LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL

Phone: 423-753-1666 [email protected]

November 20, 2019

TO: Members of the Board of County Commissioners and the Citizens of Washington County, Tennessee

The comprehensive annual financial report of Washington County, Tennessee, for the fiscal year ended June

30, 2019, is hereby submitted. This report consists of management's representation of the finances of

Washington County. Consequently management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and

reliability of all information presented in this report. To the best of our knowledge the information is correct in

all material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and results of

operations of Washington County.

The county is required to undergo an annual audit in conformity with Government Auditing Standards and

federal "Single Audit" requirements contained in part 200 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations. Information

related to this single audit, including the findings and recommendations and the auditor's reports on the

internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and regulations are included as part of this report.

This report includes all funds of the county as well as all its component units. Component units are legally

separate entities for which the county is financially accountable and include the Washington County Board of

Education and the Washington County Emergency Communications District

Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) immediately follows the independent auditor's report and

provides an overview and analysis of the financial statements, our capital asset and debt administration and

economic factors affecting Washington County. The MD&A supplements this letter of transmittal and should

be read in conjunction with it.

Financial Information

Management of Washington County is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls designed

to ensure that all assets of the county are protected from loss, theft, or misuse and that adequate accounting

data are compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements conforming to generally accepted

accounting principles. The internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance that these

objectives are met. Recognizing that the cost of control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and

the evaluation of costs and benefits is subject to estimates and judgments of management.

As a recipient of State and Federal funding the county is also responsible for insuring that its system of internal

controls provides compliance with applicable laws and regulations related to the funding programs. As a part

8

of the county's audit, tests are made to determine the adequacy of the controls including that portion relating to State and Federal programs and to determine County compliance with applicable laws and regulations.

Independent Audit

The State of Tennessee requires (TCA 9-3-211} that an annual audit be made of the accounts, financial records and transactions of all county departments. The Comptroller of the Treasury of the State of Tennessee elected to perform this year's annual audit.

Budgeting Controls

Washington County operates under the County Fiscal Procedure Law of 1957 (TCA 5-13-101} and as such is subject to the budgetary controls set forth in this act. The objective of these budgetary controls is to set forth a standard of accounting and reporting in accordance with legal provisions and government accounting standards. The budgetary controls also ensure compliance with the annual budget appropriations approved by the County Commission. The General Fund, Solid Waste Fund, Highway Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds, General Purpose School Fund, and Capital Project Fund are included in the annual budget appropriations.

Profile of the Government

Policy-making and legislative authority are vested in the Board of County Commissioners consisting of twentyfive members elected from ten commission districts across the County. The Commission is responsible for, among other things, adopting resolutions, adopting the budget, establishing the tax levy, appointing committees, and confirming appointments of the County Mayor. County Commissioners are elected to a term of four years.

Operations of County Government are the responsibility of various elected and appointed County Officials including the County Mayor, Sheriff, Trustee, County Clerk, Register of Deeds, Assessor of Property, Circuit Court Clerk, Clerk and Master, Director of Schools, and the Chief Administrative Officer of the County Highway Department.

Washington County is limited in its scope and power to that granted by the Tennessee General Assembly. Therefore, the authority for any action taken by Washington County must come from within the scope of powers granted by the General Assembly, either in the form of a general law or private act.

Economic Conditions and Outlook

Washington County's retail economy experienced a modest increase in FY2019 over FY2018 of 0.3%. Sales tax

collections for July 2019 through October 2019 are up approximately 3.7%.

Property tax (ad valorem} is the primary revenue source for general county operations and provides a significant source of revenue for the county's two school systems. Therefore, changes in the county-wide assessed values are key metrics for projecting county property tax revenues. Real and personal property assessment values increased 0.77 % in calendar year 2018 as compared to 2017. Fiscal 2019 is the third year to reflect the County

Commission's $0.40 increase in the property tax rate from $1.98 to $2.38 per $100 of assessed value. The components of the increase were to place $0.31 into the County's Capital Projects Fund, $0.05 into the County's General Fund, $0.01 into the County Highway Fund and $0.03 into the County's General Purpose School Fund.

The calendar 2019 tax rate was set at $2.15. The 2019 assessed value of real and personal property tax increased approximately 11.1% over calendar 2018. The unemployment rate stood at 4.2% in June 2019 as compared to 4.3% in June 2018, 5.7% in June 2016, 6.4% in June 2015, 7.3% in June 2014, 8.1% in June 2013, 7.5% in June 2012, a high of 9.0% in June 2011, and 8.7% in January 2010. Local unemployment at fiscal yearend was slightly higher than the state average of 4.0%.

9

According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Washington County continues to rank 11th of the 95 counties

in Tennessee with a 4.2% increase in calendar year 2018 per capita income, 2.8% increase in 2017, a 1.5%

increase in 2016 and a 4.7% gain in 2015.

The number of rural residential county building permits for FY2019 was up approximately 20.6% over FY2018.

Based on value, the increase was 22.6%. Municipal permits were down 13% in number and 18% in value for

the same period.

Healthy reserves and conservative management and budgeting have allowed Washington County to maintain

its strong financial position in 2019 and continue the current level of services for the near-term. With the fiscal

2021 budget process commencing in just a few months, the trend of slow but steady growth in our tax base

and local economy will again be reflected in conservative revenue estimates and careful scrutiny of new

spending requests.

A priority for Washington County will continue to be accelerating growth in our local economy and the tax base

through strategic investment opportunities in school facilities, retail development, public infrastructure and

other economic development initiatives that stimulate private sector investment and long-term growth in the

property and sales tax bases, create or retain jobs, and improve the quality of our workforce.

Long-term Financial Planning

Long-term financial planning for the operating budgets of Washington County will continue to be based on

conservative revenue projections, close scrutiny of new spending requests and preservation of fund balances.

Investment opportunities that stimulate growth in the tax base or private sector job creation remain high

priorities.

Long-term capital investments in new facilities and equipment or improvements to existing assets are now

provided through the Capital Projects Fund, which was created and funded in June of 2016. Capital needs are

prioritized on a rolling 10-year forecast and recurring revenue from the tax rate is allocated to provide

funding. This disciplined approach to identifying and funding the capital needs of Washington County will pay

long-term dividends in the form of stable property tax rates, meeting capital needs in a timely manner

and insuring existing assets are properly maintained and improved as required to sustain their functionality

and prevent premature and costly replacement.

Acknowledgements

The preparation of this Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) could not have been accomplished

without the effort and dedication of the Finance Department staff, the County Officials and their staff, and the

Director of Schools and his staff. We express our sincere appreciation to each of these for their commitment to

a job well done and for serving the citizens of Washington County.

Respectfully submitted,

FINANCIAL SECTION

Independent Auditor's Report

Washington County Mayor and Board of County Commissioners Washington County, Tennessee

To the County Mayor and Board of County Commissioners:

Report on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Washington County, Tennessee, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the county’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes 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.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the Washington County Emergency Communications District, which represent 3.8 percent, 3.1 percent, and 4.8 percent, respectively, of the assets, net position, and revenues of the aggregate discretely presented component units. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Washington County Emergency Communications District, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or

15

error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions

In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Washington County, Tennessee, as of June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General and Highway/Public Works funds for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Required Supplementary Information

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis; and the schedule of changes in the county’s net pension liability and related ratios, schedules of county and school contributions, schedules of school’s proportionate share of the net pension liability, and schedules of county and school changes in the total other postemployment benefits liability and related ratios, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing 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 and Other Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise Washington County’s basic financial statements. The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, budgetary comparison schedules of nonmajor governmental funds and the General Debt Service and General Capital Projects funds, combining and individual fund financial statements of the Washington County School Department (a discretely presented component unit), miscellaneous schedules, and the other information such as the introductory section, management’s corrective action plans, and statistical section are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards is also presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200,

16

Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards, and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements, budgetary comparison schedules of nonmajor governmental funds and the General Debt Service and General Capital Projects funds, combining and individual fund financial statements of the Washington County School Department (a discretely presented component unit), schedule of expenditures of federal awards, and miscellaneous schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such 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, budgetary comparison schedules of nonmajor governmental funds and the General Debt Service and General Capital Projects funds, combining and individual fund financial statements of the Washington County School Department (a discretely presented component unit), schedule of expenditures of federal awards, and miscellaneous schedules are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

The introductory section, management’s corrective action plans, and statistical section have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated November 27, 2019, on our consideration of Washington County’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 Washington County’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 Washington County’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Very truly yours,

Justin P. Wilson Comptroller of the Treasury Nashville, Tennessee

WASHINGTON COUNTY, TENNESSEE Management’s Discussion and Analysis

As management of the Washington County, Tennessee Government, we offer readers of our financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the Washington County, Tennessee Government for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. We encourage readers to consider the information presented in this Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. This discussion and analysis focuses on the primary government and the Washington County Board of Education, a discretely presented component unit. It does not include discussion of the Washington County Emergency Communications District, another discretely presented component unit.

Financial Highlights Primary Government

• The liabilities and deferred inflows of the Washington County Primary Government exceeded itsassets and deferred outflows at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $27,664,009 (netposition). Washington County has the obligation on 100% of the debt while all the buildingsowned by the Board of Education are recorded on their books.

• The government’s total net position increased by $12,960,663 primarily as the result of increasesin capital assets, including construction-in-process on a K-8 school, and retirement of long-termdebt. The K-8 facility was transferred to the Board of Education in August 2019.

• As of the close of the current fiscal year, Washington County Government's governmental fundsreported combined ending fund balances of $40,768,148, a decrease of $10,954,584 incomparison with the prior year. The decrease was due primarily to capital expenditures forconstruction. Of the $40,768,148 of combined governmental ending fund balances, $14,574,988(35.8%) is available for spending at the government's discretion (unassigned fund balance).

• At the end of the current fiscal year, the General Fund unassigned fund balance was $14,574,988or 36% of the total General Fund expenditures.

• The county legislative body’s audit committee is independent of county management and isultimately responsible for advising management in meeting its internal control and financialresponsibilities. The committee consists of two members of the legislative body and three citizenswho have significant experience and expertise in financial, accounting and internal controlmatters. The committee regularly reviews the county’s various audit reports; meets with thecounty’s independent auditors; deliberates financial, accounting and internal control matters; and makes recommendations to the Washington County legislative body for their consideration andimplementation.

• The various budgets are reviewed by the Board of County Commissioners before a decision ismade on the tax levy. The level of reserves and the ability to raise unlimited property taxesprovide the county with significant financial flexibility for the foreseeable future.

Component Unit-School Board • The assets of the Washington County Board of Education, a component unit, exceeded its

liabilities and deferred inflows at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $81,162,411.• The Washington County Board of Education’s net position increased by $2,221,610.

Overview of the Financial Statements This discussion and analysis are intended to serve as an introduction to Washington County's basic financial statements. Washington County's basic financial statements consist of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the financial statements. This report also contains other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements themselves.

18


Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of Washington County's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.

The statement of net position presents information on all of the Washington County Government's assets, liabilities and deferred inflows/outflows, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of Washington County is improving or deteriorating.

The statement of activities presents information showing how Washington County Government's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused vacation leave).

Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of Washington County that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other 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 Washington County include general government, finance, administration of justice, public safety, public health and welfare, social, culture and recreation, agriculture and natural resources, highways, education, and interest on long term debt. The activities of the Washington County Board of Education, a discretely presented component unit, are governmental in nature while the Washington County Emergency Communications District, a discretely presented component unit are business-type activities.

The government-wide financial statements can be found on Exhibits A and B 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. Washington County, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of Washington County 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.

19


Washington County maintains eight 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 Fund, Highway Fund, General Capital Projects Fund and the General Debt Service Fund, all of which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other four governmental funds (solid waste/sanitation, drug control, constitutional officers and rural debt service) 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.

Washington County adopts an annual appropriated budget for its General Fund and Highway Fund. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the general and highway funds to demonstrate compliance with this budget.

The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on Exhibits C-1 through C-6 of this report.

Proprietary fund. Washington County has one proprietary fund, an internal service fund (Employee Insurance – Health Fund) to account for the county’s self-insured health programs. Because this service predominantly benefits governmental rather that business-type functions, it has been included within the governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. The proprietary fund financial statements provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements but with greater detail. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on Exhibits D-1 through D-3 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 statement because the resources of those funds are not available to support Washington County'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 on Exhibit E 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. The notes to the financial statements can be found immediately behind Exhibit E of this report.

Other information. In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information concerning the progress in funding its obligation to provide pension and OPEB benefits to its employees. Required supplementary information can be found on Exhibits F-1 through F-8 of this report.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can be found on Exhibits G-1 through G-5 of this report.

Financial statements for the Washington County School Board of Education are presented on Exhibits J-1 through J-10 of this report. This component unit does not issue separate financial statements.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of Washington County, combined with the Board of Education, net position was $53,498,402 at the close of the most recent fiscal year.

By far the largest portion of the net position reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery, and equipment), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. Washington County uses these capital assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although Washington County'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.

The primary government's net position increased by $12,960,663 during the current fiscal year primarily due to strong tax collections, payments on long-term debt and a conservative approach to operational costs. The Board of Education’s net position increased by $2,221,610 from strong tax collections, increased state funding, and a reduction in operating expenses. Key elements of these changes are as follows:

Financial Analysis of the Government's Funds

As noted earlier, Washington County uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.

Governmental funds. The focus of Washington County's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing Washington County's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.

