September 30, 2001
The Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
City of Brentwood
Brentwood, California 94513
Dear Mayor McPoland and Members of the City Council:
I am pleased to submit the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report ( CAFR) of the City of Brentwood, California for the fiscal year ended June
30, 2001. This report was prepared in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America as established by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB).
Background
The City of Brentwood is located halfway between the cities of San Francisco and Sacramento at the eastern end of Contra Costa County. The
City is governed by a five ( 5) member City Council, under the Council – Manager form of government. As of June 30, 2001, the City has a
current population of approximately 26,000 and encompasses approximately 13.73 square miles. Brentwood was incorporated in 1948 as a
general law city under the laws of the State of California.

City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR x
This report is presented in three sections:
Introductory: The Introductory Section includes this transmittal letter, the City’s organizational chart, maps, table of contents, and a list
of the principal public officials and administrative personnel.
Financial: The Financial Section includes the independent auditor’s report, the general purpose financial statements and related notes
thereto, and the combining and individual fund and account group financial statements and schedules.
Statistical: The Statistical Section includes selected financial and demographic information, generally presented on a multi- year basis.
The Government Finance Officers Association ( GFOA) offers a recognition program for public entities to determine whether the City conforms to
the highest level of financial reporting standards. If a city qualifies, a Certificate of Achievement is awarded for a period of one year. The City
believes this report conforms to Certificate of Achievement program requirements, and the City is submitting it to the GFOA to determine its
eligibility. It is our goal to be awarded this Certificate because it demonstrates that the City conforms to a high level of financial reporting
standards, which may improve the City’s future bond rating with the debt investment community.
Reporting Entity
This report reflects reporting as a single entity for all operations directly associated and controlled by the City. In addition to reporting directly for
the City operations, two component units, the Brentwood Redevelopment Agency and Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority, have been
included in the primary reporting entity. The Brentwood Redevelopment Agency is organized under the State of California Community
Redevelopment Law. The Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority is a joint powers authority between the City and the Authority. The
primary purpose of the Authority is to render financial assistance to the City and the Agency by issuing debt and financing the construction of
public facilities. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the governments operations and so data
from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Each of the blended components has a June 30 year- end.
Accounting for all the City’s activities is centralized under the Department of Finance. The department has been delegated the responsibility for
maintaining the integrity of City’s recorded financial data. In fulfilling this responsibility, the Finance Department has prepared the accompanying
financial statements. In our professional judgment, these statements fairly and accurately reflect the financial position of the City and the results
of its operations.
This financial report includes all of the City’s funds and account groups. The City provides a full range of services. These services include police
services, public works, economic development, planning, engineering and inspection services, parks and recreation, and general administrative
services. The City also operates a public water and wastewater utility, as well as refuse collection, which includes disposal and a recycling
program.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xi
Economic Condition and Outlook
Until recently, Brentwood was a small rural agricultural community. The need for housing in the Bay Area in the early 1990’ s prompted
Brentwood’s growth at a rate of between 10% to 15% per year. The City’s population has increased steadily over the last fiscal year as predicted,
and the development of single- family homes, commercial sites and infrastructure reflects the increase in this expanding population.
The City issued an unprecedented 1,483 building permits for single- family homes during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001. To keep up with
the growth demands, infrastructure also was at a high level with several projects at various stages of design, construction or completion for the
year.
Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 saw positive economic news for the City of Brentwood with growth in population, residential construction, sales and median
prices, and rapidly accelerating commercial/ industrial development as follows:

These pictures portray one of the latest additions to the City of
Brentwood’s planned communities. This Subdivision includes a wide
range of family oriented activities including an 18- hole championship golf
course, future clubhouse with restaurant, a park area for play and a large
park including multi- sports facilities at the southwest corner of the
community. ( Pictured left).
Financial Data
Providing reliable financial information requires the establishment of accounting records adequately supported by systems of internal control. The
City’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the City’s assets are
protected from loss, theft, or misuse. They must also ensure that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable assurance
that these objectives are met, while recognizing that this assurance is not absolute. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: ( 1) the
cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and ( 2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xiii
management. City administration believes the existing internal control systems are adequate to provide this reasonable assurance that City assets
are safeguarded against loss and that financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets.
Furthermore, the City received the first “ Unqualified” Audit this past year. This was due to the Asset Valuation Study that accurately identified all
the City’s assets, thus allowing the auditors to identify those assets. This is the first step toward the City’s requirement of maintaining an up to
date inventory program. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) adopted a number of significant changes now commonly called
GASB 34 or, the “ new accounting model”. Assets must now be valued and capitalized in the new reporting model. Implementation for
Brentwood will begin July 1, 2001.
The accompanying financial statements have been examined by Vavrinek, Trine, Day and Co., LLP, Certified Public Accountants. The firm was
engaged by the City Council to render an opinion on the City’s financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America.
The City Council is responsible for:
1. Assuring that City administration fulfills its responsibilities in the preparation of the financial statements; and
2. Engaging the certified public accountants with whom the City Council reviews the scope of the audits and the accounting principles to be
applied in financial reporting.
To ensure complete independence, Vavrinek, Trine, Day and Co., LLP has full and free access to meet with the City Council to discuss the results
of their assessment of the adequacy of internal accounting controls and the quality of financial reporting.
The City also maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in
the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. Activities of the general fund, special revenue funds, debt service funds,
enterprises, and capital projects funds are included in the annual appropriated budget, except the Bypass Authority, JPA Capital Projects, and the
Capital Improvement Funding Programs. The level of budgetary control is established at the fund level. The City also maintains an encumbrance
accounting system as one technique for accomplishing budgetary control.
These budgets reflect an organization whose top priorities continue to be:
• Provide and build public facilities
• Provide and maintain an adequate public infrastructure
• Plan and manage growth to maintain and enhance our small town character
• Enhance and promote Brentwood’s economic vitality
• Provide friendly customer service
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xiv
The Operating Budget maintains a stable financial environment for the City of Brentwood. The decisions made in the budget process emphasize
the City Council’s Goals and Objectives. Staff will continue to pursue all means available to achieve the City’s Mission Statement:
The City of Brentwood is dedicated to creating, maintaining and enhancing a well- planned community
that is friendly, safe and healthy for everyone.
Mission Statement Adopted January 5, 2001.
The City’s accounting records are maintained on the Accrual Basis, or Modified Accrual Basis, as appropriate. Budgets are prepared and
expenditures recorded at the object of expenditure level. A thorough explanation of the City’s funds as of June 30, 2001, and the results of each
fund’s operation for the year, are presentated in the financial section of this report.
LOCAL ECONOMY
Retail
Economic Development activity continues to accelerate in the City of Brentwood. National
retailers have recognized a critical mass of 155,000 people in our trade area. Brentwood will
support approximately 1.2 M square feet of new retail space in the next eighteen months. This
will provide convenient goods and services for our residents, reduce regional traffic load and
retain sales tax revenues in our area. Brentwood has several excellent sites properly zoned
with available infrastructure in the epicenter of the trade area and welcomes all interested
parties. The Fiscal Impact of National Retailers located in Brentwood is at least $ 2.50 per
square foot in annual sales tax revenue.
Brentwood’s Central Business District is thriving with a zero vacancy rate. Several new
businesses that have opened in the past two years focus on food, wine, and specialty shopping,
greatly enhancing the Downtown ambience. The newly restored marquee on the Delta Cinema
was funded by the City’s Redevelopment Agency as a public art project and serves as a
historic Downtown landmark.
In an effort to support the City’s Family Aquatic Center and Skate Park, the Economic Development Department embarked on a request for
proposal and qualifications to develop the adjacent corner site with specialty and themed retail shops and restaurants with a ground lease to
generate sufficient funds to offset the operating costs of the park.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xv
As the City passed the 25,000- population threshold, major commercial developers as well as nationally recognized retailers took note. The City’s
demographics are attractive to retailers such as Home Depot and Target who are preparing to open stores on Lone Tree Way in late 2002. More
major retailers are proceeding through the entitlement process, which promises to strengthen the already bright economic future for the City.
Commercial / Industrial
Brentwood’s Economic Development Department led the $ 4M adaptive re- use effort to renovate a 34,500 square foot location vacated by Lucky’s
grocery store to accommodate a local Los Medanos College Campus and a Business and Technology Incubator that will open October 1, 2001.
The LMC campus, in conjunction with other educational institutions, will provide our residents a full range of higher educational opportunities
and our local businesses employee training programs. The Business and Technology Center provides high quality office space with a state of the
art voice over Internet protocol network and 3- megabit bandwidth at an affordable cost and a monthly rental term. The Incubator provides start- up
businesses with a place to produce, mature, and increase our basic economy.
Future Outlook – Commercial / Industrial
Brentwood’s vacancy rate for Office, Flex- Tech and Light Industrial space remains below 2%
reflecting a prospering business community. We have approximately 350,000 square feet of approved
projects represented in all three categories. Two of these projects are in construction and two more
will break ground next spring. Growth in the Office, Flex- Tech and Light Industrial categories has a
“ direct” fiscal impact because it creates jobs in the basic economy, bringing new money into the
community through trade and commerce outside our local economy. Basic economy business growth
also has a significant “ indirect” fiscal impact because new money expenditures in the local economy
does not stop with the “ direct” impact. Money that employees and businesses spend in the community
has a multiplier effect by introducing the new money into the local economy. A recent analysis
prepared by McGill Martin Self, Inc. for a proposed project in Brentwood found that every dollar
spent in Brentwood by employees and businesses resulted in $ 1.638 dollars traded in the local
economy.
The Economic Development and Engineering Departments teamed together to manage the
development of the 131.7- acre property the City owns on Sunset Road. The Master Plan includes a
49.2 ac. tertiary Wastewater Treatment Plant, 2.7 ac. Solid Waste Plant, 13.3 ac. Corporation Yard,
37.7 ac. Sports Park and a 28.8 Medium Industrial Park. This multi- use project provides the City with
significant and expandable public works facilities as well as a lighted sports complex. The Medium
Industrial Park provides affordable sites for uses needed by the City but undesirable in most locations.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xvi
Commercial development projects continue to thrive and are being built to serve new and existing residents. There are many desirable areas of
interest by commercial developers and builders. Some of these areas include, but are not limited to, the Lone Tree Way and Sand Creek Road
Corridors, Balfour Road, Highway 4, Harvest Park Area, and the Northwest Quadrant adjacent to the Highway 4 Bypass project.
DEVELOPMENT / GROWTH INITIATIVES
Completed Projects:
Brentwood Family Aquatic Complex –
Opened in September, 2000, with 30,000+
participants using the facility in the first year of
operation. The aquatic complex was
recognized by the California Park and
Recreation Society with an Award of
Excellence for Facility Design and is
considered the jewel of the City of Brentwood
Park and Recreation system.
The complex provides recreational swimming, swim lessons, recreational/ competitive swim, lap swim and exercise programs. It is also used as
the home site of the Liberty High School water polo and swim teams. In addition, the complex is available for rental for community events and
hosts a variety of local and regional swim meets and water polo matches on a regular basis.
With the high energy demands necessary to operate this complex, the City is moving forward with many energy saving ideas including by- pass
timers for lights, which will reduce the overall wattage output in the parking lot and consideration of a co- generation plant on site that would
provide electricity and heat for the pool.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xvii
First Street Parking Lot - Twenty additional parking spaces were a nice addition to the
downtown area. ( Pictured here).
Brentwood Boulevard Reconstruction - Added an additional travel lane, curb, gutter,
sidewalk, and drainage modifications, which gave a lift to the workability and appeal of this
commercial location between Spruce Street and Central Boulevard/ Sycamore Street.
Marsh Creek Trail Undercrossing - Paving of this trail section made a much- needed
connection under a busy arterial boulevard. This trail is part of the regional trail system and
can now be used all year round for biking, walking, or skating.
Annual Pavement Management Program ( PMP) - As part of the City’s preventative
maintenance program, the streets are surveyed to determine where reconstruction,
overlaying, surface sealing, and crack sealing is needed. Various streets are repaired each
year.
Oak and Third Street Improvements - This intersection, which is located directly adjacent to City Hall, a high school and a bustling downtown,
experiences a great deal of traffic volume. As part of a safety measure this intersection was converted to a four way stop that also includes ADA
( Americans with Disabilities Act) standard curb ramps, planter areas, crosswalks, signage and striping. This project significantly helped to
improve traffic control in this area.
Redevelopment Agency Projects: The Agency approved expenditures of housing set- aside funds, coupled with CDBG funds, for the Utility
Connection Assistance Program. This program provides zero- interest loans to connect water and wastewater lines for low and very low- income
homeowners in nine target areas. Other infrastructure improvements authorized by the Agency included water and wastewater line improvements
for health and safety purposes in Lone Tree Way and Brentwood Boulevard area and also in the Davis Camp area where failure of a substandard
private septic system servicing 17 very- low and low- income households resulted in an emergency condition. The approval of matching funds to
supplement CDBG funds provided thirty new and replacement street lights in the Village Drive neighborhood to eliminate conditions that
jeopardized the health and safety of the residents.
The Agency authorized the purchase of two lots for the construction of 32 additional parking spaces in downtown area to facilitate expansion of
existing businesses and attraction of new businesses. The Agency also approved a grant for the restoration and rehabilitation of certain historical
signs within the downtown area.
The purchase of a one- acre lot at 159 Sycamore Avenue to remove an existing blighted condition is now held for resale and development of a for-sale
town home development to be made available to and occupied by residents and workers of Brentwood.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xviii
Lastly, the Agency commenced a plan amendment process to add territory to the North Brentwood Redevelopment Area, commonly referred to
as the Sunset Industrial Complex, to facilitate the reuse of existing light and heavy industrial uses along Brentwood Boulevard in an effort to
eliminate conditions of blight.
Current Projects and Projects Under Construction:
Balfour Road Expansion - One of the projects that resulted from Brentwood’s growth rate is the Balfour Road Expansion. This two- lane country
road was expanded to four lanes from the Highway 4 Bypass to the westerly City limits and completed in July 2001. Completion of this project
will be the first four lane east- west road from one end of the City to the other.
Wastewater Treatment Plant 5MGD Expansion ( pictured right) - This project will
expand the City’s wastewater treatment capabilities from 2 million gallons per day
( mgd) to 5 mgd. This expansion will completely replace the City’s existing plant of
which portions date back to the early 1940’ s with a state of the art facility. This new
facility is currently scheduled for operations beginning July of 2002.
Well # 14 - This project will expand the City’s water production capabilities by
approximately 1.3 million gallons per day. This will provide additional supplies for a
growing City as well as provide reliability for the existing customers. This project is
anticipated to be complete by late 2001.
Zone II Reservoir - This addition of a 2 million gallon reservoir will provide additional
reliability in the City’s water system and ensure that adequate supplies are available for
peak demand times as well as emergencies.
Elevated Tank Repainting - The elevated tank is a Brentwood landmark and
represents a feel for times past. The tank is no longer utilized for water storage but
provides for the housing of wireless communication systems. This landmark can be seen from a great distance and is need of an updated look and
a fresh coat of paint. This project is slated to be complete November 2001.
Fire Station – This is a joint project between the City and the development community. The actual construction is being facilitated by a developer
while administration and coordination activities are provided by the City. This project will continue to ensure that fire safety is provided to the
residents of Brentwood. The new facility is being constructed on Balfour Road just west of the newly constructed Highway 4 Bypass.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xix
Highway 4 Bypass – This project is being constructed by the County with funding contributions made from Brentwood and surrounding
communities. The Bypass will connect Highway 4 in the City of Antioch to Vasco Road south of the City of Brentwood. This will alleviate
traffic on the older Delta Highway 4 that runs through Oakley, Brentwood and Byron and provide commuters with a direct route from Antioch to
the Tri- Delta area.
Current Projects in Design:
Sand Creek Road Central Phase I – ( Map Pictured) This project will
connect to the Highway 4 Bypass project improving east- west circulation
throughout the City. In addition to the new roadway that includes median
curbs, asphalt concrete pavement, street lights, potable and non- potable
waterlines, wastewater lines, fiber optic lines, traffic signal and a box
culvert extension of Sand Creek, it also includes a pedestrian undercrossing
for the trail system.
Brentwood Bikeway Project – The widening of Griffith Lane from
Central Boulevard to Griffith Lane will include intersection improvements.
Brentwood Boulevard Parking Lot – The construction of this lot will
provide additional downtown parking in a busy location.
Sunset Industrial Complex – The Sunset Industrial Complex is the City’s
first major Redevelopment effort intended to relocate heavy industrial uses
from Brentwood Boulevard to a more appropriate location as well as
provide additional light and medium industrial development sites. It
consists of approximately 30 acres of land adjacent to the Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Sunset Sports Complex. The project promotes the
City’s efforts to increase the jobs to housing ratio as well as improve the City’s tax base. Design is underway with construction scheduled to
commence the second quarter of 2002.
Northwest Quadrant Infrastructure – The City’s newly annexed northwest quadrant is currently undergoing intensive planning related to both
commercial as well as residential development. Infrastructure, which is virtually non- existent at this time will be financed and constructed through
an acquisition type assessment district. The district will fund approximately $ 30,000,000 worth of infrastructure consisting of roads, wastewater
lines, water lines, storm drains and parks. Construction is scheduled to break ground in the second quarter of 2002 with completion scheduled
concurrently with the opening of several major commercial projects on Lone Tree Way.

