We conducted our audits in accordance w ith auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management of the City of Temple is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In planning and performing our audits , we considered the City's in ternal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opin ion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over financ ial reporting . A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees , in the normal course of performing their assigned funct ions, to prevent , or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable possi bility that a material misstatement of the financial statements wi ll not be prevented , or detected and corrected on a timely basis . Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we cons ider to be material weaknesses, as defined above . Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's Proposition A local Return Fund, Proposition C Local Return Fund , Measure R Local Return Fund and Transportation Development Act Article 3 Fund, financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations , contracts , and grant agreements, 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 opin ion . The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