As of the end of the current fiscal year, Washington County's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $40,768,148, a decrease of $10,954,584 in comparison with the prior year. Approximately 36% of the ending fund balance, or $14,574,988 constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available for spending at the government's discretion. The remainder of fund balance consists of a nonspendable portion in the amount of $20,229, a restricted portion of $18,542,146, a committed portion of $5,498,523, and an assigned portion of $2,132,262.

The General, General Debt Service, Highway, and General Capital Projects funds are reported as major funds.

The General Fund is the chief operating fund of Washington County. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $14,574,988, which is a decrease of $987,569 from the prior year. The nonspendable fund balance was $20,229, restricted fund balance was $571,924 and assigned fund balance was $2,132,262. There were no committed fund balances. The total fund balance was $17,299,403. As a measure of the General Fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Unassigned fund balance represents 36% of total General Fund expenditures while total fund balance represents 43% of that same amount.

The General Debt Service Fund has a total fund balance of $6,613,212, which is an increase of $1,015,309 from the prior year. The fund balance is restricted for the payment of debt service. The county levies a portion of its property tax specifically for debt service and produced total local tax revenue of $13,504,048 in the current fiscal year. This represents an increase of $2,908,078 over the prior year.

The Highway Fund has a total fund balance of $6,625,153, which is an increase of $855,303 from the prior year. The fund balance is restricted for the payment of maintenance and capital cost for the county’s approximately 973 miles of roads and bridges. The County levies a portion of its property tax specifically for Highway Fund operations and produced total local tax revenue of $5,071,513 in the current fiscal year. This represents an increase of $52,517 from the prior year.

The General Capital Projects Fund is used to account for revenues and expenditures for large capital projects. The General Capital Projects Fund has a total fund balance of $9,245,998, which is a decrease of $12,270,574 from the prior year. The primary funding for these capital projects is derived from the tax levy and the issuance of general obligation bonds and notes. The county did not issue any debt in the current fiscal year. The county also levies a portion of its property tax specifically for capital project purposes and produced total local tax revenue of $6,899,258. Other revenues (principally grant revenue and fees, fines and taxes that allocated to the various funds based on the property tax rate) amounted to $233,546. Total revenue decreased $3,920,370 from the prior year.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights

The County Commission approved and adopted its 2019 annual operating budget in June 2018. The original General Fund operating budget was balanced through the use of $673,229 of fund balance.

During the year, the County Commission approved a total of $1,554,433 in amendments to the General Fund operating expenditures during 2019 and total amendments of $287,718 to the General Fund revenue budget.

Actual revenues were less than budget by $912,984 and actual expenditures and other financing sources were $2,335,976 less than budget for an overall positive budget variance of $1,422,992. The favorable variance in expenditures resulted from conservative spending by General Government, Constitutional Offices, Public Safety, and Public Health.

Additional information on the General Fund Budgetary Highlights may be found on Exhibit C-5 of this report.

Capital Asset and Debt Administration

Capital Assets. Washington County's investment in capital assets as of June 30, 2019 amounts to $98,207,259 (net of accumulated depreciation) and $72,792,191 for the Board of Education (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings and system, improvements, machinery and equipment, roads, and bridges.

Additional information on the Washington County Government's capital assets can be found in Note IV-B. of this report.

Long-term debt. At the end of the current fiscal year, Washington County had total debt outstanding of $159,718,878. Of this amount, $155,750,000 comprises debt backed by the full faith and credit of the government. The capital outlay notes of $2,560,000 are secured by the taxing power of the county as is the $1,408,878 non exchange financial guarantee. The primary government is obligated for the long-term debt related to the assets of Washington County Board of Education. Total education-related debt amounted to $125,869,809 (79%) of outstanding debt.

Washington County has recorded as a long-term liability its guarantee of 22.5% of the Tri Cities Airport Authority Aerospace Park bond issue as more fully described in Note IV. F. to the Financial Statements. The Nonexchange Financial Guarantee totaled $1,408,878 at June 30, 2019, and the county is prefunding an escrow account in order to retire the county’s share of the bond guarantee within the next five years.

Since nearly all services rendered by the county are required by the state and require sizable investments in capital improvements, counties are not limited as to the amount of indebtedness [Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) Section 9-21-103]. However, when a county's debt ratio of outstanding debt to property values exceeds the state average or a national standard recognized by firms who trade municipal bonds, the county will pay a higher interest rate or be unable to issue additional bonds.

Any county debt issuance must first be authorized by resolution adopted by the county legislative body and then approved by the state Director of Local Finance, a division of the state Comptroller of the Treasury. Before the Director of Local Finance will approve notes, the county must adopt a balanced budget, which must also be approved by this same director [TCA Section 9-21-403 to 404].

During fiscal 2019, Washington County made $6,755,000 of scheduled debt retirements on its general obligation bonds, capital outlay notes, and public building authority loan agreements.

Capital Investment Plan

Since 2016 Washington County has been funding a long range Capital Investment Plan. The plan is a formal strategy of long-term financial planning that utilizes a rolling ten year forecast of prioritized capital investment needs, estimated costs of each item and a predictable stream of revenue from which to fund the improvements. The plan establishes a systematic approach to funding capital maintenance and improvements to county-owned facilities, equipment and infrastructure in order to extend the useful life, improve functionality and minimize replacement costs. Creation of the Capital Investment Plan has also allowed the county to adopt a “pay as you go” strategy for many of the ongoing capital investment needs which will limit borrowing, minimize interest paid and provide long-term tax rate stability through disciplined budgeting of committed funding.

Major projects include construction of a $28 million K-8 school in the Boones Creek community, a $5 million multi-purpose park/athletic facility, and a $3.4 million expansion of the Washington County Industrial Park which were initiated in fiscal 2018. During the current year ending June 30, 2019, projects initiated included $640,000 in school technology capital, school roof replacements of $1.5 million, school boiler replacement of $200,000. Other future projects include replacement of the Jonesborough middle and elementary schools with a new K-8 and athletic fields at an estimated cost of $32 million, $2 million of road improvements, $4 million in general county government building improvements, $3.2 million in school technology upgrades and $4.7 million in school bus replacements over the next 5 years. Total tax and other revenues collected in fiscal year 2019 were approximately $7.1 million. The Boones Creek K-8 was completed in July of 2019 and transferred to the Board of Education in August of 2019. The park and athletic facility is expected to be completed in early fiscal 2021.

Property Tax

The property tax rate was unchanged in fiscal year 2019 from the previous year. The County Commission adopted a property tax rate for tax year 2018 (fiscal year 2019) of $2.3798 per $100 of assessed value. A summary of Washington County’s property tax rates for the past ten years can be found on Table 6 of the statistical schedules of these financial statements.

Economic Factors

• The county’s primary source of revenue is an ad valorem tax on the assessed value of real andtangible property located within the geographic boundary of the county. The assessed value ofthe real and personal property tax base increased 0.77 % in fiscal 2019.

• The county's retail economy continues to experience modest growth. Retail sales for 2019 wereup approximately 1.8% over 2018. It should be noted that 100% of the sales tax payable to thecounty is dedicated to education and is split, based on an average daily attendance factor,between the Washington County Board of Education and the Johnson City Board of Education.

• Based on data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis, Washington County ranked 11th inTennessee in per capita personal income ($43,299) and experienced a 4.2% increase in calendar2018 over calendar 2017. Tennessee experienced a 3.6% overall increase in the same measure.The American Community Survey estimated the five-year average median household income forWashington County to be $44,180.

• The unemployment rate stood at 4.2% in June 2019 as compared to 4.3% in June 2018. The highwas 9.8% in January 2010. Local unemployment at fiscal year-end was slightly higher than thestate average of 4.0%. The relative stability of Washington County’s employment picture can beattributed to the county’s diversified and stable job base.

Healthy reserves, conservative management and budgeting, and a diverse and stable tax base and local economy allowed Washington County to maintain its strong financial position in 2019 and continue the current level of services for the near-term.

Exhibit C-4

Washington County, TennesseeReconciliation of the Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances of Governmental Funds to the Statement of ActivitiesFor the Year Ended June 30, 2019

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statementof activities (Exhibit B) are different because:

Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds (Exhibit C-3) $ (10,954,584)

(1) Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in thestatement of activities, the cost of these assets is allocated over their usefullives and reported as depreciation expense. The difference between capital outlaysand depreciation is itemized as follows: Add: capital assets purchased in the current period $ 20,351,770 Less: current-year depreciation expense (3,848,540) 16,503,230

(2) The effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving capital assets (sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to increase (decrease) net position: Less: book value of capital assets disposed (26,185)

(3) Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide currentfinancial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds. Add: deferred delinquent property taxes and other deferred June 30, 2019 $ 1,457,083 Less: deferred delinquent property taxes and other deferred June 30, 2018 (1,138,219) 318,864

(4) The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, notes, other loans, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while the repaymentof the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financialresources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effectof premiums, discounts, and similar items when debt isfirst issued, whereas these amounts are deferred and amortized in thestatement of activities. This amount is the effect of these differencesin the treatment of long-term debt and related items: Add: principal payments on bonds $ 2,040,000 Add: principal payments on notes 565,000 Add: principal payments on other loans 4,150,000 Less: change in nonexchange financial guarantee (1,408,878) Add: change in unamortized premium on debt issuances 1,528,598 Less: change in deferred amount on refunding debt (894,935) 5,979,785

(5) Some expenses reported in the statement of activities do not requirethe use of current financial resources and therefore are not reportedas expenditures in the governmental funds. Change in accrued interest payable $ 46,358 Change in OPEB liability 858,080 Change in net pension asset/liability 1,506,134 Change in deferred outflows related to pensions (276,427) Change in deferred inflows related to pensions (793,216) Change in deferred outflows related to OPEB 92,091 Change in deferred inflows related to OPEB (1,078,207) Change in compensated absences payable (102,474) 252,339

(6) Internal service funds are used by management to charge the cost of employee health benefits to individual funds. The net revenue (expense) ofcertain activities of the internal service fund is reported with governmentalactivities in the statement of activities. 887,214

WASHINGTON COUNTY, TENNESSEE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

For the Year Ended June 30, 2019

I. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Washington County’s financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is responsible for establishing GAAP for state and local governments. The following are the more significant accounting policies of Washington County:

A. Reporting Entity

Washington County is a public municipal corporation governed by an elected 15-member board. In February 2016 Washington County’s board voted to decrease the number of board members effective for the new term beginning September 1, 2018. Washington County was previously governed by an elected 25-member board through August 31, 2018. As required by GAAP, these financial statements present Washington County (the primary government) and its component units. The component units discussed below are included in the county's reporting entity because of the significance of their operational or financial relationships with the county. Discretely Presented Component Units – The following entities meet the criteria for discretely presented component units of the county. They are reported in separate columns in the government-wide financial statements to emphasize that they are legally separate from the county.

The Washington County School Department operates the public school system in the county, and the voters of Washington County elect its board. The School Department is fiscally dependent on the county because it may not issue debt, and its budget and property tax levy are subject to the county commission’s approval. The School Department’s taxes are levied under the taxing authority of the county and are included as part of the county’s total tax levy.

The Washington County Emergency Communications District provides a simplified means of securing emergency services through a uniform emergency number for the residents of Washington County, and the Washington County Commission appoints its governing body. The district is funded primarily through a service charge levied on telephone services. Before the issuance of most debt instruments, the district must obtain the county commission’s approval.

52

The Washington County School Department does not issue separate financial statements from those of the county. Therefore, basic financial statements of the School Department are included in this report as listed in the table of contents. Complete financial statements of the Washington County Emergency Communications District can be obtained from its administrative office at the following address:

Administrative Office:

Washington County Emergency Communications District P.O. Box 448 Johnson City, TN 37605

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 units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. However, when applicable, interfund services provided and used between functions are not eliminated in the process of consolidation in the Statement of Activities. Governmental activities are normally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues. Business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on fees and charges, are required to be reported separately from governmental activities in government-wide financial statements. However, the primary government of Washington County does not have any business-type activities to report. Likewise, the primary government is reported separately from certain legally separate component units for which the primary government is financially accountable. The Washington County School Department component unit only reports governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. The Statement of Activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function. Program revenues include (1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Washington County issues all debt for the discretely presented Washington County School Department. There were no debt issues contributed by the county to the School Department during the year ended June 30, 2019.

53

Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary fund (internal service), and fiduciary funds. The internal service fund is reported with the governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements, and the fiduciary funds are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.

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 fund and fiduciary funds financial statements, except for agency funds, which have no measurement focus. Revenues are recorded when earned, and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Fund financial statements of Washington County are organized into funds, each of which is considered to be a separate accounting entity. Each fund is accounted for by providing a separate set of self-balancing accounts that constitute its assets, deferred outflow of resources, liabilities, deferred inflow of resources, fund equity, revenues, and expenditures/expenses. Funds are organized into three major categories: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. An emphasis is placed on major funds within the governmental category. Washington County reports one proprietary fund, an internal service fund. It has no enterprise funds to report. Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary fund, and fiduciary funds. Major individual governmental funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. All other governmental funds are aggregated into a single column on the fund financial statements. The internal service fund and the fiduciary funds in total are reported in single columns by fund type. 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 become 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 county considers revenues other than grants to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met and the revenues are available. Washington County considers grants and similar revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days after year-end.

