Accounting prmciples generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion and analysis and budgetary comparison information on pages 3 through 15 and SO through 51, respectively, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic fmancial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of fmancial 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 mformation 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 fmancial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.

The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the fmancial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directiy 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 information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
ORLEANS PARISH CRIMINAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31.2009
Management's discussion and analysis of the Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriff's Office's (the Office) financial performance provides a narrative overview and analysis of the Office's financial activities for the year ended December 31, 2009. This discussion and analysis focuses on the current year's ending balances, activities and resulting changes in comparison with the prior year's information. The Office's financial performance is discussed and analyzed within the context of the accompanying fmancial stetements and disclosures following this section.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Government-Wide
The assets of &e Office exceeded its liabilities at December 31, 2009 by $62.8 mUiion (presented as "net assets"). Restricted balances are comprised of •flie following: (1) capital assets, net of related debt, of $60 million, (Z) assets for future intergovernmental transfers of $12.5 million, (3) assets restricted for debt service of $25.3 million, (4) assets restricted for capital improvements net of related unexpended debt proceeds of $3.5 million, and (5) assets restricted for elderly victims assistance of $0.7 million. There are no unrestricted net assets on a government-wide basis available for operations but a shortage of $39.3 million.
The Office's net assets at December 31, 2009 increased by $3.5 million, or 6% over December 31, 2008. The increase in net assets was primarily due to the increase in charges for services coupled with expense cost cutting measure.
Fund Level
At December 31, 2009 the Office's governmental funds reported combmed ending fund balances of $58.6, an increase of $7.6 million from the prior year! The General Fund's fimd balance decreased by $3.9 million to a fund balance of $.5 million. The Capital Projects Fund increased by $6.3 million to a fimd balance of $32 miUion. The Debt Service fund balance increased by $5.2 million to a total flmd balance of $25.3 million.
The General Fund's unreserved fund balance decreased from $.7 million to a deficiency of $ 1.3- mtllion.
Capital Assets
The Office contmues with the reconstruction following Katrina devastation and invested $13.8 million in capital additions primarily fimded through FEMA funds.
OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
This Management's Discussion and Analysis document introduces the Office's basic financial statements. The basic financial statements include three parts: (1) government-wide financial statements (accrual basis), (2) fimd financial statements, and (3) notes to the basic financial statements. The Office also includes in this report additional information to supplement the basic financial statements.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Office's annual report mcludes two government-wide financial statements. These government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Office's finances, b a manner similar to a private-sector business with its basis in accrual accounting and elimination or reclassification of activities between funds.
The first of these government-wide statements is the Statement of Net Assets. This statement of position presents information that includes all of the Office's assets and liabilities, with the difference reported as net assets. Over time, increases and decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Office as a whole is improving or deteriorating.

DECEMBER 31.2009
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-continued
The second government-wide statement is the Statement of Activities, which reports how the Office's net assets changed during the current year. All cunent year revenues and expei^es are included regardless of when cash is received or paid. The government-wide fmancial statements present governmental activities of the Office that historically are principally supported by per diem charges to the City of New Orleans, the Louisiana Department of Public Safe^ and Corrections, and federal agencies. The primary purpose of these governmental activities is the custody of inmates. The busmess-type activity is the commissary operations. The government-wide financial statements are presented on pages 16 and 17, Exhibits "A" and "B" of this report
FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Afiind is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The Office like other state and local govemments uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related laws and regulations. Within the basic financial statements, fund financial statements focus on the Office's most significant fiinds rafter than the Office as a whole.
The Office's fiinds are classified into three categories: governmental fimds, proprietary fimds, and fiduciwy fimds as follows:
Governmental fiinds are reported in the fund financial statonents and encompass essentially the same function reported as governmental activities in the government-wide fmancial statements. However, the focus is on the near-term and may be usefiil in the evaluation of a government's near-term financing requirements. The focus is on mflows and outflows of spendable resources, as \w!i as, on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the year.
Since the government-wide focus includes the long-term view, comparisons between these two perspectives may provide insight into the long-term impact of short-term financing decisions. Reconciliations between these two prospectives are provided. The reconciliation between the govemmenrnt fimds balance sheet and the statement of net assete is on page 19, Exhibit "D". The reconciliation between the governmental fiinds statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fiind balances, and the statement of activities is on page 22, Exhibit "F'.
The basic governmental fund financial statements are presented on pages 18 and 20-21, Exhibits "C" and "E" of this report.
Proprietary fimds are reported m the fund financial statements and report non-major enteiprise funds (commissary operations) and an internal service fund (a self-insurance fiind). The basic proprietary fund financial statements are presented on pages 23-25, Exhibits "G". "H", and'T' of this report.
Fiduciary funds are reported in tiie fund financial statements and i^ort a defined contribution empioyee pension plan and individual prison inmate agency accounts. Activities from Mucmy fimds are not included in the goverament-wide financial statements because the Office cannot use these assets for its operations. The basic fiduciary fimd financial statements are presented on pages 26 and 27, Exhibits'T' and "K" of this report.
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The accompanying notes to the financial statements provide infomiation essential to a fiill understanding of the govemraent-wide and fiind fmancial statements. The notes to the financial statements begin on page 28 of this report

