INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Honorable Guy Cormier, Parish President and the Members of the St. Martin Parish Council

St. Martmville, Louisiana

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the St. Martin Parish Government(Parish Government) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the basic financial statements of the Parish Government's primary government as listed 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 an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted m the United States of America, and the standards applicable to financial audits contained m Government A u d i t i n g S t a n d a r d s , issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement.

An audit 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 m order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the

Page 6: St. Martin Parish Governmentapp1.lla.state.la.us/PublicReports.nsf/D28D05433EBF8C9F...HEGINA B MARArST, CPA * AMERICAN wsim/TE OF - A PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING CORPORATION CERTIFIED

entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and 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 opinion.

Basis for Adverse Opinion

The financial statements referred to above include only the primary government of the St. Martin Parish Government, which consists of all funds, organizations, institutions, agencies, departments, and offices that comprise the Parish Government's legal entity The financial statements do not include financial data for all of the Parish Government's legally separate component units. Accounting principles generally accepted m the United States of America require the financial data for the Parish Government's legally separate component units to be reported with the financial data of the St. Martin Parish Government's primary government The amount by which this departure would affect the assets, liabilities, net position, revenue, and expenses of the government-wide financial statements has not been determined.

Adverse Opinion

In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter discussed m the "Basis for Adverse Opinion" paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly the financial position of the reporting entity of the St. Martin Parish Government as of December 31, 2012 or the changes in its financial position for the year then ended.

In addition, m our opinion, because the omission of the financial statements of the remaining component units results in an incomplete presentation, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted m the United States of America, the financial position of the aggregate discretely presented component units of the St Martin Parish Policy Jury, as of December 31, 2012, or the changes in financial position thereof for the year then ended.

Unmodified Opinion

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, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Parish's primary government, as of December 31, 2012, and the respective changes m financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended m conformity with accounting principles generally accepted m the United States of America.

Emphasis of Matter

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the St. Martin Parish Government adopted the provisions for GASB Statement No, 63, Reporting Deferred Outflows, Deferred Inf lows, and Net Pos i t i on , in 2012 Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

Other Matters

Reguired Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the budgetary comparison information on pages 39 through 46 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, which 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 budgetary comparison information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted m 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 as su rance .

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 m an app rop r i a t e operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information.

Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the St. Martin Parish Government's basic financial statements. The accompanying information listed as other supplementary information in the table of contents, including the schedule of expenditures of federal awards as required by U. S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of S t a t e s , Local Governments, and Non-profit Organiza t ions , are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements of the St. Martin Parish Government. The other supplementary information, as listed m the table of contents, and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards 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. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied m the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial

Page 8: St. Martin Parish Governmentapp1.lla.state.la.us/PublicReports.nsf/D28D05433EBF8C9F...HEGINA B MARArST, CPA * AMERICAN wsim/TE OF - A PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING CORPORATION CERTIFIED

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 m all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

Other Reporting Required by Govemment Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Audi t ing Standards, we have also issued our report dated September 6, 2013 on our consideration of the St. Martin Parish Government's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grant agreements, and other matters. The purpose of that report i s 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 the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report IS an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Audit ing Standards m considering the St Martin Parish Government's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

ST MARTIN PARISH GOVERNMENT

ST MARTINVILLE LOUSIANA

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements As of and for the Year Ended December 31, 2012

NOTE 1-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The St Martin Parish Government is the governing authority for St Martin Parish and IS a political subdivision of the State of Louisiana. The Parish Government is comprised of a parish president and a parish council made up of nine (9) members who represent the various districts withm the parish The parish councilmen serve four-year terms that expire on January 1, 2016.

