INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Board of Commissioners
North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District
1885 Veterans Park Drive
Naples, Florida 34109-0492
We have audited the accompanying basic financial statements of North Naples Fire Control and
Rescue District(the "District") as of September 30, 2012 and for the year then ended. These
basic financial statements are the responsibility of the District's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these basic financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the
financial statements of North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District Firefighters' Pension Fund
("Pension Fund"), which represent 100% of the assets, liabilities and net assets as well as 100% of
the revenue and expenses of the District's Fiduciary Fund. Those financial statements were
_ audited by other auditors whose report thereon has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar
as it relates to the amounts included for North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District
Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund, is based on the report of the other auditors.
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 of America. Those
Standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
_ whether the basic financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the basic financial
statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall basic financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the basic financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of North Naples Fire
_ Control and Rescue District as of September 30, 2012, and the results of its operations for the
year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
February 14, 2013, on our consideration of the District's internal control over financial reporting and
our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, grants, and other
matters. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of the internal control
over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an
opinion on the internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral
part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards, and should be
considered in assessing the results of our audit.
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management's discussion and analysis (MD&A) on pages i-viii 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
information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our
inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the
basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the
information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express
an opinion or provide any assurance.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
that collectively comprise the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District's financial statements.
The required supplementary information other than MD&A - budgetary comparison information is
_ presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial
statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and
relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial
statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of
the basic financial statement 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 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 required supplementary infoimation other than MD&A-
budgetary comparison information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial
statements as a whole.

- MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS
(MD&A)
Management's Discussion and Analysis
of Financial Statements FYE September 30,2012
This Discussion and Analysis of the North Naples Fire Control &Rescue District's ("The
District") basic financial statements is provided to assist the reader in understanding the
District's financial activities and significant changes in ending financial position for the
— fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. The District implemented the requirements of
GASB Statement#34 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2004. This Statement
dramatically changed the District's annual reporting requirements, as well as the financial
statement format and presentation.
Contained within are the basic financial statements, consisting of the government-wide
financial statements, governmental fund financial statements and notes to the financial
— statements. This Discussion and Analysis will also provide an analytical overview of
these statements, including comparisons of the District's financial position at September
30, 2012 versus September 30, 2011.
District Highlights
1. At the conclusion of fiscal year 2012, the District's assets exceeded its liabilities,
— resulting in net assets of$33,679,420 as compared to net assets at September 30,
2011 of$34,187,500.
2. The District's total net assets decreased $508,080 during fiscal year 2012, as
compared to a decrease of$2,970,305 in total net assets during fiscal year 2011.
3. The District had $11,081,782 of unrestricted net assets at September 30, 2012,
— that can be used to meet the District's ongoing obligations, as compared to
$11,193,272 at September 30, 2011. The amount of unrestricted net assets
— decreased by $111,490.
4. Total revenues on the government-wide funds basis decreased, $572,794 or 2
percent, in comparison to the prior year.
5. Total expenses on the government-wide basis decreased $3,035,019, or 11
percent, in comparison to the prior year.
Government-wide Financial Statements
— Government-wide financial statements (Statement of Net Assets and Statement of
Activities found on pages 4 and 5) are intended to allow a reader to assess a
government's operational accountability. Operational accountability is defined as the
extent to which the government has met its operating objectives efficiently and
effectively, using all resources available for that purpose, and whether it can continue to
— meet its objectives for the foreseeable future. Government-wide financial statements
concentrate on the District as a whole and do not emphasize fund types.
The Statement of Net Assets (page 4)presents information on all of the District's assets
and liabilities, with the difference between the two reported as net assets. The District's
capital assets are included in this statement and reported net of their accumulated
depreciation.
The Statement of Activities (page 5)presents revenue and expense information showing
— how the District's net assets changed during the fiscal year. Both statements are
measured and reported using the economic resource measurement focus (revenues and
BJB/bb 3-25-13 i
expenses) and the accrual basis of accounting (revenue recognized when earned and
expense recognized when incurred).
Governmental Fund Financial Statements
The accounts of the District are organized on the basis of governmental funds, each of
which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are
accounted for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets,
liabilities, fund equity or retained earnings, revenues and expenditures. Government
resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose
for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.
Governmental fund financial statements (found on pages 6 and 8) are prepared on the
modified accrual basis using the current financial resources measurement focus. Under
-- the modified accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when they become
measurable and available as net current assets.
_ Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes to the financial statements explain in detail some of the data contained in the
preceding statements and begin on page 12. These notes are essential to a full
understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.
Government-Wide Financial Analysis
The government-wide financial statements are designed so that the user can determine if
the District's financial condition is better or worse than the prior year.
The following is a Condensed Summary Statement of Net Assets for the District
(Primary Government) at September 30,2012 and 2011:

The assessed value of the property within the District decreased 3 percent for the 2011-
2012 fiscal year as compared to the prior year's assessed value, resulting in a decrease in
Ad Valorem tax revenues. This is the fourth consecutive year that property values in the
District have decreased, resulting in a decrease in Ad Valorem revenue. The cumulative
reduction in property value for the 2008-2009, 2009-2010, 2010-2011 and 2011-2012
fiscal years resulted in a $5,505,981,773 reduction in taxable property value, and a 20
percent reduction in Ad Valorem revenue. The Board adopted a millage rate of 1 mil, or
$1.00 for every$1,000 of property value. This millage rate was 4 percent less than the
rolled back rate, or the taxing rate necessary to generate the same Ad Valorem revenue as
the 2010-2011 fiscal year. Because the District is capped at a maximum millage rate of 1
mil,the Board could not adopt the rolled back rate.
Historically,the increase in Ad Valorem revenue resulting from the increase in property
value has been sufficient to provide adequate funds to support operational, capital and
-- reserve financial requirements in the District without increasing the millage rate.
However, the 2011-2012 General Fund Budget reflects a decrease in Ad Valorem
revenue corresponding to the decrease in property value. As a result, it was anticipated
that reserves in the amount of$1,432,457 would be required to fund operations.
However, General Fund actual expenditures were less than those budgeted and revenue
was more than that budgeted; therefore, use of reserves was $174,944 which was
significantly less than originally anticipated.
The following chart identifies the change in appraised property values in the District and
the millage rate maintained by the District.

