The Financial section described above is prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for governments as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board ("GASB")
and other professional associations, as applicable.
CITY PROFILE
Location
The City of College Station, incorporated in 1938, is located in Brazos County in East Central Texas,
approximately 140 miles north of the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 90 miles northwest of Houston,
approximately 165 miles south of Dallas and approximately 100 miles east of Austin, in an area referred
to as the Brazos Valley. The City currently has a land area of 47.2 square miles and a current estimated
population of 80,333 as of February 2005. The City has the power, by state statute, to extend its
corporate limits by annexation, which it has done periodically.
Structure
The City of College Station is a home rule municipality and utilizes a Council-Manager form of
government organized under the Constitution and laws of the State of Texas. The City Council is
composed of a mayor and six council members elected at large. The City Council appoints the City
Manager, City Attorney, City Secretary and Municipal Court Judge. Almost all other City staff work under
the direction of the City Manager.
The Reporting Entity and Services Provided
This report includes all government activities, organizations and functions for which the City is financially
accountable as defined by the GASB. Based on these criteria, no other governmental organizations are
included in the report. For additional information on the reporting entity, refer to Note I-A in the basic
financial statements.
The City provides a full range of municipal services as prescribed by statute or charter. These services
include police, fire and emergency medical services, parks and recreational facilities, library services,
street maintenance and construction, public improvements, general administrative services and electrical,
water, sewer, and sanitation systems. Internal services of the City accounted for on a cost
reimbursement basis are print/mail, risk management, employee health and disability, equipment
replacement, fleet management, and communications.
Accounting System and Budgetary Control
The City's accounting records for general governmental operations are maintained on a modified accrual
basis, with the revenues recorded when available and measurable, and expenditures recorded when the
services or goods are received and the liabilities incurred. Accounting records for the City's utilities and
other proprietary activities are maintained on a full accrual basis with revenues recorded when earned
and expenses recorded as goods or services are provided to the user.
In developing and maintaining the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of the
internal control structure. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable, but not
absolute, assurance regarding: (1) the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use or
disposition, and (2) the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements and maintaining
accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control
should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and the evaluation of costs and benefits requires
estimates and judgments by management.
vi
All internal accounting control evaluations occur within the above framework. We believe that the City's
internal accounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper
recording of financial transactions.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City's financial planning and control. The City Charter
provides that the City Manager will submit a proposed budget to the City Council between 30 and 90 days
prior to the end of the fiscal year. The City's budget is prepared by function, fund and department. The
City Council is required to hold a public hearing on the proposed budget and to adopt a budget no later
than the 27th day of the last month of the fiscal year. The City's fiscal year begins on October 1 and ends
on September 30. Controls of budgetary spending are at the department level within the City's General
Fund and at the individual fund appropriation in all other funds. The City Council must authorize transfers
between General Fund departments and all increases in total spending in any fund.
The City's departments have direct access to review budgets as often as necessary. Monthly closing
reports are prepared and reviewed by management showing revenues, expenditures, and balance
sheets. Summarized financial reports and budget reports are provided to the City Council on a quarterly
basis.
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
Economic Conditions
College Station's economic outlook is positive. College Station did not experience the full effect of the
national and state economic slowdown over the past several years. The area is somewhat immune due
to a concentration of stable and even-growing employment sectors such as government, higher education
and health care.
College Station continues to enjoy one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state. At the end of 2004
the Brazos County unemployment rate was 2.0 percent. Slow but steady job growth also occurred adding
approximately 2.8 percent to non-farm payrolls in 2004.
Many parts of the state and nation experienced reductions in various types of tax revenue. Sales taxes
were down in the State of Texas in 2002 and 2003, the first time since the sales tax was instituted in
Texas. In 2004 state sales tax revenues were up by 7.9%. Sales tax collections in College Station
continued to grow through those two years of economic turmoil, and saw significant growth in fiscal year
2004. College Station's sales taxes were up in fiscal year 2004 by 8.5 percent over fiscal year 2003 to
$14,957,697.
College Station continues to see significant growth in housing and commercial development. There were
549 new housing starts during 2004, somewhat fewer than in 2003 but well ahead of the average number
of new housing starts over the last ten years. Total ad valorem assessed valuation increased by
approximately $305 million or approximately 11.2 percent for fiscal year 2004 over fiscal year 2003.
Commercial development continued to be strong with both new and redevelopment. Several new
commercial businesses opened in College Station in 2004, and several new hotels were under
construction in 2004. The University Drive corridor continued to have a significant amount of new
businesses and increased traffic.
One major asset of the City of College Station is that it is the home of Texas A & M University ("TAMU").
TAMU is located on an approximately 5,200 acre campus within the City. TAMU has a significant
economic impact on the City, contributing an estimated $784 million annually to the local economy.
TAMU has consistently ranked among the top 50 universities in the United States. Each year, TAMU's
vii
2,500 faculty conduct an estimated $400 million worth of sponsored research projects, assisted by more
than 5,000 paid graduate students. The $4.2 billion endowment ranked TAMU eleventh in the nation for
fiscal year 2000. Student enrollment at TAMU was 44,571 as of September 2004. TAMU employs more
than 20,000 full-time and part-time people.
Major Initiatives
In 2004 the construction of the second phase of trails and drainage improvements in the Wolf Pen Creek
District began. This project is being paid for from the Wolf Pen Creek Tax Increment Financing District
fund and the Drainage Utility fund, and is a significant project in the Wolf Pen Creek Corridor that is
designed to help spur additional development in this growing corridor. This area also saw the beginning
of construction on an ice rink by a private developer. The City conveyed the 4.23 acre tract of land and is
reimbursing the developer for relocation of sewer lines as part of an economic development agreement.
Another significant economic development agreement was the construction of the Warehouse at Cross
Street loft apartments in the Northgate area. The City participated in the construction of new sidewalks,
utility infrastructure, curb and gutter, and the planting of street trees on this project. During fiscal year
2004 construction began on an expansion to the Lincoln Recreation Center. The City continues to
upgrade and replace infrastructure within its parks system. Parking, improved trail surfaces, bridges, and
a new entrance were constructed at the Lick Creek Park. Other park projects completed in 2004 include
new lighting for the softball fields at Bee Creek Park, and the completion of Southern Oaks Park, a
neighborhood park, in the Shenandoah subdivision.
A new street extension was completed with Copperfield Drive extended between Highway 30 and
Highway 60. Widening projects continued on Greens Prairie Road East of Highway 6 to Pebble Creek
Parkway and the George Bush East widening project from Texas Avenue to Dominik was completed.
Other significant street projects include the rehabilitation on Dominik Drive from Munson Street to the
Dominik Drive cul-de-sac. Also in 2004 the First, Maple and Louise Street rehabilitation project was
completed ahead of schedule. This project also included water and sewer line replacements, storm
sewer and electrical installations with new street light foundations, and sidewalks with ramps. In 2004
another significant rehabilitation project included was the Southside System A rehabilitation project which
included street and utility rehabilitation, drainage improvements and the installation of new storm sewer
inlet lines. The relocation of overhead utility lines on a portion of two major thoroughfares, Texas Avenue
and Harvey Road was completed in 2004.
Construction also began in 2004 on Fire Station #5 located on Greens Prairie Road in the southern part
of College Station. This station is needed to provide adequate fire protection in the growing southern part
of the City.
Several new traffic signals were installed during the year to provide greater safety and better traffic flow.
New traffic signals were installed and made operational in fiscal year 2004 at Manuel on Texas Avenue,
George Bush East and Holleman, and University Drive at Forest Drive. A sidewalk project completed in
2004 was the sidewalk on the south side of Harvey Road from Johnny Carino's eastward to Dartmouth
Drive. Other sidewalk projects to place sidewalks along parts of Longmire Drive and Anderson Street
were also completed in 2004.
Technology is an ongoing area of advancement for the City. During fiscal 2004 work continued on a
software implementation to allow citizens to register for sports and recreation activities and to obtain
information on athletic fields, pools and leisure activities on the internet. An upgrade to the Fire
Department scheduling software also was underway in 2004. This software automates and simplifies
scheduling for the department to ensure qualified personnel are always available to respond to
emergencies while allowing individual employees the greatest personal flexibility. Also underway in 2004
was the writing of a program that enables Municipal Court to coordinate with other agencies regarding
collection of delinquent fines, increasing the collection rate and efficiency for the Court. Also in 2004 the
viii
City's new website was formally unveiled and was an immediate success with its user friendly format and
continuously updated information.
Capital Planning
The citizens of the City approved general obligation bond proposals totaling approximately $38.4 million
in November 2003. The first portion of this bond authorization totaling $6,105,000 was issued in 2004. It
is anticipated that the various street, traffic safety, public buildings, parks and fire station projects funded
by these bonds will be built over the next five years. The City has gone to the voters three times in the
last ten years with successful general obligation bond proposals. Among the more ambitious projects
planned is a City Centre that will eventually group most City departments in a campus-like setting. The
site is between the Police Station and Central Park abutting Texas Avenue on the West, Earl Rudder
Freeway on the East and Krenek Tap Road on the North. It is projected that the City will be able to make
the improvements without increasing the ad valorem tax rate for the capital portion of these projects.
Planning in the various utilities provides for an anticipated investment of $113 million over the next five
years. The funds will be used to provide electric line extensions, transmission enhancements,
substations, new customer connections, and replacements of existing facilities. The water utility will
replace lines in older neighborhoods, add new transmission and distribution lines, provide for a looped
system, add new wells, and continue a project to add transmission capacity from the well field to the City.
Wastewater projects include sewer outfall lines, line extensions for annexed areas and new services, and
treatment plant improvements. Relatively small rate increases are anticipated for the water and
wastewater utilities over the next five years to keep up with the additional capital requirements.
Cash Management
The City awards its depository contract through official bidding procedures for a two-year period with the
provision for up to three one-year extensions. The City is planning to issue a request for applications for
a new contract during 2005. The current depository contract with First American Bank SSB expires
October 1, 2005.
Temporarily idle cash for all funds is invested by City officials in securities as allowed by Texas Statutes
and the City's investment policy. The average balance of the City's investment portfolio for fiscal year
2004 was approximately $128,621,623. The overall portfolio produced total interest earnings of
$2,805,108 which represents a decrease of $462,570 from fiscal year 2003, due to lower interest rates
resulting in part from the economic slowdown and the Federal Open Market Committee's attempt to
stimulate the economy.
The City's bank depository agreement requires that all demand deposits and time deposits are secured
by pledged collateral with a market value equal to no less than 102 percent of the deposits, less $100,000
which is insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Evidence of the pledged collateral is
maintained by the Fiscal Services Department and a third party financial institution. Collateral is reviewed
monthly to assure the market value of the securities pledged equals or exceeds the related bank
balances. Assets pledged to the City by its depository are held by the Federal Home Loan Bank, Dallas,
Texas, pursuant to a separate Custody Account Agreement.
Investment securities purchased for the City, except investments in pooled funds and mutual funds, are
on a delivery versus payment basis. That is, funds are not wired or paid until verification has been made
that the correct security has been received by the custodian. Securities are held in a custody account in
the City's name. The original copy of all safekeeping statements is delivered to the City. J.P. Morgan
Chase has been designated as the City's safekeeping and custodian bank.
ix
During fiscal year 2004, the City Council reviewed the existing Investment Policy as required by state law
and no changes were made to the policy. The investment policy provides for an Investment Committee
comprised of the Investment Officer and at least two other staff members designated by the City
Manager. The City had no realized losses on any securities held during the year. For additional
information on the City's investments refer to Note IV-A to the financial statements.
Risk Management
The City's risk management program is administered by the Risk Management Division. The division is
responsible for monitoring all claims filed against the City as well as handling the filing of claims as
necessary on behalf of the City. The Risk Management Division is responsible for administering the
City's Workers' Compensation and Property Casualty Self Insurance Funds. The City's Risk Manager is
responsible for ensuring that the City's coverage is adequate to protect the City in the event of potential
losses and for ensuring continuous coverage. The City is developing an aggressive safety training
program.
Employee Retirement System
The City is a member of the Texas Municipal Retirement System ("TMRS") which covers all full-time and
certain part-time employees. The plan provides for no benefits beyond the contributions of the employee,
employer and earnings on the individual employee account. Employee contributions are seven (7)
percent of gross earnings. The City's contribution rate for 2004 was 12.17 percent. The employee
contribution rate has been increased for 2004 to seven (7) percent. The contribution rate for the City is
set by TMRS annually for a calendar year. Any unfunded liability (actuarially determined cost to the City
not already paid) is paid over a 25-year period and is included as a part of the rate the City pays.
OTHER INFORMATION
Independent Audit
Section 37 of the City's Charter requires that not less than thirty (30) days prior to the end of each fiscal
year, the City Council shall designate a qualified public accountant or accountants who, as of the end of
the fiscal year, shall make an independent audit of accounts and other evidences of financial transactions
of the city government and shall submit the report to the City Council. Such accountants shall have no
personal interest, direct or indirect, in the fiscal affairs of the city government. They shall not maintain any
account or record of the city business, but, within specifications approved by the City Council, shall post-
audit the books and documents kept by the Department of Fiscal Services and any separate or
subordinate accounts kept by any other office, department or agency of the city government.
The City of College Station has engaged Ingram, Wallis & Company of Bryan, Texas to perform the audit,
and their opinion has been included in this report. It should be noted that the auditors included all funds
in their audit, performed their audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards, and
concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion
that the City of College Station's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004, are
fairly presented in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principals. The independent
auditors' report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report.