ORLEANS PARISH CRIMINAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OJNAUDJTED)
DECEMBER 31. 2009
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINA?*^CIAL ANALYSIS-continued
As noted above the net assets of the Office increased by 6% ($62.8 million compared to $59.3 million).
There were several significant changes in net assets. Investment in capital assets net of related debt increased fi-om $46.4 in 2008 to $60.0 million in 2009. Net assets restricted for debt service increased by $5.2 million. Net assets for capital improvements net of une^qiended bond issues increa^d by $1 million. Unrestricted net assete decreased $15.6 million primarily due to operating losses and investment in capital assets.
Approxhnately 96% of the Office's net assets represent ite investment in capital assets (e.g. land, buildings and improvements, maintenance equipment, office fiimiture and equipment, vehicles, and constmction in progress) less any related debt used to acquire diose assets that is still outstanding, liie Office uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens and inmates; consequently, these assets are not available for fiiture spending. AJthough the Office's investment m Its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other resources, since capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these UabiliUes. The investment in net capital assets has increased by $13.6 million as the investment in net assets and repayment of debt continued. The restricted net assets mclude $25.3 million set aside to liquidate debt. The amount set aside to liquidate debt increased by $5.2 million primarily as a result of the cooperafive endeavor agreement with the State of Louisiana, which lent fimds through 2009 to service debt service requirement in 2006 thro i^ 2009. Principal and interest will need to be repaid starting in 2012. The Office continued to collect ad valorem taxes in order to repay the debt in the fiiture. The Office is spreading the collection of ad valorem taxes so there will not be an undue hardship on taxpayers to repay the debt in the fiiture. The Office's most recent arbitrage consultant's opinion is that-there is-ne-aFbitragerebateliability as of January 1,2009 and.there is no January 1,2009 liability for excess investment yield.
Funds held for intergovernmental transfers (fimds for other governmental agencies for their capital improvements) remained ^jproximately $13 million. The Office cannot use these funds.
Uiu"estricted net assets are the part of net assets that can be used to fmance day-to-day operations without constraints established by debt covenants, enabling legislation, or other legal requirements. Unrestdcted net assets decreased $15.6 million and are in a deficit position at December 31,2009 of $39.4 million.
Unrestricted current and odser assets increased by $7.1 million due primaiily to the issue of an additional $10 million of bonds.
Capital assets mcreased $8.8 million as the rebuild of the campus continues following the devastation of Katrina. This consists of $13.8 million of additions net of depreciation of $4.9 million and $0.1 million of disposals.
Current Uabihties have increased $22.8 million as a result of the mcrease in accounts payable of $3.5 million and the inclusion of the Special Community Disaster loan of $18 million as current. OPCSO is in the process of asking for loan forgiveness and In the alternative OPCSO can ask for a 5-year renewal of the loan. At this time the State Bond Commission is not accepting paper woik for renewals.
Long term debt decreased by $ 10.5 million. This included the reclassification of tiie $18 miUion Special Community Disaster loan as current and $5.8 million of normal debt payments offset by the additional issuance of $10 million general obligation bond for capital improvements and $5.2 million of additional Louisiana Cooperative Endeavor Agreement Debt.
The net assets of the Office's business-type activities had no change since the profits fi-om the commissary operations were transferred to die General Fund.

ORLEANS PARISH CRIMINAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED)
DECEMBER 31. 2009
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS-continued
The Office is responsible for one of the core components of the local criminal justice system, which is the operation of the Parish jail system. This responsibility inclildes providing for ihe care, custody, and control of subjects housed in jail facilities, as well as, the processing of all individuals anested within die City of New Orleans. Additionally, the Sheriff serves as the Executive Officer for the Orleans Parish Criminal District Court, which mcludes the execution of all writs, orders, and process^ including warrants and subpoenas, as well as, providing security for the court system. Ancillary fimctions of the Office mclude, but are not limited to: law enforcement patrols, the operation of search and rescue, mounted, K-9, motorcycle, and SWAT units, community service programs, work release programs, and inmate rehabilitation.
Historically, the Office is heavily reliant on housing municipal, state, and federal inmates to support its operations. Pre-Katrina inmate housing revenues provided 83.6% for 2004 of the Office's total revenues from governmental activities. However, for 2009 and 2008 this has decreased to 64% and 58% respectively. Charges for services pre-Katrina for the year ended December 31,2004 were $64.3 million and in 2009 are only $42.6 million. This is a 34% decline in charges for services revenue. TTie prison population was approxunately 6,000 imnates prior to Katrina. Following Katrina, tiiere was a complete evacuation of all inmates. By February 2007 all evacuated inmates and other Orleans Parish mraates were back in the Office's custody. Charges for services increased 17% in 2009 as the average number of prisoners grew from 2,566 average daily population in 2008 to 3,238 average daily population m 2009. Currently the Office is housing approximately 3,500 inmates.
While charges for services have grown FEMA operating and hurricane infrastructure grants have decrea^d. Coital grants from FEMA continue to increase as damaged buildings are rebuilt.or repaired.
Ad valorem tax collections to ftmd debt service decreased 19%. Investment income decreased 62%.
Sfringent cost cutting measures including reduction in overtime and maintenance costs during 2009 resulted in an 11% ($7.6 million) decrease in program expenses for custody of prisoner and other duties. Following Hurricane Katriim, the number of employees decreased from approximately 1,200 enq)Ioyees to less than 400 employees. At December 31, 2009, there were approximately 730 employees which was a reduction of approximately 50 employees from December 31, 2008. A significant amoiuit of overtime due to Hturicane Gustav was also included in 2008. Personnel related expense decreased approxunately $1.6 million in 2009. Contracmal services increased by $6.3 million primarily due to decreased estimates for legal claims, computer consulting and maintenance repairs. Materials and supplies increased by $.5 million. Depreciation continued to increase as buildings are repaired and replaced. Depreciation increased to $4.9 million from the prior years' depreciation of $4.1 million.
Business-type activities are the commissary sales to inmates. Operating income, which is primarily a factor of the number of inmates, increased 34%. The operations of the commissary were outsourced effective August 6,2007.
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE OFFICE'S FUNDS
As noted earlier, the Office uses fimd accounting to ensm^ and demonstrate compliance with finance related legal requirements and to assist in the management of its budgetary operations.
Governmental Funds
The focus of the Office's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows and balances ot spendable resources.

