Honorable Mayor, Members of the City Council
and Citizens of the City of Albertville
City of Albertville, Minnesota
Minnesota statutes require the City to issue an annual report on its financial position and activity,
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), and audited in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by a firm of licensed certified public
accountants, or the Office of the State Auditor. Pursuant to that requirement, we hereby issue the
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the City of Albertville for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2020.
This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City of
Albertville. Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the
information contained in this report, based upon a comprehensive framework of internal control
standards that it has established for this purpose. 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. As management,
we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and
reliable in all material respects.
The City of Albertville's financial statements have been audited by the public accounting firm of
Abdo, Eick& Meyers, LLP. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable
assurance that the financial statements of the City of Albertville for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2020, are free of any material misstatements. Included within this report, Abdo,
Eick & Meyers, LLP. has issued an unqualified opinion on the City of Albertville's financial
statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.
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. This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in
conjunction with it.
Profile of the City of Albertville
The City of Albertville is located in the east central portion of Minnesota, approximately 35 miles
northwest of the Twin Cities, and approximately halfway between the metropolitan areas of
Minneapolis/St. Paul and St. Cloud. The City of Albertville is located in the northeastern portion
of Wright County, along the Interstate 94 corridor.
The City covers 4.56 square miles. The current population is approximately 7,519.
The City of Albertville operates under the council/administrator form of government. The
governing body consists of the Mayor and four Council members, elected at large and on a non-
partisan basis. The Mayor is elected to a two-year term and four Council Members are elected to
a four-year term, with elections held in each even-numbered year. Not more than two Council
member's terms expire in any one year.
9
The Mayor and Council appoint a full-time City Administrator, who is responsible for overall
supervision of City operations. The City Council is responsible for, among other things, passing
ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, hiring the City Administrator, other staff
and appointing consultants.
The City provides its residents and businesses with a full range of services, including fire
protection, law enforcement, public works, building inspection, planning and code enforcement,
parks/trail improvements and maintenance, curbside recycling and other general activities. The
City contracts with the Wright County Sheriff's Department for 28-hour law enforcement. In
addition, the City offers the following services to residents: water, sewer, storm drainage, and
recycling, which are operated as enterprises. The City also partners with neighboring
communities and the county to provide public transit, library, and senior center services. In
addition, the governing body is financially accountable for the Economic Development Authority
and therefore, these activities are included in the reporting entity.
Relevant Financial Policies
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City's financial planning and control.
Developing the budget begins annually in June when the Finance Director prepares projected
revenues and expenses for the next year's draft budget. Upon review and revisions by the
Finance Director and Administrator, the draft budget is reviewed by the Department Heads.
Department budget requests are compiled by the Finance Director and reviewed by both the
Finance Director and Administrator. Integral to the budget process is a staff meeting to review
the draft budget, which is then presented to the City Council. City Council and staff work on the
budget over the course of two to three budget workshops. Following Council direction and public
input, the preliminary budget is updated and brought back for Council approval. Council adopts
the preliminary budget in September and the Final Budget is adopted in December of each year.
If a need arises for a significant budget amendment during the year, it is brought to City Council
for approval.
Also, available within, are notes pertaining to basic financial statements for information on the
Joint Powers Water Board (the City's water operations, operated in conjunction with the cities of
St. Michael and Hanover).
Economic Condition and Outlook
Based on permit activity, the local economy is strong and continues to grow. A total of 670
building permits were issued in 2020 with a total valuation of$21,226,443. The number of new
housing units in 2020 was 36, with an average valuation of approximately$283,365 per home.
The State of Minnesota is constructing six lanes of freeway to the City of Albertville, as well as,
improving the existing interchange access to the freeway at county state aid highways 37 and 19.
Another key financial factor affecting the City's financial outlook is the City's bond rating, which
has increased two times since 2002 and is currently an AA3.
The area school districts are highly desirable and driving new residential interest to the area.
In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19)surfaced. The spread of COVID-19
around the world in the first quarter of 2020 has caused significant volatility in U.S. and
international markets. There is significant uncertainty around the breadth and duration of
business disruptions related to COVID-19, as well as its impact on the U.S. and international
economies and, as such, the Organization is unable to determine if it will have a material impact
to its operations.
10
Commercial, Industrial and Retail
The City of Albertville's commercial activity remains steady and it is a priority of the City to
stimulate new commercial and industrial development. Currently, there are a number of
commercial and industrial projects underway.
Major Initiatives
Maintenance and preservation of the City infrastructure and facilities is a priority for the City. In
2020, the City completed multiple infrastructure improvements related to streets, utilities, trails
and parks.
The City has actively pursued regional transportation and interstate improvements through the I-
94 Coalition, a consortium of cities and businesses. Through the State's Corridors for Commerce
legislation, multiple projects benefiting Interstate 94 have been successfully completed, and in
2019 the State began a project to build 6-lanes of freeway between Highway 241 in St. Michael
and CSAH 19 in Albertville. This project will benefit Albertville by extending the 6-lanes to the
City and by improving the City's two interstate interchanges and improving access to the
interstate. The Interstate project is approximately$75 million (+/-)and is funded by the State.
Wright County recently completed reconstruction and expansion of County State Aid Highways
19 and 38 through Albertville. The two improved corridors will benefit the areas housing and
commercial opportunities.
The City recently completed improvements to its wastewater treatment plant and facility.
Long-term Financial Planning
The City of Albertville recognizes the importance of maintaining an appropriate level of fund
balance. Sound fiscal management of Albertville's general fund operation budget is made more
secure by establishing City goals regarding the size and use of the annual general fund balances.
This policy provides two goals and measures for determining the appropriate fund balance. The
security factor must be met before the dependence factor can be applied. The City of Albertville
will strive to meet these goals.
1. Security. Ensure that, at NO time during budget preparation, the amounts remaining in
current year-end fund balance (defined as the prior year's known fund balance amount
less the amount designated for application to the current year budget) be allowed to be
less than 35% of the next year's planned budget for the General Fund as a minimum. As
economic conditions warrant, an amount larger than this shall be maintained. This will be
applied to cash flow, revenue reserves and insurance, and liability needs, or be available
in the time of emergencies.
If the current fund balance meets or exceeds the 35%, the intent is to increase this level
to 50% of next year's expenditures. If the fund balance level falls below the 35% due to
unexpected expenses, a replenishment plan will be developed.
2. Dependence. In building the next year's budget, the percentage of total annual budget
financing that can come from fund balances will not exceed 5% of the planned budget.
Property Taxes
To sustain or expand City services, while keeping property taxes stable, the Council has diligently
strived to maintain a level tax rate. The property tax levy for the year divided by the city-wide total
net tax capacity equals the tax rate.
11
Independent Audit
The financial statements were audited by Abdo, Eick & Meyers, LLP, Certified Public
Accountants, and their opinion has been included in this report. The scope of the audit included
the basic financial statements of the City for the year ended December 31, 2020. Their audit was
made in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America.
The scope of the audit was sufficient to satisfy state and federal requirements. The auditors'
opinion on the City's financial statements indicates that the auditors' examination has disclosed
no conditions which cause them to believe that the financial statements are not fairly stated, in all
material respects.
Certificate of Achievement
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded
a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City for its CAFR for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2019. This is the ninth consecutive year the City has received
this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must
publish an easily readable and efficiently organized CAFR, whose contents conforms to program
standards. Such reports must satisfy both accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current CAFR
continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement's requirements and we are again submitting it to
the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.
Acknowledgments
I would like to commend Finance Director Lannes and the entire city staff for their hard work and
dedication. I would like to recognize the CPA firm Abdo, Eick& Meyers, LLP for their
professional assistance. Finally, thank you to the Mayor and members of the City Council for
your continued interest and support in planning and conducting the financial operations of the City
in a very responsible and professional manner.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Honorable Mayor and City Council
City of Albertville, Minnesota
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Albertville, Minnesota (the City), as of and for the
year ended December 31, 2020, 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 of 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 City'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 City'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 financial statement presentation.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
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, each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund
information of the City as of December 31, 2020, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable,
cash flows thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General fund for the year then ended in conformity
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and
Analysis starting on page 23 and the Schedules of Employer's Share of the Net Pension Liability, the Schedules of
Employer's Contributions, the related note disclosures, the Schedule of Changes in Net Pension Liability (Asset) and
Related Ratios starting on page 92 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 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 fund financial statements, schedules, and statistical section 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. Such 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 fund financial statements and
schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory section and statistical section have 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.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated April 19, 2021, on our
consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions
of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe
the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not
to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That
report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the
City's internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the City of Albertville, Minnesota, (the City), we offer readers of the City's financial statements this
narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
Financial Highlights
• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources
at the close of the most recent fiscal year by$52,194,773 (net position). Of this amount, $17,698,606
(unrestricted net position) may be used to meet the City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
• The City's total net position increased $1,969,103. This increase is attributable to the governmental activities
increasing $659,713 due to increased operating revenues such as permit revenue, charges for services, capital,
and grant revenues.
• As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances
of$10,410,583, a decrease of$175,919 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 65.1 percent of this total
amount, $6,775,571 is available for spending at the City's discretion but a portion has been assigned for specific
purposes.
• At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance for the General fund was $3,200,223, or
83.5 percent of total General fund 2020 expenditures.
• The City's total debt decreased 11.0 percent during the current fiscal year.
23
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements. The City's
basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial
statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplemental information in addition
to the basic financial statements themselves.
The financial statements also include notes that explain some of the information in the financial statements and provide
more detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of combining and individual fund financial statements and
schedules which further explain and support the information in the financial statements. Figure 1 shows how the required
parts of this annual report are arranged and relate to one another. In addition to these required elements, we have
included a section with combining and individual fund financial statements and schedules that provide details about non-
major governmental funds, which are added together and presented in single columns in the basic financial statements.

