May 4, 2026
To the City Council and Citizens of the City of Roseville:
Minnesota law requires cities to issue an annual report on financial position and activity prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepte d accounting principles (GAAP), and to have it audited in
accordance with generally accepted auditing standards by a licensed firm of certified public accountants
or the Office of the State Auditor. Pursuant to that requirement, we hereby issue the Annual
Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) of the City of Roseville for the fiscal year ended December
31, 2025.
This report reflects management’s representations concerning the City’s finances. Management assumes
full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of the information presented. To support these
representations, the City has established a comprehensive internal control framework designed to
safeguard assets and to provide sufficient, reliable information for preparing financial statements in
conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal control should not outweigh its benefits, our
framework provides reasonable, rather than absolute, assurance that the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. To the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and
reliable in all material respects.
The City of Roseville’s financial statements have been audited by Redpath and Company, an
independent firm of licensed certified public accountants. The audit’s objective was to obtain reasonable
assurance that the City’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, are free of material
misstatement. The audit included test-based examination of evidence supporting amounts and
disclosures; assessment of accounting principles and significant estimates; and evaluation of overall
presentation. Based on the audit, the independent auditor issued an unmodified opinion that the City’s
2025 financial statements are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditor’s
report appear s as the first component of the Financial Section.
As required by GAAP, a Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) accompanies the basic
financial statements and provides a narrative overview and analysis. This letter is designed to
complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The MD&A follows the independent
auditor’s report.
Profile of the Government
Incorporated in 1948, Roseville is a suburban community bordering Minneapolis and St. Paul,
Minnesota. The City occupies 13.7 square miles and serves a population of 36,305. Roseville is
empowered to levy a property tax on real and personal property within its boundaries. Although state
statute permits annexation, Roseville is fully developed and bordered by other incorporated
communities.
3
Page 12 of 260
Roseville has operated under the council-manager form of government since 1974. Policy-making and
legislative authority rest with a City Council consisting of the Mayor and four Council Members. The
Council passes ordinances, adopts the budget, appoints committees, and hires the City Manager. The
City Manager implements Council policies and ordinances, oversees day-to-day operations, and
appoints department heads. The Mayor and Council are elected at large on a non-partisan basis to
staggered four-year terms.
The City provides a full range of services, including police and fire protection; construction and
maintenance of streets, highways, and other infrastructure; water and sewer services; and recreational
and cultural programming.
## Budgetary Control
The annual budget is the foundation of the City’s financial planning and control. Each May, departments
submit appropriation requests to the City Manager, who develops a proposed budget for Council review
prior to August 31. The Council holds public hearings and adopts a final budget no later than December
31, the close of the City’s fiscal year.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function (e.g., public safety), and department (e.g., police).
Department heads may transfer appropriations within a fund; transfers between funds require City
Council approval. Budget-to-actual comparisons are provided for each governmental fund with an
## adopted annual budget—General, Recreation, Community Development, Roseville Economic
## Development Authority, Telecommunications, License Center, and Charitable Gambling. For the
General Fund, the comparison appears on page 88; for other budgeted governmental funds, comparisons
appear in Required Supplementary Information (RSI) on pages 89-91 and the related schedules on pages
118-120.
## Factors Affecting Financial Condition
Local Economy. Roseville continues to benefit from a stable and favorable economic environment.
While the region is known for a strong retail sector, recent redevelopment has diversified the local
economy. The area includes major industries such as computer hardware and software, electrical
controls, medical services, and state government divisions supporting transportation and K–12
education. Roseville’s employed labor force is approximately 40,000 and is expected to remain stable.
Given Roseville’s fully developed status, opportunities for large-scale new housing are limited. The City
has focused on supporting homeowners with redevelopment and remodeling efforts to ensure that, as
demographic changes occur, younger families continue to choose Roseville.
Long-Term Financial Planning. The City Council annually reviews long-term goals and objectives.
Recent priorities include establishing adequate funding mechanisms for infrastructure replacement,
redeveloping housing options, and securing funds for new initiatives.
The City is working with state, county, federal, and neighboring jurisdictions to improve the regional
transportation network—upgrading highways and strategically placing pathways. Most transportation
funding is expected from external sources, with a smaller share from local taxpayers.

Page 13 of 260
Financial Policies. As part of the annual budget process, the City reviews fiscal and budget policies
each year. No significant changes were made from the prior year, except for a change in the capital
investment policy to increase certain capitalization thresholds.
## Major Initiatives and Community Aspirations
The City aims to provide necessary and desired services efficiently while limiting the financial burden
on taxpayers. Additional goals focus on supporting community aspirations and responding to needs
identified in the most recent citizen survey.
## Community Aspirations
- Welcoming, inclusive, and respectful
- Safe and law-abiding
- Economically prosperous, with a stable and broad tax base
- Secure in our diverse, high-quality housing and neighborhoods
- Environmentally responsible, with well-maintained natural assets
- Physically and mentally active and healthy
- Well-connected through transportation and technology infrastructure
- Engaged in our community’s success as citizens, neighbors, volunteers, leaders, and businesspeople
These initiatives are not expected to have a significant financial impact. Where feasible, existing
resources will be redirected. As future debt obligations decline, resources previously dedicated to debt
service may be repurposed.
## Awards and Acknowledgements
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awarded the Certificate of Achievement for
Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Roseville for its ACFR for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 2024—the City’s 46th consecutive year receiving this honor. This award recognizes
easily readable and efficiently organized reports that meet GAAP and applicable legal requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for one year. We believe the current ACFR meets the Certificate
Program’s requirements and are submitting it to GFOA for consideration.
The City also received its 30th GFOA Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for the budget dated
January 1, 2025. To qualify, the budget was evaluated as a policy document, financial plan, operations
guide, and communications device.
Preparation of this report would not have been possible without the dedicated service of the Finance
Department staff. I extend my appreciation to all team members who contributed to this effort. I also
thank the Mayor and City Council for their continued support of the highest standards of
professionalism in the management of the City’s finances.
Respectfully submitted,

## INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
## To the Honorable Mayor and
## Members of the City Council
## City of Roseville, Minnesota
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
## Opinions
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City
of Roseville, Minnesota, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes
to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City of Roseville, Minnesota's basic
financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Roseville, Minnesota, as of
December 31, 2025, 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.
## Basis for Opinions
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. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor's Responsibilities for the Audit of the
Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of City of
Roseville, Minnesota and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the
relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.
## Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements, the beginning net position for the 2025
financial statements has been restated due to an error correction. Our opinion is not modified
with respect to this matter.
15
Page 24 of 260
## Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and
for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation
and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error.
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 City of
Roseville, Minnesota’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.
## Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a
whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditor's report that includes our opinions. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but
is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards will always
detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion,
forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in
the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the
financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards and
## Governmental Auditing Standards, we:
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 City of Roseville, Minnesota'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 City of Roseville, Minnesota's ability to
continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.
16
Page 25 of 260
We are required to 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.
## Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management’s discussion and analysis, the budgetary comparison schedules, and the schedules
of OPEB and pension information, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement
the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and,
although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting
Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the
basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We
have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of
inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the
information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial
statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements.
We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited
procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any
assurance.
## Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that
collectively comprise City of Roseville, Minnesota's basic financial statements. The
accompanying combining and individual nonmajor 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. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of
the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and
reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to
prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other
additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America. In our opinion, the combining and individual nonmajor fund financial
statements and schedules are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic
financial statements as a whole.
## Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual report. The other
information comprises the introductory and statistical sections but does not include the basic
financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. Our opinions on the basic financial
statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of
assurance thereon.
17
Page 26 of 260
In connection with our 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.
## Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
May 4, 2026, on our consideration of City of Roseville, Minnesota’s internal control over
financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely 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 the effectiveness of City of Roseville,
Minnesota's 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
City of Roseville, Minnesota’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

## MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
## For Year Ended December 31, 2025
## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
As management of the City of Roseville, we offer readers of the City’s financial statement this narrative
overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.
We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with the City’s financial
statements and the additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be
found on pages 3 through 5 of this report.
## Financial Highlights
The assets and deferred outflows of the City of Roseville exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows at the
close of the most recent fiscal year by $238,489,776 (Net position). Of this amount, $30,166,250 (unrestricted
net position) may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors in
accordance with the City's fund designations and fiscal policies.
The City’s total net position from operations increased by $10,672,977.
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City of Roseville’s governmental activities reported combined
ending unrestricted net position of $17,604,313.
At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance for the general fund was $10,619,216 or 35%
of total general fund expenditures budgeted for 2026. The unrestricted fund balance includes the assigned
balances and the unassigned balance presented on the governmental funds balance sheet.
The City of Roseville total bonded debt decreased by $675,000 during the current fiscal year.
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City’s basic financial
statements. The City’s basic financial statements are comprised of three components:
1) Government-wide financial statements
2) Fund financial statements
3) Notes to the financial statements.
This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements
themselves.
## Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the
City’s finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The Statement of Net Position presents information on all of the City’s assets and deferred outflows, and
liabilities and deferred inflows of resources, with the difference between the two reported as net position.
Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial
position of the City is improving or deteriorating. To assess the overall health of the City, one needs to
consider additional non-financial factors such as changes in the City’s property tax base and the condition
of the City’s infrastructure.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the City’s net position changed during the
fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported when the underlying event giving rise to the change
occurs, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this
statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in the future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected
taxes and earned but unused compensated absences).

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
## For Year Ended December 31, 2025
## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
Both government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported
by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from functions that are intended to
recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities).
The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, public works, economic
development and recreation. The business-type activities of the City of Roseville include water, sanitary
sewer, golf, storm drainage and recycling.
The government-wide financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements section of this
report.
## Fund Financial Statements
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been
segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund
accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds
of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds – Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported
as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-
wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows
of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year.
Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements,
it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented
for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better
understand the long-term impact of the government’s near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental
fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund
balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and
governmental activities.
The City maintains 13 individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the
governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures and
changes in fund balances for the General, Recreation, ARPA, Community Development, Roseville
Economic Development Authority, Debt Service, Revolving Improvements, Economic Increments
Construction and Street Construction, all of which are considered major funds. Data from the other
governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of
these non-major governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this
report.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements section
of this report.
Proprietary Funds – The City maintains two different types of proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used
to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-wide financial
statements. The City uses enterprise funds to account for its Sanitary Sewer, Water, Golf Course, Storm
Drainage and Solid Waste Recycling operations. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to
accumulate and allocate costs internally among the City’s various functions. The City uses its internal
service funds to account for Workers’ Compensation Self Insurance and Risk Management. The services
provided by these funds predominately benefit the governmental rather than the business-type functions.
They have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements.

## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, only
in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the Sanitary
Sewer, Water, Golf Course, Storm Drainage and Solid Waste Recycling since they are considered to be
major funds of the City. Both internal service funds are combined into a separate single aggregated
presentation in the proprietary fund financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds
is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements section of
this report.
Fiduciary Funds – Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside
the government. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the
resources of those funds are not available to support the City’s own programs. The accounting used for
fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds.
The basic fiduciary fund financial statements can be found in the Basic Financial Statements section of this
report.
## Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the
government-wide and fund financial statements.
## Other Supplementary Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, the Required Supplementary
Information presents a detailed budgetary comparison schedule for the General, Recreation, Community
Development, and the Roseville Economic Development Authority Fund to demonstrate compliance with
the budget. In accordance with the requirements of GASB Statement 75, it also includes other post-
employment benefit plan schedule of funding progress. The combining statements referred to earlier in
connection with nonmajor governmental funds and internal service funds and other information related to
the individual funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information.

## MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
## For Year Ended December 31, 2025
## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
The analysis of the City’s financial position begins with a review of the Statement of Net Position and the
Statement of Activities. These two statements report the City’s net position and changes therein. It should
be noted that the financial position can also be affected by non-financial factors, including economic
conditions, population growth and new regulations. Net position may serve over time as a useful indicator
of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of Roseville, assets and deferred outflows
exceeded liabilities by $238,489,776 as of December 31, 2025. This represents an increase of $10,672,977 from
the previous year.
By far the largest portion of the City of Roseville's net position (74.85% percent) reflects its investment in capital
assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, equipment and infrastructure) less any related debt used to acquire those assets
that is still outstanding. The City of Roseville uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently,
these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City of Roseville's investment in its capital assets is
reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from
other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
## CONDENSED STATEMENT OF NET POSITION
* Unrestricted net position restated for 2024 due to the correction of an error. Additional information on this
correction can be found in Note 15 in the Notes to the Financial Statements section of this report.
A portion of the City of Roseville's net position represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how
they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net position totaling $30,166,250 may be used to meet the
City's ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Roseville is able to report positive balances in all three categories of
net position, both for the government as a whole, as well as for its separate governmental and business-type activities.

The increase in net position resulted from the collection of a local option sales tax implemented as of July 1, 2025 for
the financing of a new Maintenance Operational Center, purchase of capital assets being depreciated and not being
depreciated, increase in fair value of investments, and a focus on prudent spending habits.
Below are specific graphs, which provide comparisons of the governmental activities revenues and expenses for the

## Business-type Activities
The increase in net position for business-type activities reflects improved cost containment. Rate increases in 2025 for
Water were implemented to offset increased operating costs and declining interest earnings as well as other non-tax
revenue sources. A major factor in the increase of net position is the capitalization of depreciable assets in 2025.
Below are graphs showing the business-type activities revenue and expense comparisons for the past fiscal year.

## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
## Governmental Funds
The focus of the City of Roseville’s governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and
balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City of Roseville’s financing
requirements. In particular, unrestricted fund balance may serve as useful measure of a government’s net resources
available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Roseville's governmental funds reported combined ending fund
balances of $58,866,867. Approximately 64.29% of this total amount, or $37,844,584, constitutes unrestricted fund
balance. The remainder of the fund balance is restricted to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it
is legally restricted for; 1) various operating purposes - $7,165,057, 2) for tax increment financing activities -
$7,582,681, 3) debt service - $2,397,094, 4) housing and economic development - $1,580,605, and 5) capital projects
- $2,296,846.
The General Fund net change in fund balance increased by $463,149 in 2025. The primary factor was an increase of
approximately $1.2 million in charges for services related to contracted police services provided to various retailers
and entities in Roseville, which began late in the first quarter. Although this new revenue source boosted overall
revenues, the impact was partially offset by the net effect of interfund transfers and higher expenditures, driven largely
by increases in public safety personnel costs for both Police and Fire services. In addition, an increase in the fair
market value of the City’s investments contributed positively to the year-end results.
The Recreation Fund increased by $96,629, due mainly to increased revenues from rentals and donations received as
well as less funds being transferred to the general reserve fund.
The Community Development fund increased by $374,624 due to the receipt of local affordable housing aid,
approximately 563K, which has yet to be utilized for expenditures. The city has three years to utilize the funds before
required to return to the State of Minnesota.
The Roseville Economic Development Authority fund increased by $33,714 due to the increase of the fair market
value of investments in 2025.
The Debt Service Fund increased by $27,895 in 2025, primarily due to an increase in the fair market value of
investments. The Fund currently holds cash and investment balances that will be used to make the final debt service
payments on two outstanding bond issues scheduled to be fully retired in 2028.
The Revolving Improvements Fund increased by $3,117,353 mainly due to the issuance of bond 2025A for the
purchase of an electric fire engine and the introduction of the new local sales tax for the construction of the new
Maintenance Operations Center. Other significant factors would be the increase of fair market value of investments
and transfers in from the general fund to support capital projects.
The Economic Increments Construction Fund accounts for the activities in the City’s Tax Increment Financing (TIF)
Districts. The Fund’s balance increased by $663,398 largely due to receipt of TIF funds for TIF #17 which will be
used in the near future for expenditures related to the Hyde – PIK development.
The Street Construction Fund increased by $413,007 mainly due to the increase in fair market value of investments
and 2025 projects extending into 2026.

## FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENT’S FUNDS
## Proprietary Funds
The City of Roseville’s proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial
statements, but in more detail.
The Sanitary Sewer fund net position increased by $1,142,987 in 2025. This was a result of revenues exceeding
operational and capital cost within the year because of the capitalization of a new sewer jet truck and improvements
to the Dale/Owasso lift station.
The Water fund net position increased by $504,405. This was a result of revenues exceeding operational and capital
costs within the year. Factors that contributed were as follows: A significant adjustment to beginning net position due
to the correction of an error for $977,229, 2025 water fee rate increase and a capital contribution grant.
The Golf fund net position increased by $14,632 in 2025. The increase relates primarily to transfers in as a result of
allocation of capital costs to other capital infrastructure funds.
The Storm Drainage fund net position increased by $1,775,318 in 2025. This was the result of user charges exceeding
expenses which will be used to fund future capital projects. The increase is also due to capital assets added exceeding
current depreciation.
The Solid Waste Recycling fund net position decreased by $187,825 in 2025. This was a result of the purchase of
recycling carts city wide which were partially funded by a Ramsey County PEIG grant.
The unrestricted net position in the respective proprietary funds is Sewer - $3,714,800; Water – $2,505,442; Golf -
($71,667); Storm - $5,969,328 and Recycling - $444,034. Overall net position increased $3,249,517 reflecting positive
cash flow from utility rates, which were designated for future capital replacements.
## General Fund Budgetary Analysis
The General Fund balance increased by $463,149 in 2025. The primary driver of this increase was a $1,119,682 rise
in charges for services, resulting from the implementation of contracted police services to Roseville entities beginning
at the end of the first quarter. Although this new revenue source contributed significantly to revenues, it also generated
higher personnel costs, as overtime expenditures increased for staff assigned to these contracted services. These costs
partially offset the revenue gains and contributed to Public Safety expenditures exceeding the final budget by
$1,445,612.
General property tax revenues were $588,773 lower than the final budget, primarily due to an increase in approved
valuation petitions that reduced the City’s taxable market values and overall tax capacity. This reduction resulted from
significant market value adjustments applied by the County Assessor’s Office to commercial and industrial properties
in 2022 and 2023. Intergovernmental revenues were $322,698 higher than the final budget due to increased Minnesota
Public Safety Aid. Licenses and permits revenue exceeded the final budget by $217,227, mainly due to higher-than-
expected right-of-way permit activity. Investment income in the General Fund also exceeded the final budget, largely
due to an increase in the fair value adjustment of investments based on market conditions as of December 31, 2025.
The General Fund received transfers totaling $678,621 from the License Center and Parks and Recreation Funds to
maintain the unrestricted fund balance at or above the City’s minimum policy level of 35 percent of subsequent year
General Fund budgeted expenditures.
The rental revenue budget was increased due to a reclassification of this revenue as miscellaneous revenue. This
reclassification also accounts for the corresponding decrease in the miscellaneous revenue budget.

31, 2025, amounts to $190,291,761 (net of accumulated depreciation) – an increase of $240,324 from the previous
year. This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, infrastructure, machinery and equipment, and right to
use leases.
Major capital asset events during the current fiscal year included the following:
Approximately $2.0 million in improvements to the City’s streets, part of the 2025 Pavement Management
## Program

drainage infrastructure.
Approximately $1.7 million in vehicle replacement purchases between Governmental and Business-Type
activities.
Purchased an Electric Fire Engine for approximately $1.8 million.
Addition of capital assets exceeded depreciation and disposals which resulted in a $240 thousand increase
from the prior year.

## FINANCIAL OUTLOOK
A number of local economic and operational factors were considered in developing the City’s 2026 budget, utility
rates, and fee schedule:
The City has experienced valuation challenges from larger commercial properties disputing assessed market
values determined by Ramsey County, especially during 2022 and 2023 fiscal years. These appeals have
resulted in reduced property tax collections compared to original levy expectations. However, assessed values
have begun trending more in line with market conditions, which may reduce the volume of future valuation
petitions.
Public safety expenditures are expected to increase in 2026 due to the addition of 15 firefighter/EMT
positions and 7 police positions. To help offset these costs, the City was awarded two federal grants: the
Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant from Federal Emergency Management
Agency and the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) grant from the U.S. Department of Justice.
Both grants are expected to be fully utilized by the end of 2028, at which time the City will need to identify
alternative funding sources.
The City implemented gas and electric franchise fees effective Quarter 1, 2026, to support capital
infrastructure needs and reduce reliance on property taxes.
A Local Option Sales Tax became effective July 1, 2025. Proceeds will be used to repay future bond issuances
related to the construction of the Maintenance Operations Center.
The City anticipates issuing general obligation bonds in 2026 to finance the construction of a new license
center and dance studio. The City plans to use the existing debt service levy capacity from two prior bond
issues that are scheduled to be fully retired in 2027 to support the new debt without increasing the levy. Debt
levels are expected to remain within the City’s established policy limits.
User charges in the water, sewer, and recycling funds were increased to reflect rising operating costs and to
support long-term asset replacement.
These factors were incorporated into the City’s 2026 budget and will continue to be monitored as part of ongoing
financial planning efforts.

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
## Note 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
## A. FINANCIAL REPORTING ENTITY
The City of Roseville is a municipal corporation formed under Section 412 of Minnesota State Statutes and
operates under a Council-Manager form of government. The five-member Council and Mayor are elected on
rotating terms in each even-numbered year.
The financial statements present the City and its component unit. The City includes all funds, organizations,
institutions, agencies, departments and offices that are not legally separate from such. Component units are legally
separate organizations for which the elected officials of the City are financially accountable and are included
within the basic financial statements of the City because of the significance of their operational or financial
relationships with the City.
The City is considered financially accountable for a component unit if it appoints a voting majority of the
organization’s governing body and it is able to impose its will on the organization by significantly influencing
the programs, projects, activities or level of services performed or provided by the organization or there is a
potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to or impose specific financial burdens on, the
City.
As a result of applying the component unit definition criteria above, certain organizations are presented in this
report as follows:
Blended Component unit. The Roseville Economic Development Authority (EDA) was established to facilitate
development and redevelopment in the City. The governing board consists of the members of the City Council.
The City approves the levy and appropriations for the EDA annually as part of the City’s budget process. Any
sale of bonds or obligations issued by the EDA must be approved by the City Council before issuance and the
City Council may require the EDA to transfer any portion of the reserves generated by activities of the EDA to
the City to reduce the tax levies for bonded indebtedness of the City. The EDA does not issue separate financial
statements. Financial information may be obtained at the City’s offices.
## B. GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report
information on all of the nonfiduciary activities of the primary government and its component unit. 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 user 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.
Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods,
service or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted
to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not
properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even
though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental
funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
## C. MEASUREMENT FOCUS, BASIS OF ACCOUNTING, AND FINANCIAL STATEMENT
## PRESENTATION
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the
accrual basis of accounting, as are the proprietary funds. With the economic resource’s measurement focus,
revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing
of the 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
expenditure-related to compensated absences and claims and judgments, are recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes, franchise taxes, licenses and interest associated with the current fiscal 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 assessments receivable due within the current fiscal period is considered to be susceptible to accrual as
revenue of the current period. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when
cash is received by the City.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:

The general fund is the City’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general
government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
## Special Revenue Funds
Recreation Fund – This fund accounts for resources and payments related to adult and youth programs, nature
center, skating center, and park maintenance activities. Most revenues are derived from user fees of various
programs and activities, room rentals, donations, and concessions.
American Rescue Plan (ARPA) Fund – This fund accounts for revenues and expenditures related to the
Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds grant authorized by the American Rescue Plan Act. The
City did not budget for these funds.
Community Development Fund – This fund accounts for resources and payments related to the City’s building
codes enforcement, development, and redevelopment activities. The funds primary revenue sources are
through permits, contractor licenses, and plan check fees.
Roseville Economic Development Authority (EDA) Fund – This fund accounts for the revenues and
expenditures used for the activity of the Roseville Economic Development Authority general operations. The
funds primary revenue sources are levied taxes, grants and charitable contributions.
## Debt Service Fund
The debt service fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments for principal and interest on long
term general obligation debt.

## Capital Project Funds
Revolving Improvements Fund – This fund accounts for revenues and expenditures from replacement funds
set aside for equipment and building replacement, and general land improvements.
Economic Increments Construction Fund – This fund accounts for tax increment payments to various
developers as part of Pay-as-you-go TIF agreements and infrastructure improvements.
Street Construction Fund – This fund accounts for revenues and expenditures related to street construction
and improvements.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Sanitary Sewer Fund – This fund accounts for the activities related to the operation of a sanitary collection
system.
Water Fund – This fund account for the activities related to the operation of a water distribution system.
Golf Course Fund – This fund accounts for the activities related to the operation and maintenance of a
municipal golf course.
Storm Drainage Fund – This fund accounts for activities related to the operation of a surface water collection
system.
Solid Waste Recycling Fund – This fund accounts for the activities related to the operation of a solid waste
recycling collection system.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Internal service funds – Account for the worker’s compensation and general insurance services provided to
other departments or agencies of the City.
Fiduciary Fund - Custodial funds are used to account for assets held by the City as an agent for other
organizations and are not available to the City for general operations. The City’s custodial fund accounts for
resources held by the City for the Roseville Islamic Cemetery. The funds use the economic resources
measurement focus and accrual basis of accounting.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial
statements. Exceptions to this rule are other charges between the City's water and sewer function and various
other functions of the primary government and its component unit. Elimination of these charges would distort the
direct costs and program revenues reported from the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or
privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including
special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program
revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
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 revenue of the City's enterprise funds
and internal service funds are charges to customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for 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.