54

Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund liability is incurred. Principal and interest on long-term debt are recognized as fund liabilities when due or when amounts have been accumulated in the General Debt Service Fund for payments to be made early in the following year. Property taxes for the period levied, in-lieu-of tax payments, sales taxes, interest, and miscellaneous taxes are all considered to be susceptible to accrual and have been recognized as revenues of the current period. Applicable business taxes, litigation taxes, state-shared excise taxes, fines, forfeitures, and penalties are not susceptible to accrual since they are not measurable (reasonably estimable). All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when the county receives cash.

Proprietary fund and fiduciary funds financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus, except for agency funds, which have no measurement focus, and the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized when earned, and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met. Washington County reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund – This is the county’s primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Highway/Public Works Fund – This special revenue fund accounts for transactions of the county’s Highway Department. Local and state gasoline/fuel taxes are the foundational revenues of this fund. General Debt Service Fund – This fund accounts for the resources accumulated and payments made for principal and interest on long-term general obligation debt of governmental funds. General Capital Projects Fund – This fund accounts for general capital expenditures of the county.

Additionally, Washington County reports the following fund types:

Internal Service Fund – The Employee Insurance - Health Fund accounts for the primary government’s self-insured health program. Premiums charged to the various county funds and employee payroll deductions are placed in this fund to pay the claims of county employees.

55

Agency Funds – These funds account for amounts collected in an agency capacity by the constitutional officers, local sales taxes received by the state to be forwarded to the various cities in Washington County, Johnson City school system’s share of educational revenues, assets held in a custodial capacity for the East Tennessee Railway Authority, state grants and other restricted revenues held for the benefit of the Judicial District Drug Task Force, and restricted revenues held for the benefit of the Office of District Attorney General. Agency funds are custodial in nature (assets equal liabilities) and do not involve measurement of results of operations. They do, however, use the accrual basis of accounting to recognize receivables and payables.

The discretely presented Washington County School Department reports the following major governmental fund:

General Purpose School Fund – This fund is the primary operating fund for the School Department. It is used to account for general operations of the School Department.

Additionally, the Washington County School Department reports the following fund type:

Special Revenue Funds – These funds account for and report the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects.

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. 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. The county has one proprietary fund. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services in connection with the fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the county’s internal service fund is self-insurance premiums. Operating expenses for the internal service fund include various self-insured insurance program expenses and fiscal agent charges.

56

D. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position/Fund Balance

1. Deposits and Investments

For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows of the internal service funds, cash includes cash on deposit with the county trustee. State statutes authorize the government to make direct investments in bonds, notes, or treasury bills of the U.S. government and obligations guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies; deposit accounts at state and federal chartered banks and savings and loan associations; repurchase agreements; the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool; bonds of any state or political subdivision rated A or higher by any nationally recognized rating service; nonconvertible debt securities of certain federal government sponsored enterprises; and the county’s own legally issued bonds or notes. The county trustee maintains a cash and internal investment pool that is used by all funds and the discretely presented Washington County School Department. Each fund’s portion of this pool is displayed on the balance sheets or statements of net position as Equity in Pooled Cash and Investments. Most income from these pooled investments is assigned to the General Debt Service Fund. Washington County and the School Department have adopted a policy of reporting U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. agency obligations, and repurchase agreements with maturities of one year or less when purchased on the balance sheet at amortized cost. Certificates of deposit are reported at cost. Investments in the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool are reported at amortized cost using a stable net asset value. The primary oversight responsibility for the investments and operations of the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool rests with the Funding Board of the State of Tennessee (Funding Board). The Funding Board has established an investment policy that is administered by the state treasurer. These polices were designed to comply with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, state statutes require the state treasurer to administer the pool under the same terms and conditions, including collateral requirements, as prescribed for other funds invested by the state treasurer. Compliance with Funding Board polices is audited by the Tennessee Comptroller of the Treasury, Division of State Audit. The latest audit opinion issued by the Division of State Audit concluded that the State Treasurer’s Investment Pooled complied with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

57

All other investments are reported at fair value. No investments required to be reported at fair value were held at the balance sheet date.

2. Receivables and Payables

Activity between funds for unremitted current collections outstanding at the end of the fiscal year is referred to as due to/from other funds. All property tax receivables are shown with an allowance for uncollectibles. The allowance for uncollectible property taxes is equal to 0.89 percent of total taxes levied. Property taxes receivable are recognized as of the date an enforceable legal claim to the taxable property arises. This date is January 1 and is referred to as the lien date. However, revenues from property taxes are recognized in the period for which the taxes are levied, which is the ensuing fiscal year. Since the receivable is recognized before the period of revenue recognition, the entire amount of the receivable, less an estimated allowance for uncollectible taxes, is reported as a deferred inflow of resources as of June 30.

Property taxes receivable are also reported as of June 30 for the taxes

that are levied, collected, and reported as revenue during the current fiscal year. These property taxes receivable are presented on the balance sheet as a deferred inflow of resources to reflect amounts not available as of June 30. Property taxes collected within 60 days of year-end are considered available and accrued. The allowance for uncollectible taxes represents the estimated amount of the receivable that will be filed in court for collection. Delinquent taxes filed in court for collection are not included in taxes receivable since they are neither measurable nor available.

Property taxes are levied as of the first Monday in October. Taxes become delinquent and begin accumulating interest and penalty the following March 1. Suit must be filed in Chancery Court between the following February 1 to April 1 for any remaining unpaid taxes. Additional costs attach to delinquent taxes after a court suit has been filed.

Most payables are disaggregated on the face of the financial statements. Other current liabilities of the General Fund consist of balances for benefit plan payments not drawn as of June 30, 2019. Other current liabilities of the discretely presented School Department’s General Purpose School Fund consist of balances of employee federal tax deposits and insurance premium payments not drawn as of June 30, 2019. Claims and judgments payable are discussed in Note V.A. Risk Management.

58

Retainage payable in the primary government’s Highway/Public Works Fund and General Capital Projects Fund represents amounts withheld from payments made on construction contracts pending completion of the projects. These amounts are held as Equity in Pooled Cash and Investments in the Highway/Public Works and General Capital Projects funds.

3. Inventories and Prepaid Items

Inventories of the discretely presented Washington County School Department are recorded at cost, determined on the first-in, first-out method. Inventories of governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased. Inventories are offset in the nonspendable fund balance account in governmental funds. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both the government-wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as an expenditure when consumed rather than when purchased. Prepaids are offset in the nonspendable fund balance account in governmental funds.

4. Restricted Assets Restricted assets consist of amounts held in a pension stabilization trust by the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) for the benefit of the discretely presented Washington County School Department’s Teacher Retirement Plan. The purpose of this trust is to accumulate funds to provide stabilization (smoothing) of retirement costs to the school system in times of fluctuating investment returns and market downturns. These funds are held and invested by TCRS pursuant to an irrevocable agreement and may only be used for the benefit of the Washington County School Department to fund retirement benefits upon approval of the TCRS Board of Directors. To date, the Washington County School Department has not withdrawn any funds from the trust to pay pension cost. Trust documents provide that the funds are not subject to the claims of general creditors of the School Department.

5. Capital Assets

Governmental funds do not capitalize the cost of capital outlays; these funds report capital outlays as expenditures upon acquisition. Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, and library books), are reported in the governmental column in the government‐wide

59

financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an estimated useful life in excess of one year and with an initial individual cost of $10,000 or more for all assets other than infrastructure, which is a cost of $50,000 or more. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at acquisition value at the date of donation. The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets’ lives are not capitalized. Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure of the primary government and the discretely presented School Department are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

Assets Years

Buildings 40Building Improvements 20System Infrastructure 40Vehicles 5-10Office Equipment 5-7Computer Equipment 5

6. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources

In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The government has items that qualify for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the items are reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position. These items are for pension changes in experience, pension changes in assumptions, pension contributions after the measurement date, pension other deferrals, OPEB changes in experience, OPEB change in assumptions, OPEB contributions after the measurement date, OPEB other deferrals, and the deferred charge on refunding. A deferred charge on refunding results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt.

60

In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position 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 position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. The government has items that qualify for reporting in this category. Accordingly, the items are reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position and the governmental funds balance sheet. These items are from the following sources: current and delinquent property taxes, pension changes in experience, pension changes in investment earnings, pension other deferrals, OPEB changes in experiences, OPEB changes in assumptions, and various receivables for revenues, which do not meet the availability criteria in governmental funds.

7. Compensated Absences

It is the county’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits. There is no liability for unpaid accumulated sick leave since Washington County does not have a policy to pay any amounts when employees separate from service with the government. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide financial statements for the county. A liability for vacation pay is reported in governmental funds only if amounts have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. It is the policy of the Washington County School Department to permit noncertified employees to accumulate a limited amount of earned but unused vacation benefits that lapse at the end of each calendar year. All vacation pay is accrued when incurred in the government-wide financial statements for the School Department. A liability for vacation pay is reported in governmental funds for amounts that have matured at the end of the fiscal year. Also, the general policy of the School Department permits all personnel to accumulate an unlimited amount of unused sick leave days. There is no liability for unpaid accumulated sick leave since the School Department does not have a policy to pay any amounts when employees separate from service.

8. Long-term Debt and Long-term Obligations

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities Statement of Net Position. Debt premiums and discounts are deferred and are amortized over the life of the new debt. Debt issuance costs are expensed in the period incurred. In refunding transactions, the difference between the reacquisition price and the net carrying amount of the old debt is reported as a deferred

61

outflow of resources or a deferred inflow of resources and recognized as a component of interest expense in a systematic and rational manner over the remaining life of the refunded debt or the life of the new debt issued, whichever is shorter. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds recognize debt premiums and discounts, as well as debt 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. Only the matured portion (the portion that has come due for payment) of long-term indebtedness, including bonds payable, is recognized as a liability and expenditure in the governmental fund financial statements. Liabilities and expenditures for other long-term obligations, including compensated absences, pensions, other postemployment benefits, and special termination benefits, are recognized to the extent that the liabilities have matured (come due for payment) each period.

9. Net Position and Fund Balance In the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary fund in the fund financial statements, equity is classified as net position and displayed in three components:

a. Net investment in capital assets – Consists of capital assets,

including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes, or other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.

b. Restricted net position – Consists of net position with constraints placed on the use either by (1) external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments or (2) law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

c. Unrestricted net position – All other net position that does not

meet the definition of restricted or net investment in capital assets.

The government-wide Statement of Net Position reports $13,136,355 of restricted net position for the Primary Government, of which $945,643 is restricted by enabling legislation.

62

In prior years the Highway/Public Works Fund received and utilized a portion of capital outlay note proceeds from the General Obligation Capital Outlay Note, Series 2013. The resolution for the issuance of this note approved by the county commission required the Highway/Public Works Fund to make annual contributions to the General Debt Service Fund for its respective share of the debt principal and interest requirements. At June 30, 2019, the Highway/Public Works Fund had paid all future requirements through the final maturity date of the note, July 15, 2025. As a result, $1,248,625 of the total $6,613,212 balance of the Restricted Debt Service account for the primary government represents amounts restricted for future payments of the Highway/Public Works Fund’s portion of the associated debt requirements. As of June 30, 2019, Washington County had $125,856,809 in outstanding debt for capital purposes for the discretely presented Washington County School Department. In accordance with state statutes, certain county school debt proceeds must be shared with other public school systems in the county (Johnson City School System) based on an average daily attendance proration. The debt is a liability of Washington County, but the capital assets acquired are reported in the financial statements of the School Department and the Johnson City School System. In addition, Washington County had a nonexchange financial guarantee liability totaling $1,408,878 on June 30, 2019, for capital purposes of a joint venture, the Tri-Cities Regional Airport. This nonexchange financial guarantee is also a liability of Washington County, but the capital assets acquired are reported by the Tri-Cities Regional Airport. Therefore, Washington County has incurred a liability significantly decreasing its unrestricted net position with no corresponding increase in the county’s capital assets. It is the county’s policy that restricted amounts would be reduced first followed by unrestricted amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available. Also, it is the county’s policy that committed amounts would be reduced first, followed by assigned amounts, and then unassigned amounts when expenditures are incurred for purposes for which amounts in any of these unrestricted fund balance classifications could be used. In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund balance in classifications that comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which the government is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which amounts in these funds can be spent. These classifications may consist of the following:

63

Nonspendable Fund Balance – includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either (a) not in spendable form or (b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.

Restricted Fund Balance – includes amounts that have constraints placed on the use of the resources that are either (a) externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors or laws and regulations of other governments or (b) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.

Committed Fund Balance – includes amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by formal resolutions of the county commission, the county’s highest level of decision-making authority and the Board of Education, the School Department’s highest level of decision-making authority, and shall remain binding unless removed in the same manner.

Assigned Fund Balance – includes amounts that are constrained by the county’s intent to be used for specific purposes but are neither restricted nor committed (excluding stabilization arrangements). The county commission makes assignments for the general government. The Board of Education makes assignments for the School Department. Assigned fund balance in the General Fund consists of amounts assigned for encumbrances ($441,650), amounts assigned by the county commission for various purposes within the general government ($579,352), amounts assigned for future contributions ($600,000), and amounts appropriated for use in the 2019-20 year budget ($511,260). Assigned fund balance in the discretely presented School Department’s General Purpose School Fund consists of amounts appropriated for use in the 2019-20 year budget ($1,814,709).

Unassigned Fund Balance – the residual classification of the General and General Purpose School funds. This classification represents fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds and has not been restricted, committed, or assigned to specific purposes within the General and General Purpose School funds.