Government-wide Financial Statements. The Government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers
with a broad overview of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents information on all of the City's assets and deferred outflows of resources, and
liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or
decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or
deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net position changed during the most recent fiscal
year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless
of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will
only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).
25
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes
and intergovernmental revenue (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a
significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of
the City include general government, public safety, public works, culture and recreation, economic development and
interest on long-term debt. The business-type activities of the City include sewer, water, storm water and recycling.
The government-wide financial statements start on page 37 of this report.
Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that
have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund
accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can
be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as
governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial
statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as
well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in
evaluating a government's near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to
compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities
in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact by the
government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund
statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison
between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains 11 individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund
balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances for the
General fund, Debt Service and Capital Outlay Reserve -all of which are considered to be major funds. Data from the
other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-
major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements orschedules elsewhere in this report.
The City adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been
provided for the General fund to demonstrate compliance with this budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements start on page 42 of this report.
Proprietary Funds. The City maintains one type of proprietary fund. Enterprise funds are used to report the same
functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses enterprise
funds to account for its sewer, water storm water and recycling operations.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only in more detail.
The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for each of the enterprise funds.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements start on page 50 of this report.
Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the City.
Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are
not available to support the City's own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for
proprietary funds.

Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of
the City, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities by $52,194,773 at the close of the most recent
fiscal year.
By far, the largest portion of the City's net position (56.3 percent) reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land,
buildings, machinery and equipment), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City
uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending.
Although the City's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources
needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to
liquidate these liabilities.

Financial Analysis of the Government's Funds
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal
requirements.
Governmental Funds: The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows
and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In
particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for
spending at the end of the fiscal year.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds had combined ending fund balances of
$10,410,583, a decrease of$175,919 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 65.1 percent of this total amount,
$6,775,571, constitutes assigned and unassigned fund balance, which is available for spending at the City's discretion but
assigned for specific purposes. The remainder of fund balance $3,478,869 is not available for new spending because it is
either 1) nonspendable $90,389 or 2) restricted $3,388,480. There is also $156,143 committed for specific purposes.
The General fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current year, the fund balance of the General
fund was $3,290,612. The fund balance of the City's General fund increased $672,687 during the current fiscal year. This
increase is attributable to increased intergovernmental revenues.
The Debt Service fund balance decreased $9,420 from the prior year for an ending fund balance of$3,247,679. The City
levies 105% of the following years debt service payment.
The Capital Outlay Reserve fund balance decreased $888,382, for an ending fund balance of$3,965,154. The City
budgets annually for future capital projects and purchases and current projects utilized fund balance.
Proprietary Funds: The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide
financial statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net position of the enterprise funds at the end of the year amounted to $10,545,577. The total increase in net
position for the funds was $1,309,390. Other factors concerning the finances of these funds have already been addressed
in the discussion of the City's business-type activities.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The City's General fund budget was not amended during the year. The budget called for a decreased in fund balance of
$12,463. The actual activity of the General fund resulted in an increase of$672,687. The general fund received more
revenues than budgeted in all areas.
Revenues were over budget by $1,216,710. All revenue categories were over budget. Intergovernmental and charges for
services revenue sources had the largest positive variances of$611,685 and $337,827, respectively. This increase is
attributable to CARES Act funding, charges for services (buildings, fire calls, licenses and permits), fire aid, and lease
payments.
Expenditures were over budget by$531,560. General government was over budget by $72,350 and culture and
recreation was over budget by $311,244.
31
Capital Asset and Debt Administration
Capital Assets: The City's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of
December 31, 2020, amounts to $41,634,255 (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets
includes land, construction in progress, structures, improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, roads,
highways and bridges. The total decrease in the City's investment in capital assets for the current fiscal year was due to
depreciation.
Additional information on the City's capital assets can be found in Note 313 starting on page 71 of this report.

