Attorney Garganese asked if all questions were answered to the best of the applicant's
knowledge. Mr. Jenkins affirmed. Mr. Jenkins stated that he is an engineer by training
and found the Board's background relative to his interest. His site plan experience is in
the space industry. Attorney Garganese inquired about his philosophy on vested rights.
Mr. Jenkins replied that if a reasonable amount of time has transpired then vested rights
would super cede the code. However, to the matter in question further thought is
required on his part. Mr. Morgan stated that he would be an asset to the Board. Mayor
Pro Tem Petsos expressed his appreciation for his interest and stated that Mr. Jenkins'
manner of logic and common sense are valuable. Mayor Randels explained that the

PRESENTATION:
Reclaimed Water Distribution System Improvements Study, Brown & Caldwell
Mayor Randels explained that this presentation would provide input on the continued
build-out for the reclaimed water system. Mr. Ted Hortenstine began his presentation by
outlining the goals of the overall system: improved pumping efficiency, modifications to
allow system build out, evaluate resource management options and to provide an opinion
of probable costs for recommendations. He stated the initial purpose of reclaimed water: to
remove effluent from the Indian River. Reclaimed water is now viewed as a critical service.
He focused on two main issues: reclaimed water as a resource and reclaimed water for
pumping and distribution. Mayor Pro Tem Petsos clarified that the City is committed to the
City of Cocoa Beach only for distribution through an agreement and not to the Port. Some
improvements considered for the water supply: additional operational storage such as
aquifer storage and recovery well, also, installing another valve to allow easier tank
cleaning.
Mr. Hortenstine reviewed data analysis regarding meeting system demands. A system
model was developed using H2ONet software to manipulate the system's data. Some
improvements considered during the Modeling: A Conservation Based Approach, Zone
Approach and System Build-Out to Include Remaining Streets. Mr. Hortenstine reviewed
the cost for System Build Out and Recommendations. A recommended approach to
System Build Out is a Phased Approach. Phase 1 and 2 would evaluate the effectiveness
of improvements and determine if Phase 3 were needed. Phase 3 would provide
additional storage. Phase 4 stated that system build out could be done over several years.
Other improvements are to consider conservation measures during drought conditions. Mr.
Hortenstine stated that reclaimed water has become a valuable commodity due to
changing perceptions in water conservation.
Mayor Randels stated the proposal provided no new insight to what the Public Works
Director had already reported. He also asked to know when the finished system would be
available and noted the expense to connect one household. Mr. Hortenstine explained that
providing an uninterruptible service required more effort and the system was not
established for such an operation. Mayor Pro Tem Petsos expressed that an informed
decision could be made using the data provided along with a report from the City Manager
on the reuse agreement with the City of Cocoa Beach. Mr. Boucher informed that Mr.
Hortenstine would contact the Florida Department of Environmental Protection on some
type of protocol with the onset of a dry season. Mayor Pro Tem Petsos pointed out that the
City is still only using an average .55 and sending .77 million gallons per day to the river
and stated that an additional tank might better conserve the resource.
Mr. Paul Hurley inquired if any mechanisms were built-in for growth due to the Port. Mr.
Hortenstine stated that the Port is self-sustaining on the reuse issue. Mr. John Pekar
pointed out that the stormwater study gave consideration to infuse that program into the
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida

reuse sytstem. The City of Cocoa is re-circulating stormwater through a plant however the
City of Oviedo is using a chemical treatment process.
CONSENT AGENDA:
1. City Council Regular Meeting Minutes of February 18, 2003.
2. Resolution No. 2003-08; Appointing an Alternate Member to the Business
and Cultural Development Board. (Bill Leach).
3. Proclamation for Irish-American Heritage Month.
Mayor Randels asked if City Council member, staff or interested party requested to
remove an item from the Consent Agenda for discussion.
There was no request to remove an item for discussion.
A motion was made by Mayor Pro Tem Petsos and seconded by Mr. Morgan to
Approve Consent Agenda Items No. 1, 2 and 3. The motion carried 5-0 with voting
as follows: Mr. Hoog, For; Mr. Morgan, For; Mayor Pro Tem Petsos, For, Mayor
Randels, For and Mr. Treverton, For.
CONSIDERATIONS:
4. Design Proposal from Stottler Stagg &Associates for the North Ridgewood
Avenue Stormwater Detention Basin in the Amount of 13,200.
Mayor Randels expressed that this project would proceed as a pilot program. Mr. Pekar
explained that on the road there are catch basins however he suggested a dry, recessed
catch basin. This would prevent saltwater intrusion of the dune and would reduce down
stream discharges. Mayor Randels stated for the audience that this project is proposed for
the east end of Ridgewood Avenue. Mr. Pekar replied to Mr. Treverton that using Public
Works staff might reduce cost however no exact cost analysis was considered at this time.
Mr. Treverton introduced the feasibility of a design build plan into discussion. Mr. Nicholas
suggested using the rest of the easement in the Harbor Heights area for stormwater
drainage as well. Mr. Hoog inquired about setting a lump sum price in this cost with a
limitation not to exceed a set amount. The City Engineer will propose a design build
project.
5. Renewal of the Landscaping and Mowing Service Agreement with Nick's
Landscaping.
Mr. Nick Stipanovich requested to increase the company's pricing due to additional
mowing to accommodate Manatee Sanctuary Park, maintenance on additional trees and
the growing season. Mr. Hoog asked about bagging and not blowing grass into the storm

