City of Marysville 2023 Introductory Section
XX June 2024
Honorable Mayor
The Marysville City Council,
Citizens of the City of Marysville:
This correspondence will formally transmit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Marysville for the
year ended December 31, 2023. This submittal is in accordance with Washington State Statutes and Marysville code provisions.
This report of the financial condition of the City also provides full financial disclosure in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP).
Management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information contained in this report, based
upon a comprehensive framework of internal control that has been established for this purpose. Because the cost of internal
control should not exceed anticipated benefits, the objective is to provide reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the
financial statements are free of any material misstatements.
Cities and counties of the State of Washington use the Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting System (BARS) developed and
prescribed by the State Auditor’s Office. The City’s financial statements have been audited by the Washington State Auditor’s
office. The goal of an independent audit is to provide reasonable assurance that City financial statements for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 2023 are free of material misstatements. The State Auditor concluded based upon the audit, that there
was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City of Marysville’s statements are fairly presented in
conformity with GAAP. The State Auditor’s report is presented at the first component of the financial section of this report.
As the recipient of federal, state, and county financial assistance if the annual receipts exceed $750,000 the City is required to
undergo an annual single audit in conformity with the provisions of the Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200,
Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). This
audit is conducted by the State Auditor’s Office in conjunction with the City’s annual independent audit. During this reporting
period the receipt of federal financial assistance did meet the threshold, so a single audit was performed.
GAAP requires that the City provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements
in the form of a “Management’s Discussion and Analysis” (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the
MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the
independent auditors.
Marysville is approximately 20.99 square miles in size. Visitors and residents can enjoy 444.58 acres of recreational attractions
including parks, soccer fields, nature trails, a boat launch and golf course. The City also offers visitors a number of new retail
shopping areas, restaurants and hotels.
The City of Marysville is a non-charter code city operating under a Council-Mayor form of government. City Council elections
are held every two years with Council members elected to staggered four-year terms. The Mayoral elections are held every
four years. Citizens of Marysville may run for Mayor or City Council if they are at least 18 years old and residents of the City for
the previous twelve months.

City of Marysville 2023 Introductory Section
The Chief Administrative Officer (CAO) along with the Mayor, are responsible for implementing the policies and goals of the City
Council and provides leadership, coordination and development of City departments. The CAO is appointed by, reports directly
to, and serves at the pleasure of the Mayor.
The City of Marysville provides a full range of municipal services, including police, community development, street maintenance
and construction, parks and recreation, courts, and general administrative services. The City operates enterprise funds for
water, sewer, stormwater, solid waste, and golf course.
The City prepares a biennial budget in accordance with the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 35.A.34. Biennial budgets
must be adopted by the City council prior to the first of each odd-numbered calendar year. This budget serves as the foundation
for the City of Marysville’s financial planning and control. The budget is prepared by fund and department. A budget increase or
decrease to a fund must be authorized by the City Council. Appropriation changes within a fund may be authorized by the Chief
Administrative Officer.
The stewardship of public funds is one of the greatest responsibilities given to the officials and managers of the City of
Marysville. Therefore, the establishment and maintenance of wise fiscal policies enables City officials to protect public interests
and ensure public trust. These policies have been established to provide general fiscal guidelines and are intended to provide
sound direction in the management of the City’s financial affairs. They address topics that include the operating and enterprise
fund budgets, revenues and expenditures, cash management and investment, reserve and fund balance and debt management.
To ensure the City keeps abreast of and incorporates economic conditions into its financial plan, revenues are projected for six
years and the forecast is updated annually. Operating expenses are supported by ongoing revenues per City policy. Reserve
replenishment continues to be a high priority, with the objective of meeting and maintaining the reserve requirements. In 2021
S&P Global Rating upgraded the City’s bond rating from AA to AA+.
Major Initiatives
The 2023-2024 biennial budget approved by the City Council included the following major initiatives:
Transportation
• $9 million to complete the last phase of the State Avenue widening project between 104th and 116th Streets NE

City of Marysville 2023 Introductory Section
ended December 31, 2022. The City has received the award each year beginning in 2007. In order to be awarded a Certificate
of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized annual comprehensive financial report.
This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that our current annual comprehensive financial
report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to
determine its eligibility for another certificate.
The preparation of this Annual Comprehensive Financial Report would not have been possible without the efficient and
dedicated service of the Finance Department. Thank you to our department heads for understanding the importance of the
financial status of this organization and as such, worked diligently to provide quality service within our financial means. It is to
their credit that the citizens of the City of Marysville can rely on this report as the definitive discussion of all City financial
operations.
Respectively Submitted:

Office of the Washington State Auditor
Pat McCarthy
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Marysville, as of December 31, 2023, and
the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
9
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or
events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going
concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known information that
may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards includes the
following responsibilities:
• Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit;
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures
include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements;
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 City’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed;
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant
accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial
statements;
• Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the City’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time;
and
• Communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope
and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we
identified during the audit.
10
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.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund
financial statements and schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are 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. This information has been subjected to 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.
Other Information
The other information comprises the Introductory and Statistical Sections but does not include the basic
financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Management is responsible for the other
information included in the financial statements. Our opinions on the basic financial statements do not cover
the other information, and we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance thereon.
In connection with the audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the
basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If,
based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of
the other information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we will also issue our report dated September 30, 2024, on our
consideration of the City’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. That report will be issued under separate
cover in the City’s Single Audit Report. 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 City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
Sincerely,
11
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
The City of Marysville presents this discussion and analysis of its financial performance to provide an overview of the City’s financial
activities for fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in
conjunction with the accompanying basic financial statements and the associated notes.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
• The total assets and deferred outflows of the City of Marysville exceed its liabilities and deferred inflows at the close of
December 31, 2023 by approximately $533.6 million (net position) an increase of $46 million or 9.4%. Of this amount,
unrestricted net position totals $77.2 million and may be used to meet the City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and
creditors. Restricted net position totals $42.1 million and are subject to external restrictions on how it may be used.
• As of December 31, 2023, the City’s governmental activities reported a combined net position of $295.1 million, an
increase of $17.1 million from 2022. Approximately 8% of this amount, $22.1 million, is available for spending at the
City’s discretion.
• The City’s total long-term outstanding debt decreased by $8.6 million during calendar year 2023.
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction the City of Marysville’s basic financial statements. The basic
statements include three components: 1) government-wide financial statements; 2) fund financial statements; and 3) notes to the
financial statements. This report contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements and
required information.
The Statement of Net Position presents financial information on all of the City of Marysville’s assets, liabilities and deferred
inflows/outflow resources, with the difference reported as net position. Evaluating increases or decreases over time can serve as
a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the city is improving or declining.
The Statement of Activities present information on the net cost of each governmental and business-type function during the fiscal
year. The statement distinguishes revenue generated by specific functions from revenue provided by taxes and other sources not
related to a specific function. The revenue generated by the specific functions (charges for services, grants, and contributions) is
compared to the expenses for those functions to show the degree to which each function supports itself or relies on taxes and
other general funding sources for support. All activity on this statement is reported on the accrual basis of accounting requiring
the revenues to be reported when they are earned and expenses are reported when they are incurred, regardless of when cash
is received or disbursed.
Governmental Activities – most of the City’s basic services are reported in this category, including General Government,
Municipal Court, Police, Fire, Engineering, Parks/Recreation, Community Development, Street Maintenance, and General
Government Debt Service. Property and sales taxes, user fees, interest income, franchise fees, and state and federal shared
revenues and grants generally finance these activities.
Business-Type Activities – The City’s Waterworks Utility, Solid Waste, and Golf Course Funds are reported in this category.
These types of activities are funded by the City charging a fee to customers to cover all or most of the cost of certain services it
provides.
12
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to account for a number of funding sources and activities.
In general, fund accounting provides a mechanism for separately accounting for a variety of different funding sources, and enables
the City to demonstrate compliance with legal and/or contractual requirements that may be associated with these funds. Thus, the
accompanying fund financial statements present individual funds, organized into one of three groups based on the nature of the
activities and the purpose: Governmental, Proprietary or Fiduciary Funds. Note that the fund financial statements also include
“other governmental funds” on the governmental funds, and “other enterprise funds” on the proprietary funds. In addition, the fund
financial statements include a schedule that reconciles the fund financial statements to the Government-Wide Financial
Statements.
Governmental Funds – Most of the City’s basic services are reported in the governmental funds, which focus on how money
flows into and out of those funds and the balances left at year-end that are available for spending. These funds are reported using
an accounting method called modified accrual accounting, which measures cash and all other financial assets that can readily be
converted to cash. The governmental fund statements provide a detailed short-term view of the City’s general government
operations and the basic services it provides to its citizens. Governmental fund information helps determine whether there are
more or fewer financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the City’s programs. The differences between the
results shown in the Governmental fund financial statements and those shown in the Government-Wide financial statements are
explained in a reconciliation schedule following each Governmental Fund financial statement.
Proprietary Funds – When the City charges customers for the service it provides, whether to outside City customers or to other
units of the City, these services are generally reported in proprietary funds. Proprietary funds include two components 1) enterprise
funds and 2) internal service funds. Proprietary funds are reported in the same manner that all activities are reported in the
Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Revenues, Expenses and Changes in Fund Net Position. In fact, the City’s
enterprise funds are the same as the business-type activities reported in the governmental-wide statement, but provide more detail
and additional information, such as cash flows, for proprietary funds. Internal service funds are used to report activities that provide
supplies and services for the City’s other programs and activities – such as fleet maintenance, facility maintenance, computer
maintenance and insurance funds. Because these funds largely benefit government rather than business-type functions, they are
reported with governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.
Fiduciary Fund – The City is the trustee, or fiduciary for certain funds held on behalf of various third parties. The City’s fiduciary
activities are reported in a separate Statement of Fiduciary Net Position and Statement of Changes in Fiduciary Net Position.
These type of activities are excluded from the City’s other financial statements because the City cannot use these assets to finance
its operations. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes.
Other Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary
information (RSI) concerning the Schedule of Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability, the Schedule Employer
Contributions, and the funding progress for the Other Post-Employment Benefits. Also included as required supplementary
information are the Schedules Revenues, Expenditures and Changes in Fund Balances – Budget and Actual the general fund and
major special revenue funds.
Combining Statements
The combining statements for other governmental funds, internal service funds and custodial funds are presented immediately
following the required supplementary information.

