INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
To the Honorable Mayor and
Members of the City Council
City of Palm Desert, California
Report on Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund and the aggregate
remaining fund information of the City of Palm Desert, California, (the City) as of and for the year
ended June 30, 2014, and the related notes to the basic 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.
Auditors’ Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these basic 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 basic financial statements are free
from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in
the basic financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ 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 auditors consider 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 presentation of the
financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for
our audit opinions.

Opinions
In our opinion, the basic financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the
discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information
of the City, as of June 30, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable,
cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management’s discussion and analysis, the schedules of funding progress and budgetary comparison
schedules, as listed in the table of contents, 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 management’s discussion and
analysis and the schedules of funding progress 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 the audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide
any assurance on the management’s discussion and analysis and the schedules of funding progress
because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or
provide any assurance. The budgetary comparison schedules have 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 of the City 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 budgetary comparison schedules are fairly stated
in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
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, supplementary
schedules and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required
part of the basic financial statements.
The supplementary schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate
directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements.
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 supplementary schedules are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic
financial statements as a whole.

Other Matters (Continued)
Other Information (Continued)
The introductory and statistical sections 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
November 17, 2014, 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 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
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.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
Our discussion and analysis of the City of Palm Desert’s financial performance for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2014 provides: a comparison of current year to prior year ending results based on the
government-wide statements; an analysis of the City’s overall financial position and results of operations
to assist users in evaluating the City’s financial position; a discussion of significant changes that occurred
in funds; and significant budget variances. In addition, it describes the activities during the year for capital
assets and long-term debt. We end our discussion and analysis with a description of known facts,
decisions, and conditions that are expected to have a significant effect on the financial position or results
of operations. Please read it in conjunction with the transmittal letter and the City’s financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS







The City’s total assets exceeded its liabilities by $788.17 million (net position).
The City’s governmental activities net position increased $10.14 million, and the net position of
the business-type activities decreased $0.64 million.
During the year, the City’s revenues were $95.77 million and expenses were $86.07 million in its
governmental activities, excluding transfers, compared to fiscal year 2013, where expenses were
$0.74 million more than revenues.
In the City’s business-type activities, expenses were $0.20 million more than the $9.17 million
generated in green fees, merchandise sales, rental income and other revenues compared to the
prior year, where business-type activities revenues were $0.27 million less than its expenses.
The City’s governmental activities program revenues and general revenues increased by
$19.25 million, or 25.16 percent from prior year, while program expenses increased $8.81 million,
or 11.40 percent from prior year.
Business-type activities revenues decreased by $0.20 million, from $9.37 million to $9.17 million.
Expenses decreased by $0.27 million from the prior year.
The revenues available for expenditures were $1 million more than budgeted in the General
Fund. The City kept General Fund expenditures within spending limits by $2.23 million.
USING THIS ANNUAL REPORT
This annual report consists of a series of financial statements. The Statement of Net Position and
Statement of Activities (on Pages 17, 18 and 19) provide information about the activities of the City as a
whole and present a long-term view of the City’s finances. Fund financial statements start on Page 22.
For governmental activities, these fund statements tell how these services were financed in the short term
as well as what remains for future spending. Fund financial statements also report the City’s operation in
more detail than the government-wide statements by providing information about the City’s most
significant funds and other funds. The remaining fiduciary fund statement provides financial information
about activities for which the City acts solely as a trustee or agent for the benefit of those outside of the
government.
See independent auditors’ report.

REPORTING THE CITY AS A WHOLE
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities:
Our analysis of the City as a whole begins on Page 17. One of the most important questions asked about
the City’s finances is, “Is the City as a whole better off or worse off as a result of the year’s activities?”
The Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities report information about the City as a whole
and about its activities in a way that answers this question. These statements include all assets and
liabilities of the City using the accrual basis of accounting, which is similar to the accounting used by most
private-sector companies. All of the current year’s revenues and expenses are taken into account
regardless of when cash is received or paid.
These two statements report the City’s net position and changes in them. Net position is the difference
between total assets and deferred outflows of resources less liabilities, which is one way to measure the
City’s financial health, or financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the City’s net position
are an indication of whether its financial health is improving or deteriorating. Other non-financial factors
should be considered, however, such as changes in the economy that could cause a decrease in
consumer spending.
In the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, we separate City Activities as follows:
Governmental activities – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in this category, including
general administration (city manager, city clerk, finance, etc.), police and fire protection, public works,
parks & recreation, and culture departments. Property taxes, sales tax, transient occupancy tax, user
fees, interest income, franchise fees, state and federal grants, contributions from other agencies, and
other revenues finance these activities.
Business-type activities – The City charges a fee to customers to cover all or most of the cost of certain
services it provides. The City’s municipal golf course, Desert Willow, and the City’s Parkview Office
Complex activities are reported in this category.
Component unit activities – The City includes one separate legal entity in its report – the Palm Desert
Recreation Facilities Corporation. Although legally separate, this “component unit” is important because
the City is financially accountable for it.
REPORTING THE CITY’S MOST SIGNIFICANT FUNDS
Fund Financial Statements:
The fund financial statements provide detailed information about the most significant funds and other
funds, not the City as a whole. Some funds are required to be established by State law and by bond
covenants. However, management established many other funds to help it control and manage money
for particular purposes or to show that it is meeting legal responsibilities for using certain taxes, grants,
and other resources. The City has three types of funds: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary.
Governmental funds – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in governmental funds, which focus
on how money flows in and out of those funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for
spending. These funds are reported using an accounting method called modified accrual accounting,
which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The
governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City’s general government
operations and the basic services it provides. Governmental fund information helps determine whether
there are more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City’s
programs. The differences of results in the Governmental Fund financial statements to those in the
Government-wide financial statements are explained in a reconciliation following each Governmental
Fund financial statement.
See independent auditors’ report.
-6-
Proprietary funds – When the City charges customers for the services it provides, these services are
generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same way that all activities
are reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. The City’s enterprise funds
are the same as the business-type activities we report in the government-wide statements, but provide
more detail and information such as a statement of cash flows.
Fiduciary funds – Used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government.
Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statement because the resources of
those funds are not available to support the City of Palm Desert operations. The accounting used for
fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
THE CITY AS TRUSTEE
Reporting the City’s Fiduciary Responsibilities:
The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency
private-purpose trust fund and certain agency funds held on behalf of developers and its employees’
retiree service stipend fund. The City’s fiduciary activities are reported in separate Statements of Net
Position, Statement of Changes in Net Position, Statement of Assets and Liabilities, and Statement of
Changes in Assets and Liabilities. We exclude these activities from the City’s other financial statements
because the City cannot use these assets to finance its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring
that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.
THE CITY AS A WHOLE
The City’s combined net assets increased $9.50 million from $778.67 million to $788.17 million. A
separate review of the net change in the governmental and business-type activities is provided for the
reader. Our analysis focuses on the net assets (Table 1) and changes in net assets (Table 2) of the City’s
governmental and business-type activities.
See independent auditors’ report.

Total
The City’s governmental activities net position increased by 1.44 percent, or $10.14 million. The City’s net
position is made up of three components: Net investment in capital assets; restricted net position; and
unrestricted net position. For governmental activities, unrestricted net position, which represents the part
of net position that can be used to finance day-to-day operations, accounted for 14.82 percent of the
overall total net position. Unrestricted net position increased $1.93 million from $103.60 million in 2013 to
$105.53 million in 2014. This is an indication that the City’s Governmental Activities financial position
recognized an increase from prior year. The City has $1.93 million more of unrestricted funds that can be
used to finance its operations. The increase is attributable to a raise in sales sax and transient occupancy
tax.
The increase in restricted net position of $7.72 million was due to the following: restricted capital projects
decreased by $3.69 million due to capital projects expenses; restricted special projects increased by
$11.41 million. The majority of the increase is attributable to Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset
Fund held by the Palm Desert Housing Authority. On May 15, 1991 the County of Riverside Superior
Court entered final judgment on consolidated actions, Indio Case Nos. 51123 and 51143 (the Judgment),
requiring the former Redevelopment Agency to use at least 20% of its tax increment, if necessary, to
develop, rehabilitate or otherwise financially assist a certain number of affordable housing units and to
meet certain affordable housing needs of the City.
To implement the Judgment, the former
Redevelopment Agency and the Housing Authority entered into a Housing Cooperation Agreement in
2005, which was amended in 2008. Under the Housing Cooperation Agreement, former Redevelopment
Agency agreed to develop certain affordable housing units and the Housing Authority agreed to renovate,
rehabilitate and repair the designated affordable units, with the entire expense of the renovation,
rehabilitation, and repair of the affordable units to be borne by the former Redevelopment Agency. The
Successor Agency is required to continue to pay all enforceable obligations of the former Redevelopment
Agency that existed prior to dissolution. Accordingly, the Successor Agency has included the Judgment
as an enforceable obligation on all Recognized Obligation Payment Schedules. The current year
requirement for the Judgment and the corresponding amount deposited with the Housing Authority totaled
$9.16 million.
Investment in capital assets increased $0.49 million. The calculation of Investment in capital assets
includes outstanding debt used to purchase or construct the City’s capital assets. Major additions
included infrastructure projects that include street widening and traffic signals and a contribution of land
and buildings from the Successor Agency, which was approved by the State of California in the amount of
$6.39 million (see Note 5).
The net position of the business-type activities saw a decrease of $0.64 million, from $76.57 million to
$75.93 million. The main factors for the decrease in net position were the transfer out and depreciation
expense. Total liabilities decreased $0.73 million from $2.85 million in 2013 to $2.12 million in 2014.
The City’s governmental activities total assets and deferred outflow of resources increased from $724.09
million in 2013 to $747.79 million in 2014. The increase is attributable to $15 million of bond proceeds
transferred by the Successor Agency pursuant to a Bond Proceeds Funding Agreement Regarding
Portola Avenue/I-10 Interchange Project. The Agreement is by and among the Coachella Valley
Association of Governments, the City and the Successor Agency. Pursuant to the Agreement, $15 million
of bond proceeds was deposited into an account from which the City can make draws to pay the Local
Share of the Portola Avenue and Interstate 10 interchange project.
Total liabilities increased by $13.56 million. There was a $0.29 million reduction due to the retirement of
debt, and an increase of $13.85 million in other liabilities. The increase in other liabilities represents the
$15 million of unearned revenue for the future interchange at Portola and Interstate 10 that will be
recognized as the interchange is being constructed.