City Council Regular Meeting

drains. Mr. Stipanovich responded that his staff has been instructed to blow the grass back
toward the property and not into the storm drains. This is the fourth annual renewal of the
contract.
A motion was made by Mr. Morgan and seconded by Mr. Hoog to Approve the
Renewal of the Landscaping and Mowing Service Agreement with Nick's
Landscaping in the Amount of$102,940.44. The motion carried 5-0 with voting as
follows: Mr. Hoog, For; Mr. Morgan, For; Mayor Pro Tem Petsos, For, Mayor
Randels, For and Mr. Treverton, For.
6. Proposal from J & S Curb/ Concrete for SR A1A Sidewalk and Drainage
Improvements.
Mr. Gardulski stated that J & S Curb was quoted considerably lower in light of the blanket
purchase option. Mayor Pro Tem Petsos expressed concern with acquiring a contractor
and then dispensing the bid to go out for quote. He requested to see the City use the bid
process in light of an upcoming project_ Mayor Pro Tem Petsos also inquired about the
$19,200 cost for drainage improvements. Mr. Gardulski explained that sidewalk
construction was restricting the flow of drainage and pipe is need under the sidewalks. The
Florida Department of Transportation requires drainage improvements for the permitting
process.
A motion was made by Mr. Morgan and seconded by Mr. Treverton to Approve the
Proposal to J & S Curb/Concrete for SR A1A Sidewalk and Drainage Improvements
in the Amount of$32,098. The motion carried 5-0 with voting as follows: Mr. Hoog,
For; Mr. Morgan, For; Mayor Pro Tem Petsos, For, Mayor Randels, For and Mr.
Treverton, For.
7. Development Agreement with the Seaport Oceanfront Condominium
Association, Inc., for a Perpetual Public Beach Access Easement.
Mayor Randels inquired why the easement would be done contingent until the dedication
of public access. He also pointed out that the landscaping requires a large amount of work
on the City's part. Ms. Bea McNeely, Planning and Zoning Board Chair, stated that the
City could not take a dedicated road and make a connection to a destination that does not
belong to the City. Ms. Shannon Roberts expressed concern on behalf of Solana residents
with the congestion due to vehicular as well as pedestrian traffic. She asked if public
access is needed between Solana and Shorewood? Mr. Treverton related the resistance
from the developers to provide any public beach access in that area and related where
beach access was lacking. Attorney Garganese explained that the City would accept the
site plan review and take possession of the easement and Item 7.0 would authorize the
City to provide a crossover. Mr. Tom Garboski states that Shorewood owns the right-of-
way however Mayor Randels clarified Towne Realty owns the property. Mr. Bill Craig
expressed that he had no problem with the easement however his concern is with security
in that there were no requirements in the agreement for a fence. Attorney Garganese
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
City Council Regular Meeting
March 4, 2003
Page 5
stated that an amendment could be made to the development agreement. Mr. Pat
Salamone agreed that the developer would install the requested fence. Discussion
followed on how the residents in the area would acquire access to the beach.
Attorney Garganese stated that the developer can only give what is his however there is
an additional part to consider regarding the Towne Realty portion to acquire beach access.
Ms. Roberts stated that the residents in the area should be notified of continued discussion
since the effects are significant to that community. Mr. Salamone stated that the Planning
and Zoning Board has tied all three conditions to the agreement and no further
construction can proceed without the conditions. Mr. Craig requested that the City Attorney
draft the agreement with the proposed chain link fence consistent in height with the
existing fence. Mayor Pro Tem Petsos requested the minutes from the previous meeting
when .Jim Boris made a commitment for beach access. Mayor Randels encouraged Ms.
Roberts to attend the Planning and Zoning Board meetings for any further discussion.
The Development Agreement amendments are: 1) City will take the easement upon
effective date of the development agreement, and 2) the developer will construct a
6-foot chain link security fence equal to the north-side height within 60-days.
A motion was made by Mr. Treverton and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Petsos to
Approve the Development Agreement with the Seaport Oceanfront Condominium
Association, Inc. for a Perpetual Public Beach Access Easement as Amended. The
motion carried 5-0 with voting as follows: Mr. Hoog, For; Mr. Morgan, For; Mayor
Pro Tem Petsos, For, Mayor Randels, For and Mr. Treverton, For.

Council removed this item from the table for discussion. Mr. Keith Duncan, of Hertz
Agencies, asked if the existing agencies would be grand-fathered in. Attorney Garganese
clarified that: 1)this ordinance does not affect any conditions already applied through
previous special exceptions, and 2) the intent of the ordinance would apply to the new
establishments. Attorney Garganese recommended language that clearly states, "these
conditions apply to any special exceptions granted after the effective date of this

ordinance." Mr. Hoog inquired about Section 556, Paragraph 8 regarding the 30-day time
limit. Attorney Garganese stated the need to eliminate Paragraph 8 since the time limit is
addressed under the 72-hour ordinance. Mayor Randels noted that the 72-hour time limit
is in Chapter 34-181. Mr. Boucher stated that Paragraph 8 would be removed and the
ordinance re-numbered.
A motion was made by Mr. Hoog and seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Petsos to Adopt

The Planning and Zoning Board forwarded the item back to the City Council with the
position that imposing fees was not the Board's responsibility. Garganese replied to Mayor
Pro Tem Petsos that for a minimal cost the City would pay the recording fee for the notice
referred to in Paragraph 3. Mr. Tom Garboski asked if the City would maintain the
sidewalk and make the future owner aware of the sidewalk's condition when payment is
due. Mr. Gardulski stated that if the sidewalk is damaged during construction the
contractor is responsible for repairs. Mayor Randels said that the City repairs sidewalks
within the right of way. Mr. Todd Money, Acting Building Official, asked if there were a
mechanism to indicate when these fees are required. Mr. Boucher responded that a

would develop a pian for fees. Attorney Garganese stated that there is a recorded

o City Attorney provided a synopsis: The Planning and Zoning Board had
considered this issue—Competent substantial evidence was provided that
the site plan was vested. A previous Council approved a final plat and the
site plan approved was in compliance with the plat. Development is a two-
phase project. The Planning and Zoning Board has denied the vested right
claim. Ms. Cannon's attorney is preparing a Court appeal to the Planning

from consideration. Attorney Garganese advised waiting until the appeal is
filed to discuss potential litigation. Attorney Garganese stated that the
Council could request that the Planning and Zoning Board reconsider their

