CALL TO ORDER Chairman Espinoza called to order a regular meeting of the Palm Desert Investment & Finance Committee at 10:32 a.m. II. ROLL CALL Present: Absent: Luis Espinoza, Acting Chairman Paul Gibson, City Treasurer Buford Crites, Mayor Thomas Wormley, Member Jim Ferguson, Mayor Pro-Tempore Carlos Ortega, City Manager Justin McCarthy, ACM/Redevelopment Thomas Jeffrey, Deputy City Treasurer David Erwin, City Attorney Russ Campbell, Member Bill Veazie, Member Everett Wood, Member Also Present: Dennis Coleman, RDA/Housing Finance Manager Anthony Hernandez, Senior Financial Analyst Niamh Ortega, Recording Secretary III. ORAL COMMUNICATIONS None. IV. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A. MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF JANUARY 26, 2005 Mr. Espinoza noted that the names of the Mayor and Mayor Pro-Tempore would be changed on the attendance record to reflect the recent change of INVESTMENT & FINANCE COMMITTEE MINUTES FEBRUARY 23, 2005 office, appointing former Mayor Pro-Tempore Crites to the position of Mayor and Councilman Ferguson to that of Mayor Pro-Tempore. MOTION was made by Mr. Campbell and seconded by Mr. Veazie to approve the Minutes of the January 26, 2005 meeting as corrected. Motion passed. V. NEW BUSINESS A. CITY AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY INVESTMENT SCHEDULES AND SUMMARY OF CASH REPORTS FOR JANUARY 2005 Mr. Jeffrey discussed the investment reports for January 2005. For the month ended January 31, 2005, the book value of the City Portfolio was approximately $140.2 million. Interest earnings were approximately $243,000. Yield-to-maturity was approximately 2.54%. For the month ended January 31, 2005, the book value of the RDA Portfolio was approximately $160.6 million. Interest earnings were approximately $268,000. Yield-to-maturity was approximately 2.23%. Mr. Veazie asked about the City's $12 million investment in Ford Motor Credit Corporation bonds that were rated A3/BBB-. Mr. Jeffrey replied that the City had a short-term position in Ford, with the bonds maturing in slightly over two years. The credit rating agencies had indicated that they thought it unlikely that Ford bonds would be rated below investment grade. Staff was comfortable with these short-term investments since Ford had excellent liquidity and a good balance sheet. Even with the Ford investments, the City was only able to achieve a 5.75% return for the Retiree Health Program, when the actuarial target was 6.50%. Mayor Pro-Tempore Ferguson asked how the City would bridge the gap between funded and unfunded liabilities for Retiree Health. Mr. Espinoza replied that the City was transferring more money from the General Fund into a restricted fund for Retiree Health than was actually required. Mr. Espinoza added that the City's financial statements included a note that disclosed the gap. Mr. Ferguson requested that the Committee receive, at its next meeting, an analysis of the unfunded liability, the effectiveness of the Ford investments in hitting the target, and the amount of City contributions. Mr. Espinoza replied that this would be done. Mayor Pro-Tempore Ferguson asked if there is a new assessment of the bonding capacity for each project area since they have been extended in the last few years. Mr. Coleman responded that the new dates to receive 2 W.IMinuteslMinutes 022305.doc INVESTMENT & FINANCE COMMITTEE MINUTES FEBRUARY 23, 2005 increment are 2026 for Project Area 1 (original), 2032 for Project Area 1 (annexed), 2038 for Project Area 2, 2039 for Project Area 3, and 2043 for Project Area 4. The tax increment cap will not be reached in Project Areas 1 (original), 2 and 3. It may be reached in Project Areas 1 (annexed) and 4. The bonding capacity is around $55 million to $62 million, taking ERAF into consideration. Over the next two years, the ERAF payment is approximately $3.9 million. MOTION to accept the report and recommend that it be received and filed by the City Council made by Member Wood, seconded by Member Ortega, and unanimously approved. B. LOCAL AGENCY INVESTMENT FUND (L.A.I.F.) ACCOUNT STATEMENTS FOR JANUARY 2005 The reports were reviewed and placed on file. C. CALIFORNIA ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM (C.A.M.P.) ACCOUNT STATEMENTS FOR JANUARY 2005 The reports were reviewed and placed on file. D. CITY AND REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY FINANCIAL REPORTS FOR JANUARY 2005 The City's report was reviewed and placed on file. Mr. Coleman announced that the Redevelopment Agency's reports were distributed for November and December 2004, as well as January 2005. The reports were reviewed and placed on file. E. PARKVIEW PROFESSIONAL OFFICE BUILDINGS FINANCIAL REPORT FOR JANUARY 2005 The report was reviewed and placed on file. F. PALM DESERT GOLF COURSE FACILITIES CORPORATION FINANCIAL REPORT FOR JANUARY 2005 Mr. Espinoza reported that Mr. Young was out of state and would be able to answer any questions at the next regular meeting. Mr. Ortega reported that at the end of January, in spite of a few rainy days, the course was performing better than budgeted.

H. INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT — CASH AND INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES REVIEW Mr. Espinoza reported that there were no significant findings by the accountants, and will be reviewed again in three years. VI. CONTINUED BUSINESS A. UPDATE ON INVESTMENT SUBCOMMITTEE MEETING Mr. Coleman reported that the subcommittee met to discuss the Request for Qualifications (RFQ) draft for underwriting services. Once the changes are made, the RFQ will be distributed. A list of those receiving the RFQ was distributed to the Committee. The next meeting date has not yet been determined. VII. OLD BUSINESS A. PUBLIC AND PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP BACKGROUND CHECKS No report. B. PALM DESERT FINANCING AUTHORITY BOND ISSUANCE Mr. Coleman reported that staff was directed by Council to research the possibility of recovering funds for staff time expended on bond issues. He requested that the Committee approve staff to enter into discussions with the City Attorneys to explore this opportunity. Member Wood questioned if the City is the only source for developers to recover these fees. Member Ortega indicated that the developer would typically have to pay for conditions placed on a development in cash, but the City of Palm Desert allows them to form an assessment district to do this. The purpose would be to obtain a legal opinion that designates how much the City could impose. MOTION to approve discussions between staff and the City Attorneys to explore recovery of funds for staff time spent on bond issues made by Member Wood, seconded by Member Campbell, unanimously approved. 4 W.WinuteslMinutes 022305.doc INVESTMENT & FINANCE COMMITTEE MINUTES FEBRUARY 23, 2005 VIII. ADJOURNMENT Mr. Espinoza adjourned the meeting at 11:15 a.m. Niamh Ortega, Recording Secretary 5 WAMinutesWinutes 022305.doc City of Palm Desert City and Redevelopment Agency Portfolios COMPLIANCE ANALYSIS AND INVESTMENT REPORT February 2005 Paul S. Gibson, C.C.M.T., Treasurer Thomas W. Jeffrey, J.D., M.B.A., Deputy City Treasurer Treasurer's Commentary The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC)will next meet on March 22nd. Another 25 basis-point increase in the Federal Funds Rate, from 2.50% to 2.75%, is a certainty. The latest estimate is that the Federal Funds Rate will be at 4.00% by year-end. The FOMC is concerned about inflation prospects in 2006, as well as cheap money fueling bubbles in housing and other assets. Productivity growth is also slowing. A combination of a large trade deficit, high oil prices, and a strong economic expansion have increased the market's inflation expections, pushing up U.S. Treasury yields sharply. Consequently, the FOMC wants to cultivate an image as a strong inflation fighter, in order to reassure the financial markets. The rising price of oil may slow the FOMC's "rapid fire" rate hikes sometime this year. Oil price shocks, however, do not have the dramatic impact on the business cycle that they once did. The Federal Reserve has found that a one-time energy shock does not have a major impact on core inflation. As a recent Federal Reserve paper noted, oil prices rising relative to other prices is not inflation. Inflation, by definition, is when all prices rise in general, due to monetary policy and the general economy. Inflation prospects depend more on how the FOMC manages monetary policy relative to the economic expansion. Higher interest rates and oil prices will slow economic growth in 2005. Gross Domestic Product (GDP)will probably be near 3.75%for the year. Long-term bond yields will continue to rise as Asian countries buy fewer Treasuries. PaabS.

The City Treasurer's"Statement of Investment Policy"is more restrictive than the California Government Code. The Palm Desert Investment Committee and the Palm Desert City Council review the Statement of Investment Policy annually. For the month ended 28 February 2005,the City and the RDA investment portfolios were in compliance with all applicable federal, state,and local laws and regulations. The City Treasury continued to pursue conservative and prudent investment strategies, based upon the stated objectives of safety, liquidity, and yield (in order of priority). Barring unforeseen events,the City Treasury should have sufficient cash to finance the operations of the City of Palm Desert and the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency over the next six months. In addition, portions of either the City or the RDA portfolio could be liquidated in order to meet any significant, unexpected cash requirements. Bloomberg L.P. and Interactive Data Corporation provided the data and the analytical tools that were used to calculate the market value of all securities in the City and the RDA investment portfolios. State and Local Government Series securities are held in escrow accounts and are therefore not included in this report as assets. All balances are bank balances.