This section of the City of College Station's (the City) Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
presents a narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2004. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here
in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The assets of the City exceeded its liabilities
at the close of the most recent fiscal year by
$292,242,242 (net assets). Of this amount,
$53,592,003(unrestricted net assets) may be
used to meet the government's ongoing
obligations to citizens and creditors.
• The City's total net assets increased by
$21,454,690 during the fiscal year.
• At the close of the current fiscal year, the
City's governmental funds reported combined
ending fund balances of $59,310,586, a
decrease of $3,911,578 when compared to
the prior year. This decrease is primarily
attributable to the early retirement of
$4,430,000 in debt related to the 1998
Certificates of Obligation.
• Approximately 26.5% of the combined
governmental funds ending fund balance, or
$15,698,697, is available for spending at the
City's discretion (unreserved-undesignated
fund balance).
• During fiscal year 2004, the City's total debt
increased by approximately $2,070,000. Key
factors in this increase were the issuance of
$12,940,000 in General Obligation
Improvement and Refunding Bonds, and
$9,415,000 in Certificates of Obligation.

Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview
of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City's assets and liabilities, with
the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net
assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether or not the financial position of the City is
improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net assets changed
during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets are reported as soon as the
underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in
cash flows in future fiscal periods, such as revenues pertaining to uncollected taxes and
expenses pertaining to earned but unused vacation.
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are
principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from
other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user
fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include
general government, police, financial services, information systems, planning and development,
fire, municipal services, parks and recreation, and citizen and neighborhood resources. The
business-type activities of the City include electric, water, sewer, and solid waste operations. The
government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 23-25.
Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have
been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local
governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related
legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into governmental funds and
proprietary funds.
Governmental Funds
Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as
governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the
government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-
term inflows and outflows of spendable resources as well as on balances of spendable resources
available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in determining what
financial resources are available in the near future to finance the City's programs.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial
statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar
information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term
financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to
facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.

The City maintains several individual governmental funds organized according to their type
(special revenue, debt service, and capital projects). Information is presented separately in the
governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues,
expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund, Debt Service Fund, and
Streets Capital Projects Fund which are considered to be major funds. Data from the remaining
governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for
each of the non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements
elsewhere in this report. The governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 26-
29.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund, Debt Service Fund, and
Streets Capital Projects Funds. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the
General Fund, Debt Service Fund and Special Revenue Funds to demonstrate compliance with
their budgets.
Proprietary Funds
Proprietary funds are generally used to account for services for which the City charges
customers--either outside customers or internal units or departments of the City. Proprietary
funds provide the same type of information as shown in the government-wide financial
statements, only in more detail. The City maintains the following two types of proprietary funds:
Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type
activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise funds to
account for the operations of the electric, water, sewer, sanitation, Cedar Creek
Condominiums and parking activities of the City. The Electric, Water, and Sewer funds
are considered to be major funds of the City while the remaining funds (Sanitation,
Northgate Parking Garage, and Cedar Creek Condominiums) are presented in aggregate
as non-major enterprise funds. Individual fund data for the non-major enterprise funds
can be found in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
Internal service funds are used to report activities that provide supplies and services for
certain City programs and activities. The City uses internal service funds to account for
communication, fleet maintenance, print-mail, and utility billing services. It also uses
internal service funds to account for equipment replacement; employee benefits; and
unemployment, workers' compensation, and property casualty insurance. All of these
services, with the exception of utility billing, predominantly benefit governmental rather
than business-type functions and have been included within governmental activities in the
government-wide financial statements. The Utility Billing Fund has been included with
the business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The internal
service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund
financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is provided in the
form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 30-35.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes to the financial statements provide additional information that is essential to a full
understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS
As noted earlier, net assets may serve as a useful indicator of a government's financial position.
For the City, assets exceeded liabilities by $292,242,242 at the close of the most recent fiscal
year.
The largest portion of the City's net assets (75.8 percent) reflects its investment of $221,655,539
in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, and equipment), less any related outstanding debt used to
acquire those assets. The City uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens;
consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City's investment
in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to
repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot
be liquidated for these liabilities.