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE OFFICE'S FUNDS-continued
Governmental Funds-continued
As of December 31, 2009 the Office's governmental funds reported combmed ending fimd balances of $58.6 million, an increase of $7.6 million or approximately a 13% increase from the prior year. There is a $1.3 million deficit in unreserved fund balances.
The combined fimd balance is reserved and is not available for new spendu^ because it has afready been conunitted to 1) offset the cost of inventory afready purchased ($1 million), 2) liquidate open purchase orders and signed construction contracts ($.7 million), 3) monies for fiitaire capital projects fbr the Office ($19.5 million) and for other criminal justice agencies ($12.5 million), 4) monies collected to fimd debt ($25.3 million), and 5) monies for the assistance of elderly victims ($.7 million).
Major Governmental Funds
Tlie General Fund is the Office's primary operating fund and largest source of day-to-day service delivery. The (jeneral Fimd's fund balance decreased by $3.9 million.
Despite increases of $7.6 miUion (27%) in charges for the custody of inmates and a cut of $3.7 million (6%) in operating expenses die General Fund had a deficiency of revenues over expenditure of $5.7 million. This deficiency was partially offset by a transfer of $2.6 million of accumulated net assets m tiie Internal Service Fund to the (jeneral Fimd. Federal grants decreased from $14.4 million to $12.2 prunarily due to the end of the Criminal Justice Infi^struclnre Recovery federal grant. There was $1.5 million included in 2008 revenues for this Infrastructure Recovery grant, FEMA funds continue to be received; however, FEMA fimds are primarily for caphal rebuilds and replacement and do not fund current operations.
Total 2009 General Fund expenditures decreased by $6.2 million or 9%. Personnel expenses decreased across all Itmctions as the number of employees decreased and overtime was strictiy monitored. Central Services decreased as the Office has taken a harder stance on settlement of self-msurance claims and the estimate for claims and judgments has been adjusted accordingly. Records and booking costs decreased approxunately $.9 million due partially to. higher costs in 2008 for computer consultii^ for modifications to the billing s> tem arid various costs associated with the opening of the new temporary mtake and processuig center in June 2008. Plant and maintenance costs continued to increase approximately $1 million, partially due to continuing demolition and environmental clean up costs as buildings over 50% damaged by Katrina were demolished. Capital outiay costs increased slightly and some of these costs were paid from the capital projects (bond fmanced) fund instead of FEMA funds, which are included in the General Fund.
The other major governmental fimds are the Capital Projects Fund and the Debt Service Fund. The Capital Projects Fund's fimd balance mcreased by $6.3 million due to the issuance of $10 million of general obligation bonds. The Capital Projects fimd paid $3.3 milhon of die non-FEMA share of the rebuilding efforts. The Debt Service fimd balance increased by $5.2 milUon net of current debt service payments of $6 million. In July 2006, the Office and die State of Louisiana (the State) entered into a Cooperative Endeavor Agreement (the Ag^ment) whereby the State agreed to lend up to $17,256,120 to the Office from State funds on deposit in the Debt Service Assistance Fund, authorized by the Gulf Opportunity Zone Act of 2006 and Act 41 of the First Extraordinary Session of the Louisiana Legislature of 2006. This loan is to assist in payment of debt service requirements for 2006 to 2009 due to disruption of tax bases and revenue streams caused by Hurricanes Katt-ina and Rita. No principal or interest is payable during the initial five year period of the loan. After the expiration of the initial five-year period, ttie loan bears interest at a fixed rate of 4.64 percent. During 2009, $5.2 million was advanced to the Office.