THE REPORTING ENTITY
The City of Cape Canaveral is a small beachside community located in Brevard County, nestled between the
Atlantic Ocean and the Banana River on the East Coast of Central Florida. A residential community spanning 1.9
square miles, the community populous remains relatively constant at 9,161 for year round residents. Our seasonal
population increases this number significantly. Since incorporation in 1963, Cape Canaveral is administered via an
electoral form of government. The chief legislative body is comprised of the mayor, mayor pro tem and three
council members. The City maintains a centralized Council/Manager form of government,representing a downward
chain of command and vertical conununication flow.
1
The City, in its entirety,provides a broad realm of services for its citizens including: Zoning and code enforcement;
growth management, community development and architectural review; road maintenance; landscaping and beach
maintenance; sewer and reuse water service to City residents, businesses; a public library facility; recreation and
leisure facilities including passive and xeriscape parks and a city ballfield; and general administrative support. A ^
wide range of public services are provided on a contract basis such as law enforcement, fire protection, refuse and
yard waste collection,community recycling programs,legal and engineering services.
The mission statement of the City of Cape Canaveral is"Welcome to the City of Cape Canaveral,promoting a safe,
clean, residential beachside community with tree-lined streets".
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
INTERNAL AND BUDGETARY CONTROL
In developing and evaluating the City's accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal
accounting controls. The City has internal controls in place that are designed to provide reasonable, but not
absolute, assurances regarding the following: (1) assets of the City are protected against loss from unauthorized use
or disposition; and (2) all financial transactions are executed in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits
likely to be derived,and the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
The annual zero based budgeting process is a team effort whereby all departments submit their anticipated operating
expenses for future year(s). Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental level via monthly financial
statements which compare actual expenditures with budgeted appropriations. The governing body is kept abreast of
the City's current financial position through monthly financial statements and quarterly presentations by the City
Treasurer.
GENERAL GOVERNMENTAL FUNCTIONS
The General Fund encompasses the majority of overall operations for the City. Revenues(exclusive of transfers)for
general government functions recorded in the General Fund in 2002 were$4,870,467, an increase of approximately
11% from the prior year's revenues of $4,388,670. The majority of this increase is due to the extensive
development being experienced within the City. This development has affected not only the revenue derived from ^
permits issued,but also increased impact fees and the tax base,
The taxing authority for the City of Cape Canaveral is unique within the State of Florida. While most municipalities ^
maintain a General Government Ad valorem tax to be used as needed, Cape Canaveral's Charter imposes _
restrictions as to specific activity and amount levied. The General Fund maintains two Ad valorem taxes, intended
to offset contract service expenses which are contained and appropriated through the General Fund. These Ad —
valorem taxes were voter approved in 1990. The Fire and Police Ad Valorem rates are currently assessed at.5000
and 1.000 mills respectively.

through user fees. This fund can be compared to a private business enterprise as net income (or loss) is determined
on an accrual basis. Sewer operating revenue increased$96,909 over the prior year. This increase is primarily due
to the 3%rate increase and additional customers from new development. Comparative data for 2002 and 2001 are

Operating Revenues $ 2,030,318 $ 1,933,409 $ 96,909

prepare for the implementation of GASB 34. All capital expenditures are now recorded in their respective
departmental budgets.

CASH MANAGEMENT
The City maintains a cash balance to adequately satisfy short-term operational liabilities. Funds deemed in excess
of current debt requirements are transferred to one of a number of investment instruments maintained to provide a
maximization of interest income. As of September 30, 2002, these included the Florida State Board of
Administration (SBA) Investment Pool. Funds, Money Market funds meld at Admiralty Banks and Intermediate
High Quality Bonds held with the Florida League of Cities Investment Division.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Risk management is more than just insurance; insurance is part of a safety net in the City's risk management
program. Some elements of the City risk management program are manifested through:
■ General Liability,property damage and workers' compensation coverage and claims management from
the Florida League of Cities.
■ Volunteer protection,a valuable human resource
• Safety, employee assistance and drug free workplace program for all employees
• Human resource training—i-e. sexual harassment and cultural diversity
■ Screening staff and volunteers for background and reference checking.
MAJOR INITIATIVES
The City Council and City Staff continued to implement the goals and objectives that are part of our Community
Visioning process.
t New construction continued to increase at an all time high with total valuation of$103 million. The Building
Department worked closely with the Fire Department,to insure compliance with Iocal codes.
In an effort to be more Service Friendly, City Hall experienced a major renovation, opening up the lobby to create a
positive experience for our citizens. Both the City Clerk's office and the Treasurer's office now open onto the lobby
with service desks. The Building Dept. also experienced reorganization in their office space,utilizing the available
space more efficiently.
The Parks and Recreation Department continues to increase its service to the community with special events
including a Halloween Street Party, two racquetball tournaments, a Senior Health fair, Holiday crafts classes,
summer youth activities, Patriots Day Parade, an Easter Egg Hunt and many more activities, designed to teach,
entertain and provide a recreational diversion for our citizens. Grant funds made available by the State of Florida
are being used to renovate some of the facilities at City Park.
The addition of a picnic/restroom pavilion, an educational kiosk and a walking/jogging trail, utilizing grant funds,
awarded by the State has been shifted to the coming year.
Construction of new sidewalks continued, as part of our Walkable Community program. Trees were planted
w Citywide and planning for the landscaping of SR A l A remains an ongoing effort,with completion expected in 2003.
Our Community Policing program was involved with many community events and crime prevention programs
during the year.
The City received grants from the St. John's River Water Management District for a baffle box on International
Drive and to implement a Storm Water Utility. Projects are slated to be completed in 2003.

ECONOMIC OVERVIEW AND OUTLOOK
The City closed fiscal year 2001102 in a positive financial position. In the General Fund, revenues and other
financing sources exceeded expenditures and other financing uses by $500,322. This excess of funds was due
primarily to the implementation of the Communications Services Tax and the unprecedented construction activity.
The Sewer Enterprise Fund closed with a net income of$154,822. This is due to increased building activity and the
related impact fees.
Growth was primarily residential for 2001102, with predictions for more than moderate growth continuing in both
the residential and commercial sectors for fiscal year 2002/03.
Through vision, dedication and teamwork, our elected officials, management and the citizenry of Cape Canaveral
can work together to achieve increased economic activity,productivity and an aesthetically enhanced and improved
community to be enjoyed by all.
INDEPENDENT AUDIT
Pursuant to Section l 1.45, Florida Statutes, an audit of the financial statements has been completed by the City's
independent certified public accountants, Bray, Beck & Koetter, CPA's, P.A. Their opinion is included in the
Financial Section of this report.

Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida for its comprehensive
annual financial report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001. The Certificate of Achievement is a

The Honorable Mayor and City Council
_ City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
We have audited the accompanying general purpose financial statements of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, as
_ of and for the year ended September 30, 2002, as listed in the table of contents. These general purpose financial
statements are the responsibility of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these general purpose financial statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards and the standards generally accepted in the United
States of America applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the general purpose financial statements are free of material misstatement. An
_ audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the general purpose
financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made
by management, as well as evaluating the overall general purpose financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the general purpose financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
_ financial position of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, as of September 30, 2002, and the results of its operations
and the cash flow's of its proprietary fund types for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 29, 2003 on our
co sideration, of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida's internal control over financial reporting and our tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants. That report is an integral part of an
audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this
_ report in considering the results of our audit.
Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the general purpose financial statements taken as
a whole. The combining and individual fund and account group financial statements and supporting schedules listed
in the table of contents is presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial
" statements of the City. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
_ general purpose financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the
general purpose financial statements taken as a whole.
_ The accompanying statistical information listed with table references under the caption "Statistical Section" in the
table of contents was not audited by us and, accordingly,we do not express an opinion on it.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The City of Cape Canaveral, Florida(City), was created pursuant to Chapter 73-129, Laws of Florida, in 1962.
The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government and provides the following services: public
safety,highways and streets,sanitation, culture and recreation and general and administrative services.
The financial statements of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, have been prepared in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to government units. The Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental
accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the City's accounting policies are
described below.
A. Reporting Entity_
As required by generally accepted accounting principles, these financial statements present the government and
its component units, entities for which the government is considered to be financially accountable. Blended
components units, although legally separate entities, are, in substance, part of the government's operations and
so data from these units are combined with data of the primary government. Each blended component unit has
a September 30, 2002 year end.
Blended Component Units: The Beautification Board is responsible for promoting and providing for
beautification programs and projects in the City. The members of the advisory board are appointed by the City
Council. The Project is funded by City and voter approved ad valorem taxes and the legal liability for any
payables remain with the City Council, The Board is reported as a special revenue fund.
The Library Fund (Fund) is responsible for exterior maintenance of the library. The members of the Fund's
advisory board are appointed by the City Council. Funds are derived by voter approved ad valorem taxes and
the legal liability for all payables remain with the City Council. The Fund is reported as a special revenue fund.
The Cape Canaveral Public Library is funded through the Brevard County Free Public Library District, a
separate taxing authority. It is governed by a separate board (appointed by the Brevard County Board of
Commissioners) having authority to employ its own management, approve financial transactions and having
accountability for fiscal matters. The Library Board's Budget is approved by Brevard County and its personnel
t are governed by the policies and procedures of Brevard County, The Cape Canaveral Public Library is
therefore not included under the reporting entity definition in the City's financial statements.
t Complete financial statements for each of the individual component units may be obtained at the City of Cape
Canaveral City Hall at the following address: City of Cape Canaveral, 105 Polk Avenue, Cape Canaveral, FL
32920.
B. Fund Accounting
The City uses funds and account groups to report its financial position and the results of its operations. Fund
accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating
transactions related to certain government functions or activities.

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,continued
B. Fund Accounting,continued
A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. An account group, on the other
hand, is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountability for certain assets and liabilities that are
not recorded in the funds because they do not directly affect net expendable available financial resources.
Funds are classified in three categories; governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. Each category, in turn, is
divided into separate"fund types".
Governmental Funds
Governmental Funds are used to account for all or most of a government's general activities, including the
collection and disbursement of earmarked monies (special revenue funds), the acquisition or construction of
general fixed assets (capital projects fund), and the servicing of general long-term debt (debt service funds).
The City's Governmental Funds are described as follows: w
General Fund
The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City and is used to account for all financial resources
except for those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds
Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than
expendable trusts or major capital projects)that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
Special Revenue Funds of the City are:
Fire Protection Fund - This fund accounts for impact fees collected under the authority of Chapter
381, Fire Prevention and Protection Recognition of the Code of Ordinances to finance the purchase of
fire protection equipment.
Beautification Fund - This fund accounts for voter-approved ad valorem taxes used to finance ..
beautification programs and projects in the City.
Police Education Fund - This fund accounts for certain revenues of the City for the specific purpose ..
of police training, and for the expenditures related to providing that training in accordance with
Florida Statutes. --
Library Fund - This fund accounts for voter-approved ad valorem taxes used for certain operations
and maintenance costs of the library. -�

Capital Projects
The Capital Projects fund-type is used to account for major capital acquisitions and projects, separate from
normal operations. The Capital Projects fund-type of the City is:
Capital Expansion - This fund accounts for impact fees collected to provide for capital acquisitions
and capital projects for general City development.
Proprietary Funds
Proprietary funds are used to account for activities similar to those found in the private sector, where the
determination of net income is necessary or useful to sound financial administration. Goods or services from
such activities can be provided either to outside parties (enterprise funds) or to other departments or agencies
r primarily within the government (internal service funds). The government applies all applicable FASB
pronouncements in accounting and reporting for its proprietary operations.
Enterprise Fund
The Enterprise Fund is used to account for operations(a)that are financed and operated in a manner similar
to private business enterprises, where the intent of the governing body is that the costs (expenses,including
depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or
recovered primarily through user charges, or (b) where the governing body has decided that periodic
determination of revenues earned, expenses, incurred and/or net income is appropriate for capital
maintenance,public policy,management control,accountability, or other purposes. The Enterprise Fund of
the City is:
Sewer Fund - This fund accounts for the collection of utility revenues and the operation and
maintenance of the City-owned sewer and reuse systems.
Fiducialy Funds
Fiduciary Funds are used to account for assets held on behalf of outside parties, including other governments, or
on behalf of other funds within the government. When these assets are held under the terms of a formal trust
agreement, either a pension trust fund, a nonexpendable trust fund or an expendable trust fund is used. The
terms "nonexpendable" and "expendable" refer to whether or not the government is under an obligation to
maintain the trust principal.