result of capital purchases. The $3.4 million increase in Transportation is a result of the widening of State Ave. project
and overlays.

Revenues
Total revenues (excluding transfers) were up $15.5 million or 23% from the prior year. Charges for services increased by $9.1
million from 2022 due to a garbage and solid waste annexation and increase in recovery fees
Capital grants and contributions consist of infrastructure constructed by the developer and then turned over to the City. Business-
type capital contributions increased by $5.8 million.
In 2023, interest earnings on investments increased by $2.9 million. The increase is due to an increase and change in fair
market value and higher interest rate earnings in investments.
Expenses
Total business-type expenses saw an increase of $3.6 million or 7.65% from 2022. This increase is a result of higher
maintenance and operation costs.
As discussed earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental Fund
The focus of the City’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term revenues/financial resources and expenditures.
This information helps determine the City’s financing requirements in the near future. In particular, unassigned fund balance
measures the City’s net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At the end of the current fiscal year the City’s governmental funds reported a combined ending fund balance of $42.9 million, a
increase of $3 million from 2022.
Revenues for the governmental funds in 2023 were $85.1 million, up $10.6 million or 14.2% from 2022 and expenditures were
$91.4 million up $10.1 million or 12.4%.
General Fund - The general fund is the main operating fund of the City through which all receipts and payments of ordinary City
operations are processed, unless legally required to be accounted for in another fund. Taxes are the major revenue source. At the
end of 2023, the fund balance of the General Fund was $25.5 million up $4.3 million from 2022. As a measure of fund’s liquidity,
the ending fund balance is 44% of the fund’s 2023 expenditures. As of December 31, 2023, total revenue was $60.6 million, an
increase of $2.9 million or 5.0% and total expenditures were $57.5 million. Of the $25.5 million fund balance, $25.4 is unassigned
and is available for discretionary spending with the remainder assigned restricted funds related to the Opioid Settlement total
$95,591. The City remains committed to managing costs and balancing current year revenue and expenses to ensure the financial
security of the City.
General Capital Improvements – The General Capital Improvements fund tracks the bond proceeds and expenditures associated
with the construction of the new city campus and other general capital facilities. The fund reported an increase of $71,346 of fund
balance at year end with the compleation of the Civic Campus.
Local Improvement District 71 Fund (LID71) – The LID 71 Fund accounts for assessments related to the LID and provides payment
to the Fiscal Agent for principal and interest on bonds issued in September 2014. The fund fluctuates based off the assessments
collected and the bonds called during the current year.
Other Governmental Funds – The City has eleven other special revenue funds, two other debt service funds and two non-major
capital project funds.
Combined, the Other Governmental Funds reported total assets of $17.9 million with a combined fund balance of
$16 million. Liabilities increased due to the addition of the Street Capital Improvement fund to this category. The cash and
investments decreased by $6.2 million. This decrease is a result from the Growth Management Act Real Estate Excise Tax funds
and the real estate market activity.
Revenue for the Other Government Funds in 2023 was $13.7 million, a decrease of $2.7 million over 2022, primarily due to
decreased collection of charge for services.
Expenditures for the Other Government Funds in 2023 were $19.7 million, an increase of $ 1.7 million primarily due to the addition
of the Street Capital Improvement fund to this category.

Washington State statutes limit the amount of debt a governmental entity may issue to 7.5% of its total assessed valuation, subject
to 60% majority vote of qualified electors. Of the 7.5% limit, 2.5% is for general purposes, 2.5% for open space/park facilities, and
2.5% for utilities. Non-voted general purpose indebtedness is limited to 1.5% of assessed valuation and the combination of voted
and non-voted general purpose indebtedness cannot exceed 2.5% of assessed valuation.
The City’s assessed valuation for 2024 was $13.8 billion and the total amount of additional debt that the city may issue is $973
million. Remaining debt capacity is categorized as follows (in thousands):

The City of Marysville Council voted not to increase the regular property tax levy by 1% allowed under initiative 747 in 2023.
Assessed values (AV) for 2023 are estimated to increase by 32% from the 2023 assessed values. The levy rate for 2024 is $0.83
per $ 1,000 of assessed valuation, a decrease of 349% from the prior year of $ 1.259. The decrease is due to the rise in assessed
value and the decision not to increase regular property tax levy by the allowed 1%.
Total General Fund revenues for 2024 are estimated to decrease by $7.4 million from 2023 before transfers and the total General
Fund expenditures are estimated to decrease by $6.1 million from 2023 before transfers. This decrease is due to the reduction of
EMS levy collection on behalf of the Regional Fire Authority. The City is continuing to review and prioritize the strategic investments
necessary to lay the groundwork for a prosperous future.

Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures on the governmental fund type
operating statement. However, in the government-wide statement of activities, the cost of
those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives as depreciation expense. This is

City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
The financial statements of the City of Marysville have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as
applied to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing
governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The significant accounting policies are described below.
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Marysville was incorporated on March 20, 1891 and operates under the laws of the State of Washington applicable to a non-charter
code city with a mayor-council form of government. The accounting and reporting policies of the city conform to generally accepted accounting
principles (GAAP) of local governments.
The city is a general-purpose government and provides public safety, road improvement, parks and recreation, judicial administration and general
governmental services. In addition, the city owns and operates a water/sewer/surface water utility, a golf course and provides garbage collection
and recycling services. The accompanying statements include all funds, agencies and boards controlled by or dependent on the city. The
financial statements include as well the assets and liabilities of all funds for which the city has a custodial or trust responsibility. The financial
statements do not include the financial position or results of operations of the Marysville School District, which is a separate municipal corporation.
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the non-
fiduciary activities of the primary government. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from these statements.
Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type
activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues.
Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or segment. Our policy is to allocate indirect costs to 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 or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital
requirements or a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as
general revenues.
Separate fund financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds even though the latter are excluded
from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as
separate columns in the fund financial statements.
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting,
as are the proprietary funds. The fiduciary funds presented are custodial funds, use the accrual basis of accounting and use the economic
resources measurement focus. 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 imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they
are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the city considers
revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when
a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences
and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Under modified accrual basis of accounting, property taxes, sales taxes, utility taxes and interest associated within the current period are all
considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Only the portion of special
assessment receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as revenue of the current period. Grant
38
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
revenue is recognized for cost reimbursement grants when the expenditure occurs in accordance with GAAP. When the expenditure is incurred,
grant revenue is considered to have been earned and therefore available and recognized as revenue. All other revenue items are considered to
be measurable and available only when cash is received by the city.
• The General Fund is the city’s operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general
government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. The general fund includes police, parks, culture and
recreation, parks maintenance, community development, courts, executive, finance, human resources, and legal.
• The Street Capital Improvement fund accounts for the construction and improvements to roadway infrastructure.
• The School Mitigation fund accounts for collected developer fees to ensure adequate school facilities are available to serve
new growth and development.
• The Local Improvement District (LID) #71 accounts for assessments related to the LID and provides payment to the fiscal
agent for principal and interest on bonds issued in September 2014.
• The Waterworks Utility operating fund accounts for the distribution and filtration of water, the collection and treatment of
wastewater, as well as the collection and treatment of sewage, and the design and construction of all water/sewer/surface
water capital projects. Also included in the waterworks utility fund are all debt service payments.
• The Solid Waste fund accounts for the collection of commercial and residential solid waste as well as curb side recycling
program.
• Special revenue funds account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources to finance specific
activities as required by law or administrative regulations.
• Debt service funds account for the accumulation of resources and the payment of general long-term
debt principal and interest from governmental resources and special assessment bond principal and
interest from special assessment levies when the government is obligated in some manner for the
payment.
• Capital project funds account for the design and construction of city infrastructure and city parks and recreational facilities
and other governmental facilities.
• Internal service funds account for the city’s fleet management, facility services, information
services, unemployment insurance and liability insurance provided to other departments on a cost reimbursement basis.
• Custodial funds account for the funds received for drug seizure, weapon permits and other county mitigation fees.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated for the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general
rule are charges between the government’s water and sewer functions and various other functions of the government. Elimination of these
charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. The city has allocated certain indirect
costs that are included in the program expense reported for individual functions and activities.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers, 2) operating grants and contributions and 3) capital grants and
contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than program revenues.
General revenues include all taxes.
The proprietary statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and full-accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are
recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when liability is incurred regardless of the timing of cash flows. Proprietary funds distinguish
operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and
producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the city
are the Waterworks Utility Fund, Solid Waste Fund, Golf Fund, and the internal service fund charges to customers for sales and services.
Operating expenses for the enterprise funds and internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and
depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
39
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available to use, it is the City of Marysville’s policy to use restricted resources first, and then
unrestricted resources as needed.
D. Budgetary Information
Scope of Budget
In accordance with the Revised Code of Washington (RCW) 35A.34, the City budgets for all operating funds. These budgets are prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Budgetary accounts are integrated in fund ledgers for all budgeted funds, but the
financial statements include budgetary comparisons for budgeted governmental funds only.
The budget, as adopted, constitutes the legal authority for expenditures. Appropriations are authorized for two years, but must be reviewed by
the City Council at the midpoint of the biennial period. The appropriated budgets are adopted at the fund level where expenditures may not
exceed appropriations. Subsidiary revenue and expenditure ledgers are used to compare the budgeted amounts with actual revenues and
expenditures. As a management control device, the subsidiary ledgers monitor expenditures for individual functions and activities by object class.
Any unexpended appropriation balances lapse at the end of the biennium.
The financial statements contain the original and final budget information. 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 for the fiscal year.
As of December 31, 2023, the following funds reported deficits in fund balance or net position:
Fund 116 – School Mitigation Fees has a deficit fund balance of $91,318 due to payment made in period 13 and cash receipted in
2024.
Fund 650 – Intergovernment has a deficit fund balance of $355 due to payment made in period 13 and cash receipted in 2024.
40
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
4. Interest Receivable - Interest receivable consists of amounts earned, but not received, on investments.
5. Accounts Receivable - Customer accounts receivable consist of amounts owed by private individuals or organization for goods and
services provided. Unbilled services provided to utility customers are estimated at year-end and included in accounts receivable.
Amounts Due to and from Other Funds; Interfund Loans and Advances Receivable
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to as either
“interfund loans receivable/payable” or “advances to/from other funds.” All other outstanding balances between funds are reported as “due to/from
other funds.” Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-
wide financial statements as “internal balances.” Separate schedules of interfund loans, amounts due to and from other funds and advances are
furnished in Note 13 – Interfund Transactions and Balances.
Special Assessments
Special assessments are amounts levied against benefited properties to recover costs associated with the construction of local improvement
district (LID) projects. A lien is recorded against benefited properties until the assessment has been paid. Special assessments receivable
represent all outstanding assessment amounts including current assessments billed but not collected, unpaid delinquent assessments, and
special assessment amounts due in future years, which are recorded in a deferred inflow of resources account. Since special assessments are
secured by liens against related properties, no allowance for uncollectible amounts is made. The City has one Special Assessment LID for the
152nd ST Overcrossing, located in the Smokey Point Area. This created access over I-5 to the shopping area west of I-5 and south of 172nd st.
This area is also part of the Cascade Industrial Center, with a planned on and off ramp from I-5 in the future. Total assessment principal billed in
2023 was $194,115 and total principal collected was $225,157. As of December 31, 2023, $5,179 of special assessments receivable were
delinquent.
Inventories
Inventories in proprietary funds use a perpetual inventory method in which an expense is recorded when related items are consumed. Physical
inventories are taken at year-end and the value of items remaining in inventory is calculated for financial reporting purposes. Inventories in
