In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Jefferson, Missouri as of October 31, 2022, and the respective changes in financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We did not audit the financial statement of the discretely presented component unit, the Jefferson City Convention and Visitor’s Bureau, which represents 2.6 percent, 3.3 percent, and .10 percent, respectively, of the assets, net position, and revenue of the governmental activities of the City of Jefferson, Missouri. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. 7 Basis for Opinions 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 Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City of Jefferson, Missouri and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Jefferson, Missouri’s ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter. Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, we: Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 8 Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Jefferson, Missouri’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements. Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City of Jefferson, Missouri’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit. Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, pension information, post-employment information, and budgetary comparison schedules, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Jefferson, Missouri’s basic financial statements. The supplemental financial statements and schedules as listed in the table of contents and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information, except for the budget information, has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, 9 including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplemental financial statements and schedules, except for the budget information, as listed in the table contents and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The budget information has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated June 5, 2023, on our consideration of the City of Jefferson, Missouri internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Jefferson, Missouri internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering City of Jefferson, Missouri’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. EVERS & COMPANY, CPA’s, L.L.C. Jefferson City, Missouri June 5, 2023 10 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) As management of the City of Jefferson, we offer readers of the City of Jefferson’s financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Jefferson for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the financial statements and related footnotes. Financial Highlights The assets and deferred outflows of the City of Jefferson exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources as of October 31, 2022 by $252,682,309 (net position). Of this amount, $28,924,471 (unrestricted net position) may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors. The unrestricted net position in the governmental activities was $17,773,523 and $11,150,948 in the business-type activities. The City of Jefferson’s total net position increased by $10,804,840 of which $8,503,215 was from an increase in net position in the governmental activities and $2,301,625 was from an increase in net position in the business-type activities. The key factors were a decrease of $1,005,428 in Net Investment in Capital Assets in the governmental activities; an increase of $945,111 in Restricted for Parks in the governmental activities; an increase of $181,692 in Restricted for Capital Projects in the governmental activities; an increase of $1,464,605 in Restricted for Public Safety in the governmental activities; an increase of $6,917,235 in Unrestricted Net Position in the governmental activities; an increase of $1,984,380 in Net Investment in Capital Assets in the business-type activities; a decrease of $1,359,188 in Revenue Bond Debt Service requirements in the business-type activities; an increase of $737,409 in Restricted for Pensions/OPEB in the business-type activities; and an increase of $3,689,878 in Unrestricted Net Position in the business-type activities. As of the close of fiscal year 2022, the City of Jefferson’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $32,023,468 – an increase of $3,072,401 in comparison with the prior year. The amount available for disbursement at the government’s discretion is $8,195,657 since that is the government funds combined unassigned fund balance. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance for the general fund was $8,195,657 or 22.2% of total general fund expenditures, or 21.7% of total general fund expenditures and transfers out. The City of Jefferson’s total debt decreased by $5,121,141. This was due to the retirement of Sewerage System revenue bond principal in the amount of $4,496,000; the retirement of Parks special obligation bond principal in the $295,000; and the payment of lease principal for the fire apparatus in the amount of $330,141. Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of Jefferson’s basic financial statements. The City of Jefferson’s basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements. Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City of Jefferson’s finances in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The statement of net position presents information on the difference between (assets plus the deferred outflow of resources) and (liabilities plus the deferred inflows of resources) as net position for the City of Jefferson. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City of Jefferson is improving or deteriorating. The statement of activities presents information showing how the government’s net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenue and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes, grants receivable and earned but unused vacation and sick leave). Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of Jefferson that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City of Jefferson include general government, public safety, community development, and cultural and recreation. The business-type activities of the City of Jefferson include Wastewater, Airport, Parking and Transit. 11 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) The government-wide financial statements include not only the City of Jefferson itself (known as the primary government), but also a legal separate non-profit organization, Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau for which the City of Jefferson is financially accountable. Financial information for this component unit is reported separately from the financial information presented for the primary government itself. The government-wide financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements in the Financial Section of this report. A separate audited financial report of the JCCVB is publicly available by written request from the Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau, Inc., 700 E. Capitol Avenue, Jefferson City, MO 65101. Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of Jefferson, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City of Jefferson can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds. Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable and nonspendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near- term financing requirements. Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in the fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The City of Jefferson maintains ten individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the general fund, parks fund, capital improvement tax fund, and public safety tax fund, which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other six governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements in the Financial Section of this report. The City of Jefferson adopts an annual appropriated budget for all of its funds. A budgetary comparison schedule has been provided for all governmental funds to demonstrate compliance with the budget. Proprietary funds. The City of Jefferson maintains two different types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City of Jefferson uses enterprise funds to account for its wastewater, airport, parking and transit operations. Information is presented separately in the statement of net position, proprietary funds, and the statement of revenues, expenses, and changes in net position, proprietary funds, for the wastewater and transit funds, which are considered to be the major funds. Data from the other two enterprise funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor enterprise funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report. The other type of proprietary funds are internal service funds for workers compensation self-insurance and self-funded health insurance which are combined into a single aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds are provided in the form of combining statements in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules section of this report. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements in the Financial Section of this report. Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statement because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The City maintains one custodial fund for Tax Increment Financing. The basic custodial fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements in the Financial Section of this report. 12 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential for a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements in the Financial Section of this report. Other information. The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with nonmajor governmental funds, enterprise funds, and internal service funds can be found in the Supplemental Financial Statements and Schedules in the Financial Section of this report. Government-wide Financial Analysis As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of Jefferson, assets and deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $252,682,309 which increased $10,804,840 over the prior year. The change in net position in the governmental activities was $8,503,215 and $2,301,625 in business-type activities. The key factors were a decrease of $1,005,428 in Net Investment in Capital Assets in the governmental activities; an increase of $945,111 in Restricted for Parks in the governmental activities; an increase of $181,692 in Restricted for Capital Projects in the governmental activities; an increase of $1,464,605 in Restricted for Public Safety in the governmental activities; an increase of $6,917,235 in Unrestricted Net Position in the governmental activities; an increase of $1,984,380 in Net Investment in Capital Assets in the business-type activities; a decrease of $1,359,188 in Revenue Bond Debt Service requirements in the business-type activities; an increase of $737,409 in Restricted for Pensions/OPEB in the business-type activities; and an increase of $3,689,878 in Unrestricted Net Position in the business-type activities. The total net position in the Wastewater Fund (business- type activity) increased by $1,928,766 due in part to an increase in sewer charges for services ($495,024) to offset future bond requirements. Long-term liabilities decrease of $4,653,377 was due primarily to a decrease of $633,475 in Long Term Debt in the governmental activities; an increase of $295,742 in Compensated Absences in the governmental activities; a decrease of $295,165 in Net OPEB Liability in the governmental activities; a decrease of $64,481 in Net OPEB Liability in the business-type activities; and a decrease of $4,618,103 in Revenue Bonds Payable in the business-type activities. Other liabilities decrease of $1,377,577 was due primarily to a decrease in accounts payable of $1,028,310 in governmental activities; a decrease in retainage payable of $158,683 in governmental activities; an increase in accrued liabilities of $326,290 in governmental activities; an increase in deposits of $15,556 in governmental activities; an increase in due to component unit of $44,311 in governmental activities; a decrease in accounts payable of $417,048 in business-type activities; an increase in retainage payable of $55,006 in business-type activities; an increase in accrued liabilities of $20,691 in business-type activities; an increase of $25,303 in deposits in business-type activities; a decrease of $101,963 in unearned revenue in business-type activities; a decrease of $58,594 in accrued interest payable in business-type activities. By far the largest portion of the City of Jefferson’s net position (79.1%) reflects its net investment in capital assets (e.g., land, infrastructure, buildings, machinery and equipment). The City of Jefferson uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City of Jefferson’s investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. An additional portion of the City of Jefferson’s net position (9.4%) represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.