Louisiana Revised Statute 33 1236 gives the Parish Government various powers in regulating and directing the affairs of the parish and its inhabitants The more notable of those are the power to make regulations for its own government, to regulate the construction and maintenance of roads, bridges, and drainage systems, to regulate the sale of alcoholic beverages, and to provide for the health and welfare of the poor, disadvantaged, and unemployed m the parish. Funding to accomplish these tasks is provided by ad valorem taxes, sales taxes, beer and alcoholic beverage permits, state revenue sharing, and various other state and federal grants

In accomplishing its objectives, the Parish Government also has the authority to create special districts (component units) within the parish The districts perform specialized functions, such as fire protection, library facilities and healthcare facilities Except for the omission of all component units from the financial statements, as more fully described below, the accompanying financial statement of the Parish Government have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles(GAAP) as applied to governmental entities GT^P includes all Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB) pronouncements. The accounting and reporting framework and the more significant accounting policies of the Parish Government are discussed m subsequent subsections of these notes

A REPORTING ENTITY

Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 14, The Repor t ing E n t i t y , established criteria for determining the governmental reporting entity and component units that should be considered part of the St. Martin Parish Government for financial reporting purposes Under the provisions of this statement, the Parish Government is considered a primary government, since it is a special purpose government that has a separately elected governing body, is legally separate, and is fiscally independent of other state or local governments As used in GASB Statement No 14, fiscally independent means that the Parish Government may, without the approval or consent of another governmental entity, determine or modify its own budget, levy its own taxes or set rates or charges, and issue bonded debt The Parish Government has oversight of other component units that are required under GASB Statement No 14 to be either blended into the Parish Government's basic financial statements or discretely presented in a separate column in the government-wide financial statements

The Parish government has chosen to issue financial statements of the primary Government(Parish Government) only, therefore, none of its component units are included in the accompanying statements.

Such accounting and reporting procedures also conform to the requirements of Louisiana Revised Statute 24 517 and to the guidance set forth m the industry audit guide. Audits of State and Local Governments, issued by the T^erican Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Louisiana Governmental Audit Guide

Considered in the determination of component units of the reporting entity were the St Martin Parish Sheriff, the St Martin Parish Assessor, the St Martin Parish Clerk of Court, the St Martin Parish School Board and the various municipalities m the parish It was determined that these governmental entities are not component

Page 26: St. Martin Parish Governmentapp1.lla.state.la.us/PublicReports.nsf/D28D05433EBF8C9F...HEGINA B MARArST, CPA * AMERICAN wsim/TE OF - A PROFESSIONAL ACCOUNTING CORPORATION CERTIFIED

Notes to Financial Statements

units of the St Martin Parish Government reporting entity because they have separately elected governing bodies, are legally separate and are fiscally independent of the St Martin Parish Government

B MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION

The government-wide financial statements(i e , the statement of net position and the statement of activities) are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the enterprise fund financial statements Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows Property taxes are recognized as revenues m the year for which they are levied Grants and similar Items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. All assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, revenues, expenses, gams and losses are measured and reported using the economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis of accounting

Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due

Property taxes, f r a n c h i s e taxes, l i c e n s e s , and interest a s s o c i a t e d wi th the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized a s revenues of the current fiscal period Only the portion of special assessment receivable due withm the current fiscal period i s considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the government.

C. FUND ACCOUNTING

The accounts of the Parish Government are organized and operated on the basis of funds. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions relating to certain government functions or activities The minimum number of funds maintained by the Parish Government is consistent with legal and managerial requirements

A fund IS an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a separate set of self -balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, reserves, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the restrictions, if any, on the spending activities

The basic financial statements of the St Martin Parish Government include both government-wide (reporting the primary government of the Parish Government as a whole) and fund financial statements (reporting the Parish Government's major funds) Both the government-wide and fund financial statements categorize primary activities as either governmental or business-type The Parish Government's public safety, culture and recreation, public works, and general administrative services are classified as governmental activities The Parish Government also maintains two business-type activity(enterprise) funds

D GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The government wide financial statements include a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities These statements report financial information about the primary government of the Parish In the process of aggregating data for the