Governmental Activities
Total revenue, excluding transfers increased from $76.52 million to $95.77 million, a 25.16 percent
increase. The increase is the result of a 172.83 percent increase in capital grants and contributions of
$13.36 million. Factors that contributed to the changes in revenues are as follows:


Capital contributions of lands and buildings representing government-use property transfers from
the Successor Agency to the City pursuant to the Long Range Property Management Plan, as
approved by the California State Department of Finance.
Deposit with Housing Authority in connection with the Judgment described on Page 9 increased
by $4.55 million, as compared to the deposit for the prior year (with the prior year amount being
lower because of the disruption to property tax revenue receipt caused by redevelopment agency
dissolution).
Total expenses increased from $77.26 million to $86.07 million, an 11.40 percent increase. General
government increased $2.81 million, Housing and Redevelopment increased $0.90 million, public safety
increased $0.73 million and public works increased $4.80 million. The City continues to find ways to
operate without the assistance of the former Redevelopment Agency. All transactions of the former
Redevelopment Agency are reflected on Pages 33 and 34 under the title of Successor Agency to the
Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency Private-Purpose Trust Fund.

Business-type Activities
Business-type activities revenues saw a decrease of $0.20 million from $9.37 million to $9.17 million, a
2.13 percent decrease from the prior year. The overall decrease was directly related to the capital
contributions received during the prior fiscal year. Both the Desert Willow Golf Resort and the Parkview
Office Complex diligently focused on retaining the market share in their respective industries. The Desert
Willow Golf Resort utilized a strategic pricing structure which allowed the golf resort to retain the course
utilization with minimal impact to the overall average green fee. As a result, in a declining market, Desert
Willow recognized an increase in revenue from $7.49 million to $7.80 million, a 4.13 percent increase
from prior year. The golf resort management diligently marketed the platinum card program and offered a
discount during an introductory period, which motivated sales. The Parkview Office Complex revenues
increased slightly resulting from annual rental rate adjustments stipulated in the lease agreement with the
tenants.
Operating expenses for business-type activities decreased from $9.64 million to $9.37 million, a decrease
of 2.80 percent. Both the Desert Willow Golf Resort and the Parkview Office Complex staff worked on
controlling expenses.

THE CITY’S FUNDS
On Page 22, the governmental funds balance sheet is shown. The combined fund balance of
$238.65 million increased from $232.05 million, or 2.84 percent. This total includes the General Fund
balance of $78.37 million, which increased by $2.16 million from prior year. The City’s General Fund
balance has a nonspendable balance of $7.74 million, which includes advances, loans and notes, and
prepaid cost, $4.43 million in assigned fund balance, and $66.20 million of unassigned fund balance. The
change in the General Fund’s balance was due to growth in sales and transient occupancy tax, and an
increase in building permits and charges for services. Other major funds balance changes are noted
below:



The Prop A Fire Tax Special Revenue Fund: the fund balance decreased from $2.58 million to
$2.46 million, a $0.12 million decrease. The City transferred $1.55 million to cover part of the
shortage.
The Low Moderate Housing Asset Fund: Deposit in connection with the Judgment described on
Page 9 increased by $4.55 million, as compared to the deposit for the prior year (with the prior
year amount being lower because of the disruption to property tax revenue receipt caused by
redevelopment agency dissolution).
Measure A Special Revenue Fund: the fund balance decreased from $22.99 million to
$18.54 million, a 19.36 percent decrease. The decrease in the fund balance is due to construction
and maintenance increase of $6.82 million from the prior year.
More detailed information about the combined fund balance reserves is presented in Note 10 to the
financial statements.
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
Based upon recommendations from the staff, the City Council revised the budget several times during the
year. Adjustments were made on a monthly basis as City staff requested additional appropriations to
cover the cost of projects that either had change orders for additional work, or were underestimated. At
mid-year, adjustments were made as department heads were requested to adjust their budgets to meet
current demands. At year-end, budgets were adjusted for unanticipated expenditures. All amendments
that either increase or decrease appropriations are approved by the City Council.
For the City’s general fund, the actual ending revenues of $50.09 million were $1 million more than the
final budgeted revenues of $49.09 million. Sales and transient occupancy taxes continue to be the top
two revenue generators for the City totaling $27.11 million, or 54.12 percent of the General Fund budget.
The General Fund actual ending expenditures of $47.94 million were $2.23 million less than the final
budget of $50.17 million. There were changes in the original budget compared to the final budget during
the year. The original expenditure budget was $46.51 million compared to the final budget of
$50.17 million, a $3.66 million increase. The major change was due to the appropriations of an additional
$1.30 million in transfers to other funds and $2.70 million in retiree funding.

The City’s fiscal year 2015 capital budget calls for it to spend an additional $30.43 million plus continuing
capital projects spending of $37.68 million from prior year, with the majority being spent on street
improvements and development of a low-income housing apartment project. Projects will be funded with
existing bond proceeds or funds that have been designated by an outside party for specific use. More
detailed information about the City’s capital assets is presented in Note 1g and Note 5 to the financial
statements.
Debt
At year-end, the City’s governmental activities had $11.96 million in bonds, claims, and compensated
absences versus $12.25 million last year, a decrease of $0.29 million as shown in Table 4. The major
cause for the decrease was the required payment of annual debt.

The City was able to meet its current year debt obligation in a timely manner. Debts issued in the prior
year have been used to finance various capital projects.
The City’s business-type activities debt decreased $0.53 million from $1.75 million to $1.22 million. Debt
in the business-type activities is for capital leasing of equipment. The City’s golf course uses leasing as
an alternative to purchasing maintenance equipment to maintain a cash flow to operate the day-to-day
activities. The decrease in the City’s business-type activities debt was directly related to the annual debt
payments for the leases of golf course maintenance equipment. More detailed information about the
City’s long-term liabilities is presented in Note 6 to the financial statements.
ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGETS
In preparing the budget for fiscal year 2015, management focused on three core principles, in light of the
fact that the State of California dissolved the City’s Redevelopment Agency in fiscal year 2012:
1) minimize the impact of budget cuts to key services and maintain the level of service expected by
residents, businesses, and visitors; 2) minimize the number of tax and fee adjustments required to
maintain existing service levels; and 3) minimize the impact on the City’s employees and avoid position
reductions if possible. The following economic factors were considered by management:

In prior years, the City had unallocated reserves in its capital projects and special revenue funds.
In the five-year capital improvement program, all restricted capital funds have been allocated to
various projects. As a result, any additional projects would require a transfer from the general
fund, which would mean a decrease to the City’s unobligated general fund reserve. A detailed
analysis will be performed and a cost benefit approach will be employed before the general fund
reserves are decreased for capital improvements.

The increase in healthcare and retirement costs.
The 2015 budget is a reflection of the City’s commitment to the residents of Palm Desert. The City’s
conservative approach has provided for a consistently high level of services. The City has made a
commitment to allocate resources for public safety, cultural/social programs, and necessary infrastructure
improvements. A copy of the City’s 2014-2015 financial plan can be obtained by contacting the City’s
Finance Department or visit the City’s website at www.cityofpalmdesert.org.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
RECONCILIATION OF THE BALANCE SHEET OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
TO THE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
June 30, 2014
Total fund balance for governmental funds
$ 238,648,986
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Net Position are
different because:
When capital assets (land, buildings, equipment, etc.) that are to be used in
governmental activities are purchased or constructed, the costs of those assets
are reported as expenditures in governmental funds. However, the Statement
of Net Position includes those capital assets and contribution among the assets
of the City as a whole:
Beginning Balance, net depreciation
Current year additions
Current year deletions
Current year depreciation
Contributions
Ending Balance, net depreciation
$ 464,667,676
6,333,739
(919,707)
(11,506,398)
6,390,263
464,965,573
Deferred outflows of resources from derivative instrument
21,144
Long-term debt activities and compensated absences have not been included
in the governmental fund activities:
Long-term debt
Compensated absences
(9,267,332)
(2,691,840)
(11,959,172)
Interest on long-term debt is not accrued in governmental funds, but rather is
recognized as an expenditure when due.
(45,468)
Liability from derivative instruments
(21,144)
Because the focus of governmental funds is on short-term financing, some assets
will not be available to pay for current-period expenditures. Those assets (for
example, receivables) are offset by deferred inflows of resources in the governmental
funds and, thus, are not included in fund balance:
Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation - relates to the amount of rent
owed by component unit to City's General Fund
Measure A Special Revenue Fund grants not received in available period
Interest that was not paid at year-end
Sales Tax
Successor Agency (former Redevelopment Agency) land purchase from City

1,620,925
247,434
246,163
2,055,000
4,454,522
Other post employment benefit asset is not available to fund current expenditures
for governmental funds and therefore is not reported as an asset in the
governmental funds.
8,448,611
Internal service fund are used by management to charge the costs of certain
activities, such as equipment to individual funds. The assets and liabilities
of the internal service fund must be added to the Statement of Net Position.