10. Minimum Fund Balance Policy

To provide management with appropriate guidelines and direction to assist in making sound decisions related to managing the fund balance of certain governmental funds, the following minimum fund balance policy exists:

64

General Fund – Beginning unassigned fund balance will be four months budgeted average expenditures for the year and will not at any point be less than 15 percent of projected annual expenditures. General Debt Service Fund – Beginning cash or investments will be 40 percent of the current year debt service obligations or an amount equal to the debt service fund expenditure requirements during the first six months of the fiscal year, whichever is greater.

E. Pension Plans

Primary Government For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of Washington County’s participation in the Public Employee Retirement Plan of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS), and additions to/deductions from Washington County’s fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the TCRS for the Public Employee Retirement Plan. For this purpose, benefits (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms of the Public Employee Retirement Plan of TCRS. Investments are reported at fair value. Discretely Presented Washington County School Department

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the Teacher Retirement Plan and the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan in the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System, and additions to/deductions from fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the TCRS. For this purpose, benefits (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms of the Teacher Retirement Plan and the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan. Investments are reported at fair value.

F. Other Postemployment Benefit (OPEB) Plans

Primary Government For purposes of measuring the net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to OPEB, and OPEB expense, have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by Washington County. For this purpose, Washington County recognizes benefit payments when due and payable in accordance with benefit terms. Washington County’s OPEB plan is not administered through a trust.

66

III. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE, AND ACCOUNTABILITY A. Budgetary Information

Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for all governmental funds except the Constitutional Officers - Fees Fund (special revenue fund), which is not budgeted. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end. The county is required by state statute to adopt annual budgets. Annual budgets are prepared on the basis in which current available funds must be sufficient to meet current expenditures. Expenditures and encumbrances may not legally exceed appropriations authorized by the county commission and any authorized revisions. Unencumbered appropriations lapse at the end of each fiscal year.

The budgetary level of control is at the major category level established by the County Uniform Chart of Accounts, as prescribed by the Comptroller of the Treasury of the State of Tennessee. Major categories are at the department level (examples of General Fund major categories: County Commission, Board of Equalization, County Mayor, County Attorney, etc.). Management may make revisions within major categories, but only the county commission may transfer appropriations between major categories. During the year, several supplementary appropriations were necessary.

The county's budgetary basis of accounting is consistent with GAAP, except instances in which encumbrances are treated as budgeted expenditures. The difference between the budgetary basis and GAAP basis is presented on the face of each budgetary schedule.

At June 30, 2019, Washington County had encumbrances in the following budgeted funds:

Funds Amount

Primary Government Major Fund: General $ 441,650 Highway/Public Works 1,095,080 General Capital Projects 4,579,578

B. Cash Shortage (Prior Years)

The audit of Washington County for the 1999-2000 year reported a cash shortage of $17,863 in the Sheriff’s Department. On March 24, 2000, a Sheriff’s Department bookkeeper was found guilty of theft over $10,000 and

67

was sentenced. The bookkeeper was also ordered to pay restitution totaling $17,863 to the Sheriff’s Department. As of June 30, 2018, the former bookkeeper had paid restitution of $3,215 leaving an unpaid difference of $14,648. On March 25, 2019 the county commission voted to write-off the remaining cash shortage.

C. Cash Overdraft

The School Federal Projects Fund of the discretely presented School Department had a cash overdraft of $29,958 at June 30, 2019. This cash overdraft resulted from the issuance of checks exceeding cash on deposit with the county trustee. The cash overdraft was liquidated subsequent to June 30, 2019.

D. Expenditures Exceeded Appropriations

Expenditures exceeded appropriations approved by the county commission in the County Coroner/Medical Examiner and Contributions to Other Agencies major appropriation categories (the legal level of control) in the General Fund by $69,518 and $23,892, respectively. Expenditures that exceed appropriations are a violation of state statutes. These expenditures in excess of appropriations were funded by available fund balance in the General Fund.

IV. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS

A. Deposits and Investments Washington County and the Washington County School Department participate in an internal cash and investment pool through the Office of Trustee. The county trustee is the treasurer of the county and in this capacity is responsible for receiving, disbursing, and investing most county funds. Each fund’s portion of this pool is displayed on the balance sheets or statements of net position as Equity in Pooled Cash and Investments. Cash and investments reflected on the balance sheets or statements of net position represent nonpooled amounts held separately by individual funds. Deposits Legal Provisions. All deposits with financial institutions must be secured by one of two methods. One method involves financial institutions that participate in the bank collateral pool administered by the state treasurer. Participating banks determine the aggregate balance of their public fund accounts for the State of Tennessee and its political subdivisions. The amount of collateral required to secure these public deposits must equal at least 105 percent of the average daily balance of public deposits held. Collateral securities required to be pledged by the participating banks to protect their public fund accounts are pledged to the state treasurer on behalf of the bank collateral pool. The securities pledged to protect these accounts

68

are pledged in the aggregate rather than against each account. The members of the pool may be required by agreement to pay an assessment to cover any deficiency. Under this additional assessment agreement, public fund accounts covered by the pool are considered to be insured for purposes of credit risk disclosure. For deposits with financial institutions that do not participate in the bank collateral pool, state statutes require that all deposits be collateralized with collateral whose market value is equal to 105 percent of the uninsured amount of the deposits. The collateral must be placed by the depository bank in an escrow account in a second bank for the benefit of the county.

Investments Legal Provisions. Counties are authorized to make direct investments in bonds, notes, or treasury bills of the U.S. government and obligations guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies; deposits at state and federal chartered banks and savings and loan associations; bonds of any state or political subdivision rated A or higher by any nationally recognized rating service; nonconvertible debt securities of certain federal government sponsored enterprises; and the county’s own legally issued bonds or notes. These investments may not have a maturity greater than two years. The county may make investments with longer maturities if various restrictions set out in state law are followed. Counties are also authorized to make investments in the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool and in repurchase agreements. The primary oversight responsibility for the investments and operations of the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool rests with the Funding Board of the State of Tennessee (Funding Board). The Funding Board has established an investment policy that is administered by the state treasurer. Investments in the State Treasurer’s Investment Pool are reported both by the pool and the county at amortized cost using a stable net asset value. Repurchase agreements must be approved by the state Comptroller’s Office and executed in accordance with procedures established by the State Funding Board. Securities purchased under a repurchase agreement must be obligations of the U.S. government or obligations guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies. When repurchase agreements are executed, the purchase of the securities must be priced at least two percent below the fair value of the securities on the day of purchase. Investment Balances. As of June 30, 2019, Washington County had the following investment carried at fair value within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. All investments are in the county trustee’s investment pool. Separate disclosures concerning pooled investments cannot be made for Washington County and the Washington County School Department since both pool their deposits and investments through the county trustee.

Fair Value Measurements Using

Fair value investments classified at Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using prices quoted in active markets for those securities. Fair value investments classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using the active market rates for the underlying securities. Fair value investments classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy are valued using non-observable inputs. Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. State statutes limit the maturities of certain investments as previously disclosed. Washington County’s investment policy limits investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates. The policy generally limits idle funds to investments with maturities of less than two years. Investments with maturities of up to five years may be made with approval of the investment committee and county legislative body. Investments with maturities of greater than five years require the additional approval of the Comptroller of the Treasury. TCRS Stabilization Trust

Legal Provisions. The Washington County School Department is a member of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) Stabilization Reserve Trust. The School Department has placed funds into the irrevocable trust as authorized by statute under Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA), Title 8, Chapters 34-37. The TCRS Board of Trustees is responsible for the proper operation and administration of the trust. Funds of trust members are held

70

and invested in the name of the trust for the benefit of each member. Each member’s funds are restricted for the payment of retirement benefits of that member’s employees. Trust funds are not subject to the claims of general creditors of the School Department. The trust is authorized to make investments as directed by the TCRS Board of Trustees. The Washington County School Department may not impose any restrictions on investments placed by the trust on their behalf. Investment Balances. Assets of the TCRS, including the Stabilization Reserve Trust, are invested in the Tennessee Retiree Group Trust (TRGT). The TRGT is not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) as an investment company. The State of Tennessee has not obtained a credit quality rating for the TRGT from a nationally recognized credit ratings agency. The fair value of investment positions in the TRGT is determined daily based on the fair value of the pool’s underlying portfolio. Furthermore, TCRS had not obtained or provided any legally binding guarantees to support the value of participant shares during the fiscal year. There are no restrictions on the sale or redemption of shares. Investments are reported at fair value or amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Securities traded on a national exchange are valued at the last reported sales price. Investment income consists of realized and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) in the fair value. Securities and securities transactions are recorded in the financial statements on a trade-date basis. The fair value of assets of the TRGT held at June 30, 2019, represents the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. Assets held are categorized for fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy established by GAAP. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset and give the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). • Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that can be accessed at the measurement date. • Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; assets or liabilities that have a bid-ask spread price in an inactive dealer market, brokered market and principal-to-principal market; and Level 1 assets or liabilities that are adjusted. • Level 3 - Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which significant inputs are unobservable.

71

Investments using the Net Asset Value (“NAV”) per share have no readily determinable fair value and have been determined using amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Where inputs used in the measurement of fair value fall into different levels of the hierarchy, fair value of the instrument in its entirety is categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. This assessment requires professional judgement and as such management of the TRGT developed a fair value committee that worked in conjunction with the plan’s custodian and investment professionals to make these valuations. All assets held were valued individually and aggregated into classes to be represented in the table below. Short-term securities generally include investments in money market-type securities reported at cost plus accrued interest. Equity and equity derivative securities classified in Level 1 are valued using last reported sales prices quoted in active markets that can be accessed at the measurement date. Equity and equity derivative securities classified in Level 2 are securities whose values are derived daily from associated traded securities. Equity securities classified in Level 3 are valued with last trade data having limited trading volume. U.S. Treasury Bills, Bonds, Notes and Futures classified in Level 1 are valued using last reported sales prices quoted in active markets that can be accessed at the measurement date. Debt and debt derivative securities classified in Level 2 are valued using a bid-ask spread price from multiple independent brokers, dealers, or market principals, which are known to be actively involved in the market. Level 3 debt securities are valued using proprietary information, a single pricing source, or other unobservable inputs related to similar assets or liabilities. Real estate investments classified in Level 3 are valued using the last valuations provided by external investment advisors or independent external appraisers. Generally, all direct real estate investments are appraised by a qualified independent appraiser(s) with the professional designation of Member of the Appraisal Institute (“MAI”), or its equivalent, every three (3) years beginning from the acquisition date of the property. The appraisals are performed using generally accepted valuation approaches applicable to the property type. Investments in private mutual funds, traditional private equity funds, strategic lending funds and real estate funds that report using GAAP, the fair value, as well as the unfunded commitments, were determined using the prior quarter’s NAV, as reported by the fund managers, plus the current cash flows. These assets were then categorized by investment strategy. In instances where the fund investment reported using non-GAAP standards,

72

the investment was valued using the same method, but was classified in Level 3. At June 30, 2019, the Washington County School Department had the following investments held by the trust on its behalf.

Fair Value Measurements Using

Risks and Uncertainties. The trust’s investments include various types of investment funds, which in turn invest in any combination of stock, bonds and other investments exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and market risk. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment

73

securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported for trust investments. Interest Rate Risk. Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. The Washington County School Department does not have the ability to limit trust investment maturities as a means of managing its exposure to fair value losses arising from increasing interest rates. Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The Washington County School Department does not have the ability to limit the credit ratings of individual investments made by the trust. Concentration of Credit Risk. Concentration of credit risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of the county’s investment in a single issuer. Washington County School Department places no limit on the amount the county may invest in one issuer. Custodial Credit Risk. Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of a failure of the counterparty to a transaction, the county will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the possession of an outside party. Pursuant to the trust agreement, investments are held in the name of the trust for the benefit of the Washington County School Department to pay retirement benefits of the School Department employees.

F. Long-term Debt

Primary Government General Obligation Bonds, Notes, Other Loans, and Nonexchange Financial Guarantee General Obligation Bonds - Washington County issues general obligation bonds to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities for the primary government and the discretely presented School Department. In addition, general obligation bonds have been issued to refund other general obligation bonds. General obligation bonds are direct obligations and pledge the full faith, credit, and taxing authority of the government. General obligation bonds outstanding were issued for original terms of up to 21 years. Repayment terms are generally structured with increasing amounts of principal maturing as interest requirements decrease over the term of the debt. All bonds included in long-term debt as of June 30, 2019, will be retired from the General Debt Service Fund and Rural Debt Service Fund. Direct Borrowing and Direct Placements - Washington County issues other loans to provide funds for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities for the primary government and the discretely presented School Department. Capital outlay notes are also issued to fund capital facilities and other capital outlay purchases, such as equipment. Capital outlay notes, and other loans are direct obligations and pledge the full faith, credit, and taxing authority of the government. Capital outlay notes outstanding were issued for an original term of 12 years. There were no other loans outstanding at June 30, 2019. Repayment terms are generally structured with increasing amounts of principal maturing as interest requirements decrease over the term of the debt. All notes included in long-term debt as of June 30, 2019, will be retired from the General Debt Service Fund. Nonexchange Financial Guarantee – Washington County has recorded a liability for a proportionate share of outstanding Aerospace Park Bonds issued by the Tri-Cities Airport Authority. The authority is a joint venture discussed in Note V.E. It is considered more likely than not that net revenues

79

will not be generated by the aerospace park project in the foreseeable future. Consequently, it is expected that members of the joint venture will be required to pay this debt of the Airport Authority based on guaranty agreements entered into by the members. The total amount of bonds issued was $8,500,000 and Washington County’s proportionate share of the guarantee is 22.5 percent, or $1,912,500 of the original principal, plus interest. The bonds mature serially each May 1, beginning in 2019 and ending in 2038. Interest rates vary from 3 percent to 4.5 percent with payments due semi-annually. General obligation bonds, capital outlay notes, and nonexchange financial guarantee outstanding as of June 30, 2019, for governmental activities are as follows:

Washington County has decided to accelerate payments on its obligation under the nonexchange financial guarantee for the Tri-Cities Airport Authority. Accordingly, the Authority has established an irrevocable escrow account with the bond paying agent. Payments by the county are deposited to the account and used to pay Washington County’s portion of the bond principal and interest as it becomes due. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, Washington County deposited funds totaling $518,072 into the escrow account and paid $41,421 directly to the Airport Authority in relation to the bond and interest requirements. The balance in the escrow account, including investment earnings, has been reduced from the outstanding bond balance in determining the county’s liability for nonexchange financial guarantees at June 30, 2019. The nonexchange financial guarantee will be retired from the General Fund. The amount of the liability reported at June 30, 2019 is management’s best estimate of the discounted present value of the future outflows expected to be incurred as a result of the guarantee. Balances in the escrow account accumulate investment earnings at rates which are not expected to vary materially from the interest rates on the bonds. The following tables reflect the annual requirements on the outstanding bonds and reconciles those amounts with the liability reflected for nonexchange financial guarantees.