Future Projects:
An Economic Development Strategic Action Plan prepared by the Department with assistance from Gruen Gruen & Associates was adopted by
the City Council in July 2001. This Plan, which provided fundamental policy direction to the City’s General Plan Update, provides a strategic
approach to growing the City’s basic economy as well as forecasting regional retail demand and Downtown specialty retail opportunities. The
Department will also update the DDS Marketing Demographic Analysis Report in October 2001. This report has been invaluable in providing
national retailers with information from a source they find credible.
The Economic Development Department has been very active in the Inter- Regional Partnership, a State of California Economic Development
Program initiated by former Assemblyman Torlakson. Brentwood was awarded a $ 100K grant by this program in April 2001. The City has also
prepared a joint application with the City of Antioch to be designated as an Opportunity Zone. The fiscal impact of an Opportunity Zone
designation may include cash grants and special status in state programs such as tax
increment financing for infrastructure and first priority for Infrastructure Bank
financing.
New Police Facility – The new police facility is in the early stages of design. This
project will be part of the November 6, ballot as a General Obligation Bond to fund a
large part of the new facility. ( Site pictured).
Sand Creek Road East - This project is the next phase of Sand Creek Road Central and
will improve the east- west circulation throughout the City. In addition to grading,
paving, signing and striping, major portions of this project will include a railroad
crossing, traffic signal, bridge at Marsh Creek, and storm drain improvements.
Redevelopment Agency - To further its mission in the upcoming 2001- 2002 year, the
Agency will continue the identification of commercial, retail, and industrial
development programs, business assistance programs, public improvements and
facilities programs, and the assistance and participation in the expansion and
improvement of the supply of very low, low and moderate income housing. This would
include continuous efforts on the town home development at 159 Sycamore Avenue,
the processing of the plan amendment, and the sponsorship of the Utility Connection Assistance Program.
In September 2001, the Agency authorized the execution and issuance of Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds in the amount of $ 23,000,000 to
finance certain public improvements and to refund an existing outstanding bond. The Agency will consider the level of participation in the Sand
Creek Business Center and Gregory Ranch developments by reimbursing the developer a portion of the costs for roadway improvements, using
a share of the Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds proceeds. Agency staff is currently considering the assemblage of parcels in the downtown
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxi
area along with an Agency- owned parcel for a retail and restaurant center and also will embark on a downtown parking study. As part of an
industrial improvement program, the Agency will also consider the level of participation to assist the voluntary relocation of high industrial
uses from the Brentwood Boulevard area to the new Sunset Industrial Park to act as a catalyst in the removal of existing blighted conditions and to
facilitate re- use and revitalization of the area. To facilitate the success of the Sunset Industrial Park, the Agency has committed to partially fund
the realignment of Sunset Road to intersect with Brentwood Boulevard at Grant Street signal. Finally, Christian Church Homes has requested
the Agency’s assistance in constructing a second 40- unit senior apartment complex.
Parks and Recreation: The two main construction efforts are the development of the community skate park, an 18,500+ square foot park
adjacent to the aquatic complex, and the two joint- use community gymnasiums that are being built with Brentwood Union School District and
Liberty Union High School District. The two largest planning efforts are the Balfour Road Park, with eight- plus acres of open space parkland that
will complete the aquatic complex property, and the expansion of Sunset Park Sports complex from 10 acres to 37 acres.
Financing Future Infrastructure
Capital Improvement Financing Programs: Capital Improvement Financing Programs ( CIFP) are a mechanism through which the City and the
Development Community cooperate to fund and construct major Master Planned and Sub- Master Planned infrastructure ( roads, water and
wastewater lines, regional drainage facilities, etc.). The City is able to obtain very low interest rates through its outstanding financial reputation
and bonds are sold using the participating Developer’s property as the collateral. There is no risk involved for the city as a 3 to 1 value to lien
ratio is used to determine the amount of bonds to be sold. As the properties develop, the bonds are repaid by the new property owner over a 30-
year period.
The most recent CIFP the City has funded was CIFP 2000- 1 where a total of $ 12,740,000 in bonds was sold with a total of seven participating
Developers. These funds were used to construct and/ or improve existing roadways such as Fairview Avenue or construct neighborhood parks such
as the park located just east of Walnut Boulevard.
The city is currently working with the development community to form another CIFP that will fund the major infrastructure required to facilitate
the expected growth in the northwest portion of the City. This CIFP is commonly being referred to as the Northwest Quadrant CIFP or CIFP
2001- 1. It is anticipated that this CIFP will provide the funds necessary to construct the ultimate improvements on Lone Tree Way, Fairview
Avenue realignment, Heidorn Rand Road and possibly Empire Avenue. It is currently established that these improvements will require between
30 and 40 million dollars to construct.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxii
COMMUNITY PROGRAMS
The City’s Administrative functions are expanding to fill the ever- growing needs of the community. The establishment of an Economic
Development Director, full- time Redevelopment Coordinator, and a Project Manager for Economic Development projects are the result of the City
recognizing the needs in these areas. The goal is to secure and strengthen the long- term economic vitality of the City. The City is pioneering the
areas of paperless agendas for Council meetings for the public, staff and City Council, as well as recording meeting minutes and publishing voting
results over the Internet. The City has also introduced new conveniences for its residents through establishing passport application and processing
services at City Hall. Future plans call for the expansion of the City’s grant writing efforts that will increase to citywide from what has been an
engineering effort for infrastructure. The challenge for this grant writing effort is not to lose the very successful infrastructure effort while
expanding the scope.
The City Attorney position was created in March 2000. The growing demand for legal advice has mirrored the city’s growth and associated
demand for more and better government services. The City Attorney provides legal advice to Council members, boards and commissions and
departments on a daily basis as well as prepares a variety of legal documents, such as contracts, ordinances, resolutions and memoranda. The City
Attorney is part of the City’s management team and is pro- active in a collegial team- oriented atmosphere.
The Planning Division of the Community Development Department facilitated multiple Working Group meetings on the General Plan Update,
completing the EIR and concluding two years of incredible work, which will meet the City Council’s goals for job generation and growth
management, with the adoption of the General Plan Update in November of 2001. The Governor’s Office recognized the work on this project as
“ outstanding.” The Department completed an innovative Growth Management Program, and took the John Muir Medical Center project through
the Planning Commission and City Council processes to approval. They successfully adopted, against all odds, a highly regarded and creative
Agricultural Preservation Program. They completed processing the AIG Baker Shopping Center in record- breaking time. Plans for almost 1,450
single- family dwellings were reviewed and approved and 469,515 square feet of commercial projects were taken through the planning process.
Staff also processed five annexations through LAFCO, adding over 1,000 acres to the City’s boundaries.
Parks and Recreation Division, in addition to traditional recreation programs and activities, the City of Brentwood merged with the Brentwood
Community Center/ senior programs of the Delta Community Services, Incorporated to establish a senior services component. This component
includes rental and administrative services for the Brentwood Community Center. The City of Brentwood also merged the Village Drive Resource
Center into the Recreation Division - a center that provides prevention and social services to a large segment of the population. The City of
Brentwood also established the Park and Recreation Commission, the Youth Commission, and the Arts Commission, which are staffed and
supported by the Parks and Recreation Department. These three commissions provide expertise and recommendations to City Council on a wide
range of park, recreation, youth, and cultural issues. In addition, development of a citywide maintenance contract brought parks, roadway
mediums, and lighting and landscape districts under a single department.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxiii
The Brentwood Police Department has adopted a philosophy of community policing and instituted various programs to support that philosophy.
Some of these programs are D. A. R. E., Neighborhood Watch, National Night Out, Red Ribbon Week, Vacation Watch, bicycle helmet program,
and Tell- A- Cop. To support these programs, they work very hard to keep as many officers " on the street" as possible. Unlike some cities,
Brentwood officers respond to every call for service. The Department has not adopted and has no intention of adopting a " mail in" report process.
Two School Resource Officers are co- funded by grants, the school districts and the Police Department. Two officers are assigned to motorcycles
for traffic enforcement and accident prevention. We have implemented a bicycle patrol program, conduct DUI checkpoints, and join with other
agencies on countywide drunk driving abatement programs.
B. A. C. U. P. ( Brentwood Active Citizens Uniformed Patrol) is a volunteer program made up of private citizens who assist the Police Department in
many tasks. They work everyday at the Department in the office, managing the radar trailer deployment program, removing unsightly signs,
reporting graffiti for removal, assisting on special events at assigned traffic posts, and performing minor repairs at the police building.
The Police Chaplain program is an extension of the B. A. C. U. P. Volunteer program. Chaplains volunteer their time to support officers, their
families, and citizens in times of crisis.
Youth activities focus on giving kids positive alternatives to decision making including the PAL program and the Explorer Scout program. Some
children make mistakes and the Youth and Family Services diversion program holds them accountable, but allows juveniles to avoid having a
criminal record by diverting from the criminal justice system.
During the last few years, much time and planning has been put into creating a Community Service Officer program. Civilians are hired, trained,
and deployed to perform many of the non- confrontational tasks that officers have traditionally been assigned. CSO's take minor crime and
accident reports, issue parking citations, remove abandoned vehicles, transport non- violent prisoners, and manage the evidence storage program.
Neighborhood Clean- Up Days – Currently there are eight neighborhood clean- up days staffed by the Community Development Department,
enhancing civic pride in our neighborhoods.

