Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
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, 2013. 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 and deferred outflows of resources
of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources at the close of the most
recent Fiscal year by $438,675,077 (net
position). Of this amount $77,812,508
(unrestricted net assets) may be used to meet
the government’s ongoing obligations to
citizens and creditors.
The City’s total net position increased by
$16,824,965 during the fiscal year.
At the close of the current fiscal year, the City’s
governmental funds reported combined ending
fund balances of $65,929,436 an increase of
$3,187,007 when compared to the prior year.
Approximately 22.2 percent of the combined
governmental funds ending fund balance, or
$14,626,901 are available for spending at the
City’s discretion (unassigned fund balance).
The City’s total amount of outstanding debt is
$241,890,000 which is a net increase of
$355,000 over last year. This increase is
comprised of several factors: the issuance of
general obligation improvement bonds and
certificates of obligation for new projects;
refunding of general obligation improvement
bonds, certificates of obligation, and utility
revenue bonds; and retirement of general
obligation improvement bonds, certificates of
obligation and utility revenue bonds. Details
can be found in the notes to the financial
statements.

statements. The City’s basic financial statements are comprised of three components:

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
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 position presents information on all of the City’s assets and liabilities,
and deferred inflows/outflows of resources with the differences reported as net position. Over
time, increases or decreases in net position 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 position changed
during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the
underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows.
Thus revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result
in cash flows in future fiscal periods, 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, fiscal services, police, information technology, planning and development,
fire, municipal services, streets, drainage, traffic, park and recreation, and citizen and
neighborhood resources. The business-type activities of the City include electric, water,
wastewater, sanitation, and the Northgate parking garage. The government-wide financial
statements can be found on pages 30-31.
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 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.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
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 Projects Fund, all of 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 nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements
elsewhere in this report. The governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 32-
35.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund, Debt Service Fund,
Special Revenue Funds, and Capital Projects Funds. A budgetary comparison statement has
been provided for the General Fund, Debt Service Fund, Special Revenue Funds and Capital
Projects 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, wastewater, sanitation, and parking
activities of the City. The Electric, Water, and Wastewater funds are considered to be
major funds of the City, while the remaining funds (Sanitation and Northgate Parking
Garage) are presented in aggregate as nonmajor enterprise funds. Individual fund data
for the nonmajor 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 fleet maintenance and utility customer services. It also uses internal service funds to
account for equipment replacement; employee benefits; and unemployment, workers’
compensation, and property and casualty insurance. All of these services benefit both
the governmental activities and the business-type activities and have been split between
governmental activities and 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 36-38.

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. The
notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 39-68.
Required Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report presents
certain required supplementary information, found on pages 69-71, concerning the City’s
progress in funding its obligation to provide pension benefits and other postemployment benefits
to its employees and the General Fund budget to actual comparison.
Combining Statements
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with the nonmajor governmental
funds, the nonmajor enterprise funds, and the internal service funds are found on pages 73-108.
GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANYALYSIS
As noted earlier, net position may serve as a useful indicator of government’s financial position.
For the City, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows
of resources by $438,675,077 at the close of the most recent fiscal year. The largest portion of
the City’s net position (78.1 percent) reflects its investment of $342,529,731 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.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
An additional portion of the City’s net position, $18,332,838 (4.2 percent) represents resources
that are subject to external restriction on how they may be used. The remaining balance of
unrestricted net assets, $77,812,508 (17.8 percent) may be used to meet the government’s
ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. At the end of the current fiscal year, the City was
able to report positive balances in all three categories of net position, 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. The City’s net position increased by $16,506,701 as a result of fiscal year 2013
operations, as compared to the increase of $14,510,522 for fiscal year 2012 operations. The
year over year difference is mostly attributable to increases in sales and mixed beverage taxes.
The following table provides a summary of the City’s operations for the year ended September
30, 2013 and highlights key elements of the change in the City’s net position:

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS
As noted previously, 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, unassigned fund balance may
serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of
the fiscal year. The types of major governmental funds reported by the City include the General
Fund, Debt Service Fund, and Streets Projects Fund. Other governmental funds of the City are
reported as nonmajor funds.
At of the end of the fiscal year 2013, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending
fund balances of $65,929,436. Approximately 22.2 percent ($14,626,901) of this total amount
constitutes unassigned 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:
Nonspendable $ 6,727,238
Restricted $ 39,594,226
Committed $ 4,008,439
Assigned $ 972,632
A detailed breakdown of the fund balance can be found in Note IV. I. Components of Fund
Balances.
Revenues for governmental functions totaled $70,140,348 in fiscal year ended September 30,
2013, an increase of 1.3 percent or $892,099 from the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012.
Expenditures for governmental functions totaling $88,444,236 decreased by approximately 3.4
percent or $3,138,596 from the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Other financing sources
and uses (net) was $21,490,895. As a result, in fiscal year 2013, revenues for governmental
functions exceeded expenditures by $3,187,007.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City of College Station. At the end of the
current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance was $14,626,901 while the total fund balance
was $15,925,532. The City’s fiscal and budgetary policies require that the General Fund’s fund
balance be at least equal to 15 percent of budgeted expenditures, a percentage equal to 55
days of expenditures. The total fund balance is approximately 26.2 percent of fiscal year 2013
amended budgeted expenditures and exceeds the minimum requirement set by policy.
As a measure of fund’s liquidity, it is useful to compare both unassigned and total fund balance
to total fund actual expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents 23.0 percent of total
general fund expenditures, while total fund balance represents 25.1 percent of total general fund
expenditures. The total fund balance for the general fund continues to meet and exceed the
Fiscal and Budgetary Policy of having 15 percent of expenditures available in fund balance.
The General Fund’s fund balance decreased by $567,162 during the current fiscal year due
primarily to an increase in public safety expenditures for police and fire.