DECEMBER 31.2009
FINANCLVL ANALYSIS OF THE OFFICE'S FUNDS-continued
Proprietary Funds
The Enterprise Fund (corranissary fiind) increased its net operating mcome by 46%. This is attributable primarily to the 36% increase in die daily average population from 2008 to 2009. The profits were transferred to the General Fund.
The Internal Service Fund (self-insurance fimd) is funded by "premiums" paid by the General Fund for expected claims for general liabili^, property and casualty and envfronmental. Clahn liabilities are reevaluated periodically. During 2008, claim payments were $12.6 million primarily on one class action suit. During 2009, only $1,9 million was paid out and current year claims and changes in estimate were $.6 milhon.
BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
The General Fund - When the original 2009 budget was adopted, it was anticipated that the inmate population would increase when die Orleans Parish Prison opened in 2008 and that the federal inmate popuMlon would only decrease slightly. Orleans Parish Prison -was not opened until Februay 2009 and federal mmate stays decreased as they were processed and transferred out more quickly. When the original budget for 2009 was Copied the Office expected to have the vehicle maintenance complex substantially completed and die kitchen warehouse under construction. Construction has not jprogressed as fest as expected. The 2009 budget was amended to reduce custody of prisoner charges by $2.3 million and federal grants by $12.9 million. The cxpenditui-es for the original budget were $94 miUion and were amended to $62.5 million. These reductions in expenditiires correlate to the lower than expected inmate population and die IKS aggressive spending of recovery fiinds.
The Debt Service FUXMI - The 2009 budget was amended to reflect better dian expected collections on ad valorem taxes and increased investment income.
CAPITAL ASSETS AND DEBT ADMINISTRATION
Capital Assets
The Office's investment in capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, as of December 31, 2009, was $74.0 million. Increases to capital assets, primarily fiinded through FEMA, were $13.8 million. Reductions in capital assets were $4.9 million of depreciation and as noted above capital assets were reduced $.1 million for disposals net of accumulated depreciation.
Major capitol events during 2009 include the following: • Completion and opening of the Vehicle Maintenance Facilities • Test pile driving on die new Kitchen Warehouse site • Completion of bid package for ihe Kitchen Warehouse • Improvements and expansion of the Brcrad Street Work Release FaciUties

General obligation bonds
Certificate of indebtedness
Special Community Disaster Loan
Go Zone (Cooperative Endeavor)
Claims and judgments
Accrued stck and aimual leave
Other
The long-term obligations of the Office increased by 12.17%. Significant increases include the 2009 $10 milHon issuance of general obligation bonds for capital improvements. In 2008 an initial SIO million was issued out of the $63,225 million approved by the voters on October 4, 2008. Other significant increases include the draw of $5.3 million of Go Zone fimds under a $17.3 million Cooperative Endeavor Agreement with the State of Louisiana, which is available to fimd debt service. Principal and interest paymente on the Cooperative Agreement start in 2012. During 2009 the Office retired $5.8 million of bonds and notes payable.

In February 2010 the national rating agency, Standard Sc Poor's upgraded the bond rating of the Office's general obligation bonds approved in October 2008 to an "A" rating. This rating is a strong investment grade rating and represent a three-step upgrade fi-om the prior bond rating of BBB.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS AND RATES
Economic Factors
The Metropolitan Report Volume 20, No. 3 published September 2009 by the Division of Busmess and Economic Research University of New Orleans covers the economic activity in the New Orleans meti-opolitan statistical area which includes Jefferson, Orleans, Plaquemmes, St. Bernard, St. Charles, St. John die Baptist and St. Tammany Parishes. The report has die foUowmg highlights. Population fell fi-om 1.3 million people just before Katrina, to a low of about 670,000 in faU 2005. Now the population stands at approximately 1,164,000. The overall recovery of population is 89% of pre-Katrina levels whUe diat of area jobs is 86%. This year, population continues to grow about 2% while the number of jobs feU 0.3% The largest job gains were in local and state government and private educational services. State and local government employment are still only 84% and 80% recovered respectively. The steepest population growth is occuning in Orleans and St. Bernard Parishes showing that recovery is still ongomg in tiiose areas. Orleans population is estimated at 72% of pre Katrina population.