Gibson, C.C.M.T., Finance Director and City Treasurer Date: March 18, 2005 Subject: Analysis of Retiree Health Financing The City of Palm Desert ("City") completely funds and administers its Retiree Health Program. This program is independent of the City's CALPERS program (employee retirement plan). The City's Retiree Health liabilities consist of "Past Service Liability" (retired employees who are currently receiving payments) and "Future Service Liability" (current employees who will retire in the future and receive payments). The City must comply with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Pronouncements Nos. 43 and 45, which require that "Other Post-Employment Benefits," other than pension plans, assets, and liabilities, be accrued and expensed. Accordingly, the City hired an actuary to do a study that was completed on July 1, 2002. The study projected an unfunded Past Service Liability of$4,006,049 for the City. The actuary suggested that the City could fund this deficit by annually contributing $851,7991 to the Retiree Health Fund (Fund 576), over 20 years, in order to pay for both Past and Future Service Liability. The City subsequently chose to: (1) fully fund the Past Service Liability as of July 1, 2002; and (2) make a smaller annual contribution to the Retiree Health Fund. By fully funding the Past Service Liability, the City reduced its required annual contribution from $851,799 to $651,497. The City plans to contribute $939,000 ($543,000 contribution plus $396,000 of interest earnings) for Fiscal Year 2005, however, in order to fund a Future Service Liability deficit. t The annual contribution is comprised of the following;a)Present Value of benefits accruing in current year- $381,127,b)Twenty(20)year amortization of the unfunded past service liability-$200,302,c)Interest earnings on the unfunded service liability-$270,370.00 C9Documents and Settings�,obsont aaal Settings%Tern mry Intemet Ri"s OLKI INETIREE HEALTH ANALYSIS.doc 1- The actuarial study concluded that Retiree Health Program assets would need an annual yield of 6.50% in order to fund Past and Future Service Liability. In view of this target and historically depressed market yields, Staff requested the City Council's permission to buy Ford Motor Credit Corporation (a profitable finance affiliate of Ford Motor Company) bonds with a higher-than-market yield, for the Retiree Health Program. The City Council authorized this purchase at the May 8, 2003 Council meeting. The Ford bonds have a yield-to-maturity of 5.75%. Based upon the Ford bonds' current earnings, the City's Retiree Health Program is projected to have a $2,235,829 surplus, in terms of funding Past Service Liability (see Table 1). In contrast, the Program is projected to have a $1,487,446 deficit, in terms of funding Future Service Liability (see Table 2). The City will need to fund this deficit over the next 20 years. Staff is required to have another actuarial study done by October 2005.

A n i n\ City of Palm Desert Revision No. 3 Treasury Policies and Procedures Adopted: 2/10/05 • POLICY NO.: 6 SUBJECT: "CUSTODY AND SAFEKEEPING" POLICY The purpose of this document is to outline the policy and procedure on the custody and safekeeping of securities. It is the policy of the: ➢ City of Palm Desert; ➢ Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency; ➢ Palm Desert Housing Authority; ➢ Palm Desert Financing Authority; and the ➢ City of Palm Desert Golf Course Facilities Corporation • (hereafter referred to collectively as the "City") that the City shall retain third- party bank trust companies as clearinghouses for the payment, delivery, receipt, and safekeeping of securities that the City buys or sells. 1 .0 Selection of Custodian and of Trustee A third-party bank trust company shall serve as the City's custodian ("Custodian") for the purpose of settling all of the City's securities transactions that do not involve the investment of the gross proceeds of tax-exempt bonds. A third-party bank trust company shall serve as the City's trustee ("Trustee") for the purpose of settling all of the City's securities transactions that involve the investment of the gross proceeds of tax- exempt bonds. The City shall select both the Custodian and the Trustee through a Request for Proposals ("UP") process. The City may initiate an RFP process every five years, unless there is an immediate need to fill a vacancy or to replace a trust company. • 1 of 7 Palm Desert Treasury Policies and Procedures Revision No. 3 No. 6: "Custody and Safekeeping" Adopted: 2110/05 • The City shall subsequently execute separate custody agreements with the selected Custodian and the selected Trustee in order to confirm all legal rights and obligations. The City shall only use safekeeping or custodial agents that are located within the State of California. 2.0 Qualifications of Custodian and of Trustee The Custodian and the Trustee shall, at a minimum, possess the following qualifications: 2.1 Safekeeping. The ability to clear and safekeep all securities that are authorized by California Government Code Section 53601 . 2.2 Fiduciary Duty.