proprietary funds are valued by the FIFO method, which approximates the market value. Inventories associated with Golf Course are held for
resale. All other inventories are held for internal use only.
Capital assets, which include property, plant, and equipment, are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in
the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than
$5,000 and estimated useful life in excess of one year. Infrastructure assets are capitalized when cost equals or exceeds $300,000. Donated
capital assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation.
Capital assets purchased, constructed, or leased by a governmental fund type are recorded as expenditures in that fund at the time the related
expenditures are incurred. The associated capital assets are capitalized in the Governmental Activities column on the Government Wide
Statement of Net Position. Capital assets of internal service funds are reported with governmental assets.
Costs of normal maintenance and repair for general capital assets are not capitalized. However, any improvement that increases an asset’s
value, capacity or materially extends its life is added to that asset’s capitalized costs.
All project costs are included in construction in progress in the government-wide statement of net position. At completion, capital costs are
reclassified to the appropriate capital asset account. In the governmental fund financial statements, lease and contract payments are reported
as expenditures.
41
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, are depreciated using the straight line method over the following estimated useful lives:
At the commencement of a lease, the City initially measures the lease liability at the present value of payments expected to be made during the
lease term. Subsequently, the lease liability is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments made. The lease asset is initially measured
as the initial amount of the lease liability, adjusted for lease payments made at or before the lease commencement date, plus certain initial direct
costs. Subsequently, the lease asset is amortized using the straight-line basis over its useful life.
Governmental funds recognize a capital outlay and other financing source at the commencement of a new lease. Lease payments in
governmental funds are reported as debt service principal and debt service interest expenditures.
Key estimates and judgements include how the City determines the discount rate it uses to discount expected lease payments to present value,
lease term, and lease payments.
• The City uses the interest rate charged by the lessor as the discount rate. When the interest rate charged by the lessor is not provided
the City generally uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
• The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are
composed of fixed payments and purchase option price that the City is reasonably certain to exercise.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its leases and will remeasure the lease asset and liability if
certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease liability.
Lessor
The City is a lessor for noncancelable leases. The City recognizes lease receivables and related deferred inflows of resources in the government-
wide and fund financial statements.
At the commencement of a lease the City initially measures the lease receivable at the present value of payments expected to be received during
the lease term. Subsequently the lease receivable is reduced by the principal portion of lease payments received. The deferred inflow of
resources is initially measured as the initial amount of the lease receivable, adjusted for lease payments received at or before the lease
commencement date. Subsequently, the deferred inflow of resources is recognized as revenue over the life of the lease term using the straight-
line basis.
Key estimates and judgements include how the City determines the discount rate it uses to discount the expected lease payments to present
value, lease term and lease payments.
• The City uses its estimated incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate for leases.
• The lease term includes the noncancelable period of the lease. Lease receipts included in the measurement of the lease liability are
composed of fixed payments from the lessee.
The City monitors changes in circumstances that would require a remeasurement of its leases, and will remeasure the lease receivables and
deferred inflows of resources if certain changes occur that are expected to significantly affect the amount of the lease receivable.
42
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
For purposes of calculating the restricted net position related to the net pension asset, the City includes the net pension asset and the related
deferred outflows and deferred inflows.
Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Plans (see note 6– Defined Benefit Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Plans)
Lifetime full medical coverage is provided to uniformed Police and Fire personnel who became members of the Law Enforcement Officers and
Fire Fighters (LEOFF) retirement system prior to October 1, 1977. A liability for the accumulated unfunded actuarially required contributions is
reported in the Statement of Net Position. Actual medical costs are reported as expenditures in the general fund in the year they are incurred.
Compensated Absences
Employees may accumulate up to 180 days of sick leave. However, since the city does not have a policy to pay any amounts when employees
separate from service with the government, there is no liability recorded for unpaid accumulated sick leave. Sick leave pay is recorded as an
expense/expenditure upon usage. Eligible employees accumulate 10 to 25 days of vacation annually depending upon the employee’s length of
service, but may not accumulate more than two full years of earned accrual.
At the time of retirement or separation from the City, employees will be compensated for any unpaid accumulated vacation leave up to 240 hours.
Unearned Revenues
This account includes amounts recognized as receivables but not revenues in governmental funds because the revenue recognition criteria have
not been met.
Deferred inflow of resources is the acquisition of net position that is applicable to a future reporting period. A deferred inflow of resources involved
no acquisition of resources resulting in either a net increase in assets or a new decrease in liabilities. It represents a present obligation to sacrifice
resources that the government has little or no discretion to avoid. Deferred inflow of resources presented in this manner on the accompanying
financial statements are related to outstanding debt, leases, pensions, and timing-related revenue adjustments.
For governmental funds financial statements, bond issuance costs are expended at the time of issuance. Bond premiums and discounts are
deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bond proceeds are reported as other financing source net of the applicable premium or
discount. Issuance costs, even if withheld from the actual net proceeds received, are reported as a debt service expenditure. The nature of debt
in the governmental activity is specific to a program and, therefore; debt service costs are not an allocated expenditure.
Fund balances, presented in the governmental fund financial statements represent the difference between assets and liabilities reported within
the government fund. Fund balance is classified into the following categories:
43
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
Non-spendable – items that cannot be spent due to form; inventories, prepaid amounts, long-term loan receivables, or amounts that must be
maintained intact legally.
Spendable - amounts are further segregated into categories based on the degree to which the uses of resources are constrained. When an
expenditure is incurred for which restricted and unrestricted amounts are available, the City considers restricted amounts to be used first, followed
by committed, then assigned, and lastly, unassigned amounts.
Restricted – amounts constrained for specific purposes imposed by external parties, such as those resulting from federal and state legislation,
grant awards, bond covenants, and inter-local service agreements.
Committed – fund balance constrained by ordinance or resolution is adopted by City council and requires the same action to remove the constraint.
In Washington State, ordinances and resolutions carry the same force of law.
Assigned – constraints that are neither restricted or committed, are considered assigned. Assignments are adopted by City Council through the
budget ordinance. Special revenue funds typically report the majority of assigned fund balance and are created through ordinance by City Council.
Fund balance in special revenue funds that are intended to be used for specific purposes, but are neither restricted or committed, include transfers
from other funds, investment interest not constrained by contract or covenant, fees for services and rents.
Unassigned – any remaining fund balance in the general fund not classified as non-spendable, restricted, committed or assigned is considered
unassigned. Also negative fund balance in any other governmental fund is unassigned. Also, the City’s financial policies require a minimum of
10% of General Funds budgeted revenues (less beginning fund balance) be held in reserve. The reserves can be used for anything that council
feels is necessary and therefore is reported as unassigned. Any and all expenditures from the reserve require a super majority vote by the entire
City Council.
Deposits
The City’s deposits and certificates of deposit are entirely covered by federal depository insurance (FDIC) or by collateral held in a multiple
financial institution collateral pool administered by the Washington Public Deposit Protection Commission (PDPC).
Investments
As required by state law, all investments of the City’s funds are obligations of the U.S. Government, U.S. agency issues, obligations of the State
of Washington, the State of Washington Local Government Investment Pool, or certificates of deposit with Washington State Banks.
The City is a participant in the Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP) which was authorized by Chapter 294, Laws of 1986, and is managed
and operated by the Washington State Treasurer. The State Finance Committee is the administrator of the statute that created the pool and
adopts rules. The State Treasurer is responsible for establishing the investment policy for the pool and reviews the policy annually and proposed
changed are reviewed by the LGIP advisory Committee.
Investments in the LGIP, a qualified external investment pool, are reported at amortized cost which approximates fair value. The LGIP is an
unrated external investment pool. The pool portfolio is invested in a manner that meets the maturity, quality, diversification and liquidity
requirements for external investments pools that elect to measure, for financial reporting purposes, investments at amortized cost. The LGIP
does not have any legally binding guarantees of share values. The LGIP does not impose liquidity fees or redemption gates on participant
withdrawals.
The Office of the State Treasurer prepared a stand-along LGIP financial report. A copy of the report is available from the Office of the State
Treasurer, PO Box 40200, Olympia, Washington 98504-0200, online at http://www.tre.wa.gov.