Fund Balance–Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Staff has worked hard to meet the Board of Fire Commissioners' directive to maintain the
fund balance and cash reserve of the General Fund to solidify the District's financial
position. The total fund balance of the General Fund, 100 percent of which is assigned
— reserves, was $13,751,629 at September 30, 2012. This fund balance represents a
decrease of$174,944 in the total fund balance of the General Fund at September 30,
— 2011.
In September of 2002, a comprehensive Five Year Plan for the District was developed.
This plan is reviewed and revised annually,just prior to preparation of the District's
annual budget. The Five Year Plan has become an integral tool to assist in the
— identification of the financial needs for the future of the District, and as such, has assisted
the Board of Fire Commissioners in establishing comprehensive assigned reserves to
— financially provide for the identified needs of the District.
The fund balance of$13,751,629 for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, is
comprised of 100 percent of assigned reserves. In light of the current and forecasted
economic trends and accompanying decrease in property value, the Board has established
— assigned reserves identified as necessary to fund operational activities of the District in
future years. These assigned reserves were created in an effort to address anticipated
revenue reductions in the 2012-2013 and 2013-2014 fiscal years.
Other reserves are assigned to accommodate the future financial needs of the District as
identified in the Five Year Plan as amended in September of 2012. While assigned
reserves have been established and maintained in accordance with anticipated future
— needs of the District, it must be noted that the need may arise for the Board to unassign a
portion of these reserves to fund the District's operations should property values continue
to fall. The following General Fund Assigned Reserves were approved for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 2012, in coordination with the Five Year Plan and as a result of the
anticipated reduction in future General Fund Ad Valorem revenue:
Assigned Fund Balance Amount
— Operating Reserve–First Quarter $ 6,500,000
Projected Deficit 12-13 2,000,000
2013-2014 Expenses over Revenue 1,546,460
ALS Equipment 226,344
Emergency Reserve 2,223,330
— Fire Apparatus 1,074,595
SCBA Replacement 160,000
— Station#46 Improvements 20,900
Total Assigned Reserves S13,751,629
These assigned reserves have been established by the Board of Fire Commissioners to
—. meet the future needs of the District. As indicated in the District's Five Year Plan, one
new station is anticipated to be operational within the next five years, with funds
— allocated to initial permitting and planning expenditures for three other stations. Due to
the recent and dramatic decline in impact fees, and the anticipated revenue reduction
BJB/bb 3-25-13 V
resulting from decreasing property values, the Five Year Plan was revised to delay the
— construction in full on these three other stations. While impact fees can fund the creation
of the infrastructure required for these stations,the staffing and maintenance must be
funded by the General Fund. These assigned reserves are also created to fund the
replacement of capital assets originally funded through impact fees.
— Additionally, significant increases in health insurance, and other personnel and operating
expenses require that funds be set aside, or assigned, to prepare for the funding of future
— expenditures. This is especially necessary in light of the current economic situation and
_ the impact of the decline in property values statewide, and the resulting revenue reduction
resulting from such decline.
As evidenced by the chart below, the District's General Fund fund balance has increased
— $13,268,549 since 2002. While the growth in fund balance is significant, it is by no
means an unnecessarily high accumulation of funds. Not only has it become evident that
the District must be able to provide for operating and personnel expenses in the event of a
serious hurricane or other natural disaster, it has become essential for future planning to
ensure the financial stability of the District by increasing designated reserves to provide
for the future needs of the District in anticipation of revenue reductions. It is also
designed to allow for replacement of capital assets without a planned increase in millage.
— It should also be noted that the 2011-2012 fiscal year General Fund utilized $174,944 of
reserves to fund operations during the fiscal year due to the decline in property value and
accompanying decrease in Ad Valorem revenue. This is the second year since 2001 that
the District had to use reserves to fund operations. While significant reserves still
remain, it is by no means sustainable to continue to rely on reserves to fund operations.