CITY OF PALM DESERT
RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND
CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS
TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
For the year ended June 30, 2014
Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds
$
6,594,796
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are
different because:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the
Statement of Activities, the costs of those assets are allocated over their
estimated useful lives as a depreciation expense. This is the amount by which
depreciation and deletions exceeded capital outlays in the current period:
Current year additions
Current year deletions
Current year depreciation
Contributions of property from Successor Agency
$
6,333,739
(919,707)
(11,506,398)
6,390,263
297,897
Repayment of debt principal is an expenditure in the governmental funds, but
the repayment reduces long-term liabilities in the Statement of Net Position.
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
governmental funds:
Net change in compensated absences for the current period
Net change in accrued interest for the current period
Net change in claims and judgments for the current period
674,000
(104,310)
5,442
(274,540)
(373,408)
Collection of unavailable revenues is reported as revenues in governmental funds
and thus has the effect of increasing fund balances. For the City as a whole,
however, the collection of these receipts reduces the net position in the Statement
of Net Position and does not result in revenues in the Statement of Activities:
Unavailable revenue
Revenues will not be collected within 60 days of the City's fiscal year-end and,
therefore, are not considered available in the governmental funds:
Interest on note issued by the City
Sales tax true-up from the State
1,614,815
(46,782)
33,736
(13,046)
Current year change for other post employment benefit asset.
479,640
Internal service funds are used by management to charge the costs of certain
activities, such as equipment. The net revenues (expenses) of the internal
service funds are reported with governmental activities.

JUNE 30, 2014
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
a. Description of the Reporting Entity:
The City of Palm Desert was originally incorporated on November 26, 1973, as a General Law
City. In December 1997, Measure LL was enacted following a vote by Palm Desert residents,
which adopted a City Charter. The City operates under a Council-Manager form of government
and provides the following services: public safety (police and fire), highways and streets,
public improvements, community development (planning, building and zoning) and general
administrative services.
The City has defined its reporting entity in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America which provides guidance for determining which
governmental activities, organizations and functions should be included in the reporting entity.
The Basic Financial Statements present information on the activities of the reporting entity,
which include the City of Palm Desert (the primary government) and its component units,
entities for which the government is considered financially accountable.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
component units be separated into blended or discretely presented units for reporting purposes.
The following criteria were used in determination of blended component units: appointment of
the governing board and fiscal dependence. Although legally separate entities, blended
component units are, in substance, part of the City's operations. Therefore, they are reported as
part of the primary government. Discretely presented component units are reported in a
separate column in the basic financial statements to emphasize that they are legally separate
from the City.
Blended Component Units
Following are descriptions of legally separate component units for which the City is financially
accountable that are blended with the Primary Government. The governing bodies of these
component units are substantially the same as the City.
The Palm Desert Housing Authority (Housing Authority) was established by the City Council
in January 1998, and is partly responsible for the administration of providing affordable
housing in the City. The Housing Authority transactions are reported in the other special
revenue funds combining financial statements as an other governmental fund.
See independent auditors’ report.

Blended Component Units (Continued)
The Palm Desert Financing Authority (Financing Authority) was formed on January 26, 1989.
The purpose of the Financing Authority is to issue debt and loan the proceeds to the City and
Agency. The Financing Authority's capital related transactions are reported in the governmental
fund financial statements in the capital projects funds, and the collection of assessments and
payments of debt service is recorded in the fiduciary funds.
The City Council of Palm Desert is the governing body for the Housing Authority and
Financing Authority.
Separate financial statements are not issued for the Housing Authority and Financing
Authority.
Discretely Presented Component Unit
The Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation (Corporation) was incorporated on
February 25, 1997. The purpose of the Corporation is to lease, operate and manage a restaurant
and bar in the Desert Willow Golf Course in Palm Desert, California. The Board of Directors of
the Corporation appoints an executive director to administer operations.
The Corporation is in a separate column to emphasize that it is legally separate from the City
and is financially accountable to the City. The two-member board governing the Corporation is
appointed by the City Council, the City has authority to approve the Corporation's budget, and
the City must approve any debt issued.
Complete financial statements of the Component Unit can be obtained from the City's
administrative offices.

b. Basis of Presentation:
Government-Wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement
of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government
and its component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed
from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and
intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to
a significant extent on fees and charges for support. Likewise, the primary government is
reported separately from certain legally separate component units for which the primary
government is financially accountable.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct and indirect expenses of
a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are
clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: 1) charges
to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods, services or
privileges provided by a given function or segment, and 2) grants and contributions that are
restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment.
Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as
general revenues. Expenses reported for functional activities include allocated indirect
expenses.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and
fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial
statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are
reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.
Fund Financial Statements
The accounting system of the City is organized and operated on the basis of separate funds,
each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for by
providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its assets, liabilities, deferred
inflows of resources, fund equity, revenues and expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized
into three major categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on
major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories.

Fund Financial Statements (Continued)
A fund is considered major if it is the primary operation fund of the City or meets the following
criteria:
a. Total assets plus deferred outflows of resources, liabilities plus deferred inflows of
resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise
fund are at least 10% of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or type; and
b. Total assets plus deferred outflows of resources, liabilities plus deferred inflows of
resources, revenues or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental fund or
enterprise fund are at least 5% of the corresponding total for all governmental and
enterprise funds combined.
c. The government has determined that a fund is important to the financial statement user.
The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below:
Governmental Fund Types
General Fund - The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account
for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue Funds - Special Revenue Funds are used to account for the proceeds of
specific revenue resources (other than major capital projects) that are legally restricted to
expenditures for specified purposes.
Debt Service Funds - Debt Service Funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources
for, and the payment of, general long-term obligation principal, interest and related costs.
Capital Projects Funds - Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be
used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities.

The funds of the financial reporting entity are described below (Continued):
Proprietary Fund Types
Enterprise Funds - The Enterprise Funds account for operations that are financed and operated
in a manner similar to private business enterprises, where the intent of the City Council is that
the costs (expenses including depreciation) of providing goods and services to the general
public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges.
The Primary Government's Enterprise funds consist of the Parkview Office Complex and the
Desert Willow Golf Course. Desert Willow Golf Course is operated by a management
company. The Component Unit's Enterprise fund consists of the Palm Desert Recreational
Facilities Corporation, also operated by a management company.
Internal Service Funds - The Internal Service Fund accounts for financial transactions related to
replacement of City-owned vehicles and equipment. These services are provided to other
departments or agencies of the City on a cost reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Fund Types
Private-Purpose Trust Fund
The Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency Private Purpose Trust Fund
is used to account for the activities of the Successor Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment
Agency.
Agency Funds
The Agency, Special Assessment and Treasurers 1911 Bond Act Funds are used to account for
assets held by the City in a custodial capacity as a trustee or as an agent. These assets include
deposits placed with the City by developers, individuals and groups to obtain future services, as
well as deposits from assessment district’s property owners. These deposits are reduced by
payments and/or refunds to individuals or entities at some future time. Agency funds are
custodial in nature and do not involve measurement of results of operations.
The City’s Retiree Service Stipend Fund is used to account for assets held to pay for the retiree
service stipend.

The major funds are as follows:
Governmental Funds
The General Fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all
financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
The Prop A Fire Tax Special Revenue Fund is used to account for all revenues derived from tax
collected within the City for upgrading fire protection and prevention. Its use is restricted to
obtaining, furnishing, operating and maintaining fire protection and prevention services
(currently under contract with Riverside County Fire Department) equipment or apparatus. This
fund is reported as a major fund because the tax collected is a voter approved measure.
The Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund is used to account for any funds
generated from housing assets of the former Redevelopment Agency to be used for projects that
benefit low and moderate income families.
The Measure A Special Revenue Fund - In 1988, Riverside County voters approved a half-cent
sales tax, known as Measure A, to fund a variety of highway improvements, local street and
road maintenance, commuter assistance and specialized transit projects. This fund is used to
collect this tax, and pursuant to the provision of Measure A (Ordinance No. 88-1 of the County
of Riverside) it is restricted for local street and road expenditures only.
Proprietary Fund
The Desert Willow Golf Course Fund is used to account for the fees collected and expenses
incurred in connection with operating the municipal golf course in the City of Palm Desert.

c. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting:
Measurement focus is a term used to describe which transactions are recorded within the
various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to when transactions are recorded
regardless of the measurement focus applied.
Measurement Focus
On the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, both
governmental and business-like activities are presented using the economic resources
measurement focus. The accounting objectives of the economic measurement focus are the
determination of operating income, changes in net position (or cost recovery), financial
position and cash flows. All assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources (whether current or noncurrent) associated with their activities are
reported.
In the fund financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement focus or the
"economic resources" measurement focus is used as appropriate:
1. All governmental funds utilize a "current financial resources" measurement focus. Only
current financial assets, deferred outflows of resources, current liabilities and deferred
inflows of resources are generally included on their balance sheets. Their operating
statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a
given period. These funds use fund balance as their measure of available spendable
financial resources at the end of the period.
2. The proprietary fund and private purpose trust fund utilize an "economic resources"
measurement focus. Proprietary fund and private purpose trust fund equity are classified as
net position.
3. Agency funds are not involved in the measurement of results of operations; therefore,
measurement focus is not applicable to them.
See independent auditors’ report.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
c. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting (Continued):
Basis of Accounting
In the government-wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities, both
governmental and business-like activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting.
Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are
recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used. Revenues, expenses, gains,
losses, assets and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are
recognized when the exchange takes place.
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds are presented on the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Under this modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized
when "measurable and available." Measurable means knowing or being able to reasonably
estimate the amount. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough
thereafter to pay current liabilities.
Revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes and special assessments that are
levied for and due for the fiscal year and collected within 60 days after year-end. Licenses,
permits, fines, forfeits, charges for services and miscellaneous revenues are recorded as
governmental fund type revenues when received in cash because they are not generally
measurable until actually received. Revenue from taxpayer assessed taxes, such as sales taxes,
are recognized in the accounting period in which they became both measurable and available to
pay liabilities of the current period. Grants and similar items are recognized as soon as all
eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Expenditures generally are
recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However debt service
expenditures as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and
judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Interfund activity has been eliminated from the general government function for the
government-wide financial statements except for charges between the government's Desert
Willow Golf Course and Parkview Office Complex funds and various other functions of the
government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues
for the various functions considered.
The accrual basis of accounting is followed by the proprietary fund and private purpose trust
fund. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and
expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic assets are used.
See independent auditors’ report.

