June 22, 2010
To the Honorable Mayor, Members of the Hopkins City Council and the Citizens of the
City of Hopkins, Minnesota:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the City of Hopkins, Minnesota (the City)
for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009 is hereby submitted. This report was prepared in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as established by the
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and meets the requirements of the State
Auditor’s Office.
This report consists of management’s representations concerning the finances of the City of
Hopkins. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for both the completeness and
reliability of all of the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for
making these representations, management of the City of Hopkins has established a comprehensive
internal control framework that is designed both to protect the government’s assets from loss, theft,
or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City of Hopkins
financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not
outweigh their benefits, the City of Hopkins comprehensive framework of internal controls has been
designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be
free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and
belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.
The City of Hopkins financial statements have been audited by LarsonAllen LLP, a firm of licensed
certified public accountants. The goal of the independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance
that the financial statements of the City of Hopkins for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009,
are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded based upon the audit,
that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unqualified opinion that the City of Hopkins
financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009, are fairly presented in conformity
with GAAP. The independent auditors’ report is presented as the first component of the financial
section of this report.
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to
accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management’s Discussion and Analysis
(MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in
conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be found in the financial section of this report
immediately following the report of the independent auditors.

Profile of the Government
Hopkins was first settled in 1853 and was incorporated as the Village of West Minneapolis in 1893.
The name was changed in 1928 to Hopkins after one of the early residents. The original territory of
incorporation was three square miles, but successive annexation since 1946 has enlarged this area
by one-third. In 1947, the residents of the area adopted a City Charter with a Council/Manager
form of government. The governing council is responsible, among other things, for passing
ordinances, adopting the budget, appointing committees and hiring the government’s manager and
the government’s attorney. The government’s manager is responsible for carrying out the policies
and ordinances of the government, for overseeing day-to-day operations of the government and for
appointing the heads of the government’s departments.
The report includes all funds of the City, including the City’s Housing and Redevelopment
Authority (HRA). The City provides a full range of services including general government, public
safety, highways and streets, urban redevelopment and housing, culture and recreation, and health
and welfare. In addition to general municipal activities, the City provides water, sewer, storm
sewer and refuse services and operates an ice arena. Low-income rental housing is a function of the
HRA. The Hopkins Fire Relief Association has not met the established criteria for inclusion in the
reporting entity, and accordingly is excluded from this report.
The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Hopkins financial planning and control.
All departments of the City of Hopkins are required to submit requests for appropriation to the
Finance Director by July of each year. The Finance Director uses these requests as the starting
point for developing a proposed budget. The Finance Director then presents this proposed budget
to the Council for review prior to September 15th. The Council is required to hold public hearings
on the proposed budget and to adopt a final budget no later than December 31, the close of the City
of Hopkins fiscal year.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund and department. Department heads may make
transfers of appropriations within a department. Transfers of appropriations between funds require
approval of the City Council. Budget to actual comparisons are provided in this report for each
individual governmental fund for which an annual budget has been adopted. For the General Fund
and the major Special Revenue Funds this comparison is presented on pages 34-40 as part of the
basic financial statements for the governmental funds. For governmental funds, other than the
General fund and major Special Revenue Funds, with annual budgets, this comparison is presented
in the combining and individual fund statements and schedules subsection of this report on pages
90-104.
Factors Affecting Financial Condition
The City of Hopkins, consisting of 2,504 acres, is located in Hennepin County on the westerly
fringe of the Minneapolis urban area. The City, as part of the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan
complex, is readily accessible by the many highways and railways leading into the area. This easy
access prompted steady growth for the City of Hopkins during its formative years. In response to
this growth the City developed goals of working towards a planned community, with its policies
directed toward sound ratios of residential, commercial and industrial components, with the current
tax base approximately 76% single family residential and apartments, and 24% commercial-
4
industrial. The city’s population has stabilized due to the fact that the City is largely developed and
the national trend toward the lowering of persons per household.
The City Council and staff along with an organized group of concerned partners determined what
the Vision and the Mission of the City of Hopkins should be. Participation in this project was very
high and the resulting Vision and Mission are as follows:
Community Vision
Creating a Spirit of Unity – Hopkins will be a community where
People are treated with respect
People participate in building culture, character and common bonds
Business growth throughout the City is supported while maintaining a vibrant City center
People feel safe, support outstanding schools and celebrate cultural heritages
People enjoy quality public services, parks and housing
City of Hopkins Mission
Partnering with the Community to enhance the quality of life,
–Inspire, Educate, Involve, Communicate
Economic Condition and Outlook
Hopkins continues to show strong economic and redevelopment activities within the city. The
valuation of new non-residential construction in 2009 was $36.7 million dollars. This development
activity has been the result of a good development market in the Hopkins area along with successful
planning on the part of the city council and city staff.
Significant projects completed or begun in 2009 include the following:
Activity Valuation
Commercial Additions/Alterations:
Excelsior Crossings Phase II $40,000,000
Excelsior Crossing Phase III $40,000,000
Eisenhower Community Center Remodeling $ 4,300,000
Efforts are being made for continued development and growth for 2010 and beyond. It is
anticipated that approximately $218,000,000 of construction will also take place in the City of
Hopkins during the next several years.
Some anticipated projects for 2010-2013 include the following:
Project Valuation
Atlas Site Redevelopment $62,000,000
Marketplace & Main Apartments/Townhomes $56,000,000
Fifth Avenue Flats $40,000,000
th
8 Avenue Redevelopment $60,000,000

