The City will at all times maintain a paying agent and note registrar meeting the qualifications set forth in the

removal of the paying agent or note registrar shall become effective until a successor has been appointed and has
accepted the duties of paying agent or note registrar. Every paying agent or note registrar appointed by the City shall

The Treasurer of the State of Kansas, Topeka, Kansas (the “Note Registrar” and “Note Paying Agent”) has been
designated by the City as paying agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and note registrar with
respect to the registration, transfer and exchange of Notes.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Notes
As long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding, each Note when issued shall be registered in the name of the
Owner thereof on the Note Register. Notes may be transferred and exchanged only on the Note Register as hereinafter
provided. Upon surrender of any Note at the principal office of the Note Registrar, the Note Registrar shall transfer or

same aggregate principal amount as the Note that was presented for transfer or exchange. Notes presented for
transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or authorization for
exchange, in a form and with guarantee of signature satisfactory to the Note Registrar, duly executed by the Owner
thereof or by the Owner’s duly authorized agent.
In all cases in which the privilege of transferring or exchanging Notes is exercised, the Note Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver Notes in accordance with the provisions of the Note Resolution. The City shall pay the fees
and expenses of the Note Registrar for the registration, transfer and exchange of Notes. Any additional costs or fees
that might be incurred in the secondary market, other than fees of the Note Registrar, are the responsibility of the
Owners of the Notes. In the event any Owner fails to provide a correct taxpayer identification number to the Note
Paying Agent, the Note Paying Agent may make a charge against such Owner sufficient to pay any governmental charge
required to be paid as a result of such failure.
The City and the Note Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer or exchange of any Note during
a period beginning at the opening of business on the day after receiving written notice from the City of its intent to
pay Defaulted Interest and ending at the close of business on the date fixed for the payment of Defaulted Interest.
Mutilated, Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Notes
If (a) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Note Registrar or the Note Registrar receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (b) there is delivered to the City and the Note Registrar
such security or indemnity as may be required by each of them, then, in the absence of notice to the City or the Note
Registrar that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the City shall execute and, upon the City’s request, the Note Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Note, a new Note of the same Stated Maturity and of like tenor and principal amount. If any such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about to become due and payable, the City, in its discretion, may pay
such Note instead of issuing a new Note. Upon the issuance of any new Note, the City may require the payment by the
Owner of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and
any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Note Paying Agent) connected therewith.
Nonpresentment of Notes
If any Note is not presented for payment when the principal thereof becomes due at Maturity, if funds
sufficient to pay such Note have been made available to the Note Paying Agent all liability of the City to the Owner
thereof for the payment of such Note shall forthwith cease, determine and be completely discharged, and thereupon
it shall be the duty of the Note Paying Agent to hold such funds, without liability for interest thereon, for the benefit
of the Owner of such Note, who shall thereafter be restricted exclusively to such funds for any claim of whatever
nature on his part under this Note Resolution or on, or with respect to, said Note. If any Note is not presented for
payment within four (4) years following the date when such Note becomes due at Maturity, the Note Paying Agent
shall repay to the City the funds theretofore held by it for payment of such Note, and such Note shall, subject to the
defense of any applicable statute of limitation, thereafter be an unsecured obligation of the City, and the Owner
thereof shall be entitled to look only to the City for payment, and then only to the extent of the amount so repaid to
it by the Note Paying Agent, and the City shall not be liable for any interest thereon and shall not be regarded as a
trustee of such money.
Method and Place of Payment of the Notes
The principal of, or Redemption Price, if any, and interest on the Notes shall be payable in any coin or
currency which, on the respective dates of payment thereof, is legal tender for the payment of public and private
debts. The principal or Redemption Price of each Note and the interest thereon shall be paid at Maturity (the “Note Interest Payment Date”) to the Person in whose name such Note is registered on the Note Register at the Maturity
thereof, upon presentation and surrender of such Note at the principal office of the Note Paying Agent.

The interest payable on each Note on the Note Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Owner of such Note
as shown on the Note Register at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest (a) by check or draft mailed
by the Note Paying Agent to the address of such Owner shown on the Note Register or at such other address as is
furnished to the Note Paying Agent in writing by such Owner; or (b) in the case of an interest payment to Cede & Co.
or any Owner of $500,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes, by electronic transfer to such Owner upon
written notice given to the Note Registrar by such Owner, not less than 15 days prior to the Record Date for such
interest, containing the electronic transfer instructions including the bank, ABA routing number and account number
to which such Owner wishes to have such transfer directed.
“Record Date” means, for the interest payable on the Note Interest Payment Date, the fifteenth day (whether
or not a Business Day) of the calendar month next preceding such Note Interest Payment Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defaulted Interest with respect to any Note shall cease to be payable to
the Owner of such Note on the relevant Record Date and shall be payable to the Owner in whose name such Note is
registered at the close of business on the Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which Special
Record Date shall be fixed as hereinafter specified. The City shall notify the Note Paying Agent in writing of the amount
of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment (which date shall be at
least 30 days after receipt of such notice by the Note Paying Agent) and shall deposit with the Note Paying Agent an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest. Following
receipt of such funds the Note Paying Agent shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment. The Note Paying
Agent shall notify the City of such Special Record Date and shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Owner of a Note
entitled to such notice not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.
SO LONG AS CEDE & CO. REMAINS THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE NOTES, THE NOTE PAYING AGENT
SHALL TRANSMIT PAYMENTS TO THE SECURITIES DEPOSITORY, WHICH SHALL REMIT SUCH PAYMENTS IN
ACCORDANCE WITH ITS NORMAL PROCEDURES. See “THE NOTES – Book-Entry Notes; Securities Depository.”
Payments Due on Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays
In any case where a Note Payment Date is not a Business Day, then payment of principal, Redemption Price
or interest need not be made on such Note Payment Date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with
the same force and effect as if made on such Note Payment Date, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such
Note Payment Date.
Book-Entry Notes; Securities Depository
The Notes shall initially be registered to Cede & Co., the nominee for the Securities Depository, and no
Beneficial Owner will receive certificates representing their respective interests in the Notes, except in the event the
Note Registrar issues Replacement Notes. It is anticipated that during the term of the Notes, the Securities
Depository will make book-entry transfers among its Participants and receive and transmit payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on, the Notes to the Participants until and unless the Note Registrar authenticates and
delivers Replacement Notes to the Beneficial Owners as described in the following paragraphs.
The City may decide, subject to the requirements of the Operational Arrangements of DTC (or a successor
Securities Depository), and the following provisions of this section to discontinue use of the system of book-entry
transfers through DTC (or a successor Securities Depository):
(a) If the City determines (1) that the Securities Depository is unable to properly discharge its
responsibilities, or (2) that the Securities Depository is no longer qualified to act as a securities depository and registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (3) that the
continuation of a book-entry system to the exclusion of any Notes being issued to any Owner other than
5
Cede & Co. is no longer in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners of the Notes; or
(b) if the Note Registrar receives written notice from Participants having interest in not less
than 50% of the Notes Outstanding, as shown on the records of the Securities Depository (and certified to
such effect by the Securities Depository), that the continuation of a book-entry system to the exclusion of
any Notes being issued to any Owner other than Cede & Co. is no longer in the best interests of the
Beneficial Owners of the Notes, then the Note Registrar shall notify the Owners of such determination or
such notice and of the availability of certificates to owners requesting the same, and the Note Registrar
shall register in the name of and authenticate and deliver Replacement Notes to the Beneficial Owners or
their nominees in principal amounts representing the interest of each, making such adjustments as it may
find necessary or appropriate as to accrued interest and previous calls for redemption; provided, that in the
case of a determination under (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this paragraph, the City, with the consent of the Note
Registrar, may select a successor securities depository in accordance with the following paragraph to effect
book-entry transfers.
In such event, all references to the Securities Depository herein shall relate to the period of time when the
Securities Depository has possession of at least one Note. Upon the issuance of Replacement Notes, all references
herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Securities Depository shall be deemed to be imposed
upon and performed by the Note Registrar, to the extent applicable with respect to such Replacement Notes. If the
Securities Depository resigns and the City, the Note Registrar or Owners are unable to locate a qualified successor
of the Securities Depository, then the Note Registrar shall authenticate and cause delivery of Replacement Notes to
Owners, as provided herein. The Note Registrar may rely on information from the Securities Depository and its
Participants as to the names of the Beneficial Owners of the Notes. The cost of printing, registration, authentication,
and delivery of Replacement Notes shall be paid for by the City.
In the event the Securities Depository resigns, is unable to properly discharge its responsibilities, or is no
longer qualified to act as a securities depository and registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the City may appoint a successor Securities Depository provided the Note Registrar
receives written evidence satisfactory to the Note Registrar with respect to the ability of the successor Securities
Depository to discharge its responsibilities. Any such successor Securities Depository shall be a securities depository
which is a registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable
statute or regulation that operates a securities depository upon reasonable and customary terms. The Note
Registrar upon its receipt of a Note or Notes for cancellation shall cause the delivery of the Notes to the successor
Securities Depository in appropriate denominations and form as provided in the Note Resolution.

The Bonds shall consist of fully registered book-entry-only bonds in an Authorized Denomination and shall
be numbered in such manner as the Bond Registrar shall determine. All of the Bonds will be dated as of the Dated
Date, shall become due in the amounts, on the Stated Maturities, and subject to redemption and payment prior to
their Stated Maturities, and shall bear interest at the rates per annum set forth on the inside cover page of this
Official Statement. The Bonds shall bear interest (computed on the basis of twelve 30-day months) from the later
of the Dated Date or the most recent Bond Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, on the Bond Interest Payment Dates in the manner hereinafter set forth.
Redemption Provisions
Optional Redemption. At the option of the City, Bonds or portions thereof maturing on October 1, 2029 and
thereafter may be called for redemption and payment prior to their Stated Maturity on October 1, 2028, and at any
time thereafter as a whole or in part (selection of maturities and the amount of Bonds of each maturity to be redeemed
to be determined by the City in such equitable manner as it may determine), at the Redemption Price of 100%
(expressed as a percentage of the principal amount), plus accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date.
Selection of Bonds to be Redeemed. Bonds shall be redeemed only in an Authorized Denomination. When
less than all of the Bonds are to be redeemed and paid prior to their Stated Maturity, such Bonds shall be redeemed in
such manner as the City shall determine, Bonds of less than a full Stated Maturity shall be selected by the Bond Registrar
in minimum Authorized Denomination in such equitable manner as the Bond Registrar may determine. In the case of
a partial redemption of Bonds by lot when Bonds of denominations greater than a minimum Authorized Denomination
are then Outstanding, then for all purposes in connection with such redemption each minimum Authorized
Denomination of face value shall be treated as though it were a separate Bond of a minimum Authorized Denomination.
If it is determined that one or more, but not all, of the minimum Authorized Denomination value represented by any
Bond is selected for redemption, then upon notice of intention to redeem such minimum Authorized Denomination,
the Owner or the Owner’s duly authorized agent shall forthwith present and surrender such Bond to the Bond Registrar:
(1) for payment of the Redemption Price and interest to the Redemption Date of such minimum Authorized
Denomination value called for redemption, and (2) for exchange, without charge to the Owner thereof, for a new Bond
or Bonds of the aggregate principal amount of the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of such Bond. If the
Owner of any such Bond fails to present such Bond to the Bond Paying Agent for payment and exchange as aforesaid,
such Bond shall, nevertheless, become due and payable on the redemption date to the extent of the minimum
Authorized Denomination value called for redemption (and to that extent only).
Notice and Effect of Call for Redemption. Unless waived by any Owner of Bonds to be redeemed, if the City shall call any Bonds for redemption and payment prior to the Stated Maturity thereof, the City shall give written
notice of its intention to call and pay said Bonds to the Bond Registrar. In addition, the City shall cause the Bond
7
Registrar to give written notice of redemption to the Owners of said Bonds. Each of said written notices shall be
deposited in the United States first class mail not less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date.
All official notices of redemption shall be dated and shall contain the following information: (a) the
Redemption Date; (b) the Redemption Price; (c) if less than all Outstanding Bonds are to be redeemed, the identification
(and, in the case of partial redemption of any Bonds, the respective principal amounts) of the Bonds to be redeemed;
(d) a statement that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Bond
or portion thereof called for redemption and that interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and after the Redemption
Date; and (e) the place where such Bonds are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, which shall be
the principal office of the Bond Paying Agent. The failure of any Owner to receive notice given as heretofore provided
or an immaterial defect therein shall not invalidate any redemption.
Prior to any Redemption Date, the City shall deposit with the Bond Paying Agent an amount of money
sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of all the Bonds or portions of Bonds that are to be redeemed on such
Redemption Date. Official notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Bonds or portions of Bonds to be
redeemed shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date, at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from
and after the Redemption Date (unless the City defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price) such Bonds or portion
of Bonds shall cease to bear interest.
For so long as the Securities Depository is effecting book-entry transfers of the Bonds, the Bond Registrar shall
provide the notices specified to the Securities Depository. It is expected that the Securities Depository shall, in turn,
notify its Participants and that the Participants, in turn, will notify or cause to be notified the Beneficial Owners. Any
failure on the part of the Securities Depository or a Participant, or failure on the part of a nominee of a Beneficial Owner
of a Bond (having been mailed notice from the Bond Registrar, the Securities Depository, a Participant or otherwise) to
notify the Beneficial Owner of the Bond so affected, shall not affect the validity of the redemption of such Bond.
In addition to the foregoing notice, the City shall provide such notices of redemption as are required by the
Disclosure Undertaking. The Bond Paying Agent is also directed to comply with any mandatory or voluntary standards
then in effect for processing redemptions of municipal securities established by the State or the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Failure to comply with such standards shall not affect or invalidate the redemption of any Bond.
Designation of Bond Paying Agent and Bond Registrar
The City will at all times maintain a paying agent and bond registrar meeting the qualifications set forth in the
Bond Resolution. The City reserves the right to appoint a successor paying agent or bond registrar. No resignation or
removal of the paying agent or bond registrar shall become effective until a successor has been appointed and has
accepted the duties of paying agent or bond registrar. Every paying agent or bond registrar appointed by the City shall
at all times meet the requirements of Kansas law.
The Treasurer of the State of Kansas, Topeka, Kansas (the “Bond Registrar” and “Bond Paying Agent”) has
been designated by the City as paying agent for the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds and bond registrar
with respect to the registration, transfer and exchange of Bonds.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange of Bonds
As long as any of the Bonds remain Outstanding, each Bond when issued shall be registered in the name of
the Owner thereof on the Bond Register. Bonds may be transferred and exchanged only on the Bond Register as
hereinafter provided. Upon surrender of any Bond at the principal office of the Bond Registrar, the Bond Registrar shall
transfer or exchange such Bond for a new Bond or Bonds in any authorized denomination of the same Stated Maturity
and in the same aggregate principal amount as the Bond that was presented for transfer or exchange. Bonds presented
for transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer or authorization for
exchange, in a form and with guarantee of signature satisfactory to the Bond Registrar, duly executed by the Owner thereof or by the Owner’s duly authorized agent.
8
In all cases in which the privilege of transferring or exchanging Bonds is exercised, the Bond Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver Bonds in accordance with the provisions of the Bond Resolution. The City shall pay the fees
and expenses of the Bond Registrar for the registration, transfer and exchange of Bonds. Any additional costs or fees
that might be incurred in the secondary market, other than fees of the Bond Registrar, are the responsibility of the
Owners of the Bonds. In the event any Owner fails to provide a correct taxpayer identification number to the Bond
Paying Agent, the Bond Paying Agent may make a charge against such Owner sufficient to pay any governmental charge
required to be paid as a result of such failure.
The City and the Bond Registrar shall not be required (a) to register the transfer or exchange of any Bond that
has been called for redemption after notice of such redemption has been mailed by the Bond Paying Agent and during
the period of 15 days next preceding the date of mailing of such notice of redemption; or (b) to register the transfer or
exchange of any Bond during a period beginning at the opening of business on the day after receiving written notice
from the City of its intent to pay Defaulted Interest and ending at the close of business on the date fixed for the payment
of Defaulted Interest.
Method and Place of Payment of the Bonds
The principal of, or Redemption Price, and interest on the Bonds shall be payable in any coin or currency which,
on the respective dates of payment thereof, is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. The principal
or Redemption Price of each Bond shall be paid at Maturity to the Person in whose name such Bond is registered on
the Bond Register at the Maturity thereof, upon presentation and surrender of such Bond at the principal office of the
Bond Paying Agent.
The interest payable on each Bond on any Bond Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Owner of such Bond as shown on the Bond Register at the close of business on the Record Date for such interest (a) by check or draft
mailed by the Bond Paying Agent to the address of such Owner shown on the Bond Register or at such other address
as is furnished to the Bond Paying Agent in writing by such Owner; or (b) in the case of an interest payment to Cede &
Co. or any Owner of $500,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Bonds, by electronic transfer to such Owner
upon written notice given to the Bond Registrar by such Owner, not less than 15 days prior to the Record Date for such
interest, containing the electronic transfer instructions including the bank, ABA routing number and account number
to which such Owner wishes to have such transfer directed.
“Record Date” means, for the interest payable on any Bond Interest Payment Date, the fifteenth day (whether
or not a Business Day) of the calendar month next preceding such Bond Interest Payment Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defaulted Interest with respect to any Bond shall cease to be payable to
the Owner of such Bond on the relevant Record Date and shall be payable to the Owner in whose name such Bond is
registered at the close of business on the Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which Special
Record Date shall be fixed as hereinafter specified. The City shall notify the Bond Paying Agent in writing of the amount
of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Bond and the date of the proposed payment (which date shall be at
least 30 days after receipt of such notice by the Bond Paying Agent) and shall deposit with the Bond Paying Agent an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest. Following
receipt of such funds the Bond Paying Agent shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest
which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment. The Bond Paying
Agent shall notify the City of such Special Record Date and shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted
Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to each Owner of a Bond
entitled to such notice not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date.
SO LONG AS CEDE & CO., REMAINS THE REGISTERED OWNER OF THE BONDS, THE BOND PAYING AGENT
SHALL TRANSMIT PAYMENTS TO THE SECURITIES DEPOSITORY, WHICH SHALL REMIT SUCH PAYMENTS IN
ACCORDANCE WITH ITS NORMAL PROCEDURES. See “THE BONDS – Book-Entry Bonds; Securities Depository.”
9
Payments Due on Saturdays, Sundays and Holidays
In any case where a Bond Payment Date is not a Business Day, then payment of principal, Redemption Price or
interest need not be made on such Bond Payment Date but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with
the same force and effect as if made on such Bond Payment Date, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such
Bond Payment Date.
Book-Entry Bonds; Securities Depository
The Bonds shall initially be registered to Cede & Co., the nominee for the Securities Depository, and no
Beneficial Owner will receive certificates representing their respective interests in the Bonds, except in the event
the Bond Registrar issues Replacement Bonds. It is anticipated that during the term of the Bonds, the Securities
Depository will make book-entry transfers among its Participants and receive and transmit payment of principal of,
premium, if any, and interest on, the Bonds to the Participants until and unless the Bond Registrar authenticates and
delivers Replacement Bonds to the Beneficial Owners as described in the following paragraphs.
The City may decide, subject to the requirements of the Operational Arrangements of DTC (or a successor
Securities Depository), and the following provisions of this section to discontinue use of the system of book-entry
transfers through DTC (or a successor Securities Depository):
(a) If the City determines (1) that the Securities Depository is unable to properly discharge its
responsibilities, or (2) that the Securities Depository is no longer qualified to act as a securities depository
and registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or (3) that the
continuation of a book-entry system to the exclusion of any Bonds being issued to any Owner other than Cede & Co. is no longer in the best interests of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds; or
(b) if the Bond Registrar receives written notice from Participants having interest in not less
than 50% of the Bonds Outstanding, as shown on the records of the Securities Depository (and certified to
such effect by the Securities Depository), that the continuation of a book-entry system to the exclusion of
any Bonds being issued to any Owner other than Cede & Co. is no longer in the best interests of the
Beneficial Owners of the Bonds, then the Bond Registrar shall notify the Owners of such determination or
such notice and of the availability of certificates to owners requesting the same, and the Bond Registrar
shall register in the name of and authenticate and deliver Replacement Bonds to the Beneficial Owners or
their nominees in principal amounts representing the interest of each, making such adjustments as it may
find necessary or appropriate as to accrued interest and previous calls for redemption; provided, that in the
case of a determination under (a)(1) or (a)(2) of this paragraph, the City, with the consent of the Bond
Registrar, may select a successor securities depository in accordance with the following paragraph to effect
book-entry transfers.
In such event, all references to the Securities Depository herein shall relate to the period of time when the
Securities Depository has possession of at least one Bond. Upon the issuance of Replacement Bonds, all references
herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Securities Depository shall be deemed to be imposed
upon and performed by the Bond Registrar, to the extent applicable with respect to such Replacement Bonds. If the
Securities Depository resigns and the City, the Bond Registrar or Owners are unable to locate a qualified successor
of the Securities Depository, then the Bond Registrar shall authenticate and cause delivery of Replacement Bonds to
Owners, as provided herein. The Bond Registrar may rely on information from the Securities Depository and its
Participants as to the names of the Beneficial Owners of the Bonds. The cost of printing, registration, authentication,
and delivery of Replacement Bonds shall be paid for by the City.
In the event the Securities Depository resigns, is unable to properly discharge its responsibilities, or is no
longer qualified to act as a securities depository and registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended, the City may appoint a successor Securities Depository provided the Bond Registrar
receives written evidence satisfactory to the Bond Registrar with respect to the ability of the successor Securities
Depository to discharge its responsibilities. Any such successor Securities Depository shall be a securities depository
which is a registered clearing agency under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable
10
statute or regulation that operates a securities depository upon reasonable and customary terms. The Bond
Registrar upon its receipt of a Bond or Bonds for cancellation shall cause the delivery of the Bonds to the successor
Securities Depository in appropriate denominations and form as provided in the Bond Resolution.
THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY
1. The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), New York, New York, will act as securities depository for
the Securities. The Securities will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC’s
partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-
registered bond or note certificate will be issued for each scheduled maturity of the Securities, and will be deposited
with DTC.
2. DTC, the world’s largest depository, is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New
York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the
Federal Reserve System, a “clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code,
and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.6 million issues of U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and
municipal debt issues, and money market instruments from over 100 countries that DTC’s participants (“Direct
Participants”) deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales
and other securities transactions in deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and
pledges between Direct Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities
certificates. Direct Participants include U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies,
clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust
& Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation
and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users
of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S.
securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a
custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). DTC has a
Standard & Poor’s rating of “AA+”. The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcc.com.
3. Purchases of Securities under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,
which will receive a credit for the Securities on DTC’s records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of
each Security (“Beneficial Owner”) is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants’ records.
Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are,
however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings, from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered
into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Securities are to be accomplished by entries made on
the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not
receive certificates representing their ownership interests in Securities, except in the event that use of the book-
entry system for the Securities is discontinued.
4. To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Securities deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are
registered in the name of DTC’s partnership nominee, Cede & Co., or such other name as may be requested by an
authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Securities with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede &
Co. or such other DTC nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the
actual Beneficial Owners of the Securities; DTC’s records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose
accounts such Securities are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect
Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
5. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct
Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will
be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect
from time to time.
11
6. Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Securities within an issue are being
redeemed, DTC’s practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue
to be redeemed.
7. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to the
Securities unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC’s MMI Procedures. Under its usual
procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the Issuer as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy
assigns Cede & Co.’s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts Securities are
credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy).
8. Redemption proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments on the Securities will be made to Cede
& Co., or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC’s practice is to
credit Direct Participants’ accounts upon DTC’s receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Issuer
or Paying Agent, on the payment date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC’s records.
Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices,
as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in “street name,” and
will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC nor its nominee, the Paying Agent, or the Issuer, subject
to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of redemption proceeds,
distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized
representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Issuer or Paying Agent, disbursement of such payments to Direct
Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be
the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants.
9. A Beneficial Owner shall give notice to elect to have its Securities purchased or tendered, through
its Participant, to the Paying Agent, and shall effect delivery of such Securities by causing the Direct Participant to
transfer the Participant’s interest in the Securities, on DTC’s records, to the Paying Agent. The requirement for
physical delivery of the Securities in connection with an optional tender or a mandatory purchase will be deemed
satisfied when the ownership rights in the Securities are transferred by Direct Participants on DTC’s records and
followed by a book-entry credit of tendered Securities to the Paying Agent’s DTC account.
10. DTC may discontinue providing its services as depository with respect to the Securities at any time
by giving reasonable notice to the Issuer or Paying Agent. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor
securities depository is not obtained, certificates are required to be printed and delivered.
11. The Issuer may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC
(or a successor securities depository). In that event, certificates will be printed and delivered to DTC.
12. The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC’s book-entry system has been obtained
from sources that the Issuer believes to be reliable, but the Issuer takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof.

