NOTE 1 - REPORTING ENTITY AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The City of Fairlavn (the 'City') is a charter municipal corporat.ion. incorporated
under the laws of the State of Ohio. The City operates under a CI¡)uncil-Kayor foElli
of govemment. The Kayor and Council are elected.
A.
Renortinl!: Entity
The City provides various services including police and j~ire protection;
emergency medical. parks and recreation. planning. zoning. s1treet lIUlintenance
and repair, refuse collection and general administrative services. !he
operation of each of these activities is directly controllecl by the Council
through the budgetary process. rb.ese City operations form tht~ oversight Unit
and are included as part of the reporting entity.
In evaluating how to define the City for financial repc)rting purposes,
management has considered all potential component units. The decision tô
include a potential component unit in the reporting entity was made by applying
the criteria set forth in GAAP. The basic - but not the only - criterion for
including a potential component unit within the reportin¡: entity is the
Council's ability to e%ercise oversight responsibility. The most significant
manifestation of this abiHty is financial interdepElndency. Other
manifestlltions of the ability to e%ercise oversight responsibility include, but
are not limited to, the selection of. governing authority, the designation of.
management, the ability to significantly influence clperations, and
accountability for fiscal IIUltters. A second criterion uSEid in evaluating
potential component units is the scope of public service. ApJìtlicationQf this
criterion involves considering whether the activity benefits the City and/or.
its residents, or whether the activity is conducted withiDl the geographic
boundaries of the City and is generally available to its residents. A third
criterion used to evaluate potential component units for inclusion or e%clusicm:
from the reporting entity is the e%!stence of special financicg relationships,
regardless of whether the City is able to e%ercise oversight responsibilities.
The following component unit has been combined with the oversight unit to
create the reporting entity for financial statement purposes:
Community Imnrovement Corporation of Fairlavn - The Community Improvement
Corporation is a non-profit corporation which acts as an agency for the City
of Fairlavn in securing industrial. commercial, distribution. . and research
development. Elected officials of the City serve as voting trustees.
Based upon the application of the criteria listed above. the
potential component units have been e%cluded from the City's
statements:
following

ConleY/Fairlavn City School District - The members of the Board of Education
of the School District are elected by the voters within the School District.

Fiduciarv Fund Tvoes:
Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held by the City in a trusteE
capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, othe!
governmental units and/or other funds. There are two types of' fiduciary funds,
trust and agency. The City has no trust funds. The City's agency funds arE
purely custodial (assets equal liabilities) and thus do not involve measurement
of results of operations.. .
Account Grouns:
To make a clear distinction between fixed assets related to specific funds anc
those of general government, and between long-term liabilitIes related t(
specific funds and those of a general nature, the following account groups arE

NOTE 2 - SU!lHARY 01" SIGNIFICANT. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of these financiaJ
statements are summarized below. These policies conform to generally acceptec
accounting principles (GAAP) for local governmental units as prescribed in thE
statements issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board and othe!
recognized authoritative sources.
A.
Measurement Focus and' Basis of Accountin~
The accounting and reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by itE
measurement focus. All governmental fund types are accounted. for using a flo'l
of current financial resources measurement focus. With this m.easurement focus.
only current assets and current liabilities are generally included on thE
balance. sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e.,
revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures anc
other financing uses) in net current assets.
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures are recognized iJ:
the accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accountinl
relates to the timing of the measurements made.
All governmental fund types and agency funds are accounted for using thE
modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this basls, revenues arE
recognized in the accounting period when they become both, measurable an(
available. Heasurable means the amount of the transaction can be determinec
and available means collectible within the current year or soon enoug1
thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current yea.r. The availablE
period for the City is thirty-one days after year end.
- 16 -
""'LY UL ..,a:LI:J.awn, UIU.O
Notes to the General Purpose Financial Statements
December 31, 1992
in applying the susceptible to accrual concept under the modified accrual
basis, the following revenue sources are deemed both measurable and aVlnilable:
investment elU:D.Íngs, state-levied locally shared taxes (including I!:asoline
tax), fines and forfeitures and. income tax withheld by employers.
The City reports deferred revenues on its combined balance sheet. lleferred
revenues arise when a potential revenue does not meet both the measurable and
available criteria for recognition in the current period. In the sublsequent
period, when both revenue recognition criteria are met, theliabi1.ity for
deferred revenue is removed from the combined balance sheet. and revenue is
recognized. Current and delinquent property taxes measurable as of. Dlecember
31, 1992, whose availability is indeterminate and which are not intended to
finance current period obligatinns, have been recorded as a receivable and
deferred revenue. Levied special assessments are l8easurable, and have been
recorded as a receivable. Since all assessments are due outside of the
available period, the entire amount has been deferred.
The measurement focus of governmental fund accounting is on decreases in net
financial resources (expenditures) rather than expenses. Expenditures are
recognized in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if
measurable. Principal and interest on general long-term obligations are
recorded as fund liabilities when due or when amounts have been accumulated in
the debt service fund for payments to be made early in the following year. The
costs of accumulatedunpaid vacation and sick leave are reported as fund
liabilities in the period in which they will be liquidated with available
financial resources rather than in. the period eamed by employees . Allocations
of cost, such as depreciation and amortization, are not recognized in the
governmental funds.
Bud2etarv Process
'!he budgetary process is prescribed by provisions of the Ohio Revised C,ode and
entails the preparation of budgetary documents within an established
timetable. The major docQlDents prepared are the tax budget, the certifilcate of
estimated resources, and the appropriation ordinance, all of which are p:t'epared
on the budgetary basis of accounting. . The certificate of estimated re,sources
and the appropriations ordinance are subject to amendment throughout tJa.e year
with the legal restriction that appropriations cannot exceed es't:imated
resources, as certified. All funds, other than agency funds and the COJDllunity
Improvement Corporation special revenue fund. are legally required to be
budgeted and appropriated. Budgetary information for the Collll8l1l1i.ty Imprlovement
Corporation special revenue fund is not reported because it is not inc~wded in
the entity for which the -appropriated budget- is adopted. The legal ItlWel of
budgetary control is at the object level within each department. Any bwigetary
modifications at this level may only be made by resolution of the City CtJuncil.
Tax Bud2et. At the first Council meeting in July, the Kayor prese11ts the
annual operating budget for the following fiscal year to City Councll for
consideration and passage. The adopted budget is submitted to the County
Auditor, as Secretary of the County Budget CollllDiss!on, by July 20 of eacJ1 year,
for the period January 1 to December 31 of the following year.
Estimated Resources. The County Budget COllDliss!on determines if the budget
substantiates a need to levy all or part of previously authorized t8J[es and
reviews estimated revenue. The CollllDission certifies its actions to the C:ity by
October 1. As part of this certification, the City receives the official
- 17 -
Notes