An additional portion of the City's net assets, $16,994,700 (5.8 percent) represents resources that
are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of
unrestricted net assets, $53,592,003 (18.4 percent) may be used to meet the government's
ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
The City experienced a decrease in unrestricted net assets of $6,251,381. $4,150,415 of this
decrease occurred in the governmental activities unrestricted net assets and primarily resulted
from the early retirement of the outstanding balance of the 1998 Certificates of Obligation. The
$2,100,966 decrease in the business-type activities primarily resulted from the use of operating
funds for capital projects in the water fund.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City was able to report positive balances in all three
categories of net assets, both for the government as a whole, as well as for the business-type
activities. The same situation held true for the prior fiscal year.
During fiscal year 2004 the City conducted an inventory of governmental land, contracted an
inventory of governmental machinery and equipment, contracted an appraisal of governmental
infrastructure, and corrected the value of previously recorded governmental buildings and building
improvements. The adjustments for all of these items resulted in a net increase in governmental
capital assets of $7,795,715. Beginning governmental net assets have been restated to reflect
this change.
The City's net assets increased by $21,454,690 as a result of fiscal year 2004 operations. The
increase is primarily attributable to increases in ongoing revenues and relatively stable expenses.
The following table provides a summary of the City's operations for the year ended September
30, 2004 and highlights key elements of the increase in the City's net assets:

Governmental activities. Governmental activities increased the City of College Station's net
assets by $4,527,173, thereby accounting for 21.1 percent of the total growth in net assets. Key
elements of this increase are as follows:
• Property taxes increased $1,227,641 (9.1%) during the year. This is primarily the result
of the total ad valorem assessed valuations increasing by $305 million or 11.2 percent
over fiscal year 2003.
• Sales taxes increased $1,177,058 (8.5%) during the year. This is attributable to
continued economic growth in the area.
The chart below illustrates the City's governmental revenues by source. For governmental
activities overall without regard to program, sales tax (29 percent) and property tax (28 percent)
are the largest sources of funds followed by charges for services (18 percent), and grants and
contributions (16 percent). All other governmental revenues account for 9 percent of all
governmental revenues.

Business-type activities. Business-type activities increased the City of College Station's net
assets by $16,927,517, thereby accounting for 78.9 percent of the total growth in net assets. Key
elements of this increase are as follows:
• With the continued growth in the area capital contributions continued to be a major
source of revenue for the electric, water, and sewer funds. In fiscal year 2004 capital
contributions amounted to $5,179,221.
• Electric utility expenses actually experienced a decrease of $2.2 million or 5% from fiscal
year 2003. This is attributable to a litigation settlement that occurred during fiscal year
2003.
Revenues for the City's business-type activities are presented in the following chart. Charges for
services provided the largest share of revenues (92 percent) for the City's business-type
activities. It was followed by grants and contributions (7 percent) and investment income (1

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY'S FUNDS
As noted above, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with
finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental Funds
The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows,
outflows, and balances of resources that are available for spending. Such information is useful in
assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as
a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal
year. The types of governmental funds reported by the City include the General Fund, Debt
Service Fund, and Streets Capital Projects Fund. Other governmental funds of the City are
reported as non-major funds.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending
fund balances of $59,310,586. Approximately 26.5 percent ($15,698,697) of this total amount
constitutes unreserved fund balance and is available for spending at the City's discretion. The
remainder of fund balance is reserved to indicate that it is not available for new spending because
it has already been committed as follows:
(1) To pay debt service ($2,538,713),
(2) To liquidate contracts and purchase orders of the prior period ($10,053,752),
(3) To capital improvements ($29,462,122),
(4) To permanent cemetery endowments ($990,694),
(5) To police criminal investigation activity ($15,402),
(6) To inventory ($49,344),
(7) To Court Technology ($274,038),
(8) To Court Security ($203,331), and
(9) To Court Efficiency ($24,493).
Revenues for governmental functions overall totaled approximately $47,778,069 in the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2004, an increase of 10.7 percent or $4,628,103 from the fiscal year ended
September 30, 2003. Expenditures for governmental functions totaling $67,447,541 increased by
approximately 14.4 percent ($8,481,140) from the fiscal year ended September 30, 2003. In
fiscal year 2004, expenditures for governmental functions exceeded revenues by $19,669,472.
That amount was 24.4 percent more than the previous year's amount of $15,816,435.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City of College Station. At the end of the
current fiscal year, the unreserved, undesignated fund balance was $9,613,442 while the total
fund balance reached $10,702,952. The City's fiscal and budgetary policies require that the
General Fund's undesignated fund balance be at least equal to 15 percent of budgeted
expenditures, a percentage equal to 55 days of expenditures. The unreserved, undesignated
Management's Discussion and Analysis

(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
14
fund balance is approximately 24.2 percent of fiscal year 2004 budgeted expenditures and
exceeds the minimum requirement set by policy.
As a measure of the fund's liquidity, it is useful to compare both unreserved and total fund
balance to total fund actual expenditures. Unreserved fund balance represents 25.6 percent of
total general fund expenditures while total fund balance represents 28.5 percent of the same
amount. The fund balance continues to meet and exceed the Fiscal and Budgetary Policy of
having 15% of expenditures available in fund balance.
The fund balance of the General Fund decreased by $547,383 during the current fiscal year. Key
factors in this change were as follows:
• Overall revenues were up by approximately 8.3 percent, primarily due to an increase in
sales tax revenue and property tax revenue which resulted from strong retail sales and
new property values on the tax rolls.
• A 9.9 percent increase in licenses and permits which was a result of an increase in
building permit revenue. This increase came from commercial construction value.
• A 11.4 percent increase in fines due to more aggressive collection efforts and increases
in the amount of traffic fines,
• Overall total expenditures were up by approximately 11.4 percent, primarily due to
increases in department spending.
The Debt Service Fund ended the fiscal year with a fund balance of $2,538,713, all of which is
reserved for the payment of debt service. The net increase in fund balance during the current
fiscal year was $902,406. A $954,688 increase in debt service revenues and other financing
sources was more than enough to cover principal retirements and interest payments.
The Streets Projects fund ended the fiscal year with a fund balance of $19,160,316. This entire
amount is either reserved for encumbrances related to current capital projects or reserved for
future capital projects. The net decrease in fund balance during the current fiscal year was
$1,579,698. This decrease is attributable to the expenditure of funds on streets capital projects.
Proprietary Funds
The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide
financial statements but in more detail.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City's proprietary funds reported combined ending net
assets of $159,732,237. Approximately 18.2 percent ($29,119,651) of this total amount
constitutes unrestricted net assets. The remainder of net assets for the proprietary funds,
$130,612,586, is reported as follows:
(1) Invested in capital assets, net of related debt ($127,961,261), and
(2) Restricted for debt service ($2,651,325).
Operating revenues for proprietary activities totaled $70,174,236 for the fiscal year, an increase
of 1.3 percent or $916,872 from the previous fiscal year. Operating expenses decreased
$1,334,350 or 2.3 percent for the same period causing operating income to increase $2,251,222
or 19.3 percent. The proprietary funds reported net nonoperating expenses of $3,438,933 at the
end of fiscal year 2004 as compared to net nonoperating expenses of $826,277 in the previous

fiscal year. As a result of the increase in operating income and the increase in transfers in, the
increase in net assets, $16,554,122, was $8,690,158 more than the change in net assets for the
previous year.
Electric Fund
At the end of the fiscal year, the unrestricted net assets for the Electric Fund totaled $6,745,147.
The electric utility ended the fiscal year with working capital of $6,442,354, an increase of
$1,978,817 or 44 percent from fiscal year 2003. The majority of this increase is due to the $8.7
million settlement of a lawsuit that reduced working capital in fiscal year 2003. In addition, the City
decided to use current resources to provide for capital requirements for the electric system and
certain other capital acquisitions, a strategy that will help maintain a low debt to equity ratio,
maintain relatively low annual debt service payments, and allow the City to be more flexible as it
faces the challenges of deregulation within the electric utility industry.
The City’s policy with regard to its enterprise funds is to maintain at least 15 percent of annual
operating expenses in working capital, a percentage equal to 55 days of expenses. At September
30, 2004, Electric Fund working capital equaled approximately 16 percent.
Electric Fund operating revenues increased by 1.8 percent ($826,692) during fiscal year 2004 while
operating expenses decreased 5.1 percent ($2,175,502) during the same period resulting in a 70.6
percent increase ($3,002,194) in operating income. The large decrease in operating expenses was
due to the settlement of the lawsuit that occurred in fiscal year 2003. As a result of the decrease in
expenses and an increase in transfers in, net assets for the Electric Fund increased by
$6,929,599 during the fiscal year.
Water Fund
Unrestricted net assets for the Water Fund at September 30, 2004 were $7,462,386. Working
capital in the Water Fund at the end of fiscal year 2004 was $7,598,761, a decrease of
approximately 34 percent from fiscal year 2003. Water Fund working capital was 144 percent of
total operating expense and exceeds the minimum 15 percent requirement under the Council's
adopted policy.
Water Fund operating revenues decreased by 4.3 percent ($370,774) during fiscal year 2004 as a
result of slightly lower water consumption due to cooler temperatures and increased rainfall. During
the same period, operating expenses increased 7.9 percent ($384,487). As a result, operating
income decreased 20.3 percent to $2,964,899 in fiscal year 2004. The Water Fund's change in net
assets was $2,967,020, a 30.6 percent decrease over the previous year. This decrease is due to
the combination of reduced revenue and increased operating expenses.
Sewer Fund
The Sewer Fund's unrestricted net assets at the end of fiscal year 2004 were $5,740,214. The
Sewer Fund ended the fiscal year with a working capital balance of $4,977,173, which was 10
percent above fiscal year 2003. Sewer Fund working capital was 88 percent of total operating
expenses and is well above the minimum requirement for the fund.