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted
resources first, and then unrestricted resources as they are needed.
## D. CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash and investment balances from all funds are pooled and invested to the extent available in authorized
investments. Investment income is allocated to individual funds on the basis of the fund’s equity in the cash and
investment pool.
The City provides temporary advances to funds that have insufficient cash balances by means of an advance from
another fund shown as interfund receivables in the advancing fund, and an interfund payable in the fund with the
deficit, until adequate resources are received.
Investments are stated at fair value, except for investments in external investment pools that meet GASB 79
requirements, which are stated at amortized costs. Interest earnings are accrued at year-end.
For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows for the proprietary funds and internal service funds participate in
the pooling of City-wide cash and investments. Amounts from the pool are available to these funds on demand.
As a result, the cash and investments of the enterprise and internal service funds are considered to be cash and
cash equivalents for statement of cash flow purposes.
## E. RECEIVABLES AND PAYABLES
Activity between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end of the
fiscal year are referred to as either "due to/from other funds" (i.e. the current portion of interfund loan).
All utility and property tax receivables, including those for the EDA, are shown at a gross amount, since both
taxes and utility receivables are assessable to the property taxes and are collectible upon sale of the assessed
property. Uncollectible amounts are not material for other receivables and have not been reported.
The entity's lease receivable is measured at the present value of lease payments expected to be received during
the lease term. Under the lease agreement, the entity may receive variable lease payments that are dependent upon
the lessee's revenue/the lessee's usage levels.
## F. PROPERTY TAX REVENUE RECOGNITION
The City Council annually adopts a tax levy and certifies it to the County in December (levy/assessment date) of
each year for collection in the following year. The County is responsible for billing and collecting all property
taxes for itself, the City, the local school district, and other taxing authorities. Such taxes become a lien on January
1 and are recorded as receivables by the City at that date. Real property taxes are payable (by property owners)
on May 15 and October 15 of each calendar year. Personal property taxes are payable by taxpayers on February
28 and June 30 of each year. These taxes are collected by the County and remitted to the City on or before July 7
and December 2 of the same year. Delinquent collections for November and December are received the following
January. The City has no ability to enforce payment of property taxes by property owners; the County possesses
this authority.
## Government-Wide Financial Statements
The City recognizes property tax revenue in the period for which the taxes were levied. Uncollectible property
taxes are not material and have not been reported.
48
Page 57 of 260
## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
## Governmental Fund Financial Statements
The City recognizes property tax revenue when it becomes both measurable and available to finance
expenditures of the current period. In practice, current and delinquent taxes received by the City in July,
December and January are recognized as revenue for the current year. Taxes collected by the County by
December 31 (remitted to the City following January) and taxes and credits not received at year-end are
classified as delinquent and due from County taxes receivable. The portion of delinquent taxes not collected
by the City in January is fully offset by deferred inflows of resources because they are not available to finance
current expenditures.
## G. SPECIAL ASSESSMENT REVENUE RECOGNITION
Special assessments are levied against benefited properties for the cost or a portion of the cost of special
assessment improvement projects in accordance with State Statutes. These assessments are collectible by the City
over a term of years determined by policy and approved by resolution. Collection of annual installments
(including interest) is handled by the County Auditor in the same manner as property taxes. Property owners are
allowed to (and often do) prepay future installments without interest or prepayment penalties.
Once a special assessment roll is adopted, the amount attributed to each parcel is a lien upon that property until
full payment is made or the amount is determined to be excessive by the City Council or court action. If special
assessments are allowed to go delinquent, the property is subject to tax forfeit sale. Proceeds of sales from tax
forfeited properties are allocated first to the County's cost of administering all tax forfeit properties. Pursuant to
State Statute, a property shall be subject to a tax forfeit sale after three years unless it is homesteaded, agricultural
or seasonal recreational land in which event the property is subject to such sale after five years.
## Government-Wide Financial Statements
The City recognizes special assessment revenue in the period that the assessment roll was adopted by the
City Council. Uncollectible special assessments are not material and have not been reported.
## Governmental Fund Financial Statements
Revenue from special assessments is recognized by the City when it becomes measurable and available to
finance expenditures of the current fiscal period. In practice, current and delinquent special assessments
received by the City are recognized as revenue for the current year. Special assessments that are collected by
the County by December 31 (remitted to the City the following January) are also recognized as revenue for
the current year. All remaining delinquent, deferred, and special deferred assessments receivable in
governmental funds are completely offset by deferred inflows of resources.
## H. ASSETS HELD FOR RESALE
Property is acquired by the City for redevelopment purposes and subsequent sale. Assets held for resale are
reported at the lower of cost or net realizable value based on estimated sales proceeds and selling expenses.
## I. INVENTORY
Inventories are stated at cost, which approximates market, using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method and consist
of waste bins which have not yet been allocated to residents. The cost of inventory is recorded as
expenditures/expense when consumed rather than when purchased in both government-wide and fund financial
statements.

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
## J. PREPAID ITEMS
Certain payments to vendors which reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods are recorded as prepaid
items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. The City uses the consumption method for
accounting prepaid expenses, where the City reports the prepaid items as an asset in the period in which they are
purchased and defers the recognition of the expenditure until the period in which the prepaid items are used or
consumed.
## K. CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, sidewalks,
and similar items), and intangible assets such as easements and computer software are reported in the applicable
governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets,
except infrastructure assets, are defined by the City as assets with an initial, individual cost equal to or greater
than $25,000, or an aggregate cost equal to or greater than $100,000 for a group of similar assets, and an estimated
useful life in excess of 2 years. Accordingly, the amounts spent for the construction or acquisition of infrastructure
assets are capitalized and reported in the government-wide financial statements regardless of their amount.
With the initial capitalization of general infrastructure assets (i.e., those reported by governmental activities), the
City chose to include all such items regardless of their acquisition date or amount. The City’s Pavement
Management Plan contained all historical costs for the City’s general infrastructure assets. As the City constructs
or acquires additional capital assets each period, including infrastructure assets, they are capitalized and reported
at historical cost. The reported value excludes normal maintenance and repairs which are essentially amounts
spent in relation to capital assets that do not increase the capacity or efficiency of the item or extend its useful life
beyond the original estimate. Donated capital assets are recorded at their acquisition value on the date of donation.
Property, plant and equipment of the City are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following
estimated useful lives:
## L. DEFERRED OUTFLOWS AND INFLOWS OF RESOURCES
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred
outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element represents a consumption of net assets that
applies to future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditures) until
that time. The City has two items that qualify for reporting in this category. The City presents deferred outflows
of resources on the Statement(s) of Net position for deferred outflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB.
Deferred outflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB results from the difference between projected and
actual earnings, changes in actuarial assumptions and employer contribution paid to PERA subsequent to the
measurement date.

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position and fund financial statements will sometimes report a
separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of
resources, represents an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized
as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The City has four items that qualify for reporting in this
category. On the Governmental Fund Balance Sheet, The City presents deferred inflows of resources related to
leases and unavailable revenue. Amounts relating to unavailable revenue are deferred and recognized as an inflow
of resources in the period that they become available. Additionally, the City presents deferred inflows of resources
on the Statement(s) of Net Position related to pensions, OPEB, and leases. Deferred inflows of resources related
to pensions and OPEB results from the net difference expected and actual economic experience and changes in
proportion. The deferred inflow of resources is recorded at the commencement of the lease in an amount equal to
the initial recording of the lease receivable, and is recognized as revenue over the lease term.
## M. COMPENSATED ABSENCES
It is the City's policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation, paid time off (PTO),
compensatory time, and sick pay benefits. There is an estimate for a liability for unpaid accumulated sick leave,
as employees may receive up to 320 hours upon retirement only. All leave that is attributable to service already
rendered, accumulated, and is more likely than not to be used for time off or otherwise paid is accrued in the
government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in
governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements.
## N. DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLAN
For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows and inflows of resources, and pension
expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA)
and additions to and deductions from PERA’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as
they are reported by PERA, except that PERA’s fiscal year end is June 30. For this purpose, plan contributions
are recognized as of employer payroll paid dates and benefit payments, and refunds are recognized when due and
payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value.
## O. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-
term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities,
business-type activities, and proprietary fund type statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts, if
material, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method. In the fund
financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance
costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums
received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported
as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are
reported as debt service expenditures.

## P. FUND BALANCE
## Classification
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund classifications that comprise hierarchy based
primarily on the extent to which the City is bound to honor constraints on the specific purpose for which amounts
in those funds can be spent:
Nonspendable Fund Balance – These are amounts that cannot be spent because they are not in spendable
form, such as prepaid items and inventory.
Restricted Fund Balance – These are amounts that are restricted to specific purposes either by a) constraints
placed on the use of resources by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments
or b) imposed by law through enabling legislation.
Committed Fund Balance – These are amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to
constraints imposed by the City Council (highest level of decision-making authority) through resolution.
Committed amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the Council modifies or rescinds the
commitment by resolution.
Assigned Fund Balance – These are amounts that are constrained by the City’s intent to be used for specific
purposes but are neither restricted nor committed. Pursuant to Council resolution, the City Council is
authorized to establish assignments of fund balance.
Unassigned Fund Balance – These are residual amounts in the General Fund not reported in any other
classification. The General Fund is the only fund that can report a positive unassigned fund balance. Other
funds would report a negative unassigned fund balance should the total of nonspendable, restricted and
committed fund balances exceed the total net resources of that fund.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to first use restricted
resources, and then use unrestricted resources as they are needed. When committed, assigned, or unassigned
resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use resources in the following order: 1) committed, 2)
assigned, and 3) unassigned.
## Minimum Fund Balance
It is the City’s policy that at the end of each year, the City will maintain the unrestricted portion of the fund
balance for cash flow in a range equal to 35% to 50% of the General Fund operating expenditures budgeted for
next year. At December 31, 2025 this percentage was 35.4% and therefore the minimum fund balance was met.
## Q. NET POSITION
Net position represents the difference between assets and deferred outflows of resources; and liabilities and
deferred inflows of resources in the government-wide financial statements. Net investment in capital assets,
consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization, reduced by the outstanding balance
of any long-term debt used to build or acquire the capital assets. Net position is reported as restricted in the
government-wide financial statement when there are limitations on use through external restrictions imposed by
creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments.
Minnesota law governs park dedication, debt service, tax increment, housing and economic development, law
enforcement, and public safety aid use.

## R. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
Interfund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues, expenditures, or expenses. Transactions that
constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures/expenses initially made from it are properly applicable to
another fund, are recorded as expenditures/expenses in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of
expenditures/expenses in the fund that is reimbursed. Interfund loans are reported as an interfund loan receivable
or payable which offsets the movement of cash between funds. All other interfund transactions are reported as
transfers.
## S. USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP)
requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from such estimates.
## T. RECLASSIFICATIONS
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year data (such as beginning balances) to conform to the current
year presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the change in net position or total net position as
previously reported.
Note 2 RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
## A. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND
## BALANCE SHEET AND THE GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT OF NET POSITION

## GOVERNMENTAL-WIDE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances total governmental
funds and change in net position of governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of
activities. One element of that reconciliation explains that “Governmental funds report capital outlays as
expenditures. However, in the statement of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated
useful lives and reported as depreciation expense”. The details of this difference are as follows:
## Note 3 DEPOSITS AND INVESTMENTS
## A. DEPOSITS
In accordance with applicable Minnesota Statutes, the City maintains deposits at depository banks authorized by
the City Council, including checking accounts and certificates of deposits.
The following is considered the most significant risk associated with deposits:
Custodial Credit Risk – the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City’s deposits may not be returned to it.
Minnesota Statutes require that insurance, surety bonds or collateral protect all City deposits. The market value
of collateral pledged must equal 110% of deposits not covered by insurance or bonds. Securities pledged as
collateral are required to be held in safekeeping by the City or in a financial institution other than that furnishing
the collateral. Minnesota Statute 118A.03 identifies allowable forms of collateral.
The City’s deposits of $1,671,182 were fully insured or collateralized at December 31, 2025. The City’s
investment policy has no additional deposit policies addressing custodial credit risk.