Long-term financial planning
The City of Hopkins has developed a strategic plan for economic development. As a part of this
plan, the City of Hopkins intends to pursue various development and redevelopment efforts
throughout the City. Several projects are anticipated.
In 2010, projects to be constructed include the redevelopment of Block 64 (Fifth Avenue Flats) as a
mixed-use retail/apartment project, phase II of Market Place Lofts apartment and completion of
phase III of the Excelsior Crossing project which will be a major corporate campus comprising
three office buildings each with seven stories and over 3,000 new employees. These developments
will have major impacts on the community. Specialized planning is taking place to ensure that
these developments occur so as to benefit the community and residential neighborhoods.
Major improvements continue to be made along the Hopkins section of Excelsior Boulevard
(County Road 3). The first phase of improvements occurred in 1998 - 2000 between Shady Oak
th
Road and 9 Avenue South. The second phase occurred in 2002 – 2004 between Highway 169 and
th
Blake Road. The third phase occurred in 2007 on the segment between Highway 169 and 8
Avenue. The final phase is the section from Blake Road to Meadowbrook Road – this project has
provisional county funding and is tentatively scheduled for 2012 – 2013.
Significant improvements are in the planning for Shady Oak Road (County Road 61). This project
is a joint effort between Hennepin County and the Cities of Minnetonka and Hopkins. A number of
neighborhood and town meetings have been held to gather input on this project that is projected to
re-align the road and facilitate re-development of the area. The timing of the project is dependent
on Hennepin County which has it placed in their road budget for 2014.
Another project in the planning stages is the 14-mile Southwest Corridor Light Rail Transit (LRT)
line that will go from Eden Prairie to downtown Minneapolis passing through Hopkins and
providing development potential at three transit stations that are planned for Hopkins. In downtown
the Southwest LRT will connect with the Hiawatha and Central LRT lines. Construction of the
light rail line is expected to begin in 2015 and will be funded with the Counties Transit
Improvement Board’s transit sales tax in the metro area (30%), and with Hennepin County Regional
Railroad Authority (10%), Federal (50%), and State (10%) dollars.
Relevant Financial Policies
The State of Minnesota facing their own budget challenges unallotted city Market Value Homestead
Credit (MVHC) aid. This resulted in a budget shortfall of $246,865 for the City of Hopkins. It is
the city’s policy to maintain a balanced budget, therefore budget adjustments in the form of wage
freezes for most employees, elimination of non-essential capital items and small cuts across all
departments were implemented thus achieving a balanced budget for 2009.
Major Initiatives
For 2009, the staff, following specific directives of the council and the manager, has been involved
in a variety of projects throughout the year. These projects reflect the government’s commitment to
ensuring that its citizens are able to live and work in a safe environment and that the needs for
services are met.
6
In 2009, we accomplished our annual street repair and improvements, at a cost of approximately
$1,139,000. The projects included the Parkridge neighborhood street reconstruction, Blake Road
mill and overlay, replacing infrastructure, roadway surface, curb and gutters, parking lot surfaces
and alley reconstruction.
The water department completed the Moline and Well #1 improvements totaling $84,000 and the
storm sewer department started work on the Nine Mile Creek Bank Stabilization incurring project
costs of $144,000. In 2009, the water, sewer and storm sewer departments also completed in
conjunction with the street improvements, infrastructure reconstruction projects totaling $526,000.
Other miscellaneous improvement projects in 2009 included Interlachen Park Playground
equipment and picnic shelter ($94,000), city hall roof replacement ($21,800), Pavilion refrigeration
system ($30,400) and Arts Center wireless installation ($8,300) along with other smaller projects.
Future projects
A systematic citywide sidewalk rehab program was initiated in 1992. Each year one quadrant is
inspected and necessary repairs made. A sidewalk/trail plan was developed and implemented in
2003, which guides future improvements and connections to regional trails.
The City has established a street reconstruction and storm sewer program based on a street
condition survey and storm water management program. The streets found in poor condition and
future problem streets will be systematically included for repairs in the five-year Capital
Improvement Plan.
Certificate of Achievement For
Excellence in Financial Reporting
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a
Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial reporting to the City of Hopkins for its
comprehensive annual finance report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008. In order to be
awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting, a governmental unit
must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive annual financial report.
This report must satisfy both U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal
requirements.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our current
comprehensive annual financial report continues to meet the Certificate of Achievement Program’s
requirements and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another
certificate.

CITY OF HOPKINS, MINNESOTA
MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
(Unaudited)
This section of the City’s comprehensive annual financial report presents a discussion and analysis
of the City’s financial activities during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009. This discussion
and analysis should be read in conjunction with the letter of transmittal in the introductory section of
this report.
Financial Highlights
The assets of the City of Hopkins exceeded liabilities by approximately $61.4 million. Of
this amount, (unrestricted net assets), approximately $4.2 million may be used to meet the
City’s ongoing obligations to citizens and creditors.
The City’s total net assets increased by approximately $503,000.
As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City of Hopkins governmental funds reported
combined ending fund balances of approximately $14.9 million, an increase of
approximately $2.1 million in comparison with the prior year. The increase was due to
conservative spending and refunding bonds on two housing improvement bond issues.
Approximately $4.85 million of fund balance is available for spending at the City’s
discretion (unreserved fund balance).
As of December 31, 2009, unreserved fund balance for the General Fund was approximately
$3.9 million, or 39% of total general fund expenditures.
The City of Hopkins total debt increased by approximately $3.85 million during the current
fiscal year due to bond sales and refundings. Four bond issues totaling $4.695 million will
be refunded on February 2, 2010.
Overview of the Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City of Hopkins basic
financial statements. The City of Hopkins basic financial statements comprise 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.
Government-wide financial statements.
The government-wide financial statements are designed
to provide readers with a broad overview of the City of Hopkins finances, in a manner similar to a
private-sector business.
The statement of net assets presents information on all of the City of Hopkins assets and liabilities,
with the difference between the two reported as net assets. Over time, increases or decreases in net
assets may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City of Hopkins is
improving or deteriorating.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City net assets changed during the
most recent fiscal year. All changes in net assets 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).
15
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City of Hopkins 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 the City of Hopkins
include general, public safety, highways, streets, culture, recreation, urban redevelopment, housing,
health and welfare. The business-type activities of the City of Hopkins include water, sewer, refuse,
storm sewer utilities, an ice arena, and a housing and redevelopment authority.
The government-wide financial statements include the City of Hopkins itself, but also a legally
separate Hopkins Housing and Redevelopment Authority. Although the Hopkins Housing and
Redevelopment Authority is legally separate, it functions for all practical purposes as a department
of the City of Hopkins, and therefore has been included as an integral part of the primary
government.
The government-wide financial statements can be found on pages 28-29 of this report.
Fund financial statements.
A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain
control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City of
Hopkins, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate
compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City of Hopkins can be
divided in two categories: governmental funds and proprietary 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 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 City’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 City’s near-term financing
decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of
revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balance provide a reconciliation to facilitate this
comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City of Hopkins maintains forty 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, Economic
Development, Tax Increment District 1.2 Entertainment District, 1999-A Taxable Housing
Improvement Bonds, 1999-B Taxable Housing Improvement Bonds, 2005-B Taxable Tax Increment
Bonds of 1997 Refunding Bonds, and Municipal State Aid Construction fund, all of which are
considered to be major funds. Data from the other thirty-three funds are combined into a single,
aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major governmental funds is
provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
16
The City of Hopkins adopts an annual appropriated budget for its general fund and all of its special
revenue funds except for the Community Development Block Grant and Section 8 funds. The
budgetary comparison statements have been provided for the General fund, Economic Development
fund and Tax Increment District 1.2 Entertainment District fund and schedules are provided for
other funds to demonstrate compliance with the budget.
The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found on pages 30-40 of this report.
Proprietary funds.
The City of Hopkins maintains two types of proprietary funds. Enterprise
funds are used to report the same functions presented as business-type activities in the government-
wide financial statements. The City of Hopkins uses enterprise funds to account for its water,
sewer, refuse, storm sewer utilities, the pavilion ice arena, and the housing and redevelopment
authority. Internal service funds are an accounting device used to accumulate and allocate costs
internally among the City of Hopkins various functions. The City of Hopkins uses internal service
funds to account for replacement of equipment, insurance deductibles and compensated absences.
Because all of these services predominantly benefit governmental rather than business-type
functions, they have been included within governmental activities in the government-wide financial
statements.
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial
statements, only in more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate
information for the water, sewer, storm sewer and pavilion/ice arena operations, all of which are
considered to be major funds of the City of Hopkins. Data from the other two enterprise funds are
combined into a single, aggregated presentation. Individual fund data for each of these non-major
proprietary funds is provided in the form of combining statements elsewhere in this report. The
internal service funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation in the proprietary fund
financial statements. Individual fund data for the internal service funds is also provided in the form
of combining statements elsewhere in this report.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found on pages 42-46 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 on pages 48-69 of this report.
Other information
In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents
certainrequired supplementary information. Required supplementary information can be found on
page 71 of this report.
The combining statements referred to earlier in connection with non-major governmental funds,
non-major proprietary funds and internal service funds are presented immediately following the
required supplementary information. Combining and individual fund statements and schedules can
be found on pages 74-112 of this report.
17
Government-wide Financial Analysis
As noted earlier, net assets may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government’s financial
position. In the case of the City of Hopkins, assets exceeded liabilities by $61,372,523 at the close
of the most recent fiscal year.
Approximately three quarters (74%) of the City of Hopkins net assets are reflected in its investment
in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery and equipment); less any related debt used to
acquire those assets that are still outstanding. The City of Hopkins uses these capital assets to
provide services to citizens. The net capital assets are not available for future spending. Although
the City of Hopkins 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.

