Title: Contingencies
Accounting Policies: The modified accrual basis of accounting is used for the Governmental Fund types. This basis of accounting recognizes revenues in the accounting period in which they become susceptible to accrual, i.e., both measurable and available, and expenditures in the accounting period in which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable.
De Minimis Rate Used: N
Rate Explanation: N/A
The City participates in numerous federal and state programs, on both a direct and state pass-through basis, as well as on a service-provider basis. Principal among these are Community Development Block Grants, Section 8 Housing Assistance, the Home Investment Partnership Agreement Program, and the Airport Improvement Grant.
In connection with these programs, the City is required to comply with specific terms and agreements as well as applicable federal and state laws and regulations. Such compliance is subject to review and audit by the grantors and their representatives.
Since such programs are subject to audit or review, the possibility of disallowed expenditures exists. In the event of any disallowance of claimed expenditures, the City expects the resulting liability to be immaterial
