REPORTING ENTITY.
All City funds, departments, commissions, and other organizations for which the City of Andover is
financially accountable are presented within the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. The Andover Firefighters’ Relief
Association does not meet the established criteria for inclusion in the reporting entity, and accordingly are excluded from this
report.
GENERAL INFORMATION.
The city we know today as Andover was first organized in 1857 under the name “Round Lake
Township.” However, in 1860 the name was changed to “Grow Township” in honor of Senator Galusha A. Grow of
Pennsylvania. Senator Grow spoke at a political campaign in Anoka that year, and the town name was changed to reflect Senator
Grow because of his strong advocacy of the Union cause. At that time, the population was 330 and included the geographical
area we know today as Ham Lake. In fact, the area of Ham Lake was considered a part of Grow Township until 1871.
In 1972, the Grow Township Board of Supervisors recognized that the town was growing at a very rapid rate. They felt a village
form of government would provide better services to the community. Board supervisors then voted in favor of proceeding with
the incorporation process. The board voted to submit a new name for the village. “Andover Village” was chosen because the
name Andover had historical interest. The historical interest, we believe, came from the Andover train station.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Andover, Minnesota
You may have heard the popular “train myth” about how Andover received its name. The myth states that a train tipped over in a
swamp, and an eyewitness, relaying the incident, said it “went over and over,” thereby naming the city “Andover.” However,
Anoka County Union Newspaper
research reveals that the name Andover first appeared in an article dated March 14, 1899 in the
-
before train tracks were ever built in the city.
The article stated that the Eastern Minnesota line of the Great Northern Railway was in the process of constructing railroad tracks
from the Coon Creek Cut-off to the North. The railway announced that new railroad stations with mathematical precision were to
be located five miles apart from each other. The new stations (from Coon Creek to the North, along the new railroad line) were
to be named Andover, Cedar, Bethel, Isanti, Cambridge, Stanchfield, Braham, Grasston, Cornell, and Brook Park. On July 4,
1899, the first train passed through the Andover Station. Where the railway came up with the name Andover still remains
unknown.
Andover Village was established in 1972 and then became the City of Andover, a city of the fourth class, in 1974. Today the
City of Andover’s population exceeds 20,000, classifying it as a second class city.
The City of Andover as it exists today consists of 23,040 acres. Andover has a population estimated at 30,750. A rapidly
growing suburb of the northern metropolitan area, the City of Andover is approximately sixteen miles from Minneapolis.

IMPLEMENTATION OF GASB 34
In June 1999, the GASB issued Statement 34, which is the most comprehensive government accounting rule ever developed. This
standard substantially changes the way state and local governments report their financial activity. Andover had implemented
these changes in 2002. A summary of the most significant changes is as follows:
1. Government-wide financial statements are prepared using full accrual accounting
2. Basic fund financial statements present major funds instead of fund types
3. Budgetary comparisons include original and amended budgets
4. All infrastructures have been capitalized and all capital assets are depreciated except streets and trails that are under the
modified approach.
5. A management discussion and analysis is included as required supplemental information

City of Andover, Minnesota
ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK
Very moderate population growth is expected to continue in 2008 and 2009, with an estimated population of 33,000 by 2010. The
rate of residential growth as compared to the growth in the 90’s has significantly declined as the availability of residentially
zoned property decreased. The City has experienced a significant amount of commercial growth from 2000 through current
2008. Continual commercial growth is anticipated over the next five to ten years, beyond that growth will slow as the amount of
undeveloped commercially zoned property also declines.
The City's General Fund has two major categories of revenue, which accounted for 81% of the total in 2008. They are general
property taxes at 72%, and charges for services at 9%. In prior years, intergovernmental revenue was the second largest category
of revenue for the General Fund. Intergovernmental revenue includes state aids, such as local government aid (LGA), market
value homestead credit (MVHC), highway maintenance aid, fire relief aid and police aid; and county grants, such as recycling
and community development.
During the past several years, the State of Minnesota has made numerous changes to laws pertaining to the distribution of LGA,
Homestead and Agricultural Credit Aid (HACA) and MVHC resulting in a significant reduction in intergovernmental revenue.
The City was able to make up this loss in aid through efficiencies and an increased tax levy, substantially increasing the local tax
rate in 2002. The tax laws that resulted in this change also greatly reduced school district property tax levies, resulting in no net
tax increase for most residential property owners. Sweeping changes approved in 2003 resulted in the loss of approximately
$590,000 in aid to Andover, that loss in aid was originally intended to be for two years (2003 & 2004) but that loss was extended
to include years 2005 and 2006. The state allowed cities the ability to levy up to 60% of the lost 2003 aid in 2004. Again, in
2008, the State of Minnesota significantly reduced MVHC to help deal with the state budget deficit.
LGA, HACA and MVHC for 1998 through 2008 are as follows:

*Due to the State Legislative actions to deal with the state budget deficits,
the City will not be receiving any LGA and significantly reduced MVHC.
For 1998 through 2000, cities with populations over 2,500 were under levy limit restrictions imposed by the State. Levy limits
severely curb the ability of cities to generate additional tax revenue needed to respond to an increasing demand for services. For
1999 and 2000, the levy limit formula was modified to allow for increases based on commercial and industrial growth. This was
a favorable change for Andover, as the City experienced a surge in commercial growth during the past few years. Levy limits
were lifted for 2001 but were reinstated for 2002 - 2004. The 2004 levy limits were so severe that the State did not allow cities
the ability to capture residential and commercial market value growth. Levy limits were lifted from 2005 to 2008, but reinstated
for 2009, 2010 and 2011.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Andover, Minnesota
The State's property tax reform efforts have also included modifications to property class rates. Reductions in the class rates for
all major types of property have occurred in 1998, 1999, 2000, and for 2002. These changes resulted in a decrease in the taxable
value of most properties. These changes and the impact on various valued properties are shown in the following table:

The City’s General Fund receives a substantial amount of revenue from licenses and permits. The past ten years are shown
below:
RevenuesChange

2007475,893 (122,201)
2008525,339 49,446
The $131,747 decrease in revenue for 2002 is due to reclassification of plan check fees ($263,535), which were previously
recorded as license and permit fee and are now recorded as a charges for services revenue. Revenue from residential building
continued to modestly increase through 2002 but declined in 2003, as a reduced number of new residential lots were being added
to the overall lot inventory. License and permit fees increased substantially in 2004 as the number of residential lots available
and built on has increased and the value of new construction is on the rise. The decrease in 2006 and 2007 is largely due to a
slowing economy and home building market. A slight increase in 2008 is primarily due to the commercial activity taking place
but a decrease is expected for 2009.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Andover, Minnesota
The City’s General Fund also receives a considerable amount of revenue from charges for services. The past ten years are shown
below:
RevenuesChange
1999754,629$ n/a
2000900,235 145,606$

20071,121,642 341,369
2008772,430 (349,212)
The City analyzes user fees every year as part of the budget process and makes adjustments where appropriate. Revenue from
charges for services totaled $1,121,642 in 2007 and this increase can be linked to the number of public improvement projects
being finalized and assessed in 2007. 2008 proved to be better than expected due to some residential plat activity taking place
but a decrease is expected for 2009.
EMPLOYMENT
The City of Andover’s largest employers are government entities. The Anoka-Hennepin School District has a significant
presence in the community and Anoka County’s Parks and Highway Departments and Sheriffs Office headquarters are located in
Andover. The City of Andover is best classified as a bedroom community, since a majority of the residents commute outside of
Andover for employment opportunities. The City does anticipate with the development of the Andover Station Commercial Park
and other commercial developments that additional employment opportunities will be provided to residents in the near future.