Notes to Financial Statements

Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities some amounts reported as interfund activity and balances in the funds were eliminated or reclassified Interfund receivable and payables were eliminated or reclassified Interfund receivables and payables were eliminated to minimize the "grossing up" effect on assets and liabilities withm the governmental activities column. In the Statement Net Position the governmental type activities column (1) is presented on a consolidated basis, and (2) is reported on a full accrual, economic resource basis which recognizes all long-term assets and r e c e i v a b l e s a s well a s long-term debt and obligations The Parish Government's net position is reported in three parts (1)invested in capital assets, net of related debt - consisting of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those a s s e t s ; (2) restricted net position—consisting of net position with constraints placed on the use either by (a) external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or (b) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation, and (3) unrestricted net position-consisting of all other net position that does not meet the definition of "restricted" or "invested in capital assets, net of related debt". The Parish Government first utilizes restricted resources to finance qualifying activities

The Statement of Activities reports the expenses of a given function offset by program revenues, directly connected with the functional program A "function" is an assembly of similar activities and may include portions of a fund or summarize more than one fund to capture the expenses associated with a distinct functional activity Program revenues include (1) charges for services which report fees, fines, and forfeitures, and other charges to users of the Parish Government's services, (2) operating grants and contributions which finance annual operating activities including restricted investment income, and (3) capital grants and contributions which fund the acquisition, construction, or rehabilitation of capital assets and include fees to developers These revenues are subject to externally imposed restrictions to these program uses The net cost by function is normally covered by general revenue(property taxes, sales taxes, intergovernmental revenues, interest income, etc )

The Parish Government reports all direct expenses by function in the Statement of Activities Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a function Depreciation expense is specifically identified by function and is included as a direct expense of each function. The Parish Government does not allocate indirect costs Interest on long-term debt is considered an indirect expense and is reported separately on the Statement of Activities An administrative service fee is charged by the General Fund to the other operating funds to recover the direct costs of General Fund services provided (finance, personnel, purchasing, legal, technology management, etc.). An elimination is made to remove the service fee transactions from the reported revenue and expense

This government-wide focus is more on the sustamability of the Parish Government as an entity and the change in the Parish Government's net position resulting from the current year's activities

E. FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The fund financial statements provide information about the Parish Government's funds The emphasis of fund financial statements is on major individual governmental funds, each reported m a separate column All remaining governmental funds are aggregated and reported as non-major funds

The Parish Government reports the following major governmental funds

General Fund - used to account fo r a l l financial resources traditionally associated with governments that are not required to be accounted for in another fund

Notes to Financial Statements

G SHORT-TERM INTERFUND RECEIVABLES/PAYABLES

During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods and services rendered These receivables and payables are classified as due from other funds or due to other funds on the governmental funds balance sheet These amounts are eliminated in the government-wide financial statements.

H. CAPITAL ASSETS A2^ DEPRECIATICN

The accounting treatment over property, plant, and equipment (fixed assets) depends on whether the assets are reported in the government-wide or fund financial statements

Government-wide financial statements-

The Parish Government's property, equipment, and infrastructure with useful lives of more than one year are stated at historical costs and comprehensively reported in the government-wide financial statements as capital assets The Parish Government maintains a threshold level of $5,000 or more for capitalizing capital assets. Donated assets are stated at fair value at the date donated The Parish Government has no donated assets The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the asset value or materially extend useful lives are not capitalized Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method When capital assets are disposed, the cost and applicable accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts, and the resulting gain or loss is recorded in operations. Estimated useful lives, in years, for depreciable assets are as follows

Description Estimated Lives Roads, bridges, and infrastructure 20-50 years Land improvements 20-30 years Buildings and building improvements 10-40 years Furniture and fixtures 5-15 years Vehicles 5-15 years Equipment 5-15 years

Fund financial statements-

In the fund financial statements, fixed a s s e t s used m governmental fund operations are accounted for as capital outlay expenditure of the government fund upon acquisition.

