate Trust transactions are recorded in an accounting system which is part of the inmate commissary process and Flexible Spending is administered by a third party administrator. Because these two funds each have systems which record details of the transactions, monthly totals will continue to be entered into the general ledger for these funds.
40
2014-002 Journal Entries Criteria: Journal entries are posted to the general ledger to record transactions and to make corrections to the account balances.
Condition: Finance staff members prepare journal entries, submit entries to a supervisor for review and approval, and post entries; however, entries are not reviewed against the actual posting in the general ledger by the reviewer or another independent member. There is also a lack of segregation of duties over journal entries in that the same person can prepare an entry and enter it in the system.
A gap in the sequence of journal entries posted during the current fiscal year was not accounted for and an explanation could not be provided by management because there is no system of control over individual entries. We also noted that individuals outside of the finance department have system access to post journal entries.
Context: Thousands of journal entries are posted to the general ledger annually. The majority of the entries are system generated entries; however, there are many manual entries posted on a monthly basis.
Effect: Incorrect or unauthorized journal entries may be posted without detection, resulting in misstated account balances.
Cause: Journal entries are not reviewed after posting to the general ledger. Members outside of the finance department have access to post journal entries.
Recommendation: After a journal entry is posted, the member who approved the entry should verify that the entry was accurately posted in the general ledger. A log of all manual journal entries should be maintained and reconciled to system reports to ensure only approved entries are posted in the general ledger. Access to post journal entries should be removed from individuals outside of the finance department.
Current Status: The finding was partially cleared. Finance members began reconciling reports containing journal entries posted to the accounting system to the journal entries manually keyed. The finance department completed a review of all members’ access to the finance system, and changes were made to ensure members only have access to functions necessary to perform their duties. Access to post journal entries was removed from members who are outside of the finance office functions.
41
During the current year, finance staff members were unable to provide supporting documentation for one journal entry in the sequence of journal entries used. There was no record of the item in the general ledger or other reports.
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action:
Staff at the management level will continue to review manually entered journal entries. Additionally, procedures will be developed to try and detect any gap in the sequence of journal entries based on reporting capabilities of the finance system. It should be noted that all funds are reconciled to the general ledger and these reconciliations would disclose if the one missing journal entry number was posted to the general ledger.
42
2014-003 Information Technology Criteria: Information technology is a key component of the Sheriff’s internal control over financial reporting. Maintaining an accurate and reliable accounting software package is essential to ensure data is captured accurately for financial reporting.
Condition: The Sheriff’s accounting software is no longer supported by a software vendor. One member has responsibility for application changes and updates. Based on our review, we noted there is not another internal employee with the knowledge of the application to make changes.
Additionally, an independent review of IT has not been performed to address exposures and risks of the information technology environment. An IT risk assessment should be completed by an independent party to identify potential control weaknesses.
Context: One Sheriff’s Office member is responsible for application updates and changes. A single outside vendor has been identified to provide support in the absence of this member.
Effect: Data may be incorrectly processed or lost if the system is not properly updated and supported. In addition, many accounting processes that are currently performed manually by the finance department staff are integrated into modern accounting systems, creating increased efficiency and effectiveness of the accounting process.
Cause: The accounting software is outdated and no longer supported by the vendor.
Recommendation: The Sheriff should update the accounting software to a system that is vendor supported. Consideration should be given to implementing the SAP system used by the Clerk of Courts to promote consistency among County agencies. Additionally, a succession plan should be created for the IT department to ensure application changes and updates are not vested with a single employee.
Current Status: During 2014 members began the process of assessing software needs and exploring software options. A portion of the cost of the project was budgeted by the Board of County Commissioners in the 2015 Collier County budget.
43
Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: During Fiscal Year 2014, the process began for the implementation of a new finance system. Staff from the IT Division worked with members of the Finance Division to start documenting a process analysis of the different components of the current system. In Fiscal Year 2015, additional steps will be taken to advance this project including the development of a Scope of Work to prepare a Request for Proposal. It is anticipated that this will be a 2-3 year project.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each major fund of the Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the entity’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditors’ Responsibility 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 auditors’ 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.

Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections
Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund of the Supervisor as of September 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and budgetary comparison of its general fund thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, only for that portion of the major funds of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Supervisor. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2014, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated January 21, 2015 on our consideration of the Supervisor’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 included under the heading Independent Auditors’ 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 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 Supervisors’ internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices
Reporting Entity
The Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. Pursuant to Chapter 129, Florida Statutes, the Supervisor of Elections’ budget is submitted to the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board) for approval.
The financial statements presented include the general fund and grant special revenue fund of the Supervisor’s office. The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits.
As a result of the budgetary oversight by the Board and financial dependency on the Board, the financial activities of the Supervisor are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.
Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Supervisor to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Supervisor. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Supervisor, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Supervisor. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.
Transfers are provided by appropriations from the Board pursuant to law. Estimated receipts and budgeted general fund balances must equal appropriations. The Supervisor is required to refund to the Board all excess appropriations annually; therefore, no unappropriated general fund balance is carried forward.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets.
The Supervisor has the following major governmental funds:
General Fund – The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Supervisor, and includes all revenues and expenditures which are not accounted for in another fund.
Grant Special Revenue Fund – The grants fund is used to account for the activities of voter education and poll worker training grants from the State of Florida.
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Supervisor considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.
The appropriations from the Board are the primary source of funds considered to be susceptible to accrual.
Intergovernmental revenues are recognized when eligibility requirements are met and related amounts are available from the grantor.

Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Practices (continued)
Interest income and other revenues are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period.
Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as another financing use in the accompanying financial statements.
Capital outlays expended in general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Supervisor.
Cash Equivalents
Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents in the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund are administered by the State Board of Administration (SBA), a 2a-7 like investment pool. Shares of the investment pool are based on the pool’s share price, which approximates fair value. At September 30, 2014, the Supervisor had no amounts on deposit in the SBA.
Compensated Absences
All full-time employees of the Supervisor are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick time and up to 440 hours of unused vacation leave. Effective October 1, 2007, the vacation leave limit was increased to 480 hours, with Supervisor approval. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation time and sick leave are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to employees. The Supervisor does not, nor is legally required to accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Supervisor, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Supervisor to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions
Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent.
Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The Supervisor did not have any non-spendable fund balances as of September 30, 2014.
Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Supervisor’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Supervisor’s fund balances for the Grant Special Revenue Fund fall into the spendable restricted category.
Fund balances maintained in the Grant Special Revenue Fund are restricted pursuant to specific grant agreements, and have been presented in the fund financial statements in accordance with GASB Statement No. 54.

2. Budgetary Process
Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption and administration of the Supervisor’s annual budget. The Supervisor submits a budget for the general fund to the Board for approval. The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Any subsequent amendments to the Supervisor’s total budget must be approved by the Board.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Supervisor.
The Supervisor does not budget for the grant special revenue fund as it is funded by State grants and is governed by those documents.
The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.
3. Cash and Cash Equivalents
At September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the Supervisor’s cash and cash equivalents was as follows:
Carrying Credit Type Value Rating Cash on hand $ 200 N/A Demand deposits 538,701 N/A Total cash and cash equivalents $ 538,901

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued)
Custodial Credit Risk
At September 30, 2014, the Supervisor’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss.
Credit Risk
The Supervisor’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Supervisor to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost.
Interest Rate Risk
The Supervisor has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets used by the Supervisor are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Supervisor. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the general fund of the Supervisor and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
11
Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2014
4. Capital Assets (continued)
Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Supervisor maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
The following is a summary of changes in capital assets, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida:
October 1, September 30,2013 Additions Deductions 2014
Machinery and equipment 1,115,597$ 89,819$ (28,540)$ 1,176,876$ Less accumulated depreciation (982,302) (56,483) 27,805 (1,010,980)$ Machinery and equipment, net 133,295$ 33,336$ (735)$ 165,896$
5. Long-Term Liabilities
The following is a summary of changes in long-term liabilities, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida:
October 1, September 30, 2013 Increase Retirement 2014 Accrued compensated
absences $ 175,315 $ 98,474 $ 77,684 $ 196,105 Of these liabilities, approximately $86,286 is expected to be paid during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2015, which will be included in the operating costs of the general fund when expended. These long-term liabilities are not reported in the financial statements of the Supervisor since they have not matured.