V. OTHER INFORMATION

A. Risk Management

Primary Government The county is exposed to various risks related to general liability, property, and casualty losses. The county decided it was more economically feasible to join a public entity risk pool instead of purchasing commercial insurance for general liability, property, and casualty coverage. The county joined the Local Government Property and Casualty Fund (LGPCF), which is a public entity risk pool established by the Tennessee County Services Association, an association of member counties. The county pays an annual premium to the LGPCF for its general liability, property, and casualty insurance coverage.

85

The creation of the LGPCF provides for it to be self-sustaining through member premiums. The LGPCF reinsures through commercial insurance companies for claims exceeding $100,000 for each insured event. Settled claims have not exceeded this commercial coverage in any of the past three fiscal years. Washington County decided it was more economically feasible to join a public entity risk pool as opposed to purchasing commercial insurance for workers’ compensation coverage. The county joined the Local Government Workers’ Compensation Fund (LGWCF). The county pays an annual premium to the LGWCF for its workers’ compensation coverage. The creation of the LGWCF provides for it to be self-sustaining through member premiums. Washington County has chosen to establish the Employee Insurance – Health Fund to account for its self-insured employee health program. The Employee Insurance - Health Fund is accounted for as an Internal Service Fund where assets are set aside for claim settlements. The county has obtained excess risk insurance coverage with an aggregate individual stop loss limit of $150,000 per person for covered claims and an annual aggregate maximum liability amount of $1,000,000. All full-time employees of the primary government are eligible to participate. A premium charge is allocated to each fund that accounts for full-time employees. Liabilities of the self-insurance fund are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred, and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. This fund establishes claims liabilities based on estimates of the ultimate cost of claims that have been reported but not settled, and of claims that have been incurred but not reported. Claims liabilities include specific, incremental claim adjustment expenditures/expenses, if any. In addition, estimated recoveries, if any, on settled claims have been deducted from the liability of unpaid claims. The process used to compute claims liabilities does not necessarily result in an exact amount. Changes in the balance of claims liabilities during the past two fiscal years are as follows: Employee Insurance - Health Fund

86

Discretely Presented Washington County School Department The School Department participates in the Tennessee Risk Management Trust (TN-RMT), which is a public entity risk pool created under the auspices of the Tennessee Governmental Tort Liability Act to provide governmental insurance coverage. The School Department pays annual premiums to the TN-RMT for its general liability, property, casualty, and workers’ compensation insurance coverage. The creation of TN-RMT provides for it to be self-sustaining through member premiums. The School Department participates in the Local Education Group Insurance Fund (LEGIF), a public entity risk pool established to provide a program of health insurance coverage for employees of local education agencies. In accordance with Section 8-27-301, TCA, all local education agencies are eligible to participate. The LEGIF is included in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the State of Tennessee, but the state does not retain any risk for losses by this fund. Section 8-27-303, TCA, provides for the LEGIF to be self-sustaining through member premiums.

B. Accounting Changes

Provisions of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 83, Certain Asset Retirement Obligations; Statement No. 88, Certain Disclosures Related to Debt, Including Direct Borrowing and Direct Placements became effective for the year ended June 30, 2019. In addition, Washington County early implemented the provisions of GASB Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Costs Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period. GASB Statement No. 83, Certain Asset Retirement Obligations establishes accounting and reporting requirements for certain asset retirement obligations (AROs) associated with tangible capital assets. The scope of this statement establishes standards for recognizing and measuring liabilities, deferred outflows of resources, and expense/expenditures. In addition, this standard establishes note disclosure requirements for AROs. GASB Statement No. 88, Certain Disclosures Related to Debt, including Direct Borrowing and Direct Placements addresses note disclosure requirements related to debt, including direct borrowings and direct placements. It also clarifies which liabilities governments should report when disclosing information related to debt. These required disclosures include direct borrowings and direct placements, unused lines of credit, assets pledged as collateral for debt, terms specified in debt agreements related to significant events of default with finance-related consequences, significant termination events with finance-related consequences, and significant acceleration clauses.

87

GASB Statement No. 89, Accounting for Interest Costs Incurred Before the End of a Construction Period amends paragraphs 5 through 22 of GASB Statement No. 62. This standard establishes that interest cost incurred before the end of a construction period should be recognized as an expense/expenditure. The changes adopted to conform with this standard are to be applied prospectively.

C. Contingent Liabilities

On February 20, 2014, Sullivan County issued $2,975,000 of Airport Revenue and Tax Refunding Bonds for the Tri-Cities Airport (a joint venture described in Note V.E.). Washington County is contingently liable for 20 percent of the principal and interest on these bonds in the event revenues of the Airport Authority are not sufficient to cover the payments. The other governments participating in the joint venture are contingently liable for the remaining 80 percent of the principal and interest requirements. Final maturity for the bonds is May 1, 2023. The outstanding balance of the bonds was $1,415,000 at June 30, 2019. On March 29, 2018, Tri-Cities Regional Airport issued Aerospace Park bonds in the amount of $8,500,000.

F. Jointly Governed Organization The East Tennessee Regional Agribusiness Marketing Authority was established through Title 64 of Tennessee Code Annotated, (TCA), and includes the counties of Claiborne, Cocke, Grainger, Greene, Hamblen, Hancock, Hawkins, Jefferson, Johnson, Sullivan, Unicoi, and Washington. The purpose of the authority is to establish and operate a market for agricultural products of the region through a food distribution center, and to further the economy and growth of the region served by the authority by developing, marketing, and promoting facilities for warehousing, distribution, light manufacturing, and agribusiness purposes. The authority is governed by a Board of Directors consisting of the county mayors of each county or the county mayor’s designee and one nonvoting member representing the Tennessee Department of Agriculture and the University of Tennessee’s Agriculture Extension Service. An executive committee, consisting of the chairman, vice-chairman, secretary, and treasurer of the Board of Directors, along with the center manager as an ex-officio member, is in charge of the daily operation of the center. The East Tennessee Railway Authority was established through Title 7 of Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) and includes Washington County and the City of Johnson City. The purpose of the authority is to facilitate upgrades to railway lines in the county and city. The authority is governed by a Board of Directors pursuant to Section 7-56-203, TCA and includes the mayor of Washington County and Johnson City as well as an additional member appointed from each governing body of the members. Washington County is accounting for the operations of the authority through the Other Agency Fund. Washington County is a participant in the joint governance of the Alliance for Business and Training (AB&T), which administers funds received under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act for the Northeast Tennessee Local Workforce Development Area. An interlocal consortium agreement between Carter, Greene, Hancock, Hawkins, Johnson, Sullivan, Unicoi, and

91

Washington counties established the Northeast Tennessee Workforce Development Board and the governing structure of AB&T. The county mayors represent each county in the consortium. The Sullivan County Mayor serves as the chief local elected county official of the consortium by the majority approval of the local elected county officials in the consortium agreement and approves appointments of board members of the workforce development board following a nomination process specified in the agreement. The board has no financial activity but provides oversight for workforce development programs of the Development Area. Those programs are funded by grants passed through the state Department of Labor to AB&T. Mayors of the participating counties, along with four members jointly appointed by the mayors serve as the governing board of AB&T. The consortium agreement calls for any liability for disallowed costs of the grant programs to be shared by member counties of the consortium based on each county’s percent of the population of the local workforce development area. However, that contingent liability is to be mitigated by $3 million of insurance coverage provided by AB&T to indemnify the counties pursuant to the consortium agreement.

92

Department, an agency in the legislative branch of state government, administers the plans of the TCRS. The TCRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.treasury.tn.gov/Retirement/Boards-and-Governance/Reporting-and-Investment-Policies. Benefits Provided. TCA, Title 8, Chapters 34-37 establish the benefit terms and can be amended only by the Tennessee General Assembly. The chief legislative body may adopt the benefit terms permitted by statute. Members are eligible to retire with an unreduced benefit at age 60 with five years of service credit or after 30 years of service credit regardless of age. Benefits are determined by a formula using the member’s highest five consecutive year average compensation and the member’s years of service credit.

Contributions. Contributions for employees are established in the statutes governing the TCRS and may only be changed by the Tennessee General Assembly. Employees are noncontributory. Washington County makes employer contributions at the rate set by the Board of Trustees as determined by an actuarial valuation. For the year ended June 30, 2019, the employer contribution for Washington County was $2,676,264 based on a rate of 9.76 percent of covered payroll. By law, employer contributions are required to be paid. The TCRS may intercept Washington County’s state shared taxes if required employer contributions are not remitted. The employer’s actuarially determined contributions (ADC) and member contributions are expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by members during the year, the cost of administration, as well as an amortized portion of any unfunded liability. Net Pension Liability (Asset) Washington County’s net pension liability (asset) was measured as of June 30, 2018, and the total pension liability (asset) used to calculate net pension liability (asset) was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability as of the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:

Inflation 2.5%Salary Increases Graded Salary Ranges from 8.72%

to 3.44% Based on Age, Including Inflation, Averaging 4%

Investment Rate of Return 7.25%, Net of Pension Plan Investment Expenses, Including Inflation

Cost of Living Adjustment 2.25%

Mortality rates were based on actual experience including an adjustment for some anticipated improvement. The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study performed for the period July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2016. The demographic assumptions were adjusted to more closely reflect actual and expected future experience.

94

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees in conjunction with the June 30, 2016, actuarial experience study. A blend of future capital market projections and historic market returns was used in a building-block method in which a best-estimate of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investments expense and inflation) is developed for each major asset class. These best-estimates are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighing the expected future real rates of return by the target allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation of 2.5 percent. The best-estimates of geometric real rates of return and the TCRS investment policy target asset allocation for each major class are summarized in the following table:

PercentageLong-termExpected PercentageReal Rate Target

Total 100 %

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees as 7.25 percent based on a blending of the factors described above. Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumes that employee contributions will be made at the current rate and that contributions from Washington County will be made at the actuarially determined contribution rate pursuant to an actuarial valuation in accordance with the funding policy of the TCRS Board of Trustees and as required to be paid by state statute. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make projected

95

future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, 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. Changes in the Net Pension Liability (Asset)

Certified Employees Teacher Retirement Plan General Information About the Pension Plan Plan Description. Teachers of the Washington County School Department with membership in the TCRS before July 1, 2014, are provided with pensions through the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan, a cost-sharing multiple-employer pension plan administered by the TCRS. The Teacher Legacy Pension Plan is closed to new membership. Teachers with membership in the TCRS after June 30, 2014, are provided with pensions through a legally separate plan referred to as the Teacher Retirement Plan, a cost-sharing multiple-employer pension plan administered by the TCRS. The TCRS was created by state statute under Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA), Title 8, Chapters 34-37. The TCRS Board of Trustees is responsible for the proper operation and administration of all employer pension plans in the TCRS. The Tennessee Treasury Department, an agency in the legislative branch of state government, administers the plans of the TCRS. The TCRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.treasury.tn.gov/Retirement/Boards-and-Governance/Reporting-and-Investment-Policies. Benefits Provided. TCA, Title 8, Chapters 34-37 establish the benefit terms and can be amended only by the Tennessee General Assembly. Members are eligible to retire with an unreduced benefit at age 65 with five years of service credit or pursuant to the rule of 90 in which the member’s age and service credit total 90. Benefits are determined by a formula using the member’s highest five consecutive year average compensation and the member’s years of service credit. A reduced early retirement benefit is available to vested members at age 60 or

99



pursuant to the rule of 80. Members are vested with five years of service credit. Service related disability benefits are provided regardless of length of service. Five years of service is required for non-service related disability eligibility. The service related and non-service related disability benefits are determined in the same manner as a service retirement benefit but are reduced ten percent and include projected service credits. A variety of death benefits is available under various eligibility criteria. Member and beneficiary annuitants are entitled to an automatic cost of living adjustment (COLA) after retirement. A COLA is granted each July for annuitants retired prior to the second of July of the previous year. The COLA is based on the change in the consumer price index (CPI) during the prior calendar year, capped at three percent, and applied to the current benefit. No COLA is granted if the change in the CPI is less than one-half percent. A one percent COLA is granted if the CPI change is between one-half percent and one percent. Members who leave employment may withdraw their employee contributions, plus any accumulated interest. Under the Teacher Retirement Plan, benefit terms and conditions, including COLA, can be adjusted on a prospective basis. Moreover, there are defined cost controls and unfunded liability controls that provide for the adjustment of benefit terms and conditions on an automatic basis. Contributions. Contributions for teachers are established in the statutes governing the TCRS and may only be changed by the Tennessee General Assembly or by automatic cost controls set out in law. Teachers are required to contribute five percent of their salary to the plan. The Local Education Agencies (LEAs) make employer contributions at the rate set by the Board of Trustees as determined by an actuarial valuation. Per the statutory provisions governing TCRS, the employer contribution rate cannot be less than four percent, except in years when the maximum funded level, approved by the TCRS Board of Trustees, is reached. By law, employer contributions for the Teacher Retirement Plan are required to be paid. The TCRS may intercept the state shared taxes of the sponsoring governmental entity of the LEA if the required employer contributions are not remitted. Employer contributions for the year ended June 30, 2019, to the Teacher Retirement Plan were $87,581, which is 1.94 percent of covered payroll. In addition, employer contributions of $88,887, were made to the Pension Stabilization Reserve Trust Fund to fund future pension costs.

