FY 23/24 and FY 24/25 Expenditure Recommendations for Measure S Funds • Recommendation: Hear staff presentation • Technical questions from the Committee • Receive public comment • Further Committee discussion 1|Page 4/30/24 MEASURE S MINUTES • Approve and adopt Resolution No. MS2024-02, A RESOLUTION OF THE CRESCENT CITY MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE AMENDING THE RECOMMENDED EXPENDITURES OF MEASURE S FUNDS FOR FY 23/24 • Approve and adopt Resolution No. MS2024-03, A RESOLUTION OF THE CRESCENT CITY MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE RECOMMENDING EXPENDITURES OF MEASURE S FUNDS FOR FY 24/25 City Manager Wier reported that having reliable patrol vehicles for our police officers is a high priority. He further reported that the Police Department Vehicle Replacement Plan does not affect the budget recommendations for FY24/25. The goal is to have patrol vehicles that are not more than 10 years old and less than 100k miles. Then, they will be transitioned to Admin or Reserve Patrol (which anticipates 7500 miles a year). For the K9 vehicles, there is a minimum of 3 primary K9 vehicles required as there are three K9 officers. These vehicles are anticipated to get 12k miles a year and this is attributed to additional travel for training. Chairman Perry asked if there would be 10-12 vehicles on hand; City Manager Wier stated yes, between 10-12. Chief Griffin stated that the vehicles that are no longer on patrol can be used for training, travel, and Emergency Vehicles Operation Course (EVOC), which is a basic pursuit training. Committee Member Tinkler stated that due to the climate and salt air, she was not expecting that a patrol car would last 10-15 years. Chief Griffin stated that these vehicles are running all of the time and not staying parked for long periods of time. Chief Griffin stated that the previous patrol vehicles had high mileage and were not in the best of shape; Measure S has afforded the police department to get safer, more sound patrol vehicles for the Department. City Manager Wier went over the PD facility plan. Chairman Perry asked when this project would take place; Finance Director Leaver stated they are hoping to go out to bid late Summer or Fall; City Manager Wier stated that construction would begin next year. Chairman Perry asked how the patrol vehicles are taken out of commission; City Manager Wier explained that there is a government auction site that is used to auction off former patrol vehicles. Chief Griffin gave an update on staffing, that there will be a reserve officer come on board soon and that they will soon be up to full staffing. Vice-Chair Shamblin asked if the money from the vehicle sale goes back to the General Fund; City Manager Wier stated it depends on where the funding had initially come from, that it would go back to that fund. City Manager Wier reported to the Committee that there are no changes to the Crescent City Fire and Rescue budget for FY23/24. For FY24/25 budget, there are the following budgeted costs shared with the District – volunteer stipends, station staffing, full-time Captain positions, training, Command Department Training System, volunteer recruitment and retention, equipment and tools, rope rescue equipment, apparatus radios, turnouts and helmets and transfer to vehicle/equipment fund for future turnouts. What has been budgeted as City-only costs are the following; transfer to apparatus replacement fund, transfer to vehicle/equipment fund (quick response vehicle), transfer to vehicle/equipment fund (Chief command vehicle), SCBA for the City, and transfer to vehicle/equipment fund for future SCBAs. Fire Chief Carey stated that all of the radios in the rigs are old and need to be replaced. City Manager Wier discussed the replacement of apparatuses. Chairman Perry asked how much a new rig would be; Chief Carey stated it is anywhere between $900k to $1million. He also stated that he has been in discussions with Elk Valley Rancheria for possible funding to assist with it’s purchase. City Manager Wier reported that for the Pool, the biggest change in that budget was in parts and supplies. The slide pump was originally in the budget, however, since there is a spare, it doesn’t need to be in this budget. The pool recirculation pump is only going to cost $5k, which resulted in some savings. City Manager Wier stated that the bid for the HVAC project, has a base bid of 2|Page 4/30/24 MEASURE S MINUTES $1,156,017. The base bid includes installation of a dehumidification system and replacing the boilers in kind. This project, if approved, will increase the temperature and humidity control resulting in better comfort for swimmers, bystanders, and staff as