Impact Fees
_ Actual impact fees received for the year ended September 30, 2012 was $360,328, a
decrease of$36,925, or 9 percent, as compared to the prior fiscal year. However, because
of the decline in impact fees over the course of the last few fiscal years, the amount
received exceeded budgeted impact fees by $60,328, or 20 percent. Staff continues to
conservatively estimate impact fee revenue for future years and limit planned impact fee
expenditures due to the trend in declining revenue.
The Board of Fire Commissioners recognized that the growth in the District was
significant in the late 1990s and early 2000s, and anticipated the District would reach a
point where the growth and resulting impact fees would substantially decrease.
Therefore, the Five Year Plan has reflected decreasing impact fees. However, the decline
in impact fees occurred much quicker and at a more substantial rate than originally
anticipated. As a result,the Five Year Plan has been amended to reflect the reduction in
receipts.
BJB/bb 3-25-13 Vii
_ Inspection Fees
Inspection fee revenue for the year ended September 30, 2012 was $428,911 and
represents a decrease of$73,396 or 15 percent as compared to revenue in the prior fiscal
year, as compared to an increase of$11,035, or 2 percent over the inspection fee revenue
for fiscal year 2011 vs. 2010. These inspection fees are received by the District for
inspections performed on new construction, and are therefore a function of the number of
new structures built and completed in the District. Following three consecutive years of
_ decreasing inspection fee fund receipts, the 2009-2010 fiscal year was the first year to
recognize an increase in inspection fees revenue since the fiscal year ended September
30, 2006. The trend continued in the fiscal year ended 2011, with inspection fees
received increasing as compared to the prior fiscal year, but then again declined in 2012.
The overall reduction in fees since 2006 has resulted in the inability of the revenues of
the fund to support the full operating budget. As a result, the General Fund has provided
financial assistance to support the Inspection Fee Fund. This fund will continue to
require close monitoring in the future to determine if the General Fund will be required to
continue to provide financial assistance to support the Inspection Fee Fund operating
costs.
Budgetary Highlights
Budget versus actual comparisons are reported in the required supplementary information
other than management's discussion and analysis on pages 55 through 63. General Fund
expenditures were less than those budgeted, with Personnel Expenditures reflecting
$1,140,162 or 6 percent less than budgeted, Operating Expenditures reflecting $88,715 or
3 percent less than budgeted, and Capital Outlay reflecting $16,785 or 10 percent less
than budgeted. Differences between the final amended budget and actual expenditures in
the General Fund were largely due to fewer non-essential purchases being made, and the
serious effort exerted to control expenditures as tightly as possible faced with current and
anticipated decrease in property (Ad Valorem) tax revenue.
The amendments to General Fund revenue were necessary to reflect an increase in Ad
Valorem tax revenue received resulting in collection above the 95 percent subject to
budget requirements and to reflect a reduction in interest revenue earned due to the
decline in interest rates available on the District's Certificates of Deposit.
The amendments to the General Fund expenditures were a result of several factors.
Budgeted personnel expenses were decreased by $69,000 due to a reduction in
operational overtime resulting from the hiring of three replacement firefighters to address
staffing shortages and offset overtime expenditures. Budgeted capital expenses were
increased by $69,000 to reflect the required but unanticipated replacement of bunker gear
which failed safety inspection. It should be noted that amendments to reallocate General
Fund expenditures resulted in no increase to expenses, and actual General Fund
expenditures were still $1.2 million under budget.

Debt Administration
As of September 30, 2012, the District had long term obligations of$2,669,847, as
compared to $2,820,261 at September 30, 2011, a decrease of$150,414 or 5 percent.
That debt consists of:
1. Compensated absences (accrued vacation liability) in the amount of$1,917,976,
as compared to $1,602,209 at September 30, 2011. The increase in this liability is
due to hourly rate changes resulting from promotions to replace vacated positions
due to retirements and the Early Retirement Incentive programs, and a Collective
Bargaining Agreement one year provision providing paid days off.
2. Termination benefits in the amount of $112,333, as compared to $777,131 at
September 30, 2011. These termination benefits consist of health, dental and
vision insurance benefits through 2012 for those employees participating in the
District's first early retirement incentive program, and health insurance benefits
payable in 2012, 2013 and 2014 related to the second early retirement incentive
program.
3. OPEB obligation of$639,538, representing post employment health insurance
obligations pursuant to GASB No. 45.
Economic Facts and Next Year's Budget Millage Rates
The following factors were taken into consideration when the budget for the fiscal year
ending September 30, 2013 was prepared:
1. Appraised taxable property values increased by $68,433,215, or less than 1
percent for tax year 2012 (FY2013) as compared to a decrease of 3 percent in
2011. This is the first year since the multi-year decline in taxable property value
that the property value in the District has increased, although only slightly. The
cumulative effect of the last five years' property value has resulted in an
anticipated reduction in Ad Valorem revenue of approximately $6.6 million, or 23
percent since 2008. Staff did not anticipate any increase in taxable property value
for the 2012-2013 fiscal year and, under the Board's direction, has worked hard to
control expenditures and maintain the level of service without depleting reserves.
Preliminary estimates indicate the property value in Collier County is expected to
increase at least 3 percent for the 2013 year. Historically, the District has faired
far better than the County as a whole, so it is anticipated that new growth within
the District will offset any decline in property value, so value should either remain
BJB/bb 3-25-13 x
unchanged in a worse-case scenario for the 2013-2014 fiscal year, or might even
realize up to a 3 percent increase in a best case scenario. The District must
continue to consider ways to fund operating expenses without reducing the level
of service and without depleting reserves. Staff will continue to monitor financial
projections to provide the Board with current and updated information regarding
the future financial needs of the District.
2. The District did not increase its millage rate from 1 mill ($1.00 for each $1,000
of appraised property value) for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. The
rolled-back millage rate, that is, the rate that would need to be levied to generate
the same revenue for the 2012-2013 fiscal year as was generated during the 2011-
2012 fiscal year, was not levied because it exceeded the maximum millage rate
the District is authorized to levy pursuant to its enabling act. The District's
millage cap, combined with declining property values, makes it impossible to
generate the same revenue as in prior years. Therefore,the District must fund
operations with less revenue, while continuing to attempt to maintain service
levels.
3. The District had planned to open Stations #48, #49, #410 and#411 within the
next two to five years. However, due to the reduction in revenue resulting from
the anticipated and realized decline in property value, and the reduction in impact
fees received, all construction of new station sites, except for the site preparation
for Station#48, has been halted.
4. No new positions are provided for in the General Fund Budget for 2012-2013.
Thirteen employees participated in the early retirement incentive program
established by the Board for the 2008-2009 fiscal year, resulting in 9 shift
positions being vacated. An additional seven employees participated in a second
early retirement incentive program offered between August 1, 2010 and July 31,
2011. This resulted in an additional 5 shift positions being vacated. In May of
2011, three replacement firefighters were hired to address the 14 shift positions
vacated as a result of the two early retirement incentive programs. In August of
2012,three more replacement firefighters were hired, and another three in
November of 2012 to address another three vacancies resulting from retirements.
Staff continues to monitor the cost benefit of overtime versus filling replacement
positions .
5. Capital purchases have been limited to only those essential items, including the
replacement of fire equipment as needed in the total amount of$25,000, the
purchase of replacement protective equipment in the amount of$51,697, the
replacement of computers for the apparatus used to provide call response
information in the total amount of$15,000, and station improvements in the
amount of$20,000.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
September 30, 2012
NOTE A- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization
North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District (the "District") is an independent
special taxing district located in northern Collier County, Florida. The District was
originally established on April 22, 1961 by Laws of Florida, Chapter 61-2032, then
reestablished by Laws of Florida Chapter 84-416, as amended. The District has the
general and special powers prescribed by Florida Statute Chapters 189, 191 and
633.15. The District's governing legislation was recreated, reenacted and codified by
Laws of Florida, Chapter 99-450 on July 13, 1999 and amended by Laws of
Florida, Chapter 2006-353 on June 23, 2006. The District is governed by a five (5)
member elected Board of Commissioners. Commissioners serve on a staggered four
(4) year term basis.
The District provides fire control and protection services, fire safety, inspections,
code enforcement, fire hydrant maintenance, firefighter training, and crash and fire
rescue services as well as basic life support services. In providing these services, the
District operates and maintains seven (7) stations and the related equipment and
employs approximately 145 full-time professional firefighters and administrative staff
During the year ended September 30, 2009, the District entered into a joint venture
agreement with Edison State College (ESC) for the operation of the North Naples
Fire Training Center(NNFTC) to educate and train students as State Certified
Firefighters. The District is licensed to operate the NNFTC and ESC is the program
coordinator. The District provides the training room and training facilities for the
NNFTC. ESC, as program coordinator, is responsible for the operations of the
NNFTC including but not limited to the screening and enrolling of students and for
screening and engaging instructors. Therefore, the activities of the NNFTC are not
included in the District's basic financial statements.
Reporting Entity
The District adheres to Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB)
Statement Number 14, "Financial Reporting Entity," (GASB 14) as amended by
GASB Statement Number 39, "Determining Whether Certain Organizations Are
Component Units" (GASB 39). This Statement requires the basic financial
statements of the District (the primary government)to include its component units, if
any. A component unit is a legally separate organization for which the elected
officials of the primary government are financially accountable. Based on the criteria
established in GASB 14, as amended, there are no component units required to be
included in the District's basic financial statements.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the Statement of Net Assets and the
Statement of Activities)report information on all of the activities of the District and do
— not emphasize fund types. These governmental activities comprise the primary
government. General governmental and intergovernmental revenues support the
governmental activities. The purpose of the government-wide financial statements is
_ to allow the user to be able to determine if the District is in a better or worse financial
position than the prior year. The effect of all interfund activity between governmental
funds has been removed from the government-wide financial statements.
— Government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources
measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting, as are the pension fund
financial statements. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues, expenses,
—' gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like
transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place. Revenues, expenses,
gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from nonexchange transactions are
recognized in accordance with the requirements of GASB Statement Number 33,
"Accounting and Financial Reporting for Nonexchange Transactions" (GASB 33).
Amounts paid to acquire capital assets are capitalized as assets in the
government-wide financial statements rather than reported as expenditures.
Proceeds of long-term debt are recorded as liabilities in the government-wide
financial statements rather than as other financing sources. Amounts paid to reduce
long-term indebtedness of the reporting government are reported as a reduction of
the related liability in the government-wide financial statements rather than as
expenditures.
The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of
a given function are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are
clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: 1)
charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from
goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function, and 2) grants and
— contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital improvements of
a particular function. Taxes and other items not properly included among program
— revenues are reported instead as general revenues.

NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Government-wide Financial Statements, continued
Program revenues are considered to be revenues generated by services performed
and/or by fees charged such as inspection fees, burn permits, and hydrant tests.
Fund Financial Statements
The District adheres to GASB Number 54, "Fund Balance Reporting and
Governmental Fund Type Definitions" that required a change in the reporting format
of fund balances in the governmental fund statements. Essentially, the implementation
resulted in adoption of a fund balance policy and reclassification of the components
within fund balance.
The accounts of the District are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is
considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted
for with a separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities,
fund equity or retained earnings,revenues, and expenditures or expenses, as
appropriate. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual
funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by
which spending activities are controlled.
Fund financial statements for the District's governmental and fiduciary funds are
presented after the government-wide financial statements. These statements display
information about major funds individually and nonmajor funds in aggregate for
governmental funds. The fiduciary statement includes financial information for the
firefighters' pension fund. The fiduciary fund represents assets held by the District in
a custodial capacity for the benefit of other individuals.
Governmental Funds
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are combined in a fund,
expenditures are considered to be paid first from restricted resources, as appropriate,
and then from unrestricted resources. Governmental fund financial statements are
reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are considered to be available when they are
collected within the current period or soon thereafter to pay liabilities of the current
period.

September 30, 2012
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Governmental Funds, continued
The District's major funds are presented in separate columns on the governmental
fund financial statements. The definition of a major fund is one that meets certain
criteria set forth in GASB Statement Number 34, "Basic Financial Statements - and
Management's Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local Governments" (GASB
34). The funds that do not meet the criteria of a major fund are considered
non-major funds and are combined into a single column on the governmental fund
financial statements.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds. Major individual
governmental funds are reported in separate columns on the fund financial statements.
Fiduciary Fund
The pension trust fund accounts for the activities of the Firefighters' Pension Plan,
— which accumulates resources for the pension benefit payments to qualified firefighters.
The net assets of this fund are not considered to be net assets of the District and not
available to the District's creditors.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are
recognized in the accounts and reported in the basic financial statements. Basis of
accounting relates to the timing of the measurements made, regardless of the
measurement focus applied.
The government-wide financial statements are reported 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. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year
for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon
as all eligibility requirements have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial
resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting.
Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available.