DECEMBER 31.2009
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS AND RATES continued
Economic Factors-continued '
The New Orleans Police Department (NOPD) 2009 yearly crime statistics mdicates fliat between 2008 and 2009 there was a 12.34% decrease in total crimes and a 16.07% decrease in per capita crime rates. However, the Office's records of arrested subjects show 56,973 arrests in 2008 and 63,600 arrests in 2009 which is a 12% mcrease in arrests. Arrests for 2010 have decreased to 2008 levels.
Operating Revenues
Historically, the number of inmates housed at the detention fecilities is die primary iactor which impacts die gross revenue available to provide incarceration services to inmates of the City of New Orleans (City), die Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections (DOC), and the federal government (FEDS). The number of inmates held at the detention feciiities at any given time is affected by the number of arrests made by law enforcement authorities and the length of sentences imposed by the courts. Suice Katrina, another major limiting factor is the number of beds available. The per diem paid to the Office to house fliese prisoners varies by type of mmate; whether it is a City inmate, sentenced or unsentenced, a DOC mmate or an mmate of the FEDS. The per diem rate for die City is based on a consent judgment in federal comt. The per diem rate for DOC inmates is based on state statutes, and the per diem for the FEDS is based on negotiated contracts.
Pre-Katrina, the Office had ^proximately 7,200 beds. The average nimiber of inmates per day in 2004 was approximately 5,700. The average per day for 2005 was approximately 6,000 inmates per day until Hurricane Katrina. At die end of 2009 a UtUe over 3,500 beds were avaUable. In February 2009 the opening of the Old Parish Prison added 800 beds. Additional work release beds were also added in 2009. The Office continues to pursue increases with the FEDS md City. Tlie City per diem has not been raised smce July 1, 2003. The Office is also actively pursuing increases m the ntimber of DOC and FEDS inmates.
Operating Expenditures
The largest operational cost for die Office is personnel. The Office had approximately 1,200 employees pre-Katrina. Following the storm, only a core group returned. As facilities came back on line, the Office brought back its personnel. Currentiy, the Office employs approxinately 730 people. In order to be competitive, and to retain and hire the personnel needed to staff the fecilities, raises and salary adjustments were made in prior years. A new temporary jail to house 500 prisoners is expected to open in December 2010 or in the first quarter of 2011. The Office is ag^:essively monitoring and reducing overtime pay. In order to stafFfiar the new facility and to cut overtime during 2010, the Office will be hiring additional staff. Due to Katrina damage, the Office is using the older less efficiently designed detention facilities and is also operating with a staff with less experience than pre-Katrina. These two conditions have the impact of requiring a higher depu^ to inmate ratio than pre-Katrina.
Total expenditures in the 2010 General Fund budget, excluding the cjqjital outlay, are anticipated to increase sli^tly in total. Personnel costs are budgeted to mcrease but contractual and supplies and materials costs will decrease due to continued stringent cost cutting. Capital outlays are projected to increase to $96,600,000 as the recovery pushes forward. Project managers were engaged in December 2008 and this fl«es up OPCSO personnel to concentrate on operations while professional managers can accelerate the recovery process.
Non Operating Revenues and Expenditures
hi post Katrina there are significant oUier revenues and rapenses, which impact the Office. State and federal grants related to the disaster had a significant impact on 2008 and 2009. FEMA total grants are expected to increase to over $250 million (current obligated fimds exceed $204 million). Cumulative recognized FEMA accrual revenues are approxunately $59.3 million. The additional FEMA revenues will be recognized as buildmgs and other reimbursable assets are repaired or replaced.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS AND RATES-continued
Non Operating Revenues and Expenditures^continued
The 2010 Budget has a $604 tiiousand operating loss, which was to be fijnded throu^ die beginning fitnd balance at December 31, 2009. The audited fimd balance is insufficient to fimd this loss; however, the Office has received a $6 milUon operating loan to be repaid though fiimre revenues. This loan is due June 30,2011. Also the Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office effective May 3, 2010 has been consolidated with the Orleans Parish Civil Sheriffs Office and the combined fimd balance is sufficient to fiind the deficit. A revised budget encompassing the Criminal and Civil operations of the consolidated Office has not yet been adopted.
Significant Factors
As noted above effectiw May 3, 2010, the Criminal and Civil Sheriffs departments of Orleans Parish have been consolidated.
The Office has been struck by several hurricanes in the last four years, with the most recent being Hurricane Gustav on September 1, 2008. Fortunately Hurricane Gustav did not cause serious damage to die Office's faciUties. The Office continues the rebuilding process. Federal legislation now allows the forgiveness of Special Communily Disaster Loans. Specific regulations for the forgiveness have been finalized and the Office has asked for forgiveness. It has not been determined if die Office will be eligible for any forgiveness of its SCDL's: hovrever, the Office is optimistic that substantially all the $18 milHon borrowed will be eligible for foi^iveness. This forgiveness will have no impact on the Fund b^ances but will increase'net assets by whatever is forgiven.
Though much progress has been made since Hurricane Katrina, a substantial amount of work is still to be done. In order for the Office to successfiiUy operate in post-Katrina New Orleans, and to meet the needs of the criminal justice sj^tem, the following critical issues need to be addressed: (1) the restoration of additional detention facilities to increase capacity to hold some of New Orleans most violent and repeat offenders: (2) the restoration of our permanent kitchen production facility to adequately provide for the dietary needs of our increasing offender population; (3) rebuild a modem booking facility that can adequately accommodate the increasing intake volume; (4) increase emphasis and fimding to recruit and retain qualified personnel; (5) purchase much needai equipment for employees so they can complete their missions in a safe and effective manner; and (6) expedite the recovery and remediation process between the City of New Orleans and FEMA so that city-owned facilities under the control of the Office can be refiirbished and placed into operation.
These critical issues are all being addressed but many of them entail major capital projects that will take several years to complete. In the meantime the Office continues to seek alternative fimding and to reduce the operational costs of the Office while continuing to provide the essential detention fecilities, which are an integral part of die criminal justice system of the Parish and are needed to protect the citizens of New Orleans.

ORLEANS PARISH CRIMINAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE RECONCILIATION OF THE GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS STATEMENT OF REVENUES.
EXPENDITURES, AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES DECEMBER 31.2009
Total net changes in fund balances at December 31,2009 per Statement of Revenues, E:q)cnditHrcs and Changes in Fund Balances $ 7,638.636
I , • • ,
The change in net assets reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities is ditterent bewuKc:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of acdvlrics the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as deprecuttion expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays of $13,836,277 exceeded depreciation expense of $4,962,694., g „_- „ _
Net book value of capital assets disposed during the year (100,290)
New debt issues provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but issuing debt increases long-term Habilities in the statement of net assets. (15.286,216)
Repayments of bond principal arc reported as financing uses in governmental funds and thus contribute to the reduction in fund balance. In the statement of net assets, however, repayment of debt decreases long-term liabilities and docs not affect the statement of activities. 5,830,000
Change in revenue accruals - Under modified accmal basis of accounting, revenues are not recognized unless they arc deemed "available" to finance the expenditures of the current period. Accrual basis recognition is not limited to availabili^, so certain revenues not avaUable for spending arc recognized in the current year.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting used in the governmental fimds, expenditures are not recognized for transactions that are not normally paid with expendable available financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, which is presented on the accrual basis, expenses and liabilities are reported regardless of when paid. In addition, interest on long-term debt is not recogriized under the modified accrual basis of accounting until due, rather than as it accrues.
Amortization of bond premium 5,058 Accretion of bond discount (3^00) Accrued interest on bonds (707,757) Accrued annual and sick leave 47,690
(658,209)
Internal service fund is used by the Office to charge the costs of claims, judgements, and legal costs to individual funds. The change in net assets of internal service fund is reported with governmental activities. (2.052.7771