Credit Risk - Safety of principal is the foremost objective of the City’s investment program. City investments are undertaken in a conservative
manner that seeks to ensure the preservation of the portfolio’s capital. The City holds investments in government agencies all of which hold AAA
ratings from Standard & Poor’s and Aaa from Moody’s Investor Services.
Custodial Credit Risk is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City’s investments may not be recovered. All City securities are held for
safekeeping by US Bank.
Concentration of Credit Risk – Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the City’s investment in a single issuer.
Safety of the principal is the foremost objective of the investment program. Investments of the City shall be undertaken in a manner that seeks
to ensure the preservation of capital in the overall portfolio.
Interest Rate Risk – Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates of debt instruments will adversely affect the fair value of an
investment. To mitigate the effect of interest rate risk, the portfolio is invested in high quality, highly liquid obligations with limited maximum and
average maturities. The City’s investment policy limits the effective duration of the portfolio to a maximum of five with a weighted average maturity
of two years.

as follows:
Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
Level 2 – These are quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar
assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or other than quoted prices that are not observable
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for an asset or liability

The county treasurer acts as an agent to collect property taxes levied in the county for all taxing authorities. Collections are distributed at/after
the end of each month. Properties listed on the County tax rolls as of May 31 are included in the annual tax levy January 1. New construction
through August 31 is included in the annual tax levy the following January 1.
46
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
Property tax revenues are recognized in the year levied. At year-end, property tax revenues are recognized for collections to be distributed by
the County Treasurer within sixty days and an adjustment to taxes receivable and deferred revenue is made to account for delinquent taxes. No
allowance for uncollectible taxes is established because delinquent taxes are considered fully collectible.
The City may levy up to $3.60 per $1,000 of assessed valuation for general governmental services, subject to two limitations:
a. Washington State law in RCW 84.55.010 limits the growth of regular property taxes to 1 percent per year, after adjustments
for new construction.
b. The Washington State Constitution limits the total regular property taxes to 1 percent of all assessed valuation of $10 per
$1,000 of value. If the taxes of all districts exceed this amount, each is proportionately reduced until the total is at or below
the 1 percent limit.
The City's regular levy for 2023 was $.8141 per $1,000 on an assessed valuation of $11,185,397.

NOTE 5 - PENSION PLANS
The following table represents the aggregate pension amounts for all plans for the year 2023:
The Department of Retirement Systems (DRS), a department within the primary government of the State of Washington, issues a publicly available
annual comprehensive financial report (ACFR) that includes financial statements and required supplementary information for each plan. The
DRS ACFR may be downloaded from the DRS website at www.drs.wa.gov.
PERS members include elected officials; state employees; employees of the Supreme, Appeals and Superior Courts; employees of the legislature;
employees of district and municipal courts; employees of local governments; and higher education employees not participating in higher education
retirement programs. PERS is comprised of three separate pension plans for membership purposes. PERS plans 1 and 2 are defined benefit
plans, and PERS plan 3 is a defined benefit plan with a defined contribution component.
PERS Plan 1 provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Retirement benefits are determined as two percent of the member’s average
final compensation (AFC) times the member’s years of service. The AFC is the average of the member’s 24 highest consecutive service months.
Members are eligible for retirement from active status at any age with at least 30 years of service, at age 55 with at least 25 years of service, or
at age 60 with at least five years of service. Members retiring from active status prior to the age of 65 may receive actuarially reduced benefits.
Retirement benefits are actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor benefit. Other benefits include duty and non-duty disability payments,
an optional cost-of-living adjustment (COLA), and a one-time duty-related death benefit, if found eligible by the Department of Labor and
Industries. PERS 1 members were vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. The plan was closed to new entrants on September
30, 1977.
Contributions
The PERS Plan 1 member contribution rate is established by State statute at 6 percent. The employer contribution rate is developed by the
Office of the State Actuary and includes an administrative expense component that is currently set at 0.20 percent. Each biennium, the state
Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 1 employer contribution rates. The PERS Plan 1 required contribution rates (expressed as a percentage
of covered payroll) for 2023 were as follows:
PERS Plan 1

PERS Plan 2/3 provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Retirement benefits are determined as two percent of the member’s average
final compensation (AFC) times the member’s years of service for Plan 2 and 1 percent of AFC for Plan 3. The AFC is the average of the
member’s 60 highest-paid consecutive service months. There is no cap on years of service credit. Members are eligible for retirement with a full
benefit at 65 with at least five years of service credit. Retirement before age 65 is considered an early retirement. PERS Plan 2/3 members who
have at least 20 years of service credit and are 55 years of age or older, are eligible for early retirement with a benefit that is reduced by a factor
that varies according to age for each year before age 65. PERS Plan 2/3 members who have 30 or more years of service credit and are at least
55 years old can retire under one of two provisions:
• With a benefit that is reduced by three percent for each year before age 65; or
• With a benefit that has a smaller (or no) reduction (depending on age) that imposes stricter return-to-work rules.
PERS Plan 2/3 members hired on or after May 1, 2013 have the option to retire early by accepting a reduction of five percent for each year of
retirement before age 65. This option is available only to those who are age 55 or older and have at least 30 years of service credit. PERS Plan
2/3 retirement benefits are also actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor benefit. Other PERS Plan 2/3 benefits include duty and non-
duty disability payments, a cost-of-living allowance (based on the CPI), capped at three percent annually and a one-time duty related death
benefit, if found eligible by the Department of Labor and Industries. PERS 2 members are vested after completing five years of eligible service.
Plan 3 members are vested in the defined benefit portion of their plan after ten years of service; or after five years of service if 12 months of that
service are earned after age 44.
PERS Plan 3 defined contribution benefits are totally dependent on employee contributions and investment earnings on those contributions.
PERS Plan 3 members choose their contribution rate upon joining membership and have a chance to change rates upon changing employers.
As established by statute, Plan 3 required defined contribution rates are set at a minimum of 5 percent and escalate to 15 percent with a choice
of six options. Employers do not contribute to the defined contribution benefits. PERS Plan 3 members are immediately vested in the defined
contribution portion of their plan.
Contributions
The PERS Plan 2/3 employer and employee contribution rates are developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2 and the
defined benefit portion of Plan 3. The Plan 2/3 employer rates include a component to address the PERS Plan 1 UAAL and an administrative
expense that is currently set at 0.20 percent. Each biennium, the state Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 2 employer and employee
contribution rates and Plan 3 contribution rates. The PERS Plan 2/3 required contribution rates (expressed as a percentage of covered payroll)
for 2023 were as follows:
The City’s actual PERS plan contributions were $891,631 to PERS Plan 1 and $1,496,511 to PERS Plan 2/3 for the year ended December 31,
2023.