September 30,2012
NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, CONTINUED
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting, continued
Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current
period and soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this
purpose,the District considers tax revenues to be available if they are collected
within sixty days of the end of the current fiscal period.
Revenues susceptible to accrual are property taxes, interest on investments, and
intergovernmental revenues. Property taxes are recorded as revenues in the fiscal
year in which they are levied, provided they are collected in the current period or
within sixty days thereafter. Interest on invested funds is recognized when earned.
Intergovernmental revenues that are reimbursements for specific purposes or projects
are recognized when all eligibility requirements are met.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting
when the related fund liability is incurred. Exceptions to this general rule include: (1)
principal and interest on long-term debt, if any, is recognized when due; and (2)
expenditures are generally not divided between years by the recording of prepaid
expenditures.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the
District's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they
are needed.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and fiduciary
funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial
statements.
Non-current Government Assets/Liabilities
GASB 34 requires non-current governmental assets, such as land and buildings, and
non-current governmental liabilities, such as notes payable and capital leases, to be
reported in the governmental activities column in the government-wide Statement of
Net Assets.

Major Funds
The District reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the District's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial

Investments
The District adheres to the requirements of GASB Statement Number 31,
"Accounting and Financial Reporting for Certain Investments and for External
Investment Pools," (GASB 31) in which all investments are reported at fair value.
-- Investments, including restricted investments, consist of certificates of deposit, U.S.
Government securities, corporate debt and equity securities, and securities of
government agencies unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. Government.
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include land, construction in progress, buildings, equipment and
-- vehicles, are reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
The District follows a capitalization policy which calls for capitalization of all capital
-- assets that have a cost or donated value of$1,000 or more and have a useful life in
excess of one year.
All 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 market value on the date donated. Public domain (infrastructure) capital assets
consisting of certain improvements other than building, including curbs, gutters and
drainage systems, are not capitalized, as the District generally does not acquire such
-- assets. No debt-related interest expense is capitalized as part of capital assets in
accordance with GASB 34.
Maintenance, repairs and minor renovations are not capitalized. The acquisition of
land and construction projects utilizing resources received from Federal and State
agencies are capitalized when the related expenditure is incurred.
Expenditures that materially increase values, change capacities or extend useful lives
-- are capitalized. Upon sale or retirement, the cost is eliminated from the respective
accounts.

Budgets and Budgetary Accounting, continued
The District follows these procedures in establishing budgetary data for the General
-- Fund,the Impact Fee Fund, and the Inspection Fee Fund:
-- 1. During the summer of each year, the District Fire Chief submits to the Board of
Commissioners a proposed operating budget for the fiscal year commencing on
the upcoming October 1. The operating budget includes proposed
-- expenditures and the means of financing them.
2. Public hearings are conducted to obtain citizen comments.
3. The budget is adopted by approval of the Board of Commissioners.
4. Budget amounts, as shown in these basic financial statements, are as originally
adopted or as amended by the Board of Commissioners.
-- 5. The budget is adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
6. The level of control for appropriations is exercised at the fund level.
7. Appropriations lapse at year-end.
Several budget amendments were approved by the Board of Commissioners during
the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 for the General Fund. Budgeted revenues
—' and reserves in the General Fund were increased by $831,777. No budget
amendments were approved for the Impact Fee Fund or for the Inspection Fee Fund.
-- Impact Fees/Deferred Revenue
The District levies an impact fee on new construction within the District. The intent of
the fee is for growth within the District to pay for capital improvements needed due to
the growth. The fee is imposed and collected by Collier County and remitted to the
District. The fee is refundable if not expended by the District within six (6)years from
the date of collection. The District, therefore, records this fee as restricted cash and
-- deferred revenue until the date of expenditure, at which time it is recognized as
revenue and charged to capital outlay in the fund financial statements and capital
assets in the government-wide financial statements.

Net Assets
In governmental fund statements net assets are identified as restricted when there are
-- externally imposed constraints as to their use, such as through debt covenants, by
grantors, or by law.
Fund Balances
-- The governmental fund financial statements the District maintains include
nonspendable, restricted, assigned, and unassigned fund balances. Nonspendable
-- fund balances are those that cannot be spent because the are either (a) not in
spendable form or(b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Criteria include items that are not expected to be converted into cash, for example
prepaid expenses.
Restricted fund balances are those that are restricted by a third party. Restricted fund
-- balances can only be spent for the stipulated purposes.
The District's assigned fund balances are a result of the actions of the District's Board.
The District's intent is to maintain a minimum assigned fund balance level of three(3)
months of budgeted total expenditures. The assigned fund balance includes the
-- District's operational and capital reserves as well as its disaster reserve. At
September 30, 2012, fund balance is also assigned for a variety of specific items by
District Board action. Any use of the assigned fund balance requires the District's
-- Board approval.
Due To/From Other Funds
-- Interfund receivables and payables arise from interfund transactions and are recorded
by funds affected in the period in which the transactions are executed.
-- Due From Other Governments
-- No allowance for losses on uncollectible accounts has been recorded since the
District considers all amounts to be fully collectible.

Compensated Absences
The District's employees accumulate annual leave based on the number of years of
-- continuous service. Upon termination of employment, employees can receive
payment of accumulated annual leave if certain criteria are met. The costs of
accumulated annual leave benefits (compensated absences) are expended in the
-- respective operating funds when payments are made to employees. However, the
liability for all accrued vacation and personal leave benefits is recorded in the
government-wide Statement of Net Assets.
Encumbrances
Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other
-- commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded in order to reserve that
portion of the applicable appropriation, is not employed by the District because, at
present, it is not necessary in order to assure effective budgetary control or to
-- facilitate effective cash planning and control.
Management Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities and
-- disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements,
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Interfund Transactions
The District considers interfund receivables (due from other funds) and interfund
-- payables (due to other funds)to be loan transactions to and from other funds to cover
temporary (three months or less) cash needs. Transactions that constitute
reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it that are
-- properly applicable to another fund are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the
reimbursing funds and as reduction of expenditures/expenses in the fund that is
reimbursed. Such amounts are eliminated in the Government-wide Financial
__ Statements.

The Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund accounts for resources held to fund the
respective firefighter employee pension benefits.
The Firefighters' Pension Trust Fund investments were held by a financial and
investment institution and are subject to certain insurances up to limits specific to the
trustee/custodian institution and retirement trust funds. These assets are subject to
loss of principal.
Investment Authorization:
The Plan's investment policy is determined by the Plan's Board of Trustees. The
policy has been designed by the Board to conduct the operations of the Plan in a
manner so that the assets will provide the pension and other benefits provided under
applicable laws. As such,the policy is designed by the Board to maximize the Plan's
asset value, while assuming risk that is consistent with the Board's risk tolerance. The
Trustees are authorized to acquire and retain every kind of property (real, personal or
mixed) and every kind of investment specifically including, but not by way of
limitation, money markets, mutual funds, bonds, debentures, stocks (preferred or
common) and other corporate obligations. Investments are carried at fair value at
September 30, 2012. Interest and dividend revenues are recorded as earned.
Purchases and sales of investments are recorded on the trade-date basis.
Unrealized gains and losses are presented as net appreciation (depreciation) in fair
value of investments on the statement of changes in plan net assets along with gains
and losses realized on sales of investments.
Given the inherent nature of investments, it is reasonably possible that changes in the
value of those investments will occur in the near term and that such changes could
materially affect the amounts reported (loss of principal) in the statement of plan net
assets.
Investment in all equity securities shall be limited to those listed on a major U.S. stock
exchange and limited to no more than 70% (at market) of the Plan's total asset
value. The equity position in any one company shall not exceed 5% of the Plan's total
assets at market. Investments in stock of foreign companies shall be limited to 25%
of the value of the Plan's total assets at market.

Interest Rate Risk:
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market interest rates will adversely
affect the fair value of an investment. Generally,the longer the maturity of an
investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to change in market interest
rates. As a means of limiting its exposure to interest rate risk, the Plan diversifies its
investments by security type and institution, and limits holdings in any one type of
investment with any one issuer with various durations of maturities.
Information about the sensitivity of the fair values of the Plan's fixed income
investments to market interest rate fluctuations is provided by the following table that

Foreign Currency Risk:
This is the risk that fluctuations in currency exchange rate may affect transactions
conducted in currencies other than US Dollars and the carrying value of foreign

international equity funds and does not own the individual securities. The investment
policy limits the foreign investments to no more than 25% of the Fund's investment
balance in equities and no more than 10% in fixed income. As of September 30,

The following brief description of the North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District
Firefighters' Pension Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes
only. Participants should refer to the plan agreement for a more complete description
of the Plan. On July 11, 1996, under the authority of Florida Statute 175 and Laws
of Florida, Chapter 95-338, the District's Board of Commissioners passed
Resolutions 96-004 and 96-005,providing for the establishment and funding of a
single employer defined benefit retirement plan and trust for newly hired fire
suppression personnel. The resolutions establish that certified firefighters hired
on or after January 1, 1996 are to become participants in the District's Firefighters'
Pension Trust Fund. The Plan is totally administered, including all investment
_ management, by a third party administrator and the Plan's appointed Pension Board.
During the year ended September 30, 2009,the Plan adopted Governmental
Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement Number 50 "Pension Disclosures"
(GASB 50)which amends GASB Statements Number 25 "Financial Reporting for
Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Note Disclosures for Defined Contribution Plans",
and Number 27 "Accounting for Pensions by State and Local Government
Employers". GASB 50 requires disclosure in the notes to the financial statements of
pension plans and certain employer governments of the current funded status of the
plan and other actuarial information. The adoptions of GASB 50 had an impact on
the presentation of the notes to the financial statements but had no impact on the
Plan's net assets available for Plan benefits.
Effective October 1, 2011, employee participants were required to contribute 3% of
compensation (an increase from .5% of compensation)per Resolution 11-031.
During the years ended September 30, 2012, 2011, and 2010, there were employee
contributions in the amounts of$48,676, $42,021 and $62,549, respectively. These

employee contributions were for the buyback of military service time for certain
employees. There were no employee contributions to the Plan during the years
ended September 30, 2005 or 2004, as the District funded the scheduled employee
required contributions. The employer contributed 100% of its required contributions,
as well as those required contributions of the participating firefighters (0.5%pick-up).
The Plan provides for full-time firefighting personnel to become eligible to participate
in the Plan immediately upon hire. Under District resolution 96-005, the District
elected to pay the 0.5% (1%prior to December 9, 2004) employee required
contribution on behalf of the employee. Effective December 9, 2004 the employee
contribution was reduced to 0.5% (employee pick up). Effective July 1, 2001 (per
resolution 01-01), benefits under the Plan vest after six years of creditable service.
Employees who elect normal retirement at or after age 55 with 6 years of creditable
service, or 25 years of service regardless of age, are entitled to a retirement benefit.
Effective Octber 1, 2011, required employee contributions increased to 3% of
compensation. Employees may elect early retirement after 6 years of creditable
service with a reduction in benefit not to exceed 3% for each year before normal
retirement. The Plan also includes certain disability and death benefits.
Contributions - Contributions to the Plan are derived from three sources:
the plan's participants are required to contribute to the plan in the amount of 3% of
their covered wages and pursuant to resolution 11-031 the District has elected to
increase the affected employees' salary by 0.5% (employer pick-up), State funds
(fire [hazard] insurance premium tax per Florida Statute Chapter 175) and employer
(remaining amount necessary to meet actuarial requirement). For the period from.
January 1, 1996 through September 30, 1996, no employer contributions were
required. Employer contributions were required beginning October 1, 1996. The
State contributions under Chapter 175 began in June 1997. This revenue is based on
property fire insurance premiums paid within the District and is applied up to an
approved "frozen" limit of$1,746,716. The District(employer)is required to fund
the difference each year between the total contributions from all other sources for the
year and the total cost for the year pursuant to the most recent actuarial valuation of
the Plan. The total cost for any year equals total normal cost plus the additional
amounts sufficient to amortize the unfunded past service liability over a 30 year period
commencing the first year of the Plan's inception.