ORLEANS PARISH CRIMINAL SHERIFF'S OFFICE NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31.2009
INTRODUCTION
The Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office (the Office) was created by the Louisiana Constitution of 1921, Article 7, Section 89.
The Cruninal Sheriff is elected by qualified electors every four years. The Criminal Sheriff is in charge of the direction and supervision of all deputy criminal sheriffs who possess all of the powers and authority granted by law to the Sheriff
Among the powers of the Criminal Sheriff are the keeping of the jails, the preservation of the peace and the apprehension of disturbers of the peace and other pubUc offenders. The Criminal Sheriff is the executive officer of die Criminal District Courts and has the authority to serve citations, summons, subpoenas, notices and other process, and to execute writs, mandates, orders, and judgments directed to him by the Crimmal District Cotuts.
On July 28, 1989, die Orleans Parish Law Enforcement District (the District) was created by Act No. 20 of the 1989 Second Extraordinary Session of the Louisiana Legislature, which Act amended Chapter 26 of Title 33 of the Louisiaiia Revised Statutes. The Criminal Sheriff of the Parish of Orleans is the Chief Executive Officer of the District. The purpose of the District is to provide financmg for the Criminal Sheriff through the levying and collection of tax millages. The proceeds of these tax revenues may be used to fund the operations of the Criminal Sheriffs Office or ftind the repayment of debt.
Louisiana Revised Statute 33:1500 states there shall be one sheriff for the parish of Orieans, effective the first Monday in May 2010 following the election. The offices of the Orleans civil and criminal sheriffs will be consolidated and the separate offices shall be abolished. The sheriff shall have and shall exercise all powers, duties, and functions of the civil sheriff and the criminal sheriff of the parish of Orleans.
(1) NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Office's financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is responsible for establishing GAAP for state and local govemments through pronouncements (Statements and interpretations). Govemments are also reqmred to follow the proncfuncements of die Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued through November 30, 1989 (when applicable) that do not conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. Although the Office has the option to ^ply FASB pronoimcements issued after that date to its business-type activities and enterprise funds, die Office has chosen not to do so. The more significant accounting policies established in GAAP and used by the Office are discussed below.
The accompanying basic financial statements have been prepared in conformity with GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements-and Management's Discussion and Analysis-for State and Local Governments, issued in June 1999.

(I) NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -(CONTINUED)
Reporting Entity
ITie Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office is a "primary government'* as defined in GASB pronouncements since the Office is a government, created by State statute that has a separately elected governing body, is legally separate, and is fiscally independent of other state or local govemments. In evaluating how to define the government, for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit in the reporting entity was made by applying criteria set forth in generally accepted accounting principles. The basic, but not the only, criteria for including a potential component unit within the reporting entity is the governing body's ability to exercise oversight responsibihty. The most significant manifestation of this ability is fmancial interdependency. Other manifestations of the ability to exercise oversight responsibility include, but are not limited to, the selection of governing authority, the designation of man^ement, the ability to significantly influence operations, and ^countability for fiscal matters. A second criterion used in evaluating potential component imits is the scope of public service. Application of this criterion involves considering whe&er the activity benefits the government and/or its citizens, or whether the activity is conducted within the geographic boundaries of the government and is generally available to its citiffins. A third criterion used to evaluate potential component units for inclusion or exclusion from the reporting entity is the existence of special financial reladonships, regardless of whether the government is ^ l e to exercise oversight TKponsibilities. Based upon the application of diese criteita, the Orleans Parish Law Enforcement District is included (blended) within the reporting entity.
Basic Financial Statements - Government-Wide Financial Statements (GWFS)
The Office's basic financial statements include both government-wide (reporting the Office ^ a whole) and fiind financial statements (reporting the Office's major funds). Bodi the government-wide and fimd financial statements categorize primary activities as either governmental or business-type. T^e Office's inmate custody and related general administrative services are classified as govemmentel activities. The Office's inmate commissary is classified as a business-t>pe activity.
In the government-wide Statement of Net Assets (Exhibit A), both the governmental and business-type activities columns (a) are presented on a consolidated basis by column, and (b) are reported on a full accrual, economic resource basis, which recognizes all long-term assets and receivables as well as long-term debt and obligations. The Office's net assets are reported in three parts - invested capital assets, net of related debt; resu-icted net assets; and unrestricted net assets. The Office first utilizes reshricted resources to finance qualifying activities.
The government-wide Statement of Activities (Exhibit B) reports bodi gross and net cost of each of the Office's fimctions (custody of inmates) and business-type activities (inmate commissary operations). The fimctions are also supported by general government revenues (mvestment mcome, etc.). The Statement of Activities reduces gross expenses by related program revenues, operating and capital grants. Program revenues must be directly associated with the fimction (custody of prisoners) or a busmess-type activity. Operatmg grants include operating-specific and discretionary grants, while die capital grant column reflects capital-specific grants.