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
## B. INVESTMENTS
Subject to rating, yield, maturity and issuer requirements as prescribed by statute, Minnesota Statutes 118A.04
and 118A.05 authorize the City to invest in United States securities, state and local securities, commercial paper,
time deposits, temporary general obligation bonds, repurchase agreements, Minnesota joint powers investment
trusts and guaranteed investment contracts.
The City has the following investments at year-end December 31, 2025:
The City categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted
accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset.
The hierarchy has three levels. Level 1 investments are valued using inputs that are based on quoted market
prices. Level 2 investments are valued using inputs that are based on matrix pricing models. Level 3 investments
are valued using inputs that are unobservable.
The money market fund is a First American Government Obligation fund which seeks to maintain a constant net
asset value of $1.00 per share. The securities held by the fund are measured at amortized cost. Shares may be
redeemed without penalty on any business day.
## C. INVESTMENT RISKS
Investments are subject to various risks, the following of which are considered the most significant:
Credit risk – Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder
of the investment. The City’s policy to minimize credit risk includes limiting investing funds to those
allowable under Minnesota Statute 118A, annually appointing all financial institutions where investments
are held, and diversifying the investment portfolio. This is measured by the assignment of a rating by a
nationally recognized statistical rating organization.
Custodial credit risk – For investments, this is the risk that in the event of failure of the counterparty to an
investment transaction the City would not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral
securities that are in the possession of an outside party. The City’s investment policy does not further address
this risk, but the City typically limits its exposure by purchasing insured or registered investments, or by the
control of who holds the securities.
Concentration risk – Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss that may be attributed to the magnitude of
a government’s investment in a single issuer. The City’s investment policy does not limit the concentration
of investments. At December 31, 2025, the following issuers exceeded 5% of the City’s total investment
portfolio:

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Interest rate risk – Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value
of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment, the greater the sensitivity of its fair
value to changes in market interest rates. The City’s investment policy does not address interest rate risk. The
City holds all investments to maturity.
## D. COMPONENTS OF CASH AND INVESTMENTS

## Note 8 DEFINED BENEFIT PENSION PLANS - PERA
## A. PLAN DESCRIPTION
The City participates in the following cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plans administered
by the Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). These plan provisions are established
and administered according to Minnesota Statutes Chapters 353, 353D, 353E, 353G and 356. Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 356 defines each plan’s financial reporting requirements. PERA’s defined benefit pension plans are tax
qualified plans under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
## 1. General Employees Retirement Plan (General Plan)
Membership in the General Plan includes employees of counties, cities, townships, schools in non-
certified positions, and other governmental entities whose revenues are derived from taxation, fees, or
assessments. Plan membership is required for any employee who is expected to earn more than $425 in
a month, unless the employee meets exclusion criteria.
2. Public Employees Police and Fire Retirement Plan (Police and Fire Plan)
Membership in the Police and Fire Plan includes full-time, licensed police officers and firefighters who
meet the membership criteria defined in Minnesota Statutes section 353.64 and who are not earning
service credit in any other PERA retirement plan or a local relief association for the same service.
Employers can provide Police and Fire Plan coverage for part-time positions and certain other public
safety positions by submitting a resolution adopted by the entity’s governing body. The resolution must
state that the position meets plan requirements.
## B. BENEFITS PROVIDED
PERA provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Benefit provisions are established by state statute and
can only be modified by the state legislature. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are
not receiving them yet, are bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
When a member is “vested,” they have earned enough service credit to receive a lifetime monthly benefit after
leaving public service and reaching an eligible retirement age. Members who retire at or over their Social Security
full retirement age with at least one year of service qualify for a retirement benefit.
## 1. General Employees Plan Benefits
The General Employees Plan requires three years of service to vest. Benefits are based on a member’s
highest average salary for any five successive years of allowable service, age, and years of credit at
termination of service. Two methods are used to compute benefits for General Plan members. Members
hired prior to July 1, 1989, receive the higher of the Step or Level formulas. Only the Level formula is
used for members hired after June 30, 1989. Under the Step formula, General Plan members receive
1.2% of the highest average salary for each of the first ten years of service and 1.7% for each additional
year. Under the Level formula, General Plan members receive 1.7% of the highest average salary for all
years of service. For members hired prior to July 1, 1989, a full retirement benefit is available when age
plus years of service equal 90 and normal retirement age is 65. Members can receive a reduced
requirement benefit as early as age 55 if they have three or more years of service. Early retirement
benefits are reduced by 0.25% for each month under age 65. Members with 30 or more years of service
can retire at any age with a reduction of 0.25% for each month the member is younger than age 62. The
Level formula allows General Plan members to receive a full retirement benefit at age 65 if they were
first hired before July 1, 1989 or at age 66 if they were hired on or after July 1, 1989. Early retirement
begins at age 55 with an actuarial reduction applied to the benefit.

Page 75 of 260
## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. The postretirement increase is equal
to 50% of the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) announced by the SSA, with a minimum increase of at
least 1% and a maximum of 1.5%. The 2025 annual increase was 1.25%. Recipients that have been
receiving the annuity or benefit for at least a full year as of the June 30 before the effective date of the
increase will receive the full increase. Recipients receiving the annuity or benefit for at least one month
but less than a full year as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive a prorated
increase.
## 2. Police and Fire Plan Benefits
Benefits for Police and Fire Plan members hired before July 1, 2010, are vested after three years of
service. Members hired on or after July 1, 2010, are 50% vested after five years of service and 100%
vested after ten years. After five years, vesting increase by 10% each full year of service until members
are 100% vested after ten years. Police and Fire Plan members receive 3% of highest average salary for
all years of service. Police and Fire Plan members receive a full retirement benefit when they are age
55 and vested, or when their age plus their years of service equals 90 or greater if they were first hired
before July 1, 1989. Early retirement starts at age 50, and early retirement benefits are reduced by
0.417% each month members are younger than age 55.
Benefit increases are provided to benefit recipients each January. The postretirement increase is fixed at 1%.
Recipients that have been receiving the annuity or benefit for at least 36 months as of the June 30 before the
effective date of the increase will receive the full increase. Recipients receiving the annuity or benefit for at
least 25 months but less than 36 months as of the June 30 before the effective date of the increase will receive
a prorated increase.
## C. CONTRIBUTIONS

## D. PENSION COSTS
## 1. General Employees Fund Pension Costs
At December 31, 2025, the City reported a liability of $4,365,907 for its proportionate share of the
General Employees Fund’s net pension liability. The City’s net pension liability reflected a reduction
due to the State of Minnesota’s contribution of $16 million. The State of Minnesota is considered a non-
employer contributing entity and the state’s contribution meets the definition of a special funding
situation. The State of Minnesota’s proportionate share of the net pension liability associated with the
City totaled $105,319.
The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2025, and the total pension liability used to
calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The City’s
proportion of the net pension liability was based on the City’s contributions received by PERA during
the measurement period for employer payroll paid dates from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025,
relative to the total employer contributions received from all of PERA’s participating employers. The
City’s proportionate share was 0.1317% at the end of the measurement period and 0.1300% for the
beginning of the period.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the City recognized pension expense of ($308,330) for its
proportionate share of the General Plan’s pension expense. In addition, the City recognized an additional

The $438,484 reported as deferred outflows of resources related to pensions resulting from City
contributions subsequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension
liability in the year ended December 31, 2026. Other amounts reported as deferred outflows and inflows
of resources related to pensions will be recognized in pension expense as follows:
## 2. Police and Fire Fund Pension Costs
At December 31, 2025, the City reported a liability of $7,820,558 for its proportionate share of the Police
and Fire Fund’s net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2025, and
the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial
valuation as of that date. The City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability was based on the
City’s contributions received by PERA during the measurement period for employer payroll paid dates
from July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025, relative to the total employer contributions received from all
of PERA’s participating employers. The City’s proportionate share was 0.6675% at the end of the
measurement period and 0.6281% for the beginning of the period.
The State of Minnesota contributed $18 million to the Police and Fire Fund in the plan fiscal year ended
June 30, 2025. The contribution consisted of $9 million in direct state aid that meets the definition of a
special funding situation and $9 million in supplemental state aid that does not meet the definition of a
special funding situation. The $9 million direct state aid was paid on October 1, 2024. The direct state
aid payment will increase by $17.7 million which was paid on October 1, 2025. Thereafter, by October
1 of each year, the state will pay $26.7 million to the Police and Fire Fund until the fund is 110% funded
for a minimum of three consecutive years (on an actuarial value of assets basis). The $9 million in
supplemental state aid will continue until the fund and the State Patrol Plan (administered by the
Minnesota State Retirement System) are 100% funded for three consecutive years (on an actuarial value

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the City recognized pension expense of $1,912,446 for its
proportionate share of the Police and Fire Plan’s pension expense. The City recognized an additional
$131,171 as pension expense (and grant revenue) for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota’s
contribution of $9 million to the Police and Fire Fund special funding situation.
The State of Minnesota is not included as a non-employer contributing entity in the Police and Fire
Pension Plan pension allocation schedules for the $9 million in supplemental state aid, because this
contribution was not considered to meet the definition of a special funding situation. The City
recognized $60,073 for the year ended December 31, 2025 as revenue and an offsetting reduction of net
pension liability for its proportionate share of the State of Minnesota’s on-behalf contributions to the
Police and Fire Fund.
At December 31, 2025, the City reported Police and Fire Fund deferred outflows of resources and
deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:
The $960,715 reported as deferred outflows of resources related to pensions resulting from City
contributions subsequent to the measurement date will be recognized as a reduction of the net pension
liability in the year ended December 31, 2026. Other amounts reported as deferred outflows and inflows
of resources related to pensions will be recognized in pension expense as follows:
The net pension liability will be liquidated by the general, water, sewer, storm, solid waste and golf
funds.

## E. ACTUARIAL METHODS AND ASSUMPTIONS
The total pension liability for each of the cost-sharing defined benefit plans was determined by an actuarial
valuation as of June 30, 2025, using the entry-age normal actuarial cost method and the following actuarial
assumptions:
The long-term investment rate of return is based on a review of inflation and investment return assumptions from
a number of national investment consulting firms. The review provided a range of investment return rates
considered reasonable by the actuary. An investment return of 7.00% is within that range.
Benefit increases after retirement are assumed to be 1.50% for the General Plan and 1.00% for the Police and Fire
Plan.
Salary growth assumptions in the General Plan range in annual increments from 11.50% after one year of service
to 3.00% after 27 years of service. In the Police and Fire Plan, salary growth assumptions range in annual
increments from 10.75% after one year of service to 3.00% after 23 years of service.
Mortality rates for the General Plan are based on the Pub-2010 General Employee Mortality Table. Mortality
rates for the Police and Fire Plan are based on the Pub-2010 Public Safety Employee Mortality tables. The tables
are adjusted slightly to fit PERA’s experience.
Actuarial assumptions for the General Plan are reviewed every four years. The General Plan was last reviewed
in 2022. The assumption changes were adopted by the board and became effective with the July 1, 2023 actuarial
valuation. The Police and Fire Plan was reviewed in 2024. The assumption changes were adopted by the board
and became effective with the July 1, 2025 actuarial valuation.
The following changes in actuarial assumptions and plan provisions occurred in 2025:
## General Employees Fund
## Changes in Actuarial Assumptions:
The combined service annuity loading factors increased from 15% to 19% for vested terminated
members and from 3% to 44% for non-vested, terminated members.
The assumed post-retirement benefit increase changed from 1.25% to 1.50%.
## Changes in Plan Provisions:
The post-retirement benefit increase formula changed to 100% of the Social Security annual
increase, between 1.00% and 1.75%, beginning January 1, 2026. If the funded ratio (on a market
value of assets basis) is less than 85% for the last two consecutive annual valuations or is less than
80% in the most recent actuarial valuation, the maximum is reduced to 1.50%. Previously, the
benefit increase was 50% of the Social Security annual increase, between 1.00% and 1.50%.
The 1.00% additional employer contribution is eliminated when the plan reaches 98% funded status
(on an actuarial value of assets basis); this contribution was previously scheduled to stop when the
plan reached 100% funded status.

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

## Police and Fire Fund
## Changes in Actuarial Assumptions:
Assumed rates of salary increases were reduced slightly.
Assumed rates of retirement were adjusted, resulting in an overall increase in unreduced (full)
retirements and an overall increase in reduced (early) retirements.
Assumed rates of withdrawal were modified; the new rates will increase predicted terminations,
especially in the first few years of employment.
Assumed rates of disabled retirement were significantly increased, especially for ages over age 30.
Continued use of Pub-2010 Public Safety Mortality Table with rates adjusted to better fit observed
experience.
Percent married assumption for female retirees lowered from 70% to 65%.
Minor changes were made to form of payment assumptions for retirees.
Minor changes were made to assumptions made with respect to missing participant data.
The combined service annuity load changed from 33% to 13% for vested, terminated members and
from 2% to 38% for non-vested, terminated members.
## Changes in Plan Provisions:
The period of time needed for benefit recipients to receive their first benefit increase was reduced
by one year (from 36 months to 24 months for a full increase).
The January 1, 2026 benefit increase changed from 1.00% to 3.00%; subsequent January 1 increases
will be 1.00%.
The threshold to end the $9 million annual state aid contribution changed from the earlier of July 1,
2048 or 90% funded for both PERA Police and Fire and MSRS State Patrol for three consecutive
years to 100% funded for both PERA Police and Fire and MSRS State Patrol for three consecutive
years (on an actuarial value of assets basis).
The threshold to end the additional $9 million annual state aid contribution changed from the earlier
of July 1, 2048 or 100% funded for a minimum of three consecutive years to 110% funded for a
minimum of three consecutive years (on an actuarial value of assets basis).
An additional $17.7 million in direct state aid will be paid annually each October 1 beginning
October 1, 2025 through June 30, 2048.
Joint and survivor actuarial equivalent factors were updated to reflect changes in assumptions.
The State Board of Investment, which manages the investments of PERA, prepares an analysis of the
reasonableness on a regular basis of the long-term expected rate of return using a building-block method in which
best-estimate ranges of expected future rates of return are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are
combined to produce an expected long-term rate of return by weighting the expected future rates of return by the
target asset allocation percentages. The target allocation and best estimates of geometric real rates of return for
each major asset class are summarized in the following table:

## F. DISCOUNT RATE
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability in 2025 was 7.00%. The projection of cash flows
used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members and employers will be made
at rates set in Minnesota Statutes. Based on these assumptions, the fiduciary net position of the General Plan and
Police and Fire Plan were projected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current plan
members. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was applied to all periods of
projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.
## G. PENSION LIABILITY SENSITIVITY
The following presents the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability, calculated using the discount
rate disclosed in the preceding paragraph, as well as what the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability

higher (8.00%) than the current discount rate:

.
The Association issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required
supplementary information. That report may be obtained by writing to the Roseville Firefighters’ Relief
Association, 2701 N. Lexington Ave., Roseville, MN 55113.
## B. BENEFITS PROVIDED
Volunteer firefighters of the City are members of the Roseville Firefighter Relief
## Association. Full retirement
benefits are payable to members who have reached age 50 and have completed 15 years of service for monthly
service pension, or 10 years of service for lump sum service pension. Partial benefits are payable to members who
have reached 50 and have completed 10 years of
service.
Disability benefits, widow, and children’s survivor
benefits are also payable to members or their beneficiaries based upon requirements set forth in the bylaws.
These benefit provisions and all other requirements are
consistent with enabling state
statutes.
## C. EMPLOYEES COVERED BY BENEFIT TERMS
At December 31, 2025, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:
## D. CONTRIBUTIONS
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 424A.092 specifies minimum support rates required on an annual basis. The
minimum support rates from the municipality and from State aids are determined as the amount required to meet
the normal cost plus amortizing any existing prior service costs over a ten year period. The City's obligation is
the financial requirement for the year less state aids. Any additional payments by the City shall be used to amortize
any unfunded liability of the relief association. The Association is comprised of volunteers: therefore, there are
no payroll expenditures (i.e. there are no covered payroll percentage calculations). During the year, the City
recognized as revenue and as an expenditure an on behalf payment of $46,043 made by the State of Minnesota
for the Relief Association.
## E. NET PENSION ASSET
The City's net pension asset was measured as of December 31, 2025 and the total pension asset used to calculate
the net pension asset was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.
Actuarial assumptions:
The total pension asset in the December 31, 2025 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial
assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
The value of death benefits is similar to the value of the retirement pension. Because of low retirement ages, the
plan assumes no pre-retirement mortality. Post-retirement mortality does not apply as the benefit structure and
form of payment do not reflect lifetime benefits.
The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method
in which best-estimates of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment
expense) are developed for each major asset class. These asset class estimates are combined to produce the
portfolio long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the current
asset allocation percentage (or target allocation, if available) and by adding expected inflation. All results are then
rounded to the nearest quarter percent and are summarized in the following table:
Discount rate:
The discount rate used to measure the total pension asset was 7.00%. Assets were projected using expected
benefit payments and expected asset returns. Expected benefit payments by year were discounted using the
expected asset return assumption for years in which the assets were sufficient to pay all benefit payments. Any
remaining benefit payments after the trust fund is exhausted are discounted at the municipal bond rate. The
equivalent single rate is the discount rate.

## A. PLAN DESCRIPTION
In addition to providing the pension benefits described in the previous notes, the City provides post-employment
health care benefits (as defined in paragraph B) for retired employees and police and firefighters disabled in the
line of duty, through a single employer defined benefit plan. The term Plan refers to the City’s requirement by
State Statute to provide retirees with access to health insurance. The OPEB plan is by the City. The authority to
provide these benefits is established in Minnesota Statutes Sections 471.61 Subd. 2a, and 299A.465. The benefits,
benefit levels, employee contributions and employer contributions are governed by the City and can be amended
by the City through its personnel manual and collective bargaining agreements with employee groups. The Plan
is not accounted for as a trust fund, as an irrevocable trust has not been established to account for the plan. The
Plan does not issue a separate financial report.

## B. BENEFITS PROVIDED
## Retirees
The City is required by State Statute to allow retirees to continue participation in the City’s group health insurance
plan if the individual terminates service with the City through service retirement or disability retirement.
Employees who satisfy the rule of 90 or attain age 55 and have completed 10 years of service at termination can
immediately commence medical benefits. Retirees may obtain dependent coverage while the participating retiree
is under age 65. Covered spouses may continue coverage after the retiree’s death. The surviving spouse of an
active employee may continue coverage in the group health insurance plan after the employee’s death. All health
care coverage is provided through the City’s group health insurance plans. The retiree is required to pay 100% of
their premium cost for the City-sponsored group health insurance plan in which they participate. The premium is
a blended rate determined on the entire active and retiree population. Since the projected claims costs for retirees
exceed the blended premium paid by retirees, the retirees are receiving an implicit rate subsidy (benefit). The
coverage levels are the same as those afforded to active employees. Upon a retiree reaching age 65 years of age,
Medicare becomes the primary insurer and the City’s plan becomes secondary.
Disabled police and firefighter
The City continues to pay the employer’s contribution toward health coverage for Police or Firefighters disabled
in the line of duty per Minnesota Statute 299A.465, until age 65. Dependent coverage is included, if the
dependents were covered at the time of the disability. The 2025 monthly premiums paid for Police or Firefighters

## NOTE 11 INTERFUND RECEIVABLES, PAYABLES AND TRANSFERS
The City utilizes interfund loans, when available, to finance tax increment activities in order to avoid the costs
associated with issuing bonds. As of December 31, 2025, the Economic Increments Construction Fund owed $10,000
to the Roseville EDA Fund related to such a loan.
Transfers are used to 1) move revenues from the fund with collection authorization to the debt service fund as debt
service principal and interest payments become due, 2) move grant funds to specific funds where the grant dollars are
used (specifically American Recovery Program Act dollars), 3) move unrestricted general fund revenues to finance
various programs that the government must account for in other funds in accordance with budgetary authorizations,
including amounts provided as subsidies or matching funds for various grant programs. The following is a schedule
of interfund transfers as of December 31, 2025:
Total transfers in/out are created to assist in financing various activities and/or projects.
## NOTE 12 TAX INCREMENT FINANCING
The City has entered into five Tax Increment Financing agreements, which meet the criteria for disclosure under
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 77 Tax Abatement Disclosures. The City's authority to
enter into these agreements comes from Minnesota Statute 469. The City entered into these agreements for the purpose
of economic development.
Under the agreements, the City and developer agree on an amount of development costs to be reimbursed to the
developer by the City though tax revenues from the additional taxable value of the property generated by the
development (tax increment). A "pay-as-you-go" note is established for this amount, on which the City makes
payments for a fixed period of time with available tax increment revenue after deducting for certain administrative
costs. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the City generated $2,191,480 in tax increment revenue and made
$1,351,377 in payments to developers.

## Note 13 RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of damage to, and the destruction of assets; errors
and omissions; injuries to employees and natural disasters. During the fiscal years of 1980 and 1987, the City
established a Workers' Compensation Fund and a Risk Management Fund, respectively (internal service funds) to
account for and finance its uninsured risks of loss. During 2025, the Worker’s Compensation Fund provided coverage
up to a maximum of $500,000 for each occurrence. The City purchases excess loss coverage from the Workers'
Compensation Reinsurance Association, a nonprofit organization established by Minnesota State Statutes.
The Risk Management Fund provides comprehensive general liability and comprehensive automotive liability up to
the statutory maximum of $2,000,000. The City retains the risk of the first $100,000 of each occurrence with an annual
maximum exposure of $200,000. Liabilities of the funds are reported if it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the
amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated.
Liabilities include an amount for claims that have been incurred but not reported (IBNRs). The result of the process
to estimate the claims liability is not an exact amount as it depends on many complex factors, such as inflation, changes
in legal doctrines, and damage awards. Accordingly, claims are reevaluated periodically to consider the effects of
inflation, recent claim settlement trends (including frequency and amount of pay-outs), and other economic and social
factors. The estimate of the claims liability also includes amounts for incremental claim adjustment expenses related
to specific claims and other claim adjustment expenses regardless of whether allocated to specific claims.
Estimated recoveries, for example from salvage or subrogation, are another component of the claim’s liability
estimate. The City purchased commercial insurance for claims in excess of coverage provided by the Risk
Management Fund and for all other risks of loss. Settled claims have not exceeded this coverage in any of the past
five fiscal years. There were no significant reductions in the City's insurance coverage in 2025. Enterprise fund charges
and the property tax levy are based on a management estimate of claims history and the amount necessary to maintain
catastrophic reserves. The claims liability of $81,204 and $433,452, for the Workers’ Compensation and Risk
Management funds respectively, reported in both funds at December 31, 2025 are based on the requirements of
Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 10. As of December 31, 2025, the Workers’ Compensation
Fund reported reserves of $448,864, while the Risk Management Fund reported a deficit of $12,291.
The internal service funds are used to account for insurance activities provided to other departments on a
cost-reimbursement basis. The negative net position of the internal service funds at year-end is primarily attributable
to accrued liabilities and timing differences and is expected to be recovered through future service charges.

## NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2025
This statement requires that a liability for claims be reported if information prior to the issuance of the financial
statements indicates it is probable that a liability has been incurred at the date of the financial statements and the
amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated (IBNR). Changes in the funds' claims liability amount in fiscal years
2024 and 2025 were:
## Note 14 COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
## A. FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS
The City receives financial assistance from federal and state governmental agencies in the form of grants. The
disbursement of funds received under these programs generally requires compliance with the terms and conditions
specified in the grant agreements and is subject to audit by the grantor agencies. Any disallowed claims resulting
from such audits could become a liability of the applicable fund. However, in the opinion of management, any
such disallowed claims will not have a material effect on any of the financial statements of the individual fund
types included herein or on the overall financial position of the City at December 31, 2025.
## B. COMMITTED CONTRACTS
The City has construction projects in progress as of December 31, 2025. The projects include the improvement
and construction of streets, water, sewer, and storm systems. At year end the commitments with these contractors

## C. CONTINGENCIES
The City had the usual and customary types of miscellaneous claims pending at year-end mostly of a minor nature,
and usually all covered by insurance carried for that purpose or the City has reserved for settlement. The City also
carries personal injury insurance against suits for false arrest, libel, slander, violation of privacy, wrongful entry,
etc. which can arise from enforcement of the city code and general laws. Although the outcome of these lawsuits
is not presently determinable, in the opinion of the government’s legal counsel the resolution of these matters will
not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the government.
## Note 15 ERROR CORRECTION
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the City identified an error in the financial statements of the prior year
related to the accounting for other services and charges expenses within the water fund. Expense and accounts payable
were understated in 2024 by $977,229, resulting in an overstatement of net position.
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the beginning net position as of January 1, 2025 has
been restated to reflect the correction of this error. The effect of the restatement on the beginning balances was as
follows:
## Note 16 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

## REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
## NOTES TO RSI
December 31, 2025
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States
of America for the governmental funds classified as the General, Recreation, Community Development, Roseville
Economic Development Authority, Telecommunications, License Center, and Charitable Gambling Funds. No
budgets are prepared for other governmental funds which include the debt service and capital projects. All annual
appropriations lapse at fiscal year-end.
On or before mid-May of each year, all departments and agencies of the City submit requests for appropriations to
the City's manager so that a budget may be prepared. Before September 15, the proposed budget is presented to the
city council for review and approval. By September 15, the proposed budget and tax levy must be submitted to the
county auditor. The Council holds public hearings and a final budget and tax levy must be prepared, adopted and
submitted to the county auditor, no later than December 28.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, function and department. The City's department heads may make
transfers of appropriations within the same fund, which only requires the approval of the City's manager, and does
not require Council approval. Transfers of appropriations between funds require the approval of the Council. The
legal level of budgetary control (i.e. the level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is at the
fund level.
## Note A LEGAL COMPLIANCE – BUDGETS
The General Fund budget is legally adopted on a basis consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. The legal level of budgetary control is at the department level for the General Fund
and the fund level for certain Special Revenue Funds.
Expenditures occurred in excess of appropriations in the following funds:
General fund exceeded the budget by $1,209,733. However, actual revenue exceeded the budget by
$1,785,555.
Roseville economic development authority fund exceeded the budget by $164,517. However, actual
revenue exceeded the budget by $198,231.
## Note B OPEB INFORMATION
Assets are not accumulated in a trust that meets the criteria in paragraph 4 of GASB Statement No. 75 to pay related

of the government's property owners whose property is located within the geographic
boundaries of the special district).

*Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the city.
This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping governments that is borne by the
residents and businesses of the City of Roseville. This process recognizes that, when considering the government's
ability to issue and repay long-term debt, theentire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be
taken into account. However, this does not imply that everytaxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible for
repaying the debt, of each overlapping government.

## COMMUNICATION WITH THOSE CHARGED WITH GOVERNANCE
## To the Honorable Mayor and
## Members of the City Council
## City of Roseville, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of
Roseville, Minnesota for the year ended December 31, 2025. Professional standards require that
we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing
standards, Government Auditing Standards, as well as certain information related to the planned
scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you
dated January 9, 2026. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the
following information related to our audit.
## Significant Audit Matters
## Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The
significant accounting policies used by the City of Roseville, Minnesota are described in Note 1
to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of
existing policies was not changed during 2025, except that the City of Roseville increased its
capitalization threshold for certain types of capital assets (see footnote 1.K.). We noted no
transactions entered into by the City of Roseville, Minnesota during the year for which there is a
lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in
the financial statements in the proper period.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management
and are based on management’s knowledge and experience about past and current events and
assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because
of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events
affecting them may differ significantly from those expected.
The most sensitive estimates affecting the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s financial statements are
the:
the estimates used to calculate the net pension liability, the pension related deferred
outflows and inflows of resources, and pension expense
the estimates used to calculate the other post-employment benefit liability and deferred
inflows and outflows
the self-insurance liability and related accounts
Attachment # 2
Page 166 of 260
## City of Roseville, Minnesota
## Communication With Those Charged With Governance
Page 2
These estimates are based on actuarial studies and loss run reports. We evaluated the methods,
assumptions and data used to develop the estimates in determining that they are reasonable in
relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Certain financial statement disclosures are particularly sensitive because of their significance to
financial statement users. Determining sensitivity is subjective, however, we believe the
disclosures most likely to be considered sensitive are Note 8 – Defined benefit pension plans and
Note 15 – Error Correction.
The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear.
## Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our
audit.
## Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified
during the audit, other than those that are clearly trivial, and communicate them to the
appropriate level of management. Management has determined that the effects of uncorrected
misstatements are immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate to the financial statements
taken as a whole. The most significant identified uncorrected misstatement in the 2025 financial
statements relates to the write-off of old utility receivables, resulting in an understatement of
revenue in the following funds of approximately:
$13,500 in the recycling fund
$112,000 in the water fund
$78,000 in the sewer fund
The uncorrected misstatements or the matters underlying them could potentially cause future
period financial statements to be materially misstated, even though, in our judgment, such
uncorrected misstatements are immaterial to the financial statements under audit. In addition,
none of the misstatements detected as a result of audit procedures and corrected by management
were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to each opinion unit’s financial statements
taken as a whole. However, management identified a material error correction that resulted in the
restatement of beginning net position in the 2025 financial statements.
In January 2026, the finance department was notified of invoices that were received by a city
department in 2024 and had not been remitted to finance for payment. The invoices related to
project expenses that should have been accrued as a liability at December 31, 2024. This matter
resulted in a prior period error correction of an approximately $977,000 reduction to beginning
net position, as well as an internal control finding (2025-001) and legal compliance finding
(2025-003).