Expendable Trust Fund
These funds are used to account for assets held by the City in a trustee capacity for individuals, private
organizations,other governments, and/or other funds. The Expendable Trust Fund of the City is:
Special Law Enforcement Trust Fund - This fund is used to account for the receipt and disbursement
of confiscated contraband property proceeds from certain criminal cases pursuant to Florida Statutes.
Pension Trust Fund - This fiend is used to account for the defined contribution pension plan for the
City's employees. Pension Trust Funds are accounted for in essentially the same manner as
Proprietary Funds,
Account Groups i
An account group is a financial reporting device designed to provide accountability for certain assets and
liabilities that are not recorded in the assets or liabilities of any funds because they do not directly affect net

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,continued
C. Basis of Accountin
The accounting and financial reporting treatment applied to a fund is determined by its measurement focus. The
governmental funds and expendable trust fund are accounted for using a current financial resources
measurement focus. With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities are included on the
balance sheet. Operating statements of these funds present increases(i.e.,revenues and other financing sources)
and decreases(i.e.,expenditures and other financing uses)in net current assets.
All governmental fund types and expendable trust fund are maintained on the modified accrual basis of account-
ing. Under this method, revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available to finance
operations of the current period. Primary revenue sources that are determined to be susceptible to accrual
include taxes and special assessments, intergovernmental shared revenues and operating grants, charges for
services, and interest earnings on investments. Those that are determined not to be susceptible to accrual
include licenses, permits, fines and forfeitures. Expenditures are recognized when the related fund liability is
incurred, except for the long-term portion of accumulated unused vacation and sick pay which is not accrued,
and principal and interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due.
The proprietary fund and the pension trust fund are accounted for on the flow of economic resources
measurement focus and use the accrual basis of accounting. Under this method, revenues are recorded when
earned and expenses are recorded at the time liabilities are incurred. In accordance with Government
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No_ 20, "Accounting and Financial Reporting for Proprietary
Funds and Other Governmental Entities That Use Proprietary Fund Accounting," the City has selected one of
the two options available for proprietary fund reporting. The City will apply all applicable GASB
pronouncements and all Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statements and Interpretations,
Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinions and Accounting Research Bulletins (ARB) issued on or before
November 30, 1989, unless they conflict with or contradict GASB pronouncements. Utility service receivables
are recorded currently on a monthly basis. The City does not utilize cyclical billing, therefore all customers are
billed on the same date once each month for services consumed.
t The government reports deferred revenue on its combined balance sheet. Deferred revenues arise when a
potential revenue does not meet both the "measurable" and "available" criteria for recognition in the current
period. Deferred revenues also arise when resources are received by the government before it has a legal claim
to them, as when grant monies are received prior to the occurrence of qualifying expenditures. In subsequent
periods, when both revenue recognition criteria are met, or when the government has a legal claim to the
resources, the liability for deferred revenue is removed from the combined balance sheet and revenue is
recognized.
D. Budutary Data
An annual budget is prepared for all funds of the City except for the Pension Trust Funds which are effectively
controlled through governing agreements and related City ordinances. The annual operating budgets are
prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles and adopted by the City Council
pursuant to City Charter_

CITY OF CAPE CANAVERAL,FLORIDA ^
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2002
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, continued
D. Budgetary Data, continued ^
The budgets, as adopted,are reviewed quarterly by the City Council. Budgetary integration is established in the ^
accounting records for management control purposes at the object of expenditure level; however, the City
Charter establishes the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed the total City-wide appropriations.
The City manager has the authority to make budget transfers between line items, expenditure classifications and
departments without formal approval by City Council. However, any revisions that increase the total ^
appropriations of the City must be approved by the City Council. The annual budgets shown in the financial
statements include all amendments as approved during the year by the City Council (see Note 6). Annual
budget appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year.
E. Budgetary Accounts
The City Council budgets all governmental funds and expendable trust funds on the modified accrual basis of
accounting which is consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. ^
F. Encumbrances
Encumbrances represent commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods and services. Encumbrance
accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts, and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are
recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is employed as an extension of formal _
budgetary integration in the General, Special Revenue and Capital Projects Funds. Encumbrances outstanding
at year end are reported as reservations of fund balances since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities.
These comrriitments will be honored during the subsequent year. The subsequent year's appropriations provide
authority to complete these transactions_ Encumbrances are not recognized as expenditures until the period in
which the goods or services are received and a liability is incurred.
There were no outstanding encumbrances at September 30, 2002.
G. Cash Cash Equivalents, and Investments
Cash includes amounts in demand deposits as well as short-term investments with a maturity date within three
(3) months of the date acquired by the City. For purposes of the statement of cash flows the City considers all
highly liquid investments with a maturity date of three (3) months or less when purchased to be cash ^
equivalents. The City has a pooled investment account which allows the City to invest temporarily idle monies ,
at more favorable interest rates by consolidation of its resources. All funds, except fiduciary funds, participate
in the SBA pooled investment account. The investments are stated at cost, which together with accrued interest
receivable, approximate market value. Investment earnings of the pool are allocated to the participating funds
at the end of each month based on the ratio of each fund's investment to the total pooled investment.
24
^ CITY OF CAPE CANAVERAL,FLORIDA
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2002
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,continued
H. Investments
Investments are stated at cost and interest is accrued as earned in all funds except for the Pension Trust Fund,
where investments are stated at fair value. The average cost method is used for computing realized gains and
losses on marketable securities in the pension fund.
I. Accounts receivable
An allowance for doubtful accounts has been established for the General Fund and the Enterprise Fund.
J. Fixed Assets
General fixed assets are not capitalized in the funds used to acquire or construct them. Instead, capital
acquisition and construction are reflected as expenditures in governmental funds, and the related assets are
reported in the general fixed assets account group. All purchased fixed assets are valued at cost where historical
records are available and at an estimated historical cost where no historical records exist. Donated fixed assets
are valued at their estimated fair market value on the date donated. Assets in the general fixed assets account
group are not depreciated.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the assets or materially extend asset
lives are not capitalized.
^ Public domain ("infrastructure") general fixed assets consisting of roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets,
sidewalks, drainage systems and lighting systems are capitalized along with other general fixed assets.
Contributions received in aid of construction are credited to contributions accounts and do not reduce the cost of
the assets acquired with such contributions.
Property and equipment used in proprietary fund type operations are accounted for in the City's Enterprise Fund
(Sewer Fund). Capital additions and the cost of improvements and replacements which extend the useful lives
of the assets are capitalized. Other recurring costs for repairs and maintenance are charged to operations when
^ incurred.
Depreciation has been provided in the Enterprise Funds using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the various assets,which range as follows:
Buildings 20-40 years
Improvements other than buildings 10-40 years
Machinery and equipment 3-40 years
Interest is capitalized on proprietary fund assets constructed with debt. The amount of interest to be capitalized
is calculated by offsetting interest expense incurred from the date of borrowing until completion of the project,
with interest earned on investment proceeds over the same period.