A portion of the City of Hopkins net assets represent resources that are subject to external
restrictions on how they may be used. The remaining balance of unrestricted net assets
($4,234,108) may be used to meet the government’s ongoing obligations to citizens and editors.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Hopkins is able to report positive balances in all
three categories of net assets, both for the government as a whole, as well as for its governmental
and business-type activities. The City’s net assets increased by $502,732 during the current fiscal
year.
Governmental and business-type activities.
Governmental activities increased the City of
Hopkins net assets by $213,917 and business-type activities increased net assets by $288,815. Key
elements of the increases and decreases are as follows:

Governmental activities:
Property taxes increased in 2009 as a result of debt service levies and
increased operating costs. The City also received a number of program grants for specific programs
in addition to state municipal aid for a major street improvement project. Net assets increased
primarily due to conservative spending and bond refunding for two housing improvement bond
issues.

Business-type activities.
Business-type activities had an increase in net assets due to an ongoing
effort to ensure that rates are adequate to fund all expenditures. A utility master plan was developed
in 2007 with scheduled rate increases that are designed to cover operations, debt and capital needs
over the next 15 years. As a result the utility funds are in a stronger financial position than they
were a couple years ago.

Financial Analysis of the City’s Funds
As noted earlier, the City of Hopkins uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance
with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental funds.
The focus of the City of Hopkins governmental funds is to provide
information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information
is useful in assessing the City of Hopkins financing requirements. In particular, unreserved fund
balance may serve as a useful measure of a City’s net resources available for spending at the end of
the fiscal year.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Hopkins governmental funds reported combined
ending fund balances of $14,917,511, an increase of $2,143,936 in comparison with the prior year.
The key factor of the increase is refunding bonds sold for two Housing Improvement Areas along
with conservative spending in the General Fund. Fund balance was also used for development
projects, payment of long-term debt and use of previous years grant revenue for current years
expenditures.
Approximately 32% of fund balance ($4,845,984) constitutes unreserved fund balance, which is
available for spending at the City’s discretion.The remainder of fund balance is reserved to
indicate that it is not available for new spending because it has already been committed 1) to pay
debt service, 2) to pay for tax increment projects and debt, 3) to provide for future rehabilitation
loans, 4) for inventory, 5) for prepaid expenses and 6) to provide for long-term receivables that are
not available or spendable resources.
The general fund is the chief operating fund of the City of Hopkins. At the end of the current fiscal
year, unreserved fund balance of the general fund was $3,930,996. This represents 95.2% of the
general fund’s total fund balance. As a measure of the general fund’s liquidity, it may be useful to
compare both unreserved fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures.
Unreserved fund balance represents approximately 39.7% of total general fund expenditures while
total fund balance represents approximately 41.6% of that same amount.
The fund balance of the City of Hopkins general fund increased by $131,671 during the current
fiscal year. Expenditures exceeded revenues by $87,507 before transfers. This increase was a
result of conservative spending in the wake of the governor’s unallotment of state aids, by leaving
several vacant positions open and reducing public works maintenance projects we were able to
maintain a balanced budget.
The Economic Development fund has a total fund balance of $2,740,752. The fund balance
decreased by $169,177 as fund balance was used for economic development activities.
The Tax Increment District Entertainment District has a total fund balance of ($117,471). The fund
deficit increased by $21,281 as tax increment expenditures exceeded revenues. The city expects to
recover the expenditures as tax increment revenues are projected to increase over the next few years.
The 1999A Taxable Housing Improvement bond fund has a total fund balance of $213,654 all of
which is reserved for the payment of debt service. The fund balance increased by $2,382 as tax
revenues exceeded current debt payment requirements.
22
The 1999B Taxable Housing Improvement bond fund has a total fund balance of $404,085, all of
which is reserved for the payment of debt service. The fund balance increased by $23,644 as tax
revenues exceeded current debt payment requirements.
The 2005B Refunding Taxable Tax Increment Bonds of 1997 bond fund has a total fund balance of
$328,388, all of which is reserved for the payment of debt service. The fund balance increased by
$32,689 as tax revenues exceeded current debt payment requirements.
The Municipal State Aid Construction fund has a total fund balance of $813,817 which is
unreserved. The fund balance increased by $578,499 as a result of state aid revenues received for
specific projects and a reimbursement from another governmental unit for previous years project
costs. Revenues in this fund are derived from the State of Minnesota municipal state aid fund
annual allotments. Funds remain in our account until an eligible project occurs at which time
funding is drawn down from Hopkins’ account.
Proprietary funds.
The City of Hopkins proprietary funds provide the same type of information
found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net assets of the Water fund at the end of the year amounted to $1,127,113. The
unrestricted net assets are used to pay for infrastructure improvements. The increase in net assets
amounted to $72,834 and is due to operating revenues exceeding operating expenses. A utility
master plan was prepared in 2007 to address the funding shortage and prepare a rate structure that
will sustain the water fund in addition to providing for future capital expenditures. The new rate
structure which calls for modest annual increases in water rates was implemented in 2008 and along
with conservative spending we are seeing the results of the study impacting the water funds
financial status.
Unrestricted net assets of the Sewer fund at the end of the year amounted to $423,181. The
unrestricted net assets are used to pay for infrastructure improvements. The decline in net assets
amounted to $192,398 and is due to operating costs exceeding operating revenues. A utility master
plan was prepared in 2007 to address the funding shortage and prepare a rate structure that will
sustain the sewer fund in addition to providing for future capital expenditures. The new rate
structure which calls for modest annual increases in sewer rates was implemented in 2008 however
it will take several years for the rates to “catch up” with the expenditures.
Unrestricted net assets of the Storm Sewer Utility fund at the end of the year amounted to $864,264.
The unrestricted net assets are used to pay for infrastructure improvements. The growth in net
assets amounted to $377,914 and is due to operating revenues exceeding operating costs.
Unrestricted net assets of the Pavilion/Ice Arena fund at the end of the year amounted to ($158,590).
The unrestricted net assets are used to pay for operating costs of the Pavilion. Infrastructure costs
are currently funded by the Capital Improvement Fund due to lack of available funds. Net assets
increased by $384 as the Pavilion works towards eliminating this negative position. User rates have
been adjusted and rentals for the facility are actively being sought to increase revenues during the
non-ice season. Expenditures are closely monitored and energy saving features have been added to
decrease energy costs.

