Not applicable.
Committee Recommendation
The Audit, Investment and Finance Committee received the City of Palm Desert audited reports
at their January 22, 2019 meeting, and recommended that the report be received and filed by
the City Council.
Background
Lance, Soli & Lunghard, LLP performed and completed the annual independent audit for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, for the City of Palm Desert, which includes the Palm Desert
Housing Authority, in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. In the auditor's
opinion, the basic financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the City of Palm Desert as of June 30, 2018, and the results of its operations and the
cash flows of its proprietary funds for the year then ended in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
In conducting their audit, the auditors test the City's internal controls. Attached is the Report on
Internal Controls over Financial Reporting and on compliance and other matters based on an
audit of Financial Statements performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards.
The CAFR was submitted for the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association. In order to be awarded a
Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently
organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally
accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. We believe that our current
comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
We have audited, in accordance with the 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, the financial statements of the governmental
activities, the business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the
aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Palm Desert, California(the City), as of and for the year
ended June 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
City's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 14, 2018.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City's internal control
over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.Accordingly, we do not
express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control.
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. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any
deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses
may exist that have not been identified.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free from
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of lawg, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the
determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those
provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The
results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be
reported under Government Auditing Standards.

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 City'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.

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities,
discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of
the City of Palm Desert, California (the City) for the year ended June 30, 2018. Professional standards
require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing
standards, Government Auditing Standards and the Uniform Guidance, as well as certain information
related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our
letter to you dated December 14, 2018. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you
the following information related to our audit.
Significant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant
accounting policies used by the City are described in the notes to the financial statements.
As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the City changed its accounting policies related to
other postemployment benefits other than pension reporting by adopting Statement of Governmental
Accounting Standards (GASB Statement) No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for
Post-Employment Benefits Other Than Pensions in fiscal year 2017-2018. Accordingly, the cumulative
effect of the accounting change as of the beginning of the year is reported in the government-wide
statement of activities and the proprietary funds statement of revenues, expenses and changes in net
position.
We noted no transactions entered into by the City during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative
guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in
the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are
based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions
about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance
to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ
significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimate(s) affecting the City's financial statements
were:
Management's estimates of its net pension liability and net other postemployment
benefits liability are based on actuarial valuation specialist assumptions. We evaluated
the key factors and assumptions used to develop the net pension liability and net other
postemployment benefits liability in determining that they are reasonable in relation to the
financial statements taken as a whole.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.

City of Palm Desert, California
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our
audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the
audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. No
misstatements were found.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or
auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial
statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the
course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management
representation letter dated December 14, 2018.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting
matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves application
of an accounting principle to the City's financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor's
opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting
accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge,
there were no such consultations with other accountants.
Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing
standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City's auditors. However, these
discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a
condition to our retention.
Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to management discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison
schedule for the general fund and major special revenue funds as listed in the table of contents, schedule
of changes in net pension liability and related ratios, schedule of plan contributions-Pension, schedule of
changes in net OPEB Liability and related ratios, and schedules of contributions - OPEB, which are
required supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our
procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI.
LSL"::m
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
We were engaged to report on combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and
schedules, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this supplementary
information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form, content, and methods of
preparing the information to determine that the information complies with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America, the method of preparing it has not changed from the prior
period, and the information is appropriate and complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements.
We compared and reconciled the supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to
prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves.
We were not engaged to report on the introductory and statistical sections, which accompany the financial
statements but are not RSI. Such information has not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide
any assurance on them.
New Accounting Standards
The following new Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements were effective
for fiscal year 2017-2018 audit:
GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits
Other Than Pensions.

Residents of Palm Desert,
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
The Finance Department is pleased to present the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the City
of Palm Desert for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018.
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and
the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). We believe the data, as presented, is accurate in all
material respects and is presented in a manner that fairly represents the financial position and changes in financial
position of the City as measured by the financial activity of each of its funds. We also believe that all disclosures
necessary to enable the reader to fully understand the City's financial activities have been presented.
Responsibility for the accuracy,completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report rests with
the City.
The City of Palm Desert conducts an annual audit, which is performed by an independent certified public
accountant. The independent audit of the City's financial statements for fiscal year ended June 30, 2018 was
conducted by Lance Soll & Lunghard, LLP. The auditor's unmodified ("clean") opinion on the basic financial
statements is included in the Financial Section of this report. This is the most favorable opinion.
As part of the City's annual audit engagement, the auditors reviewed the City's internal control structure as well
as compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Because the cost of internal control should not exceed
anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute assurance, that the financial
statements are free of any material misstatements.The results of the City's annual audit for fiscal year ended June
30, 2018 provided no instances of material weaknesses in connection with the internal control structure or
significant violations of applicable laws and regulations.
As recipients of federal,state and county financial resources,the City may be required to undergo an annual single
audit. However, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, the City is not required to have a single audit performed.
Management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor's report and
provides a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis of the basic financial statements. MD&A complements
this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it.

Capital Projects, and certain Special Revenue Funds are adopted annually;however,these budgets are considered
to be long-term in nature.
The City also maintains an encumbrance accounting system of purchase orders and contracts at the fund level as
a means of accomplishing budgetary control. At each fiscal year end, open encumbrances are carried over to the
new fiscal year. Purchase orders are reviewed to ensure that funds are available and that requests are properly
authorized prior to being released to vendors.
The adopted budget for fiscal year 2017-2018 was prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. As reflected in the statements and schedules included in the financial
section of this report, the City continues to meet its responsibility for sound financial management.
LOCAL ECONOMY
•
The City comprises an area of approximately 26 square miles and, as of January 1, 2018, has a population of
52,769 according to data provided by the California Department of Finance. In addition to permanent residents,
approximately 20,000 seasonal residents make Palm Desert their home for three to six months each year.
The City has cultivated a sound foundation of general fund revenues including sales tax,transient occupancy tax,
licenses and permits, property tax, and investment earnings. Tourism and sales tax are the City's main revenue
sources. Due to the timing of Palm Desert's incorporation in 1973, the City receives less than 7 percent of the
post-Proposition 13 property taxes; therefore, the City relies heavily on sales tax and transient occupancy tax.
As a community where economic, environmental, social, and cultural development flourishes, Palm Desert is a
much sought-after place to visit and reside. As the first city in Riverside County to create a public art program,
Palm Desert is home to numerous cultural attractions including: the McCallum Theatre for the Performing Arts,
a 1,127-seat theater that hosts a wide variety of A-list entertainers,touring theatrical productions, and arts-related
educational programs; The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens,a 1,200-acre facility containing a wide array of plants
and animals from desert regions around the world; and the Palm Desert Art in Public Places program, a museum
without walls, featuring more than 150 works of art on permanent display throughout the city.
Palm Desert's active, five-star accredited Chamber of Commerce has more than 1,125 members who work to
promote, support, and enhance business prosperity, civic vitality, and the quality of life within their community.
Noted for its extensive array of retail options, including the world-famous upscale shopping destination of El
Paseo, Palm Desert is home to a variety of malls and retail centers including Westfield Palm Desert, Desert
Crossing, The Gardens on El Paseo, and El Paseo Village.
The internationally acclaimed Desert Willow Golf Resort, one of the nation's premier municipal courses, boasts
36 holes of championship golf and stunning scenery in close proximity to first-class hotel accommodations and
fine dining.
In addition to being the home of the Coachella Valley's only community college, College of the Desert, Palm
Desert is the location of satellite campuses for both the University of California, Riverside, and California State
cytilyelltypMBilinfiyo, the region's only public, four-year university.

projects for the fiscal year of 2018-2019. Projects include resurfacing streets, sidewalk repairs and construction,

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of governmental activities, the business-type
activities, discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund
information of City of Palm Desert, California, (the City) as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, and
the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial
statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes
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.
Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating
the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinions.