RISK FACTORS AND INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS
A PROSPECTIVE PURCHASER OF THE SECURITIES DESCRIBED HEREIN SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THERE ARE CERTAIN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE SECURITIES WHICH MUST BE RECOGNIZED. THE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS
REGARDING CERTAIN RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OFFERING SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED AS A COMPLETE
DESCRIPTION OF ALL RISKS TO BE CONSIDERED IN THE DECISION TO PURCHASE THE SECURITIES. PROSPECTIVE
PURCHASERS OF THE SECURITIES SHOULD ANALYZE CAREFULLY THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS OFFICIAL
STATEMENT AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IN THE FORM OF THE COMPLETE DOCUMENTS SUMMARIZED HEREIN, COPIES OF WHICH ARE AVAILABLE AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE CITY OR THE UNDERWRITERS.
Legal Matters
Various state and federal laws, regulations and constitutional provisions apply to the obligations created by
the Securities. There is no assurance that there will not be any change in, interpretation of, or addition to such
applicable laws, provisions and regulations which would have a material effect, either directly or indirectly, on the
City or the taxing authority of the City.
Limitations on Remedies Available to Owners of Securities
The enforceability of the rights and remedies of the owners of Securities, and the obligations incurred by
the City in issuing the Securities, are subject to the following: the federal Bankruptcy Code and applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights generally, now or hereafter in effect; usual equity principles which may limit the specific
enforcement under state law of certain remedies; the exercise by the United States of America of the powers
delegated to it by the United States Constitution; and the reasonable and necessary exercise, in certain unusual
situations, of the police power inherent in the State of Kansas and its governmental subdivisions in the interest of
serving a legitimate and significant public purpose. Bankruptcy proceedings, or the exercise of powers by the federal
or state government, if initiated, could subject the owners of the Securities to judicial discretion and interpretation
of their rights in bankruptcy and otherwise, and consequently may involve risks of delay, limitation or modification
of their rights.
14
Debt Service Source; Issuer’s Tax Revenues
The Securities are general obligations of the Issuer payable as to both principal and interest, if necessary,
from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible
property, real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The Legislature may from time to time adopt
changes in the property tax system or method of imposing and collecting property and/or sales taxes within the
State. The effects of such legislative changes could affect the Issuer’s property tax and sales tax collections, and the
impact could be material. Other future events, such as the loss of a major taxpayer, reductions in assessed value,
increases in property tax rates of overlapping taxing units, or a decrease in sales tax revenues could increase effective
property tax rates and the resulting increase could be material. Taxpayers may also challenge the value of property
assigned by the county appraiser. If a taxpayer valuation challenge is successful, the liability of the Issuer to refund
property taxes previously paid under protest may have a material adverse effect on the Issuer’s financial situation.
See “APPENDIX A – FINANCIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CITY - Appraisal and Assessment Procedures.”
Kansas Public Employees Retirement System
As described in “APPENDIX A – GENERAL INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CITY – Pension and Employee
Retirement Plans,” the Issuer participates in the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (“KPERS”), as an
instrumentality of the State to provide retirement and related benefits to public employees in Kansas. KPERS
administers three statewide defined benefit retirement plans for public employees which are separate and distinct
with different membership groups, actuarial assumptions, experience, contribution rates and benefit options. The
Issuer participates in the Police and Firemen’s Retirement System (“KP&F”) and the Public Employees Retirement
System – Local Group (the “Plan”). Under existing law, employees make contributions and the Issuer makes all
employer contributions to the Plan; neither the employees nor the Issuer are directly responsible for any unfunded accrued actuarial liability (“UAAL”). However, the Plan contribution rates may be adjusted by legislative action over
time to address any UAAL. According to KPERS’ Valuation Report, the Local Group had an UAAL of approximately
$1.502 billion in calendar year 2019 and KP&F had an UAAL of approximately $949 million.
Taxation of Interest on the Securities
Opinions of Bond Counsel will be obtained to the effect that interest earned on the Securities is excludable
from gross income for federal income tax purposes under current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended (the “Code”), and applicable rulings and regulations under the Code; however, an application for a ruling
has not been made and an opinion of counsel is not binding upon the Internal Revenue Service. There can be no
assurance that the present provisions of the Code, or the rules and regulations thereunder, will not be adversely
amended or modified, thereby rendering the interest earned on the Securities includable in gross income for federal
income tax purposes.
The City has covenanted in the Note Resolution and the Bond Resolution and in other documents and
certificates to be delivered in connection with the issuance of the Securities to comply with the provisions of the
Code, including those which require the City to take or omit to take certain actions after the issuance of the
Securities. Because the existence and continuation of the excludability of the interest on the Securities depends
upon events occurring after the date of issuance of the Securities, the opinion of Bond Counsel described under “TAX
MATTERS” assumes the compliance by the City with the provisions of the Code described above and the regulations
relating thereto. No opinion is expressed by Bond Counsel with respect to the excludability of the interest on the
Securities in the event of noncompliance with such provisions. The failure of the City to comply with the provisions
described above may cause the interest on the Securities to become includable in gross income as of the date of
issuance.
15
Premium on the Securities
The initial offering prices of certain maturities of the Securities that are subject to optional redemption may
be in excess of the respective principal amounts thereof. Any person who purchases such a Security in excess of its
principal amount, whether during the initial offering or in a secondary market transaction, should consider that the
Securities are subject to redemption at par under the various circumstances described under “THE NOTES-
Redemption Provisions” and “THE BONDS – Redemption Provisions.”
No Additional Interest or Mandatory Redemption upon Event of Taxability
Neither the Bond Resolution nor the Note Resolution provide for the payment of additional interest or
penalty on the Securities or the mandatory redemption thereof if the interest thereon becomes includable in gross
income for federal income tax purposes. Likewise, neither the Bond Resolution nor the Note Resolution provide for
the payment of any additional interest or penalty on the Securities if the interest thereon becomes subject to income
taxation by the State of Kansas.
Suitability of Investment
The tax exempt feature of the Securities is more valuable to high tax bracket investors than to investors
who are in low tax brackets, and so the value of the interest compensation to any particular investor will vary with
individual tax rates. Each prospective investor should carefully examine this Official Statement, including the
Appendices hereto, and its own financial condition to make a judgment as to its ability to bear the economic risk of
such an investment, and whether or not the Securities are an appropriate investment.
Market for the Securities
Ratings. The Securities have been assigned the financial ratings set forth in the section hereof titled
RATINGS. There is no assurance that a particular rating will remain in effect for any given period of time or that it
will not be revised, either downward or upward, or withdrawn entirely, if in the judgment of the agency originally
establishing such rating, circumstances so warrant. Any downward revision or withdrawal of any rating may have
an adverse affect on the market price of the Securities.
Secondary Market. There is no assurance that a secondary market will develop for the purchase and sale
of the Securities. Prices of securities traded in the secondary market, though, are subject to adjustment upward and
downward in response to changes in the credit markets. From time to time it may be necessary to suspend
indefinitely secondary market trading in the Securities as a result of financial condition or market position of broker-
dealers, prevailing market conditions, lack of adequate current financial information about the City, or a material
adverse change in the financial condition of the City, whether or not the Securities are in default as to principal and
interest payments, and other factors which may give rise to uncertainty concerning prudent secondary market
practices.
Recent Legislative Proposals
Congress and the President periodically work on various proposals to increase income taxes and to reduce
tax deductions and expenditures. These discussions have made it clear that the tax exemption of municipal bonds
is considered a tax expenditure and as such there is no guaranty that the tax exempt status on municipal bonds will
remain unchanged as a result of these discussions. If a legislative change is enacted which results in all, or a portion,
of the interest on the Securities being subjected to Federal income taxes, such legislation or proposals could affect
the value or marketability of the Securities. Prospective purchasers of the Securities should consult their own tax
advisers regarding the impact of any change in law on the Securities.

COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization proclaimed the Coronavirus (COVID-19) to be a
pandemic. In an effort to lessen the risk of transmission of COVID-19, the United States government, state and local
governments and private industries have taken measures to limit social interactions in an effort to limit the spread
of COVID-19, affecting business activities and impacting global, state and local commerce and financial markets.
State and local governmental authorities continue efforts to contain and limit the spread of COVID-19.
As of the date hereof, the Issuer has not experienced material adverse changes relative to its adopted
budget with regard to expenditures or receipt of revenues. However, future revenue collections, including property
tax collections that are essential to repayment of the Bonds, may deviate from historical or anticipated levels.
The emergence of COVID-19 and the spread thereof continues to be an emerging and evolving issue. The
Issuer is not able to predict and makes no representations as to the long term economic impact of the COVID-19
pandemic on the Issuer.
LEGAL MATTERS
All matters incident to the authorization and issuance of the Securities by the City are subject to the approval
of Gilmore & Bell, P.C., Kansas City, Missouri, Bond Counsel to the City. The factual and financial information
appearing herein has been supplied or reviewed by certain officials of the City and its certified public accountants,
as referred to herein. Bond Counsel has participated in the preparation of the matters appearing in the sections of
this Official Statement captioned THE NOTES, THE BONDS, LEGAL MATTERS, TAX MATTERS, and APPENDIX B – FORM
OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING.
TAX MATTERS
General
The following is a summary of the material federal and State of Kansas income tax consequences of holding
and disposing of the Securities. This summary is based upon laws, regulations, rulings and judicial decisions now in
effect, all of which are subject to change (possibly on a retroactive basis). This summary does not discuss all aspects of
federal income taxation that may be relevant to investors in light of their personal investment circumstances or
describe the tax consequences to certain types of holders subject to special treatment under the federal income tax
laws (for example, dealers in securities or other persons who do not hold the Securities as a capital asset, tax-exempt
organizations, individual retirement accounts and other tax deferred accounts, and foreign taxpayers), and, except for
the income tax laws of the State of Kansas, does not discuss the consequences to an owner under state, local or foreign
tax laws. The summary does not deal with the tax treatment of persons who purchase the Securities in the secondary
market. Prospective investors are advised to consult their own tax advisors regarding federal, state, local and other tax
considerations of holding and disposing of the Securities.
Opinion of Bond Counsel
In the opinion of Bond Counsel, under the law existing as of the issue date of the Securities:
Federal Tax Exemption: The interest on the Securities (including any original issue discount properly allocable
to an owner thereof) is excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
Alternative Minimum Tax. Interest on the Securities is not an item of tax preference for purposes of
computing the federal alternative minimum tax.
Bank Qualification – The Bonds. The Bonds are “qualified tax-exempt obligations” within the meaning of
Code § 265(b)(3).
17
Bank Qualification – The Notes. The Notes have not been designated as “qualified tax-exempt obligations”
for purposes of Code §265(b).
Kansas Tax Exemption. The interest on the Securities is exempt from income taxation by the State of
Kansas.
No Other Opinions. Bond Counsel’s opinions are provided as of the date of the original issue of the
Securities, subject to the condition that the City comply with all requirements of the Code that must be satisfied
subsequent to the issuance of the Securities in order that interest thereon be, or continue to be, excludable from
gross income for federal income tax purposes. The City has covenanted to comply with all such requirements.
Failure to comply with certain of such requirements may cause the inclusion of interest on the Securities in gross
income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Securities. Bond Counsel is
expressing no opinion regarding other federal, state or local tax consequences arising with respect to the Securities.
Other Tax Consequences
Original Issue Discount. For federal income tax purposes, original issue discount (“OID”) is the excess of
the stated redemption price at maturity of a security over its issue price. The issue price of a security is generally
the first price at which a substantial amount of the security of that maturity has been sold to the public.
Under Code § 1288, OID on tax-exempt obligations accrues on a compound basis. The amount of OID that
accrues to an owner of a Security during any accrual period generally equals: (a) the issue price of such Security plus
the amount of OID accrued in all prior accrual periods; multiplied by (b) the yield to maturity on such Security (determined on the basis of compounding at the close of each accrual period and properly adjusted for the length
of the accrual period); minus (c) any interest payable on such Security during such accrual period. The amount of
OID so accrued in a particular accrual period will be considered to be received ratably on each day of the accrual
period, will be excludable from gross income for federal income tax purposes, and will increase the owner’s tax basis
in such Security. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning the calculation and accrual
of OID.
For each Security, the stated redemption price at maturity includes all payments on the Security, except
interest payable at least annually over the term of the Security (“qualified stated interest”). Since the May 1, 2022
interest payment on the Notes will be paid more than one year after the Notes are issued, none of the interest
payments on the Notes constitute qualified stated interest, and the stated redemption price of the Notes includes
all payments on the Notes.
Original Issue Premium. For federal income tax purposes, premium is the excess of the issue price of a
Security over its stated redemption price at maturity. The issue price of a Security is generally the first price at which
a substantial amount of the Securities of that maturity have been sold to the public. Under Code §171, premium on
tax-exempt obligations amortizes over the term of the Security using constant yield principles, based on the
purchaser’s yield to maturity. As premium is amortized, the owner’s basis in the Security and the amount of tax-
exempt interest received will be reduced by the amount of amortizable premium properly allocable to the owner,
which will result in an increase in the gain (or decrease in the loss) to be recognized for federal income tax purposes
on sale or disposition of the Security prior to its maturity. Even though the owner’s basis is reduced, no federal
income tax deduction is allowed. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning the
calculation and accrual of premium.
Sale, Exchange or Retirement of Securities. Upon the sale, exchange or retirement (including redemption)
of a Security, an owner of the Security generally will recognize gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference
between the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received on the sale, exchange or retirement
of the Security (other than in respect of accrued and unpaid interest) and such owner’s adjusted tax basis in the
Security. To the extent the Securities are held as a capital asset, such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss and will
be long-term capital gain or loss if the Security has been held for more than 12 months at the time of sale, exchange
or retirement.
18
Reporting Requirements. In general, information reporting requirements will apply to certain payments of
principal, interest and premium paid on Securities, and to the proceeds paid on the sale of Securities, other than
certain exempt recipients (such as corporations and foreign entities). A backup withholding tax will apply to such
payments if the owner fails to provide a taxpayer identification number or certification of foreign or other exempt
status or fails to report in full dividend and interest income. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment
to an owner will be allowed as a credit against the owner’s federal income tax liability.
Collateral Federal Income Tax Consequences. Prospective purchasers of the Securities should be aware
that ownership of the Securities may result in collateral federal income tax consequences to certain taxpayers,
including, without limitation, financial institutions, property and casualty insurance companies, individual recipients
of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits, certain S corporations with “excess net passive income,” foreign
corporations subject to the branch profits tax, life insurance companies, and taxpayers who may be deemed to have
incurred or continued indebtedness to purchase or carry or have paid or incurred certain expenses allocable to the
Securities. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding these tax consequences. Purchasers of Securities should
consult their tax advisors as to the applicability of these tax consequences and other federal income tax
consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of the Securities, including the possible application of
state, local, foreign and other tax laws.
RATINGS
Moody’s Investors Service has assigned a “MIG1” rating on the Notes and a “Aa3” rating on the Bonds. Any
explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained only from said rating agency. There is no assurance
that the ratings will remain for any given period of time or that they may not be lowered or withdrawn entirely by
the rating service if, in their judgment, circumstances so warrant. Any such downward change in or withdrawal of
the ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Notes and Bonds.
MUNICIPAL ADVISOR
Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, Kansas City, Missouri, has acted as Municipal Advisor to the City in
connection with the sale of the Securities. The Municipal Advisor has assisted the City in the preparation of this Official
Statement, but has not independently verified the factual and financial information contained herein. The Municipal
Advisor has also assisted the City in other matters relating to the issuance of the Securities. The fees of the Municipal
Advisor are contingent upon the issuance of the Securities.
UNDERWRITING
The Notes are being purchased by TD Securities, New York New York (the “Notes Underwriter”) at a price
equal to the principal amount of the Notes, plus original issue premium of $95,499.80, less an underwriting discount
of $3,451.80.
The Bonds are being purchased by The Baker Group, Babylon, New York (the “Bonds Underwriter”) at a
price equal to the par amount of the Bonds, plus a net original issue premium of $525,799.90, less an underwriting
discount of $61,694.77.
The Notes Underwriter and the Bonds Underwriter are collectively referred to herein as the “Underwriters”.
19
ABSENCE OF MATERIAL LITIGATION
The Transcript of Proceedings will contain a certificate of non-litigation dated as of the closing date and
executed by the City to the effect that, except as disclosed in the Official Statement, there is no controversy, suit, or
proceeding of any kind pending or, to the knowledge of the City, threatened wherein or whereby any question is
raised, or may be raised, questioning, disputing, or affecting in any way the legal organization of the City or its
boundaries or the legality of any official act shown to have been done regarding the issuance of the Notes and Bonds
or the constitutionality or validity of the obligation represented by the Bonds or the means provided for the payment
of the Notes and Bonds.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) has promulgated amendments to Rule 15c2-12 (the
“Rule”), requiring continuous secondary market disclosure. In connection with the issuance of the Securities, the
Issuer will enter into a continuing disclosure undertaking (the “Disclosure Undertaking”) wherein the Issuer
covenants to annually provide certain financial information and operating data (collectively, the “Annual Report”)
and other information necessary to comply with the Rule, and to transmit the same to the Municipal Securities
Rulemaking Board. Pursuant to the Disclosure Undertaking, this Issuer has agreed to file its Annual Report with the
national repository (“EMMA”) not more than 180 days after the end of the City’s Fiscal Year, commencing with Fiscal
Year ended in December 31, 2020.
In the Bond Resolution and the Note Resolution, the Issuer covenants with the Underwriter and the
Beneficial Owners to apply the provisions of the Disclosure Undertaking to the Securities. This covenant is for the
benefit of and is enforceable by the Beneficial Owners of the Securities. For more information regarding the
Disclosure Undertaking, see “APPENDIX B – FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE UNDERTAKING.”
The Issuer believes it has complied during the past five years with its prior undertakings under the Rule,
except as follows:
On September 28, 2020, the Issuer entered into a Loan Agreement with the Kansas Department of Health
and Environment to finance improvements to the City’s water distribution system. The Ordinance
authorizing the Issuer’s execution of the Loan Agreement was published on October 1, 2020. On October
16, 2020, the Issuer filed an event notice related to such Loan Agreement.
The Issuer’s audited financial statements for each of the last five fiscal years were not completed by the
filing deadlines primarily because of challenges with financial software conversion (which has since been completed),
staff turnover and delayed receipt of component unit audits. In compliance with the Issuer’s prior disclosure
undertakings, the Issuer timely filed unaudited financial statements and promptly filed audited financial statements
when they became available.
CERTIFICATION OF THIS OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The preparation and distribution of this Official Statement has been authorized by the City. This Official
Statement is hereby duly approved by the governing body of the City as of the date on the cover page hereof.

Pension and Employee Retirement Plans
The Issuer participates in the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (“KPERS”) established in
1962, as an instrumentality of the State, pursuant to K.S.A. 74-4901 et seq., to provide retirement and related
benefits to public employees in Kansas. KPERS is governed by a board of trustees consisting of nine members
each of whom serve four-year terms. The board of trustees appoints an executive director to serve as the
managing officer of KPERS and manage a staff to carry out daily operations of the system.
As of December 31, 2019, KPERS serves approximately 325,000 members and approximately 1,500
participating employers, including the State, school districts, counties, cities, public libraries, hospitals and other
governmental units. KPERS administers the following three statewide, defined benefit retirement plans for public employees:
(a) Kansas Public Employees Retirement System;
(b) Kansas Police and Firemen’s Retirement System; and
(c) Kansas Retirement System for Judges.
These three plans are separate and distinct with different membership groups, actuarial assumptions,
experience, contribution rates and benefit options. The Kansas Public Employees Retirement System is the largest
of the three plans, accounting for approximately 95% of the members. The Kansas Public Employees Retirement
System is further divided into two separate groups, as follows:
(a) State/School Group - includes members employed by the State, school districts, community
colleges, vocational-technical schools and educational cooperatives. The State of Kansas makes all employer
contributions for this group, the majority of which comes from the State General Fund.
A-5
(b) Local Group - all participating cities, counties, library boards, water districts and political
subdivisions are included in this group. Local employers contribute at a different rate than the State/School Group
rate.
KPERS is currently a qualified, governmental, § 401(a) defined benefit pension plan, and has received IRS
determination letters attesting to the plan’s qualified status dated October 14, 1999 and March 5, 2001. KPERS is
also a “contributory” defined benefit plan, meaning that employees make contributions to the plan. This contrasts
it from noncontributory pension plans, which are funded solely by employer contributions. The Issuer's employees
currently annually contribute 6% of their gross salary to the plan if such employees are KPERS Tier 1 members
(covered employment prior to July 1, 2009), KPERS Tier 2 members (covered employment on or after July 1, 2009),
or KPERS Tier 3 members (covered employment on or after January 1, 2015).
The Issuer's contribution varies from year to year based upon the annual actuarial valuation and appraisal
made by KPERS, subject to legislative caps on percentage increases. The Issuer's contribution is 8.61% of the
employee’s gross salary for calendar year 2020. The Issuer’s contribution is projected to change to 8.87% of gross
compensation for calendar year 2021. In addition, the Issuer contributes 1% of the employee’s gross salary for
Death and Disability Insurance for covered employees.
According to the Valuation Report as of December 31, 2019 (the “2019 Valuation Report”) the KPERS Local
Group, of which the Issuer is a member, carried an unfunded accrued actuarial liability (“UAAL”) of approximately
$1.502 billion at the end of 2019. The amount of the UAAL in 2019 changed from the previous year’s amount due
to the factors discussed in the 2019 Valuation Report; such report also includes additional information relating to
the funded status of the KPERS Local Group, including recent trends in the funded status of the KPERS Local Group.
A copy of the 2019 Valuation Report is available on the KPERS website at kpers.org/about/reports.html. The Issuer
has no means to independently verify any of the information set forth on the KPERS website or in the 2019
Valuation Report, which is the most recent financial and actuarial information available on the KPERS website
relating to the funded status of the KPERS Local Group. The 2019 Valuation Report sets the employer contribution rate for the period beginning January 1, 2022, for the KPERS Local Group, and KPERS’ actuaries identified that an
employer contribution rate of 8.90% of covered payroll would be necessary, in addition to statutory contributions
by covered employees, to eliminate the UAAL by the end of the actuarial period set forth in the 2019 Valuation
Report. The statutory contribution rate of employers currently equals the 2019 Valuation Report’s actuarial rate.
As a result, members of the Local Group are adequately funding their projected actuarial liabilities and the UAAL
can be expected to diminish over time. The required employer contribution rate may increase up to the maximum
statutorily allowed rate, which is 1.2% in fiscal year 2017 and thereafter.
The Issuer has established membership in the Kansas Police and Fire Retirement System (“KP&F”) for its
police and fire personnel. KP&F is a division of and is administered by KPERS. Annual contributions are adjusted
annually based on actuarial studies, subject to legislative caps on percentage increases. According to the 2019
Valuation Report, KP&F carried an UAAL of approximately $949 million at the end of 2019. For KP&F, the Issuer's
employees currently annually contribute 7.15% of their gross salary to the plan. For the year beginning January 1,
2020, the Issuer contributes 21.93% of employees’ gross compensation. Beginning January 1, 2021, the Issuer’s
contribution is projected to change to 22.80% of gross compensation for calendar year 2021.
The Issuer is required to implement GASB 68 – Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions. KPERS
produces a Schedule of Employer and Nonemployer Allocations and Schedules of Pension Amounts by Employer and
Nonemployer (the “GASB 68 Report”) which provides the net pension liability allocated to each KPERS participant,
including the Issuer. The GASB 68 Report is available on the KPERS website at kpers.org/about/reports.html. The
Issuer has no means to independently verify any of the information set forth on the KPERS website or in the GASB
68 Report. It is important to note that under existing State law, the Issuer has no legal obligation for the UAAL or
the net pension liability calculated by KPERS, and such figures are for informational purposes only.

Other Information
Public recreation facilities available to city residents include 27 parks, a public golf course, baseball/softball
fields, the Kenwood Cove Aquatic Park, the Stifel Theatre for the Performing Arts, the Salina Community Theater,
two museums and tennis courts. Two private clubs provide additional recreational opportunities for residents of
the City.
The Tony’s Pizza Events Center (formerly the Bicentennial Center), a 7,500-seat facility, with over 40,000
square feet of exhibit space, nicknamed “Mid-America’s Meeting Place”, provides a venue for the region’s numerous
concerts, exhibitions, conventions, and other events are also held in the Center.
There are several radio stations in the City. Five standard television stations from Wichita serve the Salina
area. Additionally, Cox Communications provides cable television and broadband internet service to subscribing
customers.

located within the City.
ECONOMIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CITY
The City of Salina benefits from its location at the junction of Interstate Highways 70 and 135. This
convenient location has drawn numerous national and regional companies to open manufacturing or distribution
centers in or adjacent to the City. Such companies include Schwan’s Global Supply Chain, Inc., Salina Vortex,
GeoProbe, Bergkamp, Kasa Industrial Controls, Premier Pneumatics, Great Plains Manufacturing, PKM Steel,
Crestwood Cabinets, McShares, Inc., Pepsi Cola, Rev Group, Exide Battery, Advance Auto Parts Distribution Center,
and Signify. Currently, manufacturing, retail trade, and service industries rank as the three primary employers in the City. No single industry is dominant. The government sector and wholesale trade industries make up the second
tier of Salina employers.
The City serves as a 24-county regional trade center for north central Kansas. Many individuals and
businesses within a 70-mile radius travel to the City to purchase consumer goods and services. This designation as
a regional trade center is supported by the fact that the City had the third highest “trade pull factor” of all Kansas
first class cities in 2020 according to Kansas Department of Revenue. City trade pull factor is computed by dividing
the per capita sales tax of a city by the statewide per capita sales tax.
According to the Economic Impact Report, from December 31, 2017, businesses and organizations at the
Salina Regional Airport and Airport Industrial Center employed 5,996 employees with a total level economic activity
for 2017 of approximately $1,168,468,359. The report also cited that the Airport/Airport Industrial Center accounted
for 14.3 percent of the employment in Saline County and 37 percent of the total economic activity in a seven-county
area.
The Kansas Department of Labor estimated the civilian labor force in the City of Salina for the year 2020 to
be 25,446 persons. The estimated median household income for the City in 2019 was $50,490, and owner-occupied
housing rates in the City were 64.4%.
Salina is a city centered more on industry than agriculture. Currently, there are approximately 100
manufacturing and processing companies located in the City. The City, Saline County, the Chamber of Commerce,
and the Salina Airport Authority have developed several economic incentives which can be offered as inducements
to opening industrial facilities. These include property tax abatement for basic industry, the waiving of building
permit and inspection fees, refunding of sales tax paid on machinery and equipment, and providing training for
employees through the Salina Area Technical College and the Kansas State University at Salina. Additionally, a “build-
to-suit-tenant” agreement is available on sites in the Airport Industrial Center that can provide 100% financing for
land and building costs.

In recent years, Dillon Companies, Inc., a subsidiary of Kroger Company, recently opened a 77,000 square
foot facility. Schwan’s Company is building a new 400,000 square foot expansion at the existing manufacturing
facility. The project is expected to bring 225 new jobs by 2023. Dick’s Sporting Goods and Marshalls clothing store
opened in a building formerly occupied by Sutherland Lumber Company. In addition, several new restaurants have
opened or expanded, including Olive Garden, Longhorn Steakhouse, Starbucks, Taco Bell and Daimaru Steakhouse.
The Salina Airport Authority
The Salina Airport Authority (the “Authority”) is a body corporate and politic. The Authority was created
by the City of Salina in April 1965 pursuant to the authority granted by the City by the surplus property and public
airport authority act of the State of Kansas. The Authority was created for the purpose of accepting as surplus
property portions of the former Schilling Air Force Base, which was closed by the United States Department of
Defense in June 1965. By quitclaim deed the Authority received over 2,900 acres of land and numerous buildings
for the purpose of operating and developing the Salina Municipal Airport and the Salina Airport Industrial Center.
The Authority is managed and controlled by a five-member Board of Directors appointed by the Salina City
Commission. In 2012, the Salina Municipal Airport was renamed the Salina Regional Airport.
The Salina Regional Airport (the “Airport”) is the only commercial service airport serving Salina/Saline
County and the 24-county area, which comprises North Central Kansas. The Airport also services the corporate,
business, private aviation and flight training needs of industry, business and individuals in the area. The Airport is
also used by Kansas State University Polytechnic (“KSUP”). The campus of KSUP is located adjacent to the Airport.
KSUP offers degrees in professional flight training, airframe and power plant maintenance, UAS, airport management
and avionics technology.
In April 2018, United Airlines began daily service from Salina to Chicago and Denver. The airline provides maximum connection opportunities for both business and leisure travelers. Customers also have the opportunity to
accrue frequent flier miles in United’s MileagePlus loyalty program. With 550 daily United and United Express flights
from Chicago and 370 daily United and United Express flights from Denver, Salina travelers have access to
destinations around the globe. Salina passengers enjoy service aboard the quiet, comfortable Bombardier-
manufactured Canadair Regional Jet, CRJ200. SkyWest Airlines is a top CRJ200 operator and has been named
manufacturer’s most reliable operator in North America five times. Also adding to the increased enplanement count
is the Airport’s status as an Airport of Embarkation/Debarkation by the Fort Riley, Kansas Army Installation located
just 60 miles to the east of Salina on I-70. The Airport also accommodates a wide variety of aircraft including business
jets, military, flight training and general aviation aircraft. During 2020, the Salina Air Traffic Control Tower logged
over 60,000 aircraft operations serving the needs of over 7,000 business jets, the professional flight training
department of Kansas State University, general aviation and military aircraft. The Airport’s fixed base operator,
Avflight Salina, delivered over 2.295 million gallons of fuel to the wide variety of aircraft utilizing the Airport during
2020 and 118,268 as of January 2021.
The Airport and Airport Industrial Center is home for over 125 businesses and organizations. One of the
primary functions of the Authority is to facilitate the continued growth of jobs and payroll at the Airport and Airport
Industrial Center. The Authority works in partnership with the City of Salina, Saline County, Salina Community
Economic Development Organization, the Salina Area Chamber of Commerce, and the Kansas Department of
Commerce for the retention of existing business and industry and the recruitment of new business and industry. A
2019 report prepared by the Docking Institute at Fort Hays State University cited the business and organizations
located at the Salina Regional Airport and Airport Industrial Center contributed approximately 41 percent of the total
economic activity in Saline County during 2017.

