ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization - The Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District was formed in 1972 to acquire and preserve land and open space in the northern and western portions of Santa Clara County. In June 1976, the southern portion of San Mateo County was annexed to the District. Basis of accounting - The records of the District are maintained on the modified accrual method of accounting. Under this method, revenues are generally recognized in the period they become available and measurable, and expenditures are recognized generally when the obligation is incurred except for interest on long-term debt which is recognized as an expenditure when paid. General fixed assets - General fixed assets purchased are stated at cost in the fixed asset group of accounts. General fixed assets donated to the District are stated at their estimated fair market value as of the date received. Depreciation is not recorded for general fixed assets. General long-term debt - The principal portion of long-term debt is recorded as a liability in the general long term debt account group. 2. CHANGE IN FUND GROUPING In the prior year land acquisition and debt service transactions were reported in the District's property acquisition and debt service funds, respectively. The accompanying financial statements for the year ended June 30, 1979 reflect these transactions which are financed from general fund revenues in the District's general fund. This change in fund groupings increased the general fund balance at June 30, 1978 by $2,418,392 which was the cumulative balance of the property acquisition and debt service funds. - 4 3.