Basic Financial Statements - Government-Wide Financial Statements (GWFSV-fcontinued)
The net costs (by fimction or business-type activity) are normally covered by general revenue (investment income, etc.).
The Office does not allocate indirect costs.
The effect of interfimd transactions has been removed from these statements.
This government-wide focus is more on the sustainability of die Office and the change in the Office's net assets residting fi-om current year's activities.
Separate financial statements are provided for fiduciary fimds; however, they are exchided fttim the government-wide financial statements.
Basic Financial Statements - Fund Financial Statements (FFS)
The financial transactions of the Office are reported in individual funds in the fimd financial statements. Each fimd is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accotmts that comprises its assets, liabiUties, reserves, fimd equity, revenues and expenditures/expenses. The various fimds are reported by generic classification whhin the financial statements.
The following fund types are used by the Office;
Govermnental Funds:
The focus of the governmental fimds* measurement (in the fimd statements) is upon determination of financial position and changes m financial position (sources, uses, and balances of financial resources) rather ttian net income. The following is a description of the major governmental funds of the Office;
General Fund
The General Fund is the primary operating fimd of the Office and it accounts for all financial resources, except those required to be accounted for in other fimds. The General Fund is available for any purpose provided it is expended or transferred in accordance with state and federal laws and according to Office policy.
Capital Projects Fund
The Capital Projects Fund is used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities by the District that are not financed by the General Fund.

Basic Financial Statements - Fund Financial Statements (FFSV-fcontinned)
Debt Service Fund
The Debt Service Fund is used to account for die accumulation of financial resource to be used for the periodic payment of principal and interest on general long'tenn debt including principal, interest, and relied costs of die District and the Office.
Proprietary Funds:
The focus of proprietaiy fund measurement is upon determmatioa of operating income, changes in net assets, financial position, and cash flows. The generally accepted accounting principles applic^Ie are those simibr to businesses in the private sector.
Proprietary fimds distinguish operating revenues and e)q)enses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result firom providing services and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fimd's principal ongoing operations. Internal service fund (self-msurance fund) is used by the Office to account for financing of goods or services provuied by one department to other departments of the Office on a cost-reinJ)ursement basis.
The following is a description of the proprietary fimds of the Office:
Enterprise Funds
Enterprise funds are required to be used to account for activities for which a fee is charged to external users for goods or services and Uie activity (a) is financed with debt ttiat is solely secured by a pledge of net revenues, (b) has third party requirements that die cost of providing services, including capital costs, be recovered with fees and charges, or (c) establishes fees and charges based upon a pricing policy designed to recover similar costs.
Internal Service Funds
These funds are used to account for the financing of goods and services provided by an activity to other departments, funds or component units of the Office on a cost-reimbursement basis. Operating expenses of the internal service fimds mclude the costs of claims and judgments, related administrative expenses, and premiums for comrnercial policies. All revenues and expenses not meetmg this defuiitlon are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
Fiduciary Funds:
Fiduciary fimds are used to report assets held in a trustee or agency capacity for others and therefore are not available to support Office programs. The reporting focus is on net assets and changes in net assets and are reported using accounting principles similar to proprietary fimds.

Basic Financial Statements - Fund Financial Statements (FFS)-(continued)
The following is a description of the fiduciary fimds of the office:
Pension Funds
The pension trust fimd reports resources held in trust and the receipts, investments, and distribution of retirement contributions. The Office's pension trust fiind is lunited to the pension benefits offered through the defined contribution pension plan.
Agency Funds
The agency funds account for assets held by the Office as an agent for inmates and for deposits held pending court action. These funds are custodial in nature (assets equal HabiliUes) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. Consequently, the agency fiinds have no measurement focus, but use the modified accrual basis of accounting.
Basis of Accounting:
Basis of accounting refers to the point at which revenues or expenditures/expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the fmancial statements. It relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the measurement focus applied.
Accrual
Both governmental and business-type activities in the government-wide fmancial statements and the proprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements are presented on the accraal basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when mcurred.
Modified Accrual
•file governmental fimds financial statements are presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when susceptible to accrual; i.e., both measurable and available. "Available" means collectible within die cmrent period or within 60 days after year end. Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related liability is incurred. The exception to this general rule is that principal and mterest on general obligation long-term debt, if any, is recognized when due.
Revenues
Substantially all governmental fund revenues are accrued except for: deferred revenues related to Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) grants which were not collected wifliin 60 days of year end, cash advances on reimbursement grants, and ad valorem taxes not collected within 60 days of year end.