## Communication With Those Charged With Governance

## Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting
or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the
financial statements or the auditor’s report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements
arose during the course of our audit.
## Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the
management representation letter dated May 4, 2026.
## Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and
accounting matters, similar to obtaining a “second opinion” on certain situations. If a
consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s
financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor’s opinion that may be expressed on
those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to
determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such
consultations with other accountants.
## Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the City of Roseville,
Minnesota’s auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our
professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.
We were unable to substantiate the City’s collateral balance related to deposit accounts held with
BMO Bank as of December 31, 2025. The City closed its accounts with BMO Bank subsequent
to year-end and supporting documentation for the collateral balance in effect prior to account
closure was not retained.
## Other Matters
We applied certain limited procedures to the management discussion and analysis, budgetary
comparison information, and schedules of OPEB and Pension information, which are required
supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our
procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide
any assurance on the RSI.
Page 168 of 260
## City of Roseville, Minnesota
## Communication With Those Charged With Governance
Page 4
We were engaged to report on combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements and
schedules, which accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. With respect to this
supplementary information, we made certain inquiries of management and evaluated the form,
content, and methods of preparing the information to determine that the information complies
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the method of
preparing it has not changed from the prior period, and the information is appropriate and
complete in relation to our audit of the financial statements. We compared and reconciled the
supplementary information to the underlying accounting records used to prepare the financial
statements or to the financial statements themselves.
We were not engaged to report on the introductory report and statistical sections, which
accompany the financial statements but are not RSI. Such information has not been subjected to
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do
not express an opinion or provide any assurance on it.
## Restriction on Use
This information is intended solely for the information and use of the City Council and
management of the City of Roseville, Minnesota and is not intended to be, and should not be,
used by anyone other than these specified parties.

## INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL
## REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT
## OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
## GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
## To the Honorable Mayor and
## Members of the City Council
## Roseville, Minnesota
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government
Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial
statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the
aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Roseville, Minnesota, as of and for the year
ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively
comprise the City of Roseville, Minnesota's basic financial statements, and have issued our
report thereon dated May 4, 2026.
## Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City of
Roseville, Minnesota's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for
designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of
expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Roseville, Minnesota's internal control. Accordingly,
we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Roseville, Minnesota's internal
control.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph
of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be
material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant
deficiencies may exist that were not identified. However, as described in the accompanying
schedule of findings and responses, we identified certain deficiencies in internal control that we
consider to be material weaknesses and significant deficiencies.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented,
or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. We consider the deficiency described in the
accompanying schedule of findings and responses as item 2025-001 to be a material weakness.
Attachment # 3
Page 170 of 260
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that
is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged
with governance. We consider the deficiency described in the accompanying schedule of
findings and responses as item 2025-002 to be a significant deficiency.
## Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s
financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance
with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance
with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However,
providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances
of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing
Standards.
## The City of Roseville, Minnesota’s Response to Findings
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the City of
Roseville, Minnesota’s responses to the finding identified in our audit and described in the
accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The City of Roseville, Minnesota’s responses
were not subjected to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial
statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the responses.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and
compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of
the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral
part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the
City of Roseville, Minnesota’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this
communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES
## For The Year Ended December 31, 2025
## 2025-001 Financial Statement Corrections
Criteria: An entity’s system of internal controls should allow management or employees, in the
normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a
timely basis. Material audit adjustments are considered to be a deficiency in internal control as
defined by auditing standards.
Condition: The 2025 financial statements include a restatement of beginning net position due to
an error correction. An invoice including $977,229 of water fund expenses for services and
charges relating to 2024 was not accrued as a payable at December 31, 2024.
Cause: The City did not identify the missing accrual during the 2024 year-end closing process.
We understand that lack of communication between City departments may have been a
contributing factor.
Effect: Inadequate controls over the year-end closing process results in an increased risk that
financial statement misstatements may occur and not be detected on a timely basis. This matter
also resulted in a legal compliance finding (2025-003).
Recommendation: We recommend the City continue efforts to ensure that all adjustments are
identified during the year-end closing process. Additionally, we recommend that the City take
steps to educate other departments within the City about the importance of communicating with
finance regarding year-end accruals, unpaid invoices and other similar matters.
City Response: The Finance Department agrees with this finding and recognizes a need for
increased internal controls. The Finance Department is working with other departments to create
project codes to track budgeted activity which may have been missed. The Finance Department
will also evaluate year end procedures and implement additional procedures to help minimize
such misstatements in the future.

## CITY OF ROSEVILLE, MINNESOTA
## SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES
## For The Year Ended December 31, 2025
## 2025-002 Internal Controls over Disbursements
Criteria: The City should have adequate internal controls over its disbursements to ensure all
expenditures adhere to public purchase requirements. Additionally, the City should have
adequate segregation of duties over approval of expenditures.
Condition: During the audit, we noted the following matters related to disbursements:
One instance noted where a department head approved their own purchasing card (P-
Card) transaction for $350.
Two instances noted where supporting documentation was not sufficient to provide
details of the specific items purchased in the P-card transactions, totaling $665.74.
One instance noted where the amount of a P-card purchase was cut off from support
provided, and the employee wrote in the missing amount for $69.64.
Four instances noted where there were grocery or meal expense reimbursements
coded to training, however there was no proof of training held included within the
reimbursement request. These instances totaled $437.40.
Cause: We noted the City’s purchasing policies and procedures were not followed related to
segregation of duties over approvals and attaching receipts. In addition, we noted a lack of
internal controls over reimbursement for meals purchased for training to validate meetings
were held at the time meals were provided.
Effect: Lack of adherence to internal controls and inadequate internal controls over
disbursements results in an increased risk that disbursements do not meet a public purpose.
Additionally, there is an increased risk of fraudulent or erroneous payments being made and
going undetected.
Recommendation: We recommend that management develop additional internal controls to
ensure the City’s purchasing policies and procedures are followed. Additionally, we
recommend management enhance the City’s P-card policy to require employees to submit
proof of training held to substantiate the meals provided where meals could be provided
under Union contract. We recommend proof of training include the training agenda,
attendees, location, date(s) and time(s) of training held.
Views of Responsible Officials: The Finance Department agrees with this finding and is in the
process of updating their P-card policy. Additionally, the Finance Department will add
monitoring internal controls over their disbursement approval process to validate adherence to
their P-card policy.

## MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE REPORT
## To the Honorable Mayor and
## Members of the City Council
## City of Roseville, Minnesota
We have audited, 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, the financial statements of the
governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate
remaining fund information of the City of Roseville, Minnesota as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively
comprise the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s basic financial statements, and have issued our
report thereon dated May 4, 2026.
In connection with our audit, we noted that the City of Roseville, Minnesota failed to comply
with provisions of the claims and disbursements section of the Minnesota Legal Compliance
Audit Guide for Cities, promulgated by the State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statute § 6.65,
insofar as they relate to accounting matters as described in the schedule of findings and
responses as item 2025-003. Also, in connection with our audit, nothing came to our attention
that caused us to believe that the City of Roseville, Minnesota failed to comply with the
provisions of the contracting – bid laws, depositories of public funds and public investments,
conflicts of interest, public indebtedness, miscellaneous provisions, and tax increment financing
sections of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Cities, promulgated by the State
Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statute § 6.65, insofar as they relate to accounting matters.
However, our audit was not directed primarily toward obtaining knowledge of such
noncompliance. Accordingly, had we performed additional procedures, other matters may have
come to our attention regarding the City of Roseville, Minnesota’s noncompliance with the
above referenced provisions, insofar as they relate to accounting matters.
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the City of
Roseville Minnesota’s response to the finding identified in our audit and described in the
accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The City of Roseville Minnesota’s response
was not subjected to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements
and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.

results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on compliance. Accordingly, this
communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

## SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES
## For The Year Ended December 31, 2025
## 2025-003 Prompt Payment of Bills
Criteria: Minnesota Statute 471.425 requires that a municipality must pay each vendor
obligation according to the terms of the contract or, if no contract terms apply, within the
standard payment period unless the municipality in good faith disputes the obligation. For
municipalities who have governing boards which have regularly scheduled meetings at least once
a month, the standard payment period is defined as within 35 days of the date of receipt.
Condition: During our audit testing, we noted multiple contractor invoices submitted to the City
which were not paid within 35 days of the date of receipt, as summarized below:
A project pay request for $309,523 was approved for payment on October 2, 2025
and not paid until December 31, 2025.
Project pay requests totaling $1,063,660 were dated December 26, 2024 and not paid
until January 28, 2026.
Cause: Our understanding is that $1,063,660 of invoices were not provided to the finance
department for payment on a timely basis. The delay in payment of the $309,523 pay request was
due to a delay in setting up a new vendor for payment.
Effect: Although no penalties and interest were charged to the City in this circumstance, there is
a risk of incurring finance charges if invoices are not paid timely. Additionally, lack of timely
identification of certain project amounts due resulted in a $977,229 restatement of beginning net
position in the 2025 financial statements.
Recommendation: We recommend the City implement procedures to ensure all invoices are
provided to the finance department so that payment can be made timely. Additionally, we
recommend that the City take steps to educate other departments within the City about the
importance of communicating with finance regarding year-end accruals, unpaid invoices and
other similar matters.
Management Response: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. City staff will work to
ensure timely and prompt payment of invoices within the legally required time limit.

## Item Description: Consider 2026 Community Survey
Page 1 of 3

2Background
3The City of Roseville has historically utilized statistically valid community surveys to benchmark resident
4satisfaction, identify community priorities, and evaluate the effectiveness of City services and initiatives.
5Previous surveys were conducted in 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020, and most recently in 2024 after a brief
6pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
7
8The 2024 survey maintained many historically consistent questions in order to monitor trend data while
9incorporating minor updates to reflect evolving City services and priorities. As the City continues
10implementation of its Strategic Plan, staff is proposing a limited number of minor revisions to the 2026
11survey questionnaire to better align survey questions with the City’s adopted strategic priority areas,
12desired impacts, and long-term success indicators. These changes are intended to establish stronger
13baseline data that can be used to measure progress over time while preserving the integrity of historical
14benchmarking.
15
16Several existing survey questions already provide valuable data related to specific Strategic Plan
17success indicators. The proposed modifications outlined below are intended to further strengthen
18alignment between the community survey and the City’s qualitative success indicators across multiple
19strategic goals.
20
21Remove:
22• Q 26-28 - Related to "new" Cedarholm building
23• Q 56-63 - Related to sales tax/Maintenance Operations Center
24Edit:
25• Q9: Update to measure progress toward the City's vision (Roseville is a vibrant, safe and
26inclusive community)
27• Q13: Update to identify community priorities tied to the strategic plan. There is currently a
28question that helps identify short-term, current and/or urgent problems (Question 5). By updating
29this question, we can gather data on longer-term priorities that can help inform future needs.
30• Q 51-55: Add "sustainability/environmental projects" in response selection
31• Q 77-83: Update to address how housing options are meeting needs in the community. This is
32tied to the Economic Vitality success indicator: "Housing in Roseville is provided in a manner to
33meet the life-cycle continuum."
34New:
35• Add a question related to feeling safe and secure. This is tied to the Responsive Services and
36Safety success indicator: "Community members report feeling safe and secure."
Page 204 of 260
Page 2 of 3
37• Add a question related to multi-modal transportation meeting needs. This is tied to the Economic
38Vitality success indicator: "Roseville residents, workers and visitors have multi-modal options to
39connect to places they want and need (amenities and employment)."
40• Add a question related to any housing challenges residents are facing. This is tied to the
41Economic Vitality success indicator: "Roseville residents feel safe, secure and stable in their
42housing."
43• Add a question to measure city services being responsive to the needs of the community. This is
44tied to various success indicators such as: "Real-time data and information are utilized to
45improve operations, response, and customer service." and "Residents report satisfaction with the
46quality and responsiveness of City services.
47
48Staff is requesting Council feedback on overall priorities, strategic alignment, and policy direction, while
49final question wording will be developed by the survey consultant to ensure neutrality, methodological
50integrity, and statistical validity. The survey will continue to be administered through a statistically valid
51methodology utilizing telephone outreach to a random sample of approximately 400 residents, providing
52a margin of error of approximately +/- 5 percent.
53
54Policy Objectives
55Ongoing community engagement remains essential to assessing resident satisfaction, measuring
56community perceptions, and evaluating progress toward the City’s vision of being a vibrant, safe, and
57inclusive community.
58The community survey serves as a critical performance measurement tool by:
59• Benchmarking resident satisfaction over time
60• Measuring progress toward strategic plan desired impacts and success indicators
61• Informing future policy, service delivery, and budget decisions
62Updating select survey questions will better position the City to track strategic outcomes while
63maintaining continuity with prior surveys.
64
65
## 66Equity Impact Summary
67The community survey continues to include demographic tracking and cross-tabulation to ensure results
68accurately reflect the diversity of Roseville residents. This approach supports the City’s commitment to
69equity by allowing staff and Council to better understand variations in resident experiences across
70demographic groups, identify disparities, and inform more equitable policy and service decisions.
71
72
73Budget Implications
74The 2026 adopted budget includes $30,000 for the community survey. The current proposal from Morris
75Leatherman includes a base cost of $28,000 for a survey of up to 130 questions, with any additional
76questions beyond that amount billed at $250 per question. Staff’s current proposed modifications are
77expected to remain within the approved budget allocation.
78
79Staff Recommendations
80Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the 2026 Community Survey contract as budgeted and
81provide feedback on proposed minor survey updates. Staff further recommends allowing the survey
82consultant flexibility in final question wording to maintain neutrality and methodological validity while
83strengthening alignment with the City’s strategic performance measures.