Long-term Debt: At the end of the current fiscal year, the City had total bonded debt outstanding of$12,411,633. This
amount consists of general obligation special assessment, general obligation revenue bonds and revenue bonds. While
many of these bonds have their own revenue streams, they are backed by the full faith and credit of the City.

The City's total debt decreased $1,531,092 during the current fiscal year. This decrease is attributable to regularly
scheduled debt payments.
Minnesota statutes limit the amount of net general obligation debt a City may issue to 3 percent of the market value of
taxable property within the City. Net debt is debt payable solely from ad valorem taxes. The City's applicable debt does
not exceed the limit set forth in statute.
Additional information on the City's long-term debt can be found in Note 3D starting on page 73 of this report.

Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates
Residential property values continue to increase from the previous years and neighborhoods continue to be very stable.
New housing starts remain steady and overall permit activity remains steady. Multi-family housing interest is strong.
Commercial property values have improved and commercial interest is strong.
Budgeted capital projects are generally targeted towards maintenance and preservation of the City's infrastructure.
Many transportation infrastructure projects are underway and nearing completion, including Interstate 94, County State
Highway 19, and County State Highway 38. These improvements will improve access to and from the interstate and
commercial properties.
State and/or Federal funds received due to the COVID-19 pandemic are expected to used towards economic
development and/or capital improvements.

Reconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures and
Changes in Fund Balances to the Statement of Activities
Governmental Funds
For the Year Ended December 31, 2020
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different because
Total Change Is Fund Balances $ (175,919)
Governmental funds do not report income or loss in a joint venture. (12,310)
Capital outlays are reported in governmental funds as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over the estimated useful lives as depreciation expense.
Capital outlays 1,788,401
Depreciation expense (1,538,163)
The issuance of long-term debt provides current financial resources to governmental funds,while
the repayment of principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental
funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report
the effect of premiums, discounts and similar items when debt is first issued,
whereas these amounts are amortized in the statement of activities.
Principal repayments 856,000
Amortization of loss on refunding and premium (31,506)
Interest on long-term debt in the statement of activities differs from the amount reported in the
governmental fund because interest is recognized as an expenditure in the funds when it is due,
and thus requires the use of current financial resources. In the statement of activities, however,
interest expense is recognized as the interest accrues, regardless of when it is due. 5,181
Long-term pension activity is not reported in governmental funds.
Pension expense 18,847
Pension revenue 54,424
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not require the use of current financial resources
and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in the governmental funds.
Compensated absences 23,271
Certain revenues are recognized as soon as they are earned. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting
certain revenues cannot be recognized until they are available to liquidate liabilities of the current period.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Albertville, Minnesota (the City) operates under the "Optional Plan A" form of government as defined in the
State of Minnesota statutes. Under this plan, the government of the City is directed by a City Council composed of an
elected Mayor and four elected City Council members. The City Council exercises legislative authority and determines all
matters of policy. The City Council appoints personnel responsible for the proper administration of all affairs relating to the
City. The City has considered all potential units for which it is financially accountable, and other organizations for which
the nature and significance of their relationship with the City are such that exclusion would cause the City's financial
statements to be misleading or incomplete. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) has set forth criteria
to be considered in determining financial accountability. These criteria include appointing a voting majority of an
organization's governing body, and (1) the ability of the primary government to impose its will on that organization or (2)
the potential for the organization to provide specific benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on the primary
government.
Blended Component Unit
The Albertville Economic Development Authority (EDA) is a legal separate entity created to carry out economic
development activities. The EDA is governed by five members, which consists of the City Council and the operational
responsibility for the EDA rests with the management of the City. The criterion that results in the EDA being reported as a
blended component unit include 1) the five board members are members of the City Council and 2) the operational
responsibility of the EDA rests with the management of the City. The EDA does not issue separate financial statements
and are included in the financial section of this report.
B. Government-wide and Fund 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 City. 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.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct 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.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly
benefit from goods, services or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not
properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds. Major individual
governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial
statements.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Financial Statement Presentation
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the
accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and
expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are
recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon
as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the
modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available.
Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to
pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected
within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. 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.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be
susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of special
assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the
current period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the
City.
Revenue resulting from exchange transactions, in which each party gives and receives essentially equal value, is
recorded on the accrual basis when the exchange takes place. On a modified accrual basis, revenue is recorded in the
year in which the resources are measurable and become available.
Non-exchange transactions, in which the City receives value without directly giving equal value in return, include property
taxes, grants, entitlement and donations. On an accrual basis, revenue from property taxes is recognized in the year for
which the tax is levied. Revenue from grants, entitlements and donations is recognized in the year in which all eligibility
requirements have been satisfied. Eligibility requirements include timing requirements, which specify the year when the
resources are required to be used or the year when use is first permitted, matching requirements, in which the City must
provide local resources to be used for a specified purpose, and expenditure requirements, in which the resources are
provided to the City on a reimbursement basis. On a modified accrual basis, revenue from non-exchange transactions
must also be available before it can be recognized.
Unearned revenue arises when assets are recognized before revenue recognition criteria have been satisfied. Grants
and entitlements received before eligibility requirements are met are also recorded as unearned revenue.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures.
Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the City, except those
required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Debt Service fund accounts for the accumulation of resources and payment of bond principal and interest on
long-term general obligation debt of governmental funds.
The Capital Outlay Reserve fund accounts for the accumulation of resources necessary to fund future capital
improvements and equipment purchases.

