The Honorable Linda Hardee, Mayor, •and Members of the City Council , City'of Kaplan, Louisiana
We have audited the accompanying financial statements.of the governmental activities, the busmess-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund, information of. the City of Kaplan, Louisiana, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2009, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the City's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these fmancial statements based ohour audit
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to fmancial,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 fmancialstatements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estiniates niade by management, as well as evaluating.the overall fmancial statement presentation. ~ We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In OUT opinion, the fmancial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana, as, of June 30, 2009, and the respective changes in financial position, and cash flows, where applicable, thereof for the year then ended in conformit>' with accounting pririciples generally accepted in the Uiiited States of America.
In accordance; with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued a report dated October 7, 2009 on our consideration of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's intemal control over financial reporting and on oiir tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is-to describe the scope of our testing of intemal control over fmancial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the mtemal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part.of an audit performed.in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of our audit.

The required supplementary information on pages 44 and 45 is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management. regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and exjsress no opinion on it.
The City of Kaplan has not presented management's discussion and analysis that the Governmental Accounting Standards Board has determined is necessary to supplement, although not required to be part of, the basic financial statements.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the fmancial statements that collectively comprise the City of Kaplan's basic fmancial statements. The other supplementary information on pages 50 through 55 is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic fmancial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards (p. 61) is presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by U.S. Office of Management and Budget Circular A-133, "Audits of States, Local Governments, and Non-Profit Organizations", and is also not a required part of the basic fmancial statements of the City. Such information, except for that portion marked "unaudited" on which we express no opinion, has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied iii the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic fmancial statements taken as a whole.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements
(1) Surrmaarv of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying financial statements of the City of Kaplan (the City) have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as applied to governmental units. GAAP includes all relevant Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) pronouncements. In the government-wide fmancial statements and the fund financial statements for the proprietary funds, , Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) pronouncements and Accounting Principles Board (APB) opinions on or before November 30, 1989, have been apphed unless those'pronouncements conflict with or coiitradict GASB pronouncements, in which case, GASB prevails. The accounting and reporting framework and the more significant accoimting policies are discussed in subsequent subsections of this note.
A. Financial Reporting Entity
The City of Kaplan was incorporated in 1902 under the provisions of the Lav/rason Act. The City operates under a Mayor-City Council form of government and provides the foljowing services as authorized by its charter: public safety, police, fire, civil defense, highways and streets, sanitation, culture - recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administrative services.
A financial reporting entity consists of (1) the primary government, (2) organizations for which the prirnary government is financially accomitable, and (3) other organizations for which the primary government is not accountable, but for which the nature and "significance of their relationship with the primary government are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity's financial statements to be misleading or incomplete. GASB Statement No. 14, The Financial Reporting Entity. estabhsheis criteria for determining which entities should be considered a component unit and, as such, part of the reporting entity for financial reporting purposes. The basic criteria are as follows:
1. A potential component unit must have separate corporate powers that distinguish it as being legally separate from the primary government. These include the right to incur its own debt, levy its own taxes and charges, expropriate property in its own name, sue and be sued in its own name without recourse to a State or local government, and the right to buy, sell, lease, and mortgage property in its own name.
2. The primary government must be financially accountable for a potential component unit. Financial "accbiintabihty may exist as a result of the primary government appointing a voting majority of the potential component unit's governing body; their ability to impose their will on the potential component unit by significantly influencing the programs, projects, activities, or level of services performed or provided by the potential component unit; or the existence of a financial benefit or burden. In addition, financial accountability may also exist as a result of a potential component unit being fiscally dependent on the primary govenmient.
17
CFTY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
In some instances, the potential component unit should be included in the reporting entity (even when the criteria in No. 2 above are met), if exclusion would render the reporting entity's financial statements incomplete or misleading.
Based on the foregoing criteria, the following governmental organizations are not considered part of the City and are thus excluded from the accompanying financial statements for the reasons noted:
The Kaplan Housing Authority was chartered by the City, and its Board of Directors was appointed by the Mayor and City Council. However, the City's oversight responsibilities in the management of operations and financial accountability are remote.