The City’s overall revenues in Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 increased by $ 14,554,923 or 51.90% from the previous year.
The increase in taxes is primarily due to the increase in sales tax ( 12.01%), transient occupancy tax ( 30.88%) and an increase in property tax
( 23.69%). Permits and Fines have decreased due to the reallocating developer fees from this category to charges for other services. The majority
of this increase in revenues was from additional building permits collected as a result of the record level of development during the year.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxv
General Governmental Expenditures
For Fiscal Year 2000/ 01, expenditures ( by functional classification) in the general, special revenue, debt service, and capital projects funds, were
as follows:
The City’s overall expenditures in Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 increased by $ 4,973,247 or 13.30% from the previous year. The increase is mainly due to
the building of infrastructure, personnel costs, and an increase in settlement claims paid. The increase in general government is due to increases
in personnel costs and settlement claims paid by the City. The increase in public works is due to the increase of contractual maintenance, utilities
and personnel costs. The increase in public safety is due to the increase of personnel costs.

City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxvi
Debt Administration
At June 30, 2001, the City and its component units, the Brentwood Redevelopment Agency and Brentwood Financing Authority, had three debt
issues outstanding as described in the Notes to the Financial Statements. In addition, the City administers debt for six Special Assessment
Districts whose bonds are not obligations of the City.
Cash Management
The City invests temporarily idle cash in accordance with the Government Code and a formal investment policy approved by the City Council.
This policy limits investments to certain types of instruments and requires that investments must meet established criteria for safety, liquidity and
yield. As of June 30, 2001, investments ( not including investments with fiscal agent) totaled $ 70.5 million of which $ 28.5 was invested in the
California State Local Agency Investment Fund ( LAIF) and $ 41.5 in other investments managed by Public Financial Management ( PFM). The
portfolio managed by Public Financial Management is in full compliance with California Government Code Section 53601 and the City’s
investment policy.
The City’s investment policy is to minimize credit and market risks while maintaining a competitive yield on its portfolio. Accordingly, deposits
were either insured by federal depository insurance or collateralized, with all collateral held either by the City, its agent, or a financial institution’s
trust department in the City’s name. All investments held by the government during the year and at June 30, 2001, are classified in the category of
lowest credit risk as defined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board.
Enterprise Operations
The City’s enterprise operations are comprised of Wastewater, Water, Solid Waste, Parks and Recreation, and City Rentals Operations. The
Wastewater Enterprise activity is comprised of three programs: Operations, Capital, and Replacement. Wastewater is awaiting the completion
of their new treatment facility that will increase capacity to 5.5 million gallons/ day ( MGD) from its current permitted level of 2.2 MGD.
Expansion is available to over 10 MGD to allow for the expected growth in the City toward build out. As demonstrated in the financial statements
of this report, the wastewater activity, as a whole, remained in sound financial condition for the year ended June 30, 2001. The combined net
income for the Wastewater Enterprise was $ 4,682,133; most of this increase is due to developer fees.
The Water Enterprise ended the year with a net income of $ 1,909,324. The City has aggressively pursued a meter- reading system for the whole
City. The whole service area is now serviced by handheld radio- read meters, providing staff with a fast, efficient and accurate system.
Wastewater and Water rate studies will be conducted during the summer of 2001 for implementation before the end of the year. These rate
studies, once adopted, along with implementation of a SCADA System, should bring the Enterprise budgets under control and predictable.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxvii
The Solid Waste Enterprise has been a real success story for the City. The City took over the service from a private hauler in 1994 and began
providing service with the existing rate structure. The City, while having to provide significant initial capital investment, has provided a superior
level of service and maintained a positive cash flow without increasing its fees in eight years. Solid Waste continues to focus on improving its
efficiency while achieving state- mandated AB939 recycling goals of 50% in the coming years. The Solid Waste Enterprise ended the year with a
net income of $ 566,663.
Fiscal year 2000/ 01 was the second fiscal year for the department of Parks and Recreation, a department that was established on July 31, 1999.
The California Park and Recreation Society recognized the department with three Awards of Excellence: for development of the Youth
Commission Logo, the design of the Family Aquatic Complex, and the “ Team R & R” marketing program. “ Team R & R” also received a special
Creating Community Award of Distinction for its innovation and community awareness, one of only three awards given throughout the State of
California. This operation ended the year with a net income of $ 6,346,250. Most of this is due to developer fees.
The City Rental Enterprise administers the daily operations of the newly constructed Brentwood Technology Center. At year end the net income
is ($ 30,514), due to the building of the Technology Center. Rental income started August 2001.
Risk Management
The City has initiated a limited risk management program for workers’ compensation and general liability. As part of this comprehensive plan,
resources are being accumulated in a fund balance reserve to meet potential losses. In addition, various risk control techniques, including
employee accident prevention training, have been implemented during the year to minimize accident- related losses. Effective with the renewal of
excess insurance policies on May 1, 2001, and July 1, 2001, third- party coverage is currently maintained for workers’ compensation and risk
liability claims up to $ 350,000. Risk liability coverage is currently maintained and provides coverage in three tiers:
$ 5,000 deductible to $ 1 million with 18 cities in primary insurance pool;
$ 2 million excess $ 1 million in an excess self- insurance pool with 135 members;
Through the excess pool, Carma, we have reinsurance to $ 15 million. This is with Am Re and would be $ 12 million plus $ 3 million.
Total liability coverage is $ 15 million, subject to a $ 10,000 deductible.
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxviii
Independent Audit
The Government Code of the State of California requires general law cities, such as the City of Brentwood, to have its financial statements audited
by an independent certified public accountant. Accordingly, this year’s audit was completed by the accounting firm of Vavrinek, Trine, Day and
Co., LLP. In addition to meeting the requirements set forth in state statutes, the audit also was designed to meet the requirements of the Federal
Single Audit Act of 1984 and related OMB Circular A- 133. The auditor’s report on the general purpose financial statements is included in the
financial section hereof. The examination relating to the single audit was found to be under the limit and not needed for fiscal year 2000/ 01.
Acknowledgements
I wish to thank the City Council for providing clear policy direction and goals that have been used to prepare this comprehensive annual financial
report. I would also like to express my appreciation to all City of Brentwood staff members who have taken the time to participate in the
development of the report. A great deal of effort and attention to detail has gone into the preparation of this document, representing many hours of
work by staff members throughout the organization. These dedicated members assisted and contributed to its preparation. Special recognition is
given to the Finance Department staff, and specifically Denise Davies, Brenda Cappello, and Gail Leech. Their efforts made it possible to
improve the quality of the information being reported to the citizens, the City Council, and other users on a much more timely basis. Appreciation
is also expressed to the Mayor, the City Council, and the City Manager for their interest and support in planning and conducting the financial
activities of the City in a responsible and responsive manner.
The City of Brentwood has a bright future ahead because of its committed elected leadership combined with the talents and ingenuity of the
individuals within this organization. One of the key components in securing this future is through a well- planned, long- term fiscal strategy, based
upon economic development that will generate high paying, long- term employment opportunities, new and stable sales tax revenue sources and
improved intergovernmental relations.
Though the challenges are great, the City is firmly committed to meeting each and every challenge that comes our way. This comprehensive
annual financial report is the next step towards meeting those challenges. By continuing to follow the financial policy set forth by the City
Council, Brentwood will deliver the highest level of service permitted by the available resources.
Sincerely,
Pamela Ehler

30, 2001, as listed in the table of contents. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to
financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller of the United States. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the City
of Brentwood, California, as of June 30, 2001, and the results of its operations and the cash flows of its proprietary funds for the year then ended in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
General
The City of Brentwood is located halfway between the cities of San Francisco and Sacramento at the eastern end of Contra Costa County. The
City is governed by a five ( 5) member City Council under the Council– Manager form of government and provides the following services: public
safety ( police), highways and streets, sanitation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services. The City has a
current population of approximately 26,000, as of June 30, 2001, and encompasses approximately 13.73 square miles. Brentwood was
incorporated in 1948 as a general law city under the laws of the State of California.
At June 30, 2001, the City’s staff comprised 188 full- time employees who were responsible for City provided services. In addition, the City
employs approximately 100 seasonal recreation personnel.
The accounting policies of the City of Brentwood conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as
applicable to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) is the accepted standard- setting body for establishing
governmental accounting and financial reporting Principles.
A. Reporting Entity
As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these financial statements present the City of
Brentwood ( the primary government) and its component units, entities for which the government is considered financially accountable. The
City is considered to be financially accountable for an organization if the City appoints a voting majority of that organization or there is a
potential for that organization to provide specific financial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on the City. The City is also
considered to be financially accountable for an organization if the organization is fiscally dependent ( i. e., it is unable to adopt its budget, levy
taxes, set rates or charges, or issue bonded debt without approval from the City). In certain cases, other organizations are included as
component units if the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that their exclusion would cause the City’s financial
statements to be misleading or incomplete.
Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the governments operations and so data from these units
are combined with data of the primary government. Each of the blended component units discussed below have a June 30, year- end. Each of
the component units listed below meets the above- mentioned criteria.