Total 100 %

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees as 7.25 percent based on a blending of the factors described above. Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumes that employee contributions will be made at the current rate and that contributions from all the LEAs will be made at the actuarially determined contribution rate pursuant to an actuarial valuation in accordance with the funding policy of the TCRS Board of Trustees and as required to be paid by state statute. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, 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.

Beginning July 1, 2014, the Teacher Retirement Plan became effective for teachers employed by LEAs after June 30, 2014. The Teacher Retirement Plan is a separate cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plan. The TCRS was created by state statute under Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA), Title 8, Chapters 34-37. The TCRS Board of Trustees is responsible for the proper operation and administration of all employer pension plans in the TCRS. The Tennessee Treasury Department, an agency in the legislative branch of state government, administers the plans of the TCRS. The TCRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.treasury.tn.gov/Retirement/Boards-and-Governance/Reporting-and-Investment-Policies. Benefits Provided. TCA, Title 8, Chapters 34-37 establish the benefit terms and can be amended only by the Tennessee General Assembly. Members of the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan are eligible to retire with an unreduced benefit at age 60 with five years of service credit or

104



after 30 years of service credit regardless of age. Benefits are determined by a formula using the member’s highest five consecutive year average compensation and the member’s years of service credit. A reduced early retirement benefit is available to vested members at age 55. Members are vested with five years of service credit. Service related disability benefits are provided regardless of length of service. Five years of service is required for non-service related disability eligibility. The service related and non-service related disability benefits are determined in the same manner as a service retirement benefit but are reduced ten percent and include projected service credits. A variety of death benefits is available under various eligibility criteria. Member and beneficiary annuitants are entitled to an automatic cost of living adjustment (COLA) after retirement. A COLA is granted each July for annuitants retired prior to the second of July of the previous year. The COLA is based on the change in the consumer price index (CPI) during the prior calendar year, capped at three percent, and applied to the current benefit. No COLA is granted if the change in the CPI is less than one-half percent. A one percent COLA is granted if the CPI change is between one-half and one percent. A member who leaves employment may withdraw their employee contributions, plus any accumulated interest. Under the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan, benefit terms and conditions, including COLAs can be adjusted on a prospective basis. Moreover, there are defined cost controls and unfunded liability controls that provide for the adjustment of benefit terms and conditions on an automatic basis. Contributions. Contributions for teachers are established in the statutes governing the TCRS and may only be changed by the Tennessee General Assembly. Teachers are required to contribute five percent of their salaries. The Local Education Agencies (LEAs) make employer contributions at the rate set by the Board of Trustees as determined by an actuarial valuation. By law, employer contributions for the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan are required to be paid. The TCRS may intercept the state shared taxes of the sponsoring governmental entity of the LEA if the required employer contributions are not remitted. Employer contributions by the Washington County School Department for the year ended June 30, 2019, to the Teacher Legacy Pension Plan were $2,765,056, which is 10.46 percent of covered payroll. The employer rate, when combined with member contributions, is expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by members during the year, the cost of administration, as well as an amortized portion of any unfunded liability. Pension Liabilities (Assets), Pension Expense, and Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources Related to Pensions

105

Pension Liability (Assets). At June 30, 2019, the School Department reported a liability (asset) of ($2,764,989) for its proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset). The net pension liability (asset) was measured as of June 30, 2018, and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability (asset) was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The School Department’s proportion of the net pension liability (asset) was based on the School Department’s long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the contributions of all participating LEAs. At the measurement date of June 30, 2018, the School Department’s proportion was .78575 percent. The proportion measured at June 30, 2017, was .793385 percent. Pension Expense. For the year ended June 30, 2019, the School Department recognized negative pension expense of $779,706. Deferred Outflows of Resources and Deferred Inflows of Resources. For the year ended June 30, 2019, the School Department reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions from the following sources:

In the table above, positive amounts will increase pension expense, while negative amounts will decrease pension expense. Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability in the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:





Mortality rates are based actual experience including an adjustment for some anticipated improvement. The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study performed for the period July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2016. The demographic assumptions were adjusted to more closely reflect actual and expected future experience. The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees in conjunction with the June 30, 2016, actuarial experience study. A blend of future capital market projections and historic market returns was used in a building-block method in which a best-estimate of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investments expense and inflation) is developed for each major asset class. These best-estimates are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighing the expected future real rates of return by the target allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation of 2.5

107

percent. The best-estimates of geometric real rates of return and the TCRS investment policy target asset allocation for each major class are summarized in the following table:




Total 100 %

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees as 7.25 percent based on a blending of the factors described above. Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumes that employee contributions will be made at the current rate and that contributions from all the LEAs will be made at the actuarially determined contribution rate pursuant to an actuarial valuation in accordance with the funding policy of the TCRS Board of Trustees and as required to be paid by state statute. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, 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. Sensitivity of the Proportionate Share of Net Pension Liability (Asset) to Changes in the Discount Rate. The following presents the School Department’s proportionate share of the net pension liability (asset) calculated using the discount rate of 7.25 percent, as well as what the School Department’s proportionate share of the net pension liability

Payable to the Pension Plan At June 30, 2019, the Washington County School Department reported a payable of $664,732 for the outstanding amount of contributions due to the pension plan at year end.

2. Deferred Compensation

Washington County offers its employees an optional deferred compensation plan pursuant to IRC Section 457. It is administered by the Treasurer of the State of Tennessee. The discretely presented Washington County School Department offers its employees an optional deferred compensation plan established pursuant to IRC Section 403(b). All costs of administering and funding these programs are the responsibility of plan participants. The Section 457 and Section 403(b) plan assets remain the property of the contributing employees and are not presented in the accompanying financial statements. IRC Section 457 and 403(b) establish participation, contribution, and withdrawal provisions for the plans.

Teachers hired after July 1, 2014, by the discretely presented Washington County School Department are required to participate in a hybrid pension plan consisting of a defined benefit portion, which is detailed in the pensions footnote above and is managed by the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System, and a defined contribution portion which is placed into the state’s 401 (K) plan and is managed by the employee. The defined contribution portion of the plan requires that the School Department contribute five percent of each teacher’s salary into their deferred compensation plan. In addition, teachers are required to contribute a minimum of two percent of their salaries into this deferred compensation plan, unless they opt out of the employee portion. During the year the School

109

Department contributed $236,710 and teachers contributed $347,347 to this deferred compensation pension plan.

H. Other Postemployment Benefits (OPEB) Primary Government Plan Description. Washington County participates in a self-insured postemployment benefits plan administered by Blue Cross Blue Shield for its retirees and their covered dependents. Employees are eligible for OPEB benefits if they retire at any age with at least 30 years of service or if they are over the age 60 and have at least 10 years of service. For accounting purposes, the plan is a single-employer defined benefit OPEB plan. Benefits are established and amended by the county commission.

Discretely Presented Washington County School Department The discretely presented Washington County School Department provides OPEB benefits to its retirees through a state administered public entity risk pool. For reporting purposes the plan is considered a single employer defined benefit OPEB plan based on criteria in Statement No. 75 of the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The plan is funded on a pay-as-you-go basis and there are no assets accumulating in a trust that meets the criteria of paragraph 4 of GASB Statement No. 75. Plan description. Employees of the Washington County School Department who were hired prior to July 1, 2015, are provided with pre-65 retiree health insurance benefits through the closed Local Education Plan (LGP) administered by the Tennessee Department of Finance and Administration. All eligible pre-65 retired teachers, support staff, and disability participants of local education agencies, who choose coverage, participate in the LEP. This plan is closed to the employees of all participating employers that were hired on or after July 1, 2015. The School Department’s total OPEB liability was measured as of June 30, 2018, and was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.

113

Actuarial Assumptions and Other Inputs. The total OPEB liability in the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions and other inputs, applied to all periods included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified: Actuarial Cost Method Entry Age NormalInflation 2.25%Salary Increases Salary increases used in the July 1, 2018

and gradually decreasing 32-year period to an ultimate trend of rate of 3.53% with .32% added to approximate the effect of the excise tax

Retirees Share of Benefit Related Cost Discussed under Benefits Provided

The discount rate was 3.62 percent, based on the daily rate of Fidelity’s 20-year Municipal GO AA index closest to but not later than the measurement date. Mortality rates were based on the results of a statewide experience study undertaken on behalf of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS). These mortality rates were used in the July 1, 2018, actuarial valuation of the TCRS. Unless noted otherwise, the actuarial demographic assumptions used in the June 30, 2018, valuations were the same as those employed in the July 1, 2018, Pension Actuarial Valuation of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS). These assumptions were developed by TCRS based on the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2012 - June 30, 2016. The demographic assumptions were adjusted to more closely reflect actual and expected future experience. Mortality tables are used to measure the probabilities of participants dying before and after retirement. The mortality rates employed in this valuation are taken from the RP-2014 Healthy Participant Mortality Table for Annuitants for non-disabled post-retirement mortality, with mortality improvement projected to all future years using Scale MP-2016. Post-retirement tables are Blue Collar and adjusted with a 2 percent load for males and a -3 percent load for females. Mortality rates for impaired lives are the same as those used by TCRS and are taken from a gender distinct table published in the IRS Ruling 96-7 for disabled lives with a 10 percent load.

114

Changes in Assumptions. The discount rate changed from 3.56 percent as of the beginning of the measurement period to 3.62 percent as of the measurement date of June 30, 2018. The assumed initial costs and premium amounts were revised to reflect rates adopted for the 2019 plan year. The assumed initial trend rate applicable to the 2019 plan year was revised from 5.4 percent to 6.75 percent. Benefits provided. The Washington County School Department offers the LEP to provide health insurance coverage to eligible pre-65 retirees, support staff, and disabled participants of local education agencies. Retirees are required to discontinue coverage under the LEP upon obtaining Medicare eligibility. Insurance coverage is the only postemployment benefit provided to retirees. An insurance committee created in accordance with TCA 8-27-301 establishes and amends the benefit terms of the LEP. All members have the option of choosing between the premier preferred provider organization (PPO), standard PPO, limited PPO or the wellness health savings consumer-driven health plan (CDHP) for healthcare benefits. Retired plan members of the LEP receive the same plan benefits as active employees at a blended premium rate that considers the cost of all participants. This creates an implicit subsidy for retirees. Participating employers determine their own policy related to direct subsidies provided for retiree premiums. Washington County School Department provides a direct subsidy ranging from $161 to $336 per month for certified retirees depending on coverage selected. The School Department does not provide a direct subsidy for noncertified retirees. The state, as a governmental non-employer contributing entity, provides a direct subsidy for eligible retirees premiums based on years of service. Retirees with 30 or more years of service will receive 45 percent; 20 but less than 30 years, 35 percent; and less than 20 years, 20 percent of the scheduled premium. No subsidy is provided for enrollees of the health savings CDHP. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms At the measurement date of June 30, 2018, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:

SchoolDepartment

Retirees and Beneficiaries 50Inactive, nonretired members 0Active Members Eligible for Future Benefits 743Active Members Not Eligible for Future Benefits 87

115

A state insurance committee, created in accordance with TCA 8-27-301, establishes the required payments to the LEP by member employers and employees through the blended premiums established for active and retired employees. Claims liabilities of the plan are periodically computed using actuarial and statistical techniques to establish premium rates. Administrative costs are allocated to plan participants. Employers contribute towards employee costs based on their own developed policies. During the current reporting period, the School Department paid $388,828 to the LEP for OPEB benefits as they came due. Changes in the Collective Total OPEB Liability

I. Termination Benefits

The discretely presented Washington County School Department offers a retirement incentive payment. To be eligible, certified employees must retire with 25 years of experience and at least ten years of experience with Washington County School Department. Under the terms of the plan, employees will receive a one-time payment of $7,000 for an employee that retires with 25 years of experience. The amount decreases in decrements to $1,000 for any employee who retires with 33 years or more of experience. As of June 30, 2019, two employees had given notice of their intent to retire during the 2019-20 year. The estimated cost of the payments due to those individuals reported in the government-wide Statement of Net Position is $11,303. The entire amount is expected to be paid within one year. The governmental funds’ financial statements reflect retirement incentive expenditures of $24,760 in the General Purpose School Fund.

