The County Auditors Office is pleased to present the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report CAFR ofthe County of Victoria Texas the County for the year ended December 31 2009 This report issubmitted in compliance with Texas Local Government Code 114025
Responsibility for both the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of thepresentation including all disclosures rests with the County We believe the data as presented isaccurate in all material aspects that it is presented in a manner designed to fairly set forth the financialposition and results of operations of the County as measured by the financial activity of its various fundsand that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the Countysfinancial affairs have been included
The County Auditor serves as the Chief Financial Officer for Victoria County By statute the Auditor reportsto the State District Judges This provides for an independent review of County financial operationsseparate from the CommissionersCourt the legislative and executive branch of county government TheCounty Auditor is responsible for accounting systems design audit functions required by law generalcontrol of finances and ensuring that the County meets its fiduciary responsibilities to taxpayers with regardto County finances by strictly enforcing the statutes governing County finances as provided by the localgovernment code As an appointed County Official and as a Certified Public Accountant the CountyAuditor takes an oath to uphold the Constitution and the laws of the State of Texas
In developing and evaluating the Countysaccounting system consideration is given to the adequacy ofinternal accounting controls Internal accounting controls are designed to provide reasonable but notabsolute assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets against loss from unauthorized use ordisposition and the reliability of financial records for preparing financial statements The concept ofreasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of a control should not exceed the benefits likely to bederived and the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management
All internal control evaluations occur within the above framework We believe that the Countys internalaccounting controls adequately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance of proper recording offinancial transactions

In compliance with Texas Local Government Code 115045 the financial statements and notes containedin this report have been audited by the independent auditors of Harrison Waldrop and Uherek LLPafirm of licensed certified public accountants The independent auditors report is included in the FinancialSection of this report
When other accounting bases conflict with state law Texas and its political subdivisions may follow thestatutory provisions of Chapter 2264 Texas Government Code Accordingly in 2008 the County followedthe statutory basis of accounting which is an other comprehensive basis of accounting provided but notmandated by this statute For the County the only difference between generally accepted accountingprinciples GAAP and the statutory basis of accounting is in the reporting of other postemploymentbenefits OPEB
The statutory basis differs from GAAP in that the Countyspresentation of OPEB on the financialstatements uses the statutory modified accrual basis This basis accurately and fairly sets forth thefinancial position of the County by i measuring the cost of benefits according to their adoption by thegoverning body of the County and by iiproviding an accurate assessment of OPEB liabilities and extent oftheir funding for the time for which the benefits were adopted Under GAAP GASB Statement No 45GASB 45 Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other Than
Pensions defines an OPEB liability to include amounts the governing body has not authorized nor promisedto employees and for which there is no legally enforceable liability The County has concluded thatrecognizing an OPEB liability as defined by GASB 45 would result in publishing financial statements that arematerially misleading It would also be inconsistent with State financial laws and misrepresent the naturescope and duration of the financial activities of the County
Management has provided a narrative introduction overview and analysis to accompany the basic financialstatements in the form of a ManagementsDiscussion and Analysis MDA The letter of transmittal isdesigned to complement the MDA and should be read in conjunction with it The MDA can be found inthe Financial Section of this report
PROFILE OF VICTORIA COUNTY

The Commissioners Court sets the tax rates establishes policies for County operations approvescontracts for the County and develops and adopts the County budget The Commissioners Court is alsoresponsible for development of policies and orders approving financial commitments and appointment ofvarious department heads The management and leadership provided by members of the CommissionersCourt and the elected and appointed officials of other key County offices is crucial to the success of theCounty in financial management and growth
Honorable District JudgesHonorable County JudgeHonorable County CommissionersCounty of Victoria