MAJOR INITIATIVES
FOR THE YEAR.
The City has many accomplishments to report for 2008. The following list is a summary of some of the
major initiatives completed throughout the year.
1)The response to significant storm damage continues. The Building Department had been very busy with various
permits related to 2007 severe storm activity in the community that has damaged a significant number of roofs and
siding on resident homes. That again continued in 2008 as the City was hit by severe storms that produced high winds
and hail.
2)Implementation of the roadway reconstruction and assessment policy that was developed throughout 2006 and 2007.
This was done with a successful 2008 roadway reconstruction project. The roadway reconstruction and assessment
policy was approved which provided a clear understanding for staff and the Council on how the process is handled.
The clear policy provided information for the residents and was supported by the Council during public hearings.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Andover, Minnesota
3)Construction of the wayside horn at Crosstown Boulevard and the construction of the Railroad Quiet Zone at
st
Constance Boulevard (161 Avenue). These two projects were a challenge from the standpoint of this being something
new and the challenges of working and communicating with the Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) Railroad. Most
of this work (design and project administration) was done in-house which was a substantial cost savings to the City.
4)The construction of the new Anoka County Law Enforcement Center and Regional Forensic Laboratory got underway
in the summer of 2008. This project has been in the planning stage for over ten years and was able to move forward
with the help of a $3 million grant from the State of Minnesota. It is anticipated that the center will be open in the fall
of 2009.
5)The successful hosting of the City’s Annual Business Appreciation Day to recognize and build awareness of the local
business community and strengthens relationships with this important element of the Andover community. This event
was coordinated through the Community Development Department.
6)The City has continued the planning for the future expansion of the City Center campus to the west of existing Public
Works facilities. Land negotiations with the property owner resulted in a three-phase acquisition schedule of
approximately 29 acres of land and the acquisition of two additional parcels of land along Crosstown Boulevard just
west of the Water Treatment facility. The 2008 property acquisitions will allow for a staged development in
preparation for the completion of the ultimate expansion of the Public Works facilities, potential expansion of the
Community Center and additional recreational amenities. The planning will continue to be part of the capital
improvement planning process.
7)The development of three baseball fields at the Andover Station North complex which includes ball field lighting, a
new playscape, parking lot, pavilion building and paved trail. This park was designed by the City’s Engineering
Department and constructed by a partnership of Public Works staffing, contracted service and volunteer labor. The
final product is a true testament of what can be accomplished when residents and City staff work together toward a
common goal.
8)The successful negotiation with Anoka County of intersection improvements at Crosstown Boulevard and Nightingale
Street. This improvement has significantly improved the traffic flow around Andover High School.
9)The marketing of Andover Station North within the City of Andover. The Andover Economic Development Authority
along with City staff has developed this commercial park and has seen commercial building activity throughout 2008,
such as Foundation Hill Montessori, Dynamic Sealing Technologies and Blue Fin Pool and Spa.
10)In 2008, the City Planning Department facilitated the updating of the various City Codes, including the Building
Maintenance Code. The completion of this update has provided the City staff with needed tools to help preserve single
family market values.
11)The City staff completed various studies as part of a Comprehensive Plan Update including: a park dedication study,
sanitary sewer study, water system study and transportation system study. The City, as required, submitted these
documents to the Metropolitan Council after the completion of a public hearing and a six-month review by neighboring
cities. It is anticipated that the Comprehensive Plan Update will be approved by the Met Council in the spring of 2009.
12)The City Open Space Commission, appointed to assist in managing the successful $2,000,000 open space referendum
ballot in 2006, developed a detailed natural amenity inventory, held informational meetings with residents and has
made recommendations to the City Council on land that should be purchased as permanent open space in the
community. It is anticipated that the first purchase will take place in 2009.
13)The City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the year ended December 31, 2007 was awarded the
Government Finance Officers Association’s "Excellence in Financial Reporting Award.” The City completes this
document internally and recognized significant cost savings in the form of reduced financial consulting fees. This is
the sixth consecutive year receiving the award and it is anticipated that the City’s CAFR for the year ended December
31, 2008 will also achieve this award.
14)For the seventh year in a row, the City of Andover was awarded the Government Finance Officers Association
Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the City's 2008 Annual Budget. This award recognizes excellence in the
preparation of the City’s budget document as a policy document, an operations guide, as a financial plan and as a
communications device.

To the Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Andover, Minnesota
15)The City continues to make significant progress after the implementation of new hardware and software to start the
process of digital imaging documents retained by the City. The imaging project has helped the City reduce staffing
through data storage, retrieval efficiencies and eliminated the need for City Hall office expansion.
16)The City continues to utilize updates to our financial management software to improve reporting and operating
efficiencies. These updates continue to yield reduced personnel costs and more timely reports.
Residential Development
Residential development slowed to 49 new housing starts in 2008. The current lot supply of single family lots does provide an
adequate supply of buildable lots for the current economy, so it is anticipated that very few residential plats will occur in 2009.
Two residential project sketch plans were introduced near the end of 2008 and if ultimately approved in 2009 would add 48 new
residential lots.
Commercial Industrial Development
The majority of growth in 2008 came from commercial projects. These projects included review and approval of Minnco Credit
Union, Dynamic Sealing Technologies, Inc., Beef O’ Brady’s Restaurant, Foundation Hill Daycare and Montessori School, Coon
Rapids United Methodist Church, Anoka County Public Safety Campus and Blue Fin Pool and Spa. When completed, these
buildings will add 60,000 square feet of commercial tax base and 135,000 square feet of government and institutional space.
FOR THE FUTURE.
The City continues to focus on quality of life improvements throughout the City. These efforts cover a
broad array of areas including: protecting and improving the environment, revitalization of parks and public areas, expanding
recreational opportunities, providing cost-effective city services, increased communication between city representatives and the
public and added commercial/retail opportunities.
The City utilizes many avenues to reach its residents, whether through community access television, the City newsletter or the
City’s webpage (www.ci.andover.mn.us). It is important to the City that our residents are informed and have the ability to
participate in the activities of their City. The City did conduct a community survey in 2006, with the help of a polling firm, to
secure opinions and suggestions from the public.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
INTERNAL CONTROL.
The City's accounting system was developed and is continually evaluated to assure the adequacy of
internal accounting controls. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable but not absolute assurance in the
areas of: (1) safeguarding assets against loss from unauthorized use or disposition; and (2) reliability of financial records and
convenience of access for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable
assurance adopted by the City of Andover recognizes that: (1) the evaluation of cost and benefits requires estimates and
judgments by management; and (2) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived. All internal controls
are evaluated against the above criteria. It is our belief that the City's internal accounting controls adequately safeguard the City's
assets and also provide reasonable assurance of properly recording financial transactions.
BUDGETING CONTROLS.
In addition to internal accounting controls, the City maintains budgetary controls. The objective
of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual budget approved by the City
Council. Activities of the General Fund and Special Revenue Funds are included in the annual budget.
As demonstrated by the statements and schedules included in the financial section of this report, the City continues to meet its
responsibility for sound financial management.
CASH MANAGEMENT.
Cash temporarily idle during the year was invested in demand deposits, certificates of deposit, U.S.
government and agency securities, state and local government securities and commercial paper.
The City's investment policy is to minimize credit and market risks while maintaining a competitive yield on its portfolio.
Accordingly, deposits are required to be insured by federal depository insurance or collateralized. The City, its agent or a
financial institution’s trust department in the City’s name held all collateral on deposits.
RISK MANAGEMENT.
The City Finance Department performs the duties of risk management. The Finance
Department continually reviews the City's exposures to losses, evaluates insurance specifications, coordinates with an insurance
broker the placement and renewal of coverage and reviews programs to reduce costs and improve cash flow. Although the City
experiences population growth, additional miles of road, payroll, and expenditures increase, the City has been able to keep
insurance costs fairly flat over the past five years.

