Executive Summary
The Borough of Rockaway's audit report for the year ended December 31, 2021, provides insights into the financial position and operations of the municipality. Conducted by Nisivoccia LLP, the audit assesses various funds including the Current Fund, Trust Fund, General Capital Fund, and Water Utility Fund. The report details the Borough's adherence to accounting practices prescribed by the Division of Local Government Services, highlighting revenue, expenditures, assets, and liabilities. Additionally, the report addresses compliance with legal and regulatory provisions, pension plans, and long-term debt obligations. It also highlights a continued deficiency in segregation of duties due to budgetary constraints.
The report includes supplementary data such as schedules of cash, taxes receivable, revenue accounts receivable, and appropriation reserves. Key areas covered are school district taxes, deferred charges, pension plans (PERS and PFRS), other post-employment benefits (OPEB), risk management, and cash management. Key issues identified are delinquent taxes, tax title liens, and the need for strong oversight of COVID-19 funding to ensure adherence to federal requirements.
While the report expresses unmodified opinions on the regulatory basis financial statements, an adverse opinion is noted on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. The report provides recommendations for improvements, including a more stringent approach to managing grants receivable and improved documentation practices.

PART I
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021
Independent Auditors' Report
The Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Borough Council
Borough of Rockaway
Rockaway, New Jersey
Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinions
We have audited the financial statements – regulatory basis - of the various funds and account group of the Borough
of Rockaway, in the County of Morris (the "Borough") as of and for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020,
and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the table of contents.
Unmodified Opinions on Regulatory Basis of Accounting
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of each fund and account group of the Borough as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results
of operations and changes in fund balance, where applicable, of such funds and account group, thereof for the years
then ended in accordance with the accounting practices prescribed or permitted, as described in Note 1, by the
Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey (the “Division”).
Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In our opinion, because of the significance of the matter discussed in the Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles section of our report, the accompanying financial statements referred to
above do not present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the financial position of each fund and account group of the Borough as of December 31, 2021 and 2020,
or the changes in financial position or where applicable, cash flows thereof for the years then ended.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America
(GAAS), audit requirements prescribed by the Division and the standards applicable to financial audits contained
in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial
Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Borough, and to meet our other ethical
responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
As described in Note 1 of the financial statements, the financial statements are prepared by the Borough on the basis
of the financial reporting provisions prescribed or permitted by the Division, which is a basis of accounting other
than accounting principles generally accepted in the United State of America, to meet the requirements of the
Division’s regulatory basis of accounting and the budget laws of New Jersey.
The effects on the financial statements of the variances between the regulatory basis of accounting described in
Note 1 and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although not reasonably
determinable, are presumed to be material and pervasive.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with
the financial reporting provisions of the Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community
Affairs, State of New Jersey (the “Division”) to demonstrate compliance with the Division's regulatory basis of
accounting, and the budget laws of New Jersey. Management is also responsible for 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 Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinions.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that
an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than
for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or
the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that,
individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial
statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we:
•
Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.
•
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include
examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
•
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit 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 Borough’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.
•
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting
estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
•
Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise
substantial doubt about the Borough’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of
time.