Governmental activities increased the City of Jefferson’s net position by $8,503,215 compared to the increase of $16,850,228 last fiscal year. Key elements of the City of Jefferson’s governmental activities were an increase in expenses and transfers of $7,907,351 and a decrease of revenue of $439,662 from the prior fiscal year. The revenue decrease was primarily due to an increase of $425,263 in charges for services in the governmental activities; an increase of $398,446 in operating grants and contributions in the governmental activities; a decrease of $4,346,567 in capital grants and contributions in the governmental 15 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) activities, which was primarily due to the receipt of local grant funds from the Parks Foundation for the Bicentennial Bridge project and receipt of City/County Joint Project funds, in the prior fiscal year but not in the current fiscal year; an increase of $3,904,748 in sales and other user taxes in the governmental activities; an increase of $22,556 in property taxes in the governmental activities; an increase of $194,187 in franchise and utility license taxes in the governmental activities; and a decrease of $1,038,295 in other revenues in the governmental activities. 16 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Business-type activities: Business-type activities increased the City of Jefferson’s net position by $2,301,625 compared to the increase of $1,003,587 last fiscal year. Key elements of this increase are as follows: Charges for services for business-type activities increased by a total of $620,484 (4,89%). The Wastewater charges for services increased from the last fiscal year by $492,948 (4.28%). The Parking charges for services increased by $80,048 (9.35%). The Transit charges for services increased by $16,720 (11.35%). The Airport charges for services increased by $30,768 (17,58%). Operating grants and contributions increased by $1,074,853 (71.82%). Capital grants and contributions increased by $214,630 (33.44%) which was due primarily to a decrease in Wastewater’s capital grants of $36,225; and an increase in Airport’s capital grants of $250,855. 17 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Analysis of the Government’s Funds As noted earlier, the City of Jefferson uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. Governmental funds. The focus of the City of Jefferson’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City of Jefferson’s financing requirements. In particular, the unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Jefferson’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $32,023,468, an increase of $3,072,401 in comparison with the prior fiscal year. The amount available for spending at the government’s discretion was $8,195,657 since this is the government funds combined unassigned fund balance. The remainder of the fund balance ($23,827,811) is either nonspendable, restricted, committed, or assigned to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been committed to a) liquidate contracts and purchase orders of prior period relating to capital improvement tax projects and grant related expenditures ($3,181,677), b) restrict other capital commitments ($19,180,884), c) restrict specific donations ($738,090), and d) account for nonspendable inventories and prepaids ($727,160). The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City of Jefferson. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance of the general fund was $8,195,657 while the total fund balance reached $10,277,883. The unassigned fund balance increased $195,402 from the previous fiscal year. This was due primarily to an increase in sales and other user taxes of $901,993; an increase in property taxes of $10,589; an increase in utility/franchise taxes of $194,521; a decrease in licenses, permits and fees of $129,910; an increase in intergovernmental of $1,545,910; an increase in charges for services of $275,110; and a decrease in fine and forfeitures of $65,161, while transfers out increased by $81,062 due primarily to a decrease to the Transit Fund of $392,637; and an increase to the Airport Fund of $34,205. Additionally, there were transfers out of an additional $439,494 to various City Funds related to American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. As a measure of the general fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both the unassigned fund balance and the total fund balance to total fund expenditures. The unassigned fund balance represents 22.2% of the total general fund expenditures ($36,957,074), while the total fund balance represents 27.8% of that same amount. In addition, unassigned fund balance represents 21.7% of total general fund expenditures and transfers out ($37,696,957), while the total fund balance represents 27.3% of that same amount. Transfers include subsidies to Airport ($113,317) and Transit ($187,073). The City of Jefferson’s three other major governmental funds are the Parks Fund, the Capital Improvement Tax Fund, and the Public Safety Tax Fund . As of the fiscal year-end the fund balance analysis is as follows: 18 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) 2022 2021 2022 2021 2022 2021 Net changes in fund balances $ 529,722 $ 234,782 $ 1,061,578 $ 2,321,513 $ 1,424,475 $- Restricted fund balance 5,345,876 6,993,079 6,939,697 9,090,085 1,424,475 - Total fund balance 8,957,028 8,427,306 11,170,246 10,108,668 1,424,475 - Fund revenues 11,283,220 13,381,900 6,864,437 8,659,178 1,904,507 - Fund expenditures 10,935,838 14,132,061 5,910,484 4,459,683 - - Restricted fund balance percentage of expenditures 48.9% 53.4%117.4% 203.8%- - Total fund balance percentage of expenditures 81.9% 59.6%189.0% 226.7%- - Parks Fund Public Safety Tax FundCapital Improvement Tax Fund The Parks Fund accounts for Parks Administration; Ice Arena; Oak Hills Golf Course; Memorial Pool; Ellis Porter Pool; Parks Maintenance; Recreation Programs; Outdoor Recreation Programs; Camp Programs; the Linc; the Amphitheater; and Arts and Events. Parks revenue decreased $2,098,680 from the previous fiscal year’s revenue and expenditures decreased $3,196,223. The key factors in the increase in revenue were an increase in sales and other user taxes of $433,772; an increase in intergovernmental of $162,945; a decrease in local grants of $3,055,619; an increase in charges for services of $346,026; an increase in investment earnings of $21,359; and a decrease in miscellaneous revenue of $7,163 from the prior fiscal year. The Parks fund balance increased by $529,722. A factor in the increase of the parks fund balance was a decrease in proceeds from the sale of assets in the amount of $921,018 and an increase in transfers in in the amount of $118,415 compared to the prior fiscal year. The Capital Improvement Tax Fund accounts for sales tax funded capital improvement projects. The Capital Improvement Tax Fund revenue, including proceeds from sale of assets and transfers, decreased from the previous fiscal year by $1,595,968 and expenditures including transfers decreased by $336,033 over the previous fiscal year. The decrease in revenue was primarily due to an increase in sales and other user taxes of $433,794; a decrease in intergovernmental of $2,285,115; an increase in investment earnings of $56,580; and an increase in sale of assets of $198,773 from the previous fiscal year. Capital improvement projects that were reappropriated in fiscal year 2022 from 2021 amounted to $6,107,427 (from uncompleted projects.) The Capital Improvement Tax fund balance increased by $1,061,578. The Public Safety Tax Fund accounts for sales tax specifically designated for public safety that are legally restricted to expenditures for the benefit of public safety. The Public Safety Tax Fund revenue increased from the previous fiscal year by $1,904,507 and expenditures including transfers increased by $480,032 over the previous fiscal year. The increase in revenue was primarily due to an increase in sales and other user taxes of $1,900,790; and an increase in investment earnings of $3,717 from the previous fiscal year. The Public Safety Tax fund balance increased by $1,424,475. Proprietary funds. The City of Jefferson’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail. Unrestricted net position of the enterprise funds at the end of the year amounted to $11,318,350 to reflect the consolidation of the Internal Service Fund related to the enterprise funds in the government-wide financial statements) as follows: 19 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Unrestricted Net positon: 2022 2021 Airport $ 158,715 $ 195,561 Parking $ 5,243,001 $ 5,226,229 Transit $ 225,978 $ 8,799 Wastewater $ 5,690,656 $ 2,212,776 The total gain in net position was $2,286,732, compared to last fiscal year’s gain of $976,564 as follows: Total Growth (Loss) in Net Position: 2022 2021 Airport $ (229,564) $ (805,261) Parking $ 282,167 $ 215,154 Transit $ 305,363 $ (430,930) Wastewater $ 1,928,766 $ 1,997,601 Other factors concerning the finances of these enterprise funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the City of Jefferson’s business-type activities. General Fund Budgetary Highlights Original budget compared to final budget. During the year original budgeted revenues and other financing sources, and in turn original budgeted expenditures, were increased by $11,054,920 for grant awards; $10,829 for accepted donations; and $10,472 to allow departments to utilize insurance claim proceeds. There was also a need to make amendments to reallocate appropriations among departments. Generally, the movement of the appropriations between departments was not significant. Final budget compared to actual results. The most significant differences between estimated revenues and actual revenues were as follows: 20 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Revenue source Estimated revenues Actual revenues Variance Sales and other user taxes $ 12,617,475 $ 13,775,230 $ 1,157,755 Licenses, permits, and fees 1,066,438 905,659 (160,779) Intergovernmental 17,371,746 5,638,505 (11,733,241) Fines and forfeitures 580,000 413,558 (166,442) Miscellaneous 547,898 702,031 154,133 The reasons for the variances in the above revenue sources vary depending on the revenue source. The sales and other user taxes were more than estimated. While Council estimated a conservative 2.5% increase over the prior years adopted budget for sales tax, actual collections were 9.18% higher than the estimated budget. The license, permits, and fees were less than estimated primarily due to the fact that actual building construction fees were $167,164 less than the estimated budget. The original budget included projects that came to the City’s attention prior to the