General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The difference between the general fund original budget and the final amended budget resulted in
departmental budget changes but did not increase the total expenditure budget. The reason for the
amendments was a transfer between expenditure categories to match actual expenditures. The
budget changes can be summarized as follows:
Several departments had small budget modifications, however when departments were
combined for reporting purposes the budget changes balanced out and no change was noted.
During the year revenues were under budgetary estimates by $75,615 primarily due to the
unallotment of property state aids, a decrease in grant revenues, and decreased interest income. This
was offset by higher than expected building permit revenues and charges for plan reviews.
Expenditures were under the budget by $147,122 and was due conservative spending, delayed hiring
of open positions, reduced maintenance costs, and energy conservation measures.
The net effect of these budget impacts was a net budgetary increase in fund balance of $131,671
after transfers.
Capital Asset and Debt Administration
Capital assets.
The City of Hopkins investment in capital assets for its governmental and business
type activities as of December 31, 2009, amounts to $65,762,440 (net of accumulated depreciation).

equipment, park facilities, roads, highways, bridges, distribution systems and construction in
progress.

Long-term debt.
At the end of the current fiscal year, the City of Hopkins had total bonded debt
outstanding of $30,505,000. Of this amount, $2,440,000 comprises housing and redevelopment

The City of Hopkins total bonded debt increased by $3,850,000 or 14.4% during the current fiscal
year. The increase is due to refunding bonds issued in December 2009 for $4,920,000 in bonds that
will be called February 2010.
25
General Obligation Bonds are backed by the full faith, credit and taxing power of the City, and are
serviced by General and Tax Increment levies and also by fees assessed against benefited properties.
Revenue Bonds are backed by the full faith, credit and taxing power of the City, and are serviced by
the Water and Storm Sewer Utility Funds current revenues.
City Special Assessment Bonds are backed by the full faith, credit and taxing power of the City, and
repayment monies are generated by the collection of special assessments and general levies.
Housing and Redevelopment Authority bonds are backed by the full faith, credit and taxing power
of the HRA, and repayment monies are generated by annual lease appropriations from the City.
The City is subject to a statutory limit of bonded indebtedness equaling 3.0 percent of estimated
property market value within the City during 2009. At December 31, 2009, the debt limit for the
City is $50,734,311. Of the total debt, $10,804,134 of general obligation and revenue bonds is
applicable to the limit. The legal debt margin is $39,930,177.