We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned
scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control-related matters that we
identified during the audit.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements of the various funds and
account group that collectively comprise the Township’s financial statements. The supplementary data schedules
listed in the table of contents and the schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards, as required by Title 2
U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards (“Uniform Guidance”) and New Jersey’s OMB Circular 15-08, Single Audit
Policy for Recipients of Federal Grants, State Grants and State Aid, are presented for purposes of additional analysis
and are not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and
was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the various
fund and account group financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied
in the audit of the various fund and account group financial statements and certain additional procedures, including
comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare
the various fund and account group financial statements or to the various fund and account group financial
statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplementary data schedules and the schedules of expenditures
of federal and state awards are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the various fund and account group
financial statements as a whole.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 25, 2022 on our
consideration of the Borough’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with
certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report
is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the
results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Borough’s internal control over
financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the Borough’s internal control over financial reporting and
compliance.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021
Note 1:
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
A. Reporting Entity
Except as noted below, the financial statements of the Borough of Rockaway include every board,
body, officer or commission supported and maintained wholly or in part by funds appropriated by the
Borough of Rockaway, as required by N.J.S. 40A:5-5. Accordingly, the financial statements of the
Borough of Rockaway do not include the operations of the Library or Volunteer Fire and First Aid
Squads.
Governmental Accounting Standards Board publication Codification of Government Accounting and
Financial Reporting Standards (“GASB”), Section 2100 “Defining the Financial Reporting Entity"
establishes standards to determine whether a governmental component unit should be included in the
financial reporting entity. Component units are legally separate organizations for which the elected
officials of the primary government are financially accountable. In addition, component units can be
other organizations for which the nature and significance of their relationship with a primary
government are such that exclusion would cause the reporting entity's financial statements to be
misleading. The primary government is financially accountable if it appoints a voting majority of the
organization's governing body and (1) it is able to impose its will on that organization or (2) there is
a potential for the organization to provide specific financial benefits to, or impose specific financial
burdens on, the primary government. A legally separate, tax-exempt organization should be reported
as a component unit of a reporting entity if all of the following criteria are met: (1) The economic
resources received or held by the separate organization are entirely or almost entirely for the direct
benefit of the primary government, its component units, or its constituents. (2) The primary
government, or its component units, is entitled to, or has the ability to otherwise access, a majority of
the economic resources received or held by the separate organization. (3) The economic resources
received or held by an individual organization that the specific primary government, or its component
units, is entitled to, or has the ability to otherwise access, are significant to that primary government.
As the financial reporting entity was established in accordance with New Jersey statutes, the
requirements of GASB Codification Section 2100 were not followed and, accordingly, the reporting
entity could be different from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America.
B. Description of Funds
The accounting policies of the Borough of Rockaway conform to the accounting practices applicable
to municipalities which have been prescribed or permitted by the Division of Local Government
Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey (the "Division"). Such practices
are designed primarily for determining compliance with legal provisions and budgetary restrictions
and as a means of reporting on the stewardship of public officials with respect to public funds. Under
this method of accounting, the Borough of Rockaway accounts for its financial transactions through
the following separate funds:
Current Fund - Resources and expenditures for governmental operations of a general nature, including
federal and state grant funds.
Trust Fund - Receipt, custodianship and disbursement of funds in accordance with the purpose for
which each reserve was created.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021
(Continued)
Note 1:
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont'd)
B. Description of Funds (Cont’d)
General Capital Fund - Receipt and disbursement of funds for the acquisition of general capital
facilities, other than those acquired in the Current Fund.
Water Utility Operating and Capital Fund – Account for the operations and acquisition of capital
facilities of the municipally owned water utility.
General Fixed Assets Account Group – Estimated values of land, buildings and certain fixed assets
of the Borough as discussed in Note 1E – “Basis of Accounting”.
C. Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenue and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the
accounts and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the
measurements made, regardless of the measurement focus applied.
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies.
Revenue is recorded when received in cash except for certain amounts which may be due from the
State of New Jersey and for the prepayment of future years' revenue. Grant revenue is realized in the
operating funds when it is budgeted and in the capital funds when improvements are authorized. The
amounts recorded as property taxes and consumer accounts receivable have not been included in
revenue. Amounts that are due to the municipality, which are susceptible of accrual, are recorded as
receivables with offsetting reserves in the Current Fund.
Expenditures are charged to operations generally based on budgeted amounts. Exceptions to this
general rule include:
1.
Accumulated unpaid vacation, sick pay and other employee amounts are not accrued.
2.
Prepaid expenses, such as insurance premiums applicable to subsequent periods, are
charged to current budget appropriations in total.
3.
Principal and interest on long-term debt are recognized when due.
Expenditures, if any, in excess of appropriations, appropriation reserves or ordinances become
deferred charges which must be raised by future taxes. Outstanding encumbrances at December 31
are reported as a cash liability in the financial statements and constitute part of the statutory
appropriation reserve balance. Appropriation reserves covering unexpended appropriation balances
are automatically created at December 31 of each year and recorded as liabilities, except for amounts
which may be cancelled by the governing body. Appropriation reserves are available, until lapsed at
the close of the succeeding year, to meet specific claims, commitments or contracts incurred during
the preceding fiscal year. Lapsed appropriation reserves are recorded as income.