Future Indebtedness
The City annually prepares and adopts a five-year capital improvements plan. This plan identifies and
prioritizes potential capital improvement projects within the City and includes the respective funding sources. Over
the next two years the City anticipates issuing general obligation bonds to retire its outstanding general obligation
notes as well as providing general obligation note and/or bond funding for approximately $7,000,000 of
improvements. A portion of the debt service payments on bonds issued for these projects are anticipated to be paid
from local sales tax and utility system fees. Borrowing amounts described above do not include future subdivision
improvement projects financed with general obligation bonds payable as to both principal and interest in part from
special assessments levied upon the benefitted property. The City typically undertakes such projects after receiving
and reviewing a valid petition from property owners. See FINANCIAL INFORMATION – “Special Assessments”.
The City has been involved with civil litigation concerning environmental contamination in certain areas in
the vicinity of the Salina Regional Airport and the Salina Airport Industrial Center. The contamination was caused by
military activity that occurred between 1942 and 1966 when the site was operated as the Schilling Air Force
Base. The City, the Salina Airport Authority, Unified School District No. 305, and Kansas State University (the “Salina
Public Entities”) sued the United States seeking federal funds to clean up the contamination. A remedial investigation and feasibility study (RI/FS) was undertaken to determine the extent and severity of the contamination
and to determine the best method of remediation. Based on the RI/FS, the Kansas Department of Health and
Environment (KDHE) issued a Corrective Action Decision (CAD) on July 29, 2019. The Salina Public Entities and the
U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) reached a settlement of the litigation ultimately documented in the form of a
Consent Decree filed in U.S. District Court on November 23, 2020. Pursuant to the Consent Decree, the Salina Public
Entities assumed responsibility for the Response Action in the CAD in exchange for a $65.9 million lump sum
settlement payment by the United States to the Salina Public Entities. The settlement payment was received by the
City on behalf of the Salina Public Entities in February 2021. The Salina Public Entities currently expect that the
settlement payment will be sufficient to complete the Response Action required by the CAD.
Debt Payment Record
The City has always met principal and interest payments on all outstanding bonds and temporary notes
when due and payable.
A-13
Legal Debt Limits
Cities within Kansas are permitted to issue bonds in an aggregate amount not to exceed 30% of the total
assessed valuation of the city. Bonds issued for the purpose of improving, acquiring, enlarging, or extending
municipal utilities, including storm and sanitary sewer systems; bonds issued to pay the cost of improvements to
intersections and streets in front of city or school district property; bonds for bridges as authorized by a vote of the
electors of a city; bonds issued to refund outstanding bonds; and bonds payable from revenue sources other than
the general taxing authority of the city are not included in total aggregate debt for purposes of computing a city’s
debt limitation.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CITY
Accounting, Budgeting and Auditing Procedures
The City follows a modified accrual basis of accounting for all tax supported funds of the City, including the
General Fund.
An annual budget of estimated receipts and disbursements for the coming calendar year is required by
statute to be prepared for all funds (unless specifically exempted). The budget is prepared utilizing the modified
accrual basis which is further modified by the encumbrance method of accounting. For example, commitments such
as purchase orders and contracts, in addition to disbursements and accounts payable, are recorded as expenditures.
The budget lists estimated receipts by funds and sources and estimated disbursements by funds and purposes. The
proposed budget is presented to the governing body of the City prior to August 1, with a public hearing required to
be held prior to August 15, with the final budget to be adopted by a majority vote of the governing body of the City
prior to August 25 of each year (or September 20 if the City must conduct a public hearing to levy taxes in excess of
its revenue neutral rate described below). Budgets may be amended upon action of the governing body after notice
and public hearing, provided that no additional tax revenues may be raised after the original budget is adopted.
The City may levy taxes in accordance with the requirements of its adopted budget. Property tax levies
are based on the adopted budget of the City and the assessed valuations provided by the County appraiser.
In 2021, the Kansas Legislature passed legislation (the “Revenue Neutral Tax Act”) that repeals the “tax lid” (formerly
K.S.A. 79-2925c) and provides that, beginning January 1, 2021, a taxing subdivision (which includes any political
subdivision of the State that levies an ad valorem property tax, including the City) is not authorized to levy a property
tax rate in excess of its revenue neutral rate without first providing notice, holding a public hearing, and authorizing
such property tax rate by majority vote of its governing body. The revenue neutral rate means the tax rate for the
current tax year that would generate the same property tax revenue as levied the previous tax year using the current
tax year’s total assessed valuation.
The Revenue Neutral Tax Act provides that by June 15 of every year, each county clerk shall calculate the
revenue neutral rate for each taxing subdivision in their respective county. If a taxing subdivision desires to levy a
tax rate in excess of its revenue neutral rate, it must first publish notice of a public hearing and notify the county
clerk of the taxing subdivision’s intent to exceed the revenue neutral rate. The county clerk is required to provide
notice of the public hearing to each taxpayer with property in the taxing subdivision, along with following
information concerning the taxing subdivision: (1) the revenue neutral rate, (2) the proposed property tax revenue
needed to fund the proposed budget, (3) the proposed tax rate based on the proposed budget, (4) the tax rate and
property tax of each taxing subdivision on the taxpayer’s property from the previous year’s tax statement, (5) the
appraised value and assessed value of the taxpayer’s property, (6) estimates of the tax for the current tax year on
the taxpayer’s property based on the revenue neutral rate of each taxing subdivision and any proposed tax rates
that exceed the revenue neutral rates, (7) the difference between the estimates of tax based on the proposed tax
rate and the revenue neutral rate. The public hearing regarding exceeding the revenue neutral rate is to he held
between August 10 and September 10, and can be held in conjunction with the taxing subdivision’s budget hearing.
A-14
If multiple taxing subdivisions within the county are required to hold a public hearing, the notices to the taxpayer
can be combined into a single notice. After the public hearing, the taxing subdivision can approve exceeding the
revenue neutral rate by a majority vote of its governing body, and the amount of tax to be levied must be certified
to the county clerk by September 20. The taxing subdivision’s adopted budget shall not result in a tax rate in excess
of its proposed rate stated in the notice provided to the taxpayers. If a taxing subdivision fails to comply with the
requirements of the Revenue Neutral Tax Act, it shall refund to the taxpayers any property taxes over collected
based on the amount of the levy that was in excess of the revenue neutral rate.
The City cannot predict the impact of the Revenue Neutral Tax Act on the ratings on the Securities, or the
general rating of the City. A change in the rating on the Securities or a change in the general rating of the City may
adversely impact the market price of the Securities in the secondary market.
Kansas law prohibits governmental units from creating indebtedness unless there are funds on hand in the
proper accounts and unencumbered by previous action with which to pay such indebtedness. An exception to this
cash-basis operation is made where provision has been made for payment of obligations by bonds or other specific
debt obligations authorized by law.
The financial records of the City are audited annually by a firm of independent certified public accountants
in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. In recent years, the annual audit has been performed by
Mize Houser & Company, P.A., Certified Public Accountants, Topeka, Kansas. Copies of the audit reports for the past
five (5) years are on file in the Clerk's office and are available for review. The audit for the Fiscal Year ended
December 31, 2019 is attached hereto as APPENDIX C. The unaudited financial statements of the City for the Fiscal
Year ended December 31, 2020 are attached hereto as APPENDIX D. There can be no guarantee that the information
included in such unaudited financial statements will not materially change when subject to audit.
The City has historically prepared a Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, which includes audited financial
statements and other pertinent credit information. Appropriate periodic credit information necessary for maintaining the ratings on the Bonds will be provided by the City to the rating agencies rating the Bonds.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) issued Statement No. 34, Basic Financial
Statements–and Management’s Discussion and Analysis–for State and Local Governments in June 1999 (“Statement
34”), which established new requirements for the annual financial reports of state and local governments. Among
the major changes embodied in Statement 34, governments will now be required to: (a) report on the overall state
of the government’s financial health, not just its overall “funds” in a newly required Management’s Discussion and
Analysis (MD&A), (b) provide the most complete information available about the cost of delivering services to their
citizens in the annual report which will now also include financial statements prepared using full accrual accounting
for all of the government’s activities, (c) include information about the government’s public infrastructure assets –
such as bridges, roads and storm sewers, and (d) prepare an introductory narrative section analyzing the
government’s financial performance. The City has implemented Statement No. 34 in its financial statements.
The financial information contained in the Appendices to this Official Statement are an integral part of this
document and are intended to be read in conjunction herewith.

Special Assessments
The City has pursued a policy of utilizing special benefit districts to assign the cost of certain internal
improvement projects to the property that directly benefits from the construction. Kansas statutes allow for the
creation of special benefit districts to pay for the cost of a variety of improvements including street construction,
storm water drains, sanitary sewer system improvements, street lighting, water system improvements, recreational
facilities, flood control projects, bridges, and parking facilities. The City has typically utilized special benefit districts
to pay for the costs associated with constructing streets, sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and lighting in new residential
developments within the City. When a developer requests the use of Special Assessments to finance public
improvements, the City requires that they pay 20% of the estimated cost of the project in cash, or file a letter of
credit equivalent to 35% of the estimated cost of the project. The letter of credit is released when Certificates of
Occupancy have been issued for 35% of the lots in the development. Special benefit districts have also been created
to pay for the cost of improvements to streets and sidewalks in the City’s downtown area.
The creation of special benefit districts, the determination of property benefited, and the method of
allocating the cost of the improvement is at the discretion of the City. Property owners have the ability to suggest
improvements through a petition process and to comment on the final amount of their assessment. The City may
or may not be included as part of the special benefit district. All property owners have the option to pay their portion
of the improvement cost with a one-time payment during a 30-day assessment prepayment period or pay in annual
installments with interest over a certain number of years.
Upon completion of the special benefit district improvement projects and a 30-day prepayment period, the
City issues general obligation bonds to provide for permanent project financing. The payment of the principal of and
interest on such bonds is paid from the special assessments levied annually on the benefited property. Special
assessments are paid at the same time and in the same manner as ad valorem property taxes. If at any time the
special assessments received from the property owners are insufficient to provide for the payment of the principal
of and interest on the bonds, the City is obligated to provide for the balance of such payments through its ability to
levy unlimited ad valorem property taxes.

Tax Collections
Tax statements are mailed November 1 each year and may be paid in full or one-half on or before December
20 with the remaining one-half due on or before May 10 of the following year. Taxes that are unpaid on the due
dates are penalized at a statutorily prescribed rate until paid or until the property is sold for taxes. Real estate
bearing unpaid taxes is advertised for sale in July of each year and is sold by the County for taxes and all legal charges
on the first Tuesday in September. Properties that are sold and not redeemed within two years after the tax sale
are subject to foreclosure sale, except homestead properties which are subject to foreclosure sale after three years.
Personal property taxes are assessed, due and may be paid in the same manner as real estate taxes. Motor
vehicle property taxes are based on valuations provided by the Kansas Department of Revenue and the county
average tax rate for the county in which the vehicle is registered. Motor vehicle taxes are payable to the county
treasurer at the time of the vehicle’s annual registration. Vehicle registration dates are assigned by the State in a
manner such as to equal registration over a twelve-month period. Motor vehicle taxes are distributed by the county
to the state, city and other taxing jurisdictions based on their proportionate tax levies. Delinquent personal and
motor vehicle taxes are penalized at the same rate as delinquent real property taxes. The following is a summary of
tax collections for the years shown.

Sales Tax
Sales tax collections are the responsibility of the Kansas Department of Revenue. The Department of
Revenue distributes the local option countywide and citywide sales taxes on a monthly basis. Except as set forth
below, Countywide sales taxes are distributed between the levying county and the cities located within the county
based on population and relative tax levies. Citywide local option sales taxes are distributed solely to the levying
city. Statewide sales taxes are retained entirely by the state.
In 1982 the voters of Saline County approved a 1% countywide local option sales tax. In 1992 voters of the
City approved a local option .50% citywide sales tax for purposes of helping fund general operations expenditures of
the City. Both of these taxes were approved in perpetuity.
In May of 2016, voters approved a .75% citywide retailers sales tax that will be in existence for 20 years and
will be used for capital improvements and economic development (the “2016 Sales Tax”). The 2016 sales tax replaced
an existing sales tax of .40%.
A-19
In November of 2020, the voters of Saline County approved an additional 0.5% countywide local option
sales tax, the revenues derived from which are dedicated to paying the costs of a new Criminal Justice Complex, such
sales tax shall terminate when all costs associated with the Criminal Justice Complex project have been paid,
including the retirement of any bonds issued therefor (the “2020 Sales Tax”). No portion of the revenues derived
from the 2020 Sales Tax will be distributed to the City.
The total sales tax for goods and services in the City is 9.25%, which consists of 6.5% imposed by the State,
1.5% countywide local option sales tax, and 1.25% citywide local option sales tax. The following table lists the local-
option sales tax receipts of the City of Salina in the years indicated.

Appraisal and Assessment Procedures
The determination of appraised and assessed valuation and the collection of property taxes for all political
subdivisions in the State of Kansas are the responsibility of the various counties. The Saline County appraiser
annually determines the appraised valuation of property located in the City. The appraiser’s determination is based
on a number of criteria established by Kansas’s statute. All property, with the exception of agricultural land, is
appraised based on estimated fair market value. Agricultural property is appraised based on productivity value.
Kansas statutes require that each parcel of real property be reviewed and inspected by the county appraiser once
every four years for taxation purposes. Once appraised valuations have been determined, they are multiplied by
the applicable statutory assessment rates to arrive at the assessed valuations. The total assessed valuation is then
used to establish property tax rates.
Property Valuation Challenges. Taxpayers may challenge the appraised value of their property by paying
property taxes under protest. Such challenges are subject to administrative and judicial review. Taxes paid under
protest are distributed to taxing jurisdictions in the same manner as all other property tax collections. If a taxpayer’s
challenge to the appraiser’s valuation is successful, the county is liable to refund the amount of property taxes
attributable to the protested value that was previously paid under protest. The county will then withhold from
future property tax distributions to other taxing jurisdictions an amount equal to the jurisdiction’s pro rata share of
such refund. Any such withholdings from future property tax distributions may have a material adverse effect on
the City’s financial situation.
A-20
Property Assessment Rates
In order to determine the assessed valuation of a parcel of property for taxation purposes, the county
appraiser multiplies the appraised value of the parcel by the applicable assessment rate. Current property
assessment rates were established in 1986, effective in 1989, and slightly modified in 1992. The most significant
1992 modifications involved lowering the assessment rate on commercial and industrial real property from 30% to
25% and on residential property from 12% to 11.5%. The following table shows the current assessment rates for the
different classes of taxable tangible property within the State of Kansas.
Real Property:
Residential 11.5%
Commercial and Industrial-
Real Property 25.0
Agricultural Land (1) 30.0
Agricultural Improvements 25.0
Vacant Lots 12.0
Not-for-Profit (2) 12.0
All Other 30.0
Personal Property: (3)
Mobile Homes 11.5%
Mineral Leaseholds (large) 30.0
Mineral Leaseholds (small) 25.0
Commercial & Industrial
Machinery & Equipment 25.0
All Other 30.0 Utilities:
Railroads federally mandated rate
All Other Public Utilities 33.0%
Motor Vehicles: 20.0%
Property Exempt:
Property used for the following purposes, or portions thereof, are exempt from taxation
provided certain statutory requirements are met: religious, educational, literary, scientific,
benevolent, alumni associations, veterans’ organizations, or charitable purposes, including
parsonages and community service organizations providing humanitarian services.
(1) Agricultural land is valued based on the productivity value of the property and not estimated market valuation.
(2) A bill passed by the Kansas Legislature in 1994 clarified this class of property to include all property owned and
operated by not-for-profit organizations not subject to federal income taxation pursuant to paragraphs (2), (3),
(4), (7), (8), or (10) of Subsection C of Section 501 of the federal internal revenue code. This bill specifically
established that private, not-for-profit country clubs would be assessed at 12% for all land that does not
accommodate buildings or improvements.
(3) The 2006 Kansas Legislature exempted from all property or ad valorem property taxes levied under the laws of
the State, all commercial, industrial, telecommunications, and railroad machinery and equipment acquired by
qualified purchase or lease after June 30, 2006 or transported into the State after June 30, 2006 for the purpose
of expanding an existing business or creation of a new business.
A-21
Equalization Ratios
Annually, the Property Valuation Division of the Kansas Department of Revenue conducts a study to
compare the assessed valuation of real property to estimated market value based on property sale prices. The study
derives an equalization ratio which, when divided into assessed valuation, provides a means to approximate actual
market value. According to the 2019 Preliminary Kansas Appraisal/Sales Ratio Study, the equalization ratio for
residential real property in Saline County was 11.44%, and commercial and industrial property was 24.25%.