maintains an “A1” rating from Moody’s.
Additional information on the City of Hopkins long-term debt can be found in note 9 on pages 61-
64 of this report.
Economic Factors and Next Year’s Budgets and Rates
A number of factors were taken into consideration when preparing the City of Hopkins 2010 budget.
Utility charges were reviewed and as a result of the utility master plan, rates for the water and sewer
will be increased by modest amounts annually at least through 2017. The tax capacity rate increased
for the first time in four years as a result of economic conditions. The State of Minnesota’s budget
challenges resulted in the unallotment of state aids for the second year. The City’s population
would remain constant. As a result of these factors the City prepared a static budget for 2010 with
0% wage increases for most employees, delayed hiring of vacant positions, non-essential capital
items eliminated and small increases across all departments.
During the current fiscal year, unreserved fund balance in the general fund increased to $3,930,996
or 39% of general fund expenditures. The Office of the State Auditor recommends unreserved fund
balances no less than five months of operating expenditures. The City is within that
recommendation for the general fund. The unreserved fund balance is used to pay for the City’s
general fund obligations until it receives its property tax levy revenues in June.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2009
1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNT POLICIES
The City of Hopkins, Minnesota (the City) is a charter City, which was approved December 2, 1947. The City
operates pursuant to applicable Minnesota laws and statutes. The governing body of the City is a Council - Manager
form of government.
The financial statements of the City have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles as applied to governmental units by the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The more
significant accounting policies of the City are described below.
A. REPORTING ENTITY
In accordance with GASB pronouncements, the City’s financial statements include all funds and departments of
the City and its component units, for which the City is considered to be financially accountable. A blended
component unit, although legally separate entity is, in substance, part of the City’s operations and so data from
this unit is combined with data of the primary government. The City’s blended component unit has a March 31
year-end, however when blended with the City it is shown with a December 31 year-end.
Blended Component Unit
Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Hopkins (HRA)
The HRA was created by the City to carry out certain redevelopment projects and low-income rental housing.
Individuals on the City Council represent the governing board of the HRA. The housing activity is supported in
part by federal subsidies. There is an extensive trust agreement between the HRA and HUD regarding the facility.
The HRA is included in the City’s enterprise funds. Separate financials are not prepared.
B. GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The government-wide financial statements (i.e., statement of net assets and the statement of changes in net assets)
report information on all activities of the primary government and its component units. The interfund services
provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation. Governmental activities, which normally are
supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which
rely to a significant extent on fees and charges for support.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is
offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function or
segment. Program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit
from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that
are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and
other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. Major individual
governmental funds and major individual enterprise 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 financial statements. 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
48
City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements have been met. Unbilled utility service receivables are recorded at
year end.
Governmental funds are accounted for using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting. Their revenues are recognized when susceptible to accrual (i.e., when they become
measurable and available). “Measurable” means the amount of the transaction can be determined and “available”
means collectible within the current period or within sixty days thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the
current period.
Major revenues that are susceptible to accrual include property taxes, special assessments, intergovernmental
revenues, charges for services, and investment earnings. Major revenues that are not susceptible to accrual
include fees and miscellaneous revenues; such revenues are recorded only as received because they are not
measurable until collected.
Expenditures are generally recognized under the modified accrual basis of accounting when the related fund
liability is incurred, except for principal and interest on general long-term debt and compensated absences that are
recognized when due and payable.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
Thegeneral fund is the primary operating fund of the City. It is used to account for all financial resources
except those required to be accounted for in another fund.
for development opportunities of the city. Sources of funds are
Theeconomic development fund accounts
derived from the administration of loans and an annual tax levy.
Thetax increment district entertainment district fund accounts for the repayment of debt on the re-
development district tax increment project.
The1999A taxable housing improvement bond fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made
for principal and interest on long-term debt issued to pay for Valley View Home improvements. The owners
of these town homes pay an annual fee, which in turn pays for the bond issue.
The1999B taxable housing improvement bond fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made
for principal and interest on long-term debt issued to pay for Westbrook Patio Home improvements. The
owners of these town homes pay an annual fee, which in turn pays for the bond issue.
The2005B taxable tax increment bonds of 1997 refunding bond fund accounts for resources accumulated and
payments made for principal and interest on long-term debt issued to pay for Westbrook Patio Home
improvements. The owners of these town homes pay an annual fee, which in turn pays for the bond issue.
Themunicipal state aid construction fund accounts for resources accumulated and payments made for street
improvements funded with State of Minnesota funding through the state aid construction program.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Thewater fund accounts for the operations of the City-owned water distribution system. The water bonds of
2000 and 2009A are included as part of this fund since revenues of the water fund are pledged to pay principal
and interest on this bond.
Thesewer fund accounts for the operations of the City-owned sewer lift stations and disposal system. The
sewer bonds of 2009A are included as part of this fund since revenues of the sewer fund are pledged to pay
principal and interest on this bond.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
Thestorm sewer fund accounts for the operations and improvements of the storm water drainage system. The
storm water bond issues of 1999C, 2001, 2003A and 2009A are included as part of this fund since revenues of
the storm sewer fund are pledged to pay principal and interest on these bonds.
ThePavilion/Ice Arena fund accounts for the operations and improvements of the city-owned Pavilion/Ice
Arena.
Additionally, the City reports the following fund types:
Governmental Funds
Special Revenue Funds - Special revenue funds are used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue
sources that are legally restricted to expenditures for specified purposes.
Debt Service Funds - Debt service funds are used to account for the accumulation of resources for, and the
payment of, general long-term debt principal, interest, and related costs.
Capital Project Funds - Capital project funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the
acquisition or construction of major capital facilities and infrastructure, other than those financed by
proprietary funds or special revenue funds.
Proprietary Funds
Enterprise Funds - Enterprise funds are used to account for operations 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.
Internal Service Funds – Internal service funds are used to account for the financing of goods and services
provided by one department to other departments of the City on a cost-reimbursement basis. Internal service
funds are used for equipment replacement, insurance deductions and employee benefits.
Private-sector standards of accounting and financial reporting issued prior to December 1, 1989, generally are
followed in both the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements to the extent that those standards
do not conflict with or contradict guidance of the GASB. Governments also have the option of following
subsequent private-sector guidance for their business-type activities and enterprise funds, subject to this same
limitation. The government has elected not to follow subsequent private-sector guidance.
As a general rule the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial
statements, however interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the process of consolidation.
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or
privileges provided, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including
special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program
revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and
expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a
proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City enterprise funds and
internal service funds are charges to customers for sales and service. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and
internal service funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses and depreciation on capital
assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and
expenses.

City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City’s policy to use restricted
resources first, and then use unrestricted resources as they are needed.
D.CASH AND INVESTMENTS
Cash balances from all funds are combined and invested to the extent available in authorized investments pursuant
to Minnesota Statutes (see note 4). Earnings from such investments are allocated to the respective funds on the
basis of applicable cash balance participation by each fund. Investments in certificates of deposit and commercial
paper with maturity date of less than one year at the date of purchase are reported at cost or amortized cost, which
approximates fair value. Investments other than commercial paper held longer than one year are reported at fair
value, based on quoted market price.
The City accounts for its cash, cash equivalents and investments in an entity-wide cash management pool, which
is used essentially as a demand deposit account. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the proprietary
funds consider all investments to be cash equivalents. Restricted cash and investments are reported separately on
the financial statement.
E. INTERFUND RECEIVABLES/PAYABLES
Activity between funds that is representative of lending/borrowing arrangements and transactions between funds
that are outstanding at the end of the fiscal year are referred to “due to/from other funds” Any residual balances
outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide
financial statements as “internal balances.”
The non-current portion of due to/from other funds is offset by a fund balance reserve account in applicable
governmental funds to indicate that they are not available for appropriation and are not expendable available
financial resources.
F. INVENTORIES AND PREPAID ITEMS
All inventories are valued at cost using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method. Inventories of governmental funds are
recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid
items in both government-wide and fund financial statements.
G. CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets, which include land, buildings, equipment and infrastructure assets (e.g., roads, bridges, curbs and
gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage systems, lighting systems, and similar items), are reported in the applicable
governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements and the proprietary
fund financial statements. The City defines capital assets as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than
$1,000 and an estimated useful life in excess of three years. Such assets are recorded at historical cost. Donated
capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets
lives are not capitalized.
Assets not being depreciated include land and construction in progress. Buildings, equipment, and infrastructure
of the City and the HRA are depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as follows:
Buildings 30 - 40 years
Mains and Lines 40 - 50 years
51
City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
Streets 20 - 25 years
Improvements 10 - 20 years
Vehicles 3 - 30 years
Equipment 3 - 20 years
H. COMPENSATED ABSENCES
The City compensates all employees upon termination for unused vacation or flex leave. Employees hired prior to
August 1, 1998 may opt to have sick leave, at the rate of 8 hours for each calendar month of full-time service,
instead of flex leave.
Employees hired prior to August 1, 1998, that have not opted for flex leave, shall be entitled to severance pay,
after completion of five years of continuous City employment. Severance pay is calculated by multiplying the
total number of continuous years in the City employ and/or accumulated sick leave by the daily wage rate
prevailing at date of severance, at one day per year of such employment, to a maximum of 20 days. Such
severance money shall be paid in case of separation caused by death, eligible retirements, or medically attested
disability preventing an employee from performing the major duties of the position or separation for non-
disciplinary reasons.
Accumulated vacation, flex and vested severance pay is reported as an expense and an accrued liability as the
benefits accrue to employees in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for
these amounts is reported in the governmental funds only if benefits have matured as a result of employee
resignations and retirements. The employee benefits internal service fund reports the governmental funds’
liability for compensated absences on the accrual basis.
I. LONG-TERM OBLIGATIONS
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund financial statements, long-term debt and other
long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities,
or proprietary fund type statement of net assets. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs are
deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds. Bonds payable are reported net of the applicable bond premium
or discount. Bond issuance costs are reported as deferred charges and amortized over the term of the related debt.
In the governmental fund financial statements bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs are
recognized 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.
J. FUND EQUITY
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report reservations of fund balance for amounts that are not
available for appropriation or legally restricted by outside parties for use for a specific purpose. Designations of
fund balance represent tentative management plans that are subject to change.
K. INTERFUND TRANSACTIONS
Inter-fund services provided and used are accounted for as revenues and expenditures. Transactions that
constitute reimbursements to a fund for expenditures initially made from it that are properly applicable to another
fund are recorded as expenditures in the reimbursing fund and as reductions of expenditures in the fund that is
reimbursed.
All other interfund transactions are reported as transfers.