(Continued)
Note 1:
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont'd)
C. Basis of Accounting (Cont’d)
Had the Borough's financial statements been prepared under generally accepted accounting
principles, encumbrances would not be considered as expenditures; appropriation reserves would not
be recorded; revenue susceptible to accrual would have been reflected without offsetting reserves;
Federal and State grants and assistance would be recognized when earned, not when received;
inventories would not be reflected as expenditures at the time of purchase; fixed assets purchased by
the Water Utility Capital Fund would be depreciated, investments would generally be stated at fair
value, and the Borough’s net pension liability and related deferred inflows and outflows would be
recorded.
The cash basis of accounting is followed in the Trust and Capital Funds.
D. Deferred Charges to Future Taxation
The General Capital Fund balance sheet includes both funded and unfunded deferred charges.
Funded deferred charges represent improvement authorizations where permanent financing has been
obtained. Unfunded deferred charges represent improvement authorizations where no or temporary
financing has been obtained. A municipality can permanently finance unfunded deferred charges
through budget appropriation, grant funds, or by issuing bonds, loans or capital lease purchase
agreements.
E. Other significant accounting policies include:
Management Estimates – The preparation of financial statements requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenue and expenditures/expenses
during the period reported. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents – Amounts include petty cash, change funds, amounts on deposit, and
short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less.
Investments – Investments are stated at cost.
Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts – No allowance for uncollectible accounts has been recorded
as all amounts are considered collectible.
Compensated Absences - Expenditures relating to unused vested accumulated vacation and sick pay
are not recorded until paid.
Foreclosed Property - Foreclosed property is recorded in the Current Fund at the assessed valuation
when such property was acquired and is fully reserved.
Interfunds - Interfund receivables in the Current Fund are recorded with offsetting reserves which are
created by charges to operations. Income is recognized in the year the receivables are liquidated.
Interfund receivables in the other funds are not offset by reserves.

Note 1:
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Cont'd)
E. Other significant accounting policies include: (Cont’d)
Inventories of Supplies - The cost of inventories of supplies for all funds are recorded as expenditures
at the time individual items are purchased. The cost of inventories is not included on the various
balance sheets.
Grants Receivable - Grants receivable represent the total grant awards less amounts collected to date.
Because the amount of grant funds to be collected are dependent on the total costs eligible for
reimbursement, the actual amount collected may be less than the total amount awarded.
General Fixed Assets – General fixed assets are recorded at cost or estimated historical cost.
Infrastructure assets are not included in general fixed assets, as per state directive. Major renewals
and betterments are charged to the asset accounts; maintenance and minor repairs and replacements,
which do not improve or extend the lives of the respective assets, are expensed currently. Donated
fixed assets are valued at their fair market value on the date donated. Fixed assets are reviewed for
impairment.
The total value recorded for general fixed assets is offset by an “Investment in Fixed Assets”. When
properties are retired or otherwise disposed of, the asset and the reserve are adjusted accordingly.
Assets recorded in the General Fixed Assets Account Group may also be recorded in the Current
Fund, General Capital Fund and Water Utility Fund. The values recorded in the general fixed assets
account group and the capital funds may not always agree due to differences in valuation methods,
timing of recognition of assets, and the recognition of infrastructures.
Property and equipment purchased by the Water Utility Fund are recorded in the capital account at
cost and does not purport to represent replacement costs or current value. Contributions in aid of
construction are not capitalized and depreciation is not recorded. The balances in the Reserve for
Amortization and Deferred Reserve for Amortization accounts in the Water Utility Capital Fund
represent charges to operations for the acquisition cost of property, equipment and improvements.
F.
Budget/Budgetary Control – Annual budgets are usually prepared in the first quarter for the Current
and Water Utility Operating Funds. Budgets are prepared on the cash basis of accounting and are
submitted to the governing body and the Division of Local Government Services. The legal level of
budgetary control is established at the line-item accounts within each fund and are defined as the
lowest (most specific) level of detail as established pursuant to the flexible chart of accounts
referenced in N.J.S.A. 40A. All budget amendments/transfers must be approved by the Borough
Council during the year.
Note 2:
Long-Term Debt
The Local Bond Law governs the issuance of bonds to finance general Borough capital expenditures. All
bonds are retired in serial installments within the statutory period of usefulness. All bonds issued by the
Borough are general obligation bonds. The Borough’s full faith and credit and taxing power have been
pledged to the payment of the general obligation debt principal and interest.