City of Albertville, Minnesota
Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
The Sewer fund accounts for the activities of the City's sewage collection utility.
The Water fund accounts for the activities of the City's water utility.
The Storm Water fund accounts for the activities of the City's storm drainage utility.
The Recycling fund accounts for the activities of the City's recycling operations.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Fiduciary Funds
Custodial funds are used to report fiduciary activities that are not required to be reported in pension (and other
employee benefit)trust funds, investment trust funds, or private-purpose trust funds. The City's Custodial fund
accounts for activities of St. Michael-Albertville Ice Arena, Albertville Lions, and Friendly City Days.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from government-wide financial statements.
Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the City's water and sewer functions and various other functions of
the City. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various
functions concerned.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and
expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary
fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City enterprise funds are charges to
customers for sales and services. 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 nonoperating revenues and expenses.

Balances
Deposits and Investments
The City's cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments
with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. The proprietary funds' portion in the
government-wide cash and temporary investments pool is considered to be cash and cash equivalents for purposes of the
statement of cash flows.
Cash balances from all funds are pooled and invested, to the extent available, in certificates of deposit and other
authorized investments. Earnings from such investments are allocated on the basis of applicable participation by each of
the funds.
The City may also invest idle funds as authorized by Minnesota statutes, as follows:
1. Direct obligations or obligations guaranteed by the United States or its agencies.
2. Shares of investment companies registered under the Federal Investment Company Act of 1940 and received the
highest credit rating, rated in one of the two highest rating categories by a statistical rating agency, and have a
final maturity of thirteen months or less.
3. General obligations of a state or local government with taxing powers rated "A" or better; revenue obligations
rated "AK or better.
4. General obligations of the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency rated "A" or better.
5. Obligation of a school district with an original maturity not exceeding 13 months and (i) rated in the highest
category by a national bond rating service or(ii) enrolled in the credit enhancement program pursuant to statute
section 126C.55.
6. Bankers' acceptances of United States banks eligible for purchase by the Federal Reserve System.
7. Commercial paper issued by United States banks corporations or their Canadian subsidiaries, of highest quality
category by at least two nationally recognized rating agencies, and maturing in 270 days or less.
8. Repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements and securities lending agreements with financial institutions
qualified as a "depository" by the government entity, with banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System
with capitalization exceeding $10,000,000, a primary reporting dealer in U.S. government securities to the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York, or certain Minnesota securities broker-dealers.
9. Guaranteed Investment Contracts (GIC's) issued or guaranteed by a United States commercial bank, a domestic
branch of a foreign bank, a United States insurance company, or its Canadian subsidiary, whose similar debt
obligations were rated in one of the top two rating categories by a nationally recognized rating agency.
Broker money market funds operate in accordance with appropriate state laws and regulations. The reported value of the
pool is the same as the fair value of the shares.
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted
accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1
inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level
3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs.
62
City of Albertville, Minnesota
Notes to the Financial Statements

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The City has the following recurring fair value measurements as of December 31, 2020:
• Brokered Certificates of Deposit of$5,062,885 are valued using quoted market prices (Level 2 inputs)
• Municipal Bonds of$3,004,488 are values using a matrix pricing model (Level 2 inputs)
The Minnesota Municipal Money Market Fund is regulated by Minnesota statutes and the Board of Directors of the
League of Minnesota Cities and is an external investment pool not registered with the Securities Exchange Commission
(SEC)that follows the regulatory rules of the SEC. In accordance with GASB Statement No. 79, the City's investment in
this pool is valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. There are no restrictions or limitations on
withdrawals from the 4M Liquid Asset Fund. Investments in the 4M Plus must be deposited for a minimum of 14 calendar
days. Withdrawals prior to the 14-day restriction period will be subject to a penalty equal to seven days interest on the
amount withdrawn. Seven days' notice of redemption is required for withdrawals of investments in the 4M Term Series
withdrawn prior to the maturity date of that series. A penalty could be assessed as necessary to recoup the Series for any
charges, losses, and other costs attributable to the early redemption. Financial statements of the 4M Fund can be
obtained by contracting RBC Global Management at 100 South Fifth Street, Suite 2300, Minneapolis, MN 55402-1240.
Investment Policy
The City's investment policy incorporates Minnesota statutes as described above which reduces the City's exposure to
credit, custodial credit and interest rate risks. Specific risk information for the City is as follows:
• Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations.
Ratings are provided by various credit rating agencies and where applicable, indicate associated credit risk.
Minnesota statutes and the City's investment policy limit the City's investments to the list above.
• Custodial Credit Risk. The custodial credit risk for 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. The City's investments held by the broker-dealer were
insured by SI PC or other supplemental insurance as of December 31, 2020. However, each investment
brokerage firm may have a limit to their supplemental insurance and because of the size of the City's portfolio in
relation to the brokerage firm's excess SIPC coverage limits the portion of the supplemental policy applicable to
the City's portfolio is unknown. The City's investment policy does not address custodial credit risk. The City
accepts the risk due to the controls in place at the broker-dealer.
• Concentration of Credit Risk. Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of a
government's investment in a single issuer. In accordance with the City's investment policy, the City diversifies its
investment portfolio to eliminate the risk of loss resulting from over-concentration of assets in a specific maturity, a
specific issuer or a specific class of securities. The maturities selected shall provide for stability of income and
reasonable liquidity.
• Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of
an investment. In accordance with its investment policy, the City will attempt to match its investments with
anticipated cash flow requirements. Unless matched to a specific cash flow, the City will not directly invest in
securities maturing more than an average expected life of ten years from the date of the purchase.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Property Taxes
The City Council annually adopts a tax levy in December and certifies it to the County for collection in the following year.
The County is responsible for collecting all property taxes for the City. These taxes attach an enforceable lien on taxable
property within the City on January 1 and are payable by the property owners in two installments. The taxes are collected
by the County Auditor and tax settlements are made to the City during January, June, and November each year.
Delinquent taxes receivable include the past six years' uncollected taxes. Delinquent taxes have been offset by a deferred
inflow of resources for taxes not received within 60 days after year end in the fund financial statements.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable include amounts billed for services provided before year end. To the extent considered necessary,
the City annually certifies delinquent water, sewer and storm water accounts to the County for collection in the following
year. Therefore, there has been no allowance for doubtful accounts established.
Special Assessments
Special assessments represent the financing for public improvements paid for by benefiting property owners. These
assessments are recorded as receivables upon certification to the County. Special assessments are recognized as
revenue when they are received in cash or within 60 days after year end. All governmental fund special assessments
receivable are offset by a deferred inflow of resources in the fund financial statements.
Interfund Receivables and Payables
All outstanding balances between funds are reported as "due to/from other funds" or"advances to/from other funds." Any
residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the
government-wide financial statements as "internal balances."
Land Held for Resale
The City acquires properties for redevelopment purposes. These properties are reported at their net realizable value in the
financial statements. Any costs incurred that are above a property's net realizable value are reported as expenditures of
the current period. The balance of land held for resale is offset with nonspendable or restricted fund balance to indicate
that it is not available for appropriation.
Notes Receivable
Notes receivable include amounts paid by or loaned by the City that will be paid back by other entities.
Inventories
Inventories held for resale are stated at the lower of cost or market on the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and inventories
of supplies are reported at cost. Inventories in governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather
than when purchased.

Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and
similar items) are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide
financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an estimated useful life of more than one year
and an initial individual cost of more than the following:
Category Cost
Land/Land Improvements $ 10,000
Other Improvements 25,000
1 nfrastructure 100,000
Buildings 25,000
Building Improvements 25,000
Vehicles 5,000
Other Equipment 5,000
Intangible Assets 10,000
The City reports infrastructure assets on a network and subsystem basis. Accordingly, the amounts spent for the
construction or acquisition of infrastructure assets are capitalized and reported in the government-wide financial
statements regardless of their amount.
In the case of initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by governmental activities) the City
chose to include items dating back to June 30, 1980. The City was able to estimate the historical cost for the initial
reporting of these assets through back trending (i.e., estimating the current replacement cost of the infrastructure to be
capitalized and using an appropriate price-level index to deflate the cost to the acquisition year or estimated acquisition
year). As the City constructs or acquires capital assets each period, including infrastructure assets, they are capitalized
and reported at historical cost. The reported value excludes normal maintenance and repairs which are essentially
amounts spent in relation to capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or extend its useful
life beyond the original estimate. In the case of donations, the City values these capital assets at the acquisition value of
the item at the date of its donation.
Property, plant and equipment will be depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Useful Lives
Assets in Years
Land Improvements 5 to 30
Infrastructure 15 to 50
Buildings 15 to 40
Vehicles 3 to 15
Other Equipment 3 to 20

Deferred Outflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of net position 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 a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure)
until then. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category. The loss on refunding bonds reported in the
government-wide statement of net position. A loss on refunding results from the difference in the carrying value of
refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the
refunded or refunding debt. The item, deferred pension resources, is reported only in the statements of net position. This
item results from actuarial calculations and current year pension contributions made subsequent to the measurement
date.
Pensions
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense,
information about the fiduciary net position of the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) and additions
to/deductions from PERA's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by PERA
except that PERA's fiscal year end is June 30. For this purpose, plan contributions are recognized as of employer payroll
paid dates and benefit payments and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms.
Investments are reported at fair value. The General fund is typically used to liquidate the governmental net pension
liability. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability (asset) and deferred outflows of resources related to pensions,
and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the defined benefit plan administered by the
Albertville Firefighter's Relief Association and additions to and deductions from the plan's fiduciary net position have been
determined on the same basis as they are reported by the plan. Investments are reported at fair value.
The total pension expense for the GERP, PEPFP and the Albertville Fire Relief Association is as follows:
Total
GERP PEPFP FRA Pension Expense
Pension Expense $ 71,306 $ 27,889 $ 30,253 $ 129,448
Compensated Absences
It is the City's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits. All vacation
and sick pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for
these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee
resignations and retirements. The General fund is typically used to liquidate the governmental compensated absences
liability.
Long-term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt
and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities,
or proprietary fund type statement of net position. The recognition of bond premiums and discounts are amortized over the
life of the bonds using the straight line method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or
discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as an expense in the period incurred.
In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognized bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond
issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources.
Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are
reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are
reported as debt service expenditures.

Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Deferred Inflows of Resources
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position and fund financial statements 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 a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of
resources (revenue) until that time. The City has only one type of item, which arises only under a modified accrual basis of
accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the item, unavailable revenue, is reported only in the
governmental funds balance sheet. The governmental funds report unavailable revenues from three sources: property
taxes, special assessments and notes/intergovernmental receivable. These amounts are deferred and recognized as an
inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available.
The City has an additional item which qualifies for reporting in this category. The item, deferred pension resources, is
reported only in the statements of net position and results from actuarial calculations.
Fund Balance
In the fund financial statements, fund balance is divided into five classifications based primarily on the extent to which the
City is bound to observe constraints imposed upon the use of resources reported in the governmental funds. These
classifications are defined as follows:
Nonspendable -Amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form, such as land held for resale.
Restricted-Amounts related to externally imposed constraints established by creditors, grantors or contributors; or
constraints imposed by state statutory provisions.
Committed-Amounts constrained for specific purposes that are internally imposed by formal action (resolution) of the
City Council, which is the City's highest level of decision-making authority. Committed amounts cannot be used for
any other purpose unless the City Council modifies or rescinds the commitment by resolution.
Assigned-Amounts constrained for specific purposes that are internally imposed. In governmental funds other than
the General fund, assigned fund balance represents all remaining amounts that are not classified as nonspendable
and are neither restricted nor committed. In the General fund, assigned amounts represent intended uses established
by the City Council itself or by an official to which the governing body delegates the authority. The City Council has
adopted a fund balance policy which delegates the authority to assign amounts for specific purposes to the Finance
Director and/or City Administrator.
Unassigned-The residual classification for the General fund and also negative residual amounts in other funds.
The City considers restricted amounts to be spent first when both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available.
Additionally, the City would first use committed, then assigned, and lastly unassigned amounts of unrestricted fund
balance when expenditures are made.
The City has formally adopted a fund balance policy for the General fund. The City's policy is to maintain a minimum
unassigned fund balance of 35 percent of next year's budgeted operating expenditures for cash-flow timing needs.

Net Position
Net position represents the difference between assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources. Net position is displayed in three components:
a. Net investment in capital assets - Consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation reduced by any
outstanding debt attributable to acquire capital assets.
b. Restricted net position - Consist of net position restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use through
external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, laws or regulations of other governments.
c. Unrestricted net position -All other net positions that do not meet the definition of"restricted" or"net investment in
capital assets".
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources
first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
Note 2: Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability
A. Budgetary Information
An annual budget is adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America for the General fund. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end. The City does not use encumbrance
accounting.
In June of each year, all departments of the City submit requests for appropriations to the City Administrator so that a
budget may be prepared. Before September 30, the proposed budget is presented to the City Council for review. The City
Council holds public hearings and a final budget is prepared and adopted in early December.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. The City's department heads, with the approval of
the City Administrator, may make transfers of appropriations within a department. Transfers of appropriations between
departments require the approval of the City Council. The legal level of budgetary control is the department level.
Budgeted amounts are as originally adopted by the City Council. There were no budget amendments made in 2020.