well as a building that will have a longer useful life. Vice-Chair Shamblin would like to see the difference between the General Fund (GF) and Measure S funds. Director Leaver stated that was included in the Audit Report in the last meeting. City Manager Wier showed a graph that showed before Measure S funding and the budget afterwards. Measure S is really augmenting the GF and the GF is putting in more. Vice Chair Shamblin appreciated seeing how much Measure S augments the General Fund. Director Leaver explained the process the sales tax auditor does in detail and that they are very accurate in their predictions for Measure S funds. City Manager Wier went over this year’s budget for streets. Staff recommended to not purchase the crack seal machine, but to hire a contractor to perform the crack sealing instead, therefore that has been removed from the budget. The proposed FY24/25 recommended Measure S budget for street improvements includes $200k in minor street/pedestrian repairs (potholes, crack seal, and sidewalk repairs/replacement) plus $600k in a large street project. Then there is a typical budget for street striping and streetlights. We have a total of $1.1million to be used for street projects. Regarding the slide at Pebble Beach Drive, the emergency funding will not be coming through. However, there is $32million authorized by the Federal Highways, but the City would have to front the money and then wait to be reimbursed, which could take years. The options for the Committee to consider for Pebble Beach Drive are the following: not expend any of the funds listed above until an official determination/options for the repair of Pebble Beach are known, expend only the minor repair budget of approximately $250k in FY23/24 plus $200k in FY24/25 and save the unallocated major road repair funds in the amount of $1,525,000 until more is known about the Pebble Beach Drive project funding, or expend all of the funds as originally intended on local road projects. This last option would limit the City’s future options regarding the repair and stabilization of Pebble Beach Drive. Director Yeager gave a PowerPoint presentation on the street projects. Chairman Perry stated he proposes the Committee adopts what has been presented tonight as they have been very well informed. The projects that have been budgeted this year is what he is proposing the Committee recommends. He further stated that the opportunity should be seized for an important project; Committee Member Reno agreed, should use the funds for the projects before the Committee and what has already been budgeted. Vice-Chair Shamblin agrees; Committee Member Tinkler stated that she would like to see the funds be used for what the voters voted for. There were no comments from the public. On a motion by Committee Member Reno, seconded by Vice-Chair Shamblin, and carried unanimously on a 4-0 polled vote, the Measure S Oversight Committee approved and adopted Resolution No. MS2024-02, A RESOLUTION OF THE CRESCENT CITY MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE AMENDING THE RECOMMENDED EXPENDITURES OF MEASURE S FUNDS FOR FY 23/24.

Chief Carey reported to the Committee the need for SCBAs and that they just received word the FEMA grant applied for was not awarded to the City, however Measure S funding has been instrumental in helping to fund them. Chairman Perry asked about the expenditures for the fire department; Chief Carey explained the equipment that will be purchased is for the apparatuses. He further explained that the costs will be shared between the City and the District. The main focus of the fire department is to get the equipment updated and a 10-year plan has been laid out to budget those items. Staff is asking the Measure S Oversight Committee to approve $10k from the City for turnouts and SCBAs, with the District matching the funds. Director Yeager gave a detailed report on the pool projects with Engineering Project Manager VanHook giving more detail of the projects to be done during the pool closure. City Manager Wier explained the amended Expenditure Recommendations that are listed in Exhibit A. The amendments are as follows: Fire Department: turnouts and helmets – current budget is $50k, recommended budget is $70k. The Fire District reimbursement: current budget is $390,840 the recommended budget is $400,840. For police department facility improvements, the recommended budget is $90k to be transferred into CIP fund. For street improvements: pot hole, crack seal, and minor repairs, sidewalk repair or install, striping, street lights, grant match for HSIP sidewalk project (transfer to CIP) and street preservation project (transfer to CIP fund) – budget is $1,143,374.

