Board of Commissioners' Minutes December 27, 2001 Page 9 In order for the County to demonstrate responsible stewardship, it is essential that adequate accounting procedures and records permit the assignment of responsibility for custody and proper use of specific fixed (capital) assets to individual public officials, and serve as a prerequisite to preparation of satisfactory and complete financial reports. A. GOAL The establishment and maintenance of a Fixed Asset System is essential to provide management with data for the physical and dollar value control of assets. B. MANAGEMENT OBJECTIVES The management objectives of the Fixed (Capital) Asset System are: 1. To assign responsibility for the custody and proper use of specific assets to individuals, officials or department heads. 2. To substantiate valuations of fixed assets in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) for fiscal reporting. 3. To control retirements of fixed assets by type of retirement, i.e. sales, trade-ins, thefts, and items scrapped. 4. To assist in providing depreciation computations for Federal, State, and Proprietary reporting purposes. 5. To serve as a basis for valuation for insurance purposes and to provide a record of assets insured. 6. To encourage transfer of surplus equipment to area of need. 7. To aid in budget preparation, analysis, and approval. GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION A. FIXED ASSET DEFINITION A fixed asset of Otter Tail County is defined as a specific piece of property, which meets the following attributes: 1. It is tangible in nature in that the physical substance does not materially change its form through use. 2. Its expected useful life is greater than one year. 3. It has significant value. In Otter Tail County's financial system, significant value means that it has a cost of $5,000.00 or more. 4. Included are land, improvements to land, buildings, building improvements, vehicles, machinery, equipment, works of art, and historical treasures. B. VALUATION OF FIXED ASSETS Fixed assets should be accounted for at cost, or if cost is not practicably determinable, at estimated cost. 1. Cost: Fixed assets should be recorded at cost or consideration received, whichever is more objectively determinable. The cost of a capital asset includes not only its purchase price or construction cost, but also the ancillary charges necessary to place the asset in its intended location and condition for use. Ancillary charges include costs such as freight and transportation charges, site preparation expenditures, professional fees, and legal claims directly attributable to asset acquisition. 2. Estimated Cost: Initial costs of fixed assets usually are readily ascertainable from contracts, purchase orders and other transaction documents at the time of OTCo. Board of Commissioners' Minutes December 27, 2001 Page IO acquisition or construction. Otter Tail County was faced with the task of establishing appropriate fixed asset accounting records and valuations after many years of operation without such records. Therefore, the original documents may not have been available, or an inordinate expenditure of resources would have been required to establish original asset cost precisely. It was necessary to estimate the original cost of such assets on the basis of such documentary evidence as was available. C. ACQUISITION OF FIXED ASSETS 1. Purchase: A purchase is an acquisition through direct outlay of cash and/or other consideration for the fixed asset. The book value of an older fixed asset traded in for a new one does not always affect the basis of the new asset. 2. Construction: Construction includes buildings actually constructed by the County. The labor, materials, equipment and overhead costs are all part of the construction cost. 3. Lease-Purchase and Installment Purchase: Lease-Purchase Agreements are contractual agreements which, in substance, amount to purchase contracts. General fixed assets acquired via Lease-Purchase Agreements are capitalized in the Fixed Asset System at the inception of the agreement in the amount of the item if it had been purchased outright. Multiple year installment contracts are accounted for in the same manner as Lease Purchase Agreements. 4. Gift: Governments may acquire properties by gift. Donated fixed assets should be recorded to the fund to which they relate or in the Fixed Asset System, as appropriate, at the estimated fair value at time of acquisition. D. TREATMENT OF COSTS SUBSEQUENT TO ACQUISITION Expenditures on fixed assets which are incurred after their original acquisition are defined and recorded as follows: 1. Maintenance: Maintenance costs are those which neither materially add to the value of the property nor appreciable prolong its life, but merely keep it in ordinary, efficient operating condition. Maintenance costs are not charged to capital accounts, but to maintenance and repair expenditure accounts. 2. Betterments: Betterments consist of the replacement of a unit of an existing asset by an improved or superior UNIT, usually resulting in a more productive, efficient, or longer-lived asset. Significant betterments are considered to be capital asset additions and are added to the value of the property i.e. shed added to a Landfill Site. The decision as to whether a betterment has been effected is made by an evaluation of engineering, physical or other relevant factors apart from cost. Replacement of a part of an existing asset by another of like quality is not a betterment, even though the useful life of the asset is maintained or extended. These costs are charged to expenditure accounts. E. RETIREMENT The term retirement is used to describe the removal of a fixed asset from the Fixed Asset System. The various types of retirement are defined below and must be reported to the Auditor's Office to ensure that changes are entered in the system. 1. Sale of Fixed Asset: Fixed assets and/or non-expendable supplies, which are to be sold, are subject to the requirements described in Minnesota State Statute. Items, which are sold, will be retired from the Fixed Asset System by the Auditor's Office. 0 0 0 0 0 0 OTCo. Board of Commissioners' Minutes December 27, 2001 Page 11 2. Trade-In: A department head retiring a fixed asset as a trade-in for a new acquisition will inform the Auditor's Office of the retirement. 3. Lost, Stolen or Damaged Beyond Repair: When a fixed asset is retired from the fixed asset system through one of these unexpected methods, the incident will be reported to the appropriate law enforcement personnel (if applicable) and to the County Coordinator's Office for insurance purposes. The department head must also notify the Auditor's Office so that changes can be entered into the Fixed Asset System. F. TRANSFERS 1. 1. Transfer: When a fixed asset item is transferred to a different department, the department head who is responsible for the item must inform the Auditor's Office of the change in ownership and location. The Auditor's Office will enter these changes into the Fixed Asset System. FIXED ASSET MAINTENANCE The Auditor's Office will send tci each department head, as possible, no less than annually, a listing of year to date fixed assets added to the Fixed Asset System for each Department. This should be done by March for the prior year end and returned by the department to the Auditor's Office within 30 days of receipt. a. It will be the Department Head's or designee's, responsibility to reconcile the year to date Fixed Asset listing for the department he/she is responsible for with the Capital expenditures shown in the general ledger for the same time period. b. All new purchase additions, changes, or deletions to the Fixed Asset System are to be made by notification from the departments to the Auditor's Office. c. The Auditor's Office will input the information to the Fixed Asset System, and return the updated list for each year end to the department for reviewing the lists for accuracy. After reviewing the list the department is to sign the list and return it to the Auditor's Office.