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
respective financial position of the governmental activities. the business-type activities, the discretely
presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City of Palm Desert, California, as of June 30, 2018, 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.
Change in Accounting Principle
As discussed in Note 18 to the financial statements. in 2018 the City adopted new accounting guidance,
GASB Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Post-Employment Benefits Other Than
Pensions. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's
discussion and analysis, the budgetary comparison schedules for the general fund and major special
revenue funds as listed in the table of contents, the schedule of changes in net pension liability and
related ratio, the schedule of contributions, the schedule of changes in net OPEB and related ratios, and
the schedule of contributions be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information, 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.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively
comprise the City's basic financial statements. The introductory section, combining and individual
nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules, and statistical section are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.
The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of
management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records
used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures,
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 combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements
and schedules are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a
whole.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Our discussion and analysis of the City of Palm Desert's financial performance for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2018 provides: a comparison of current year to prior year ending results based on the
government-wide financial statements; an analysis of the City's overall financial position and results of
operations to assist users in evaluating the City's financial position; a discussion of significant changes that
occurred in the funds; and significant budget variances. In addition, it describes the activities during the
year for capital assets and long-term debt. We end our discussion and analysis with a description of known
facts, decisions, and conditions that are expected to have a significant effect on the financial position or
results of operations. Please read it in conjunction with the transmittal letter and the City's financial
statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The City's total assets and deferred outflows exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows by$793.31
million (net position).
• The City's governmental activities net position decreased$15.36 million, and the net position of the
business-type activities increased $0.06 million.
• During the year, the City's revenues were $88.89 million and expenses were $91.47 million in its
governmental activities, excluding transfers, compared to fiscal year 2017, where revenues were
$88.51 million and expenses were $86.61 million.
• In the City's business-type activities, expenses were $0.36 million less than the $10.05 million
generated in golf course green fees, merchandise sales, rental income and other revenues

its expenses.
• The City's governmental activities program revenues and general revenues increased by $0.38
million, while program expenses increased $4.86 million.
• Business-type activities revenues increased $0.64 million, from $9.41 million to $10.05 million.
Expenses increased from the $9.13 million to $9.69 million.

available for expenditures were over budget by$0.06 million.
USING THIS ANNUAL REPORT
This annual report consists of a series of financial statements. The Statement of Net Position and
Statement of Activities (on pages 17, 18 and 19) provide information about the activities of the City as a
whole and present a long-term view of the City's finances. The fund financial statements start on Page 22.
For governmental activities, these fund statements tell how these services were financed in the short term
as well as what remains for future spending. The fund financial statements also report the City's operation
in more detail than the government-wide statements by providing information about the City's most
significant funds and other funds. The remaining fiduciary fund statement provides financial information
about activities for which the City acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of those outside of the
government.
5
REPORTING THE CITY AS A WHOLE
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities:
Our analysis of the City as a whole begins on page 17. One of the most important questions asked about
the City's finances is, "Is the City as a whole better off or worse off as a result of the year's activities?" The
Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole and
about its activities in a way that answers this question. These statements include all assets and liabilities
of the City using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the accounting used by most
private-sector companies. All of the current year's revenues and expenses are taken into account
regardless of when cash is received or paid.
These two statements report the City's net position and changes in them. Net position is the difference
between total assets and deferred outflows of resources less liabilities and deferred inflows, which is one
way to measure the City's financial health, or financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the
City's net position are an indication of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. Other
non-financial factors should be considered, however, such as changes in the economy that could cause a
decrease in consumer spending.
In the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, we separate City activities as follows:
Governmental activities—Most of the City's basic services are reported in this category, including general
administration (city manager, city clerk, finance, etc.), housing and redevelopment, public safety
(police and fire protection), public works, parks & recreation. and culture departments. Property taxes,
sales tax, transient occupancy tax, user fees, interest income, franchise fees, state and federal grants,
contributions from other agencies, and other revenues finance these activities.
Business-type activities —The City charges a fee to customers to cover all or most of the cost of certain
services it provides. The City's municipal golf course. Desert Willow, and the City's Parkview Office
Complex activities are reported in this category.
Component unit activities — The City includes one separate legal entity in its report — the Palm Desert
Recreational Facilities Corporation. Although legally separate, this "component unit" is important because
the City is financially accountable for it.
REPORTING THE CITY'S MOST SIGNIFICANT FUNDS
Fund Financial Statements:
The fund financial statements provide detailed information about the most significant funds and other funds,
not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law and by bond covenants.
However, management established many other funds to help it control and manage money for particular
purposes or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants, and other
resources. The City has three types of funds: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary.
Governmental funds— Most of the City's basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus
on how money flows in and out of those funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for
spending. These funds are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual accounting, which
measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental fund
statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City's general government operations and the basic
services it provides. Governmental fund information helps determine whether there are more or fewer
financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City's programs. The differences of
results in the Governmental Fund financial statements to those in the Government-wide financial
statements are explained in a reconciliation following each Governmental Fund financial statement.
6
Proprietary funds — When the City charges customers for the services it provides, these services are
generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same way that all activities are
reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. The City's enterprise funds are
the same as the business-type activities we report in the government-wide statements, but provide more
detail and information such as a statement of cash flows.
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 of Palm Desert operations. The accounting
used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
THE CITY AS TRUSTEE
Reporting the City's Fiduciary Responsibilities:
The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency's
(Successor Agency) private-purpose trust fund and for certain agency funds held on behalf of developers
and its employees' retiree service stipend fund. The City's fiduciary activities are reported in separate
Statements of Net Position, Statement of Changes in Net Position, Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and
Statement of Changes in Assets and Liabilities. We exclude these activities from the City's other financial
statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for
ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.
THE CITY AS A WHOLE
During the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018, the City's combined net position decreased $15.30 million
from $808.61 million to $793.31 million. A separate review of the net change in the governmental and
business-type activities is provided for the reader. Our analysis focuses on the net position (Table 1) and
changes in net position (Table 2) of the City's governmental and business-type activities.

The City's governmental activities net position decreased$15.36 million. The City's net position is made up
of three components: Net investment in capital assets; restricted net position; and unrestricted net position.
For governmental activities, unrestricted net position, which represents the part of net position that can be
used to finance day-to-day operations, accounted for 11.56 percent of the overall total net position.
Unrestricted net position decreased $4.04 million from $87.09 million in 2017 to $83.05 million in 2018. At
first glance, an assumption can be made that the City did not fare as well as last year. However, when you
analyze the figures, the General Fund had a positive net change of$6.38 million. The main reason for the
decrease was the restatement of net position from $733.95 million to $720.87 million, a $13.08 million
decrease. The City implemented GASB No. 75, which required the City to record its net OPEB liability,
which was $4.12 million. In 2017, the City had $9.43 million as a Net OPEB Assets, representing the
difference between the Annual Required Contribution and actual contribution (see Note 18).
The decrease of$0.46 million in restricted net position was due to the following: restricted capital projects
decreased by$0.22 million from $110.16 million in 2017 to$109.94 million in 2018. During the year, capital
restricted funds were expended for street resurfacing, drainage improvements, and street improvements.
Restricted special projects decreased by $0.24 million, the majority of which is attributable to the cost of
maintaining the City's affordable apartment complexes at a high standard and the cost of the City's
fire protection services.
Investment in capital assets decreased $10.86 million. The decrease is attributed to current year
depreciation of $12.01 million. The calculation of investment in capital assets includes outstanding debt
used to purchase or construct the City's capital assets.
The City's governmental activities total assets and deferred outflow of resources combined decreased
$12.55 million from $807.61 million in 2017 to $795.06 million in 2018. The decrease is mostly attributable
to the $9.43 million decrease in the net OPEB Assets. Other major changes that affected total assets and
deferred outflow combined were the capital assets decrease of$10.86 million and a $3.52 million increase
in deferred outflow of resources which is due to the $2.31 million pension plan deferred outflows
(see Note 8d) and $1.21 million OPEB deferred outflows (see Note 12h).
Total liabilities and deferred inflows combined increased by $2.81 million from $73.66 in 2017 to
$76.47 million in 2018. The increase is due to OPEB liability of$4.12 million discussed above.
The net position of the business-type activities saw a slight increase of$0.06 million, from$74.66 million to
$74.72 million.The main factor for the increase in net position was overall increase in gross revenues which
increased by $0.64 million from the previous year. During the 2017-18 fiscal year, the regional golf market
recognized a 7.4 percent increase in the overall revenue per available golf round. Desert Willow's dynamic
pricing strategy increased it's revenue per available round by 11.3 percent.
Total liabilities increased $0.87 million from $1.63 million in 2017 to $2.50 million in 2018. The increase in
debt obligation for the new lease of golf course maintenance equipment (see Note 6) is the major factor for
the increase in total liabilities.

Total revenue(excluding transfers) increased from$88.51 million to$88.89 million. Factors that contributed
to the changes in revenues are as follows:
• Transient occupancy tax increase from$15.24 million in 2017 to$17.30 million in 2018, an increase
of$2.06 million.
• In 2018, the City accounted for$1.90 million in investment earnings compared to $1.04 million in
2017, an increase of$0.86 million.
• The City's combined general property taxes and sales tax increased by $0.52 million from
$29.24 million in 2017 to$29.76 million in 2018. These increases were offset by:
• A decrease of $5.27 million in capital contributions and grants from $7.71 million in 2017 to
$2.44 million in 2018. In 2017, the Successor Agency made a capital contribution of$3.55 million
to be used for capital expenditures, no such contribution was made in 2018.
Total expenses increased from $86.61 million to $91.47 million, a 5.61 percent increase. The primary
reason for the increase was in the public work function that increased 3.46 million.The increase is attributed
the City spending $4.30 million more on street resurfacing than in the prior year. Additional factors in the
change in amount of expenses for the year include, general government increased $2.76 million, which
was largely due to the City's additional pension payment of $1.70 million. Public safety increased
$1.60 million attributed to the increase in police costs from$19.83 million to$20.51 million and the increase
in fire protection services from $12.10 million to$13.50 million.