L. PROPERTY TAXES
Property tax levies are set by the City Council in December of each year, and are certified to Hennepin County
(the County) for collection in the following year. In the State of Minnesota, counties act as collection agents for
all property taxes. The County spreads all levies over assessable property. Such taxes become a lien on January 1
and are recorded as receivables by the City at that date.
Real property taxes are payable by taxpayers in two equal installments, on May 15 and October 15. Personal
property taxes are also payable by taxpayers in two equal installments, on February 28 and June 30. The County
provides tax settlements to cities and other local governments three times a year, on or before January 25, July 5
and December 3.
In the governmental fund financial statements property taxes are accrued and recognized as revenue for
collections within 60 days of year-end. Taxes that remain unpaid at the County on December 31 are classified as
delinquent taxes receivable, and are fully offset by deferred revenues because they are not available to finance
current expenditures. No allowance for uncollectible taxes has been provided because such amounts are not
expected to be material.
M. CONDUIT DEBT OBLIGATIONS
From time to time, the City has issued Commercial Development Revenue Notes/Bonds in accordance with the
Minnesota Municipal Industrial Development Act. These obligations are issued to provide financial assistance to
private-sector entities for the acquisition and construction of industrial and commercial facilities deemed to be in
the public interest. The obligations are secured by the property financed and are payable solely from payments
received on the underlying mortgage loans. Upon repayment of the obligations, ownership of the acquired
facilities transfers from the bond holder to the private-sector entity served by the debt issuance. Neither the City,
the State, nor any political subdivision thereof is obligated in any manner for repayment of the obligations.
Accordingly, the bonds are not reported as liabilities in the accompanying financial statements. As of December
31, 2009, there were 10 notes/bond issues outstanding, with an aggregate principal amount payable of
approximately $38 million.
N.USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles U.S. generally accepted
accounting 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
2. RECONCILIATION OF GOVERNMENT-WIDE AND FUND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
A. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND BALANCE
SHEET AND THE GOVERNMENT-WIDE STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS
The governmental fund balance sheet includes a reconciliation between fund balance – total governmental funds
and net assets – governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of net assets. One element
of that reconciliation explains that long-term liabilities, including bonds payable, are not due and payable in the
current period and therefore are not reported in the funds. Details of this difference are as follows:

Accrued interest payable 409,860

Net adjustment to reduce fund balance – total governmental
funds to arrive at net assets – governmental activities $ 24,709,184
B. EXPLANATION OF CERTAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE GOVERNMENTAL FUND STATEMENT
OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCE AND THE GOVERNMENT-
WIDE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES
The governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances includes a
reconciliation between net changes in fund balances – total governmental funds and change in net assets of
governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. One element of that
reconciliation explains, “Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statement of
activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation
expense.” The details of this difference are as follows:
Capital outlay $ 1,399,145
Depreciation expense (1,295,585)
Net adjustment to increase net changes in fund balances –
total governmental funds to arrive at changes in net assets
of governmental activities $ 103,560
Another element of that reconciliation states that “The net effect of various miscellaneous transactions involving
capital assets (i.e., sales, trade-ins, and donations) is to increase net assets.” The details of this $807 difference is
as follows:
In the statement of activities, only the gain on the sale of
capital assets is reported. However, in the governmental
funds, the proceeds from the sale increase financial resources.
Thus, the change in net assets differs from the change in fund
balance by the cost of the capital assets sold. $ (807)
Another element of that reconciliation explains that, “the issuance of long-term debt provides current financial
resources to governmental funds, while the repayment of the principal of long-term debt uses financial resources
of the governmental funds. Neither of these transactions has any effect on the net assets. Also, governmental
funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts and similar items when debt is first issued, whereas
these amounts are deferred and amortized in the statement of net changes.” The details of these differences are as
follows:
Issuance of general obligation bonds $2,865,000
Less discounts (24,400)
Less deferred costs (34,972)
Principal repayments (1,805,000)
OPEB expense 45,719
Amortization of net deferred issuance costs 27,506
Amortization of bond premium and discount 6,965
Prior year interest expense (441,482)
Accrue interest expense for current year 409,860