Basis of Accounting (Continued)
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items.
Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing goods and services in
connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal revenue of the
Desert Willow Golf Course and Parkview Office Complex Enterprise Funds are charges to
customers for use of the golf course and rental fees. Operating expenses for enterprise funds
include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital
assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating
revenues and expenses.
d. New Accounting Pronouncements:

No. 62”, required to be implemented in the current fiscal year did not impact the City.
GASB 70 - “Accounting and Financial Reporting for Nonexchange Financial Guarantees”,

June 30, 2014
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
e. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources:
In addition to assets, the statement of net position and the governmental funds balance sheet
will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate
financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net
position that applies to future periods and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources
(expense/expenditure) until then. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this
category: deferred asset from derivate instruments and the deferred amount on refunding.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of net position and the governmental funds balance sheet
will sometimes report a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate
financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net
position that applies to future periods and will not be recognized as an inflow of resources
(revenue) until that time. The City has only one type of this item, which arises under a
modified accrual basis of accounting that qualifies for reporting in this category. Accordingly,
the item, unavailable revenues, is reported only in the governmental fund balance sheet. The
governmental funds report unavailable revenues from four sources: investment income, grants,
notes receivables collections and capital reimbursements from developers. These amounts are
deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become
available.
f. Net Position Flow Assumption:
Sometimes the City will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted
(e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the
amounts to report as restricted - net position and unrestricted - net position, a flow assumption
must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied.
It is the City’s practice to consider restricted - net position to have been depleted before
unrestricted - net position is applied.
g. Capital Assets and Depreciation:
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads,
traffic signals, drainage systems and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental
or business-type activities column in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets
are defined by the City as assets with an initial cost of more than $500 and an estimated life in
excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if
purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at
the date of donation.
See independent auditors’ report.

g. Capital Assets and Depreciation (Continued):
The City has reported general infrastructure assets acquired in prior and current years.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or
materially extend asset lives are not capitalized.
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, as well as the component units, are
depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:
Buildings
Improvements other than buildings
Machinery and equipment
Infrastructure
40 years
20 years
5 to 8 years
20 to 75 years
h. Appropriations Limit:
Under Article XIII-B of the California Constitution (the Gann Spending Limitation Initiative),
the City is restricted as to the amount of annual appropriations from the proceeds of taxes, and
if proceeds of taxes exceed allowed appropriations, the excess must either be refunded to the
State Controller or returned to the taxpayers through revised tax rates, revised fee schedules or
other refund arrangements. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, proceeds of taxes did not
exceed appropriations.
i. Investments:
Investments are stated at fair value (quoted market price or the best available estimate thereof).
j. Cash and Investments:
For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City has defined cash and investments to
include cash on hand, demand deposits, investments held in various instruments, and
investments held in the California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), California Asset
Management Program (CAMP) and Riverside County Treasurer’s Pooled Investment Fund.

k. Employee Compensated Absences:
It is the government's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation
and sick leave (compensated absences). Vacation pay and sick leave, which are expected to be
liquidated with expendable available resources, are reported as expenditure and liability of the
governmental fund that will pay it only if they have matured, for example, as a result of
employee resignations or retirements. Compensated absences in the amount of $2,691,840,
which are not expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources, are
reported as long-term liabilities.
l. Property Held for Resale:
The land held for resale is recorded in the Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund
as property held for resale at the lower of acquisition cost or net realizable value. At
June 30, 2014, the cost of the property held for resale for various housing properties in Palm
Desert totaled $2,463,056.
m. Inventories, Prepaid Costs and Deposits:
Inventory in the amount of $220,804 and $44,639 for the Desert Willow Golf Course
Enterprise Fund (Primary Government) and Palm Desert Recreational Facilities Corporation
(Component Unit), respectively, are stated at lower of cost or market with cost determined
using the weighted average cost method. Inventory in the amount of $34,356 in the general
fund and Other Governmental Funds are stated at cost. Inventory is recorded as an expenditure
when consumed rather than purchased.
Certain payments to vendors that reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods are
recorded as prepaid costs in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
n. Property Tax Calendar (Continued):
Under California law, property taxes are assessed and collected by the counties up to 1% of
assessed value, plus other increases approved by the voters. The property taxes go into a pool
and are then allocated to the cities based on complex formulas prescribed by state statutes. The
City accrues only those taxes, which are received within 60 days after the year-end. The City is
a participant in the Teeter Plan under the California Revenue and Taxation Code. The County
of Riverside has responsibility for the collection of delinquent taxes and the City receives
100% of the levy.
o. Restricted Assets:
Certain proceeds of debt issues, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment, are
classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because they are maintained in separate
trustee bank accounts and their use is limited to applicable bond covenants. In addition, funds
have been restricted for future capital improvements by City resolution.
p. Use of Estimates:
The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America and, accordingly, include amounts that are based on
management’s best estimates and judgments. The financial statements include estimates for
the value of the capital assets (infrastructure), depreciation expense, the fair value of
investments, the liability for derivative instruments (Note7), the amounts reported for the
schedule of funding progress for the Defined Benefit Plan (Note 9) and the actuarial accrued
liability for the other post-employment benefits (Note 13). Accordingly, actual results could
differ from the estimates.

$8,111,225. The $1,861,912 difference represents outstanding checks and other reconciling items.
The California Government Code requires California banks and savings and loan associations to
secure an Entity's deposits by pledging government securities with a value of 110% of an Entity's
deposits. California law also allows financial institutions to secure deposits by pledging first trust
deed mortgage notes having a value of 150% of total deposits. The City Treasurer may waive the
collateral requirement for deposits that are fully insured up to $250,000 by the FDIC. The
collateral for deposits in federal and state chartered banks is held in safekeeping by an authorized
Agent of Depository recognized by the State of California Department of Banking. The collateral
for deposits with savings and loan associations is generally held in safekeeping by the Federal
Home Loan Bank in San Francisco, California as an Agent of Depository. These securities are
physically held in an undivided pool for all California public agency depositors.

Credit Risk
The City Treasurer is authorized under state and municipal law to invest in various types of
securities that meet specified credit quality standards, based upon credit risk ratings assigned by
Standard and Poors (S&P) or by Moody’s Investor Services (Moody’s). Permissible City
investments include medium-term notes that are rated “A” or higher at time of purchase;
commercial paper that is rated “A-1” or the equivalent; money market mutual funds that are rated
“AAA”; and United States Government and Federal Agency securities (the quality of United States
Treasury securities is not analyzed since they are not deemed to have credit risk).
Generally, credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the
holder of the investment. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a nationally
recognized statistical rating organization. Presented below is the minimum rating required, when
applicable, by the California Government Code, the City’s investment policy, or debt agreements,
and the rating by Standard and Poor’s, Fitch and Moody’s as of year-end for each investment type.

Custodial Credit Risk
The custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository
financial institution, a government will not be able to recover deposits or will not be able to recover
collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The custodial credit risk for the
investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, a
government will not be able to recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in
the possession of an outside party.
As of June 30, 2014, none of the City’s deposits or investments were exposed to custodial credit
risk.
Concentration of Credit Risk
The City’s investment policy imposes restrictions on the percentage the City can invest in certain
types of investments, which the City is in compliance. As of June 30, 2014, in accordance with
GASB Statement no. 40, if the City has invested more than 5% of its total investments in any one
issuer then they are exposed to concentration of credit risk. The City is not invested in any one
issuer that is more than 5% of its total investments.