Both the Custodian and the Trustee shall disburse City monies or deliver City-owned securities to an approved broker only after that broker has delivered to the Custodian or to the Trustee either the securities to be sold or the money to purchase the securities. Both the Custodian and the Trustee shall only process a security transaction after they have received a Bloomberg Trade Ticket from the City which either the City Treasurer or the Assistant Finance Director has signed.

Preparatory Work Prior to Interest Allocation. Prior to allocating interest earnings, either the City Treasurer or the Assistant Finance Director • should take the following steps: 1) Accrual Worksheet. Prepare an Excel worksheet which calculates the amount of interest income that was earned in the prior fiscal period but received in the target fiscal period. Since debt securities with interest coupons typically pay interest every six months, interest received up to 31 December might include some accrued interest. 2) Calculation of Accrued Interest Earnings. Review the "Interest Earnings Report" in order to determine what portion of interest earnings that were received in the target fiscal period should be allocated as accrued interest from the prior fiscal period. Then prepare and post all accrued interest to the general ledgers of the edited City and RDA Pooled Fund Portfolios. 3) Calculation of Total Interest Earnings. Then add this accrued interest to interest received during the target fiscal period, in order to calculate the amount of total interest earnings that will be allocated to all accounting funds in the edited City and RDA Pooled Fund Portfolios. • 7 of 10 Palm Desert Treasury Policies and Procedures Revision No. 3 No. 15: "Interest Allocation" Adopted: 2/10/05 • 4) Final Allocation Activity Report.

The largest capital projects expenditures that went out is in Project Area 4 and that has to do with the reimbursement to Indian Wells for the Warner Trail Storm Drain. The third box at the bottom shows basically the year-to-date receipts and expenditures and as we mentioned before, basically, we get a major portion of our income in terms of tax increment in January. The next big chunk comes in May. We will have some supplemental income flowing in between now and then and will be reflected on the sheets as they're updated. So as you can see basically our largest expenditures are transfers out and debt service as well as capital. We do have a debt service payment coming up for April 1st, we have about 8.9 million going out, and it's primarily our Project Area 1, Project Area 4, and I believe some Housing payments that are going out. Thomas will be wiring debt service payments to the trustee on about the 27'h of the month. It will be reflected in the transfers out. So if you guys have any questions ... ORTEGA: Dennis, when I look at the uh, tax increment, that's the first half tax increment? COLEMAN: Correct, first half with the first payment with the State Board equals a utility. ORTEGA: The other income, the biggest chunk is Housing Authority. COLEMAN: Correct. ORTEGA: Is that an internal transfer or is that additional money that came to the Housing Authority, or is that operational? COLEMAN: It's operational. It's the rents. ORTEGA: Okay. Okay. GIBSON: Any other questions? COLEMAN: The Housing itself, can I point something out? Carlos, the Housing itself is the transfer of housing revenue, the low-mod set-asides, but the Housing Authority 2.7 is the rents. When you get the transfers in for Housing ... Investment & Finance Committee Verbatim Minutes — March 23, 2005 Page 2 of 6 ORTEGA: No, no. I understand. I thought maybe you'd moved the 29 plus maybe you had taken the 20 or 21%, I understand. COLEMAN: Okay. VEAZIE: It's not a question, but either I'm getting older or the printing is getting smaller. GIBSON: We will attempt to have Dennis rotate it around so that we can make it larger. COLEMAN: I will let Veronica know, who prepares this diligently. We've been concentrating on making sure the numbers are right, but ... CAMPBELL: Tell her you've got some old guys here. COLEMAN: We will attempt to accommodate. ORTEGA: It's just like what the banks do. They give you this teaser rate, and there's a whole lot of other stuff you can't read. (Laughter) COLEMAN: We'll try. If we have to do separate sheets, we'll do that. But we'll figure out some way to get this so that you don't have to do this (squinting). But you won't have questions if it's that tiny, though. GIBSON: Any other questions? Yes. WORMLEY: Does anybody know the price of crude oil three years ago? Other than myself? MCCARTHY:24 bucks a gallon? WORMLEY: How about 18. MCCARTHY:Wow. ORTEGA: Not a gallon. No, a barrel. McCARTHY: Oh, a barrel. Three years from now. WORMLEY: Does anybody know the