OTHER INFORMATION
AWARDS.
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) of the United States and Canada presented a Distinguished
Budget Presentation Award to the City of Andover for its annual budget for the fiscal year beginning January 1, 2008. This is the
seventh year in a row the City of Andover has received this award. In order to receive this award, a governmental unit must
publish a budget document that meets program criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan and as a
communications device. This award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that the annual budget for the fiscal year
beginning January 1, 2009 continues to conform to the program requirements and have submitted it to the GFOA to determine its
eligibility for another award.
The GFOA also presented the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting Award to the City of Andover
for its 2007 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. This is the sixth time the City of Andover has received this award. In
order to receive this award, a government unit must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual
financial report whose contents conform to program standards. Such reports must satisfy both generally accepted accounting
principles and applicable legal requirements. This award is valid for a period of one year only. We believe this report for 2008
continues to conform to the Certificate of Achievement Program requirements and have submitted it to the GFOA to determine
its eligibility for another award.
INDEPENDENT AUDIT.
State statutes require an annual audit by independent certified public accountants. HLB Tautges
Redpath, Ltd. was engaged by the City to render an opinion on the City's financial statements. The auditor's report on the basic
financial statements and combining and individual fund statements and schedules is included in the financial section of this
report.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS.
The preparation of this report could not have been accomplished without the efficient services and
dedication of the Finance Department staff and the consultation of the City's auditing firm. Staff members: Lee Brezinka,
Melissa Rustman and Brenda Fildes have my sincere appreciation for their contribution to the preparation of this report.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
December 31, 2008
As management of the City of Andover, we offer readers of the City of Andover’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis
of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. We encourage readers to consider the information
presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on pages 2
through 9 of this report.
Financial Highlights
The assets of the City of Andover exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $149,505,540 (Net assets). Of this
amount, $7,485,640 (unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors in
accordance with the City's fund designations and fiscal policies.
The City’s total net assets increased by $920,526, primarily due to the change in recording of tax increment revenues. Starting in 2008, all
tax increment revenues will be receipted in the Tax Increment Projects Capital Projects Fund and transferred over to make debt service
payments as needed, thus avoiding any arbitrage penalties. In 2008, the tax increment debt service funds had sufficient funds to make its
debt service payments so no tax increment funds were transferred.
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City of Andover’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $39,286,726.

Overview of the Financial Statements
The discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the City of Andover’s basic financial statements. The City’s basic
financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the
financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.
Government-wide financial statements
. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview
of the City of Andover’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.

CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
December 31, 2008
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City of Andover’s assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two
reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the
City of Andover is improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City’s net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in
net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus,
revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g.
uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of Andover that are principally supported by taxes and
intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their
costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City of Andover include general
government, public safety, public works, sanitation, parks and recreation, recycling and economic development. The business-type activities
of the City of Andover include water, sewer and storm sewer.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 29 through 31 of this report.
Fund Financial statements
. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been
segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of Andover, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure
and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City of Andover can be divided into three
categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds
. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the
government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements
focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spend-able resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the
fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financial requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the
information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide
financial statement. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the City's near-term financial decisions. Both the
governmental fund balance sheet and governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and change in fund balances provide a
reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City of Andover maintains eight individual major governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund
balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the following major funds:
General Fund, 2006 Economic Development Authority (EDA) Public Facility Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds Debt Service Fund, 2007
EDA Public Facility Lease Revenue RefundingBonds Debt Service Fund and the following capital projects funds (CPF): Water Trunk,
Sewer Trunk, Road and Bridge, Tax Increment Projects and Permanent Improvement Revolving.
Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-
major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The City of Andover adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general and special revenue funds.
A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for those funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 32 through 37 of this report.
Proprietary funds
. When the City charges customers for the services it provided – whether to outside customers or to other departments of
the City – these services are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same way that all activities are
reported in the statement of net assets and the statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net assets.
The enterprise funds are the same as the business-type activities reported in the government-wide statements but provide more detail and
additional information, such as cash flows, for proprietary funds. The City of Andover uses enterprise funds to account for its water, sanitary
sewer and storm sewer operations.
Internal service funds are used to report activities that provide supplies and services for the City’s other departments, such as the equipment
maintenance and insurance funds. The internal service funds are reported with governmental activities in the government-wide financial
statements.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 38 through 43 of this report.

CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
December 31, 2008
Fiduciary funds
. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds
are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City of
Andover’s own program. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
The basic fiduciary fund financial statement can be found on page 44 of this report.
Notes to the financial statements
. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in
the government–wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 45 through 77 of this report.
Other information.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds is presented
immediately following the required supplementary information on budgetary comparisons, and on the modified approach for streets and trails
infrastructure. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on pages 85 through 123 of this report.
Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City of Andover,
assets exceeded liabilities by $149,505,540 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.
The largest portion of the City of Andover’s net assets ($117,250,821 or 78 percent) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g. land,
buildings, machinery, and equipment) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. It does not include any
refunding debt that has not met the refunding date of the original issue. The City of Andover uses these capital assets to provide services to
citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City of Andover's investment in 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 sources, since the
capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

A portion of the City of Andover's net assets represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The
remaining balance of unrestricted net assets ($7,485,640) may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Andover is able to report positive balances in all three categories of net assets, both for the
government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities.

Financial Analysis of the Government's Funds
Governmental Funds
. The focus of the City of Andover’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows,
and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City of Andover’s financing requirements. In particular,
unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Andover's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $39,286,726.
Approximately 47 percent of this total amount ($18,338,618) constitutes unreserved fund balance. The remainder of the fund balance
($20,948,108) is reserved because it has already been committed 1) to provide for prepaid items ($114,915), 2) to provide for inventory
($93,836), 3) to provide for economic development ($2,260), 4) to pay debt service ($20,132,603) and 5) bond proceeds specified for a
project ($604,494).
Major Funds
The general fund increased by $284,575 in 2008, which was a $359,097 change from the final budget. The adopted and final budget showed
a decrease in fund balance of $74,522. The increase in fund balance is due to employee vacancies and various departments under-spending.
The water and sewer trunk capital projects funds fluctuate based on development activity and whether there is any cost sharing for pipe over-
sizing, extra depth, etc. In 2008, the water trunk fund expenditures are primarily for the refurbishing of a water tower. The sewer trunk fund
continues to receive funds from the sewer enterprise fund to be set aside for future replacements.
The road and bridge capital projects fund decreased by $684,789 primarily due to the City’s share of the reconstruction of Hanson Blvd NW,
an Anoka County Highway Department project. Also included in the decrease was the completion of a wayside horn at the railroad crossing
st
on Crosstown Blvd NW and a quiet zone at the railroad crossing on 161 Avenue.
The tax increment capital projects fund increased by $2,091,407 due to the recording of tax increment revenue. Starting in 2008, all tax
increment revenues will be receipted in the capital projects fund and transferred, as needed, to the debt service funds to make the debt service
payments. In 2008, the debt service funds had sufficient funds to make its debt service payments so no monies were transferred.
Nonmajor Funds
The community center special revenue fund decreased by $112,119, primarily due to the transfer of monies to the debt service fund. Half of
the building is leased to the Greater Minneapolis YMCA and they started making lease payments in 2008. The City received a partial lease
payment in 2008 of $235,686 and years 2009 through 2033 will be receiving scheduled lease payments between $626,020 and $635,000
annually with a final lease payment in 2034 of $287,567. Future YMCA lease payments will significantly reduce the City’s obligation to
finance annual debt service.
In 2008, the capital equipment reserve special revenue fund decreased by $178,726. This change was due to the transfer of $75,000 to the
park dedication capital projects fund to help offset the construction costs of the Andover Station North ball field building. Also reducing
fund balance by $80,000 was the installation of an irrigation well for Sunshine Park. Upon completion, this well will save the general fund
over $40,000 a year in water expenditures.
The 2003B and 2004B G.O. TIF refunding debt service funds decreased by $242,644 and $573,869, respectively. As explained earlier, all tax
increment revenues will be receipted in the tax increment projects capital projects fund and transferred, as needed, to the TIF debt service
funds to make the debt service payments. In 2008, the debt service funds had sufficient funds to make its debt service payments so no
monies were transferred.
The 2005A G.O. improvement bonds debt service fund decreased by $637,560 due to its annual debt service payment.
The open space referendum bonds debt service fund increased by $162,810 due to the collection of its annual debt service levy and no debt
service payments because the bonds have yet to be sold.
Proprietary funds
. The City of Andover’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial
statements, but in more detail.
The unrestricted net assets in the respective proprietary funds are enterprise funds of $4,112,464 (water $1,528,409, sewer $2,416,570 and
storm sewer $167,485) and internal service funds of $139,225. The enterprise funds had a net decrease in net assets in 2008 of $629,532
(water ($272,577), sewer ($124,683) and storm sewer ($232,272)). Internal service funds had a net decrease in net assets of $5,457.