VI. OTHER NOTES – DISCRETELY PRESENTED WASHINGTON COUNTY EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS DISTRICT A. General Information and Significant Accounting Policies

Washington County Emergency Communications District is an emergency communications district under Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) Section 7‐86. The District has established the number 911 as a primary emergency telephone number to provide emergency service quickly and efficiently.

The financial statements of the district have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus on the accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. The district is a discretely presented Component Unit of Washington County, Tennessee. The district is a separate legal entity and is not fiscally dependent upon Washington County, Tennessee. However, the district’s Board of Directors is appointed by the county mayor and Washington County, Tennessee, has the ability to significantly influence the programs, projects, activities and level of services provided by the district. Operating revenue includes service charges, and funding from the Tennessee Emergency Communications Board. Nonoperating revenues are identified in accordance with the Accounting and Financial Reporting Manual for Tennessee Emergency Communications Districts. When an expense is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted net position is available, the district considers restricted funds to have been spent first. 1. Basis of Accounting

The district utilizes the full accrual basis of accounting. Revenue is recognized in the period in which it is earned and measurable; likewise, expenses are recognized when incurred, if measurable. Accordingly, all of the district’s assets, deferred outflows of resources, liabilities, and deferred inflows of resources, including capital assets and long‐term liabilities, are included in the accompanying statement of net position in accordance with the provisions of GASB Statement No. 63, Financial Reporting of Deferred Outflows of Resources, Deferred Inflows of Resources, and Net Position.

120

2. Cash and Deposits

Cash and Cash Equivalents on the Statements of Net Position and Cash Flows includes petty cash, cash on hand, and demand deposits. Cash and Cash Equivalents are all covered by FDIC insurance or by the State of Tennessee collateral pool. The district is exposed to concentration of credit risk by placing its deposits in financial institutions. The district has mitigated the risks because the bank balance in excess of the FDIC limit is collateralized by the State of Tennessee bank collateral pool. State statutes including TCA Sections 7‐86‐122 and 5‐8‐301 specify deposit and investment provisions.

4. Pensions

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the fiduciary net position of the District's participation in the Public Employee Retirement Plan of the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS), and additions to/deductions from the district's fiduciary net position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by the TCRS for the Public Employee Retirement Plan. For this purpose, benefits (including refunds of employee contributions) are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms of the Public Employee Retirement Plan of TCRS. Investments are reported at fair value.

5. Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

B. Budget

In accordance with Tennessee Code Annotated (TCA) 7‐86‐120, an annual budget is adopted by the district. The budget is approved by the Board of Directors and is also submitted to the primary government, Washington County, Tennessee. Expenses are presented at the legal level of control, which is defined in the Accounting and Financial Reporting Manual for Tennessee Emergency Communications Districts as the line‐item level.

C. Deposits and Investments

State statutes including TCA Sections 7‐86‐122 and 5‐8‐301 specify deposit and investment provisions.

122

DEPOSITS ‐ State statutes require all deposits with financial institutions must be collateralized in an amount equal to 105 percent of the market value of uninsured deposits. The collateral must be placed by the depository bank in an escrow account in a second bank for the benefit of the organization. The district does not have a policy for interest rate risk or other credit risk other than pledging securities for amounts in excess of FDIC coverage. INVESTMENTS ‐ Investments are allowed for the district in accordance with TCA Section 5‐8‐301, which includes the provision that counties are authorized to make direct investments in bonds, notes or treasury bonds, notes or treasury bills of the U.S. Government and obligations guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies; bonds of any state or political subdivision rated A or higher by any nationally recognized rating service; and Washington County's own legally issued bonds or notes. These investments may not have a maturity greater than two years. The district may make investments with longer maturities if various restrictions set out in the State law are followed. The district is also authorized to make investments in the State Pooled Investment Fund and in repurchase agreements. Repurchase agreements must be approved by the State Director of Local Finance and executed in accordance with procedures established by the State Funding Board. Securities purchased under a repurchase agreement must be obligations of the U.S. Government or obligations guaranteed by the U.S. Government or any of its agencies. When repurchase agreements are executed, the purchase of the securities must be priced at least 2 percent below the market value of the securities on the day of purchase. As of June 30, 2019, the district held no investments.

D. Capital Assets

Capital assets are stated at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight‐line method and a life of 10‐40 years for building renovations, 1‐10 years for the furniture, 3‐7 years for the equipment, and 5 years for the vehicles. The dollar threshold for capitalization is $1,000.

E. Pension Plan

General Information about the Pension Plan: Plan Description

Employees of the district are provided a defined benefit pension plan through the Public Employee Retirement Plan, an agent multiple‐employer pension plan administered by the TCRS. The TCRS was created by state statute under TCA Title 8, Chapters 34‐37. The TCRS Board of Trustees is responsible for the proper operation and administration of the TCRS. The Tennessee Treasury Department, an agency in the legislative branch of state government, administers the plans of the TCRS. The TCRS issues a publicly available financial report that can be obtained at www.treasury.tn.gov/Retirement/Boards-and-Governance/Reporting-and-Investment-Policies. Benefits Provided

TCA Title 8, Chapters 34‐37 establishes the benefit terms and can be amended only by the Tennessee General Assembly. The chief legislative body may adopt the benefit terms permitted by statute. Members are eligible to retire with an unreduced benefit at age 60 with five years of service credit or after 30 years of service credit regardless of age. Benefits are determined by a formula using the member's highest five consecutive year average compensation and the member's years of service credit. Reduced benefits for early retirement are available at age 55 and vested. Members vest with five years of service credit. Service related disability benefits are provided regardless of length of service. Five years of service is required for non‐service related disability eligibility. The service related and non‐service related disability benefits are determined in the same manner as a service

124



retirement benefit but are reduced 10 percent and include projected service credits. A variety of death benefits is available under various eligibility criteria. Member and beneficiary annuitants are entitled to automatic cost‐of‐living adjustments (COLAs) after retirement. A COLA is granted each July for annuitants retired prior to the 2nd of July of the previous year. The COLA is based on the change in the consumer price index (CPI) during the prior calendar year, capped at 3 percent, and applied to the current benefit. No COLA is granted if the change in the CPI is less than one‐half percent. A one percent COLA is granted if the CPI change is between one‐half percent and one percent. A member who leaves employment may withdraw their employee contributions, plus any accumulated interest. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms

At the measurement date of June 30, 2018, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:

Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 9Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 36Active employees 38

83Contributions Contributions for employees are established in the statutes governing the TCRS and may only be changed by the Tennessee General Assembly. The district has adopted a noncontributory plan and makes employer contributions at the rate set by the Board of Trustees as determined by an actuarial valuation. For the year ended June 30, 2019, employer contributions for the district were $202,086 based on a rate of 12.04 percent of covered payroll. By law, employer contributions are required to be paid. The TCRS may intercept the district's state shared taxes if required employer contributions are not remitted. The employer's actuarially determined contribution (ADC) and member contributions are expected to finance the costs of benefits earned by members during the year, the cost of administration, as well as an amortized portion of any unfunded liability. Net Pension Liability (Asset): The district's net pension liability (asset) was measured as of June 30, 2018, and the total pension liability (asset) used to calculate net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.

125

Actuarial Assumptions The total pension liability as of June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions, applied to all periods included in the measurement:


to 3.44% Based on Age, IncludingInflation, Averaging 4%

Investment Rate of Return 7.25%, Net of Pension PlanInvestment Expenses, IncludingInflation


Mortality rates were based on actual experience including an adjustment for some anticipated improvement. The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2018, actuarial valuation were based on the results of an actuarial experience study performed for the period July 1, 2012, through June 30, 2016. The demographic assumptions were adjusted to more closely reflect actual and expected future experience. The long‐term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees in conjunction with the June 30, 2016 actuarial experience study. A blend of future capital market projections and historical market returns was used in a building‐block method in which a best‐estimate of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) is developed for each major asset class. These best‐estimates are combined to produce the long‐term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation of 2.5 percent. The best estimates of geometric real rates of return and the TCRS investment policy target asset allocation for each major asset class are summarized in the following table:

126




Total 100 %

The long‐term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was established by the TCRS Board of Trustees as 7.25 percent based on a blending of the factors described above. Discount Rate The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.25 percent. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that employee contributions will be made at the current rate and that contributions from the district will be made at the actuarially determined contribution rate pursuant to an actuarial valuation in accordance with the funding policy of the TCRS Board of Trustees and as required to be paid by state statute. Based on those assumptions, the pension plan's fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive members. Therefore, 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.

Payable to the Pension Plan At June 30, 2019, Washington County Emergency Communications District reported a payable of $20,004 for the outstanding amount of contributions to the pension plan required at the year ended June 30, 2019.

F. Other Postemployment Benefits

Plan Types The district has adopted a plan that provides post‐employment medical, dental, and vision benefits for retirees and their dependents. Upon retirement, individuals are eligible to continue to receive coverage under the employer's group medical, dental and vision plans. The OPEB plan is a single‐employer defined benefit OPEB plan administered by the District. The plan is funded on a pay‐as‐you‐go basis. No assets are accumulated in a trust that meets all of the criteria in GASB Statement No. 75, paragraph 4. The district’s Board of Directors has the authority to establish and amend benefit terms and contributions requirements. The district offers other post‐employment benefits for full time regular employees retiring under the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) guidelines. There is no minimum age requirement with 30 years of service or age 60 with 25 years of service. If the employee transferred from the City of Johnson City in 1988, they are eligible to count their full time employment with the city toward the eligibility year requirement. Eligible retirees receive medical, vision and dental insurance until eligible for Medicare. If coverage for legal dependents is in place, the legal dependent's insurance benefit will cease when they are Medicare eligible. The eligible retirees will contribute two times the amount that a current active employee contributes. The surviving spouse can carry insurance for 60 days from the date of death of a retired employee at current rates. Employees Covered by Benefit Terms. As of the June 30, 2018 measurement date with a roll forward to June 30, 2019, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:

Inactive employees or beneficiaries currently receiving benefits 0Inactive employees entitled to but not yet receiving benefits 0Active employees 32

130

The district's total OPEB liability of $957,631 was measured based on an actuarial valuation performed as of July 1, 2017, with a roll forward to June 30, 2019 and a measurement date of June 30, 2018. Actuarial assumptions and other inputs. The total OPEB liability in the June 30, 2019, actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions and other inputs, applied to all period included in the measurement, unless otherwise specified: Discount Assumption. A discount rate of 3.5 percent (per the actuarial report) was used. This rate was based on the current yield for 20‐year, tax‐exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average rating of AA/Aa or higher. Healthcare Trend Assumption. The medical cost increase represents the combination of the inflation in the price of healthcare, changes in utilization, technological advances and changes in the health status of plan participants. The rates were based on medical industry expectations of future increases adjusted to reflect historical premium rate changes within the district’s health insurance plans. Rates for 2031 and beyond were based on projections of the Office of the Actuary at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, as published in National Health Expenditures Projections: 2016-2025. Average claims costs for future years were assumed to increase at the rates below:

Years Medical Dental,Beginning Drug Rate Vision Rate

2018-2020 7.75 % 4.00 %2021-2022 7.25 4.002023-2024 6.75 4.002025-2026 6.25 4.002027-2028 5.75 4.002029-2030 5.25 4.002031+ 5.00 4.00

Mortality. These rates were based on a June 30, 2016 TCRS Experience Study with the MP‐2015 generational improvement scale (multiplied by 50 percent). Disability, Retirement and Turnover. These rates were from the June 30, 2016, TCRS Experience Study. Per Capita Benefit Costs. Health benefit costs were based on group medical premiums for the period July 1, 2017, through June 30, 2019. The premiums were converted to age-specific charges using the actuary’s rating model factors.

131

Salary Increases. Future salaries were expected to increase at an annual rate of 2.00 percent. Spousal Coverage. The valuation assumes that those currently with family coverage will have a spouse and/or dependents that will also be covered upon retirement. Changes in the Total OPEB Liability Changes in the Total OPEB Liability were as follows:

G. Lease

In March 2017, the district and Washington County Emergency Management Agency (EMA) entered into a lease agreement for space in the new building. EMA began leasing space from the district for an initial term of ten years with the option to renew the lease for two five-year terms. Total annual payments are $1.00 per year plus EMA will pay the district 26 percent of the total utilities per month. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, total rent income received was $13,800.

H. Contract

The district has a contract for telephone access lines from Centurylink‐United Telephone Southeast. The billing is reviewed annually based on the number of access lines in‐service at calendar year end. This monthly base rate is influenced by various additional charges including database, switching fees, transfers and other services.

I. Risk Management Activities

The district carries insurance coverage for property, auto liability, workman’s compensation, general liability and contents. There have been no significant changes from the previous fiscal year in the types of coverage. There have been no claims in the past three fiscal years that were not covered by insurance.

133

J. Concentration

The district depends upon financial resources flowing from, or associated with, both the State of Tennessee and local governments. Because of this dependency, the district is subject to changes in specific flows of intergovernmental revenues based on modifications to State laws and State and local appropriations.

Note: Overlapping governments are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographicboundaries of the county. This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of thoseoverlapping governments that is borne by the residents and businesses of Washington County,Tennessee. This process recognizes that, when considering the government's ability to issue and repaylong-term debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and businesses should be taken intoaccount. However, this does not imply that every taxpayer is a resident, and therefore responsible forrepaying the debt, of each overlapping government.