Business-type Activities
In the business-type activities, total revenues increased by 6.8 percent from $9.41 million to$10.05 million,
a $0.64 million increase. The overall increase was related to the dynamic pricing structure implemented at
the Desert Willow Golf Resort. Total green fees were $0.72 million more than the previous year.
Desert Willow Golf Resort management continued to utilize a strategic pricing structure, which allowed the
golf resort to retain the course utilization, which optimized the green fee revenue during periods that were
traditionally under-utilized and sold at a discount. The overall rounds mix and play remained consistent with
the previous years.
The Parkview Office Complex revenues increased slightly. The rental market remained soft during the
fiscal year; the tenant mix remained unchanged.
Operating expenses for business-type activities increased by $0.56 million from $9.13 million to
$9.69 million. The increase was directly related to increased golf course rounds, increased interest from a
$1.50 million dollar loan from the City of Palm Desert General Fund, and new golf course equipment lease
of$1.39 million. Both Desert Willow and the City continued to implement effective and efficient methods to
Icontrol costs without impacting service.

THE CITY'S FUNDS
On Page 22, the governmental funds balance sheet is shown. The combined fund balance of
$299.93 million increased from $295.05 million, or 1.65 percent. This total includes the General Fund
balance of$90.37 million, which increased by $6.38 million from the prior year. The City's General Fund
balance has a non-spendable balance of $10.51 million, committed balance of $59.67 million, assigned
balance of$15.49 million, and $4.70 million of unassigned fund balance. The change in the General Fund's
balance was due to growth in transient occupancy tax and investment earning. Other major fund balance
changes are noted below:
• The Prop A Fire Tax Special Revenue Fund: The fund balance decreased $0.41 million. The City
transferred $3.67 million to cover the shortage.
• The Housing Asset Fund: The fund balance had a decrease of $0.21 million. The housing asset
fund reimbursed the housing authority for costs associated with improvements to the Authority
owned affordable apartment complexes.
• Measure A Special Revenue Fund: the fund balance increased from $21.55 million to
$21.97 million. Projects budgeted at $29.98 million are at their early stage which resulted in non-
spending of available funds.
• Housing Authority Fund: This fund had a minor decrease of $0.26 million from $20.24 million to
$19.98 million.
• Capital Properties Fund: The fund balance decreased $0.40 million from $69.15 million to
$68.75 million. The decrease was due to the capital project expenditures.
More detailed information about the combined fund balance reserves is presented in Note 9 to the financial
statements.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Based upon recommendations from the staff, the City Council revised the budget several times during the
year. Adjustments were made on a monthly basis as City staff requested additional appropriations to cover
the cost of projects that either had change orders for additional work, or were underestimated.At mid-year,
no adjustments were requested as department budgets met current demands. At year-end, budgets were
adjusted for unanticipated approved expenditures. All amendments that either increase or decrease
appropriations are approved by the City Council.
For the City's General Fund, the actual ending revenues of$60.85 million were$0.06 million more than the
final budgeted revenues of$60.79 million. Sales and transient occupancy taxes continue to be the top two
revenue generators for the City, totaling $36.65 million or 58.58 percent of the total General Fund actual
revenues.
The General Fund actual ending expenditures of$54.47 million were$2.49 million less than the final budget
of$56.96 million. There were changes in the original budget compared to the final budget during the year.
The original expenditure budget was $56.27 million compared to the final budget of $56.96 million, a
$0.69 million increase. An additional $1.70 million was appropriated to reduce the City's pension liability,
which represents the major change between original budget and final budget.

The City was able to meet its current year debt obligation in a timely manner. Bonds that were issued in
prior years have been used to finance various capital projects.
The City's business-type activities debt increased $0.99 million from $0.50 million to $1.49 million. Debt in
the business-type activities is for capital leasing of equipment. The City's golf course uses leasing as an
alternative to purchasing golf carts and maintenance equipment to maintain a cash flow to operate the
day-to-day activities. The increase in the City's business-type activities debt was directly related to entering
a new golf course equipment lease in the amount of$1.39 million. The City's business-type activities were
able to meet their current year debt obligation in a timely manner. More detailed information about the City's
long-term liabilities is presented in Note 6 to the financial statements.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR'S BUDGETS
In preparing the budget for fiscal year 2019, management focused three core principles: 1) maintain the
level of service expected by residents, businesses, and visitors: 2) review standards of infrastructure
maintenance and operation and adjust standards to provide quality City facilities in line with budget
considerations, including but not limited to parks, roads, and buildings; and 3) invest in infrastructure and
technology to address deferred maintenance and outdated hardware/software that resulted from necessary
cost-cutting measures in previous years. The following economic factors were considered by management:
• Goals of the strategic plan as top priority.
• Increase in healthcare and retirement costs.
• Increase in police and fire protection services.
The 2019 budget is a reflection of the City's commitment to the residents of Palm Desert. The City's
conservative approach has provided for a consistently high level of services. The City has made a
commitment to allocate resources for public safety, cultural/social programs, and necessary infrastructure
improvements. Copies of the City's 2018-2019 Financial Plan can be obtained by contacting the City's
Finance Department or by visiting the City's website at www.cityofpalmdesert org.