The City of Kaplan has no authority over nor is it involved with the record keeping of the Kaplan Volunteer Fire Department.
The Kaplan City Court is operated under the directorship of the Kaplan City Judge who is an elected public official. Revenues are derived from court costs and appropriations from the City's General Fund. However, the City carmot significantly influence operations nor does it have responsibility for fiscal management.
B. Basis of Presentation
Government-Wide Financial Statements (GWFS)
The statement of net assets and statement of activities displays information about the City of Kaplaii," the reporting govemhaent, as a whole. They include all fimds of the reporting entity. The statements distinguish between governmental and business-type activities. Govermnental activities generally are financed through taxes, intergovernmental revenues, and other nohexchange revenues. Business-type activities are financed in whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods or services. The City's intemal service fund is a govenmiental activity. Intemal service fimd activity is eliminated to avoid "doubling up" revenues and expenses.
The statement of activities presents a coiriparison between direct expenses and program revenues for the business-type activities of the City and for each function of the City's governmental activities. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated vnth a program or function and therefore, are clearly identifiable to a particular fimction. Program revenues include (a) fees, fines, and charges paid by the recipients of goods or services offered by the programs, and (b) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular program. Revenues that are not classified as program revenues, including all taxes, are presented as general revenues.

Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
Fund Financial Statements
The accounts of.the City are organized and operated on the basis of funds. A fimd is an independent fiscal and accounting entity with a separate set of self-balancing accounts. Fund accounting segregates funds according to their intended purpose and is used to aid management in demonstrating compliance with finance-related legal and contractual provisions. The minimum number of funds is maintained consistent with legal and managerial requirements. Fund financial statements report detailed information about the City.
The various fimds of the City are classified into two categories: governmental and proprietary. The emphasis on fund financial statements is on major governmental and enterprise fimds, each displayed in a separate column. A fund is considered major if it is the primary operating fund of the City or meets the. following criteria:
a. Total assets, liabilities,,revenues or expenditures/expenses of that individual governmental or entetprise.fund are at least 10 percent of the corresponding total for all fimds of that category or type; and
b. Total assets, liabilities, revenues, or expenditures/expenses of the individual governmental or enterprise fimd are at least 5 percent of the corresponding • total of all governmental and enterprise funds combmed.
The major funds of the City are described below:
Governmental Funds -
General Fund
The General fund is the general operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources except-those required to be accounted for in another fimd. All general .tax revenues and other receipts that are not allocated by law or contractual agreement to some other fund are accounted for in this fimd. General operating expenditures and the capital in^rovement costs that are not paid through other funds are paid from the general fund.
Special Revenue Fund -
Sales Tax Fund
The Sales Tax Fund is used to account for the proceeds of a one percent sales and use tax that is legally restricted to expenditures for a specific purpose.
19
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
Proprietary Funds -
The City reports the following major enterprise fimd:
Utility Fund
The Utility fund is used to account for operations (a) that are financed and operated in a manner similar to private business enterprises - where the intent of the governing body is that the costs (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or services to the general public on a continuing basis be financed or recovered primarily through user charges; or (b) where the goveriiing body has decided that periodic determination of revenues earned, expenses incurred, and/or net income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accoimtability, or other purposes. The City applies all applicable FASB pronoimcements issued after November 30, 1989 in accounting and reporting for its enterprise fund.
Other Fund Types-
The City also reports the following fund types:
Intemal Service Funds
Intemal service fimds are used to account for the financing of goods or services provided by one department or agency to other departments or agencies of the governmental unit, or to other governmental units, on a cost-reimbursement basis. The City's intemal service fimd is the Self Insurance Fund. This proprietary fund is reported with governmental activities in the govemment-wide statements.
C. Measurement Focus/Basis of Accounting
Measurement focus is a term used to describe "which" transactions are recorded within the various financial statements. Basis of accounting refers to **when" transactions are recorded regardless of the measurement focus applied.
Measurement Focus
On the government-wide statement of net assets and the statement of activities, both governmental and bushiess-type activities are presented using the economic resources measurement focus as defined in item b. below.
