COUNTY COURTHOUSE   April 11, 2017      To the Citizens and  Members of the Board of County Commissioners,  Collier County, Florida:    It is with extreme pleasure that we present to you, the citizens of Collier County and members of  the Board of County Commissioners, the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the  fiscal year ended September 30, 2016.  Responsibility for the accuracy of the data and the  completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with the Board of  County Commissioners and County management.      The Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller’s Finance and Accounting Department, as well as  County management, is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls to provide  reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from  unauthorized use or disposition, the reliability of financial records for preparing financial  statements and maintaining accountability of assets.  The concept of reasonable assurance  recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived, and the  evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.      Chapter 218.39 of the Florida Statutes requires an independent certified public accountant’s  financial audit of counties in the State.  For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 the  independent auditor, CliftonLarsonAllen LLP, issued an unmodified opinion on the financial  statements.  Their report is included in the Financial Section of this report.  In addition to meeting  the requirements set forth in State statutes, the audit was also designed to meet the  requirements of the Government Auditing Standards, the Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations  (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements  for Federal Awards and the Rules of the Auditor General, Chapter 10.550 Local Governmental  Entity Audits.  Information relating to the Single Audits, including the schedule of expenditures  of federal awards and state financial assistance and the independent auditors’ report on  compliance and internal control over compliance with requirements applicable to each major  federal program and state project, are included in the Federal and State Single Audit Section of  this report.    Governmental accounting and auditing principles require that management provide a narrative  introduction, overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of  Dwight E. Brock - Clerk of Circuit Court 3315 TAMIAMI TRL E STE 102 NAPLES, FL 34112-5324 P.O. BOX 413044 NAPLES, FL 34101-3044 Clerk of Courts  Comptroller  Auditor  Custodian of County Funds ii Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A).  This letter of transmittal is designed to  complement MD&A and the two should be read in concert.  Collier County’s MD&A can be found  in the Financial Section immediately following the independent auditors’ report.  PROFILE OF THE GOVERNMENT  Collier County is a Constitutional form of government and was established in 1923 under the  Constitution and the laws of the State of Florida.  The Board of County Commissioners is the  legislative body for Collier County and is made up of five residents elected by voters.  In addition  to the County Commissioners, voters elect the following five constitutional officers: the Clerk of  the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Supervisor of Elections and Tax  Collector.  The County provides its citizens with a wide range of services that include law enforcement,  emergency management, fire and EMS services, animal services, library, museum and cultural  services, parks and recreation operations, road maintenance and construction.  Additionally, the  County owns and operates a water and wastewater utility, a solid waste landfill and recycling  program, a landfill gas to energy facility, three airports and a transit system.    Budgets are prepared annually. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management  control throughout the year.  The Board of County Commissioners conducts budget workshops  during June of each year.  The Board’s proposed budget is released by July 15, in accordance with  Florida Statutes.  The budgets of Constitutional Officers are presented to the appropriate  authorizing bodies according to state statute.  Public hearings are held in September to allow  taxpayer input and to adopt the final budget.    ECONOMIC CONDITION AND OUTLOOK  Collier County, the state’s largest county at 2,026 square miles, is on the southwest coast of  Florida, directly west of Miami.  With a 2016 population of 353,936 (a 6 percent increase over  the last ten years), Collier County has been considered to be one of the fastest growing counties  in the state over the last ten years.  The resident population includes Unincorporated County  (pop. 314,323) and three municipalities: the Cities of Naples (pop. 21,512), Marco Island (pop.  17,690) and Everglades (pop. 411).  The County’s economic base is concentrated in tourism,  agriculture, fishing, ranching and forestry with a growing services economy and an emerging  technology sector.  Gulf of Mexico beaches and the Everglades National Park are important  attractions to this area.    Taxable property market valuation for fiscal year 2016 totaled $70.1 billion, or a very high  $198,027 per capita.  The County’s millage for General Fund operations in fiscal year 2016  remained at only 36% of the statutory 10 mill limit, or $3.56 per thousand dollars of taxable value.   Unemployment levels in recent years approximate, or are slightly below, the statewide average.   The 2016 annual County unemployment rate stood at 4.9%, while the statewide average is 5.0%.   Income levels are high, with a per capita personal income of $78,473.  iii LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLANNING  The County annually performs a three‐year projection of major ad valorem supported funds  (General Fund and the Unincorporated Area Municipal Services Taxing District Fund) prior to  developing annual budget policy. On an annual basis the County prepares and adopts a five‐year  Capital Improvement Element (CIE).  The CIE is a planning document that identifies public  facilities that will be required during the next five or more years.  The Capital Improvement  Element is the foundation of Collier County’s annual Capital Improvement Program (CIP).  The  total CIP projects planned for fiscal years 2017‐2021 is $764.6 million. Included in the County’s  current CIP for fiscal years 2017‐2021 are approximately $283.7 million in water and wastewater  projects, $281.6 million in transportation projects, $32.2 million in stormwater projects and  $35.6 million in government facilities projects.  In addition, parks and recreation projects of  approximately $44.8 million are planned, as well as $43.8 million for tourist development funded  projects, $19.9 million in solid waste projects, $10.1 million in library projects, $9.5 million in  public safety projects and miscellaneous projects totaling $3.4 million.  None of the fiscal year  2017 – 2021 Capital Improvement Program is currently planned to be funded by bond or loan  proceeds.  RELEVANT FINANCIAL POLICIES  Relevant financial policies include the appropriation of carryforward as revenue in the following  year, maintaining a recommended General Fund unassigned fund balance of between 8% and  16% of actual expenditures and net operating transfers, the assessment of impact fees at such  levels as allowed by law and supported by studies, and the earmarking of gas taxes for payment  of debt service on the Series 2012 and 2014 Gas Tax Revenue and Refunding Bonds.    Debt administration policies include the limitation of the debt repayment period to the useful  life of the underlying assets and the establishment of a 5% benchmark for net present value  savings generated by refinancing.  The Collier County Debt Management Policy provides that a  smaller net present value savings may be considered, but only on a case‐by‐case basis.  In  addition, the debt policy establishes a maximum ratio of total general governmental debt service  to bondable revenues from current sources of 13%.  Consistent with Collier County’s Debt Management Policy, outstanding debt is continually  monitored in relation to existing conditions in the debt market.  When sufficient cost savings can  be realized debt will be refinanced.  During fiscal year 2016, the County Water and Sewer District  refunded its remaining Series 2006 Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds.  This refinancing achieved  a net present value savings of over 5% and is further described in Note 6 to the financial  statements.  The Clerk’s Finance and Accounting Department monitors the daily cash needs of the County and  invests the County’s portfolio in accordance with the Collier County Investment Policy.  The  primary objective of the investment policy is the preservation of capital and the protection of  investment principal.  Authorized investments include certificates of deposit, the Local  Government Funds Surplus Trust Fund, U.S. treasury securities, U.S. agency securities,  commercial paper and bankers’ acceptances.  The weighted average maturity of the total  managed portfolio, to first call or maturity, was .76 years as of September 30, 2016.  The average  yield for fiscal year 2016 was .94%, which constitutes a reduction from historical rates, but an  iv increase over recent years.  Changes in the fair value of investments are recorded as part of  interest income in the financial statements.    AWARDS  GFOA Certificate of Achievement:  The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded  a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to Collier County, Florida for its  Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015.   The Certificate of Achievement is a prestigious national award, recognizing conformance with the  highest standards for preparation of state and local government financial reports.

A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only.  Collier County has received  this award for the past thirty years, from fiscal year 1986 to 2015.  We believe our current report  conforms to the Certificate of Achievement program requirements, and we are submitting it to  the GFOA for consideration for an award again this year.  Distinguished Budget Presentation Awards:

THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK  CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com   INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business- type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Collier County, Florida (County), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the entity’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County as of September 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof, and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund, the Bayshore Gateway Redevelopment Agency special revenue fund, and the Immokalee Redevelopment Agency special revenue fund for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A) on pages 4 – 15, the schedules of the county’s proportionate share of the net pension liability and of county contributions on page 81, and the other postemployment benefits schedule of funding progress for the retiree health plan on page 82 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Other Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the County’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund financial statements and other supplemental information, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards and state financial assistance, as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards and Chapter 10.550, Local Governmental Entity Audits, Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida, is also presented for purposes of additional analysis and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements. 2 Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida Other Matters (Continued) Other Information (Continued) The combining and individual fund financial statements and other supplemental information and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards and state financial assistance are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole. The introductory section and the statistical section have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 22, 2017, on our consideration of the County's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP Naples, Florida March 22, 2017 3 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS  (UNAUDITED)      As Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller of Collier County, Florida, I present the readers of the County’s financial  statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of Collier County for the fiscal year ended September  30, 2016.  Readers are encouraged to consider the information presented in this narrative in conjunction with additional  information offered in the letter of transmittal, found on pages i‐v of this report.      Financial Highlights     Collier County’s assets and deferred outflows exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows as of September  30, 2016 by $2,484,013,381.  Of this amount, $171,764,839 represents unrestricted net position and may  be used to meet future County obligations.     The County’s total net position increased by $44,490,810 when compared to fiscal year 2015, with a  $27,322,069 increase from governmental activities and a $17,168,741 increase resulting from business‐ type activities.      As of September 30, 2016 Collier County’s governmental fund financial statements showed combined  ending fund balances of $441,586,665, an increase of $29,052,786 over the previous fiscal year.  Of the  total combined ending governmental fund balance, $53,872,028 is reported as unassigned.        The General Fund reported an unassigned fund balance of $53,960,944 at September 30, 2016, a decrease  in unassigned General Fund balance of $1,041,240 when compared to September 30, 2015.     Total face value of bonded debt, notes, outstanding loans and capital leases owed by Collier County  decreased by $45,380,286 during fiscal year 2016, with a decrease in governmental activities debt of  $20,743,470 and a decrease in the business‐type activities debt of $24,636,816.  In May of 2016, the  Collier County Water and Sewer District issued the Series 2016A County Water and Sewer Bonds to  current refund the remaining Series 2006 Collier County Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds.  Additional  information on debt activity can be found in Note 6 to the financial statements beginning on page 54.      Overview of the Financial Statements    This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction and explanation of Collier County’s basic financial  statements.  Collier County’s basic financial statements include government‐wide and fund financial statements, as well as  notes to the basic financial statements.  This report also contains a statistical section, single audit and other supplementary  information in addition to the basic financial statements.      Government‐Wide Financial Statements    Government‐wide financial statements are designed to provide the reader an overview of the financial position of the County  and are similar to private sector financial statements.  These statements are comprised of a Statement of Net Position and a  Statement of Activities and are found on pages 16 to 19 of this report.      The Statement of Net Position shows the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2016.  The statement shows  the County’s assets plus deferred outflows of resources less its liabilities plus deferred inflows of resources, with the  difference being reported as net position.  Changes in net position are useful indicators of financial condition.         4     The Statement of Activities follows the Statement of Net Position and reports the changes in net position over the fiscal  period.   All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying events that gave rise to the change occur,  regardless of the timing of the related cash flows.  Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items, such as accounts  receivable, notes receivable or accrued unused vacation and sick leave, that will manifest themselves in cash inflows and  outflows, respectively, in future fiscal periods.    These statements distinguish Collier County functions that are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues  (governmental activities), from business‐type activities, which are intended to have their costs primarily recovered through  user fees and charges.    Governmental activities reported in the financial statements are general government, public safety, physical environment,  transportation, economic environment, human services and culture and recreation.  Business‐type activities in Collier County  include water and sewer, solid waste collections, airport operations, transit operations and emergency medical services.       Fund Financial Statements    A fund is a group of related accounts used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated to meet specific  objectives.  As dictated by generally accepted accounting principles, Collier County uses fund accounting to ensure and  demonstrate compliance with financial legal requirements.  The funds of the County can be divided into the following three  categories: governmental, proprietary and fiduciary.      Governmental funds     Governmental funds, presented on pages 20 to 28, account for substantially the same functions as governmental activities  reported under the government‐wide Statement of Net Position and Statement of Activities.  The difference is that the  governmental fund financial statements focus on inflows and outflows of expendable resources, as well as balances of  expendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year, on a near term basis.   As such, these statements present a  narrower view of financial condition, but are nonetheless useful in evaluating Collier County’s near term financing  requirements and available resources.     Comparison between the two sets of financial statements allows the reader to better assess the future impact of the  government’s near term financial decisions.  Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the statement of revenues,  expenditures and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to the respective government‐wide financial statements  to facilitate comparison.    Governmental funds presented individually in Collier County’s statements include three major funds, the General Fund and  the Bayshore Gateway and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Agencies.  While there are many smaller governmental  funds under Collier County management, they are aggregated in a total column named “other governmental funds”.   Combining statements for these other governmental funds have been presented elsewhere in this report.    Collier County adopts an annual budget as described in Note 1 to the financial statements.  A budgetary comparison  statement has been provided for the General Fund and each major special revenue fund to demonstrate compliance with  this budget.  Budgetary comparison schedules for any non‐major governmental fund required to adopt an annual budget is  presented in the combining statements presented elsewhere in this report.    Proprietary funds    Collier County maintains two different types of proprietary funds, enterprise and internal service, which are reflected on  pages 29 to 33 of this report.    Enterprise funds report, with more detail, the same functions presented as business‐type activities in the government‐wide  financial statements for water and sewer, solid waste disposal, emergency medical services, transit and the airport authority.   The Collier County Water and Sewer District Fund, the Solid Waste Disposal Fund and the Emergency Medical Services Fund  are presented individually as major funds.   5     Internal service funds are primarily maintained to allocate and accumulate costs internally for Collier County.  The County  uses internal service funds to account for health insurance, worker’s compensation insurance, property and casualty  insurance, fleet operations and information technology.  The internal service funds are presented in total in the proprietary  fund financial statements, but may be viewed on a combining basis elsewhere in the report.      Fiduciary funds    Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside of Collier County government.  These  funds are not presented in the government‐wide financial statements as they do not represent resources available to support  Collier County functions.  The fiduciary funds are presented on page 34 of this report.  All of the County’s fiduciary funds are  agency funds.  The accounting used for agency funds is based on the concept that assets equal liabilities when the government  is acting in a fiduciary capacity.        Notes to the Financial Statements        The notes provide additional information essential to a full understanding of the data provided in both the government‐wide  and fund financial statements.  The notes appear on pages 35 to 79 of this report.      Other Information    The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules mentioned above present more detailed  views of nonmajor governmental and enterprise funds and begin on page 85.  This section contains combining balance sheets  and statements of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balance for governmental funds, including budgetary  comparisons, and combining statements of net position and statements of revenues, expenses and changes in fund net  position for enterprise funds.  Also included are combining financial statements for internal service and agency funds.      Additional information about the County, which may be of interest to the reader, can be found under the Statistical and Single  Audit sections of this report.  The statistical section has been prepared in accordance with Governmental Accounting  Standards Board Statement No. 44, Economic Condition Reporting: The Statistical Section.  This section contains data  regarding financial trends, revenue capacity, debt capacity, demographic and economic conditions and operating indicators  of the County.  The Single Audit grants compliance section lists the expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial  Assistance during the fiscal year and presents grant compliance information as well as auditor reports.      Government‐Wide Financial Analysis     As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial position.  Assets and  deferred outflows exceeded liabilities and deferred inflows by $2,484,013,381 as of the fiscal year ending September 30,  2016 for Collier County.  Positive balances were reported in all categories of net position in the governmental and business‐ type activities for fiscal year 2016, as well as fiscal year 2015.  Collier County’s net position at September 30, 2016 decreased  by $6,449,867 for unrestricted net position and increased $33,835,875 for restricted net position. Restricted net position  consists of resources subject to external restriction on how they may be used while unrestricted net position may be used to  meet the County’s ongoing obligations.  Increases in restricted net position were mainly due to a 40.0% increase in restricted  net position related to transportation capital projects and a 29.3% increase in total impact fee collections, which are restricted  for growth related capital expansion.         The fiscal year 2015 implementation of GASB Statements No. 68 and 71, related to pensions, had a significant impact on the  reporting of the County’s long term liabilities and net position for both governmental and business‐type activities. These  statements require the County to record its proportionate share of the long term liability and deferred inflows and outflows  associated with the Florida Retirement System’s defined pension benefit plan and the retiree health insurance subsidy  program.           6     Collier County’s investment in capital assets such as land, roads, buildings, parks and machinery and equipment, net of  depreciation or any outstanding debt related to the asset, amounts to 78.4% of net position as of September 30, 2016,  compared to 79.2% as of September 30, 2015.   During fiscal year 2016, the County’s net investment in capital assets increased  by $17,104,802.  Capital assets are used to provide services to the citizens and consequently do not represent spendable  resources and cannot be used to liquidate the debt incurred to purchase or construct capital assets.      The following are Collier County’s net position and changes in net position for the fiscal years ended September 30, 2015 and  2016, shown in condensed form:      2016 2015 2016 2015 2016 2015

Revenue by Type Business‐type Activities Fiscal Year  2016 10 Governmental Activities   The current year increase in the net position of governmental activities amounted to $27,322,069, an increase of 1.8% when  compared to the previous year’s net position.  The previous fiscal years’ increase in net position was 4.2%.  The current years’  increase is mainly due to the following:  Overall, revenues related to governmental activities increased by 2.5%, or $12,960,436 while expenses increased by 10.7%, or $47,490,517. Governmental activities revenues increased primarily due to an increase in total ad valorem taxes collected in fiscal year 2016 of $21,356,784 when compared to fiscal year 2015. In addition, Half Cent Sales Tax and Gas Tax collections increased a combined 5.2% over fiscal year 2015, or $3,017,685. Governmental activities expenses increased primarily due to increases in the public safety and general government functional areas.  Public safety expenses increased predominately due to an increase in pension expense over the amount recognized in fiscal year 2015.  General government expenses increased due to increases in pension expense, salaries and maintenance expense related to facilities. Business‐type Activities   The increase in net position related to business‐type activities amounted to $17,168,741 in the aggregate, representing a  1.9% increase over the previous year’s net position.  The previous fiscal years’ increase in net position was also 1.9%.  The  current years’ increase is mainly due to the following:  The majority of the increase, or $11,902,262, can be attributed to the Collier County Water and Sewer District (District).  The increase in the District’s net position is largely due to a 5.0% rate increase that went in to effect October 1, 2015.  In addition, water and sewer impact fee collections, charged to new construction, increased by 7.9% when compared to fiscal year 2015. Solid waste contributed $2,534,151 to the overall increase in business‐type activities net position.  User charges increased by $2,821,006, or 7.2% over fiscal year 2015, primarily as a result of a 6.9% increase in residential and commercial municipal waste tonnage and construction and demolition waste being accepted into the Naples landfill during fiscal year 2016.  Operating costs increased primarily due to an increase in landfill operating costs. Emergency Medical Services contributed $2,751,781 to the overall increase in business‐type activities net position.  User charges increased by $866,066 over fiscal year 2015 as a result of a 3.5% increase in ambulance calls over the same interval.  Operating transfers from the governmental activities exceeded the operating loss generated by the operation of Emergency Medical Services. Fund Financial Statement Analysis   As mentioned above, Collier County utilizes fund accounting to ensure compliance with finance related legal requirements.  Governmental Funds  Governmental funds provide information on near term inflows, outflows and balances of spendable resources.  Unassigned  fund balance is a useful measure of net resources available to be spent at the end of the fiscal year.  Governmental funds  consist of the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Permanent Fund, Debt Service Funds and Capital Project Funds.  As of September 30, 2016, Collier County governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $441,586,665, an increase

balances of $6,730,508 consisting of inventory, prepaid items, notes receivable and General Fund and Other Governmental  Fund advances to other funds.  The restricted fund balance was $324,597,817 and consists of monies whose expenditure is  externally constrained by grantors, creditors, binding law or enabling legislation.  Of the remaining $110,258,340 in fund  11     balance, $26,069,145 is classified as committed, $30,317,167 is recorded as assigned and $53,872,028 is recorded as  unassigned.      The following were noteworthy activities and changes relating to the major governmental funds for fiscal year 2016:    

balance in the General Fund was $59,573,533, of which $53,960,944 was unassigned.  As a percentage of  total general fund expenditures and net transfers, the unassigned portion is 17.1%.  The total fund balance  decreased by $618,110 or 1.0%, compared to the September 30, 2015 total fund balance.    