contribution(District only)requirement was 26.24% of the actuarially determined
covered payroll. Actual District contributions to the Plan for the year ended
September 30, 2012, were $2,166,240. The State contributions for the year ended
September 30, 2012 were $1,214,214. Employees contributed (3%) $246,871 to
the Plan for the year ended September 30, 2012. At October 1, 2012,
$33,985,436 of the Plan's total net assets were restricted for future benefits
increases.
Pension Benefits - Effective July 1, 2001, employees with 6 or more years of
service are entitled to monthly pension benefits, beginning at the earlier of age 55 with
6 years of credited service or 25 years credited service regardless of age. Benefit is
equal to 3.53% of their average final compensation (AFC) times credited service
prior to October 1, 2010 plus 3% of average final compensation times credited
service on and after October 1, 2010. Maximum benefit is 100% of AFC. The plan
permits early retirement at age 50 with 6 years of credited service. Employees may
elect to receive their pension benefits in the form of a 10 year certain and life annuity.
If employees terminate before rendering 6 years of credited service, they forfeit the
right to receive the portion of their accumulated plan benefits.
All retirement benefits are annually increased for cost of living at 3%.
Death and Disability Benefits - Upon the death of any vested member,
whether or not still in active employment, a survivor benefit is payable to the
beneficiary starting when the member would have reached retirement age. The
benefit is equal to the vested pension benefit and is payable for 10 years. A spousal
and/or minor benefit is provided for line of duty death is equal to a minimum of one
half of the members salary for life (spouse) or age 18 (child).
Employees who become totally disabled with at least 8 years of credited service
receive the greater of the accrued pension benefit or 25% of AFC, if non-service
incurred, or 42% of AFC, if active service incurred. Effective December 9, 2004,
the active service related benefit was increased to 65%.

Supplemental Benefits - Effective December 31, 2004, each service and
disability retiree and their joint pensioners or beneficiaries and vested terminated
members shall receive a supplemental payment to be used as a health insurance
subsidy payment. The amount shall be five dollars ($5) for each full year of credited
service for life. The maximum monthly supplement is one hundred fifty dollars ($150)
and the minimum thirty dollars ($30).
Income Recognition - Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Investments
are reported at market value. Short-term investments are reported at cost, which
approximates market value.
Actuarial Present Value of Accumulated Plan Benefits - Accumulated plan
benefits are those future periodic payments, including lump-sum distributions, that
are attributable under the Plan's provisions to the service employees have rendered.
Accumulated plan benefits include benefits expected to be paid to (a) retired or
terminated employees or their beneficiaries, (b) beneficiaries of employees who have
died, and(c)present employees or their beneficiaries. Benefits under the Plan are
based on employees' age at entry to the Plan and are based upon the current starting
salary for firefighters at entry level. Benefits payable under all circumstances,
retirement, death, disability and termination of employment, are included,to the
extent they are deemed attributable to employee service rendered to the valuation
date.
The actuarial present value of accumulated plan benefits is determined by an actuary
and is the amount that results from applying actuarial assumptions to adjust the
accumulated plan benefits to reflect the time value of money (through discounts for
interest) and the probability of payment (by means of decrements such as for death,
disability, withdrawal, or retirement)between the valuation date and the expected
date of payment. The significant actuarial assumptions used in the valuations as of
October 1, 2010 were (a) life expectancy of participants - RP 2000 (combined
healthy, sex distinct) Mortality Table was used, (b) retirement age assumptions (the
assumed average retirement age was 55), and (c) annual investment return of 8%.
The October 1, 2011 actuarial valuation reflected assumed average rates of return of
8%. The foregoing actuarial assumptions are based on the presumption that the Plan

will continue. If the Plan terminated, different actuarial assumptions and other factors
might be applicable in determining the actuarial present value of accumulated plan
benefits.

The District formally established two (2) OPEB Plans to provide its retirees the
opportunity to obtain insurance (health, dental, life and vision) benefits. The year
ended September 30, 2010, was the District's transition year. As such, the District
implemented GASB No. 45 on a prospective basis. All retired full-time employees
are eligible for OPEB benefits if actively employed by the District immediately before
retirement. As such, active employees with at least twenty five (25) years of service
as of September 30, 2010 were allowed to elect to remain in the Defined Benefit
—" Plan or to enter the Post Employment Health Plan (PEHP) a defined contribution
plan. All retirees and Early Retirement Incentive Program (ERIP) participants, who
were eligible, remained in the Defined Benefit Plan. All other active employees at
that time, September 30, 2010, as well as future employees entered the PEHP.
The benefits are provided both with and without contractual or labor agreements.
The benefits may require contribution from the retirees, depending on certain
specified criteria and, in particular, length of creditable employment. The District
finances the benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis and recognizes expenditures at the
time the premiums are due for both Plans.

Defined Benefit Plan
— Specifically, the Defined Benefit Plan provides that the District will pay a portion of
medical and dental premiums for retirees depending on their years of credited service
starting with the completion of fifteen(15)years of credited service. As such, the
— District pays 50% of the employee's premium and 25% of the spouse's premium at
15 years of service progressing to 100% of the employee's premium and 50% of the
spouse's premium upon completion of 25 years of service. The District also pays the
premium associated with a$5,000 life insurance benefit and offers access to a vision
plan for which the retiree is expected to pay the full premium.
During fiscal years 2009 and 2010, the District offered two (2) separate Early
Retirement Incentive Programs (ERIP)to a number of active employees. A portion
of the programs includes full payment of premiums associated with medical, dental,
vision and life insurance coverage, including dependent coverage for a period of 3
years. After the 3 year period ends, the ERIP participants will receive the Defined
Benefit Plan benefits they had been eligible for at termination.
Note that the projected premiums for the dental, vision and life benefits are assumed
— to cover the entire cost of the program.
Post Employment Health Plan (PEHP)
The PEHP is a defined contribution plan administered by the District.
All current employees who did not elect to remain in the Defined Benefit Plan, and all
future active employees will be participants in the PEHP.
Participants in the PEHP have $7,000 deposited on their behalf into a trust account
on the 20th anniversary of their date of hire and on each subsequent anniversary.
Additionally, those participants who have over 20 years of credited service at their
date of retirement will also receive a$30,000 deposit on their behalf at date of
separation. Effective October 1, 2012, the Plan was changed to limit District
contributions to $50,000 per employee.
The PEHP is designed to offer similar benefits to those offered under the Defined
Benefit Plan.