Capital Asset and Debt Administration
Capital assets
. The City of Andover’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities as of December 31,
2008, amounts to $160,865,821 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, infrastructure,
machinery and equipment.
The City has elected to use the modified approach as defined in GASB Statement No. 34 for infrastructure reporting for its Pavement
Management Program, which includes streets and trails. Under GASB Statement No. 34, eligible infrastructure capital assets are not required
to be depreciated under the following requirements:
1) The City manages the eligible infrastructure capital assets using an asset management system with characteristics of (a) an up-to-
date inventory; (b) perform condition assessments and summarize the results using a measurement scale; and (c) estimate annual
amount to maintain and preserve at the established condition assessment level.
2)The City documents that the eligible infrastructure capital assets are being preserved approximately at or above the established and
disclosed condition assessment level.
The City’s policy is to achieve an average rating of good (56 – 70) for all streets and trails. In the fall of 2008, the City conducted a physical
condition assessment of the streets and trails constructed since 1974. This assessment will be completed every three years. As of December
31, 2008, the City’s street and trail system was rated at an Overall Condition Index (OCI) of 80, which is higher than the City’s policy level.
The City’s streets and trails are constantly deteriorating resulting from the following factors: (1) traffic using the system; (2) the sun’s ultra-
violet rays drying out and breaking down the top layer of pavement; (3) utility company/private development trenching operations; (4) water
damage from natural precipitation; and (5) frost heave. The City is continuously taking actions to prolong the life of the system through
short-term maintenance activities such as pothole patching, crack sealing, seal coating and overlaying. The City expended $2,244,713 on
street and trail maintenance for the year ending December 31, 2008. These expenditures delayed deterioration; however, the overall
condition of the system declined slightly (81 OCI to an 80 OCI) through these maintenance expenditures. The City has estimated that the
amount of annual expenditures required to maintain the City’s street and trail system at the average OCI rating of good is approximately
$1,150,000.

Fund balance reported above
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net assets are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial resources and, therefore, are not reported in the funds.
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and, therefore, are deferred in the funds.
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the cost of equipment maintenance and insurance to individual funds.
The assets and liabilities are included in the governmental activities statement of net assets along with a deduction of net
revenue attributable to business-type activities.
Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable and other post employment benefits, are not due and payable in the current period and,
therefore, are not reported in the funds.

RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, Statement 5
EXPENDITURES, AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF
GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
For The Year Ended December 31, 2008
20082007
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the
statement of activities (page 35) are different because:
Net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds (page 35) 130,015$ 8,115,296$
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported
as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation
in the current period. (144,513)1,631,628
The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets is to increase
(decrease) net assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, and donations). (326,623)(483,651)
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not
reported as revenues in the funds. (936,319)4,212,695
The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to
governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the
current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any
effect on net assets. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of
long-term debt and related items. 2,830,000(4,350,000)
Vested post employment benefits are reported in the governmental funds when amounts ar
e
paid. The statement of activities reports the benefits earned during the years. This amount -(36,096)
is the net effect of employee benefits earned and paid during the year
.
Transfer out of governmental capital assets contributed to Enterprise Funds. -(1,235,831)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require use of current financial
resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds. 39,051(264,262)
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the cost of equipment maintenance
and insurance to individual funds. This amount is the portion of net revenue attributable to
governmental activities. (5,995)(42,967)
Change in net assets of governmental activities (page 31)$ 1,549,520$7,582,908

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The City of Andover was incorporated in 1974 and operates under the State of Minnesota Statutory Plan A form of government. The
governing body consists of a five-member City council elected by voters of the City.
The financial statements of the City of Andover have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles as
applied to governmental units by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The following is a summary of the significant
accounting policies.
A. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY
As required by generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the reporting entity include those of the
City of Andover (the primary government) and its component units. The component units discussed below are included in the
City's reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or financial relationships with the City.
COMPONENT UNITS
In conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial statements of the component units have been
included in the financial reporting entity as blended component units.
The Andover Economic Development Authority (EDA) is an entity legally separate from the City. However, for financial
reporting purposes, the EDA is reported as if it were part of the City's operations because the members of the City Council
serve as EDA Board Members and its purpose is to promote development within the City of Andover. The activity of the EDA
is reported in the EDA General Special Revenue Fund. Separate financial statements are not prepared for the EDA.
B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement of changes in net assets) report
information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. For the most part, the
Governmental activities
effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements., which normally are supported by
business-type activities
taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from , which rely to a significant extent
on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or business-type activity
Direct expenses
are offset by program revenues. are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or business-type
Program revenues
activity. include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods,
services, or privileges provided by a given function or business-type activity and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted
to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or business-type activity. Taxes and other items not
general revenues
included among program revenues are reported instead as .
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the
latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual
enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.
C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION
economic resources measurement focusaccrual basis
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the and the
of accounting
, as are the Proprietary 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 in 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. The City’s only fiduciary funds are agency funds. Agency funds are custodial in
nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations.
current financial resources measurement focusmodified
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the and the
accrual basis of accounting
. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are
available
considered to be 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 all revenues, except reimbursement grants, to be available if they
45
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Reimbursement grants are considered available if they are
collected within one year 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, special assessments, intergovernmental revenues, charges for services and interest associated with the current
fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal
period. Only the portion of special assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is 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.
The government reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund
Theis the government’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general
government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
2006 EDA Public Facility Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds Debt Service Fund (DSF)
The was established to refund
portions of debt associated with the construction of the Andover YMCA Community Center.
2007 EDA Public Facility Lease Revenue Refunding Bonds DSF
The was established to refund portions of debt associated
with the construction of the Andover YMCA Community Center.
Water Trunk Capital Projects Fund (CPF)
The is used to account for water access fees and trunk improvements as part of
development. It is also used to reserve monies that will be needed for capital infrastructure replacements in the future.
Sewer Trunk CPF
The is used to account for sewer access fees and sanitary sewer improvements.
Road and Bridge CPF
The accounts for all road projects and the pavement management program, which includes annual
seal coating, crack sealing and overlays for roads.
Tax Increment Projects CPF
The is used to account for activities in TIF districts 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4 and all TIF land sales
and expenditures to reach the goals of the TIF district plans.
Permanent Improvement Revolving CPF
The serves as a long-term funding source for large capital improvement
expenditures.
The government reports the following major proprietary funds:
Water Fund
The accounts for the water service charges, which are used to finance the water system operating expenses.
Sewer Fund
The accounts for the sewer service charges, which are used to finance the sanitary sewer system operating
expenses.
Storm Sewer Fund
The accounts for the storm sewer utility charges, which are used to finance the storm sewer operating
expenses.
Additionally, the government reports the following fund types:
Internal Service Funds (ISF)
are used to provide equipment maintenance and insurance to other departments of the City
on a cost reimbursement basis.
Agency Funds
The are used to account for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals,
private organizations, and/or other governmental units. It is used to account for the collection and distribution of funds
relating to development activities and retiree insurance premiums.
Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are followed in both
the government-wide and proprietary-fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or
contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following
46
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
subsequent private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same limitation. The
government has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions to this general rule are transactions that would be treated as revenues, expenditures or expenses if they involved
external organizations, such as buying goods and services or payments in lieu of taxes, are similarly treated when they involve
other funds of the City of Andover. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported
for the various functions concerned.
program revenues
Amounts reported as include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges
provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments.
general revenues
Internally dedicated resources are reported as rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues
include all taxes.
operatingnonoperating
Proprietary funds distinguish revenues and expenses from items. Operating revenues and expenses
generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal
ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the water and sewer enterprise funds are charges to customers for
sales and services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and
depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues
and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for an allowable use, it is the government’s policy to use
restricted resources first, and then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D.BUDGETS
Budgets are legally adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Annual appropriated budgets
are legally adopted for the General and Special Revenue Funds. Budgeted expenditure appropriations lapse at year-end.
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are
recorded in order to reserve that portion of the appropriation, is not employed by the City because it is at present not
considered necessary to assure effective budgetary control or to facilitate effective cash management.
E.LEGAL COMPLIANCE - BUDGETS
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements:
1.The City Administrator submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing the
following January 1. The budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. The budget is legally enacted through City Council action.
4. Expenditures may legally exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level through City Council action. Also, the
City Council may authorize transfers of budgeted amounts between departments within any fund.
5. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund and
Special Revenue Funds. Budgetary control for Capital Projects Funds is accomplished through the use of project
controls.
6.The legal level of budgetary control is at the department level for the General Fund and at the fund level for the
Special Revenue Funds. Also inherent in this controlling function is the management philosophy that the existence
of a particular item or appropriation in the approved budget does
not automatically mean that it will be spent. The
budget process has flexibility in that, where need has been properly demonstrated, an adjustment can be made within
the department budget by the City Administrator or between departments by the City Council.
47