RECONCILIATION OF THE BALANCE SHEET OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
TO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
JUNE 30,2018
Total fund balance for governmental funds $ 299,931,284
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position are
different because:
Capital assets net of depreciation have not been included as financial resources
in the govenmental fund activity. 436,029,572
Deferred outflows related to pension and OPEB related items are not included in the
governmental fund activity:
Pension
Contributions made after the measurement date $ 5,396,908
Changes in assumptions 4,911,815
Net Difference between projected and actual earning on plan investments 1,101,808 11,410,531
OPEB
Contributions made after the measurement date 1,217,465
Deferred inflows related to pension and OPEB related items are not included in the
governmental fund activity:
Pension
Changes in assumptions (130,710)
Differences between expected and actual experiences (2,923,668) (3,054,378)
OPEB
Net Difference between projected and actual earning on plan investments (49,049)
Long-term debt, claims and judgements, net OPEB, and net pension liability are not
the governmental fund activity:
Bonds (2,658,000)
Claims and judgments (360,237)
Net OPEB liability (4,120,584)
Net pension liability (38,965,978) (46,104,799)
Interest on long-term debt is not accrued in governmental funds, but rather is
recognized as an expenditure when due. (84,239)
Unavailable revenues are not reported as revenues in governmental funds and thus
has the effect of decreasing fund balances. For the City as a whole, however, the
collection of these receipts increases the net position in the Statement of Net Position
and results in revenues in the Statement of Activities. 8,478,139
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain activities,
such as equipment and compensated absences to individual funds.The assets and
liabilities of the internal service fund must be added to the Statement of Net Position.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
a. Description of the Reporting Entity
The City of Palm Desert was originally incorporated on November 26, 1973, as a
General Law City. In December 1997, Measure LL was enacted following a vote by
Palm Desert residents, which adopted a City Charter. The City operates under a
Council-Manager form of government and provides the following services: public safety
(police and fire), highways and streets, public improvements, community development
(planning, building and zoning) and general administrative services.
The City has defined its reporting entity in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America which provides guidance for determining which
governmental activities, organizations and functions should be included in the reporting
entity. The Basic Financial Statements present information on the activities of the reporting
entity, which include the City of Palm Desert (the primary government) and its component
units, entities for which the government is considered financially accountable.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
component units be separated into blended or discretely presented units for reporting
purposes. The following criteria were used in determination of blended component units:
appointment of the governing board and fiscal dependence. Although legally separate
entities, blended component units are, in substance, part of the City's operations.
Therefore, they are reported as part of the primary government. Discretely presented
component units are reported in a separate column in the basic financial statements to
emphasize that they are legally separate from the City.
Blended Component Units
Following are descriptions of legally separate component units for which the City is
financially accountable that are blended with the Primary Government. The governing
bodies of these component units are substantially the same with operational responsibility
as the City and provides a financial benefit.
The Palm Desert Housing Authority (Housing Authority) was established by the
City Council in January 1998, and is responsible for the administration of providing
affordable housing in the City. The Housing Authority transactions are reported in the
governmental funds balance sheet as a major fund.
The Palm Desert Financing Authority (Financing Authority) was formed on
January 26, 1989. The purpose of the Financing Authority is to issue debt and loan the
proceeds to the City and Agency. The Financing Authority's capital related transactions
are reported in the governmental fund financial statements in the capital projects funds,
and the collection of assessments and payments of debt service is recorded in the
fiduciary funds.
The City Council of Palm Desert is the governing body for the Housing Authority and
Financing Authority.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Separate financial statements are not issued for the Housing Authority and
Financing Authority.
Discretely Presented Component Unit
The Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation (Corporation) was incorporated on
February 25, 1997. The purpose of the Corporation is to lease, operate and manage a
restaurant and bar in the Desert Willow Golf Course in Palm Desert, California. The Board
of Directors of the Corporation appoints an executive director to administer operations.
The Corporation is in a separate column to emphasize that it is legally separate from the
City and is financially accountable to the City. The two-member board governing the
Corporation is appointed by the City Council, the City has authority to approve the
Corporation's budget, and the City must approve any debt issued.
Complete financial statements of the Component Unit can be obtained from the City's
administrative offices.
b. Basis of Presentation:
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the
statement of activities) 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 these statements. 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 and indirect
expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses
are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. 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. Expenses reported for
functional activities include allocated indirect expenses.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and
fiduciary funds, even though the latter are 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.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Fund Financial Statements
The accounting system of the City is organized and operated on the basis of separate
funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is
accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its
assets, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, fund equity, revenues and
expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized into three major categories: governmental,
proprietary and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental
and proprietary categories.
A fund is considered major if it is the primary operation fund of the City or meets the
following criteria:
a. Total assets plus deferred outflows of resources, liabilities plus deferred inflows of
resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or
enterprise fund are at least 10%of the corresponding total for all funds of that category
or type; and
b. Total assets plus deferred outflows of resources, liabilities plus deferred inflows of
resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental fund or
enterprise fund are at least 5% of the corresponding total for all governmental and
enterprise funds combined.
c. The government has determined that a fund is important to the financial statement
user.
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:
Governmental Fund Types
General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to
account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another
fund.
Special Revenue Funds-Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of
specific revenue resources (other than major capital projects) that are legally restricted to
expenditures for specified purposes.
Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of
resources for, and the payment of, general long-term obligation principal, interest and
related costs.
Capital Projects Funds-Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources
to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities.
37
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Proprietary Fund Types
Enterprise Funds - The Enterprise Funds account for operations that are financed and
operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent of the
City Council is that the costs (expenses including depreciation) of providing goods and
services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily
through user charges.
The Primary Government's Enterprise funds consist of the Parkview Office Complex and
the Desert Willow Golf Course. Desert Willow Golf Course is operated by a management
company. The discretely presented Component Unit's fund consists of the Palm Desert
Recreational Facilities Corporation, also operated by a management company.
Internal Service Funds - The Internal Service Funds account for financial transactions
related to replacement of City-owned vehicles and equipment and to fund compensated
absences. These services are provided to other departments or agencies of the City on a
cost reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Fund Types
Private-Purpose Trust Fund
The Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency Private Purpose Trust
Fund is used to account for the activities of the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert
Redevelopment Agency.
Agency Funds
The Agency, Special Assessment and Treasurers 1911 Bond Act Funds are used to
account for assets held by the City in a custodial capacity as a trustee or as an agent.
These assets include deposits placed with the City by developers, individuals and groups
to obtain future services, as well as deposits from assessment district's property owners.
These deposits are reduced by payments and/or refunds to individuals or entities at some
future time. Agency funds are custodial in nature and do not involve measurement of
results of operations.
The City's Retiree Service Stipend Fund is used to account for assets held to pay for the
retiree service stipend.
The major funds are as follows:
Governmental Funds
The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all
financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The Measure A Special Revenue Fund - In 1988, Riverside County voters approved a
half-cent sales tax, known as Measure A, to fund a variety of highway improvements, local
street and road maintenance, commuter assistance and specialized transit projects. This
fund is used to collect this tax, and pursuant to the provision of Measure A
(Ordinance No. 88-1 and Ordinance No. 02-001 of the County of Riverside) it is restricted
for local street and road expenditures only.
The Prop A Fire Tax Special Revenue Fund is used to account for all revenues derived
from tax collected within the City for upgrading fire protection and prevention. Its use is
restricted to obtaining, furnishing, operating and maintaining fire protection and prevention
services (currently under contract with Riverside County Fire Department) equipment or
apparatus. This fund is reported as a major fund because the tax collected is a voter
approved measure.
The Housing Asset Fund is used to account for any funds generated from housing assets
of the former Redevelopment Agency to be used for projects that benefit low and moderate
income families.
The Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund is used to account for revenues and
expenditures related to rental units owned by the Housing Authority, established in
January, 1998.
The Capital Properties Capital Projects Fund is used to account for the cost of city owned
properties that will either be sold or for the construction of public facilities, and the proceeds
of bond funds for capital related properties.
Proprietary Fund
The Desert Willow Golf Course Fund is used to account for the fees collected and expenses
incurred in connection with operating the municipal golf course in the City of
Palm Desert.
c. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe which transactions are recorded within the
various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to when transactions are recorded
regardless of the measurement focus applied.
On the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, both
governmental and business-like activities are presented using the economic resources
measurement focus. The accounting objectives of the economic measurement focus are
the determination of operating income, changes in net position (or cost recovery),financial
position and cash flows. All assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources (whether current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are
reported.
In the fund financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement focus or
the"economic resources" measurement focus is used as appropriate:
39
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
1. All governmental funds utilize a"current financial resources" measurement focus. Only
current financial assets, deferred outflows of resources, current liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources are generally included on their balance sheets. Their operating
statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources
during a given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available
spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
2. The proprietary fund and private purpose trust fund utilize an "economic resources"
measurement focus. Proprietary fund and private purpose trust fund equity are
classified as net position.
3. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore,
measurement focus is not applicable to them.
Basis of Accounting
In the government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, both
governmental and business-like activities are presented using the accrual basis of
accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned
and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used.
Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets and liabilities resulting from exchange and
exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Under this modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are
recognized when "measurable and available". Measurable means knowing or being able
to reasonably estimate the amount. Available means collectible within the current period
or soon enough thereafter to pay current liabilities.
Revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes and special assessments
that are levied for and due for the fiscal year and collected within 60 days after year-end.
Licenses, permits, fines, forfeits, charges for services and miscellaneous revenues are
recorded as governmental fund type revenues when received in cash because they are
not generally measurable until actually received. Revenue from taxpayer assessed taxes,
such as sales taxes, are recognized in the accounting period in which they became both
measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Grants and similar items
are recognized as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been
met. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual
accounting. However debt service expenditures as well as expenditures related to
compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is
due.
Interfund activity has been eliminated from the general government function for the
government-wide financial statements except for charges between the government's
Desert Willow Golf Course and Parkview Office Complex funds and various other functions
of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program
revenues for the various functions considered.
The accrual basis of accounting is followed by the proprietary fund and private purpose
trust fund. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned
and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic assets are used.
40
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items.
Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing goods and services in
connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal revenue of
the Desert Willow Golf Course and Parkview Office Complex Enterprise Funds are charges
to customers for use of the golf course and rental fees. Operating expenses for enterprise
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
non-operating revenues and expenses.
d. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position and the governmental funds balance
sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This
separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a
consumption of net position that applies to future periods and so will not be recognized as
an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until that time. The City has the following
items that qualify for reporting in this category:
• Deferred amount on refunding. A deferred amount on refunding results from the
difference in the carrying value of the refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This
amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or
refunding debt.
• Deferred outflows related to pensions and OPEB. This amount is equal to employer
contributions made after the measurement date of the net pension liability and net
OPEB liability.
• Deferred outflows related to pensions resulting from the difference in projected and
actual earnings on investments of the pension plan fiduciary net position. These
amounts are amortized over five years.
• Deferred outflows of resources related to pensions arising from a change in
assumptions.These amounts are amortized over a closed period equal to the average
of the expected remaining service lives of all employees that are provided with
pensions through the plan, which is 3.0 years.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position and the governmental funds balance
sheet will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This
separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an
acquisition of net position that applies to future periods and will not be recognized as an
inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has the following items that qualify
for reporting in this category:
• Deferred inflows from unavailable revenue, which arises under a modified accrual
basis of accounting is reported only in the governmental fund balance sheet. The
governmental funds report unavailable revenues from the following sources: rent,
investment income, grants, notes receivables collections and reimbursements. These
amounts are unavailable and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that
the amounts become available.
41
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
• Deferred inflows related to pensions for differences between expected and actual
experience. These amounts are amortized over a closed period equal to the average
of the expected remaining service lives of all employees that are provided with
pensions through the plan, which is 3.0 years.
• Deferred inflows from pensions resulting from changes in assumptions. These
amounts are amortized over a closed period equal to the average expected remaining
service lives of all employees that are provided with pensions through the plan, which
is 3.0 years.
Gains and losses related to changes in total OPEB liability and fiduciary net position are
recognized in OPEB expense systematically over time. Amounts are first recognized in
OPEB expense for the year the gain or loss occurs. The remaining amounts are
categorized as deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB and
are to be recognized in future OPEB expense.
• The recognition period differs depending on the source of the gain or loss:
Net difference between projected and actual 5 years
earnings on OPEB plan investments
All other amounts Expected average remaining service lifetime
(EARL) (5.44 years at June 30, 2017
measurement date)
e. Net Position Flow Assumption
Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted
(e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate
the amounts to report as restricted - net position and unrestricted - net position, a flow
assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be
applied.
It is the City's practice to consider restricted - net position to have been depleted before
unrestricted - net position is applied.
f. Capital Assets and Depreciation
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets
(e.g., roads, traffic signals, drainage systems and similar items), are reported in the
applicable governmental or business-type activities column in the government-wide
financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial cost of
more than $500 and an estimated life in excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at
historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital
assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation.
The City has reported general infrastructure assets acquired in prior and current years.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or
materially extend asset lives are not capitalized.
42
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, as well as the component units,
are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings 40 years
Improvements other than buildings 20 years
Machinery and equipment 5 to 8 years
Infrastructure 20 to 75 years
g. Appropriations Limit
Under Article XIII-B of the California Constitution (the Gann Spending Limitation Initiative),
the City is restricted as to the amount of annual appropriations from the proceeds of taxes,
and if proceeds of taxes exceed allowed appropriations, the excess must either be
refunded to the State Controller or returned to the taxpayers through revised tax rates,
revised fee schedules or other refund arrangements. For the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2018, proceeds of taxes did not exceed appropriations.
h. Investments
Investments are reported in the accompanying financial statements at fair value. Fair value
is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Changes in fair value
that occur during a fiscal year are recognized as investment income reported for that fiscal
year. Investment income includes interest earnings, changes in fair value, and any gains
or losses realized upon the liquidation, maturity, or sale of investments.
i. Cash and Investments
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City has defined cash and investments to
include cash on hand, demand deposits, investments held in various instruments, and
investments held in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF),
California Asset Management Program (CAMP) and Riverside County Treasurer's Pooled
Investment Fund.
j. Employee Compensated Absences
It is the government's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused
vacation and sick leave (compensated absences). Vacation pay and sick leave, which are
expected to be liquidated with expendable available resources,are reported as expenditure
and liability of the governmental fund that will pay it only if they have matured, for example,
as a result of employee resignations or retirements. Compensated absences in the amount
of$2,386,772, are reported in the Compensation Benefits Internal Service Fund.
k. Property Held for Resale
The land held for resale is recorded in the Housing Asset Fund as property held for resale
at the lower of cost or market.At June 30, 2018, the cost of the property held for resale for
various housing properties in Palm Desert totaled $61,516.