To the Citizens of the City of Salina, Kansas:
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the City of Salina, Kansas (the "City") for the year ended
December 31, 2019, is hereby submitted. The City’s Finance Department prepared the report. Responsibility
for both the accuracy of the data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all
disclosures, rests with the City. To the best of our knowledge and belief, the enclosed data is accurate in all
material respects and is reported in a manner designed to present fairly the financial position and results of
operations of all various funds and account groups of the City. We believe that all disclosures necessary to
enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City's financial activities have been included.
Report Format
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report is presented in three sections: Introductory, Financial and
Statistical. The introductory section includes a description of the City, including services provided, and
explanation of the City’s accounting system and budgetary controls, and a brief discussion of the City’s
economic condition and outlook. The City's organizational chart is also included to assist the reader in
understanding the structure of the City. The financial section includes the Independent auditor’s report,
Management’s discussion & analysis, Government wide financial statements, Fund financial statements,
Notes to the financial statements, and Individual and combining statements and schedules. The statistical
section includes selected financial and demographic information, generally presented on a multi-year basis.
The reader is specifically directed to Management’s Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) which immediately
follows the independent auditor’s report. MD&A provides a narrative explanation and overview of significant
features and trends reflected by data in the financial statements.
Accounting Systems and Internal Controls
A critical part of the control system is the City’s comprehensive Budgetary and Financial Policies, which
establish guidelines for budgetary and financial practices. The Budgetary and Financial Policies are reviewed
by the City Commission and updated each year as a part of the budget process.
City staff is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that
the assets of the City are protected from loss, theft or misuse and that adequate accounting data is compiled
to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that
these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that: (1) the cost of a control
should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived; and (2) the valuation of costs and benefits require
estimates and judgment by management.
The objective of budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual
appropriated budget approved by the City Commission. The legal level of budgetary control is maintained at
the Fund level, in accordance with State Statutes. However, management control is maintained at the
department level. The City uses an encumbrance accounting system, in which estimated purchase amounts
are recorded prior to the release of purchase orders to vendors. Open encumbrances are reported as
reservations of fund balance at December 31, 2019 in the general fund and the special revenue funds.
Various internal compliance procedures are implemented to ensure proper implementation of the budget as
well as to maintain a degree of accountability for both revenues and expenditures.
Independent Audit
Kansas Statutes Annotated 75-1122 requires an annual audit of the books of account, financial records and
i
transactions of all administrative departments of the City by independent certified public accountants
selected by the City Commission. This requirement has been complied with and the auditor's opinion has
been included in this report.
Profile of the Community
The Town of Salina was organized in 1858 under the Town and Village Act in the State of Kansas, and
became a City of the First Class on July 9, 1920.The City has had a Commission-City Manager form of
government since 1921. The Commission is comprised of five members elected at large. Each year the
commission chooses one member to act as Mayor. The City Manager is appointed by the Commission, and
acts as its primary agent in accordance with state statute. Other city officers and employees are appointed
by the City Manager. The population of the City reported by the 2010 decennial census was 47,707.
The reporting entity includes the City of Salina as well as two discretely presented component units, both
proprietary fund types. The Salina Airport Authority operates the Salina Municipal Airport and Airport
Industrial Center, and the Salina Housing Authority administers public housing programs within the City of
Salina. The entity also includes one blended component unit. Salina Field House Qualified Active Low-
Income Community Business, Inc. (SFH QalicB). SFH QalicB was created for the purpose of providing an
indoor sports facility in the downtown core of the city of Salina. In addition, the City of Salina participates in a
joint venture with Saline County, the City-County Building Authority. This report includes all funds and
account groups of the City.
The City provides a full range of services including police and fire protection, development services,
construction and maintenance of streets, drainage facilities and other infrastructure; recreational activities
and cultural events; emergency medical services and convention facilities. In addition to general government
activities, the City also provides water, wastewater, sanitation, and solid waste services; therefore, these
activities are included in the reporting entity.
Economic Outlook and Strength
The City benefits from its location at the junction of Interstate Highways 70 and 135. This convenient location
has drawn numerous national and regional companies to open manufacturing or distribution centers in or
adjacent to the community. Such companies include Pepsi-Cola, Exide Technologies, Blue Philips Lighting
Company, ElDorado National, and Schwan’s Global Supply Chain. Manufacturing, retail trade, and service
industries rank as the three primary employers in the City. No single industry is dominant.
The City of Salina retains its position near the top of a list of first class cities with respect to “trade pull
factor.” According to the Kansas Department of Revenue’s Annual City Trade Pull Factor report, Salina had
a pull of factor of 1.47 in 2019. The pull factor measures the degree to which a city or county area captures
retail trade from outside the jurisdiction. A pull factor of greater than 1 indicates that a city is attracting more
retail trade from outside the city/county than it is losing to other counties. It is apparent from this that Salina
continues to serve as a regional economic hub in 2019.
Major Initiatives
In April, 2016, voters elected to replace the .40 cent capital improvement sales tax with a .75 cent capital
improvement sales tax for a term of 20 years. Priorities for the sales tax are improving neighborhood streets
and drainage, preserving stable property tax rates, ensuring a quality park system, constructing and
maintaining community improvements, funding equipment for maintenance, repayment of future bonds for
large projects and attracting quality jobs. As a result of this initiative, the City has seen a 38% increase in
sales tax collections in 2018 as compared to 2016.
In 2018, the City of Salina issued $22,570,000 in STAR bonds which funded several projects in the City’s
downtown corridor. In 2019 the Alley Entertainment Center opened for business and the majority of the
City’s Downtown Streetscape project was completed. The new downtown hotel began construction in 2019
and is anticipated to open in July 2020. Other major projects that were on going included gutter and paving
on North 9th Street, South Well Field improvements, continued improvements to the water distribution system
and preliminary design on the Smoky Hill River Renewal and construction of the Police Training Center
project.
ii
The City continues to address fiduciary pressures generated by a recessionary economy and the more
recent financial impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic. General adjustments to the pay plan for cost of living
changes at a rate of 2.0% were implemented in 2019. The City also allowed for merit review increases up to
3%.
Capital Improvement Planning
The City's Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) consists of two components. One component consists of “routine”
capital—including vehicle and equipment replacement, technology replacement, building repair and
improvement, routine pavement maintenance activity, utility system enhancements and similar items. The
amount of funding for these projects may fluctuate based on needs and funding availability, however,
planned amounts are allocated over a multi-year period. Source of funding for routine capital is current cash
resources from the fund appropriate to the nature of the purchase.
The second component of the CIP includes major projects that typically require issuance of bonds or notes,
although these projects may also be supplemented with available cash and grant financing. The plan is
updated each year after an extensive evaluation of the demands on future financial resources. The Capital
Improvement program is scheduled for a major revision as the result of the sales tax to be used for that
purpose.

Major projects budgeted in 2019 included a Landfill Cell Construction and the implementation of automated
Sanitation collection. The Landfill project was completed; however, the Sanitation project has been delayed
until late 2020 or early 2021. The significant increases in 2020 and 2021 are a result of the anticipated
beginning of the construction of the Smoky Hill River Renewal Project and Wastewater Treatment Plant
respectively. Due to uncertain Sales Tax recovery post Covid-19, the River Renewal project has been
delayed. No major projects have been planned for 2022 and 2023 until financial resources for those years
can be further evaluated.
*The year a project is scheduled reflects the year that construction is initiated. Preliminary work (design,
acquisition) may precede this date by one or more years, and permanent financing may not occur until one
(or more years depending on project magnitude) subsequent to this date.
Financial Policies
The City has adopted a formal set of Budgetary and Financial Policies, addressing such items as fund
balances, capital improvements, operating budgets, long term debt management, accounting, auditing and
financial reporting, revenues, cash management and investments. Financial policies contribute to financial
stability by:
1. Providing consistent guidance in decision making
2. Establishing appropriate levels of fund balances
3. Governing the use of one time or unanticipated resources
4. Providing a multi-year capital improvements process
5. Establishing responsibilities and deadlines for budget preparation
6. Providing for a balanced annual operating budget
7. Providing guidelines on the use of debt, including appropriate purposes and terms
8. Provide a linkage between capital improvement scheduling and long term debt management
planning
iii
9. Require annual audits and financial reporting in conformance with Generally Accepted Accounting
Procedures
10. Require timely and regular interim financial reporting to the Governing body
11. Ensure the safety of cash and near cash resources (timely collection of Accounts Receivable,
etc.).
Acknowledgments
The preparation of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report was made possible by the dedicated
Finance staff of the City of Salina and the professional advice and efforts of the GordonCPA auditing team.
Finally, preparation of this report would not have been possible without the support of the City Commission.
Sincerely,
Michael D. Schrage

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Mayor and City Commissioners
City of Salina, Kansas
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities,
the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information
of the City of Salina, Kansas, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes to the financial
statements, which collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation,
and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the financial statement based on our audit. We conducted our audit
in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the Kansas Municipal
Audit and Accounting Guide. Those standards require we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statement is free of material misstatement. We did not audit the financial
statements of the Salina Field House Qualified Active Low-Income Community Business, Inc. (SFH QalicB), which
is included within the financial statements as a major governmental fund. This activity represents 4% and 1%,
respectively, of the total assets and total revenues of the governmental funds. Those financial statements were
audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included for SFH QalicB, is based solely on the report of the other auditors. We also did not audit the financial
statements of the Salina Airport Authority which statements reflect total assets and deferred outflows of resources
of $46,899,592 as of December 31, 2019 and total revenues of $2,432,958 for the year then ended, and the Housing
Authority of the City of Salina, which statements reflect total assets and deferred outflows of resources of
$7,393,221 as of June 30, 2019 and total revenues of $2,620,347 for the year then ended, which are discretely
presented component units in the accompanying financial statements. Those financial statements were audited by
other auditors whose reports thereon have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included for the Salina Airport Authority and the Housing Authority of the City of Salina, is based solely on the
reports of the other auditors.
2
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,
the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial
statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinions
In our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type
activities, the aggregate discretely presented component units, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund
information of the City of Salina, Kansas, as of December 31, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position
and cash flows, where applicable, thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General, Tourism and
Convention, Special Gas and Sales Tax Capital Funds for the year then ended in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
Prior Period Restatement
As discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, certain errors in amounts previously reported as of December 31,
2018, were discovered by management of the City during the current year. Accordingly, these amounts have been
restated in the December 31, 2019, financial statements now presented, and adjustments have been made to net
position to correct the error. Our opinion is not modified with respect to these matters.
The financial statements of the City of Salina, Kansas, as of December 31, 2018, were audited by other auditors whose
report dated September 29, 2019, expressed an unmodified opinion on those statements.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion
and analysis on pages 4 through 15, the other postemployment benefit schedules on page 71 and 72, the schedule
of the City’s proportionate share of the net pension liability on page 73, and the schedule of City contributions on page
73 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic
financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential
part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or
historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance
with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of
management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with
management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during
our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information
because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any
assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the
City’s financial statements as a whole. The introductory section, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial
statements and schedules, and statistical tables as listed in the table of contents are presented for purposes of
additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The combining and individual
nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules are the responsibility of management and were derived from and
relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional
procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying account and other records
used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional
procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion,
the information is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.
3
The introductory and statistical sections have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
basic financial statements and, accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

Management Discussion and Analysis
Year Ended December 31, 2019
This section of the report contains an overview and analysis of the City of Salina’s financial statements for the fiscal
year ended December 31, 2019. The information contained here, as well as the information contained in the letter of
transmittal, are intended to provide the reader of the financial statements with a well-rounded picture of the City’s
financial condition.
Financial Highlights
On an accrual basis, the City’s government-wide net position increased $8.1 million from current operations with
net position increases of $4.9 million and $3.2 million in governmental activities and business-type activities,
respectively.
At the close of 2019, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $15.8 million, a
decrease of $3.3 million from the prior year. This primarily resulted capital project expenditures in the Capital
Projects Fund. The General Fund balance increased $2.6 million over the prior year.
At the close of 2019, the City’s enterprise funds reported a combined ending Net Position of $93.6 million, an
increase of $3.2 million over prior year. Positive performance was shared by the Water and Sewer Fund, the
Sanitation Fund, and the Golf Fund, with the Water and Sewer Fund providing the bulk of the change ($2.7
million). The Solid Waste Disposal Fund saw a negative performance as a result of additional costs related to the
opening of the Drive Thru Recycling Center.
Revenues from governmental activities decreased by $7.0 million from the prior year and revenues from
business type activities increased $.7 million from the prior year.
Revenues from investments continue to be minimal.
The Basic Financial Statements
The basic financial statements of the City include the government-wide financial statements and the fund financial
statements. The notes to the financial statements follow the basic financial statements and are essential for the
reader’s understanding of the financial statements. Other supplementary information, including the combining
schedules for non-major funds and the budgetary comparison reports, are at the end of this report to provide
additional information for the reader.
Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements present the results of the City’s operations using the accrual basis of
accounting, the same basis as is used by private sector businesses. These statements focus on the long-term
financial picture of the City as a whole.
The Statement of Net Position reports all of the City’s assets and liabilities. Net position, the difference between
assets and deferred outflows of resources and liabilities, are an important measure of the City’s overall financial
health. Net position represents the total accumulated and unused resources available to the City for the purpose of
providing services. Over time, the increases and decreases in net position can be monitored to determine if the
City’s financial position is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities shows how net position has changed during the fiscal year. One unique feature of this
statement is how it shows the revenues and expenses related to specific programs and how much of those programs
were supported by the general taxes of the City. Since this statement is prepared on the accrual basis of accounting,
all revenues and expenses are included, regardless of when cash is actually received. Both statements show the
operations of the City broken down between governmental and business-type activities. Governmental activities are
the operations of the City generally supported by taxes, such as public safety (police, fire, and EMS), public works,

public health, and culture & recreation. Business-type activities are operations of the City that are intended to
recover a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges. These include water and sewer, refuse
collection, the golf course, and operation of the City solid waste facility.
The government-wide financial statements include the Salina Airport Authority and Salina Housing Authority as
discretely presented component units of the City and the Salina Field House Qualified Active Low-Income
Community Business, Inc. (SFH QalicB) as a blended component unit. Note 1, item A in the Notes to the Financial
Statements provides a more complete explanation of the relationship between these entities and the City of Salina.
Fund Financial Statements
The City uses three types of funds to manage its resources: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary
funds. A fund is a fiscal entity with a set of self-balancing accounts recording financial resources together with all
related liabilities and residual equities and balances, and the changes therein. These accounting entities are
separated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with
regulations, restrictions, or limitations.
Governmental fund financial statements are prepared on a modified accrual basis. Under this basis, revenues are
recognized when they become measurable and available, and expenditures are recognized when the related fund
liability is incurred with the exception of long-term debt and similar items which are recorded when due. The focus is
on the short-term financial picture of the operations of the individual fund, rather than long-term citywide view
provided by the government-wide statements. Major governmental funds are presented in individual columns, while
non-major governmental funds are aggregated into an “Other Governmental Funds” column. A combining statement
for the non-major funds is presented as supplementary information in the back of the report. The information
presented in these statements can be compared to the governmental activities information in the government-wide
statements. The reconciliation at the end of the fund financial statements details the relationship between the two
types of financial statements.
Proprietary funds fall into two categories: enterprise funds and internal service funds. All proprietary funds are
prepared on the accrual basis of accounting and are used to account for business-type activities. Enterprise fund
statements present the same information that is in the government-wide statements for business-type activities, but
in greater detail. The City of Salina currently operates four enterprise funds: Sanitation, Solid Waste Disposal, Golf
Course, and Water and Sewer. Internal service funds are used to account for the cost of operations shared by
various departments of the City. The city operates three internal service funds. Two of these are for self-insurance
activity: Workers Compensation Reserve and Health Insurance. The remaining accounts for the Central Garage
operation. A combining statement for these internal service funds can be found in the supplementary information
following the notes to the financial statements.
Fiduciary funds are used by the City to account for resources held by the City for a third party. Agency funds are a
special class of fiduciary fund in which liabilities always equal assets, and thus there is no net position. The City of
Salina operates twelve agency funds. Schedules for these funds may be viewed in the supplementary section of this
report.
Permanent funds are used to report resources that are legally restricted to the extent that only earnings, not principal,
may be used. Permanent funds operated by the City include the Citizenship Trust, Cemetery and Mausoleum
Endowments, and the Tri-centennial Commission fund.
Notes to the Financial Statements
The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of the basic financial statements since they contain valuable
additional information necessary for gaining a complete understanding of the City’s financial statements.

Other Information
In addition to the basic financial statements and the notes described above, this report also presents the general fund
and major special revenue fund’s budgetary statements as required supplementary information directly following the
notes to the basic financial statements. The combining statements for the non-major funds are shown after the
required supplementary information. Finally, the statistical section includes selected statistical data about the City’s
operations and economy.
The City as a Whole
This section will identify, discuss, and analyze significant differences and trends that will enhance the reader’s
understanding of the City’s financial position.
Tax Base and Economy
The City of Salina relies on three major groups of revenues to support its operations. Each of these revenue streams
has a different revenue base. In declining order of magnitude, they are charges for services, sales taxes, and
property taxes. Sales taxes and property taxes apply primarily to governmental activities, while charges for services
apply to both governmental (20%) and business-type (80%) activities.
Charges for services account for about 43% ($37.2 million) of the City’s revenue stream. Charges for service
depend on both the rate that is set for the activity, as well as the volume of services provided. Significant services
include water and wastewater fees, sanitation and landfill fees, licenses and permits, inspection fees and golf course
fees. Charges for services remained flat from the prior year with the sanitation fund increasing $319K (10.0%), water
and sewer fund increasing $306K (1.5%) and governmental activities decreasing $700K in public safety. The
increase in charges for services in the sanitation fund and the increase in the water and sewer fund are a result of an
increase in user fees.
Sales taxes are the next largest component of the revenue mix, providing 25.7% ($22.7 million) of the total
revenues. The City receives a 1.25% City-wide sales tax, and also a portion of the County-wide 1% sales tax. Forty-
four percent, (a rate of .75%) of the City-wide sales tax is required to be used for special purposes. The remaining
.5%, along with the City portion of the County-wide tax is available for general purposes.
The City is affected by the formula used to distribute the County-wide sales tax among participating jurisdictions (only
Cities and the County participate, School and other special districts do not). The formula is based, in part, on the
property tax efforts of each jurisdiction. As the portion of the overlapping levy attributable to the City of Salina
changes so does the City’s allocated portion of the County-wide sales tax. This change is recognized bi-annually
and can affect the overall allocation of the City’s portion of the County-wide sales tax. In 2019, this allocation
increased slightly which did not have a significant impact on the tax revenues.
In 2008, Salina voters approved an increase of the special purpose .25% tax to a .40% tax. The extended tax was to
sunset March 31, 2019. The tax was also modestly re-purposed, for Capital and Economic Development purposes
only, as well as retaining a property tax stabilization component. In May 2017, Salina voters approved an increase in
the special purpose .40% tax to a .75% tax (thus repealing the 2008 increase). This change became effective
October 1, 2017 for twenty years.
Property taxes are the third major component of the revenue mix, accounting for 15.6% ($13.8 million) of total
revenues. Property taxes consist of two components: Real estate and personal property taxes which are
determined by the mill levy set by the city and the assessed value of the property; and motor vehicle taxes which are
established by a countywide average tax rate and the assessed value of the vehicle.
Real estate assessed value increased by 4.0%. The total City mill levy increased by 8.6%. The overlapping levy
increased in 2019 by 3.3%.
Personal property value continued to slide, presumably as a result of removing business equipment from the tax
base. Personal property value has now dropped to $9.3 million from its peak of $39.7 million in 2007. At the 2019
tax rate, this exemption is equivalent to over $857K in annual lost revenue.

Motor vehicle value increased 4.6%. Motor vehicle taxes are distributed based on a formula using prior year’s tax
effort (similar to the Countywide Sales Tax Distribution).

Comparative Property Values and Tax Levy Rates
The unemployment rate in Salina decreased slightly from 3.3% at the end of 2018 to 2.9% at the end of 2019,
reflecting general economic conditions. This is still slightly below the statewide and significantly below the national
unemployment rate. The total labor force decreased slightly to 30,094 from 30,174 in 2018.
In 2019, the top ten property taxpayers accounted for 10.05% of total assessed value. This is less concentrated than
ten years ago (at 14.70%).
Statement of Net Position
Net position may, over time, provide an indicator of a government’s financial position. In the case of the City of
Salina, assets and deferred outflows of resources exceeded liabilities by $231.9 million at December 31, 2019. This
represents an increase in net assets of $8.1 million over 2018. A comparative Condensed Statement of Net Position

The largest segment of the City’s net position reflects its investment in capital assets (land, buildings, streets and
drainage facilities, utility plant, vehicles, equipment, etc.), less any debt used to acquire those assets that is still
outstanding. These assets are used to provide services to citizens. As a result, resources required to retire related
debt cannot come from liquidation of the asset. Such resources generally must be provided from other sources, such
as future taxes or user charges.
A small portion of net position is restricted for debt service and permanent funds. The remainder (unrestricted) of net
position may be used to meet the City’s obligations to citizens and creditors.
In 2019, the amount of net investment in capital assets increased by $7.6 million. Amount restricted for debt service
decreased by $853 thousand. Unrestricted increased by $1.3 million. Outside of these changes, 2019 resulted in a
$8.1 million increase to the net position.
Total liabilities increased in governmental activities and increased in business-type activities. In governmental
activities, current liabilities decreased, and non-current liabilities increased primarily due to an increase general
obligation bonds.