For the Finance Department: independent audit and sales tax consultant (projections & business audits) recommended budget: $7,991. Chairman Perry stated he would like to see the maintenance expenses be tracked to ensure they are being done. Is in support of what staff is presenting for Measure S expenses. Committee Member Tinkler asked about the $120k contingency for the Pool CIP project; City Manager Wier asked Chairman Perry if he wanted to see the contingency be 15% - 20% for specific maintenance items; Chairman Perry stated he is more concerned with the deferred maintenance and would like to see more funds for the contingency. City Manager Wier suggested bumping the contingency up $50k, from $120k to $170k, so the work can get done while the pool is closed and there won’t be a need to hold off on any work for approval of more funding. If the contingency isn’t fully used, it will be returned to the Measure S budget. The Measure S Oversight Committee was in consensus to add $50k to the contingency. City Manager Wier went over the detailed summary of the 5-year plan for Measure S funds. On a motion by Vice-Chair Shamblin, seconded by Committee Member Tinkler and carried on a 5-0 polled vote, the Measure S Oversight Committee approved and adopted Resolution No. MS2024-04, A RESOLUTION OF THE CRESCENT CITY MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE AMENDING THE RECOMMENDED EXPENDITURES OF MEASURE S FUNDS FOR FY24/25 with amendments to Exhibit A as presented. 2.

City Manager Wier explained that $2.6 million is needed for the CCPD debt service and the ask of the Measure S Oversight Committee is to place those funds in CIP. Committee Member Reno asked if any of the work can be done by City staff to save money; Director Yeager said that due to not having the correct kind of machinery, City staff cannot do the work.

ATTEST: ___________________________ Robin Altman City Clerk/Administrative Analyst 3|Page 10/28/24 MEASURE S MINUTES MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE AGENDA REPORT TO: CHAIR PERRY AND MEMBERS OF THE MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE FROM: ERIC WIER, CITY MANAGER BY: LINDA LEAVER, FINANCE DIRECTOR DATE: FEBRUARY 11, 2025 SUBJECT: MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE ANNUAL REPORT FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024 ______________________________________________________________________ RECOMMENDATION • Hear staff report • Technical questions from the Committee • Receive public comment • Further Committee discussion • Approve and adopt Resolution No. MS 2025-01, A RESOLUTION OF THE CRESCENT CITY MEASURE S OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE APPROVING A REPORT ON MEASURE S FUNDS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023-2024 BACKGROUND Attached are the Measure S financial statements and independent auditor’s report for Fiscal Year 2023-2024 prepared by Badawi & Associates. The City’s Measure S financial statements are provided to give an accurate financial snapshot at a specific point in time (June 30, 2024). The City Council engages a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) to independently audit these statements to provide users of financial reports with assurance concerning their reliability and that the statements are fairly presented. The independent auditor reviews and tests the City’s records and policies, interviews City staff, and confirms certain details with outside parties (including banks, the State, the County, the City’s insurance provider, legal firms, local businesses, and others) in order to provide an opinion on whether the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the City. Audit work begins after the fiscal year ends (June 30) and continues through several phases taking approximately six months. One of the Measure S Oversight Committee’s responsibilities is to review and publicly Measure S Oversight Committee FY 2023-2024 Annual Report 2 February 11, 2025 report on the annual expenditure of Measure S revenues. ANALYSIS Measure S revenues and expenses occur within the City’s General Fund using a specific set of account codes for tracking. Any remaining balance at the end of a given fiscal year is labeled “Assigned Measure S” and reported as a separate