I COMPENSATED ABSENCES

Employees of the parish government accrue unlimited amounts of annual and sick leave at varying rates according to years of service Upon termination or resignation, unused annual leave is paid to the employee at the employee's current rate of pay, however, all unused sick leave is forfeited Upon retirement, all unused sick leave (per formula of the Parochial Employees Retirement System) is used in the retirement benefit computation as earned service

In the government-wide financial statements, the Parish Government accrues accumulated unpaid annual and sick leave and associated related costs when earned (or estimated to be earned) by the employee. At December 31, 2012, employees of the Parish Government have accumulated and vested $423,635 of compensated absence benefits, which are recorded as a liability in the government-wide financial statements No compensated absences liability is recorded m the governmental fund f i n a n c i a l statements.

J. DEFERRED REVENUES

Deferred revenues arise when potential revenues do not meet both the "measurable" and "available" criteria for recognition m the current period In subsequent periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met the liability for deferred revenues is removed and the revenues are recognized Deferred revenues reflected m the current

Notes to Financial Statements

financial statements consist principally of capital outlay grantor funding reimbursements received m subsequent fiscal period which do not meet the "availability" criteria

K LONG TERM OBLIGATIONS

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term of the related debt.

In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period The face amount of the debt issued is reported as other financing sources Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures

L EQUITY CLASSIFICATIONS

Government-wide financial statements-

The Parish Government's net position is reported m three parts (l)net investment in capital assets, (2)restricted net position, and (3)unrestricted net position Net position IS reported as restricted when constraints placed on net position use are either, l)externally imposed by creditors(such as debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or 2)imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation

Fund financial statements-Beginning with fiscal year 2011, The Parish Government implemented GASB Statement No 54, Fund Balance Repo r t i ng and Governmental Fund Type Definition{GASB 54) This statement more clearly defined fund balance categories to make the nature and extent of the constraints placed on a government's fund balance more transparent. The following classifications describe the relative strength of the spending constraints placed on the purposes for which resources can be used

1 l^onspendable-such as fund balance associated with inventories, prepaids, long-term loans and notes receivable, and for property held for resale(unless the proceeds are restricted, committed, or assigned),

2. /?estricted-includes fund balance amounts that can only be spent for specific purposes stipulated by constitution, external resource providers, or through enabling legislation,

3 Commit ted-includes fund balance amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes determined by a formal action of the St Martin Parish Council(the Parish Government's highest level of decision-making authority),

4 Assigned-consists of fund balance amounts that are intended to be used by the government for specific purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Intent can be expressed by the Parish Government or by an official or body to which the Parish Government delegates the authority,

5 (/jiassigned-includes fund balance amounts that are available for any purpose and are only reported m the general fund

When an expenditure is incurred for the purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the Parish Government considers restricted funds to have been spent first When an expenditure is incurred for which committed,

Notes to Financial Statements

assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the Parish Government considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the Parish Government has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions.

The calculation of fund balance amounts begins with the determination of nonspendable fund balances Then, restricted fund balances for specific purposes are determined(not including nonspendable amounts) Then, any remaining fund balance amounts for the non-general funds to have negative unassigned fund balance when nonspendable amounts plus the restricted fund balances for specific purposes amounts exceed the positive fund balance for the non-general fund

M. INTERFUND TRANSFERS

Permanent reallocation of resources between funds of the primary government are classified as interfund transfers For purposes of the statement of activities, all interfund transfers between individual governmental funds have been eliminated

N. ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require 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, expenditures, and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 9-RETlREMENT SYSTEMS

Plan Desctiption Substantially all employees of the Parish Government are members of the Parochial Employees' Retirement System of Louisiana (the "System"), a cost -sharing, multiple-employer public employee retirement system (PERS), controlled and administered by a separate Board of Trustees The System is composed of two distinct plans. Plan A and Plan B, with separate assets and benefit provisions. Employees of the Parish Government are members of Plan A