budgeting process, but ultimately did not come to fruition. Intergovernmental is the classification used to report grant revenues. Most of the grants that the City receives are reimbursable grants, meaning that City must incur the expenses and then request them for reimbursement. Revenues are budgeted when a grant is accepted, however revenues are not recognized until the expenditures have been reimbursed. Due to the fact that many grants span multiple years, it is common for the City to accept a grant in one fiscal year and in turn include the revenue in the budget, but not actually receive revenue until a subsequent fiscal year. The fines and forfeitures were less than estimated primarily due to the fact that police traffic fines were $151,028 less than the estimated budget. Collections of these fines is driven by ticket writing, which has been down considerably. Miscellaneous revenues were more than estimated primarily due to the fact that actual collections of police evidence funds were $74,747 higer than the estimated budget and insurance claims revenue was $24,421 higher than the estimated budget. The most significant differences in between estimated expenditures and actual expenditures were as follows: 21 City of Jefferson, Missouri Management’s Discussion and Analysis For the Year Ended October 31, 2022 (unaudited) Expenditure source Esti mate d expenditures Actual expenditures Variance Non-departmental $ 3,425,336 $ 3,000,262 $ 425,074 Entitlement grant 822,681 185,337 637,344 CDBG-CV Transformational Housing 575,760 - 575,760 HPF-P Bruhn Revitalization 675,000 64 674,936 CDGB-CV Cole County EMS Station 2,000,000 - 2,000,000 ARPA 5,780,918 310,663 5,470,255 Police 12,796,706 11,867,373 929,333 Fire 8,693,965 8,434,411 259,554 Capital Projects 3,711,522 297,366 3,414,156 Actual expenditures for the Entitlement Grant, CDBG-CV Transformational Housing, HPF-P Bruhn Revitalization, CDBG-CV Cole County EMS Station, and ARPA are less than the estimated expenditures due to the fact that the estimated expenditures are grant related. Budget authority is given when a grant is accepted, however due to the fact that many grants span multiple years, it is common for the City to accept a grant in one fiscal year and in turn increase estimated expenditures, but not actually expend the funds until a preceding fiscal year. The estimated expenditures for Non-departmental were based on a specific amount of funds allocated for Capitol Avenue demolitions and acquisitions, some of which will span multiple years. Remaining funds were reappropriated to fiscal year 2023 and will be spent on designated demolitions and acquisitions as needed. Police and Fire actual expenditures are less than the estimated expenditures due to staffing vacancies, some of which are a result of retirements at higher level positions. The estimated expenditures for Capital Projects were based on total cost for specific projects, some of which will span multiple years. Remaining funds were reappropriated to fiscal year 2023 and will be spent on the designated projects as they are completed. Capital Asset and Debt Administration Capital Assets. The City of Jefferson’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business type activities as of October 31, 2022, amounts to $246,302,435 (net of accumulated depreciation).

However, in the (1,341,145) statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current period. Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.2,417,856 The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, donations) is to increase net position.(205,505) The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items: Lease payments 330,142 Bond payments 303,333 Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources and therefore are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds.

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 government's accounting policies are described below. A. Reporting Entity The City of Jefferson is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor and ten-member council. The accompanying financial statements present the government and its component units, entities for which the government is considered to be financially accountable. In evaluating how to define the government for financial reporting purposes, management has considered all potential component units. The decision to include a potential component unit in the reporting entity was made by applying the criteria set forth in GAAP. The City's relationship to other legally separate organizations has been examined to determine if their inclusion in the City's financial statements is necessary to fairly present the financial position of the City. The criteria used in this determination included an examination of the nature and significance of the organization's relationship with the City, financial benefit or burden to the City, the ability of the City Council to appoint members of the entity's governing board, and the level of influence the City has over the activities of the organization. Based upon the application of these criteria, the following is a brief review of each potential component unit addressed in defining the City's reporting entity. Included within the reporting entity: Jefferson City Convention & Visitors Bureau Inc.  The Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau (JCCVB) Financial Statement (for fiscal year ended December 31, 2021) is included as a discretely presented component unit because it is a legally separate non-profit organization and in excess of 60% of the organizations total revenue is provided by the City from a 7% lodging tax assessed by the City of Jefferson. Additionally, the City approves their annual operating budget and appoints their governing board.  A separate audited financial report of JCCVB is publicly available by written request from the Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau Inc., 700 E. Capitol Avenue, Jefferson City, MO 65101. Excluded from the reporting entity: ● Jefferson City Public School District ● City of Jefferson Housing Authority ● City of Jefferson Industrial Development Authority ● Missouri River Regional Library System B. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of changes in net position) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from the statements. Exceptions to this general rule are administrative chargebacks and Central Maintenance chargebacks. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support. Likewise, the primary government is reported separately from certain legally separate component units for which the primary government is financially accountable. The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Indirect expense allocations are included as part of program expenses in the statement of activities. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter is 38 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenue in the year for which they are budgeted rather than the year they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they are "measurable and available"). "Measurable" means the amount of the transaction can be determined and "available" means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. The City considers all revenues available if they are collected within 60 days after year end except those described below. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for unmatured interest on general long-term debt which is recognized when due, and certain compensated absences and claims and judgments which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Property taxes, sales taxes, franchise taxes, other taxes, licenses, grants, interest and special assessments are susceptible to accrual. Other receipts and taxes become measurable and available when cash is received by the City and are recognized as revenue at that time. The City reports the following major governmental funds: The general fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The parks fund, a special revenue fund, accounts for revenue sources from the operations of Parks and Recreation and sales taxes specifically designated for Parks and Recreation that are legally restricted to expenditures for specific purposes including major capital projects. The capital improvement tax fund accounts for the acquisition of capital assets or construction of major capital projects not being financed by other funds. The public safety tax fund, a special revenue fund, accounts for revenue from a sales tax specifically designated for public safety that are legally restricted to expenditures for the benefit of public safety. This fund is presented as a major fund because the City believes it is particularly important to financial statement users. The City reports the following major proprietary funds: The wastewater fund accounts for the activities of the sewage treatment plant, sewage pumping and collection systems. The transit fund accounts for the operations of bus fixed route and handicap public transit. This fund is presented as a major fund because the City believes it is particularly important to financial statement users. Additionally, the City reports the following fund types: The internal service fund account for operations that provide self-insured worker’s compensation/risk management services and self-funded health insurance to all operating funds of the City. The fiduciary fund type, is a custodial fund, which is a clearing account for tax increment financing. As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned, which would be distorted if eliminated. 39 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes. However, taxes imposed by the State of Missouri and Cole County and distributed to the City, such as gasoline, motor vehicle increase, and road and bridge taxes are included in operating and capital grants and contributions on the government-wide statements. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the Wastewater, Airport, Parking, and Transit enterprise funds, and of the government’s internal service funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The Wastewater fund also recognizes as operating revenue the portion of sewer connection fees intended to recover the costs of connecting new customers to the system. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and the internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses. When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the government’s policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. D. Assets, Liabilities and Net Position or Equity Deposits and Investments The City’s cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, amounts invested in overnight repurchase agreements, mutual funds, and investments with a maturity date of 90 days or less. Cash resources of all city individual funds are combined to form a pool which is invested in overnight repurchase agreements which are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. State law and the City’s investment policy allow the Finance Director to invest in U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. Government Agency securities and instrumentalities of government sponsored corporations, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, demand deposit accounts (DDAs), negotiable order of withdrawal (NOW) accounts, Missouri local government investment pools and full faith and credit obligations of the United States, the state of Missouri or any Missouri local government unit. Such investments are stated at fair value. Fair values for investments for the City, as well as its component unit, are determined by closing market prices at fiscal year- end as reported by the custodian. Interest earned as a result of pooling is distributed to the appropriate funds based upon the month-end balances of cash and marketable securities of each fund. Contributions and Grants Grants are received from State, Federal, and Local sources and are classified as either capital grants to be used for the construction or acquisition of capital assets, or operating grants to be used at the discretion of the grantee for operating purposes. Contributions and grants received by all funds are accounted for as follows: Contributions and grants for both capital and operating purposes are included in revenues. Grant revenues are accrued as eligible expenditures or commitments are incurred, as appropriate for the fund type involved. Inventory and Prepaid Items Inventory is valued at cost using the first-in, first-out method. Inventories consist of vehicle parts and accessories for the transit system and City vehicles. The cost of such inventories is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items. The cost of such prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased. 40 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Restricted Assets Certain assets of the Wastewater enterprise fund are set aside and restricted by bond covenants as security for payment of debt service costs on outstanding bonds, for replacement reserves, for contingencies and for the periodic accumulation of funds to pay semi-annual bond interest and annual principal due during the next fiscal year. Likewise, assets of the Worker’s Compensation Risk Management Fund are set aside to comply with Missouri Statutes. Capital Assets Capital Assets, which include property, plant, equipment, lease assets, and infrastructure (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City Finance Director as assets with an estimated useful life in excess of one year with a threshold of $10,000. Capital assets for all fund types are recorded at cost or estimated historical cost where cost could not be determined from available records. Donated capital assets are recorded at their acquisition value at the date of donation. The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend the asset’s life are charged to operations as they occur and are not included in the capital assets. Restorations and betterments are capitalized over the remaining useful life of the related capital assets, as applicable. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized in proprietary funds as projects are constructed. Capital outlays for intangible assets are capitalized. Intangible assets include easements with an indefinite life which are therefore, not being amortized. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated using the straight line method over the following estimated useful lives: Buildings 10-50 years Improvements other than buildings 7-10 years Wastewater plant and system 40-50 years Machinery and equipment 5-20 years Furniture and fixtures 5-10 years Motor vehicles 5-15 years Infrastructure: Streets and stormwater drainage 35 years Sidewalks and trails 30 years Street lighting 30 years Traffic signals 20 years Lease assets are amortized over the lease term or the life of the asset, whichever is less. Compensated Absences It is the City’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits. All vacation pay and certain sick incentive pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. Long-term obligations In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are recognized as an expense in the period incurred. Deferred outflows/inflows of resources In addition to assets, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. Deferred outflows represent a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. 41 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. Deferred inflows represent an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. Unavailable revenues are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available. Unearned revenues arise when resources are received by the government before it has a legal claim to them. Fund Balances The City follows GASB 54 for its reporting of fund balances. GASB 54 provides for two major types of fund balances, which are nonspendable and spendable. Nonspendable fund balances are balances that cannot be spent because they are not expected to be converted to cash or they are legally or contractually required to remain intact. Examples of this classification are prepaid items, inventories, and principal (corpus) of an endowment fund. In addition to the nonspendable fund balance, GASB 54 has provided a hierarchy of spendable fund balances, based on a hierarchy of spending constraints. Restricted – amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes because of constitutional provisions, charter requirements or enabling legislation or because of constraints that are externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or the laws or regulations of other governments. Committed – amounts that can be used only for specific purposes determined by a formal action of the City Council. The City Council is the highest level of decision making authority for the City of Jefferson. Commitments may be established, modified, or rescinded only through ordinances or resolutions (which are equally binding) that are approved by the City Council. Assigned – amounts that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed but that are intended to be used for specific purposes. Under the City’s adopted policy, only the City Council may assign amounts for specific purposes. Unassigned – the residual classification for the government’s general fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other classifications. The general fund will be the only fund that reports a positive unassigned fund balance amount. In the other governmental funds, if expenditures exceed the amounts restricted, committed or assigned to those purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the City considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the City considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the City Council has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions. The City’s adopted Financial Policy Guidelines state that the City calculates an unassigned General fund balance at a minimum of 17% of expenditures as originally adopted for the General Fund budget. All other funds, if they are not subsidized by other funds, shall maintain a minimum 10% fund balance. Leases Lessee: At the commencement of the lease term, for arrangements where the City is the lessee, the City recognizes a lease liability and a right of use (ROU) intangible asset. ROU assets represent the City’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the City’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. The City recognizes lease liability with an individual present value of $50,000 or more. The City initially measures the lease liability at the present value of payment expected to be made during the lease term, and the lease payments reduce the principal portion of the lease liability. The lease asset is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus certain initial direct costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized on a straight-line basis over its useful life. For governmental statements, an expenditure and other financing sources will be reported in the period the lease is initially recognized. The expenditure and the other financing sources should be measured as noted in the previous paragraph. Subsequent governmental fund lease payments are accounted for consistent with principles of debt service payments on long-term debt. The City has not recognized ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases with non-cancellable periods of 12 months or less. 42 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Lessor: At the commencement of the lease term, for arrangements where the City is a lessor, the City recognizes a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources. The lease receivable is measured at the present value of lease payments expected to be received during the lease term. Deferred inflows of resources should be measured a the value of the lease receivable plus any payments received at or before the commencement of the lease term that relate to future periods. The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate is not provided by the lessor, the City uses an estimate of its incremental borrowing rate based on current market data as of the commencement of the lease. The City includes lease extension options in the lease term. The City recognizes lease receivable with an individual present value of $50,000 or more. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Effective November 1, 2022, the City adopted the provisions of GASB Statement No. 87, Leases. The objective of this Statement is to better meet the information needs of financial statement users by improving accounting and financial reporting for leases by governments. The statement requires recognition of certain lease assets and liabilities for leases that previously were classified as operating leases and recognized inflows of resources or outflows of resources based on the payment provisions of the contract. It establishes a single model for lease accounting based on the foundational principle that leases are financings of the right to use an underlying asset. A lessee is required to recognize a lease liability and an intangible right-to-use lease asset, and a lessor is required to recognize a lease receivable and a deferred inflow of resources. With the adoption of the new accounting pronouncement, prior capital leases are now presented as note payables. Effective November 1, 2022, the City adopted GASB Statement No. 92, Omnibus 2020. This statement establishes accounting and financial reporting requirements for specific issues related to leases, intra-entity transfers of assets, postemployment benefits, government acquisitions, risk financing and insurance-related activities of public entity risk pools, fair value measurements, and derivative instruments. This statement had no impact on the City’s financial statements. E. Subsequent Events The City evaluates events and transactions occurring subsequent to the date of the financial statements for matters requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. The accompanying financial statements consider events through June 5, 2023 which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued. NOTE 2: Reconciliation of Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements A. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental fund balance sheet and the government-wide statement of net position The governmental fund balance sheet includes reconciliation between fund balance-total governmental funds and net position- governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of net position. One element of that reconciliation explains that “Other long-term assets are not available to pay for current-period expenditures and therefore are unavailable revenue in the funds.” The details of the $6,870,253 difference are as follows: Property tax receivable/deferred inflow $ 238,159 Franchise tax receivable/unearned revenue 23,666 Grant receivable/unearned revenue 6,608,428 Net adjustment to increase fund balance-total governmental funds to arrive at net position-governmental activities $ 6,870,253 B. Explanation of certain differences between the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances and the government-wide statement of activities The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances includes reconciliation between net changes in fund balances-total governmental funds and changes in net position of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. One element of that reconciliation explains that “Governmental funds report capital outlays 43 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of these assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense.” The details of this $1,341,145 difference are as follows: Capital outlay $ 6,290,666 Depreciation expense (7,631,811) Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position of governmental activities $ (1,341,145) Another element of that reconciliation states that ‘The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to increase net position.” The details of the $205,505 difference are as follows: Capital outlay not capitalized (9,517) The loss on disposal of capital assets are not reported in the governmental funds $ (195,988) Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position of governmental activities $ (205,505) Another element of that reconciliation states that “Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.” The details of the $2,417,856 difference are as follows: Property tax revenue $ (54,627) Franchise/Utility tax revenue 666 Intergovernmental revenue 2,471,817 Net adjustment to decrease net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net position of governmental activities $ 2,417,856 NOTE 3: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The City’s investments by input levels as of October 31, 2022 are presented below. Investment US Treasury Note $ 176,704 $ 176,704 City's Investments 176,704 176,704 Total Investments $ 176,704 $ 176,704 Quoted Prices Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) 2022 Fair Value 44 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 NOTE 4: DEPOSITS & INVESTMENTS As of October 31, 2022, the City of Jefferson had the following investments and maturities: Type Maturities City of Jefferson Investments: Repurchase agreeements (cash & cash equivalents) Less than one year $ 46,616,182 Money Market Less than one year 739,734 US Treasury Note 5 years 176,704 Total City's Deposits/Investments $ 47,532,620 Total See note 1.D., Deposits and Investments, for a discussion of how shares are valued. A credit rating is not available. Interest rate risk. It is the policy of the City to invest public funds in a manner which will provide maximum security of capital, meet daily cash flow demands and earn a market rate of return on investment for like maturities and securities instruments; while conforming to all applicable statutes governing the investment of public funds. The City manages its exposure to declines in fair values by limiting the segmented time distribution of its investment portfolio to less than one year. Credit risk. State statutes authorize the City to invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, and federal agencies and instrumentalities; certificates of deposit issued by Missouri banks; and repurchase agreements. Concentration of credit risk. The City of Jefferson has no formal policy related to a specific deposit or investment risk. However, in accordance with the City of Jefferson investment policy, the investments will be diversified to minimize the risk of loss resulting from over concentration of assets in (1) a specific investment type, (2) a specific issuer or (3) a specific maturity. The following guidelines represent limits established for diversification by instrument: Type and Issuer minimum maximum U.S. Treasury Obligations 0% 100% U.S. Government Agency Securities and Instrumentalities of Government 0% 80% Certificates of Deposits (CD's)0% 50% Repurchase Agreements, Demand Deposit Accounts (DDAs), or Negotiable Order of Withdrawal (NOW) Accounts 0% 100% Full faith & credit obligations of the State or any Missouri local governmental entity 0% 25% Percent of Portfolio Custodial credit risk - deposits. In the case of deposits, this is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City of Jefferson’s deposits may not be returned to the City. All bank balances and certificates of deposit as of the balance sheet date are entirely insured or collateralized with securities held by the City or by its agent in the City's name. The City has no custodial credit risk policy for deposits. Discretely Presented Component Unit: Jefferson City Convention and Visitors Bureau (JCCVB), a discretely presented component unit, cash accounts are secured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) up to $250,000. JCCVB also maintains balances in overnight investment accounts which are not insured or guaranteed by FDIC or any government agency. They are, however, invested in government-backed securities. At December 31, 2021 amounts in the overnight investment account totaled $7,146,862. 45 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 NOTE 5: RECEIVABLES Taxes receivable represent amounts due for property taxes, gasoline tax, franchise tax and sales tax which have been reflected as revenues reduced by an appropriate allowance for uncollectible. Taxes receivable includes a receivable for property tax in the amount of $5,847,890 for property assessed as of January 1, 2022. However, the related revenue is deferred until after the fiscal year end since the taxes are budgeted and levied for the subsequent fiscal year. Therefore, $5,847,890 was recognized as deferred inflow of resources in the government wide statements. The receivable also includes the sales, motor vehicle and gasoline taxes charged by the retailers in October (point of sale). The third quarter taxes are due by October 31 of which the State of Missouri receives the majority in the first week of November. The October monthly filer’s tax is due by November 20 of which the State also receives the majority of it in November. Therefore, the State remits its November collections to the City in December. The tax receivable includes both November and December receipts from the State of Missouri, representing the taxes charged by retailers through October 31, 2022. A. Property Taxes The City's property tax is levied by the Counties of Cole and Callaway each October 1, based on the assessed value as of the previous January 1, for all real and personal property located in the City. Assessed values are established by the County Assessors. Property taxes are billed by November 1 following the levy date, due by December 31 and are considered delinquent on January 1. A lien is placed on the property as of March 1 if delinquent taxes are not paid. The assessed value for property located in the City as of January 1, 2021 upon which the Fiscal Year 2022 budget was based, amounted to $936,659,522. The City's property tax levies per $100 of assessed valuation for the year ended October 31, 2022 were as follows: Cole Callaway General Fund 0.4600$ 0.4600$ Firemen's Retirement $ 0.0961 0.0961$ Totals $ 0.5561 0.5561$ Levy (dollars) The City is permitted by the Missouri State Constitution to levy taxes up to $1.00 per $100 assessed valuation for general governmental services (General Fund) other than the payment of principal and interest on long-term debt and in unlimited amounts for the payment of principal and interest on long-term debt. There was no Debt Service levy for the year ended October 31, 2022. B.

The Wastewater bonds are payable solely from sanitary sewer net revenues and are payable through 2036. Annual principal and interest payments on the bonds have required on average between 80 and 90 percent of net revenues. The total principal and interest remaining to be paid on wastewater bonds is $43,059,849. Principal and interest paid for the current year and total net sanitary sewer revenues for the current year were $5,501,179 and $6,758,901, respectively. The payment of the principal and interest on the Series 2019 parks system special obligation bonds is subject to annual appropriations by the City Council. Pursuant to the Bond Ordinance, the City Council has directed the City Administrator, the Director of Finance or any other officer of the City at any time charged with the responsibility of formulating budget proposals to include in each annual budget appropriation of the amount necessary (after taking into account any moneys legally available for such purpose) to pay debt service on the Bonds. However, the City Council is not required or obligated to make any such annual appropriation and the decision whether or not to appropriate such funds will be solely within the discretion of the then current City Council. No property of the City is pledged or encumbered, and no reserve fund has been established, as security for payment of the Bonds. It is the current intention of the City to satisfy its obligations to make debt service payments on the Parks Bonds, subject to annual appropriation by the City Council, from revenues generated by the City’s 0.50% local parks sales tax.