(1) NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -(CONTINUED^
Revenues-(continued)
Investment income in proprietary funds, which fmance current operations, are reported as non-operating revenue.
The District's debt service fimd receives ad valorem/property taxes that have been levied on real property in Orleans Parish, Louisiana. The taxes are collected by the City of New Orleans and then remitted to the District. The taxes are levied by the City of New Orleans on the assessed value for all real propoty m Orleans Parish on January l" of the assessment year based upon the assessed value as of the prior August 15*. Taxes are due and payable on January 1*", the date on which an enforceable lien attaches on the property, and are delinquent on February 1*
The Office is authorized under state law to house inmates for Municipal, State, and Federal agencies. In accordance with contracts between the Office and these agencies, the Office bills die agencies a per diem amount for the housmg of inmates. Other revenues of the Office consist of inmate telephone charges, grants, release processing fees, restitution administration fees, and a portion of baU bond fees.
Expenditures

Other Financing Sources (Uses) ^
Transfers between fimds that are not expected to be repaid (and any otiier financing source/use) are accounted for as other financing sources (uses).
Deferred Revenues
Deferred revenues arise when resources are received by the Office before it has a legal claim to fliem, as when grant monies are received before the incurrence of qualifying expenditiu^s. Deferred revenue is also recorded for FEMA receivables and ad valorem taxes recorded but not received within sbrty days. In subsequent periods, when die Office has a legal claim to the resources, the liability for deferred revenue is removed from the combined balance sheet and the revenue is recognized.
Budeets
The Office is required by state law to adopt annual budgets for the General Fund and Debt Service Fund. Each budget is presented on the modified accrual basis of accounting that is consistent with generally accepted accoimting principles.

Donated assets are recorded as capital assets at their estimated fau- market value at the date of donation. The Office maintains a threshold level of $5,000 or more for capitalizing capital assets.
Capital assets are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets, and depreciation is recorded in the Statement of Activities. Since surplus assets are sold for an immaterial amount when declared as no longer needed for public purposes, no salvage value is taken Into consideration for depreciation purposes. All capital assets, other than land, are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following usefid lives:
Estimated Description Lives
Buildings and improvements 40 years Maintenance equipment 7 years Office furniture and equipment 5 years Vehicles 5 years
Accrued Annual and Sick Leave

The Orieans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office manages its risks internally and sete aside assets for claim settiements in its internal service fund, die Self Insurance Fund. The fiind services claims for various risks of loss to which the Office is exposed, including general liabiUty. property and casualty, and environmental. The Office has limited commercial msurance on some heavy equipment and buses. The Office also has physical damage policies for selected vehicles. The Office has some flood and property policies. The City of New Orleans provides workmen's compensation coverage.
Self Insurance Fund liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and tiie amount of tiiat loss can be reasondsly estimated. Claims liabilities depend on such complex fectors as inflation, changes in legal doctrines, and damage awards. Claims liabilities are reevaluated periodically to take into consideration recentiy setded claims, the frequency of claims, and otiier economic and social factors. The estimate for claims liability mcludes an esthnate for incurred but not reported (IBNR) liabihties and also includes amounts for selected incremental claun adjustment expenses related to specific claims and other claim adjustment expenses regardless of whetiier allocated to specific claims. Attorney fees are recorded as incurred and are not included in tiie liability. Estimated recoveries, for example, from salvage or subrogation,'are anotiier component of tiie claims liability estimate.

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
Tlie Honorable Mariin N. Gusman Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office:
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the busiuess-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office (the Office) as of and for tiie year ended December 31, 2009, which collectively comprise the Office's basic fmancial statements and have issued oiu" report thereon dated June 11, 2010. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in tlie 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.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
III plaiming and perfonuing our audit, we considered the Office's internal conh-ol over financial reporting as a basis for designmg our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on tlie effectiveness of the Office's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of tlie OiTice's internal control over financial reporting.
A deficiency in internal control exists when tlic design or operation of a control does not allow maKagement or employees, in the normal course of perfonning their assigned functions, to prevent, or defect and con-ect misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that tliere is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of tlie entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and coirected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting 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 significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.

Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whetiier the Office's financial statements are fi^e of material misstatement, we perfonned tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, noncompliance witli which could have a du-ect and material effect on the determination of fmancial 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 matteis that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
This report is ijitended solely for the infonnation and use of tlie Office, the Office's management; federal, state and city awarding agencies; and the Louisiana Legislative Auditor and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other tiian these specified parties.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WIIH REQUIREMENTS APPUCABLE TO EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133
Tlie Honorable Mariin N. Gusman Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriffs Office:
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of the Orleans Parish Criminal Sheriff's Office (the Office) with the fypes of compliance requirements described in tiie V. S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement tliat are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2009. The Office's major federal program is identified in the summary of auditors' results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its major federal programs is tlie responsibili^ of the Office's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Office's compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; tlie standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance witli the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit mcludes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Office's compliance with those requirements and perfonning such other procedures as we considered necessary in the cucumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the Office's compliance with tliose requirements.
In our opinion, the Office complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to its major federal progi'am for the year ended December 31,2009.
Internal Control Over Compliance
The management of the Office is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and perfonning our audit, we considered tlie Office's internal control over

compliance with requirements tliat could have a direct and mateiial effect on a major federal pro^m in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of intemai control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Office's internal control over compliance.
A control deficiency in the Office's intemai control over compliance exists when the desigji or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program oil a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Office's ability to administer a federal program such that there is more than a remote likelihood that noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by tlie Office's intemai control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combinafion of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented or detected by die Office's intemai control
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited puiposc described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in intemai control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
This report is intended solely for tlie information and use of the Office, the Office's management; federal, state and city awarding agencies; and the Louisiana Legislative Auditor and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. However, under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by the Legislative Auditor as a pubhc document.