The District paid $221,717 for retiree's and ERIP participants' health care premiums
as part of the Defined Benefit Plan on a pay-as-you-go basis for the year ended
September 30, 2012.
The District also contributed $154,000 to the PEHP Plan for the year ended

-- No separate trust has been established for either Plan. No separate financial
_ statement is issued for either OPEB Plan. All required disclosures are presented
herein. The District obtained an actuarial valuation for its OPEB Plans to measure the
current year's subsidies and project these subsidies into the future, making an
allocation of that cost to different years. The following schedule of funding progress
presents multi-year trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets
is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for

Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The annual OPEB cost is the amount that was expensed in the current year. Since
the District's Defined Benefit Plan is unfunded,the offset to that expense comes from
subsidies paid on behalf of the current retirees and their dependents for the current
year. This offset is called the expected cash payment. The cumulative difference
between the annual OPEB cost for the year and the expected cash payment is called
the net OPEB obligation (NOO). The net OPEB obligation is reflected as a liability
in the Statement of Net Assets. The following table shows the components of the
District's annual OPEB cost for the year and the net OPEB obligation.

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
healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funding status of a 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.

Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive
plans (the plans as understood by the employer and plan members) and include the
types of benefits provided at the time of the valuation and the historical pattern of
sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members. The actual
methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the
effects of short-term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial valuation
of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective of the calculations.
In the October 1, 2011 actuarial valuation, the projected credit unit cost method with
linear pro-ration to assumed benefit commencement was used. The actuarial
assumptions included a 4.5 percent investment rate of return. Since there are no
invested plan assets held in trust to finance the Defined Benefit Plan- OPEB
obligations,the investment return discount rate is the long-term expectation of
investment return on assets held in District funds pursuant to its investment policy.
— The assumptions also included an annual healthcare cost trend using 6% in 2012.
declining by 1%per year to 5% in 2013. Dental care at 6%per year. Life insurance
at 0%per year. The unfunded actuarial accrued liability, as calculated, is being
amortized over a closed period of 30 years as a level percent of payroll. The
assumed rate of payroll growth is 6.0 percent. The funding method is the entry age
normal actuarial cost method (level percent of pay).
NOTE I - RISK MANAGEMENT
The District began participating in a self-insurance program for health and dental
insurance claims beginning January 1, 2005 and continued to do so through
December 31, 2008.
Beginning January 1, 2009,the District converted to a fully funded third party insured
health plan; however, dental remained a self-insurance plan. Maximum benefit per
participant was $1,500 per year, which included employees, spouses, and family.

NOTE I - RISK MANAGEMENT, CONTINUED
_ Vision insurance was added to the benefits offered and was not a self-insurance plan.
In addition,the District added a policy for reimbursement of the cost of certain
over-the-counter medications in lieu of prescriptions. There is no stated maximum
amount that will be reimbursed for prescriptions.
Beginning October 1, 2010,the District changed to a high deductible health plan and
eliminated the dental and vision plans offered to employees and retirees. The District
also established a flexible spending plan for its employees. The District contributes
_ $3,000 per eligible participant to the plan annually. Participants may also elect to
contribute to the plan on a pre-tax basis. Participant contributions that are not utilized
by the grace period following the year end are forfeited. District contributions that are
not utilized by the grace period following the year end are divided evenly among the
participants and added to the District's contribution for the subsequent year. The
District has recorded $60,130, as part of accrued liabilities for flexible spending
owed to employees.
The District incurred $1,738,107 in claims, third party administration costs,premiums
and reinsurance premiums during the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012, for the
self-insurance and fully-funded insurance programs.
It is the policy of the District to purchase third party commercial insurance for other
remaining forms of potential risks to which it is exposed. The District's risk
management activities are reported in the General Fund. No accrual has been
recorded for claims and incidents not reported to the insurer. The District had no
significant reductions in insurance coverage from the prior year. Reported claims
have not exceeded the insurance coverage for the years ended September 30, 1998
through September 30, 2012.
NOTE J- PROPERTY TAXES
Property taxes are levied after formal adoption of the District's budget and become
due and payable on November 1 of each year and are delinquent on April 1 of the
following year. Discounts on property taxes are allowed for payments made prior to

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE
AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF BASIC
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE
WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Board of Commissioners
North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District
1885 Veterans Park Drive
Naples, Florida 34109-0492
We have audited the basic financial statements of North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District
as of and for the year ended September 30, 2012 and have issued our report thereon dated
February 14, 2013. 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 of America.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting. In planning and performing our audit,
we considered North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District's internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing our audit procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion
on the basic financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of North Naples Fire Control and Rescue District's internal control over financial
reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of North Naples Fire
Control and Rescue District's internal control over financial reporting.
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 misstatements on a timely basis.

Page 65 of 68
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that
adversely affect the entity's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report financial data
reliably in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the financial
statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a
timely basis.
A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that
there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the basic financial statements will
— not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting 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 financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies or material
weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that
we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether North Naples Fire Control and Rescue
District's basic financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements,
noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of basic
— financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions
was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The
results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to
be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
— This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Commissioners,
management, the Auditor General of the State of Florida, and other federal and state audit
agencies. This report is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than these
specified parties.

determined that these two reports were in agreement.
• Pursuant to Sections 10.554(1)(i)7.c. and 10.556(7), Rules of the Auditor General,
we applied financial condition assessment procedures. It is management's
responsibility to monitor the District's financial condition, and our financial condition
assessment was based in part on representations made by management and the review
of financial information provided by management.