3 STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTIBILITY
A. BUDGETS AND BUDGETARY ACCOUNTING
Annual budgets are adopted on a basis consistent with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for all
governmental funds except the Section 8 and Hennepin County CDBG special revenue funds, the debt service
funds and the capital projects funds, which are not budgeted. A capital improvement plan is reviewed annually by
the City Council for the capital projects funds and utility funds. However, appropriations for major projects are
not adopted until the actual bid award of the improvement. The appropriations are not reflected in the financial
statements. All annual appropriations lapse at fiscal year end.
The City follows these procedures in establishing the budgetary data reflected in the financial statements and set
forth in Section 7.04 of the City Charter.
1.The City Manager shall, at the first regular council meeting in September, submit to the Council a proposed
budget and an explanatory budget message in a form and manner as prescribed by the City Charter.
2.The Council shall determine the plan and time of the public hearings on the budget to obtain taxpayer
comments.
3.The Council shall adopt the tax levy by resolution no later than a December date, which is annually
established by law for the county auditor to levy taxes. The budget shall set forth the total for each budgeted
fund with such segregation as to objects and purposes of expenditures as the Council deems necessary for
purposes of budget control.
4.The City Manager is authorized to transfer budgeted amounts between departments within any fund; however,
any revisions that alter the total expenditures of any fund must be approved by the City Council and are
limited to the amount revenues exceed the budgets or authorize the transfer of sums from unexpended
balances to other purposes. Budgeted expenditure appropriations lapse at year-end. The level of legal control
is at the fund level.
5.The Council made no supplemental budgetary appropriations throughout the year.
B. EXCESS OF EXPENDITURES OVER APPROPRIATIONS
For the year ended December 31, 2009, actual expenditures exceeded the budgeted amounts in the following
funds:
State Chemical Assessment Team $129,384
Tax Increment 1-2 Entertainment District 313
Real Estate Purchases and Sales 1,350
Communications 12,611
Tax Increment 2-1 R.L. Johnson District 84,825
Tax Increment 1-4 Market Place & Main 19,392
Art Center 764
These over expenditures were funded by greater than anticipated revenues of the Communication and Tax
Increment 2-1 funds, by available fund balances in the Economic Development and Art Center funds, and by
future revenues in the State Chemical Assessment Team fund, Tax Increment 1-2 and 1-4 funds.

Credit risk – Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counter party to an investment will not fulfill its
obligations. Credit risk is measured using credit quality ratings of investments in debt securities as described by
nationally recognized rating agencies such as Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s. According to the City’s
investment policy commercial paper shall be restricted to issues, which mature in 270 days or less with a rating of
A-1 (Moody’s), P-1 (Standard & Poor’s) or F-1 (Fitch) among at least two of the three rating agencies.

Custodial credit risk
Deposits – For deposits, this is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City’s deposits may not be
returned to it. Minnesota Statutes require that all City deposits be protected by insurance, surety bond, or
collateral. The market value of collateral pledged must equal 110% of the deposits not covered by
insurance or bonds. Authorized collateral includes the legal investments described above, as well as
certain first mortgage notes, and certain other state or local government obligations. Minnesota Statutes
57
City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
require that securities pledged as collateral be held in safekeeping by the City treasurer or in a financial
institution other than that furnishing the collateral. At December 31, 2009 the City had no deposits that
were uninsured or uncollateralized. The deposits were insured or collateralized by securities held by the
City’s agent in the City’s name.
Investments – For an investment, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the
City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in the
possession of an outside party. All investments held by the City are insured or registered or are held by
the City or its agent in the City’s name. The City has the ability and intent to hold its investments to
maturity and therefore intends to recover the full carrying value of its investment portfolio upon maturity.
Concentration of credit risk – The City’s investment policy does not specifically address the issue of concentration
of investments by issuer.

Public Facility Lease Revenue Bonds
The Housing and Redevelopment Authority in and for the City of Hopkins, a blended component unit of the City, has
issued public facility lease revenue bonds for the construction of police station improvements. The Housing and
Redevelopment Authority has entered into ground leases with the City for the lease of the facilities to the City. The
leases will remain in effect until all principal and interest on the bonds have been paid. So long as the leases are in
effect, the City will make semiannual lease payments on each February 1 and August 1, in amounts sufficient to pay
all principal and interest on the bonds due on such payment date. The bonds are special obligations of the Housing
and Redevelopment Authority. The bonds do not constitute a general obligation of the Housing and Redevelopment
Authority or the City. It is the intent of the City to levy ad valorem taxes an amount sufficient to make rental
payments required under the leases. In the event the annual appropriation is not made, the bond trustees are entitled
to repossession and the right to re-lease the buildings and land. Public facility lease revenue bonds currently
outstanding are as follows:

10. PENSION PLAN OBLIGATIONS
1. Defined Benefit Pension Plans - Statewide
A. Plan Description
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the City of Hopkins are covered by defined benefit plans
administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the
Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) and the Public Employees Police and Fire Fund (PEPFF), which are
cost sharing, multiple-employer retirement plans. These plans are established and administered in accordance
with Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 353 and 356.
PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan members are covered
by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members must participate in the Coordinated Plan.
All police officers, fire fighters and peace officers that qualify for membership by statute are covered by PEPFF.
PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to survivors upon death
of eligible members. Benefits are established by State Statute, and vest after three years of credited service. The
defined retirement benefits are based on a member's highest average salary for any five successive years of
allowable service, age, and years of credit at termination of service.
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERF's Coordinated and Basic Plan members. The retiring
member receives the higher of a step-rate benefit accrual formula (Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method
2). Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate for a Basic Plan member is 2.2 percent of average salary for each of
the first 10 years of service and 2.7 percent for each remaining year. The annuity accrual rate for a Coordinated
Plan member is 1.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years and 1.7 percent for each remaining year.
Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7 percent of average salary for Basic Plan members and 1.7 percent
for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service. For PEPFF members, the annuity accrual rate is 3.0
percent for each year of service. For all PEPFF members and PERF members hired prior to July1, 1989 whose
annuity is calculated using Method 1, a full annuity is available when age plus years of service equal 90. Normal
retirement age is 55 for PEPFF members and 65 for Basic and Coordinated members hired prior to July 1, 1989.
Normal retirement age is the age for unreduced Social Security benefits capped at 66 for Coordinated members
hired on or after July 1, 1989. A reduced retirement annuity is also available to eligible members seeking early
retirement.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement. A single-life annuity is a lifetime
annuity that ceases upon the death of the retiree--no survivor annuity is payable. There are also various types of
joint and survivor annuity options available which will be payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their
contributions in the fund upon termination of public service in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement
age. Refunds of contributions are available at any time to members who leave public service, but before
retirement benefits begin.
The benefit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current provisions and apply to active
plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are
bound by the provisions in effect at the time they last terminated their public service.
PERA issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary
information for PERF and PEPFF. That report may be obtained on the web at mnpera.org, by writing to PERA,
60 Empire Drive #200, St. Paul, Minnesota, 55103-2088 or by calling (651) 296-7460 or 1-800-652-9026.