high? McCARTHY: 58? WORMLEY: 57. Does anybody know what it was yesterday? Investment & Finance Committee Verbatim Minutes — March 23, 2005 Page 3 of 6 McCARTHY: 56? WORMLEY: 54. McCARTHY: Okay. WORMLEY: Gas prices. Rip-off. Never been a shortage, never will be. Buy gold. Does anybody know what gold went to? $852 an ounce. I was there. rode it up, I rode it down. ORTEGA: And you lived to tell about it? WORMLEY: I hedged, and I made money. McCARTHY: Okay, so you were short on the down. Okay. WORMLEY: I was short. If I were playing the market today, 1 would short crude oil. Interest rates are going higher. Interest rates control the market without a doubt. Gas prices have to go lower, or we gotta move out of California. (chuckles) WORMLEY: It's a rip-off. Do you know what my son paid in Monterey six months ago? Three dollars and seventy cents a gallon. Think of it. In other words, buy gold. ORTEGA: I make a motion that we take that 40 million dollars and ... (laughter) McCARTHY: Okay, we don't want to buy gold directly, but let's buy about a hundred contracts, and ... (Talking, inaudible) GIBSON: Next item of new business, if there are no other questions regarding the RDA? Seeing none, Parkview ... (Meeting continues) COLEMAN: ... We changed the criteria in terms of the ranking, terms of certain percentages, taking a look at it. We also did add one other line, because one of the things we did ask to disclose whether or not there was any wrongdoing by any of the employees or partners, and basically, we did add a line to deal with whether or not they had been sued by a client, and the outcome of such litigations. But a lot of this was pretty cosmetic in Investment & Finance Committee Verbatim Minutes — March 23, 2005 Page 4 of 6 terms of the changes we made, mostly changing the word "underwriters" and taking out "proposals" since we are doing a request for qualifications. If the Subcommittee reviews this and they feel that it is consistent with what we said, and that's the subcommittee that the full committee recommended me, if they're okay with this, then we'll get this out. I set up three weeks into April, but I might just push it to the end of April to get back. Probably April 29th from the 22nd, and we'll then sit down and go through all these proposals, and rank them, and try to come up with a group for the full committee to perhaps have oral interviews with. And I'm not sure, but we may want to have even, I don't know if you just want to clear the decks when this comes up for the full Finance and Investment on top of the meeting or separate meeting or what. GIBSON: As far as the interviews go? COLEMAN: Yeah, the orals. GIBSON: It's up to the group here, but currently the way it is, would be the Subcommittee would do the interview and then we'd do a recommendation to the whole committee unless the group here wants to be fully participatory in that process. In case they want to disclose confidential information, by having a subcommittee they can ... COLEMAN: Yeah, we did say "Upon evaluation of the proposals, the evaluation committee will present the Investment & Finance Committee with a list of firms recommended for admittance to the pool. Upon concurrence of the Investment and Finance Committee, a list of prospective firms will be (inaudible). GIBSON: Any questions? Seeing none, any comments by the committee members? Okay. The next meeting is April 27th. Yes? WORMLEY: One question, irrelevant. What is the status of the Salton Sea? GIBSON: Salton Sea Authority or the sea? WORMLEY: Both. And/or, what is the status of the Salton Sea? In other words, I hear that they are selling lots for development anywhere from five dollars to a hundred dollars. ORTEGA: I can send you a newsletter that the Salton Sea Authority puts out as to what the status is of all the clean up and all that. McCARTHY: I can comment, maybe, a little bit. I've been following it fairly closely over at CVEP, if you'd like. Investment & Finance Committee Verbatim Minutes — March 23, 2005 Page 5 of 6 ORTEGA: Oh yes. McCARTHY: Okay. Uh, well basically, as you know, we have nothing to do with the Salton Sea. WORMLEY: Right. McCARTHY: Okay. So, you have the Salton Sea Authority. The Salton Sea Authority is trying to get the State to agree to permit it to be the lead agency in terms of the restoration of the lake. As part of the big water deal that was struck, there was about $300 million that was identified as potentially dedicated to that purpose, and the Salton Sea Authority is looking at options of financing the gap. There's an estimate of about $750 million to actually do the restoration. One of the approaches is to do a, um, basically divide the lake kind of in two, have a freshwater, or more a lake that's useful for fishing and what-not, and then part of the lake would be