94 INTRODUCTORY SECTION f � Town of Westlake February 22, 2011 Honorable Mayor, Council Members and the Citizens of the Town of Westlake, The Town of Westlake (the "Town") Fiscal and Budgetary Policies require that the Town's Finance Department prepare a complete set of financial statements presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by a firm of licensed certified public accountants. Accordingly, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the Town of Westlake, Texas for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, is hereby issued. This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the Town. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making representations, the Town established a comprehensive internal control framework that was designed both to protect the Town's assets from loss, theft or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the Town's financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the Town's comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatements. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. The Town's financial statements have been audited by Pattillo, Brown and Hill LLP, Independent Certified Public Accountants. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the Town for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, were free of material misstatements. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion that the Town's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010, were fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditors'report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of management's discussion and analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to 3 Village Circle 4202 •Westlake,Texas 76262 Metro: 817-430-0941 •Fax: 817-430-1812 •www.westlake-tx.org i compliment, and should be read in conjunction with the MD&A. The Town of Westlake's MD&A can be found immediately following the independent auditor's report. Profile of the Town Minutes from downtown Fort Worth, Texas and DFW International Airport, the Town of Westlake is home to Town of several upscale residential communities and Fortune 500 Westlake *'114 635 companies, all of which share a unique character and 35 377 VFWcharm, along with a commitment to excellence. The 820 ss Town is located in northeast Tarrant County and may be SBO conveniently accessed by several major thoroughfares, Fort Worth Dallas ¢� including SH 114 and US 377. The Town occupies , approximately 7 square miles and serves a population of approximately 850 with the average appraised home value at $1.2 million. The Town, incorporated in 1956, is considered a Type A general-law municipality and has the power by state statute to extend its corporate town limits by annexation, which is done periodically when deemed appropriate by the Council. The Town operates under the Council-Manager form of government. The Council is comprised of a mayor and five (5) council members and is responsible for, among other things, passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees, and hiring the Town Manager. The Town Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the Council, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the Town and appointing and supervising heads of various departments. The Mayor and Town Council members serve two (2) year terms. All elected officials are elected at-large. The financial reporting entity (the government) includes all funds of the primary government (i.e. the Town of Westlake), as well as all of its component units. Component units are legally separate entities for which the primary government is financially accountable. The following entities are considered blended component units: Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation is a Texas nonprofit corporation that acts on behalf of the Town to further the public purposes under the Public Facilities Corporation Act, as it's duly constituted authority and instrumentality. The board of directors, appointed by the Town's governing body, is comprised of seven members, of whom five must be members of the Town's governing body. 4B Economic Development Corporation is a Texas nonprofit industrial corporation under the Development Corporation Act of 1979 formed to promote economic development within the Town and the State of Texas in order to eliminate unemployment and underemployment, and to promote and encourage employment and the public welfare of, for, and on behalf of the Town by developing, implementing, financing, and providing one or more projects defined and permitted under Section 4B of the Act. The board of directors is composed of seven persons appointed by the members of the Town's governing board. Four of the members of the board of directors are members of the Town's governing board. Westlake Academy (Academy) is an open-enrollment charter school, as provided by Subchapter D, Chapter 12, of the Texas Education Code. The Town of Westlake ("Charter Holder") applied for and became the first municipality in Texas to ever receive this special charter designation. The Academy ii currently has 520 students and serves Kindergarten thru 12th grade. The Academy graduated their first class in FY 2009-2010. The Board consists of six (6) trustees and is appointed by the Town's governing body. Currently, all members of the board of trustees are members of the Town's governing body. The Academy's year-end is August 31. Discretely presented component units are legally separate entities and not part of the primary government's operations. These component units are as follows: Texas Student Housing Authority- Ballpark Austin Project, Texas Student Housing Corporation-The Ridge at North Texas Project, Texas Student Housing Authority-Town Lake Austin Project, Texas Student Housing Authority- College Station Project, and Texas Student Housing Authority. Services Provided The Town provides to its citizens those services that have proven to be necessary and meaningful and which the Town can provide for the least amount of cost. Major services provided under the general government and enterprise functions are: Fire and emergency medical services, police, water and sewer utility services, park and recreational facilities, street improvements, education and administrative services. Economic Conditions and Outlook The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood when it is considered from the broader of the specific environment within which the Town operates. Local Economy There is no question that Texas, and especially the Fort Worth-Dallas Metroplex, has fared better than most of the country in the current recession. Nonetheless, the Town of Westlake has been affected by the current economic downturn, as have other municipalities across our area, state, and nation. This current economic downturn has negatively affected our Town's budget due to its heavy reliance on sales tax revenue to fund Town services and our debt obligations. Sales tax can be a very viable revenue source during stable economic times. However, since it is a volitional tax, i.e. - paid when someone decides to buy a service or product, during times of economic down turn it often declines. During FY 2009-2010 the following milestones and strategic priorities were achieved: • Construction on the $15 Million Phase 1 FM 1938 (Precinct Line Rd) Improvements Project commenced. This will be a major north/south arterial roadway which will greatly enhance mobility for this region, our residents, and employees of Westlake businesses. It will have a major impact on future business attraction and economic development in Westlake. • Occupancy of Fidelity Regional Headquarters Phase II began. • The Town's Five (5) Year Strategic Plan was reviewed for progress with the Town Council during the fiscal year with significant time spent by the Council and staff on addressing the Town's long term financial sustainability, a key part of the Strategic Plan. • The Town received a Scenic Cities designation as a Gold level Scenic City, a marked distinction given only to cities with codes, ordinances, and plans that encourage, create, and maintain a high standard of pleasing community appearance, aesthetics, and community livability. iii • The Stagecoach Hills Subdivision Drainage Improvements Project was completed and Phase 1 water distribution system improvements for the Stagecoach Hills Subdivision began. • A Five (5) Year Comprehensive Capital Improvement Plan was adopted by the Town Council. • The Town continued to receive recognition for the transparency and high quality of its financial reporting, receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting as well as the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Governmental Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for both its FY 2008-2009 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR), also known as the annual audit and its FY 2009-2010 Budget. • The new $5.1 Million Sam and Margaret Lee Arts & Sciences Center at Westlake Academy was opened and operated for the 2009-2010 school year. • Ground was broken and construction began on the $300 million Deloitte University project which is on schedule and set to open in Fall 2011. • The Terra Bella and Solana trail systems were linked with a connection on Sam School Road. • Westlake's first gas well was successfully drilled in Solana under the standards and requirements of the Town's Oil and Gas Drilling/Production Ordinance adopted in 2009. • The Town's second Direction Finders (Citizens') Survey was conducted and the results were compared to the 2009 results as well as used to help guide the FY 2010-2011 budget preparation process. • New Westlake e-Tube Videos were launched on the Town web site. • New home construction began in the Town's newest residential neighborhood, Terra Bella. • For the second consecutive year, the Town continued its "Westlake Windows" initiative for transparent government with citizen outreach meetings held in every Westlake Neighborhood. • Westlake was the recipient of a Municipal Excellence Award for Management Innovation from the Texas Municipal League for the cities of 25,000 populations or less, recognizing the Town's multi-faceted, low cost citizen engagement program entitled Westlake Windows: TGIF (transparent government in focus). Sales tax collections