City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 10
NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued)
Blended Component Units
• Brentwood Redevelopment Agency
The Brentwood Redevelopment Agency ( the Agency) is organized under the State of California Community Redevelopment Law. The
Agency Directors also serve as the City Council. Separate financial statements for the Redevelopment Agency may be obtained from the
City of Brentwood Finance Department.
• Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority
The Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority ( the Authority) is a joint powers authority between the City and the Authority. The
primary purpose of the Authority is to render financial assistance to the City and the Agency by issuing debt and financing the
construction of public facilities. Separate financial statements are not required for the Authority, and therefore, are not issued.
B. Fund Accounting
The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity.
The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self- balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity,
revenues and expenditures, or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based
upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activates are controlled.
The various funds are grouped in the financial statements of this report. Fund types and account groups used by the City are as follows:
Governmental Fund Types
• General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those
required to be accounted for in another fund.
• Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for proceeds of specific revenue sources ( other than major capital
projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
City of Brentwood
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2001
City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 11
NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued)
• Capital Projects Funds - Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of
major capital facilities ( other than those financed by Proprietary Funds and Trust Funds).
• Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of long- term debt
principal, interest, and related costs.
Proprietary Fund Types
• Enterprise Funds - Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations ( a) that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private
business enterprises where the intent of the governing body is that the costs, including depreciation, of providing goods or services to the
general public on a continuing basis, be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or ( b) where the governing body has
decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/ or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance,
public policy, management control, accountability, or other purposes.
• Internal Service Funds – Internal Service Funds account for the financing of goods, services, or facilities provided by one City department
to other City departments on a cost- reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Fund Type
• Agency Funds - Agency Funds are used to account for assets held by the City in or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other
governments, and/ or their funds. Agency Funds are custodial in nature ( assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results
of operations.
Account Groups
• General Fixed Assets – The General Fixed Assets Account Group accounts for recorded fixed assets of the City, other than those
accounted for in the proprietary funds types. Infrastructure ( i. e., streets, road and bridges) is included and depreciation is provided for on a
straight line basis, based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. All fixed assets are valued at historical cost or estimated
historical cost if actual costs were not available. Donated fixed assets are valued at their estimated fair market value on the date donated.

NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued)
• General Long- Term Debt - The accounting and reporting treatment applied to the long- term liabilities associated with a fund are
determined by its measurement focus. All Governmental Funds are accounted for on a spending or “ financial flow” measurement focus.
This means that only current assets and current liabilities are generally included in their balance sheets. Their reported fund balance ( net
of current assets) is considered a measure of “ available spendable resources.” Governmental fund operating statements present increases
( revenues and other financing sources) and decreases ( expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Accordingly, they are
said to present a summary of sources and uses of “ available spendable resources” during a period.
C. Basis of Accounting / Measurement Focus
All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or financial flow measurement focus, which means that only current assets and
current liabilities are generally included on their balance sheets. Their reported fund balance is their net current assets, which is considered
only to be a measure of available spendable resources. Governmental fund operating statements present a summary of sources and uses of
available spendable resources during a period by presenting increases and decreases in net current assets.
Because of their spending measurement focus, governmental funds exclude fixed assets and non- current liabilities. Instead, these assets and
liabilities are reported in the General Fixed Assets Account Group and the Long- Term Debt Account Group. These account groups measure
only financial position; they are not funds and they do not measure results of operations. They maintain accounting control over the City’s
governmental funds fixed assets and City debt, which will be repaid by governmental funds.
Property tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes have been levied providing they become available. Available means
then due, or past due and receivable within the current period and collected within the current period or expected to be collected soon enough
thereafter ( not to exceed 60 days) to be used to pay liabilities of the current period.
Grants, entitlement, or shared revenues recorded in governmental funds are recognized as revenue in the accounting period when they become
susceptible to accrual, i. e., both measurable and available ( modified accrual basis). Grants received before the revenue recognition criteria has
been met are reported as deferred revenue, a liability account. Such resources not received are reported as a receivable if the revenue
recognition criteria has been met.
Special reporting treatments are also applied to governmental fund inventories to indicate that they do not represent “ available spendable
resources” even though they are a component of net current assets. Such amounts are offset by fund balance reserve accounts.

City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 13
NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued)
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred; principal and
interest on general long- term debt is recognized when due.
Construction period interest costs incurred to bring certain assets to the condition and location necessary for their intended use are not capitalized
as part of the historical cost of acquiring the assets.
All proprietary funds are accounted for on a cost of services or capital maintenance measurement focus. This means that all assets and all
liabilities ( whether current or non- current) associated with their activity are included on their balance sheets. Their reported fund equity ( net total
assets) is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components. All proprietary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of
accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they are earned and become measurable, expenses are recognized when they are incurred.
The City applies, to all proprietary funds, all applicable pronouncements of the Government Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) as well as any
applicable pronouncement of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Accounting Principles Board, or any Accounting Research Bulletins
issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless these pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements.
Depreciation of all exhaustible fixed assets used by Proprietary Funds is charged as an expense against their operations. Proprietary fund fixed
assets are reported net of accumulated depreciation on their balance sheets. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using
the straight- line method for all classes of fixed assets.
The estimated useful lives for the General Fixed Asset Account Group and the Proprietary Funds are as follows:
Land improvements 20 years
Building and structures 45 years
Machinery and equipment 5 - 20 years
Vehicles 6 years
Infrastructure 65 years

D. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting
• General Budget Policies
Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund, certain Special Revenue
Funds, Debt Service Funds, and certain Capital Project Funds. See footnote # 2 for those funds not included. The level of budgetary
control is established at the fund level, and adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America. Expenditures may not exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level without City Council approval.
Prior to July 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of a resolution. The City Council periodically reviews the budgets and
adopts supplemental appropriations ( amendments) at the fund level when required. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted
amounts between line items within any department. Budgeted amounts presented in the financial statements are as originally adopted, or
as amended by the City Council. Individual amendments were not material in relation to original appropriations.
All unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at each fiscal year end, and are reappropriated in the ensuing year’s budget.
• Encumbrances
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of funds are recorded in
order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is employed in the governmental funds. Open encumbrances are recorded as
reservations of fund balance since the commitments will be paid by subsequent years’ budget appropriations. Encumbrances do not
constitute expenditures or liabilities. Encumbered appropriations are presented to Council each year for reappropriation in the ensuing
year’s budget. There were no encumbrances outstanding in any governmental fund at June 30, 2001.
• Budget Basis of Accounting
Budgets for governmental funds are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Budgetary comparisons presented for the General, Special Revenue, Capital Project, and Debt Service Funds in this report are
presented on the same basis.

E. Cash and Investments
• Investments are stated at fair value.
• Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all pooled cash and investments as cash and cash equivalents because the
pool is used essentially as a demand deposit account from the standpoint of the proprietary funds.
F. Vacation, Sick Pay, Compensatory Time Off
A total of 11 to 28 vacation days, up to 60 hours of compensatory time off or 80 hours of administrative leave time and 12 days of sick leave
may be accumulated by employees every year. Sick leave is not paid at termination but is used for additional service credits towards
retirement and half ( up to $ 8,000) of accrued sick leave may be cashed in at time of retirement from Brentwood. Under certain restrictive
circumstances, limited amounts of sick leave can be converted to vacation time. Vacation time is only to accumulate up to one and one- half
years of earnings. All employees may elect to receive a lump sum payment of up to 40 hours of accumulated vacation each March and with
Mid- Managers, Department Directors, and the City Manager eligible to elect payment of up to 80 hours in March. Additionally, each October,
employees with five years of service may elect to receive a lump sum payment of up to 40 hours of accumulated vacation time; with Mid-
Manager, Department Directors and the City Manager eligible to elect payment of up to 80 hours.
The City accrues a general long- term liability for the gross amount of all earned but not taken leave for all employees except for sick leave for
those who have terminated by the date of preparation of the financial statements. Because no employees are assigned full time to the
enterprise funds all of the liability is recorded in the General Long- Term Debt Account Group. The total liability is included in the General
Long- Term Debt Account Group because it is anticipated that none of the liability will be liquidated with available financial resources.

G. Property Tax
Property tax valuation, lien, and levy for secured and unsecured property is March 1 of each year. Fifty percent of secured taxes are due on
November 1 and February 1 of each fiscal year and are delinquent on December 10 and April 10, respectively. Unsecured property taxes are
due on July 1 and delinquent on August 31. Contra Costa County bills and collects the City's property taxes, and the remittance of them to the
City is accounted for in the City's General Fund. City property tax revenues are recognized when levied to the extent that they result in current
receivables. The City receives their full assessment of property tax, and the County retains all delinquent charges.
H. Use of Estimates
In preparing general purpose financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the general purpose
financial statements and revenues, expenditures and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
I. Contributed Capital in Proprietary Fund Types
Contributed capital in proprietary funds represents contributed fixed assets. Contributed in the proprietary funds increased by $ 10,598,675
during the year ended June 30, 2001.
J. Total Columns on Combined Statements - Overview
Total columns on combined statements are captioned “ Memorandum Only” to indicate that they are presented only to facilitate financial
analysis. Data in these columns do not present financial position, results of operations, or changes in financial position in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Neither is such data comparable to a consolidation. Interfund

K. Deferred Compensation Plan
City employees may defer a portion of their compensation under a City Sponsored deferred compensation plan created in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code Section 457. Under the plan, participants are not taxed on the deferred portion of their compensation until it is
distributed to them. Distribution may be made only at termination of employment, retirement, death or in emergency as defined by the Plan.
In accordance with GASB 32, the City revised the plan to no longer make the funds available to the City’s general creditors and accordingly,
the City does not report any assets or liabilities associated with this plan in these financial statements.

At June 30, 2001, the City had no investments in repurchase agreements. At no time during the fiscal year did the City borrow funds through
use of a reverse- repurchase agreement, even though such transactions are authorized by the City’s investment policy. Investments are stated at
fair value. All investments, held by the City at year- end, had maturities of less than 5 years.
Investment In State Treasurer’s Pool
The Local Agency Investment Fund ( LAIF) is an external investment pool sponsored by the State of California authorized under Section
16429.1,2,3 of the California Government code. The fund is a voluntary program created by statute as an investment alternative for California
local governments and special districts. The fund is administered by the California State Treasurer. The City deposits excess cash in LAIF is

C. Cash and Investments with Fiscal Agent
The City has monies held by trustees or fiscal agents pledged to the payment or security of certain bonds, certificates of participation, and
lease obligations. The California Government Code provides these monies, in the absence of specific statutory provisions governing the
issuance of bonds certificates, or leases, may be invested in accordance with the ordinance, resolutions or indentures specifying the types of
investments its trustees or fiscal agents may make.
D. Fair Value of Investments
Accounting pronouncement GASB Statement 31 generally applies to investments in external investment pools ( State of California LAIF &
county treasury investment pools), investments purchased with maturities greater than one year, mutual funds, and certain investment
agreements. Generally, governmental entities need to report the “ fair value” changes for these investments at year- end and records these gains
or losses in their operating statements.

NOTE # 3 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS ( Continued)
Methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value: The City maintains investment accounting records on amoritized cost and adjusts those
records to “ fair value” on a monthly basis when material. The Funds investment custodian provides market values on each investment instrument
on a monthly basis. The investments held by the Fund are widely traded in the financial markets and trading values are readily available from
numerous published sources. The Fund has elected to report its money market investments ( those investments with maturities of less than one
year) at amortized cost adjusted to fair value on a monthly basis. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded on a monthly basis and the carrying
value of its investments is considered “ fair value”.
State of California State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund ( LAIF): The City holds an investment in LAIF that is subject to being
adjusted to “ fair value”. The City is required to disclose its methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of its holdings in LAIF. The
City relied upon information provided by the State Treasurer in estimating the City’s fair value position of its holding in LAIF. The City had a
contractual withdrawal value of $ 41,899,252 whose pro- rata share of fair value was estimated by the state Treasurer to be $ 41,992,980. The fair
value change in this investment for the year came to an amount that was not material for presentation in the financial statements.
The State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund (“ LAIF”) is a governmental investment pool managed and directed by the California State
Treasurer and is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. An oversight committee, comprised of California State officials
and various participants, provide oversight to the management of the fund. The daily operations and responsibilities of LAIF fall under the
auspices of the State Treasurer’s office. The City is a voluntary participant in the investment pool.
The management of LAIF has indicated to the City that as of June 30, 2001, the amortized cost of the pool was $ 54,496,268,373. The fair value
was $ 55,175,428,123. Included in LAIF’s investment portfolio are certain derivative securities or similar products in the form of structured notes,
totaling $ 1,517,548,000 and asset- backed securities totaling $ 937,996,000. LAIF’s ( and the City’s) exposure to risk ( credit, market or legal) is not
currently available.