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

Investment in State Investment Pool
The City is a voluntary participant in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF) that is regulated
by California Government Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of
California. The fair value of the City’s investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying
financial statements at amounts based upon the City’s pro-rata share of the fair value provided by
LAIF for the entire LAIF portfolio (in relation to the amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance
available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by LAIF, which are
recorded on an amortized cost basis.
Investment in California Asset Management Program
The California Asset Management Program (CAMP) is a public joint powers authority which
provides California Public Agencies with investment management services for surplus funds and
comprehensive investment management, accounting and arbitrage rebate calculation services for
proceeds of tax-exempt financings. The CAMP currently offers the Cash Reserve Portfolio, a
short-term investment portfolio, as a means for Public Agencies to invest these funds. Public
Agencies that invest in the Pool (Participants) purchase shares of beneficial interest. Participants
may also establish individual, professionally managed investment accounts (Individual Portfolios)
by separate agreement with the Investment Advisor.
Investments in the Pools and Individual Portfolios are made only in investments in which Public
Agencies generally are permitted by California statute. The CAMP may reject any investment and
may limit the size of a Participant’s account. The Pool seeks to maintain, but does not guarantee, a
constant net asset value of $1.00 per share. A Participant may withdraw funds from its Pool
accounts at any time by check or wire transfers. Requests for same-day wire transfers must be
made by 11:00 a.m. that day. Fair value of the Pool is determined by the fair value per share of the
Pool’s underlying portfolio.
Investment in Riverside County Treasurer’s Pooled Investment Fund
The City is a voluntary participant in the Riverside County Treasurer’s Pooled Investment Fund
(Pooled Fund). The fair value of the City’s investment in this pool is reported in the accompanying
financial statements at amounts based upon the City’s pro-rata share of the fair value that the
Riverside County Treasurer’s Office has provided for the entire Pooled Fund (in relation to the
amortized cost of that portfolio). The balance available for withdrawal is based upon the

Primary Government's Governmental Funds
Notes and Loans Receivable:
On August 8, 2006, the City Palm Desert issued $3,165,000 of Limited Obligation Bonds. The
proceeds of the Bonds will be used to finance the construction of the utility undergrounding and
pay the cost of issuance. The debt service on the bonds is to be paid by assessments secured on the
property tax rolls of those properties benefiting from the improvements. Bond maturities began
September 2, 2007, and continue annually through 2036. The interest rates of the bonds range from
3.85% to 5.15%. The City of Palm Desert is the only bondholder on record for the bonds and
reports a receivable in the general fund that corresponds to the outstanding principal on the bonds.
As of June 30, 2014, the receivable balance was $1,526,000.
The Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund has $15,007 in home improvement loans.
Payments of interest and principal are due monthly on these loans.
The City entered into several individual loan agreements with residents of the Highlands Utility
Undergrounding Assessment District No. 04-01. The loans were issued by the City to pay off the
principal of the respective properties assessment. In turn, the residents agreed to pay to the City the
full cost of the loan amount plus any accrued interest at a rate of 5.35%. The full amount of the
loan along with all accrued interest is due and payable at the earliest of September 2, 2036 or any
change in ownership of the property. At June 30, 2014 the total receivable from the Highlands
Deferral Loan Program is $56,117.
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code 34176(b), the housing assets of the former RDA have been
transferred to the Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund as the successor housing
entity. The Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund has a loan receivable for the
construction of a multi-family affordable housing development dated June 14, 2001, with a balance
of $6,787,629 is due from the Palm Desert Development Company. The loan is secured by a Deed
of Trust with assignment to property, rent and fixtures on the housing development located in Palm
Desert. Interest is earned and due annually at a rate of 1% per annum from the date on which the
final certificate of occupancy is issued. Principal on the loan is based on the applicable agency’s
percentage of positive net cash flow derived from the operations of the Development.

Notes and Loans Receivable (Continued):
On August 28, 2008 the City Council approved through resolution the Energy Independence
Program (EIP), which is supported by Assembly Bill AB811. The EIP program allowed the City to
create the funding mechanism to assist the residents and businesses entering into a loan agreement
with the City and providing the money for the borrowers to acquire and install energy efficient
improvements. Assembly Bill AB811 allows the City to lien the properties through annual property
tax assessments for a period not to exceed 20 years. To date, 168 residents and business owners
entered into loan agreements with the City and have completed their improvements through the
EIP program. The loans are payable in two annual installments for a period of 5 years to 20 years
at an interest rate of 7% annually. On June 30, 2014 the outstanding loans receivable through the
EIP Program was $5,075,153.
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code 34176(b), the housing assets of the former RDA have been
transferred to the Palm Desert Housing Authority as the successor housing entity. The Housing
Authority has loans for several other projects, all of which are secured by a deed of trust. A
valuation allowance equal to the loan balance has been recognized since there is a significant
possibility that these loans will either become uncollectible or forgiven by the Housing Authority
at a future date if all the terms of the loans have been met.

Special Assessment Debt with Government Commitment
Highlands Undergrounding Assessment District No. 04-01, Limited Obligation Improvement
Bonds, Series 2006
On August 8, 2006, the City Palm Desert issued $3,165,000 of Limited Obligation Bonds. The
proceeds of the Bonds were used to finance the construction of the utility undergrounding and pay
the cost of issuance. The debt service on the bonds is to be paid by assessments secured on the
property tax rolls of those properties benefiting from the improvements. In the event that
assessment collections are insufficient to pay the debt service, the City has a potential obligation to
provide additional funds to pay the debt service, therefore these bonds are reported as special
assessment debt with government commitment. Bond maturities begin September 2, 2007, and
continue annually through 2036. The interest rates of the bonds range from 3.85% to 5.15%. The
City of Palm Desert is the only bondholder on record of the bonds.

7. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS - INTEREST RATE SWAP AGREEMENT (CONTINUED):
Basis Risk:
The swaps do expose the City to basis risk, which refers to a mismatch between the interest rate
received from the swap contract and the interest paid on the variable rate payments to be made on
the debt. The City pays the counterparty a variable interest rate ranged between 1.93% and 5.25%
and receives a variable rate in excess of the 5.25% cap, based on the one month
UDS-LIBOR-BBA. The City is at risk that the variable interest rate calculated on the debt is less
than the floor of 1.93%.
Termination Risk:
The swaps may be terminated by the City or the counterparty if the other party fails to perform
under the terms of the swap agreements. In addition, the City has the option to terminate the swaps
upon proper notification to the counterparty. If the swaps are terminated, the City would
prospectively pay the variable rates on the portion of the outstanding bonds related to the swap
agreements. The termination of the swap agreements could therefore increase the City’s total debt
service. Also, if at the time of the termination, the swaps have a negative fair value, the City would
be liable to the counterparty for a payment equal to such negative fair value. As of June 30, 2014
the swap had a negative fair value of $21,144.
Swap Payments and Associated Debt:
Using a variable rate range between 1.93% and 5.25% the Series 2009 Financing Authority Energy
Independence Program Variable Rate Demand Lease Revenue Bonds, as of June 30, 2014, debt
service requirements of the Certificates and the swap payments through the termination date of
September 1, 2015, assuming a current interest rate of 1.93% are as follows. As rates vary, the
variable rate interest payments and net swap payments will vary.

8. DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN:
The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal
Revenue Code Section 457. The plan, available to all City employees, permits them to defer a
portion of their salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to employees
until termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency. Pursuant to changes in August
1996, of IRC Section 457, in January 1997, the City established a trust in which all assets held by
Nationwide Retirement Solutions, Inc. (NRS) and ICMA Retirement Corporation (ICMA) were
placed. The City does not have fiduciary responsibility for the plan assets held by NRS and ICMA.
The assets, all property and rights purchased with such amounts and all income attributable to such
amounts are held in trust for the exclusive benefit of the participants and the beneficiaries. The
assets are no longer the property of the City, and as such, are no longer subject to the claims of the
City's general creditors. As a result, the assets in the amount of $11,833,005 held by NRS and
ICMA of the 457 Plan are not reflected in the City’s financial statements.
9. PENSION PLAN:
a. Plan Description:
The City of Palm Desert contributes to the California Public Employees Retirement System
(CalPERS), an agent multiple-employer public employee defined benefit pension plan.
CalPERS provides retirement and disability benefits, annual cost-of-living adjustments and
death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. CalPERS acts as a common investment and
administrative agent for participating public entities within the State of California. Benefit
provisions and all other requirements are established by state statute and city ordinance. Copies
of CalPERS' annual financial report may be obtained from their executive office: 400 Q Street,
Sacramento, CA 95814.
b. Funding Policy:
Participants are required to contribute 8% of their annual covered salary. The Participants
contribute 100% of required CalPERS participant share. The City is required to contribute at an
actuarially determined rate; the rate for fiscal year 2013-2014, was 26.548% for non-safety
employees of annual covered payroll. The contribution requirements of plan members and the
City are established and may be amended by CalPERS.

9. PENSION PLAN (CONTINUED):
c. Annual Pension Cost:
For 2014, the City's annual pension cost of $3,994,594 for CalPERS was equal to the City's
required and actual contributions. The required contribution was determined as part of the
June 30, 2013, actuarial valuation using the entry age normal actuarial cost method. The
actuarial assumptions included: a) 7.5% investment rate of return (net of administrative
expenses), b) projected annual salary increases of 3.3% to 14.2% depending on age, service and
type of employment, and c) 3.0% per year cost-of-living adjustments. Both a) and b) included
an inflation component of 2.75%. The actuarial value of CalPERS’ assets was determined using
techniques that smooth the effects of short-term volatility in the market value of investments
over a three-year period (smoothed market value). CalPERS' unfunded actuarial accrued
liability is being amortized as a level percentage of projected payroll on a closed basis that
depends on the plan's entry into CalPERS. The remaining amortization period was 20 years.

e. Schedule of Funding Progress for CalPERS:
As of June 30, 2013, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was 62.9% funded. The
actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $103.06 million, and the actuarial value of assets
was $64.82 million, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of
$38.24 million. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan)
was $10.79 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 354.5%.
The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following
the notes to basic financial statements, presents multi-year trend information about whether the
actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial
accrued liability for benefits.

Fund Balances (Continued)
The fund balances reported on the fund statements now consist of the following categories:
Nonspendable - This classification includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either
(a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted - This classification includes amounts that can be spent only for specific purposes
stipulated by constitution, external resource providers or through enabling legislation.
Committed - This classification includes amounts that can be used only for the specific purposes
determined by a formal action of the City Council. The City considers the adoption of a resolution
to institute a formal action of City Council for the purpose of establishing, modifying or rescinding
committed fund balances.
Assigned - This classification includes amounts to be used by the government for specific purposes
but do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. This includes amounts that
are assigned through adoption of a resolution by City Council. The Council may delegate the
ability of an employee or committee to assign uses of specific funds, for specific purposes. Such
delegation of authority has not yet been granted to persons or bodies other than the City Council.
Unassigned - This classification includes the residual balance for the government’s general fund
and includes all spendable amounts not contained in other classifications. In other funds, the
unassigned classification is used only to report a deficit balance resulting from overspending for
specific purposes for which amounts had been restricted, committed or assigned.
When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund
balances are available, the City’s policy is to apply restricted fund balance first.
When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which committed, assigned or unassigned fund
balances are available, the City’s policy is to apply committed fund balance first, then assigned
fund balance, and finally unassigned fund balance.