City of College Station, Texas

Operating revenues in the Sewer Fund were $9,166,440, a $282,958 (3.2 percent) increase over
the previous fiscal year. Operating expenses increased from $5,599,591 to $5,679,897 or 1.4
percent while operating income rose by 6.2 percent from $3,283,891 to $3,486,543.
BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS
The final amended budget for fiscal year 2004 totaled $170,755,578 for all funds. Of this amount
$124,449,475 (73 percent) was budgeted for operations and maintenance expenditures, and
$46,306,103 (27 percent) was budgeted for capital improvement projects.
In the General Fund the final revised budgeted change in fund balance was $2,587,748 lower than
the original budgeted change and the significant items that comprise this difference can be briefly
summarized as follows:
• $1,025,414 - Encumbrances rolled over from previous fiscal year
• $250,000 - Additional funding for the Arts Council of Brazos Valley
• $220,556 - Matching funds for FEMA Fire Equipment Grant, Homeland Security Grant,
and Law Enforcement Block Grants
• $118,823 - Gainsharing distribution to employees
• $222,840 - Purchase of 3 homes and lots on Foster Street.
• $600,000 - Additional funding for cemetery land acquisition.
In the General Fund the actual change in fund balance was $4,150,441 higher than the final revised
budgeted change and the significant items that comprise this difference can be briefly summarized
as follows:
• $1,310,820 - Lower Capital Outlay expenditures primarily related to the delay in spending
the funds appropriated for cemetery land acquisition and delays in the purchase of other
capital items including the AM radio station and the ups system for 6 traffic signals.
• $1,219,871 - Additional tax revenue generated primarily from higher sales tax revenues.
Natural gas franchise and telecable franchise revenues were also higher than budget
primarily due to the renegotiation of these franchise agreements.

DEBT ADMINISTRATION
At the end of the 2004 fiscal year, the City of College Station had total debt outstanding of
$157,445,000. Of this amount, $81,790,000 (52.0 percent) comprised debt backed by the full faith
and credit of the City. The remaining debt is revenue bonds secured by specified revenue sources.

81,790,000$ 75,655,000$ 157,445,000$
The City's total debt increased by $2,070,000 (1.3 percent) during the current fiscal year. The
change in total debt was a result of the following:
• Issuance of $12.94 million in general obligation improvement and refunding bonds, and
$9.415 million in certificates of obligation; and
• Retirement of $9.025 million in general obligation bonds, $7.235 million in certificates of
obligation, and $4.025 million in utility revenue bonds.
Included in this debt activity was the issuance of $5.98 million in general obligation bonds to
refinance previously outstanding general obligation bonds totaling $6.15 million. As a result of this
refunding, the City will reduce its total debt service payments over the next ten (10) years by
approximately $412,000.
The City's General Obligation and Certificates of Obligation are rated AA- by Standard & Poors
("S&P") and Aa1 by Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's"). The underlying ratings for the City's
revenue bonds are A+ by S&P and A3 by Moody's. Because the City's last bond issue was
insured, those bonds were rated AAA with S&P and Aaa with Moody's.
Additional information on the City's long-term debt can be found in Note IV-F to the financial
statements on pages 53-57 of this report.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS AND RATES
The City of College Station has continued to grow and has not experienced some of the more
severe economic downturns faced by other cities, both in the state and in the nation. Indicators of
that growth include the following:
• An estimated population increase of 51 percent for the period of 1990 through 2004,
• An approximate $143 million increase to the ad valorem tax base during the fiscal year,
• A local economy that has maintained an unemployment rate of less than 4 percent since 1990,
and
• Sales tax revenue that grew by a strong 8.5 percent during the fiscal year.
Management's Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
20
Part of the reason the City has been insulated from some of the effects of the slower national and
state economy is due to the major influence of Texas A&M University on the local economy. The
Fiscal Year 2005 budget was prepared with the key goal of maintaining and improving quality of life
in College Station. This is done by continuing a prudent approach to City finances, meeting
strategic priorities identified by the City Council, maintaining service quality and excellence, and
enhancing and maintaining infrastructure and public facilities needed to provide excellent services.
The ad valorem tax rate for the 2005 fiscal year is $0.4640 per $100 valuation ($0.1942 for
operations and maintenance and $0.2698 for debt service). This tax rate will meet the debt service
obligations of the City and provide operations and maintenance funding in the General Fund.
Current and anticipated growth in the community has resulted in increased demands for services
and has put pressure on the City's utility systems. Consequently, the 2005 budget includes a 3%
revenue increase in the Sewer Fund. This rate increase is needed to fund the expansion of the Lick
Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant and other capital projects needed to maintain, rehabilitate, and
expand the sewer system infrastructure in order to keep up with the growth. Residential sanitation
rates were increased by 5% in FY 05 in order to maintain residential sanitation services. No
electric, water, or drainage rate increases were included in the 2005 fiscal year budget.
The fiscal year 2005 budget for capital improvements totals $44,400,853. The City anticipates
significant expenditures for infrastructure rehabilitation and improvements in the Southside area, an
older part of the City. These projects include rehabilitation of utilities, drainage ways, and streets.
Some of the more significant projects are as follows:
• Street rehabilitation in the Southside area ($1.2 million),
• Street rehabilitation in the Northgate area ($800,000)
• Extension of Dartmouth Drive (3.6 million),
• Greens Prairie Road/Arrington Road/Forest Ridge Access ($1.5 million),
• Intergenerational Park Upgrades ($310,000),
• Veteran's Park Phase II Design ($690,000),
• Soccer Field Lights at Veteran's Park and Central Park ($705,000),
• Steeplechase Park Development ($315,000),
• Wolf Pen Creek Upper Trails ($1.95 million)
• Police Station New Addition and Renovation ($3.3 million),
• Fire Station #3 Relocation ($1.7 million), and
• Northgate Gateway, water feature, and public restroom projects ($775,000).
The City plans to issue $5.71 million in general obligation bonds from the 2003 bond authorization
for the following: $2.997 million for street improvements, $553,000 for traffic projects, $850,000 for
parks projects, and $1.31 million for public facilities. The City also plans to issue $7.59 million in
certificates of obligations for the following: $1.15 million for street improvements, $975,000 for park
projects, $625,000 for Northgate projects, $950,000 for technology projects, $850,000 for public
safety equipment purchases, $500,000 for Business Park projects, $1,860,000 for Wolf Pen Creek
projects, $600,000 for cemetery development projects, and $80,000 for debt issuance costs. The
City also plans to issue $3.35 million in utility revenue bonds for electric capital projects, and $4.6
million for water capital projects.

Reconciliation of Governmental Funds Balance Sheet
to the Statement of Net Assets
As of September 30, 2004
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net assets
are different because:
Total Fund Balance per balance sheet: 59,310,586$
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial
resources and, therefore, are not reported in the funds. 137,256,840
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period
expenditures and, therefore, are deferred in the funds. 735,079
Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the costs
of certain activities, such as insurance, fleet maintenance,
equipment replacement and print/mail, to individual funds.
The assets and liabilities of certain internal service funds are
included in governmental activities in the statement of net assets. 17,764,721
Long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in
the current period and therefore are not reported in the funds. (83,843,540)

CITY OF COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS
Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures,
and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds
to the Statement of Activities
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities
are different because:
Net change in fund balance - total governmental funds: (3,911,578)$
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However,
in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated
over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation
expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded
depreciation in the current period. 8,600,749
The effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital
assets is to increase net assets. 5,266,838
Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current
financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds. 75,663
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to
governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-
term debt consumes the current financial resources of
governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any
effect on net assets. This amount is the net effect of these
differences in the treatment of long-term debt. (6,095,000)
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require
the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not
reported as expenditures in governmental funds. 20,190
Internal Service Funds are used by management to charge the costs
of certain activities, such as insurance, fleet maintenance,
equipment replacement and Print/Mail, to individual funds.
The net revenues of certain activities of internal service
funds is reported within governmental activities. 570,311
Change in Net Assets of governmental activities: 4,527,173$

I. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City of College Station, Texas ("City"), the financial reporting entity presented in these
financial statements, was incorporated in 1938 and is a municipal corporation incorporated
under the provisions of H.B. 901 of the Texas Legislature. The City operates under a Council-
Manager form of government and provides such services as authorized by its charter to
advance the welfare, health, comfort, safety and convenience of the City and its inhabitants.
The City of College Station entered into a joint venture in 1990 with the City of Bryan, Texas
creating the Brazos Valley Solid Waste Management Agency ("BVSWMA"). BVSWMA was
formed to combine landfill operations for the two cities. It is subject to joint control, and each
City holds a 50% interest and ownership in BVSWMA. The City's equity interest in BVSWMA is
reported in the Sanitation Fund. (See Note V-C).
The financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") as applied to state and local governments. The more significant
of the City's accounting policies are described below.
B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net assets and the statement
of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the City. For the most part,
the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental
activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported
separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges
for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses for a given
function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly
identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to
customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services or
privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment.
Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as
general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds.
Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as
separate columns in the fund financial statements.
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources
measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial
statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is
incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as
revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as
revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources
measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized
as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas
38
when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of
the current period. The City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 30
days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures are generally recorded when a liability
is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as
expenditures related to vacation, claims, and judgments, are recorded only when payment is
due.
Property taxes, other local taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period
are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and, therefore, have been recognized as
revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable
and available only when the City receives cash.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial
resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another
fund. All general tax revenues and other receipts that are not restricted by law or
contractual agreement to some other fund are accounted for in this fund. General
operating expenditures, fixed charges and capital improvement costs that are not paid
through other funds are paid from the General Fund.
The Debt Service Fund accounts for the financial resources accumulated for the payment
of principal, interest and related costs on long-term debt paid primarily from taxes levied by
the City. The fund balance of the Debt Service Fund is reserved to signify that the amounts
are restricted exclusively for debt service expenditures.
The Streets Capital Projects Fund accounts for the costs of new street construction, street
improvements, and traffic signalization made with funds provided by proceeds from the sale
of general obligation bonds and by investing those proceeds.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Electric Fund accounts for the activities necessary to provide electric services to the
residents of the City. These activities include administration, distribution system operations
and maintenance, transmission system operations and maintenance, new construction,
and financing and related debt service. Billing and collection services are accounted for as
an internal service fund.
The Water Fund accounts for the activities necessary to provide water services to the
residents of the City. These activities include administrative services, water production and
distribution system operations and maintenance, new construction, financing and related
debt service. Billing and collection services are accounted for as an internal service fund.
The Sewer Fund accounts for the activities necessary to provide sewer collection and
treatment services to the residents of the City. These activities include administrative
services, wastewater system operations and maintenance, new construction, financing and
related debt service. Billing and collection services are accounted for as an internal service
fund.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Internal service funds account for activities related to the operation and maintenance of the
City's radio and telephone systems; administration of health insurance provided to City
employees; the City's risk management activities, including general liability, unemployment,
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas
39
and workers' compensation claims and associated administrative expenses on a cost
reimbursement basis; utility billing and collection activities related to the City's electric,
water, and sewer utilities and residential and commercial garbage collection; activities
related to the management of the City's vehicles and heavy equipment, including
preventative maintenance and vehicle repair; activities related to the City's printing and mail
operations; and activities related to the purchase and replacement of vehicles and large
motorized equipment, telephone and radio systems, and technological infrastructure
equipment not budgeted in other funds.
Private sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1,
1989, generally are followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial
statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following
subsequent private sector guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds,
subject to this same limitation. The City has elected to not follow subsequent private sector
guidance.
In general, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide
financial statements. Exceptions to this rule are payments-in-lieu of taxes, indirect costs and
franchise fees, and other charges between the City's Electric, Water, and Sewer funds because
elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported in
the Statement of Activities.
Amounts reported as program revenues include (1) charges to customers or applicants who
purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given
function or segment and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the
operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items
not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items.
Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services in connection with
the fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City's
enterprise and internal service funds are charges for customer services including electric,
water, sewer, and sanitation fees, equipment purchase amounts, and risk management
charges. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of
services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and
expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to
use unrestricted resources first, and then restricted resources as they are needed.
D. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Assets or Equity
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are short term highly liquid investments that are (a) readily
convertible to known amounts of cash and (b) so near their maturity that they present
insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Therefore, for
purposes of the statement of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents (including restricted
assets) include demand accounts, repurchase agreements, and government securities and
agency notes with original maturities of three months or less when purchased.
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas
40
All cash, except for petty cash accounts, is deposited with the City's depository bank (First
American Bank, Bryan, Texas) in interest bearing accounts or is invested.
The City uses a pooling method to account for cash and cash equivalents. Equity in cash
and cash equivalents and interest income from the cash pool is allocated to the
participating funds on a monthly basis. The amount of the allocation is determined by
calculating a ratio of each fund's equity in the pool to the total pool.
Investments
Investments are made in accordance with the City's Investment Policy which was adopted
by the City Council in August 2004. This policy is applicable to all City funds and permits
investment in obligations of the U.S. Government or its agencies, repurchase agreements,
commercial paper, certificates of deposit, guaranteed investment contracts, public funds
investment pools, and money market mutual funds. This policy states that the City
Manager shall designate the City’s Investment Officer with whom responsibility and
authority for investment transactions reside.
The investments purchased under the provisions of the Investment Policy are managed to
maintain liquidity for meeting the City's needs for cash and to limit potential market risks in
periods of rising interest rates which depress the market value of securities. As a guideline,
maturity of securities should not exceed five years for cash management purposes, with an
optimum weighted average maturity of less than two years. Investments in securities of a
longer maturity than two years are considered prudent for funds maintained for capital
construction and debt service funds, if necessary to meet projected disbursement
schedules.
As a general guideline, the City’s cash management portfolio is designed with the objective
of meeting, over the course of full market cycles, the average return on three-month U.S.
Treasury Bills, or the average rate of federal funds, whichever is higher. These indices are
considered benchmarks for riskless investment transactions and therefore comprise a
standard for the portfolio's rate of return. The investment program seeks to augment rates
of return above this level. In a diversified portfolio, measured losses are inevitable and
must be considered within the context of the overall portfolio. The objective in investment
of construction funds is at least to match inflation increases in construction costs.
Active portfolio management includes the practice of selling securities prior to maturity and
using the proceeds to purchase other securities. Such "swaps" are performed for a variety
of valid reasons: to lengthen maturities as interest rates rise, to secure market profits and
shorten maturities as interest rates fall, and to take advantage of the differences in relative
yield between different types of securities and varying maturities. "Swap" analysis is the
responsibility of the City's Investment Officer and the decision to execute the "swap" rests
with him. To protect the portfolio from imprudent trading, no security may be sold until such
time as the current market value of the security plus interest earned from date of purchase
is at least equal to the purchase price of that security.
State statutes authorize the City to invest in fully-insured time deposits, direct debt
securities of the United States or its agencies, and fully collateralized repurchase
agreements. The repurchase agreements must be purchased pursuant to a master
repurchase agreement which specifies that the transaction be held in a safekeeping
account subject to the control and custody of the City.
Investments in security repurchase agreements may be made only with the City's
depository bank, with state or national banks domiciled in the state of Texas, or with
Notes to the Financial Statements

City of College Station, Texas
41
securities dealers reporting to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("Primary Dealers").
All securities are purchased delivery-vs.-payment and held in the City's name in a
safekeeping account at JP Morgan Chase Bank.
Investments of all funds consist mainly of U. S. Treasury and Agency securities, flexible
repurchase agreements, and investments in public funds investment pools (TexPool).
Investments are stated at fair value in accordance with GASB Statement No. 31,
Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External Investment
Pools.
The City also uses a pooling method to account for investments. Equity in investments and
interest income from the investment pool is allocated to the participating funds on a monthly
basis and is determined by calculating a ratio of each fund's equity in the investment pool to
the total pool.
GASB Statement No. 31 provides that governmental entities may report all investments at
fair value or they may elect to report certain money market investments and participating
interest-earning investment contracts at amortized cost. The City has elected to report all
investments at fair value.
Inventories and Prepaid Costs
Inventories are accounted for using the consumption method and are valued at year-end
based on cost, with cost determined using an average cost method.
Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond September 30,
2004, are recorded as prepaid costs with a reserve for prepaid items recognized in the
governmental funds in the fund level financial statements to signify that a portion of fund
balance is not available for other subsequent expenditures.
Interfund Transactions and Receivables/Payables
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements
outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either "due to/from other funds"
(i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or "advances to/from other funds" (i.e., the non-
current portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding balances between funds are
reported as "due to/from other funds." Any residual balances outstanding between the
governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide
financial statements as "internal balances."
Restricted Assets
In the Enterprise Funds, proceeds of utility revenue bonds, as well as resources set aside
for their repayment, are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their
use is limited by applicable bond covenants. In addition, customer utility deposits are
classified as restricted assets because the deposit remains the property of the customer
and is not available for operations. In the General Fund, restricted assets are comprised of
Municipal Court cash bonds, Municipal Court security funds, Municipal Court technology
funds, and police seizure funds, all of which are not available for operations.
Investment in Joint Venture
The Proprietary Funds' investment in joint venture is recorded using the equity method of
accounting. Required disclosures concerning the joint venture are presented in Note V-C.