(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
The Debt Service Fund ended the fiscal year with a fund balance of $3,433,255. This entire
amount is reserved for the payment of debt service. The net decrease in fund balance during
the current fiscal year was $369,188. This decrease is due to the refunding of bonds during
fiscal year 2013 that will reduce future debt service needs. Revenues received during the year
were enough to cover principal retirements and interest payments.
The Streets Projects Fund ended the fiscal year with a balance of $13,537,316. This entire
amount is reserved for encumbrances related to current capital projects and for future capital
projects. The net increase in fund balance during the current fiscal year was $1,422,394. This
increase was attributable to bond proceeds that were issued during this fiscal year.
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
position of $227,744,004. Of this amount, 16.2 percent ($36,847,830) constitutes unrestricted
net position. The remainder of net position for the proprietary funds, $190,896,174, is reported
as follows:
Invested in capital assets, net related debt ($189,315,182), and
Restricted for debt service ($1,580,992).

increase of 0.7 percent or $959,377 from the previous fiscal year. Operating expenses
increased $1,567,080 or 1.4 percent for the same period. Operating income was $22,280,412
for the fiscal year. The proprietary funds reported net non-operating expenses of $7,286,491 at
the end of fiscal year 2013 as compared to net non-operating expenses of $7,189,802 in the
previous fiscal year. Also, the Proprietary Funds reported a prior period adjustment of $731,597
(see Note IV.G) resulting in an overall increase of $8,441,290 in net position for fiscal year
2013.
Electric Fund
At the end of the fiscal year, the unrestricted net position for the Electric Fund totaled
$5,657,640. 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, 2013, Electric Fund working capital equaled approximately 20.1
percent of annual operating expenses, as compared to 18.2 percent at September 30, 2012.
Electric Fund operating revenues decreased by 1.1 percent ($1,066,321) during fiscal year
2013, while operating expenses increased 1.0 percent ($870,587) during the same period. This
resulted in operating income of $10,293,678. The operating income when combined with the net
non-operating expenses, net capital contributions and transfers, and prior period adjustment of
$301,740 (see Note IV.G) resulted in an increase in net position of $1,138,013 in the Electric
Fund during the fiscal year.

In the General Fund the final amended budget showed a decrease in fund balance of
$4,815,633. The actual change in fund balance was a decrease of $567,162. The following are
some of the key factors in the change in fund balance:
Revenues were higher than the estimate due to modest increases in sales tax revenues.
Expenditures were overall lower due to reduced spending during the fiscal year.
Strategic planning is a driving force in the preparation of the City’s budget. The City Council has
identified the following areas of strategic priority:
Good Governance
Financially Sustainable City
Providing Core Services and Infrastructure
Neighborhood Integrity
Diverse Growing Economy
Improving Mobility
Sustainable City

Management’s Discussion and Analysis
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
(Unaudited)
City of College Station, Texas
The following are some key fiscal and economic indicators for College Station including:
The total certified value of property in the City of College Station for 2013 is $5,944,312,987.
This is an increase over last year of 3.6%. This increase was due in part to new property
values from new construction of $197,336,049 added to the tax rolls. Existing property
values increased by approximately 1.5% in 2013.
Since 2009 taxable values have increased from approximately $3.3 billion to approximately
$6.2 billion currently.
Through August 2013 the local unemployment rate was 5.6%. This is below the state
average of 6.3% and the national average of 7.3%.
Sales and mixed drink beverage tax revenue, the largest revenue stream in the General
Fund saw a healthy increase of 7.4% in fiscal year 2013.
Preparation of the fiscal year 2014 budget was again a challenging budget to prepare, but it
reflects the policy and strategic direction of this City Council. The budget was prepared in a
conservative manner, given the reductions and efficiency improvements over the last several
years. One of the considerations made when deciding whether to add or increase a service to
the budget was whether the item had been reduced in the last year or two. The budget was
prepared to give a new City Manager as much flexibility as possible in the implementation of
Council policy direction, while still addressing the ability to provide key services to the citizens
and visitors of College Station.
Organizational Changes and Streamlining
From FY09 through FY13, significant organization restructuring was implemented that led to
budget reductions each year and elimination of a number of positions. These reductions
provided resources that were utilized for public safety priorities during this time. There are
additional changes being implemented in FY14, the result of continued review of the
organization’s structure and services provided.
The organizational changes in fiscal year 2014 include the elimination of 6.5 budgeted Full-Time
Equivalent (FTE) positions. Within the Parks and Recreation Department, the 3 positions
responsible for the operations of the Conference Center were eliminated with the only impact on
the FY14 budget being the FTE count. A part-time Community Development Project Specialist
was included for FY13 only, and was removed in FY14. Also, as part of the City’s continuing
review of processes and cost savings, 3 positions were removed from the Cemetery operations,
with the functions being outsourced with a current landscape service provider resulting in a net
budget reduction of $52,217. All positions eliminated for fiscal year 2014 were vacant.
Selected Increased Service Levels
The following are some significant increases in service levels in the fiscal year 2014 budget.
Core Services and Infrastructure – Police Department – To address the growth of the
community the approved budget for the Police Department includes 4 new positions. These
include an additional School Resource Officer, a Patrol Sergeant, a Crime Scene Technician
and a Detention Officer.

Officer position was approved.
Tax Rate
The fiscal year 2014 budget was prepared using the effective tax rate of 42.5958 cents per $100
assessed valuation. This is a net decrease of 0.4729 cents from the fiscal year 2013 tax rate of
43.0687 cents. The fiscal year 2014 approved tax rate reduces the Debt Service portion of the
tax rate by 0.2582, and reduces the General Fund portion of the tax rate by 0.2147 cents.
Utility Rates
The fiscal year 2014 budget does not include a rate increase in the Electric Fund, Water Fund,
Wastewater Fund, Drainage Fund or residential sanitation rates. The budget includes a 15
percent rate increase in commercial rates in the Sanitation Fund. This rate increase is needed
to provide the resources needed to provide Sanitation services to commercial customers. This is
the first increase in commercial sanitation rates since 2006.
Capital Improvements
The fiscal year 2014 budget for capital improvements total $39,639,259. The City anticipates
that capital project expenditures for general government, special revenue and utility capital
projects will be significant. Infrastructure rehabilitation and improvement projects are also
scheduled for fiscal year 2014. Projects underway include a number of street projects from 2008

Reconciliation of the Balance Sheet of Governmental Funds
to the Statement of Net Position
September 30, 2013
Total fund balance per balance sheet:65,929,436$
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of net position
are different because:
Capital assets used in governmental activities are not financial
resources, therefore are not reported in the
governmental funds balance sheet 242,046,195
Debt refundings resulting in a defeasance of debt - the difference between the
reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the old debt -
should be deferred and amortized 1,430,043
Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period, therefore
are not reported in the governmental funds balance sheet.
Due within one year (9,146,103)
Due in more than one year (104,554,846) (113,700,949)
Interest payable on long-term debt does not require current financial
resources and is not reported in the governmental funds balance sheet. (493,056)
Allowance for potentially forgiven loans receivable (85,016)
Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current period expenditures
and, therefore, are reported as unavailable revenue in the funds 1,176,841
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs
of certain activities, such as insurance, fleet maintenance, and
equipment replacement to individual funds. The assets and liabilities
of the internal service funds are included in the government-wide
statements of net position (net of the amount allocated to
business-type activities).