increment revenues.  Operating expenditures of $381,889 were associated with the Immokalee  Community Redevelopment Agency.      Proprietary Funds     Proprietary fund statements provide the same information as the business‐type activities in the government‐wide financial  statements, but in greater detail, and on a fund basis for enterprise funds.    At September 30, 2016, total net position amounted to $926,808,495 for enterprise funds, as compared to $909,442,595, as  of September 30, 2015, an increase of $17,365,900.  Net position changes as a result of operations, non‐operating revenues  and expenses, capital contributions and grants and donations.  The Collier County Water and Sewer District’s activities  represent the largest share of the increase in the business‐type net position.      For the year ended September 30, 2016, the Collier County Water and Sewer District reported capital grants and contributions  of $22,737,854, which consists of water and sewer impact fees of $13,643,674, $8,941,251 in developer infrastructure  contributions and other capital contributions of $152,929.    2016 2015

marginal change in net operating income was the result of a 6.9% increase in residential and commercial municipal waste  tonnage and construction and demolition waste offset by an increase in landfill operating costs during fiscal year 2016.  Total

increase in charges for services.  Operating expenses increased mainly due to increased personal services costs, including  pension expense.   Capital Assets

The primary government consists of Collier County, a political subdivision of the State of Florida that was established in 1923  by the Florida State Legislature.  The County is governed by a Board of County Commissioners which consists of five members  elected within single member districts.  In addition, there are five separately elected Constitutional Officers:  the Tax Collector,  Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller and Supervisor of Elections.  The Constitutional Officers  are elected county wide.  Under the direction of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, the Finance and Accounting  Department maintains the accounting system for the operations of the Board of County Commissioners, Supervisor of Elections  and the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller.  The Tax Collector, Property Appraiser and Sheriff each maintain their own  accounting systems.  For financial reporting purposes, the operations of the Board of County Commissioners and the  Constitutional Officers are combined and presented as the primary government.  The County's blended component units consist of organizations whose respective governing Boards are composed entirely of  the Board of County Commissioners serving ex‐officio.  These entities are legally separate, however the County has the financial  and operational responsibility for these component units.  In accordance with GASB Statement No. 14, as amended, these  organizations are reported as if they were part of the County's operations.  Collier County Water and Sewer District (District) ‐  The District was established by Chapter 88‐499, Laws of Florida, as amended  by Chapter 03‐353, to provide water, sewer and effluent services to portions of the unincorporated area of Collier County.    Collier County Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) ‐ The CRA was established by Resolution 2000‐82 to benefit blighted  areas in both the Immokalee Redevelopment and Bayshore/Gateway Triangle Redevelopment Areas.  These two  redevelopment areas are geographically separate and distinct.  Collier County Airport Authority ‐ The Board of County Commissioners was established as the governing body of the Airport  Authority by Ordinance 2010‐10.  The Airport Authority is responsible for construction, improvement, equipment, development,  regulation, operation and maintenance of the Marco Island, Immokalee and Everglades Airports and all related airport facilities.  Collier County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) ‐ The Authority was created in 1981 by Collier County Resolution 81‐ 222 pursuant to Section 334.215, Florida Statutes, as amended by Section 339.175, Florida Statutes.  The purpose of the MPO  is to provide planning for all modes of travel in order to benefit the citizens of Collier County.  The MPO is reported as part of  the Grants and Shared Revenues fund.   36 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  The County's discretely presented component units consist of organizations whose board members are appointed by the Board  of County Commissioners.  The County is able to impose its will on these entities because of its ability to remove appointed  members from the component units' Boards.  The Authorities maintain their own financial records, but do not issue separate  financial statements.  GASB No. 14, as amended, requires that the financial data of the following organizations be reported in  separate columns to emphasize that they are legally separate from the County.    Collier County Housing Finance Authority ‐ The Authority was formed in 1980 by Collier County Ordinance 80‐66 for the  purpose of stimulating the construction of residential housing for low and moderate income families through the use of public  financing.  Their financial position and results of operations are reported in the accompanying financial statements and the  outstanding conduit debt issued by the Authority is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit Debt Obligations”.   Collier County Health Facilities Authority ‐ The Authority was established in 1979 by Collier County Ordinance 79‐95 for the  purpose of assisting health facilities in the acquisition, construction and financing of projects within the County.  Their financial  position and results of operations are reported in the accompanying financial statements and the outstanding conduit debt  issued by the Authority is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit Debt Obligations”.   Collier County Industrial Development Authority ‐ The Authority was created in 1978 by Collier County Resolution 78‐94,  rescinded and replaced by Resolution 79‐34, to facilitate the financing of projects that promote economic growth and increase  opportunities for employment in the County.  Their financial position and results of operations are reported in the  accompanying financial statements and the outstanding conduit debt issued by the Authority is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit  Debt Obligations”.   Collier County Educational Facilities Authority ‐ The Authority was created in 1999 by Collier County Resolution 99‐17 to assist  institutions for higher education in the construction, financing and refinancing of projects. Their financial position and results  of operations are reported in the accompanying financial statements and the outstanding conduit debt issued by the Authority  is disclosed in Note 7, “Conduit Debt Obligations”.

NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  Certain separate legal entities within the County are autonomous organizations with their own governmental powers and  constituencies.  These entities, which are not included in these financial statements, are as follows:  The Cities of Naples, Marco Island and Everglades ‐ The Cities of Naples, Marco Island and Everglades are in the boundaries of  Collier County. Each of these entities has a separately elected board and separate budgeting, accounting and reporting  requirements.  Collier County School Board ‐ The Collier County School Board operates countywide and is completely separate and  autonomous.  The School Board has five elected board members and a superintendent of schools and operates under  regulations prescribed by the State Board of Education and the Florida Statutes.  It levies its own taxes and receives part of its  income from the State of Florida.    GOVERNMENT‐WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  The basic financial statements are made up of the government‐wide financial statements and fund financial statements. Both  of these sets of financial statements distinguish between the governmental and business‐type activities of Collier County.  The  government‐wide financial statements consist of a Statement of Net Position and a Statement of Activities.  These statements  report on the financial condition of Collier County, at the reporting entity level.  Internal balances represent net amounts due  between the governmental and business‐type activities.  As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated  from the government‐wide financial statements with the exception of interfund services provided and used.  The internal  service activity has also been eliminated from the government‐wide financial statements.  Aggregate internal service fund  activity is reported in full as a single column in the proprietary fund financial statements. Fiduciary funds are not included in  these presentations as their assets do not represent amounts that are available for Collier County government operations.  The  Statement of Net Position reports all financial and capital resources of Collier County’s governmental and business‐type  activities.  Net position equals assets plus deferred outflows of resources minus liabilities plus deferred inflows of resources,  and is shown in three categories:  net investment in capital assets; restricted net position and unrestricted net position.  The  Statement of Activities reports results of operations on a functional activity (program) basis and demonstrates to what degree  the particular program has been self‐supporting.  Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a service, program or department and, thus are clearly  identifiable to a particular function.  The effect of indirect expense allocations has been eliminated in the government‐wide  financial statements.  Depreciation expense for capital assets that can specifically be identified with a function is recorded as a  direct expense of that function.  Depreciation for capital assets that serve all functions is recorded as a direct expense of the  general government function on the government‐wide Statement of Activities. All interest on general long term debt is  considered indirect and is reported separately in the government‐wide Statement of Activities.  Program revenues are reported in the following three categories:  charges for services, operating grants and contributions and  capital grants and contributions.  Charges for services are amounts charged to customers for a particular service, and are netted  against the cost of the relevant program.  Internal charges for indirect services are allocated across functions as direct expenses.   Grants and contributions refer to revenues restricted for capital or operational use in a particular program.  The general revenue  category encompasses all other revenue types and represents revenue collected to support all functions of Collier County  government.  The fund financial statements follow the government‐wide statements and report more detailed information about operations  of major funds on an individual basis and nonmajor funds on an aggregate basis for the governmental and proprietary funds.   Following the governmental fund balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances are  reconciliations explaining the differences between the governmental fund presentation and the government‐wide  presentation.      38 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  BASIS OF PRESENTATION  The following are reported as major governmental funds:  General Fund – the General Fund is the general operating fund of the County.  All general tax revenues and  other receipts that are not accounted for in other funds are accounted for in the General Fund.  The general  operating funds of the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller, Property Appraiser, Sheriff, Supervisor of  Elections and Tax Collector are presented together with the Board of County Commissioners' general  operating fund in the County’s consolidated General Fund.  Bayshore/Gateway and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Area Special Revenue Funds – the  Redevelopment funds are used to account for the receipt and expenditure of tax increment revenues  generated by the Bayshore/Gateway and Immokalee Community Redevelopment Areas.     The following are reported as major enterprise funds:  County Water and Sewer Fund – the County Water and Sewer fund is used to account for the provision of  water, wastewater and effluent services to certain portions of the County’s unincorporated area.

Emergency Medical Services – the Emergency Medical Services fund is used to account for the provision of  emergency ambulance and paramedical services to users throughout the County.  Collier County also maintains the following nonmajor fund types:  Special Revenue Funds – Special revenue funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue  sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specific purposes other than debt service or  capital projects.  Permanent Fund – Permanent funds are used to account for resources that were legally restricted to the  extent that only earnings and not principal may be spent.  Collier County operates a permanent fund to defray  costs associated with the maintenance and management of conservation land.    Debt Service Funds – Debt service funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources that are  restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest related to long‐term obligations.  Capital Project Funds – Capital project funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources that are  restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays including the acquisition or construction  of capital facilities and other capital assets.   Enterprise Funds – Enterprise funds are used to account for activities for which a fee is charged to external  users for goods or services.  Internal Service Funds – Internal service funds are used to account for the provision of goods and services by  one department to other departments within the County or to other governmental units on a cost  reimbursement basis.  Collier County currently reports the following Internal Service Funds:  Self Insurance,  Sheriff’s Self Insurance, Fleet Management, Motor Pool Capital Recovery and Information Technology.  39 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  Agency Funds – Agency funds are custodial in nature and do not report the results of operations (assets equal  liabilities).  Agency funds are clearing accounts for assets held by the government as an agent for individuals,  private organizations or other governments.  The Board of County Commissioners, Sheriff, Clerk of the Circuit  Court and Comptroller and Tax Collector all maintain agency funds.    MEASUREMENT FOCUS AND BASIS OF ACCOUNTING  Measurement focus indicates the type of resources being measured such as current financial resources (current assets less  current liabilities) or economic resources (all assets and liabilities).  Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and  expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts and reported in the financial statements.  The basis of accounting  relates to the timing of the measurements made regardless of the measurement focus applied   The government‐wide and proprietary fund financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement  focus and the accrual basis of accounting. With this measurement focus, all assets and liabilities associated with the operation  of these funds are included on the Statement of Net Position and the operating statements present increases (i.e., revenues)  and decreases (i.e., expenses) in net position.  Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized in the period in  which they are earned and measurable, and expenses are recognized in the period incurred.  Grant and similar revenues are  recognized when eligibility requirements are met.  Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non‐ operating 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.  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 non‐operating revenues and expenses.  Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the  modified accrual basis of accounting.  With this measurement focus, only current assets and current liabilities generally are  included on the balance sheet.  Operating statements of these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing  sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in fund balance. Under the modified accrual basis of  accounting, revenues are recognized when they become measurable and available to finance expenditures of the fiscal period.   Generally, revenues are considered available when they are collected within the current period or within 60 days after the end  of the fiscal year.  Grant revenues are an exception and are considered available when eligibility requirements are met.  Primary  revenues which have been treated as susceptible to accrual include, where material, charges for services, interest earnings and  certain taxes and intergovernmental revenues.  Property taxes are discussed later in Note 1.  Expenditures are recorded when  the related fund liability is incurred.  Exceptions to this general rule include accrued compensated absences and principal and  interest on long‐term debt.   When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available, restricted resources will be used first for incurred expenses,  and then unrestricted as needed.  When using the unrestricted resources, committed amounts would be reduced first, followed  by assigned amounts, and then unassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of  those unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used.   40 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY DATA  The following are the statutory procedures followed by the Board of County Commissioners in establishing the budgets for the  County:  1)Within fifteen days after certification of the ad valorem tax roll by the Property Appraiser, the County budget officer prepares and presents to the Board a tentative budget for the ensuing fiscal year.  The budget includes all estimated receipts and all estimated expenditures, reserves and balances to be carried forward at the end of the year as specified in Section 129.03, Florida Statutes. 2)Within eighty days of the certification of value, but not earlier than sixty‐five days after certification, the Board holds a public hearing on the tentative budget and proposed millage rate.  At this hearing the Board amends and adopts the tentative budget, recomputes the proposed millage rate, and announces publicly the percentage, if any, by which the recomputed proposed millage rate exceeds the rolled‐back rate.  If the millage rate tentatively adopted exceeds that proposed, each taxpayer within the jurisdiction is notified of the increase by first class mail, at the expense of the Board. 3)Within fifteen days of the meeting adopting the tentative budget, the Board advertises the County's intent to adopt a final budget and millage rate. 4)A public hearing is held by the Board to finalize the budget and adopt a millage rate.  This hearing is held not less than two days and not more than five days after the day that the advertisement is first published. Prior to September 30, the millage levy is adopted by a separate vote.  The millage rate adopted is not allowed to exceed the tentatively adopted millage rate, except as allowed for by emergency provision with strict public notice requirements.   This is followed by the approval and ratification of the final budget. 5)The resolution approved at the final hearing is forwarded to the Property Appraiser, Tax Collector and Florida Department of Revenue, not later than thirty days following the adoption of the Resolution, the Board certifies to the State of Florida, Department of Revenue, Division of Ad Valorem Tax, that it has complied with the provisions of Chapter 200, Florida Statutes. 6)The County Manager approves interdepartmental budget changes within the same fund and division of $50,000 or less that do not impact reserves or recognize revenue.  All other budgetary changes must be approved by the Board of County Commissioners as matter of policy.  The initial adopted budget was amended in accordance with Florida Statutes. 7)Florida State Section 129.07, as amended in 1978, provides that expenditures in excess of total fund budgets are unlawful.  However, because the Board approves all budgetary changes between departments, except those approved by the County Manager, the departmental budget becomes the level of control. Formal budgetary integration is employed as a management control device during the fiscal year for all funds. Budgets have  been legally adopted by the Board for all Board departments except for the agency funds and the Impact Fees Escrow special  revenue fund.  The Property Appraiser and the Tax Collector adopt budgets for their general funds independently of the Board.   The Clerk of Courts operates as a fee officer, and as such, prepares its budget in accordance with Section 218.35, Florida  Statutes.  41 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  The Sheriff and Supervisor of Elections prepare budgets for their general funds, which are submitted to and approved by the  Board.   The Clerk of Court’s budget for court related functions is prepared according to Section 28.36 Florida Statutes and  submitted to the Clerks of Court Operations Corporation for approval by the Legislative Budget Commission.  Budgets are adopted for all governmental departments except as described in the previous paragraph.  These budgets are  adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) except for certain non‐budgeted revenues  and expenditures and mark to market activity on investments.  All unencumbered appropriations lapse at the end of the current  year.  For further information regarding encumbrances, refer to Note 16 on page 78.  Capital project costs are budgeted in the year they are anticipated to be obligated.  In subsequent years, the unused budget is  reappropriated until the project is completed.  Proprietary funds are budgeted on a basis consistent with generally accepted  accounting principles, except that capital related and debt transactions are based upon cash receipts and disbursements.   Estimated beginning fund balances are considered in the budgetary process.  For purposes of the budgetary presentation, certain transactions that have been accounted for in the governmental funds  statements of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances have not been reflected in the budgetary financial  statements.  Specifically, bad debt expense and the net change in fair value of investments are not presented in the budget to  actual statements.   CASH AND INVESTMENTS  Florida Statutes Section 218.415 establishes guidelines for Florida local government investment policies.  The County’s current  investment policy, as amended, was adopted December 9, 2014 by Resolution 2014‐260 and is consistent with the  requirements of that statute.  This investment policy authorized the following investments:    1)U.S. Treasury and Government Guaranteed – U.S. Treasury obligations and obligations the principal and interest of which are backed or guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government;

sponsored enterprise, including but not limited to pass‐throughs, collateralized mortgage obligations and real estate mortgage investment conduits; 6)Non‐Negotiable Certificates of Deposit ‐  Non‐negotiable interest bearing time certificates of deposit or savings