line item on the City’s General Fund financial statements. The Measure S revenues and expenses are audited by the City’s independent auditor as part of the City’s overall financial audit as well as a stand-alone audit report for Measure S. Both the city-wide audit and the Measure S audit reports are posted on the City’s website and can be found at www.crescentcity.org/departments/Finance/AuditsandBudgets. As a general overview, Measure S had a balance of $1,141,510 when the fiscal year FY 2023-2024 began. The FY 2023-2024 budget recommendation was approved by the Measure S Oversight Committee by Resolution No. MS 2023-03 on April 10, 2023, which was incorporated into the City’s FY 2023-2024 budget by the City Council. The Oversight Committee gave updated recommendations as follows, all of which were incorporated into the City’s budget by the City Council: • November 14, 2023 meeting (Resolution No. MS 2023-04) o Re-budget items budgeted but not spent in FY 2022-2023 ▪ Fire: SCBA compressor, skid-mounted pump, radios ▪ Police: radios ▪ Streets: minor repairs, sidewalk repairs, striping o Move budgeted debt service payment for Police Department facility improvements into capital improvement fund • April 30, 2024 meeting (Resolution No. MS 2024-02) o Move pool parts budget to capital improvement budget o Remove purchase of crack seal machine FY 2023-2024 Revenues In FY 2023-2024 total Measure S revenues were budgeted at $2,701,260 (tax revenue and reimbursement from Crescent Fire Protection District) and actual revenue was $2,692,977. Tax revenues came in slightly above budget and Fire District reimbursements came in below budget. The Fire District and the City have a joint powers agreement to provide combined fire service to both the City and District. The shared operations are administered by the City, which pays the expenses and then bills the District for reimbursement of the District’s share of the costs. Some of the City’s fire department costs are budgeted using Measure S funds, as recommended by the Measure S Oversight Committee and approved by the City Council (such as the full-time fire captains, a portion of the volunteer firefighter stipends, certain equipment, training, etc.). For those expenses, the full expense is budgeted with Measure S funds, and the amount billed to the District (plus an administrative fee) is then returned to the Measure S balance as revenue. Measure S Oversight Committee FY 2023-2024 Annual Report 3 February 11, 2025 Original Final Budget Budget Actual Variance Measure S sales tax 2,300,000 2,300,000 2,345,019 45,019 Charges for service (Fire District reimbursement) 414,652 401,260 347,958 (53,302) Total revenues 2,714,652 2,701,260 2,692,977 (8,283) FY 2023-2024 Expenditures The table below shows the original and final budgets as approved by the City Council and incorporated into the City’s budget. There may be slight differences from the amounts shown in the Measure S Oversight Committee resolutions due to updates in costs at the time of budget approval (particularly for wages and benefits). Original Final Budget Budget Actual Variance Fire (total expense before reimbursement) 1,044,360 1,096,829 920,879 (175,950) Police 418,435 489,811 463,279 (26,532) Streets 935,000 1,088,673 836,453 (252,220) Pool 575,000 575,000 545,466 (29,534) Finance 7,500 7,500 5,317 (2,183) Total expenses 2,980,295 3,257,813 2,771,394 (486,419) The specific items within each department are shown in an attachment to this report. The items listed as “transfers” represent the Measure S contribution toward a specific capital improvement or capital purchase. Measure S transfers the money into the appropriate capital improvement fund until the project can be completed. Therefore, in the Measure S fund balance, the transfer is the expense, showing the money has been removed from Measure S and dedicated to the capital project. Those funds are not included in the ending fund balance of Measure S, as they have already been transferred to another fund. The exact project may or may not have been completed at the time of the audit. A detailed list of those projects and their remaining balance as of June 30, 2024 is also attached to this report. The funds continue to be tracked to ensure they are spent on Measure S priorities.