11. RISK MANAGEMENT:
a. Description of Self-Insurance Pool Pursuant to Joint Powers Agreement:
The City of Palm Desert a member of the California Joint Powers Insurance Authority
(Authority). The Authority is composed of 119 California public entities and is organized
under a joint powers agreement pursuant to California Government Code §6500 et seq. The
purpose of the Authority is to arrange and administer programs for the pooling of self-insured
losses, to purchase excess insurance or reinsurance, and to arrange for group purchased
insurance for property and other lines of coverage. The Authority began covering claims of its
members in 1978. Each member government has an elected official as its representative on the
Board of Directors which operates through a 9-member Executive Committee.
b. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority:
Each member pays an annual contribution to cover estimated losses for the coverage period.
This initial funding is paid at the beginning of the coverage period. After the close of the
coverage period, outstanding claims are valued. A retrospective deposit computation is then
conducted annually thereafter until all claims incurred during the coverage period are closed on
a pool-wide basis. This subsequent cost re-allocation among members based on actual claim
development can result in adjustments of either refunds or additional deposits required.
The total funding requirement for self-insurance programs is estimated using actuarial models
and pre-funded through the annual contribution. Costs are allocated to individual agencies
based on exposure (payroll) and experience (claims) relative to other members of the
risk-sharing pool. Additional information regarding the cost allocation methodology is
provided below.
Liability
In the liability program, claims are pooled separately between police and non-police exposures.
(1) The payroll of each member is evaluated relative to the payroll of other members. A variable
credibility factor is determined for each member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll
and the weight applied to losses within the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred
costs up to $30,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total
incurred costs within the first layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from
$30,000 to $750,000 for each occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total
incurred costs within the second layer. (4) Incurred costs in excess of $750,000 up to the
reinsurance attachment point of $5 million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation
within the first and second loss layers.
See independent auditors’ report.

b. Self-Insurance Programs of the Authority (Continued):
Liability (Continued)
(5) Costs of covered claims for $5 million to $10 million are paid under a reinsurance contract
subject to a $2.5 million annual aggregate deductible. The $2.5 million annual aggregate
deductible is fully covered under a separate policy; as such no portion of it is retained by the
Authority. Costs of covered claims from $10 million to $15 million are paid under two reinsurance
contracts subject to a combined $3 million annual aggregate deductible. The $3 million annual
aggregate deductible is fully retained by the Authority. (6) Costs of covered claims from
$15 million up to $20 million are paid under reinsurance agreements. (7) Costs of covered claims
from $20 million to $50 million are paid under excess insurance policies.
The overall coverage limit for each member including all layers of coverage is $50 million per
occurrence.
Costs of covered claims for subsidence losses are paid by reinsurance and excess insurance with a
pooled sub-limit of $30 million per occurrence. This $30 million subsidence sub-limit is composed
of (a) $5 million retained within the pool’s SIR, (b) $15 million in reinsurance, subject to the same
annual aggregate deductibles previously stated, and (c) $10 million in excess insurance. The excess
insurance layer has a $10 million annual aggregate.
Workers’ Compensation
In the workers’ compensation program claims are pooled separately between public safety
(police and fire) and non public-safety exposures. (1) The payroll of each member is evaluated
relative to the payroll of other members. A variable credibility factor is determined for each
member, which establishes the weight applied to payroll and the weight applied to losses
within the formula. (2) The first layer of losses includes incurred costs up to $50,000 for each
occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the first
layer. (3) The second layer of losses includes incurred costs from $50,000 to $100,000 for each
occurrence and is evaluated as a percentage of the pool’s total incurred costs within the second
layer. (4) Incurred costs in excess of $100,000 up to the reinsurance attachment point of
$2 million are distributed based on the outcome of cost allocation within the first and second
loss layers. (5) Costs of covered claims from $2 million up to statutory limits are paid under a
reinsurance policy. Protection is provided per statutory liability under California Worker’s
Compensation Law.
Employer’s Liability losses are pooled among members to $2 million. Coverage from
$2 million to $5 million is purchased as part of a reinsurance policy, and Employer’s Liability
losses from $5 million to $10 million are pooled among members.

c. Purchased Insurance:
Property Insurance
The City of Palm Desert participates in the all-risk property protection program of the
Authority. This insurance protection is underwritten by several insurance companies. The City
of Palm Desert’s property is currently insured according to a schedule of covered property
submitted by the City of Palm Desert to the Authority. The City of Palm Desert’s property
currently has all-risk property insurance protection in the amount of $217,408,986. There is a
$5,000 deductible per occurrence except for non-emergency vehicle insurance, which has a
$1,000 deductible. Premiums for the coverage are paid annually and are not subject to
retrospective adjustments.
Crime Insurance
The City of Palm Desert purchases crime insurance coverage in the amount of $10,000,000
with a $2,500 deductible. The fidelity coverage is provided through the Authority. Premiums
are paid annually and are not subject to retroactive adjustments.
Special Event Tenant User Liability Insurance
The City of Palm Desert further protects against liability damages by requiring tenant users of
certain property to purchase low-cost tenant user liability insurance for certain activities on
City property. The insurance premium is paid by the tenant user and is paid to the City of Palm
Desert according to a schedule. The City of Palm Desert then pays for the insurance. The
insurance is arranged by the Authority.
d. Adequacy of Protection:
During the past three fiscal years, none of the above programs of protection experienced
settlements or judgments that exceeded pooled or insured coverage. There were no significant
reductions in pooled or insured liability coverage in the fiscal year 2013-14.

b. Funding Policy:
The contribution requirements of plan members and the City are established and may be
amended by the City, City Council, and/or the employee associations. Currently, contributions
are not required from plan members. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2014, the City
contributed $776,318 to the plan, which included $324,154 of the annual required contribution
and $452,164 pay-as-you-go premiums. The purpose of these contributions is to cover the
required City contribution rate of 2.96% of annual covered payroll (annual payroll of active
employees covered by the plan) and to prefund benefits. As a result, the City calculated and
recorded a Net OPEB Asset, representing the difference between the Annual Required
Contribution (ARC) and actual contributions, as presented below:

The contribution rate of 2.96% is based on the ARC of $324,154, an amount actuarially
determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45. The ARC
represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis is projected to cover the annual
normal cost and the amortization of unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities (or funding excess)
over a thirty year period.

d. Funded Status and Funding Progress:
As of June 30, 2013, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the plan was 86% funded. The
actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $11.23 million, and the actuarial value of assets was
$9.71 million, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $1.52 million.
The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the plan) was
$9.67 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 16%.
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and
assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include
assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts
determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the
City are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and
new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as
required supplementary information following the notes to basic financial statements, presents
multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or
decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.
e. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions:
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan and
include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation. The actuarial methods and
assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term
volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets consistent with the
long-term perspective of the calculations.
In the June 30, 2013 actuarial valuation, the entry age normal actuarial cost method was used.
The actuarial assumptions included a 7.06% investment rate of return (net of administrative
expenses) and an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 7.5% in 2015, reduced by decrements to
an ultimate rate of 5% in 2020. A 3.0% per annum in aggregate in future salaries is also
assumed in the valuation. The City’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability will be amortized as
a level percentage of projected covered payroll on a closed basis. The amortization period at
June 30, 2014, was 24 years.

The City has Special Assessment Bonds Payable issued under the 1911 and 1915, Special
Improvement Acts and the 1982 Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act (1982 Bonds). The City has
no liability to 1911 Act bondholders until assessments have been collected from the property
owner. Such liability is then recorded in the Agency Funds. Therefore, the 1911 Bonds are not
recorded as liabilities in the accompanying financial statements.
The City also has no liability to the 1915 Act bondholders or the bondholders of bonds issued
under the 1982 Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act until assessments are collected on the tax
rolls. However, the City may take certain actions to assume secondary liability for all or part of
1915 Act Bonds and the 1982 Bonds until such time as foreclosure proceedings are consummated.
Special assessment bonds payable, as described below, and are not recorded as long-term
liabilities, as these obligations do not constitute a debt or obligation of the City.
2003 Assessment Revenue Bonds
In June 2003, the Palm Desert Financing Authority issued $4,423,000 in 2003 Assessment
Revenue Bonds. The proceeds were used to purchase three series of limited obligation
improvement bonds issued by the City in connection with the financing and refinancing of certain
improvements of benefit to property within the City’s Assessment District No. 94-2 (Sunterrace),
Assessment District No. 94-3 (Merano) and Silver Spur Ranch Utility Undergrounding Assessment
District No. 01-01. These bonds were issued under the 1915 Improvement Bond Act to provide
funds for public improvements in the respective assessment districts.