Management Discussion and Analysis
Year Ended December 31, 2019
Governmental Activities. Charges for services attributable to governmental activities totaled $9.7 million, and
operating grants for those purposes were $4.5 million. Charges for services decreased slightly and capital grants
increased from the prior year, while operating grants decreased. The balance was funded by general revenues.
Sales taxes accounted for $22.7 million of general revenues, with property taxes providing $13.8 million. The net
position increased by $4.9 million as a result of governmental activities. This increase was primarily related to the
increase in sales and other taxes.
Total expenses for governmental activities for the year ending December 31, 2019 were $59.5 million compared to
$59.1 million in 2018. Governmental activities represent 75%of the City’s total expenses. The largest element of
governmental activity expense was public safety, accounting for 32% of the total.
Business Type Activities. Business-type activities are primarily supported by user charges, with a very small amount
coming from investment and miscellaneous revenues. Total expenses for business-type activities for the year were
$20.3 million, or 24% of the City’s total expenses. The majority of this expense ($14.3 million) is attributable to water
and sewer operations, with the other activities costing a combined total of $6.0 million. Net position increased by $3.2
million. This increase was primarily related to the increase in water and sewer fund revenues and a decrease in
water and sewer fund expenses.

Total governmental fund balances decreased by $3.3 million. The reasons for these changes are varied. The
Schilling Capital Improvement Fund, which was created to account for U.S. Government and other funds received for
the abatement of groundwater contamination, continues to decrease as the City uses funds previously distributed.
The Capital Projects Fund decrease was largely the result of the use of funds to fund capital outlays on projects. The
SFH QalicB fund was created to account for funds for the Salina Field House.

Budgetary Highlights
The objective of budgetary controls is to ensure compliance with legal provisions embodied in the annual
appropriated budget approved by the City Commission. The legal level of budgetary control is maintained at the fund
level, in accordance with State Statutes. Management control is maintained at the departmental level. Within the
departments, considerable discretion is permitted. The City uses an encumbrance accounting system, in which
estimated purchase orders are recorded prior to the release of purchase orders to vendors. Open purchase orders
are reported as reservations of budgetary basis fund balances at December 31, 2019. Formal budgetary
amendments are limited to those circumstances in which the need is perceived to alter the total fund budget. Re-
allocation among departments or line items are not typically recorded as budgetary amendments.
However, in addition to formal amendments, departments within the City are allowed to transfer budget between line
items within a department. Budgets may also be transferred from department to department within each fund. As a
result of these transfers, the original budget and the final budgets may not be the same for departments within a
fund.

Total Net Change In Fund Balances - Governmental Funds [3,313,728]$
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the
statement of activities are different because
Capital outlays to purchase or build assets are reported in governmental funds
as expenditures. However, for governmental activities those costs are shown
in the statement of net position and allocated over their estimated useful lives
as annual depreciation expenses in the statement of activities. This is the
amount by which capital outlays exceeds depreciation in the period.
Gain/[Loss] on sale of assets [8,190]
Capital outlays 17,835,539
Depreciation expense [6,240,802] 11,586,547
Interest on long-term debt in the statement of activities differs from the amount
reported in the governmental funds because interest is recorded as an
expenditure in the funds when it is due, and thus requires the use of current
financial resources. In the statement of activities, however, interest expense
is recognized as the interest accrues, regardless of when it is due. This is
the amount by which interest decreased. 29,485
An internal service fund is used by the city's management to charge the
costs of certain activities to the individual funds. The revenues and expenses
of certain internal service fund is reported with governmental activities. 1,597,174
Certain intrafund transactions have been eliminated between the City's
primary funds and the QALICB blended component unit. [834,660]
Some expenses reported in the statement of activities, such as compensated
absences and other post employment benefits, do not require the use of current
financial resources and therefore are not reported as expenditures in
governmental funds.[29,980]
Pension payments are reported as expenditures in the governmental funds and
do not affect the statement of net activities. [999,728]
Bond, temporary note, loan and lease proceeds are other financing sources in the
governmental funds, but they increase long-term liabilities in the statement of net
position and do not affect the statement of activities. 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 activities. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the
treatment of long-term debt and related items. [17,550,023]
Repayment of bond principal and bond issuance costs is an expenditure
in the governmental funds, but it reduces long-term liabilities in the statement
of net position and does not affect the statement of activities.14,417,265

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The City of Salina, Kansas (the City) is a municipal corporation governed by a mayor as part of a five-member
commission. These financial statements present the City and its component units, entities for which the
government is considered to be financially accountable. Each discretely presented component unit is reported
in a separate column in the government wide statements (see note below for descriptions) to emphasize that
it is legally separated from the government. The blended component unit is reported as a governmental fund
of the City (see note below for description) to emphasize that it is a part of the city.
Discretely Presented Component Units
City of Salina Airport Authority - The Salina Airport Authority was created for the purpose of accepting as
surplus property portions of the former Schilling A.F.B that was closed by the United States Department of
Defense in June 1965. One of the primary functions of the Airport Authority is to facilitate the continued growth
of jobs and payroll at the Airport Industrial Center. The Airport Authority is managed and controlled by a five-
member Board of Directors appointed by the Salina City Commission. Any director may be removed by a
majority vote of the Salina City Commission. The Airport Authority’s basic mill levy (up to 3 mills) requires the
approval of the City Commission. The Commission must also approve the issuance of general obligation debt
by the Airport Authority. The Airport Authority has a December 31 fiscal year end.
Housing Authority of the City of Salina - The purpose of the Housing Authority of the City of Salina (Housing
Authority) is to administer Public Housing Programs authorized by the United States Housing Act of 1937. The
Mayor of the City of Salina appoints the governing board. The City Commission may remove commissioners
of the Housing Authority. The City must issue revenue bonds for the Housing Authority. The financial liability
of the Housing Authority is essentially supported by the operating and debt service subsidies received under
contract from the Federal government. The Housing Authority has a June 30 fiscal year end. Information in
the accompanying financial statements covers the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
Blended Component Unit
Salina Field House Qualified Active Low-Income Community Business, Inc. (SFH QalicB) - SFH QalicB was
created to function as a qualified low-income community business, as defined in Section 45D(d)(2) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986 for the purpose of providing an indoor sports facility in the downtown corridor
of the City of Salina. The purpose of the facility is to cater to local residents as well as host regional sports
tournaments with the anticipation of becoming a regional destination for youth athletics. This mix of
participation is expected to provide the most consistent visitation and tourism for the downtown district. The
SFH QalicB is managed and controlled by a five-member Board of Directors appointed by the Salina City
Commission. The field house is staffed by City of Salina employees. SFH QalicB has a December 31 fiscal
year end. SFH QalicB is a not-for-profit organization exempt from income tax under Section 50l(c)(3) of the
Internal Revenue Code and is exempt from similar state and local taxes.
Complete financial statements for each of the individual component units may be obtained at the entity’s
administrative offices.

Joint Ventures
The City of Salina also participates with Saline County in one joint venture. The City and County organized
the Salina County-City Building Authority to acquire, operate and maintain facilities for the administrative offices
of both governments. The primary governments each have an ongoing financial responsibility for the joint
venture. Separate financial statements are available from the governing board of the joint venture.

B. Government-wide and fund financial statements
The statement of net position and the statement of activities report information on all of the nonfiduciary
activities of the primary government and its component units. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity
has been removed from these statements. Exceptions to this general rule are charges between the City’s
governmental and business-type activities. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and
program revenues reported for the various functions concerned. 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. Likewise, the primary government is reported
separately from certain legally separate component units for which the primary government is financially
accountable.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function are offset
by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are specifically associated with a service, program or
department and therefore clearly identifiable to a particular function. Program revenues include charges paid
by the recipient of the goods or services offered by the program and grants and contributions that are restricted
to meeting the operational requirements of a particular program. Taxes and other items, which are not
classified as program revenues,are presented as general revenues of the city.
Separate financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds and fiduciary funds, even
though the latter are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual funds are
reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements. Nonmajor funds are aggregated and presented
in a single column in the fund financial statements.
C.Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of 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. Revenues are recorded when earned and
expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property
taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized
as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
33
CITY OF SALINA, KANSAS
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2019
Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus
and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable
and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or
soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to
be available if they are collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally
are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt service expenditures, as
well as expenditures related to certain compensated absences and claims and judgments are recognized when
the obligations are expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources.
Property taxes and interest associated with the current fiscal period are all considered to be susceptible to
accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal period. Entitlements and shared
revenues are recorded at the time of receipt or earlier if the susceptible to accrual criteria are met. Expenditure-
driven grants are recognized as revenue when the qualifying expenditures have been incurred and all other
grant requirements have been met.
Proprietary fund type operating statements present increases (revenues) and decreases (expenses) in net
position. Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating
revenues and expenses generally result from providing goods and services in connection with a proprietary
fund’s ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the City’s proprietary funds are charges to
customers for sales and services. Operating expenses for enterprise funds and internal service funds include
the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenue and
expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.
The internal service funds account for risk management, worker’s compensation, health insurance, central
garage and information services that are provided to other departments or agencies of the government, or to
other governments, on a cost-reimbursement basis.
Agency funds are custodial in nature and do not measure results of operations or have a measurement focus.
Agency funds do however use the accrual basis of accounting. Agency funds are used to account for assets
held as an agent for individuals, other governmental units, private organizations and/or other funds.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
General Fund -To account for resources traditionally associated with government, which are not required
legally,or by sound financial management to be accounted for in another fund.
Tourism and Convention Fund - To account for transient guest tax revenues, which are specifically restricted
to promotion and tourism activities.
Special Gas Fund - To account for the City's share of motor fuel tax revenues, which are legally restricted to
the maintenance,or improvement of streets within the City.
Sales Tax Capital Fund - To account for 58% of the 1.25 cent sales tax designated for capital, debt, and human
services purposes.
Schilling Capital Improvement Fund - To account for the funding provided by U.S. Government and Public
Entities and the remedial investigation, feasibility study and expenditures necessary to abate groundwater
contamination beneath the property formerly identified as Schilling Air Force Base.

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
December 31, 2019
Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation (Continued)
Debt Service Fund - To account for the accumulation of resources and payment of general obligation bond
principal and interest from governmental resources and special assessment bond principal and interest from
special assessment levies when the City is obligated in some manner for the payment.
Capital Projects Fund - To account for the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities other than
those financed by proprietary funds and trust funds.
SFH QalicB Fund - To account for the activities of Salina Field House Qualified Active Low-Income Community
Business, Inc. as a component unit blended into the financial statements.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds:
Sanitation Fund - To account for the operations of the City's refuse collection service.
Solid Waste Disposal Fund - To account for the activities of the City's landfill.
Golf Course Fund - To account for the operations of the municipal golf course.
Water and Sewer Fund - To account for the activities of the City's water and sewer operations.
D. Assets, Liabilities, Fund Balance, and Net Position
1.Pooled cash and investments
The City maintains a cash and investment pool that is available for use by all funds managed by the city. Each
fund type’s portion of this pool is displayed in the financial statements as “Cash and Investments.” The city’s
cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits and short-term investments
with original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition. Investments in the Kansas
Municipal Pool are carried at fair value.
Cash balances from all funds are invested to the extent available in certificates of deposit and other authorized
investments. Investments with maturity dates greater than three months are stated separately. Earnings from
these investments, unless specifically designated, are allocated monthly to the investing fund based on the
percentage of funds invested to total investments. All investments are carried at fair value.
2.Receivables and Payables
Transactions between funds that are representative of lending/borrowing arrangements outstanding at the end
of the year are referred to as either “interfund receivables/payables” (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans)
or “advances to/from other funds” (i.e., the non-current portion of interfund loans). All other outstanding
balances between funds are reported as “due to/from other funds.”
Accounts Receivable. The City records revenues when services are provided. All receivables are shown net
of an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Property taxes receivable. Collection of current year property tax by the County Treasurer is not completed,
apportioned or distributed to the various subdivisions until the succeeding year, such procedure being in
conformity with governing state statutes. Consequently, current year property taxes receivable are not available
as a resource that can be used to finance the current year operations of the City and, therefore, are not
susceptible to accrual. Accruals of uncollected current year property taxes are offset by deferred revenue and
are identical to the adopted budget for 2020. It is not practicable to apportion delinquent taxes held by the
County Treasurer at the end of the accounting period, and further, the amounts thereof are not material in
relationship to the financial statements taken as a whole.

2. Receivables and Payables (Continued)
The determination of assessed valuations and the collection of property taxes for all political subdivisions in
the State of Kansas are the responsibility of the various counties. The County Appraiser annually determines
assessed valuations on January 1 and the County Clerk spreads the annual assessment on the tax rolls. The
County Treasurer is the tax collection agent for all taxing entities within the County. In accordance with state
statutes, property taxes levied during the current year are a revenue source to be used to finance the budget
of the ensuing year. Property taxes are levied and liens against property are placed on November 1 of the
year prior to the fiscal year for which they are budgeted. Payments are due November 1, becoming delinquent,
with penalty, December 21. Payments of 50% are accepted through December 20, with the second 50% then
being due on or before May 10 of the following year. This procedure eliminates the need to issue tax
anticipation notes since funds will be on hand prior to the beginning of each fiscal year. The City Treasurer
draws down all available funds from the County Treasurer’s office in two-month intervals. Taxes remaining
due and unpaid at February 15 and July 1 are subject to collection procedures prescribed in state statutes.
3. Inventories and Prepaid Items
Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method. The costs of governmental fund-type
inventories are recorded as expenditures when consumed.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid
items.
4. Capital Assets
Capital assets, which include property, plant, equipment and infrastructure assets, are reported in the
applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements.
Capital assets are defined by the government as assets with an initial, individual cost of more than $5,000 and
an estimated useful life in excess of two years. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated
historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value
at the date of donation. Capital assets used in governmental fund types of the City are recorded at cost or
estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at their estimated
fair value at the date of donation.
The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the assets or materially extend
assets lives are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred
during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type is included in the capitalized value of the asset
constructed, net of interest earned on the invested proceeds over the same period.
Property, plant and equipment of the primary government, are depreciated using the straight-line method over
the following estimated useful lives:
Assets Years
Buildings 50
Other equipment 5 -15
Vehicles 6 -10
Infrastructure 30 -50

5. Compensated Absences
It is the City’s policy to permit employees to accumulate earned but unused vacation and sick pay benefits.
All employees of the City, except temporary and part time employees, may accumulate sick leave at a rate of
8 or 11 hours per month depending on their work duty schedule. There is no limit on the amount of sick leave
that can be accumulated. Employees with more than five years of service with the City are paid for one-third
of their accumulated sick leave at their current wage scale upon termination of employment in good standing.
In 2001, a limited buy back policy was instituted.
All regular employees are entitled to paid vacation time. Such leave is granted each year of employment.
Employees must use 50% of leave accrued each calendar year and an employee's maximum accrued vacation
leave balance cannot exceed 250 hours (or 350 hours for employees working 24-hour shifts). Employees are
paid for all accumulated vacation leave at their current wage scale upon termination of employment.
Vested or accumulated vacation leave that is expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial
resources is reported as an expenditure and a fund liability in the government fund financial statements that
will pay it. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for
example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements. Vested or accumulated vacation leave of the
business-type funds and government wide financial statements are recorded as an expense and liability of
those funds as the benefits accrue to employees. A liability is recorded for accumulated rights to receive sick
pay benefits that are payable upon termination of employment.
The General Fund, Bicentennial Center Fund, Central Garage Fund, Sanitation Fund, Solid Waste Fund, Golf
Course Fund, and Water and Sewer Fund have been used in prior years to liquidate the liability for
compensated absences.
6. Temporary Notes
Upon authorization for the issuance of general obligation bonds for certain improvements, Kansas law permits
the temporary financing of such improvements by the issuance of temporary notes. Temporary notes issued
may not exceed the aggregate amount of bonds authorized, are interest bearing and have a maturity date not
later than four years from the date of issuance of such temporary notes. Temporary notes outstanding are
retired from the proceeds of the sale of general obligation bonds.
7. Long-term Obligations
In the government-wide financial statements, and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements, long-
term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities,
business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts, as
well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the bonds using the effective interest method.
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 fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as
issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing
sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on
debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual
debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.

8.Fund Balances
In the fund financial statements, governmental funds report fund balance in the following classifications:
nonspendable, restricted, committed, assigned and unassigned. Nonspendable fund balance includes
amounts that cannot be spent because they are either not in spendable form or legally or contractually required
to be maintained intact. Restricted fund balance indicates that constraints have been placed on the use of
resources either by being externally imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other
governments or imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation. Committed fund
balances include amounts that can only be used for specific purposes pursuant to constraints imposed by
formal action of the city commission. Assigned fund balances include amounts that are constrained by the City
management’s intent to be used for specific purposes but are neither restricted nor committed. Unassigned
fund balance represents fund balance that has not been assigned to other funds and that has not been
restricted, committed, or assigned to specific purposes within the General Fund. When an expenditure is
incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balance is available restricted amounts
are considered to be spent first. When an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which committed, assigned,
or unassigned fund balance is available, the following is the order in which resources will be expended:
committed, assigned and unassigned.
The following is the detail for fund balance classifications in the financial statements:

Note 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
D. Assets, Liabilities, Fund Balance, and Net Position (Continued)
9. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for deferred
outflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents
a consumption of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow
of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The City reports a deferred charge on bond issuance reported
in the government-wide statement of net position. A deferred charge on bond issuance results from the
difference in the carrying value of the debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized
over the life of the debt. Additionally, changes in the pension and OPEB plan liability proportion and
assumptions, net difference between projected and actual earnings on pension plan and OPEB plan
investments and differences between pension and OPEB plan liability expected and actual experience are
reported as deferred outflows of resources in the government activities.
In addition to liabilities, the statement of financial position will sometimes report a separate section for
deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial statement element, deferred inflows of resources,
represents an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as
an inflow of resources (revenue) until that time. Unavailable revenue – property taxes, is reported in the
governmental funds balance sheet and the governmental activities in the government-wide statement of net
position. Additionally, differences between expected and actual experience, changes in assumptions, and
changes in the pension liability and OPEB plan proportion are reported as deferred inflows. These amounts
are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period that the amounts become available.
10. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported 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.
11.Net Position
Net position represents the difference between assets and liabilities. Net investment in capital assets consists
of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowings
used for the acquisition, construction or improvement of those assets. Net position is reported as restricted
when there are limitations imposed on their use either through the enabling legislation adopted by the City or
through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors or laws or regulations of other governments.
Note 2. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY
A. Budgetary Information
Kansas statutes require that an annual operating budget be legally adopted for the general fund, special
revenue funds (unless specifically exempted by statute), debt service fund, and enterprise funds.
The statutes provide for the following sequence and timetable in the adoption of the legal annual operating
budget:
1. Preparation of the budget for the succeeding year on or before August 1.
2. Publication in local newspaper of the proposed budget and notice of public hearing on the budget on or
before August 5.
3. Public hearing on or before August 15, but at least ten days after publication of notice of hearing.
4. Adoption of the final budget on or before August 25.