A. Deposits and Investments
Deposits
Custodial credit risk for deposits and investments is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits and
investments may not be returned or the City will not be able to recover collateral securities in the possession of an outside
party. In accordance with Minnesota statutes and as authorized by the City Council, the City maintains deposits at those
depository banks, all of which are members of the Federal Reserve System.
Minnesota statutes require that all City deposits be protected by insurance, surety bond or collateral. The fair value of
collateral pledged must equal 110 percent of the deposits not covered by insurance or bonds, with the exception of
irrevocable standby letters of credit issued by Federal Home Loan Banks as this type of collateral only requires collateral
pledged equal to 100 percent of the deposits not covered by insurance or bonds.
Authorized collateral in lieu of a corporate surety bond includes:
• United States government Treasury bills, Treasury notes, Treasury bonds;
• Issues of United States government agencies and instrumentalities as quoted by a recognized industry quotation
service available to the government entity;
• General obligation securities of any state or local government with taxing powers which is rated "A" or better by a
national bond rating service, or revenue obligation securities of any state or local government with taxing powers
which is rated "AK or better by a national bond rating service;
• General obligation securities of a local government with taxing powers may be pledged as collateral against funds
deposited by that same local government entity;
• Irrevocable standby letters of credit issued by Federal Home Loan Banks to a municipality accompanied by
written evidence that the bank's public debt is rated "AK or better by Moody's Investors Service, Inc., or Standard
& Poor's Corporation; and
• Time deposits that are fully insured by any federal agency.
Minnesota statutes require that all collateral shall be placed in safekeeping in a restricted account at a Federal Reserve
Bank, or in an account at a trust department of a commercial bank or other financial institution that is not owned or
controlled by the financial institution furnishing the collateral. The selection should be approved by the government entity.

Note 4: Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Statewide (Continued)
B. Benefits Provided
PERA provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Benefit provisions are established by state statute and can only
be modified by the state legislature. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving them
yet are bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
General Employees Plan Benefits
General Employees Plan benefits are based on a member's highest average salary for any five successive years of
allowable service, age, and years of credit at termination of service. Two methods are used to compute benefits for
PERA's Coordinated Plan members. Members hired prior to July 1, 1989 receive the higher of Method 1 or Method 2
formulas. Only Method 2 is used for members hired after June 30, 1989. Under Method 1, the accrual rate for Coordinated
members is 1.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years of service and 1.7 percent of average salary for
each additional year. Under Method 2, the accrual rate for Coordinated members is 1.7 percent of average salary for all
years of service. For members hired prior to July 1, 1989 a full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal
90 and normal retirement age is 65. For members hired on or after July 1, 1989 normal retirement age is the age for
unreduced Social Security benefits capped at 66.
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. Beginning in 2019, the postretirement increase will be
equal to 50 percent of the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) announced by the SSA, with a minimum increase of at least 1
percent and a maximum of 1.5 percent. Recipients that have been receiving the annuity or benefit for at least a full year
as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive the full increase. For recipients receiving the
annuity or benefit for at least one month but less than a full year as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase
will receive a reduced prorated increase. For members retiring on January 1, 2024, or later, the increase will be delayed
until normal retirement age (age 65 if hired prior to July 1, 1989, or age 66 for individuals hired on or after July 1, 1989).
Members retiring under Rule of 90 are exempt from the delay to normal retirement.
Police and Fire Plan Benefits
Benefits for Police and Fire Plan members first hired after June 30, 2010, but before July 1, 2014 vest on a prorated basis
from 50 percent after five years up to 100 percent after ten years of credited service. Benefits for Police and Fire Plan
members first hired after June 30, 2014 vest on a prorated basis from 50 percent after ten years up to 100 percent after
twenty years of credited service. The annuity accrual rate is 3 percent of average salary for each year of service. For
Police and Fire Plan members who were first hired prior to July 1, 1989, a full annuity is available when age plus years of
service equal at least 90.
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. Beginning in 2019, the postretirement increase will be
fixed at 1 percent. Recipients that have been receiving the annuity or benefit for at least 36 months as of the June 30
before the effective date of the increase-will receive the full increase. For recipients receiving the annuity or benefit for at
least 25 months but less than 36 months as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive a reduced
prorated increase.
C. Contributions
Minnesota statutes chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions. Contribution rates can only be
modified by the state Legislature.

General Employees Fund Pension Costs
At December 31, 2020, the City reported a liability of$1,043,210 for its proportionate share of the General Employees
Fund's net pension liability. The City's net pension liability reflected a reduction due to the State of Minnesota's
contribution of$16 million. The State of Minnesota is considered a non-employer contributing entity and the state's
contribution meets the definition of a special funding situation. The State of Minnesota's proportionate share of the net
pension liability associated with the City totaled $32,283. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and
the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that
date. The City's proportionate share of the net pension liability was based on the City's contributions received by PERA
during the measurement period for employer payroll paid dates from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 relative to the
total employer contributions received from all of PERA's participating employers. The City's proportionate share was
0.0174 percent which was an increase of 0.0013 percent decrease from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2019.

pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total pension liability used to
calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The City's proportionate share
of the net pension liability was based on the City's contributions received by PERA during the measurement period for
employer payroll paid dates from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020 relative to the total employer contributions received
from all of PERA's participating employers. At June 30, 2020, the City's proportionate share was 0.0174 percent which
was an increase of 0.0013 percent from its proportionate share measured as of June 30, 2019.
As a result, the State of Minnesota is included as a non-employer contributing entity in the Police and Fire Retirement
Plan Schedule of Employer Allocations and Schedule of Pension Amounts by Employer, Current Reporting Period Only
(pension allocation schedules) for the $4.5 million in direct state aid. Police and Fire Plan employers need to recognize

E. Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability in the June 30, 2020 actuarial valuation was determined using an individual entry-age normal
actuarial cost method and the following actuarial assumptions:
Inflation 2.50%
Active Member Payroll Growth 3.25% per year
Investment Rate of Return 7.50%
Salary increases were based on a service-related table. Mortality rates for active members, retirees, survivors and
disabilitants were based on RP-2014 tables for males or females, as appropriate, with slight adjustments to fit PERA's
experience. Cost of living benefit increases after retirement for retirees are assumed to be 1.25 percent per year for
General Employees Plan and 1.0 percent per year for Police and Fire Plan.
Actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2020 valuation were based on the results of actuarial experience studies. The
most recent four-year experience study in the General Employee Plan was completed in 2019. The assumption changes
were adopted by the Board and become effective with the July 1, 2020 actuarial valuation. The most recent four-year
experience study for the Police and Fire Plan was completed in 2020. The recommended assumptions for that plan were
adopted by the Board and will be effective with the July 1, 2021 actuarial valuations if approved by the Legislature.