The County provides a full range of services The County provides many services not ordinarily provided byany other entity of government and provides additional services in cooperation with other localgovernmental units A primary service is the administration of justice which includes the civil and criminalcounty and district courts justices of the peace constables district attorney investigators clerks of thecourts sheriff jail security and emergency management and grand jury bailiffs Other functions
performed by the County include the construction and maintenance of roads and bridges eitherindependently or in cooperation with other entities administration of public health services assistance toindigents and the provision of juvenile health education and welfare services involving the care andcorrection of dependent or delinquent children as well as property tax collections for multiple agencies
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the Countys financial planning and control Budgethearings are posted annually in July and August by the County Judge with the final budget approved by theCommissioners Court following the hearings The final budget includes contingency line items Most
appropriated budgets are prepared by fund department and category The level of budgetary control thelevel at which expenditures cannot legally exceed the appropriated amount is established at the lineitemlevel within an individual fund The original budget may be amended by Commissioners Court underconditions prescribed by Texas Local Government Code Section 111010 Budgettoactual comparisonsare provided in this report for each governmental fund for which an appropriated budget has been adopted
Various potential component units were evaluated to determine whether they should be included in theCountys reporting entity because of the significance of their operational and financial relationship with theCounty Based upon standards established by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board see Note 1to the financial statements three component units have been included in this years report the VictoriaCounty Navigation District the Victoria County Child Welfare Board and Citizens Medical Center Theseentities are discretely presented and are not considered part of the primary government of the County Thisreporting method was used because while the entities are financially accountable to the County they donot have substantively the same governing body as the County nor do they provide services exclusively tothe County
FACTORS AFFECTING FINANCIAL CONDITION
The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood when it is consideredfrom the broader perspective of the specific environment within which the County of Victoria operates
Local Economy The County is one of the leading regional economies in the seven county GoldenCrescent region The County has developed into a primary business center with growth in services andretail employment The Countys principal economic activities include petrochemical and industrialchemical plants plastics manufacturers heavy steel fabrication prestressed concrete oil and gasexploration medical services professional and financial servicesretail trade and higher educationAlthough the oil and gas petrochemical industries remain a vital component of the area employment basediversification within these industries into production of ancillary goods and plastics has reduced economicvulnerability to energy price fluctuations
The County records reflect modest debt levels rapid principal amortization and acceptable reserve levelsthat have benefited from sound fiscal management practices The County practices conservative budgetingand sets General Fund reserve targets at 15 to 25 of annual expenditures In the past year the Countyincurred a decrease in the General Fund unreserved fund balance as a result of several one timeexpenditures and revenues coming in lower than expected The CountysGeneral Fund reserve target isbased on the Countyspolicy of deferring ad valorem property taxes The resulting unreserved fundbalance does not include 36 million in ad valorem taxes collected in October November and Decemberof 2009 and are instead reported as deferred revenues

LongTerm Financial Planning The County of Victoria has identified several long term issues that needto be prioritized and funded by the Commissioners Court These priorities include adding an additionalcourtroom for the increasing caseload of jury trials resolving inadequate parking around the Courthousecomplex and making major infrastructure improvements to the jail The County issued Certificates ofObligation on April 9 2010 to reimburse the General Fund for one time expenditures that were incurred in2008 and 2009 and to fund some of the long term issues stated above
Cash Management The Commissioners Court has adopted a formal investment policy for the Countyconsistent with State statutes governing the investment of County funds and has designated the CountyTreasurer as the Countys investment officer The policy is updated annually The general objectives setforth in the policy provide for financial security and optimum liquidity of County funds while achieving themaximum yield on funds invested and maximum levels of invested funds Authorized investments areconsistent with those investments authorized by State law for Texas counties Currently the County haslimited its investments to certificates of deposits and money market funds
Risk Management The County has risk exposure in various areas including general liability workerscompensation automobile liability and property damage To reduce its risk exposure in these areas theCounty purchases commercial insurance policies from a private carrier The related policies carry variousdeductibles and aggregate maximum loss totals
The County is also exposed to risk of loss in the area of employee health coverage In this area theCounty bears all risk of loss up to 85000 per participant per year Coinsurance through a privateinsurance carrier assumes all risk for individual participants past that level Please refer to the notes to thefinancial statements for a complete discussion of the Countys employee health insurance operations
Pension Benefits The County provides retirement disability and death benefits for all of its full timeemployees through a nontraditional defined benefit pension plan in the statewide Texas County and DistrictRetirement System TCDRS Specific plan provisions are adopted by the County within the optionsavailable in the state statutes governing the TCDRS Benefit amounts are determined by the sum of theemployees contributions to the plan with interest and employer financed monetary credits The level ofthese monetary credits is adopted within the constraints imposed by the TCDRS Act so that the resultingbenefits can be expected to be adequately financed

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The new financial reporting model instituted by Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement 34GASB 34 seeks to improve operational accountability by highlighting an overall picture that was lost in the detailof fund accounting Instead of focusing on aggregations of similar individual funds GASB 34 introducedgovernment wide financial statements which present the government as a single unified entity