CITY OF COLLEGE STATION, TEXAS
Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances
Governmental Funds
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
34
Net change in fund balance - total governmental funds 3,187,007$
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities differ as a result of the following:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the government-wide
statement of activities the cost of those assets are allocated over their estimated
useful lives as depreciation expense. This is the amount of capital assets
recorded in the current period.9,684,235
Governmental funds do not recognize the total amount of revenue recognized in the government-wide
statement of activities related to the sale of redevelopment home properties.138,946
The effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets (e.g., sales, trade ins,
and capital contributions) is to increase/decrease net assets.6,221,566
Some property tax and loan revenues will not be collected for several
months after the the City's fiscal year end. These are not considered "available" revenues
in the governmental funds until received. 1,422,536
Amortization of interest as the result of debt refundings is reported in the government-wide statement of
activities but does not require the use of current financial resources. Therefore, amortized interest
expense is not reported as an expenditure in governmental funds.(176,985)
Depreciation expense on capital assets is reported in the government-wide statement of
activities but does not require the use of current financial resources. Therefore, depreciation
expense is not reported as an expenditure in governmental funds.(12,251,408)
The issuance of long-term debt (i.e., bonds, certificates of obligation) 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 position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance
costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas the amounts are
deferred and amoritized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these
differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.
Bonds issued (14,505,000)
Bond principal retirement 8,245,000
Payment to refunded bond escrow agent 6,054,452 (205,548)
Bond premiums are recognized as an other financing source in the governmental funds, but are
combined with the bond liabilities on the statement of net position. Premiums are amortized over the
life of the bonds. This is the amount by which bond premium issued, and bond refunding losses
exceeded amortization.(714,236)
Long-term estimated liabilities are recognized as expenses in the Statement
of Activities as incurred, but are recognized when current financial
resources are used in the governmental funds.
Compensated absences (249,132)
Net pension obligation (934,208)
Other post retirement benefits (899,906) (2,083,246)
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities, such as
insurance, fleet maintenance, and equipment replacement to individual funds. The net revenue
of the internal service funds is reported with governmental activities net of the amount
allocated to business-type activities.
Change in net position 2,984,533
Net amount allocated to business activities (873,586) 2,110,947

For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
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 as 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 accounting and reporting policies of the City relating to the funds included in the accompanying basic
financial statements conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(GAAP) applicable to state and local governments. Generally accepted accounting principles for local
governments include those principles prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB),
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants in the publication entitled State and Local Governments-
Audit and Accounting Guide and by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (when applicable). As allowed
in Section P80 of GASB’s Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, the
City has elected not to apply Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements and Interpretations,
Accounting Principles Board Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins of the Committee of Accounting
Procedure issued after November 30, 1989. 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. The more significant accounting policies of the
City are described below.
The City’s basic financial statements include the accounts of all City operations. The criteria for including
organizations as component units within the City’s reporting entity, as set forth in Section 2100 of GASB’s
Codification of Governmental Accounting and Financial Reporting Standards, include whether:
The organization is legally separate (can sue and be sued in their own name)
The City holds the corporate powers of the organization
The City appoints a voting majority of the organization’s board
The City is able to impose its will on the organization
The organization has the potential to impose a financial benefit/burden on the City
There is a fiscal dependency by the organization on the City.
Based on the aforementioned criteria, the City has no component units.
B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (e.g., the statement of net position and the statement of activities)
report information on all of the 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 is 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 programs 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.

City of College Station, Texas
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation
Measurement focus refers to the type of information a given fund presents; basis of accounting refers to when
revenues and expenditures are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of
accounting relates to the timing of the measurement made, regardless of the measurement focuses applied.
The government-wide financial statements and fund financial statements for proprietary funds are reported
using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. The economic
resources measurement focus means all assets and liabilities (whether current or noncurrent) are included on
the statement of net position and the operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases
(expenses) in total net position.
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. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are
recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. “Measurable” means the amount of the
transaction can be determined and “available” means collectible within the current period or soon enough
thereafter to be used 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 measureable 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 that are restricted, committed, or assigned to
expenditure for the payment of principal and interest on long-term debt paid primarily from taxes levied by
the City. Financial resources that are being accumulated from principal and interest in future years are also
reported in the Debt Service Fund.
The Streets Projects Fund accounts for the costs of new street construction, street improvements, and
traffic signalization made with funds provided primarily 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 services. 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 operation and
maintenance, new construction, and financing and related debt services. Billing and collection services are
accounted for as an internal service fund.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
The Wastewater Fund accounts for the activities necessary to provide wastewater services to the residents
of the City. These activities include administrative services, wastewater system operation and
maintenance, new construction, and financing and related debt services. 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 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 wastewater utilities and residential and commercial garbage
collections; activities related to the management of the City’s vehicles and heavy equipment, including
preventative maintenance and vehicle repair; 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.
In general, the effect of internal fund 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 Wastewater 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 operation 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 operation revenues of the City’s enterprise funds are charges for
customer services including electric, water, wastewater, and sanitation fees; while internal service funds
revenues are for equipment purchase amounts and risk management charges. Operating expenses for
enterprise fund and internal services 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
restricted resources first, and then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D. Assets, Liabilities and Net Position 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, investments pools, money market mutual funds,
certificates of deposit and agency securities notes with original maturities of three months or less when
purchased.
All cash, except for petty cash accounts, is deposited with the City’s depository bank 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 pooled cash are 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
Investments
Investments are made in accordance with the City’s Investment Policy which was adopted by the City Council
in October 2012 for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. This policy is applicable to all city funds and
permits investment in obligations of U.S. Government or its agencies, repurchase agreements, commercial
paper, certificates of deposit, public funds investment pools, and money market mutual funds. This policy
states that the City’s Executive Director of Business Services 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 with a maturity of more 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 of investment in construction funds
should at least 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 differences in relative yield between different types of securities and varying maturities. “Swaps”
analysis is the responsibility of the City’s Investment Officer and the decision to execute the “swap” rests with
this designated Officer. 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 securities dealers reporting to the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York (“Primary Dealers”). All securities are purchased delivery versus payment and held in the
City’s name in a safekeeping account at The Bank of New York.
Investments of all funds may consist of Agency securities, money market mutual funds, certificates of deposit
and investments in public funds investment pool. 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. In 2011, the City adopted GASB No.59, Financial Instruments Omnibus. See Note IV-A regarding 2a7-
like 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.
Inventories, Assets Held for Resale and Prepaid Costs
Inventories are accounted for using the consumption method and are valued at year-end based on cost, with
costs determined using an average cost method.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
Assets held for resale include redevelopment properties, properties purchased and constructed with the
express intent of resale. These assets are reported at cost in the governmental funds. Cemetery plots are
another example of assets held for resale in the governmental funds. City ordinance stipulates the percentage
of cemetery plot sales to be allocated to the operational fund. These assets held for resale in the non-major
governmental Community Development and Cemetery funds are reported as inventory in the financial
statements and accounted for using the purchases method.
Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond September 30, 2013, are recorded as
prepaid costs with a reserve for prepaid items recognized in the governmental funds in the fund level financial
statements to indicate that a portion of fund balance is not available for other subsequent expenditures.
Interfund Transaction 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
governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements
as “internal balances.”
Transactions between Funds
The City allocates an indirect cost percentage of administrative services paid through the General Fund along
with other indirect costs deemed necessary for the operation of the proprietary funds, internal service funds
and the other governmental funds.
Restricted Assets
In the Enterprise Funds, proceeds of utility revenue bonds and certificates of obligations, 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.
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.
Capital Assets
Capital assets include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks,
and similar items) and 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 Wastewater 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 assets 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 ASC 980 Regulated Operations, interest is not capitalized during
construction of capital assets of business-type activities because interest is recovered currently in the City’s
established rate structure.
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
Wastewater system 2-50 Years