All permanent employees working at least 28 hours per week who are paid wholly or m part by the Parish Government and all elected parish officials are eligible to participate in the System Under Plan A, employees who retire at or after age 60 with at least 10 years of creditable service, at or after age 55 with at least 25 years of creditable service, or at any age with at least 30 years of creditable service are entitled to a retirement benefit, payable monthly for life, equal to 3% of their final compensation multiplied by the employee's years of creditable service However, for those employees who were members of the supplemental plan only prior to January 1, 1980, the benefit is equal to 1% of final compensation, plus $24, for each year of service credited prior to January 1, 1980, and 3% of final compensation for each year of service credited after January 1, 1980 Final compensation is the employee's monthly earnings during the 36 consecutive or joined months that produce the highest average Employees who terminate with at least the amount of creditable service stated previously and who do not withdraw their employee contributions, may retire at the ages specified previously and receive the benefit accrued to their date of termination. The System also provides death and disability benefits. Benefits are established by State statute

The Parochial Employees' Retirement System issues a publicly available report that includes financial statements and required supplemental information That report may be obtained by writing to Parochial Employees' Retirement System, Post Office Box 14619, Baton Rouge, Louisiana 70898-4619

Funding Policy Contributions to the System include ^ to 1% of the amount of the tax shown to be collectible by the tax roll of St Martin Parish. These tax dollars are divided between Plans A and B, based proportionately on the salaries of the active members of each Plan.

Under Plan A, members are required by State statute to contribute 9 5% of their annual covered salary and the Parish Government is required to contribute at an actuarially determined rate The current employer contribution rate is 15 75% of annual covered payroll The contribution requirements of Plan members and the Parish Government are

Notes to Financial Statements

established and may be amended by the System's Board of Trustees The Parish Government's contributions to the System under Plan A for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, were approximately $434,113, $417,396, and $369,723, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year

Note 10-Other Post-Employment Benefits

Plan Description The St Martin Parish Government contributes to a single-employer defined benefit healthcare plan("the Retiree Health Plan") The plan covers health care insurance for eligible retirees for life through the Parish's group health insurance plan, which covers both active and retired members To receive benefits, employees must have at least 10 years of service Benefit provisions are established by the St Martin Parish Government The Retiree Health Plan does not issue a publicly available financial report

Effective with the Year ending December 31, 2009, the St Martin Parish Government implemented Government Accounting Standards Board Statement Number 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post Employment Benef i t s Other Than Pensions (GASB 45) The statement has been implemented prospectively Using this method, the beginning other post employment benefit(OPEB) is set at zero and the actuarially determined OPEB liability relative to past service(prior to January 1, 2009) will be amortized and recognized as an expense over thirty years

Funding Policy

The St Martin Parish Government contributes 100% of the cost of current year health c a r e premiums for eligible employees who retire with benefits under the Louisiana Parochial Employees Retirement System For the year ended December 31, 2012, the Parish Government contributed $282,075 to the plan on behalf of retirees

Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation

The Parish Government's annual OPEB cost(expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution(ARC) of the employer The St Martin Parish Government has elected to calculate the ARC and related information using the alternative measurement method permitted by GASB 45 for employers in plans with fewer than 100 total plan members The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal costs each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities(or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years The following table shows the components of the Parish Government's annual OPEB costs for the year, the amount actually contributed to the plan, and the changes in the Parish Government's net OPEB obligation to the retiree health plan

Methods and Assumptions

Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes a r e based on the substantive plan(the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point The methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short -term volatility m actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations The following sirnplifying assumptions were made

M a r i t a l s t a t u s - Marital status of members at the calculation date were assumed to continue throughout retirement

Ketirement age f o r a c t i v e employees ~ Based on the historical retirement age for the covered group, active members were assumed to retire at age 58, or when they are eligible to receive benefits, whichever occurs later

Mortality - Life expectancies were based on mortality tables from the National Center for Health Statistics The 2005 United States Life Tables for Males and for Females, revised March, 2010, were used

Turnover - Non-group-specific-age-based turnover data from GASB Statement 45 were used as the basis for assigning active members a probability of remaining employed until the assumed retirement age and for developing an expected future working lifetime assumption for purposes of allocating to periods the present value of total benefits to be paid