6. Employee Retirement Plans
Substantially all full-time employees of the Supervisor filling regularly established positions are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (System), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement. The System is a defined benefit plan for all state, and participating county, district school board, community college and university employees (Pension Plan). The System also offers eligible employees participation in an alternative defined contribution plan (Investment Plan). The plan is administered by the State of Florida. Contribution rates are established statewide for all participating governmental units. Accordingly, the actuarial information and related disclosures attributable to the Supervisor’s employees are not determinable.
Employees enrolled in the plan prior to July 1, 2011 who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service, or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management and 3% for county elected officials for each year of credited service times the final average compensation. Employees enrolled on or after July 1, 2011 who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service or 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to the retirement benefits as outlined above. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest fiscal years of salary earned during credited service for those enrolled prior to July 1, 2011 and the eight highest fiscal years of salary for those hired on or after July 1, 2011. Vested employees may retire before age 62 and receive benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the Investment Plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code.
The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may participate as of their normal retirement date and have their benefits accumulate in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. Employees enrolled in DROP prior to July 1, 2011 earn interest on accumulated benefits in the Trust Fund at 6.5%; those enrolling on or after July 1, 2011 earn interest at 1.3%. The participation in the program does not change conditions of employment. When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment. Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long as the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office.

6. Employee Retirement Plans (continued)
At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits, and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan.
The System publishes an annual report that provides ten-year historical trend information about progress made in accumulating sufficient assets to pay benefits when due. This report may be obtained by writing to the Division of Retirement, Research, Education and Policy Section, 1317 Winewood Boulevard, Building 8, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-1560, or by calling (877) 377-1737, or accessing their Internet site at www.dms.MyFlorida.com.
The Supervisor is required to contribute an actuarially determined rate. Rates from October 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014 were 33.03% for county elected officials, 18.31% for senior management, 6.95% for regular employees and 12.84% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. The current rates, effective July 1, 2014, are 43.24% for county elected officials, 21.14% for senior management, 7.37% for regular employees and 12.28% for DROP employees based on covered payroll. In addition, as of July 1, 2011, employee contributions of 3% are required of all Pension Plan and Investment Plan members, except for those in DROP. The contribution requirements of the Supervisor are established and may be amended by the State of Florida. The Supervisor’s employer contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, were $103,864, $76,386, and $63,016, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year.
7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan
The Supervisor follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for postemployment benefits.

7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued)
Plan Description
The Supervisor participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however, additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida.
Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. The Supervisor provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care.
Funding Policy
The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Supervisor had a net OPEB obligation of $9,901 as of September 30, 2014.
The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid for on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2013. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post employment benefit plan as a whole.

9. Risk Management
Collier County, Florida (County) is exposed to various risks of loss including, but not limited to, general liability, health and life, property and casualty, auto and physical damage and workers’ compensation. The County is substantially self-insured and accounts for and finances its risk of uninsured losses through an internal service fund. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the County. The Supervisor participates in the County’s self-insurance program. During the year ended September 30, 2014, the Supervisor was charged $267,015 by the County for participation in the risk management program.
The County retains the first $500,000 per claim for workers’ compensation, and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to statutory limit for each injury or illness. The County also provides coverage for up to $300,000 per occurrence for general liability and auto liability coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. Negligence claims in excess of the statutory limits set in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, which provide for limited sovereign immunity of $200,000/$300,000 per occurrence can only be recovered through an act of the State Legislature. Property claims are subject to a 5% wind deductible and a $50,000 deductible for all other perils. The County retains the first $100,000 per claim/$200,000 per occurrence for public official errors and omissions and crime coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim.

9. Risk Management (continued)
The County is self-insured for health claims covering all of its employees and their eligible dependents. The County retains the first $325,000 per covered member and has purchased outside excess coverage for all claims exceeding this amount. An actuarial valuation is performed each year to estimate the amounts needed to pay prior and future claims and to establish reserves.
10. Contingencies
Grant funds received by the Supervisor are subject to audit by grantor agencies. Audits of these grants may result in disallowed costs, which may constitute a liability of the office of the Supervisor. In the opinion of management, disallowed costs, if any, would not have a significant impact on the financial position of the Supervisor.
11. Transfers
Transfers between funds are for the purpose of providing matching funds to the Supervisor’s grants. No transfers were required for the year ending September 30, 2014.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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
Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections Collier County, Florida 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 each major fund of the Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Supervisor’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 21, 2015. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Supervisor’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 Supervisor’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Supervisor’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 was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
18
Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections
Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Supervisor’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. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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 AUDITORS’ REPORT Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector Collier County, Florida
Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Tax Collector (Tax Collector), as of and for the years ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Tax Collector’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits 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.

Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector
Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Tax Collector as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the respective changes in financial position for the years then ended and the budgetary comparison for the general fund thereof for the year ended September 30, 2014, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Tax Collector. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statement is not affected by this missing information.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report on our consideration of the Tax Collector'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 included under the heading Independent Auditors’ 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 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 Tax Collector’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Reporting Entity
The Tax Collector is an elected official of the County, pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Florida, Article VIII, Section 1(d). The Tax Collector is part of the primary government of the County. Although the Florida Department of Revenue approves the Tax Collector’s operating budget, the Tax Collector is responsible for the administration and the operation of the Tax Collector’s office. Upon approval, the operating budget is provided to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Board). The Tax Collector’s financial statements include only the funds of the Tax Collector’s office. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Tax Collector is considered to be financially accountable.
Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation
These financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Tax Collector to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Tax Collector. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Tax Collector, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Tax Collector. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Tax Collector’s only governmental fund is the general fund. The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Tax Collector and includes all transactions not accounted for in another fund.
The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Tax Collector considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.
Interest income and other revenue are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period.
Substantially all of the Tax Collector’s revenue is received from taxing authorities. These monies are virtually unrestricted and are revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt; earlier if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met.
Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues exceed annual expenditures be remitted to each governmental agency or the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized.
Capital outlays expended in the general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Tax Collector.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Fiduciary Funds
Agency funds – Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held by the Tax Collector in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting.
Refund of “Excess Fees”
Florida Statutes further provide that the excess of revenues over expenditures held by the Tax Collector be distributed to each governmental agency or the Board in the same proportion as the fees paid by each governmental agency bear to total fee revenues. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as either an expenditure or other financing use-transfer out, respectively, in the accompanying financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Compensated Absences
All full-time employees of the Tax Collector are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 240 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation and sick leave payments are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to the employees. The Tax Collector does not, nor is legally required to, accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Tax Collector, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.

Property Taxes
Property taxes in Collier County are levied by the Board and other taxing authorities. The millage levies are determined on the basis of estimates of revenue needs and the total taxable valuations within the jurisdiction of the Board and other taxing authorities. No aggregate ad valorem tax millage in excess of 10 mills on the dollar can be levied by the Board against property in the County as specified in Florida Statutes Section 200.071.
Each year the total taxable property valuation is established by the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser, and the list of property assessments is submitted to the State Department of Revenue for approval. Taxes, assessed as of January 1 of each year, are due and payable on November 1 of each year or as soon thereafter as the assessment roll is opened for collection. Pursuant to Florida law, all owners of property have the responsibility of ascertaining the amount due and paying it before April 1 of the year following the year in which the tax was assessed.
Chapter 197, Florida Statutes, governs property tax collections as follows:
Current Taxes
All property taxes become due and payable on November 1, and are delinquent on April 1 of the following year. Discounts are allowed for early payment of 4% in November; 3% in December; 2% in January; and 1% for payment in February.
Unpaid Taxes – Sale of Tax Certificates
The Tax Collector advertises, as required by Florida Statutes, and sells tax certificates on all real property for unpaid taxes. The taxes assessed on the property are struck off the tax roll to the purchaser of the tax certificate. Certificates not sold are struck off to the County. The Tax Collector must receive payment before the certificates are delivered. Any person owning land upon which a tax certificate has been sold may redeem the tax certificate by paying the Tax Collector the face amount of the tax certificate plus interest and other costs.
Tax Deeds
Two years after the purchase of a tax certificate the owner may file an application for tax deed sale. The County, as a certificate owner, exercises similar procedures. Tax deeds are issued to the highest bidder for the property which is sold at public auction. The Clerk of the Circuit Court administers these sales.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Use of Estimates
The preparation of these financial statements requires management of the Tax Collector to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Budgetary Process
Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Tax Collector’s annual budget. The Tax Collector submits a budget for the general fund to the Florida Department of Revenue for approval. A copy of the approved budget is provided to the Board. Any subsequent amendments to the Tax Collector’s total budget must be approved by the Florida Department of Revenue. The budget for the general fund is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures.
Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budget control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Tax Collector.
The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.
There is a difference between the budgetary basis of accounting and GAAP in the treatment of excess fee distributions to entities outside of the County’s reporting entity. On a budgetary basis, distributions of excess fees through this fund are reported as other financing uses. On a GAAP basis, these distributions are reported as expenditures because there is a reduction in the financial resources of the County.