States and doing business in this state, provided that any such deposits are secured by the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act, Chapter 280, Florida Statutes; 42 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016      NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED    7)

or in national banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business in this state, provided that any  such deposits are secured by the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act, Chapter 280, Florida Statutes;    8) Commercial Paper – U.S. dollar denominated commercial paper issued or guaranteed by a domestic corporation,  company, financial institution, trust or other entity, including both unsecured debt and asset backed programs;    9) Repurchase Agreements – Repurchase agreements must be governed by written agreement, counterparty must be a  Federal Reserve Bank, a Primary Dealer or a nationally chartered commercial bank.  Acceptable underlying securities  must be direct obligations of, or that are fully guaranteed by, the United States or any agency of the United States, or  U.S. Agency backed mortgage related securities with an aggregate current market value of at least 102% (or 100% if  the counterparty is a Federal Reserve Bank) of the purchase price plus current accrued price differential;    10) Money Market Funds – Shares in open end and no load money market mutual funds, provided such funds are  registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and operate in accordance with Security and Exchange  Commission Rule 2a‐7;    11) Fixed‐Income Mutual Funds – Shares on open end and no load fixed income mutual funds whose underlying  investments would be permitted for purchase under the investment policy and all its restrictions;    12) Local Government Investment Pools – State, local government or privately sponsored investment pools that are  authorized pursuant to state law;    13) The Florida Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Funds (Florida Prime).      The County maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds.  Investment income is allocated to  individual funds based upon their average daily balance in the cash and investment pool.  Each fund’s individual equity in the  County’s cash and investment pool is considered to be a cash equivalent as the funds can deposit or withdraw cash at any time  without notice or penalty.  The statement of cash flows for the proprietary funds also uses this methodology.      Investments in debt securities are recorded at fair value based upon values obtained from an independent pricing service.   Investments in the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund (Florida Prime) are stated at fair value.  The County categorizes  its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established in Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement  No. 72, “Fair Value Measurements and Application”.    Florida PRIME is considered a qualifying external investment pool that meets all of the necessary criteria to elect to measure  all of the investments at amortized cost. Therefore, the fair value of the County’s position in the pool is the same as the value  of the pool shares. The Florida PRIME investments are not categorized because they are not evidenced by securities that exist  in physical or book entry form. Throughout the year, and as of September 30, 2016, Florida PRIME contained certain floating  and adjustable rate securities. These investments represented 27.6 percent of Florida PRIME’s portfolio at September 30, 2016.    In accordance with Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 79, “Certain External Investment Pools and Pool  Participants”, as a participant in a qualifying external investment pool, the County should disclose the presence of any  limitations or restrictions on withdrawals (such as redemption notice periods, maximum transaction amounts, and the  qualifying external investment pool’s authority to impose liquidity fees or redemption gates) in notes to the financial  statements.       43 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  With regard to redemption gates, Chapter 218.409(8)(a), Florida Statutes, states that "The principal, and any part thereof, of  each account constituting the trust fund is subject to payment at any time from the moneys in the trust fund. However, the  Executive Director may, in good faith, on the occurrence of an event that has a material impact on liquidity or operations of  the trust fund, for 48 hours limit contributions to or withdrawals from the trust fund to ensure that the Board can invest moneys  entrusted to it in exercising its fiduciary responsibility. Such action must be immediately disclosed to all participants, the  Trustees, the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee, the Investment Advisory Council, and the Participant Local Government  Advisory Council. The Trustees shall convene an emergency meeting as soon as practicable from the time the Executive Director  has instituted such measures and review the necessity of those measures. If the Trustees are unable to convene an emergency  meeting before the expiration of the 48‐hour moratorium on contributions and withdrawals, the moratorium may be extended  by the Executive Director until the Trustees are able to meet to review the necessity for the moratorium. If the Trustees agree  with such measures, the Trustees shall vote to continue the measures for up to an additional 15 days. The Trustees must  convene and vote to continue any such measures before the expiration of the time limit set, but in no case may the time limit  set by the Trustees exceed 15 days."   With regard to liquidity fees, Florida Statute 218.409(4) provides authority for the SBA to impose penalties for early withdrawal,  subject to disclosure in the enrollment materials of the amount and purpose of such fees. At present, no such disclosure has  been made.  As of September 30, 2016, there were no redemption fees or maximum transaction amounts, or any other requirements that  serve to limit a participant's daily access to 100 percent of their account value.  RECEIVABLES  All trade receivables are reported net of an allowance for uncollectibles, which is generally a year except for Emergency Medical  Services receivable which uses an estimated uncollectible percentage.  INVENTORIES AND PREPAID COSTS  Inventory is valued at cost using the first‐in, first‐out method.  Inventory in the governmental funds consists of supplies held  for consumption.  The cost is recorded as an expenditure at the time inventory items are consumed rather than when  purchased.  Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid  items.  Inventories and prepaid costs reported within governmental funds are classified as non‐spendable, which indicates that  they do not constitute available resources.  Inventories and prepaid costs in the government‐wide and proprietary fund  financial statements are reported as an expense when consumed.   Inventory held for resale consists of real estate holdings, acquired through various programs, which the County intends to sell.   The value of these properties includes the original purchase price plus the cost of any rehabilitation.  Inventory held for resale  of $9,796,692 is classified as restricted, which indicates that they do not constitute available resources.  CAPITAL ASSETS  Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure (e.g., roads and bridges, water and wastewater  systems, drainage systems and similar items), are reported in the proprietary fund financial statements and in the  governmental or business‐type activities columns in the government‐wide financial statements.  Capital assets are reported at  cost where historical records are available and at estimated fair value in the absence of historical cost records.  Capital  contributions are recorded at their estimated fair value on the date donated.    44 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016      NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED    The County capitalizes expenditures with a cost of $1,000 or more and with a useful life in excess of one year.  Betterments  and major improvements which significantly increase value, change capacity or extend useful lives are also capitalized.   Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to operating expenses.  The cost of capital assets retired or sold, together  with the related accumulated depreciation, is removed from the respective accounts and any gain or loss on disposition is  credited or charged to earnings in the government‐wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements.    Depreciation is calculated using the straight‐line method.  The estimated useful life of the various classes of depreciable capital  assets is as follows:    Capital Asset Class Estimated Useful Life  Buildings 20‐45 years Infrastructure 3‐30 years Improvements other than buildings 4‐45 years Machinery and equipment 3‐20 years   CAPITAL LEASE OBLIGATIONS    In the government‐wide financial statements and proprietary fund financial statements capital lease obligations and the related  cost of assets acquired are reflected in the Statement of Net Position.  For capital lease obligations originating in governmental  funds, an expenditure for the asset and the offsetting other financing source is reflected in the fund financial statements in the  year of inception.    DEFERRED OUTFLOWS/INFLOWS OF RESOURCES    In addition to assets, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources.  This  separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to  a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The deferred  outflows of resources reported in the County’s statement of net position represent changes in actuarial assumptions, the net  difference between projected and actual earnings on investments, changes in the proportion and differences between the  County’s contributions and proportionate share of contributions and the County’s contributions subsequent to the  measurement date, relating to the Florida Retirement System Pension Plan and the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program.   In addition, deferred outflows related to the difference between expected and actual economic experience relating to the  Florida Retirement System Pension were reported.  These amounts will be recognized as increases in pension expense in future  years.  The County also reports the deferred charge on refunding as a deferred outflow in the proprietary and government wide  statements of net position.  A deferred charge results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its  reacquisition price.  This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt.    In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources.  This  separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources, represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a  future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The deferred inflows of  resources reported in the County’s statement of net position represent the difference between expected and actual economic  experience and changes in the proportion and differences between the County’s contributions and proportionate share of  contributions relating to the Florida Retirement System Pension Plan and the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program.  These  amounts will be recognized as reductions in pension expense in future years. The County has also recorded amounts associated  with long term receivables, primarily related to deferred impact fee agreements, as deferred inflows.            45 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016

Pursuant to GASB No. 65, Items Previously Reported as Assets and Liabilities, the gain or loss on defeasance of debt is reported  as a deferred inflow or outflow of resources.  The gain or loss is calculated as the difference between the reacquisition price of  the refunded debt and the net carrying amount at the time of the refunding.  The gain or loss is amortized on a straight line  basis over the shorter of the life of the new debt or the remaining life of the old debt as a component of interest expense.    In the governmental fund financials, bond premiums and issuance costs, including bond insurance costs, are recognized in the  current period.  The face amount of debt is reported as other financing sources.  Premiums received on debt issuances are also  reported as other financing sources.  Issuance costs, including bond insurance costs, whether or not they have been paid from  debt proceeds are reported as debt service expenditures.   INTEREST COST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 1 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – CONTINUED  ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to  make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets  and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting  period.  Actual results may differ from those estimated.  UNEARNED REVENUE  In instances where assets have been received by the County for services to be rendered in future periods, asset balances are  offset by an unearned revenue liability account in the financial statements.  Unearned revenues of the County as of September  30, 2016 are gift certificates issued and prepayments on accounts.   ACCRUED COMPENSATED ABSENCES  The County follows the provisions of GASB Statement No. 16, Accounting for Compensated Absences.  This statement provides  for the measurement of accrued vacation leave and other compensated absences using the pay or salary rates in effect at the  balance sheet date.  It also requires additional amounts to be accrued for certain salary related payments associated with the  payment of compensated absences.  It is the Board of County Commissioners’ policy to allow employees of record on August 2, 1996 a sick leave payment upon  termination for any service period earned prior to August 2, 1996 and a payout of unused vacation up to 440 hours for all  employees.  The Sheriff’s policy allows for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, not to exceed  1,000 hours, and up to 500 hours of unused vacation time.  Both the Clerk of the Circuit Court and Comptroller’s and Tax  Collector’s policies allow for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, and up to 240 hours of  unused vacation hours.  The Property Appraiser’s policy allows for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years  of service, not to exceed 1,040 hours, and up to 200 hours of unused vacation hours.  The Supervisor of Election’s policy allows  for a percentage of unused sick leave payout based upon years of service, and up to 440 hours of unused vacation.  Payments for compensated absences are made by the respective fund.  Accrued compensated absences are recorded as  liabilities in the government‐wide financial statements and the proprietary fund financials. A liability is reported in  governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations or retirements, and are  considered due and payable as of year end.  PENSIONS  In the government‐wide and proprietary funds statements of net position, liabilities are recognized for the County’s  proportionate share of each pension plan’s net pension liability. For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred  outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Florida Retirement  System (FRS) defined benefit plan and the Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) and additions to/deductions from FRS’s and HIS’s  fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the FRS and HIS plans. For this purpose,  plan contributions are recognized as of employer payroll paid dates and benefit payments and refunds of employee  contributions are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair  value.   47 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016      NOTE 2 – CASH AND INVESTMENTS     The County maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds.  Each fund’s portion of this pool is  displayed on the balance sheet under the heading of Cash and Investments.  Investment income is allocated monthly to

SEPTEMBER 30, 2016      NOTE 2 – CASH AND INVESTMENTS – CONTINUED    CREDIT RISK    Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations.  The County’s  investment policy limits credit risk by restricting authorized investments to the Florida Local Government Surplus Trust Fund  (Florida PRIME), direct obligations of, or obligations backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government, U.S.  government sponsored Corporation/Instrumentalities (except for Student Loan Marketing Association), certificates of deposit  collateralized by U.S. Government Securities or Agencies, fixed income mutual funds collateralized by U.S. Government  Securities or Agencies, domestic bankers’ acceptances rated “AA” or higher, prime commercial paper rated “A‐1” and “P‐1”,  tax‐exempt obligations rated “AA” or higher and issued by state or local governments, NOW accounts fully collateralized in  accordance with Chapter 280, Florida Statutes and qualifying repurchase agreements.  The policy requires that each firm  involved in a repurchase agreement must execute the County’s master repurchase agreement, a third party custodian must  hold collateral for all repurchase agreements with a term of more than one day and the market value of the collateral shall  maintain a minimum price of 101 percent on U.S. Government securities and 104 percent on Agencies and Instrumentalities  with a term over five (5) years, and must be marked to market at least weekly.  Florida PRIME is an investment pool  administered by the State Board of Administration (SBA), under the regulatory oversight of the State of Florida.   At September  30, 2016, the Sheriff had $746,297 invested in the State Board of Administration’s Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund  Investment Pool.  All of these funds are held in the Florida PRIME pool.  Florida PRIME is rated “AAAm” by Standard & Poor’s  Ratings Services.       All cash deposits are held in qualified public depositories pursuant to Florida Statutes Chapter 280, "Florida Security for Public  Deposits Act".  Under the Act, all qualified public depositories are required to pledge eligible collateral having a market value  equal to or greater than the average daily or monthly balance of all public deposits, multiplied by the depository's collateral  pledging level.  The pledging level may range from 25% to 200% depending upon the depository's financial condition.  Any  losses to public deposits are covered by applicable deposit insurance, sale of securities pledged as collateral, and if necessary,  assessments against other qualified public depositories of the same type as the depository in default.    CUSTODIAL CREDIT RISK    Custodial credit risk for deposits is the risk that, in the event of the failure of a depository financial institution, a government  will not be able to recover deposits or will not be able to recover collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside  party.   At September 30, 2016, the County had demand deposits of $195,836,371.  All balances in excess of the Federal  Depository Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance for these demand deposits are fully collateralized by the multiple financial  institutions’ collateral pool in accordance with Florida Statutes Section 280.  The discretely presented component unit demand  deposits of $292,288 are secured by the FDIC as individual entity balances do not exceed $250,000.  Custodial credit risk for  investments is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty to a transaction, a government will not be able to  recover the value of the investment or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party.  The County’s  investment policy requires execution of a third‐party custodial safekeeping agreement for purchased securities and collateral,  and requires that securities be held in the County’s name.    INTEREST RATE RISK    Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment.  One of  the primary objectives of the investment policy is to match investment cash flow and maturity with known cash needs and  anticipated cash flow requirements.  The County limits exposure to interest rate risk by structuring the portfolio to meet daily  cash flow demands.   Investments shall have an average maturity of not more than five years, except for mortgage securities.  Mortgage securities will not be used to match liabilities that are reasonably definable as to amount and disbursement date and  are used to invest funds associated with reserves or liabilities that are not associated with a specifically identified cash flow  schedule.         49 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA

framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value.  The  hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1  measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).  The three levels of the fair value  hierarchy under GASB Statement No. 72 are described as follows:    Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active  markets that the County has the ability to access.    Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include:  Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;  Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;  Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability;  Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.    Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.   Unobservable inputs, if any, reflect the County’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in  pricing the asset or liability (including assumptions about risk).  Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best  information available in the circumstances and may include the County’s own data.     The County has the following recurring fair value measurements as of September 30, 2016:    US Treasury Notes classified as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy were valued using prices quoted in active markets for  those securities.  As of September 30, 2016, the fair value of the County’s US Treasury Notes was $59,015,312.    US Agency obligations classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy were valued using quoted prices for similar assets in  active markets for those securities.  As of September 30, 2016, the fair value of the County’s US Agency obligations was  $496,286,034.  50 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016      NOTE 6 – LONG‐TERM DEBT – CONTINUED    RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS    According to County resolutions authorizing the issuance of the Series 2010, 2010B, 2011 and 2013 Special Obligation  Refunding Revenue Bonds, the County has covenanted, subject to certain restrictions and limitations, to appropriate in its  annual budget, by amendment if necessary, from non‐ad valorem revenues amounts sufficient to pay principal and interest on  the combined Special Obligation Bonds.    According to County resolutions authorizing the issuance of the Series 2012 and 2014 Gas Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, the  issues are payable from and secured by liens on gas tax revenues.      Bayshore Gateway Community Redevelopment Agency (Agency) tax increment revenues are pledged for the repayment of the  Agency’s Series 2013 taxable note.  The Agency has additionally covenanted to budget and appropriate from all legally available  non‐ad valorem revenues of the Agency to pay the Series 2013 note to the extent the tax increment revenues are insufficient.    The Series 2013 note does not constitute an indebtedness of the County and is payable solely from the security provided by  the Agency.  The Agency is required to have a debt service reserve balance of $800,000 as of the end of fiscal year 2016.  The  Agency was in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2016.    The County Water and Sewer District (District) has pledged future water and sewer customer revenues, net of certain operating  expenses, to repay $72,832,398 in Series 2013, 2015 and 2016 revenue bonds.  Proceeds from the bonds were used for the  refinancing of bonds issued for rehabilitation or expansion of the District’s water and sewer systems.  Principal and interest are  payable through July 1, 2036, solely from the net revenues and certain other fees and charges derived from operation of the  County's Water and Sewer District (District).  The pledge of net revenues by the District from the operation of the system does  not constitute a lien upon the system or any other property of the County.  The resolutions authorizing the revenue bonds  include an obligation for the District to fix, establish and maintain such rates and collect such fees so as to provide in each year  net revenues, as defined in the bond resolutions,  which together with system development fees (impact fees) and special  assessment proceeds (if applicable) received shall be at least 125% of the annual debt service requirements for the bonds;  provided, however, that net revenues in each fiscal year shall be adequate to pay at least 100% of the annual debt service on  the bonds.  Fiscal year 2016 pledged revenues, net of operating expenses, were $40,982,058 and $54,625,732 when system  development fees were included.  Principal and interest paid on the bonds during fiscal year 2016 totaled $6,827,648, providing  coverage of 600% and 800%, respectively.  In addition, bond covenants require a renewal and replacement amount equal to  $300,000 in the District funds. The District was in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2016.    The District has several State Revolving Fund loans outstanding with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.   These loans are collateralized by a lien on pledged revenues consisting of net revenues from the operations of the County  Water and Sewer System and system development fees.  The lien is subordinate in all respects to the liens placed upon pledged  revenues established by bonded indebtedness.  The District must maintain rates and charges for services which together with  system development fees are sufficient to pay 115% to 125%, depending upon the individual loan agreement, of the annual  debt service requirements on the loans, as well as satisfy the coverage requirements of all senior debt obligations.  The District’s  State Revolving Fund loans were in compliance with these covenants for the year ended September 30, 2016.    LEGAL DEBT MARGIN

The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan  for participating public employees.  The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the  defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for  FRS members effective July 1, 2002.  This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan.  Chapter  112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost‐sharing multiple‐employer defined  benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State‐administered retirement system in paying the costs of health  insurance.  Essentially all regular employees of the County are eligible to enroll as members of the State‐administered FRS.  Provisions  relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter  238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions and benefits  are defined and described in detail.  Such provisions may be amended at any time by the Florida Legislature.  The FRS is a single  retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of  the two cost sharing, multiple employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs.  A comprehensive annual  financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and  other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ web site  (www.dms.myflorida.com).  The County’s pension expense totaled $37,906,261 for both the FRS Pension Plan and HIS Plan for the year ended September  30, 2016.  61 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost‐sharing multiple‐employer defined benefit pension plan, with  a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees.  The general classes of membership are as follows:  Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.  Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government.  Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions.  Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for  this class.  Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS  Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service.  All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible  for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk  who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service.  All members enrolled in the  FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years  of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or  at any age after 30 years of service.  Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service  toward creditable service.  The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for  each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date.  The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death  benefits, and annual cost‐of‐living adjustments to eligible participants.   DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the  FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer.  An  employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain  instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months.  During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly  benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest.  The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP  participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits.  BENEFITS PROVIDED   Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service  credit.  Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation.  For members initially  enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members  initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings.   The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on  the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in‐line‐of‐ duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits.   62

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report.  As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to  participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan.  County employees participating in DROP are not  eligible to participate in the Investment Plan.  Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to  individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment  funds.  Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by  the Florida Legislature.  The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based  on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan.  Contributions  are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among  various approved investment choices.  Costs of administering the plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are  funded through an employer contribution of .04% of payroll from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016 and .06% of payroll from July 1,  2016 to June 30, 2017 in addition to forfeited benefits of plan members.  The County’s Investment Plan pension expense totaled  $3,589,697 for the year ended September 30, 2016.    For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service  for employer contributions and investment earnings.  If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned  under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS  Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the  earnings on the funds.  Non‐vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years.  If the employee  returns to FRS‐covered employment within the 5‐year period, the employee will regain control over their account.  If the  employee does not return within the 5‐year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance.  For the fiscal  year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management  believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the County.  After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure  a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump‐sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution,  or any combination of these options.  Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to  the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS  Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income.  68 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016

NOTE 12 – RISK MANAGEMENT  The County is exposed to various risks of loss related to tort; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions;  injuries to employees and natural disasters.  A self‐insurance internal service fund is maintained by the County to administer  insurance activities relating to workers' compensation, health and property and casualty, which covers general, property, auto,  public official and crime liabilities.  The County self‐insurance program covers operations of the Board and the constitutional  officers, except for the Sheriff.  Under these programs, the self‐insurance fund provides coverage up to a maximum amount for  each claim.  The County purchases commercial insurance for claims in excess of coverage provided by the self‐insurance fund  and for all other covered risks of loss.    Claim Type County’s Coverage Excess Carrier’s Coverage  Property and casualty claims $50,000 ‐$500,000  (5% Named Storm)  $50,000 ‐$75,000,000   Auto liability claims $300,000 $300,000 ‐ $5,000,000

Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the past three years.  All divisions of  the County, excluding the Sheriff, participate in this program.  Charges to operating departments are based upon amounts  believed by management to meet the required annual payouts during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating  costs of the programs.  For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 the operating departments were charged $39,516,689  for workers' compensation, health and property and casualty self‐insurance programs.  The claims loss reserve for workers' compensation, health and property and casualty of $5,523,170 reported at September 30,  2016 was calculated by third party actuaries based upon GASB Statement 30, Risk Financing Omnibus, which requires that a  liability for claims be reported when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably  estimated.  The estimated liabilities for unpaid losses related to workers' compensation and property and casualty were  discounted at 3.5%.  It should be noted that the discount rate is an estimate based on the expected rate of return over extended  periods.  The estimated liabilities for unpaid losses related to health were not discounted as their turnover period is much  shorter.  Claims loss reserves of $3,904,371 are recorded as current liabilities.   The Sheriff participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff's Self‐Insurance Fund for its professional liability insurance. The fund is  managed by representatives of the participating Sheriff offices and provides professional liability insurance to participating  Sheriff agencies.  The Florida Sheriff's Self‐Insurance Fund provides liability insurance coverage subject to the following  limitations: $5,000,000 for any one incident or occurrence and $10,000,000 for an annual aggregate per member.  The Sheriff also participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff's Self‐Insurance Fund program for workers' compensation  coverage.  The Florida Sheriff's Association Workers' Compensation Insurance Trust (FSAWIT) is a limited self‐insurance fund  providing coverage for the first $500,000 of every claim.  Re‐insurance is provided through a third party insurer for all claims  exceeding $500,000 up to $10,000,000.   Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the past three years.  Premiums charged to participating Sheriffs are based upon amounts believed by Fund management to meet the estimated  annual payouts during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating costs of the program.  All liabilities associated with  these self‐insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Self‐Insurance Fund.   The Sheriff cannot be additionally assessed for claims paid by the program.  72 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    NOTE 12 – RISK MANAGEMENT – CONTINUED  The Sheriff has also established a self‐funded employee health plan.  An internal service fund is used to account for the activities  of the plan.  Excess coverage has been purchased which provides specific claim excess coverage for any one incident exceeding  $200,000.  Payments to the internal service fund are based on actuarial estimates of amounts needed to pay prior year and  current year claims including claims incurred but not yet reported.  The claims loss reserve for health of $2,379,000 reported at September 30, 2016 was calculated by third party actuaries based  upon GASB Statement 30, Risk Financing Omnibus, which requires that a liability for claims be reported when it is probable that  a loss has been incurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated.  The entire Sheriff’s health claim loss reserve  is recorded as a current liability.

