KELLUM, III, CPA 3825 LORNA ROAD, SUITE 212 HOOVER, ALABAMA (205) CHARLES W. HULLETT, CPA ( ) INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the City Council City of Jasper, Alabama Report on Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, the aggregate remaining fund information, and the budgetary comparison for the General Fund of the City of Jasper, Alabama (the "City"), as of and for the year ended, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors' Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit We did not audit the financial statements of the Jasper City Board of Education and the Industrial Development Board of the City of Jasper, which represent 1 00 percent of the assets, net position, and revenues of the component unit columns. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Jasper City Board of Education and the Industrial Development Board of the City of Jasper, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

4 An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Opinions In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City, as of, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Change in Accounting Principle As described in Note 10 to the financial statements, during the year ending, the City adopted new accounting guidance, GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions an amendment of GASB Statement No. 27. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion and analysis, the Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability, and the Schedule of Employer Contributions as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We and other auditors have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City s basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations, and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements.

5 The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated September 15, 2016, on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

6 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 As management of the City of Jasper, Alabama (the City"), we present this narrative overview and analysis designed to assist readers of the City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, Our discussion and analysis focuses on significant financial issues, provides an overview of the City's financial activity, identifies changes in the City's financial position, identifies any material deviations from the financial plan (the approved budget), and identifies individual fund issues or concerns. Financial Highlights The assets of the City exceed its liabilities at the close of the fiscal year ended, by $10,405,830 (net position). The portion of net position that may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors (unrestricted net position) reflects a deficit of ($7,447,976). The deficit is primarily the result of the reporting of the OPEB obligation as required by GASB No. 45 and the pension requirements of GASB 68 (Note 9). The City's total net position increased by $355,650 in fiscal The factor that most influenced this increase was the City's success in reducing operational costs, expansion of sales tax revenue, and obtaining grant revenue. The City's total net capital assets increased by $23,947,794 in fiscal This increase was mainly attributable to ongoing construction of the new high school. As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $34,517,237, a decrease of $21,281,265 from the prior year. Of this amount, ($4,160,631) is available for spending at the City's discretion (unassigned fund balances). The 2014 bond issue funds are to be used to pay the construction liabilities. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance of the General Fund (the City's primary operating fund) was $935,482. The City's net long-term debt increased by $3,395,883, or 5.70%, primarily from the new 2015 bond issue. Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's financial statements, which is comprised of the basic financial statements and the notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves

7 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 Government-Wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with an overview of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The statement of net position presents information on all of the City's assets and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net position. This statement combines governmental funds' current financial resources with capital assets and long-term obligations. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating. The statement of activities presents information focused on functions and shows how the City's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. This is intended to summarize and simplify the user's analysis of revenue and expenses of various governmental services and/or subsidies to various businesstype activities. All changes in net position 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 employee leave). Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to typically recover all or a significant portion of the cost of operation, including depreciation, through user fees and charges for services (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, recreation and cultural services, and nondepartmental. The business-type activities of the City reflect private sector type operations and include cemeteries and garbage services. The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the primary government), but also the activities of its component units, the Jasper City Board of Education and the Industrial Development Board of the City of Jasper, Alabama. A component unit is a legally separate organization over which the City can exercise influence and/or may be obligated to provide financial subsidies. The focus of the statements is clearly on the primary government and the presentation allows the readers to address the City's relative relationship with the component units. The Board of Education and the Industrial Development Board issue complete financial statements, which may be obtained by contacting the entities directly. Fund Financial Statements Traditional users of governmental financial statements will find the Fund Financial Statements presentation more familiar. The focus is on the City's major funds rather than the City as a whole. 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, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. Governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary are the three categories of fund types

8 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 Fund Financial Statements Continued Governmental Funds The City of Jasper maintains four 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 General Fund, Walker High Construction Fund, 2014 Bond Issue Fund, and the 2015 Bond Issue Fund. Data from other governmental funds are combined into a single nonmajor governmental funds aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report. For management control of expenditures, the City adopts an annual appropriated budget for all funds. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided as required supplementary information for the City's major governmental funds to demonstrate compliance with their budgets. Proprietary Funds The City of Jasper maintains three proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to provide for separate information for the two cemeteries and the garbage services, each of which is considered a major fund of the City. 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 City programs. Notes to the Financial Statements The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. Other Information In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning budgetary comparisons and the City's progress in funding its obligations to provide pension benefits to its employees. The combining fund statements and schedules are presented immediately following the required supplementary information and the single audit section represents the last section of this report