In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Measure S Sales Tax of the City as of June 30, 2024 and the changes in financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Basis for Opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1, the financial statements present only the Measure S Sales Tax and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City as of June 30, 2024, and the changes in its financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council of the City of Crescent City Crescent City, California Page 2 our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we: • Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. • Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. • Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. • Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. • Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control–related matters that we identified during the audit. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Measure S Sales Tax of the City. The budgetary comparison schedule is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. The budgetary comparison schedule is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally 2 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council of the City of Crescent City Crescent City, California Page 3 accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the budgetary comparison schedule is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 30, 2024 on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES A. Reporting Entity All transactions of the Measure S sales tax (Measure S) are reported in the General Fund (Fund) of the City of Crescent City, California (City). A separate set of accounts have been established by the City, to account for revenues earned and expenditures incurred according to Measure S. The accompanying financial statements are for the Measure S sales tax only and are not intended to fairly present the financial position of the City. B. Basis of Accounting and Measurement Focus The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are generally recorded when measurable and available (60 days), and expenditures are recorded when the related liabilities are incurred. The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. All governmental funds are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus, wherein only current assets and current liabilities generally are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements of governmental funds present increases (revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. C. Fund Accounting The operations of the Measure S sales tax are accounted for as part of the General Fund. Funds are separate accounting entities with a set of self-balancing accounts which comprise their assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures. D. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. E. Revenues and Receivables During the course of normal operations, the General fund carries a receivable balance for Measure S sales tax. Revenues are recorded when received in cash, except revenues subject to accrual (generally 60 days after year-end) are recognized when due. 7 City of Crescent City Measure S Sales Tax Notes to Financial Statements For the year ended June 30, 2024 2. CASH AND INVESTMENTS Measure S monies are pooled with the City's cash, cash equivalents, and investments. The City pools cash resources from all funds to facilitate the management of cash. Cash and cash equivalents are considered amounts on hand, in demand deposits, and short-term investments with a maturity date within three months of the date acquired by the City and are presented as "Cash and Investments". The City invests in one external investment pool, the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). All pooled cash and investments held by the City are considered cash and cash equivalents because LAIF is used essentially as demand deposits from the standpoint of the City. Information about the City's Cash and Investments is disclosed in the City's Basic Financial Statement. Measure S cash and investments was $568,524 as of June 30, 2024. 3. MEASURE S SALES TAX The City placed Measure S (a 1% local tax measure) on the ballot for the November 3, 2020 general election. This transactions and use tax (generally referred to as a sales tax) is intended to support and maintain essential services including the City's police and fire departments, street maintenance and repair, and the operations of the municipal swimming pool. Measure S is a general tax, which requires voter approval of at least 50% +1. The voters of Crescent City approved the measure with 64.57% voting yes. One of the requirements included with the Measure S ordinance is a citizens’ oversight committee. The committee is made up of five voting members (City residents) and two non-voting members (City staff). The committee is charged with reviewing and reporting to the public on the revenues and expenditures of Measure S funds. The committee is also charged with making recommendations on the expenditure of Measure S funds to the City Council. All Measure S oversight committee meetings are open to the public. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the oversight committee recommended Measure S be spent on public pool operations and projects, additional firefighters and police, specific equipment for the fire and police departments, street repairs, and financial oversight. 4. RECEIVABLES The taxes receivables represent the Measure S sales tax revenues for the fiscal year remitted after June 30, 2024. Accounts receivables represent charges for services for work performed for other entities. 8 SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION 9 City of Crescent City Supplementary Information Measure S Sales Tax For the year ended June 30, 2024 Variance with Final Budget Budgeted Amounts Actual Positive Original Final Amounts (Negative) REVENUES: Measure S sales tax $ 2,300,000 $ 2,300,000 $ 2,345,019 $ 45,019 Charges for services 414,652 401,260 347,958 $ (53,302) Total revenues 2,714,652 2,701,260 2,692,977 (8,283) EXPENDITURES: Human services and recreation 575,000 575,000 545,466 29,534 Public Safety - Fire 1,044,360 1,096,829 920,879 175,950 Public Safety - Police 418,435 489,811 463,279 26,532 Public Works 935,000 1,088,673 836,453 252,220 Other 7,500 7,500 5,317 2,183 Total expenditures 2,980,295 3,257,813 2,771,394 486,419 Net change in fund balance $ (265,643) $ (556,553) (78,417) $ 478,136 FUND BALANCE: Beginning of year 1,141,510 End of year $ 1,063,093 10 City of Crescent City Measure S Sales Tax Supplementary Information For the year ended June 30, 2024 1.

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City's internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the City's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 13 To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council of the City of Crescent City Crescent City, California Page 2 Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Measure S Sales Tax financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that is required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. Badawi & Associates, CPAs Berkeley, California December 30, 2024 14 RESOLUTION NO.