PSERS Plan 2 was created by the 2004 Legislature and became effective July 1, 2006. To be eligible for membership, an employee must work
on a full time basis and:
• Have completed a certified criminal justice training course with authority to arrest, conduct criminal investigations, enforce the criminal
laws of Washington, and carry a firearm as part of the job; or
• Have primary responsibility to ensure the custody and security of incarcerated or probationary individuals; or
• Function as a limited authority Washington peace officer, as defined in RCW 10.93.020; or
• Have primary responsibility to supervise eligible members who meet the above criteria.
• PERS 2 or 3 employees hired by a covered employer before July 1, 2006, who met at least one of the PSERS eligibility criteria and
elected membership during the period of July 1, 2006 to September 30 2006; and
• Employees hired on or after July 1, 2006 by a covered employer, that meet at least one of the PSERS eligibility criteria.
• Certain State of Washington agencies (Department of Corrections, Department of Natural Resources, Gambling Commission, Liquor
Control Board, Parks and Recreation Commission, and Washington State Patrol),
• Washington State Counties,
• Washington State Cities (except for Seattle, Spokane, and Tacoma),
• Correctional entities formed by PSERS employers under the Interlocal Cooperation Act.
PSERS Plan 2 provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Retirement benefits are determined as two percent of the average final
compensation (AFC) for each year of service. The AFC is based on the member’s 60 consecutive highest creditable months of service. Benefits
are actuarially reduced for each year that the member’s age is less than 60 (with ten or more service credit years in PSERS), or less than 65
(with fewer than ten service credit years). There is no cap on years of service credit. Members are eligible for retirement at the age of 65 with
five years of service; or at the age of 60 with at least ten years of PSERS service credit; or at age 53 with 20 years of service. Retirement before
age 60 is considered an early retirement. PSERS members who retire prior to the age of 60 receive reduced benefits. If retirement is at age 53
or older with at least 20 years of service, a three percent per year reduction for each year between the age at retirement and age 60 applies.
PSERS Plan 2 retirement benefits are actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor benefit. Other benefits include duty and non-duty
disability payments, an optional cost-of living adjustment (COLA), and a one-time duty-related death benefit, if found eligible by the Department
of Labor and Industries. PSERS Plan 2 members are vested after completing five years of eligible service.
Contributions
The PSERS Plan 2 employer and employee contribution rates are developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2. The Plan 2
employer rates include components to address the PERS Plan 1 unfunded actuarial accrued liability and administrative expense currently set at
0.20 percent. Each biennium, the state Pension Funding Council adopts Plan 2 employer and employee contribution rates.
The PSERS Plan 2 required contribution rates (expressed as a percentage of current-year covered payroll) for 2023 were as follows:

Law Enforcement Officers’ and Fire Fighters’ Retirement System (LEOFF)
LEOFF membership includes all full-time, fully compensated, local law enforcement commissioned officers, firefighters, and as of July 24, 2005,
emergency medical technicians. LEOFF is comprised of two separate defined benefit plans.
LEOFF Plan 1 provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Retirement benefits are determined per year of service calculated as a percent
of final average salary (FAS) as follows:
The FAS is the basic monthly salary received at the time of retirement, provided a member has held the same position or rank for 12 months
preceding the date of retirement. Otherwise, it is the average of the highest consecutive 24 months’ salary within the last ten years of service.
Members are eligible for retirement with five years of service at the age of 50. Other benefits include duty and non-duty disability payments, a
cost-of living adjustment (COLA), and a one-time duty-related death benefit, if found eligible by the Department of Labor and Industries. LEOFF
1 members were vested after the completion of five years of eligible service. The plan was closed to new entrants on September 30, 1977.
Contributions
Starting on July 1, 2000, LEOFF Plan 1 employers and employees contribute zero percent, as long as the plan remains fully funded. The LEOFF
Plan I had no required employer or employee contributions for fiscal year 2021. Employers paid only the administrative expense of 0.18 percent
of covered payroll.
LEOFF Plan 2 provides retirement, disability and death benefits. Retirement benefits are determined as two percent of the final average salary
(FAS) per year of service (the FAS is based on the highest consecutive 60 months). Members are eligible for retirement with a full benefit at 53
with at least five years of service credit. Members who retire prior to the age of 53 receive reduced benefits. If the member has at least 20 years
of service and is age 50, the reduction is three percent for each year prior to age 53. Otherwise, the benefits are actuarially reduced for each
year prior to age 53. LEOFF 2 retirement benefits are also actuarially reduced to reflect the choice of a survivor benefit. Other benefits include
duty and non-duty disability payments, a cost-of-living allowance (based on the CPI), capped at three percent annually and a one-time duty-
related death benefit, if found eligible by the Department of Labor and Industries. LEOFF 2 members are vested after the completion of five years
of eligible service.
Contributions
The LEOFF Plan 2 employer and employee contribution rates are developed by the Office of the State Actuary to fully fund Plan 2. The employer
rate included an administrative expense component set at 0.20 percent. Plan 2 employers and employees are required to pay at the level adopted
by the LEOFF Plan 2 Retirement Board.
Effective July 1, 2017, when a LEOFF employer charges a fee or recovers costs for services rendered by a LEOFF 2 member to a non-LEOFF
employer, the LEOFF employer must cover both the employer and state contributions on the LEOFF 2 basic salary earned for those services.
The state contribution rate (expressed as a percentage of covered payroll) was 3.41% in 2023.
The LEOFF Plan 2 required contribution rates (expressed as a percentage of covered payroll) for 2023 were as follows:
LEOFF Plan 2

State and local governments 5.12% 8.53%

The City’s actual contributions to the plan were $552,111 for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The Legislature, by means of a special funding arrangement, appropriates money from the state General Fund to supplement the current service
liability and fund the prior service costs of Plan 2 in accordance with the recommendations of the Pension Funding Council and the LEOFF Plan
54
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
2 Retirement Board. This special funding situation is not mandated by the state constitution and could be changed by statute. For the state fiscal
year ending June 30, 2023, the state contributed $87,966,142 to LEOFF Plan 2. The amount recognized by the City as its proportionate share
of this amount is $322,451
Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability (TPL) for each of the DRS plans was determined using the most recent actuarial valuation completed in 2023 with a
valuation date of June 30, 2022. The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2022 valuation were based on the results of the Office of the
State Actuary’s (OSA) 2013-2018 Demographic Experience Study and the 2021 Economic Experience Study.
Additional assumptions for subsequent events and law changes are current as of the 2022 actuarial valuation report. The TPL was calculated as
of the valuation date and rolled forward to the measurement date of June 30, 2023. Plan liabilities were rolled forward from June 30, 2022, to
June 30, 2023, reflecting each plan’s normal cost (using the entry-age cost method), assumed interest and actual benefit payments.
Mortality rates were developed using the Society of Actuaries’ Pub. H-2010 mortality rates, which vary by member status, as the base table. The
OSA applied age offsets for each system, as appropriate, to better tailor the mortality rates to the demographics of each plan. OSA applied the
long-term MP-2017 generational improvement scale, also developed by the Society of Actuaries, to project mortality rates for every year after the
2010 base table. Mortality rates are applied on a generational basis; meaning, each member is assumed to receive additional mortality
improvements in each future year throughout their lifetime.
Methods did not change from the prior contribution rate setting June 30, 2021, Actuarial Valuation Report (AVR). There was the following
assumption change:
• OSA made adjustments to TRS Plan 1 assets, LEOFF Plan 1/2 assets, and LEOFF participant data to reflect certain material changes
occurring after the June 30, 2022, measurement date.
Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability for all DRS plans was 7.0 percent.
To determine that rate, an asset sufficiency test was completed to test whether each pension plan’s fiduciary net position was sufficient to make
all projected future benefit payments for current plan members. Based on OSA’s assumptions, the pension plans’ fiduciary net position was
projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return
of 7.0 percent was used to determine the total liability.