to continue in the County’s health insurance plan at the same group rate as for active employees.  The plan does not issue a  separate financial report.   The Board of County Commissioners and the Tax Collector administer an additional single‐employer defined benefit plan (OPEB  Plan) and can amend the benefit provisions.  The Board offers an OPEB Plan that subsidizes the cost of health care for its retirees  who have at least 60% of eligible accrued sick leave remaining at the time of retirement and have completed 15 years of

completed 30 years of service under the Florida Retirement System (FRS) and be eligible to receive an FRS benefit with no break  in time.  Such employees are eligible to receive a 50% to 100% subsidy toward the cost of coverage under the active plan.  A  subsidy is currently provided to six retirees.  The Tax Collector offers an OPEB plan that subsidizes 100% the cost of health care  for employees with 10 years of service, between the ages of 54 and 64 and who exchange 800 hours of sick leave at retirement.   73 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA  NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

covered by the OPEB Plan) was $125.7 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 6%.    Actuarial Methods and Assumptions ‐ Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported  amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future.  Examples include assumptions  about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend.  Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the  plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared  with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.      Calculations for financial reporting purposes are based on the benefits provided under terms of the plan as understood by the  employer and the plan members in effect at the time of each valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the  employer and plan members to that point. The projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly  incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the employer  and plan members in the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long‐term perspective. Consistent with that perspective,  actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short‐term volatility in  actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets.

of retirees receive the subsidy.  Additionally, in accordance with Florida Statute 112.0801, Sheriff’s employees who retire and  immediately begin receiving benefits from the FRS have th e option of paying premiums to continue in the Sheriff’s health  insurance plan at the same group rate as for active employees.  The plan does not issue a separate financial report.  At October 1, 2016, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, Sheriff plan participation consisted of:  OPEB plan participants 1,105  Retirees receiving benefits 106   Funding Policy ‐ The Sheriff has the authority to establish and amend funding policy. For the year ended September 30, 2016,  the Sheriff contributed $818,021 to the OPEB Plan.  No trust or agency fund has been established for the plan.   Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation ‐ The annual cost of the Sheriff’s OPEB Plan is calculated based on the Annual  Required Contribution (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement No. 45.  The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year and  amortize any unfunded actuarial liability over a period not to exceed 30 years. The following table shows the components of  the Sheriff’s annual OPEB Plan cost for the year, the amount actually contributed, and the changes in the net OPEB Plan  obligation.   2016 2015 2014

Funded Status and Funding Progress ‐ As of September 30, 2015, the OPEB Plan was 0.0% funded, the actuarial accrued liability  for benefits was $15,133,114, and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in a UAAL of $15,133,114.  As of September  30, 2016, the OPEB Plan was 0.0% funded, the actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $15,684,350, and the actuarial value  of assets was $0, resulting in a UAAL of $15,684,350.  The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the  OPEB Plan) was $122.9 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 12.8%.  Actuarial Methods and Assumptions ‐ Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported  amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future.  Examples include assumptions  about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend.  Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the  plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared  with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future.  Calculations for financial reporting purposes are based on the benefits provided under terms of the plan as understood by the  employer and the plan members in effect at the time of each valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the  employer and plan members to that point. The projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly  incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the employer  and plan members in the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long‐term perspective. Consistent with that perspective,  actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short‐term volatility in  actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets.   The actuarial methods and assumptions are:   Actuarial cost method Projected Unit Credit Actuarial Cost  Amortization method Level Dollar Amount Amortization period 30 years, Closed Investment rate of return 3% Discount rate 3% Inflation rate 3% Healthcare cost trend rate 8% for the 2017 fiscal year grading to an  ultimate rate of 5% for the 2023 fiscal year  NOTE 14 – LANDFILL LIABILITY  On May 1, 1995 the County entered into a landfill operating agreement with a third party for the privatization of the County's  landfill operations.  Under the contract, the third party is responsible for the daily operations, capital improvements, closure,  postclosure and financial assurance requirements of the active cells within the Naples and Immokalee landfill sites.  Collier  County is responsible for the postclosure costs relating to portions of the Naples and Immokalee landfill sites.  None of the cells  that Collier County is responsible for has accepted waste since December 1989. The County is also responsible for staffing and  operating the scale house at each site.  In accordance with U.S. Environmental Protection Agency rule Solid Waste Disposal and Facility Criteria and GASB Statement  18, Accounting for Municipal Solid Waste Landfill Closure and Postclosure Care Costs, a liability has been established  representing amounts estimated to be spent on postclosure relating to cells for which Collier County is responsible.  The  County’s estimated liability in connection with the landfills is included in the proprietary funds statement of net position.  The  landfill liability will be reassessed on an annual basis, and any increase due to inflation, changes in technology or additional  postclosure care requirements will be recorded as a current cost.

The County is involved as defendant or plaintiff in certain litigation and claims arising in the ordinary course of operations. In  the opinion of County legal counsel, the range of potential recoveries or liabilities, other than as disclosed here, will not  materially affect the financial position of the County.   The Board has been named as a defendant in three related lawsuits, styled Francis Hussey, et al v. Collier County, Case No. 08‐ 6933‐CA; Board of County Commissioners v. Francis D. Hussey, et al., Case No. 08‐6988‐CA consolidated with 08‐6933‐CA; and  Sean Hussey, et al. v. Collier County, et al., Case No. 08‐7025‐CA.  On September 11, 2008, the Plaintiffs, Francis D. Hussey, Jr.  and Mary P. Hussey, husband and wife, and Winchester Lakes Corporation, a Florida corporation, filed an inverse condemnation  suit seeking monetary damages from Collier County, Florida, the Honorable Charlie Crist, the Governor of the State of Florida  and the Florida Department of Community Affairs.  The Husseys contend that the designation of certain real property owned  by them through a growth management plan amendment adopted in 2002 had the effect of precluding mining activities on  their property, thereby resulting in a substantial diminution in value of the real estate, which the Plaintiffs contend to be  compensable under Florida law. The complaint alleges current damage claims in the amount of $91,500,000.  The Plaintiffs  have also presented a claim for "inverse condemnation based on a regulatory taking of plaintiffs' property," in an amount not  specified in the complaint.   The Wildlife Federation and Collier County Audubon Society were granted leave to intervene in the  suit by the Court on April 29, 2009.  On July 9, 2009, the Florida Wildlife Federation and Collier County Audubon Society served  upon defendants Francis and Mary Hussey a Notice of Intent to Sue over violations of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16  U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)    On February 1, 2017, the Second District Court of Appeals affirmed an Order (without issuing a written opinion) of the Collier  County Circuit Court approving the County’s Settlement Agreement with the Husseys, et al.  The Circuit Court’s order had been  appealed by the Florida Wildlife Federation, Inc. and the Collier County Audubon Society, Inc., who had intervened in the  lawsuit. The time for any party to file an appeal has passed and as such this case is closed.   Briefly stated, the Settlement Agreement provides as follows:  1)The County will re‐designate 578 acres of the Hussey parcel as Receiving Lands in exchange for the re‐ designation as Sending Lands of the 578 acres of Rural Fringe Receiving Lands owned by the S.R. 846 Land Trust (the “846 land”).  This exchange is a net swap.  It leaves the identical acreage within the Rural Fringe with a Sending Designation and identical acreage with a Receiving Designation.  Collier County will amend the Future Land Use Map designation of these 578 acres accordingly. 2)Within 180 days, Husseys must deed to the County 180 feet of right‐of‐way for the future Wilson Boulevard Extension (Blackburn Road) along the southern property line of the HHH Ranch.  The Owner will receive road impact fee credits for this dedication. 3)The HHH Ranch lands shall be subject to the Preservation and Native Vegetation Retention Standards within CCMA Policies based upon the existing native vegetation as depicted by a FLUCCS Map, which map shall be prepared by the Husseys, subject to County approval.  The map shall be prepared and presented for review within 180 days. No development rights were conferred by this Agreement, and the County was not required to make any payment in the form  of damages or otherwise to the Plaintiffs.  77 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA

AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Collier County, Florida (County), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the County’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated March 22, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the County's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. 171 Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida   Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the County's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

The County’s major federal programs and state projects are identified in the summary of auditors’ results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Management’s Responsibility Management is responsible for compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants applicable to its federal programs and state projects. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the County’s major federal programs and state projects based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General Local Governmental Entity Audits. Those standards, the Uniform Guidance, and Chapter 10.550, require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program or state project occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the County’s compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program and state project. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the County’s compliance. 173 Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida   Opinion on Each Major Federal Program and State Project In our opinion, the County complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs and state projects for the year ended September 30, 2016. Other Matters The results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance, which are required to be reported in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and which are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2016-001 and 2016-002. Our opinion on each major federal program and state project is not modified with respect to these matters. The County’s responses to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and corrective action plan. The County’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses. Report on Internal Control Over Compliance Management of the County is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered the County’s internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program or state project to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program and major state project and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control over compliance. A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program or state project on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program of state project will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program and state project that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. 174 Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida   Report on Internal Control Over Compliance (Continued) Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and, therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, we identified certain deficiencies in internal control over compliance, as described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs as items 2016-001 and 2016-002 that we consider to be significant deficiencies. The County’s responses to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs and corrective action plan. The County’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses. The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the result of that testing based on the requirements of the Uniform Guidance and Chapter 10.550. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

NOTES TO THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL  AWARDS AND STATE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE  YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2016    1. Basis of Presentation  The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Projects (the Schedule)  includes the Federal and State grant activity for Collier County, Florida (the County) and is presented on  the modified accrual basis of accounting for expenditures accounted for in the governmental funds and  the accrual basis of accounting for expenditures in proprietary funds.  Under the modified accrual basis,  revenue is recognized if it is both measurable and available for use during the fiscal year and  expenditures are recognized in the period liabilities are incurred, if measurable.  Under the accrual basis,  expenditures are recognized in the period liabilities are incurred.    The information in the schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of  Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit  Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance), and Section 215.97, Florida Statutes.  Therefore,  some amounts presented in the Schedule may differ from amounts presented, or used in the  preparation of, the basic financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016.  2. Contingency  The grant revenue amounts received are subject to audit and adjustment.  If any expenditures or  expenses are disallowed by the grantor agencies as a result of such an audit, any claim for  reimbursement to the grantor agencies would become a liability of the County.    3. Negative Figures on the Schedule of Expenditures  Negative expenditures reported in the Schedules of Expenditures of Federal Awards and State Financial  Assistance are a result of corrections which reduced expenditures in one grant and increased  expenditures in another grant or funding source.   Although the current expenditures on a grant may be  negative, the total of all expenditures on the grant is expected to be positive over its total period of  performance.    4. Indirect Cost Rate  The County has not elected to use the 10 percent de minimus cost rate allowed under the Uniform  Guidance.  181 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Federal Awards

Part III – Findings and Questioned Costs – Major Federal Programs 2016-001 Eligibility Federal Program Department of Health and Human Services Passed through the Florida Department of Elder Affairs – Area Agency on Aging for Southwest Florida, Inc. CFDA 93.044, 93.045, 93.053 Aging Cluster Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Criteria Only individuals whom have applied for benefits using the proper standardized forms and been properly reviewed, approved and setup in the Client Information and Registration Tracking System (CIRTS) can be provided with meals by the Aging Cluster. Condition Five individuals were served a total of 41 meals prior to being enrolled in the CIRTS system. Context The auditor selected 60 individuals to test and noted the condition above. Sample was a statistically valid sample. Questioned Costs None Cause Unallowable costs were incurred due to the individuals not being properly determined to be eligible. Effect Lack of controls over these expenditures could result in additional unallowable costs being charged to the grant. Repeat Finding Yes. Prior year finding 2015-005. 184 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Federal Awards Programs and State Financial Assistance Projects Year Ended September 30, 2016   Part III – Findings and Questioned Costs – Major Federal Programs (Continued) Recommendation We recommend that the County implement policies and procedures to ensure that all individuals receiving benefits have completed the required applications and have properly been determined to be eligible. Views of Responsible Officials and Corrective Action Plan There is no disagreement with the audit finding. 2016-002 Program Income and Reporting Federal Program Department of Housing and Urban Development CFDA 14.239 Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME) Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Other Matters Criteria In accordance with 24 CFR 92.502 (a) the participating jurisdiction must report all program income in HUD's computerized disbursement and information system. Condition Based on our testing of program income in fiscal year 2016, recapture payments from the State of Florida SHIP program were incorrectly recorded and reported as HOME program income. Although eligible for HOME match, these SHIP recapture payments had not been designated as HOME match in the HOME match log that was reported in the annual report and in IDIS. Context Auditors randomly selected two of the four HOME program receipts for testing. Sample was a statistically valid sample. In fiscal year 2016, the only program income received by the HOME program was SHIP recaptured payments designated as HOME match in the year of disbursement. Auditor requested HOME match log to ensure proper recording of recaptured funds. The receipts selected for testing were not previously designated as HOME match. Additionally, per management's review of the remaining two receipts there was one additional error identified. Questioned Costs None 185 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs Federal Awards Programs and State Financial Assistance Projects Year Ended September 30, 2016   Part III – Findings and Questioned Costs – Major Federal Programs (Continued) Cause During the receipting process, the incorrect file was accessed when determining the proper program for coding. The County did not have the proper review procedure in place to detect improper codings. Effect The fiscal year 2016 HOME program income was incorrectly reported in IDIS, the annual report and reimbursement requests were understated by the amount of improperly coded program income. Repeat Finding No Recommendation We recommend that the County enhance its review procedures to ensure that program income is recorded to the appropriate program. Additionally, the County should ensure that program income is properly reported in the annual report. Management’s Response There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Part IV – Findings and Questioned Costs – Major State Projects Our audit did not disclose any matters required to be reported in accordance with Rule 10.554(1)(l)4, Rules of the Florida Auditor General. 186 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Summary Schedule of Prior Audit Findings Year Ended September 30, 2016   Finding 2015-001 Corrective action was taken.

Audit period: FY 2016 The findings from the schedule of findings and questioned costs are discussed below. The findings are numbered consistently with the numbers assigned in the schedule. FINDINGS—FEDERAL AWARD PROGRAMS AUDITS DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES 2016-001 Aging Cluster – CFDA No. 93.044, 93.045, 93.053 Recommendation: That the County implements policies and procedures to ensure that all individuals receiving benefits have completed the required applications and have properly been determined to be eligible. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: Eligibility was determined after the required timeframe for noncompliant test selections and occurred prior to implementation of the corrective actions on June 6, 2016. The corrective actions remain in place to ensure clients are registered within the required timeframe. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Therese Stanley, Grants Compliance Manager Planned completion date for corrective action plan: June 6, 2016 DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN DEVELOPMENT 2016-002 Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME) – CFDA No. 14.239 Recommendation: That the County enhances its review procedures to ensure that program income is recorded to the appropriate program. Additionally, the County should ensure that program income is properly reported in the annual report. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: A single document (the cumulative HOME Match Log) will track all HOME program matches inclusive of SHIP loans. Use of a single log will support HOME program income postings as accurate. The HOME Match Log currently serves as support to the annual HOME Match Report and as such will ensure SHIP loans are recorded timely on the report. 188 COLLIER COUNTY, FLORIDA Corrective Action Plan Year Ended September 30, 2016   The secondary (SHIP/HOME Match) log used to identify both actual and future SHIP loan use as HOME match has been eliminated. Should HOME program match needs merit use of additional SHIP loans as a source, current year SHIP loans will be identified and recorded on the HOME Match Log without delay. The 2016 HOME Match report has been revised and submitted to HUD to include the missing SHIP loan values. The HOME (SHIP) Revenue (Intake) Form will be enhanced to document review of the HOME Match Log in the determination of SHIP loan pay backs as HOME program income. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Therese Stanley, Grants Compliance Manager Planned completion date for corrective action plan: March 31, 2017 If the Department of Transportation has questions regarding this plan, please call Therese Stanley at 239-252-2959. 189 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK  190 CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com    MANAGEMENT LETTER Honorable Board of County Commissioners Collier County, Florida We have audited the financial statements of Collier County, Florida (County) as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, and have issued our report thereon dated March 22, 2017.