18. RECENT CHANGES IN LEGISLATION AFFECTING CALIFORNIA REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCIES:
The 2011 Dissolution Act required each California redevelopment agency to suspend nearly all
activities except to implement existing contracts, meet already-incurred obligations, preserve its
assets and prepare for impending dissolution.
In 2012 AB 1484 made technical and substantive amendments to the Dissolution Act based on
experience to-date at the state and local level in implementing the Dissolution Act.
Under the Dissolution Act, each California redevelopment agency (each a “Dissolved RDA”) was
dissolved as of February 1, 2012, and the sponsoring community that formed the Dissolved RDA,
together with other designated entities, have initiated the process under the Dissolution Act to
unwind the affairs of the Dissolved RDA. A successor agency was created for each Dissolved RDA
which is the sponsoring community of the Dissolved RDA unless it elected not to serve as the
successor agency. On August 25, 2011, the City elected to serve as the Successor Agency to the
Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency (the Successor Agency).
On February 9, 2012, the City Council of the City, acting as the governing body of the Successor
Agency, established rules and regulations for the operations of the Successor Agency to assume
these successor functions pursuant to Resolution No. SA-RDA001. Although the Board of
Directors of the Successor Agency is comprised of the same individuals as the City Council of the
City, subdivision (g) of Section 34173 of the Dissolution Act, added by AB 1484, expressly
affirms that the Successor Agency is a separate public entity from the City, that the two entities
shall not merge, and that the liabilities of the former redevelopment agency will not be transferred
to the City nor will the assets of the former redevelopment agency become assets of the City.

18. RECENT CHANGES IN LEGISLATION AFFECTING CALIFORNIA REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCIES (CONTINUED):
The Dissolution Act requires the establishment of an oversight board for each successor agency.
Under the Dissolution Act, certain successor agency actions must first be approved by the
oversight board, and the oversight board is also required to direct the successor agency to take
certain actions in connection with the wind down of the affairs of the Dissolved RDA. The role of
each successor agency and oversight boards is to administer the wind down of each Dissolved
RDA which includes making payments due on enforceable obligations, disposing of the assets
(other than housing assets) and remitting the unencumbered balances of the Dissolved RDAs to the
County Auditor-Controller for distribution to the affected taxing entities.
The Dissolution Act allowed the sponsoring community that formed the Dissolved RDA to elect to
assume the housing functions and take over the housing assets of the Dissolved RDA. If the
sponsoring community does not elect to become the Successor Housing Agency and assume the
Dissolved RDA’s housing functions, such housing functions and all related housing assets will be
transferred to the local housing authority in the jurisdiction. AB 1484 modified and provided some
clarifications on the treatment of housing assets under the Dissolution Act. The City of Palm
Desert elected on February 9, 2012 to transfer the responsibility to serve as the Housing Successor
Agency to the Palm Desert Housing Authority.
After the date of dissolution, the housing assets, obligations, and activities of the Dissolved RDA
were transferred and are reported in the Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund in fiscal
year 2011-2012. In fiscal year 2012-2013, the assets and obligations of the former low and
moderate income housing fund were transferred to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset
Special Revenue Fund. The transfer was reported as an extraordinary loss in the financial
statements of the City. All other assets, obligations, and activities of the Dissolved RDA have been
transferred and are reported in a fiduciary fund (private-purpose trust fund) in the financial
statements of the City.
The Dissolution Act and AB 1484 also establish roles for the County Auditor-Controller (the
“CAC”), the California Department of Finance (the “DOF”) and the California State Controller’s
office in the dissolution process and the satisfaction of enforceable obligations of the Dissolved
RDAs.
The County Auditor-Controller is charged with establishing a Redevelopment Property Tax Trust
Fund (the “RPTTF”) for each Successor Agency and depositing into the RPTTF for each sixmonth period the amount of property taxes that would have been redevelopment property tax
increment had the Dissolved RDA not been dissolved. The deposit in the RPTTF fund is to be used
to pay to the Successor Agency the amounts due on the Successor Agency’s enforceable
obligations received in January and June.

18. RECENT CHANGES IN LEGISLATION AFFECTING CALIFORNIA REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCIES (CONTINUED):
The Successor Agency is required to prepare a recognized obligation payment schedule (the
“ROPS”) approved by the oversight board setting forth the amounts due for each enforceable
obligation during each six month period. The ROPS is submitted to the CAC & DOF for
consideration. The CAC will make payments to the Successor Agency from the RPTTF fund based
on the ROPS amount approved by the DOF. The ROPS is prepared in advance for the enforceable
obligations due over the next six months.
As part of the dissolution process AB1484 required the Successor Agency to have due diligence
reviews of both the low and moderate income housing funds and all other funds to be completed by
October 15, 2012 and January 15, 2013 to compute the funds (cash) which were not needed by the
Successor Agency to be retained to pay for existing enforceable obligations. These funds were to
be remitted to the CAC after the DOF completed its review of the due diligence reviews. The
Successor Agency paid a total amount of $40,988,399 to the County of Riverside based on the final
determination by the Department of Finance.
The DOF issued a Finding of Completion on May 15, 2013 in which DOF concurred that the
Successor Agency has made full payments of any payments required as a result of the due
diligence reviews. The Finding of Completion allows the placement of loan agreements between
the former redevelopment agency and the City on the ROPS, as an enforceable obligation,
provided the oversight board makes a finding that the loan was for legitimate redevelopment
purposes. Loan repayments could begin in the 2014-15 fiscal year as governed by the criteria in the
health and code safety section. When the repayments begin, 20% of the repayments of the loan
agreement amounts are to be allocated to the Low Moderate Housing Asset Special Revenue Fund.
At June 30, 2013, the long-term advances totaled $22,655,000. In the financial statements
$9,236,000 is reported in the General Fund and $13,419,000 is reported in Other Governmental
Funds. An offset of 20% has been reported as due to other funds in the respective funds totaling
$4,531,000.
The State Controller of the State of California has been directed to review the propriety of any
transfers of assets between Dissolved RDA and other public bodies that occurred after
January 1, 2011. If the public body that received such transfers is not contractually committed to a
third party for the expenditure or encumbrance of those assets, the State Controller is required to
order the available assets to be transferred to the public body designated as the successor agency.
The State Controller’s completed its review on March 14, 2013 and did not identify any
unallowable transfers of assets that occurred during the audit between the former RDA, the City
and or other public agencies.

18. RECENT CHANGES IN LEGISLATION AFFECTING CALIFORNIA REDEVELOPMENT
AGENCIES (CONTINUED):
The Successor Agency’s use and disposition of all properties held (Long Range Property
Management Plan), (the LRPMP), was approved by the California Department of Finance on
June 2, 2014. The LRPMP allowed the Successor Agency to transfer property used for
government purposes with a cost basis of $6,390,263 to the City.
Management believes, in consultation with legal counsel, that the obligations of the Dissolved
RDA due to the City, with respect to loans, are valid enforceable obligations payable by the
Successor Agency under the requirements of the Dissolution Act and AB 1484 upon approval by
the oversight board and Department of Finance. It is reasonably possible that a legal determination
may be made at a later date by an appropriate judicial authority that would resolve this issue
unfavorably to the City.
19. SUCCESSOR AGENCY DISCLOSURES:
The assets and liabilities of the dissolved Redevelopment Agency were transferred to the Successor
Agency to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency on February 1, 2012 as a result of the
dissolution of the former Redevelopment Agency. The Successor Agency is acting in a fiduciary
capacity for the assets and liabilities. Disclosures related to these transactions are as follows:
Notes Receivable
On April 21, 2003, the Agency entered into a loan agreement with The Regents of the University
of California, on behalf of its Riverside Campus, to loan various amounts over a period of time, not
to exceed an aggregate amount of $2,000,000. Proceeds of the loan are to be used for capital
improvements at the University’s Riverside Campus. The outstanding principal balance and
interest on the note is due in five annual payments beginning on July 15, 2009. This note was paid
off during the fiscal year.

The advances from the General Fund, Capital Projects Reserve Fund and Other Governmental
Funds were made to the Successor Agency, (former Redevelopment Agency) for capital
improvements. The advances from the Housing Authority Special Revenue Fund to the Successor
Agency (former Redevelopment Agency) were made to cover the SERAF payment.
AB 1484 specifies the actions to be taken and the method of repayment for advances by the
Successor Agency (former Redevelopment Agency) to the various funds of the City. Upon
application and approval by the successor agency and approval by the oversight board, loan
agreements (advances) entered into by former redevelopment agency and the city shall be deemed
to be enforceable obligations provided that the oversight board makes a finding that the advances
were for legitimate redevelopment purposes. The accumulated interest on the remaining amount of
advances will be recalculated from origination at the interest rate earned by funds deposited into
the Local Agency Investment Fund.
The advances are to be repaid with a defined schedule over a reasonable term of years at an interest
rate not to exceed the interest rate earned by the funds deposited into the Local Agency Investment
Fund. The annual advances repayments are subject to certain limitations. Advance repayments
shall not be prior to the 2014-2015 fiscal year, are subject to a formula distribution, and have a
lower priority for repayment as described in AB 1484 (Health and Safety Code Section
34191.4(2)(A).

Advances To/From the City of Palm Desert (Continued)
The advances related to the borrowing for the SERAF payment have a priority over repayment of
the other advances. 20% of the repayment of the other advances not related to the SERAF advances
shall be deducted and transferred to the Low and Moderate Income Housing Asset Fund (Housing
Authority). Management believes, in consultation with legal counsel, that the obligations of the
Dissolved RDA due to the City are valid enforceable obligations payable by the Successor Agency
under the requirements of the Dissolution Act and AB 1484 and has not recorded an allowance for
uncollectible advances. The City’s position on this issue is not a position of settled law and there is
considerable legal uncertainty regarding this issue. It is reasonably possible that a legal
determination may be made at a later date by an appropriate judicial authority that would not be in
favor of the City.

Tax Allocation bonds used for capital improvements are special obligations of the Agency and the
Financing Authority (a component unit of the Agency) and are secured by an irrevocable pledge of
tax revenues and other funds as provided under the Bond Resolution. The bonds and any interest
thereon are not a debt of the City, the State of California or any of its political subdivisions, and
neither the City, the State of California nor any of its political subdivisions is liable on the bonds,
nor in any event shall the bonds and interest thereon be payable out of any funds or properties other
than those provided under the Bond Resolution. The Agency purchased insurance from Ambac
Assurance Corporation (Ambac) and MBIA Insurance Corporation (MBIA) for the purpose of
enhancing the creditworthiness of the bonds.