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.
Changes in compensated absences for the year ending September 30, 2013 were as follows:
Internal service funds predominantly serve the governmental funds. All internal service funds are included as
part of the above totals for governmental activities. All of the Utility Customer Service Fund and a portion of
the remaining internal service funds are included in the Business-type Activities on the Statement of Net
Position. For the governmental activities, accrued vacation is generally liquidated by the general fund.
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 position. Bond premiums and discounts
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 refunding. Bond issuance
costs, with the exception of bond insurance are expensed in the period incurred.
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 fund balance classifications that comprise a
hierarchy based primarily on the specific purposes for which amounts in those funds can be spent. In the fiscal
year ended September 30, 2009, the City adopted the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement
(GASBS) number 54, “Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions.” GASBS 54
provides for and the City uses the following classifications:
Nonspendable Fund Balance includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form.
The “not in spendable form” criterion includes items that are not expected to be converted to cash, for
example, inventories and prepaid amounts. It also includes the long-term amount of loans receivable as well
as property acquired for resale.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
Restricted Fund Balance is reported when constraints placed on the use of resources are either (a) externally
imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (b) imposed by
law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed Fund Balance includes amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to limitations
imposed by the government’s highest level of decision-making authority. The City Council is the highest level
of decision making-authority for the government that can, by approval of a resolution prior to the end of the
fiscal year, commit fund balance. Once adopted, the limitation imposed by the resolution remains in place until
a similar action is taken (the approval of another resolution) to remove or revise the limitation.
Assigned Fund Balance includes amounts that are constrained by the government’s intent to be used for
specific purposes, but are neither restricted nor committed. The governing body, the City Council, has
authorized the Assistant City Manager to assign fund balance. Assignments, unlike commitments are not
permanent and a formal action is not required for the removal of an assignment. Finally, assignments may not
result in a deficit in Unassigned Fund Balance.
Unassigned Fund Balance is the residual classification for the General Fund. This classification represents
fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds nor been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific
purposes within the General Fund. In other governmental funds, if expenditures incurred for specific purposes
exceeded the amounts restricted, committed, or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a
negative unassigned fund balance.
When fund balances are available for use and the usage requirements met, the City reduces the committed
amounts first, followed by the assigned amounts and then the unassigned amount lastly. When both restricted
and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, and then
unrestricted resources as they are needed.
E. Budgetary Control
The City follows these procedures in establishing budgetary data:
1. Prior to September 1, City Manager submits to City Council a proposed operating budget for the upcoming
fiscal year beginning 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 & Financial Reporting 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.
Departments 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 without Council approval. 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 appropriation. Management may not amend the budget without seeking the approval of the City
Council.

City of College Station, Texas
F. Budget Basis of Accounting
The City prepares its annual budget on a basis (budget basis) which differs from a GAAP basis. The budget
and all transactions are presented in accordance with the City’s method (budget basis) in the Schedule of
Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Budget and Actual - General Fund to provide a
meaningful comparison of actual results with the budget. The differences between budget and GAAP basis in
the General Fund are that reimbursements and transfers of indirect costs are shown as Reimbursed
Administration and interfund loan transactions are treated as transfers for budget basis. Consistent with the
purchases method, assets held for resale are treated as expenditures for budget purposes.
II. Minimum Fund Balance/Operating Reserve Policies
The unobligated (unassigned) fund balance in the General Fund should be at least 15% of the annual
budgeted General Fund expenditures. This percentage is the equivalent of 55 days expenditure. An
additional amount of 3.0% should be maintained for extraordinary items or contingencies. Cash and
investments alone should be equivalent to 30 days operating expenditures.
The working capital (current assets less current liabilities) in the enterprise funds should be maintained at 15%
of total operating expenses or the equivalent of 55 days. Cash and Investments alone should be equivalent to
30 days of operations.
III. Stewardship, Compliance, and Accountability
A. Budgetary Information
The Council approved three budget amendments during fiscal year 2013. These three budget amendments
included the following appropriations:
1. Budget appropriations are adopted at the fund level for all funds except the General Fund. In the General
Fund, budget appropriations are adopted at the department level. Expenditures in excess of
appropriations for each fund are prohibited by the City Charter. Appropriations lapse at the end of the
budget year if they have not been expended or lawfully encumbered.
2. Formal budgetary integration is legally enacted and employed as a management control device during the
year for all funds.
3. Encumbrance accounting is employed in governmental funds. Encumbrances (e.g., purchase orders,
contracts) outstanding at year end are reported as assignments of fund balances and do not constitute
expenditures or liabilities.

IV. Detailed Notes on All Funds
A. Cash and Investments
Cash and investments are accounted for within the pooled cash fund of the City. The City records
investments at fair value in accordance with GASB Statement No. 31, Accounting and Financial Reporting
for Certain Investments and for External Investment Pools.
Cash and cash equivalents, investment balances and interest income are allocated to the City’s
participating funds on a monthly basis. The amount of the allocation is based on each fund's proportional
equity to total pooled equity.
Interest rate risk: In accordance with the City's Investment Policy, interest rate risk is managed by limiting
the weighted average maturity of the investment portfolio to two years (approximately 720 days) or less
and by limiting the maximum maturity of any security purchased to five years or less.
Credit risk: Investments authorized by the City’s policy are those approved by the revised State of Texas
Public Funds Investment Act of 1997 and 2011 and the Texas Public Collateral Act of 1989. These
investments include the following:
1. Direct obligations of the United States government: U.S. Treasury Bills, U.S. Treasury Notes, and U.S.
Treasury Bonds as well as Bonds or other interest bearing obligations for which the principal and interest
are guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the United States government and rated not less than A or its
equivalent by at least one nationally recognized investment rating firm.
2. Federal Agencies and Instrumentalities including but not limited to, discount notes, callables and
debentures of the Federal National Mortgage Association (FNMA), the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB),
the Federal Farm Credit Bank (FFCB), and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC).