Me^ilthcare c o s t t r e n d r a t e - The expected rate of increase in healthcare insurance premiums was based on a rate of 7% for 2009, 6% for 2010, and 5% for succeeding years

H e a l t h i n s u r a n c e premiums - 2009 age-adjusted health insurance premiums for retirees were used as the basis for calculation of the present value of total benefits to be paid

I n j e i s t j o n r a t e - A long-term inflation assumption of 5 0% was used in projecting future cost and growth rates

P a y r o l l growth r a t e - The expected long-term payroll growth rate was assumed to equal the rate of inflation

Based on the historical and expected returns of the Parish Government's short-term investments, a discount rate of 5 0% was used In addition, a simplified version of the entry age actuarial cost method was used The unfunded actuarial liability is being amortized a s a level percentage of projected payroll on an open basis The remaining amortization period at December 31, 2012 is twenty-six years

NOTE 13-DEFICIT IN INDIVIDUAL FUNDS

The following funds reflect a deficit fund balance at December 31, 2012

Section 8 Housing Vouchers Fund $(271,762) LCDBG Construction Fund $ (209,786) Drug Court Fund (7,434) Capital Outlay Fund (2,816,855) Cecilia Technology Center Fund (26,528) Construction Fund (1,084,070) sales Tax #1 Sinking Fund (36,474) Mosquito Control Fund (71,165) Recreation Dist #1 Construction (68,895)

The deficit fund balances in the Section 8 Housing Vouchers Fund, the Drug Court Fund, and the Cecilia Technology Center Fund are the combined result of delays in funding reimbursements from federal/state program grantors, or shortfalls in funding reimbursements of operational expenditures incurred. In these instances, management has elected to temporarily cover this deficit balance with loans from the general fund As the permanency of these shortfalls is determined, management plans to cover any remaining fund balance deficits by formally transferring amounts from the general fund or the video poker revenue fund to each of these special revenue funds, in an amount sufficient to eliminate the deficit fund balance

The deficit fund balance in the Sales Tax #i Sinking Fund was caused by an Insufficient transfer of appropriated funds from the District #1 Sales Tax Revenue Fund, and will be rectified by management with an appropriate interfund fund transfer to eliminate the deficit fund balance

The deficit fund balances m the Recreation District #1 Construction Fund, the LCDBG Construction Fund, the Capital Outlay Fund, and the Construction Fund are the result of capital outlay grant expenditures for which grantor reimbursements received subsequent to year end were not considered to meet the "availability" criteria necessary for recognition as a current year revenue, and accordingly were booked as "deferred revenues". In subsequent periods, when the "availability" criteria for

Notes to Financial Statements

revenue recognition is met, the liability for deferred revenues will be removed and the revenue recognized Additionally, major construction project fund deficits will be funded by management of the Parish Government through interfund transfers of road district construction fund surpluses and excess unrestricted general and video poker fund surpluses, in order to alleviate fund balance deficits within the capital project funds upon completion of the current ongoing capital improvement program. This will eliminate the existing fund balance deficits within these capital outlay funds.

NOTE 14-RISK MANAGEMENT

The Parish Government is exposed to risks of loss in the areas of health care, workers' compensation, general and auto liability, and property hazards. These risks are handled by purchasing commercial insurance There have been no significant reductions in these insurance coverages during the current fiscal year, nor have settlements exceeded insurance coverage for the current or prior two fiscal years.