determined rate which includes the normal cost and unfunded accrued liability. Chapter 19, P.L. 2009
provided an option for local employers of PERS to contribute 50% of the normal and accrued liability
contribution amounts certified for payments due in State fiscal year 2009. Such employers will be
credited with the full payment and any such amounts will not be included in their unfunded liability. The
actuaries will determine the unfunded liability of those retirement systems, by employer, for the reduced
normal and accrued liability contributions provided under this law. This unfunded liability will be paid
by the employer in level annual payments over a period of 15 years, beginning with the payments due in
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2012 and are adjusted by the rate of return on the actuarial value of assets.
Borough contributions to PERS amounted to $199,869 for 2021.

Pension Liabilities and Pension Expense
At June 30, 2020, the Borough’s liability was $2,979,410 for its proportionate share of the net pension
liability. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total pension liability used
to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2019 which
was rolled forward to June 30, 2020. The Borough's proportion of the net pension liability was based on
a projection of the Borough's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected
contributions of all participating members, actuarially determined. At June 30, 2020, the Borough's
proportion was 0.0182%, which was an increase of 0.0002% from its proportion measured as of June 30,
2019. The Borough has rolled forward the net pension liability as of June 30, 2020 with no adjustments.
The State of New Jersey Public Employees’ Retirement System (PERS)’ valuation cycle is July 1 instead
of December 31. The roll forward methodology puts them a year in arrears in terms of valuation. The
Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey is
permitting municipalities and counties to include the June 30, 2020 information in the Notes to the
Financial Statements as the June 30, 2021 information has not been released as of the date of this audit.
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the Borough recognized actual pension expense in the amount of
$199,869.
Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability for the June 30, 2020 measurement date was determined by an actuarial
valuation as of July 1, 2019 which was rolled forward to June 30, 2020. This actuarial valuation used the
following actuarial assumptions:
Inflation Rate
Price
2.75%
Wage
3.25%
Salary Increases:
Through 2026
2.00 – 6.00% based on years of service
Thereafter
3.00 – 7.00% based on years of service
Investment Rate of Return
7.00%
Pre-retirement mortality rates were based on the Pub-2010 General Below-Median Income Employee
Mortality Table with an 82.2% adjustment for males and 101.4% adjustment for females, and with future
improvement from the base year of 2010 on a generational basis. Post-retirement mortality rates were
based on the Pub-2010 General Below-Median Income Healthy Retiree mortality table with a 91.4%
adjustment for males and a 99.7% adjustment for females, and with future improvement from the base
year of 2010 on a generational basis. Disability retirement rates used to value disabled retirees were
based on the Pub-2010 Non-Safety Disabled Retiree mortality table with a 127.7% adjustment for males
and 117.2% adjustment for females, and with future improvement from the base year of 2010 on a
generational basis. Mortality improvement is based on Scale MP-2020.