K. Restricted Assets
Certain assets of the City's Enterprise Funds are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their
use is limited for specified purposes other than normal operations. These assets include proceeds from issuance
of revenue bonds, capital grants from other governments, and that portion of operating revenues set aside
pursuant to ordinances and loan agreements. Special restricted asset accounts have been established to account
for the sources and uses of these limited use assets, as follows:
- Bond Debt Service
- Renewal and Replacement
- Capital Improvement and Construction
State Revolving Loan Fund Escrow
State Revolving Loan Fund Replacement
Retained earnings of the Enterprise Funds are reserved for that portion of restricted assets funded from
operating revenues.
L. Inventory
Inventories are stated at cost(first-in, first-out)and are accounted for under the consumption method.
M. Prepaid ItemslEx enses
Payments made to vendors for services that will benefit periods beyond the current fiscal year are recorded as
prepaid items/expenses.
N. Lona-Term Obligations ^
The City reports long-term debt of governmental funds at face value in the general long-term debt account
group. Certain other governmental fund obligations not expected to be financed with current available financial
resources are also reported in the general long-term debt account group. Long-term debt and other obligations
financed by proprietary funds are reported as liabilities in the appropriate funds.
For governmental fund types, bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are recognized during
the current period. Bond proceeds are reported as an other financing source net of the applicable premium or
discount. Issuance costs, even if withheld from the actual net proceeds received, are reported as debt service
expenditures. For proprietary fund types, premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and
amortized over the life of the debt using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the _
applicable bond premium or discount. Issuance costs are reported as deferred charges.

O. Fund E uit
Reservations of fund balance represent amounts that are not appropriable or are legally segregated for a specific
purpose. Reservations of retained earnings are limited to outside third-party restrictions. Designations of fund
balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change. The proprietary fund's contributed
capital represents equity acquired through capital grants and capital contributions from developers, customers or
other funds.
P. Revenues,Contributions, xpenditures and Expenses
The City's accounting treatment and recognition policies for certain revenues, expenditures, and expenses
having unique accounting requirements are discussed below.
Property Taxes
Property taxes are billed in November and attach as a Iien on property as of January I of each year. Taxes
become delinquent on April 1 and tax certificates on all property on which taxes are delinquent are sold on
or about June 1 of each year. In accordance with NCGA Interpretation 3, property tax revenues are
^ recognized when they became both measurable and available_ Because tax certificates on all property are
sold in June,there are no material amounts of property taxes receivable as of each fiscal year end.
Administrative Service Charyes
Administrative services are provided to certain Enterprise Fund activities by various departments within the
` General Fund. These charges are recorded as revenues in the General Fund and as operating expenses in
the appropriate Enterprise Fund.
^ Capital Grants and Contributions
Program grants and capital grants for general fixed assets are recorded in the appropriate Governmental
^ Fund as receivables and revenues at the time reimbursable project costs are incurred. Grant revenues, if
any, received in advance of meeting all major grant restrictions are deferred. Capital grants in the
Proprietary Funds awarded for the construction of fixed assets are recorded as receivables and contributed
equity at the time reimbursable project costs are incurred.
Compensated Absences
Vacation and sick leave benefits are recorded in expenditures and in fund liabilities of the Governmental
Funds at amounts accruing during the year that normally would be liquidated with expendable available
_ financial resources in such Funds. Amounts earned at year end in excess of the amount accrued are
recorded in the General Long-Term Debt Account Group. Such benefits are accrued in the Proprietary
Funds when earned by employees.

in accordance with generaIIy accepted accounting principles.
4. Detail Notes-All Funds and Account Groups
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The City maintains centralized checking accounts for all funds(except Pension Trust Funds). Cash equivalents,
including those classified as restricted assets, consist of pooled investments with the State Board of
Administration, which at September 30, 2002, were earning interest at approximately 1.93%. The market value
of these investments approximates cost. The State Board of Administration Funds are fully secured by
Government Securities as required by Florida Statutes Chapter 215.47.
Deposits
At September 30, 2002, the carrying amount of cash deposits was $792,679 and the bank balance was
$1,187,260. All deposits with financial institutions were 100% insured by Federal depository insurance or by
collateral pursuant to the Public Depository Security Act of the State of Florida.
Investments
The investment of municipal funds is authorized by Section 166.261, Florida Statutes which allows the City to
invest in the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund administered by the State Board of Administration,
direct and indirect obligations of the United States Government, obligations of Federal Government agencies,
time deposits or savings accounts of financial institutions under Federal and State regulation, and mutual funds
that invest solely in obligations of the United States government or its agencies.
The Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund is governed by Ch. 19-7 of the Florida Administrative Code,
which identifies the Rules of the State Board of Administration. These rules provide guidance and establish the
general operating procedures for the administration of the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund.
Additionally, the Office of the Auditor General performs the operational audit of the activities and investments
of the State Board of Administration.
The Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund is not a registrant with the Securities and Exchange
Commission(SEC);however the Board has adopted operating procedures consistent with the requirements for a
r 2a-7 fund.
In accordance with the regulations of 2a-7-like pools, the method used to determine the participant's shares sold
and redeemed is the amortized cost method. The amortized cost method is the same method used to report
investments. Amortized cost includes accrued income and is a method of calculating an investment's value by
adjusting its acquisition cost for the amortization of discount or premium over the period from purchase to
maturity.