Note 4: Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Statewide (Continued)
The following changes in actuarial assumptions and plan provisions occurred in 2020:
General Employees Fund
Changes in Actuarial Assumptions
• The price inflation assumption was decreased from 2.50% to 2.25%.
• The payroll growth assumption was decreased from 3.25% to 3.00%.
• Assumed salary increase rates were changed as recommended in the June 30, 2019 experience study. The net
effect is assumed rates that average 0.25% less than previous rates.
• Assumed rates of retirement were changed as recommended in the June 30, 2019 experience study. The
changes result in more unreduced (normal) retirements and slightly fewer Rule of 90 and early retirements.
• Assumed rates of termination were changed as recommended in the June 30, 2019 experience study. The new
rates are based on service and are generally lower than the previous rates for years 2-5 and slightly higher
thereafter.
• Assumed rates of disability were changed as recommended in the June 30, 2019 experience study. The change
results in fewer predicted disability retirements for males and females.

Note 4: Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Statewide (Continued)
The State Board of Investment, which manages the investments of PERA, prepares an analysis of the reasonableness on
a regular basis of the long-term expected rate of return using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of
expected future rates of return are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce an
expected long-term rate of return by weighting the expected future rates of return by the target asset allocation
percentages. The target allocation and best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class are
summarized in the following table:
Long-term
Target Expected Real
Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return
Domestic Stocks 35.50 % 5.10 %
Alternative Assets (Private Markets) 25.00 5.90
Bonds (Fixed Income) 20.00 0.75
International Stocks 17.50 5.30
Cash 2.00 -
Total 100.00 %
F. Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability in 2020 was 7.50 percent. The projection of cash flows used
to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members and employers will be made at rates set in
Minnesota Statutes. Based on these assumptions, the fiduciary net position of the General Employees Fund and the
Police and Fire Fund were projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan
members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of
projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
G. Pension Liability Sensitivity
The following presents the City's proportionate share of the net pension liability for all plans it participates in, calculated
using the discount rate disclosed in the preceding paragraph, as well as what the City's proportionate share of the net
pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate one percentage point lower or one percentage point
higher than the current discount rate:
City's Proportionate Share of NPL

Note 5: Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Fire Relief Association
A. Plan Description
All members of the Albertville Fire Department (the Department) are covered by a defined benefit plan administered by
the Albertville Fireman's Relief Association (the Association). As of December 31, 2020, the plan covered 26 active
firefighters and 8 vested terminated fire fighters whose pension benefits are deferred. The plan is a single employer
retirement plan and is established and administered in accordance with Minnesota statute, chapter 69.
The Association maintains a separate Special fund to accumulate assets to fund the retirement benefits earned by the
Department's membership. Funding for the Association is derived from an insurance premium tax in accordance with the
Volunteer Firefighter's Relief Association Financing Guidelines Act of 1971 (chapter 261 as amended by chapter 509 of
Minnesota statutes 1980). Funds are also derived from investment income.
B. Benefits Provided
A firefighter who completes at least 20 years as an active member of the Department is entitled, after age 50, to a full
service pension upon retirement.
The bylaws of the Association also provide for an early vested service pension for a retiring member who has completed
fewer than 20 years of service. The reduced pension, available to members with 10 years of service, shall be equal to
60 percent of the pension as prescribed by the bylaws. This percentage increases 4 percent per year so that at 20 years
of service, the full amount prescribed is paid. Members who retire with less than 20 years of service and have reached the
age of 50 years and have completed at least 10 years of active membership are entitled to a reduced service pension not
to exceed the amount calculated by multiplying the member's service pension for the completed years of service times the
applicable non-forfeitable percentage of pension.
C. Contributions
Minnesota statutes, chapters 424 and 424A authorize pension benefits for volunteer fire relief associations. The plan is
funded by fire state aid, investment earnings and, if necessary, employer contributions as specified in Minnesota statutes
and voluntary City contributions (if applicable). The State of Minnesota contributed in fire state aid to the plan on behalf of
the Albertville Fire Department for the year ended December 31, 2019, which was recorded as a revenue. Required
employer contributions are calculated annually based on statutory provisions. The City made no voluntary contributions to
the plan. The firefighter has no obligation to contribute to the plan.

D. Pension Costs
At December 31, 2020, the City reported a net pension liability (asset)of($362,586)for the Volunteer Firefighter Fund.
The net pension asset was measured as of December 31, 2020. The total pension asset used to calculate the net pension
asset in accordance with GASB 68 was determined by PERA applying an actuarial formula to specific census data
certified by the Department. The following table presents the changes in net pension liability (asset) during the year.

Note 5: Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Fire Relief Association (Continued)
Deferred outflows of resources totaling $92,750 related to pensions resulting from the City's contributions to the plan
subsequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension asset in the year ended
December 31, 2021. Other amounts reported as deferred outflows of resources related to the plan will be recognized in
pension expense as follows:
2021 $ (18,919)

2023 (12,332)
2024 (29,345)
2025 (7,876)
Thereafter (9,521)
E. Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension asset at December 31, 2020 was determined using the entry age normal actuarial cost method and the
following actuarial assumptions:
Retirement Eligibility at 100 Percent of Age 50
Salary Increases 2.50% per year
Cost of Living Increases N/A
Investment Rate of Return 5.50%
20 Year Municipal Bond Yield 3.50%
There were no changes in actuarial assumptions in 2020.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in
which best estimates for expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of inflation)were developed for each
asset class using the plan's target investment allocation along with long-term return expectations by asset class. Inflation
expectations were applied to derive the nominal rate of return for the portfolio.
The target allocation and best estimates of geometric real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in
the following table:
Long-term
Target Expected Real
Asset Class Allocation Rate of Return
Equities 54.00 % 7.30 %
Fixed Income 37.00 3.80
Other 1.00 6.00
Cash 8.00 2.25
Total 100.00 %
F. Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 5.00 percent. The projection of cash flows used to
determine the discount rate assumed that contributions to the plan will be made as specified in statute. Based on that
assumption and considering the funding ratio of the plan, the fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make
all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of
return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension
liability.