The Constitution of the State of Florida and the Florida Statutes set no legal debt limit at the local level. The governmental debt ratio is the ratio of debt service requirements to total bondable revenues, as defined by Collier County’s Debt Policy. It should be noted that while ad valorem taxes are bondable for purposes of the governmental debt ratio calculation, they may only be pledged pursuant to voter referendum. The governmental debt ratio decreased from 7.6%, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2015, to 7.0% for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016. The decrease in the debt ratio for FY-2016 is primarily the result of an 8.8% increase in overall bondable revenues. Ad valorem tax collection increased by 8.5% over FY-2015 due to a corresponding increase in taxable property values. In addition, impact fee collections related to governmental activities (non-enterprise activity) increased by 40.0% and Half-Cent Sales Tax collections were 5.4% greater than FY-2015. Recent debt restructurings coupled with the growth of general governmental revenues has produced several consecutive years of decreases in the general governmental debt ratio, as shown in the chart below:  0.00% 2.00% 4.00% 6.00% 8.00% 10.00% 12.00% 14.00% FY‐2011 FY‐2012 FY‐2013 FY‐2014 FY‐2015 FY‐2016 Annual Governmental Debt Ratio Maximum Allowable Governmental Debt Ratio 3 Governmental Debt Ratings Table: Current Ratings (as of 1/11/2017) Fitch Moody’s Standard & Poor’s Gas Tax Revenue Bonds AA- A2 A Special Obligation Bonds AA Aa2 AA+ A rating of AA is an indication by Fitch Ratings of an investment grade instrument, but one which carries a slightly higher risk than a AAA rated bond. Fitch also uses intermediate +/- modifiers for each AA category. A rating of Aa is an indication by Moody’s Investors Service of a high quality investment grade instrument with very low credit risk, but “their susceptibility to long-term risks appears somewhat greater” than a Aaa rated bond. A rating of A is an indication by Moody’s of an investment grade instrument with low credit risk but the bond has elements present that suggest a higher susceptibility to impairment over the long term than a Aa investment. Moody’s uses intermediate modifiers of 1 (higher) to 3 (lower) within the Aa and A ranges. A rating of AA is an indication by Standard and Poor’s of an investment grade instrument issued by a “quality borrower” but with slightly more risk than a AAA grade investment. A rating of A is an indication by Standard and Poor’s of an investment grade instrument but one more susceptible to adverse changes in circumstances and economic conditions than AAA or AA instruments. Standard and Poor’s also uses intermediate +/- modifiers for each category. The County’s Special Obligation Revenue Bonds are secured by a covenant to appropriate in the annual budget, by amendment, if necessary, from Non-Ad Valorem Revenues amounts sufficient pay debt service on the combined Special Obligation Bonds. The combined gas tax revenues are pledged for the payment of all the Gas Tax Revenue Bonds. Fiscal year 2016 gas tax revenues covered the current year debt service payments on all outstanding Gas Tax Revenue Bonds at 151%. Collier County Enterprise Debt: Currently, the Collier County Water and Sewer District (District) is the only County enterprise activity with bonded debt outstanding. The Collier County Debt Policy does not set a maximum allowable enterprise debt ratio, but coverage requirements related to the District’s debt are set by bond covenants. Net revenues, defined as operating revenues plus non-operating revenues less operating expenses, excluding depreciation, must cover bonded debt service at 100%. Total pledged funds, defined as net revenues plus impact fees and special assessments, if applicable, must cover bonded debt at 125%. Net revenue coverage on bonded debt was 600% and total pledged funds coverage on bonded debt was 800% for FY-2016, up from 450% and 580%, respectively, for FY- 2015. Bonded debt coverages increased primarily due to a 6.6% increase in water and sewer sales revenues and a 27.9% decrease in annual bonded debt service. The District’s calculated coverage on subordinated debt, all in the form of State Revolving Fund Loans, increased from 405% to 415%, 4 also as a result of the factors mentioned above. The total pledged funds coverage required by the subordinated loan agreements varies between 115% and 125%, depending upon the individual loan agreement. In May of 2016, the Collier County Water and Sewer District issued the Series 2016A Water and Sewer Refunding Revenue Bonds in the amount of $48,105,000 for the purpose of refunding the District’s remaining Series 2006 Revenue Bonds. The Series 2016 bond proceeds, together with other available monies, were placed in escrow. The Series 2016 Water and Sewer Refunding Revenue Bonds have a fixed interest rate of 5.0%. The current refunding achieved a net present value savings of 18.0% on the refunded bonds. Enterprise Debt Ratings Table: Current Ratings (as of 1/11/2017) Fitch Moody’s Standard & Poor’s* Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds AAA Aa1 - *- Standard & Poor’s does not currently rate County Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds. In December of 2015, Fitch Ratings affirmed the District’s Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds at AAA. A rating of AAA is an indication by Fitch Ratings of an investment grade instrument with very little credit risk. In April of 2016, Moody’s Investors Service upgraded the District’s Water and Sewer Revenue Bonds to Aa1 from Aa2. A rating of Aa is an indication by Moody’s Investors Service of a high quality investment grade instrument, but “their susceptibility to long-term risks appears somewhat greater” than a Aaa rated bond. Moody’s uses intermediate modifiers of 1 (higher) to 3 (lower) within the Aa and A ranges. A rating of Aa1 is the highest rating within the Aa range. Water, wastewater and irrigation quality water user rates and miscellaneous revenues are used to recover system operating, maintenance and capital costs as well as pay debt service. In September of 2014 the District’s governing board approved phased rate increases. The District’s water and sewer user rates increased by 9.0%, effective 10/01/2014 with subsequent increases of 5.0% effective 10/01/2015 and 10/01/2016. Over recent years the District has operated on a pay as you go basis, avoided borrowing and maintained financial stability. The District’s continuing focus is the optimization of resources and a risk based prioritization of capital projects. 5 Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Financial Statements and Supplemental Reports Year Ended September 30, 2016 Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Financial Statements and Other Reports Year Ended September 30, 2016 Contents Independent Auditors’ Report ..........................................................................................................1  Financial Statements  Balance Sheet – Governmental Funds ........................................................................................4  Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Governmental Funds ................................................................................................................5  Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Budget and Actual – General Fund .............................................................................................................6  Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Budget and Actual – Court Services Fund ..................................................................................................7  Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balance – Budget and Actual – Other Special Revenue Fund .....................................................................................8  Statement of Fiduciary Net Position – Agency Fund..................................................................9  Notes to Financial Statements ...................................................................................................10  Supplementary Information  Combining Statements of Fiduciary Net Position – All Agency Funds ...................................26  Other Reports  Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards ..........................................27  Management Letter ...................................................................................................................29  Independent Accountants’ Report .............................................................................................31  CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com   1 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Clerk’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court 2 Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information for the Clerk as of September 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, budgetary comparisons thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Clerk. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2016, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Clerk’s financial statements. The combining statement, as listed in the table of contents, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. The combining statement is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining statement is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court 3 Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated January 18, 2017 on our consideration of the Clerk’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters included under the heading Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Clerk’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Reporting Entity The Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. The Clerk’s Budget is presented pursuant to Chapter 218, Florida Statutes. Additionally, a budget is submitted to the Florida Clerks of Court Operations Corporation for the Court Services Fund. The financial statements presented include the general fund, special revenue funds, and agency funds of the Clerk’s office. The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Clerk to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Clerk. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Clerk, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Clerk is considered to be financially accountable. The general operations of the Clerk are funded by: fees from third parties, transfer in lieu of fees from the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board), appropriations from the State of Florida, and interest income. Pursuant to Chapter 218 Florida Statutes, funds remaining in the general fund at fiscal year-end, in excess of amounts expended, are returned to the Board. Excess revenues returned to the Board are reflected as transfers out in the Clerk’s general fund. Court-related operations are funded by the collection of fines, fees costs and service charges, and a child support grant. Any surplus of revenues after expenditures in this fund is remitted to the State in January of the next year. Special revenue funds are retained by the Clerk and budgeted according to requirements of each source. The State transitioned the Clerk in July, 2013 to be self-funded from fees and fines. Pursuant to Section 28.37, Florida Statute, any surplus revenues over expenditures will be returned to the State. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Clerk. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Governmental Funds Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Clerk reports the following major governmental funds: General Fund – The general fund is used to account for all revenue and expenditures applicable to the general operations of the Clerk, which are not accounted for in another fund. All operating revenue not specifically restricted or designated as to use, is recorded in the general fund. Court Services Fund – The court services fund is a special revenue fund established to account for court-related filing fees, service charges, fines, court costs, appropriations and expenses of the Clerk as mandated by Section 28.35, Florida Statutes. Other Special Revenue Fund – The other special revenue fund is a special revenue fund used to account for revenues mandated by Section 28.24(12)(d), Florida Statutes, to be held in trust by the Clerk and used exclusively for equipment and maintenance of equipment, personnel training, and technical assistance in modernizing the public records system of the office, and revenues mandated by Section 28.24(12)(e), Florida Statutes, to be used exclusively for funding court-related technology needs. This fund also accounts for revenues and expenditures pursuant to Section 28.37(5), Florida Statutes. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Clerk considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. Charges for services, interest income, and other revenues are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 12 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) With the implementation of Revision 7 to Article V on July 1, 2004, the Clerk’s activities are classified as court-related and non-court-related. The Clerk’s general fund activity, which is classified as non-court-related, is funded through service charges for recording instruments and documents into the official records, interest income and through transfers in from the Board of County Commissioners. Court-related operations are funded by the collection of fines, fees costs and service charges, and a child support grant. Any surplus of revenues after expenditures in this fund is remitted to the State in January of the next year. Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures for the general fund be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenues were recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as other financing use in the accompanying purpose financial statements. Capital outlays expended in governmental funds are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Clerk. Additionally, the Clerk reports the following fund type: Fiduciary Funds – Agency Funds – Agency funds are used to account for assets held by the Clerk in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, other governments, and other funds. The agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the full accrual basis of accounting. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Clerk does not currently hold investments. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 13 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Clerk are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 240 hours of unused vacation leave (with limited exceptions per the employee manual). Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation leave and sick leave are included in governmental funds when the payments are made to employees. The Clerk is not legally required to accumulate financial resources for these un-matured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the Clerk’s funds, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Prepaid Expenses The Clerk has elected to follow GASB Codification 1600.127 Other Expenditure Recognition Alternatives and expends maintenance costs as they are incurred and does not allocate the cost between periods. Use of Estimates The preparation of these financial statements requires management of the Clerk to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ slightly from those estimates. Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent. Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. There were no non-spendable fund balances at the Clerk as of September 30, 2016. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 14 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions (continued) Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Clerk’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Clerk’s fund balances for the special revenue funds fall into the spendable restricted category. Fund balances maintained in the special revenue funds are restricted pursuant to certain Florida Statutes and have been presented as restricted fund balances in the fund financial statements in accordance with GASB Statement No. 54. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available, the Clerk considers restricted funds to have been spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for which committed, assigned, or unassigned fund balances are available, the Clerk considers amounts to have been spent first out of committed funds, then assigned funds, and finally unassigned funds, as needed, unless the Clerk has provided otherwise in its commitment or assignment actions. 2. Budgetary Process Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Clerk’s annual budget. The Clerk prepares and approves the budget for the Clerk s non-court functions, including special revenue fund and the budget related to the recording function based on anticipated fees. The budget of the Clerk for services to the Board is submitted to the Board. Pursuant to Section 28.36, Florida Statutes, a balanced court-related budget must be prepared on or before June 1 (for the period starting the next October 1 through September 30) and submitted to the Florida Clerks of Court Operations Corporation (Corporation). If the Clerk estimates that projected revenues are insufficient to meet anticipated expenditures, the Clerk must report the revenue deficit to the Corporation. Once the Corporation verifies the revenue deficit, the Clerk can increase fees up to the maximum amounts specified by law to resolve the deficit. If a revenue deficit is still projected, a request can be submitted to release funds from the Department of Revenue Clerks of the Court Trust Fund. For the year ended September 30, 2016, the Clerk had sufficient revenues to meet expenditures. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 15 2. Budgetary Process (continued) The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, except for the classification and presentation of the distribution of excess court revenue to the State for the court services fund, which is treated as other financing use (transfer out) for budgetary purposes and as an expenditure in the statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance in the court services fund. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Any subsequent amendments to the Board approved transfer must be approved by the Board; amendments to the Clerk’s fee budget are at the discretion of the Clerk, and any amendments that increase or decrease the court budget must be approved by the Corporation for the court services fund. Budgetary changes within the court services fund not affecting the overall budget are made at the discretion of the Clerk. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year- end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Clerk. The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year. 3. Cash and Cash Equivalents At September 30, 2016, the carrying value of the Clerk’s cash and cash equivalents was as follows: Carrying Type Maturity Value Credit Rating Cash on hand N/A 7,600$ N/A Demand deposits N/A 33,322,160 N/A Total cash and cash equivalents 33,329,760$ The Clerk maintains a cash pool for the deposits of all governmental and agency funds. Each fund type’s portion of these balances is presented as cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying financial statements. Interest income is allocated to each fund based on its proportionate balance in the pool. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 16 3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued) Cash and cash equivalents as of September 30, 2016 are reported as $8,126,709 and $25,203,051 in the governmental funds and fiduciary funds, respectively. Custodial Credit Risk At September 30, 2016, the Clerk’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss. Credit Risk The Clerk’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Clerk to invest in Florida PRIME or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Inter-local Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury, federal agencies and instrumentalities, or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. Additionally, Florida Statutes allow local governments to place public funds with institutions that participate in a collateral pool under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost. Interest Rate Risk Investment of Clerk’s funds is based on maintaining 24 hour liquidity. All Clerks funds are held in local banks or short term investment instruments. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 17 4. Interest Income and Investment of County Funds Pursuant to Florida Statutes, Section 28.33, the Clerk invests all County funds in excess of those required to meet expenses. Interest income is allocated to each fund based on its proportionate balance in the pool. Interest income of $15,209 is reported in the general fund for the year ended September 30, 2016, as the portion of interest earned on Clerk funds. 5. Capital Assets Capital assets used by the governmental fund type operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Clerk. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the governmental funds of the Clerk and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Clerk maintains custodial responsibility for capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. The following is a summary of changes in capital assets, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida: October 1, Transfer- September 30, 2015 Additions Deductions out 2016 Capital assets depreciated: Machinery and equipment 7,573,417$ 347,453$ (651,361)$ (6,173)$ 7,263,336$ Less accumulated depreciation (5,587,369) (655,461) 651,359 6,173 (5,585,298) Total capital assets depreciated 1,986,048 (308,008) (2) - 1,678,038 Total capital assets, net 1,986,048$ (308,008)$ (2)$ -$ 1,678,038$ Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 18 6. Long-Term Liabilities The following is a summary of changes in long-term liabilities which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida: October 1, September 30, 2015 Additions Deletions 2016 Accrued compensated absences 1,828,399$ 887,990$ (913,778)$ 1,802,611$ Of these liabilities, $901,306 is expected to be paid during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2017. These long-term liabilities are not reported in the financial statements of the Clerk since they have not matured. 7. Pension Plans Background The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan for participating public employees. The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for FRS members effective July 1, 2002. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan. Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State- administered retirement system in paying the costs of health insurance. Essentially all regular employees of the Clerk are eligible to enroll as members of the State- administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter 238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by further action from the Florida Legislature. The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. A comprehensive annual financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ Web site (www.dms.myflorida.com). Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 19 7. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan Plan Description The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees. The general classes of membership are as follows:  Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.  Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government.  Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions.  Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for this class. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service. All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service. All members enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or at any age after 30 years of service. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service toward creditable service. The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible participants. DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months. During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 20 7. Pension Plans (continued) Benefits Provided Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in-line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits. As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of-living adjustment is 3% per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3% determined by dividing the sum of the pre- July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement multiplied by 3%. FRS Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a cost-of-living adjustment after retirement. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of FRS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program Plan Description The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (HIS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes, and may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees of State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 21 7. Pension Plans (continued) Benefits Provided For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, eligible retirees and beneficiaries received a monthly HIS payment of $5 for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement, with a minimum HIS payment of $30 and a maximum HIS payment of $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS Plan benefit, a retiree under a State- administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which may include Medicare. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of HIS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. FRS Investment Plan The Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the defined contribution plan officially titled the FRS Investment Plan (Investment Plan). The Investment Plan is reported in the SBA’s annual financial statements and in the State of Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. Clerk employees participating in DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan. Contributions are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among various approved investment choices. Costs of administering plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06% of payroll and by forfeited benefits of plan members. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 22 7. Pension Plans (continued) For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds. Non-vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered employment within the 5-year period, the employee will regain control over their account. If the employee does not return within the 5-year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the Clerk. After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump-sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income. Contributions Participating employer contributions are based upon statewide rates established by the State of Florida. The Clerk’s contributions made to the plans during the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $750,024, $754,154, and $738,661, respectively, equal to the actuarially determined contribution requirements for each year. Additional information about pension plans can be found in the Collier County comprehensive annual financial report or County-wide financial statements. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 23 8. Related Party Transactions The Board provided funding for the Clerk in the amount of $6,014,400. The Supervisor of Elections provided funding in the amount of a $46,400 fee for financial services performed by the Clerk. At September 30, 2016, the Clerk had a payable due to the Board of $528,505, comprised as follows: Distribution of excess fees 196,634$ Amounts due for various services 3,587 Agency funds due 328,284 Total due to Board of County Commissioners 528,505$ 9. Risk Management Collier County, Florida (County) is exposed to various risks of loss, including, but not limited to, general liability, health and life, property and casualty, auto and physical damage, and workers’ compensation. The County is substantially self-insured and accounts for and finances its risk of uninsured losses through an internal service fund. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the County. During the year ended September 30, 2016, the Clerk was charged $2,424,957 by the County for participation in the risk management program. The County retains the first $500,000 per claim for workers’ compensation, and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to the statutory limits for each injury and illness. The County also provides coverage for up to $500,000 per occurrence for general liability and $300,000 per occurrence for auto liability coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. Negligence claims in excess of the statutory limits set in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, which provide for limited sovereign immunity of $200,000/$300,000 per occurrence can only be recovered through an act of the State Legislature. Property claims are subject to a 5% wind deductible and a $50,000 deductible for all other perils. The County retains the first $100,000 per claim/$200,000 per occurrence for public official errors and omissions and crime coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage in the last year. Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the last three years. The County is self-insured for health claims covering all of its employees and their eligible dependents. The County retains the first $400,000 per covered member and has purchased outside excess coverage for all claims exceeding this amount. An actuarial valuation is performed each year to estimate the amounts needed to pay prior and future claims and to establish reserves. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 24 10. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan The Clerk follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for its post-employment benefits. Plan Description The Clerk participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however, additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Under Florida statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. The Clerk provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care. Funding Policy The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self-insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Clerk had a net OPEB obligation of $56,221 as of September 30, 2016. The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed on October 1, 2015. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post-employment benefit plan as a whole. Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 25 11. Claims and Contingencies Litigation The Clerk is routinely involved as defendant, plaintiff and as a “party in interest” in carrying out its statutorily and constitutionally assigned tasks. During the year ended September 30, 2016, the Clerk was involved in approximately 104,800 collection cases. These are court actions designed to collect fees and costs imposed by the courts in criminal cases. The Clerk was involved in approximately 250 bond forfeiture actions. Those cases involve collecting forfeitures of criminal appearance bonds. There are approximately 11 actions for foreclosure of property in which the Clerk has been a named defendant. The Clerk was involved in litigation of a Florida Statute related to ownership of interest earned on monies paid into the registry of the court and an inverse condemnation allegation asserting that the Clerk has improperly retained interest accruing on funds in the court’s registry. Two other cases with similar claims were filed in Florida. Both cases found against the respective plaintiffs. The plaintiffs filed a motion for the Florida Supreme Court to rule on the cases. The court denied the motion. The plaintiffs filed to have the U.S. Supreme Court hear the case. The Supreme Court chose not to hear the case and our case settled just after the close of the fiscal year. The Clerk was involved in a litigation regarding fees for public records requests. There is currently a motion for recovery of attorney’s fees in this case. The Clerk is contesting this claim. The Clerk was involved in litigation against the County Manager and Purchasing Director joined by the Board of County Commissioners. This case has settled. There is currently a motion for recovery of costs in this case. These costs are being contested by the Clerk. The Clerk submitted a demand notice for return of payment from a vendor. This matter is continuing and in negotiations for settlement. The Clerk made payments pursuant to a garnishment order to a vendor. The BOCC has an intervention case against the Clerk, stating the Clerk had no authority to make these payments. The BOCC agreed to drop its intervention and authorized the Clerk to settle the claims.

Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court Collier County, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Clerk of the Circuit Court (Clerk), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Clerk’s basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 18, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Clerk’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Clerk’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Clerk’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Honorable Dwight E. Brock Clerk of the Circuit Court 28 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Clerk’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion. Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser 2 Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the general fund of the Property Appraiser as of September 30, 2016, and the changes in financial position and budgetary comparison of its general fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, only for that portion of the major funds of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Property Appraiser. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2016, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report on our consideration of the Property Appraiser’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters included under the heading Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Property Appraiser’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The following is a summary of significant accounting principles and policies used in the preparation of the financial statements of the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser (Property Appraiser). Reporting Entity The Property Appraiser is an elected official of the County, pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Florida, Article VIII, Section 1(d). The Property Appraiser is part of the primary government of the County. Although the Board and the Florida Department of Revenue approve the Property Appraiser’s total operating budget, the Property Appraiser is responsible for the administration and the operation of the Property Appraiser’s office. The Property Appraiser’s financial statements include only the funds of the Property Appraiser’s office. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Property Appraiser is considered to be financially accountable. The financial activities of the Property Appraiser, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation These financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Property Appraiser to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Property Appraiser. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Property Appraiser, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Property Appraiser. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 7 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Governmental Funds Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Property Appraiser’s only governmental fund is the general fund. The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Property Appraiser and includes all transactions not accounted for in another fund. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Property Appraiser considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. Interest revenue and miscellaneous revenue are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Substantially all of the Property Appraiser’s revenue is received from taxing authorities. These monies are virtually unrestricted and are revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt; earlier if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met. Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues exceed annual expenditures be remitted to each governmental agency or the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. Capital outlays expended in the general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Property Appraiser. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 8 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Refund of “Excess Fees” Florida Statutes further provide that the excess of revenues over expenditures held by the Property Appraiser be distributed to each governmental agency or the Board in the same proportion as the fees paid by each governmental agency bear to total fee revenues. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as an other financing use-transfer out in the accompanying financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Property Appraiser are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 200 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service, not to exceed 1,040 hours. Vacation and sick leave payments are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to the employees. The Property Appraiser does not, nor is legally required to, accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Property Appraiser, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Prepaid Expenses The Property Appraiser has elected to follow GASB Codification 1600.127 Other Expenditure Recognition Alternatives and expends maintenance costs as they are incurred and does not allocate the cost between periods. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 9 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Property Appraiser to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Budgetary Process Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Property Appraiser’s annual budget. The Property Appraiser prepares a budget for the general fund and submits it to the Florida Department of Revenue for approval. A copy of the approved budget is provided to the Board. Any subsequent amendments to the Property Appraiser’s total budget must be approved by the Florida Department of Revenue. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budget control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Property Appraiser. The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 10 2. Budgetary Process (continued) During the year, the Property Appraiser exceeded the budgeted amount for operating expenditures mainly as a result of other contractual services which were not expected at the time of the budget preparation. These budget overages were partially offset by budget savings in the personnel services category. 3. Cash At September 30, 2016, the carrying value of the Property Appraiser’s cash was as follows: Carrying Value Cash on hand 125$ Demand deposits 839,830 Total cash 839,955$ Type Custodial Credit Risk At September 30, 2016, the Property Appraiser’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 11 3. Cash (continued) Credit Risk The Property Appraiser’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Property Appraiser to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision; or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. Interest Rate Risk The Property Appraiser has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk. 4. Capital Assets Capital assets used by the Property Appraiser are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Property Appraiser. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the general fund of the Property Appraiser, and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Property Appraiser maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.   Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 12 4. Capital Assets (continued) The following is a summary of changes in capital assets for the year ended September 30, 2016: October 1, September 30, 2015 Additions Deductions 2016 Improvements other than buildings 15,332$ -$ -$ 15,332$ Machinery and equipment 1,682,110 9,204 141,641 1,549,673 Total capital assets 1,697,442 9,204 141,641 1,565,005 Less accumulated depreciation (1,368,063) (98,658) (141,641) (1,325,080) Total capital assets, net 329,379$ (89,454)$ -$ 239,925$ 5. Long-Term Liabilities The following is a summary of changes in long-term liabilities, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida: October 1, September 30, 2015 Increase Decrease 2016 Accrued compensated absences 330,282$ 342,551$ 318,700$ 354,133$ Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 13 5. Long-Term Liabilities (continued) Of these liabilities, approximately $150,000 is expected to be paid during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2017, which will be included in the operating costs of the general fund when expended. These long-term liabilities are not reported in the financial statements of the Property Appraiser since they have not matured. 6. Pension Plans Background The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan for participating public employees. The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for FRS members effective July 1, 2002. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan. Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State-administered retirement system in paying the costs of health insurance. Essentially all regular employees of the Property Appraiser are eligible to enroll as members of the State-administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter 238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by further action from the Florida Legislature. The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. A comprehensive annual financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ Web site (www.dms.myflorida.com). Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 14 6. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan Plan Description The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees. The general classes of membership are as follows:  Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.  Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government.  Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions.  Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for this class. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service. All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service. All members enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or at any age after 30 years of service. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service toward creditable service. The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible participants. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 15 6. Pension Plans (continued) DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months. During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits. Benefits Provided Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in-line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits. As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of-living adjustment is 3 percent per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3 percent determined by dividing the sum of the pre-July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement multiplied by 3 percent. FRS Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a cost-of-living adjustment after retirement. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of FRS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 16 6. Pension Plans (continued) Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program Plan Description The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (HIS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes, and may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees of State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. Benefits Provided For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, eligible retirees and beneficiaries received a monthly HIS payment of $5 for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement, with a minimum HIS payment of $30 and a maximum HIS payment of $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS Plan benefit, a retiree under a State-administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which may include Medicare. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of HIS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. FRS Investment Plan The Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the defined contribution plan officially titled the FRS Investment Plan (Investment Plan). The Investment Plan is reported in the SBA’s annual financial statements and in the State of Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. Property Appraiser employees participating in DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 17 6. Pension Plans (continued) Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan. Contributions are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among various approved investment choices. Costs of administering plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06 percent of payroll and by forfeited benefits of plan members. For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds. Non-vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered employment within the 5-year period, the employee will regain control over their account. If the employee does not return within the 5-year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the Property Appraiser. After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump-sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 18 6. Pension Plans (continued) Contributions The contribution requirements of the Property Appraiser are established and may be amended by the State of Florida. The Property Appraiser’s employer contributions to the plan for the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015 and 2014, were $451,635, $377,140, and $315,882, respectively, equal to the required contributions for each year. Additional information about pension plans can be found in the County’s comprehensive annual financial report or County-wide financial statements. 7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan The Property Appraiser follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for postemployment benefits. Plan Description  The Property Appraiser participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report, however additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida (the County).  Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. In addition, the Property Appraiser provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care. Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 19 7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued) Funding Policy The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Property Appraiser had a net OPEB obligation of $50,327 as of September 30, 2016. The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2013. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post employment benefit plan as a whole. 8. Related-Party Transactions During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016, the Board paid fees to the Property Appraiser that amounted to $6,120,340. At September 30, 2016, the Property Appraiser had a payable due to the Board of $706,795, respectively, comprised as follows: Distribution of excess commissions and fees 706,795$ 9.

CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com   21 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser Collier County, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the general fund of the Collier County,  Florida Property Appraiser (Property Appraiser), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Property Appraiser’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 12, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Property Appraiser’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Property Appraiser’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Property Appraiser’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We did identify a certain deficiency in internal control, described below as item 2016-002, that we consider to be a material weakness. Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser 22 2016-002 – Audit Adjustment Criteria The Property Appraiser is responsible for ensuring the accuracy of the financial statements. Condition A material audit adjustment was required to correct revenue, expenditures, and fund balance. Cause An erroneous entry was recorded to net revenue and expenditures for the amount that the Property Appraiser was over budget for the year. Effect Revenue and expenditures were understated. Recommendation We recommend that management and the Property Appraiser review the financial information to ensure the no journal entries are prepared that net revenue and expenditure items. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions Management agrees that the entry needed to be corrected. Management has put processes into place to ensure that all entries are reviewed for accuracy and approved. Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser 23 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Property Appraiser’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and which is described below as item 2016-001. 2016-001 – Budget Criteria Florida Statutes 195.087 (1)(a) requires the Property Appraiser to submit a budget for operation of the Property Appraiser’s office for the fiscal year to the Florida Department of Revenue (DOR) for review and approval. Total expenditures should not exceed the total appropriations as approved by DOR. Condition The Property Appraiser’s total expenditures exceeded its final approved total appropriations. Cause A budget amendment was not submitted prior to the expenditure of additional amounts for capital outlay. Effect The Property Appraiser expended $89,313 in excess of final approved appropriations. Recommendation We recommend that management and the Property Appraiser periodically review budget to actual reports to determine if the Property Appraiser is adhering to its adopted budget. If circumstances arise that will cause the Property Appraiser to incur total expenditures in excess of approved total appropriations, the Property Appraiser should first submit a budget amendment to the DOR. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions Management encountered some unexpected expenses, such as increased insurance and a billing form FRS did not file a budget amendment. Management has added the budget to the accounting software to allow budget to actual to be monitored in a timely fashion. Property Appraiser’s Response to Findings The Property Appraiser’s responses to the findings identified in our audit are described previously. The Property Appraiser’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them. Honorable Abe Skinner Property Appraiser 24 Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff   2 Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information for the Sheriff as of September 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows and budgetary comparison thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County that is attributable to the Sheriff. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County as of September 30, 2016, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Schedule of Funding Progress for the Retiree Health Plan, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the financial statements. Such information, although not a required part of the financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff   3 Supplementary Information Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the Sheriff’s financial statements. The combining statements, as listed in the table of contents, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the financial statements. The combining statements are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the combining statements are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 20, 2016 on our consideration of the Sheriff’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters included under the heading Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Sheriff’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

September 30, 2016 11 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Reporting Entity The Collier County, Florida Sheriff (Sheriff) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. Pursuant to Chapter 129, Florida Statutes, the Sheriff’s budget is submitted to the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board) for approval. The Sheriff is the chief law enforcement officer of Collier County, Florida (County) and is responsible for operating the County’s corrections facilities. The financial statements include the general fund, special revenue funds, proprietary fund (internal service fund), and agency funds of the Sheriff’s office. The accompanying financial statements were prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Sheriff to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Sheriff. They are not intended to present fairly the financial positions and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Sheriff is financially accountable. Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General - Local Governmental Entity Audits requires the Sheriff to only present fund financial statements. Accordingly, due to the omission of government-wide financial statements and related disclosures, including a management’s discussion and analysis, these financial statements do not constitute a complete presentation of the financial position of the Sheriff as of September 30, 2016 and the changes in its financial position and its cash flows, where applicable, for the year then ended, in conformity with Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements – and Management’s Discussion and Analysis – for State and Local Governments, but otherwise constitute financial statements prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As a result of the budgetary oversight by the Board and the financial dependency on the Board, the financial activities of the Sheriff are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 12 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation Transfers are provided by appropriations from the Board pursuant to law. Estimated receipts and budgeted fund balances must equal appropriations. The Sheriff is required to refund to the Board all excess appropriations annually; therefore, no unappropriated general fund balance is carried forward. The fund financial statements report detailed information about the Sheriff. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column. Governmental Funds Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Sheriff considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end with the exception of grants, which have a period of availability of one year. Grants are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements have been met. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. Substantially all of the Sheriff’s funding is appropriated by the Board. In applying the susceptible to accrual concept to intergovernmental revenue, there are essentially two types of revenue. In one, money must be expended on the specific purpose or project before any amounts will be paid to the Sheriff; therefore, revenue is recognized based upon the expenditures incurred. In the other, money is virtually unrestricted and is revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt, or earlier, if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met. Other revenue is recognized as earned and becomes measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 13 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Governmental Funds (continued) Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as another financing use in the accompanying financial statements. Capital outlays expended in governmental fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Sheriff. The Sheriff has three major governmental funds: General Fund – The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Sheriff and includes all transactions which are not accounted for in another fund. Grant Special Revenue Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of federal and state grant revenues that are legally restricted to specified purposes. Prisoner Welfare Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of inmate related services and is legally restricted to specified purposes, which benefit the inmate population. Federal Equitable Sharing Fund – The revenue from this fund is the result of joint investigations with federal agencies that result in the equitable sharing of the net proceeds of the forfeiture. The Sheriff also has the following non-major funds: Reported as Other Non-major Special Revenue Funds Confiscated Trust Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of funds collected pursuant to Florida Statute 932.705. Funds are used for local match for grants, drug abuse education and prevention programs, and for other law enforcement purposes as the Board deems appropriate. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 14 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Governmental Funds (continued) Civil Citation – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of funds collected pursuant to Florida Statute 775.083. Funds are used for local match for grants and to defray the costs for crime prevention programs in the county. Education Trust Fund – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of funds collected pursuant to Florida Statute 943.25. Funds are used to defray training costs. E911 – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of funds collected pursuant to Florida Statute 365.172. Funds are used to pay certain costs associated with the Emergency 911 System. Criminal Justice Education and Training – Criminal Justice Education and Training – This fund is used to account for the proceeds of funds collected pursuant to Florida Statute 943.25. Funds are used to defray training costs. Fund balances reported in these funds are to be used for the specified purpose of the respective fund. Fiduciary Funds Fiduciary Funds – Agency Funds – These funds are used to account for assets held by the Sheriff as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Proprietary Fund Internal Service Fund – This fund is used to account for the health and dental insurance services provided to departments and retirees of the Sheriff on a cost-reimbursement basis. Proprietary funds are accounted for using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 15 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Sheriff invests funds throughout the year with Florida Prime, an investment pool administered by the State Board of Administration (“SBA”), under the regulatory oversight of the State of Florida. Investments in Florida PRIME are made pursuant to Chapter 125.31, Florida Statutes. Florida PRIME is considered a qualifying external investment pool that meets all the necessary criteria to elect to measure all of the investments at amortized cost. Therefore, the fair value of the Sheriff’s position in the pool is the same as the value of the pool shares. The investments are not categorized because they are not evidenced by securities that exist in physical or book entry form. Throughout the year, and as of September 30, 2016, Florida PRIME contained certain floating and adjustable rate securities. These investments represented 27.6% of Florida PRIME’s portfolio at September 30, 2016. In accordance with GASB 79, as a participant in a qualifying external investment pool, the Sheriff should disclose the presence of any limitations or restrictions on withdrawals (such as redemption notice periods, maximum transaction amounts, and the qualifying external investment pool’s authority to impose liquidity fees or redemption gates in the notes to the financial statements. With regards to redemption gates, Chapter 218.409(8)(a), Florida Statutes, states that “The principal, and any part thereof, of each account constituting the trust fund is subject to payment at any time from the moneys in the trust fund. However, the Executive Director may, in good faith, on the occurrence of an event that has a material impact on liquidity or operations of the trust fund, for 48 hours limit contributions to or withdrawals from the trust fund to ensure that the Board can invest moneys entrusted to it in exercising its fiduciary responsibility. Such action must be immediately disclosed to all participants, the Trustees, the Joint Legislative Auditing Committee, the Investment Advisory Council, and the Participant Local Government Advisory council. The Trustees shall convene an emergency meeting before the expiration of the 48-hour moratorium on contributions and withdrawals, the moratorium may be extended by the Executive Director until the Trustees are able to meet to review the necessity for the moratorium. If the Trustees agree with such measures, the Trustees shall vote to continue any such measures before the expiration of the time limit set, but in no case may the time limit set by the Trustees exceed 15 days.” Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 16 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Cash Equivalents and Investments (continued) With regard to liquidity fees, Florida Statute 218.409(4) provides authority for the SBA to impose penalties for early withdrawal, subject to disclosure in the enrollment materials of the amount and purpose of such fees. At present, no such disclosure has been made. At September 30, 2016, there were no redemption fees or maximum transaction amounts, or any other requirements that serve to limit a participant’s daily access to 100 percent of their account value. Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Sheriff are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick time and up to 500 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours. If the member leaves in good standing they will also receive a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service, not to exceed 2,000 hours. Vacation time and sick leave are included in operating costs when the payments are made to the employees. The Sheriff does not, nor is the Sheriff legally required to, accumulate expendable financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the governmental funds, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements for the County. Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Sheriff to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Significant items subject to such estimates and assumptions include the self-insurance claims payable. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 17 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions (continued) Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The Sheriff did not have any non-spendable fund balances as of September 30, 2016. Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Sheriff’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Sheriff’s fund balances for the grant special revenue fund, prisoner welfare fund and federal equitable sharing fund fall into this category. Fund balances maintained in the Grant Special Revenue Fund, Prisoner Welfare Fund and the Federal Equitable Sharing Fund are constrained for specific purposes that are externally imposed by grantors, laws, or regulations or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation, and are reports as restricted fund balances. 2. Budgetary Process Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Sheriff’s annual budget. The Sheriff prepares a budget for the general fund and submits it to the Board for approval. The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, except that the proceeds from capital leases and the related capital outlay are not budgeted and certain expenditures for long-term projects which are reimbursed by the Board are also not budgeted. Any subsequent amendments to the budget must be approved by the Board. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within the major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Sheriff. The Sheriff does not budget for the grant special revenue fund as it is funded by federal and state grants and is governed by those documents. Additionally, the prisoner welfare and federal equitable sharing funds do not have legally adopted budgets. The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.

Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments (continued) Custodial Credit Risk At September 30, 2016, the Sheriff’s demand deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the government entity for the loss. The investments in the Internal Service Fund are part of the Florida Sheriffs Multiple Employers Trust (FSMET) and are administered by Hunt Insurance Group. FMSET’s policy required execution of a third-party custodial safekeeping agreement for purchased securities and collateral, and requires that securities be held in the Sheriff’s name. Credit Risk The Sheriff’s policy is to follow the guidance in Sections 218.415 and 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. The Sheriff’s Investment Policy authorizes investments in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund), or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act, as provided in s. 163.01, F.S.; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in qualified public depositories, as defined in s. 280.02, F.S.; and direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury. Additionally, Florida Statutes allow local governments to place public funds with institutions that participate in a collateral pool under the Florida Security for Public Deposits Act. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost. Florida PRIME is administered by the State Board of Administration. Florida PRIME consisted of money market appropriate assets. At September 30, 2016, the Sheriff had $746,297 invested in Florida Prime. Florida Prime is rated “AAAm” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services. Interest Rate Risk The Sheriff has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 21 3. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments (continued) Concentration of Credit Risk The Sheriff’s investments are included in the internal service fund which is used to account for the Sheriff’s self-insured health plan. The Florida Sheriff’s Multiple Employer Trust (FSMET) administers the investments for the Sheriff’s self-insured health plan and has an investment policy that allows for the investment of funds that exceed one month’s required funding by more than $100,000. Investments can be made in government securities. The Sheriff’s portfolio managed by FSMET includes investments in U.S. government instrumentalities, and demand deposits. There are also demand deposits that are not managed by FSMET and are available dollars managed by the Sheriff to cover daily operations. The portion of the Sheriff’s portfolio invested in FSMET is detailed as follows, at September 30, 2016: % of Portfolio Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. 34% Federal National Mortgage Association 3% Federal Home Loan Bank 12%     Fair Value Measurements The Sheriff 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. The Sheriff has the following recurring fair value measurements as of September 30, 2016: U.S. Treasury Notes classified as level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. U.S. Agency obligations classified as level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using quoted prices for similar assets in active markets. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 22 4. Capital Assets Capital assets used by the Sheriff are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Sheriff. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the governmental funds of the Sheriff and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of the County. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Sheriff maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by his office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense on these assets is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida.