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2. STEWARDSHIP, COMPLIANCE AND ACCOUNTABILITY (Continued)
A. Budgetary Information (Continued)
The statutes allow the governing body to increase the originally adopted budget for previously unbudgeted
increases in revenue other than ad valorem property taxes. To do this, a notice of public hearing to amend the
budget must be published in the local newspaper. At least ten days after publication the hearing may be held
and the governing body may amend the budget at that time. The 2019 budget was amended for the Sales Tax
Economic Development, Tourism and Convention, Special Alcohol and Health Insurance funds.
The statutes permit management to transfer budgeted amounts between line items within an individual fund.
However, such statutes prohibit expenditures in excess of the total amount of the adopted budget of
expenditures of individual funds. Budget comparison statements are presented for each fund showing actual
receipts and expenditures compared to legally budgeted receipts and expenditures.
All legal annual operating budgets are prepared using the statutory basis of accounting, in which, revenues are
recognized when cash is received, and expenditures include disbursements, accounts payable, and
encumbrances. Encumbrances are commitments by the municipality for future payments and are supported
by a document evidencing the commitment, such as a purchase order or contract. All unencumbered
appropriations (legal budget expenditure authority) lapse at year end.
A legal operating budget is not required for capital projects funds, the SFH QalicB fund, non-major debt service
funds, trust funds, and the following special revenue funds: Community Development Revolving, Downtown
TIF District #1, South 9th CID, State Grants, 911 Communications, Kenwood Cove Capital, Special Law
Enforcement, Police Grants, Federal Grants, DARE Donations, War Memorial Maintenance, Federal CARE
Grant, Police Department Federal Forfeiture, Homeowners’ Assistance, Private Grants and Animal Shelter
Donations Funds. A legal operating budget is not required for the following Enterprise funds: Solid Waste
Disposal, Water and Sewer, Sanitation and Golf Course Funds. A legal operating budget is also not required
for the Internal Service funds. Actual to budget comparisons for these funds that present budgets to the
Commissioners are shown strictly for informational purposes.
Spending in funds, which are not subject to the legal annual operating budget requirements are controlled by
federal regulations, other statutes, or by the use of internal spending limits established by the governing body.
B. Legal Debt Margin
The City is subject to the municipal finance law of the state of Kansas which limits the bonded debt (exclusive
of revenue bonds and special assessment bonds) the city may have outstanding to 30 percent of the assessed
value of all tangible taxable property within the city, as certified to the county clerk on the proceeding August
25.At December 31, 2019, the statutory limit for the City was $152,724,804, providing a debt margin of
$85,059,351.

Note 4. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS
A. Deposits and Investments
The City’s cash is considered to be active funds by management and is invested according to KSA 9-1401.
The statute requires that banks eligible to hold active funds have a main or branch bank in the county in which
the City is located or in a county adjacent to the City and the banks provide an acceptable rate for active funds.
Various City investments are considered to be idle funds by management and are invested according to KSA
12-1675. The statute requires that the City invest its idle funds in only temporary notes of the City, bank
certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements, and if eligible banks do not offer an acceptable rate for the
funds: U.S. Treasury bills or notes or the Municipal Investment Pool (KMIP). Maturities of the above
investments may not exceed two years by statute.
Some of the City’s investments are of bond proceeds invested pursuant to KSA 10-131. This statute allows
additional investment authority beyond that of KSA 12-1675. Investments of bond proceeds may follow KSA
12-1675 or include other investments such as the KMIP, direct obligations of the U.S. government or any
agency thereof, investment agreements with a financial institution the obligations of which at the time of
investment are rated in either of the three highest rating categories by Moody’s investors service or Standard
and Poor’s corporation, and various other investments as specified in KSA 10-131.
At December 31, 2019, the City has the following investments:
Investment Type Fair Value Rating
Kansas Municipal Investment Pool 317,303$ S&P AAAf/S1+
Total fair value 317,303$
The municipal investment pool is under the oversight of the Pooled Money Investment Board. The board is
comprised of the State Treasurer and four additional members appointed by the State Governor. The board
reports annually to the Kansas legislature. State pooled monies may be invested in direct obligations of, or
obligations that are insured as to principal and interest by the U.S. government or any agency thereof, with
maturities up to four years. No more than 10 percent of those funds may be invested in mortgage-backed
securities. In addition, the State pool may invest in repurchase agreements with Kansas banks or with primary
government securities dealers.

Note 4. DETAILED NOTES ON ALL FUNDS (Continued)
A. Deposits and Investments (Continued)
The City’s investment policy provides direction on concentration risk. The City policy states that funds shall be
diversified to reduce the extent of losses due to having an unbalanced portfolio in terms of maturities,
instrument type, and issuers. Therefore, portfolio maturities shall be staggered to avoid undue concentration
of assets in a specific maturity sector. Liquidity, free of market risk, shall be assured through practices insuring
that the next disbursement date and payroll date are covered through maturing investments, marketable U.S.
Treasury Bills, the Municipal Investment Pool, or money market accounts.
Default risk shall be minimized by requiring that all security purchases occur on a delivery vs. payment basis,
and that all securities are adequately collateralized.
Risk of market price volatility shall be controlled through the adoption of a "buy and hold" strategy whereby the
City holds each investment to maturity, coupled with maintenance of an adequate liquidity position to insure
the ability to meet normal anticipated cash flow needs.
When advantageous, it is allowable to sell investments to realize a gain due to price fluctuations; however,
such transactions shall not be a part of the normal course of business.
The City recognizes that investment risks can result from issuer defaults, market price changes or various
technical complications leading to temporary illiquidity. Portfolio diversification is employed as a way to control
risk due to issuer default. In the event of a default by a specific issuer, the Director of Finance and
Administration shall review, and, if appropriate, proceed to liquidate securities having comparable credit risks.
Custodial credit risk is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City’s deposits may not be returned to it.
The City’s deposit policy for custodial credit risk require that the depository banks will maintain 100% security
in the form of FDIC coverage and pledged collateral according to KSA 9-1402. As of December 31, 2019 the
City’s deposits were considered fully secured.
Restricted cash is comprised of a construction account, an interest reserve account (the "Interest Reserve"),
and an expense reserve account (the "Operating Reserve") related to the SFH QalicB blended component
unit. The Interest Reserve and the Operating Reserve accounts are available as part of the loans payable
financing (see Note 4E). As of December 31, 2019, the balance of the construction account, Interest
Reserve, and Operating Reserve was $495,071, $286,100, and $126,516, respectively.

Special assessments. As provided by Kansas statutes, projects financed in part by special assessments are
financed through general obligation bonds of the City and are retired from the debt service fund. Special
assessments paid prior to the issuance of bonds are recorded as revenue in the appropriate project. Special
assessments received after the issuance of bonds are recorded as revenue in the debt service fund. The special
assessments are not recorded as revenue when levied against the respective property owners as such amounts
are not available to finance current year operations. The special assessment debt is a contingent obligation of
the City to the extent of property owner defaults, which have historically been immaterial.
Premises lease.On July 27, 2016, SFH QalicB entered into a lease agreement with the City for the use of
the Salina Field House, as defined in the Net Lease agreement (the "Property"), under a direct financing

the first day of each December thereafter through December 1, 2046, annual payments are due, in advance,
as specified in the Net Lease agreement.

Sales tax and Revenue (STAR) Bonds.STAR Bonds are authorized to be issued pursuant to K.S.A. 12-17, 160,
et seq., as amended (the STAR Bond Act). The STAR Bond Act provides a form of tax increment financing that
enables the issuance of bonds payable from certain State and local sales and compensating use tax revenues
and transient guest tax revenues generated from STAR bond projects constructed within a STAR bond project
district. To implement STAR bond financing, a local government must adopt a resolution that specifies a
proposed STAR bond project district’s boundary and describes the overall district plan, hold a public hearing on
the district and plan, and pass a resolution that establishes the STAR bond project district. Additionally, there
may be one or more projects within a STAR bond district.
In accordance with the STAR Bond Act, the City has no liability for payment of bonds in the event that revenues
received from sources noted above are inadequate to pay the debt incurred with the issuance of the STAR
bonds.

Note 5. OTHER INFORMATION
A. Defined Benefit Pension Plan
Description of Pension Plan. The City participates in a cost-sharing multiple-employer pension plan (Pension
Plan), as defined in Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for
Pension Plans. The Pension Plan is administered by the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System
(KPERS), a body corporate and an instrumentality of the State of Kansas. KPERS provides benefit provisions
to the following statewide pension groups under one plan, as provided by K.S.A. 74, article 49:
Public employees, which includes:
o State/School employees
o Local employees
Police and Firemen
Judges
Substantially all public employees in Kansas are covered by the Pension Plan. Participation by local political
subdivisions is optional, but irrevocable once elected.
Those employees participating in the Pension Plan for the City are included in the Local employees group
and the Kansas Police and Firemen group.
KPERS issues a stand-alone comprehensive annual financial report, which is available on the KPERS
website at www.kpers.org.
Benefits. Benefits are established by statute and may only be changed by the State Legislature. Members
(except Police and Firemen) with ten or more years of credited service, may retire as early as age 55 (Police
and Firemen may be age 50 with 20 years of credited service), with an actuarially reduced monthly benefit.
Normal retirement is at age 65, age 62 with ten years of credited service, or whenever a member’s combined
age and years of service equal 85. Police and Firemen normal retirement ages are age 60 with 15 years of
credited service, age 55 with 20 years, age 50 with 25 years, or any age with 36 years of service.
Monthly retirement benefits are based on a statutory formula that includes final average salary and years of
service. When ending employment, members may withdraw their contributions from their individual
accounts, including interest. Members who withdraw their accumulated contributions lose all rights and
privileges of membership. For all pension coverage groups, the accumulated contributions and interest are
deposited into and disbursed from the membership accumulated reserve fund as established by K.S.A. 74-
4922.
Members choose one of seven payment options for their monthly retirement benefits. At retirement a member
may receive a lump-sum payment of up to 50% of the actuarial present value of the member’s lifetime benefit.
His or her monthly retirement benefit is then permanently reduced based on the amount of the lump sum.
Benefit increases, including ad hoc post-retirement benefit increases, must be passed into law by the Kansas
Legislature. Benefit increases are under the authority of the Legislature and the Governor of the State of
Kansas.
The 2012 Legislature made changes affecting new hires, current members and employers. A new KPERS 3
cash balance retirement plan for new hires starting January 1, 2015, was created. Normal retirement age for
KPERS 3 is 65 with five years of service or 60 with 30 years of service. Early retirement is available at age 55
with ten years of service, with a reduced benefit. Monthly benefit options are an annuity benefit based on the
account balance at retirement.

A. Defined Benefit Pension Plan (Continued)
For all pension coverage groups, the retirement benefits are disbursed from the retirement benefit payment
reserve fund as established by K.S.A. 74-4922.
Contributions. Member contributions are established by state law and are paid by the employee according
to the provisions of Section 414(h) of the Internal Revenue Code. State law provides that the employer
contribution rates are determined based on the results of an annual actuarial valuation. The contributions
and assets of all groups are deposited in the Kansas Public Employees Retirement Fund established by
K.S.A. 74-4921. All of the retirement systems are funded on an actuarial reserve basis.
For fiscal years beginning in 1995, Kansas legislation established statutory limits on increases in contribution
rates for KPERS employers. Annual increases in the employer contribution rates related to subsequent
benefit enhancements are not subject to these limitations. The statutory cap increase over the prior year
contribution rate is 1.2% of total payroll for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
The actuarially determined employer contribution rates (not including the 1.00% contribution rate for the
Death and Disability Program) and the statutory contribution rates are as follows:
Actuarial Statutory Employer
Employer Rate Capped Rate
Local employees 8.89%8.89%
Police and Firemen 22.13%22.13%
Member contribution rates as a percentage of eligible compensation for the fiscal year 2019 are 6.00% for
Local employees and 7.15% for Police and Firemen.
Employer Allocations. Although KPERS administers one cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit
pension plan, separate (sub) actuarial valuations are prepared to determine the actuarial determined
contribution rate by group. Following this method, the measurement of the collective net pension liability,
deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and pension expense are determined
separately for each of the following groups of the plan:
State/School
Local
Police and Firemen
Judges
To facilitate the separate (sub) actuarial valuations, KPERS maintains separate accounts to identify
additions, deductions, and fiduciary net position applicable to each group. The allocation percentages
presented for each group in the schedule of employer and nonemployer allocations are applied to amounts
presented in the schedules of pension amounts by employer and nonemployer.
The allocation percentages for the City’s share of the collective pension amounts as of December 31, 2019,
are based on the ratio of its contributions to the total of the employer and nonemployer contributions of the
group for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2019.
The contributions used exclude contributions made for prior service, excess benefits and irregular payments.
At June 30, 2019, the City’s proportion for the Local employees group was 0.796%, which was an increase
of .006% from its proportion measured at June 30, 2018. At June 30, 2019, the City’s proportion for the
Police and Firemen group was 2.074%, which was a decrease of .007% from its proportion measured at
June 30, 2018.

A. Defined Benefit Pension Plan (Continued)
Net Pension Liability. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the City and its component units reported a liability
of $32,116,932 and $31,984,657, respectively, for its total proportionate share of the net pension liability for
the Local and Police and Firemen groups.
Actuarial Assumptions. The total pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of December
31, 2018, which was rolled forward to June 30, 2019, using the following actuarial assumptions:
Assumptions Rate
Price inflation 2.75%
Wage inflation 3.50%
Salary increases, including wage increases 3.5% to 12.0% including inflation
Long-term rate of return, net of investment expense, and
including price inflation 7.75%
Mortality rates were based on the RP-2014 Mortality Tables, with age setbacks and age set forwards as well
as other adjustments based on different membership groups. Future mortality improvements are anticipated
using Scale MP-2016.
The actuarial assumptions used in the December 31, 2018 valuation were based on the results of an
actuarial experience study conducted for the period of January 1, 2013, through December 31, 2015. The
experience study is dated November 18, 2016.
The long-term expected rate of return of pension plan investments was determined using a building-block
method in which best-estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of
pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are
combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of
return by the target asset allocation percentage.
Best estimates of arithmetic real rates of return for each major asset class included in the pension plan’s
target asset allocation as of June 30, 2019 are summarized in the following table:
Long-Term Expected
Asset Long-Term Allocation Real Rate of Return
Global Equity 47.00%6.85%
Fixed Income 13.00%1.25%
Yield driven 8.00%6.55%
Real Return 11.00%1.71%
Real estate 11.00%5.05%
Alternatives 8.00%9.85%
Short-term investments 2.00%-0.25%
100.00%
Discount Rate. The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.75%. The projection of
cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan members will be made
at the contractually required rate. The State, School and Local employers do not necessarily contribute the
full actuarial determined rate. Based on legislation passed in 1993, the employer contribution rates certified
by the System’s Board of Trustees for these groups may not increase by more than the statutory cap. The
expected KPERS employer statutory contribution was modeled for future years, assuming all actuarial
assumptions are met in future years. Employers contribute the full actuarial determined rate for Police &
Firemen, and Judges. Future employer contribution rates were also modeled for Police & Firemen and
Judges, assuming all actuarial assumptions are met in future years. Based on those assumptions, the
pension plan’s fiduciary net position was projected to be available to make all projected future benefit
payments of current plan members. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan
investments was applied to all periods of projected benefit payments to determine the total pension liability.

B. Deferred Compensation Plan
The City offers its employees a deferred compensation plan ("Plan") created in accordance with Internal
Revenue Code Section 457. The Plan, available to all City employees, permits them to defer a portion of their
salary until future years. The deferred compensation is not available to employees until termination, retirement,
death, or unforeseeable emergency. Plan assets are transferred to a plan agent in a custodial trust and are
not available to the claims of the City's general creditors.
C. Flexible Benefit Plan (I.R.C. Section 125)
The City Commission has adopted by resolution a salary reduction flexible benefit plan ("Plan") under Section
125 of the Internal Revenue Code. All City employees working more than 20 hours per week are eligible to
participate in the Plan beginning after two full months of employment. Each participant may elect to reduce his
or her salary to purchase benefits offered through the Plan. Benefits offered through the Plan include various
insurance and disability benefits.
D. 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; natural disasters and other events for which the City carries commercial insurance. No
significant reductions in insurance coverage from that of the prior year have occurred. Settlements have not
exceeded insurance coverage for each of the past three years.
The City has established a limited risk management program for workers’ compensation. The program covers
all City employees. Premiums are paid into the Workers’ Compensation Reserve Fund by all other funds and
are available to pay claims, claim reserves and administrative costs of the program. An excess coverage
insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of $250,000 ($350,000 for claims involving employees
classified as policemen or firemen). Incurred claims, including incurred but not reported claims, have been
accrued based primarily upon subsequent payments. Claim liabilities are calculated considering the effects of
inflation, recent claim settlement trends including frequency and amounts of payouts and other economic and
social factors. The liability for claims and judgments is reported in the Workers' Compensation Reserve Fund
because it is expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources. Of the liability, $159,754
is considered to be due within one year.
Changes in the balances of claims liabilities during the past two years are as follows:
2019 2018
Unpaid claims, January 1 238,778$ 221,913$
Incurred claims (including

Unpaid claims, December 31 311,572$ 238,778$
The City established a limited risk management program for employee health and dental insurance in 1997.
The program covers eligible City employees. Premiums are paid into the health insurance fund by all other
funds and are available to pay claims, claim reserves and administrative costs of the program. An excess
coverage insurance policy covers individual claims in excess of $50,000. Incurred claims, including incurred
but not reported claims, have been accrued based primarily upon subsequent payments. Claim liabilities are
calculated considering the effects of inflation, recent claim settlement trends including frequency and amounts
of payouts and other economic and social factors. The liability for claims and judgments is reported in the
Health Insurance Fund because it is expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources.
Therefore, all of the liability is considered to be due within one year. Changes in the balances of claims liabilities
during the past two years are as follows:

E. Contingent Liabilities
The City receives significant financial assistance from numerous federal and state governmental agencies in
the form of grants and state pass-through aid. The disbursement of funds received under these programs
generally requires compliance with terms and conditions specified in the grant agreements and is subject to
audit. Any disallowed claims resulting from such audits could become a liability of the General Fund or other
applicable funds. However, in the opinion of management, any such disallowed claims would not have a
material effect on any of the financial statements of the City at December 31, 2019.
The City is a defendant in various lawsuits. Although the outcome of these lawsuits is not presently
determinable, it is the opinion of the City's legal counsel that resolution of these matters will not have a material
adverse effect on the financial condition of the City.
F. Municipal Solid Waste Landfill
State and federal laws and regulations require the City to place a final cover on its landfill site when it stops
accepting waste, and to perform certain maintenance and monitoring functions at the site for thirty years after
closure. Although closure and postclosure care costs will be paid only near or after the date that the landfill
stops accepting waste, the City reports a portion of these closure and postclosure care costs as an operating
expense of the Solid Waste Fund in each period based on landfill capacity used as of each balance sheet date.
The $2,048,896 reported as landfill closure and postclosure care liability at December 31 represents the
cumulative amount reported to date based on the use of 28.8% of the estimated capacity of the landfill.
The City's solid waste fund will recognize the remaining estimate cost of closure and postclosure care of
$4,892,995 as the remaining estimated capacity is filled over the remaining life expectancy of 147 years.
These amounts are based on what it would cost to perform all closure and postclosure care in 2019. Actual
cost may be higher due to inflation, changes, in technology or changes in regulations. The City is required by
State and Federal laws and regulations to provide assurances of financial responsibility for closure and post-
closure care. The City has elected to utilize the Local Government Financial test promulgated by the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency (at 40 CFR 258.74(f)) and the Kansas Department of Health and
Environment to provide these assurances. Any future closure or post-closure care costs will be provided
through the normal budgeting and rate setting process, including the issuance of general obligation bonds, if
necessary.