In Minnesota, cities and counties are permitted to ask the
Legislature for permission to hold a public vote on an increase to
the local sales tax to pay for improvements that are regionally
significant. The sales tax is assessed in the same way as the
state sales tax, meaning that items such as clothes and groceries
are exempt from the tax. During the 2023 Legislative session, the
City of Roseville was given permission to hold a sales tax
referendum this November for the construction of a Public Works
and Parks and Recreation maintenance facility and a new license
and passport center.
56. Prior to this survey, were you YES....................56%

The City will ask voters to approve two questions for a new local
HALF cent sales tax increase for up to twenty years. For your
information, a HALF cent sales tax increase would be 5 cents on
every $10 of taxable purchases in the City of Roseville. The
local sales tax would expire once the approved projects are fully
funded.

A sales tax increase would not only capture sales tax from city
residents, but also from people outside the city who make
purchases in Roseville. A University of Minnesota study projected
almost 64% of the new sales tax revenue would come from people who
live outside of Roseville and use city services.

in sales tax.

The current city budget does not include funding to make these
improvements. If the sales tax increase is not approved, the City
could consider a property tax increase which only Roseville
residents and businesses would pay. These projects could cost the
owner of a $350,000 home in Roseville about $430 per year for the
improvements only.

2024 Findings and Implications
## City of Roseville
## City Demographics:
Roseville remains a balanced first-ring suburban community, with longer residential longevity,
growing population diversity, slowing generational replacement, and decreasing numbers of
renters than in the 2020 study. The median longevity of adult residents is 13.0 years. Twenty-six
percent of the sample report moving to the city during the past five years, while 36% are there
for more than two decades. Sixteen percent report they will move in the next five years, in
contrast, 67% have no plans to leave during the next ten years.
Thirty-one percent of city households classify themselves as “single, no other family at home.”
Five percent are “single parents with children at home.” Twenty-one percent are “married or
partnered, with children at home.” Forty-three percent are “married or partnered with no
children or no children at home.” Sixty-six percent classify themselves as “White.” Eleven
percent are “African-American,” and ten percent are “Asian-Pacific Islanders.” Six percent are
“Hispanic-Latino.” One percent classify themselves as “Native American,” while seven percent
are “mixed/bi-racial.” Women outnumber men by four percent in the sample.
Thirty percent of Roseville households contain residents over 65 years old. Twenty-eight percent
report the presence of adults between the ages of 50 and 64; fifty-four percent contain adults
between the ages of 18 and 49. Twenty-six percent of the households contain school-aged
children or pre-schoolers. Sixty-eight percent own their current homes, while 32% rent.
The average age of respondents is 49.8 years old. Forty-two percent of the sample fall into the
over 55 years age range, while 27% are less than 35 years old. Fifteen percent live north of
Highway 36 and west of Snelling Avenue. Forty-four percent reside north of Highway 36 and
east of Snelling Avenue. Twenty-six percent are south of Highway 36 and east of Snelling
Avenue, while 15% live south of Highway 36 and west of Snelling Avenue.
Forty-seven percent report they are fiscally stressed – either their monthly expenses exceed
current income, or their monthly expenses meet their income, but little or no savings result.
Fifty-one percent report no fiscal stress – either managing comfortably and putting money aside
or managing very well.
## Quality of Life Issues:
Eighty-seven percent, a drop of seven percent in four years, rate their quality of life as either
“excellent” or “good.” In fact, a solid 33% deem it “excellent.” Thirteen percent, up eight

2
percent since the 2020 study rate the quality of life lower. The overall positive rating is in the top
quartile of suburban communities, while the “excellent” rating is 13% higher than the
Metropolitan Area average of 20%.
At 17%, “closeness to family and friends” leads the list of attributes people like most about
living in the community. At 13%, three responses tie: “closeness to job,” “friendly people,” and
“neighborhood/housing.” “Convenient location” places third, at 11%, followed by “parks and
trails,” at nine percent, and “quiet and peaceful,” at seven percent. “Safe,” at six percent, and
“schools,” at five percent, round out the list of statistically significant responses. The most
serious issues facing the city remain “rising crime” at 25%, up eight percent in four years. “High
taxes” and “aging population” rank at 16% and nine percent, respectively. Seven percent each
post “street repair” and “lack of jobs and businesses.” Six percent point to “aging
infrastructure.” A “booster” group of 22%, virtually unchanged from the 2020 result, says there
are “no” serious issues facing the community – over twice as high as the Metropolitan Area
suburban norm.
Eighty-five percent think things in Roseville are generally headed in the “right direction.”
Thirteen percent regard things are “off on the wrong track.” This is primarily due to perceptions
of “rising crime” in the community. A secondary factor contributing to the increase is “high
taxes.”
A very high rating of 86% of the sample reports the general sense of community identity in the
City of Roseville is “very strong” or “somewhat strong”; thirteen percent rate it lower. Eighteen
percent report a closer connection to the City of Roseville “as a whole,” an almost four-fold
increase since the last study, while 43% have a closer connection to their “neighborhood.”
Seven percent report a closer connection to the “School District.” Twenty-three percent
volunteer “family and friends.” And, five percent feel a closer connection to their “workplace.”
As in the 2020 study, intermediary institutions and social precincts are prominent in the
community as cohesive forces. Eighty-eight percent, a ten percent decrease in four years, feel
“welcomed” in the City of Roseville, only eight percent disagree. The major reason for feeling
welcomed is “friendly people,” while the only statistically significant reason for not feeling
welcomed is “not knowing their neighbors.”
In thinking about a city’s quality of life, 24%, down eight percent in four years, feel the most
important aspect is “safety.” Seventeen percent point to “sense of community,” 16% cite “good
schools,” and twelve percent point to “quiet and peacefulness.” Nine percent each post “upkeep
of the city” and “open spaces and natural areas.” Eight percent state “parks and recreational
facilities.” Twenty-one percent believe “reducing crime” is the aspect of the city which needs to
be fixed or improved in the future. Sixteen percent believe “lower taxes” and 11% feel the same
about “better roads” as aspects of the city which need to be fixed or improved in the future.

“More jobs” and “sidewalks” follow at eight percent each. Seven percent cite “more senior
housing,” and six percent point to “more public transit.” Seventeen percent, a decrease of 16%
in four years, think there is “nothing” or are unsure about anything needing fixing or improving.
Thirty-seven percent, a decrease of 16% since the 2020 study, believe there is “nothing” or are
unsure about anything currently missing from the community which, if present, could greatly
improve the quality of life for residents. Seventeen percent would like to see “more jobs”; 14%
would like to see “more sidewalks”; 11% would like to see “more affordable housing”; and 10%
each would like to see “more entertainment opportunities” or “more public transit.”
## Community Characteristics:
In assessing the one or two most important characteristics of a high quality of life community,
48% point to “low crime rate” and 33%, down 10% in four years, choose “good school system.”
This continues the order of the top two choices four years ago. Twenty-four percent pick “sense
of community.” Nineteen percent select “well-maintained properties.” Sixteen percent each
pick “low property taxes” or “job opportunities.” There are five characteristics residents
consider to be of least importance: “variety of shopping opportunities” or “community events
and festivals,” each at 11%, and “high property values,” “well-maintained properties,” or “sense
of community,” all at 10%.
When examining the number or quantity of various community characteristics, majorities of
residents think Roseville has “about the right amount” of 11 of 12 discussed. In the one case
where opinions split almost evenly between “too many” and “too few,” residents are divided on
affordable rental units. The 11 attributes posting higher levels of agreement about sufficient
current numbers are: market rate rental units, condominiums, townhomes, affordable owner-
occupied housing, “move up” housing, higher cost housing, assisted living for seniors, parks and
open spaces, trails and bikeways, service and retail establishments, and entertainment and dining
opportunities.
Eighty-nine percent, virtually unchanged from the 2020 study, are either “very committed” or
“somewhat committed” to stay in Roseville if they were going to move from their current home
to upgrade. Just as impressive, 88% are “committed” to staying in the city if they were going to
move from their current home for downsizing. While most of the small number of residents who
are not “committed” to stay in the city report there is nothing missing or could be improved to
make them more committed to stay, 15% would like to see “lower property taxes” and eight
percent wish for “expanded choices of affordable housing.”
## City Services:
In evaluating specific city services, the mean approval rating is 87.0%, a significant 2.7%
Page 238 of 260

4
increase over the 2020 level. If we consider only residents holding opinions, the mean score is a
higher 89.3%, well within the top 10% of summary ratings in the Metropolitan Area. Over 90%
rate fire protection, emergency medical services, sewer and water, building inspections, animal
control and code enforcement as either “excellent” or “good.” Eighty-nine percent favorably rate
police protection and drainage and flood control. Key reasons for giving services an unfavorable
rating include “poor patrolling,” at 31%, “flooding,” at 18%, “loose animals,” at 16%, and “poor
taste of water,” at 11%. Between 79% and 89% similarly rate street repair and maintenance,
snow plowing, trail and pathway plowing in parks, trail and pathway plowing in neighborhoods,
pathway repair and maintenance in the parks and pathway repair and maintenance in
neighborhoods. The lowest rated service remains street repair and maintenance at 79%, which is
a seven percent increase from the 2020 study. This service rating is now well above the
Metropolitan Area norm of 60%.
## Property Taxes:
Roseville residents remain tax sensitive during the past four years. Forty-six percent think their
property taxes are “high” in comparison with neighboring suburban communities, while 45%, a
10% increase in four years, see them as “about average.” Eighty-five percent, an eight percent
increase, view city services as either an “excellent” or a “good” value for the property taxes paid;
this endorsement level now places Roseville within the top decile of Metropolitan Area suburbs.
While 57% of the sample, a seven percent increase from the 2020 level, would support an
increase in their city property taxes to maintain city services at their current level, thirty-seven
percent, also a seven percent increase, would oppose an increase under these circumstances.
Solid majorities endorse the City continuing to invest in long-term infrastructure projects. By a
94%-5% margin, residents support investing in city roads. An 86%-13% majority favors
investments in water and sewer pipes, and a 77%-21% majority feels the same about city
buildings. An 80%-19% majority is in favor of continued investment in pedestrian pathways, and
a 75%-24% majority endorses continued investments in bikeways. Overall, the average change
in support in comparison with the 2020 study is an insignificant -2.7%, reflecting the stable
consensus in favor of long-term investments during the past four years.