I. Inventories, Prepaid Costs and Deposits
Inventory in the amount of $199,741 and $47.624, for the Desert Willow Golf Course
Enterprise Fund (Primary Government) and Palm Desert Recreational Facilities
Corporation (Component Unit), respectively. are reported at lower of cost or market.
Inventory in the amount of$4,868 in the Other Governmental Funds are also reported at
lower of cost or market. Inventory and prepaid costs are recorded as an expenditure when
consumed rather than purchased.
Certain payments to vendors that reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods are
recorded as prepaid costs in the government-wide and fund financial statements.
The Measure A Special Revenue Fund has a deposit in the amount of$15,393,231 with
another governmental agency to pay for future construction of a City project.
m. Property Tax Calendar
Property taxes are assessed and collected each fiscal year according to the following
property tax calendar:
Lien date: January 1
Levy date: July 1 to June 30
Due date: November 1 - 1st Installment
March 1 -2nd Installment
Delinquent date: December 10 - 1st Installment
April 10 -2nd Installment
Under California law, property taxes are assessed and collected by the counties up to 1%
of assessed value, plus other increases approved by the voters. The property taxes go into
a pool and are then allocated to the cities based on complex formulas prescribed by state
statutes. The City accrues only those taxes, which are received within 60 days after the
year-end. The City is a participant in the Teeter Plan under the California Revenue and
Taxation Code. The County of Riverside has responsibility for the collection of delinquent
taxes and the City receives 100% of the levy.
n. Restricted Assets
Certain proceeds of debt issues, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment,
are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because they are maintained in
separate trustee bank accounts and their use is limited to applicable bond covenants. In
addition, funds have been restricted for future capital improvements by City resolution.
o. Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability and deferred outflows/inflows of
resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net
position of the District's California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS) plans
(Plans) and additions to/deductions from the Plans' fiduciary net position have been
determined on the same basis as they are reported by CalPERS. 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.

p. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB)
For purposes of measuring the total OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and
deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and the OPEB expense have been
determined by an independent actuary. For this purpose, benefit payments are recognized
when currently due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that the reported results must pertain to
liability and asset information within certain defined timeframes. For this report, the
following timeframes are used:
Valuation Date June 30, 2017
Measurement Date June 30, 2017
Measurement Period June 30, 2016 to June 30, 2017
q. Use of Estimates
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and, accordingly, include amounts that are based
on management's best estimates and judgments. The financial statements include
estimates for the value of the capital assets (infrastructure), depreciation expense, the fair
value of investments, the amounts reported for the net pension liability and related items
(Note 8), the amounts reported for the net pension liability, net OPEB liability and related
items (Note 12), and claims payable (Note 6). Accordingly, actual results could differ from
the estimates.
r. New Accounting Pronouncement—GASB 75
In June 2015, the GASB issued Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for
Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. The Statement establishes new
accounting and financial reporting for OPEB provided to the employees of state and local
governments. Statement No. 75 replaces the requirements of Statements No. 45,
Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other
Than Pensions, as amended, and No. 57, OPEB Measurements by Agent Employers and
Agent Multiple-Employer Plans, for OPEB.
GASB Statement No. 75 is effective for periods beginning after June 15, 2017 and was
implemented by the City for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2018.

various investments.
Deposits
At June 30, 2018, the carrying amount of the deposits was $26,364,219, and the bank balance
was$28,382,756. The$2,018,537 difference represents outstanding checks, deposits in transit
and other reconciling items.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations
to secure an Entity's deposits by pledging government securities with a value of 110% of an
Entity's deposits. California law also allows financial institutions to secure deposits by pledging
first trust deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of total deposits. The City Treasurer
may waive the collateral requirement for deposits that are fully insured up to $250,000 by the
FDIC. The collateral for deposits in federal and state chartered banks is held in safekeeping by
an authorized Agent of Depository recognized by the State of California Department of Banking.
• The collateral for deposits with savings and loan associations is generally held in safekeeping
by the Federal Home Loan Bank in San Francisco. California as an Agent of Depository. These
securities are physically held in an undivided pool for all California public agency depositors.
Under Government Code Section 53655, the placement of securities by a bank or savings and
loan association with an Agent of Depository has the effect of perfecting the security interest in
the name of the local governmental agency. Accordingly, all collateral held by
California Agents of Depository are considered to be held for, and in the name of, the local
governmental agency.

City investments include medium-term notes that are rated "A" or higher at time of purchase;
commercial paper that is rated "A-1" or the equivalent; money market mutual funds that are
rated "AAA"; and United States Government and Federal Agency securities (the quality of
United States Treasury securities is not analyzed since they are not deemed to have credit
risk).
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the
holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally
recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required,
when applicable, by the California Government Code, the City's investment policy, or debt
agreements, and the rating by Standard and Poor's, Fitch and Moody's as of year-end for each
investment type.

Custodial Credit Risk
The custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository
financial institution, a government will not be able to recover deposits or will not be able to
recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit
risk for the investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a
transaction, a government will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral
securities that are in the possession of an outside party.
As of June 30, 2018, none of the City's deposits or investments were exposed to custodial
credit risk.

Concentration of Credit Risk
The City's investment policy imposes restrictions on the percentage the City can invest in
certain types of investments, which the City is in compliance. As of June 30. 2018, in
accordance with GASB Statement No. 40, if the City has invested more than 10% of its total
investments in any one issuer then they are exposed to concentration of credit risk. The City is
not invested in any one issuer that is more than 10% of its total investments.
The City's Investment policy imposes the following restrictions on the maximum percentage it
can invest in a single type of investment.