3. Time Certificates of Deposit, insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or its
successor, or the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund or its successor, in state or national banks.
Any deposits exceeding FDIC insurance limits shall be collateralized at 102% of the face amount of the
Certificate of Deposit by securities listed in 1 - 2 above and held by the City's custodial bank or the
custodial bank of the institution the CD’s are held. Bids for Certificates of Deposit may be solicited orally, in
writing, electronically or using any combination of these methods.
4. Repurchase Agreements with a defined termination date of 90 days or less collateralized by a combination
of cash and securities listed in 1 - 2 above. Collateral must have a minimum market value of 102% of the
repurchase agreement, and must be held by the custodian bank or other independent third-party custodian
contracted by the City. Bond proceeds may be invested in flexible repurchase agreements with maturity
dates not exceeding the expected final project expenditure if a formal bidding process is followed and
properly documented for IRS purposes.
5. Commercial Paper maturing within 180 days carrying a minimum rating not less than A-1 or P-1 or
equivalent by two nationally recognized rating agencies, or; rated not less than A-1 or P-1 equivalent by
one nationally recognized rating agency plus secured by an irrevocable letter of credit issued by a
domestic bank.
6. AAA rated Money Market Mutual Funds registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission that
invest exclusively in investments described in this section.
7. AAA-rated Investment Pools organized under the Texas Interlocal Cooperation Act that follow the
requirements in the Public Funds Investment Act and which have been specifically approved by the City.
The City is a voluntary participant in two external investment pools, Texpool and TexSTAR. The pools are
2a7-like pools, which are not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an
investment company, but have a policy that it will, and does, operate in a manner consistent with the
SEC’s Rule 2a7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. This type of pool uses amortized investment
costs rather than market values to compute participant share values. Furthermore, the pools in which the
City participates seek to maintain a stable $1 net asset value per share of unit. Accordingly, the fair value
of the City’s position in these pools is substantially the same as the market value of the shares in each of
the pools. As of September 30, 2013, the City’s investments in Texpool and TexSTAR were rated by
Standard & Poor's as AAAm.
Credit concentration: With the exception of U.S. Treasury securities and authorized pools, the City's
Investment Policy limits the investment in a single security type or with a single financial institution to 30%.
It also limits the overall investment in Federal Agency securities to 70% and Certificates of Deposit to 30%.
As of September 30, 2013, the issuers whose securities represented more than 5% of the City's
investment portfolio were as follows: American Momentum Bank (12%) and Citibank (16%).
Custodian credit risk – deposits: In the case of deposits, this is the risk that in the event of a bank failure,
the government's deposits may not be returned to it. The City of College Station's City Council has
approved a depository services contract which governs its depository relationship. This contract requires
that deposits not covered by depository insurance be collateralized at 105%. The City’s depository bank
collateralizes the city’s funds at 110%.
Custodian credit risk – investments: For an investment, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the
counterparty, the government will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities
that are in the possession of an outside party. The City's investment portfolio requires that all security
transactions be conducted on a Delivery-vs.-Payment basis and that all securities be held by a third party
custodian and evidenced by safekeeping receipts.

For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
The composition of due to/due from balances as of September 30, 2013 is as follows:
Internal loans (inter-fund advances) of $200,000 each from the Water, Wastewater and Electric Funds to
the Economic Development Fund were recorded during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008. The
loans partially funded the purchase of real property related to an economic development project and are
repayable in even installments over five years, however, with the pending sale of the property, the
repayments were deferred to FY14.
E. Operating Leases
The city acquired property on University Drive known as the Chimney Hill Property in fiscal year 2009 with
the intention to build a convention center on the property. Hotel tax funds were used to finance
$7,000,000 of the purchase, with the remainder of the purchase price coming from Certificate of
Obligation, Series 2009. The purchase price was allocated between the land, $6,555,190, and an existing
building on the property, $3,084,795. As of September 30, 2013, the building carried a net value of
$2,776,315 and $308,480 in accumulated depreciation.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
F. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for
deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources,
represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as
an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. For the period ended September 30, 2013, the
City reported $3,163,052 in charges on debt refunding as deferred outflow of resources. These charges
are reported on the government wide Statement of Net Position and will be amortized over the life of the
refunding debt.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for
deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources,
represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as
an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has only one type of item, which arises only
under a modified accrual basis of accounting, which qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly the
item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental
funds report unavailable revenues from the following sources:
These amounts are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts
become available.
G. Prior Period Adjustment
For the period ending September 30, 2013 the City has chosen early implementation of Statement No. 65
of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). Statement No. 65 establishes new treatment
for debt issuance costs and charges related to debt refunding. Prior to GASB No. 65 implementation the
City would capitalize/defer and subsequently amortize all debt issuance costs over the life of the related
bond(s). GASB No. 65 requires that all debt issuance costs, with the sole exception of any prepaid
insurance costs, be recognized in the period incurred, and the removal of all existing capitalized/deferred
charges (net of accumulated amortization) from the City’s government wide Statement of Net Position.
These amounts, net of accumulated amortization expense, have been recognized in FY2013 and are
included in the City’s government wide Statement of Activities as a prior period adjustment to beginning
fund balance. The adjustment is an expense in the amount of $1,367,007. Of this amount, $(557,167) is
related to Governmental Activities, and $(809,840) to Business-type Activities.
Also, prior to implementing GASB No. 65, the City would defer the interest charges associated with debt
refunding and would net this with the debt liability on the Statement of Net Position. GASB No. 65 requires
that the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the old debt be deferred
and amortized as a component of interest expense over the remaining life of the old debt or new debt
whichever is shorter. The Statement of Net Position contains a prior period adjustment to beginning fund
balance. The adjustment to the Governmental Activities is $1,607,028 and the adjustment to the
Business-type Activities is $78,243.

H. Long-Term Debt
The City elected to implement GASB Statement 65 for fiscal year 2013. A summary of long-term debt
transactions, including current portion, for the year ended September 30, 2013 follows:
Due to the implementation of GASB No. 63 and 65, deferred loss from refunding transactions of
$1,665,943 has been reclassified from a liability to a deferred outflow of resources and is no longer
presented in the long-term debt table presented above.

the utility customer service fund, are included as part of the above totals for governmental activities.