increased by 3.4% for fiscal year 2010. Approximately 17% of the total revenues received were due to collections based on an economic development agreement, 2% from audit collections and approximately 21% was received from presumed one-time payments. Sales tax revenues were .5% ($12K) more when comparing "actual" sales tax revenues with fiscal year 2009. iv S3.7s Local Sales and Use Tax $3-50 ! $3.25 $3-00 S2-7s 52.50 $2.25 _52.00 x$1.75 $1.50 _$1.25 '—51.00 2$0.75 $0.50 $0.25 $0.00 FY 2000 FY 2041 FY 2002 FY 2003 FY 2004 FY 2005 FY 2006 FY 2007 FY 2008 FY 2009 FY 2010 M Base Sales Tax Economic Development Agreements ■Audit Payments ■Presumed One-time Payments Long-Term Financial Outlook The Town of Westlake has developed a comprehensive capital improvements document as well as a multi-year strategic plan. Such strategic planning assists both the Council and staff in establishing priorities and allocating resources appropriately. One of the outcome strategies set out in the Town's Strategic Plan is to "Establish a strategy for achieving long-term financial sustainability for the Town government, including Westlake Academy." As a part of the systemic framework of governing and managing for outcomes, we knew from the regularly updated and Town Council reviewed Five (5) year Financial Forecast that if nothing changed, beginning in FY 2012-2013, the Town's present revenue sources and fund balances would not be able to keep pace with projected expenditures. In turn, the projected fund balance in the General Fund would fall below the 90 day minimum requirement set by Town Council financial policy. Financial forecasts are used by the Town to identify important warning "sign posts" that should not be ignored. The FY 2009-2010 and original 2010-2011 forecasts indicated we were heading into severe financial distress. Our Strategic Plan established financial sustainability as a priority for the Town and Westlake Academy. However, as the Town's financial condition worsened, the need to make hard decisions regarding key services and potential revenue sources including an ad valorem tax became more apparent. The decision to "wait out the storm" in FY 2009-2010 meant we had even less time to make critical decisions to deal with this issue. Waiting would have prolonged the continued decline by spending our reserves and not being able to meet our short or long-term financial obligations. Thus, in FY 2010-2011, we found ourselves at a juncture where we could still continue to face critical challenges and critical choices financially. However, we had an opportunity to deal with them in a proactive, thoughtful manner that placed Westlake's future as a premier knowledge based community on a firm financial foundation. The FY 2010-2011 budget established an additional revenue source with the imposition of a property tax and in so doing, helps to secure our long-term financial stability. Continuing factors that remain a challenge as we enter FY 2010-2011 include: • The Town's heavy reliance on sales tax and one-time permits/fees to fund its operation and debt service costs. v • As noted above, during this current recession, Texas, and especially the Fort Worth-Dallas metroplex, has fared better than many other parts of the country. However, this economic downturn continues to impact local governments' revenue streams throughout this area and Westlake is no exception. • Retail development that could help increase sales tax revenue has not occurred to date and based on retail industry conditions, is unlikely to occur at any significant level in the near to medium term. • A significant source of sales tax is "situs agreements" that generate sales tax revenue from construction materials purchased for major economic development projects such as Deloitte and Fidelity. Again, these sales tax revenues are one-time revenues. • Hotel/motel occupancy tax revenue has not grown at an appreciable rate due primarily to decreased business travel, even though the Marriott Solana expanded their room count two years ago. • Residential building permits have decreased due to the current economic climate • Large building permits from major economic development projects such as Fidelity and Deloitte have helped fund Town services; however, these economic development projects take years to develop. Currently, there are no such projects even in the preliminary planning stages. Again, these are one-time revenue sources. • In FY 2005-2006, Westlake voters approved dissolving the Town's 4A half cent economic development sales tax and replacing it with a half cent sales tax for "property tax reduction". This provided for a $2.2 million transfer to the General Fund and significantly increased the fund balance. This funding infusion, while increasing the General Fund's fund balance, had perhaps masked the volatility and lack of diversity of the Town's on-going revenue structure. • Fixed debt service costs are a significant part of the Town's costs and were increased in FY 2007-2008 with the issuance of$2.5 million of general obligation bonds for the new Sam and Margaret Lee Arts & Sciences Center at Westlake Academy. • Operating costs have increased to fund Town services, including Westlake Academy. As the Town's population has grown, the Academy's campus and enrollment growth has increased correspondingly. Another influencing factor related to operating cost adjustments is due to natural inflationary increases. • The Town's land use plan, and the zoning that implements it, features corporate office campuses and large lot single family residential as the primary land use pattern that is desired for Westlake. Both of these land uses, particularly the office land use, lend themselves more to creating a strong ad valorem tax base, not necessarily a strong sales tax base. As stated earlier, FY 2010-2011 became the first year the Town has proposed and implemented a property tax. Westlake's certified 2010 taxable assessed valuation is approximately $654M net of abatements; a large ad valorem tax base for a community 6.2 square miles in land area and a population of approximately 850. • Establishment of a property tax, lowest of the area municipalities, will allow the Town to begin to address its 5 Year CIP, with a strong focus on maintaining its street infrastructure. The Adopted FY 2010-2011 Budget approves transfer of $3.2 million from the Property Tax Reduction Fund and the General Fund to the Capital Projects fund to be combined with $2.0 million of debt planned to be issued in FY 2010-2011 to fund the first three years' projects in the CIP. vi Users of this document, as well as others interested in the programs and services offered by the Town of Westlake, are encouraged to read the Town's Fiscal Year 2010-2011 Budget. The budget details the Town's long-term goals and financial policies, and describes program accomplishments and initiatives. Other Information Certificate of Achievement The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States of America and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the Town of Westlake for its comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2009. This was the third year the Town has received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements. A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR) continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program's requirements and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate. In addition, the government also received their second GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for its annual budget document for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2009. In order to qualify for the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award, the Town's budget document had to be judged proficient as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communications device. Acknowledgements The preparation of this report could not be accomplished without the efficient and dedicated services of the entire staff of the Finance Department. Appreciation is expressed to Town employees throughout the organization, especially those employees who were instrumental in the successful completion of this report. The staff would also like to thank the Mayor and Town Council for their conservative leadership and their support in planning and conducting the financial operations of the Town in a responsible and progressive manner.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS ■ BUSINESS CONSULTANTS INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT To the Honorable Mayor and Town Council Town of Westlake, Texas We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units and each major fund of the Town of Westlake, Texas (the "Town"), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2010, which collectively comprise the Town's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Town of Westlake, Texas' management. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units and each major fund of the Town of Westlake, Texas, as of September 30, 2010, and the respective changes in financial position and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have issued a report dated February 22, 2011, on our consideration of the Town of Westlake, Texas' internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of 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 and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit. 1 115 SOUTH CHURCH STREET■HILLSBORO,TX 76645■(254)582-2583■FAX:(254)582-5731 ■www.pbhcpa.com AFFILIATE OFFICES:BROWNSVILLE,TX(956)544-7778■TEMPLE,TX(254)791-3460 WACO,TX(254)772-4901 ■ALBUQUERQUE,NM(505)266-5904 Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion and analysis and budgetary comparison information on pages 3 through 15 and 67 through 76 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Town of Westlake, Texas' financial statements as a whole. The introductory section, individual fund budgetary analysis schedule, and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. The individual fund budgetary analysis schedule is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. 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 it. Pak �, � U � � I P I February 22, 2011 2 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS The Town of Westlake is pleased to present this overview and analysis of the financial activities of the Town for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2010. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found in the introductory section of this report. FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS ■ The Assets of the Town exceeded its liabilities at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $26,094,630 (Net assets). This number must be viewed in the context that the vast majority of the Town's net assets of$20,667,316 (79%) are capital assets and that most capital assets in government do not directly generate revenue nor can they be sold to generate liquid capital. Those net assets restricted for specific purposes totaled $1,564,868 (6%). The remaining $3,862,446 (15%) are unrestricted net assets and may be used to meet the government's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors in accordance with the Town's fund designation and fiscal policies. ■ As of the close of the current fiscal year, the Town of Westlake's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of$7,836,949, an increase of$1,598,110 in comparison with the prior year. Within this total, $1,564,868 is restricted or designated by management or council. ■ At the end of the current fiscal year, fund balance for the general fund was $3,792,985, an increase of $1,067,673 in comparison with the prior year. Of this total fund balance, $3,578,235 is unreserved. This represents 94% of total general fund expenditures and is equivalent to 345 operating days. ■ The Town's capital assets (net of accumulated depreciation) decreased by $536,726. The major portion of this decrease is due to an increase related to the completion of the Arts & Sciences Center and its parking lot, Stagecoach Hills subdivision drainage and waterline infrastructure and two buses for the Westlake Academy. This increase in capital expenditures was reduced by $1,317,096 of depreciation, which gave the Town a net decrease. ■ The Town's bonds payable decreased by $525,000 or 2.5%, due to the scheduled repayment of principal on outstanding bonded debt. The Town did not issue any new bonded debt during the fiscal year. OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to the Town's basic financial statements. The Town's basic financial statements comprise three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves. 3 Government-wide financial statements The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Town's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business. The government-wide financial statements are prepared utilizing the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. The statement of net assets presents information on all of the Town's assets and liabilities with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in the Town's net assets serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the Town is improving or weakening. The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net assets changed during the most recent fiscal year. All of the revenues and expenses are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cashflows. Thus revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods. Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the Town that are principally supported by sales taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the Town include general government, public safety, culture and recreation, economic development, public works, visitor services and education. The business-type activities of the Town include water/sewer and cemetery. The government-wide financial statements include not only the Town (known as the primary government), but also discretely presented component units including all of the Texas Student Housing entities. Financial information for these component units is reported separately from the financial information presented for the primary government itself. See pages 28-31 of the "Financial Section" for detail on these entities. In addition, the Town has the following blended component units: Lone Star Public Facility Corporation, 4B Economic Development Corporation, and Westlake Academy, an open enrollment charter school owned and operated by the Town of Westlake. Fund Financial Statements A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The Town, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. Below are the three types of funds. The Town had only "Governmental funds and Proprietary funds" for the year ended September 30, 2010. Governmental funds - Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as government activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term financial requirements. 4 Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, the reader may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities. The Town maintains eleven individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General, Visitors Association, Westlake Academy, Debt Service, Capital Projects, FM 1938, Property Tax Reduction, Vehicle/Equipment Replacement, Economic Development, Lone Star Public Facility Corporation and Westlake 4B Economic Development Corporation funds, all of which are presented as major funds. The Town adopts an annual appropriated budget for all funds, except the Capital Projects fund which is a project-length based budget. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for all appropriate funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 19-24 of this report. Proprietary funds - There are two types of proprietary funds, Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds. An Enterprise Fund is the only proprietary fund currently maintained by the Town. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government- wide financial statements. The Town uses enterprise funds to account for its water and sewer activities and its cemetery activities. All activities associated with providing such services are accounted for in this fund, including administration, operation, maintenance, debt service, capital improvements, billing and collection. The Town's intent is that costs of providing the services to the general public on a continuing basis is financed through user charges in a manner similar to a private enterprise. The Town has no Internal Service Funds (fund to report activities that provide supplies and services for the Town's other programs and activities, i.e. self insurance and fleet management.) The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 25 - 27 on this report. Fiduciary funds - Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the Town's own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is similar to the accounting used for proprietary funds. The Town of Westlake does not currently have any fiduciary funds. Notes to the financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements can be found on pages 32 - 66 of this report. Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents schedules that further support the information in the financial statements. The schedules are presented immediately following the notes to the financial statements and can be found on pages 67 - 77. 5 GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of the government's financial position. In the case of the Town, assets exceeded liabilities by $26,094,630 at the close of the most recent fiscal year. The largest portion of the Town's net assets, $20,667,316 (79%), reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g. land, buildings, equipment, improvements, construction in progress, and infrastructure), less any debt used to acquire capital assets still outstanding. The Town uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the Town's investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities. An additional portion of the Town's net assets, $1,564,868 (6%), represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets, $3,862,446 (15%), may be used to meet the government's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.

This increase was primarily due to a one-time building permit of$1.2M. Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt increased by $388,796. The major portion of this increase is related to the Arts & Sciences Center parking lot, Stagecoach Hills subdivision drainage infrastructure and two buses for the Westlake Academy. 6 Changes in Net Assets Governmental Activities Business-type Activities Totals 2010 2009 2010 2009 2010 2009 Revenues: Program revenues: Fees,fines and charges for services $ 2,497,350 $ 1,478,234 $ 2,107,060 $ 2,345,236 $ 4,604,410 $ 3,823,470 Operating grants& contributions 853,151 1,522,935 46,810 - 899,961 1,5225935 Capital grants& contributions 83,250 2,059,624 - - 83,250 2,059,624 General revenues: Taxes Sales taxes 3,7905533 3,664,409 - - 3,790,533 3,664,409 Hotel occupancy taxes 457,693 497,769 - - 457,693 497,769 Mixed beverage taxes 17,902 17,869 - - 17,902 17,869 Franchise taxes 603,233 624,401 - - 603,233 624,401 Unrestricted grants 3,484,141 2,960,590 - - 3,484,141 2,960,590 Interest on investments 38,383 61,224 8,334 7,858 46,717 69,082 Miscellaneous 676,638 568,782 60,070 77,266 736,708 646,048 Total revenues 12,502,274 13,455,837 2,2225274 2,430,360 14,724,548 15,886,197 Expenses: General government 2,272,127 2,203,882 - - 2,272,127 2,203,882 Public safety 1,698,164 1,939,441 - - 1,698,164 1,939,441 Culture and recreation 105,997 115,770 - - 105,997 115,770 Economic development 309,653 207,044 - - 309,653 207,044 Public works 594,705 1,028,934 - - 594,705 1,028,934 Visitor services 420,270 341,270 - - 420,270 341,270 Education 4,138,875 3,722,705 - - 4,138,875 3,722,705 Interest on long-term debt 1,026,026 1,068,935 - - 1,026,026 1,068,935 Water and sewer - - 2,567,675 2,694,407 2,567,675 2,694,407 Cemetery - - 27,822 473 27,822 473 Total expenses 10,565,817 10,627,981 2,595,497 2,694,880 13,161,314 13,322,861 Excess(deficiency) before transfers 1,936,457 2,827,856 (373,223) (264,520) 1,563,234 2,563,336 Transfers - 61,321 - (61,321) - - Change in net assets 1,936,457 2,889,177 (373,223) (325,841) 1,563,234 2,563,336 Prior period adjustment - 84,508 - - - 84,508 Net assets,beg.of year 19,127,942 16,154,257 5,403,454 5,729,295 24,531,396 21,883,552 Net assets,end of year $ 21,064,399 $ 19,127,942 $ 5,030,231 $ 5,403,454 $ 26,094,630 $ 24,531,396 7 Total revenues (including transfers) for governmental activities decreased when compared to the prior year by $1,014,884. General revenue had an increase of$673,479 while program revenues had a decrease of$1,627,042. These increases were primarily due to the following factors: Program revenues— • Charges for services increased by$1,019,116; o One time building permit and inspection/plan review fees related to Deloitte construction for FY09/10 that total $1,016,846 will not re-occur in FY10/11 Operating • Operating Grants and Contributions decreased by $669,784 mostly due to a contribution made by Westlake Academy Foundation to the Arts & Sciences Center during FY 09/10 • Capital Grants and Contributions decreased by$1,976,374 o Due to the conveyance of Terra Bella open space and FM1938 right of way in the prior year. General revenues— • Sales tax increased by $126,124. This increase was made up of the following components: o Increase in"base" sales taxes of$12,016 o Increase of$244,818 in economic development revenue o Decrease of$814,628 in audit collections o Increase in presumed one-time payments of$683,918 • Hotel occupancy taxes decreased by $40,076 • Franchise tax decreased by $21,168 • Unrestricted grants increased $523,551 due to the state revenue received for the additional students at Westlake Academy • Interest income decreased by$22,841 • Miscellaneous increased by $107,856 with the majority of the increase being attributed to gifts/bequests and other revenues related to the Westlake Academy Expenses— • Total expenses for governmental activities decreased by $62,164 or approximately .6%. o General Government increase of$68,245 o Public safety decrease of$241,277 • Fully staffed at 10 with a Fire Chief in FY 08/09; only 6 full time (including Interim Fire Chief) in FY 09/10 o Economic development increase of$102,609 • Based on a contractual obligation reimbursement. The project was just beginning in the prior year; therefore, payments were more during the current year. o Public works decrease of$434,229 • Engineering fees were paid and that part of the project was completed during FY 08/09 o Visitor services increase of$79,000 • Additional transportation payment to the Marriott per agreement o Education increase of$416,170 • Additional students attending the Academy o Interest on long-term debt decrease of$42,909 8 Business-type activities: • Business-type activities decreased the Town's net assets by $373,223. This change in net assets was $47,382 more than the prior year's of($325,841) based on the following variances: o Decrease in revenues of $208,086 • FY 2009-2010 was a wetter than normal year resulting in decreased water billing revenues and other associated fees. o Decrease in expenses of$99,383 • $220,507 decrease in bad debt expense for the current fiscal year • $44,633 increase for payroll and related expenses due to additional allocation percentages of the Finance department to the Utility Fund as well as a portion of the administrative assistant in the Human Resources department who was not here for a full year in the prior year. • $75K increase in Peak Payment o Decrease in transfers out of$61,321 to various funds FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE TOWN'S FUNDS As noted earlier, the Town uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance- related legal requirements. Governmental funds. The focus of the Town's governmental funds is to provide information on near- term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Town's financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a town's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year. At the end of the current fiscal year, the Town's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of$7,836,949 an increase of$1,598,110 in comparison with the prior year. See below for the major reasons for this increase: General Fund - Fund balance increased by $1,067,673. Revenues increased by $827,343 mostly due to the Deloitte building permit and inspection/plan review fees and expenditures were reduced by $410,397. A large portion ($271,012) of the reduction in expenditures is attributed to the creation of a new "Economic Development Fund" in which payments to various entities are recorded based on economic development agreements. Transfers in decreased by $265,599 primarily due to the transfer of$250,000 from the Property Tax Reduction Fund in the prior year that wasn't necessary in the current fiscal year. See page 60 of the "Notes to the Financial Statements" for detailed information related to the transfers. Visitors Association Fund - The net decrease in fund balance of$144,005 was due primarily to the budgeted transfer out to the Debt Service Fund for the bond payment for the Arts and Sciences Center as well as the additional transportation payment made to the Marriott. Capital Projects Fund — The net decrease in fund balance is $85,832. The major portion of the decrease was due to the completion of the Arts & Sciences Center. Property Tax Reduction Fund — Fund balance increased by $501,717. This fund represents '/2 cent in sales tax revenues and is used to supplement various funds. Funds were transferred from 9 this account to Debt Service Fund to supplement payments made from the 4B Economic Development Corporation Fund, Capital Projects Fund, General Major Maintenance Fund and the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund. 413 Economic Development Corporation Fund — Fund balance did not change during the current fiscal year. All funds received were transferred to the Debt Service Fund for the annual bond payments. Proprietary funds. The Town's proprietary fund statements provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements but in more detail. Total net assets of the Utility Fund amounted to $4,889,082, a decrease of $351,016. Operating income totaled$215,575 but was offset by a net non-operating revenues (expenses)total of$566,591. o Revenues were $211,712 less than the prior year because FY 2009-2010 was a wetter than normal year resulting in decreased water billing revenues and other associated fees. o Operating Expenses decreased by $121,436: • $44,633 increase for payroll and related expenses due to additional allocation percentages of the Finance department to the Utility Fund as well as a portion of the administrative assistant in the Human Resources department who was not here for a full year in the prior year. • $220,507 decrease in bad debt expense for the current fiscal year (FY 2009-2010 bad debt expense of$604 is netted against operating revenues) • $56,292 increase in other operating costs General Fund Budgetary Highlights The General Fund budget was amended in total to increase the net change in fund balance from ($784,553) to $724,753, a total of$1,509,306. o Net revenues were increased by $1,481,453 (45%). The major portion of this is attributed to the increase of permits and fees by $1,371,945 based on a $1.2 one-time building permit that had been anticipated to be received in FY 08-09, sales tax revenues were increased by $121,400 with the remaining decrease of$11,892 being the net effect of several amendments to revenue accounts. o Expenditures were decreased by $468,594 (10%) of which $488,327 was due to the creation of an "Economic Development Fund" and the transfer of the budgeted payments to the separate fund. The offsetting $19,733 is again based on the net effect of several amendments to expenditure accounts. o Transfers out were increased by $112,741 of which approximately $49K was for the civic campus water well and $63K represented the final expenditures for the Arts & Sciences Center. The general fund's actual revenue collections exceeded the amended budget by $62,973. 10 The general's fund's final expenditures were $350,615 less than the amended budget(8%). o General government over budget$44,504 o Public safety under budget $230,428 • Budgeted for 9 full time staff and only had 6 - $170,480 • Several contracts were less than budgeted- $6,555 • Employee Physicals less due to short staff—$4,785 • Vehicle fuel, uniforms, firefighter supplies - $20,670 • Vehicle repair and maintenance - $10,116 o Cultural and recreation under budget$26,642 o Public works under budget $115,049 • Staff made a conscious effort towards keeping expenditures down and the majority of this variance was due to reduction in engineering, ROW irrigation and various other contracted services. Capital Assets and Debt Administration Capital Assets. The Town's investment in capital assets for its governmental and business-type activities as of September 30, 2010, totaled $45,744,455 (net of accumulated depreciation). The investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, infrastructure, and construction in progress. The net decrease in the Town's investment in capital assets for the current fiscal year was $536,726 or 1%. The major portion of this decrease is due to an increase related to the completion of the Arts & Sciences Center and its parking lot, Stagecoach Hills subdivision drainage and waterline infrastructure and two buses for the Westlake Academy. This amount was offset by$1,317,096 of depreciation which gave the Town a net decrease.

Of this amount, $20,185,000 represents bonded indebtedness, $177,224 represents an economic development reimbursement, $72,929 represents compensated absences and $5,658,888 business-type debt. During the fiscal year 2009-2010, the Town's total debt decreased by $553,775. This decrease is primarily attributed to the principal payments on the bonded indebtedness and the payoff of the lease for the Apple computers for Westlake Academy and the Marshall's vehicle. Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill, Inc. rates the Town's debt at AA-. Additional information about the rating agency or the significance of the rating provided may be obtained from each Standard& Poor's web site. Additional information on the Town's long-term debt can be found in Note III on pages 50-53.

Numerous hours and options were presented at the Council's budget workshops and other public meetings that placed the Town's finances on solid ground, securing its vision for the future. These scenarios focused on stabilizing the General Fund's on-going revenue (i.e. ceasing the use of fund balance for daily operations and reliance on one-time, non-reoccurring revenues) as well as reinvesting in the Town's infrastructure.

However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense. This is the amount by which depreciation exceeds capital outlays in the current period. ( 146,222) The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provided current financial resources to governmental funds, while repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt is first issued,whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items. 595,737 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.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Town of Westlake, Texas (the "Town") was incorporated under the provisions of the laws of the State of Texas on December 26, 1956. The Town operates under a Board- Manager form of government and provides the following services as authorized by the laws of the State of Texas: public safety; cultural and recreation; and economic development. A. Reporting Entity The accompanying financial statements comply with the provisions of the GASB statements No. 14 and 39. "The Financial Reporting Entity," in that the Town's basic financial statements include the accounts of the Town's financial reporting entity, including the primary government, organizations for which the Town is financially accountable and other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the Town are such that inclusion would cause the Town's financial statement to be misleading or incomplete. The criteria for including organizations as component units within the Town's reporting entity, includes whether: ■ The organization is legally separate (can sue and be sued in their own name); ■ The Town holds the corporate powers of the organization; ■ The Town appoints a voting majority of the organization's board; ■ The Town is able to impose its will on the organization; ■ The organization has the potential to impose a financial benefit/burden on the Town; and ■ There is fiscal dependency by the organization on the Town. Component units are blended with the balances and transactions of the Town if one of the following criterion are met: ■ The component unit is substantially the same governing body as the Town; or ■ The component unit provides services entirely (or almost entirely) to the Town or benefits the Town exclusively (or almost exclusively) ; or ■ The Town is able to impose its will on the component unit. (continued) 32 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) A. Reporting Entity (Continued) Based on the aforementioned criteria, the Town has the following component units: Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation, 4B Economic Development Corporation, Westlake Academy, Texas Student Housing Authority, Texas Student Housing Authority Ballpark Austin Project; Texas Student Housing Authority Town Lake Austin Project, Texas Student Housing Authority College Station Project and Texas Student Housing Corporation - The Ridge at North Texas. B. Component Units Discretely Presented The Texas Student Housing Authority, Texas Student Housing Ballpark Austin Project, Texas Student Housing Town Lake Austin Project, Texas Student Housing College Station Project, and Texas Student Housing Corporation — The Ridge at North Texas Project (collectively, "Texas Student Housing') are Texas nonprofit organizations as a duly constituted authority of the Town pursuant to Section 53.35(b) of the Texas Education Code, as amended (Act). Texas Student Housing's primary purpose is to construct, own, and operate student housing facilities on college campuses in Texas. The board consists of seven directors which are appointed by the Town's governing body and has the ability to remove at will the appointed members, thus the governing body can impose its will on the organizations. Housing entities are reported as Enterprise Funds. The Town is not responsible for the long-term debt of the Texas Student Housing entities. All Texas Student Housing entities have separately issued financial statements. These statements can be obtained by contacting the Texas Student Housing Authority, 3 Village Circle, Suite 207, Westlake, Texas 76262. The financial statements are formatted to allow the user to clearly distinguish between the primary government and the discretely presented component units. Blended Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation is a Texas nonprofit corporation that acts on behalf of the Town to further the public purposes under the Public Facilities Corporation Act, as it's duly constituted authority and instrumentality. The board of directors, appointed by the Town's governing body, is comprised of seven members, of whom five must be members of the Town's governing body. Since a voting majority of the board of directors is on the Town's governing body, the Town can impose its will on the entity. (continued) 33 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) B. Component Units (Continued) Blended (Continued) 4B Economic Development Corporation is a Texas nonprofit industrial corporation under the Development Corporation Act of 1979 formed to promote economic development within the Town and the State of Texas in order to eliminate unemployment and underemployment, and to promote and encourage employment and the public welfare of, for, and on behalf of the Town by developing, implementing, financing, and providing one or more projects defined and permitted under Section 4B of the Act. The board of directors is composed of seven persons appointed by the members of the Town's governing board. Four of the members of the board of directors are members of the Town's governing board. Since a voting majority of the board of directors is on the Town's governing body, the Town can impose its will on the entity. Westlake Academy ("Academy') is an open-enrollment charter school, as provided by Subchapter D, Chapter 12, of the Texas Education Code. The Town of Westlake ("Charter Holder") applied for and became the first municipality in Texas to ever receive this special charter designation. The board consists of six trustees and is appointed by the Town's governing body. Currently, all the members of the board of trustees are members of the Town's governing body. Since a voting majority of the board of directors is on the Town's governing body, the Town can impose its will on the entity. The Academy's year-end is August 31. C. Government-wide and Fund Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities) report information on all of the non-fiduciary activities of the Town. 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 expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues includes 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual Governmental Funds and major individual Enterprise Funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. (continued) 34 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) D. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the Town considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due. Sales taxes, franchise taxes, licenses, and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the Town. The Town uses funds to report on its financial position and the results of its operations. Fund accounting is designed to demonstrate legal compliance and to aid financial management by segregating transactions related to certain government functions or activities. A fund is a separate accounting entity with a self-balancing set of accounts. Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions of the Town are financed. The acquisition, use, and balances of the Town's expendable financial resources and the related liabilities (except those accounted for in the proprietary fund type) are accounted for through governmental funds. The measurement focus is upon determination of changes in financial position, rather than upon income determination. The Town reports the following major governmental funds: General Fund—to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The General Fund balance is available for any purpose, provided it is expended or transferred in accordance with the legally adopted budget of the Town. Special Revenue Funds—to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources (other than special assessments, expendable trusts, or major capital projects) that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes. Visitors Association Fund — to account for municipal hotel occupancy taxes collected and expenditures to promote tourism and the convention and hotel industry. (continued) 35 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) D. Measurement Focus,Basis of Accounting,and Financial Statement Presentation(Continued) Property Tax Reduction Fund — to account for activity relating to the Property Tax Reduction Fund. Westlake Academy Fund — to account for all financial resources of the Academy. FM 1938 Fund—to account for activity relating to the FM 193 8 Fund. Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund — to account for activity relating to the Vehicle and Equipment Replacement Fund. Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation —to account for activity relating to the Lone Star Public Facilities Corporation. 4B Economic Development Corporation —to account for activity relating to 4B Economic Development Corporation. Economic Development Fund — to account for activity relating to the Economic Development Fund. Debt Service Fund — to account for resources accumulated and payments made for principal and interest on long-term general obligation debt of governmental funds in a Debt Service Fund. Capital Proiects Fund —to account for proceeds from long-term financing and revenue and expenditures related to authorized construction and other capital asset acquisitions. Proprietary Funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the Town's Enterprise Fund are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for the Enterprise Fund include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenue and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenue and expenses. The Town reports the following major proprietary fund: Utility Fund — to account for revenues and expenses related to providing water and sewer services to the general public on a continuing basis. Cemetery Fund—to account for the operations of the Town's cemetery. (continued) 36 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) D. Measurement Focus,Basis of Accounting,and Financial Statement Presentation(Continued) Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are followed in both government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. Governments also have the option of following subsequent private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and Enterprise Funds, subject to this same limitation. The Town has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance. As a general rule, the effect of interfand activity has been eliminated from the government- wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the Town's water and wastewater function and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenue reported for the various functions concerned. Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges to customer or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenue. Likewise, general revenue includes all taxes. E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Assets or Equity Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and investments of all funds, including restricted cash, are available upon demand and are considered to be "cash equivalents." For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Town considers highly-liquid investments (including restricted assets) with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. State statues authorize the Town to invest in (1) obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities; (2) direct obligations of the State of Texas or its agencies; (3) other obligations, the principal of and interest on which are unconditionally guaranteed or insured by the State of Texas or the United States; (4) obligations of states, agencies, counties, cities, and other political subdivisions of any state having been rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm and having received a rating of not less than "A" or its equivalent; (5) certificates of deposit by state or national banks domiciled in this state that are (a) guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or its successor; or, (b) secured by obligations that are described by (1) — (4); or (6) fully collateralized direct repurchase agreements having a defined termination date, secured by obligations described by (1) pledged with third-party selected or approved by the Town, and placed through a primary government securities dealer. All investments are recorded at fair value based on quoted market prices. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. (continued) 37 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) E. Assets,Liabilities, and Net Assets or Equity(Continued) Interfund Receivables and Payables During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided or services rendered. These receivables and payables are classified as "due from other funds" or "due to other funds" on the balance sheet. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as "internal balances." Restricted Assets Certain bond proceeds, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment, are classified as restricted assets on the balance sheet because their use is limited by applicable bond covenants. Inventories Inventories, which are expended as they are consumed, are stated at the lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. Fund Changes and Transactions Between Funds Legally authorized transfers are treated as operating transfers and are included in the results of operations of both governmental and proprietary funds. The Town allocates an indirect cost percentage of the salaries, wages and related costs of personnel who perform administrative services as well as other indirect costs necessary for the operation of various funds. Expenses are budgeted and paid from the appropriate fund. Capital Assets All capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. The cost of nominal maintenance and repairs that do not add value to the asset or materially extend assets' lives are not capitalized. Donated assets are valued at their fair market value on the date donated. Assets capitalized have an original cost of $5,000 or more and over three years of life. All infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), regardless of the acquisition date or amount, have been included. Estimated historical cost for initial reporting of infrastructure assets (those reported by governmental activities) was valued by estimating the current replacement cost of the infrastructure and using an index to deflate the cost to the estimated acquisition/construction year. As the Town constructs or acquires additional capital assets, including infrastructure assets, they are capitalized and reported at historical cost. (continued) 38 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) E. Assets,Liabilities, and Net Assets or Equity (Continued) Capital Assets (Continued) Depreciation has been calculated on each class of depreciable property using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives are as follows: Assets Years Water and sewer system 10-50 Buildings 20-50 Machinery and equipment 3-30 Improvements 5-30 Information systems and software 3 Compensated Absences The Town's policy allows employees to earn 5 days of vacation and 5 days of sick leave between six months and one year of service, and 10 days of vacation and 10 days of sick leave between one year and two years of service. After completion of 5 years of service, 15 days of vacation and 15 days of sick leave per year are earned. After completion of 10 years of service, 20 days of vacation and 20 days of sick leave per year are earned. The Town makes sick and vacation time available in full at the beginning of each year, and hours are actually earned throughout the year. Unused, earned vacation hours are paid upon termination or retirement at the employee's normal hourly rate; accumulated, unused sick time is not payable upon termination or retirement. Long-term Obligations In the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium or discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term of the related debt. In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs during the current period. The face amount of the debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, even if withheld from the actual proceeds, are reported as expenditures. Reserved and Designated Fund Equity Reserved fund balances are not appropriable for expenditure or are legally segregated for a specific future use. Designated fund balances are established to indicate tentative plans for financial resources utilization in a future period. (continued) 39 I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) E. Assets, Liabilities, and Net Assets or Equity (Continued) Net Assets Net assets represent the difference between assets and liabilities. Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowing used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets, adding back unspent proceeds. Net assets are reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on there use either through enabling legislations adopted by the Town or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments. Estimates The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates. II. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet and the Government-wide Statement of Net Assets The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance — total governmental funds and net assets—governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of net assets. One element of that reconciliation explains, "Long-term liabilities are not due and payable in the current period and therefore are not reported in the funds." The details of this $19,889,118 difference are as follows: Certificates of obligation bonds $ 20,362,224 Deferred charges for issuance costs(to be amortized over life of debt) (943,973) Compensated absences 63,125 Accrued interest payable 407,742 Net adjustment to reduce fund balance-total governmental funds to arrive at net assets- governmental activities $ 19,889,118 (continued) 40 II. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Statement of Revenue, Expenditures and Chances in Fund Balances and the Government-wide Statement of Activities The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances — total governmental fund and changes in net assets of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. One element of that reconciliation explains, "Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of activities, the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense." The details of this $146,222 difference are as follows: Capital contributions $ 83,250 Capital outlay($52,411 reclassified to expense repairs) 629,692 Depreciation expense (859,164) Net adjustment to decrease net changes in fund balances- total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets of governmental activities $ (146,222) Another element of that reconciliation states, "The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net assets. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of activities. Details of this $595,737 difference are as follows: Principal repayments: General obligation debt $ 525,000 Capital lease 46,559 Deferred rebates 24,178 Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances- total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets ofgovernmental activities $ 595,737 (continued) 41 II. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) Explanation of Certain Differences Between the Governmental Fund Statement of Revenue, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances and the Government-wide Statement of Activities (Continued) Another element of that reconciliation states, "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." The details of this $111,168 difference are as follows: Municipal court fines $ (820) Accrued interest (11,856) Compensated absences 63,125 Amortization of deferred charge on refunding 44,336 Amortization of issuance costs 16,383 Net adjustment to decrease net changes in fund balances- total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets of governmental activities $ 111,168 III. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS Deposits and Investments Legal provisions generally permit the Town to invest in certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, public funds investment pools, direct obligations of the United States of America or its subdivisions and state and local government securities. The Town did not engage in repurchase or reverse repurchase agreement transactions during the current year. During the year ended September 30, 2010, the Town had investments with TexPool. TexPool, a public funds investment pool created by the Treasurer of the State of Texas acting by and through the Texas Treasury Safekeeping Trust Company, which is empowered to invest funds and acts as custodian of investments purchased with local investment funds. These investments are not required to be categorized because the investor is not issued securities, but rather it owns an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the respective funds. The fair value of the position in TexPool is the same as the value of the pool shares. On September 1, 1989, local government investment pools became authorized investments for the majority of public entities in Texas. The Interlocal Cooperation Act was amended by the 71" Texas Legislature to facilitate the creation of local government investment pools in Texas. This act permits the creation of investment pools to which a majority of political subdivisions (local governments) may delegate, by contract, the authority to make investments purchased with local investment funds and to hold legal title as custodian of the investments. TexPool was organized to conform with the Interlocal Cooperation Act, Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code, and the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256 of the Texas Government Code. (continued) 42 III. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued) Deposits and Investments (Continued) The Public Funds Investment Act (Government Code Chapter 2256) contains specific provisions in the areas of investment practices, management reports and establishment of appropriate policies. Among other things, it requires the Town to adopt, implement, and publicize its investment policy. That policy must address the following areas: (1) safety of principal and liquidity, (2) portfolio diversification, (3) allowable investments, (4) acceptable risk levels, (5) expected rates of return, (6) maximum allowable stated maturity of portfolio investments, (7) maximum average dollar — weighted maturity allowed based on the stated maturity date for the portfolio, (8) investment staff quality and capabilities, and (9) bid solicitation preferences for certificates of deposit. Statutes and the Town's investment policy authorized the Town to invest in the following investments as summarized in the table below: Maximum Maximum Authorized Maximum Percentage Investment Investment Type Maturity of Portfolio in One Issuer Obligations of, or guaranteed by Governmental entities 2 years None None Certificates of deposit 1 year None None Mutual funds 2 years 80% None Investment pools - None None At September 30, 2010, the Town's investments included investment pools in the name of the Town or its agent in the Town's name.

DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued) Deposits and Investments (Continued) The Town's entire cash deposits in the bank of$5,651,201 on September 30, 2010, were covered by federal depository insurance or by collateral. Carrying Weighted Average Component units Amount Fair Value Maturity(Days) Investments: Cash and cash equivalents $ 5,082,223 $ 5,082,223 N/A Total $ 5,082,223 $ 5,082,223 Interest Rate Risk. This is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market interest rates. In order to limit interest and market rate risk from changes in interest rates, the Town's investment policy sets a maximum stated maturity limit of two years for obligations of the United States Government, its agencies and instrumentalities (excluding mortgage backed securities) and one year for fully insured or collateralized certificates of deposit. No more than 80% of the Town's monthly average balance may be invested in money market funds. Additionally, the Town invests in an investment pool that purchases a combination of shorter term investments with an average maturity of less than 29 days thus reducing the interest rate risk. Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the Town's investments to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that shows the distribution of the Town's Investments. The Town has negotiated an interest rate for all checking account deposits; therefore, cash is considered in the balance of our investments. Credit Risk. This 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 above is the minimum rating required by (where applicable) the Public Funds Investment Act, the Town's investment policy, or debt agreements, and the actual rating as of year-end for each investment type.

DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued) General Long-term Debt(Continued) The Certificates of Obligation, Series 2002 and 2003 require the Town to provide certain updated financial information and operating data to certain information vendors annually, as permitted by SEC Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule"). The issuer will provide the updated information to each nationally recognized municipal securities information repository ("NRMSIR") and to any state information depository ("SID") that is designated by the State of Texas and approved by the staff of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission(the "SEC"). During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2008, the Town issued General Obligation bonds of $2.5 million. These bonds were used for the construction of an Arts & Sciences Center that was completed during the current fiscal year. Proprietary Long-term Debt Elevated Water Storage Facility On October 9, 2000, the Town approved an interlocal agreement with the City of Keller, which provided for the joint construction, operation, maintenance and use of an elevated water storage facility and appurtenances. The Town recorded a contractual obligation of$1,466,000 based on the terms of the interlocal agreement, which requires 20 annual principal and interest payments to the City of Keller, with payments due each September 30 at interest rates ranging from 5.0% to 5.65%. Dove Road Water Line and West Pump Station In April 2000, the Town approved an agreement with the Hillwood Development Corporation ("Hillwood"). In the agreement, Hillwood agreed to bear all initial costs for the design, engineering and constructions of the Dove Road Water Line and the West Pump Station that will service the residents of the Town. The Town agreed to reimburse Hillwood for the cost of the project upon completion and the Town's acceptance of the project, which occurred in June 2001, solely from a $.25 charge per 1,000 gallons of usage. The Town further agreed to deposit debt service revenue of $.25 per 1,000 gallons of usage collected from Town residents to fund its repayment to Hillwood. Debt service revenue will be allocated between Hillwood service area and Town service area by 52% and 48%, respectively and deposited into two separate debt service funds that will result in debt service revenue to pay the respective share of the construction cost. The Town recorded a limited pledge contractual obligation of$4,679,944 for the project cost based upon the terms of the agreement, which requires 239 monthly principal and interest payments to Hillwood, at an interest rate of 6.75%. If the Town collects insufficient funds to pay current interest on the debt, the interest payment may be deferred. No portion of debt payments will be applied to the principal component, until all current and deferred interest is fully paid. The obligation of the Town to pay the purchase price and interest thereon is not a general obligation of the Town but is a limited recourse obligation payable solely from debt service revenue.

As a part of the offering, the Project entered into a trust agreement with J. P. Morgan Trust Company, N.A. (the "Trustee") for the purpose of determining that each class is paid in accordance with the private placement memorandum. At August 31, 2010, the Project was not in compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio. Should the project default, the lender may accelerate the maturity of the unpaid portion of the principal payable under the installment sale agreement. However, the Authority does not anticipate this event will occur, since foreclosure by private interests would result in the loss of tax-exempt status for the Project. (continued) 54 III.

OTHER INFORMATION Retirement Plan Plan Description The Town provides pension benefits for all of its eligible employees through a non-traditional, joint contributory, hybrid defined benefit plan in the statewide Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS), an agent multiple-employer public employee retirement system. The plan provisions that have been adopted by the Town are within the options available in the governing state statutes of TMRS. (continued) 61 IV. OTHER INFORMATION (Continued) Retirement Plan (Continued) Plan Description (Continued) TMRS issues a publicly available comprehensive annual financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information (RSI) for TMRS; the report also provides detailed explanations of the contributions, benefits and actuarial methods and assumptions used by the System. This report may be obtained by writing to TMRS, P. O. Box 149153, Austin, Texas 78714-9153 or by calling 800-924-8677; in addition, the report is available on TMRS' website at www.TMRS.com. The plan provisions are adopted by the governing body of the Town, within the options available in the state statutes governing TMRS. Plan provisions for the Town were as follows: Plan Year 2009 Plan Year 2010 Employee deposit rate 7.0% 7.0% Matching ratio (town to employee) 2 to 1 2 to 1 Years required for vesting 5 5 Service retirement eligibility (expressed as age/years of service) 60/5, 0/20 60/5, 0/20 Updated service credit 100%repeating, 100%repeating, transfers transfers Annuity increase (to retirees) 0% of CPI 0% of CPI repeating repeating Contributions Under the state law governing TMRS, the contribution rate for each town is determined annually by the actuary, using the Projected Unit Credit actuarial cost method. This rate consists of the normal cost contribution rate and the prior service cost contribution rate, which is calculated to be a level percent of payroll from year to year. The normal cost contribution rate finances the portion of an active member's projected benefit allocated annually; the prior service contribution rate amortizes the unfunded (overfunded) actuarial liability (asset) over the applicable period for that city. Both the normal cost and prior service contribution rates include recognition of the projected impact of annually repeating benefits, such as Updated Service Credits and Annuity Increases. (continued) 62 IV. OTHER INFORMATION (Continued) Retirement Plan (Continued) Contributions (Continued) The Town contributes to the TMRS Plan at an actuarially determined rate. Both the employees and the Town make contributions monthly. Since the Town needs to know its contribution rate in advance for budgetary purposes, there is a one-year delay between the actuarial valuation that serves as the basis for the rate and the calendar year when the rate goes into effect. The annual pension cost and net pension obligation/(asset) are as follows: Annual Required Contribution(ARC) $ 130,590 Interest on Net Pension Obligation - Adjustment to the ARC - Annual Pension Cost 130,590 Contributions Made ( 130,590) Increase(Decrease)in Net Pension Obligation - Net Pension Obligation/(Asset),beginning of year - Net Pension Obligation/(Asset),ending of year $ - Accounting Annual Actual Percentage Net Year Pension Contribution of APC Pension Ending Cost(APC) Made Contributed Obligation 09/30/08 $ 108,827 $ 108,827 100% $ - 09/30/09 138,554 138,554 100% - 09/30/10 130,590 130,590 100% The required contribution rates for fiscal year 2010 were determined as part of the December 31, 2007 and 2008 actuarial valuations.

Other Postemployment Benefits Supplemental Death Benefits Fund The Town also participates in the cost sharing multiple-employer defined benefit group term life insurance plan operated by the Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) known as the Supplemental Death Benefits Fund (SDBF). The Town elected, by ordinance to provide group term life insurance coverage to both current and retired employees. The Town may terminate coverage under and discontinue participation in the SDBF by adopting an ordinance before November 1 of any year to be effective the following January 1. The death benefit for active employees provides a lump sum payment approximately equal to the employee's annual salary (calculated based on the employee's actual earnings, for the 12-month period preceding the month of death); retired employees are insured for $7,500; this coverage is an"other postemployment benefit," or OPEB. The Town contributes to the SDBF at a contractually required rate as determined by an annual actuarial valuation. The rate is equal to the cost of providing one-year term life insurance. The funding policy for the SDBF program is to assure that adequate resources are available to meet all death benefit payments for the upcoming year; the intent is not to pre-fund retiree term life insurance during employees' entire careers. (continued) 64 IV. OTHER INFORMATION (Continued) Other Postemployment Benefits (Continued) Supplemental Death Benefits Fund (Continued) The Town's contributions to the TMRS SDBF for the fiscal years ended 2010 and 2009 were $2,070 and $2,141, respectively, which equaled the required contributions each year. Fiscal year 2009 was the transition year for the implementation of GASB 45; therefore, two years of contributions are disclosed.

The Town's general liability, workers' compensation liability, law enforcement liability, errors and omissions liability, and automobile liability coverage is insured by the Texas Municipal League, a public entity risk pool. The Town's only responsibility to the Texas Municipal League is to pay premiums for insurance and related deductible amounts of these policies. Other risk of loss is covered by commercial insurance. Settlements of claims have not exceeded coverage in the past three years. Contingent Liabilities Litigation The Town and Academy are currently involved in a lawsuit for wrongful termination brought by the former head of school and his wife, a former teacher. The Town and Academy deny liability. The lawsuit is being handled by the Academy's insurance carrier and no additional liability to the Academy is anticipated. The Town is also involved in a lawsuit to determine the rights of the Town to levy a property tax and its authority to expend collected tax revenues on school operations at the Academy. The Town denies any liability. No additional liability to the Town is anticipated. Various other claims and lawsuits are pending against the Town. In the opinion of Town management, after consultation with legal counsel, the potential loss on these claims and lawsuits will not materially effect the Town's financial position. (continued) 65 IV. OTHER INFORMATION (Continued) Contingent Liabilities (Continued) Circle T Municipal Utility Districts The Town has agreements in place with Municipal Utility District's (MUDS) #1 and #3 on the Circle T property in Westlake which is controlled by AIL Investments, L.P. As this property develops, AIL Investments, L.P. agreed to de-annex developed property from the MUDS in exchange for pro-rata payments on water and sewer infrastructure installed by the MUD at their inception. To date, two projects, Chrysler Financial and Deloitte University, have been or are being developed within these MUDS. Discussions regarding the Town's payment to AIL Investments, L.P. in exchange for de-annexation of these two tracks from the Circle T MUDS have taken place but have not come to a conclusion as to the settlement amounts. These discussions are ongoing until the Town receives full documentation that it determines is adequate to support the requested payments. The Town of Westlake holds full rights and privileges under the State granted Certificate of Convenience and Necessity (CCN) and can serve all water and sewer customers within these MUD boundaries regardless of the status of these negotiations. Westlake Academy Building Site In 2002, the Town purchased 24.59 acres for the site of Westlake Academy and executed a Promissory Note in the amount of$1,475,400 with a rate of 6% interest. The $1,475,400 was placed into escrow in July, 2002. In July, 2003 the Escrow Agent delivered total funds in the amount of$1,495,665 to the "Seller", leaving a balance of$68,259 at that date. The "Seller"has informed the Town that this amount plus accrued interest is now payable. The Town is in negotiations with the "Seller" and contends that it has satisfied the terms and the intent of the sales agreement. Subsequent Event In December 2010, the Town Council approved a list of capital improvements, which are to be funded by a combination of cash from the Property Tax Reduction Fund, available fund balance in the General Fund and issuance of new debt. The debt is expected to be issued in early 2011 and the capital improvements are expected to be completed over the next five years. 66 REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION TOWN OF WESTLAKE, TEXAS GENERAL FUND SCHEDULE OF REVENUES,EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCE-BUDGET AND ACTUAL FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,2010 General Fund Variance Budgeted Amounts Favorable Original Amended Actual (Unfavorable) REVENUES Taxes Sales $ 1,452,600 $ 1,574,000 $ 1,597,194 $ 23,194 Mixed beverages 17,750 17,750 17,902 152 Franchise 646,675 609,500 603,233 ( 6,267) Federal program revenues 180 -

The Town follows these procedures annually in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the budgetary comparison schedules: 1. The Town Manager submits to the Town Council a proposed budget for the fiscal year commencing the following October 1. The budget includes proposed expenditures and the means of financing them. 2. Prior to October 1, the budget is legally adopted through passage of an ordinance. This budget is reported as the Original Budget in the budgetary comparison schedules. 3. During the fiscal year,changes to the adopted budget may be authorized, as follows: a) Items requiring Town Council action - appropriation of fund balance reserves; transfers of appropriations between funds; new inter-fund loans or advances; and creation of new capital projects or increases to existing capital projects. b) Items delegated to the Town Manager — appropriation balances from an expenditure account to another within a single fund 4. Annual budgets are legally adopted and amended as required for the general, special revenue and debt service funds. Project length budgets are adopted for the capital projects funds. All budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepting accounting principles. Budgets are adopted for the proprietary funds annually only as a management tool. There are no legally mandated budgetary constraints for the proprietary funds. 5. Budget amounts are reflected after all authorized amendments and revisions. This budget is reported as the Final Budget in the budgetary comparison schedules. 6. The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. The Town's management may make transfers of appropriations within a fund. Transfers of appropriations between funds require the approval of the Town Council. The legal level of budgetary control is the fund level. The Town Council made several supplementary budget appropriations during the year. 7. Encumbrances represent commitments related to unperformed contracts for goods or services. Encumbrance accounting under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of resources are recoded to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriation, is utilized in the governmental funds. Encumbrances lapse at year-end and do not constitute expenditures or liabilities because the commitments must be reappropriated and honored during the subsequent year. 8. Expenditures exceeded appropriations in the general government and administration function of the General Fund. The excess was covered by unspent budget in other functions and available fund balances. Expenditures exceeded appropriations in the Economic Development Fund for the year. The deficit was covered by additional collections of revenue. In addition, transfers out exceeded appropriations in the 4B Economic Development Corporation Fund.The deficit was covered by additional collections of revenue. 76 INDIVIDUAL FUND SCHEDULE TOWN OF WESTLAKE, TEXAS DEBT SERVICE FUND SCHEDULE OF REVENUES,EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCE-BUDGET AND ACTUAL FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,2010 Variance Final Budgeted Favorable Amounts Actual (Unfavorable) REVENUES Contributions $ - $ - $ - Total revenues - - - EXPENDITURES Debt service Principal retirement 525,000 525,000 - Interest and other fiscal charges 974,750 974,370 380 Total expenditures 1,499,750 1,499,370 380 EXCESS(DEFICIENCY)OF REVENUES OVER(UNDER)EXPENDITURES ( 1,499,750) ( 1,499,370) 380 OTHER FINANCING SOURCES(USES) Transfers in 1,499,750 1,499,370 ( 380) Total other financing sources(uses) 1,499,750 1,499,370 ( 380) NET CHANGE IN FUND BALANCE - - - FUND BALANCE,BEGINNING - - - FUND BALANCE,ENDING $ - $ - $ - 77 STATISTICAL SECTION STATISTICAL SECTION (Unaudited) This part of the Town of Westlake, Texas' comprehensive annual financial report presents detailed information as a context for understanding what the information in the financial statements, note disclosures and required supplementary information says about the Town's overall financial health.

CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS ■ BUSINESS CONSULTANTS REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT A UDITING STANDARDS Town Council Town of Westlake, Texas 3 Village Circle, Suite 202 Westlake, Texas 76262 Members of the Council: We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units and each major fund of the Town of Westlake, Texas, (the "Town") as of and for the year ended September 30, 2010, which collectively comprise the Town's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated February 22, 2011. 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. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Town's internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Town's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Town's internal control over financial reporting. A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the Town's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Town's financial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the Town's internal control. A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the Town's internal control. 93 115 SOUTH CHURCH STREET■HILLSBORO,TX 76645■(254)582-2583■FAX:(254)582-5731 ■www.pbhcpa.com AFFILIATE OFFICES:BROWNSVILLE,TX(956)544-7778■TEMPLE,TX(254)791-3460 WACO,TX(254)772-4901 ■ALBUQUERQUE,NM(505)266-5904 Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above. Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Town's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements,noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the Town Council, and federal and state awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. piftki V February 22, 2011 94