Interest Rate Risk
The City's investment policy limits investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure
to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates. The City's investment policy states
that the City shall not invest in securities with maturities exceeding five years and the
weighted-average maturity of the City portfolio shall not exceed 540 days. The City has elected
to use the segmented time distribution method of disclosure for its interest rate risk.

Investment in California Asset Management Program
The California Asset Management Program (CAMP) is a public joint powers authority which
provides California Public Agencies with investment management services for surplus funds
and comprehensive investment management. accounting and arbitrage rebate calculation
services for proceeds of tax-exempt financings. The CAMP currently offers the Cash Reserve
Portfolio, a short-term investment portfolio, as a means for Public Agencies to invest these
funds. Public Agencies that invest in the Pool (Participants) purchase shares of beneficial
interest. Participants may also establish individual, professionally managed investment
accounts (Individual Portfolios) by separate agreement with the Investment Advisor.
Investments in the Pools and Individual Portfolios are made only in investments in which
Public Agencies generally are permitted by California statute. The CAMP may reject any
investment and may limit the size of a Participant's account. The Pool seeks to maintain, but
does not guarantee, a constant net asset value of$1.00 per share. A Participant may withdraw
funds from its Pool accounts at any time by check or wire transfers. Requests for same-day
wire transfers must be made by 11:00 a.m. that day. Fair value of the Pool is determined by
the fair value per share of the Pool's underlying portfolio
Investment in Riverside County Treasurer's Pooled Investment Fund
The City is a voluntary participant in the Riverside County Treasurer's Pooled Investment Fund
(Pooled Fund). The fair value of the City's investment in this pool is reported in the
accompanying financial statements at amounts based upon the City's pro-rata share of the fair
value that the Riverside County Treasurer's Office has provided for the entire Pooled Fund
(in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based
upon the accounting records that the Riverside County Treasurer's Office maintains, which are
recorded on an amortized cost basis.
Fair Value Measurements
The City categorizes its fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy established by
generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the relative inputs used to
measure the fair value of the investments. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted
quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest
priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).
The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described as follows:
Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical
assets in active markets that the City has the ability to access.
Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:
• Quoted prices for similar assets in active markets;
• Quoted prices for identical or similar assets in inactive markets;
• Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset;
• Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market
data by correlation or other means.
52
CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 2: Cash and Investments (Continued)
Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair
value measurement. Unobservable inputs reflect the City's own assumptions
about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset
(including assumptions about risk). Unobservable inputs are developed based on
the best information available in the circumstances and may include the City's
own data.
The asset's level within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to
the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of
observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The determination of what constitutes observable requires judgment by the City's
management. City management considers observable data to be that market data which is
readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable, and verifiable, not proprietary, and
provided by multiple independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.
The categorization of an investment within the hierarchy is based upon the relative observability
of the inputs to its fair value measurement and does not necessarily correspond to City
management's perceived risk of that investment.
The methods described may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net
realizable value or reflective of future fair values. The use of different methodologies or
assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a
different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
When available, quoted prices are used to determine fair value. When quoted prices in active
markets are available, investments are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
When quoted prices in active markets are not available, fair values are based on evaluated
prices received by City's asset manager from third party service provider.
The following is a description of the recurring valuation methods and assumptions used by the
City to estimate the fair value of its investments.
For a large portion of the City's portfolio,the City's custodian applies their leveling methodology
across all securities in a specific sector (i.e. U.S. Government Sponsored
Agency Securities). Inputs to their pricing models are based on observable market inputs in
active markets.
The Successor Agency Former RDA's investment in City bonds is not tradable and is
categorized in Level 3. When valuing Level 3 securities, the inputs or methodology are not
necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. Changes in
valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the disclosure
hierarchy.

On August 8, 2006, the City Palm Desert issued $3,165,000 of Limited Obligation Bonds. The
proceeds of the Bonds were used to finance the construction of the utility undergrounding and
pay the cost of issuance. The debt service on the bonds is to be paid by assessments secured
on the property tax rolls of those properties benefiting from the improvements. Bond maturities
began September 2, 2007, and continue annually through 2036. The interest rates of the bonds
range from 3.85% to 5.15%. The City of Palm Desert is the only bondholder on record for the
bonds and reports a receivable in the general fund that corresponds to the outstanding principal
on the bonds.As of June 30, 2018, the receivable balance was $1,368,000.
The City entered into several individual loan agreements with residents of the Highlands Utility
Undergrounding Assessment District No. 04-01. The loans were issued by the City to pay off
the principal of the respective properties assessment. In turn, the residents agreed to pay to
the City the full cost of the loan amount plus any accrued interest at a rate of 5.35%. The full
amount of the loan along with all accrued interest is due and payable at the earliest of
September 2, 2036 or any change in ownership of the property. As of June 30, 2018, the total
receivable from the Highlands Deferral Loan Program was$14,978.
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code 34176(b), the housing assets of the former RDA have
been transferred to the Housing Asset Fund as the successor housing entity. The Housing
Asset Fund has a loan receivable for the construction of a multi-family affordable housing
development dated June 14, 2001, with a balance of $6,419,855 due from the Palm Desert
Development Company. The loan is secured by a Deed of Trust with assignment to property,
rent and fixtures on the housing development located in Palm Desert. Interest is earned and
due annually at a rate of 1% per annum from the date on which the final certificate of occupancy
is issued. Principal on the loan is based on the applicable agency's percentage of positive net
cash flow derived from the operations of the Development.
The Housing Asset Fund has $421 in home improvement loans and an additional notes
receivable of$1,200. Payments of interest and principal are due monthly on these loans.
The Community Development Block Grant Special Revenue Fund has $15,613 in a home
improvement loan.
On August 28, 2008 the City Council approved through resolution the Energy Independence
Program (EIP), which is supported by Assembly Bill AB811. The EIP program allowed the City
to create the funding mechanism to assist the residents and businesses entering into a loan
agreement with the City and providing the money for the borrowers to acquire and install energy
efficient improvements. Assembly Bill AB811 allows the City to lien the properties through
annual property tax assessments for a period not to exceed 20 years. To date,
279 residents and business owners entered into loan agreements with the City and have
completed their improvements through the EIP program, as of June 30, 2018, 105 loans have
been repaid. The loans are payable in two annual installments for a period of 5 years to

Special Assessment Debt with Government Commitment
Highlands Undergrounding Assessment District No. 04-01, Limited Obligation Improvement
Bonds, Series 2006
On August 8, 2006, the City Palm Desert issued $3,165,000 of Limited Obligation Bonds. The
proceeds of the Bonds were used to finance the construction of the utility undergrounding and
pay the cost of issuance. The debt service on the bonds is to be paid by assessments secured
on the property tax rolls of those properties benefiting from the improvements. In the event that
assessment collections are insufficient to pay the debt service, the City has a potential
obligation to provide additional funds to pay the debt service, therefore these bonds are
reported as special assessment debt with government commitment. Bond maturities begin
September 2, 2007, and continue annually through 2036. The interest rates of the bonds range
from 3.85% to 5.15%. The City of Palm Desert is the only bondholder on record of the bonds
and the City does not own the constructed assets.

Note 7: Deferred Compensation Plan
The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with
Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The plan, available to all City employees, permits them to
defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to
employees until termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency. Pursuant to
changes in August 1996, of IRC Section 457, in January 1997, the City established a trust in
which all assets held by Nationwide Retirement Solutions, Inc. (NRS) and ICMA Retirement
Corporation (ICMA) were placed. The City does not have fiduciary responsibility for the plan
assets held by NRS and ICMA. The assets, all property and rights purchased with such
amounts and all income attributable to such amounts are held in trust for the exclusive benefit
of the participants and the beneficiaries. The assets are no longer the property of the City, and
as such, are no longer subject to the claims of the City's general creditors. As a result, the
assets in the amount of$15,438,281 held by NRS and ICMA of the 457 Plan are not reflected
in the City's financial statements.
Note 8: Pension Plan
a. General Information about the Pension Plan:
Plan Description
All qualified permanent and probationary employees are eligible to participate in the City's
Miscellaneous Plan, agent multiple-employer defined benefit pension plans administered
by the California Public Employees' Retirement System (CaIPERS), which acts as a
common investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers.
Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute and City resolution.
CaIPERS issues publicly available reports that include a full description of the pension plan
regarding benefit provisions, assumptions and membership information that can be found
on the CaIPERS website.
Benefits Provided
CaIPERS provides service retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living
adjustments and death benefits to plan members, who must be public employees and
beneficiaries. Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time
employment. Members with five years of total service are eligible to retire at age 50 with
statutorily reduced benefits. All members are eligible for non-duty disability benefits after
10 years of service. The death benefit is one of the following: the Basic Death Benefit, the
1957 Survivor Benefit, or the Optional Settlement 2W Death Benefit. The cost of living
adjustments for the plan are applied as specified by the Public Employees' Retirement
Law.
The Plan's provisions and benefits in effect at June 30, 2018, are summarized as follows:
Prior to On or after
Hire date January 1, 2013 January 1, 2013