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
Governmentwide Financial Statements The governmentwide financial statements which consist of thefollowing two statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the Countys finances in amanner similar to a privatesector business
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the Countys assets and liabilities with the differencebetween the two reported as net assets Over time increases or decreases in net assets may serve as a usefulindicator of whether the financial position of the County is improving or deteriorating
The statement of activities presents information showing how the governmentsnet assets changed during 2009All changes in net assets are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occursregardless of the timing of related cash flows Thus revenues and expenses are reported in this statement forsome items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods eg uncollected taxes and earned butunused vacation leave
Both of these financial statements distinguish functions of the County that are principally supported by taxes andintergovernmental revenues governmental activities from other functions that are intended to recover all or asignificant portion of their cost through user fees and charges business type activities The governmentalactivities of the County include general government public safety highways and streets culture and recreationand public health The business type activities of the County include the airport Navarro project and othercommissary
The governmentwide financial statements include not only the County itself known as the primary governmentbut also the component units of Victoria County Navigation District Victoria County Child Welfare Board andCitizens Medical Center These component units are not included as part of the primary government
The governmentwide financial statements can be found on pages 13 16 of this report
Fund financial statements A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control overresources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives The County like other state and localgovernments uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance related legalrequirements All of the funds of the County can be divided into three categories governmental funds proprietaryfunds and fiduciary funds
Governmental funds Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported asgovernmental activities in the governmentwide financial statements However unlike the governmentwidefinancial statements governmental fund financial statements focus on nearterm inflows and outflows ofspendable resources as well as a balance of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year Suchinformation may be useful in evaluating a governmentsnearterm financing requirements
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the governmentwide financial statements it isuseful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented forgovernmental activities in the governmentwide financial statements By doing so readers may better understandthe long term impact of the governments near term financing decisions Both the governmental fund balancesheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues expenditures and changes in fund balances provide areconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities
The County maintains several individual governmental funds Information is presented separately in thegovernmental funds balance sheet and in the governmental funds statement of revenues expenditures andchanges in fund balances for the General Fund which is considered a major fund Data from the other
governmental funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation Individual fund data for each of thesenonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining and individual statements and schedulesfollowing the required supplementary information

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS Continued
The County adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund road and bridge special revenue fundsand debt service fund A budgetary comparison schedule has been provided for the General Fund todemonstrate compliance with this budget and is located on pages 98105 of this report Budget comparisons arepresented for the road and bridge special revenue funds and the debt service fund on pages 106110 of thisreport
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 17 20 of this report
Proprietary funds The County maintains two different types of proprietary funds Enterprise funds are used toreport the same functions presented as businesstype activities in the governmentwide financial statements TheCounty uses enterprise funds to account for its airport Navarro project and other enterprise activitiescommissary Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate cost internallyamong the Countys various functions The County uses an internal service fund to account for its employeehealth insurance services Because this service predominantly benefits governmental rather than businesstypefunctions it has been included within governmental activities in the governmentwide financial statements
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the governmentwide financial statements only in moredetail The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the airport and for the Navarroproject both of which are considered to be major funds of the County and other commissary
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 21 24 of this report

The largest portion of the Countysnet assets 7507 reflects its investment in capital assets eg landbuildings improvements machinery and equipment less any related debt used to acquire those assets that isstill outstanding The County uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens consequently these assetsare not available for future spending Although the Countys investment in its capital assets is reported net ofrelated debt it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from othersources since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities
The County has restricted net assets of 479495 which represent resources that are subject to externalrestrictions on how they may be used The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets9108490 may beused to meet the governmentsongoing obligations to citizens and creditors
At the end of the current year the County is able to report positive balances in all three categories of net assetsboth for the government as a whole as well as for its separate governmental and business type activities

FINANCIAL ANALYSIS OF THE GOVERNMENTSFUNDS
As noted earlier the County uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance relatedlegal requirements
Governmental funds The focus of the Countysgovernmental funds is to provide information on near terminflows outflows and balances of spendable resources Such information is useful in assessing the Countysfinancing requirements In particular unreserved fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a governmentsnet resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year
As of the end of the current year the Countysgovernmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of6984104 a decrease of4260824 in comparison with the prior year Of the total fund balance6924581constitutes unreserved fund balance and is available for spending at the Countysdiscretion The remainder offund balance is reserved to indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already beencommitted for a variety of other purposes 59523
General Fund The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the County At the end of the current yearunreserved fund balance of the General Fund was3965140 while total fund balance was4024663 As ameasure of the General Fundsliquidity it may be useful to compare both unreserved fund balance and total fundbalance to total fund expenditures Unreserved fund balance represents 1293 of total General Fundexpenditures while total fund balance represents 1313 of that same amount
The fund balance of the Countys General Fund decreased by4344159 during the current year This decreaseis due to revenues including sales and use tax interest income fines and forfeitures and contract jail inmatescoming in significantly lower than expected The decrease in fund balance is also due to the following
784000 budgeted in revenue for Certificates of Obligation reimbursement to the General Fund that didnot occur until April of 20101200000 transfer to the Health Insurance Fund due to claims being higher than anticipated in theCountysself funded insurance plan135000 for the remainder of the Airport building removal project which began in 2008 in which severaldeteriorating 56 year old buildings were demolished and removed form the Airport property93000 for architectural services for planned building renovations and the demolition of the old TaxOffice located on the Courthouse grounds