In the fimd financial statements, the "current financial resources" measurement fociis or the "economic resources" measurement focus is used as appropriate:
20
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Contmued)
a. All governmental fimds utilize a "current financial resources" measurement focus. Only current fmancial assets and liabilities are generally included on thefr balance sheets. Their operating statements present sources and uses of available spendable financial resources during a given period. These fimds use fimd balance as their measure of available spendable financial resources at the end of the period.
b. The proprietary fund utiUzes an "economic resources" measurement focus. The accounting objectives of this measurement focus are the determination of operating income, changes in net assets (or cost recovery), financial position, and cash flows. All assets and liabilities (whether current or noncuxrent) associated v dth their activities are reported. Proprietary fimd equity is classified as net assets.
Basis of Accounting
In the govemrhent-wide statement of net assets and statement of activities, both governmental and business-type activities are presented using the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recorded when the liability is incurred or-economic asset used. Revenues, expenses, gains, losses, assets, and liabilities resulting from exchange and exchange-like transactions are recognized when the exchange takes place.
Governmental fund financial statemeiits are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they. are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be^available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay Uabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures (including capital outlay) generally" are recorded when .a liability is mcurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures are recorded only when payment is due.
The proprietary fimd utilizes the accrual basis of accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when eamed and expenses are recorded when the liabiUty isincurred or economic asset is used.
Program revenues
Program revenues included in the statement of activities are derived directly from the program itself or from parties outside the City's taxpayers or citizenry, as a whole; program revenues reduce the cost of the function to be financed from the City's general revenues.
21
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
Allocation of indirect expenses
The City reports all direct expenses by fimction in the statement of activities. Direct expervses are those that are clearly identifiable with a function. Indirect expenses of other functions are not allocated to those fimctions but are reported separately in the statement of activities. Depreciation expense is specifically identified by function and is included in the direct expense of each function. Interest on general long-term debt is considered an indirect expense and is reported separately on the statement of activities.
D. Assets. Liabihties and Equity
Cash, interest-bearing deposits, and investments
For pmposes of the statements of net assets, cash and interest-bearing deposits include all demand accounts, saving accounts, and certificates of deposits of the City. For the purpose of the proprietary fimd statement of cash flows, "caish and cash equivalents" include all demand and savings accounts, and certificates of deposit or short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased. See Note (4) for other GASB No. 3 disclosures.
Investments
Under state, law, the City may deposit fiinds with a fiscal agent organized under the laws of the State of Louisiana, the laws of any other state in the union, or the laws of the Uiiited States. The City may invest in United States bonds, treasury notes and bills, government backed agency securities, or certificates and time deposits of state banks organized under Louisiana Law and national banks having principal offices in Louisiana. In addition, local govenmaents in Louisiana are authorized to invest in the Louisiana Asset Management Pool (LAMP), a noi^rofit corporation formed by the State Treasurer and organized under the laws of the State of Louisiana, which operates a local government investment pool.
Interfund receivables and payables
During the course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds that may result in amounts owed between fimds. Those related to goods and services type transactions are classified as "due to and from other funds." Short-term interfimd loans are reported as "interfimd receivables and payables." Long-term interfimd loans (noncurrent portion) are reported as "advances from and to other funds." InterfimdTeceivables and payables between fimds vidthin govenmiental activities are eliminated in the statement of net assets.
22
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
Receivables
In the govemment-vdde statements, receivables consist of all revenues eamed at year-end and not yet received. Major receivable balances for the governmental activities include ad valorem and sales and use taxes. Business-type activities report customer's utility service receivables as their majoi: receivables. Uncollectible utility service receivables are recognized as bad debts through the establishment of an allowance accoiuit at the. time information becomes available which would indicated the uncollectiblity of the particular receivable. The allowance for imcollectibles for customers' utility receivables was $421,673 at June 30, 2009. Unbilled utility service receivable resulting from utiUty services rendered between the date of meter reading and billing and the end of the month are recorded at year-end.
Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plan^ equipment, and infi-astmcture assets, are reported in the applicable govenmiental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are capitalized at historical cost or estimated cost if historical is not available. Donated assets are recorded as capital assets at their estimated fair market value at the date of donation. The City maintains a threshold level of $1,000,or more for capitalizing capital assets.