## Sales Tax Referendum:
Respondents were reminded that Minnesota cities and counties are permitted to ask for
legislation to permit a public vote on an increase in the local sales tax to pay for improvements
that are regionally significant. The sales tax is assessed in the same way as the state sales tax,
exempting items such as clothes and groceries. During the 2023 legislative session, the City of
Roseville was given permission to hold a sales tax referendum this November for the
construction of a Public Works and Parks and Recreation Maintenance Facility and a new license
and passport center. Fifty-six percent report awareness of the November sales tax referendum.
They were told the City will ask voters to approve two questions for a new local half-cent sales
tax increase for up to 20 years. The sales tax would expire once the approved projects are fully
funded.
By a 69%-24% majority, residents support the referendum for the construction of a Public Works
and Parks and Recreation Maintenance Facility. Strong support outnumbers strong opposition by
a 13%-5% margin. Supporters base their decision on “reasonable cost,” “like instead of property
tax increase,” and “needed.” Opponents base their verdict on “current inflation and economy,”
“no more tax increases of any kind,” and “not needed.”
They were informed a second referendum question would be required to allow the funds from
the same half-cent sales tax increase to be used to build a new license and passport center. There
would not be a second half-cent sales tax increase if this referendum question passes.
By a 66%-29% majority, residents support the referendum for the construction of a new license
and passport center. Strong support outnumbers strong opposition by a 14%-7% margin.
Supporters again base their decision on “reasonable cost,” “like instead of property tax increase,”
and “needed.” Opponents base their verdict on “current inflation and economy” and “not
needed.”
Next, respondents were read three statements and asked if each one would affect their decisions.
The table below shows the statement, followed by the percentage of respondents who are “more
likely” to support the referenda, “less likely” to support the referenda,” and “makes no
difference” to them.
Page 240 of 260

## Statement More Likely Less Likely
## No
## Difference
A sales tax increase would not only capture sales tax from city residents,
but also from people outside the city who make purchases in Roseville.
A University of Minnesota study projected almost 64% of the new sales
tax revenue would come from people who live outside of Roseville and
use city services.
62% 3% 35%
It is projected with a half-cent sales tax increase that the typical
Roseville resident would pay an additional $55.48 per years in sales tax.
56% 10% 33%
The current city budget does not include funding to make these
improvements. If the sales tax is not approved, the City could consider a
property tax increase which only Roseville residents and businesses
would pay. These projects could cost the owner of a $350,000 home in
Roseville about $430.00 per year for the improvements only.
60% 6% 33%
All of the statements result in at least 56% of the respondents saying they are “more likely” to
support the referenda. The negative impact never exceeds 10%. A consistent 33%-35%, though,
were unmoved by each statement.
## City Government and Staff:
Respondents give the Mayor and Council a job approval rating of 92%, an eight percent increase
in four years, and a disapproval rating of six percent. The current fifteen-to-one approval-to-
disapproval rating of the Mayor and City Council is now within the top five communities in the
Metropolitan Area suburbs. The small disapproval rating stems from perceptions of “poor
spending,” “high taxes,” and “overall poor job.”
Citizen empowerment remains high and shows a significant increase in the four-year interim
between studies. The number of residents -- 22% – who feel they could not have a say about the
way the City of Roseville runs things is well below the suburban norm. This level of alienation is
11% lower than the 2020 level.
Residents award the City Staff a job approval rating of 92%, a nine percent increase from the
2020 level, and a disapproval rating of only five percent. Both the absolute level of approval and
the 18-to-1 ratio of approval-to-disapproval are also among the top in the Metropolitan Area
suburbs. The miniscule disapproval rating stems from “not listening to residents” and “poor
spending.”

## Neighborhoods and Businesses:
Ninety-three percent rate the general appearance of the community as either “excellent” or
“good”; six percent are more critical in their evaluations. “Messy yards” is the chief complaint of
the small number posting a negative judgment. Over the past four years, 49% think the
appearance of Roseville “remained about the same,” while 44%, a 12% increase from the 2020
level, see an “improvement,” and only six percent, a “decline,” a ten percent decrease from the
2020 study. Code enforcement is also highly rated. Ninety-one percent award this service either
an “excellent” or “good” rating, while eight percent are more critical, focusing on “messy yards”
and “loose animals.” Fifty-eight percent are aware Roseville works with organizations to offer a
variety of different housing programs for residential homeowners, including foreclosure
protection, home improvement loans for interior and exterior remodeling, and a land trust
program.
## Garbage Collection:
By a 48%-37% plurality, residents support the City of Roseville changing from the current
system, in which residents may choose from several different haulers to a system where the City
manages trash collection; eleven percent strongly favor this change, while six percent strongly
oppose it. Sixteen percent are unsure.
Supporters of the change base their decision primarily on “less truck traffic,” “lower cost with
one hauler,” “less pollution,” and “better service.” Opponents cite “prefer to choose my own
hauler,” “like current hauler,” and “competition creates lower cost.”
## Curbside Recycling:
Eighty-one percent participate in the curbside recycling program by separating recyclable items
from the rest of their garbage. The 19% who do not participate indicate they “rent or their
association does it,” “do not have enough waste,” and “they think it is too much hassle.” Most
program participants, 74%, down eight percent in four years, put their recyclables out for
collection every two weeks; nineteen percent do so monthly. By a virtual tie of 50%-49%,
participants narrowly favor a change to a weekly collection schedule for recyclables.
Sixty-seven percent of residents are aware of the drop-off site to recycle food scraps and other
organic waste, an increase of 18% in four years. Among aware residents, 14% use the site at least
once a week, 50% use the site at least once a month, and 18% are more sporadic users. Among
Page 242 of 260
## The Morris Leatherman Company
May 2024
8
non-users, two statistically significant reasons are given: “no interest or too much hassle” and
“not enough waste.” Among residents not aware of the organics drop-off site, a projected 14%
would use the site. Among all residents, a projected 16% of households would use a curbside
collection program for compostable waste if it were available.
## Public Safety:
In rating the seriousness of public safety concerns in the City of Roseville, 15% think “drugs”
and “traffic speeding,” at 14% are the greatest concerns. Thirteen percent each feel similarly
about “youth crimes and vandalism” and “break-ins and theft from automobiles.” Eight percent
consider none of these as serious concerns.
Seventy-one percent, down 12% in four years, rate the amount of police patrolling in their
neighborhood as “about the right amount,” while 25%, up ten percent since the last study, think
it is “not enough,” and three percent see “too much.”
## Parks and Recreation:
Ninety-four percent rate the park and recreation facilities in Roseville as either “excellent” or
“good.” Only six percent are more critical. Among the City’s recreational facilities, 38% most
frequently use “trails,” 34% most often use “neighborhood parks,” and 10% most frequently use
“athletic facilities.” Eighteen percent of the City’s households do not use any of these facilities.
Ninety-three percent highly rate the upkeep and maintenance of Roseville City Parks; eight
percent are more critical in their judgments.
Thirty-four percent report household participation in a city-sponsored park and recreation
program. Ninety-six percent are satisfied with their experience. No statistically significant
suggestion was made for offering new or expanding current park and recreation programs.
Thirty-seven, down eight percent since the 2020 study, report household members use the trail
system at least once per week; thirty-five percent, up eight percent, do so several times a month
or just monthly; fourteen percent are less frequent trail users. Fourteen percent report no one in
their household uses the trails at all. In prioritizing expansions or improvements of the City’s
trail system, 38% pick “construction of trails connecting neighborhoods and parks,” while 33%
choose the “construction of additional trails for exercise within parks.” Twenty-one percent,
down eight percent from the 2020 level, choose “construction of trails connecting neighborhoods
and shopping and business areas.”

Sixty-five percent, a decrease of 16% since the 2020 study, are aware of the City’s park
buildings and the newer Cedarholm Community building. Thirty-six percent of the sample have
visited or used one of the new park buildings. One hundred percent of park building visitors rate
their experience as either “excellent” or “good,” and an emphatic 95% would consider using one
of the new park buildings or the Cedarholm Community building again in the future. A nearly-
unanimous 95% feel the current mix of recreational or sports facilities meets the needs of
members of their household.
## Communications Issues:
The City newsletter and the City website are the most often indicated primary sources of
information about the community, at 42% and 20%, respectively. The “grapevine” ranks third, at
13%. Email/e-newsletter is relied upon by eleven percent of the sample. “Social media”
completes the list at 10%. Preferred sources of information about City Government and its
activities are slightly different from the existing communications pattern. This time, the City
publications and newsletters are at the top of the list at 43%, followed by the City website, at
21%. Ten percent choose the City’s Facebook page, while nine percent indicate email, and eight
percent opt for direct mail.
Seventy-six percent receive the “Roseville City News,” and 92% of this group regularly read it.
The reach of the publication is 70% of the community’s households, lower by five percent from
the 2020 level. The newsletter’s effectiveness as an information channel is highly rated. Ninety-
three percent, an increase of nine percent since the 2020 study, see it as “effective” in keeping
them informed about activities in the city.
Social media usage among Roseville residents has changed since the 2020 study. Seventy-seven
percent use the City website, sixty-two percent use “email,” and 61% use Facebook. Forty-eight
percent use “YouTube,” 40% tweet, and 37% use “Nextdoor.” Thirty-five percent, over three
times the 2020 level, report using other social media sites. Over 70% of the users of five social
media sources would be likely to use each to obtain City information: the “City website,”
“email,” “other social media sites,” “Facebook,” and “Nextdoor.”
Eighty-seven percent rate the City’s overall performance in communicating key local issues to
residents as either “excellent” or “good.” Thirteen percent are more critical in their evaluations.
This rating remains among the top five in the Metropolitan Area.

## Conclusions:
As in the 2020 study, the key issues in 2024 facing decision-makers is addressing perceptions
about “rising crime,” particularly “drugs,” “youth crimes and vandalism,” and “automobile
break-ins and theft.” Unlike other suburbs, concerns about crime in Roseville have not seriously
eroded the high levels of approval and support for the quality of life, fiscal management of the
community, direction of the city, tax tolerance, government job ratings, and sense of community.
So far, the City has done a comparatively good job tempering the concern about crime. Since
48% rate “safety” as the most important aspect of city’s future quality of life, “crime”— together
with its prevention and reduction – should continue to be given a high place in the discussion of
issues, policies, and resource allocation. Additionally, worries about “speeding traffic” and
“more police patrolling” will need to be discussed and a framework for policy goals considered.
While perceptions of city property taxes have worsened across the Greater Metropolitan Area
suburbs, the general hostility is far more moderate in Roseville than the regional trend would
suggest. Even so, it should be considered a more limiting factor in using additional funds to
maintain and augment services. While 46% still see their property taxes as “high,” this is nine
percent lower than the current suburban average. A corresponding seven percent increase in the
number of residents willing to increase their property taxes to maintain city services, indicates
residents are more tolerant to a discussion of additional funding to continue to provide city
services at their current level. It is also a testament to the high ratings city services are granted.
The proposed sales tax referenda are in the most curious position MLC has encountered this
year. The 69% and 66% support levels do not deviate significantly among all demographic
groups. Since 2024 is a presidential year, turnout will be at its usual maximum level. Only two
demographic groups register even high levels of support: households containing 18-24 year olds,
and residents in the Southeast or Southwest quadrant of the community. The major
communications challenge facing supporters is to aggressively inform voters that the second
question does not request approval of another half-cent sales tax increase. In addition, as always,
another challenge will be to make sure voters know the referenda are on the ballot – a surprised
voter usually votes against a referendum.
Community development efforts should continue to focus on helping seniors stay in the
community and provide younger adults options to move into the city. Moderate concerns
continue about assisted living opportunities for seniors. This perception is in line with the very
high levels of commitment to staying in the city if residents moved from their current homes.
The parks and recreation system remains the “crown jewel” in the City’s quality of life. Usage is
still higher than expected viewed against the demography of the community. Park buildings and
the newer Cedarholm Community Building are very well-received by the public. Trails and
Page 245 of 260

11
neighborhood parks play an unusually large and growing role in city life, acting as key
ingredients in the strong sense of community. No strong consensus is present on future city trails
and sidewalk expansions: thirty-eight percent support the construction of trails connecting
neighborhoods and parks, 33% favor the construction of additional trails for exercise within
parks, and 21% prioritize the construction of trails connecting neighborhoods and shopping and
business areas.
Information levels about City Government activities remain extremely high in comparison with
neighboring communities. Positive ratings of the Mayor, City Council and City Staff are among
the top of the Metropolitan Area. “Roseville City News,” the City newsletter, and the City
website are very well used and exceptionally well regarded. In fact, the City newsletter continues
to possess higher readership and effectiveness ratings than most peer communities.
Citizens remain enthusiastic about their City. At a time when government at different levels
polarizes people, Roseville residents are overall extremely satisfied with their local government
and its services. With a 22% “city booster” core, the City still possesses a large reservoir of
goodwill which has served it well.
## Methodology:
This study contains the results of a sample of 400 randomly selected adult residents residing in the City of Roseville. Professional
interviewers conducted the survey by telephone between April 18
th
and May 7
th
, 2024. The typical respondent took seventeen
minutes to complete the questionnaire. The non-response rate was 5.5%. The results of the study are projectable to all adult City
of Roseville residents within ± 5.0% in 95 out of 100 cases.

by the people who live here, but he managed to get you to raise
our taxes to pay for it. Even though the things is younger than my
youngest child.
- Admitting in 2023 or 2024 that the 10 year projection as wrong
and it needed to go a lot, so our taxes have gone up.
- Not taking responsibility for the mess up with our utility bills a
few years ago, and getting the board to charge us to his office's
mistake. Ooops! Just another oops.
- Putting up the idea of spending our emergency fund on a
protective slide for the police with no talk about it in the city
council because it needed to be signed that day or our neighbors
would not get our help. That was crappy.
- Then take that and the final straw is the "action" taken on ICE
running around our streets, where his only offering was to put up
signs. Signs! That was it. That was what the person who makes
6 figures comes up with.
It is time the city manager be put on a PPP plan and really show
they can work with the money they have, work for the citizens of
the town not just the chiefs so we can prosper as a city and not
play catch up to the mistakes he has made over the years that I
have been here.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and acknowledge, even
if you choose to do nothing about it, that you took this into
consideration when performing the performance review.