Actuarial Assumptions (Cont’d)
The actuarial assumptions used in the July 1, 2019 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial
experience study for the period July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2018.
Long Term Expected Rate of Return
In accordance with State statute, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments
(7.00% at June 30, 2020) is determined by the State Treasurer, after consultation with the Directors of
the Division of Investments and Division of Pensions and Benefits, the Board of Trustees and the
actuaries. The long-term expected rate of return 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 and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real
rates of return for each major asset class included in PERS’ target asset allocation as of June 30, 2020 are
summarized in the following table:

Discount Rate
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.00% as of June 30, 2020. The
projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan
members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers
and the nonemployer contributing entity will be based upon 78% of the actuarially determined
contributions for the State employer and 100% of actuarially determined contributions for the local
employers. Based on those assumptions, the 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 plan investments was applied to all projected benefit payments to determine the total
pension liability.
Sensitivity of the Borough's Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Liability to Changes in the Discount

Definition
Service retirement benefits are available at age 55 and are generally determined to be 2% of final
compensation for each year of creditable service, as defined, up to 30 years plus 1% for each year of
service in excess of 30 years. Members may seek special retirement after achieving 25 years of creditable
service, in which benefits would equal 65% (tiers 1 and 2 members) and 60% (tier 3 members) of final
compensation plus 1% for each year of creditable service over 25 years but not to exceed 30 years.
Members may elect deferred retirement benefits after achieving ten years of service, in which case
benefits would begin at age 55 equal to 2% of final compensation for each year of service.
Contributions
The contribution policy for PFRS is set by N.J.S.A. 43:16A and requires contributions by active members
and contributing members. The Local employers’ contribution amounts are based on an actuarially

Special Funding Situation
Under N.J.S.A. 43:16A-15, local participating employers are responsible for their own contributions
based on actuarially determined amounts, except where legislation was passed which legally obligated
the State if certain circumstances occurred. The legislation, which legally obligates the State, is as
follows: Chapter 8, P.L. 2000, Chapter 318, P.L. 2001, Chapter 86, P.L. 2001, Chapter 511, P.L. 1991,
Chapter 109, P.L. 1979, Chapter 247, P.L. 1993 and Chapter 201, P.L. 2001. The amounts contributed
on behalf of the local participating employers under this legislation are considered to be a special funding
situation as defined by GASB Statement No. 68 and the State is treated as a nonemployer contributing
entity. Since the local participating employers do not contribute under this legislation directly to the plan
(except for employer specified financed amounts), there is no net pension liability or deferred outflows
or inflows to report in the financial statements of the local participating employers related to this
legislation. However, the notes to the financial statements of the local participating employers must
disclose the portion of the nonemployer contributing entities’ total proportionate share of the collective
net pension liability that is associated with the local participating employer.
Borough contributions to PFRS amounted to $528,183 for the year ended December 31, 2021. During
the fiscal year ended June 30, 2020, the State of New Jersey contributed $72,955 to the PFRS for normal
pension benefits on behalf of the Borough, which is less than the contractually required contribution of
$107,447.
The employee contributions for PFRS are 10.00% of employees' annual compensation, as defined.
Pension Liabilities and Pension Expense
At June 30, 2020, the Borough’s liability for its proportionate share of the net pension liability was
$6,109,022. The net pension liability was measured as of June 30, 2020, and the total pension liability
used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2019
which was rolled forward to June 30, 2020. The Borough's proportion of the net pension liability was
based on a projection of the Borough's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the
projected contributions of all participating members, actuarially determined. At June 30, 2020, the
Borough's proportion was 0.047%, which was a decrease of 0.001% from its proportion measured as of
June 30, 2019. The Borough has rolled forward the net pension liability as of June 30, 2020 with no
adjustments. The State of New Jersey Police and Firemen’s Retirement System (PFRS)’ valuation cycle
is July 1 instead of December 31. The roll forward methodology puts them a year in arrears in terms of
valuation. The Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New

Actuarial Assumptions (Cont’d)
The actuarial assumptions used in the July 1, 2019 valuation were based on the results of an actuarial
experience study for the period July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2018.
Long Term Expected Rate of Return
In accordance with State statute, the long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments
(7.00% at June 30, 2020) is determined by the State Treasurer, after consultation with the Directors of
the Division of Investments and Division of Pensions and Benefits, the Board of Trustees and the
actuaries. The long-term expected rate of return 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 and by adding expected inflation. Best estimates of arithmetic real
rates of return for each major asset class included in PFRS’ target asset allocation as of June 30, 2020 are
summarized in the following table:

Discount Rate – PFRS
The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 7.00% as of June 30, 2020. The
projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that contributions from plan
members will be made at the current member contribution rates and that contributions from employers
and the nonemployer contributing entity will be based upon 78% of the actuarially determined
contributions for the State employer and 100% of actuarially determined contributions for the local
employers. Based on those assumptions, the 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 plan investments was applied to all projected benefit payments to determine the total
pension liability.
Sensitivity of the Total Net Pension Liability (including the State’s proportionate share of the net pension
liability attributable to the Borough) to Changes in the Discount Rate
The following presents the total net pension liability (including the State’s proportionate share of the net
pension liability attributable to the Borough) as of June 30, 2020 calculated using the discount rate as
disclosed above, as well as what the collective net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a

C. Defined Contribution Retirement Program (DCRP)
Prudential Financial jointly administers the DCRP investments with the NJ Division of Pensions and
Benefits. If an employee is ineligible to enroll in the PERS or PFRS, the employee may be eligible to
enroll in the DCRP. DCRP provides eligible members with a tax-sheltered, defined contribution
retirement benefit, along with life insurance and disability coverage. Vesting is immediate upon
enrollment for members of the DCRP.
The State of New Jersey, Department of the Treasury, Division of Pensions and Benefits, issues publicly
available financial reports that include the financial statements and required supplementary information
of the DCRP. The financial reports may be obtained by writing to the State of New Jersey, Department
of the Treasury, Division of Pensions and Benefits, PO Box 295, Trenton, New Jersey, 08625-0295.
Employers are required to contribute at an actuarially determined rate. Employee contributions are based
on percentages of 5.50% for DCRP of employees’ annual compensation, as defined. The DCRP was
established July 1, 2007, under the provisions of Chapter 92, P.L. 2007 and Chapter 103, P.L. 2007 and
expanded under the provisions of Chapter 89, P.L. 2008. Employee contributions for DCRP are matched
by a 3% employer contribution.
For DCRP, the Borough recognized pension expense of $9,134.12 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Employee contributions to DCRP amounted to $12,404.28 for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Note 7:
Accrued Sick and Vacation Benefits
The Borough permits employees to accrue a limited amount of unused vacation and sick pay, which may
be taken as time off or paid at a later date at an agreed-upon rate. It is estimated that the current cost of
such unpaid compensation would approximate $209,747.94 at December 31, 2021. This amount is not
reported either as an expenditure or a liability. It is expected that the cost of such unpaid compensation
would be included in the Borough’s budget operating expenditures in the year in which it is used. The
Borough has reserved $225,793.66 for Deferred Sick Leave on the Trust Fund balance sheet at December
31, 2021.
Note 8:
Selected Tax Information
Property taxes are levied as of January 1 on property values assessed as of the previous calendar year.
The tax levy is divided into two billings. The first billing is an estimate of the current year's levy based
on the prior year's taxes. The second billing reflects adjustments to the current year's actual levy. The
final tax bill is usually mailed on or before June 14th, along with the first half estimated tax bills for the
subsequent year. The first half estimated taxes are divided into two due dates, February 1 and May 1.
The final tax bills are also divided into two due dates, August 1 and November 1. A ten-day grace period
is usually granted before the taxes are considered delinquent and the imposition of interest charges. A
penalty may be assessed for any unpaid taxes in excess of $10,000 at December 31 of the current year.
Unpaid taxes of the prior year may be placed in lien at a tax sale held after April 1 and through December
31. Unpaid taxes of the current year may be placed in lien at a tax sale held after December 10.