COUNTY OF VICTORIA TEXASNOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31 2009
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The County of Victoria Texas the County is a political subdivision of the State of Texas the State The
County is governed by the Commissioners Court composed of four 4 County Commissioners and theCounty Judge all of whom are elected officials
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board GASB is the accepted primary standard setting body forestablishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles to the extent that its rules do notconflict with State financial laws and the State Constitution The codification of GASB Statements and
Interpretations and any amendments thereto define the Governmental Accounting and Financial ReportingStandards that constitute generally accepted accounting principles GAAP for governmental units GASBrecognizes that the establishment of accounting standards for states and local governments which werecreated by states is a power retained by the states
Prior to 2008 the County prepared financial statements in accordance with GAAP because it did not conflictwith State financial laws and the State Constitution However the County has concluded that complying withrecently issued GASB Statement No 45 GASB 45 Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers forPostemployment Benefits Other than Pensions OPEB would result in publishing financial statements thatare materially misleading It would also be inconsistent with State financial laws and misrepresent the naturescope and duration of the financial activities of the County
Beginning in 2008 the County prepared its financial statements using the statutory basis of accountingprovided by the State in Chapter 2264 Texas Government Code Chapter 2264 Financial Accounting andReporting the Statutory Basis This Statutory Basis is a comprehensive basis of accounting other thanGAAP that is consistent with State financial laws and the State Constitution The statutory accountingpractices as prescribed in Chapter 2264 amend or supersede portions of GASB pronouncements
The only departure from GAAP as a result of applying the Statutory Basis of accounting is in the accountingfor and reporting of OPEB GASB 45 requires state and local governments to establish standards for themeasurement recognition and display of other postemployment benefits expense expenditures relatedliabilities and note disclosures in the financial statements The Statutory Basis differs from GAAP in thatGAAP requires a government to report an OPEB liability even when the government has not promised orcontracted to fund future benefits and when there is no legally enforceable liability In other words GASB 45does not distinguish between a government that has a legally enforceable liability and a government that doesnot nor does it distinguish between a government that has promised benefits and a government that has notIn addition GASB stated in paragraph 77 of GASB 45 the Board affirmed its general presumptions and thatof other standards setters that an employer that has established a pattern of providing postemployment benefitshas accepted responsibility to provide those benefits Such presumptions may result in materially misleadingfinancial statements and may be contrary to State law and the actions of the governmentsgoverning body
The Statutory Basis of accounting provides an accounting basis for the County to report any legallyenforceable OPEB liability it may have incurred based on the CountysSubstantive Plan A Substantive
Plan is defined in Chapter 2264 as a plan providing OPEB approved by the governing body of the planprovider according to the laws and Constitution of the State The Statutory Basis is consistent with thedefinition and characteristics of a liability defined in GASB Concepts Statement No 4 Elements of FinancialStatements as a present obligation to sacrifice resources that the government has little or no discretion toavoid No promises of continuing retirement healthcare benefits beyond 2009 have been made toemployees by the Commissioners Court The County has included communications both in informationprovided to employees and in the annual financial statements that specifically state that the decision toprovide these benefits is made on an annual basis

H Derivative Instruments
As a strategy to maintain acceptable levels of exposure to the risk of changes in future cash flows due tointerest rate fluctuations and to lower its borrowing costs when compared against fixed rate debt at thetime of issuance the Medical Center entered into six separate total return swap agreements and onefixed pay interest rate swap agreement related to its Series 1994 revenue bonds The total return swapagreements effectively changed 100 of the Series 1994 revenue bonds to a variable interest rateobligation The fixed pay swap agreement effectively converted 10000000 or approximately 50 ofthe Series 1994 debt back to a fixed rate of 305 which is lower than the original effective fixedinterest rate of the 1994 bonds

A control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management oremployees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions to prevent or detectmisstatements on a timely basis A significant deficiency is a control deficiency or combination of controldeficiencies that adversely affects the Countys ability to initiate authorize record process or reportfinancial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is morethan a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the Countys financial statements that is more thaninconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the Countys internal control
A material weakness is a significant deficiency or combination of significant deficiencies that results inmore than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not beprevented or detected by the Countysinternal control

Compliance and Other Matters