7. The City Council made supplemental budget appropriations throughout the year. Individual amendments were not
material in relation to the original appropriations which were adjusted.
The following is a listing of Special Revenue Funds whose expenditures exceed budget appropriations:
FinalOver
BudgetActualBudget
General Fund:
Current - Streets and highways$ 602,225$ 613,896$ 11,671
Capital Outlay - General government - 3,428 3,428
Special Revenue Funds:
Community Center 870,123 900,228 30,105
Forestry 15,000 22,389 7,389
The over expenditures were funded by greater than anticipated revenues and/or available fund balance.
F. CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash balances from all funds are combined and invested to the extent available in authorized investments. Earnings from such
investments are allocated to the individual funds on the basis of applicable cash balance participation of each fund.
The City provides temporary advances to funds that have insufficient cash balances by means of an advance from another fund
shown as interfund receivables in the advancing fund, and an interfund payable in the fund with the deficit, until adequate
resources are received. These interfund balances are eliminated on the government-wide financial statements.
Investments are stated at fair value, based upon quoted market prices. Short-term investments, such as commercial paper and
banker’s acceptances, are reported as amortized cost.
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows of Proprietary Fund Types, cash equivalents are defined as short-term, highly
liquid investments that are both:
a. readily convertible to known amounts of cash, or
b. so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates.
The City’s policy considers cash equivalents to be those that meet the above criteria and have original maturities of three
months or less.
G. RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided or services
rendered. Short-term interfund loans are classified as “interfund receivables/payables.” All short-term interfund receivables
and payables at December 31, 2008 are planned to be eliminated in 2009. Long-term interfund loans are classified as
“interfund loan receivable/payable.” Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type
activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal balances.”
Interfund loan receivables, as reported in the fund financial statements, are offset by a fund balance reserve account in
applicable governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not expendable available
financial resources.
Property taxes and special assessments receivable have been reported net of estimated uncollectible accounts. (See Note 1 H
and I). Because utility bills are considered liens on property, no estimated uncollectible amounts are established.
Uncollectible amounts are not material for other receivables and have not been reported.

CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
H. PROPERTY TAX REVENUE RECOGNITION
The City levies its property tax for the subsequent year during the month of December and it is certified to Anoka County.
December 30th is the last day the City can certify a tax levy to the County Auditor for collection the following year. Such
taxes become a lien on the following January 1. Anoka County is the collecting agency for the levy and remits the collections
to the City three times a year. Taxes not collected as of December 31 each year are shown as delinquent taxes receivable.
The County Auditor prepares the tax list for all taxable property in the City, applying the applicable tax rate to the tax capacity
of individual properties, to arrive at the actual tax for each property. The County Auditor also collects all special assessments,
except for certain prepayments paid directly to the City.
The County Auditor submits a list of taxes to be collected on each parcel of property to the County Treasurer in January of
each year. The County Treasurer collects all taxes and is required to mail copies of all personal property tax statements by
April 15, and copies of all real estate tax statements by April 15, of each year. Property owners are required to pay one-half of
their real estate taxes due by May 15 and the balance by October 15.
If taxes due May 15 are not paid on time, a penalty of 3% is assessed on homesteaded property and 7% on nonhomesteaded
property. An additional 1% penalty is added each month the taxes remain unpaid, until October 15. If the taxes due May 15
are not paid by October 15, a 2% penalty per month is added to homesteaded property and 4% per month to nonhomesteaded
property until January 1.
If the taxes are not paid by January 1, further penalties are added. Penalties and interest apply to both taxes and special
assessments. There are some exceptions to the above penalties, but they are not material.
Within 30 days after the tax settlement date, the County Treasurer is required to pay 70% of the estimated collections of taxes
and special assessments to the City Treasurer. The County Treasurer must pay the balance to the City Treasurer within 60
days after settlement, provided that after 45 days interest accrues at the rate of 8% per annum.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes property tax revenue in the period for which the taxes were levied. Uncollectible property taxes are not
material and have not been reported.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes property tax revenue when it becomes both measurable and available to finance expenditures of the
current period. In practice, current and delinquent taxes and State credits received by the City in July, December and January
are recognized as revenue for the current year. Taxes collected by the County by December 31 (remitted to the City the
following January) and taxes and credits not received at the year-end are classified as delinquent and due from County taxes
receivable. The portion of delinquent taxes not collected by the City in January is fully offset by deferred revenue because
they are not available to finance current expenditures.
I. SPECIAL ASSESSMENT REVENUE RECOGNITION
Special assessments are levied against benefited properties for the cost or a portion of the cost of special assessment
improvement projects in accordance with State Statutes. These assessments are collectible by the City over a term of years
usually consistent with the term of the related bond issue. Collection of annual installments (including interest) is handled by
the County Auditor in the same manner as property taxes. Property owners are allowed to (and often do) prepay future
installments without interest or prepayment penalties.
Once a special assessment roll is adopted, the amount attributed to each parcel is a lien upon that property until full payment is
made or the amount is determined to be excessive by the City Council or court action. If special assessments are allowed to go
delinquent, the property is subject to tax forfeit sale. Proceeds of sales from tax forfeit properties are allocated first to the
County’s costs of administering all tax forfeit properties. Pursuant to State Statutes, a property shall be subject to a tax forfeit
sale after three years unless it is homesteaded, agricultural or seasonal recreational land in which event the property is subject
to such sale after five years.

CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes special assessment revenue in the period that the assessment roll was adopted by the City Council.
Uncollectible special assessments are not material and have not been reported.
GOVERNMENTAL FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The City recognizes revenue from special assessments when it becomes measurable and available to finance expenditures of
the current fiscal period. In practice, current and delinquent special assessments received by the City are recognized as
revenue for the current year. Special assessments that are collected by the County by December 31 (remitted to the City the
following January) and are also recognized as revenue for the current year. All remaining delinquent, deferred and special
deferred assessments receivable in governmental funding are completely offset by deferred revenues.
J. INVENTORIES
Inventories of the Governmental Funds and the Proprietary Funds are stated at cost, which approximates market, using the
first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.
Inventories of Governmental Funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.
K. PREPAID ITEMS
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both
government-wide and fund financial statements.
L. CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar
items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial
statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 (amount
not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated
historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of
donation. The City has chosen the modified approach for reporting street and trail system capital assets.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not
capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during the
construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalized value of the assets
constructed. For the year ended December 31, 2008, no interest was capitalized in connection with construction in progress.
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, as well as the component units, are depreciated using the straight
line method over the following estimated useful lives:
AssetsLife
Buildings and improvements10 - 30 years
Furniture and equipment5 - 10 years
Machinery and equipment5 - 10 years
Other park improvements10 - 30 years

CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
The City elected to use the modified approach as defined by GASB Statement No. 34 for infrastructure reporting of its streets
and trails. The City conducted a physical assessment in the Fall of 2007 of the condition of the streets and trails constructed
since 1974. This condition assessment will be performed every 3 years. Each segment of City owned street or trail was
assigned a physical condition based on potential defects. An Overall Condition Index (OCI) was assigned to each segment.
The index is expressed in a continuous scale from 0 to 100, where 0 is assigned to the least acceptable physical condition and
100 is assigned to those segments that have the characteristic of a new street or trail. The following conditions were defined:
RangeDescription
86 - 100Excellent
71 - 85Very good
56 - 70Good
41 - 55Fair
26 - 40Poor
11 - 25Very poor
0 - 10Failed
The City’s policy relative to maintaining the street and trail assets is to achieve an average rating of “Good” for all segments.
This acceptable rating allows minor cracking and patching of the pavement along with minor roughness that could be
noticeable to the users of the system.
M. COMPENSATED ABSENCES
City employees earn vacation and sick pay accruing each payroll period. Unused vacation can be accrued by the employees up
to a maximum of 200 hours as of the anniversary date of the individual’s employment with the City, unless a specific
authorization is granted to an employee. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary
fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for
example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements.
Employees can also accrue an unlimited amount of unused sick leave. Employees with two or more years of service are
entitled to receive severance pay equal to a percentage of unused sick pay ranging from 20-50 percent based on years of
service, up to a maximum of 400 hours. The liability for severance pay is accounted for the same as accrued vacation pay.
N. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and
other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or
proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are immaterial and are
expensed in the year of bond issuance.
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 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.
O. FUND EQUITY
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for amounts not appropriable for
expenditure or legally segregated for a specific future use. Designated fund balances represent tentative plans for future use of
financial resources.
P. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
Interfund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues, expenditures or expenses.Transactions that constitute
reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it that are properly applicable to another fund, are
51
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is
reimbursed. Interfund loans are reported as an interfund loan receivable or payable which offsets the movement of cash
between funds. All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers.
Q. RESTRICTED ASSETS
Certain assets in the water fund are restricted for future debt service payments.
R. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires
management to make estimates that affect amounts reported in the financial statements during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from such estimates.
S. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND BALANCE SHEET
AND THE GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS
fund balance – total governmental funds net
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between and
assets – governmental activities
as reported in the government-wide statement of net assets. One element of that
reconciliation explains that “long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the current period
and therefore are not reported in the funds.” The details of this ($53,834,812) difference are as follows:

Another element of that reconciliation states that “The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital
assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to increase (decrease) net assets.” The details of this ($326,623) difference
are as follows:
In the statement of activities, only the gain on the sale of capital
assets is reported. However, in the governmental funds, the
proceeds from the sale increase financial resources. Thus, the
change in net assets differs from the change in fund balance by
the cost of the capital assets sold.$ (326,623)
Another element of that reconciliation states “Revenues on the Statement of Activities that do not provide current
financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.” The details of this ($936,319) difference are as follows:

Another element of that reconciliation states “the issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provides current
financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the long-term debt consumes the current financial
resources of governmental funds.” Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. The details of this

Custodial credit risk - investments – For investments in securities, custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a failure of the
counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investment securities that are in the possession of an outside party.
As of December 31, 2008, $250,000 of the City’s $45,375,911 investments was uninsured and unregistered, with securities held in
the City’s name.
Interest rate risk - The City has a formal investment policy that states the City will minimize the risk that the market value of
securities in the portfolio will fall due to the changes in general interest rates, by:
1)Structuring the investment portfolio so that securities mature to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations, thereby
avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior to maturity.
2) Investing operating funds primarily in shorter-term securities, money market mutual funds or similar investment pools.
Credit Risk - The City has a formal investment policy that states the City will minimize the credit risk, the risk of loss due to the
failure of the security issuer or backer, by:
1)Limiting investments to the safest types of securities.
2)Pre-qualifying the financial institutions, broker/dealers, intermediaries and advisers with which the City will do business.
A list will be maintained of financial institutions authorized to provide investment services. In addition, a list also will be
maintained of approved security broker/dealers selected by creditworthiness. These may include “primary” dealers or
regional dealers that qualify under Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Rule 15C3-1.
56
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
All financial institutions and broker/dealers who desire to become qualified for investment transactions must supply:
audited financial statements, proof of National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD) certification, proof of state
registration, completed broker/dealer questionnaire, and certification of having read and understood and agreeing to
comply with the City’s investment policy.
An annual review of the financial condition and registration of qualified financial institutions and broker/dealers will be
conducted by the City Administrator.
Concentration of Credit Risk - More than 65% of the City’s investments are in various holdings with U.S. agencies; Federal Home
Loan Bank (4.1%), Federal National Mortgage Association (6.0%), Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (4.3%) and U.S.
Treasury (51.6%). The City’s policy on concentration of investments is as follows:
1) Diversification - The investments shall be diversified by:
a) investments to avoid over concentration in securities from a specific issuer or business sector (excluding U.S.
Treasury securities),
b) limiting investment in securities that have higher credit risks,
c) investing in securities with varying maturities, and
d) continuously investing a portion of the portfolio in readily available funds such as local government investment
pools (LGIPs), money market funds or overnight repurchase agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is
maintained in order to meet ongoing obligations.
2) Maximum Maturities - To the extent possible, the City shall attempt to match its investments with anticipated cash flow
requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow, the City will not directly invest in securities maturing, or having
average lifes, of more than five (5) years from the date of purchase or in accordance with state and local statutes and
ordinances.
Reserve funds and other funds with longer-term investment horizons may be invested in securities exceeding five (5)
years if the maturity of such investments are made to coincide as nearly as practicable with the expected use of funds.
The intent to invest in securities with longer maturitues shall be disclosed in writing to the legislative body.
Because of inherent difficulties in accurately forecasting cash flow requirements, a portion of the portfolio should be
continuously invested in readily available funds such as local government investment pools, money market funds, or
overnight repurchase agreements to ensure that appropriate liquidity is maintained to meet ongoing obligations.

Note 5 CAPITAL ASSETS
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 34, the City has reported all capital assets including infrastructure in the government-wide
statement of net assets. The City elected to use the modified approach as defined by GASB Statement No. 34 for infrastructure reporting
for its streets and trails. As a result, no accumulated depreciation or depreciation expense has been recorded for this system. A more
detailed discussion of the modified approach is presented in the Required Supplementary Information section of this report. All other
capital assets including other infrastructure systems were reported using the basic approach whereby accumulated depreciation and
depreciation expense have been recorded.Adjustments due to restatement represent the changes due to an extensive inventory of all
capital assets, implementation of GASB Statement No. 34 and a policy change related to capitalization thresholds. Capital asset activity