This report was prepared in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America as established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB). Background The City of Brentwood is located halfway between the cities of San Francisco and Sacramento at the eastern end of Contra Costa County. The City is governed by a five ( 5) member City Council, under the Council – Manager form of government. As of June 30, 2001, the City has a current population of approximately 26,000 and encompasses approximately 13.73 square miles. Brentwood was incorporated in 1948 as a general law city under the laws of the State of California. City Hall - 708 Third Street, Brentwood, California 94513- 1396 Phone: ( 925) 516- 5400 Fax: ( 925) 516- 5401 Public Works – 161 Sycamore Avenue, Brentwood, California 94513- 1396 Phone: ( 925) 516- 5498 Fax: ( 925) 516- 5497 Community Development – 104 Oak Street, Brentwood, California 94513- 1396 Phone: ( 925) 516- 5405 Fax: ( 925) 516- 5407 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR x This report is presented in three sections: Introductory: The Introductory Section includes this transmittal letter, the City’s organizational chart, maps, table of contents, and a list of the principal public officials and administrative personnel. Financial: The Financial Section includes the independent auditor’s report, the general purpose financial statements and related notes thereto, and the combining and individual fund and account group financial statements and schedules. Statistical: The Statistical Section includes selected financial and demographic information, generally presented on a multi- year basis. The Government Finance Officers Association ( GFOA) offers a recognition program for public entities to determine whether the City conforms to the highest level of financial reporting standards. If a city qualifies, a Certificate of Achievement is awarded for a period of one year. The City believes this report conforms to Certificate of Achievement program requirements, and the City is submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility. It is our goal to be awarded this Certificate because it demonstrates that the City conforms to a high level of financial reporting standards, which may improve the City’s future bond rating with the debt investment community. Reporting Entity This report reflects reporting as a single entity for all operations directly associated and controlled by the City. In addition to reporting directly for the City operations, two component units, the Brentwood Redevelopment Agency and Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority, have been included in the primary reporting entity. The Brentwood Redevelopment Agency is organized under the State of California Community Redevelopment Law. The Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority is a joint powers authority between the City and the Authority. The primary purpose of the Authority is to render financial assistance to the City and the Agency by issuing debt and financing the construction of public facilities. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the governments operations and so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Each of the blended components has a June 30 year- end. Accounting for all the City’s activities is centralized under the Department of Finance. The department has been delegated the responsibility for maintaining the integrity of City’s recorded financial data. In fulfilling this responsibility, the Finance Department has prepared the accompanying financial statements. In our professional judgment, these statements fairly and accurately reflect the financial position of the City and the results of its operations. This financial report includes all of the City’s funds and account groups. The City provides a full range of services. These services include police services, public works, economic development, planning, engineering and inspection services, parks and recreation, and general administrative services. The City also operates a public water and wastewater utility, as well as refuse collection, which includes disposal and a recycling program. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xi Economic Condition and Outlook Until recently, Brentwood was a small rural agricultural community. The need for housing in the Bay Area in the early 1990’ s prompted Brentwood’s growth at a rate of between 10% to 15% per year. The City’s population has increased steadily over the last fiscal year as predicted, and the development of single- family homes, commercial sites and infrastructure reflects the increase in this expanding population. The City issued an unprecedented 1,483 building permits for single- family homes during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2001. To keep up with the growth demands, infrastructure also was at a high level with several projects at various stages of design, construction or completion for the year. Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 saw positive economic news for the City of Brentwood with growth in population, residential construction, sales and median prices, and rapidly accelerating commercial/ industrial development as follows: Number of Units vs. Value of New Construction 0 200 400 600 800 1,000 1,200 1,400 1,600 92 93 94 95 96 97 98 99 00 01 Fiscal Year Ending Units - 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 Value ( in Millions) Number of Units Valuation 155 354 390 563 501 864 685 979 888 1483 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xii Population increased by 9.68% Single family home construction increased by 68.14% New Home sales - 744 Existing home sales - 460 Median price for existing homes is $ 277,000, up 20% Median price for new homes is $ 325,575, up 19% 260,000 square feet of retail shopping center space under construction These pictures portray one of the latest additions to the City of Brentwood’s planned communities. This Subdivision includes a wide range of family oriented activities including an 18- hole championship golf course, future clubhouse with restaurant, a park area for play and a large park including multi- sports facilities at the southwest corner of the community. ( Pictured left). Financial Data Providing reliable financial information requires the establishment of accounting records adequately supported by systems of internal control. The City’s management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the City’s assets are protected from loss, theft, or misuse. They must also ensure that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable assurance that these objectives are met, while recognizing that this assurance is not absolute. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: ( 1) the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and ( 2) the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xiii management. City administration believes the existing internal control systems are adequate to provide this reasonable assurance that City assets are safeguarded against loss and that financial records are reliable for preparing financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets. Furthermore, the City received the first “ Unqualified” Audit this past year. This was due to the Asset Valuation Study that accurately identified all the City’s assets, thus allowing the auditors to identify those assets. This is the first step toward the City’s requirement of maintaining an up to date inventory program. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) adopted a number of significant changes now commonly called GASB 34 or, the “ new accounting model”. Assets must now be valued and capitalized in the new reporting model. Implementation for Brentwood will begin July 1, 2001. The accompanying financial statements have been examined by Vavrinek, Trine, Day and Co., LLP, Certified Public Accountants. The firm was engaged by the City Council to render an opinion on the City’s financial statements in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. The City Council is responsible for: 1. Assuring that City administration fulfills its responsibilities in the preparation of the financial statements; and 2. Engaging the certified public accountants with whom the City Council reviews the scope of the audits and the accounting principles to be applied in financial reporting. To ensure complete independence, Vavrinek, Trine, Day and Co., LLP has full and free access to meet with the City Council to discuss the results of their assessment of the adequacy of internal accounting controls and the quality of financial reporting. The City also maintains budgetary controls. The objective of these budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual appropriated budget approved by the City Council. Activities of the general fund, special revenue funds, debt service funds, enterprises, and capital projects funds are included in the annual appropriated budget, except the Bypass Authority, JPA Capital Projects, and the Capital Improvement Funding Programs. The level of budgetary control is established at the fund level. The City also maintains an encumbrance accounting system as one technique for accomplishing budgetary control. These budgets reflect an organization whose top priorities continue to be: • Provide and build public facilities • Provide and maintain an adequate public infrastructure • Plan and manage growth to maintain and enhance our small town character • Enhance and promote Brentwood’s economic vitality • Provide friendly customer service City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xiv The Operating Budget maintains a stable financial environment for the City of Brentwood. The decisions made in the budget process emphasize the City Council’s Goals and Objectives. Staff will continue to pursue all means available to achieve the City’s Mission Statement: The City of Brentwood is dedicated to creating, maintaining and enhancing a well- planned community that is friendly, safe and healthy for everyone. Mission Statement Adopted January 5, 2001. The City’s accounting records are maintained on the Accrual Basis, or Modified Accrual Basis, as appropriate. Budgets are prepared and expenditures recorded at the object of expenditure level. A thorough explanation of the City’s funds as of June 30, 2001, and the results of each fund’s operation for the year, are presentated in the financial section of this report. LOCAL ECONOMY Retail Economic Development activity continues to accelerate in the City of Brentwood. National retailers have recognized a critical mass of 155,000 people in our trade area. Brentwood will support approximately 1.2 M square feet of new retail space in the next eighteen months. This will provide convenient goods and services for our residents, reduce regional traffic load and retain sales tax revenues in our area. Brentwood has several excellent sites properly zoned with available infrastructure in the epicenter of the trade area and welcomes all interested parties. The Fiscal Impact of National Retailers located in Brentwood is at least $ 2.50 per square foot in annual sales tax revenue. Brentwood’s Central Business District is thriving with a zero vacancy rate. Several new businesses that have opened in the past two years focus on food, wine, and specialty shopping, greatly enhancing the Downtown ambience. The newly restored marquee on the Delta Cinema was funded by the City’s Redevelopment Agency as a public art project and serves as a historic Downtown landmark. In an effort to support the City’s Family Aquatic Center and Skate Park, the Economic Development Department embarked on a request for proposal and qualifications to develop the adjacent corner site with specialty and themed retail shops and restaurants with a ground lease to generate sufficient funds to offset the operating costs of the park. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xv As the City passed the 25,000- population threshold, major commercial developers as well as nationally recognized retailers took note. The City’s demographics are attractive to retailers such as Home Depot and Target who are preparing to open stores on Lone Tree Way in late 2002. More major retailers are proceeding through the entitlement process, which promises to strengthen the already bright economic future for the City. Commercial / Industrial Brentwood’s Economic Development Department led the $ 4M adaptive re- use effort to renovate a 34,500 square foot location vacated by Lucky’s grocery store to accommodate a local Los Medanos College Campus and a Business and Technology Incubator that will open October 1, 2001. The LMC campus, in conjunction with other educational institutions, will provide our residents a full range of higher educational opportunities and our local businesses employee training programs. The Business and Technology Center provides high quality office space with a state of the art voice over Internet protocol network and 3- megabit bandwidth at an affordable cost and a monthly rental term. The Incubator provides start- up businesses with a place to produce, mature, and increase our basic economy. Future Outlook – Commercial / Industrial Brentwood’s vacancy rate for Office, Flex- Tech and Light Industrial space remains below 2% reflecting a prospering business community. We have approximately 350,000 square feet of approved projects represented in all three categories. Two of these projects are in construction and two more will break ground next spring. Growth in the Office, Flex- Tech and Light Industrial categories has a “ direct” fiscal impact because it creates jobs in the basic economy, bringing new money into the community through trade and commerce outside our local economy. Basic economy business growth also has a significant “ indirect” fiscal impact because new money expenditures in the local economy does not stop with the “ direct” impact. Money that employees and businesses spend in the community has a multiplier effect by introducing the new money into the local economy. A recent analysis prepared by McGill Martin Self, Inc. for a proposed project in Brentwood found that every dollar spent in Brentwood by employees and businesses resulted in $ 1.638 dollars traded in the local economy. The Economic Development and Engineering Departments teamed together to manage the development of the 131.7- acre property the City owns on Sunset Road. The Master Plan includes a 49.2 ac. tertiary Wastewater Treatment Plant, 2.7 ac. Solid Waste Plant, 13.3 ac. Corporation Yard, 37.7 ac. Sports Park and a 28.8 Medium Industrial Park. This multi- use project provides the City with significant and expandable public works facilities as well as a lighted sports complex. The Medium Industrial Park provides affordable sites for uses needed by the City but undesirable in most locations. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xvi Commercial development projects continue to thrive and are being built to serve new and existing residents. There are many desirable areas of interest by commercial developers and builders. Some of these areas include, but are not limited to, the Lone Tree Way and Sand Creek Road Corridors, Balfour Road, Highway 4, Harvest Park Area, and the Northwest Quadrant adjacent to the Highway 4 Bypass project. DEVELOPMENT / GROWTH INITIATIVES Completed Projects: Brentwood Family Aquatic Complex – Opened in September, 2000, with 30,000+ participants using the facility in the first year of operation. The aquatic complex was recognized by the California Park and Recreation Society with an Award of Excellence for Facility Design and is considered the jewel of the City of Brentwood Park and Recreation system. The complex provides recreational swimming, swim lessons, recreational/ competitive swim, lap swim and exercise programs. It is also used as the home site of the Liberty High School water polo and swim teams. In addition, the complex is available for rental for community events and hosts a variety of local and regional swim meets and water polo matches on a regular basis. With the high energy demands necessary to operate this complex, the City is moving forward with many energy saving ideas including by- pass timers for lights, which will reduce the overall wattage output in the parking lot and consideration of a co- generation plant on site that would provide electricity and heat for the pool. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xvii First Street Parking Lot - Twenty additional parking spaces were a nice addition to the downtown area. ( Pictured here). Brentwood Boulevard Reconstruction - Added an additional travel lane, curb, gutter, sidewalk, and drainage modifications, which gave a lift to the workability and appeal of this commercial location between Spruce Street and Central Boulevard/ Sycamore Street. Marsh Creek Trail Undercrossing - Paving of this trail section made a much- needed connection under a busy arterial boulevard. This trail is part of the regional trail system and can now be used all year round for biking, walking, or skating. Annual Pavement Management Program ( PMP) - As part of the City’s preventative maintenance program, the streets are surveyed to determine where reconstruction, overlaying, surface sealing, and crack sealing is needed. Various streets are repaired each year. Oak and Third Street Improvements - This intersection, which is located directly adjacent to City Hall, a high school and a bustling downtown, experiences a great deal of traffic volume. As part of a safety measure this intersection was converted to a four way stop that also includes ADA ( Americans with Disabilities Act) standard curb ramps, planter areas, crosswalks, signage and striping. This project significantly helped to improve traffic control in this area. Redevelopment Agency Projects: The Agency approved expenditures of housing set- aside funds, coupled with CDBG funds, for the Utility Connection Assistance Program. This program provides zero- interest loans to connect water and wastewater lines for low and very low- income homeowners in nine target areas. Other infrastructure improvements authorized by the Agency included water and wastewater line improvements for health and safety purposes in Lone Tree Way and Brentwood Boulevard area and also in the Davis Camp area where failure of a substandard private septic system servicing 17 very- low and low- income households resulted in an emergency condition. The approval of matching funds to supplement CDBG funds provided thirty new and replacement street lights in the Village Drive neighborhood to eliminate conditions that jeopardized the health and safety of the residents. The Agency authorized the purchase of two lots for the construction of 32 additional parking spaces in downtown area to facilitate expansion of existing businesses and attraction of new businesses. The Agency also approved a grant for the restoration and rehabilitation of certain historical signs within the downtown area. The purchase of a one- acre lot at 159 Sycamore Avenue to remove an existing blighted condition is now held for resale and development of a for-sale town home development to be made available to and occupied by residents and workers of Brentwood. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xviii Lastly, the Agency commenced a plan amendment process to add territory to the North Brentwood Redevelopment Area, commonly referred to as the Sunset Industrial Complex, to facilitate the reuse of existing light and heavy industrial uses along Brentwood Boulevard in an effort to eliminate conditions of blight. Current Projects and Projects Under Construction: Balfour Road Expansion - One of the projects that resulted from Brentwood’s growth rate is the Balfour Road Expansion. This two- lane country road was expanded to four lanes from the Highway 4 Bypass to the westerly City limits and completed in July 2001. Completion of this project will be the first four lane east- west road from one end of the City to the other. Wastewater Treatment Plant 5MGD Expansion ( pictured right) - This project will expand the City’s wastewater treatment capabilities from 2 million gallons per day ( mgd) to 5 mgd. This expansion will completely replace the City’s existing plant of which portions date back to the early 1940’ s with a state of the art facility. This new facility is currently scheduled for operations beginning July of 2002. Well # 14 - This project will expand the City’s water production capabilities by approximately 1.3 million gallons per day. This will provide additional supplies for a growing City as well as provide reliability for the existing customers. This project is anticipated to be complete by late 2001. Zone II Reservoir - This addition of a 2 million gallon reservoir will provide additional reliability in the City’s water system and ensure that adequate supplies are available for peak demand times as well as emergencies. Elevated Tank Repainting - The elevated tank is a Brentwood landmark and represents a feel for times past. The tank is no longer utilized for water storage but provides for the housing of wireless communication systems. This landmark can be seen from a great distance and is need of an updated look and a fresh coat of paint. This project is slated to be complete November 2001. Fire Station – This is a joint project between the City and the development community. The actual construction is being facilitated by a developer while administration and coordination activities are provided by the City. This project will continue to ensure that fire safety is provided to the residents of Brentwood. The new facility is being constructed on Balfour Road just west of the newly constructed Highway 4 Bypass. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xix Highway 4 Bypass – This project is being constructed by the County with funding contributions made from Brentwood and surrounding communities. The Bypass will connect Highway 4 in the City of Antioch to Vasco Road south of the City of Brentwood. This will alleviate traffic on the older Delta Highway 4 that runs through Oakley, Brentwood and Byron and provide commuters with a direct route from Antioch to the Tri- Delta area. Current Projects in Design: Sand Creek Road Central Phase I – ( Map Pictured) This project will connect to the Highway 4 Bypass project improving east- west circulation throughout the City. In addition to the new roadway that includes median curbs, asphalt concrete pavement, street lights, potable and non- potable waterlines, wastewater lines, fiber optic lines, traffic signal and a box culvert extension of Sand Creek, it also includes a pedestrian undercrossing for the trail system. Brentwood Bikeway Project – The widening of Griffith Lane from Central Boulevard to Griffith Lane will include intersection improvements. Brentwood Boulevard Parking Lot – The construction of this lot will provide additional downtown parking in a busy location. Sunset Industrial Complex – The Sunset Industrial Complex is the City’s first major Redevelopment effort intended to relocate heavy industrial uses from Brentwood Boulevard to a more appropriate location as well as provide additional light and medium industrial development sites. It consists of approximately 30 acres of land adjacent to the Wastewater Treatment Plant and the Sunset Sports Complex. The project promotes the City’s efforts to increase the jobs to housing ratio as well as improve the City’s tax base. Design is underway with construction scheduled to commence the second quarter of 2002. Northwest Quadrant Infrastructure – The City’s newly annexed northwest quadrant is currently undergoing intensive planning related to both commercial as well as residential development. Infrastructure, which is virtually non- existent at this time will be financed and constructed through an acquisition type assessment district. The district will fund approximately $ 30,000,000 worth of infrastructure consisting of roads, wastewater lines, water lines, storm drains and parks. Construction is scheduled to break ground in the second quarter of 2002 with completion scheduled concurrently with the opening of several major commercial projects on Lone Tree Way. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xx Future Projects: An Economic Development Strategic Action Plan prepared by the Department with assistance from Gruen Gruen & Associates was adopted by the City Council in July 2001. This Plan, which provided fundamental policy direction to the City’s General Plan Update, provides a strategic approach to growing the City’s basic economy as well as forecasting regional retail demand and Downtown specialty retail opportunities. The Department will also update the DDS Marketing Demographic Analysis Report in October 2001. This report has been invaluable in providing national retailers with information from a source they find credible. The Economic Development Department has been very active in the Inter- Regional Partnership, a State of California Economic Development Program initiated by former Assemblyman Torlakson. Brentwood was awarded a $ 100K grant by this program in April 2001. The City has also prepared a joint application with the City of Antioch to be designated as an Opportunity Zone. The fiscal impact of an Opportunity Zone designation may include cash grants and special status in state programs such as tax increment financing for infrastructure and first priority for Infrastructure Bank financing. New Police Facility – The new police facility is in the early stages of design. This project will be part of the November 6, ballot as a General Obligation Bond to fund a large part of the new facility. ( Site pictured). Sand Creek Road East - This project is the next phase of Sand Creek Road Central and will improve the east- west circulation throughout the City. In addition to grading, paving, signing and striping, major portions of this project will include a railroad crossing, traffic signal, bridge at Marsh Creek, and storm drain improvements. Redevelopment Agency - To further its mission in the upcoming 2001- 2002 year, the Agency will continue the identification of commercial, retail, and industrial development programs, business assistance programs, public improvements and facilities programs, and the assistance and participation in the expansion and improvement of the supply of very low, low and moderate income housing. This would include continuous efforts on the town home development at 159 Sycamore Avenue, the processing of the plan amendment, and the sponsorship of the Utility Connection Assistance Program. In September 2001, the Agency authorized the execution and issuance of Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds in the amount of $ 23,000,000 to finance certain public improvements and to refund an existing outstanding bond. The Agency will consider the level of participation in the Sand Creek Business Center and Gregory Ranch developments by reimbursing the developer a portion of the costs for roadway improvements, using a share of the Capital Improvement Revenue Bonds proceeds. Agency staff is currently considering the assemblage of parcels in the downtown City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxi area along with an Agency- owned parcel for a retail and restaurant center and also will embark on a downtown parking study. As part of an industrial improvement program, the Agency will also consider the level of participation to assist the voluntary relocation of high industrial uses from the Brentwood Boulevard area to the new Sunset Industrial Park to act as a catalyst in the removal of existing blighted conditions and to facilitate re- use and revitalization of the area. To facilitate the success of the Sunset Industrial Park, the Agency has committed to partially fund the realignment of Sunset Road to intersect with Brentwood Boulevard at Grant Street signal. Finally, Christian Church Homes has requested the Agency’s assistance in constructing a second 40- unit senior apartment complex. Parks and Recreation: The two main construction efforts are the development of the community skate park, an 18,500+ square foot park adjacent to the aquatic complex, and the two joint- use community gymnasiums that are being built with Brentwood Union School District and Liberty Union High School District. The two largest planning efforts are the Balfour Road Park, with eight- plus acres of open space parkland that will complete the aquatic complex property, and the expansion of Sunset Park Sports complex from 10 acres to 37 acres. Financing Future Infrastructure Capital Improvement Financing Programs: Capital Improvement Financing Programs ( CIFP) are a mechanism through which the City and the Development Community cooperate to fund and construct major Master Planned and Sub- Master Planned infrastructure ( roads, water and wastewater lines, regional drainage facilities, etc.). The City is able to obtain very low interest rates through its outstanding financial reputation and bonds are sold using the participating Developer’s property as the collateral. There is no risk involved for the city as a 3 to 1 value to lien ratio is used to determine the amount of bonds to be sold. As the properties develop, the bonds are repaid by the new property owner over a 30- year period. The most recent CIFP the City has funded was CIFP 2000- 1 where a total of $ 12,740,000 in bonds was sold with a total of seven participating Developers. These funds were used to construct and/ or improve existing roadways such as Fairview Avenue or construct neighborhood parks such as the park located just east of Walnut Boulevard. The city is currently working with the development community to form another CIFP that will fund the major infrastructure required to facilitate the expected growth in the northwest portion of the City. This CIFP is commonly being referred to as the Northwest Quadrant CIFP or CIFP 2001- 1. It is anticipated that this CIFP will provide the funds necessary to construct the ultimate improvements on Lone Tree Way, Fairview Avenue realignment, Heidorn Rand Road and possibly Empire Avenue. It is currently established that these improvements will require between 30 and 40 million dollars to construct. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxii COMMUNITY PROGRAMS The City’s Administrative functions are expanding to fill the ever- growing needs of the community. The establishment of an Economic Development Director, full- time Redevelopment Coordinator, and a Project Manager for Economic Development projects are the result of the City recognizing the needs in these areas. The goal is to secure and strengthen the long- term economic vitality of the City. The City is pioneering the areas of paperless agendas for Council meetings for the public, staff and City Council, as well as recording meeting minutes and publishing voting results over the Internet. The City has also introduced new conveniences for its residents through establishing passport application and processing services at City Hall. Future plans call for the expansion of the City’s grant writing efforts that will increase to citywide from what has been an engineering effort for infrastructure. The challenge for this grant writing effort is not to lose the very successful infrastructure effort while expanding the scope. The City Attorney position was created in March 2000. The growing demand for legal advice has mirrored the city’s growth and associated demand for more and better government services. The City Attorney provides legal advice to Council members, boards and commissions and departments on a daily basis as well as prepares a variety of legal documents, such as contracts, ordinances, resolutions and memoranda. The City Attorney is part of the City’s management team and is pro- active in a collegial team- oriented atmosphere. The Planning Division of the Community Development Department facilitated multiple Working Group meetings on the General Plan Update, completing the EIR and concluding two years of incredible work, which will meet the City Council’s goals for job generation and growth management, with the adoption of the General Plan Update in November of 2001. The Governor’s Office recognized the work on this project as “ outstanding.” The Department completed an innovative Growth Management Program, and took the John Muir Medical Center project through the Planning Commission and City Council processes to approval. They successfully adopted, against all odds, a highly regarded and creative Agricultural Preservation Program. They completed processing the AIG Baker Shopping Center in record- breaking time. Plans for almost 1,450 single- family dwellings were reviewed and approved and 469,515 square feet of commercial projects were taken through the planning process. Staff also processed five annexations through LAFCO, adding over 1,000 acres to the City’s boundaries. Parks and Recreation Division, in addition to traditional recreation programs and activities, the City of Brentwood merged with the Brentwood Community Center/ senior programs of the Delta Community Services, Incorporated to establish a senior services component. This component includes rental and administrative services for the Brentwood Community Center. The City of Brentwood also merged the Village Drive Resource Center into the Recreation Division - a center that provides prevention and social services to a large segment of the population. The City of Brentwood also established the Park and Recreation Commission, the Youth Commission, and the Arts Commission, which are staffed and supported by the Parks and Recreation Department. These three commissions provide expertise and recommendations to City Council on a wide range of park, recreation, youth, and cultural issues. In addition, development of a citywide maintenance contract brought parks, roadway mediums, and lighting and landscape districts under a single department. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxiii The Brentwood Police Department has adopted a philosophy of community policing and instituted various programs to support that philosophy. Some of these programs are D. A. R. E., Neighborhood Watch, National Night Out, Red Ribbon Week, Vacation Watch, bicycle helmet program, and Tell- A- Cop. To support these programs, they work very hard to keep as many officers " on the street" as possible. Unlike some cities, Brentwood officers respond to every call for service. The Department has not adopted and has no intention of adopting a " mail in" report process. Two School Resource Officers are co- funded by grants, the school districts and the Police Department. Two officers are assigned to motorcycles for traffic enforcement and accident prevention. We have implemented a bicycle patrol program, conduct DUI checkpoints, and join with other agencies on countywide drunk driving abatement programs. B. A. C. U. P. ( Brentwood Active Citizens Uniformed Patrol) is a volunteer program made up of private citizens who assist the Police Department in many tasks. They work everyday at the Department in the office, managing the radar trailer deployment program, removing unsightly signs, reporting graffiti for removal, assisting on special events at assigned traffic posts, and performing minor repairs at the police building. The Police Chaplain program is an extension of the B. A. C. U. P. Volunteer program. Chaplains volunteer their time to support officers, their families, and citizens in times of crisis. Youth activities focus on giving kids positive alternatives to decision making including the PAL program and the Explorer Scout program. Some children make mistakes and the Youth and Family Services diversion program holds them accountable, but allows juveniles to avoid having a criminal record by diverting from the criminal justice system. During the last few years, much time and planning has been put into creating a Community Service Officer program. Civilians are hired, trained, and deployed to perform many of the non- confrontational tasks that officers have traditionally been assigned. CSO's take minor crime and accident reports, issue parking citations, remove abandoned vehicles, transport non- violent prisoners, and manage the evidence storage program. Neighborhood Clean- Up Days – Currently there are eight neighborhood clean- up days staffed by the Community Development Department, enhancing civic pride in our neighborhoods. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxiv General Governmental Revenues The following schedule presents a summary of general, special revenue, debt service, and capital project fund revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2001, and the amount and percentage of increases and decreases in relation to prior year revenues. Percent of Increase Increase Percent of ( Decrease) ( Decrease) Revenues Amount Total from 2000 from 2000 Taxes $ 7,311,476 17.18% $ 1,238,691 20.40% Licenses 61,554 0.14% 8,864 16.82% Permits and Fines 8,987,674 21.11% ( 712,184) - 12.12% Uses of Money and Property 3,011,813 7.08% ( 601,475) - 17.14% Intergovernmental 2,710,186 6.37% 4,795,444 275.89% Franchises 264,651 0.62% 38,856 17.21% Charges for other services 513,923 1.21% 418,684 439.61% Charges to other funds 2,478,056 5.82% 291,623 13.34% Fees and other revenues 17,229,787 40.47% 8,962,253 108.40% Total $ 42,569,120 100.00% $ 14,554,923 51.90% General Governmental Revenues $ 42,569,120 Taxes $ 7,311,476 17.18% Permits and Fines $ 8,987,674 21.11% Licenses $ 61,554 0.14% Fees and other revenues $ 17,229,787 40.47% Charges to other funds $ 2,478,056 5.82% Charges for other services $ 513,923 1.21% Franchises $ 264,651 .62% Inter-governmental $ 2,710,186 6.37% Uses of Money and Property $ 3,011,813 7.08% The City’s overall revenues in Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 increased by $ 14,554,923 or 51.90% from the previous year. The increase in taxes is primarily due to the increase in sales tax ( 12.01%), transient occupancy tax ( 30.88%) and an increase in property tax ( 23.69%). Permits and Fines have decreased due to the reallocating developer fees from this category to charges for other services. The majority of this increase in revenues was from additional building permits collected as a result of the record level of development during the year. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxv General Governmental Expenditures For Fiscal Year 2000/ 01, expenditures ( by functional classification) in the general, special revenue, debt service, and capital projects funds, were as follows: The City’s overall expenditures in Fiscal Year 2000/ 01 increased by $ 4,973,247 or 13.30% from the previous year. The increase is mainly due to the building of infrastructure, personnel costs, and an increase in settlement claims paid. The increase in general government is due to increases in personnel costs and settlement claims paid by the City. The increase in public works is due to the increase of contractual maintenance, utilities and personnel costs. The increase in public safety is due to the increase of personnel costs. Percent of Increase Increase Percent of ( Decrease) ( Decrease) Expenditures Amount Total from 2000 from 2000 General Government $ 2,809,563 6.63% $ 1,094,215 63.79% Public Safety 5,384,223 12.71% 1,133,783 26.67% Planning & Community Development 7,814,860 18.45% ( 2,128,182) - 21.40% Public Works 2,019,618 4.77% 909,228 81.88% Parks and Community Services 169,711 0.40% 16,621 10.86% Other 463,613 1.09% ( 555,777) - 54.52% Capital Projects 22,130,025 52.24% 4,891,341 28.23% Debt Service 1,569,785 3.71% ( 387,982) - 19.82% Total $ 42,361,398 100.00% $ 4,973,247 13.30% General Government Expenditures $ 42,361,398 Debt Service $ 1,569,785 3.71% Other $ 463,613 1.09% Capital Projects $ 22,130,025 52.24% Public Works $ 2,019,618 Parks and 4.77% Community Services $ 169,711 .40% Planning & Community Development $ 7,814,860 18.45% General Government $ 2,809,563 6.63% Public Safety $ 5,384,223 12.71% City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxvi Debt Administration At June 30, 2001, the City and its component units, the Brentwood Redevelopment Agency and Brentwood Financing Authority, had three debt issues outstanding as described in the Notes to the Financial Statements. In addition, the City administers debt for six Special Assessment Districts whose bonds are not obligations of the City. Cash Management The City invests temporarily idle cash in accordance with the Government Code and a formal investment policy approved by the City Council. This policy limits investments to certain types of instruments and requires that investments must meet established criteria for safety, liquidity and yield. As of June 30, 2001, investments ( not including investments with fiscal agent) totaled $ 70.5 million of which $ 28.5 was invested in the California State Local Agency Investment Fund ( LAIF) and $ 41.5 in other investments managed by Public Financial Management ( PFM). The portfolio managed by Public Financial Management is in full compliance with California Government Code Section 53601 and the City’s investment policy. The City’s investment policy is to minimize credit and market risks while maintaining a competitive yield on its portfolio. Accordingly, deposits were either insured by federal depository insurance or collateralized, with all collateral held either by the City, its agent, or a financial institution’s trust department in the City’s name. All investments held by the government during the year and at June 30, 2001, are classified in the category of lowest credit risk as defined by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Enterprise Operations The City’s enterprise operations are comprised of Wastewater, Water, Solid Waste, Parks and Recreation, and City Rentals Operations. The Wastewater Enterprise activity is comprised of three programs: Operations, Capital, and Replacement. Wastewater is awaiting the completion of their new treatment facility that will increase capacity to 5.5 million gallons/ day ( MGD) from its current permitted level of 2.2 MGD. Expansion is available to over 10 MGD to allow for the expected growth in the City toward build out. As demonstrated in the financial statements of this report, the wastewater activity, as a whole, remained in sound financial condition for the year ended June 30, 2001. The combined net income for the Wastewater Enterprise was $ 4,682,133; most of this increase is due to developer fees. The Water Enterprise ended the year with a net income of $ 1,909,324. The City has aggressively pursued a meter- reading system for the whole City. The whole service area is now serviced by handheld radio- read meters, providing staff with a fast, efficient and accurate system. Wastewater and Water rate studies will be conducted during the summer of 2001 for implementation before the end of the year. These rate studies, once adopted, along with implementation of a SCADA System, should bring the Enterprise budgets under control and predictable. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxvii The Solid Waste Enterprise has been a real success story for the City. The City took over the service from a private hauler in 1994 and began providing service with the existing rate structure. The City, while having to provide significant initial capital investment, has provided a superior level of service and maintained a positive cash flow without increasing its fees in eight years. Solid Waste continues to focus on improving its efficiency while achieving state- mandated AB939 recycling goals of 50% in the coming years. The Solid Waste Enterprise ended the year with a net income of $ 566,663. Fiscal year 2000/ 01 was the second fiscal year for the department of Parks and Recreation, a department that was established on July 31, 1999. The California Park and Recreation Society recognized the department with three Awards of Excellence: for development of the Youth Commission Logo, the design of the Family Aquatic Complex, and the “ Team R & R” marketing program. “ Team R & R” also received a special Creating Community Award of Distinction for its innovation and community awareness, one of only three awards given throughout the State of California. This operation ended the year with a net income of $ 6,346,250. Most of this is due to developer fees. The City Rental Enterprise administers the daily operations of the newly constructed Brentwood Technology Center. At year end the net income is ($ 30,514), due to the building of the Technology Center. Rental income started August 2001. Risk Management The City has initiated a limited risk management program for workers’ compensation and general liability. As part of this comprehensive plan, resources are being accumulated in a fund balance reserve to meet potential losses. In addition, various risk control techniques, including employee accident prevention training, have been implemented during the year to minimize accident- related losses. Effective with the renewal of excess insurance policies on May 1, 2001, and July 1, 2001, third- party coverage is currently maintained for workers’ compensation and risk liability claims up to $ 350,000. Risk liability coverage is currently maintained and provides coverage in three tiers: $ 5,000 deductible to $ 1 million with 18 cities in primary insurance pool; $ 2 million excess $ 1 million in an excess self- insurance pool with 135 members; Through the excess pool, Carma, we have reinsurance to $ 15 million. This is with Am Re and would be $ 12 million plus $ 3 million. Total liability coverage is $ 15 million, subject to a $ 10,000 deductible. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR xxviii Independent Audit The Government Code of the State of California requires general law cities, such as the City of Brentwood, to have its financial statements audited by an independent certified public accountant. Accordingly, this year’s audit was completed by the accounting firm of Vavrinek, Trine, Day and Co., LLP. In addition to meeting the requirements set forth in state statutes, the audit also was designed to meet the requirements of the Federal Single Audit Act of 1984 and related OMB Circular A- 133. The auditor’s report on the general purpose financial statements is included in the financial section hereof. The examination relating to the single audit was found to be under the limit and not needed for fiscal year 2000/ 01. Acknowledgements I wish to thank the City Council for providing clear policy direction and goals that have been used to prepare this comprehensive annual financial report. I would also like to express my appreciation to all City of Brentwood staff members who have taken the time to participate in the development of the report. A great deal of effort and attention to detail has gone into the preparation of this document, representing many hours of work by staff members throughout the organization. These dedicated members assisted and contributed to its preparation. Special recognition is given to the Finance Department staff, and specifically Denise Davies, Brenda Cappello, and Gail Leech. Their efforts made it possible to improve the quality of the information being reported to the citizens, the City Council, and other users on a much more timely basis. Appreciation is also expressed to the Mayor, the City Council, and the City Manager for their interest and support in planning and conducting the financial activities of the City in a responsible and responsive manner. The City of Brentwood has a bright future ahead because of its committed elected leadership combined with the talents and ingenuity of the individuals within this organization. One of the key components in securing this future is through a well- planned, long- term fiscal strategy, based upon economic development that will generate high paying, long- term employment opportunities, new and stable sales tax revenue sources and improved intergovernmental relations. Though the challenges are great, the City is firmly committed to meeting each and every challenge that comes our way. This comprehensive annual financial report is the next step towards meeting those challenges. By continuing to follow the financial policy set forth by the City Council, Brentwood will deliver the highest level of service permitted by the available resources. Sincerely, Pamela Ehler Director Finance and Information Systems City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 1 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Brentwood, California We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the City of Brentwood, California, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2001, as listed in the table of contents. These general purpose financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatements. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the City of Brentwood, California, as of June 30, 2001, and the results of its operations and the cash flows of its proprietary funds for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 2 In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated September 24, 2001 on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The combining and individual fund and account group financial statements and schedules listed in the foregoing table of contents are presented for purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the general purpose financial statements of the City. These financial statements and schedules are also the responsibility of the management of the City. Such additional information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the general purpose financial statements, and in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects when considered in relation to the general purpose financial statements taken as a whole. The scope of our audit did not include the supplemental statistical section listed in the table of contents and we do not express an opinion on them.