California Health and Safety Code Section 34177(i) requires successor agencies to use bond
proceeds for the purposes for which bonds were sold unless the purposes can no longer be
achieved, in which case the proceeds may be used to defease the bonds. Although the powers of
successor agencies are severely restricted under the Dissolution Act in terms of ability to enter into
new contracts, California Health and Safety Code Section 34191.4, added by AB 1484, appears to
provide additional guidance and authority. Pursuant to Section 34191.4, if the Successor Agency
receives a finding of completion from the California Department of Finance, which is predicated
upon completion of a number of required payments and transfer in furtherance of the wind down
process under the Dissolution Act, notwithstanding any other provision of law, bond proceeds
derived from bonds issued on or before December 31, 2010 that are in excess of the amounts
needed to satisfy approved enforceable obligations must thereafter be expended in a manner
consistent with the original bond covenants and may include the expenditure of funds to complete
the projects that are the subject of the enforceable obligations or the creation of reserves therefore.
Additionally, there is a statement in the Dissolution Act that expenditures made pursuant to this
provision shall constitute the creation of excess bond proceeds obligations to be paid from the
excess proceeds. As this is a new provision of law, there is considerable legal uncertainty
regarding the actual application of this provision. In any event, if remaining bond proceeds cannot
be spent in a manner consistent with the bond covenants, Section 34191.4 additionally provides
that the remaining bond proceeds must be used to defease the bonds or to purchase those same
outstanding bonds on the open market for cancellation. The Successor Agency received a finding
of completion in a letter dated May 15, 2013 from the California Department of Finance which
allowed the Successor Agency to utilize proceeds from bonds issued prior to January 1, 2011 in a
manner consistent with the original bond covenants.

On November 8, 2010, Ambac Financial Group, Inc. (“Ambac Group”), whose principal operating
subsidiary, Ambac Assurance Corporation, is a guarantor of public finance and structured finance
obligations, announced that it filed for a voluntary petition for relief under Chapter 11 of the United
States Bankruptcy Code (“Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern
District of New York (“Bankruptcy Court”). Ambac Group will continue to operate in the ordinary
course of business as “debtor-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in
accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and the orders of the Bankruptcy
Court. On May 1, 2013, Ambac Group completed its financial restructuring and emerged from
Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
On February 18, 2009, MBIA announced the restructuring of its financial guaranty insurance
operations into two separately capitalized sister companies, with one entity (MBIA Illinois) assuming
the risk associated with its US municipal exposures, and the other (MBIA Corp) insuring the remainder
of the portfolio. Subsequent to the restructuring of MBIA, Moody’s Investor Service (Moody’s) assign
ratings to the reinsured municipal securities based on the higher of (a) the insurance financial strength
rating of MBIA Illinois, to ‘Baa1’; or (b) the published underlying rating. Subsequent to the
restructuring of MBIA, S&P assigned its insurance financial strength rating of MBIA Illinois to ‘AAminus’. Effective March 19, 2009, MBIA Illinois was renamed National Public Finance Guarantee
Corporation (“NPFGC”).
National Public Finance Guarantee Corporation (formerly MBIA Illinois), an insurance subsidiary of
MBIA, which assumes the risk associated with U.S. municipal exposures, financial strength credit
ratings was raised to A3 on May 31, 2014 by Moody’s.
The Redevelopment Plans for the Dissolved RDA’s project areas set forth certain limitations on the
maximum aggregate amount of tax increment that the Dissolved RDA could have received with
respect to each project area, or if applicable, each component area of the project area (each, a “TI
Cap”). Upon reaching the TI Cap, the Dissolved RDA would not be able to receive any additional
tax increment derived from the project area (or component area, as the case may be) to pay
outstanding debt. Based on projections done before the enactment of the Dissolution Act, the
Dissolved RDA expected that the TI Cap for the Amended Territory of Project Area No. 1 would
be reached around fiscal year 2021-22, before the final maturity date of the bonds issued for
Project Area No. 1. The Dissolved RDA planned and expected to use excess tax increment from
Project Area No. 1 to call bonds before reaching the TI Cap to avoid any bond defaults. After the
enactment of the Dissolution Act, it is uncertain whether the TI Cap is still in effect and, if so, how
to properly calculate whether the TI Cap has been reached. (For example, it is unclear if the
calculation should be based on the total deposit into the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund
(“RPTTF”) or on the actual dollar received by the Successor Agency for enforceable obligations).

In light of the uncertainties regarding the TI Cap, the Successor Agency requested to retain moneys
on hand to enable it to pay or redeem Project Area No. 1 bonds, as part of the Other Funds and
Account Due Diligence Review (the “DDR”). The DDR was mandated by AB 1484 to determine
the amount of unencumbered funds that the Successor Agency had on hand to remit to the County
Auditor-Controller for distribution to taxing entities. In the DOF’s May 5, 2013 determination
letter regarding the DDR, the DOF denied the Successor Agency’s request to retain funds in light
of the TI Cap, stating that it is the DOF’s “expectation that ABx1 26/AB 1484 allow enforceable
obligations to be listed on the ROPS and payable out of available RPTTF until such obligation has
been satistied”.
Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”) has lowered its underlying rating from “A”
to “A-“ on the following issues of bonds issued by the Authority: (i) the Authority’s Tax Allocation
Revenue Bonds (Project Area No. 1, as Amended), 2006 Series A (the “2006A Authority Bonds”),
(ii) the Authority’s Tax Allocation Refunding Revenue Bonds (Project Area No. 1, as Amended),
2006 Series B (Taxable) (the “2006B Authority Bonds”, and together with the 2006A Authority Bonds,
the “2006 Authority Bonds”), and (iii) the Authority’s Tax Allocation Refunding Revenue Bonds
(Project Area No. 1, as Amended), 2007 Series A (the “2007 Authority Bonds”).
2002 Series A Tax Allocation Refunding Revenue Bonds (Project Area No. 1, as amended)
On March 13, 2002, the Palm Desert Financing Authority issued $22,070,000 of Tax Allocation
Refunding Revenue Bonds (Project Area No. 1, as amended) 2002 Series A. The proceeds from the
bonds were loaned to the Palm Desert Redevelopment Agency. A portion of the proceeds of the
loan was used to prepay the prior loan, which affected the current refunding of a like portion of the
prior bonds. The remainder was used to fund various redevelopment capital projects of the Agency
in Project Area No. 1. The bonds consist of $10,905,000 term bonds at 5.00% due April 1, 2025,
and $11,165,000 term bonds at 5.10% due April 1, 2030. Interest is payable semi-annually on
April 1 and October 1. Mandatory sinking fund redemptions begin April 1, 2024.

NOTE TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
June 30, 2014
BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING:
The City used the following procedures in establishing the budgetary data reported in the financial
statements:
1. Before the beginning of the fiscal year, the City Manager submits to the City Council a
proposed budget for the year commencing the following July 1.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments.
3. The budget is subsequently adopted through passage of a resolution.
4. Expenditures for the General Fund cannot exceed amounts budgeted at the departmental level,
which is the legal level of control.
For other funds, expenditures cannot exceed the total amount budgeted for each fund, which is
the legal level of control. The City Manager is authorized to transfer appropriations (without
council approval) between an object of a General Fund Department. The City Council
approves all other changes. Annual appropriation amounts lapse at year-end.
5. Encumbrances and continuing appropriations are rebudgeted as of July 1, by Council action.
6. Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America for all governmental funds except for certain special revenue
funds and capital projects funds, which adopt project length budgets and debt service funds that
are not budgeted as effectively budgetary control is achieved through debt indenture provisions.
The following special revenue funds had legally adopted budgets during the current fiscal year:
Major Fund
Prop A Fire Tax
Other Governmental Funds
Traffic Safety
Gas Tax
Housing Mitigation Fees
Community Development Block Grant
Public Safety Police Grants
El Paseo Assessment District
Landscape and Lighting District No. 1-17

GENERAL FUND
The General Fund is used to account for all financial resources traditionally associated with
government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. It is the primary operating fund
that includes the operating budgets for all the departments and the majority of the City’s tax revenues.

Notes: Property Taxes in Riverside County are subject to the State of California's Proposition 13, Jarvis-Gann Initiative which allows reappraisals of real property only
when there is a change in ownership or new construction takes place. Further, the proposition limits property assessment increase to no more than two(2%) percent
annually. Property is assessed at one hundred percent (100%) of its fair market value at the time of new construction or change in ownership.
The tax rate is one (1%) percent of the assessed value.

(1) City of Palm Desert is on the "Teeter Plan" with the County of Riverside. The first payment was
received in the fiscal year 1993/94.
(2) City of Palm Desert is a "No-Low Property Tax City". Proposition 13 rolled the tax rates back to 1973
which is when the City of Palm Desert incorporated and the Property Tax rates were zero.
Based on current state law the County allocates 7% of the 1% assessed values within the City less the
Redevelopment Agency tax increment. Fiscal Year 1992/93 was the first year to receive the No/Low taxes.
(3) Fiscal Year 1996/97 final total collected includes adjustments for No-Low property
tax collections from prior years modified by the County of Riverside. The County adjusted the payment to
the City of Palm Desert (FY 1995/96) for the annexation of Palm Desert Country Club.
(4) Includes tax collections accrued as of June 30, 2014.
(5) Includes amounts receivable for tax year 2013-2014 along with prior receivables due for prior tax years.