All property taxes remaining unpaid at May 30 are subject to a tax certificate sale by the Tax Collector,
therefore, taxes which would be susceptible to accrual are collected prior to the end of the City's fiscal year.
Property tax revenues are recognized in the fiscal year for which they are budgeted and also become due and

Accounts Receivable Net
Accounts receivable are recorded net of allowance for doubtful accounts of$2,464 and 54,348 in the General
Fund and Enterprise Fund,respectively. Receivables in all other funds are considered to be fully collectible.
Interfund Transactions
There are two types of interfund transactions and transfers that are reported as interfund items between the
funds. Quasi-extemal interfund transactions treat revenues, expenditures or expenses as if the transactions were
occurring outside the government. Interfund transactions which constitute reimbursements of a fund for
expenditures or expenses initially made from that fund and which are properly applicable to another fund are
recorded as expenditures or expenses in the reimbursing fund. Nonrecurring or nonroutine transfers of equity
between funds are treated as residual equity transfers and are reported as additions to or deductions from fund
balance or, in the case of a proprietary fund,to contributed capital and retained earnings. All other transfers are
treated as operating transfers and are included in the results of operations for both Governmental and
Proprietary funds statements.
Interfund operating transfers at September 30,2002 are summarized as follows:

8. Defined Contribution Pension Plan
The City of Cape Canaveral Employees' Pension Plan provides pension benefits for all full-time employees of
the City. The plan is a defined contribution plan administered by the Florida League of Cities and features
participant directed investments. In a defined contribution plan, benefits depend solely on amounts contributed
to the plan plus investment earnings. Employees are eligible to participate after one year of employment with
1,000 hours of service each year. The City contributes an amount equal to 7% of the employee's base salary
l each month. The City's contributions for each employee (and earnings allocated to the employee's account)are
fully vested after five years' continuous service. The forfeited portion, and earnings thereon, for employees
who leave employment are used to reduce the City's current-period contribution requirement. The plan is
funded solely by employer contributions pursuant to City Resolution 01-27.
The City's total payroll in fiscal year 2002 was $1,4I3,980. The City's contributions were based on eligible
compensation of$1,222,509. The required contribution of 7% of covered payroll amounted to $85,576 for
fiscal year 2002.
The City's annual pension report was filed and accepted by the Department of Administration, Retirement
Division, State of Florida,in accordance with Section 22D-1.06, Florida Administrative Code.

the General Long-Term Debt Account Group.
10. Deferred Revenue and Deposits
Deferred revenue and deposits of$183,684 in the General Fund represent revenues and deposits collected in

Statistical Section
The Statistical Schedules differ from the other financial statement presentations
because they generally disclose more than one fiscal year. They also present non -
accounting data such as social and economic data and financial trends of the City.
The City's Charter does not state a legal debt margin, therefore, a table depicting
such has been omitted.

GOVERMWENT A UDITING ST4NDARDS
The Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
We have audited the general purpose financial statements of City of Cape Canaveral, Florida as of and for the year
ended September 30, 2002, and have issued our report thereon dated January 29, 2003. We conducted our audit in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable
to financial audits contained in Government Xuditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United
States. and the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida.
Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida's general purpose
financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions
— of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions
was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests
— disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards-
Intemal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida's internal control over
financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the
general purpose financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting.
Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting would not necessarily disclose all matters in the
internal control over financial reporting that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in
_ which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk that misstatements in amounts that would be material in relation to the general purpose financial
statements tieing audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over financial reporting and
its operation that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, we noted other matters involving the internal
control over financial reporting that we have reported to management of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, in a
separate letter dated January 29, 2003.
— This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the City Council, the Office of the Auditor
General of the State of Florida, and other funding agencies. However, this report is a matter of public record and its
distribution is not limited.

The Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Cape Canaveral, Florida
In planning and performing our audit of the general purpose financial statements of the City of Cape Canaveral,
Florida, for the year ended September 30, 2002, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting to
plan our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide
assurance on the internal control over financial reporting.
However, during our audit, eve noted certain matters involving the internal control and its operation. Our comments
and recommendations on these matters as well as other rnatters required to be reported to state agencies are included
in the following sections for your consideration. This letter does not affect our report dated January 29, 2003, on the
financial statements of the City of Cape Canaveral, Florida.
We will review the status of these comments during our next audit engagement. Our comments and
recorurnendations, all of which have been discussed with appropriate members of management, are intended to
improve the internal control structure or result in other operating efficiencies. I'Ve will be pleased to discuss these
comrnpnts in further detail at your convenience, to perform any additional study of these matters, or to assist you in
implementing the recommendations.