The Board may also delegate to the District, by order identifying each specific improvement to which the delegation applies, financing authority for improvements under chapter 429 and section 444.075, including, but not limited to: (1) the levy of special assessments; (2) the imposition of rates and charges; and (3) the issuance 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. of bonds to finance improvements that the District may undertake. The District has undertaken to study the feasibility and public health, economic and environmental benefit of constructing a joint water and sewer system within the District. The District has undertaken its study with approval from the Board and from the District's constituents, but without a specific delegation of authority from the Board. Similarly, the District has undertaken other projects and programs with approval from the Board and from the District's constituents without a specific delegation of authority from the Board. The Directors have also asked the Board to clarify or provide a procedure for adding formerly agricultural land to the District. The Board's original Order establishing the District excepted from the District certain agricultural lands otherwise located within the boundaries of the District. Many of those agricultural lands are no longer in a primary agricultural use and many more of those lands are in transition to non-agricultural uses. It is the intent of the Board that all non-agricultural lands within the boundaries of the District, as described in the Order originally establishing the District, be included in the District. The Directors may, by confirming the changed land use with the County Auditor and Assessor, and by notifying the owner of the lands and the Administrator of the Otter Tail County Department of Land and Resource Management, add those lands no longer in agricultural use to the District. 16. The Board adopted a resolution of intent to consider amending the Order establishing the District on August 14, 2001. 17. The Board finds that an amendment to the order establishing the District, delegating specific powers and authorities to the District, clarifying the financing means and authorities of the District, and providing a procedure for the inclusion of properties within the District that are no longer of primarily agricultural use, would 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. be beneficial to the efficient function of the District. The Board published notice of a public hearing on a proposed amendment to the order establishing the District. The affidavit of publication is attached to and incorporated into these findings by reference. The Board provided written notice to Dunn and Scambler Townships, Otter Tail County, Minnesota, of the proposed amendment to the order establishing the District and encouraged each to comment on the proposed amendment. The Board held its public hearing on December 18, 2001, to take public comment on the proposed amendment to the order establishing the District. The Board allowed for written comments regarding the proposed amendment to the order establishing the District to be received and considered by the Board. After considering the comments of those present at the hearing and the written comments presented to the Board, the Board finds that the functions and authorities delegated to the District by the proposed amendment are necessary and beneficial for the continued improvement of the Pelican Group of Lakes; that the public welfare will be promoted by the delegation of the functions and OTCo. Board of Commissioners' Minutes December 27, 2001 Page 14 authorities contained in the proposed amendment; that property within the District will benefit from the District's prudent exercise of the functions and authorities contained in the proposed amendment; and that the delegation of the functions and authorities contained in the proposed amendment will not cause or contribute to long-range environmental pollution, but rather, will improve the long-range environmental and economic condition of the District and the region. 23. The delegation of the functions and authorities contained in the proposed amendment will benefit the public welfare by enabling residents of the District to efficiently and effectively plan for, construct and finance projects and programs to address issues of water quality, related land resources and water surface use. 24. The delegation of the functions and authorities contained in the proposed amendment will benefit the property values and quality of life within the district by providing a means of establishing and financing economically and environmentally beneficial improvements that enhance and maintain the environmental quality of the Pelican Group of Lakes and the surrounding land areas. Therefore, the Board makes the following: ORDER 25. The order establishing the Pelican Group of Lakes Improvement District is amended as indicated below in bold: a. The boundaries of the Pelican Group of Lakes Improvement District shall encompass all parcels of real property, any part of which is located within 500 feet of the ordinary high water mark of Bass, Big Pelican, Fish and Little Pelican Lakes in Scambler and Dunn Townships of Otter Tail County, to include the entire tax parcels, except for all such parcels classified for agricultural use. As the use of agricultural lands within the 500 foot boundary of the District changes to non-agricultural use, the District may, by confirming the change of use to the County Auditor and Assessor, and by notifying the owner of the property and the Administrator of the Otter Tail County Department of Land and Resource Management, include those formerly agricultural lands in the District. b. The water and related land resource management programs to be undertaken in the district include the following: i. develop and implement a comprehensive plan to eliminate water pollution; ii. receive financial assistance from and participate in projects or enter into contracts with federal and state agencies for the study and treatment of pollution problems and related demonstration programs; iii. undertake research to determine the condition and development of the body of water included within the lake improvement district and to transmit the studies to the Department of Natural Resources, the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency and other interested authorities; iv. make cooperative agreements with the United States or state government or other county or city to effectuate water and related land resource programs; v. conduct programs of water improvement and conservation; vi. implement a water monitoring system; vii. serve as local sponsor for state and federal projects or grants; viii. regulate water surface use as deemed necessary and reasonable; or ix. such other programs, plans, studies, developments and implementations as are allowed or permitted by law, and approved by the County Board from time to time. • 0 0 0 .. 0 0 0 OTCo.