3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued)
Credit Risk
The Tax Collector’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Tax Collector to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost.
Interest Rate Risk
The Tax Collector has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets used by the Tax Collector are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Tax Collector.

6. Employee Retirement Plans
Substantially all full-time employees of the Tax Collector are eligible to participate in the State of Florida Retirement System (System), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit plan administered by the State of Florida, Division of Retirement. The System is a defined benefit plan for all state, and participating county, district school board, community college and university employees (Pension Plan). The System also offers eligible employees participation in an alternative defined contribution plan (Investment Plan). The Tax Collector participates in the Elected State Officers’ Class. The plan is administered by the State of Florida. Contribution rates are established statewide for all participating governmental units. Accordingly, the actuarial information and related disclosures attributable to the Tax Collector’s employees are not determinable.

6. Employee Retirement Plans (continued)
Employees enrolled in the plan prior to July 1, 2011, who retire at or after age 62 with 6 years of credited service, or with 30 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 1.6% for regular employees, 2% for senior management, and 3% for county elected officials for each year of credited service times the final average compensation. Employees enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, who retire at or after age 65 with 8 years of credited service or 33 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to the retirement benefits as outlined above. Final average compensation is the employee’s average of the five highest fiscal years of salary earned during credited service for those enrolled prior to July 1, 2011 and the eight highest fiscal years of salary for those hired on or after July 1, 2011. Vested employees may retire before age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) and receive benefits that are reduced 5% for each year prior to normal retirement age. Employees participating in the Investment Plan are vested after one year of service with no age requirement. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, and Chapter 22B, Florida Administrative Code.
The Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) is a program that provides an alternative method for payment of retirement benefits for a specified and limited period for members of the System, effective July 1, 1998. Under this program, employees may participate as of their normal retirement date and have their benefits accumulate in the Florida Retirement System Trust Fund, earning interest, while continuing to work for a System employer. Employees enrolled in DROP prior to July 1, 2011 earn interest on accumulated benefits in the Trust Fund at 6.5%, those enrolling on or after July 1, 2011 earn interest at 1.3%. The participation in the program does not change conditions of employment. When the DROP period ends, maximum of 60 months, employees must terminate employment. Elected Officials participating in DROP may continue to serve in office without voiding DROP or retirement benefits as long the Elected Official continues in that term of office or successive terms of office. At the time of termination of employment, the employee or Elected Official will receive payment of the accumulated DROP benefits, and begin receiving their monthly retirement benefit (in the same amount determined at retirement, plus annual cost-of-living increases). Investment Plan members are not eligible to participate in the DROP program, but Pension Plan members are eligible to roll their DROP lump sum into the Investment Plan as one of the distribution methods under the Pension Plan.

In addition, as of July 1, 2011, employee contributions of 3% are required of all Pension Plan and Investment Plan members, except for those in DROP.

The Tax Collector’s employer contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2014, 2013 and 2012, were $545,011, $359,211 and $291,878, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year.
7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan
The Tax Collector follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for postemployment benefits.
Plan Description
The Tax Collector participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however, additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida.

7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued)
Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. In addition, the Tax Collector provides a 100% subsidy for retirees between the ages of 55 and 65 with more than 10 years of service and 800 hours of accumulated sick leave to remit at the time of retirement.
Funding Policy
The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Tax Collector’s agency had a net OPEB obligation of $14,077 as of September 30, 2014.
The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2013. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other postemployment benefit plan as a whole.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ 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
Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector Collier County, Florida 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 general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Tax Collector (Tax Collector), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Tax Collector’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 16, 2014.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Tax Collector’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 Tax Collector’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Tax Collector’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 was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
21
Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector
Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Tax Collector’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.
Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result 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.