more brimy and have a higher salt content. But it is embroiled in the regional water politics that's going on, and so no, and environmental, no major decisions have been made as yet. Know that there is an effort afoot to try and get the Authority to have the authority and the ability to do the restoration. The Salton Sea does have a very good website which they have, and you can get a great deal of information there. WORMLEY: I'll tell you what they can do. They can dynamite it. You know what that will do? It's the largest body of water in California. If they dynamite it, it will deepen it. It will kill the bacteria. It will kill the bad fish odor, and the lake will resolve. In other words, it will become a blue water lake like Lake Tahoe. That is the solution. It's a three-year project. The money will probably be authorized. Bonds will be sold, possibly. Now, Mike, what is the prime rate? CAVANAUGH: It was raised yesterday; it's five and a half. WORMLEY: What are you thinking it's going to go to? CAVANAUGH: End of the year it'll be over 6, 6.2. WORMLEY: Okay. That's reasonable. GIBSON: Any other comments or questions? HARGREAVES: Yeah, the Authority meets tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock at the IID headquarters in La Quinta. There will be a full presentation about where Investment & Finance Committee Verbatim Minutes — March 23, 2005 Page 6 of 6 they're at and where they're going if you're really interested in what's going on down there. WORMLEY: Uh, do you think we should buy gold or lots down there? HARGREAVES: In the short run, I'd buy lots down there. WORMLEY: I think you're right. In the long run, I'd buy gold. ORTEGA: I'd like to change my motion. That 40 million? (Laughter) I think we'll take 20 of that and go buy lots. (Laughter) GIBSON: Meeting is adjourned.

Gibson, CCMT Director of Finance/City Treasurer City of Palm Desert, California INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT We have performed the procedures enumerated below, which were agreed to the management of the City of Palm Desert, California (the City), solely to assist the City in reviewing Time Warner Cable's calculation of franchise fees remitted to the City, per agreements between the City and Time Warner Cable (the Grantee), for the year ended December 31, 2003. This engagement to apply agreed upon-procedures was performed in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The sufficiency of these procedures is solely the responsibility of the management of the City of Palm Desert. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the sufficiency of the procedures described below, either for the purpose for which this report has been requested, or for any other purpose. The procedures performed and the results obtained from the performance thereof were as follows: 1. Procedures Performed: We obtained and reviewed the Agreement between the City (the "Grantor")and Time Warner(the"Grantee"). Findings: We noted that the Agreement does not expressly state that internet services are included among the gross revenues subject to franchise fees. As a result, the Franchisee reduced its taxable gross revenues by the amount of revenues generated from internet services, amounting to $1,845,636.32.The related franchise fee could have been $92,281.82.

Gibson, CCMT Director of Finance/City Treasurer City of Palm Desert, California Page 2 2. Procedures Performed: For the year ended December 31, 2003, we obtained the quarterly schedule of franchise fees,which details amounts subject to the franchise fee (Gross Revenues)and the 5%fee applied. Findings: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures. 3. Procedures Performed: We reviewed the amount subject to fee (Gross Annual Revenues) and reviewed the general ledger for other potential revenues not reported (Gross Annual Revenues as defined in Section 2.13). Findings: 3.1 We noted that the franchise fee is calculated based on the actual payments collected plus Palm Desert's proportionate share in other revenues (noted below) during the quarter, reduced by the deductions listed below: Other Revenues - These are allocated based on the number of Palm Desert subscribers to the total Desert Cities subscribers in the system. (1) Tower rental income (2) DCR (3) Home Shopping (4) Magazine sales, net of cost of TV Guide(Finding#3.2) (5) Leased access (6) Local origination (7) Microwave services (8) Advertising Revenues, net of advertising bad debts (9) Other revenues Deductions: (1) Refunds-Customers'credit balances that are refunded to customers upon request (2) Late Charges/Fees- Fees charged to customers for late payment (3) Payment Reversals - Consists of NSFs, unauthorized ACH, ACH denied by the bank, stop-payment orders made by customers (4) Payment Adjustments - Credit card payment adjustments due to closed accounts and wrong card information provided by customers (5) Roadrunner Revenues - Revenues from high speed internet service (6) MISP- Revenues from AOL and Earthlink internet services (7) Possessory Taxes (8) FCC Regulatory Fees (9) Advertising Sales Bad Debts - It is noted that revenues should not be reduced by sales bad debts because franchise fees are calculated based on actual payments, which are on a cash basis. 