In 2009, the City issued $31,315,000 in Certificates of Obligation. $2,600,000 of the proceeds was used to
purchase land for a convention center site. Council no longer intends to build a convention center,
therefore, causing a change in use to the property. In order to maintain the tax exempt status of the 2009
Certificates of Obligation, Council approved to defease the convention center bonds on November 21,
2011. On December 1, 2011 the bonds were defeased. $2,728,149 was placed in an escrow account with
Bank of New York to cover the principal and interest amount of the bonds until their call date of February
15, 2019. Also, in 2009, the City issued $5,145,000 in Certificates of Obligation to pay for a portion of the
construction of a new municipal landfill. The City of College Station jointly owns Brazos Valley Solid Waste
Management Agency Inc. (BVSWMA, Inc.) with the City of Bryan. BVSWMA Inc. has pledged to repay the
$5,145,000 plus interest to the City of College Station. As of September 30, 2013 BVSWMA Inc. owed the
City $4,330,000.
Revenue Bonds
Utility system revenue bonds are secured by the net revenues of the Electric, Water, and Wastewater
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 of 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, 2013, the City did not
have an arbitrage rebate liability.
Defeasance
In prior years, the City issued refunding bonds to defease certain outstanding bonds for the purpose of
consolidation and to achieve debt service savings. The City has placed the proceeds from the refunding
issues in irrevocable escrow accounts with a trust agent to ensure payment of debt service on the
refunded bonds.
Accordingly, the trust account assets and liabilities for the defeased bonds are not included in the City’s
financial statements. Although defeased, the refunded debt from these earlier issues will not be retired
until the call dates have come due or until maturity if they are not callable issues. On September 30, 2013,
the City’s escrow balance for bonds defeased on December 1, 2011 was $2,361,288. The defeased bonds

are not callable until February 15, 2018. The escrow balance for bonds defeased on July 23, 2013 was
$12,880,654. The defeased bonds are not callable until February 1, 2014 and February 15, 2014.
I. Components of Fund Balance
Fund balances for governmental funds at September 30, 2013 are as follows:
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 43.0687 cents per $100 of assessed valuation for the year ended September 30, 2013. 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 faces many risks. These risks generally can be
divided into four loss categories: 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 from these exposures.
The City is self-insured for health benefits, and the plan is administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of
Texas. This activity is accounted for in the Employee Benefits Fund, which is funded monthly from
employee contributions and City operating funds. 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’s stop loss insurance policy limits the City’s liability to $150,000 per individual per year, with an
aggregate attachment point for the last 12 months of $7,464,041. The liability for outstanding losses
includes $959,723 for claims incurred but not reported as of September 30, 2013.
In fiscal year 2013, City real and personal property and mobile equipment was insured by Affiliated FM,
A.M. Best rated A+, financial category XV. Affiliated FM premiums were funded by calculated
contributions from the City's operating funds. Affiliated FM provided claims handling for these coverage
lines. The City carried a property insurance policy deductible between $100,000 and $250,000 per
occurrence, depending on type of loss. Property insurance covered all direct losses and some indirect
losses.
The City self-insures all liability coverage lines. Licensed adjusters in the City’s Risk Management office
process liability claims with assistance from Abercrombie, Simmons & Gillette (AS&G), a Third Party
Administrator, which also handles the City’s Workers' Compensation claims. In the event of a simultaneous
liability and Workers' Compensation claim, only one SIR (self-insured retention) applies.
To further protect the City from catastrophic loss, the City carries excess liability and Workers’
Compensation coverage through Star Insurance Company; A.M. Best rated B++, financial category X. The
self-insured retention ("SIR") for 2013 was $250,000 per claim.
Liabilities in the property and casualty fund and the Workers’ Compensation fund are reported to the
carrier when it is probable a covered loss has occurred and the loss amount can be reasonably estimated.
Liabilities include an amount for claims incurred but not reported. Based on the most recent actuarial
study, the City has recorded a potential liability of $425,458 in the property and casualty fund and a
potential liability of $256,366 in the Workers’ Compensation fund. The results of the process to estimate
the claims liability is not exact, as it depends on many complex factors, such as inflation, changes in legal
doctrines, and damage awards. Accordingly, claims are re-evaluated periodically to accommodate the
effects of inflation, recent claim settlement trends (including frequency and amount of pay-outs), and other
economic and social factors. Settlements have not exceeded self-insured retention in each of the past
three fiscal years.
As a reimbursing employer, the City uses the Unemployment Fund to pay qualified claims filed under the
Texas Unemployment Compensation Act. Monthly contributions to fund this activity are based on a
percentage of payroll determined annually during the budget process.
The liabilities for insurance claims reported in each of the funds are based on Governmental Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 10, which requires a liability for claims to be reported if information prior to
the issuance of the financial statements indicates it is probable 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 accounted for as Internal Service Funds for fiscal years 2013
and 2012 are as follows:
C. Joint Venture
In 1990 the Brazos Valley Solid Waste Management Agency (“BVSWMA”) was formed under a joint solid
waste management agreement between the Cities of College Station and Bryan. College Station and
Bryan agreed to cooperatively operate a joint facility for the proper disposal of solid waste for the two cities
and outside customers. Each City reported 50% ownership in BVSWMA. The City of College Station
served as landfill operator. This basic structure is how BVSWMA operated until 2010.
In February 2010 the City Councils for the City of Bryan and the City of College Station approved Articles
of Incorporation for BVSWMA, Inc. a Local Government Corporation under the provisions of Subchapter D
of Chapter 431, Texas Transportation Code; and Chapter 394, Texas Local Government Code. In March
2010, the City Councils of Bryan and College Station approved by-laws for BVSWMA, Inc., which
establishes the power to issue debt and to acquire land.
The powers of BVSWMA, Inc. are vested in a 7 member Board of Directors, with each City Council
appointing 3 members and the 7th member to be selected by an approval process set forth in the Articles
of Incorporation and deemed to have been appointed by the Cities.
On September 13, 2010, Bryan City Council, College Station City Council and the BVSWMA, Inc. Board of
Directors formalized the creation of BVSWMA, Inc. and the dissolution of BVSWMA, effective October 1,
2010, with the approval and execution of a (n):
Borrowed Employee Agreement between the City of College Station and BVSWMA, Inc.;
Asset Transfer and Debt Reimbursement Agreement between BVSWMA, Inc., the City of College
Station and the City of Bryan;
Agreement between the City of College Station, the City of Bryan and BVSWMA, Inc. regarding the
Assignment and Assumption of Contracts and Payables;
Final Settlement Agreement and Release related to the final settlement and dismissal of the certain
lawsuit referred to as City of Bryan, Texas v. City of College Station, Texas, Cause No. 08-001626-
CV-272 in the 272nd District Court of Brazos County, Texas, ("the Lawsuit"); consider the Agreed
Motion to Dismiss; and, consider the Agreed Order of Dismissal.
Subsequent to the end of the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, BVSWMA transferred all of its assets
to BVSWMA, Inc. College Station reports BVSWMA, Inc. as a joint venture with the City of Bryan and
recognizes 50% ownership in BVSWMA, Inc. in the City’s financial statements.
Per GASB 14, a Joint Venture (JV) is a legal entity or other organization that results from a contractual
arrangement and that is owned, operated, or governed by two or more participants as a separate and
specific activity subject to joint control, in which the participants retain (a) an ongoing financial interest or