Page 8 City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 9 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES General The City of Brentwood is located halfway between the cities of San Francisco and Sacramento at the eastern end of Contra Costa County. The City is governed by a five ( 5) member City Council under the Council– Manager form of government and provides the following services: public safety ( police), highways and streets, sanitation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services. The City has a current population of approximately 26,000, as of June 30, 2001, and encompasses approximately 13.73 square miles. Brentwood was incorporated in 1948 as a general law city under the laws of the State of California. At June 30, 2001, the City’s staff comprised 188 full- time employees who were responsible for City provided services. In addition, the City employs approximately 100 seasonal recreation personnel. The accounting policies of the City of Brentwood conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governments. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) is the accepted standard- setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting Principles. A. Reporting Entity As required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, these financial statements present the City of Brentwood ( the primary government) and its component units, entities for which the government is considered financially accountable. The City is considered to be financially accountable for an organization if the City appoints a voting majority of that organization or there is a potential for that organization to provide specific financial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on the City. The City is also considered to be financially accountable for an organization if the organization is fiscally dependent ( i. e., it is unable to adopt its budget, levy taxes, set rates or charges, or issue bonded debt without approval from the City). In certain cases, other organizations are included as component units if the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that their exclusion would cause the City’s financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are, in substance, part of the governments operations and so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Each of the blended component units discussed below have a June 30, year- end. Each of the component units listed below meets the above- mentioned criteria. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 10 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) Blended Component Units • Brentwood Redevelopment Agency The Brentwood Redevelopment Agency ( the Agency) is organized under the State of California Community Redevelopment Law. The Agency Directors also serve as the City Council. Separate financial statements for the Redevelopment Agency may be obtained from the City of Brentwood Finance Department. • Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority The Brentwood Joint Powers Financing Authority ( the Authority) is a joint powers authority between the City and the Authority. The primary purpose of the Authority is to render financial assistance to the City and the Agency by issuing debt and financing the construction of public facilities. Separate financial statements are not required for the Authority, and therefore, are not issued. B. Fund Accounting The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a separate set of self- balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues and expenditures, or expenses, as appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purposes for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activates are controlled. The various funds are grouped in the financial statements of this report. Fund types and account groups used by the City are as follows: Governmental Fund Types • General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. • Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for proceeds of specific revenue sources ( other than major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 11 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) • Capital Projects Funds - Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities ( other than those financed by Proprietary Funds and Trust Funds). • Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the payment of long- term debt principal, interest, and related costs. Proprietary Fund Types • Enterprise Funds - Enterprise Funds are used to account for operations ( a) that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises where the intent of the governing body is that the costs, including depreciation, of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis, be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or ( b) where the governing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/ or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability, or other purposes. • Internal Service Funds – Internal Service Funds account for the financing of goods, services, or facilities provided by one City department to other City departments on a cost- reimbursement basis. Fiduciary Fund Type • Agency Funds - Agency Funds are used to account for assets held by the City in or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other governments, and/ or their funds. Agency Funds are custodial in nature ( assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. Account Groups • General Fixed Assets – The General Fixed Assets Account Group accounts for recorded fixed assets of the City, other than those accounted for in the proprietary funds types. Infrastructure ( i. e., streets, road and bridges) is included and depreciation is provided for on a straight line basis, based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets. All fixed assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual costs were not available. Donated fixed assets are valued at their estimated fair market value on the date donated. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 12 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) • General Long- Term Debt - The accounting and reporting treatment applied to the long- term liabilities associated with a fund are determined by its measurement focus. All Governmental Funds are accounted for on a spending or “ financial flow” measurement focus. This means that only current assets and current liabilities are generally included in their balance sheets. Their reported fund balance ( net of current assets) is considered a measure of “ available spendable resources.” Governmental fund operating statements present increases ( revenues and other financing sources) and decreases ( expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. Accordingly, they are said to present a summary of sources and uses of “ available spendable resources” during a period. C. Basis of Accounting / Measurement Focus All governmental funds are accounted for on a spending or financial flow measurement focus, which means that only current assets and current liabilities are generally included on their balance sheets. Their reported fund balance is their net current assets, which is considered only to be a measure of available spendable resources. Governmental fund operating statements present a summary of sources and uses of available spendable resources during a period by presenting increases and decreases in net current assets. Because of their spending measurement focus, governmental funds exclude fixed assets and non- current liabilities. Instead, these assets and liabilities are reported in the General Fixed Assets Account Group and the Long- Term Debt Account Group. These account groups measure only financial position; they are not funds and they do not measure results of operations. They maintain accounting control over the City’s governmental funds fixed assets and City debt, which will be repaid by governmental funds. Property tax revenue is recognized in the fiscal year for which the taxes have been levied providing they become available. Available means then due, or past due and receivable within the current period and collected within the current period or expected to be collected soon enough thereafter ( not to exceed 60 days) to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Grants, entitlement, or shared revenues recorded in governmental funds are recognized as revenue in the accounting period when they become susceptible to accrual, i. e., both measurable and available ( modified accrual basis). Grants received before the revenue recognition criteria has been met are reported as deferred revenue, a liability account. Such resources not received are reported as a receivable if the revenue recognition criteria has been met. Special reporting treatments are also applied to governmental fund inventories to indicate that they do not represent “ available spendable resources” even though they are a component of net current assets. Such amounts are offset by fund balance reserve accounts. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 13 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred; principal and interest on general long- term debt is recognized when due. Construction period interest costs incurred to bring certain assets to the condition and location necessary for their intended use are not capitalized as part of the historical cost of acquiring the assets. All proprietary funds are accounted for on a cost of services or capital maintenance measurement focus. This means that all assets and all liabilities ( whether current or non- current) associated with their activity are included on their balance sheets. Their reported fund equity ( net total assets) is segregated into contributed capital and retained earnings components. All proprietary funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when they are earned and become measurable, expenses are recognized when they are incurred. The City applies, to all proprietary funds, all applicable pronouncements of the Government Accounting Standards Board ( GASB) as well as any applicable pronouncement of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, the Accounting Principles Board, or any Accounting Research Bulletins issued on or before November 30, 1989, unless these pronouncements conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. Depreciation of all exhaustible fixed assets used by Proprietary Funds is charged as an expense against their operations. Proprietary fund fixed assets are reported net of accumulated depreciation on their balance sheets. Depreciation has been provided over the estimated useful lives using the straight- line method for all classes of fixed assets. The estimated useful lives for the General Fixed Asset Account Group and the Proprietary Funds are as follows: Land improvements 20 years Building and structures 45 years Machinery and equipment 5 - 20 years Vehicles 6 years Infrastructure 65 years City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 14 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) D. Budgets and Budgetary Accounting • General Budget Policies Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the year for the General Fund, certain Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds, and certain Capital Project Funds. See footnote # 2 for those funds not included. The level of budgetary control is established at the fund level, and adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Expenditures may not exceed budgeted appropriations at the fund level without City Council approval. Prior to July 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of a resolution. The City Council periodically reviews the budgets and adopts supplemental appropriations ( amendments) at the fund level when required. The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between line items within any department. Budgeted amounts presented in the financial statements are as originally adopted, or as amended by the City Council. Individual amendments were not material in relation to original appropriations. All unencumbered and unexpended appropriations lapse at each fiscal year end, and are reappropriated in the ensuing year’s budget. • Encumbrances Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of funds are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is employed in the governmental funds. Open encumbrances are recorded as reservations of fund balance since the commitments will be paid by subsequent years’ budget appropriations. Encumbrances do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. Encumbered appropriations are presented to Council each year for reappropriation in the ensuing year’s budget. There were no encumbrances outstanding in any governmental fund at June 30, 2001. • Budget Basis of Accounting Budgets for governmental funds are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Budgetary comparisons presented for the General, Special Revenue, Capital Project, and Debt Service Funds in this report are presented on the same basis. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 15 NOTE # 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ( Continued) E. Cash and Investments • Investments are stated at fair value. • Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all pooled cash and investments as cash and cash equivalents because the pool is used essentially as a demand deposit account from the standpoint of the proprietary funds. F. Vacation, Sick Pay, Compensatory Time Off A total of 11 to 28 vacation days, up to 60 hours of compensatory time off or 80 hours of administrative leave time and 12 days of sick leave may be accumulated by employees every year. Sick leave is not paid at termination but is used for additional service credits towards retirement and half ( up to $ 8,000) of accrued sick leave may be cashed in at time of retirement from Brentwood. Under certain restrictive circumstances, limited amounts of sick leave can be converted to vacation time. Vacation time is only to accumulate up to one and one- half years of earnings. All employees may elect to receive a lump sum payment of up to 40 hours of accumulated vacation each March and with Mid- Managers, Department Directors, and the City Manager eligible to elect payment of up to 80 hours in March. Additionally, each October, employees with five years of service may elect to receive a lump sum payment of up to 40 hours of accumulated vacation time; with Mid- Manager, Department Directors and the City Manager eligible to elect payment of up to 80 hours. The City accrues a general long- term liability for the gross amount of all earned but not taken leave for all employees except for sick leave for those who have terminated by the date of preparation of the financial statements. Because no employees are assigned full time to the enterprise funds all of the liability is recorded in the General Long- Term Debt Account Group. The total liability is included in the General Long- Term Debt Account Group because it is anticipated that none of the liability will be liquidated with available financial resources.