NOTE 15-PENDING LITIGATION AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

At December 31, 2012, the Parish Government is involved as a defendant in several lawsuits In the opinion of management and legal counsel for the Parish Government, there is adequate insurance coverage on all cases where monetary damages are sought, and that these suits will not have an adverse material effect on the Parish Government's financial position Due to the uncertain nature of these claims, in the opinion of legal counsel, no accurate estimate of the possible aggregate loss to be born by the parish government is possible. Claims and litigation cost of $40,403 were incurred in the current year, and have been recorded as a current expenditure in the general fund

/founts received or receivable from grantor agencies are subject to audit and adjustment by grantor agencies. Any disallowed claims, including amounts already collected, may constitute a liability of the applicable funds The amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantor cannot be determined at this time although the Parish Government expects such amounts, if any, to be immaterial

NOTE 16-ACCOUNTING CHANGE

The Parish Government's adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB) Statement No. 63 for the year 2012 The statement provides guidance for reporting the financial statement elements of d e f e r r e d outf lows of r e s o u r c e s and d e f e r r e d inf lows of r e s o u r c e s It also reports net position instead of net assets

NOTE 17-NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT

In March, 2012, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board(GASB) approved Statement No 65, "Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities " The statement clarifies certain items that were previously reported as assets and liabilities as deferred outflows of resources or deferred inflows of resources The provisions of GASB No 65 must be implemented by the Parish Government for the year ending December 31, 2013 The effect of implementation on the Parish Government's financial statements has not yet been determined

NOTE 18-SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Parish Government's management has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through September 6, 2013, the date on which the financial statements were available to be issued This evaluation did not reveal any subsequent events that necessitated disclosure or adjustment under generally accepted accounting principles

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S 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

To the Honorable Guy Cormier, Parish President and the Members of the St. Martin Parish Council

St Martinvllle, Louisiana

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 Audi t ing Standards , issued by the Comptroller General of the United States the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the St. Martin Parish Government as of and for the year ended December 31, 2012 and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the St. Martin Parish Government's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated September 6, 2013. Our report on the financial statements disclosed that the financial statements include only the financial activities of the primary government and that the financial activities of other component units that form the reporting entity are not included.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the St. Martin Parish Government's internal control over financial reporting(internal control) to determine the audit procedures chat are appropriate m 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 St Martin Parish Government's internal control Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the St Martin Parish Government's internal control.

A def ic iency m i n t e r n a l con t ro l 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 combination of d e f i c i e n c i e s , m 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 s i g n i f i c a n t de f i c i ency 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 the 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 and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies mn internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item #12/1, that we consider to be a significant deficiency in internal control

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the St Martin Parish Government's financial statements are free of 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 two instances of non-compliance that are required to be reported under Government Audi t ing Standards , and which are described m the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as Items #12/2 and #12/3

St. Martin Parish Government's Response to Findings

The Parish Government's response to the findings identified m our audit are described m the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The Parish Government's response was not subjected to the auditing procedure applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

Purpose of this Report

This report i s intended s o l e l y to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the St. Martin Parish Government's internal control or on compliance This report is an integral part of an audit performed m accordance with Governmental Audi t ing Standards in considering the Parish Government's internal control and compliance. This report is intended for the information and use of management, the St. Martin Parish Council Members, others withm the entity and federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY OMB CIRCULAR A-133

To the Honorable Guy Cormier, Parish President and the Members of the St Martin Parish Council

St. Martinvllle, Louisiana

Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program

We have audited the St Martin Parish Government's compliance with the types of compliance requirements described in the OMB C i r c u l a r A-133 Compliance Supplement that could have a direct ana material effect on each of the St. Martin Parish Government's ma3or federal programs for the year ended December 31, 2012 The ma3or federal program of the St. Martin Parish Government is identified m the summary of auditor's 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 program.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for the St Martin Parish Government's major federal program based on our audit of the 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 Audi t ing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and OMB Circular A-133, Audits of S t a t e s , Local gove rnmen t s , and N o n p r o f i t O r g a n i z a t i o n s Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the St Martin Parish Government'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 the major federal program However, our audit does not provide a legal determination on the St Martin Parish Government's compliance

Opinion on Each Major Federal Program

In our opinion, the St. Martin Parish government complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on its major federal program for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Report on Internal Control Over Compliance

Management of the St. Martin Parish Government is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered the St. Martin Parish Government's internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on the major federal program in order 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 to test and report on internal control compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133, 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 St Martin Parish Government's internal control over compliance

A def ic iency m i n t e r n a l con t ro l over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, m 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 on a timely basis. A m a t e r i a l weakness m i n t e r n a l c o n t r o l o v e r c o m p l i a n c e 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 will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described m 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. We did not identify any deficiencies m internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

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 results of that testing based on the requirements of OMB Circular A-133. This report is intended for the information and use of management, the St. Martin Parish Council Members, others within the entity, federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. Under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by the Legislative Auditor as a public document.