(b) an ongoing financial responsibility. Joint control means that no single participant has the ability to
unilaterally control the financial or operating policies of the Joint Venture.
An ongoing financial interest includes an equity interest, as defined in paragraph 72, and any other
arrangement that causes a participating government to have access to the Joint Venture’s resources. An
equity interest in a Joint Venture is manifest in the ownership of shares of Joint Venture stock or by
otherwise having an explicit, measurable right to the net resources of a Joint Venture that is usually based
on an investment of financial or capital resources by a participating government. An equity interest is
explicit and measurable if the Joint Venture agreement stipulates that the participants have a present or
future claim to the net resources of the Joint Venture and sets forth the method to determine the
participants’ shares of the Joint Venture’s net resources. Per the BVSWMA, Inc. by-laws, paragraph 8.05,
Section 431.107 of the Texas Transportation Corporation Act entitles the Cities, at all times, to have the
right to equally receive the income earned by the corporation. Also, per BVSWMA, Inc.’s by-laws,
paragraph 4.03a, the corporation, with the approval of the Cities, is authorized to issue short-term debt;
however, the Cities shall be given the first opportunity to provide these funds before the Board incurs debt.
This would result in the City of College Station providing an investment of financial resources to BVSWMA,
Inc.
An ongoing financial responsibility for a Joint Venture occurs if a participating government is obligated in
some manner for the debts (see paragraph 33 of GASB 14) of the Joint Venture, or if the Joint Venture’s
continued existence depends on the continued funding by the government. Per paragraph 33 of GASB 14
– A primary government is obligated in some manner for the debt of an organization if it is legally obligated
to assume all or part of the debt in the event of default.
Per Article XIV, paragraph 14.03, of the Articles of Incorporation of BVSWMA, Inc., upon dissolution of the
corporation:
A. the assets of the Corporation shall be distributed equally between the Cities; and
B. any remaining liabilities of the corporation shall be shared equally between the Cities.
State and federal laws and regulations required BVSWMA, Inc. to place a final cover on its Rock Prairie
landfill site when it stopped accepting waste and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions
at the site for thirty years after closure. The Rock Prairie Road landfill stopped accepting waste in July
2011, and the Twin Oaks Landfill in Grimes County began accepting waste. During the fiscal year ending
September 30, 2013, the installation of the remaining final cover at the Rock Prairie Road Landfill (+/- 40
acres) was completed. Although closure and post closure care costs will be paid only near or after the
date that the landfill stopped accepting waste, BVSWMA, Inc. reports a portion of these closure and post
closure care costs as an operating expense in each period based on landfill capacity used as of each
balance sheet date. Actual cost may be higher due to inflation, changes in technology, or changes in
regulations.

City of College Station, Texas
The plan provisions are adopted by the governing body of the City, within the options available in the state
statutes governing TMRS. Plan provisions for the City were as follows:
Contributions
Under the state law governing TMRS, the contribution rate for each city is determined annually by the
actuary, using the Projected Unit Credit actuarial cost method. This rate consists of the normal cost
contribution rate and the prior service cost contribution rate, which is calculated to be a level percent of
payroll from year to year. The normal cost contribution rate finances the portion of an active member’s
projected benefit allocated annually; the prior service contribution rate amortizes the unfunded actuarial
liability over the applicable period for that City. Both the normal cost and the prior service contribution
rates include recognition of the projected impact of annually repeated benefits, such as Updated Service
Credits and Annuity Increases.
The City contributed to the TMRS Plan at an actuarially determined rate. Both the employees and the City
made contributions monthly. Since the City needs to know its contribution rate in advance for budgetary
purposes, there is a one-year delay between the actuarial valuation that serves as the basis for the rate
and the calendar year when the rate goes into effect.

City of College Station, Texas
The required contribution rates for fiscal year 2013 were determined as part of the December 31, 2010 and
2011 actuarial valuations. Additional information as of the latest actuarial valuation, December 31, 2012,
also follows:
Funded Status and Funding Progress – In June 2011, SB 350 was enacted by the Texas Legislature
resulting in a restructure of the TMRS funds. This legislation provided for the actuarial valuation to be
completed, as if restructuring had occurred on December 31, 2010. In addition, the actuarial assumptions
were updated for the new fund structure, based on an actuarial experience study that was adopted by the
TMRS Board at their May 2011 meeting (the review compared actual to expected experience for the four-
year period of January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2009). For a complete description of the combined
impact of the legislation and new actuarial assumptions, including the effects on TMRS city rates and
funding ratios, please see the December 31, 2010 TMRS Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
(CAFR).
The funded status as of December 31, 2012, the most recent actuarial valuation date, is as follows:

E. Other Post Employment Benefits
In addition to the pension benefits described in Note V.D., as required by state laws and defined by City
policy, the City makes available postretirement medical, dental, vision, drug and life insurance benefits to all
employees who meet TMRS retirement qualifications, retire from the City and who enroll themselves and their
eligible dependent(s) on or before the effective date of their retirement through the City’s single-employer
defined benefit other post-employment benefit (OPEB) plan. The life insurance plan provides a $10,000 fully
insured death benefit coverage upon retirement which ceases upon attainment of age 65 for retirees. So long
as monthly premium payments are made, the healthcare plan provides lifetime insurance to eligible retirees,
their spouses and dependents through the City’s group health insurance plan, which covers both active and
retired members. Benefit provisions as well as retiree premium contributions are established by management.
The City determines the employer and participant contribution rates annually based on recommendations of
City staff and the City’s consultant. All medical, dental, vision and drug care benefits are provided through the
City’s self-insured health plan. The benefit levels are the same as those afforded to active employees. Life
insurance for eligible retirees is paid entirely by the City.
During fiscal year 2013, forty-three former employees were covered under this arrangement, with claims less
retiree contributions totaling ($3,833).
Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The City’s annual OPEB cost is based on the annual required contribution (ARC) of the City, an amount
actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45. Despite the apparent
implications of the term ARC, the City is not required to contribute the ARC to the plan each year, Instead,
the ARC provides a basis for evaluating whether the City’s contributions for OPEB are adequate to fund the
benefits during the working lifetime of current employees (i.e., the normal cost) and to amortize existing
unfunded obligations (i.e., the obligations for current retirees plus that portion of the current employees’
obligations that are attributed to past service) in a systematic manner over the amortization period prescribed
by GASB.
The annual OPEB cost is the annual accounting expense recorded on the City’s Statement of Revenues,
Expenses and Changes in Net Position and on the City’s Statement of Activities. The annual OPEB cost is
equal to (1) the ARC for the current fiscal year, plus (2) interest on the Net OPEB Obligation at the beginning
of the year, reduced by (3) an adjustment to the ARC which is equal to an amortization of the beginning of the
year Net OPEB Obligation. As described in Note V.C, the City terminated its Borrowed Employee Agreement
with BVSWMA, Inc. Therefore, the related OPEB obligation of $134,385 was removed.