Employees Covered
At June 30, 2018, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms for all Plans:
Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 149
Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 75
Active employees 111
Total 335
Contributions
Section 20814(c) of the California Public Employees' Retirement Law requires that the
employer contribution rates for all public employers be determined on an annual basis by
the actuary and shall be effective on the July 1 following notice of a change in the rate.
Funding contributions for both Plans are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of
June 30 by CaIPERS. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary
to finance the costs of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional
amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability. The City is required to contribute the
difference between the actuarially determined rate and the contribution rate of employees.
b. Net Pension Liability
The City's net pension liability for the Plan is measured as the total pension liability, less
the pension plan's fiduciary net position. The net pension liability of Plan is measured as
of June 30, 2017, using an annual actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2016 rolled forward to
June 30, 2017 using standard update procedures. A summary of principal assumptions
and methods used to determine the net pension liability is shown below.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liabilities in the June 30, 2016 actuarial valuations were determined using
the following actuarial assumptions:
Valuation date June 30, 2016
Measurement date June 30, 2017
Actuarial cost method Entry age normal
Actuarial assumptions:
Discount rate 7.15%
Inflation 2.75%
Payroll Growth 3.00%
Projected Salary Increase Vanes by Entry Age and Service
Investment Rate of Return 7.50 Net of Pension Plan Investment and Administrative
Expenses; includes Inflation
Mortality rate table * Derived using CalPERS' membership data
for all funds
All other actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2016 valuation were based on the
results of an actuarial experience study for the period from 1997 to 2011, including updates
to salary increase, mortality and retirement rates. The Experience Study report can be
obtained at the CaIPERS website under Forms and Publications.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 8: Pension Plan (Continued)
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.15% for the Plan. To
determine whether the municipal bond rate should be used in the calculation of a discount
rate for the plan, CalPERS stress tested plans that would most likely result in a discount
rate that would be different from the actuarially assumed discount rate. Based on the
testing of the Plans, the tests revealed the assets would not run out. Therefore, the current
7.15% discount rate is appropriate and the use of the municipal bond rate calculation is not
deemed necessary. The long term expected discount rate of 7.15% is applied to all plans
in the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF). The stress test results are presented in
a detailed report called "GASB Crossover Testing Report" that can be obtained from the
CaIPERS website under the GASB 68 section.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using
a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of
return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are
developed for each major asset class.
In determining the long-term expected rate of return, CaIPERS took into account both
short-term and long-term market return expectations as well as the expected pension fund
cash flows. Such cash flows were developed assuming that both members and employers
will make their required contributions on time and as scheduled in all future years. Using
historical returns of all the funds' asset classes, expected compound (geometric) returns
were calculated over the short-term (first 10 years) and the long-term (11-60 years) using
a building-block approach. Using the expected nominal returns for both short-term and
long-term, the present value of benefits was calculated for each fund. The expected rate
of return was set by calculating the single equivalent expected return that arrived at the
same present value of benefits for cash flows as the one calculated using both short-term
and long-term returns. The expected rate of return was then set equivalent to the single
equivalent rate calculated above and rounded down to the nearest one quarter of one
percent.
The table below reflects the long-term expected real rate of return by asset class. The rate
of return was calculated using the capital market assumptions applied to determine the
discount rate and asset allocation. The target allocation shown was adopted by the
CalPERS Board effective on July 1, 2014.

Note 9: Fund Balances (Continued)
The fund balances reported on the fund statements now consist of the following categories:
Nonspendable - This classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are
either(a) not in spendable form or(b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted - This classification includes amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes
stipulated by constitution, external resource providers or through enabling legislation.
Committed - This classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific
purposes determined by a formal action of the City Council. The City considers the adoption of
a resolution to institute a formal action of City Council for the purpose of establishing, modifying
or rescinding committed fund balances.
Assigned - This classification includes amounts to be used by the government for specific
purposes but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. This includes
amounts that are assigned through adoption of a resolution by City Council. The Council may
delegate the ability of an employee or committee to assign uses of specific funds, for specific
purposes. Such delegation of authority occurred on September 27th, 2018 and will be in effect
for future fiscal years.
Unassigned - This classification includes the residual balance for the government's general
fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in other classifications. In other funds,
the unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting from
overspending for specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed or
assigned.
When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund
balances are available, the City's policy is to apply restricted fund balance first.
When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which committed, assigned or unassigned
fund balances are available, the City's policy is to apply committed fund balance first, then
assigned fund balance, and finally unassigned fund balance.
Note 10: Risk Management
a. Description of Self-Insurance Pool Pursuant to Joint Power Agreement
The City of Palm Desert is a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority
(Authority). The Authority is composed of 116 California public entities and is organized
under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California Government
Code §6500 et seq. The purpose of the Authority is to arrange and administer programs
for the pooling of self-insured losses, to purchase excess insurance or reinsurance, and to
arrange for group purchased insurance for property and other lines of coverage. The
Authority began covering claims of its members in 1978. Each member government has
an elected official as its representative on the Board of Directors which operates through a
nine-member Executive Committee.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
JUNE 30, 2018
Note 10: Risk Management (Continued)
b. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority
Each member pays an annual contribution at the beginning of the coverage period. A
retrospective adjustment is then conducted annually thereafter, for coverage years
2012-13 and prior. Coverage years 2013-14 and forward are not subject to routine annual
retrospective adjustment. The total funding requirement for self-insurance programs is
based on an actuarial analysis. Costs are allocated to individual agencies based on payroll
and claims history, relative to other members of the risk-sharing pool.
Primary Liability Program
In the liability program, claims are pooled separately between police and general
government exposures. (1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll
of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each member, which
establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses within the
formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $30,000 for each
occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs within the
first layer. (3)The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from$30,000 to$750,000
for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's total incurred costs
within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs from S750,000 to $50 million, are distributed
based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second loss layers.
The overall coverage limit for each member, including all layers of coverage, is
$50 million per occurrence. Costs of covered claim for subsidence losses have a
sub-limit of$40 million per occurrence.
Workers' Compensation
The City of Palm Desert also participates in the workers' compensation pool administered
by the Authority. In the workers' compensation program claims are pooled separately
between public safety (police and fire) and general government exposures. (1) The payroll
of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility
factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and
the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2)The first layer of losses includes incurred
costs up to $50,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool's
total incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred
costs from $50,000 to $100,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of
the pool's total incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs in excess from
$100,000 to statutory limits are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within
the first and second loss layers.
For 2017-18, the Authority's pooled retention is$2 million per occurrence, with reinsurance
to statutory limits under California Workers' Compensation Law.
Employer's Liability losses are pooled among members to $2 million. Coverage from
$2 million to$5 million is purchased as part of a reinsurance policy, and Employer's Liability
losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members.

c. Purchased Insurance
Property Insurance
The City of Palm Desert participates in the all-risk property protection program of the
Authority. This insurance protection is underwritten by several insurance companies. The
City of Palm Desert's property is currently insured according to a schedule of covered
property submitted by the City of Palm Desert to the Authority. The City of Palm Desert's
property currently has all-risk property insurance protection in the amount of$243,753,167.
There is a$10,000 deductible per occurrence except for non-emergency vehicle insurance,
which has a$2,500 deductible.
Crime Insurance
The City of Palm Desert purchases crime insurance coverage in the amount of
$10,000,000 with a $2,500 deductible. The fidelity coverage is provided through the
Authority.
Special Event Tenant User Liability Insurance
The City or Palm Desert further protects against liability damages by requiring tenant users
of certain property to purchase low-cost tenant user liability insurance for certain activities
on agency property. The insurance premium is paid by the tenant user and is paid to the
City of Palm Desert according to a schedule. The City of Palm Desert then pays for the
insurance. The insurance is facilitated by the Authority.
d. Adequacy of Protection
During the past three fiscal years, none of the above programs of protection experienced
settlements or judgments that exceeded pooled or insured coverage. There were no
significant reductions in pooled or insured liability coverage in the fiscal year
2017-18.