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. Prior to July 1, 2001, governmental funds' infrastmcture assets were not capitahzed. These assets have been valued at estimated historical cost.
Depreciation of all exhaustible capital assets is recorded as an allocated expense in the statement of activities, with accumiJated depreciation reflected in the statement of net assets. Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives using the straight-line method of depreciation. The range of estimated useful lives by type of asset is as follows:
Buildings 40 years Equipment 5-30 years Utility system and improvements 25 years Infrastructure 20-50 years
In the fimd finaiicial statements, capital assets, used in govemmental fimd operations are accounted for as capital outlay expenditures of the govemmental fimd upon acquisition. Capital assets used in proprietary fund operations are accounted for the same as in the govenunent-wide statements.
23
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Fmancial Statements (Continued)
Compensated Absences
It is the City's pohcy to permit employees to accumulate eamed but unused vacation and sick leave benefits. Sick leave vest only upon retirement, therefore an accrual is made only when an employee is eligible for retirement. Amounts are accmed when incurred iii proprietary, fimds and reported as a fund liability. Amounts that are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources is reported as expenditure and a fund liabiUty of the govemmental fund that will pay it.
Restricted Assets
Restiicted assets include cash and-interest-bearing deposits of the proprietary fund that are legally restricted as.to their use. The restricted assets are related to the revenue bond accounts and utihty meter deposits.
Long-term debt
The accounting treatment of long-term debt depends on whether the assets are used in govemmental fund operations or proprietary fimd operations and whether they are reported m the government-wide or fund financial statements.
All long-term debt to be repaid from govemmental and business-type resources are reported as liabilities in the govemment-wide statements. The long-term debt consists primarily of the revenue bonds payable and utility meter deposits payable.
Long-term debt for governmental funds is not reported as liabilities in the fund financial statements. The debt proceeds are reported as other financing sources and payment of principal and interest reported as expenditures. The accounting for proprietary fund long-term debt is the same in'the fund statements as it is in the govemment-wide statements.
Equity Classification
In the govemment-v^ade statements, equity is classified as net assets and displayed in three coriiponents:
Invested in capital assets, net of related debt - Consists of capital assets mcluding 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, constmction, or improvement of those assets.
Restricted net assets - Consists of net assets 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.
24
CITY OF KAPLAN, LOUISIANA
Notes to Basic Financial Statements (Continued)
Unrestricted net assets - All other net assets that do not meet the definition of "restricted" or "invested in capital assets, net of related debt."
In the fimd statements, govemmental fund equity is classified as fund balance. Fund balance is further classified as reserved and imreserved, with unreserved further split between designated and undesignated. Proprietary fund equity is classified the same as in the govemment-wide statements.
E. Revenues, Expenditures, and Expenses
Operating Revenues and Expenses
Operating revenues and expenses for proprietary funds are those that result from providing services and producing and delivering goods and/or services. It also includes all revenue and expenses not related to capital and related financing, noncapital financing, or inyestuig activities.

7. Budgets for all funds are adopted on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Budgeted amounts are as originally adopted or as finally amended by the Council.
H. Use of Estiniates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accoimting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Romero, et al vs. the City of Kaplan, The United States Fidelity & Guaranty frisurance Company, the City's insurer, has paid its policy limits of $100,000 plus interest, leaving ah outstanding judgment against the City of Kaplan for $89,540, plus interest.
hi July of 2006, the City and the plaintiff in the above mentioned case agreed to a settlement in the amount of-$100,000. This settlement is to be paid in monthlyinstallments of $2,000 per month ending in June 2010.
Annual payments are due as follows:
Year Ending Jiine 30, Amount
2010 $ 28,000
On January 3, 1994, the City entered into a consent judgment awarding Washington National Insurance Company $25,988. plus attorney fees in the amount of $6,000, plus legal interest from May 1,1990 until paid for suras due on the group health and accident insurance.policy.