Notes to the Financial Statements
For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
Generally, the Net OPEB Obligation is the cumulative difference since the effective date of GASB 45
between the annual OPEB cost and the employer’s contributions to the plan including the OPEB liability
(asset) at transition, if any. Because the City did not have an OPEB liability/(asset) at transition, the Net
OPEB Obligation as of October 1, 2008 is zero. Whenever the City contributes an amount less than the
annual OPEB cost, this shortfall will increase the City’s Net OPEB Obligation.
Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Actuarial valuations involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the
probability of events far into the future. Actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual revision as
actual results are compared to past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.
The required Schedule of Funding Progress immediately following the notes to the financial statements
presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or
decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits. GASB No. 45 calculations are
based on the types of benefits provided under the terms of the substantive plan at the time of each
valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the employer and plan participants to that point.
In addition, the projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly incorporate the
potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the
employer and plan participants in the future.
Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. In addition, consistent with that perspective,
actuarial methods and assumptions used in developing the amounts in this report include techniques that
are designed to reduce short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities.
The required contribution rates were determined as part of the October 1, 2012 actuarial valuation.

City of College Station, Texas
Funding Status and Funding Progress
The Schedule of Funding Progress presents information as of the current valuation date and the two
preceding valuation dates. As of the date of this financial statement, the City has had two valuations, that
for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2010, and one for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2012.
There are factors that affect the ability to compare amounts reported from one actuarial valuation date to
the next. The assumptions that have been changed since the previous valuation are:
‐ the Discount Rate has been updated to reflect changes in the allocation of assets of the employer and
the expected return on such assets;
‐ the Assumed Per Capita Health Benefit Costs and Assumed Expenses for retirees and dependents
have been updated to reflect changes in claims and expense expectations; and
‐ the Health Benefit Cost Trend and Expense Trend have been updated to reflect changes in short-term
expectations of the annual rate of increase of the Assumed Per Capita Health Benefit Costs.
Two separate valuations, one of which used the October 1, 2010 valuation date and one the October 1,
2012 valuation date, were used to develop results for the fiscal years ending September 30, 2012 and
September 30, 2013. The plan was changed effective January 1, 2012 to eliminate post-65 medical
coverage and was changed effective January 1, 2013 to eliminate one of the PPO benefit options. While
the plan typically undergoes a biennial valuation, pursuant to paragraph 12 of GASB 45, a new valuation
must be performed if there are significant changes to the plan since the previous valuation.
As previously stated, for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013, a new actuarial valuation
incorporating these changes to the plan provisions was performed using October 1, 2012 valuation date.
F. 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. The City is not the 457 Plan Administrator or trustee
and the assets of the plan are not reportable in the City's basic financial statements.
G. Commitments and Contingencies
Construction Commitments
The City has contractual commitments of $8,325,496 in the Capital Projects Funds, $772,917 in the Water
Fund, $2,761,839 in the Wastewater Fund and $4,462,056 in the Electric Fund. These commitments are
for construction of various projects and will be funded primarily from long-term debt.

For the Fiscal Year Ended September 30, 2013
City of College Station, Texas
Contingencies
The City participates in a number of federal and state assisted grant programs. These programs are
subject to program compliance audits by the grantors or their representatives. Any liability for
reimbursement which may arise as the result of these audits is not believed to be material.
Litigation
The City is a party to legal proceedings, many of which occur in the normal course of operations. It is not
possible at the present time to estimate the ultimate outcome or liability, if any, of the city with respect to
the various proceedings. Management believes any unfavorable outcomes would not be material.
H. Bonds Available for Sale
Authorized general obligation bonds available for future issue are as follows:
I. Revenue Bond Coverage
All the net revenues of the Electric, Water, and Wastewater 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.
J. Subsequent Events
In January 2014, the City Council adopted Ordinance 2014-3545 which amends Chapter 11 of City’s Code
of Ordinances by adopting section 12, related to the creation of Municipal Utility Districts (MUDs). Also
adopted was Resolution 01-09-14-01 which establishes the policies for the application process and costs
for such requests, the standards that development and infrastructure shall meet if consent is granted, the
issues related to annexation of property within a MUD, issuance of debt, and the dissolution of a MUD.
These policies apply to any future MUDs either within the City limits, or within the City’s Extraterritorial
Jurisdictions.

*Assets are stated as of December 31 of the preceding year, the date of the actuarial valuation.
** Information is from appropriate year supplements to TMRS annual reports.
In June 2011, SB 350 was enacted by the Texas Legislature resulting in a restructure of the TMRS funds. This
legislation provided for the actuarial valuation to be completed as if restructuring had occurred on December 31,
2010, In addition, the actuarial assumptions were updated for the new fund structure, based on an actuarial
experience study that was adopted by the TMRS Board at their May 2011 meeting (the review compared actual to
expected experience for the four year period of January 1, 2006 through December 31, 2009). For a complete
description of the combined impact of the legislation and new actuarial assumptions, including the effects on
TMRS city rates and funding ratios, please see the December 31, 2011 TMRS Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report (CAFR).

DIRECT AND OVERLAPPING PROPERTY TAX RATES
LAST TEN FISCAL YEARS
(rate per $100 of assessed value)
Source: Brazos County Appraisal District
Notes:
(1) Tax rates are established by each taxing jurisdiction on an annual basis for
revenues to be collected in the following fiscal year. The City must publish its
effective and rollback tax rates before adopting an actual tax rate. If the City
adopts a rate that exceeds the rollback rate, voters may petition for an election
to limit the rate to the rollback rate. If the City adopts a rate that exceeds its
effective rate, additional public hearings and notices are required. Rates for
debt service are set based on each year's requirements.
(2) The date that taxes are due for all jurisdictions is October 1. Taxes for all
jurisdictions become delinquent on February 1. The penalty is set by state law at
6% in February, and an additional 1% per month up to 12%. The interest is
accrued at 1% per month.
(3) The upper limit of the tax rate is set at $2.50/$100 of assessed value for each
jurisdiction by State Statute. This limit is for both operations and debt service
combined.

Sources: Debt outstanding data provided by each governmental unit. Assessed value data used to estimate applicable
percentages provided by the Brazos County Appraisal District.
Notes:
Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographical boundaries of the City.
This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the
residents and businesses of College Station. This process recognizes that, when considering the City's ability to
issue and repay long-term debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into
account. However, this does not imply that every taxpayer is a resident and therefore responsible for repaying the
debt of each overlapping government.
a For debt repaid with property taxes, the percentage of overlapping debt is estimated using taxable assessed property
values. Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of another governmental unit's
taxable assessed value that is within the City's boundaries and dividing it by each unit's total assessed value.