Pension Liabilities (Assets), Pension Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to
Pensions
At June 30, 2023, the City reported a total pension liability of $3,092,212 and a total pension asset of ($12,619,509) for its proportionate share of
the net pension liabilities as follows:
The amount of the liability/(asset) reported above for LEOFF Plans 1 and 2 reflects a reduction for State pension support provided to the City.
The amount recognized by the City as its proportionate share of the net pension asset the related State support, and the total portion of the net
pension asset that was associated with the City were as follows:
At June 30, the City’s proportionate share of the collective net pension liabilities was as follows:
Employer contribution transmittals received and processed by the DRS for the fiscal year ended June 30 are used as the basis for determining
each employer’s proportionate share of the collective pension amounts reported by the DRS in the Schedules of Employer and Nonemployer
Allocations for all plans except LEOFF 1.
LEOFF Plan 1 allocation percentages are based on the total historical employer contributions to LEOFF 1 from 1971 through 2000 and the
retirement benefit payments in fiscal year 2020. Historical data was obtained from a 2011 study by the Office of the State Actuary (OSA). In
fiscal year 2020, the state of Washington contributed 87.12 percent of LEOFF 1 employer contributions and all other employers contributed the
remaining 12.88 percent of employer contributions. LEOFF 1 is fully funded and no further employer contributions have been required since June
2000. If the plan becomes underfunded, funding of the remaining liability will require new legislation. The allocation method the plan chose
reflects the projected long-term contribution effort based on historical data.
56
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
In fiscal year 2023, the state of Washington contributed 38.97 percent of LEOFF 2 employer contributions pursuant to RCW 41.26.725 and all
other employers contributed the remaining 61.03 percent of employer contributions.

The City provides health coverage for LEOFF 1 retirees through a medical plan purchased through the Association of Washington Cities (AWC)
Employees Benefit Trust as a single employer plan. In addition, the City pays or reimburses eligible retired LEOFF 1 police officers the necessary
usual and customary medical expenses in excess of those covered by the applicable insurance plan. The City also purchases a long-term care
insurance plan for eligible LEOFF 1 members. Dental costs and dependents are not covered. Funding for LEOFF retiree healthcare costs is
provided entirely by the City on a pay-as-you-go basis and there are no assets accumulated in a qualifying trust.

The City is exposed to financial loss resulting from city-caused damage to property or persons, bodily injuries, natural disasters, and
unemployment compensation benefits paid to former employees. Individual internal service funds are used to account for and finance self-
insurance activities. These include unemployment compensation and general liability. The city purchases commercial insurance for claims in
excess of anticipated self-insured losses. Premiums paid to these funds by other governmental funds are used to pay for administrative costs,
claims, and risk transfer/insurance.
In October 2018, the City Council signed resolution 2453 changing the payment method for the City’s Unemployment Insurance. In January,
2019, Fund 510 was established and the City started collecting premiums from other governmental funds and making payments to reimburse the
State of Washington Employment Security Department on a quarterly basis for unemployment compensation claims paid to former employees.
The City of Marysville purchases a variety of insurance coverages to protect itself from unexpected financial loss. Liability coverage is in force
with limits up to $25,000,000, subject to a self-insured retention of $100,000, which applies on a per occurrence basis. Coverage includes
automobile liability, general liability, law enforcement liability, and public officials liability, employment practices liability, employee benefit liability,
and Washington Stop Gap coverage. Claims are administered by the City with the assistance from Defense Counsel depending on the need,
and subject to involvement from our excess insurers should a loss exceed our self-insured retention. Insurance for property, equipment
breakdown, automobile physical damage, cyber, and pollution related exposures is also in place. A brief summary of insurance in force is as

Since the city began to self-insure in 2019 and creating fund 511, there have been no claims which have exceeded the city’s self-insurance limit.
At December 31, 2023, the city had available cash and investments in the Unemployment Compensation Insurance fund of $ 134,088 and in the
Liability Insurance fund of $ 622,910. The claims liability reported in the self-insurance funds is based on the requirements of GAAP. Prior to the
issuance of the financial statements, requires that a liability for claim be reported if it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of
the financial statements and can be reasonably estimated. This estimated liability is not discounted to present value.

In 2020, the City created a self-insured health benefits program for its employees as a means to contain rising health benefit costs. Medical
Insurance Fund 512 was established to account for the distribution of actual medical expense, associated administrative costs and reserves for
the program. The Association of Washington Cities continues to provide medical coverage for LEOFF 1 retirees, long term disability insurance
and employees who chose Kaiser or Group Health insurance.
In order to mitigate its risk exposure, the City holds individual and aggregate stop loss insurance and maintains both claims fluctuation and liability
reserves. The claims fluctuation liability reserve was $1,751,081 at December 31, 2023 based on an analysis of the recent twelve months of
incurred claims with applied monthly completion factors, as required by Washington Administrative Code (WAC) 200-110-040(a). At December

For the year ended 12/31/2023, the financial statements include the adoption of GASB Statement No. 96, Subscription-Based Information
Technology Arrangements. The primary objective of this statement is to enhance the relevance and consistency of information about
governments' subscription activities. This statement establishes a single model for subscription accounting based on the principle that
subscriptions are financings of the right to use an underlying asset. Under this Statement, an organization is required to recognize a
subscription liability and an intangible right-to-use subscription asset. The City included subscription contracts with a threshold of $10,000 or
more in annual costs. For additional information, refer to the disclosures below.
Subscriptions for the year ended December 31, 2023, are summarized as follows:

During the year ended December 31, 2023, the following changes occurred in long-term liabilities:
The general fund has been used to liquidate other post-employment benefits.
Since internal service funds predominantly serve the governmental funds, their long-term liabilities are included as part of the above totals for
governmental activities. At year end the governmental balances above include $271,778 related to the internal service funds’ net pension liability
and $93,335 related to internal service funds’ compensated absences. Also, for the governmental activities compensated absences are generally
liquidated by the general fund.
Arbitrage
Arbitrage occurs when the City invests funds borrowed at tax-exempt rates of interest in higher yielding securities. These interest earnings in
excess of interest expense must be remitted to the federal government. At the fund level, the City recognizes this liability only when it is due and
payable. The City had no arbitrage excess earnings liability in 2023.

NOTE 12 – RECEIVABLES
Receivables as of December 31, 2023 appear as follows:
The city participates in a number of federal and state-assisted programs. These grants are subject to audit by the grantors or their representatives.
Such audits could result in requests for reimbursement to grantor agencies for expenditures disallowed under the terms of the grants. City
management believes that any such potential disallowances, if any, would be immaterial.
The City of Marysville is the defendant in certain legal actions. At this time the City Attorney is unable to determine the probability of the outcomes
in these cases. However, in all cases of legal actions against the city, the City Attorney believes there are meritorious defenses to the plaintiffs’
claims, and that both separately and collectively the alleged damages in these cases are within the coverage limits of the city’s insurance policies.
Therefore, the city believes that the costs of defending these claims, and any awards, if any, will not be material to the city’s financial position.
Loans between funds are classified as interfund loans receivable and payable, or advances to and from other funds depending on the time period
for which the loan was made. Advances to other funds are typically loans that are not expected to be repaid within one year from the date of the
financial statements. Interfund loans receivable and payable are used primarily to meet short-term cash flow requirements while waiting for other
financing instruments to be put in place.
Interfund transfers are the flow of assets without a reciprocal return of assets, goods, or services in return. The City uses transfers to 1) move
revenues from the fund that statute or budget requires to collect them to the fund that statute or budget requires to expend them, 2) move receipts
restricted to debt service from the funds collecting the receipts to the debt service fund as debt service payments become due, and 3) use
unrestricted revenues collected in one fund to finance various programs accounted for in other funds in accordance with budgetary authorizations.