certificate of estimated resources, which states the proj ected. revenue of each
fund. Prior to December 31, the City must revise its budget so that the total
contemplated expenditures from spy fund during the ensuing fisc:al year will not
exceed the amount available as stated in the certificat.e of estimated
resources. The revised budg~t then serves as the basis for the annual
appropriation, ordinance. On or about January 1, the certifica~te of estimated
resources is amended to include unencumbered fund balances ILt December 31 of
the preceding year. The certificate may be further amended dtLring the year if
the Finance Director determines. and the Budget CollllllÍssiotL agrees that an
estimate needs to be either increased or decreased. The amcnll1ts reported on
the budgetary statement reflect the amounts in the final amended official
certificate of estimated resources issued during 1992.
Apurouriations. A temporary, appropriation ordinance to con1~rol expenditures
may be passed on or about January 1 of each year for the pedod January 1 to
Barch 31. An annual appropriation ordinance IllUst be passed bJr April 1 of each
year for the period January 1 to December 31. The approp]dation ordinance
fixes spending authority at the fund, department and object level. The
appropriation ordinance may be amended during the year as new informatiOll
becomes available. provided that total fund appropriationls do not excee~
current estimated resources. as certified. The allocation ,it)f appropriation!
among departments and objects within a fund may be modified d1l1ring the year bJ
an ordinance of Council. During the year. several supplemen'tal appropriatiOt
measures were passed. None of these supplemental appropriations had anJ
significant affect on the original appropriations. The budg,et figures whic}
appear in the statements of budgetary comparisons represent the finaJ
appropriation amounts. including all amendments and modifications.
Encumbrances. As part of formal budgetary control, purchase orders, contract!
and other collllllitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded as tht
equivalent of expenditures on the non-GAAP budgetary basis in, order to reservi
that portion of the applicable appropriation and to determdne and maintaiJ
legal compliance. The Ohio Revised Code prohibits expenditures plu'
encumbrances from exceeding appropriations. On the GAAP basis, encumbrance
outstanding at year end are reported as reservations of ,f'und balances fo
subsequent-year expenditures for governmental funds.
Lausin!! of Auurouriations. At the close of each year, the unelncumbered balanc
of each appropriation reverts to the respective fund frtlm which it wa
appropriated and becomes subject to future appropriations ,. The encumbere
appropriation balance is carried forward to the succeedin¡, year and is no
reappropriated.