Note 8 DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS - STATEWIDE
A. PLAN DESCRIPTION
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the City of Andover are covered by defined benefit plans administered by the
Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the Public Employees Retirement Fund
(PERF) and the Public Employees Police and Fire Fund (PEPFF), which are cost-sharing, multiple-employer retirement plans.
These plans are established and administered in accordance with Minnesota Statute, Chapters 353 and 356.
67
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan members are covered by Social
Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members must participate in the Coordinated Plan. All police officers,
firefighters and peace officers who qualify for membership by statute are covered by the PEPFF.
PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to survivors upon death of eligible
members. Benefits are established by State Statute, and vest after three years of credited service. The defined retirement
benefits are based on a member’s highest average salary for any five successive years of allowable service, age, and years of
credit at termination of service.
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERF’s Coordinated and Basic Plan members. The retiring member receives
the higher of a step-rate benefit accrual formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2). Under Method 1, the
annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2% of average salary for each of the first 10 years of service and 2.7% for
each remaining year. The annuity accrual rate for a Coordinated Plan member is 1.2% of average salary for each of the first 10
years and 1.7% for each remaining year. Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7% of average salary for Basic Plan
members and 1.7% for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service. For PEPFF members, the annuity accrual rate is
3.0% for each year of service. For all PEPFF and PERF members hired prior to July 1, 1989 whose annuity is calculated using
Method 1, a full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal 90. Normal retirement age is 55 for PEPFF members
and 65 for Basic and Coordinated members hired prior to July 1, 1989. Normal retirement age is the age for unreduced Social
Security benefits capped at 66 for Coordinated members hired on or after July 1, 1989. A reduced retirement annuity is also
available to eligible members seeking early retirement.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement. A single-life annuity is a lifetime annuity that
ceases upon the death of the retiree – no survivor annuity is payable. There are also various types of joint and survivor annuity
options available which will be payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their contributions in the fund upon
termination of public service in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement age. Refunds of contributions are available
at any time to members who leave public service, but before retirement benefits begin.
The benefit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current provisions and apply to active plan
participants. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are bound by the
provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
PERA issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for
PERF and PEPFF. That report may be obtained on the internet at www.mnpera.org, by writing to PERA, 60 Empire Drive
#200, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55103-2088 or by calling (651) 296-7460 or 1-800-652-9026.
B. FUNDING POLICY
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions. These statutes are established and
amended by the state legislature. The City makes annual contributions to the pension plans equal to the amount required by
state statutes. PERF Basic Plan members and Coordinated Plan members were required to contribute 9.10% and 6.00%,
respectively, of their annual covered salary in 2008. PEPFF members are required to contribute 8.60% of their annual covered
salary in 2008. That rate will increase to 9.40% in 2009. The City of Andover is required to contribute the following
percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.78% for Basic Plan PERF members, 6.50% for Coordinated Plan PERF members,
and 12.90% for PEPFF members. Employer contribution rates for the Coordinated Plan and PEPFF will increase to 6.75% and
14.10% respectively, effective January 1, 2009. The City’s contributions to the Public Employees Retirement Fund for the
years ending December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were $225,073, $213,396 and $194,241, respectively. The City’s
contributions to the Public Employees Police and Fire Fund for the years ending December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were
$21,367, $18,060 and $14,782, respectively. The City’s contributions were equal to the contractually required contributions
for each year as set by state statute.
C. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION LUMP SUM SERVICE PENSION PLAN – VOLUNTEER FIREFIGHTERS RELIEF
ASSOCIATION
PLAN DESCRIPTION
Members of the City’s volunteer fire department are members of the Andover Firefighters’ Relief Association. The
Association is the administrator of a single-employer defined contribution plan available to firefighters that was established
68
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
October 9, 1979 and operates under the provisions of Minnesota Statutes Section 424A. It is governed by a board of six
members elected by the members of the Association for three-year terms. The City’s Mayor, Finance Manager and Fire Chief
are ex-officio members of the Board of Trustees.
The Association provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to survivors upon death of
eligible members.
1.Twenty-Year Service Pension – In order to be entitled to a pension benefit, a firefighter must have completed a
minimum of five years of service with the Department and five years membership in the Association and attain the
age of 50 years. The firefighter will then be 40% vested. This percentage increases 4% per year until the twentieth
year when 100% vesting will occur. Because this is a defined contribution plan, the amount of the retirement benefit
is not predetermined, but rather is based on the individual member’s allocable portion of contributions made during
the participation period.
2.Deferred Pension – If the retired or terminated member has not attained age 50 and is otherwise eligible for the
pension benefit, the balance of the member’s account will be credited with earned interest at the rate permitted by
Minnesota Statutes Section 424.A02, Subd.7.
3.Disability Benefit – If a member of the Association becomes totally and permanently disabled due to injury,
disability, sickness or dismemberment as a result of performance of duty, a disability payment will be made after one
hundred days of disability.
4.Death Benefit – In the event of death of an active member or deferred pensioner, the member’s individual account
balance will be paid to the surviving spouse, surviving children or the estate of the member after approval by the
Board.
The Association issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary
information. That report may be obtained by writing to Andover Firefighters’ Relief Association, 13875 Crosstown
Boulevard, Andover, Minnesota 55304.
FUNDING POLICY
The State of Minnesota contributes amortization aid, or two percent fire aid, in accordance with state statute requirements.
Plan members are not required to contribute to the plan. The state legislature may amend contribution requirements of the City
and State. The City is allowed to make voluntary contributions of other public funds pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter
69. The City receives the State aid contribution and is required by state statutes to pass this through as payment to the
Association. This transaction is recorded as revenue and expenditure in the City’s financial statements. Contributions for the
last three years are as follows:

Note 9 OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
In 2008, the City prospectively implemented the requirement of a new accounting pronouncement, GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting
and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post Employment Benefits Other than Pensions.
A.PLAN DESCRIPTION
In addition to providing the pension benefits described in Note 8, the City provides post employment health care benefits (as
defined in paragraph B) for retired employees through a single employer defined benefit plan. The term plan refers to the
City’s requirement by State Statute to provide retirees with access to health insurance. The OPEB plan is administered by the
City. The authority to provide these benefits is established in Minnesota Statutes Sections 471.61 Subd. 2a, and 299A.465.
69
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
The benefits, benefit levels, employee contributions and employer contributions are governed by the City and can be amended
by the City through its personnel manual and collective bargaining agreements with employee groups. The Plan is not
accounted for as a trust fund, as an irrevocable trust has not been established to account for the plan. The Plan does not issue a
separate report.
B.BENEFITS PROVIDED
Retirees
The City is required by State Statute to allow retirees to continue participation in the City’s group health insurance plan if the
individual terminates service with the City through service retirement or disability retirement. Employees who satisfy the rule
of 90 or attain age 55 and have completed 10 years of service at termination can immediately commence medical benefits.
Retirees may obtain dependent coverage while the participating retiree is under age 65. Covered spouses may continue
coverage after the retiree’s death. The surviving spouse of an active employee may continue coverage in the group health
insurance plan after the employee’s death.
All health care coverage is provided through the City’s group health insurance plan. The retiree is required to pay 100% of
their premium cost for the City-sponsored group health insurance plan. The premium is a blended rate determined by the
entire active and retiree population. Since the projected claims costs for retirees exceed the blended premium paid by retirees,
the retirees are receiving an implicit rate subsidy (benefit). The coverage levels are the same as those afforded to active
employees. Upon a retiree reaching age 65 years of age, Medicare becomes the primary insurer and the City’s plan becomes
secondary.
C.PARTICIPANTS
As of the actuarial valuation dated January 2008, participants consisted of:
Retirees and beneficiaries currently
purchasing health insurance through the City3
Active employees 52
Total 55
Participating employers 1
D.FUNDING POLICY
The additional cost of using a blended rate for actives and retirees is currently funded on a pay-as-you-go basis. The City
Council may change the funding policy at any time.
E.ANNUAL OPEB COSTS AND NET OPEB OBLIGATION
The City’s annual other post employment benefit (OPEB) cost is calculated based on the annual requirement contribution
(ARC) of the employer, an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The
ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal costs each year and amortized
any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over period not to exceed 30 years. The net OPEB obligation as of
December 31, 2008, was calculated as follows:

The City first had an actuarial valuation performed for the plan as of January 1, 2008 to determine the funded status of the plan
as of that date as well as the employer’s annual required contribution (ARC) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. The
City’s annual OPEB cost (expense) of $53,096 was equal to the ARC for the fiscal year, as the transition liability was set at
zero as of December 31, 2007. The City’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan and
the net OPEB obligation for 2008 is as follows:

F.FUNDED STATUS AND FUNDING PROGRESS
The City currently has no assets that have been irrevocably deposited in a trust for future health benefits; therefore, the
actuarial value of assets is zero. The funded status of the plan was as follows:

January 1, 2008$ 324,387-$$324,3870.00%5,400,000$6.01%
G.ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the
probability of occurrence of events for into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality and
the health care cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions
(ARC) of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new
estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information
following the notes of the financial statements, presents multi-year trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of
plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are 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 cost between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial methods and assumptions used
include techniques that are designed to reduce the effect of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial
value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
71
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
In the January 1, 2008 actuarial valuation, the Entry-age Normal Actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial assumptions
included a 4.0% investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses) and an initial annual health care cost trend of 10.0%
reduced by 0.5% each year to arrive at an ultimate health care cost trend of 5.0%. The actuarial value of assets was $0. The
plan’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability is being amortized using the level percentage of projected payroll method over 30
years on a closed basis. The remaining amortization period at December 31, 2008, was 29 years.