3.2 The cost of TV Guide purchases incurred by Time Warner is deducted from the sales there from. However,during the first and third quarters,the costs of sales incurred were more than sales by an average of$950,00. USLance Soll s Lunghard LLP CERTIFIED MBOC ICCWNIINIS Paul S. Gibson, CCMT Director of Finance/City Treasurer City of Palm Desert, California Page 3 3.3 In the course of tracing other revenues to the general ledger,we noted some amounts being understated, resulting to a net understatement of franchise fees of$586.68. See calculation per Schedule A. 3.4 In the course of reviewing the general ledger, we noted significant amounts of reclassification amounting to $543,701 that was made in January 2003. We requested copies of the journal voucher and the corresponding supporting documents, but we received copies of journal vouchers only as of October 6, 2004. The journal vouchers do not provide sufficient information that will enable us to determine that those revenues really pertains to one cost center as against the other cost center. 4. Procedures Performed: For each quarter, we traced a sample of cash receipts to the summary of gross revenues. Findings: The usual procedure of selecting sample receipts to test was not possible under the system. The system set-up does not allow us to test individual customer account billings and payments. Alternatively, we selected five samples, one from each of the last five months, the data of which are available in the system as TWC San Diego took over the accounting from the Desert Cities office in August 2003, We requested a CPSD 100 Report for each of the selected days. We traced the total payments received for the day from CPSD 100 to the Deposit Analysis Report, and traced and agreed the total deposits per the Deposit Analysis Report to the CPSM 302 totals. No exceptions were noted. 5. Procedures Performed: We tested the calculation of 5%franchise fees. Findings: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures. 6. Procedures Performed: We reviewed any adjustments to franchise fees and amounts subject to fees. Findings: See procedure#3 above for adjustments or reductions from gross revenues. 7. Procedures Performed: We traced amounts in#5 above to quarterly cash receipts received by the City. We tested for accuracy and timeliness. Section 14.01.040(9)(c), Failure to Make Required Payment, of Ordinance 318 states that, "In the event that any franchise payment or recomputed amount is not made on or before the dates specified herein(i.e.30t"day of the following month at the end of each quarter), Grantee shall pay as additional compensation: (1) an interest charge, computed from such due date, at an annual rate equal to the commercial prime rate interest in effect upon the due date; and (2) a sum of money equal to 5% of the amount due in order to defray those additional expenses and costs incurred by the Grantor by reason of delinquent payment." Findings: We noted that payments of franchise fees for the third quarter, which were due on October 31, 2003(Friday),were received on November 3, 2003(Monday). Likewise,the fees for the fourth quarter, which were due on January 31, 2004 (Saturday), were received on February 3, 2004 (Tuesday). This resulted to delinquency penalties of $19,716.67. Refer to Schedule B for the calculation of delinquency penalties. IS $paIICG Lunghard LLP CERTIFIED MaM AC 17--M Paul S. Gibson, CCMT Director of Finance/City Treasurer City of Palm Desert, California Page 4 8. Procedures Performed: We verified that each franchise fee payment is accompanied by a report disclosing the total gross revenue collected by the grantee and an itemization of the various categories of revenues collected during the quarter. Findings: No exceptions were noted as a result of our procedures. 9. Procedures Performed: We obtained and reviewed the grantee's annual financial report due no later than 90 days after close of fiscal year. We traced the amount of gross revenues used in franchise fee calculation to the financial report. Findings: This procedure is not possible because the grantee's annual financial report covers the entire organization and the financial information pertaining to gross revenues for cable services in the City of Palm Desert is not shown separately in the financial report. Alternatively, amounts of payments for cable services and other revenues were traced to the general ledger. Some exceptions were noted and were discussed in finding#3.3. 