The City has segregated bank accounts for monies held separate from the City's
central bank account. These interest bearing depository accounts are p~!8ented
in the. combined balance sheet as 'cash and cash equivalents in seg:regated
accounts'. since they are not required to be deposited into the City trl!asury.
See Hote 6,Deposits and.Investaents.
For presentation on the combined balance sheet, investaents with an lnitial
maturity.... of three months or .less and cash and investments in thl! cash
management pool are considered to be cash equivalents. Investments w:lth an
initial maturity of more than three months are reported as investments.
Inventories of goverDlllental funds are stated at cost. For all funds, I:Ost. is
determined on a first-in, first-out basis. The costs of inventory itl!ms are
recorded as expenditures in the goverDlllental fund types. when purc:hased.
Reported materials and supplies inventory is equally offset by a fund halance
reserve in the goverDlllental fund which indicates that it does not con¡titute
available expendable resources even though it is a component of net c:urrent
assets.
Fixed Assets and Depreciation
General fixed assets are not capitalized in the funds used to acq\1Íre or
construct thea. Instead, capital acquisition and construction are reflec:ted as
expenditures in goverDlllental funds, and the related assets are reported in the
general fixed assets account group.
All purchased fixed assets are valued at cost when historical records are
available and at an estimated historical cost when no historical J~ecords
exist. Donated fixed assets are valued at their estimated fair market vlLlue on
the date received. .
The costs of normal

Public domain ('infrastructure') general fixed assets consisting of roads,
bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage .systells and
lighting systems are nõt capitalized, as these assets are immovable and.of

are not depreciated.

For governmental funds, the City records a liability for acct~ulated unused
vacation time when earned for all employees with more tlulJl one year of
service. The City records a liability for accumulated unused slck leave in the
period the employee becomes eligible to receive payment. The current portion
of unpaid compensated absences is the amount expected to be paid using
expendable available resources. These amounts are recorded in the account
.compensated absences payable" in the fund from which the eDl]~loyees who have
accumulated unpaid leave are paid. The remainder .is reported in the general
long-term obligations account group.
G.
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual
funds for goods provided or services rendered. These receivables and payables
are classified as "due from other funds" or "due to other funlils." Long-term
interfund loans are classified as "advances receivable/payable" on the balance
sheet.

Reserves represent those portions of fund equity not available for
appropriation for expenditure or legally segregated for a specific future use.
Designated fund balances represent tentative plans for future use of financial

Under Ohio Law, a debt retirement fund must be created and used for the :payment
of all debt principal and interest. Generally accepted accounting pr~~ciples
require the allocation of the obligations liability among the appropriatle funds
and the general long-term obligations account group, with princip,al and
interest payments on matured special assessment bonds payable being repo:tted in
the debt service fund. To comply with GAAP reporting requirements, the City's
debt retireaentfund has been split among the appropriate funds and ¡account
group. Debt service fund resources used to. pay both principal and ÎJl1terest

All City of Fairlawn full-time employees, except non-administrative :full-time
uniformed police officers and firemen, participate in the Public Jblployees
Retirement System (.System.), a cost-sharing multiple-employer public employee
retirement system created by the State. The payroll for employees clJVered by
the System for the year ended December 31, 1992 was $1,094,369; th.~ City's
total payroll was $1,962,250.
All City employees, except non-administrative full-time uniformecl police
officers and firemen, must participate in the System. Those studentll worJdng
less than 1,500 hours per calendar year for the school, college, or wliversity
they attend have an option to exempt themselves from membership. Benefits
fully vest upon reaching five years of service and are established by state
statute. Employees may retire at any age with thirty years of serviCE!, at age
sixty with a minimum of five years of credited service, and at age flfty-five
with a minimum of twenty-five years of service. Those individuals retiring
with fewer than thirty years of service or less than age sixty-fivE! receive
reduced retirement benefits. Hembers are entitled to a retirement benefit,
payable monthly for life, equal to 2.1 percent of their final avera¡~ salary
for each year of credited service up to thirty years. Hembers are ent:itled to
2.5 percent of their final average salary for each year of service in E!XCeSS of
thirty years. Final average salary is the employee's average salary over the
highest three years of earnings.
Contribution rates are statutorily authorized and actuarially determinE!d. The
rate set for employee contributions for 1992 was 8.5 percent. The employer
contribution rate vas 13.55 percent of covered payroll; 8.44 percent was the
portion used to fund pension obligations for 1992. The difference bet~ween the
total employer rate and the portion used to fund pension obligations: was the
amount used to fund the health care programs. The retirement cont~ribution
requirement for the year ended December 31, 1992 was $241,308, which c:onsisted
of $148,287 from the City and $93,021 from employees; these contI~butions
represented 13.55 percent and 8.5 percent of covered payroll respective,ly.
During 1992, Senate Bill 346 established a revised disability program. All
public employees who were members of the System as of July 29, 1.992, the
effective date of the legislation, were given the opportunity to elect coverage
under either the original disability program or the revised di.sability
program. Anyone hired after July 29, 1992 is automatically covered under the
revised disability program. The revised program was designed to be cost
neutral, and therefore does not affect the funding of the System. The
inflation assumption rate changed from 5.S percent to 5.25 percent. Th.ere were
no other changes in actuarial assumptions, benefit provisions, actuarial
funding methods or other factors.