H. Environmental Matters
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) issued a report in 1994 indicating the presence
of volatile organic compounds at levels requiring remediation at the Salina Public Water Supply Wells Site.
The City adopted a proactive Policy and Action Plan to remediate the groundwater contamination, and on
December 7, 1994, the City and KDHE entered into a Consent Order and Settlement Agreement under which
the City assumed primary responsibility for the further investigation and remediation of the groundwater
contamination. Field testing work has been completed. The necessary remediation work will be conducted
over the next several years at a yet undetermined cost to the City's Water and Sewer Fund.
The U.S. Department of Defense transferred property located at the former Schilling Air Force Base (the Base
or Site) to the Authority on or about September 9, 1966. The property is now known to contain areas of
extensive soil and groundwater contamination, which is a result of the use and disposal of chlorinated solvents
during military operations at the Base from 1942 until Base closure in 1965. The U.S. Department of Defense
is responsible for the investigation and remediation of contamination caused by military activities at current and
former military bases. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is the lead agency for the Department at
formerly used defense sites. The Corps has investigated the soil and groundwater contamination at the Site
under the regulatory oversight of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Kansas Department
of Health and Environment (KDHE). The Site is not designated as a National Priority List Superfund site, but
investigation and remediation are required to be in compliance with the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA).
Potential liability for contamination under CERCLA extends broadly to parties associated with the release or
presence of hazardous substances, including not only those entities involved with contaminant use and
disposal, but in some cases other current and former owners and operators of contaminated sites. As a current
owner of extensive amounts of property at the Site, the Authority is potentially liable under CERCLA, although
the Authority believes that it has meritorious defenses to such liability.
The Authority is considered to be a Potentially Responsible Party (PRP) for the Site, primarily due to its status
as a property owner. The Authority, City of Salina, Unified School District No. 305 and the Kansas Board of
Regents (Kansas State University Polytechnic Campus), (collectively Salina Public Entities) currently own over
90% of the nearly 4,000 acres of the Base property. No third party has asserted any claim for bodily injury or
property damage.
Beginning in August 2007, the Salina Public Entities initiated settlement negotiations with the U.S. Federal
Government. The negotiation objectives at that time included transferring the responsibility for completing the
cleanup from the U.S. to the Salina Public Entities. The local objective was to reach a settlement agreement
with the U.S. that provides the Salina Public Entities sufficient funds to complete cleanup operations over a 30-
year period.
During calendar year 2008, the Salina Public Entities, by and through its environmental consultant, prepared
a detailed Cost to Complete Estimate (CTC). The CTC preparation included consultation with the EPA and
KDHE. The Salina Public Entities’ CTC was completed in June of 2008 and submitted to the Corps.
Subsequently, on January 23, 2009, the Salina Public Entities delivered a demand letter to the Corps. The
letter demanded that settlement negotiations begin immediately with the U.S. Department of Justice. On
May 14, 2009 the Authority was notified that the Corps referred the Base demand letter to the U.S.
Department of Justice on May 12, 2009.
The Salina Public Entities delivered on or about May 10, 2010, a settlement offer and a draft of a lawsuit
complaint to the attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice. The Salina Public Entities planned to file suit
against the U.S. if the matter was not settled by the end of May 2010. The Salina Public Entities did not intend
to cut off settlement negotiations by the filing of suit, and this has been communicated to the U.S. No remedial
action plan or record of decision has been adopted by the EPA or KDHE.

On or about May 27, 2010, the Salina Public Entities filed their Complaint against the United States of America,
the United States Department of Defense and Secretary of Defense, Robert M. Gates, in his official capacity
(collectively, "Defendants"). On or about September 22, 2010, the Salina Public Entities filed their First
Amended Complaint in four counts: Count I Citizen Suit Claim Pursuant to 42 U.S.C.§ 9659(a)(2), Count II
Citizen Suit Claim Pursuant to 42 U.S.C.§ 9659(a)(1), Count III Claim for Recovery of Response Costs
Pursuant to 42 U.S.C.§ 9607(a) and Count IV Claim for Declaratory Judgment Pursuant to 42 U.S.C.§
9613(g)(2).
On or about October 6, 2010, Defendants filed their motion to dismiss and to strike, primarily with respect to
the citizen suit claims. On or about March 25, 2011, Judge Murguia entered his Memorandum and Order. The
Judge granted the Defendants' motion to dismiss Counts I and II (citizen suit claims) for lack of subject matter
jurisdiction. He also granted the Defendants' motion to dismiss the Salina Public Entities' requests for attorney
fees, with the exception of non-litigation attorney fees. He denied the Defendants' motion to strike the Salina
Public Entities' allegations of a conflict of interest. The Salina Public Entities' claims under Counts III and IV for
response costs under CERCLA 9607(a) are not affected by the Judge's rulings. The Salina Public Entities
disagree with most of the Judge's filings and, if necessary, plan to take an interlocutory appeal to the Tenth
Circuit to contest the rulings.
On or about April 22, 2011, Defendants filed their Answer to First Amended Complaint and Counterclaim
against the Salina Public Entities. Count I of the Counterclaim alleges a claim for contribution under CERCLA,
42 U.S.C.§ 9613(f)(1). Count II of the Counterclaim alleges a claim for cost recovery under CERCLA, 42
U.S.C.§ 9607(a)(1). Count II alleges costs incurred by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency of
approximately $1,838,241 as of September 30, 2007, and alleges costs incurred by the Corps of approximately
$14,915,228 as of April 17, 2009. The Salina Public Entities intend to vigorously contest the claims brought
against them and will assert, among other defenses, the third-party defense under 42 U.S.C.§ 9607(b)(3).
The parties agreed on a mediation to discuss settlement. The mediation sessions occurred in October 2011,
and the mediation discussions continued for over a year. The parties have now agreed upon a partial
settlement. The partial settlement includes payment by the U.S. in exchange for performance by the Salina
Public Entities of a remedial investigation/feasibility study through entry of a Corrective Action Decision by
KDHE (the "Work"). The present cost estimate of the Work is less than $10,000,000. The agreement is that
the U.S. will pay 90% of the cost of the Work with the Salina Public Entities responsible for payment of the
remaining 10%. It is anticipated that the agreed share of the Salina Public Entities will be paid by the City of
Salina. Also, the claims and counterclaims in the lawsuit have been dismissed without prejudice with provisions
tolling any and all statutes of limitation. No party is obligated under the settlement agreement to implement the
Corrective Action Decision upon its entry by KDHE, and the parties will either negotiate an agreement to
implement such Corrective Action Decision or refile their claims in court. The Salina Public Entities have
entered into a Consent Agreement and Final Order ("CAFO") with KDHE, which is conditioned upon the U.S.'s
payment to the City. On May 2, 2013, the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas entered its Consent
Decree. City of Salina, Kansas, et al. v. United States of America, et al., Case No. 1 0-CV -2298 CM/DJW. The
Court's Consent Decree approved the settlement among the parties. The current status is that the U.S. wire
transferred $8,426,700 to the account of the City, and the City added the share of the Salina Public Entities in
the amount of $936,300 to the account.
The Remedial Investigation (RI) portion of the CAFO scope of work was completed on or about June 18, 2018.
The Feasibility Study portion of the CAFO scope of work was completed on or about November 29, 2018.
KDHE’s draft final Corrective Action Decision (CAD) was published on or about April 8, 2019. KDHE held a
public hearing for the final CAD on or about May 1, 2019. Final comments concerning the draft final CAD were
due on or about May 8, 2019. KDHE published a final CAD on or about July 29, 2019. The KDHE CAD details
the scope of work and estimated cost for the cleanup of DoD-caused contamination at the former Schilling

The Salina Public Entities participated in three mediation sessions with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ)
and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) on November 19-21, 2019; December 10-11, 2019; and the
final subsequent to year-end to determine payment by the United States in exchange for performance by the
Salina Public Entities of the KDHE CAD. Special environmental legal counsel for the Salina Public Entities has
negotiated with the DOJ for the completion of a Consent Decree that embodies the results of the three
mediation sessions. The final draft of the Consent Decree will be considered by the Salina Public Entities in a
joint meeting scheduled for June 24, 2020. Upon approval by the U.S. District Court for the District of Kansas,
the CD will provide the Salina Public Entities funding from the United States for the Remedial Design (RD) and
Remedial Action (RA) work detailed in the KDHE CAD.
Although the claims and counterclaims in the lawsuit have been dismissed without prejudice, the City intends
to vigorously pursue its claims that the U.S. should implement the Corrective Action Decision upon its entry by
KDHE and its defenses against any claims brought against it. Based on presently known information, the City
has determined that while a possible liability exists, at this time, no reasonable estimate of the possible liability
can be made. Therefore, no liability related to that matter has been recorded.
I. Other Postemployment Healthcare Benefits
Plan Description. The City offers postemployment health insurance to retirement employees. The benefits are
provided through a single employer defined benefit postemployment healthcare plan administered by the City.
The Employee Benefit Plan (the Plan) provides medical and dental benefits to eligible early retirees and their
spouses. KSA 12-5040 requires all local governmental entities in the state that provide a group health care plan
to make participation available to all retirees and dependents until the retiree reaches the age of 65 years. No
separate financial report is issued for the Plan.
Funding Policy. The contribution requirements of plan participants and the City are established and amended
by the City. The required contribution is based on projected pay-as-you-go financing requirements. In 2019,
the City did not contribute to the plan.
At December 31, 2019, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:
Active employees 441
Retirees and covered spouses 32

J.Other Postemployment Benefits (KPERS)
Plan Description. The City participates in a multiple-employer defined benefit other postemployment benefit
(OPEB) plan (the Plan) which is administered by the Kansas Public Employees Retirement System
(KPERS). The Plan provides long-term disability benefits and a life insurance benefit for disabled members to
KPERS members, as provided by K.S.A. 74-04927. The Plan is administered through a trust held by KPERS
that is funded to pay annual benefit payments. However, because the trust’s assets are used to pay employee
benefits other than OPEB, the trust does not meet the criteria in paragraph 4 of GASB Statement No. 75,
Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions. Accordingly, the Plan
is considered to be administered on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Benefits. Benefits are established by statute and may be amended by the KPERS Board of Trustees. The Plan
provides long-term disability benefits equal to 60 percent (prior to January 1, 2006, 66 2/3 percent) of annual
compensation, offset by other benefits. Members receiving long-term disability benefits also receive credit
towards their KPERS retirement benefits and have their group life insurance coverage continued under the
waiver of premium provision.
The monthly long-term disability benefit is 60 percent of the member’s monthly compensation, with a minimum
of $100 and a maximum of $5,000. The monthly benefit is subject to reduction by deductible sources of income,
which include Social Security primary disability or retirement benefits, workers compensation benefits, other
disability benefits from any other sources by reason of employment, and earnings from any form of
employment. If the disability begins before age 60, benefits are payable while the disability continues until the
member’s 65th birthday or retirement date, whichever occurs first. If the disability begins after age 60, benefits
are payable while the disability continues, for a period of five years or until the member retires, whichever occurs
first. Benefit payments for disabilities caused or contributed to by substance abuse or non-biologically based
mental illnesses are limited to the shorter of the term of the disability or 24 months per lifetime.
The death benefit paid to beneficiaries of disabled members is 150% of the greater of 1) the member’s annual
rate of compensation at the time of disability, or 2) the members previous 12 months of compensation at the
time of the last date on payroll. If the member has been disabled for five or more years, the annual
compensation or salary rate at the time of death will be indexed using the consumer price index, less one
percentage point, to compute the death benefit. If a member is diagnosed as terminally ill with a life expectancy
of 12 months or less, the member may be eligible to receive up to 100% of the death benefit rather than having
the benefit paid to the beneficiary. If a member retires or disability benefits end, the member may convert the
group life insurance coverage to an individual insurance policy.

The discount rate was based on the bond buyer general obligation 20-bond municipal index.
Mortality rates were based on the RP 2014 Mortality Tables, with age setbacks and age set forwards as well
as other adjustments based on different membership groups. Future mortality improvements are anticipated
using Scale MP-2019. The actuarial assumptions used in the December 31, 2018 valuation were based on
the results of an actuarial experience study for the period of January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2015.

K. Tax Abatements
In 2019, the City of Salina participated in real property tax abatements for five local companies. Property tax
abatements are authorized under Kansas state statutes K.S.A. 12-1740 et seq. and K.S.A. 79-201a and subject
to City policy.
The City provides property tax abatements to encourage existing industry to expand, assist new business start-
ups, recruit new companies from out-of-state or internationally, encourage high technology and research based
businesses, encourage training and development of Salina area employees, and encourage location and
retention of businesses which are good "corporate citizens" that will add to the quality of life in the community
through leadership and support of civic and philanthropic organizations. Property tax abatements reduce ad
valorem property taxes. The percentage of reduction ranges from 40.5% to 100%, but in all cases, the maximum
duration is for ten years as per state statute. To receive an abatement, applicants must submit an application,
which undergoes due diligence and analysis before being considered by the City Commission. If the abatement
is authorized, the applicant must sign a performance agreement that specifies annual compliance measures.
Each year, the applicant submits a renewal application, along with compliance information, which is reviewed
by City staff for conformance with agreement provisions. If compliance is not met, appeals can be made to the
City Commission to determine the amount of incentives, if any, to be received by the property owner. The City
of Salina negotiates property tax abatements on an individual basis.

Tax Increment Financing (TIF).TIFs are an economic development tool established by the Kansas TIF Act
(K.S.A. 12-1770 et seq.) and subject to City policy to aid in financing projects for substantial public benefit.
Public benefits can include creating jobs or retaining existing employment, eliminating blight, strengthening the
employment and economic base of the City, increasing property values and tax revenues, reducing poverty,
creating economic stability, upgrading older neighborhoods, facilitating economic self-sufficiency, promoting
projects that are of community wide importance, or implementing the economic development goals of the City.
The program works by reimbursing a portion of the incremental increase in property taxes resulting from
improvements and a portion of local sales tax generated within the district to the property owner. The base
value, or what the property was valued at prior to improvements, is shielded from the rebate.
To receive a TIF, applicants must submit a detailed, written proposal to the City, which will undergo due diligence
and analysis before being considered by the City Commission. The City Commission then determines if it will
commence the statutory process to create a redevelopment district.
If the TIF district is authorized, the City and applicant will enter into an agreement that specifies performance,
certification, and reimbursement requirements. City Staff will work with the property owner to certify eligible
expenses and compliance with agreement provisions. Once the project begins to generate TIF revenues (sales
tax and/or property tax), City staff works with the distributing agency and property owner to generate and track
reimbursements. Because reimbursements are not paid until after improvements are put in place, agreement
compliance is met, eligible expenses are certified, and sales and/or property tax distributions are made to the
City, there are no provisions for recapturing taxes. The City of Salina negotiates TIFs on an individual basis.

Community Improvement Districts (CID). CIDs are an economic development tool established by the Kansas
CID Act (K.S.A. 12-6a26 et seq.) and subject to City policy to assist with the development of community
improvements which can benefit a development and the public. In all CIDs, public improvements were financed
initially by the developer and are reimbursed annually via a two percent (2%) transportation district sales tax on
retail or taxable services occurring within the district.
To establish a CID, the applicant first submits a CID petition which is signed by the owners of all of the land
within the proposed district. The City Commission then considers the request to establish a CID.
If the CID is authorized, the City and applicant will enter into an agreement that specifies performance,
certification, and reimbursement requirements. City Staff will work with the property owner to certify eligible
expenses and compliance with agreement provisions. Once the project begins to generate CID revenues, City
Staff works with the distributing agency and property owner to make and track reimbursements. Because
reimbursements are not paid until after improvements are put in place, agreement compliance is met, eligible
expenses are certified, and CID sales tax distributions are made to the City, there are no provisions for
recapturing taxes. The City of Salina negotiates CIDs on an individual basis.

Neighborhood Revitalization Areas (NRA).NRAs are authorized under Kansas state statutes K.S.A. 12-117 and
subject to City policy to spur investment and revitalization of properties which can benefit a neighborhood and
the public. The program works by rebating a portion of the incremental increase in property taxes resulting from
improvements back to the property owner. The base value, or what the property was valued at prior to
improvements, is shielded from the rebate. Participation in the program and percentage of rebate and duration
are determined separately by the City, County, and School District. The current City of Salina adopted plan is
a 4-year plan running from 2015-2019. It allows for a 10-year rebate and provides rebates from 25% to 100%
depending on year in plan and type of improvement. To receive an NRA, taxpayers must submit an application,
which undergoes due diligence and analysis before being approved by the City. If the NRA is approved, each
year, the applicant must submit proof that property taxes have been paid in full. Because the rebate is not given
until after improvements are put in place and property taxes paid, there are no provisions for recapturing taxes.
The City of Salina approves NRAs on an individual basis.