ST. MARTIN PARISH GOVERNMENT

Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs

Year Ended December 31, 2012

ST. MARTIN PARISH GOVERNMENT

Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs(Continued) Year Ended December 31, 2012

Section II: Financial Statement Findings

Item 12/1-

Finding and Cause:

As IS common in small organizations, the St. Martin Parish Government does not have a staff person who has the qualifications and training to apply generally accepted accounting principles(GAAP) m preparing its financial statements, including related notes As such management has chosen to engage the auditor to prepare the annual financial statements. This condition is intentional by management based upon the Parish Government's limited administrative personnel, along with the cost effectiveness of acquiring the ability to prepare financial statements in accordance with GAAP. Based on this decision, internal controls over the preparation of the financial statements, including the notes, in accordance with GAAP have not been established. Under generally accepted auditing standards, this represents a significant deficiency in internal controls.

Recommendation and Response

Management has evaluated the cost vs benefit of establishing internal controls over the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and determined that it is in the best interests of the Parish Government to outsource this task to its independent auditors, and carefully review the draft financial statements and notes prior to approving them and accepting responsibility for the contents and presentation.

Item 12/2-Noncompliance with LSA-R.S 39.1301

Finding:

The Louisiana Local Government Budget Act requires governments to amend their budget when total actual revenues fail to meet budgeted revenues or actual expenditures exceed total budgeted expenditures by 5% or more. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the General Fund had budget expenditures and interfund transfers in excess of 5% of budgeted amounts. Additionally, the HUD Section 8 Housing Vouchers Fund, had budgeted revenues m excess of actual revenues by an amount in excess of 5%. This is a repeat finding Also, the revised budget format presentation mandated by R S. 39:1305(C)(2)(a) was not employed m the formulation of the annual budget presentation.

Cause.

Noncompliance in this area was primarily due to excessive General Fund expenditures m the final month of the accounting period, coupled with an accrual error m reporting interim revenues used in formulating the final amended revenues budget for the HUD Section 8 Housing Vouchers Fund. Noncompliance in presentation of annual budget as mandated by LSA R.S 39.1305(C)(2) was due to failure to employ an appropriate budget template that conformed to the revised budget statute

ST. MARTIN PARISH GOVERNMENT

Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs(Continued)

Year Ended December 31, 2012

Recommendation and Response:

We recommend, and management agrees, that in the future, the final fiscal year amended budgets will be prepared and adopted in the month immediately following the close of the fiscal year, which will more easily enable management to factor in all transpired actual revenues, expenditures and operating transfers for the completed fiscal year. Also, the parish president will take a more active role in budget formulation and preparation, to further mitigate the need for major budget revisions at year end. In addition, the recommended sample budget formulation template available on the Louisiana Legislative Auditor's website will be employed m future budget computation and presentation

Item 12/3-Noncompliance with LSA-R.S 33 463

Finding

The St. Martin Parish Government did not comply with the requirements of Louisiana Revised Statute 33:463. Annual audited financial reports for parish governmental entities, in accordance with LSA-R.S 33-463, must be filed with the Louisiana Legislative Auditor's Office within six months after the c l o s e of the fiscal year

Cause:

Noncompliance m this area was primarily due to software vendor mandated extensive year end revision to accounting software packages, which resulted in excessive delays in year end closing.

Recommendation and Response

We recommend, and management agrees, that in the future, any planned software upgrades or revisions be undertaken sufficiently in advance of year end, in order to avoid any unanticipated delays in year end closing due to unfamiliarity with, or problems involving accounting software revisions.

Section III: Federal Award Findings and Questioned Costs