In the opiiiion of the City's legal counsel, this judgment operates as an encumbrance against the City, although it is judiciaUy unenforceable based on legal precedents, which have held that property, which~is owned by the pubhc and is being used for public purposes, is exempt from seizure. However, legal counsel further states that the property owned by a municipality, but which is being used in a nongovernmental, profit-making way, may be seized.
As a result of this legal opinion, no provisions have been made in the financial statements for the amount of the outstanding judgment.
The City is also a defendant in various other lawsuits; however, management and counsel for the City of Kaplan are unable to reasonably estimate at this time the amount of liability in excess of insurance coverage which may be incurred if adverse decisions are rendered.

. REPORT ON INTERNALCONTRpL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF
FINANCIAL-STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
The Honorable Linda Hardee, Mayor and Members of the City Council. City of Kaplan, Louisiana
We have audited the financial statements of the govemmental activities, the business-type activities, each major.fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2009,,which collectively comprise the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated October 7, 2009. We conducted oiir 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.
Internal Control Ovei- Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audita we considered the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's intemal control over financial re^rting as a basis for designing pur auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the fmancial statements, biit not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's.intemal control over fmancial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinionon the effectiveness of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's intemal control over financial reporting.
Our consideration of intemal control over financial.reporting was for the limited purpose described m the preceding paragraph and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in intemal control over fmancial reporting that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. However, as discussed below, we identified certain deficiencies in internal control over financial.reporting that we consider to be significant deficiencies.
Member of: AMERICAN iNSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
57 Member of;
SOCIETY OF LOUISIANA CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
A control deficiency 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 misstatements on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report fmancial data in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a remote likelihood that a misstatement of the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's fmancial statements that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's intemal control. We consider the deficiencies described in the accompanying summary schedule of current and prior year audit findings and management's corrective action plan as items 09-l(IC), 09-2(IC), and 09-3(IC) to be significant deficiencies in intemal control over financial reporting.
A materia! weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements will not be prevented or detected by the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's intemal control.
Our consideration of the internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in the intemal control that might be significant deficiencies and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all significant deficiencies that are also considered to be material weaknesses. We believe the significant deficiencies identified as items 09-1 (IC), 09-2(IC), and 09-3(IC) in the accompanying summary schedule of current arid prior year audit findings and management's corrective action plan are material weaknesses.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City of Kaplan, Louisiana's fmancial statements are free of 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, providmg an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Govemmerit Auditing Standards.
The City of Kaplan's response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying summary schedule of current and prior year audit findings and management's corrective action plan. We did not audit the City's response and, accordingly, we express no opmion on it.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management. City Council, others within the entity, and federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is hot intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. However, under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by the Legislative Auditor as a public document.

REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH REQUIREMENTS APPUCABLE TO BACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
~ COMPLIANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH OMB CIRCULAR A-133 .
The-Honorable Linda Hardee^ Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Kaplan, Louisiana
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of the City of Kaplan (the City), with the types of compliance requirements described in the U. S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133 Compliance Supplement that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2009. ITie City's major federal programs are identified iri the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. Compliance with the requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to each of its.major federal programs is the responsibility of the City's management Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City's compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicableto fmancial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United Statespand OMB Circular Arl33, Audits of States. Local Governments aind Non-Profit Organizations. Those standards and OMB Circular A-133 require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all materiaUrespects, with the requirements referred to above that are applicable to each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2009;

Intemal Control Over Compliance
The management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective intemal control over compliance with requirements of laws, regulations, contracts and grants applicable to federal programs. In planning and performing our audit, we considered the City's internal control over compliance with requirements that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on compliance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's intemal control over compliance.
A control deficiency in an entity's intemal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performmg their assigned functions, to prevent or detect noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's ability to administer a federal pi-ogram such that there is more than a remote likelihood that noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is more than inconsequential will not be prevented or detected by the entity's intemal control.
A material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program will not be prevented or detected by the entity's intemal control.
Our consideration of the intemal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in intemal control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in intemal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defmed above.
This report is intended solely for, the information and use of management, the City Council, others within the entity, and federal awarding agencies and pass-through entities and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties. However, under Louisiana Revised Statute 24:513, this report is distributed by the Legislative Auditor as a public document.