10. Other Procedures Performed: We obtained an understanding of the billing and accounting systems of the Grantee. Based on the information gathered, the following describes the billing and accounting system of the grantee: Time Warner Cable has an operating unit in Palm Desert, CA, that oversees the operations for the Desert Cities consisting of 14 franchises. Accounting services are maintained in the San Diego office. However, billing service is being provided by Cable Service Group (CSG) of Omaha, Nebraska. CSG is responsible for the preparation and distribution of billings to all customers, accumulation of payment information and the maintenance of customers' accounts. They are also responsible for providing billing and collection information to the accounting office of Time Warner Cable in San Diego, CA. Billing cycle is from the 22nd of the previous month to the 21" of the current month. Payments through the local office goes to a local bank, the Bank of America, automatic debit (ACH)goes to the Mellon Bank and through the lock box,which goes to Bank One. CSG provides the following monthly reports to the Finance Department in San Diego: u CPSM 318 - Financial Summary Report-This report uses accrual basis of accounting. This report goes to "Onbase," an imaging system, and uploaded to Excel format, summarized, and recapitulated to formulate the necessary journal entries, which are booked into Legacy in 2003. • CPSM 302 - Report of Monetary Transaction Activity - This report is prepared on a cash basis and is used to prepare the Quarterly Report of Gross Revenues from Cable Services subject to Franchise Fees. o CPSM 306 - Payment Adjust Composition Report- This report is prepared on a cash basis and is used to prepare the Report of Other Revenues Allocable to all Franchise Agencies in the system. • CPSD 100-Ledger Activity Report-This report details the daily monetary transactions. The Accounting office in San Diego, CA prepares an analysis of deposits on a daily basis, making sure that deposits or payments are posted to the correct accounts and that payments collected reconciles with the daily deposits. LLS $p 1 & Lunghard LLP CERTIFIED MOLIC ACCOONUNTS Paul S. Gibson, CCMT Director of Finance/City Treasurer City of Palm Desert, California Page 5 Conclusion We were not engaged to, and did not, perform an audit of the franchise fees remitted by Time Warner, the objective of which would have been the expression of an opinion on the franchise fee payments made by Time Warner to the City. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to the City. This report is intended solely for the use of the City and should not be used by those who have not agreed to the procedures and taken responsibility for the sufficiency of these procedures. However, this report is made a matter of public record, and its distribution will not be limited. Although this type of engagement may occasionally disclose defalcation and similar irregularities, it is not designed for such purposes and should not be relied upon to disclose fraud, should any exist. ,/� sq'-4� VoA Schedule A Palm Desert-Time Warner Cable Franchise Fees Agreed-Upon Procedures December 31,2003 Other Revenue-Exceptions Noted Amount Per Amount per GL %of Amount Description/Period Acct No. Quarterly Report (MGFTB340) Over(Under) Allocation Allocated p Other Revenue-Jan'03 5M6-1-11-4699 $ 88,642.45 $ 90,223.91 $ (1,581.46) 0 Other Revenue-Feb'03 5M6-1-11-4699 92,023.68 93,175.85 (1,152.17) 03 Advertising Revenue-Feb'03 6U2-3-11-DAVD 719,056.92 743,631.92 (24,575.00) (AAd Sales Bad Debt-Feb'03 6U2-3-11-5711 17,847.06) - (7,847.06) Other Revenue-Mar'03 5106-1-114699 92.981.51 93,990.87 (1,009.36) Ad Sales Bad Debt-Mar'03 6U2-3-11-5711 2,279.77 4,966.30 (2,686.53) (38,851.58) 0.220963 $ 8,584.76 Ad Sales Bad Debt-Jul'03 6U2-3-11-5711 (6,205.34) 6,205.34 (12,410.66) 0.220246 2,733.40 C� Advertising Revenue-Oct'03 6U2-3-11-DAVD 870,235.61 872,165.11 (1,929.50) 0.215302 415.43 Total Under Statement of Other Revenues 11,733.59 Franchise fee rate 0.05 Total Under Payment of Franchise Tax $ 586.68 City of Palm Desert Schedule B Franchise Fees-Time Warner Cable Calculation of Delinquency Penalties December 31,2003 No.of Interest Total Franchise Due Date Days Penalty Prime Rate Delinquency Period covered Fees Paid Date Paid Delayed 5%(Note 1) 4%(Note 1) Penalty 3rd quarter2003 $ 190,968.55 10/31/03 11/03/03 2 $ 9,548.43 $ 41.86 $ 9,590.29 4th quarter 2003 202,084.59 01/31/04 02/03/04 1 10,104.23 22.15 10,126.38 $ 393 053.14 $ 19,652.66 $ 64.01 $ 19,716.67 Note 1 -This rate was obtained from the Prime Rate Historical Data on http://mortgage-x.com. hn- - �_ 3aa-b—y - - w