Postretirement Benefits Other than Pensions (OPEB) General Information about the Pension Plan Plan Description and Benefits Provided The City sponsors a single-employer, defined benefit healthcare plan that provides healthcare benefits to retirees and their dependents. The City requires retirees to pay the same medical premium charged for active employees. Under the theory that retirees have higher utilization of services, the difference between the true cost of providing retiree coverage and what the retiree is being charged is known as the implicit rate subsidy, which is considered Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) under GASB Statement No. 45. No assets are accumulated in a trust that meets the criteria in paragraph 4 of Statement 75. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms At October 31, 2022, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms: Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 20 Inactive employees entitled but not yet receiving benefits - Active employees 403 423 Total OPEB Liability The employer’s total OPEB liability of $1,733,865 was measured as of October 31, 2022, and determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. Actuarial Assumptions The total OPEB liability was “rolled forward” from October 31, 2020 to October 31, 2022 using generally accepted actuarial principles. The total OPEB liability in the October 31, 2022 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions and other inputs, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified: Discount Rate 4.62% Inflation 2.75% wage inflation Salary Increase 2.75% to 7.15% including wage inflation Investment Rate of Return 4.00%, net of OPEB plan investment expense, including inflation Healthcare Trend Rates Initial trend of 7.00% gradually decreasing to an ultimate trend rate of 3.50% in year 15 Retirees’ Share of Benefit- Related Costs 100 percent of projected health insurance premiums for retirees 53 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 The discount rate of 4.62% was based on the tax-exempt municipal bond rate based on an index of 20-year general obligation bonds with an average AA credit rating as of the measurement date. For the purpose of this valuation, the rate was based on the weekly rate closest to but not later than the measurement date of the Fidelity “20-Year Municipal GO AA index”. The healthy retiree mortality tables, for post-retirement mortality, used in evaluating allowances to be paid were 115% of the PubG- 2010 Retiree Mortality Table for males and females. The disabled retiree mortality tables, for post-retirement mortality, used in evaluating the allowances to be paid were 115% of the PubNS-2010 Disabled Retiree Mortality Table for males and females. The pre- retirement mortality tables used were 75% of the PubG-2010 Employee Mortality Tables for males and females of General groups and 75% of the PubS-2010 Employee Mortality Table for males and females of Police, Fire, and Public Safety groups. Mortality rates for a particular calendar year are determined by applying the MP-2020 mortality improvement scale to the above described tables. Unless otherwise specified, the actuarial assumptions used in making the October 31, 2022 valuation were based on a 5-year investigation of Missouri Local Government Employees Retirement System (LAGERS) in total for the period ending February 28, 2020. Changes in Total OPEB Liability Total OPEB Liability Balances as of 10/31/21 2,093,511$ Changes for year: Service Cost 106,552 Interest 45,098 Changes of assumptions (412,840) Benefit payments, including refunds (98,456) Net changes (359,646) Balances as of 10/31/22 1,733,865$ Changes of assumptions reflect a change in the discount rate from 2.15 percent in 2021 to 4.62 percent in 2022.

NOTE 8: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES A. Risk Management The City of Jefferson, Missouri is exposed to risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City has purchased insurance up to $5 million for these risks from Midwest Public Risk (MPR), except for worker's compensation described below. There have been no settlements in excess of insured coverage during the past five years. In 2001, the City established a $50,000 self-insured retention with a $250,000 shared annual aggregate for liability coverage. In 2015, the City reduced the self-insured retention to $25,000 with no shared annual aggregate for liability coverage. The Midwest Public Risk Fund is structured such that member premiums are based on an actuarial review that will provide adequate reserves to allow the Fund to meet its expected financial obligations. The Fund has the authority to assess its members’ additional premiums should reserves and annual premiums be insufficient to meet the Fund’s obligations. Other commercial policies are purchased from various vendors for Property and Equipment, Excess Property, Boiler and Machinery, Commercial Crime, Excess Workers Compensation, and Airport Owners and Operators Liability. In the area of loss prevention and control, the City has contracted for services through a commercial insurance company and a professional broker. The City has also instituted internal safety and supervisory training programs designed to minimize risk exposure and claims. The claims liability of $0 reported at October 31, 2022 is based on the requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board 56 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Statement No. 10, which requires that a liability for claims be reported if information prior to the issuance of the financial statements indicates it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.

Litigation The City is a defendant in a number of claims and lawsuits resulting from personal injury, property damage, personnel actions, and police activity. The City Attorney has reviewed these claims and lawsuits in order to evaluate the likelihood of an unfavorable outcome to the City and to arrive at an estimate, if any, of the amount or range of potential loss to the City. The City Attorney has reviewed lawsuits involving various departments and allegations, which are currently pending. The chances of the plaintiff’s success in these cases vary. The amount of any recovery payable from City funds should be $315,000 or less. A number of other claims involving vehicles and property damage, and alleged dangerous conditions have been reviewed. Most have been resolved or are in the process of being resolved. While most are covered by insurance, some may have deductibles, self-insured retention, or other circumstances which involve payment from City funds. The total from all of the above claims of this nature should not cause payment from City funds of an amount greater than $45,000. No significant adverse impact beyond budgeted funds is anticipated from any of the pending claims or litigation. E. Commitments At October 31, 2022, the following funds have construction and other significant commitments: Primary Government Commitment General Fund $ 845,249 Parks Fund $ 437,959 Capital Projects $ 1,898,469 Transit Fund $ 111,068 Wastewater Fund $ 349,109 Non Major Funds $ 15,762 F. Grants and Other Under the terms of federal and state grants, periodic audits are required and certain costs may be questioned as not being appropriate expenditures under the terms of the grants. Such audits could lead to reimbursement to the grantor agencies. City management believes disallowances, if any, will be immaterial to its financial position and operations.

