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. Compliance As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, 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. r„ The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards. r-+ • 1 401 WEST HIGHWAY 6■P.O.BOX 20725■WACO,TX 76702-0725■(254)772-4901■FAX:(254)772-4920•www.pbhcpa.com 7AFFILIATE OFFICES:BROWNSVILLE,TX(956)544-7778■HILLSBORO,TX(254)582-2583 TEMPLE,TX(254)791-3460■ALBUQUERQUE,NM(505)266-5904•RIO RANCHO,NM(505)898-3516 I l � Internal Control Over Financial Reporting i ' L In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City's internal control over financial reporting in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the L: financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control over financial reporting.

WITH THE REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO EACH MAJOR PROGRAM,INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 AND ON THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council r'+ City of Pearland, Texas Compliance k , We have audited the compliance of the City of Pearland ("City") with the types of compliance requirements described in the U. S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to its major federal program for the year ended September 30, 2003. The City's major federal program is identified in the summary of auditors' results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws,regulations, contracts and grants applicable to its major federal program is the responsibility of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City's compliance based on our audit. 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; and OMB Circular A-133 Audits of States, Local Governments and Nonprofit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 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 occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City'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. Our audit does not provide a legal determination on the City's compliance with those requirements. In our opinion, the City of Pearland, Texas, complied, in all material respects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to its major federal program for the year ended September 30, 2003. r, 3 401 WEST HIGHWAY 6■P.O.BOX 20725■WACO,TX 76702-0725■(254)772-4901■FAX:(254)772-4920■www.pbhcpa.com -14 AFFILIATE OFFICES:BROWNSVILLE,TX(956)544-7778■HILLSBORO,TX(254)582-2583 TEMPLE,TX(254)791-3460•ALBUQUERQUE,NM(505)266-5904■RIO RANCHO,NM(505)898-3516 Internal Control Over Compliance The City's management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City's internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with OMB Circular A-133. Our consideration of the internal control over compliance would not necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control that might be material weaknesses. A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that noncompliance with applicable requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants that would be material in relation to a major federal program being audited may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions. We noted no matters involving the internal control over compliance and its L ` operation that we might consider to be material weaknesses. 744 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards We have audited 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 the City as of and for the year ended September 30, 2003, and have issued our report thereon dated January 2, 2004. Our audit was performed for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by OMB Circular A-133 and is not a required part of the basic financial statements of the City. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

Special Revenue Fund programs are accounted for using a current financial resources measurement focus. 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. revenue 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 for these programs. This basis of accounting P,y recognizes revenue in the accounting period in which it becomes susceptible to accrual, i.e., both measurable and available, and expenditures in the accounting period in which the liability is incurred, if measurable, except for certain compensated absences and claims and judgments, which are recognized when the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Federal grant funds for Special Revenue Fund programs are considered to be earned to the extent of expenditures made under the provisions of the grant and, accordingly, when such funds are received, they are recorded as deferred revenue until earned. Generally, unused balances are returned to the grantor at the close of specified project periods. Enterprise Fund programs are accounted for on a flow of economic resources measurement focus. focus, all assets and liabilities associated with the operation of the programs With this measurement o p p gr are included on the balance sheet. Operating statements present increases (revenue) and decreases (expenses) in net total assets. The full accrual basis of accounting is used for these programs. This basis of accounting recognizes revenue when earned and expenses when incurred. The Enterprise Fund programs follow generally accepted accounting principles prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board and Financial Accounting Standards Board standards issued prior to November 30, 1989. Subsequent to this date, these programs are accounted for as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. r- 6 r� CITY OF PEARLAND,TEXAS L • SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS FOR 111E YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30,2003 Summary of Auditors' Results Type of report on financial statements Unqualified L.