City of College Station, Texas
42
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g.,
roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental
or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital
assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000
and an estimated useful life in excess of three years. Such assets are recorded at
historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital
assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.
Assets owned by the electric utility are capitalized in accordance with Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC) guidelines. Furthermore, assets owned by either the
water or sewer utilities are capitalized in accordance with the National Association of
Regulatory Utility Commissioners (NARUC) guidelines. The costs of normal maintenance
and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend the asset's useful
life are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are
constructed. In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 71,
interest is not capitalized during construction of capital assets of business-type activities
because interest is recovered currently in the City's established rate.
Depreciation of all assets is recorded and calculated using the straight-line method over the
following estimated useful lives:
Electric System 1-50 Years
Water System 2-50 Years
Sewer System 2-50 Years
Infrastructure 10-50 Years
Buildings and Building Improvements 5-50 Years
Land Improvements 10-45 Years
Machinery and Equipment 5-20 Years
Motor Vehicles 3-12 Years
Furniture, Fixtures and Office Equipment 5-20 Years
The amounts reported for governmental-type infrastructure are based on an appraisal
conducted during fiscal year 2004.
Compensated Absences
Employees are credited with vacation at rates of 10 to 20 days per year, depending upon
length of service. Carryover of unused vacation time from one year to the next is allowed
for a maximum of two years. Upon termination, the respective employees are paid for any
accrued vacation not taken (up to the two-year maximum). Accumulated vacation is
accrued when earned in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements.
No liability has been recorded in the governmental fund financial statements.
Employees are credited with sick leave at the rate of one day per month. There is no
maximum to the number of sick days that each employee can accumulate. Because the
City does not pay employees for unused accumulated sick leave, no related liability has
been recorded in the financial statements.
Notes to the Financial Statements

City of College Station, Texas
43
Long-Term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements and in the fund financial statements for the
proprietary fund types, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as
liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary
fund statement of net assets. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs,
are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method. Bonds
payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount and deferred amounts
on refundings. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over
the term of the related debt.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and
discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of
debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances
are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as
other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt
proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.
Fund Equity
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for
amounts that are not available for appropriation or are legally restricted by outside parties
for use for specific purpose. Designations of fund balance represent tentative management
plans that are subject to change.
E. Budgetary Control
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data:
1. Prior to September 1, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating
budget for the fiscal year commencing the following October 1. The operating budget
includes proposed expenditures and the means for financing them.
2. All budget requests are compiled by the Office of Budget and Strategic Planning and then
presented with comparative and supporting data to the Mayor and City Council for review.
3. Public hearings are properly advertised and conducted at City Hall for taxpayer comments.
4. Prior to September 27, the budget is legally enacted through passage of an ordinance.
5. The City Council must approve all transfers of budgeted amounts between departments
within any fund and any revision that alters the total expenditures of any fund. An amount
is also budgeted each year for contingencies which may arise. The Council has authorized
the City Manager to make budget transfers for contingencies if the amount does not exceed
$15,000. All other transfers must be approved by City Council. City Council may transfer
amounts among individual budget line items within major expenditure categories during the
year, but no such transfer may increase the overall total budget. Budgeted amounts as
originally adopted were not significantly changed by such transfers during the year.
6. In accordance with the City Charter, the budget may be amended after the following
conditions are met: (a) The City Manager certifies that there are available revenues in
excess of those estimated in the budget. (b) The City Council holds a public hearing on
the supplemental appropriation. (c) The City Council approves the supplemental
Notes to the Financial Statements

44
appropriation. Management may not amend the budget without seeking the approval of the
City Council.
II. Reconciliation of Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
A. Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and
the Government-Wide Statement of Net Assets
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance--total
governmental funds and net assets--governmental activities as reported in the government-
wide statement of net assets. The details of this $71,913,100 difference are as follows:
When capital assets (land, buildings, equipment, etc.) that are to be used
in governmental activities are purchased or constructed, the costs of
those assets are reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
However, the statement of net assets includes those capital assets
among the assets of the City as a whole.
Cost of Capital Assets 219,108,772$
Accumulated Depreciation (81,851,932)
Net Capital Assets 137,256,840$
Long-term liabilities applicable to the City's governmental activities are
not due and payable in the current period and, accordingly, are not
reported as fund liabilities in the governmental funds. All liabilities, both
current and long-term, are reported in the statement of net assets.
Bonds Payable (81,790,000)$
Accrued Interest Payable (541,471)
Compensated Absences (1,512,069)
(83,843,540)$
Because the focus of governmental funds is on short-term financing,
some assets will not be available to pay for current period expenditures.
Those assets (for example, receivables) are offset by deferred revenues
in the governmental funds and, thus, are not included in fund balance.
Deferred revenue for emergency medical services, paving assessments,
and property taxes shown on the governmental fund statements is not
deferred on the statement of net assets.
Deferred Property Tax Revenue 321,488$
Deferred Emergency Medical Services Revenue 391,795
Paving Assessment Revenue 21,796
735,079$
Internal service funds are used by management to charge certain
activities, such as self insurance, print-mail services, and fleet
maintenance, to individual funds. The assets and liabilities of certain
internal service funds are included in governmental activities in the
statement of net assets.

B. Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Statement of
Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances and the Government-Wide
Statement of Activities
The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances
includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances--total governmental funds and
changes in net assets of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement
of activities. One element of that reconciliation explains that "Governmental funds report capital
outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is
allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense." The details
of this $8,600,749 difference are as follows:
Capital Outlay 11,968,127$
Depreciaiton Expense (3,367,378)
Net Adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances-
total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets
of governmental activities 8,600,749$
Another element of that reconciliation states that "The net effect of various miscellaneous
transactions involving capital assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to increase net
assets." The details of the $5,266,838 difference are as follows:
Donations of capital assets increase net assets in the
statement of activities, but do not appear in the governmental
funds because they are not financial resources. 5,266,838$
Another element of that reconciliation states that "The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds,
leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the
principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds.
Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report
the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued,
whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities." The details
of this $6,095,000 difference are as follows:
Debt issued or incurred:
Issuance of General Obligation Bonds
and Certificates of Obligation 22,355,000$
Principal Retirement (16,260,000)
Net Adjustment to decrease net changes in fund balances-
total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets of
governmental activities 6,095,000$
Another element of that reconciliation states that "Some expenses reported in the statement of
activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported
as expenditures in governmental funds." The details of this $20,190 difference are as follows:

3. Encumbrance accounting is employed in governmental funds. Encumbrances (e.g.,
purchase orders, contracts) outstanding at year end are reported as reservations of fund
balances and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities.
B. Excess of Expenditures Over Appropriations
The amounts of any excesses of expenditures/expenses over appropriations during fiscal year
2004, and the funds in which they occurred are as follows:
Fund Amount
Fleet Maintenance $ 26,091
Print/Mail 52,339
Electric 320,000
Solid Waste Collection 79,050
Higher than expected expenses for salaries and benefits and supplies resulted in the $26,091
excess in the Fleet Maintenance Fund, and the $52,339 excess in the Print/Mail Services Fund
is a result of higher than expected salaries and benefits, supplies, maintenance and purchased
property services expenditures.
In the Electric fund higher than expected operating expenses resulted in the $320,000 excess,
and the $79,050 excess in the Solid Waste Collection fund is the result of higher than expected
purchased property services expenses.
IV. Detailed Notes on All Funds
A. Cash and Investments
Deposits
State statutes require that all deposits in financial institutions be fully collateralized with
depository insurance or by U.S. Government obligations or its agencies and instrumentalities or
by direct obligations of Texas or its agencies and instrumentalities that have a market value of
not less than the principal amount of the deposits. At year end, the City's demand deposits at
First American Bank were entirely covered by federal depository insurance or by collateral held
by the City's custodial bank (Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas) in the City's name. At year
end, the carrying amount of the City's demand deposits was $1,063,205, and the bank balance
was $1,690,279.
Investments
The City's investment program is guided by State statutes, by various City ordinances, and by
the City's investment policy which amplifies those guidelines and prescribes how the City will
operate its investment program in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. This policy
further sets forth (a) the basic principles governing the investment of City funds, (b) the
objectives of the City's investment program, and (c) the authority, responsibilities, limitations,
documentation and requirements to be used in the administration and operation of the City's
investment program.

• Obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities;
• Direct obligations of the State of Texas or its agencies;
• Other obligations, the principal of and interest on which is unconditionally guaranteed
or insured by the State of Texas or the United States or its agencies;
• Obligations of states, agencies, counties, cities, and other political subdivisions of any
state having been rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment
rating firm and having received a rating of not less than "A" or its equivalent;
• Certificates of deposit issued by state and national banks domiciled in Texas that are
secured by obligations qualified as acceptable collateral;
• Certificates of deposit issued by savings and loan associations domiciled in Texas that
are secured by obligations qualified as acceptable collateral;

• Fully collateralized repurchase agreements having a defined termination date, secured
by qualified obligations, pledged with a third party, and placed through a primary
government securities dealer as defined by the Federal Reserve, or a bank domiciled
in Texas;
• Money-market mutual funds that are SEC registered no-load funds with dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of 120 days or less; or
• Public funds investment pools.
The City's investment policy prohibits the substitution of collateral on repurchase agreements
without prior approval by the City. Also, reverse repurchase agreements are prohibited by the
policy.
The City's investment portfolio is comprised of the following classifications of securities:
As a Percentage
Bank Demand Accounts 1.00%
U.S. Government Agencies and Instrumentalities Securities 77.00%
Texas Local Government Investment Pool 21.00%
Fidelity Money Market Mutual Fund 1.00%
Total 100.00%
The City's investments are categorized to give an indication of the level of risk assumed by the
City at year end. Category 1 includes securities that are insured or registered, or securities
held by the City or its agent in the City's name. Category 2 includes uninsured and
unregistered securities, with securities held by the counterparty's trust department or agent in
the City's name. Category 3 includes uninsured and unregistered securities, with securities
held by the counterparty in the City's name, or held by the counterparty's trust department or
agent, but not in the City's name.
All securities held at September 30, 2004 were Category 1 investments with the exception of
Texpool. The fair value of all cash, cash equivalents, and investments was as follows:

Fair Value
Bank Demand Accounts 1,063,205$

"TexPool" is a local government investment pool created and managed by the Texas State
Treasurer to invest funds on behalf of Texas political subdivisions. The pool operates on a
$1.00 net asset value basis and allows same day or next day redemptions and deposits.
Interest is allocated daily based on portfolio earnings and participant account balances. The
City's investment in TexPool is stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The fair value of
Texpool's investments as a whole was at least 102% of the book value as of September 30,
2004. The fair value of the City's investment is the same as the value of the pool shares.
TexPool is not managed by the City, and the City does not possess securities that exist in either
physical or book entry form. Consequently, these securities have not been classified.
Under the Texas Public Funds Investment Act, TexPool must maintain an AAA or equivalent
rating from at least one nationally recognized rating agency. TexPool is currently rated AAAm
by Standard and Poor's.
The revenue bond ordinances require disclosure of the investments held by the reserve fund.
Sufficient investments exist in the pool to adequately meet reserve fund requirements. A
detailed list of those securities is available in the office of the Director of Finance and Strategic
Planning.

The City intends to retire all of its general long-term liabilities, plus interest, from ad valorem
taxes. The proprietary fund type long-term debt will be repaid, plus interest, from the operating
revenues of the Electric, Water, and Sewer Funds.
General Obligation Bonds and Certificates
The City issues general obligation bonds to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of
major capital facilities. General obligation bonds are direct obligations and pledge the full faith
and credit of the City.
The City is required by bond covenants to create from ad valorem tax revenues a sinking fund
sufficient to pay the current interest and principal installments as they become due. In addition
to the sinking fund, there are a number of limitations and restrictions contained in the various
general obligation bond and certificate indentures. The City is in compliance with the significant
limitations and restrictions at September 30, 2004.
On May 1, 2004 the City issued $12.94 million in General Obligation Improvement and
Refunding Bonds with a true interest cost of 4.2%. The proceeds from the sale of the bonds will
be used for (1) drainage improvement for greenways, (2) construction and acquisition of
improvements to City streets, traffic control systems, parks, and public facilities, (3) refund

City of College Station, Texas
56
portions of the outstanding ad valorem tax supported obligations of the City, and (4) to pay the
costs incurred in connection with the issuance of the Bonds.
On May 1, 2004 the City issued $9.415 million in Certificates of Obligation for the cost of (1)
construction of streets, drainage improvements, street lighting, and water and sewer
improvements, (2) electric and wastewater utility projects, and (3) to pay the costs incurred in
connection with the issuance of the Certificates. The true interest rate of this debt is 4.53%.
Revenue Bonds
Utility system revenue bonds are secured by the net revenues of the Electric, Water, and Sewer
Funds as defined in the respective bond indentures. The City pledges income derived from the
acquired or constructed assets to pay the debt service. In addition, the City is required to
maintain debt service funds and bond reserve funds for all outstanding revenue bonds.
Amounts in the reserve fund are to be used to pay principal and interest on outstanding bonds
at any time sufficient funds are not available in the bond interest and redemption fund. The
bond indentures require that the City accumulate reserves to an amount equal to the average
annual principal and interest requirements of all outstanding bonds secured by the net
revenues of the system.
Arbitrage Compliance
Arbitrage provisions of the Internal Revenue Tax Act of 1986 require the City to rebate to the
federal government excess arbitrage earnings from bond proceeds. As of September 30,
2004, the City is not obligated to pay any future rebates.
Defeasance
On May 1, 2004 the City issued general obligation refunding bonds with an average interest
rate of 4.34% to refund $6.15 million of series 1991, 1994, and 1995 general obligation bonds
with an average interest rate of 5.42%. As a result of this refunding, the City will reduce its total
debt service payments over the next 10 years by approximately $517,000 and will obtain an
economic gain (difference between the present values of the debt service payments on the old
and new debt) of $412,041. The proceeds from the issuance of the bonds were used to
purchase U.S. Government securities that were placed in an irrevocable trust with an escrow
agent to provide debt service payments on the bonds being refunded. As a result, the refunded
bonds are considered to be defeased, and the liability has been removed from the
governmental activities column of the City's financial statements.
In prior years, the city defeased certain revenue refunding bonds totaling $61,080,000 and
certain general obligation bonds and certificates of obligation totaling $18,392,126 by placing
the proceeds of the refunding bonds in an irrevocable trust to provide for all future debt service
on the refunded bonds. Accordingly, the trust account assets and the liability for the defeased
bonds are not included in the City's financial statements.
At September 30, 2004, the outstanding principal balance of the defeased revenue refunding
bonds was $11,500,000 and the outstanding principal balance of the defeased general
obligation bonds and certificates of obligation was $9,000,000.
The assets, liabilities, and financial transactions of all of these trust accounts and the liability for
refunded (defeased) bonds are not reflected in the financial statements of the City.
The tables below reflect refunded debt outstanding at September 30, 2004 and net of any
amounts to be paid or retired by the trustee on October 1, 2004:

V. OTHER INFORMATION
A. Property Taxes
Property tax is levied each October 1 on the assessed (appraised) value listed as of the prior
January 1 for all real and business personal property located in the City. Taxable assessed
value represents the appraisal value less applicable exemptions authorized by the City Council.
Taxes are due October 1 and are delinquent after the following January 31. Tax liens are
automatic and become enforceable as of January 1 of each year. Taxes become delinquent
February 1 and are subject to interest and penalty charges. The tax rate to finance general
governmental services including debt service was 46.53 cents per $100 of assessed valuation
for the year ended September 30, 2004. Under current state statutes, the City's ability to
increase the levy for property taxation is subject to a maximum rate of $2.50 per $100 valuation.
The Brazos County Appraisal District ("Appraisal District") is responsible for the recording and
appraisal of property for all taxing units in Brazos County. The Appraisal District is required to
assess property at 100 percent of its appraised value. Real property must be reappraised at
least every three years. The City may, at its own expense, require annual reviews by the
Appraisal District through various appeals and, if necessary, legal action. Under this system, if
the rate, excluding tax rates for bonds and other contractual obligations adjusted for new
improvements, exceeds the rate for the previous year by more than eight (8) percent, qualified
voters of the City may petition for an election to determine whether to limit the tax rate to no
more than eight (8) percent above the tax rate of the previous year.
Brazos County bills and collects the property taxes for the City.
B. Risk Management
A government entity, such as the City of College Station, is faced with many risks. These risks
can be generally subdivided into four categories of loss: direct property loss, indirect property
loss, liability loss, and personnel losses. The City employs a combination of risk management
strategies to provide acceptable levels of protection regarding these potential risks.
The City is self-insured for health benefits, and the plan is administered by Blue Cross Blue
Shield. This activity is accounted for in the Employee Benefits Fund which is funded monthly by
contributions from employees and from the operating funds of the City. These contributions are
determined based on an analysis of prior year claims and administrative costs and a forecast of
future claims and administrative costs. The City has a stop-loss insurance policy that limits its
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas

liability to $100,000 per individual per year with an aggregate, annual liability of
$1,000,000. The liability for outstanding losses includes $499,375 for claims incurred but not
reported as of September 30, 2004.
In fiscal year 2004 the City was insured by the Texas Municipal League Intergovernmental Risk
Pool, (TMLIRP) for all of its real and personal property and mobile equipment. TMLIRP is
funded by calculated contributions from the City's operating funds and provides all of the claims
handling for these lines of coverage. The City carries a $100,000 deductible per occurrence on
its property insurance policy with TMLIRP. Property insurance covers all direct losses and
some indirect losses.
On all lines of liability coverage, the City is self-insured. The City has procured excess liability
coverage through State National Insurance Company that is A.M. Best rated A-VII. The self-
insured retention ("SIR") is $250,000 per claim. The claims are handled by a third party claims
administrator ("TPA") located in Houston, Texas.
The City is also self-insured on its workers' compensation coverage. The City opted for excess
workers' compensation coverage with a SIR of $250,000 per claim feature. The City's carrier is
State National Insurance Company, and the TPA handles all of the workers' compensation
claims. In the event of a simultaneous liability and workers' compensation claim, only one SIR
applies.
The City’s runoff claims for liability and worker compensation is estimated to be less than
$50,000. Historically, the City’s incurred but not reported claims (IBNR) have been immaterial
to its approach to claim funding.
Lastly, the City also uses its Unemployment Fund to account for self-insurance activity involving
claims filed under unemployment compensation laws. Monthly contributions based on a
percentage of payroll are determined each year during the budget process and are used to fund
this activity.
Settlements have not exceeded coverages for each of the past three fiscal years.
The liabilities for insurance claims reported in each of the funds are based on Governmental
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 10, which requires that a liability for claims be
reported if information prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates that it is
probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and if the
amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. These liabilities include an estimate for
incurred but not reported claims. Changes in the balances of claims liabilities for the self-
insurance funds that are accounted for as Internal Service Funds for fiscal years 2004 and
2003 are as follows:
2004 2003
Unpaid Claims, October 1 418,859$ 151,495$
Incurred Claims (including IBNR's) 2,664,925 826,091
Claims Paid (2,473,520) (558,727)
Unpaid Claims, September 30 610,264$ 418,859$
C. Joint Venture
In May 1990, the City of College Station joined the City of Bryan in creating BVSWMA. The
primary purpose of BVSWMA is to achieve economy of scale savings for the participants
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas
60
through joint ownership and use of regional waste management facilities. Each city holds a
50% interest and ownership in BVSWMA.
BVSWMA is governed by an Administrative Board of Trustees ("Board") comprised of the City
Manager and a staff person from each city; in addition, the Mayors of each city serve alternating
two-year terms on the Board. The Board has complete responsibility for the daily operating
activities of BVSWMA. After Board approval, the BVSWMA annual budget is presented for
approval by both cities as a part of their regular budget.
The City's share of BVSWMA's change in net assets for fiscal 2004 was ($308,301).
State and federal laws and regulations require BVSWMA to place a final cover on its Rock
Prairie landfill site when it stops accepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and
monitoring functions at the site for thirty years after closure. Although closure and postclosure
care costs will be paid only near or after the date that the landfill stops accepting waste,
BVSWMA reports a portion of these closure and postclosure care costs as an operating
expense in each period based on landfill capacity used as of each balance sheet date. The
$4.2 million reported as accrued postclosure maintenance costs at September 30, 2004,
represents the cumulative amount reported to date based on the use of 61 percent of the
estimated capacity of the landfill. BVSWMA will recognize the remaining estimated cost of
closure and postclosure care of $2.6 million as the remaining estimated capacity is filled.
These amounts are based on what it would cost to perform all closure and postclosure care in
2004. BVSWMA expects to close the landfill in the year 2008. Actual cost may be higher due
to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in regulations.
The following is a summary of information from the audited financial statements of BVSWMA as
of September 30, 2004:

D. RETIREMENT PLAN
The City has adopted GASB Statement No. 25, Financial Reporting for Defined Benefit Pension
Plans and Note Disclosures for Defined Contribution Plans, and GASB Statement No. 27,
Accounting for Pensions by State and Local Government Employees. These statements require
the following disclosures:
Plan Description
The City provides pension benefits for all of its full-time employees through a nontraditional,
joint contributory, hybrid defined benefit plan in the state-wide Texas Municipal Retirement
System ("TMRS"), one of 794 administered by TMRS, an agent multiple-employer public
employee retirement system.
Benefits depend upon the sum of the employee's contributions to the plan, with interest, and the
City-financed monetary credits, with interest. At the date the plan began, the City granted
monetary credits for service rendered before the plan began of a theoretical amount equal to
two times what would have been contributed by the employee, with interest, prior to
establishment of the plan. Monetary credits for service since the plan began are 200 percent of
the employee's accumulated contributions. In addition, the City can grant as often as annually
Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2004
City of College Station, Texas
62
another type of monetary credit referred to as an updated service credit which is a theoretical
amount which, when added to the employee's accumulated contributions and the monetary
credits for service since the plan began, would be the total monetary credits and employee
contributions accumulated with interest if the current employee contribution rate and City
matching percent had always been in existence and if the employee's salary had always been
the average of his salary in the last three years that are one year before the effective date. At
retirement, the benefit is calculated as if the sum of the employee's accumulated contributions
with interest and the employer-financed monetary credits with interest were used to purchase
an annuity.
The plan provisions are adopted by the governing body of the City, within the options available
in the state statutes governing TMRS and within actuarial constraints also in the statutes. Plan
provisions for the City were as follows:
Deposit Rate: 7%
Matching Ratio (City to Employee): 2 to 1
Members Vested After: 5 years
Members can retire at age 60 and above with 5 or more years of service or with 20 years of
service regardless of age. A member is vested after 5 years. The plan provisions are adopted
by the governing body of the City, within the options available in the state statutes governing
TMRS and within the actuarial constraints also in the statutes.
Contributions
Under the state law governing TMRS, the actuary annually determines the City contribution
rate. This rate consists of the normal cost contribution rate and the prior service cost
contribution rate, both of which are calculated to be a level percent of payroll from year to year.
The normal cost contribution rate finances the currently accruing monetary credits due to the
City matching percent, which are the obligation of the City as of an employee’s retirement date,
not at the time the employee’s contributions are made. The normal cost contribution rate is the
actuarially determined percent of payroll necessary to satisfy the obligation of the City to each
employee at the time his/her retirement becomes effective. The prior service contribution rate
amortizes the unfunded (overfunded) actuarial liability (asset) over the remainder of the plan’s
25-year amortization period. The unit credit actuarial cost method is used for determining the
City contribution rate. Both the employees and the City make contributions monthly. Since the
City needs to know its contribution rate in advance for budgetary purposes, there is one-year
delay between the actuarial valuation that is the basis for the rate and the calendar year when
the rate goes into effect. (i.e. December 31, 2003 valuation is effective for rates beginning
January 2005).

Post Retirement/Employment Benefits
In addition to providing pension benefits, the City provides certain health care benefits for
retired employees as established by City Resolution No. 9-13-90-5.10, which was passed and
approved by the City Council on September 13, 1990. According to this resolution, employees
who retire while working for the City and their dependents are eligible to remain on the City’s
health plan as long as the employee makes monthly premium payments. During fiscal year
2004, twelve former employees were covered under this arrangement. Prior to the passage of
this resolution, employees who reached retirement while working for the City were eligible to
remain on the City’s self-insured health plan and have their monthly premiums paid for by the
City. During fiscal year 2004, one retiree was covered under this plan; however, claims filed by
this retiree were not material.
The City also provides health benefits as required by the Federal Government under the
Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 ("COBRA"). COBRA requires
employers that sponsor group health plans to provide continuation of group coverage to
employees and their dependents under certain circumstances where coverage would otherwise
end. Terminated employees who qualify under COBRA pay premium costs for themselves and
dependents. Expenditures are recognized as claims are submitted. COBRA participants are
reimbursed at the same levels as active employees. The amount of expenditures related to
COBRA claims for the year ended September 30, 2004 was not material. As of September 30,
2004 the City has 9 COBRA participants.
E. Deferred Compensation Plan
The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal
Revenue Code ("IRC") 457. The plan, as amended, is available to all employees and permits
them to defer a portion of their salary until future years. The plan funds are not available to
employees until termination, retirement, death, or emergency.
All amounts of compensation deferred under the plan (until paid or made available to the
employee or other beneficiary) were placed in trust for the exclusive benefit of the participants
and the beneficiaries. This action is in accordance with changes made to IRC Section 457.
Since the City is no longer the Plan Administrator or the trustee, the assets of the plan are no
longer a reportable fund in the City's basic financial statements.
F. Commitments and Contingencies
Construction Commitments
The City has active construction projects as of September 30, 2004. At year-end, the
construction commitments with contractors for specific projects were as follows:

H. Revenue Bond Coverage
All the net revenues of the Electric, Water, and Sewer Funds are pledged for the payment of
debt service of the revenue bonds and other indebtedness payable from those revenues. Net
revenues, as defined by the revenue bond resolutions, include substantially all of the revenues
and expenses of the above named funds other than certain interest income and expense, and
depreciation and amortization. These bond resolutions further require that the net revenues, as
defined, equal at least 1.40 times the average annual debt service on all revenue bonds and
other indebtedness payable from those revenues and 1.25 times the maximum annual debt
service on all revenue bonds and other indebtedness payable from those revenues. The
maximum annual debt service is defined as the maximum principal and interest payments to be
paid in any one year remaining in the life of the bonds, and the average annual debt service is
defined as the sum of all principal and interest payments due over the remaining life of the
bonds divided by the remaining life of the bonds. The City is in compliance with these
requirements.