The program is designed for students to explore the opportunity to learn about and interact with law enforcement and to help stimulate further interest in the possibility of a law enforcement career. 8. Pension Plans Background The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan for participating public employees. The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for FRS members effective July 1, 2002. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan. Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State-administered retirement system in paying the costs of health insurance. Essentially all regular employees of the Sheriff are eligible to enroll as members of the State- administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter 238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by further action from the Florida Legislature. The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. A comprehensive annual financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ Web site (www.dms.myflorida.com). Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 26 8. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan Plan Description The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees. The general classes of membership are as follows:  Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.  Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government.  Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions.  Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for this class. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service. All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service. All members enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or at any age after 30 years of service. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service toward creditable service. The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible participants. DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months. During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 27 8. Pension Plans (continued) Benefits Provided Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in- line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits. As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of- living adjustment is 3 percent per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3 percent determined by dividing the sum of the pre-July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement multiplied by 3 percent. FRS Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a cost-of-living adjustment after retirement. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of FRS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government- wide statements of the County. Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program Plan Description The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (HIS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes, and may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees of State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 28 8. Pension Plans (continued) Benefits Provided For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, eligible retirees and beneficiaries received a monthly HIS payment of $5 for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement, with a minimum HIS payment of $30 and a maximum HIS payment of $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS Plan benefit, a retiree under a State-administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which may include Medicare. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of HIS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government- wide statements of the County. FRS Investment Plan The Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the defined contribution plan officially titled the FRS Investment Plan (Investment Plan). The Investment Plan is reported in the SBA’s annual financial statements and in the State of Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. Sheriff employees participating in DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan. Contributions are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among various approved investment choices. Costs of administering plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06 percent of payroll and by forfeited benefits of plan members. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 29 8. Pension Plans (continued) For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds. Non-vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered employment within the 5-year period, the employee will regain control over their account. If the employee does not return within the 5-year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the Sheriff. After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump- sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income. Contributions Participating employer contributions are based upon statewide rates established by the State of Florida. The Sheriff’s contributions made to the plans during the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $15,023,011, $13,341,786, and $12,767,042, respectively, equal to the actuarially determined contribution requirements for each year. Additional information about pension plans can be found in the County’s comprehensive annual financial report. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 30 9. Other Postemployment Benefits The Sheriff follows the provisions of GASB Statement No. 45 Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions, for its other postemployment benefits (OPEB). Plan Description The Sheriff administers a single-employer defined benefit plan (OPEB Plan) and can amend the benefit provisions. Prior to 2010, the Sheriff offered an OPEB Plan that subsidized the cost of health care for of retirees who have six years of creditable service with the Sheriff and who receive a monthly retirement benefit from the Florida Retirement System. The Sheriff subsidizes approximately 20% for both single coverage and family coverage for qualifying individuals. In 2010, the subsidy was no longer made available to eligible retirees who chose to continue their health insurance coverage. Approximately 46% of retirees receive the subsidy. Additionally, in accordance with Florida Statute 112.0801, Sheriff’s employees who retire and immediately begin receiving benefits from the FRS have the option of paying premiums to continue in the Sheriff’s health insurance plan at the same group rate as for active employees. At September 30, 2016, the date of the latest actuarial valuation, the Sheriff’s plan participation consisted of: OPEB plan participants 1,105 Retirees receiving benefits 106 Funding Policy The Sheriff has the authority to establish and amend funding policy. The OPEB Plan is currently being funded on a pay as you go basis. For the year ended September 30, 2016, the Sheriff contributed $818,021 to the OPEB Plan. The annual other postemployment benefit cost for the plan is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. 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 over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed as of October 1, 2016. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 31 9. Other Postemployment Benefits (continued) Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation The annual cost (expense) of the Sheriff’s OPEB Plan is calculated based on the ARC. The following table shows the components of the Sheriff’s annual OPEB Plan cost for the year ended September 30, 2016, the amount actually contributed, and the changes in the net OPEB Plan obligation. Annual required contribution $ 1,305,135 Interest on net OPEB obligation 65,043 Adjustment to annual required contribution (107,393) Annual OPEB cost (expense) 1,262,785 Contributions made (818,021) Increase in net OPEB obligation (asset) 444,764 Net OPEB obligation – beginning of year 2,168,099 Net OPEB obligation (asset) – end year $ 2,612,863 No trust or agency fund has been established for the plan. The Sheriff’s annual OPEB cost, the percentage of annual OPEB cost contributed to the plan, and the net OPEB obligation for the year ended September 30, 2016 and the preceding years were as follows: Percentage of Annual Annual OPEB Net OPEB Fiscal Year Ended OPEB Cost Cost Contributed Obligation September 30, 2016 September 30, 2015 September 30, 2014 $ 1,262,785 $ 1,229,237 $ 1,112,653 64% 60% 70% $ 2,612,863 $ 2,168,099 $ 1,681,238 Funded Status and Funding Progress As of the September 30, 2016 actuarial valuation date, the OPEB Plan was 0% funded, the actuarial accrued liability for benefits was $15,684,350, and the actuarial value of assets was $0, resulting in an unfunded actuarial accrued liability (UAAL) of $15,684,350. The covered payroll (annual payroll of active employees covered by the OPEB Plan) was approximately $122.9 million, and the ratio of the UAAL to the covered payroll was 12.8%. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016  32 9. Other Post Employment Benefits (continued) Funded Status and Funding Progress (continued) 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 liabilities for benefits. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. Calculations for financial reporting purposes are based on the benefits provided under terms of the plan as understood by the employer and the plan members in effect at the time of each valuation and on the pattern of sharing of costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The projection of benefits for financial reporting purposes does not explicitly incorporate the potential effects of legal or contractual funding limitations on the pattern of cost sharing between the employer and plan members in the future. Actuarial calculations reflect a long-term perspective. Consistent with that perspective, actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets. The actuarial methods are: Actuarial cost method Projected Unit Credit Method Amortization method Closed Amortization period 30 years, Level Dollar Amount The actuarial assumptions are: Investment rate of return 3% Discount rate 3% Healthcare cost trend rate 8% for the 2016 fiscal year grading to an ultimate rate of 5% for the 2023 fiscal year Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016  33 10. Self-Insurance Program The Sheriff’s Office participates in the Statewide Florida Sheriff’s Self-Insurance Fund (the Fund) for its professional liability insurance. The Fund is managed by representatives of the participating Sheriff offices and provides professional liability insurance to participating agencies. The Fund provides liability insurance coverage subject to the following limitations: $5,000,000 for any one incident, and $10,000,000 for an annual aggregate. The Sheriff also participates in the Fund for workers’ compensation coverage. The Florida Sheriffs Workers’ Compensation Self Insurance Program is a self-insurance program providing coverage for the first $500,000 of every claim. Reinsurance is purchased by the Program to cover claims exceeding $500,000 (or $350,000 where applicable) up to $10,000,000. Reinsurance coverage up to $20,000,000 any one person on a catastrophic basis is available when applicable. Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third-party carriers in any of the past three years. Premiums charged to participating Sheriffs are based upon amounts believed by the Fund management to meet the estimated annual payout during the fiscal year and to pay for the estimated operating costs of the program. All liabilities associated with these self-insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the Fund. The Sheriff has also established a self-funded employee health plan for active employees and retirees. An internal service fund is used to account for the activities of the plan. Excess coverage has been purchased which provides specific claim excess coverage for any one incident exceeding $200,000. In FY15 there was one covered member who had a deductible amount of $450,000 because of a history of high claims. Specific claim excess coverage for this individual was for claims exceeding $450,000. The maximum annual individual stop loss payment amount is unlimited. Payments to the internal service fund are based on actuarial estimates of amounts needed to pay prior year and current year claims including claims incurred but not yet reported. The Sheriff’s Office uses a Third-Party Administrator (TPA) to administer and pay claims for the health plan. Meritain Health, Inc. has been the TPA since July 1, 2013. Changes in the balance of estimated insurance claims payable for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 is as follows: New Claims Balance and Changes Claim Balance Fiscal year ending: October 1 in Estimates Payments September 30 2015 $ 2,078,000 $ 15,167,000 $ (19,415,000) $ 2,170,000 2016 $ 2,170,000 $ 16,473,000 $ (21,022,000) $ 2,379,000 Collier County, Florida Sheriff Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016  34 11. Claims and Contingencies Litigation The Sheriff is involved in various claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of operations. In the opinion of management, the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Sheriff. Federal and State Grants Grant funds received by the Sheriff are subject to audit by grantor agencies. Audits of these grants may result in disallowed costs, which may constitute a liability of the Sheriff. In the opinion of management, disallowed costs, if any, would be immaterial to the financial position of the Sheriff.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Sheriff's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Sheriff’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Sheriff’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff 39 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Sheriff's financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP Naples, Florida December 20, 2016 CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com   40 MANAGEMENT LETTER Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the financial statements of the Collier County, Florida Sheriff (Sheriff), as of and for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2016 and have issued our report thereon dated December 20, 2016. Auditors’ Responsibility We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Other Reports and Schedule We have issued our Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards; Schedule of Findings and Responses; and Independent Accountants’ Report on an examination conducted in accordance with AICPA Professional Standards, Section 601, regarding compliance requirements in accordance with Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General. Disclosures in those reports and schedule, which are dated December 20, 2016, should be considered in conjunction with this management letter. Prior Audit Findings Section 10.554(1)(i)1., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we determine whether or not corrective actions have been taken to address findings and recommendations made in the preceding annual financial audit report. There were no findings and recommendations made in the preceding annual financial audit report. Official Title and Legal Authority Section 10.554(1)(i)4., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that the name or official title and legal authority for the primary government and each component unit of the reporting entity be disclosed in this management letter, unless disclosed in the notes to the financial statements. See Note 1 in the notes to the financial statements. Honorable Kevin Rambosk Sheriff 41 Other Matters Section 10.554(1)(i)2., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we address in the management letter any recommendations to improve financial management. In connection with our audit, we made recommendations as listed in the following schedule of findings and responses. The Sheriff’s responses to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The Sheriff’s responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses. Section 10.554(1)(i)3., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we address noncompliance with provisions of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse, that have occurred, or are likely to have occurred, that have an effect on the financial statements that is less than material but which warrants the attention of those charged with governance. In connection with our audit, we did not have any such findings. Purpose of this Letter Our management letter is intended solely for the information and use of the Legislative Auditing Committee, members of the Florida Senate and the Florida House of Representatives, the Florida Auditor General, Federal and other granting agencies, and the Sheriff and applicable management, and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. CliftonLarsonAllen LLP Naples, Florida December 20, 2016 Collier County, Florida Sheriff Schedule of Findings and Responses September 30, 2016 42 Current Year Findings and Recommendations MLC 2016-001 User Access Rights Criteria: Employee access rights to the system applications should be restricted to not include conflicting duties. Additionally, terminated employees should be removed from the system in a timely manner. Condition: During the audit, CLA noted that fiscal payroll clerk user rights were not properly restricted for adding new employees. Additionally, two terminated employees had access rights that were not disabled/deleted timely. Effect: There is an increased risk that access and user rights are inappropriately granted and are not appropriately restricted which could cause a lack of segregation of duties within the control environment of the Sheriff. Additionally, the IT department does not have a process in place to ensure a terminated employee’s rights are disabled/deleted in a timely manner. This results in increased security risk and to network vulnerabilities. Recommendation: The IT department should ensure that individuals are not granted conflicted access to the system and are appropriately restricted. Additionally, the IT department should develop a process to ensure terminated employees are removed from access to the system in a timely manner. Management’s Response: User rights for fiscal payroll clerks have been reviewed and modified so new employees can no longer be added. Access rights to the finance system are periodically updated by the IT department to disable/delete terminated employees. It should be noted that when any employee is terminated from the agency, their network login (primary login for access to any agency programs) is disabled by the IT department upon the member’s termination. Members cannot access any agency programs unless they are using any agency issued desktop or laptop computer. While the finance program access for the two noted employees was not immediately disabled, their network login was disabled upon their termination. This would have made it extremely difficult for either of them to access the finance program as they would have had to have access to an agency computer which had the finance program installed, and which another member was logged on to the network. Measures have been put in place to disable/delete a member’s access to finance programs when their employment has been terminated. Collier County, Florida Sheriff Schedule of Findings and Responses September 30, 2016 43 MLC 2016-002 E911 Expenditures Criteria: Florida Statutes Section 365.172 defines allowable expenditures for E911 funding. Condition: During the audit, CLA noted unallowable expenditures consisting of $12,361 of promotional items, $703 of auto insurance and $963 liability insurance that were paid from E911 funds. Effect: The Sheriff did not comply with the restrictions on the use of E911 funding and monitoring procedures over the use of E911 funds and did not identify the issue. Recommendation: Sheriff personnel should become familiar with and develop a clear understanding of the allowable expenditures under E911 funding and develop tools to assist in the effective monitoring of restrictions under this funding. Management’s Response: Measures have been put in place to thoroughly review any expenditures under E911 funding to ensure they are appropriate and in accordance with Florida Statute 365.172.

Edwards Supervisor of Elections Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of each major fund of the Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the entity’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections 2 Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of each major fund of the Supervisor as of September 30, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and budgetary comparison of its general fund thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, only for that portion of the major funds of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Supervisor. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2016, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing information. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated January 11, 2017 on our consideration of the Supervisor’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters included under the heading Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Supervisors’ internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Reporting Entity The Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor) is an elected constitutional officer as provided for by the Constitution of the State of Florida. Pursuant to Chapter 129, Florida Statutes, the Supervisor of Elections’ budget is submitted to the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (Board) for approval. The financial statements presented include the general fund and grant special revenue fund of the Supervisor’s office. The accompanying financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Supervisor to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Supervisor. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Supervisor, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the SOE is considered to be financially accountable. The general operations of the SOE are funded by appropriations from the Collier County, Florida Board of County Commissioners (BOCC), and grant revenue is funded from the State of Florida. Pursuant to Chapter 218, Florida Statutes, funds remaining in the general fund at fiscal year-end, in excess of amounts expended, are returned to the Board. Excess revenues returned to the Board are reflected as transfers out in the SOE’s general fund. The special revenue fund of the SOE is not budgeted and governed by grant agreements. As a result of the budgetary oversight by the Board and financial dependency on the Board, the financial activities of the Supervisor are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 7 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Supervisor. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column. Governmental Funds Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Supervisor has the following major governmental funds: General Fund – The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Supervisor, and includes all revenues and expenditures which are not accounted for in another fund. Grant Special Revenue Fund – The grants fund is used to account for the activities of voter education and poll worker training grants from the State of Florida. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Supervisor considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. The appropriations from the Board are the primary source of funds considered to be susceptible to accrual. Intergovernmental revenues are recognized when eligibility requirements are met and related amounts are available from the grantor. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 8 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Interest income and other revenues are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues and transfers exceed annual expenditures be remitted to the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as another financing use in the accompanying financial statements. Capital outlays expended in general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Supervisor. Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents are defined as highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Supervisor are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick time and up to 440 hours of unused vacation leave. Effective October 1, 2007, the vacation leave limit was increased to 480 hours, with Supervisor approval. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation time and sick leave are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to employees. The Supervisor does not, nor is legally required to accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Supervisor, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 9 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of the financial statements requires management of the Supervisor to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund-Type Definitions Fund balances are classified either as non-spendable or as spendable. Spendable fund balances are further classified in a hierarchy based on the extent to which there are external and/or internal constraints in how fund balance amounts may be spent. Non-spendable fund balances include amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable form or are legally or contractually required to be maintained intact. The Supervisor did not have any non-spendable fund balances as of September 30, 2016. Spendable fund balances are classified based on a hierarchy of the Supervisor’s ability to control the spending of these fund balances and are reported in the following categories: restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. The Supervisor’s fund balances for the Grant Special Revenue Fund fall into the spendable restricted category. Fund balances maintained in the Grant Special Revenue Fund are restricted pursuant to specific grant agreements, and have been presented in the fund financial statements in accordance with GASB Statement No. 54. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 10 2. Budgetary Process Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption and administration of the Supervisor’s annual budget. The Supervisor submits a budget for the general fund to the Board for approval. The budget is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Any subsequent amendments to the Supervisor’s total budget must be approved by the Board. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year end. Budgetary control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Supervisor. The Supervisor does not budget for the grant special revenue fund as it is funded by State grants and is governed by those documents. The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized. 3. Cash and Cash Equivalents At September 30, 2016, the carrying value of the Supervisor’s cash and cash equivalents was as follows:  Carrying Credit Type Value Rating Cash on hand $ 200 N/A Demand deposits 166,541 N/A Total cash and cash equivalents $ 166,741  Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 11 3. Cash and Cash Equivalents (continued) Custodial Credit Risk At September 30, 2016, the Supervisor’s deposits were entirely covered by Federal Depository Insurance or by collateral pledged with the State Treasurer pursuant to Chapter 280, Florida Statutes. Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss. Credit Risk The Supervisor’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Supervisor to invest in Florida PRIME (formerly the Local Government Surplus Funds Trust Fund) or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the State of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law. The pool is administered by the State Treasurer, who may make additional assessments to ensure that no public funds will be lost. Interest Rate Risk The Supervisor has no specific investment policy regarding interest rate risk. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 12 4. Capital Assets Capital assets used by the Supervisor are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Supervisor. Upon acquisition, such assets are recorded as expenditures in the general fund of the Supervisor and are capitalized at cost in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Donated capital assets are valued at their estimated fair value on the date received. The Supervisor maintains custodial responsibility for the capital assets used by the office. No depreciation expense has been provided on capital assets in these financial statements. However, depreciation expense is recorded in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. The following is a summary of changes in capital assets, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida: October 1, September 30, 2015 Additions Deductions 2016 Machinery and equipment 1,113,822$ 119,009$ (39,589)$ 1,193,242$ Less accumulated depreciation (955,377) (73,164) 39,589 (988,952)$ Machinery and equipment, net 158,445$ 45,845$ -$ 204,290$ 5. Long-Term Liabilities The following is a summary of changes in long-term liabilities, which are reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida:  October 1,   September 30,  2015 Increase Decrease 2016 Accrued compensated absences $ 155,737 $ 106,140 $ 61,167 $ 200,710 Of these liabilities, approximately $78,277 is expected to be paid during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2017, which will be included in the operating costs of the general fund when expended. These long-term liabilities are not reported in the financial statements of the Supervisor since they have not matured. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 13 6. Pension Plans Background The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan for participating public employees. The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for FRS members effective July 1, 2002. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan. Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State-administered retirement system in paying the costs of health insurance. Essentially all regular employees of the Supervisor are eligible to enroll as members of the State- administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter 238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by further action from the Florida Legislature. The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. A comprehensive annual financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ Web site (www.dms.myflorida.com). Florida Retirement System Pension Plan Plan Description The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees. The general classes of membership are as follows: Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes. Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government. Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions. Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for this class. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 14 6. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (continued) Plan Description (continued) Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service. All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service. All members enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or at any age after 30 years of service. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service toward creditable service. The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible participants. DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months. During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 15 6. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (continued) Benefits Provided Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in-line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits. As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of-living adjustment is 3 percent per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3 percent determined by dividing the sum of the pre-July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement multiplied by 3 percent. FRS Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a cost-of-living adjustment after retirement. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of FRS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program Plan Description The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (HIS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes, and may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees of State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 16 6. Pension Plans (continued) Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (continued) Benefits Provided For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, eligible retirees and beneficiaries received a monthly HIS payment of $5 for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement, with a minimum HIS payment of $30 and a maximum HIS payment of $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS Plan benefit, a retiree under a State- administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which may include Medicare. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of HIS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. FRS Investment Plan The Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the defined contribution plan officially titled the FRS Investment Plan (Investment Plan). The Investment Plan is reported in the SBA’s annual financial statements and in the State of Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. SOE employees participating in DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan. Contributions are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among various approved investment choices. Costs of administering plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06 percent of payroll and by forfeited benefits of plan members. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 17 6. Pension Plans (continued) FRS Investment Plan (continued) For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds. Non-vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered employment within the 5-year period, the employee will regain control over their account. If the employee does not return within the 5-year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the SOE. After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump-sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income. Contributions Participating employer contributions are based upon statewide rates established by the State of Florida. The Supervisor’s contributions made to the plans during the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015 and 2014, were $114,600, $106,131 and $103,864, respectively, equal to the actuarially determined contribution requirements for each year. Additional information about pension plans can be found in the County’s comprehensive annual financial report.   Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 18 7. Related-Party Transactions For the year ended September 30, 2016, the Board provided funding for the Supervisor that amounted to $3,994,700.