B. Funding Policy
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions. These statutes are
established and amended by the state legislature. The City makes annual contributions to the pension plans equal
to the amount required by state statutes. PERF Basic Plan members and Coordinated Plan members were required
to contribute 9.1% and 6.0%, respectively, of their annual covered salary in 2009. PEPFF members were required
to contribute 9.4% of their annual covered salary in 2009. The City of Hopkins is required to contribute the
following percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.78% for Basic Plan PERF members, 6.75% for Coordinated
Plan PERF members and 14.1% for PEPFF members. The City’s contributions to the Public Employees
Retirement Fund for the years ending December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $316,832, $298,627, and
$268,222, respectively. The City’s contributions to the Public Employees Police & Fire Fund for the years ending
December 31, 2009, 2008 and 2007 were $305,185, $277,938, and $222,191, respectively. The City’s
contributions were equal to the contractually required contributions for each year as set by state statute.
2. Hopkins Fire Relief Association (HFRA)
Plan Description
The City contributes to the Hopkins Fire Relief Association (Association); a single employer defined benefit plan.
The Association administers the plan and issues separate financial statements that can be obtained by contacting
the Association.
Volunteer firefighters of the City are members of the Association. The plan provides for permanent and short
term disability benefits, death benefits and pensions with a set value for the annual withdrawal amount. Full
vesting in the plan requires a member to have served for at least 5 years, to have reached the age of 50 years and
to have been a member of the Association for at least 20 years. These benefit provisions and all other
requirements are consistent with enabling statutes.
Funding Policy and Annual Pension Information
The governing board of the Association requests changes in benefit levels and contribution requirements that must
be approved by the City Council. The funding policy provides that contributions from the City and from the State
of Minnesota are in amounts sufficient to accumulate assets to pay benefits when due. The City passes through
state aids allocated to the plan, in accordance with state statutes. The annual pension information is as follows:
2009 Contributions: City $ 32,166
State $ 64,532

The estimated accrued liability of $2,485,423 at December 31, 2008 was calculated using the State of Minnesota
Schedule I form for lump sum pension plans. This results in excess (deficit) net assets available for benefits of
($502,729) as of December 31, 2008. The Hopkins Fire Department is a volunteer organization and therefore does
not have payroll to disclose.
11. OTHER POST EMPLOYMENT BENEFIT PLAN
At December 31, 2008, the City adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 45,
Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Postemployment Benefits Other than Pensions. The City
engaged an actuary to determine the City’s liability for postemployment healthcare benefits other than pensions as
of January 1, 2007.
1.Plan Description
The City provides benefits for retirees as required by Minnesota Statute §471.61 subdivision 2b. Active
employees, who were hired prior to July 1, 1993 and have been with the City for at least ten years and are either
(1) age 60 years or older or (2) eligible for full PERA retirement benefits. Employees retiring by June 30, 2007
will receive full single health and life insurance coverage until age 65; employees retiring between July 1, 2007
and December 31, 2009 will receive $500 per month towards the cost of single health and life insurance until age
65; and employees retiring after December 31, 2009 will receive $15 per month times years of service (maximum
of $500 per month) towards the cost of single health and life insurance until age 65. Currently 21 employees meet
those eligibility requirements. As of December 31, 2009 there were approximately 90 active participants and 21
retired participants receiving benefits from the City’s health plans.
2. Funding Policy
The City funds its OPEB obligation on a pay as you go basis. For fiscal year 2009, the City contributed $186,496
to the plan.
3. Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation
The City’s annual other postemployment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required
contribution (ARC), an amount actuarially determined in accordance with the parameters of GASB Statement 45.
67
City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
The ARC represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover normal cost each
year and amortize any un-funded actuarial liabilities over a period not to exceed thirty years. The following table
shows the components of the City’s annual OPEB cost for the year, the amount actually paid from the plan, and

4. Funded Status and Funding Progress
As of January 1, 2007, the most recent actuarial valuation date, the City’s unfunded actuarial accrued liability
(UAAL) was $2,297,909. The annual payroll for active employees covered by the plan in the actuarial valuation
was $5,621,587 for a ratio of UAAL to covered payroll of 40.88%.
Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts and assumptions about
the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future
employment, mortality, and healthcare cost trends. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the plan
and the annual required contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are
compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The schedule of funding progress,
presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the financial statements, presents
multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time
relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
5. Actuarial Methods and Assumptions
Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan as understood
by the employer and plan members) and include the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and
the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The
actuarial methods and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short-term
volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long-term perspective
of the calculations.
In the January 1, 2007 actuarial valuation, the projected unit credit actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial
assumptions included a 4.5% investment rate of return (net of administrative expenses), which is a blended rate of
the expected long-term investment returns on plan assets and on the employer’s own investments calculated based
68
City of Hopkins, Minnesota
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS, (CONT.)
December 31, 2009
on the funded level of the plan at the valuation date. The initial healthcare trend rate was 9%, reduced by
decrements to an ultimate rate of 5% after nine years. The UAAL is being amortized as a level percentage of
projected payrolls on an open basis. The remaining amortization period at December 31, 2009 was 27 years.
12. REHABILITATION LOANS RECEIVABLE
The City makes rehabilitation loans to residential and commercial entities within the City. Residential loans are
made for 20 year periods at 3% interest. A mortgage against the property improved is required and City staff is
responsible to follow-up any delinquent accounts. Loan repayments are made to Matrix Financial Services, a loan
service bureau, which charges a fee of $5.95 per month per loan. Principal and interest are forwarded to the City
monthly with loan collection and loan status reports. Rehabilitation loan activity is a function of the Economic
Development Fund, the Hennepin County CDBG and the Housing Rehab Funds. Loans become due in full upon
sale of property. Rehabilitation loans receivable amounted to $106,872 at December 31, 2009 and are recorded in
the Economic Development and Hennepin County CDBG nonmajor special revenue funds.
13. CLAIMS AND LITIGATION
The City had the usual and customary types of miscellaneous claims pending at year-end, which are of a minor
nature and usually all covered by insurance carried for that purpose. The City carries a $1,000,000 Public Official
Liability Insurance policy with public entity and employee endorsement.
14. RISK MANAGEMENT
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and
omissions; injuries to employees; and natural disasters. The City participates in a public entity risk pool to mitigate
its exposure to these risks. Workers compensation and property and liability coverage are provided through a pooled
self-insurance plan with other cities. Settled claims have not exceeded insurance coverage in any of the past three
fiscal years and no significant reductions in coverage from the prior year. The City pays an annual premium based
on prior claims history for its workers compensation coverage. The public entity risk pool is responsible for the
payment of all associated claims. The City has a $20,000 deductible per occurrence with a maximum per year out of
pocket of $40,000, for its property and liability coverage. The public entity risk pool is responsible for all losses in
excess of $20,000 per occurrence and all losses occurring after the $40,000 maximum City out of pocket costs.

Notes:
(1) The direct tax rate is applied to the tax capacity of the property which is calculated by applying a
statutory formula to the estimated market value of the property. The tax capacity is then multiplied by
the direct tax rate to determine the city taxes payable on a specific parcel.
(2) Tax exempt property is revalued on a six-year cycle. All other property is revalued on a three year cycle.