Joint Powers Water Board of Albertville, Hanover and St. Michael
The Joint Powers Water Board of Albertville, Hanover and St. Michael (the "JPWB") was established under a joint powers
agreement among the Cities of Albertville, Hanover and St. Michael to provide water service to the local area. The JPWB
operates as an enterprise and provides water service to the general public, with the majority of its costs being paid by
various fees and charges to users of the water system. The governing body consists of a six-member Board of
Commissioners (the "Board"). Two individuals, the Mayor and another City Council Member from each City, are appointed
by their respective City Council to serve on the Board. The JPWB does not have any component units.
The JPWB' s agreement states that charges billed and collected for water supply remain with the JPWB, while the
charges for distribution are billed by the JPWB but the collections are owned by each member City and will be remitted to
them upon collection. The financial statements from 2019, the most recent available, is summarized below.

Note 7: Other Information
A. Risk Management
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and
omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters for which the City carries insurance. The City obtains insurance
through participation in the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT), which is a risk sharing pool with
approximately 800 other governmental units. The City pays an annual premium to LMCIT for its workers compensation
and property and casualty insurance. The LMCIT is self-sustaining through member premiums and will reinsure for claims
above a prescribed dollar amount for each insurance event. Settled claims have not exceeded the City's coverage in any
of the past three fiscal years.
Liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably
estimated. An excess coverage insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of$1,000,000. Liabilities, if any,
include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNRs). The City's management is not aware of
any incurred but not reported claims.
B. Legal Debt Margin
In accordance with Minnesota statutes, the City may not incur or be subject to net debt in excess of three percent of the
market value of taxable property within the City. Net debt is payable solely from ad valorem taxes and, therefore, excludes
debt financed partially or entirely by special assessments, enterprise fund revenues or tax increments. The City's
applicable debt does not exceed the limit.

C. Conduit Debt Obligations
Conduit debt obligations are certain limited-obligation revenue bonds or similar debt instruments issued for the express
purpose of providing capital financing for a specific third party. The City has issued revenue bonds to provide financial
assistance to private-sector entities for projects deemed to be in the public interest. Although these bonds bear the name
of the City, the City, the State, nor any political subdivision thereof is obligated in any manner for repayment of the bonds.
Accordingly, the bonds are not reported as liabilities in the accompanying financial statements.

Description and Issued Year End
Multifamily Housing Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2007 $ 3,540,000 $ 2,875,000
Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds, Series 2010A 4,750,000 4,105,000
Multifamily Housing Revenue Bonds, Series 2010B 3,300,000 3,193,928
Total Conduit Debt $ 11,590,000 $ 10,173,928
D. Tax Increment Financing Districts
The City's tax increment districts are subject to review by the State of Minnesota Office of the State Auditor(OSA). Any
disallowed claims or misuse of tax increments could become a liability of the applicable fund. Management has indicated
that they are not aware of any instances of noncompliance which would have a material effect on the financial statements.
E. Commitment Cost Sharing Agreement
The City has entered into a cost sharing agreement for the construction and maintenance of a library with the City of
St. Michael, Minnesota. The library net cost is split based on the pro rata average of population and market value.
Note 8: COVID-19
On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization ("WHO") announced a global health emergency because of a new
strain of coronavirus ("COVID-19") and the risks to the international community as virus spreads globally. On
March 11, 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure
globally. In response to the pandemic, the State of Minnesota has issued stay-at-home orders and other measures aimed
at slowing the spread of the coronavirus.
The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve as of the date of this report. Due to the rapid development
and fluidity of this situation, the City cannot determine the ultimate impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its
financial condition, liquidity, and future revenue collection, and therefore any prediction as to the ultimate impact on the
City's financial condition, liquidity, and future results of its revenue collections is uncertain.

the previous rates for years 2-5 and slightly higher thereafter. Assumed rates of disability were changed as recommended
in the June 30, 2019 experience study. The change results in fewer predicted disability retirements for males and females.
The base mortality table for healthy annuitants and employees was changed from the RP-2014 table to the Pub-2010
General Mortality table, with adjustments. The base mortality table for disabled annuitants was changed from the RP-

adjustments. The mortality improvement scale was changed from Scale MP-2018 to Scale MP-2019. The assumed
spouse age difference was changed from two years older for females to one year older. The assumed number of married
male new retirees electing the 100% Joint& Survivor option changed from 35% to 45%. The assumed number of married
female new retirees electing the 100% Joint&Survivor option changed from 15% to 30%. The corresponding number of
married new retirees electing the Life annuity option was adjusted accordingly.
2019 -The mortality projection scale was changed from MP-2017 to MP-2018.
2018 -The morality projection scale was changed from MP-2015 to MP-2017. The assumed benefit increase was

vested and non-vested deferred members. The revised CSA loads are now 0.0 percent for active member liability, 15.0
percent for vested deferred member liability and 3.0 percent for non-vested deferred member liability. The assumed
post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0 percent per year for all years to 1.0 percent per year through
2044 and 2.5 percent per year thereafter.
2016 -The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0 percent per year through 2035 and 2.5
percent per year thereafter to 1.0 percent per year for all future years. The assumed investment return was changed from
7.9 percent to 7.5 percent. The single discount rate was changed from 7.9 percent to 7.5 percent. Other assumptions
were changed pursuant to the experience study dated June 30, 2015. The assumed future salary increases, payroll
growth and inflation were decreased by 0.25 percent to 3.25 percent for payroll growth and 2.50 percent for inflation.
2015 -The assumed post-retirement benefit increase rate was changed from 1.0 percent per year through 2030 and 2.5
percent per year thereafter to 1.0 percent per year through 2035 and 2.5 percent per year thereafter.

per year. The state's special funding contribution was changed prospectively, requiring $16.0 million due per year through
2031.
2018 -The augmentation adjustment in early retirement factors is eliminated over a five-year period starting July 1, 2019,
resulting in actuarial equivalence after June 30, 2024. Interest credited on member contributions decreased from 4.00
percent to 3.00 percent, beginning July 1, 2018. Deferred augmentation was changed to 0.00 percent, effective

Overlapping rates are those of local and county governments that apply to property owners within the City. Not all
overlapping rates apply to all City property owners (e.g. the rates for special districts apply only to the proportion of the
government's property owners whose property is located within the geographic boundaries of the special district).

Sources : Market value data used to estimate applicable percentages provided by the Wright County
Auditor/Treasurer department. Debt outstanding data was provided from the same source.
Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the City. This
schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and
businesses of the City. This process recognized that,when considering the government's ability to issue and repay long-term
debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However, this does not
imply that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping government.
* The percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable market property values. Applicable
percentages were estimated by determining the portion of the county's taxable market value that is within the City's
boundaries and dividing it by the county's total taxable market value.