Risk Management Collier County, Florida (County) is exposed to various risks of loss including, but not limited to, general liability, health and life, property and casualty, auto and physical damage and workers’ compensation. The County is substantially self-insured and accounts for and finances its risk of uninsured losses through an internal service fund. All liabilities associated with these self- insured risks are reported in the basic financial statements of the County. The Supervisor participates in the County’s self-insurance program. During the year ended September 30, 2016, the Supervisor was charged $293,099 by the County for participation in the risk management program. The County retains the first $500,000 per claim for workers’ compensation, and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to statutory limit for each injury or illness. The County also provides coverage for up to $500,000 per occurrence for general liability and $300,000 per occurrence for auto liability coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. Negligence claims in excess of the statutory limits set in Section 768.28, Florida Statutes, which provide for limited sovereign immunity of $200,000/$300,000 per occurrence can only be recovered through an act of the State Legislature. Property claims are subject to a 5 percent wind deductible and a $50,000 deductible for all other perils. The County retains the first $100,000 per claim/$200,000 per occurrence for public official errors and omissions and crime coverage and has purchased outside excess coverage for up to $5 million per claim. There have been no significant reductions in insurance coverage in the last year. Settled claims have not exceeded the insurance provided by third party carriers in any of the last three years. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 19 8. Risk Management (continued) The County is self-insured for health claims covering all of its employees and their eligible dependents. The County retains the first $400,000 per covered member and has purchased outside excess coverage for all claims exceeding this amount. An actuarial valuation is performed each year to estimate the amounts needed to pay prior and future claims and to establish reserves. 9. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan The Supervisor follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for postemployment benefits. Plan Description The SOE participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however, additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. The Supervisor provides no subsidy to the retiree, or their dependents, for group health care. Funding Policy The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Supervisor had a net OPEB obligation of $18,147 as of September 30, 2016. Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 20 9. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued) The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in November 2014. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other post-employment benefit plan as a whole. 10. Contingencies Grant funds received by the Supervisor are subject to audit by grantor agencies. Audits of these grants may result in disallowed costs, which may constitute a liability of the office of the Supervisor. In the opinion of management, disallowed costs, if any, would not have a significant impact on the financial position of the Supervisor. 11. Transfers Transfers between funds are for the purpose of providing matching funds to the Supervisor’s grants. Transfers were required in the amount of $4,727 for the year ending September 30, 2016. 21 CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections Collier County, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of each major fund of the Collier County, Florida Supervisor of Elections (Supervisor), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Supervisor’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 11, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Supervisor’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Supervisor’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Supervisor’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Honorable Jennifer J. Edwards Supervisor of Elections 22 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Supervisor’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Section 10.554(1)(i)3., Rules of the Auditor General, requires that we address noncompliance with provisions of contracts or grant agreements, or abuse, that have occurred, or are likely to have occurred, that have an effect on the financial statements that is less than material but which warrants the attention of those charged with governance.

Ray Tax Collector Collier County, Florida Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Tax Collector (Tax Collector), as of and for the years ended September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Tax Collector’s financial statements as listed in the table of contents. Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions. Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector 2 Opinions In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Tax Collector as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the respective changes in financial position for the years then ended and the budgetary comparison for the general fund thereof for the year ended September 30, 2016, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of Matter As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the financial statements referred to above were prepared solely for the purpose of complying with the Rules of the Auditor General of the State of Florida. In conformity with the Rules, the accompanying financial statements are intended to present the financial position and changes in financial position of each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information, only for that portion of the major funds, and the aggregate remaining fund information, of Collier County, Florida that is attributable to the Tax Collector. They do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of Collier County, Florida as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, and the changes in its financial position for the fiscal years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Management has omitted management’s discussion and analysis that accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such missing information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. Our opinion on the basic financial statement is not affected by this missing information. Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated January 5, 2017 on our consideration of the Tax Collector's internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters included under the heading Independent Auditors’ Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Tax Collector’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Reporting Entity The Tax Collector is an elected official of the County, pursuant to the Constitution of the State of Florida, Article VIII, Section 1(d). The Tax Collector is part of the primary government of the County. Although the Florida Department of Revenue approves the Tax Collector’s operating budget, the Tax Collector is responsible for the administration and the operation of the Tax Collector’s office. Upon approval, the operating budget is provided to the Collier County Board of County Commissioners (Board). The Tax Collector’s financial statements include only the funds of the Tax Collector’s office. There are no separate legal entities (component units) for which the Tax Collector is considered to be financially accountable. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Basis of Presentation These financial statements have been prepared for the purpose of complying with Section 218.39(2), Florida Statutes, and Chapter 10.550, Rules of the Auditor General – Local Governmental Entity Audits, which allows the Tax Collector to only present fund financial statements. These financial statements present only the portion of the funds of Collier County, Florida that are attributable to the Tax Collector. They are not intended to present fairly the financial position and results of operations of Collier County, Florida in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial activities of the Tax Collector, as a constitutional officer, are included in the Collier County, Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. These fund financial statements report detailed information about the Tax Collector. The focus of governmental fund financial statements is on major funds rather than reporting funds by type. Each major fund is reported in a separate column. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 8 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Governmental Funds Governmental funds are accounted for using the flow of current financial resources measurement focus. Only current assets and current liabilities, generally, are included on the balance sheets. Operating statements for these funds present increases (i.e., revenues and other financing sources) and decreases (i.e., expenditures and other financing uses) in net current assets. The Tax Collector’s only governmental fund is the general fund. The general fund is used to account for the general operations of the Tax Collector and includes all transactions not accounted for in another fund. The modified accrual basis of accounting is used by governmental funds. Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become measurable and available to finance liabilities of the current fiscal year). For this purpose, the Tax Collector considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Expenditures are recorded when the related fund liability is incurred, except for certain compensated absences, which are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured. Interest income and other revenue are recognized as they are earned and become measurable and available to pay liabilities of the current period. Substantially all of the Tax Collector’s revenue is received from taxing authorities. These monies are virtually unrestricted and are revocable only for failure to comply with prescribed compliance requirements. These resources are reflected as revenue at the time of receipt; earlier if the “susceptible to accrual” criteria are met. Florida Statutes provide that the amount by which revenues exceed annual expenditures be remitted to each governmental agency or the Board immediately following the fiscal year for which the funding was provided or following the fiscal year during which other revenue was recognized. Capital outlays expended in the general fund operations are capitalized in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida rather than in the governmental funds of the Tax Collector. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 9 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Fiduciary Funds Agency funds – Fiduciary funds are used to account for assets held by the Tax Collector in a trustee capacity or as an agent for individuals, private organizations, and other governments. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities), and do not involve measurement of results of operations or have a measurement focus. Agency funds are accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting. Refund of “Excess Fees” Florida Statutes further provide that the excess of revenues over expenditures held by the Tax Collector be distributed to each governmental agency or the Board in the same proportion as the fees paid by each governmental agency bear to total fee revenues. The amount of this distribution is recorded as a liability and as another financing use-transfer out in the accompanying financial statements. Compensated Absences All full-time employees of the Tax Collector are allowed to accumulate an unlimited number of hours of unused sick leave and up to 240 hours of unused vacation leave. Upon termination, employees receive 100% of allowable accumulated vacation hours and a percentage of unused sick leave, depending on years of service. Vacation and sick leave payments are included in operating costs of the general fund when the payments are made to the employees. The Tax Collector does not, nor is legally required to, accumulate financial resources for these unmatured obligations. Accordingly, the liability for compensated absences is not reported in the general fund of the Tax Collector, but rather is reported in the basic financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 10 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Property Taxes Property taxes in Collier County are levied by the Board and other taxing authorities. The millage levies are determined on the basis of estimates of revenue needs and the total taxable valuations within the jurisdiction of the Board and other taxing authorities. No aggregate ad valorem tax millage in excess of 10 mills on the dollar can be levied by the Board against property in the County as specified in Florida Statutes, Section 200.071. Each year the total taxable property valuation is established by the Collier County, Florida Property Appraiser, and the list of property assessments is submitted to the State Department of Revenue for approval. Taxes, assessed as of January 1 of each year, are due and payable on November 1 of each year or as soon thereafter as the assessment roll is opened for collection. Pursuant to Florida law, all owners of property have the responsibility of ascertaining the amount due and paying it before April 1 of the year following the year in which the tax was assessed. Chapter 197, Florida Statutes, governs property tax collections as follows: Current Taxes All property taxes become due and payable on November 1, and are delinquent on April 1 of the following year. Discounts are allowed for early payment of 4% in November; 3% in December; 2% in January; and 1% for payment in February. Unpaid Taxes – Sale of Tax Certificates The Tax Collector advertises, as required by Florida Statutes, and sells tax certificates on all real property for unpaid taxes. The taxes assessed on the property are struck off the tax roll to the purchaser of the tax certificate. Certificates not sold are struck off to the County. The Tax Collector must receive payment before the certificates are delivered. Any person owning land upon which a tax certificate has been sold may redeem the tax certificate by paying the Tax Collector the face amount of the tax certificate plus interest and other costs. Tax Deeds Two years after the purchase of a tax certificate the owner may file an application for tax deed sale. The County, as a certificate owner, exercises similar procedures. Tax deeds are issued to the highest bidder for the property which is sold at public auction. The Clerk of the Circuit Court administers these sales. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 11 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Use of Estimates The preparation of these financial statements requires management of the Tax Collector to make a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. 2. Budgetary Process Florida Statutes govern the preparation, adoption, and administration of the Tax Collector’s annual budget. The Tax Collector submits a budget for the general fund to the Florida Department of Revenue for approval. A copy of the approved budget is provided to the Board. Any subsequent amendments to the Tax Collector’s total budget must be approved by the Florida Department of Revenue. The budget for the general fund is prepared on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The annual budget serves as the legal authorization for expenditures. Expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations at the fund level. Appropriations lapse at year-end. Budget control is maintained at the departmental major object expenditure level. Budgetary changes within major object expenditure categories are made at the discretion of the Tax Collector. The original budget is the first complete appropriated budget. The final budget is the original budget adjusted by all reserves, transfers, allocations, supplemental appropriations, and other legally authorized changes applicable to the fiscal year, whenever legally authorized.

Under this Chapter, in the event of default by a participating financial institution (a qualified public depository), all participating institutions are obligated to reimburse the governmental entity for the loss. Credit Risk The Tax Collector’s policy is to follow the guidance in Section 219.075, Florida Statutes, regarding the deposit of funds received and the investment of surplus funds. Sections 219.075 and 218.415, Florida Statutes, authorize the Tax Collector to invest in Florida PRIME or any intergovernmental investment pool authorized pursuant to the Florida Interlocal Cooperation Act; Securities and Exchange Commission registered money market funds with the highest credit quality rating from a nationally recognized rating agency; direct obligations of the United States Treasury; federal agencies and instrumentalities or interest-bearing time deposits or savings accounts in banks organized under the laws of the United States and doing business and situated in the State of Florida, savings and loan associations which are under state supervision, or in federal savings and loan associations located in the state of Florida and organized under federal law and federal supervision, provided that any such deposits are secured by collateral as may be prescribed by law.

Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 15 6. Pension Plans Background The Florida Retirement System (FRS) was created by Chapter 121, Florida Statutes, to provide a defined benefit pension plan for participating public employees. The FRS was amended in 1998 to add the Deferred Retirement Option Program under the defined benefit plan and amended in 2000 to provide a defined contribution plan alternative to the defined benefit plan for FRS members effective July 1, 2002. This integrated defined contribution pension plan is the FRS Investment Plan. Chapter 112, Florida Statutes, established the Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy (HIS) Program, a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, to assist retired members of any State-administered retirement system in paying the costs of health insurance. Essentially all regular employees of the Tax Collector are eligible to enroll as members of the State-administered FRS. Provisions relating to the FRS are established by Chapters 121 and 122, Florida Statutes; Chapter 112, Part IV, Florida Statutes; Chapter 238, Florida Statutes; and FRS Rules, Chapter 60S, Florida Administrative Code; wherein eligibility, contributions, and benefits are defined and described in detail. Such provisions may be amended at any time by further action from the Florida Legislature. The FRS is a single retirement system administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement, and consists of the two cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plans and other nonintegrated programs. A comprehensive annual financial report of the FRS, which includes its financial statements, required supplementary information, actuarial report, and other relevant information, is available from the Florida Department of Management Services’ Web site (www.dms.myflorida.com). Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 16 6. Pension Plans (continued) Florida Retirement System Pension Plan Plan Description The Florida Retirement System Pension Plan (FRS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, with a Deferred Retirement Option Program (DROP) for eligible employees. The general classes of membership are as follows:  Regular Class – Members of the FRS who do not qualify for membership in the other classes.  Elected County Officers Class – Members who hold specified elective offices in local government.  Senior Management Service Class (SMSC) – Members in senior management level positions.  Special Risk Class – Members who are special risk employees, such as law enforcement officers, meet the criteria to qualify for this class. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan prior to July 1, 2011, vest at 6 years of creditable service and employees enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, vest at 8 years of creditable service. All vested members, enrolled prior to July 1, 2011, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 62 or at any age after 30 years of service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 55 or at any age after 25 years of service. All members enrolled in the FRS Plan on or after July 1, 2011, once vested, are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 65 or any time after 33 years of creditable service, except for members classified as special risk who are eligible for normal retirement benefits at age 60 or at any age after 30 years of service. Employees enrolled in the FRS Plan may include up to 4 years of credit for military service toward creditable service. The FRS Plan also includes an early retirement provision; however, there is a benefit reduction for each year a member retires before his or her normal retirement date. The FRS Plan provides retirement, disability, death benefits, and annual cost-of-living adjustments to eligible participants. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 17 6. Pension Plans (continued) DROP, subject to provisions of Section 121.091, Florida Statutes, permits employees eligible for normal retirement under the FRS Plan to defer receipt of monthly benefit payments while continuing employment with an FRS participating employer. An employee may participate in DROP for a period not to exceed 60 months after electing to participate, except that certain instructional personnel may participate for up to 96 months. During the period of DROP participation, deferred monthly benefits are held in the FRS Trust Fund and accrue interest. The net pension liability does not include amounts for DROP participants, as these members are considered retired and are not accruing additional pension benefits. Benefits Provided Benefits under the FRS Plan are computed on the basis of age and/or years of service, average final compensation, and service credit. Credit for each year of service is expressed as a percentage of the average final compensation. For members initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 5 highest fiscal years’ earnings; for members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, the average final compensation is the average of the 8 highest fiscal years’ earnings. The total percentage value of the benefit received is determined by calculating the total value of all service, which is based on the retirement class to which the member belonged when the service credit was earned. Members are eligible for in-line-of-duty or regular disability and survivors’ benefits. As provided in Section 121.101, Florida Statutes, if the member is initially enrolled in the FRS before July 1, 2011, and all service credit was accrued before July 1, 2011, the annual cost-of-living adjustment is 3 percent per year. If the member is initially enrolled before July 1, 2011, and has service credit on or after July 1, 2011, there is an individually calculated cost-of-living adjustment. The annual cost-of-living adjustment is a proportion of 3 percent determined by dividing the sum of the pre-July 2011 service credit by the total service credit at retirement multiplied by 3 percent. FRS Plan members initially enrolled on or after July 1, 2011, will not have a cost-of-living adjustment after retirement. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of FRS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 18 6. Pension Plans (continued) Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program Plan Description The Retiree Health Insurance Subsidy Program (HIS Plan) is a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan established under Section 112.363, Florida Statutes, and may be amended by the Florida Legislature at any time. The benefit is a monthly payment to assist retirees of State-administered retirement systems in paying their health insurance costs and is administered by the Florida Department of Management Services, Division of Retirement. Benefits Provided For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, eligible retirees and beneficiaries received a monthly HIS payment of $5 for each year of creditable service completed at the time of retirement, with a minimum HIS payment of $30 and a maximum HIS payment of $150 per month, pursuant to Section 112.363, Florida Statutes. To be eligible to receive a HIS Plan benefit, a retiree under a State-administered retirement system must provide proof of health insurance coverage, which may include Medicare. Detailed information about the County’s proportionate share of HIS’s net pension liability, deferred outflows/inflows of resources, and pension expense are reported in the government-wide statements of the County. FRS Investment Plan The Florida State Board of Administration (SBA) administers the defined contribution plan officially titled the FRS Investment Plan (Investment Plan). The Investment Plan is reported in the SBA’s annual financial statements and in the State of Florida Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 19 6. Pension Plans (continued) FRS Investment Plan (continued) As provided in Section 121.4501, Florida Statutes, eligible FRS members may elect to participate in the Investment Plan in lieu of the FRS defined benefit plan. Tax Collector employees participating in DROP are not eligible to participate in the Investment Plan. Employer and employee contributions, including amounts contributed to individual member’s accounts, are defined by law, but the ultimate benefit depends in part on the performance of investment funds. Benefit terms, including contribution requirements, for the Investment Plan are established and may be amended by the Florida Legislature. The Investment Plan is funded with the same employer and employee contribution rates that are based on salary and membership class (Regular Class, Elected County Officers, etc.), as the FRS defined benefit plan. Contributions are directed to individual member accounts, and the individual members allocate contributions and account balances among various approved investment choices. Costs of administering plan, including the FRS Financial Guidance Program, are funded through an employer contribution of 0.06 percent of payroll and by forfeited benefits of plan members. For all membership classes, employees are immediately vested in their own contributions and are vested after 1 year of service for employer contributions and investment earnings. If an accumulated benefit obligation for service credit originally earned under the FRS Pension Plan is transferred to the Investment Plan, the member must have the years of service required for FRS Pension Plan vesting (including the service credit represented by the transferred funds) to be vested for these funds and the earnings on the funds. Non-vested employer contributions are placed in a suspense account for up to 5 years. If the employee returns to FRS-covered employment within the 5-year period, the employee will regain control over their account. If the employee does not return within the 5-year period, the employee will forfeit the accumulated account balance. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2016, the information for the amount of forfeitures was unavailable from the SBA; however, management believes that these amounts, if any, would be immaterial to the Tax Collector. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 20 6. Pension Plans (continued) After termination and applying to receive benefits, the member may rollover vested funds to another qualified plan, structure a periodic payment under the Investment Plan, receive a lump-sum distribution, leave the funds invested for future distribution, or any combination of these options. Disability coverage is provided; the member may either transfer the account balance to the FRS Pension Plan when approved for disability retirement to receive guaranteed lifetime monthly benefits under the FRS Pension Plan, or remain in the Investment Plan and rely upon that account balance for retirement income. Contributions Participating employer contributions are based upon statewide rates established by the State of Florida. The Tax Collector’s contributions made to the plans during the years ended September 30, 2016, 2015, and 2014 were $606,522, $598,808, and $545,011, respectively, equal to the actuarially determined contribution requirements for each year. Additional information about pension plans can be found in the County’s comprehensive annual financial report or County-wide financial statements. 7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan The Tax Collector follows GASB Statement 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits other than Pensions in accounting for postemployment benefits. Plan Description  The Tax Collector participates in a group health care plan that covers eligible retirees, and their dependents, of the Board and all Constitutional Officers with the exception of the Sheriff. The Board administers the plan and establishes the benefits. The healthcare plan does not issue a stand-alone financial report; however additional actuarial information regarding the plan as a whole is disclosed in the notes to the financial statements of Collier County, Florida. Collier County, Florida Tax Collector Notes to Financial Statements September 30, 2016 and 2015 21 7. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits (OPEB) Plan (continued) Under Florida Statutes, retirees originally hired prior to July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 62 and have 6 years of service or have at least 30 years of service. Employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 are eligible to participate in the active medical plan by paying the active rate if they have attained age 65 and have 8 years of service or have at least 33 years of service. Employees eligible for a reduced benefit under the Florida Retirement System prior to age 62 (65 years of age if hired on or after July 1, 2011) are also eligible to participate in the medical plan. In addition, the Tax Collector provides a 100% subsidy for retirees between the ages of 55 and 65 with more than 10 years of service and 800 hours of accumulated sick leave to remit at the time of retirement for employees hired prior to June 1, 2015. Funding Policy The contribution requirements of the plan members and the employers are established and may be amended by the County. The plans are financed by the participating agencies on a pay as you go basis through the County’s self insurance internal service fund. Participating agencies contribute an additional amount per each active employee to fund retiree health care. The Tax Collector had a net OPEB obligation of $10,638 and $13,851 as of September 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The annual other postemployment benefit cost is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with GASB Statement 45. The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid by on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each year and amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. An actuarial valuation on the plan as a whole was performed in October 1, 2015. The notes to the financial statements of the County disclose additional information regarding the other postemployment benefit plan as a whole.

CliftonLarsonAllen LLP CLAconnect.com  25 INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector Collier County, Florida We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements of the general fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the Collier County, Florida Tax Collector (Tax Collector), as of and for the year ended September 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Tax Collector’s financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated January 5, 2017. Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Tax Collector’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Tax Collector’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Tax Collector’s internal control. A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. Honorable Larry H. Ray Tax Collector    26 Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Tax Collector’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the result of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Tax Collector’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the Tax Collector’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.