SINGLE AUDIT SECTION

257

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other MattersBased on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance With Government

Auditing Standards

Independent Auditor’s Report



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 aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Washington County, Tennessee, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Washington County's basic financial statements, as listed in the table of contents, and have issued our report thereon dated November 27, 2019. Our report includes a reference to other auditors who audited the financial statements of the Washington County Emergency Communications District as described in our report on Washington County's financial statements. This report does not include the results of the other auditors' testing of internal control over financial reporting or compliance and other matters that are reported on separately by those auditors.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered Washington County's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the 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 Washington County's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Washington County's internal control.

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. 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.

258

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. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. We did identify certain deficiencies in internal control, described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs, that we consider to be significant deficiencies: 2019-001, 2019-002(B), 2019-003, 2019-004, and 2019-006.

Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether Washington County'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 determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards and are described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs as items: 2019-002(A) and 2019-005.

Washington County's Responses to the Findings

Washington County's responses to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs. Washington County's responses were not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on them.

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 entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering Washington County’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program; Report on Internal Control Over Compliance; and Report on the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal

Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance

Independent Auditor’s Report



Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program

We have audited Washington County's compliance with the types of compliance requirements

described in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of Washington County's major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2019. Washington County's major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs.

Management's Responsibility

Management is responsible for compliance with the federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of its federal awards applicable to its federal programs.

Auditor's Responsibility

Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of Washington County's major federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those standards and the Uniform Guidance require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes

260

examining, on a test basis, evidence about Washington County's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.

We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of Washington County's compliance.

Opinion on Each Major Federal Program

In our opinion, Washington County complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2019.

Report on Internal Control Over Compliance

Management of Washington County is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our audit of compliance, we considered Washington County's internal control over compliance with the types of requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on compliance for each major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of Washington County's internal control over compliance.

A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the

261

requirements of the Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance

We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of Washington County, Tennessee, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise Washington County’s basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated November 27, 2019, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the basic financial statements. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the 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 Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

Very truly yours,

PART I, SUMMARY OF AUDITOR'S RESULTS

266

PART II, FINDINGS RELATING TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Findings and recommendations, as a result of our audit, are presented below. We reviewed these findings and recommendations with management to provide an opportunity for their response. Written responses for all findings are paraphrased and presented following each finding and recommendation. Management’s corrective action plans, whether related to the financial statements or federal awards, are presented separately in the Management’s Corrective Action Plan in the Single Audit Section of this report. Findings relating specifically to the audit of federal awards, if any, are separately presented under Part III, Findings and Questioned Costs for Federal Awards.


FINDING 2019-001 THE OFFICES HAD DEFICIENCIES IN THE ADMINISTRATION OF PAYROLL (Internal Control – Significant Deficiency Under Government Auditing Standards)

In reviewing the administration of payroll, we noted that in most instances employees’ time worked and leave taken were entered directly into the county’s payroll software system by officials or department heads, and the payroll software documented the person entering and approving the employees’ time. However, summary time reports or individual time sheets were not always forwarded to the Payroll Department to support the time worked and leave taken entered into the payroll system or to ensure the payroll was processed accurately. We were informed that the individual employee time sheets were maintained by the official or department head in most instances. While the ability to report time through the payroll software system is useful, sound business practices dictate the underlying time sheets or other supporting documentation should be reviewed periodically by the Payroll Department staff to confirm that the employees’ time worked and leave taken information being reported is accurate. If time sheets are not reviewed for accuracy, there is an increased risk that time will be reported and paid incorrectly. This deficiency exists because management does not have access to all supporting time records.

RECOMMENDATION

Employee time sheets and other supporting documentation should be reviewed periodically by employees of the Payroll Department to confirm its accuracy.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSE – COUNTY MAYOR AND DIRECTOR ACCOUNTS AND BUDGETS

Of the 26 pay periods in the year, management will ensure that the Payroll Department sample the reported time by comparison of elected official’s electronic postings of the time worked to manually signed and approved time sheets.

FINDING 2019-002 THE SOLID WASTE OFFICE DID NOT DEPOSIT SOME FUNDS WITHIN THREE DAYS OF COLLECTION (A. – Noncompliance Under Government Auditing Standards; B – Internal Control – Significant Deficiency Under Government Auditing Standards)

As part of our audit procedures for obtaining reasonable assurance that funds collected at the Tire Recycling Facility and the Solid Waste Office were receipted and deposited properly, we judgmentally selected receipts for the months of January and April 2019 to trace to deposits with the county Trustee’s Office. Our examination revealed the following deficiencies, which can be attributed to a lack of management oversight.

A. Some funds were not deposited within three days of collection as required by Section5-8-207, Tennessee Code Annotated. During the months tested, four items were heldfrom four to seven business days after being receipted before being deposited withthe county Trustee’s Office. The delay in depositing funds weakens internal controlsover collections and increases the risk of fraud and misappropriation.

B. Some checks receipted at the Solid Waste Courthouse Office from charge customerswere often dated well in advance of the receipt date. This indicates that the checkswere held for an undetermined amount of time prior to being receipted and depositedwith the county Trustee’s Office. This practice of issuing receipts subsequent to theactual collection increases the risks that collections will not be accounted forproperly.

RECOMMENDATION

All collections should be deposited within three days as required by state statute, and receipts should be issued at the time of collection.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSE – COUNTY MAYOR AND DIRECTOR OF ACCOUNTS AND BUDGETS

Illness and other absenteeism contributed to the failure to meet the three-day deposit law. Management is concerned that checks were being held or otherwise not being deposited until after three days of receipt. Checks received via mail will be forwarded directly to the Trustee’s Office for deposit.

FINDING 2019-003 VARIOUS SCHOOL DEPARTMENT FUNDS HAD DEFICIENCIES IN THE MAINTENANCE OF PAYROLL DEDUCTION RECORDS AND ACCOUNTS (Internal Control – Significant Deficiency Under Government Auditing Standards)

Our audit revealed the following deficiencies related to the administration and maintenance of the accounting and reporting systems.

A. Several general ledger payroll liability accounts were not reconciled adequately withsubsidiary payroll records, monthly billings, and payments made from various SchoolDepartment funds. As a result, audit adjustments in the General Purpose School Fundtotaling $548,703 were made to the Medical Insurance Contribution payroll liabilityaccount.

B. The employee health insurance bank clearing account had not been reconciled adequatelywith the general ledger payroll liability accounts resulting in an unidentified balance.The School Department maintains a bank clearing account for deposits of employeepayroll deductions and School Department contributions for employee health insurancepremiums, which are then withdrawn from the account by the state insurance programadministrator. When determining the amount to remit to the account from the GeneralPurpose School Fund, the School Department failed to consider deposits made from theCentral Cafeteria Fund. This resulted in an overpayment of $112,774 from the GeneralPurpose School Fund to the employee health insurance clearing account. Because theaccount was not reconciled adequately with the general ledger, instead of recognizing theproper expenditure amount, an estimated payable totaling $315,000 was booked at June30 for the total of the July 2019 withdrawal. At June 30, 2019, the employee healthinsurance bank clearing account had a balance of $474,408, and the General PurposeSchool Fund had an estimated payable of $315,000 totaling $789,408. After deposit of the$315,000 on July 12, 2019, and the withdrawal of $784,130 for July premiums, anunidentified balance of $5,278 ($789,408 less $784,130) remained.

Sound business practices dictate that financial records should be reviewed for accuracy and completeness, and all general ledger accounts should be reconciled monthly. The failure to properly maintain accounting records on a current basis diminishes the usefulness of the financial records as a management tool and results in a loss of budgetary and accounting control and increases the risk that errors will not be discovered and corrected in a timely manner. These deficiencies can be attributed to lack of management oversight and the failure of management to take proper responsibility for the accounting records.

RECOMMENDATION

All payroll deductions, general ledger payroll liability accounts, and the employee health insurance bank clearing account should be reconciled accurately on a monthly basis with subsidiary records, billings, receipts, and payments. The School Department should maintain accounting records on a current basis and review the financial statements for accuracy and completeness and provide the School Board with accurate financial reports each month.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSE – SCHOOL DEPARTMENT DIRECTOR OF FINANCE

To clarify, it is agreed the overall financial statements are correct in relation to capturing all Insurance Expenses for the 2019 fiscal year. It was discovered in relation to the way Dietary Insurance Expense was being captured; it was not being adequately accounted on the Expense Report on a monthly basis but was being captured at year-end when the accounts were trued up. However, the true-up was increasing the Instructional category instead of the Dietary category. Since this was discovered, Dietary Insurance Expense is now being captured correctly on a monthly basis.

In relation to the $112,774 overpayment to the Employee Health Insurance Account, this represents an overage amount deposited into the bank account only and not an overpayment to the actual State Insurance Plan. This was caused by a separate deposit that is made on a monthly basis from the Dietary Department relating to the Dietary employees’ portion of his or her Health Insurance. This is now being properly accounted for in the monthly Health Insurance payment calculation and is not expected to reoccur.

Additional tracking of cash flows into and out of the Insurance Bank Clearing Account has been put in place on a monthly basis. The Health Insurance Premiums for the State Insurance Plan are paid monthly; however, the employee contribution portion is only deducted on a 10-month basis.

FINDING 2019-004 THE SCHOOL FEDERAL PROJECTS FUND HAD A CASH OVERDRAFT OF $29,958 AT JUNE 30, 2019 (Internal Control – Significant Deficiency Under Government Auditing Standards)

The School Federal Projects Fund had a cash overdraft of $29,958 at June 30, 2019. This cash overdraft resulted from the issuance of checks exceeding cash on deposit with the county trustee despite a transfer of $500,000 from the General Purpose School Fund in the prior year for cash flow purposes. Sound business practices dictate that expenditures be held within available funds. This cash overdraft was liquidated on July 10, 2019, with the receipt of funds from the Tennessee Department of Education.

RECOMMENDATION

School Department personnel should monitor their cash balance and not issue checks exceeding cash on deposit with the county trustee.


The overage of $29,958 was listed in relation to the accounting records; however, the actual bank clearing account with the trustee was not overdrawn. Included in the year ending financials on June 30, 2019, were two deferred payrolls for July 2019 and August 2019, which totaled $86,053 for each month. A payroll payable should have been set up for these two months, which would have appropriately reflected an additional $172,106 in the cash balance for federal projects as of June 30, 2019. Going forward deferred payroll amounts at year-end closing will be properly reflected as a payroll payable, which will more accurately reflect the cash balance.

FINDING 2019-005 UNCLAIMED FUNDS WERE NOT REPORTED AND PAID TO THE STATE (Noncompliance Under Government Auditing Standards)

The School Department did not report and pay to the state unclaimed funds (old outstanding checks) totaling $58,335 and $1,295 in the General Purpose School and School Federal Projects funds, respectively. At June 30, 2019, the School Department had 63 outstanding checks totaling $58,335 in the General Purpose School Fund and seven outstanding checks totaling $1,295 in the School Federal Projects Fund that were all issued prior to July 1, 2017. The Unclaimed Property Act, Section 66-29-101, et seq., Tennessee Code Annotated, provides that any funds held for more than one year and unclaimed by the owner are considered abandoned. This statute further provides for the funds to be reported and paid to the state Treasurer’s Office.

RECOMMENDATION

The School Department should report and pay to the state unclaimed funds held for more than one year as required by state statute.


I concur with this finding. Additional focus and direction will be devoted to processing the above amounts as unclaimed property with the State of Tennessee in fiscal year 2020.

FINDING 2019-006 THE OFFICE DID NOT REVIEW ITS SOFTWARE AUDIT LOGS (Internal Control – Significant Deficiency Under Government Auditing Standards)

The software application used by the office generated logs that displayed changes and deletions made by users. Because these logs provided the only audit trail of these changes and deletions, the logs should be routinely reviewed for inappropriate activity. Management was aware of their importance but chose to discontinue the routine review of these audit logs. When the importance of these logs was again brought to management’s attention in June 2019, they resumed the review process. Without knowledge of system activity, errors and improper changes could occur and go undetected.

RECOMMENDATION

Management should review its audit logs on a routine basis. Any unusual transactions should be investigated.

MANAGEMENT’S RESPONSE – COUNTY CLERK

I concur with this finding, and a corrective action plan has been implemented.

BEST PRACTICE

Accounting literature describes a best practice as a recommended policy, procedure, or technique that aids management in improving financial performance. Historically, a best practice has consistently shown superior results over conventional methods.

The Division of Local Government Audit strongly believes that the item noted below is a best practice that should be adopted by the governing body as a means of significantly improving accountability and the quality of services provided to the citizens of Washington County.

WASHINGTON COUNTY SHOULD ADOPT A CENTRAL SYSTEM OF ACCOUNTING, BUDGETING, AND PURCHASING

THAT INCLUDES THE DISCRETELY PRESENTED WASHINGTON COUNTY SCHOOL DEPARTMENT

Washington County does not have a central system of accounting, budgeting, and purchasing that includes the discretely presented Washington County School Department. Sound business practices dictate that establishing a central system would significantly improve internal controls over the accounting, budgeting, and purchasing processes. The absence of a central system of accounting, budgeting, and purchasing has been a management decision by the county commission resulting in decentralization and some duplication of effort. The Division of Local Government Audit strongly believes that the adoption of a central system of accounting, budgeting, and purchasing is a best practice that would significantly improve accountability and the quality of services provided to the citizens of Washington County. Therefore, we recommend the adoption of a centralized system of accounting, budgeting, and purchasing as authorized in the Tennessee Code Annotated or a private act, which would provide for a central system of accounting, budgeting, and purchasing covering all county departments.