Use of Estimates In preparing general purpose financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the general purpose financial statements and revenues, expenditures and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. I. Contributed Capital in Proprietary Fund Types Contributed capital in proprietary funds represents contributed fixed assets.

Generally, governmental entities need to report the “ fair value” changes for these investments at year- end and records these gains or losses in their operating statements. City of Brentwood NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2001 City of Brentwood – 2000/ 01 CAFR Page 25 NOTE # 3 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS ( Continued) Methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value: The City maintains investment accounting records on amoritized cost and adjusts those records to “ fair value” on a monthly basis when material. The Funds investment custodian provides market values on each investment instrument on a monthly basis. The investments held by the Fund are widely traded in the financial markets and trading values are readily available from numerous published sources. The Fund has elected to report its money market investments ( those investments with maturities of less than one year) at amortized cost adjusted to fair value on a monthly basis. Unrealized gains and losses are recorded on a monthly basis and the carrying value of its investments is considered “ fair value”. State of California State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund ( LAIF): The City holds an investment in LAIF that is subject to being adjusted to “ fair value”. The City is required to disclose its methods and assumptions used to estimate the fair value of its holdings in LAIF. The City relied upon information provided by the State Treasurer in estimating the City’s fair value position of its holding in LAIF. The City had a contractual withdrawal value of $ 41,899,252 whose pro- rata share of fair value was estimated by the state Treasurer to be $ 41,992,980. The fair value change in this investment for the year came to an amount that was not material for presentation in the financial statements. The State Treasurer’s Local Agency Investment Fund (“ LAIF”) is a governmental investment pool managed and directed by the California State Treasurer and is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission. An oversight committee, comprised of California State officials and various participants, provide oversight to the management of the fund.