Note 13 CONTINGENCIES
A. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts, theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions;
injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City participates in the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT),
a public entity risk pool for its general property and casualty, workers’ compensation, and other miscellaneous insurance
coverages.
Workers compensation coverage is provided through a pooled self-insurance program through the LMCIT. The City pays an
annual premium to LMCIT. The City is subject to supplemental assessments if deemed necessary by the LMCIT. The LMCIT
reinsures through Workers Compensation Reinsurance Association (WCRA) as required by law. For workers compensation,
the City enrolls with a state-certified managed care organization to receive a 2% premium credit towards the cost of coverage.
The City also has a $2,500 deductible per occurrence to further decrease the cost of coverage.Final premiums are determined
after an audit of payroll subsequent to the close of the agreement year and are subject to revisions in rates, payrolls and
experience modification. The amount of premium adjustment, if any, is considered immaterial and not recorded until received
or paid.
Property, casualty, and automobile insurance coverage are provided through a pooled self-insurance program through the
LMCIT. The City pays an annual premium to the LMCIT. The LMCIT reinsures through commercial companies for claims in
excess of various amounts. The City retains risk for the deductible portions. These deductibles are considered immaterial to
the financial statements.
The City continues to carry commercial insurance for all other risks of loss, including employee health and disability
insurance.
There were no significant reductions in insurance from the previous year or settlements in excess of insurance coverage for any
of the past three fiscal years.
74
CITY OF ANDOVER, MINNESOTA
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2008
B. LITIGATION
The City attorney has indicated that existing and pending lawsuits, claims and other actions in which the City is a defendant
are either covered by insurance; of an immaterial amount; or, in the judgment of the City attorney, remotely recoverable by
plaintiffs.
C. FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS
The City receives financial assistance from federal and state governmental agencies in the form of grants. The disbursement of
funds received under these programs generally requires compliance with the terms and conditions specified in the grant
agreements and are subject to audit by the grantor agencies. Any disallowed claims resulting from such audits could become a
liability of the applicable fund. However, in the opinion of management, any such disallowed claims will not have a material
effect on any of the financial statements of the individual fund types included herein or on the overall financial position of the
City at December 31, 2008.
D. TAX INCREMENT DISTRICTS
The City’s tax increment districts are subject to review by the State of Minnesota Office of the State Auditor (OSA). Any
disallowed claims or misuse of tax increments could become a liability of the applicable fund. Management has indicated that
they are not aware of any instances of noncompliance that would have a material effect on the financial statements.
E.PAY-AS-YOU-GO TAX INCREMENT
The City has one tax increment pay-as-you-go agreement. The agreement is not a general obligation of the City and is payable
solely from tax increments. Accordingly, this agreement is not reflected in the financial statements of the City. Details of the
pay-as-you-go are as follows:
TIF District #1-3, Farmstead Project: The pay-as-you-go agreement for TIF District #1-3 provides for the payment of 90% of
all tax increment received and will be completed February 1, 2015.
Note 14 DEFERRED AD VALOREM TAX LEVIES - BONDED DEBT
General Obligation bond issues sold by the City are financed by ad valorem tax levies and special assessment bond issues sold by the
City are partially financed by ad valorem tax levies in addition to special assessments levied against the benefiting properties. When a
bond issue to be financed partially or completely by ad valorem tax levies is sold, specific annual amounts of such tax levies are stated in
the bond resolution and the County Auditor is notified and instructed to levy these taxes over the appropriate years. The future tax levies
are subject to cancellation when and if the City has provided alternative sources of financing. The City Council is required to levy any
additional taxes found necessary for full payment of principal and interest.
These future scheduled tax levies are not shown as assets in the accompanying financial statements at December 31, 2008. Future
scheduled tax levies for all bonds outstanding at December 31, 2008 totaled $25,255,649.

Note B MODIFIED APPROACH FOR CITY STREETS AND TRAILS INFRASTRUCTURE CAPITAL ASSETS
In accordance with GASB Statement No. 34, the City is required to account for and report infrastructure capital assets. The City defines
infrastructure as the basic physical assets including the street and trail system; water treatment and distribution system; wastewater
collection system; park and recreation lands and improvement system; storm water conveyance system; and building combined with site
amenities such as parking and landscape areas used by the City in the conduct of its business. Each major infrastructure can be divided
into subsystems. For example, the street and trail system can be divided into pavement widths, curb type and sidewalk. City owned
streets could further be classified as collector or local. Subsystem detail is not presented in these basic financial statements; however, the
City maintains detailed information on these subsystems.
The City has elected to use the modified approach as defined in GASB Statement No. 34 for infrastructure reporting for its Pavement
Management Program. Under GASB Statement No. 34, eligible infrastructure capital assets are not required to be depreciated under the
following requirements:
1)The City manages the eligible infrastructure capital assets using an asset management system with characteristics of (1) an up
to-date inventory; (2) perform condition assessments and summarize the results using a measurement scale; and (3) estimate
annual amount to maintain and preserve at the established condition assessment level.
2) The City documents that the eligible infrastructure capital assets are being preserved approximately at or above the established
and disclosed condition assessment level.
In the fall of 2008, the City conducted a physical condition assessment of the streets and trails constructed since 1974. This assessment
will be performed every three years. Each street and trail segment was assigned a physical condition based on potential defects. An
Overall Condition Index (OCI) was assigned to each street and trail and expressed in a continuous scale from 0 to 100, where 0 is
assigned to the least acceptable physical condition and 100 is assigned the physical characteristics of a new street or trail. The following
conditions were defined:

NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
December 31, 2008
As of December 31, 2008, the City’s street and trail system was rated at an OCI index of 80 on the average with detail condition as
follows:
% of Street
Conditionand Trail
s
Excellent to Good91.0%
Fair5.5%
Poor to Substandard3.5%
The City’s streets and trails are constantly deteriorating resulting from the following factors: (1) traffic using the system; (2) the sun’s
ultra-violet rays drying out and breaking down the top layer of pavement; (3) utility company/private development trenching operations;
(4) water damage from natural precipitation; and (5) frost heave. The City is continuously taking actions to prolong the life of the
system through short-term maintenance activities such as pothole patching, crack sealing, seal coating and overlaying. The City
expended $2,244,713 on street and trail maintenance for the year ending December 31, 2008. These expenditures delayed deterioration;
however, the overall condition of the system was not improved through these maintenance expenditures. The City has estimated that the
amount of annual expenditures required to maintain the City’s street and trail system at the average OCI rating of good is approximately
$1,150,000.

of its Pavement Management Program.

Notes:
Details regarding the City's outstanding debt can be found in the notes to the financial statements.
(1) Operating expenses includes transfers out because the administrative allocation and replacement reserve transfer
is built into the user fees. Operating expenses does not include interest and depreciation.
(2) The transfer in is included because a portion of the trunk connection charge associated with adding additional users to the water
system is designated to compensate prior years capital investment in water utility infrastructure and the treatment plant.
(3) Half of the facility financed by these bonds is leased to the Greater Minneapolis YMCA, their lease payments start
in 2008. Future YMCA lease payments will significantly reduce the City's obligation on debt service payments.
(4) Net of crossover refundings.
(5) Starting in 2008, all tax increment revenues will now be receipted in the Tax Increment Projects Capital Projects Fund and
transferred over as needed to make the debt service payments. In 2008, the debt service fund had sufficient funds to make
its debt service payment.