Of this amount, $49,241,003 is accounted for by capital assets, which includes infrastructure. Of the remaining City assets, $42,971,364 is accounted for in cash and cash equivalents, $653,192 in accounts receivable, $24,300 in liens receivable, and the remainder spread among miscellaneous assets. At, the City had outstanding liabilities of $83,954,404, of which $74,422,665 was longterm. Long-term liabilities include warrants and notes payable, compensated absences, accrued landfill closure and post closure care costs, pension liabilities, and the OPEB obligation. Of the total amount outstanding, approximately $3,123,720 was due within one year, with the remainder due at various dates before Included in other liabilities in the above table are $7,815,455 in accounts payable (most of which will be paid from bond funds) and $248,785 in accrued interest payable. The largest portion of the City's net position reflects its investment in capital assets, less any outstanding related debt used to acquire those assets. The City's capital assets are used to provide services to citizens. Consequently, investments in capital assets are not available for future spending. Although the City's investment in 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. The remaining unrestricted net position reflect a deficit of ($7,447,976). This deficit is primarily the result of recording the OPEB obligation of $850,590 and pension liability of $8,074,277 (See Note 10)

11 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 Fund Financial Analysis Governmental Funds The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. The total general fund balance increased by $168,456 in 2015 to $1,273,439. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance was $935,482. As a measure of the general fund's liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. This is very useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. Unassigned fund balance represents approximately 5.38% of total general fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 7.32% of the total general fund expenditures. Enterprise Funds The City operates the New Prospect Cemetery and the North Oakhill Cemetery. Lots are sold for $250 each at New Prospect and $600 each at North Oakhill. The City normally charges New Prospect $1,000 for each mowing. The cemeteries will generally operate with a small profit each year, largely as a result of interest income from a certificate of deposit owned by North Oakhill Cemetery. This year New Prospect Cemetery recorded loss from operations of $370 and North Oakhill Cemetery recorded income from operations of $26,551. The City also operates a garbage collection service for the citizens of the City. Current year income from operations was $102,273. Budgetary Highlights The following is a brief review of the budgeting changes from the original to the final budget for the General Fund. Certain departments increased repairs and maintenance due to overages. Sales tax revenue was increased due to the passing of an additional one-cent tax.

13 MANAGEMENT S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS SEPTEMBER 30, 2015 Economic Factors The City of Jasper is largely dependent upon its sales tax revenue for growth in income. In periods of economic decline, the City is faced with increasing taxes, licenses, or user charges as a means to increase revenue or reducing expenses in the form of reductions in services or employee reductions.

26 Notes to Financial Statements NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Reporting Entity The City of Jasper, Alabama (the "City'), operates under a Mayor-Council form of government. The City's major operations include police and fire protection, parks, library and recreation, public works, and general administrative services. In addition, the City owns and operates two cemeteries. The City's financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP') as applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ("GASB") is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The GASB periodically updates its codification of the existing Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards which, along with subsequent GASB pronouncements (Statements and Interpretations), constitutes the ultimate authority on GAAP for state and local governmental units. The more significant accounting policies established by GAAP and used by the City are discussed below. As required by GAAP, these financial statements present the City and its component units, legally separate entities for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. The City has no blended component units. On the other hand, the City does have two discretely presented component units. The Jasper City Board of Education has a September 30 year-end, and the Industrial Development Board of the City of Jasper, Alabama, has a December 31 year-end. Jasper City Board of Education Five members of the Board of Education are appointed by the City and the Board of Education as an agency of the State of Alabama under the general supervision and financial jurisdiction of the Alabama State Department of Education. The City is obligated in some manner for the debt of the Board of Education and the City levies a sales tax specifically for operations of the Board of Education. Complete financial statements for the Jasper City Board of Education may be obtained at the following administrative office: Jasper City Board of Education, th Street West, P.O. Box 500, Jasper, Alabama Industrial Development Board of the City of Jasper, Alabama The Industrial Development Board members are appointed by the City and the City is obligated in some manner for the debt of the Industrial Development Board. Complete financial statements for the Industrial Development Board may be obtained at the following administrative office: Industrial Development Board, P.O. Box 972, Jasper, Alabama Related Organizations The City is also responsible for appointing a voting majority of the boards of other organizations, but the City's financial accountability for these organizations does not extend beyond making the appointments, or the financial resources and obligations of these organizations are immaterial. The City appointed a voting majority of the following boards: Jasper Water Works and Sewer Board, Inc., City of Jasper Library Board, City of Jasper Housing Authority, City of Jasper Board of Zoning Adjustments, City of Jasper Housing Authority, and City of Jasper Medical and Public Building Authority. These organizations are related organizations, which have not been included in the reporting entity