Management Letter Points
Prior Year Comments Not Repeated in the Current Year
Purchasing
During the prior year, some purchases that ranged between $500 to $5,000 were missing the required approval of the
City Manager. We commend the City on the measures taken to correct this oversight and controls implemented to
ensure necessary approval is obtained.
Prior Year Comments Repeated in the Current Year
Fine and Forfeiture Receipts
As in the prior year, current year cash receipts include monies received from Brevard County, Florida for fines and
forfeitures. Due to problems encountered during a computer conversion in 1999, Brevard County has been unable to
determine the exact amount of fine and forfeiture monies due to the City and has been distributing these dollars
based on an estimate calculated using prior years' distributions until April of this fiscal year. The City has been
notified by the County that an overpayment has been distributed to the City during that time in the amount of
$89,098. As indicated in prior years' management comment, the City elected to escrow a portion of the fines and
forfeitures receipts in anticipation of future adjustments by the County. At the point in time that the City was
notified of the overpayment, the escrow account balance was $91,666. The City plans to reimburse the County from
the escrow account until the assessment is paid in full, no later than September 30, 2003.
GASB 34 Implementation
In June 1999, the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued Statement No, 34, Basic Financial
Statements -and Management's Discussion and 4nalysis- for State and Local Governments. This pronouncement
represents a major change in the way governments like the City of Cape Canaveral report their financial
information. Some of the most important changes to the financial reporting model include:
• Government -wide reporting. In addition to the traditional fund financial statements prepared on the
modified accrual basis of accounting, the City will also be required to present financial statements that focus
on the overall government, "entity -wide" financial statements prepared on the accrual basis of accounting,
similar to private -sector accounting.
• Infrastructure reporting and depreciation accounting. For the first time, state and local governments will be
required to capitalize infrastructure assets (i.e. roads, bridges, etc.). In addition, governments will be
required to compute and report depreciation of capital assets.
• Net expense format for entity -wide statement of activities. The new entity -wide statement of activities is
designed to report expenses by program, net of related revenue.
Based upon fiscal year 2001 revenues, the City of Cape Canaveral will be required to implement GASB 34
beginning with the 2004 fiscal year, although early implementation is encouraged.
With such a major overhaul of the financial accounting and reporting standards for state and local governments, it
will take a substantial amount of time and effort to prepare for these changes. The accounting systems will have to
be redesigned to capture and report new information. Policies and procedures may need to be revised to support the
accrual basis of accounting. In this regard, we are pleased to note the City Treasurer has attended specialized
courses and has become knowledgeable of these new requirements.
78
Management Letter Points, continued
Prior Year Comments Repeated in the Current Year, continued
GASB 34 Implementation, continued
We recommend the City establish an implementation plan along with a timetable for completion of the various
stages. At a minimum, the plan should address the following, education and training of personnel; evaluation of
current accounting procedures and systems for compliance with and adaptability to the new standards; methods and
processes for calculating accumulated depreciation of capital assets as of the implementation date; and the approach
to reporting expenses and revenues by program in the entity -wide financial statements.
Current Year Comments
Fund Balances
The fund balance account represents the amount of financial resources remaining as of the statement date (i.e., the
fund's assets minus it liabilities). As the General Fund is the primary operating fund of the City, its fund balance
should normally be maintained at a level that would temporarily sustain operations during short-term adverse
economic conditions. Essentially, it should provide a contingency for any operating cash flow deficiencies in the
short-term and/or provide for unexpected, emergency expenditures. Accordingly, it is common practice and
advisable to maintain an operating fund balance at an amount equal to two to three months budgeted expenditures.
We believe that an amount approximating a minimum of three -months of average operating expenditures should be
considered an absolute minimum fund balance position over the long-term. Presently, based on the City's actual
expenditures during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2002, a three-month operating level would amounts to
$1,200,683.
As of September 30, 2002, the unreserved/undesignated fund balance of the City's General Fund was $2,498,176.
At September 30, 2002, total fund balance, which includes reserves and designations increased by $500,322;
however, it should be noted that this increase includes $299,953 of other financing source income that is not
expected to reoccur in the next fiscal year.
We encourage the City to review its policies related to fund balances and consider formally designating a portion of
the fund balance for emergencies and other unforeseen purposes. In addition, we recommend that a policy be
developed regarding the use of unreserved fund balance.
Capital Asset Capitalization Policy
As the City's finance department prepares for the implementation of GASB Statement No. 34, the staff has invested
time and energy in the update and maintenance of the General Fixed Assets detail listing. Once GASB Statement
No. 34 is implemented, the recording and tracking of capital assets is expanded to include the calculation and
recording of depreciation.
We noted that purchases of "small dollar" items were included in the asset listing and in the current year's capital
outlay accounts. The City's policies and procedures provide for all equipment having a value of at least $500 and an
expected life of at least twelve months shall be defined as a fixed asset. Currently, Florida Statute 274.02 requires
that assets costing $750 or more be capitalized and carried in inventory. We encourage the City to consider
evaluation of its current capitalization policy to determine whether or not an increase in the capital purchase floor is
desired.

OTHER ITEMS REQUIRED TO PE REPORTED PURSUANT
TO THE RULES OF THE AUDITOR GENERAL
Prior Year Recommendations
Reconunendations made in the proceeding annual audit have been followed.
Investments
The investment activity of the City is in compliance with Section 218.415(15), Florida Statutes, governing the types
of authorized investments and with the City's written investment policy.
Legal Authority
The City of Cape Canaveral, Florida, (City), was created pursuant to Chapter 73-129, Laws of Florida, in 1962.
Component units include the Beautification Board and the Library Fund both of which are composed of members
appointed by City Council and included within the City's Special Revenue Funds. All management, administrative
and internal controls related to these funds are handled exclusively by the City.
Financial Emergency
As required by Rules of the Auditor General (Section 10.554(1)(g)(6a)), the scope of our audit included a review of
the provisions of Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes regarding financial emergencies. In connection with our
audit, we determined that the City is not in a state of financial emergency as a consequence of the conditions
described in Section 218.503(1), Florida Statutes.
Annual Financial Report
The City's Annual Financial Report for the year ended September 30, 2002, required to be filed with the Department
of Banking and Finance pursuant to Section 218.32, Florida Statutes, is in agreement with the annual audit report for
the same period.
Financial Condition Assessment Procedures
As required by the rules of the Auditor General (Sections 10.554(g)(6c) and 10.556), we applied financial condition
assessment procedures as of the year ended September 30, 2002. It is management's responsibility to monitor the
City's financial condition, and our financial condition assessment was based in part on representations made by
management and the review of financial information provided by the same.

compliance. Many of the procedures necessary have already been adopted.
CURRENT YEAR COMMENTS
Fund Balances
The City is currently working on a Fund Balance Policy that would provide for emergencies and also provide the
necessary guidelines as to the further use of Fund Balance in excess of the required emergency funding. It is also
our intent, within the policy, to provide a framework for the maintenance of the fund balance.
Capital Asset Capitalization Poliev
Historically the City has followed the State in their requirements concerning Fixed Assets. The increase from $500
to $750 will provide a more realistic capitalization threshold for assets expected to last longer than twelve months.
The City will continue to follow the State Statutes concerning the capitalization policy. A listing of all assets
currently recorded in Fixed Assets that fall below the increased level will be provided to Council for removal
approval. This will be completed prior to implementation of GASB 34,

Re: Ordinance - Special Exception Alcohol Beverage
City of Cape Canaveral - General
Our File No.: 513-001
Dear Bennett:
Erin J. O'Leary
Of Counsel
Please find enclosed herewith for your consideration a proposed Ordinance which
amends Section 110-171 of the City Code, regarding special exceptions for establishments
serving alcoholic beverages.
As you will recall, the Board of Adjustment recently tabled an application due to the
applicant's failure to comply specifically with the requirements of Section 110-171. During
discussion it became obvious there was confusion regarding the minimum scale to be
provided for floor plan drawings. The proposed Ordinance makes three modifications to
this section.
The first is in Section 110-171(a)(2)c.3., and provides specifically when the owner's
affidavit should be filed with the City. The Planning & Zoning Board had previously
requested this modification.

The second is in Section 110-171(a)(3), and removes an outdated reference.
The third is in Section 110-171(5)c., and provides that the building floor plan shall
be drawn at a scale appropriate for the establishment, but in no case shall be less than
one-eighth (118) inch equals one (1) foot.
The Planning and Zoning Board has reviewed this proposed Ordinance and have
recommended approval to the City Council.