City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
Current year transfers were to fund street maintenance, street construction, debt service, and vehicle purchases. The Waterworks Utility provides
annual funding to Street Maintenance for surface water activities.
The RFA is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of five (5) voting members consisting of four (4) elected officials of the Marysville City
Council and (1) elected official from District 12. There is an additional non-voting member who shall be one (1) elected official from the District.
Separate financial statements for the new RFA may be obtained from Marysville Fire District RFA, Finance Department, 1094 Cedar Ave,
Marysville, WA 98270.
As a result of the RFA, the City of Marysville, beginning in 2024, will stop levying and collecting EMS taxes.
In the event of the dissolution of Snohomish County 911, any money in the possession of Snohomish County 911 or the Board of Directors after
payment of all costs, expenses and charges validly incurred under this agreement shall be returned to the parties to this agreement and shall be
apportioned between the parties based on the average ratio of each parties’ contributions to the operating budget over the preceding five years.
Before deducting the payment of all costs, expenses and charges validly incurred, the city’s share was $1,625,931 on December 31, 2023. The
City’s equity interest of $1,625,931 was recorded in government activities on the statement of net position.
Snohomish County 911’s 2023 operating budget was $28,409,308, operating revenues received were $28,409,308 and total operating
expenditures were $28,409,308 Complete financial statements for Snohomish County 911 can be obtained from Snohomish County 911’s
administrative office at 1121 SE Everett Mall Way, Suite 200, Everett, WA 98208.

AHA is governed by a Joint Board composed of an elected official from each member. The Joint Board is responsible for review and approval of
all budgetary, financial, policy, and contractual matters. The Board is assisted by an administrative staff housed at the Housing Authority for
Snohomish County (HASCO). Fiscal agent duties were transferred to HASCO during fiscal year 2018. The values included in the table below
were audited and updated by the new fiscal agent and may be different than what was reported in prior years.
Each member city is responsible for contributing operating revenues as determined from the AHA annual budget. Contributions from the member
cities are based on each member's population. A grant from the Gates Foundation provided $50,000 to assist with the first few years of
organizational start-up. The City of Marysville’s equity share to date is:

The City of Marysville is a member of the Association of Washington Cities Employee Benefit Trust Health Care Program (AWC Trust HCP).
Chapter 48.62 RCW provides that two or more local government entities may, by Interlocal agreement under Chapter 39.34 RCW, form together
or join a pool or organization for the joint purchasing of insurance, and/or joint self-insurance, to the same extent that they may individually
purchase insurance, or self-insure
An agreement to form a pooling arrangement was made pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 39.34 RCW, the Interlocal Cooperation Act. The
AWC Trust HCP was formed on January 1, 2014 when participating cities, towns, and non-city entities of the AWC Employee Benefit Trust in the
State of Washington joined together by signing an Interlocal Governmental Agreement to jointly self-insure certain health benefit plans and
programs for participating employees, their covered dependents and other beneficiaries through a designated account within the Trust.
As of December 31, 2023, 264 cities/towns/non-city entities participate in the AWC Trust HCP.
The AWC Trust HCP allows members to establish a program of joint insurance and provides health and welfare services to all participating
members.
In April 2020, the Board of Trustees adopted a large employer policy, requiring newly enrolling groups with 600 or more employees to submit
medical claims experience data in order to receive a quote for medical coverage. Outside of this, the AWC Trust HCP pools claims without regard
to individual member experience. The pool is actuarially rated each year with the assumption of projected claims run-out for all current members.
The AWC Trust HCP includes medical, dental and vision insurance through the following carriers: Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Washington,
Kaiser Foundation Health Plan of Washington Options, Inc., Regence BlueShield, Asuris Northwest Health, Delta Dental of Washington,
Willamette Dental Group, and Vision Service Plan. Eligible members are cities and towns within the state of Washington. Non-city entities (public
agency, public corporation, intergovernmental agency, or political subdivision within the state of Washington) are eligible to apply for coverage
into the AWC Trust HCP, submitting application to the Board of Trustees for review as required in the Trust Agreement.
71
City of Marysville 2023 Financial Section
Participating employers pay monthly premiums to the AWC Trust HCP. The AWC Trust HCP is responsible for payment of all covered claims.
In 2023, the AWC Trust HCP purchased medical stop loss insurance for Regence/Asuris and Kaiser plans at an Individual Stop Loss (ISL) of $2
million through United States Fire Insurance Company. The aggregate policy is for 200% of expected medical claims
Participating employers contract to remain in the AWC Trust HCP for a minimum of three years. Participating employers with over 250 employees
must provide written notice of termination of all coverage a minimum of 12 months in advance of the termination date, and participating employers
with under 250 employees must provide written notice of termination of all coverage a minimum of 6 months in advance of termination date. When
all coverage is being terminated, termination will only occur on December 31. Participating employers terminating a group or line of coverage
must notify the AWC Trust HCP a minimum of 60 days prior to termination. A participating employer’s termination will not obligate that member
to past debts, or further contributions to the AWC Trust HCP. Similarly, the terminating member forfeits all rights and interest to the AWC Trust
HCP Account.
The operations of the Health Care Program are managed by the Board of Trustees or its delegates. The Board of Trustees is comprised of four
regionally elected officials from Trust member cities or towns, the Employee Benefit Advisory Committee Chair and Vice Chair, and two appointed
individuals from the AWC Board of Directors, who are from Trust member cities or towns. The Trustees or its appointed delegates review and
analyze Health Care Program related matters and make operational decisions regarding premium contributions, reserves, plan options and
benefits in compliance with Chapter 48.62 RCW. The Board of Trustees has decision authority consistent with the Trust Agreement, Health Care
Program policies, Chapter 48.62 RCW and Chapter 200-110-WAC.
The accounting records of the AWC Trust HCP are maintained in accordance with methods prescribed by the State Auditor’s office under the
authority of Chapter 43.09 RCW. The AWC Trust HCP also follows applicable accounting standards established by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board (“GASB”). In 2018, the retiree medical plan subsidy was eliminated, and is noted as such in the report for the fiscal year ending
December 31, 2018. Year-end financial reporting is done on an accrual basis and submitted to the Office of the State Auditor as required by
Chapter 200-110 WAC. The audit report for the AWC Trust HCP is available from the Washington State Auditor’s office.
On December 20, 2016, the City purchased the WELCO Lumber company property located at 1218 1st Street, Marysville, WA. After conducting
both a Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments analytical data from the consultant’s investigation indicated concentrations of TPH
above the MTCA Method A cleanup levels were present in the site soils. In addition soil and water impacts identified were in multiple areas all
over the site and likely represent multiple, separate releases none of which have been fully characterized with respect to lateral or vertical extend.
In order to assess the full impacts to the property and develop accurate clean-up costs, further investigations are required. Currently we do not
know the remediation costs or what those activities would be, as this would be dependent on the future use of the property. Typically the
remediation would often involve some soil removal to address hot spots and then capping the property with a barrier to prevent migration of
contaminants.
This Statement provides guidance on the accounting and financial reporting for subscription-based information technology arrangements
(SBITAs) for government end users (governments). This Statement (1) defines a SBITA; (2) establishes that a SBITA results in a right-to-use
subscription asset—an intangible asset—and a corresponding subscription liability; (3) provides the capitalization criteria for outlays other than
subscription payments, including implementation costs of a SBITA; and (4) requires note disclosures regarding a SBITA. To the extent relevant,
the standards for SBITAs are based on the standards established in Statement No. 87, Leases, as amended.
GASB 96 requires new qualitative and quantitative disclosures which did not previously exist for subscription-based information technology
arrangements.