Note 16: Dissolution of California Redevelopment Agencies and Wind-Down by Successor
Agencies
Pursuant to AB X1 26 (adopted by the California Legislature in June 2011) and the State
Supreme Court's decision in California Redevelopment Association. et al. v.Ana Matosantos.
et al., 53 Cal. 4th 231 (2011), all redevelopment agencies in the State were dissolved as of
February 1, 2012, and a successor agency was established for each former redevelopment
agency to wind-down the affairs of its former redevelopment agency. Certain actions of each
successor agency must first be approved by its oversight board, composed of seven-members
representing taxing entities.
On August 25, 2011, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2011-76, pursuant to Health and
Safety Code ("HSC") Section 34172, electing for the City to serve as the successor agency
(`SARDA")to the former Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency(the"Dissolved RDA"). Although
the Board of Directors of the SARDA is comprised of the same individuals as the City Council,
HSC Section 34173(g) expressly affirms that the SARDA is a separate public entity from the
City,and that the liabilities of the Dissolved RDA shall not be transferred to the City nor shall
the assets of the Dissolved RDA become assets of the City.
The City elected on February 9, 2012 to have the Palm Desert Housing Authority serve as the
Housing Successor. Under HSC Section 34176, the Housing Successor assumed the
housing functions of the Dissolved RDA. The Housing Authority (as the Housing Successor)
submitted to the State Department of Finance ('DOF") a list of housing assets to be transferred
by the SARDA to the Housing Successor. On August 31, 2012, the DOF issued a letter
indicating that the DOF did not have any objection to such housing asset list.
The housing assets(per the housing asset list), obligations, and activities of the Dissolved RDA
were transferred to the Housing Successor and are reported in the Housing Asset Fund
beginning in fiscal year 2011-2012. However, outstanding bonds ("Housing Bonds"), secured
by a pledge of moneys which would have been deposited into the Dissolved RDA's low and
moderate income housing fund (known as the "Housing Set Aside"), remain as the SARDA's
enforceable obligations. See also "Stipulated Judgment" below. All other assets, obligations,
and activities of the Dissolved RDA have been transferred and are reported in a fiduciary fund
(private-purpose trust fund) in the financial statements of the City.
Upon dissolution of the Dissolved RDA, the County Auditor-Controller ("CAC") is charged
with establishing a Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund (the"RPTTF")for the SARDA and
depositing into the RPTTF the amount of property taxes that would have been redevelopment
property tax increment had the Dissolved RDA not been dissolved.

Note 16: Dissolution of California Redevelopment Agencies and Wind-Down by Successor
Agencies (Continued)
The SARDA is required to prepare an annual recognized obligation payment schedule
(the "ROPS") approved by the oversight board setting forth the amounts due for enforceable
obligations from each July 1 through the following June 30. The ROPS is submitted to the CAC
and the DOF for consideration. The CAC only makes payments to the SARDA from the RPTTF
based on the ROPS amount approved by the DOF.
SARDA was required to conduct due diligence reviews of both the low and moderate income
housing fund and all other funds by October 15, 2012 and January 15, 2013, respectively, to
compute the funds (cash) which were not needed by the SARDA to be retained to pay for
existing enforceable obligations or were otherwise restricted, and therefore, must be remitted
to the CAC. The SARDA paid a total amount of $40,988,399 to the CAC based on the due
diligence reviews per the DOF's determination.
The DOF issued a Finding of Completion on May 15, 2013 after SARDA made the payments
required as a result of the due diligence reviews. The Finding of Completion allows the
placement of loan agreements between the Dissolved RDA and the City(which were previously
voided by operation of law upon the Dissolved RDA's dissolution) on the ROPS. On
February 23, 2015, the Oversight Board approved Resolution OB-114, making the finding to
reestablish the City loans as enforceable obligations of the SARDA. DOF subsequently
approved this action on April 10, 2015. When the repayments begin, 20% of each repayment
amount will be allocated to the Housing Asset Fund.At June 30, 2018, the long-term advances
totaled $22,655,000(the"Advances"). In the financial statements$9,236,000 is reported in the
General Fund and $13,419,000 is reported in Other Governmental Funds. An offset of 20%
has been reported as due to other funds in the respective funds totaling $4,531,000, which is
based on principal only. See further discussion under Note 17.
Pursuant to HSC Section 34191.4(b), unpaid interest on the remaining principal amount of the
Advances shall be calculated at a simple rate of 3%. No interest on the Advances has been
paid since December 31, 2010. Based on the 3% simple rate, the unpaid accrued interest on
the Advances as of June 30, 2018 totaled $5,097,375.
The State Controller of the State of California was directed to review the propriety of any
transfers of assets between the Dissolved RDA and other public bodies that occurred after
January 1, 2011. The State Controller completed its review on March 14, 2013 and did not
identify any unallowable transfers of assets that occurred between the Dissolved RDA and the
City or other public agencies.
The SARDA's use and disposition of all properties held (Long Range Property Management
Plan ("LRPMP"),was approved by the DOF on June 2, 2014. The LRPMP allowed the SARDA
to transfer property used for government purposes with a cost basis of$6,390,263 to the City.
Stipulated Judgment
On May 15, 1991, the Riverside County Superior Court entered a final judgment incorporating
the terms of a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment ("Original Stipulation") in Case No. 51124 and
a Stipulation for Entry of Judgment pursuant to Settlement Agreement and Mutual Release
("Settlement Agreement") in Case No. 51124, among the Dissolved RDA,the City,the Western
Center on Law and Poverty, Inc., California Rural Legal Assistance, and others. On June 18,
1997 and on September 20, 2002, the Riverside County Superior Court amended the
judgment, incorporating Stipulations Amending Stipulation for Entry of Judgment.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Note 16: Dissolution of California Redevelopment Agencies and Wind-Down by Successor

The judgment, as amended (the "Judgment"), generally required the Dissolved RDA to use
20% of its tax increment revenues, and additional tax increment revenues if necessary, to
develop, rehabilitate, or otherwise financially assist affordable housing units and to meet certain
housing needs of the City. Before dissolution. the Dissolved RDA used its Low and Moderate
Housing Set-Aside to fulfill its obligations under the Judgment (including the payment of debt
service on the Housing Bonds issued to finance and refinance affordable housing projects that
satisfied the requirements of both the Judgment and the relevant Redevelopment Law
provisions).
While the low and moderate income housing fund has been eliminated upon the dissolution
of the Dissolved RDA and the requirement to deposit the Housing Set-Aside into such fund,
the SARDA continues to recognize the Judgment as its enforceable obligation. On its ROPS,
the SARDA has included line items designated as "Stipulation Judgment Case No. 51124."
listing the amounts necessary to fulfill its obligations under the Judgment (after taking into
account the amounts already listed for the repayment of the Housing Bonds). While the DOF
originally approved such line items, the DOF changed its position beginning with ROPS
14-15A (i.e., covering the period commencing July 1, 2014).
On August 14, 2014, the SARDA filed an action, SARDA to the Palm Desert Redevelopment
Agency v. Michael Cohen, Sacramento Superior Court Case No. 34-2014-00167698
(the "Successor Agency Lawsuit"), seeking to compel the DOF to permit payment of the
affordable housing obligations mandated by the Judgment. Subsequently, in view of the fact
that there were similar cases pending in the California Court of Appeal (Third District), the
SARDA voluntarily dismissed its action without prejudice pending resolution of those other
cases. To date, none of the other cases has resulted in a decision that would compel the DOF
to permit payment of the obligations under the Judgment as an enforceable obligation.
Note 17: Successor Agency Disclosures
The assets and liabilities of the Dissolved RDA (except for those transferred to the Housing
Successor and reported in the Housing Asset Fund) have been transferred to the SARDA. The

Mortality Mortality rates used were those published by CaIPERS, adjusted
to back out 20 years of Scale BB to central year 2008, then
projected using the MacLeod Watts Scale 2017 applied
generationally.
Change Since the Prior Valuation:

NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
YEAR ENDED JUNE 30, 2018
BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
The City used the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reported in the financial
statements:
1. Before the beginning of the fiscal year, the City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed
budget for the year commencing the following July 1.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. The budget is subsequently adopted through passage of a resolution.
4. Expenditures for the General Fund cannot exceed amounts budgeted at the departmental level,
which is the legal level of control.
For other funds, expenditures cannot exceed the total amount budgeted for each fund, which is the
legal level of control. The City Manager is authorized to transfer appropriations (without council
approval) between an object of a General Fund Department. The City Council approves all other
changes. Annual appropriation amounts lapse at year-end.
5. Encumbrances and continuing appropriations are rebudgeted as of July 1, by Council action.
6. Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for all governmental funds except for certain special revenue funds
and capital projects funds, which adopt project length budgets and debt service funds that are not
budgeted as effective budgetary control is achieved through debt indenture provisions. The
following funds did not have legally adopted budgets during the current fiscal year:
