COUNCIL ACTION: Receipt of the audit report for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017 FINANCE COMMITTEE REPORT 1. Distinguished Budget Presentation Award PRESENTED BY: James Morris, Finance Committee Chairman The City of Lake Forest has been awarded the Government Finance Officers Association Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the fiscal year 2018 budget document. The award has been granted to the City for the 2nd consecutive year. The Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is the highest form of recognition in governmental budgeting, and its attainment is a significant accomplishment by a government and its management. In an October 12 news release, the GFOA states that “In order to receive the budget award, the entity had to satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for effective budget presentation. These guidelines are designed to assess how well an entity’s budget serves as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide and a communications device.” For budgets beginning in 2016, only 1,612 units of government received the award nationally, which is 1.8% of the 89,000 units of government in the United States.* The GFOA is a nonprofit professional association serving more than 19,000 elected and appointed government finance professionals in the United States and Canada. In addition to the Budget Award, a Certificate of Recognition for Budget Presentation is presented by the GFOA to the individual designated as instrumental in their government unit’s achievement of the award. I am pleased to present this award to Elizabeth Holleb, Director of Finance and IT, for her efforts in coordinating the preparation of the annual budget and for leading the efforts in making the required changes to the City’s budget document to meet the stringent requirements of the GFOA budget awards program. 2 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda * 2012 Census of Governments, US Census Bureau 2. Tax Levy Estimate Determination of Non-Binding Estimate of the Amount of Revenue to be generated from Property Taxes for the 2017 Calendar Year in Accordance with the Truth in Taxation Statute and Establishment of a Public Hearing Date for the 2017 Tax Levy (if required) PRESENTED BY: Elizabeth Holleb, Finance Director (847-810-3612) PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests City Council approval of a non-binding estimate of the amount of revenue to be generated from property taxes in calendar year 2017 and setting of a public hearing date if this estimate exceeds 105% of the prior year’s tax extension in accordance with State Statutes. PROJECT REVIEW/RECOMMENDATIONS: Reviewed Date Comments Finance Committee 10/16/17 Preliminary discussion of 2017 Tax Levy City Council Workshop 9/18/17 Direction to Independent Actuary to change payroll growth assumption from 5.5% to 2.0% for 4/30/17 police and fire actuarial valuations. City Council Workshop 6/19/17 Presentation by independent actuary regarding police and fire pension actuarial valuations. Direction to accept recommendation regarding mortality and salary increase assumptions. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: Under the Truth in Taxation Act, the City Council is required to determine the estimated amount of money to be raised by taxation twenty (20) days prior to the adoption of the annual tax levy. The amount determined is an estimate, and may be increased or decreased under the statute, provided that any increase does not exceed 105% of the prior year’s tax extension without the required notice and public hearing. This estimate is preliminary and initiates the public process for the 2017 tax levy by establishing an estimated amount from which staff can prepare a proposed levy ordinance. A discussion regarding the 2017 tax levy is scheduled for the November 13 Finance Committee budget workshop. The tax levy ordinance will be considered by the City Council on November 20 and again on December 4, 2017. The City Council conducted workshops in June and September to consider recommendations for the police and fire pension funds from the City’s independent actuary. In an effort to mitigate the contribution increases of 8-9% per year projected to continue indefinitely, the City Council elected to alter actuarial assumptions for both plans. The actuarial assumption adjustments necessitate an increase in funding for Fiscal Year 2019, but will allow for a more modest annual adjustment to these costs. The City Council will consider alternate means to fund the increased contributions at its Finance Committee budget workshop on November 13. For purposes of the estimate considered for approval on 3 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda November 6, it has been assumed that the increased contributions will be funded entirely by the tax levy to make the most conservative estimate. The 2017 property tax levy estimate, as considered by the Finance Committee on October 16, is as follows: Levy 2016 Extended 2017 Levy Estimate % Increase (Decr.) Aggregate Levy $ 28,540,894 $ 30,066,290 5.34% Debt Service Levy 1,429,804 1,521,588 6.42% TOTAL LEVY $ 29,970,698 $ 31,587,878 5.40% The increase in the aggregate levy is comprised primarily of the following: • 2.10% overall increase in compliance with the tax cap applicable to 2017 levies under the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law (PTELL), • an increase due to new construction as estimated by the Lake County Assessor’s Office, and • an increase in funding requirements for police and fire pension. The total levy as estimated above would result in a projected $154 (4.72%) increase in the tax bill of an average home ($800,000 market value). A public hearing would be required under the Truth in Taxation Act. COUNCIL ACTION: Determination of an Estimate of the Amount of Revenue to be generated from Property Taxes for the 2017 Calendar Year and establishment of December 4, 2017 as a public hearing date (if required) in Accordance with the Truth in Taxation Statute 4.

Approval of Contract with Direct Response Resources for Vehicle, Pet and Parking Licenses/Permits STAFF CONTACT: Diane Hall, Assistant Finance Director (847-810-3614) PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests City Council award a one year contract with the option to renew up to five years, based on performance, for the processing of the City’s vehicle licenses, pet licenses and parking permits to Direct Response Resources. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: In November 2016, the City Council approved a one year contract with our current provider, which is now scheduled to expire for the online processing of the City’s vehicle, pet and parking licenses/permits. The City has been notified of a significant increase in fees for this year. City staff completed a Request for Proposals (RFP) process in 2016 and has requested pricing from two additional vendors that currently provide services to other local municipal vehicle sticker programs. Staff has participated in demonstrations of the software proposed as well as contacted references for the additional vendors. The respondents met the specifications of the City’s 2016 RFP: Estimated First Year Cost: Credentials Inc. Based on estimated FY17 Counts - $116,000 Direct Response Resources Based on estimated FY17 Counts - $78,500 Third Millennium Based on estimated FY17 Counts – $88,900 Estimated Second Year Cost: Credentials Inc. Based on estimated FY17 Counts - $116,000 Direct Response Resources Based on estimated FY17 Counts - $69,200 Third Millennium Based on estimated FY17 Counts – $69,700 Direct Response Resources offers online purchases of vehicle, pet and parking licenses/permits, as well as fulfillment services. The City has worked with Direct Response Resources in prior years and has had a positive working relationship. Based on the demonstration provided to the Finance Department staff, Direct Response Resources online process appeared to be more user friendly and similar to the current program. During implementation, staff will work with the vendor to promote a smooth transition for residents to the new process. Credit cards fees would be assessed through the City’s current credit card processing vendor Automated Merchant Systems. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Below is an estimated summary of Contract budget: FY2018 Funding Source Amount Budgeted Amount Requested Budgeted? Y/N 5 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda Finance Operating $104,540 $78,500* Y * Includes contract cost with service provider and estimated credit card fees. COUNCIL ACTION: If determined to be appropriate by the City Council, award a one year contract with the option to renew up to five years to Direct Response Resources for the processing of the City’s vehicle, pet and parking licenses/permits for $57,300 and the credit card fees to Automated Merchant Systems. 4. Approval of Resolutions Authorizing the Submission of Grant Applications between The City of Lake Forest and the Illinois Department of Transportation for Grant Funding through the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (“ITEP”) STAFF CONTACT: Robert Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (810-3555) PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: On December 4, 2015, the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (“FAST Act”) was signed into law, the first in over ten (10) years to provide long-term funding certainty for surface transportation. The FAST Act is a five-year, $305 billion surface transportation reauthorization bill that authorizes federal highway, highway safety, transit and rail programs from federal fiscal years 2016 through 2020. The Act has set aside resources to fund projects through the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program (“ITEP”). ITEP provides financial assistance for projects that support alternate modes of transportation, enhance transportation facilities, and improve the quality of life for members of the community. The 2017 ITEP cycle has been released, and a call for projects is being solicited for the program. Project sponsors may receive up to eighty (80) percent reimbursement for project costs. The remaining twenty (20) percent is the responsibility of the project sponsor. Approximately $40 million in funds will be available to award for selected projects during this cycle, with a $2 million maximum grant available per project. City staff respectfully requests that City Council approve resolutions between the City and Illinois Department of Transportation (“IDOT”) to support the applications for the projects listed below. Approval of these Resolutions affirm that the City is committed to funding the required local share and is requesting that IDOT allocate the maximum amount of ITEP grant funding possible to support each project. Acknowledgement and execution of a Local Assurance for each project, approved via Resolution, is required to satisfy the grant application requirements under the ITEP program. Staff is anticipating that grantees will be notified by early winter on the status of their application. If the City is awarded a grant, a subsequent Resolution and Agreement will need to be reviewed and considered by City Council to formally accept the grant award and to authorize the expenditure of any City funds to support the project. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: ITEP is a federally-funded competitive grant program that expands travel choices and enhances the transportation experience by improving the cultural, historic, aesthetic and environmental aspects of transportation infrastructure and promotes the opportunity for communities to beautify their streets and/or develop means of transportation facilities such as bike/pedestrian trails or paths. 6 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda The federal ITEP funds are awarded competitively, and any local government or state agency with taxing authority is eligible to apply. Project sponsors may receive up to eighty (80) percent reimbursement for eligible project costs. The deadline for application submittals is December 1, 2017. The City has applied for, and been awarded, ITEP grants in the past. Notably, the City has received over $2.1 million in ITEP grants to support the Lake Forest Metra/Union Pacific North Train Station Renovation Project. Route 60 Shared-Use Path Project: This Project will provide safe bicycle and pedestrian access along the north side of Illinois Route 60 between Academy Drive and the existing sidewalk located at the Field Court entrance to the Conway Business Park. Once completed, the shared-use path will connect Conway Park to the path currently under construction at Middlefork Savanna which includes a 10’ wide bridge over the Metra tracks. This path, expected to open by the end of 2017, will provide a vital east – west connection for bicyclists and pedestrians as depicted in The City of Lake Forest Bicycle Master Plan. The City estimates that the cost for design and construction of the project will be $225,400. A prospective grant funding assessment for this project is included below. PROSPECTIVE GRANT FUNDING Project Estimated Project Cost Estimate ITEP Funding (80%) Total Local Share Estimate (20%) Amount Budgeted in FY18 IL Route 60 Bike Path Project $225,400 $180,320 $45,080 $0.00 The Capital Improvement Program identifies this project as a 1nf initiative (Priority 1 but not funded). To this end, funding to support design and construction has not been allocated at this point in time. Robert McClory Bike Trail Pedestrian Bridge Replacement Project: This project calls for the replacement of the two pedestrian bridges on the McClory Bike Path in downtown Lake Forest. The bridges, installed in 1994, span Illinois Road and Woodland Road and are 110 feet long and 220 feet long respectively. Beginning in 2013, the pedestrian bridges were inspected by a structural engineering firm. The firm noted deficiencies and identified interim repairs. These repairs were completed in 2014 to extend the life of the bridges, but the structural engineer recommended the bridges be replaced within 5 years. The inspections, done in conformance with the Nation Bridge Inspections Standards, identified extensive moisture and corrosion-related deterioration in many areas of the steel structures primarily caused by de-icing salts applied to the bridges during the winter months. De-icing salt applications have been discontinued on the bridges but the damage is irreversible and the corrosion pitting and formation of pack rust is on- going. The Robert McClory Bike Trail spans 26.5 miles from Highland Park to the Wisconsin state line and is an integral component of both the Grand Illinois Trail and US Bike Route 37 which begins in Chicago and ends in Northern Wisconsin where the trail ties into other national routes. 7 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda The City is requesting ITEP funds for both design and construction and estimates the total cost for both to total about $800,000. A prospective grant funding assessment for this project is included below. PROSPECTIVE GRANT FUNDING Project Estimated Project Cost Estimate ITEP Funding (80%) Total Local Share Estimate (20%) Amount Budgeted in FY18 Robert McClory Bike Trail $800,000 $640,000 $160,000 0.00 The Capital Improvement Program has identified this project as a Priority 5 initiative (grant dependent). Approval of these Resolutions (beginning on page 228) affirms that the City is committed to the projects and pledges to fund the required local share and requests that IDOT allocate the maximum amount of ITEP grant funding possible for each project. If the City is awarded a grant, a subsequent Resolution and Agreement will need to be reviewed and considered by City Council to formally accept the grant award and to authorize the expenditure of any City funds to support the project. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: ITEP grants provide 80% federal grant funding, The City of Lake Forest would be responsible for the 20% local agency matching funds. COUNCIL ACTION: Staff recommends City Council approve the following: 1. A Resolution authorizing submission of a grant application to the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program for the Illinois Route 60 Shared-Use Path Project and authorizing the City Manager to execute related documents with the Illinois Department of Transportation regarding this application AND 2. A Resolution authorizing submission of a grant application to the Illinois Transportation Enhancement Program for the Robert McClory Bike Trail Pedestrian Bridge Replacement Project and authorizing the City Manager to execute related documents with the Illinois Department of Transportation regarding this application 5. Consideration of a Resolution Ratifying the Execution of a Stormwater and Landscaping Easement Agreement with the Catholic Bishop of Chicago for Work in the Ravine between Lake Forest Cemetery and Saint Mary’s Cemetery STAFF CONTACT: Chuck Myers, Superintendent of Parks, Forestry & Special Facilities (810-3565) PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: A Resolution is presented for Council’s consideration to initiate the necessary easement on the Saint Mary Cemetery property to complete the 8 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda Cemetery Ravine Restoration Project (the Resolution and Exhibits are attached beginning on page 231). BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The City has been approved for funds under the Illinois Coastal Management Program Grant to restore and stabilize the ravine and improve the stormwater system within a ravine located within the Lake Forest Cemetery and the Saint Mary's Catholic Cemetery. A similar Stormwater and Landscaping Easement was granted in 2002 for a ravine restoration project on a separate portion of the ravine shared by the Lake Forest Cemetery and Saint Mary’s Cemetery. Terms of the grant program require that improvements be made on land owned by the public entity applying for funding. The Archdiocese of Chicago (an Illinois Corporation known as The Catholic Bishop of Chicago) owns a portion of the northern side of the ravine in which the improvement is planned. The Archdiocese is willing to grant the City an easement to allow the project to be constructed and planted on ravine property that it owns. Possession of an easement satisfies the terms of the grant program. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: No approval for expenditure of City funds is requested. COUNCIL ACTION: Approve a motion in support of a Resolution ratifying the execution of a Stormwater and Landscaping Easement Agreement with the Catholic Bishop of Chicago for Work in the Ravine between Lake Forest Cemetery and Saint Mary Cemetery. 6. Award of Bid for Lake Forest Cemetery Ravine Restoration Project STAFF CONTACT: Chuck Myers, Superintendent of Parks, Forestry & Special Facilities (810-3565) PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Award of a contract to John Keno & Co., Inc. to perform restoration and stabilization of a portion of the ravine located at the Lake Forest Cemetery. PROJECT REVIEW/RECOMMENDATIONS: Reviewed Date Comments Cemetery Commission 10/25/17 Reviewed and Approved City Council 04/01/16 Approval to Execute Grant Cemetery Ravine Taskforce 08/04/14 Approval of Concept BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The ravines of southern Lake Michigan play a critical role in protecting the water quality of the lake, preventing sediment runoff, protecting beaches and countless benefits to wildlife. The value of these ravines and the role they play in protecting Lake Michigan water quality has become increasingly well understood in just the past few decades. When restored and healthy, our ravines are beautiful assets and an integral part of the community’s character. In 2012, Conservation Design Forum (CDF) was hired by the City of Lake Forest and, specifically, the Lake Forest Cemetery, to prepare a Restoration Management Plan for the 9 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda ravine system across the north end of the Lake Forest Cemetery. In 2014, CDF was hired to complete the Phase II engineering documents needed to implement the ravine restoration management plan. This project is intended to improve water quality for Lake Michigan’s beach and near shore areas as well as restore one of its ravines to improve the unique aquatic resource that the Lake Michigan ravines represent. The City of Lake Forest and Lake Forest Cemetery propose to restore 550 linear feet of ravine covering an area of approximately 0.5 acres. The work includes restoration and stabilization of the ravine bottom, restoration of the native flora of the ravine side slopes to address significant sheet, rill, and gully erosion, establishment of a native buffer filter strip to address runoff adjacent upland areas, and installation of a water quality sediment basin at the head end of the ravine to capture sediment and reduce runoff rates from a storm sewer discharging to the ravine. The project includes one year of stewardship maintenance and management of the established vegetation. The Cemetery ravine also plays a large role in the conveyance of stormwater. If not managed properly, storm water discharges can have a devastating impact on these fragile ravine systems. The proposed project will address some of the issues associated with the impact of stormwater on the ravine. In 2015, staff submitted a proposal to assist with funding the project through the Illinois Coastal Management Program (ICMP). Late in 2015, staff was informed that the City of Lake Forest had been awarded a grant for the project. On April 1, 2016 City Council gave staff approval to execute a grant agreement by and between the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and the City of Lake Forest, through the Illinois Coastal Management Program, to complete the ravine restoration project at the Lake Forest Cemetery. Since then, City staff has been working with CDF on permitting for the project, and at this time, all necessary permits have been secured. The proposed project involves the restoration of a section of the Cemetery ravine located within the natural ravine running through cemetery property from west to east. The western portion of the ravine extends onto private property west of the cemetery property line, the Saint Mary Cemetery owned by Catholic Bishop of Chicago. The ravine extends eastward from the head approximately 500 linear feet, to the land bridge. The ICMP Grant requires that the project be on public land or publicly controlled easement, City staff has worked with Saint Mary’s Cemetery on this easement and is requesting City Council approval under a separate agenda item in the packet. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: The project was placed out to bid in September with a subsequent bid opening on October 5, 2017. A total of four bids for the project were received. The following is a summary of the bids received: Bidder Total John Keno & Co., Inc. $209,400 Elanar Construction Co. $224,142 10 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda Copenhaver Construction Co., Inc. $229,000 Berger Excavating Contractors, Inc. $414,000 The low bidder for the project, John Keno & Co., has considerable experience with this type of project and has performed other projects in a satisfactory manner in Lake Forest. If awarded, work on this project is expected to begin in November and be completed in December. Below is an estimated summary of the project budget: FY ’18 Funding Source Amount Budgeted Amount Requested Budgeted? Y/N Cemetery Fund 183,787 $230,000 Y ICMP Grant ($80,000) The ICMP Grant of $80,000 will offset a portion of the project cost, requiring a net Cemetery Fund expense of $150,000. COUNCIL ACTION: Staff recommends award of a contract to John Keno & Co., Inc. for restoration and stabilization of the ravine and to improve the stormwater system within the ravine located at the Lake Forest Cemetery, in the amount of $230,000, which includes a 10% contingency. 7. Approval of a Contract for Corrective Work for the Everett Park Path Replacement Project STAFF CONTACT: Bob Ells, Superintendent of Engineering (847) 810-3555 PURPOSE AND ACTION REQUESTED: Staff requests approval of a contract for the corrective work for the Everett Park Path Replacement contract to Maneval Construction. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION: The Everett Park Path Replacement contract was originally awarded to Allstar Asphalt. Allstar has failed to construct the project to standards acceptable to the City. Numerous attempts have been made to get Allstar to construct the project to City standards to no avail. Staff is recommending that the current contract with Allstar be terminated and the corrective work be awarded to the second lowest bidder for completion of the project. This corrective work involves the removal and replacement of the recently paved asphalt surface deemed unacceptable on both the path and basketball court. BUDGET/FISCAL IMPACT: Council previously approved the expenditure of $140,000 on April 17, 2017 for the construction of this project. The corrective work needed for this project will be within the previously approved expenditure of $140,000, and no additional funds are being requested. 11 Monday, November 6, 2017 City Council Agenda Allstar will be paid $49,699.80 for the work that is acceptable to the City. Maneval Construction proposed $88,586.35 to perform the corrective work to make the total project acceptable to the City. This will make the total project cost $138,256.15 which is $1,743.85 under the original budget. If any additional unforeseen work by Maneval is needed to correct the work to acceptable City requirements, any total project cost that would exceed the original budget amount of $140,000 will be subtracted from the monies owed Allstar and the balance remaining will be paid to Allstar upon the City accepting the final product. The previous bids for the Everett Park Path replacement are summarized below: BIDDER PARKS & RECREATION SHARE Allstar Asphalt Inc. $111,307.00 Maneval Construction $111,714.60 Chicagoland Paving Contractors $121,089.22 Evans & Son Blacktop $127,181.62 Schroeder Asphalt Services Inc. $129,474.35 Engineer’s Estimate $168,550.00 If approved by City Council, the project would commence on or about November 7, 2017 and be completed by the end of November. During construction, the Everett Park Path will be closed. Below is an estimated summary of project budget: FY2018 Funding Source Amount Budgeted Amount Requested Budgeted? Y/N Park and Public Land Fund $140,000 $140,000 Y COUNCIL ACTION: Staff recommends awarding the contract for the corrective work on the Everett Park Path to Maneval Construction in the amount of $88,586.35.

These ordinances and statutes require that the City issue annually a report on its financial position and activity presented in conformance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of Am erica (GAAP) and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by an independent firm of certified public accountants. This report consists of management’s representations concerning the finances of the City of Lake Forest. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these representations, management of the City has established a comprehensive internal control framework that is designed both to protect the government’s assets from loss, theft or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City of Lake Forest’s financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City’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 misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects. The City of Lake Forest utilizes an independent Audit Committee for reviewing the audit process and to report and make recommendations to the City Council. The Audit Committee members are Lake Forest residents having expertise in the area of financial administration and auditing. The City’s financial statements have been audited by Baker Tilly Virchow Krause, LLP a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City of Lake Forest for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, are free of material misstatement. 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 their audit, that there was a reasonable basis for an unmodified opinion that the City’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditors’ report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report. GAAP require 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 complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A is located immediately following the report of the independent auditors. 20 ii Profile of The City of Lake Forest The City of Lake Forest was incorporated as a city under a charter granted by the Illinois State Legislature in 1861 and am ended in 1869. Lake Forest is a residential community of 19,375 people and has a land area of 17.18 square miles. It is situated on Lake Michigan, thirty miles north of downtown Chicago in Lake County. In its American Community Survey, 2011-2015 estimates, the U.S. Census Bureau reported the City had a median household income and median home value significantly higher than comparable figures for Lake County and the State of Illinois: The City adopted the Council-Manager form of government in 1956. Policy making and legislative authority are vested in the City Council, which consists of a Mayor and an eight-member Council. The City Council is responsible, am ong other things, for passing ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees and hiring the Cit y Manager and City Attorney. The City Manager is responsible for carrying out the policies and ordinances of the City Council, for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the City, and for hiring the heads of the City's departments. The Council members are elected to two-ye ar staggered terms with three Council members elected every two years. Aldermen serve a maximum of three terms. The Mayor is elected to a two-year term and serves a maximum of two terms. The City provides a full range of services, including police protection, fire protection, paramedic service, refuse disposal, commuter parking, com post center, recreation center, senior center, community parks, golf course, street maintenance, forestry, cemetery and a water production facility. The financial reporting entity of The City of Lake Forest includes all City funds as well as its component unit, the Lake Forest Library. Com ponent units are legally separate entities for which the prim ary government is financially accountable. Each ye ar the Cit y of Lake Forest prepares an annual budget document. This plan contains the following sections: the budget message and fiscal policy; summary tables of revenues, expenditures and fund balance for the fiscal year; operating budgets for each department; pay plan and personnel data; and debt and statistical information. The budget message highlights the significant expenditure events that will occur and the objectives to accomplish these events. It justifies the planned capital expenditures and also lists the goals that are to be achieved during the budget year. While the annual municipal budget represents the City's financial plan for expenditures over the course of the fiscal year, the annual Appropriation Ordinance is the formal legal mechanism by which the City Council authorizes the actual expenditure of funds budgeted in the annual budget. It appropriates specific sums of money by object and purpose of expenditure. 155,792 841,400 78,026 245,300 57,574 173,800 0 100,000 200,000 300,000 400,000 500,000 600,000 700,000 800,000 900,000 Median Household Income Median Home Value Lake Forest Lake County Illinois 21 iii In addition, the Appropriation Ordinance provides for a 10% contingency in expenditures in an amount above those actually budgeted. Each separate fund includes an item labeled contingency, with an appropriated amount equivalent to 10% of the total funds budgeted. Even though there is a 10% contingency line item, the City Council and City staff follow the adopted budget as its spending guideline and not the Appropriation Ordinance. This practice has been followed for more than thirty years and has worked very efficiently as a mechanism to address unanticipated items that may arise throughout the fiscal year. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. For the General Fund and Parks and Recreati on Fund, considered major funds, this comparison is presented beginning on page 90 as required supplementary information. For the Capital Improvements Fund (major fund), Debt Service Fund (major fund) and non -major governmental funds with appropriated annual budgets, this comparison is presented in the Other Supplementary Information section of this report, which starts on page 110. Factors Affecting Financial Condition Local Economy. The City of Lake Forest is not immune to challenges brought on by nat ional and state economic conditions, but has been proactive in identifying mitigation strategies. Unemployment levels in Lake Forest are well below the levels for Lake County and the State of Illinois. For calendar year 2016, the City’s annual average unemployment rate was estimated to be 4.6%, compared to 5.2% for Lake County and 5.9% for the State of Illinois. The consumer confidence index is closely monitored by economists because consumer spending accounts for 70% of the United States’ economic activity. In September 2017, the index was 119.8, down slightly from 120.4 in August, and comparing favorably to the August 2016 index of 101.1. The index remains above 90, the minimum level associated with a healthy economy. An index above 100 signals growth. As revenues declined in recent years due to national economic conditions, the City has proactively reduced operating expenses to ensure a balanced budget and compliance with the City’s fiscal policies. Since personnel costs represent nearly 70% of the General Fund operating budget, it has been necessary to achieve cost savings through reduced personnel. In fiscal years (FY) 2004-2018, the City has reduced budgeted full time em ployees by 47 positions, returning the City’s total employee count below FY1992 levels. FY2016 budgeted full-time positions were reduced by 10 positions alone primarily by outsourcing dispatch operations. In February 2011, the City Council approved an organizational restructuring and Early Retirement Incentive (ERI) program which is offered and regulated by the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF). Twenty-six (26) em ployees participated in the ERI program, which is projected to generate net savings of $4.5 million over the initial ten year period. In December 2012, th e City Council approved the use of excess fund balance reserves to pay off the ERI liability in its entirety, rather than amortizing over ten years as initially anticipated. This early payoff allowed the City to avoid $1.8 million in interest costs over the amortization period. In September 2014, the City transitioned to a consolidated dispatch operation with the Villages of Glenview and Lake Bluff, as well as the City of Highland Park. The consolidation of dispatch operations is saving the City more than $350,000 per year while improving the infrastructure providing this vital service to residents. 22 iv Approximately half of the City’s General Fund revenues come from property taxes, which continue to be a stable revenue source. The other major funding sources of sales tax, income tax, utility taxes and building permit revenues met FY2017 budget estimates in aggregate. However, these revenues have yet to reach levels prior to the 2008 recession. Effective May 1, 2014, the City implemented a new sanitation fee that generates $600,000 per year. This revenue is currently deposited to the Capital Improvements Fund. The financial condition of the State of Illinois continues to be a significant concern although the City has limited its reliance on the State for direct funding. The City is vigilant in monitoring legislation that may be introduced that could have a negative impact on the City’s budget and vigorously opposes such legislation. The recently adopted State Budget for its fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, will impact the City’s fiscal year 2018 due to a reduction in income tax distributions and a newly imposed administration fee of 2% on home rule sales tax collections. No immediate expenditure reductions are necessary due to a budgeted operating surplus in the General Fund for FY2018, but the City Council and staff are discussing various fiscal scenarios for future years should the State continue to tap local revenues to balance its budget. In order to assist the business community and enhance sales tax revenues, economic development initiatives are conducted through the Office of the City Manager. The City has enlisted the services of an Economic Development Coordinator who acts as a liaison between the City, Lake Forest/Lake Bluff Chamber of Commerce and the business districts in Lake Forest. The City is committed to attracting desired businesses and to promote the viability of the business districts. More information can be found on the main page of the City’s website under Economic Development. In September 2017, Lake Forest was proud to host the BMW Championship, which brought the 70 top professional golfers from around the world to the City as part of the PGA Tour playoffs for the FedEx Cup. As it did in 2013 and 2015, the City actively embraced the event as a unique opportunity to market the community on an international stage. More than 115,000 spectators attended the 2015 event. In an effort to proactively address budgetary issues that may arise throughout the year, City staff monitors revenues and expenses on a monthly basis. Monthly financial “flash” reports are provided to the City Council Finance Committee. In addition, the City follows the fiscal policy approved annually by the City Council. The Fiscal Policy is designed to establish guidelines for the fiscal stability of the City and to provide guidelines for the City’s chief executive officer, the City Manager. Effective fiscal policy: Contributes significantly to the City’s ability to insulate itself from fiscal crisis, Enhances short-term and long-term financial credit ability by helping to achieve the highest credit and bond ratings possible, Promotes long-term financial stability by establishing clear and consistent guidelines, Directs attention to the total financial picture of the City rather than single issue areas, Promotes the view of linking long-term financial planning with day-to-day operations, and Provides the Council and the citizens a framework for measuring the fiscal impact of government services against established fiscal parameters and guidelines. In Fiscal Year 2016, the City Council adopted revisions to the Fiscal Policy effective for FY2017 and continuing in FY2018. The revised policy clarified the applicability of the Property Tax Extension Limitation Law to the City, established a policy for setting aside reserves to meet the City’s Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) liability, revised the financing parameters for establishment of Special Service Areas, and committed to minimizing reliance on State and/or Federal revenues to fund core services. Long–Term Financial Planning. The City is funding infrastructure expenditures primarily with a real estate transfer tax that was approved by voter referendum. This real estate transfer tax is imposed on residential and commercial real estate transactions. The transfer tax of $4.00 per $1,000 of value is levied on the buyer of the real estate. 23 v FY2017 real estate transfer tax revenue totaled $1.4 million. Significant fluctuations occur in this revenue source due to changes in economic conditions, and more specifically the housing market. The City will remain conservative in projecting this revenue source and in spending monies on capital projects. A Public Works Committee which consists of three City Council mem bers was created to oversee capital improvement projects and programs. Annually in October, the Public Works Committee and city staff finalize the draft of the Five Year Capital Improvement Program. This draft is discussed at a City Council budget meeting, typically held in November. Five-year fund balance forecasts are prepared for major funds of the City each year as part of the budget development process to assist the City in identifying budget challenges on the horizon and ensure that a proactive approach is taken to addressing these challenges. Pension Benefits. Escalating costs for em ployee pension benefits will continue to pose financial challenges to the City. Sworn police and fire personnel receive retirement and disability benefits from the Police Pension Fund and Firefighters’ Pension Fund, respectively. Both of these plans are defined benefit, single-em ployer plans administered by boards of trustees. The defined benefits and employee contribution levels are governed by Illinois Compiled Statutes and may only be amended by the Illinois General Assembly. Police participants are required to contribute 9.91% of their base salaries and fire participants are required to contribute 9.455% of their base salaries. The City is required to contribute the remaining am ounts necessary to finance each plan as determined by an independent actuary. As of April 30, 2017, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the funded ratio for the Police Pension Plan is 52.9% and for the Firefighters’ Pension Plan is 69.4%. All other employees of the City who work over 1,000 hours per ye ar are covered by the Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund (IMRF), a statewide pension plan. Benefit provisions and funding requirements are established by State statutes and may only be changed by the Illinois General Assembly. Employees participating are required to contribute 4.5% of their annual wages and the City is required to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to fund the coverage of its employees in the plan. As of December 31, 2016, the funded ratio for IMRF is 88%, including the actuarial accrued liability for retirees which is 100% funded. In early 2010, a bill was signed by the Governor with an effective date of January 1, 2011, approving a "two-tier" system, where current employees keep their existing pension plans, but new hires will join a less expensive new system. IMRF was included in the bill but not the Police and Firefighters’ pension plans. By the end of 2010, the Illinois General Assembly approved police and firefighter pension reform legislation effective January 1, 2011. The law does not affect the pensions of currently employed police officers and firefighters -only those hired after January 1, 2011. Although little of the cost savings from both bills will be seen immediately, it does provide the City long-term financial relief. Implementation of GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans,for Fiscal Year 2015 and No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, for Fiscal Year 2016 has resulted in significant changes to the reporting of pension obligations in the City’s financial statements. Over the past few ye ars, the City has made adjustments to the mortality table and interest rate assumptions for its police and fire pension fund actuarial valuations. These changes have reduced the funded ratio but are intended to put the City in an even stronger position going forward. These changes are in addition to historically overfunding the annual pension cost compared to minimum requirements per State Statutes. Additional information on the City’s pension obligations, as well as other postemployment benefits, may be found in Note IV of the financial statements, as well as in the Required Supplementary Information. Major Initiatives The City is committed to maintaining the quality of life and the preservation of the character and heritage of Lake Forest. The City must continue to adhere to its prudent financial managem ent practices and remain focused on sustaining long-term financial stability. For FY2017, the most significant initiatives were as follows: 24 vi In January 2015, the City Council approved ordinances adopting a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District on a 10-acre site at the north end of the Commercial Business District. This is the former site of the City’s municipal services center and has long been a focus of redevelopment for the City. In FY2016, the Cit y completed required demolition of existing structures and remediation of the site. In April 2016, the City Council approved a First Amendment to the Purchase/Sale Agreement, redevelopment agreement, final plat of subdivision and Final Development Planned Development Ordinance. The plan includes 165 total units –12 single family homes, 42 condominium units and 111 apartments. In FY2017, the City and developer closed on the sale of the property and construction has begun. A portion of the proceeds were used to call and retire the remaining principal due on the 2008 bond issue, saving $1.4 million in future interest costs. Construction of a new $190 million replacement hospital on the campus of the existing Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital is underway. City and Hospital representatives have worked closely on the planning and construction. The new hospital is scheduled to open in the first quarter of 2018. In February 2016, the City Council authorized final design of water plant improvements that will increase the plant capacity to 14 MGD (million gallons per day) and utilize GE membrane filters. In FY2017, design was completed and bidding of the project commenced. The City Council awarded the bid for construction on April 17, 2017, and construction has begun. A significant portion of the project will be funded from bonds issued in May 2017. Capital expenditures in Fiscal Year 2017 included: street improvements ($1.3 million), CBD Train Station restoration ($1.1 million –partially grant funded), Em erald Ash Borer tree removal and replacement ($188,000), and W ater/Sanitary Sewer capital improvements ($1.9 million).

The transfers decreased by $.5 million as noted above. The total cost of all City programs increased from $58.3 million in FY16 to $69.6 million in FY17 –an increase of $11.3 million or 19.4% -attributable to pension adjustments, non-capitalized improvements and a temporary loss on the sale of capital assets. USING THE FINANCIAL SECTION OF THE COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL REPORT The financial statement’s focus is on both the City as a whole (government-wide) and on the major individual funds. Both perspectives (government-wide and major fund) allow the user to address relevant questions, broaden a basis for comparison (year to year or government to government) and enhance the City’s accountability. Government-Wide Financial Statements The government-wide financial statements (see pages 17-19) are designed to be corporate-like in that all governmental and business-type activities are consolidated into columns which add to a total for the Primary Government. The focus of the Statement of Net Position (the Unrestricted Net Position) is designed to be similar to bottom line results for the City and its governmental and business-type activities. This statement combines and consolidates governmental fund’s current financial resources (short-term spendable resources) with capital assets and long term obligations using the accrual basis of accounting and economic resources measurement focus. The Statement of Activities (see page 18) is focused on both the gross and net cost of various activities (including governmental and business-type), which are supported by the government’s general taxes and other resources. This is intended to summarize and simplify the user’s analysis of the cost of various governmental services and/or subsidy to various business-type activities. 32 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 5 The Governmental Activities reflect the City’s basic services, including highways and streets, sanitation, culture and recreation, public safety and general government. Property taxes, sales tax, income taxes and local utility taxes finance the majority of these services. The Business-type Activities reflect private sector type operations (W aterworks and Sewerage, Golf) where the fee for service is intended to cover all or most of the costs of operation, including depreciation. Fund Financial Statements Traditional users of governmental financial statements will find the Fund Financial Statements presentation more familiar. The focus is on Major Funds, rather than fund types. The Governmental Major Funds (see pages 20 and 22) presentation is presented on a sources and uses of liquid resources basis. This is the manner in which the financial plan (the budget) is typically developed. The flow and availability of liquid resources is a clear and appropriate focus of any analysis of a government. Funds are established for various purposes and the Fund Financial Statement allows the demonstration of sources and uses and/or budgeting compliance associated therewith. The Fund Financial Statements also allow the government to address its Fiduciary Funds (Police Pension, Firefighters’ Pension, Cemetery Trust, and Special Assessment Funds). While these Funds represent trust responsibilities of the government, these assets are restricted in purpose and do not represent discretionary assets of the government. Therefore, these assets are not presented as part of the Government-Wide Financial Statements. While the Business-type Activities column on the Business-type Fund Financial Statements (see pages 24 - 26) is essentially the same as the Business-type column on the Government-Wide Financial Statement, the Governmental Major Funds Total column requires a reconciliation because of the different measurement focus (current financial resources versus total economic resources) which is reflected on the page following each statement (see pages 21 and 23). The flow of current financial resources will reflect debt proceeds and inter-fund transfers as other financing sources as well as capital expenditures and debt principal payments as expenditures. The reconciliation will eliminate these transactions and incorporate the capital assets and long- term obligations (bonds and others) into the Governmental Activities column (in the Government-wide statements). Infrastructure Assets Historically, a government’s largest group of assets (infrastructure –roads, bridges, storm sewers, etc.) were not reported nor depreciated in governmental financial statements. Generally accepted accounting principles now require that these assets be valued and reported within the Governmental Activities column of the government-wide Statements. Additionally, the government must elect to either (1)depreciate these assets over their estimated useful life or (2)develop a system of asset management designed to maintain the service delivery potential to near perpetuity. If the government develops the asset management system (the modified approach) which periodically (at least every third year) by category measures and demonstrates its maintenance of locally established levels of service standards, the government may record its cost of maintenance in lieu of depreciation. The City has chosen to depreciate assets over their useful life. If a road project is considered maintenance –a recurring cost that does not extend the road’s original useful life or expand its capacity –the cost of the project will be expensed. An “overlay” of a road will be considered maintenance whereas a “rebuild” of a road will be capitalized. 33 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 6 GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT Statement of Net Position The City’s combined net position decreased by $5.2 million for FY17 –from $227.4 million to $222.2 million. The analysis following will look at net position and net expenses of governmental and business-type activities separately. The total net position for the governmental activities decreased by $4.5 million –from $181.5 million to $177.0 million. The business-type activities net position decreased by $.7 million –from $45.9 million to $45.2 million. Table 1 reflects the condensed Statement of Net Position compared to FY16.

Normal Impacts There are six basic (normal) transactions that will affect the comparability of the Statement of Net Position summary presentation. Net Results of Activities will impact (increase/decrease) current assets and unrestricted net position. Borrowing for Capital will increase current assets and long-term debt. Spending Borrowed Proceeds on New Capital will reduce current assets and increase capital assets. There is a second im pact, an increase in capital assets and an increase in related net debt which will not change the net investment in capital assets. Spending of Non-borrowed Current Assets on New Capital will (a)reduce current assets and increase capital assets and (b)will reduce unrestricted net position and increase net investment in capital assets. 34 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 7 Principal Payment on Debt will (a)reduce current assets and reduce long-term debt; and (b)reduce unrestricted net position and increase net investment in capital assets. Reduction of Capital Assets through Depreciation will reduce capital assets and net investment in capital assets. Current Year Impacts The City’s $5.2 million decrease in combined net position (which is the City’s bottom line) was the result of the governmental activities net position decreasing by $4.5 million and the business-type activities net position decreasing by $.7 million. The governmental activities total assets decreased by $8.0 million (2.7%) and the governmental activities total liabilities decreased by $5.7 million (5.6%). With the implementation of GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions, long-term liabilities now include the net pension liability previously only disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. The decrease in total assets is primarily due to deletion of and depreciation on capital assets. The decrease in total liabilities is due to the retirement of general obligation bonds. See additional information in the Debt Outstanding section of the MD&A. A decrease in deferred outflows of $1.7 million related to pensions, while an increase in deferred inflows of $.5 million related to an increase in property taxes levied for future periods. Net investment in capital assets decreased by $10.9 million (6%) due to the sale of land owned by the City and depreciation. Restricted net position decreased $3.0 million largely due to bond proceeds expended for capital improvements. Unrestricted net position increased by $9.4 million primarily due to the net effect of GASB 68 reporting of pension obligations. The net position of business-type activities decreased by $.7 million, from $45.9 million to $45.2 million. The primary change in assets of the business-type activities was a decrease in capital assets due to depreciation expense exceeding capital additions. Long-term liabilities decreased by $1.9 million due to scheduled maturities of debt obligations. Net investment in capital assets decreased by a modest $.1 million, and unrestricted net position decreased by $.6 million. The majority of the unrestricted net position can be used by the City to finance water and sanitary sewer operations. The City has a policy of maintaining 33% of revenue plus one ye ar’s debt service plus $500,000 as a reserve in its water fund. The annual operating cost for this program is approxim ately $8.1 million per year and interest expense on bonds is $.4 million. Changes in Net Position The City’s combined change in net position was a decrease of $5.2 million in FY17. The City’s total revenues increased by $3.2 million, primarily driven by property taxes and interest income. The City’s cost of all programs increased by $11.3 million, largely attributable to pension adjustments, non-capitalized improvements and a temporary loss on the sale of capital assets. The chart on the following page compares the revenue and expenses for the current and previous fiscal year. 35 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 8 2017 2016 2017 2016 2017 2016 REVENUE Program Revenue Charges for Servic es $14.9 $14.7 $9.5 $9.2 $24.4 $23.9 Grants and Contributions Oper ating 1.1 1.4 1.1 1.4 Capital 1.2 0.3 1.2 0.3 General R evenue Property Taxes 25.9 25.0 25.9 25.0 Other Taxes 4.7 4.3 4.7 4.3 Intergover nm ental - Taxes 6.1 6.1 6.1 6.1 Interes t Revenue 1.0 0.1 1.0 0.1 Other 0.0 0.0 0.1 0.0 0.1 Total Revenue 54.9 51.9 9.5 9.3 64.4 61.2 EXPENSES Governm ental Activities General Governm ent 16.9 11.7 16.9 11.7 Highways and Streets 10.9 9.2 10.9 9.2 Sanitation 2.6 2.2 2.6 2.2 Culture and Rec reation 10.0 8.5 10.0 8.5 Public Safety 17.0 16.3 17.0 16.3 Interes t 1.6 1.3 1.6 1.3 Bus ines s-Type Activities W ater and Sew er 8.5 7.2 8.5 7.2 Golf 2.1 1.9 2.1 1.9 Total Expe nse s 59.0 49.2 10.6 9.1 69.6 58.3 Exce ss be fore T ransfe rs (4.1)2.7 (1.1)0.2 (5.2)2.9 Transfers In (out)(0.4)(0.9)0.4 0.9 0.0 0.0 Change in Net Pos ition (4.5)1.8 (0.7)1.1 (5.2)2.9 Net Position - Be ginning 181.5 179.7 45.9 44.8 227.4 224.5 Net Position - Ending $177.0 $181.5 $45.2 $45.9 $222.2 $227.4 Ac tivitie s Busine ss-T yp e Ac tiv itie s Total Primary Government Table 2 Change s in Net Position For the Fiscal Ye ar Ende d April 30, 2017 and 2016 (in millions) Governmental 36 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAUDITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 9 Property Tax 47% Sales Tax 5% Income Tax 4% Utility Tax 7% Real Estate Transfer Tax 3% Charges for Services 27%Grants 2% Other 3% Inv Income 2% FY2017 Governmental Activities Revenue Property Tax 48% Sales Tax 6% Income Tax 4% Utility Tax 7% Real Estate Transfer Tax 3% Charges for Services 28% Grants 3% Other 1% Inv Income 0% FY2016 Governmental Activities Revenue 37 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 10 General Government 29% Highways and Streets 18% Sanitation 4% Culture and Recreation 17% Public Safety 29%Interest on LT Debt 3% FY2017 Governmental Activities Expenses General Government 24% Highways and Streets 19% Sanitation 4% Culture and Recreation 17% Public Safety 33%Interest on LT Debt 3% FY2016 Governmental Activities Expenses 38 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 11 Normal Impacts There are eight basic impacts on revenues and expenses as reflected below. Revenues Economic Condition can reflect a declining, stable or growing economic environment and has a substantial im pact on state income, sales and utility tax revenue as well as public spending habits for building permits, elective user fees and volumes of consumption. Increase/Decrease in City approved rates –while certain tax rates are set by statute, the City Council has authority to impose and periodically increase/decrease rates (water, sewer, building fees, etc.). Changing Patterns in Intergovernmental and Grant Revenue (both recurring and non-recurring)–certain recurring revenues (state shared revenues, etc.) may experience significant changes periodically while non-recurring (or one-time) grants are less predictable and often distorting in their impact on year to year com parisons. Market Impacts on Investment income –investment income on the City’s investment portfolio may fluctuate based on market conditions. Expenses Introduction of New Programs – within the functional expense categories (Public Safety, Highways and Streets, General Government, etc.), individual programs may be added or deleted to meet changing community needs. Increase/Decrease in Authorized Personnel –changes in service demand may cause the City Council to increase/decrease authorized staffing. Staffing costs (salary and related benefits) represent nearly 70% of the City’s general fund operating costs. Salary Increases (annual adjustments and merit)–the ability to attract and retain human and intellectual resources requires the City to strive to approach a competitive salary range position in the marketplace. Inflation –while overall inflation appears to be reasonably modest, the City is a major consumer of certain commodities such as supplies, fuels and parts. Some functions may experience unusual commodity specific increases. Current Year Impacts Governmental Activities Revenue For the fiscal ye ar ended April 30, 2017, revenues from governmental activities totaled $54.9 million, increasing $3.0 million compared to FY16. The primary changes occurred in Capital Grants ($.9 million), Property Tax ($.9 million) and Interest Revenue ($.9 million). Property tax revenue increased by 3.6% over FY16 and Cemetery Fund investment income increased significantly over the prior year. Property tax revenue continues to be the City’s single largest revenue source, contributing $25.9 million (47%) of governmental activities revenue. Property tax revenues combined with sales tax, the local utility tax, shared state income tax and real estate transfer tax revenues total $36.7 million and represent 67% of the total governmental activities revenue. 39 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 12 The real estate transfer tax became effective July 5, 2006 with a 58% voter approval via referendum. The tax is im posed upon buyers of any residential or commercial real estate at a rate of $4.00 per $1,000 of value. The revenue is used strictly to improve the City’s infrastructure. The City’s 2016 equalized assessed valuation increased 5.9% compared to the prior year and totaled $2,443,072,671. Although the City became a home rule municipalit y in November 2004, the City has historically self-imposed the Illinois Property Tax Extension Limitation Laws (PTELL), otherwise known as the tax cap, to the extent possible. The increase of approximately 3.6% over FY16 in property taxes was generated as a result of the City Council adopting a 2.93% increase in the levy and new growth. While the tax cap applicable to this levy was .80%, the City Council elected to exceed this cap due to uncertainty regarding the State budget and potential loss of State-shared revenue. Investment income increased by $0.9 million, from $.1 million to $1.0 million. Most of this increase occurred in the Cemetery Fund. The City’s strategy for investing did not change but the City benefited from improved market conditions. Expenses For the fiscal year ended April 30, 2017, expenses for governmental activities totaled $59.0 million, an increase of $9.8 million (19.9%). The increase is due in large part to pension adjustments and a temporary loss on the sale of the property associated with the prior Municipal Services facility. Increases in personnel costs, which represent nearly 70% of the General Fund operating costs, continue to outpace revenue growth. With high demand for skilled em ployees in both the public and private sectors in this region, it is im portant that the City provide competitive com pensation levels for our em ployees. The FY17 expenses included funding for the City’s performance based em plo yee compensation package plus a 2.5% general salar y adjustment. Business-type Activities Revenue Total revenue for the business-type activities increased by $.2 million (2.2%) primarily due to an increase in charges for services in the Water and Sewer Fund. Expenses The City’s business-type activity expenses increased by $1.5 million (16.5%) due primarily to pension adjustments and non-capitalized improvements. 40 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 13 FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE CITY’S FUNDS Governmental Funds At April 30, 2017, the governmental funds (as presented on the balance sheet on page 20) reported a com bined fund balance of $49.5 million which is a $3.5 million (7.6%) increase from the beginning of the year ($46 million). This increase was largely driven by proceeds of capital asset sales of $5.6 million. Of the total fund balance of $49.5 million, $1.3 million is not available for continuing City services and capital projects. The unassigned fund balance for the total of all governmental funds is $28.8 million, which is a $6.3 million (28%) increase over the prior year. Major Governmental Funds The General Fund is the Cit y’s primary operating fund and the largest source of day-to-day service delivery. The total Fund Balance of the General Fund increased by $5.8 million or 24% from FY16 (from $23.8 million to $29.6 million). The General Fund revenues increased by $.9 million (2.5%) due primarily to an increase in property tax revenue. The General Fund expenditures decreased by $1.5 million (4.9%) due to a decrease in capital outlay of $1.8 million. The excess of revenues over expenditures (before transfers) for FY17 of $7.4 million exceeded FY16 ($5.0 million). The other financing sources (uses) were com parable, from $(1.7) million to $(1.6) million. Property taxes increased $.6 million, while other taxes increased $.2 million. Although the City became a home rule unit in November 2004, the City has historically self-imposed the Illinois Property Tax Extension Lim itation Law (PTELL), otherwise known as the tax cap. As noted previously, the 2015 levy extension (FY17 revenue) allowed for a 2.93% increase as well as new equalized assessed valuation growth. General Fund expenditures increased overall due to personnel cost increases. General government increased 3.1%, highways and streets increased 5.5% (primarily snow and ice control), sanitation was unchanged and public safety costs decreased .1%. In addition, General Fund capital outlay costs decreased by $1.8 million compared to FY16.

The primary variance resulted from building permit revenues exceeding projections. Actual General Fund expenditures were lower than the final budget by $5.3 million. It is the City’s policy to add 10%, which is 41 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 14 $3.3 million, of contingency funding to the budget appropriation. The contingency am ount is only for specific uses as determined by the Cit y Council and was not expended in FY17. Additional information can be found on the schedule of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance –budget and actual on page 90. The Parks and Recreation Fund accounts for the parks and recreation programs. Services include forestry and parks maintenance operations, a fitness center, dance academ y, and a variety of other indoor and outdoor programs. The Fund Balance of the Parks and Recreation Fund decreased by $.2 million, from $3.0 million to $2.8 million. The Parks and Recreation Fund revenues and expenditures were consistent with the prior year. Total other financing sources (uses) decreased by $.2 million, contributing to a net change in fund balance of $(246,306). The Capital Improvements Fund is reported as a Major Fund for FY17 and is used to account for revenues used to fund City building and infrastructure projects. Fund balance of this fund decreased by $1.4 million due to expenditure of bond proceeds from the prior year. Compared to FY16, revenue increased by $.5 million due to increases in grant revenue. Total expenditures decreased by $1.5 million in the capital outlay category. Proceeds of capital asset sales of $5.6 million were transferred to the Debt Service Fund. The Debt Service Fund is reported as a Major Fund for FY17 and is used to account for revenues used to retire non-Enterprise Fund obligations. Fund balance for FY17 decreased by $.2 million, from $1.6 million to $1.4 million. Transfers in of $6.8 million were used to retire all remaining principal on the 2008 General Obligation Bonds, saving the City $1.4 million in future interest costs.

This am ount represents a net decrease (including additions and deductions) of $15.9 million. The net decrease is attributable to a $14.1 million decrease in governmental activities and a $1.8 million decrease in the business-type activities. The $14.1 million decrease in the governmental activities was due to an $8.9 million net deletion due to the sale of the former Municipal Services site, $5.9 million of depreciation offset by $.7 million of capital 42 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 15 asset additions. The $1.8 million decrease in business-type activities was due to $2.8 million of depreciation offset by $1.0 million in asset additions.

Of this amount $24.8 million were payable from property taxes and the remainder were self-supporting. The City abates the property tax levies for these debt issues annually. The City’s per capita debt ratio for all direct and overlapping debt with other governmental units was $5,862 and $5,420 if self-supporting debt is excluded. The City operated as a home rule community for FY17. The City was granted home rule status via a referendum held on November 2, 2004. Under home rule authority, the City will not have a legal debt limit. For more detailed information on long-term debt activity, see pages 62-64. The City issued no additional debt in FY17. As of April 30, 2017, the City’s net pension liability is $52.4 million, an increase of $1.9 million over the $50.5 million balance as of April 30,2016. Additional information regarding the net pension liability can be found in Note IV. 43 CITY OF LAKE FOREST,ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS (UNAU DITED) APRIL 30, 2017 Page 16 Economic Factors Unemployment levels in Lake Forest are well below the levels for Lake County and the State of Illinois. For calendar year 2016, the Cit y’s annual average unemployment rate was estimated to be 4.6%, com pared to 5.2% for Lake County and 5.9% for the State of Illinois. The City maintains a Aaa bond rating from Moody’s Investors Service.

Page 3160 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The City of Lake Forest, Illinois (the City) was incorporated in 1861 under a charter granted by the Illinois State Legislature that was amended in 1869. The City is a home-rule municipality, under the 1970 Illinois Constitution, located in Lake County, Illinois. The City provides the following services as authorized by its charter: public safety (police and fire protection), water and sewer, recreation, refuse collection, a senior center, public library, a cemetery, and a golf course. The accounting policies of the City of Lake Forest, Illinois conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as applicable to governmental units. The accepted standard- setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles is the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). A.REPORTING ENTITY This report includes all of the funds of the City. The reporting entity for the City consists of the primary government and its component units. Component units are legally separate organizations for which the primary government is financially accountable or other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with the primary government are such that their exclusion would cause the reporting entity's financial statements to be misleading. The primary government is financially accountable if (1) it appoints a voting majority of the organization's governing body and it is able to impose its will on that organization, (2) it appoints a voting majority of the organization's governing body and there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the primary government, (3) the organization is fiscally dependent on and there is a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial burdens on, the primary government. Certain legally separate, tax exempt organizations should also be reported as a component unit if all of the following criteria are met: (1) the economic resources received or held by the separate organization are entirely or almost entirely for the direct benefit of the primary government, its component units, or its constituents; (2) the primary government or its component units, is entitled to, or has the ability to access, a majority of the economic resources received or held by the separate organization; and (3) the economic resources received or held by an individual organization that the primary government, or its component units, is entitled to, or has the ability to otherwise access, are significant to the primary government. Component units are reported using one of two methods, discrete presentation or blending. Generally, component units should be discretely presented in a separate column in the financial statements. A component unit should be reported as part of the primary government using the blending method if it meets any one of the following criteria: (1) the primary government and the component unit have substantively the same governing body and a financial benefit or burden relationship exists, (2) the primary government and the component unit have substantively the same governing body and management of the primary government has operational responsibility for the component unit, (3) the component unit serves or benefits, exclusively or almost exclusively, the primary government rather than its citizens, or (4) the total debt of the component unit will be paid entirely or almost entirely from resources of the primary government. Page 3261 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) A.REPORTING ENTITY (cont.) The Police Pension Employees Retirement System (PPERS) is established for the City's police employees. PPERS functions for the benefit of these employees and is governed by a five-member pension board. Two members appointed by the City’s Mayor with the approval of the City Council, one pension beneficiary elected by the beneficiaries, and two police employees elected by the active police constitute the pension board. The City and the PPERS participants are obligated to fund all PPERS costs based upon actuarial valuations. The State of Illinois is authorized to establish benefit levels and the City is authorized to approve the actuarial assumptions used in the determination of contribution levels. Although it possesses many characteristics of a legally separate government, PPERS is reported as if it were part of the primary government because its sole purpose is to finance and administer the pensions of the City’s police employees and because of the fiduciary nature of such activities. PPERS is reported as a pension trust fund and the data for the pension is included in the government's fiduciary fund financial statements. No separate annual financial report is issued for the PPERS. The Firefighters’ Pension Employees Retirement System (FPERS) is established for the City's firefighters. FPERS functions for the benefit of these employees and is governed by a five-member pension board. Two members appointed by the City’s Mayor with the approval of the City Council, one pension beneficiary elected by the beneficiaries; and two fire employees elected by the active firefighters' constitute the pension board. The City and the FPERS participants are obligated to fund all FPERS costs based upon actuarial valuations. The State of Illinois is authorized to establish benefit levels and the City is authorized to approve the actuarial assumptions used in the determination of contribution levels. Although it possesses many of the characteristics of a legally separate government, FPERS is reported as if it were part of the primary government because its sole purpose is to finance and administer the pensions of the City’s firefighters because of the fiduciary nature of such activities. FPERS is reported as a pension trust fund and the data for the pension is included in the government's fiduciary fund financial statements. No separate annual financial report is issued for the FPERS. Discretely Presented Component Unit Lake Forest Library The government-wide financial statements include the Lake Forest Library (Library) as a component unit. The Library is a legally separate organization governed by a seven-member Board of Trustees. The board of the Library is appointed by the Mayor of the City. The Library is financially accountable to the City as the City's approval is needed for the Library to issue bonded debt. Complete financial statements of the Library are available at the City's Administrative Office, 800 North Field Drive, Lake Forest, Illinois 60045. The Library follows the same accounting policies as the City. B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS In February 2015, the GASB issued statement No. 72 - Fair Value Measurement and Application. This statement addresses accounting and financial reporting issues related to fair value measurements. It defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. This standard was implemented May 1, 2016. Page 3362 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.) Government-Wide Financial Statements The statement of net position and statement of activities display information about the reporting government as a whole. They include all funds of the reporting entity except for fiduciary funds.The statements distinguish between governmental and business-type activities. Governmental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nonexchange revenues. Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or services. 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 are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. The City does not allocate indirect expenses to functions in the statement of activities. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment, and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not included among program revenues are reported as general revenues. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Fund Financial Statements Financial statements of the City are organized into funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts, which constitute its assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, net position/fund balance, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Page 3463 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.) Fund Financial Statements (cont.) Funds are organized as major funds or nonmajor funds within the governmental and proprietary statements. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental and proprietary categories. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the City or meets the following criteria: a. Total assets/deferred outflows of resources, liabilities/deferred inflows of resources, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or enterprise fund are at least 10% of the corresponding total for all funds of that category or type, and b. The same element of the individual governmental or enterprise fund that met the 10% test is at least 5% of the corresponding total for all governmental and enterprise funds combined. c. In addition, any other governmental or enterprise fund that the City believes is particularly important to financial statement users may be reported as a major fund. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. The City reports the following major governmental funds: General Fund - accounts for the City's primary operating activities. It is used to account for and report all financial resources except those accounted for and reported in another fund. Parks and Recreation Fund - used to account for the maintenance of parks and recreation programs. Services include a fitness center, dance academy, and a variety of other indoor and outdoor programs. Principal revenue sources for this fund include a dedicated tax levy, grants, contributions, and program fees. Capital Improvements Fund - used to account for revenues to be used to fund City building and infrastructure projects. Debt Service Fund - used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for the payment of general long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs. The City reports the following major enterprise fund: Waterworks and Sewerage Fund - accounts for operations of the waterworks and sewerage system for the residents of the City.

B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.) Fund Financial Statements (cont.) The City reports the following nonmajor governmental and enterprise funds: Special Revenue Funds - used to account for and report the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditures for specified purposes (other than debt service or capital projects). Asset Forfeiture Foreign Fire Insurance Tax Emergency Telephone Parks and Public Land Motor Fuel Tax General Cemetery Senior Resources Commission Housing Trust Capital Projects Funds - used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays, including the acquisition or construction of capital facilities and other capital assets. Route 60 Bridge Improvements Route 60 Intersection Improvements Laurel/W estern Redevelopment TIF Improvements Enterprise Fund - used to account for and report any activity for which a fee is charged to external uses for goods or services, and must be used for activities which meet certain debt or cost recovery criteria. Deerpath Golf Course In addition, the City reports the following fund types: Internal Service Funds - used to account for and report the financing of goods or services provided by one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the City, or to other governmental units, on a cost-reimbursement basis. Fleet Self Insurance Liability Insurance Page 3665 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) B.GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.) Fund Financial Statements (cont.) Private-Purpose Trust Fund - used to account for monies provided by private donations on which the investment earnings are expected to be used for the maintenance of each individual's cemetery plot. Pension (and Other Employee Benefit) Trust Funds - used to account for and report resources that are required to be held in trust for the members and beneficiaries of defined benefit pension plans, defined contribution plans, other postemployment benefit plans, or other employee benefit plans. Firefighters' Pension Police Pension Agency Fund - used to account for and report assets held by the City in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and/or other governmental units. C.MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION Government-Wide Financial Statements The government-wide statement of net position and statement of activities are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset used. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Taxes receivable for the following year are recorded as receivables and deferred inflows. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider are met. Special assessments are recorded as revenue when earned. Unbilled receivables are recorded as revenues when services are provided. As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Page 3766 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) C.MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION (cont.) Fund Financial Statements Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when they are both measurable and available. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues, except for property taxes and income taxes, to be available if they are collected within 90 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Revenues for property taxes are considered to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal year. Revenues for income taxes are considered to be available if they are collected within 120 days of the end of the current fiscal year. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for unmatured interest on long-term debt, claims, judgments, compensated absences, and pension expenditures, which are recorded as a fund liability when expected to be paid with expendable available financial resources. Property taxes are recorded in the year levied as receivables and deferred inflows. They are recognized as revenues in the succeeding year when services financed by the levy are being provided. Intergovernmental aids and grants are recognized as revenues in the period the City is entitled the resources and the amounts are available. Amounts owed to the City which are not available are recorded as receivables and unavailable revenues. Amounts received before eligibility requirements (excluding time requirements) are met are recorded as liabilities. Amounts received in advance of meeting time requirements are recorded as deferred inflows. Revenues susceptible to accrual include property taxes, miscellaneous taxes, public charges for services, special assessments and interest. Other general revenues such as fines and forfeitures, inspection fees, recreation fees, and miscellaneous revenues are recognized when received in cash or when measurable and available under the criteria described above. Proprietary and fiduciary fund financial statements (other than agency funds) are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as described previously in this note. Agency funds follow the accrual basis of accounting, and do not have a measurement focus. The 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 Waterworks and Sewerage Fund and the Deerpath Golf Course Fund are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for proprietary funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

C.MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT PRESENTATION (cont.) All Financial Statements 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, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY 1.Deposits and Investments For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City considers all highly liquid investments with an initial maturity of three months or less when acquired to be cash equivalents.

Investments are stated at fair value, which is the amount at which an investment could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties. Fair values are based on quoted market prices. No investments are reported at amortized cost. Adjustments necessary to record investments at fair value are recorded in the operating statement as increases or decreases in investment income. Investment income on commingled investments of municipal accounting funds is allocated based on average balances. The difference between the bank statement balance and carrying value is due to outstanding checks and/or deposits in transit. Illinois Funds is an investment pool managed by the State of Illinois, Office of the Treasurer, which allows governments within the State to pool their funds for investment purposes. Illinois Funds is not registered with the SEC as an investment company, but does operate in a manner consistent with Rule 2a7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 1.Deposits and Investments (cont.) The Police Pension Fund’s investment policy, in accordance with Illinois Statutes, establishes the following target allocation across asset classes: Asset Class Target Long-Term Expected Real Rate of Return Fixed Income 35%2.00% Domestic Equities 36%5.60% International Equities 18%5.90% Real Estate 10%5.40% Cash 1%(0.40)% Illinois Compiled Statues (ILCS) limit the Police Pension Fund's investments in equities, mutual funds and variable annuities to 65%. Securities in any one company should not exceed 5% of the total fund. The long-term expected rate of return on the Police Pension Fund's investments was determined using a building-block method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (net of pension plan investm ent expense and inflation) were developed for each major asset class. These ranges were combined to produce long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the Police Pension Fund's target asset allocation are listed in the table above.

Page 4372 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 2.Receivables (cont.) The county collects such taxes and remits them periodically. The 2016 property tax levy is recognized as a receivable and deferral in fiscal 2017, net the 1.5% allowance for uncollectible. As the taxes become available to finance current expenditures, they are recognized as revenues. At April 30, 2017, the property taxes receivable and related deferred inflows consisted of the estimated amount collectible from the 2016 levy. Property taxes for levy year 2017 attaches as an enforceable lien on January 1, 2017, on property values assessed as of the same date. Taxes are levied by December following the lien date (by passage of a Tax Levy Ordinance). The 2017 tax levy, which attached as an enforceable lien on the property as of January 1, 2017, has not been recorded as a receivable as of April 30, 2017, as the tax has not yet been levied by the City and will not be levied until December 2017, and therefore, the levy is not measurable at April 30, 2017. During the course of operations, transactions occur between individual funds that may result in amounts owed between funds. Short-term interfund loans are reported as "due to and from other funds." Long-term interfund loans (noncurrent portion) are reported as "advances from and to other funds." Interfund receivables and payables between funds within governmental activities are eliminated in the statement of net position. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the governmental-wide financial statements as internal balances. 3.Inventories and Prepaid Items Inventories are recorded at cost and are recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased. 4.Capital Assets Government-Wide Statements Capital assets, which include property, plant and equipment, are reported in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $10,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. All capital assets are valued at historical cost, or estimated historical cost if actual amounts are unavailable. Donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated fair value at the date of donation. Page 4473 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE I - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.) D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 4.Capital Assets (cont.) Government-Wide Statements (cont.) Additions to and replacements of capital assets of business-type activities are recorded at original cost, which includes material, labor, overhead, and an allowance for the cost of funds used during construction when significant. For tax-exempt debt, the amount of interest capitalized equals the interest expense incurred during construction netted against any interest revenue from temporary investment of borrowed fund proceeds. No interest was capitalized during the current year. The cost of renewals and betterments relating to retirement units is added to plant accounts. The cost of property replaced, retired or otherwise disposed of, is deducted from plant accounts and, generally, together with removal costs less salvage, is charged to accumulated depreciation. Depreciation and amortization of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the statement of activities, with accumulated depreciation and amortization reflected in the statement of net position. Depreciation and amortization is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method. The range of estimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows: Public domain infrastructure 20 - 60 Years Buildings 30 - 50 Years Improvements other than buildings 40 - 80 Years Vehicles, machinery, equipment, and software 3 - 20 Years Water mains 40 Years Sanitary sewers 50 Years Fund Financial Statements In the fund financial statements, capital assets used in governmental fund operations are accounted for as capital outlay expenditures of the governmental fund upon acquisition. Capital assets used in proprietary fund operations are accounted for the same way as in the government-wide statements. 5. Deferred Outflows of Resources A deferred outflow of resources represents a consumption of net position/fund balance that applies to a future period and will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until that future time. A deferred charge on refunding arises from the advance refunding of debt. The difference between the cost of the securities placed in trust for future payments of the refunded debt and the net carrying value of that debt is deferred and amortized as a component of interest expense over the shorter of the term of the refunding issue or the original term of the refunded debt. The unamortized amount is reported as a deferred outflow of resources in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements.

D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 6.Compensated Absences Under terms of employment, employees are granted sick leave and vacations in varying amounts. Only benefits considered to be vested are disclosed in these statements. All vested vacation and sick leave pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements, and are payable with expendable resources. 7.Long-Term Obligations All long-term obligations to be repaid from governmental and business-type resources are reported as liabilities in the government-wide statements. The long-term obligations consist primarily of notes and bonds payable, net pension liability, and accrued compensated absences. Long-term obligations for governmental funds are not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The face value of debts (plus any premiums) are reported as other financing sources and payments of principal and interest are reported as expenditures. The accounting in proprietary funds is the same as it is in the government-wide statements. For the government-wide statements and proprietary fund statements, bond premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the issue using the effective interest method. The balance at year end is shown as an increase or decrease in the liability section of the statement of net position. 8.Deferred Inflows of Resources A deferred inflow of resources represents an acquisition of net position/fund balance that applies to a future period and therefore will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that future time.

D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 9. Equity Classifications Government-Wide Statements Equity is classified as net position and displayed in three components: a. Net investment in capital assets - Consists of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances (excluding unspent debt proceeds) of any bonds, mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. b. Restricted net position - Consists of net position with constraints placed on their use either by 1) external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or, 2) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. c. Unrestricted net position - All other net positions that do not meet the definitions of "restricted" or "net investment in capital assets." When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed. Fund Statements Governmental fund balances are displayed as follows: a. Nonspendable - Includes fund balance amounts that cannot be spent either because they are not in spendable form or because legal or contractual requirements require them to be maintained intact. b. Restricted - Consists of fund balances with constraints placed on their use either by 1) external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or 2) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. c. Committed - Includes fund balance amounts that are constrained for specific purposes that are internally imposed by the government through formal action of the highest level of decision making authority. Fund balance amounts are committed through a formal action (resolution) of the City Council. This formal action must occur prior to the end of the reporting period, but the amount of the commitment, which will be subject to the constraints, may be determined in the subsequent period. Any changes to the constraints imposed require the same formal action of the City Council that originally created the commitment.

D.ASSETS, DEFERRED OUTFLOWS OF RESOURCES, LIABILITIES, DEFERRED INFLOWS OF RESOURCES AND NET POSITION OR EQUITY (cont.) 9. Equity Classifications (cont.) Fund Statements (cont.) d. Assigned - Includes spendable fund balance amounts that are intended to be used for specific purposes that do not meet the criteria to be classified as restricted or committed. Intent is expressed by: a) The City Council itself; or b) a body or official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. Annually, the City Council approves the fiscal policy which delegates this authority to the City's Finance Director. Within the other governmental fund types (special revenue, debt service, capital projects) resources are assigned in accordance with the established fund purpose and approved budget/appropriation. Assignments may take place after the end of the reporting period. e. Unassigned - Includes residual positive fund balance within the general fund which has not been classified within the other above mentioned categories. Unassigned fund balance may also include negative balances for any governmental fund if expenditures exceed amounts restricted, committed, or assigned for those purposes. Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the government-wide statements. In the General Fund, it is the City's policy to consider restricted resources to have been spent first when an expenditure is incurred for which both restricted and unrestricted (i.e. committed, assigned, or unassigned) fund balances are available, followed by committed, and then assigned fund balances. Unassigned amounts are only used after the other resources have been used. In other governmental funds (special revenue, capital projects, and debt service fund types), it is the City's policy to consider restricted resources to have been spent last. W hen an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balances are available, the City first uses any assigned amounts, followed by committed and then restricted amounts. See Note III. G. for further information. Page 4877 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE II - STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY A.BUDGETARY INFORMATION The budget amounts represent the operating budget for the City and the appropriations represent the City's legal expenditure limit. The City Council follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary and appropriations data reflected in the financial statements: (1)The City Manager submits to the City Council a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year. The operating budget includes proposed expenditures and estimated revenues. (2)Public budget and appropriations meetings are conducted by the City to obtain taxpayer comments. (3)The budget and the appropriation ordinance, which is 10% higher than the budget, are both legally enacted through action of the City Council. Once enacted, the budget cannot be amended without approval from the City Council. Funds may have expenditures in excess of budgeted amounts, but legally may not have expenditures in excess of appropriations. (4)The legal level of budgetary control is the fund level. Management may make transfers of appropriations within a fund. Any expenditures that exceed the total appropriations at the fund level must be approved by the City Council. (5)Formal budgetary integration and legally adopted budgets are employed as a management control device during the year for the General and Special Revenue Funds, through an internal reporting system. Such budgetary integration permits the City's department managers to monitor actual revenues and expenditures relative to budgets on an ongoing basis throughout the year. Formal encumbrance accounting is not used, and appropriations not used by the end of the fiscal year lapse. (6)Governmental fund budgets are adopted for all funds and are on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). All proprietary funds have budgets and are generally in accordance with GAAP except that principal retirement is budgeted and deprecation expense is not budgeted. Additionally, the Pension Trust Funds adopted budgets which are generally in accordance with GAAP.

In addition, if deposits are held in an institution outside of the state in which the government is located, insured amounts are further limited to a total of $250,000 for the combined amount of all deposit accounts. The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. As of April 30, 2017, the City's investments were measured using the market value approach and the valuation inputs as follows: April 30, 2017 Investment Type Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total Equity securities $3,382,527 $-$-$3,382,527 Mutual funds - bond funds 513,895 --513,895 Mutual funds - other than bond funds 914,415 --914,415 Total $4,810,837 $-$-$4,810,837 Page 5180 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE III - DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (cont.)

A.DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS (cont.) Custodial Credit Risk Deposits Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that in the event of a financial institution failure, the City's deposits may not be returned to the City. The City's investment policy requires that deposits that exceed the amount insured by FDIC, NCUA, and/or SPIC insurance be collateralize at the rate of 110% of such deposits, by U.S. Government Securities, obligations of Federal instrumentalities, obligations of the state of Illinois, or general obligation bonds of the City. The Cemetery Investment Fund and the Pension Funds do not have a deposit policy for custodial credit risk. The City does not have any deposits exposed to custodial credit risk. Investments Custodial credit risk is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in possession of an outside party. The investment policies for the City, Cemetery, and Pension Funds require investment securities be held by an authorized custodial bank pursuant to a written custodial agreement. The City does not have any investments exposed to custodial credit risk. Credit Risk Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty will not fulfill its obligation. The City's investment policy limits the City's exposure to credit risk by limiting investments to the safest types as described above. The Cemetery and Pension Funds' general investment policy is to follow the prudent person rule subject to specific restrictions of the Illinois Cemetery Care Act, the Illinois Pension Code, and the respective Cemetery and Pension Fund's asset allocation policy. Under the prudent person rule, investments shall be made with care, skill, prudence, and diligence under the prevailing circumstances that a prudent person acting in similar capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the investment of a fund or like character and with like aims. The Cemetery and Police Pension Funds' investment policy further limits the investment in any one company or issuer to 5% of the funds' total assets. The Cemetery fund also limits the investment in any one equity industry group to no more than 15% of the Fund's assets. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations.

Although the City and Cemetery Fund's investment policy does not specifically limit the length of maturity of investments, it requires that the City and Cemetery Fund to minimize the interest rate risk by structuring the investment portfolio so that securities mature to meet cash requirements for ongoing operations, thereby avoiding the need to sell securities on the open market prior to maturity and by investing operating funds primarily in short-term securities, money market mutual funds, or similar investment pools. The Police Pension Fund's investment policy does not limit the length of maturity of investments since it is passively managing its fixed income exposure to the Barclays Capital Intermediate Government Index. Although the Firefighters' Pension Fund's investment policy does not specifically limit the length of maturity of investments, it manages interest rate risk by investing fixed income assets in proportion to the present value of the Fund's projected liabilities.

To diversify risk, the Firefighters' Pension Fund uses an equity asset allocation that incorporates a variety of management styles. The allocations are reviewed quarterly and rebalanced if necessary. To diversify risk, the Police Pension funds are well diversified across international regions.

The benefits, benefits levels, employee contributions and employer contributions for the plans are governed by Illinois Compiled Statutes and can only be amended by the Illinois General Assembly. The Police Pension Plan and the Firefighters' Pension Plan do not issue separate reports on the pension plans. IMRF does issue a publicly available report that includes financial statements and supplementary information for the plan as a whole, but not for individual employers. That report can be obtained from IMRF, 2211 York Road, Suite 500, Oak Brook, Illinois 60523. Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund Plan description.All employees (other than those covered by the Police and Firefighters' Pension plans) hired in positions that meet or exceed the prescribed annual hourly standard must be enrolled in IMRF as participating members. IMRF has a two tier plan. Members who first participated in IMRF or an Illinois Reciprocal System prior to January 1, 2011 participate in Tier 1. All other members participate in Tier 2. For Tier 1 participants, pension benefits vest after 8 years of service. Participating members who retire at age 55 (at reduced benefits) or after age 60 (at full benefits) with 8 years of service are entitled to an annual retirement benefit, payable monthly for life in an amount equal to 1-2/3% of their final rate of earnings (average of the highest 48 consecutive months' earnings during the last 10 years) for credited service up to 15 years and 3% for each year thereafter. Em ployees hired on or after January 1, 2011, are eligible for Tier 2 benefits. For Tier 2 participants, pension benefits vest after 10 years of service. Participating members who retire at age 62 (at reduced benefits) or after age 67 (at full benefits) with 10 years of service are entitled to an annual retirement benefit, payable monthly for life in an amount equal to 1-2/3% of their final rate of earnings for the first 15 years of service credit, plus 2% for each year of service after 15 years to a maximum of 75% of their final rate of earnings. Final rate of earnings is the highest total earnings during any 96 consecutive months within the last 10 years of service, divided by 96. Under Tier 2, the pension is increased every year after retirement, upon reaching age 67, by the lesser of 3% of the original pension amount or 1/2 of the increase in the Consumer Price Index of the original pension amount. Under the employer number within IMRF, both the City and Library contribute to the plan. As a result, IMRF is considered to be an agent multiple-employer plan through which cost-sharing occurs between the City and Library. Plan membership. At December 31, 2016, the measurement date, membership in the plan was as follows: Retirees and beneficiaries 262 Inactive, non-retired members 177 Active members 198 Total 637 Page 6796 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) A.EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM (cont.) Contributions. As set by statute, City and Library employees participating in IMRF are required to contribute 4.50% of their annual covered salary. The statute requires the City and Library to contribute the amount necessary, in addition to member contributions, to finance the retirement coverage of its own employees. The City and Library’s actuarially determined contribution rate for calendar year 2016 was 12.77% of annual covered payroll for IMRF. The City and Library also contribute for disability benefits, death benefits and supplemental retirement benefits, all of which are pooled at the IMRF level. Contribution rates for disability and death benefits are set by the IMRF Board of Trustees, while the supplemental retirement benefits rate is set by statute. Net Pension Liability/(Asset). The net pension liability/(asset) was measured as of December 31, 2016, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability/(asset) was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability/(asset), deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of IMRF and additions to/deductions from IMRF fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by IMRF. For this purpose, benefit payments (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability for IMRF was determined by actuarial valuations performed as of December 31, 2016 using the following actuarial methods and assumptions: Actuarial cost method Entry Age Normal Asset valuation method Market Value Actuarial assumptions Investment Rate of Return 7.50% Inflation 3.50% Salary increases 3.75% to 14.50%, including inflation Price inflation 2.75% Mo rtality. For non-disabled retirees, an IMRF specific mortality table was used with fully generational projection scale MP-2014 (base year 2012). The IMRF specific rates were developed from the RP-2014 Blue Collar Health Annuitant Mortality Table with adjustments to match current IMRF experience. For disabled retirees, an IMRF specific mortality table was used with fully generational projection scale MP- 2014 (base year 2014). The IMRF specific rates were developed from the RP-2014 Disabled Retirees Mortality Table applying the same adjustment that were applied for non-disabled lives. For active members, an IMRF specific mortality table was used with fully generational projection scale MP-2014 (base year 2012). The IMRF specific rates were developed from the RP-2014 Employee Mortality Table with adjustments to match current IMRF experience. Page 6897 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) A.EMPLOYEES' RETIREMENT SYSTEM (cont.) Long-Term Expected Real Rate of Return. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using an asset allocation study in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) were developed for each major asset class. These ranges were combined to produce long-term expected rate of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. The target allocation and best estimates of arithmetic and geometric real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table: Projected Returns/Risks Asset Class Target Allocation One Year Arithmetic Ten Year Geometric Equities 38.00%8.30%6.85% International equities 17.00%8.45%6.75% Fixed income 27.00%3.05%3.00% Real estate 8.00%6.90%5.75% Alternatives 9.00% Private equity 12.45%7.35% Hedge funds 5.32%5.25% Commodities 4.25%2.65% Cash equivalents 1.00%2.25%2.25% Discount rate.The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for IMRF was 7.50%. The discount rate calculated using the December 31, 2015 measurement date was 7.48%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rate and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the fiduciary net position was projected not to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on investments of 7.50% was blended with the index rate of 3.78% for tax exempt 20-year general obligation municipal bonds with an average AA credit rating at December 31, 2016 to arrive at a discount rate of 7.50%used to determine the total pension liability. The year ending December 31, 2115 is the last year in the 2017 to 2116 projection period for which projected benefit payments are fully funded.

Police sworn personnel are covered by the Police Pension Plan, which is a defined benefit single-employer pension plan. Although this is a single employer pension plan, the defined benefits and employee and employer contribution levels are governed by Illinois State Statutes (Chapter 40 ILCS 5/3) and may be amended only by the Illinois legislature. The City accounts for the plan as a pension trust fund. As provided for in the Illinois Compiled Statutes, the Plan provides retirement benefits as well as death and disability benefits to employees grouped into two tiers. Tier 1 is for employees hired prior to January 1, 2011 and Tier 2 is for employees hired after that date. The following is a summary of the Police Pension Fund as provided for in Illinois Compiled Statutes. Tier 1 - Covered employees attaining the age of 50 or more with 20 or more years of creditable service are entitled to receive an annual retirement benefit of one half of the salary attached to the rank on the last day of service, or for one year prior to the last day, whichever is greater. The pension shall be increased by 2.5% of such salary for each additional year of service over 20 years up to 30 years to a maximum of 75% of such salary. Employees with at least 8 years but less than 20 years of credited service may retire at or after age 60 and receive a reduced retirement benefit. The monthly pension of a police officer who retired with 20 or more years of service after January 1, 1977 shall be increased annually, following the first anniversary date of retirement and paid upon reaching at least the age 55, by 3% of the original pension and 3% compounded annually thereafter. Tier 2 - Covered employees attaining the age of 55 or more with 10 or more years of creditable service are entitled to receive a monthly pension of 2.5% of the final average salary for each year of creditable service. The salary is initially capped at $106,800 but increases annually thereafter and is limited to 75% of final average salary. Employees with 10 or more years of creditable service may retire at or after age 50 and receive a reduced retirement benefit. The monthly pension of a police officer be increased annually on the January 1 occurring either on or after the attainment of age 60 or the first anniversary of the pension start date, whichever is later. Each annual increase shall be calculated at 3% or one-half the annual unadjusted percentage increase in the CPI, whichever is less.

Police Pension (cont.) Plan membership. At April 30, 2017, the Police Pension membership consisted of: Retirees and beneficiaries 40 Inactive, non-retired members 8 Active members 40 Total 88 Contributions. Covered employees are required to contribute 9.91% of their base salary to the Police Pension Plan. If an employee leaves covered employment with less than 20 years of service, accumulated employee contributions may be refunded without accumulated interest. The City is required to contribute the remaining amounts necessary to finance the plans as actuarially determined by an enrolled actuary. Effective January 1, 2011 the City’s contributions must accumulate to the point where the past service cost for the Police Pension Plan is 90% funded by the year 2040. The City's actuarially determined contribution rate for the fiscal year ending April 30, 2017 was 50.54% of annual covered payroll. Net Pension Liability/(Asset). The net pension liability/(asset) was measured as of April 30, 2017, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability/(asset) was determined by an annual actuarial valuation as of that date. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The financial statements of the Police Pension Plan are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Plan member contributions are recognized in the period in which contributions are due. The City’s contributions are recognized when due and a formal commitment to provide the contributions are made. Benefits and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the terms of the plan. Plan investments are reported at fair value. Short-term investments are reported at cost, which approximated fair value. Investments that do not have an established market are reported at estimated fair values.

The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation performed as of April 30, 2017 using the following actuarial methods and assumptions: Actuarial cost method Entry Age Normal Asset valuation method Market Value Actuarial assumptions Interest rate 7.00% Inflation 2.50% Projected salary increases Service Based Cost-of-living adjustments Tier 1: 3.00% Tier 2: 3.00% Mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 CHBCA Mortality Table. The actuarial assumptions were based on the results of an actuarial experience study conducted by the Illinois Department of Insurance dated September 26, 2012. Discount rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for the Police Pension Plan was 7.00%, the same as the prior valuation. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

Fire sworn personnel are covered by the Firefighters' Pension Plan, which is a defined benefit single-employer pension plan. Although this is a single employer pension plan, the defined benefits and employee and employer contribution levels are governed by Illinois State Statutes (Chapter 40 ILCS 5/3) and may be amended only by the Illinois legislature. The City accounts for the plan as a pension trust fund. As provided for in the Illinois Compiled Statutes, the Firefighters' Pension Plan provides retirement benefits as well as death and disability benefits to employees grouped into two tiers. Tier 1 is for employees hired prior to January 1, 2011 and Tier 2 is for employees hired after that date. The following is a summary of the Firefighters' Pension Plan as provided for in Illinois Compiled Statutes. Tier 1 - Covered employees attaining the age of 50 or more with 20 or more years of creditable service are entitled to receive a monthly retirement benefit of one half of the monthly salary attached to the rank held in the fire service at the date of retirement. The monthly pension shall be increased by one twelfth of 2.5% of such monthly salary for each additional month over 20 years of service through 30 years of service to a maximum of 75% of such monthly salary. Employees with at least 10 years but less than 20 years of credited service may retire at or after age 60 and receive a reduced retirement benefit. The monthly pension of a firefighter who retired with 20 or more years of service after January 1, 1977 shall be increased annually, following the first anniversary date of retirement and paid upon reaching at least the age 55, by 3% of the original pension and 3% compounded annually thereafter. Tier 2 - Covered employees attaining the age of 55 or more with 10 or more years of creditable service are entitled to receive a monthly pension of 2.5% of the final average salary for each year of creditable service. The salary is initially capped at $106,800 but increases annually thereafter and is limited to 75% of final average salary. Employees with 10 or more years of creditable service may retire at or after age 50 and receive a reduced retirement benefit. The monthly pension of a firefighter shall be increased annually on the January 1 occurring either on or after the attainment of age 60 or the first anniversary of the pension start date, whichever is later. Each annual increase shall be calculated at 3% or one-half the annual unadjusted percentage increase in the CPI, whichever is less.

The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation performed as of April 30, 2017 using the following actuarial methods and assumptions: Actuarial cost method Entry Age Asset valuation method 5-year average Market Value Actuarial assumptions Interest rate 7.00% Inflation 2.50% Projected salary increases 5.50% Cost-of-living adjustments Tier 1: 3.00% Tier 2: 3.00% Mortality rates were based on the RP-2000 CHBCA Mortality Table. The actuarial assumptions were based on the results of an actuarial experience study conducted by the Illinois Department of Insurance dated September 26, 2012. Discount rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for the Firefighters' Pension Plan was 7.00%, the same as the prior valuation. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that member contributions will be made at the current contribution rate and that City contributions will be made at rates equal to the difference between actuarially determined contribution rates and the member rate. Based on those assumptions, the Plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on Plan investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

The City accounts for its risk of loss in the Liability Insurance Fund through payments to the Intergovernmental Risk Management Agency. Page 82111 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) B.RISK MANAGEMENT (cont.) Public Entity Risk Pool IRMA The City participates in the Intergovernmental Risk Management Agency (IRMA). IRMA is an organization of municipalities and special districts in Northeastern Illinois that have formed an association under the Illinois Intergovernmental Co-operations Statute to pool their risk management needs. The agency administers a mix of self-insurance and commercial insurance coverages; property/casualty and workers’ compensation claim administration/litigation management services; unemployment claim administration; extensive risk management/loss control consulting and training programs; and a risk information system and financial reporting service for its members. The City’s payments to IRMA are displayed on the financial statements as expenditures/expenses in appropriate funds. The City assumes the first $25,000 of each occurrence, and IRMA has a mix of self- insurance and commercial insurance at various amounts above that level. Each member appoints one delegate, along with an alternate delegate, to represent the member on the Board of Directors. The City does not exercise any control over the activities of IRMA beyond its representation on the Board of Directors. Initial contributions are determined each year based on the individual member’s eligible revenue as defined in the bylaws of IRMA and experience modification factors based on past member loss experience. Members have a contractual obligation to fund any deficit of IRMA attributable to any membership year during which they were a member. Supplemental contributions may be required to fund these deficits.

Page 85114 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) E.OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS Plan Description In addition to providing the pension benefits described in Note IV. A., the City and Library (hereinafter City) provide post-employment health care benefits (OPEB) for retired employees. Hereinafter, the medical and dental plan benefits offered are referred to as the "Plan." The Plan offers several medical and dental insurance benefits options to eligible retirees and their dependents. The benefits, benefit levels, employee contributions and employer contributions are governed by the City Council and can only be amended by the City Council. The Plan is not accounted for as a trust fund and an irrevocable trust has not been established. The City does not issue a Plan financial report. Funding Policy The contribution requirements of plan members and the City are established and may be amended by the City Council and are detailed in the various plan benefit booklets provided to employees. The required contribution is based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements. For fiscal year 2017 the City contributed $196,571, representing current premiums. The City’s annual other postemployment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC) The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities (or funding excess) over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table shows the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually contributed to plan, and changes in the City’s net OPEB obligation to the Retiree Health Plan: City Library Annual required contribution $196,247 $29,871 Interest on net OPEB obligation 11,382 1,951 Adjustment to annual required contribution (9,485)(1,626) Annual OPEB cost 198,144 30,196 Contributions made (188,313)(8,258) Increase in net OPEB obligation 9,831 21,938 Net OPEB Obligation - Beginning of Year 284,538 48,771 Net OPEB Obligation - End of Year $294,369 $70,709 Page 86115 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) E.OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (cont.) The City's annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation were as follows: Fiscal Year Ended Annual OPEB Cost Percentage of Annual OPEB Cost Contributed Net OPEB Obligation City: April 30, 2015 $224,739 87.30%$229,476 April 30, 2016 233,865 76.46%284,538 April 30, 2017 198,144 95.04%294,369 Library: April 30, 2015 $22,996 17.80%$31,144 April 30, 2016 24,039 26.55%48,771 April 30, 2017 30,196 27.35%70,709 The funded status of the plan as of April 30, 2017, the most recent actuarial valuation date, was as follows: City Library Actuarial accrued liability (AAL)$3,736,584 $286,873 Actuarial value of plan assets -- Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (UAAL)$3,736,584 $286,873 Funded ratio (actuarial value of plan assets/AAL)-%-% Covered payroll (active plan members)$21,743,897 $1,778,891 UAAL as a percentage of covered payroll 17.18%16.13% The projection of future benefit payments for an ongoing plan involves estimates for the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents multiyear trend information that shows whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits. Page 87116 CITY OF LAKE FOREST NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS As of and for the Year Ended April 30, 2017 NOTE IV - OTHER INFORMATION (cont.) E.OTHER POSTEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (cont.) Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce short- term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations. In the April 30, 2017, actuarial valuation, the entry age actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial assumptions included a 4.0 percent investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses), which is a blended rate of the expected long-term investment returns on plan assets and on the employer's own investments calculated based on the funded level of the plan at the valuation date, and an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 8.5 percent initially, reduced by decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.5 percent ultim ately. Both rates included a 3.0 percent inflation assumption. The actuarial value of assets were determined using market value. The UAAL is being amortized as a level percentage of projected payroll on an open basis. The remaining amortization period at April 30, 2017 was 30 years. F.SUBSEQUENT EVENTS On June 05, 2017 the City issued general obligation bonds in the amount of $9,295,000 with an interest rate range of 2.00 - 3.50%. This amount will be used for the purpose of financing certain capital improvements to the City's water treatment plant. G.LAUREL AND WESTERN TAX INCREMENT FINANCING (TIF) DISTRICT The City approved the Laurel and W estern TIF in January 2015. The TIF district is comprised of 10.6 acres. The City acquired the single parcel not previously owned by the City and prepared the site for a mix of housing options. Demolition of the seven structures was completed in preparation for the developm ent of the site. The City entered into a Property Purchase Agreement with Focus Acquisition Company LLC for the sale and redevelopment of all the developable land within the district. Following environm ental remediation and site preparation required by the City, as well as the completion of contingency and inspection periods under the agreement, the sale of the property was closed in September 2016. The purchase price of the City property was $12 million, consisting of $5.625 million paid to the City at closing and a TIF Note of $6.375 million executed between the City and the developer. The TIF Note was subsequently assigned by the developer to the City to allow repayment of the note from future TIF increment. As of April 30, 2017, the City has not received any TIF increment and anticipates the TIF increment to begin with the 2017 levy year, collected in 2018 (City’s FY2019). Because the TIF Note does not meet the definition of an asset pursuant to GASB Concept Statement 4 as of the financial statement date, the Note receivable has not been reported on the City’s financial statements. Revenue will be recognized as payments on the TIF Note are made. A redevelopment agreement between the City and developer was also executed in September 2016. As of April 30, 2017, the City has received the development fees of $2,368,712 and construction has begun. The development plan calls for a mix of housing consisting of 12 single family homes, 42 condominium units and 111 apartments.

The Percentage of debt is calculated by the percentage of the City's EAV in relation to the overlapping government's EAV. The gross debt is found on the Lake County website. Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the City. This s chedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the residents and businesses of the City of Lake Forest. This process recognizes that, when considering the government's ability to issue and repay long-term debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken into account. However, this does not imply that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for repaying the debt, of each overlapping government. 215 Page 179 CITY OF LAKE FOREST Legal Debt Margin Information Last Ten Fiscal Years 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Debt limit N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Total net debt applicable to limit N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Legal debt margin N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Total net debt applicable to the limit as a percentage of debt limit N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A N/A Note: Legal debt margin from 1997-2004 was 8.625% of assessed value. * City of Lake Forest achieved home rule status in November 2004.