NOTE 10: EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEMS A. LAGERS Summary of Significant Accounting Policies For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Missouri Local Government Employees Retirement System (LAGERS) and additions to/deductions from LAGERS fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by LAGERS. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. General Information about the Pension Plan Plan Description The City of Jefferson’s defined benefit pension plan provides certain retirement, disability and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The City of Jefferson participates in the Missouri Local Government Employees Retirement System (LAGERS). LAGERS is an agent multiple-employer, statewide public employee pension plan established in 1967 and administered in accordance with RSMo. 70.600-70.755. As such, it is LAGERS responsibility to administer the law in accordance with the expressed intent of the General Assembly. The plan is qualified under the Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a) and is tax exempt. The responsibility for the operations and administration of LAGERS is vested in the LAGERS Board of Trustees consisting of seven persons. LAGERS issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information. This report may be obtained by accessing the LAGERS website at www.molagers.org. Benefits Provided LAGERS provides retirement, death and disability benefits. Benefit provisions are adopted by the governing body of the employer, within the options available in the state statutes governing LAGERS. All benefits vest after 5 years of credited service. Employees who retire on or after age 60 (55 for police and fire) with 5 or more years of service are entitled to an allowance for life based upon the benefit program information provided below. Employees may retire with an early retirement benefit with a minimum of 5 years of credited service and after attaining age 55 (50 for police and fire) and receive a reduced allowance. 59 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 2022 Valuation Benefit Multiplier: 2% - General & Police; 2.5% - Fire Final Average Salary: 3 years Member Contributions: 0% Benefit terms provide for annual post retirement adjustments to each member’s retirement allowance subsequent to the member’s retirement date. The annual adjustment is based on the increase in the Consumer Price Index and is limited to 4% per year. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms At June 30, 2022, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms: General Police Fire Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 215 57 79 Inactive employees entitled but not yet receiving benefits 94 41 5 Active employees 249 73 73 558 171 157 Contributions The employer is required to contribute amounts at least equal to the actuarially determined rate, as established by LAGERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the cost of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance an unfunded accrued liability. Full-time employees of the employer do not contribute to the pension plan. Employer contribution rates are 13.8% (General), 19.0% (Police) and 49.0% (Fire) of annual covered payroll. Net Pension Liability The employer’s net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2022 and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of February 28, 2022. Actuarial Assumptions The total pension liability in the February 28, 2022 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement: Inflation 2.75% wage inflation; 2.25% price inflation Salary Increase 2.75% to 7.15% including wage inflation Investment rate of return 7.00%, net of investment expenses The healthy retiree mortality tables, for post-retirement mortality, used in evaluating allowances to be paid were 115% of the PubG- 2010 Retiree Mortality Table for males and females. The disabled retiree mortality tables, for post-retirement mortality, used in evaluating allowances to be paid were 115% of the PubNS-2010 Disabled Retiree Mortality Table for males and females. The pre- retirement mortality tables used were 75% of the PubG-2010 Employee Mortality Table for males and females of General groups and 75% of the PubS-2010 Employee Mortality Tables for males and females of Police, Fire and Public Safety groups. Mortality rates for a particular calendar year are determined by applying the MP-2020 mortality improvement scale to the above described tables. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a model method in which the best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of investment expenses and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table: 60 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Asset Class Target Allocation Equity 35.00% Fixed Income 31.00% Real Assets 36.00% Strategic Assets 8.00% Alpha Portfolio** 15.00% Cash Portfolio* 10.00% Leverage Portfolio* -35.00% *LAGERS targets 30% of the leverage portfolio to be held in cash. **Alpha Portfolio allocation is based on a volatility adjusted exposure targeting 8% overall. Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability is 7.00%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumes that employer and employee contributions will be made at the rates agreed upon for employees and the actuarially determined rates for employers. Based on these assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to pay all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payment to determine the total pension liability.

NOTE 11: DEPARTMENT DISCLOSURES For the year ending October 31, 2022, there were no departments (the legal level of budgetary control) in the governmental funds where expenditures exceeded appropriations. NOTE 12: TAX ABATEMENT The City of Jefferson can grant tax abatements as outlined below: 62 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 Chapter 100 – Industrial Revenue Bonds: In Missouri, cities and counties ("Municipality") can issue industrial development revenue bonds ("Revenue Bonds") pursuant to Chapter 100 of the Missouri Revised Statutes ("RSMo"), as amended (the "Act"), in order to encourage industrial development projects for private companies. Under the Act, the Municipality may issue Revenue Bonds to finance the costs of the purchase, construction, extension and improvement of warehouses, distribution facilities, research and development facilities, office industries, agricultural processing industries, service facilities which provide interstate commerce, and industrial plants, including the real estate either within or without the limits of such Municipality, buildings, fixtures and machinery (the "Project"). There are two primary reasons to issue Revenue Bonds under the Act. First, if the Revenue Bonds are tax-exempt, it may be possible to issue the Revenue Bonds at lower interest rates than those obtained through conventional financing. Second, even if the Revenue Bonds are not tax-exempt, ad valorem taxes levied on the Revenue Bond financed Project may be abated so long as the Revenue Bonds are outstanding. In a typical Chapter 100 transaction, the Municipality holds fee title to the Project once the Revenue Bonds are issued and leases the Project to the private company. Because the Municipality is the legal owner of the Project while the Revenue Bonds are outstanding, the Project is exempt from ad valorem taxation and personal property taxation. The Municipality and the private company may determine that partial tax abatement - but not full tax abatement is desirable. In this case, the Municipality and the private company will enter into an agreement providing for the company to make "payments in lieu of taxes" to the Municipality and other taxing jurisdictions levying property taxes where the Project is located. The amount of payments in lieu of taxes to be paid by the private company is negotiable to any amount. The payments in lieu of taxes are payable by December 31 of each year and are distributed to the Municipality and to each taxing jurisdiction levying property taxes where the Project is located in the same manner and proportion as the property taxes would otherwise be distributed to such taxing jurisdictions under Missouri law. Section 100. 800 of the RS Mo does provide for the recapture of abated taxes in the event an abatement recipient does not fulfill the commitment it makes in return for the tax abatement. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the City abated property taxes totaling $40,845 under these Chapter 100 financing agreements. Tax Increment Financing: Pursuant to the Real Property Tax Increment Allocation Act, Sections 99.800 through 99.865, RSMo, as amended (the "TIF Act"), cities and counties ("Municipality") may adopt a redevelopment plan ("TIF plan") that provides for the redevelopment of a "blighted area", "conservation area" or "economic development area," located within the boundaries of the Municipality. The theory of TIF financing is that, by encouraging redevelopment projects, the value of real property in a redevelopment area should increase. When the TIF plan is adopted, the assessed valuation of the real property in the redevelopment area is frozen at the current base level prior to construction of improvements. The owner of the property continues to pay property taxes at the base level and such property tax revenues are distributed to the taxing jurisdictions levying property taxes in the redevelopment area. As the property is improved, the assessed value of the real property in the redevelopment area increases above the base level. By applying the property tax levy of all taxing jurisdiction having taxing power within the redevelopment area to the increase in assessed valuation of the improved real property over the base level, a "tax increment" is produced. The tax increments, referred to as "payments in lieu of taxes," are paid by the owner of the real property in the same manner as regular property taxes. The payments in lieu of taxes are transferred by the collecting agency to the treasurer of the Municipality and deposited in a special allocation fund. In addition to the payments in lieu of taxes described above, and pursuant to Section 99.845(3) of the Act, fifty percent of the total additional revenue from taxes which are imposed by the City, the County or other taxing districts, and which are generated by economic activities within the redevelopment area over the amount of such taxes generated by economic activities within the redevelopment prior to the TIF plan, are transferred by the collecting agency to the treasurer of the Municipality and deposited in a special allocation fund. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the City abated property taxes and economic activity taxes totaling $117,616 under these Tax Increment Financing agreements. Chapter 353 – Redevelopment Corporations: Under Chapter 353, RSMo, real property tax abatement is available within “blighted areas.” An Urban Redevelopment Corporation is created under the corporations laws of Missouri and, once created, it has the power to operate one or more redevelopment projects pursuant to a city-approved redevelopment plan. With this program, an eligible city may approve a redevelopment plan that provides for tax abatement for up to 25 years, thus encouraging the redevelopment of the blighted area. To be eligible for the abatement, the Urban Redevelopment Corporation must 63 City of Jefferson, Missouri Notes to Financial Statements October 31, 2022 take title to the property to be redeveloped. During the first 10 years of tax abatement, (1) 100% of the incremental increase in real property taxes on the land are abated, (2) 100% of the real property taxes on all improvements are abated, and (3) the property owner continues to pay real property taxes on the land in the amount of such taxes in the year before the redevelopment corporations takes title. During the next 15 years, taxes upon such real property shall be measured by the assessed valuation thereof as determined by the county assessor upon the basis of not to exceed fifty percent of the true value of such real property, including any improvements. Payments in lieu of taxes (PILOTS) may be imposed on the Urban Redevelopment Corporation by contract with the city, as applicable, to achieve an effective tax abatement that is less than the abatement established by statute. PILOTS are paid on an annual basis and allocated to each taxing district according to their proportionate share of ad valorem property taxes For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2022, the City abated property taxes totaling $4,030 under these Chapter 353 financing agreements. The following tax abatement agreements each exceeded 10 percent of the City’s total taxes abated for fiscal year 2022:  A 100 percent property tax abatement and 50% economic activity tax abatement to the St. Mary’s TIF. In August 2017, the City approved the tax increment plan for the St. Mary’s Redevelopment Area. The abatements amounted to $91,821. NOTE 13: FUTURE ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS GASB Statement No. 91, Conduit Debt Obligations. The objective of this Statement is to provide a single method of reporting conduit debt obligations by issuers and eliminate diversity in practice associated with (1) commitments extended by issuers, (2) arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations, and (3) related note disclosures. This statement achieves those objectives by clarifying the existing definition of a conduit debt obligation; establishing that a conduit debt obligation is not a liability of the issuer; establishing standards for accounting and financial reporting of additional commitments and voluntary commitments extended by issuers and arrangements associated with conduit debt obligations; and improving required disclosures. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 31, 2022. 64 REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION (RSI) 65 Fiscal year ending June 30,2022 2021 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 2015Total Pension LiabilityService Cost 2,928,291$ 3,041,751$ 2,987,138$ 2,867,447$ 2,720,530$ 2,593,354$ 2,568,487$ 2,532,035$ Interest on the Total Pension Liability 11,087,188 11,660,763 10,977,905 10,366,008 8,939,085 8,591,220 7,967,490 7,661,827 Changes of Benefit Terms - - - - 14,534,542 - - - Difference between expected and actual experience (667,047) (6,467,285) 3,069,678 2,157,242 138,893 (867,154) (1,608,734) (1,694,178) Assumption Changes - (2,669,600) - - - - 4,236,574 - Benefit Payments (7,771,861) (8,138,083) (7,164,583) (6,859,851) (6,591,847) (4,606,460) (4,540,383) (4,070,926) Net Change in Total Pension Liability5,576,571 (2,572,454) 9,870,138 8,530,846 19,741,203 5,710,960 8,623,434 4,428,758 Total Pension Liability beginning160,769,234 163,341,688 153,471,550 144,940,704 125,199,501 119,488,541 110,865,107 106,436,349 Total Pension Liability ending166,345,805$ 160,769,234$ 163,341,688$ 153,471,550$ 144,940,704$ 125,199,501$ 119,488,541$ 110,865,107$ Plan Fiduciary Net PositionContributions-employer 4,609,400$ 4,392,191$ 4,321,101$ 4,346,691$ 4,836,810$ 4,188,777$ 4,151,922$ 4,368,344$ Contributions-legacy plan** - - - - 14,837,956 - - - Contributions-employee- - - - - 80,841 46,880 - Pension Plan Net Investment income137,513 40,085,007 1,928,351 9,046,050 15,419,234 12,130,427 (187,832) 1,902,415 Benefit Payments(7,771,861) (8,138,083) (7,164,583) (6,859,851) (6,591,847) (4,606,460) (4,540,383) (4,070,926) Pension Plan Administrative expense(94,801) (87,723) (115,087) (101,301) (70,768) (63,974) (60,825) (65,895) Other(2,219,736) 180,476 1,152,063 1,473,148 (943,532) 466,678 520,922 (328,829) Net Change in Plan Fiduciary Net Position(5,339,485) 36,431,868 121,845 7,904,737 27,487,853 12,196,289 (69,316) 1,805,109 Plan Fiduciary Net Position beginning183,765,810 147,333,942 147,212,097 139,307,360 111,819,507 99,623,218 99,692,534 97,887,425 Plan Fiduciary Net Position ending178,426,325$ 183,765,810$ 147,333,942$ 147,212,097$ 139,307,360$ 111,819,507$ 99,623,218$ 99,692,534$ Employer Net Pension Liability(12,080,520)$ (22,996,576)$ 16,007,746$ 6,259,453$ 5,633,344$ 13,379,994$ 19,865,323$ 11,172,573$ Plan Fiduciary Net Position as a percentage of the Total Pension Liability107.26% 114.30% 90.20% 95.92% 96.11% 89.31% 83.37% 89.92%Covered Payroll 21,226,111 21,022,492 22,326,544 21,201,296 20,525,788 19,360,321 18,743,450 18,925,302 Employer's Net Pension Liability as a percentageof covered payroll-56.91% -109.39% 71.70% 29.52% 27.45% 69.11% 105.99% 59.04%*Information for prior years is not available; ultimately ten fiscal years will be displayed.Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability and Related RatiosFor the Last Eight Fiscal Years***The City previously administered a closed Firemen's Pension Fund Plan.

The process begins at the department level in March and ends with adoption on or before October 31 of each year. The Mayor's proposed budget can only be adopted by majority action of the Council which must hold at least one public hearing prior to enactment. Controls are maintained to ensure compliance with the annual adopted budget which, in turn, must comply with state constitutional and statutory limits on tax levies. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental level and supplemental appropriations require Council approval. Budgets are prepared on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles and are adopted for all revenues and expenditures/expenses of all funds. Project budgets are adopted for the Capital Improvement Tax funds and for capital projects. Capital project budgets also include the continuing appropriations which represent the remaining balance carried forward from the prior year. Except for the capital project or grant budgets, any remaining unencumbered appropriations lapse at the fiscal year end. Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of funds are recorded in order to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is utilized in the governmental fund types. Encumbrances are carried forward as reservations of fund balance and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities because the commitments will be honored during the next year. Excess of expenditures over appropriations For the year ended October 31, 2022 there were no departments (the legal level of budgetary control) in the governmental funds where expenditures exceeded appropriations. 71 SUPPLEMENTAL FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SCHEDULES The supplemental financial presentation contains data beyond what is included in the government and proprietary financial statements for nonmajor funds.

Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Jefferson, Missouri’s internal control. 93 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 functions, 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 possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or, significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as item 2022-001 that we consider to be a significant deficiency. Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Jefferson, Missouri’s financial statements are free from 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 financial statements. 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 or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. City of Jefferson, Missouri’s Response to Finding City of Jefferson, Missouri’s response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. City of Jefferson, Missouri’s response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response. 94 Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. EVERS & COMPANY, CPA’s, L.L.C. Jefferson City, Missouri June 5, 2023 95 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Jefferson, Missouri Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program Opinion on Each Major Federal Program We have audited City of Jefferson, Missouri’s compliance with the types of compliance requirements identified as subject to audit in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of City of Jefferson, Missouri’s major federal programs for the year ended October 31, 2022. City of Jefferson, Missouri’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of Auditors’ results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. In our opinion, City of Jefferson, Missouri complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended October 31, 2022. Basis for Opinion on Each Major Federal Program We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Our responsibilities under those standards and the Uniform Guidance are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section of our report. 96 We are required to be independent of City of Jefferson, Missouri and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of City of Jefferson, Missouri’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above. Responsibilities of Management for Compliance Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements referred to above and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of effective internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws, statutes, regulations, rules, and provisions of contracts or grant agreements applicable to City of Jefferson, Missouri’s federal programs. Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether material noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above occurred, whether due to fraud or error, and express an opinion on City of Jefferson, Missouri’s compliance based on our audit. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance will always detect material noncompliance when it exists. The risk of not detecting material noncompliance resulting from fraud is higher than for that resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control. Noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above is considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, it would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user of the report on compliance about City of Jefferson, Missouri’s compliance with the requirements of each major federal program as a whole. In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, Government Auditing Standards, and the Uniform Guidance, we:  Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.  Identify and assess the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding City of Jefferson, Missouri’s compliance with the compliance requirements referred to above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. 97  Obtain an understanding of City of Jefferson, Missouri’s internal control over compliance relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Jefferson, Missouri’s internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in internal control over compliance that we identified during the audit. Report on Internal Control over Compliance A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of Compliance section above and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in internal control over compliance may exist that were not identified. Our audit was not designed for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. 98 The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose. EVERS & COMPANY, CPA’s, L.L.C.