GASB require disclosure of the level of custodial credit risk assumed by the Borough in its cash, cash
equivalents and investments, if those items are uninsured or unregistered. Custodial risk is the risk that
in the event of bank failure, the government’s deposits may not be returned.
Interest Rate Risk – In accordance with its cash management plan, the Borough ensures that any deposit
or investments matures within the time period that approximates the prospective need for the funds,
deposited or invested, so that there is not a risk to the market value of such deposits or investments.
Credit Risk – The Borough limits its investments to those authorized in its cash management plan which
are permitted under state statutes as detailed on the following page.
Custodial Credit Risk – The Borough’s policy with respect to custodial credit risk requires that the
Borough ensures that Borough funds are only deposited in financial institutions in which New Jersey
municipalities are permitted to invest their funds.
Deposits:
New Jersey statutes require that municipalities deposit public funds in public depositories located in New
Jersey which are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or by any other agency of the
United States that insures deposits made in public depositories. Municipalities are also permitted to
deposit public funds in the State of New Jersey Cash Management Fund.
New Jersey statutes require public depositories to maintain collateral for deposits of public funds that
exceed insurance limits as follows:
The market value of the collateral must equal 5% of the average daily balance of public funds on
deposit, and
In addition to the above collateral requirement, if public funds deposited exceed 75% of the capital
funds of the depository, the depository must provide collateral having a market value at least equal
to 100% of the amount exceeding 75%.
All collateral must be deposited with the Federal Reserve Bank, the Federal Home Loan Bank Board or
a banking institution that is a member of the Federal Reserve System and has capital funds of not less
than $25,000,000.

The Borough offers its employees deferred compensation plans (the “plans”) created in accordance with
Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code. The plans, which are administered by AXA Equitable and
Nationwide, are available to all Borough employees and permit participants to defer a portion of their
salary. The deferred compensation is not available to employees until termination, retirement,
unforeseeable emergency or upon death to their beneficiaries.
Note 12: Economic Dependency
The Borough of Rockaway receives a substantial amount of support from federal and state governments.
A significant reduction in the level of support, if this were to occur, may have an effect on the Borough’s
programs and activities.
Note 13: Contingent Liabilities
The Borough is periodically involved in various lawsuits arising in the normal course of business,
including claims for property damage, personal injury, and various contract disputes. The Borough
vigorously contests all lawsuits and believes the ultimate resolution would not have a material adverse
effect on its financial position.
Amounts received or receivable from grantors, principally the federal and state governments are subject
to regulatory requirements and adjustments by the agencies. Any disallowed claims, including amounts
previously recognized by the Borough as revenue would constitute a liability of the applicable funds. The
amount, if any, of expenditures which may be disallowed by the grantors cannot be determined at this
time, although Borough officials expect such amounts, if any, to be immaterial.
Various tax appeals on assessed valuations have been filed against the Borough and are awaiting tax court
decisions. The ultimate outcome and effect of such appeals have not been determined; however, the
Borough Tax Assessor will aggressively defend the Borough's assessments. The Borough has established
a reserve in the amount of $650,000.00 which it feels should be sufficient to cover these tax appeals.

State Health Benefit Local Government Retired Employees Plan
General Information about the OPEB Plan
Plan Description
The State Health Benefit Local Government Retired Employees Plan (the Plan) is a cost sharing multiple
employer defined benefit other postemployment benefit (OPEB) plan with a special funding situation. It
covers employees of local government employers that have adopted a resolution to participate in the Plan.
For additional information about the Plan, please refer to the State of New Jersey (the State), Division of
Pensions and Benefits’ (the Division) annual financial statements, which can be found at
https://www.state.nj.us./treasury/pensions/financial-reports.shtml.
Benefits Provided
The Plan provides medical and prescription drug coverage to retirees and their covered dependents of the
participating employers. Under the provisions of Chapter 88, P.L. 1974 and Chapter 48, P.L. 1999, local
government employers electing to provide postretirement medical coverage to their employees must file a
resolution with the Division. Under Chapter 88, local employers elect to provide benefit coverage based
on the eligibility rules and regulations promulgated by the State Health Benefits Commission. Chapter 48
allows local employers to establish their own age and service eligibility for employer paid health benefits
coverage for retired employees. Under Chapter 48, the employer may assume the cost of postretirement
medical coverage for employees and their dependents who: 1) retired on a disability pension; or 2) retired
with 25 or more years of service credit in a State or locally administered retirement system and a period
of service of up to 25 years with the employer at the time of retirement as established by the employer; or
3) retired and reached the age of 65 with 25 or more years of service credit in a State or locally administered
retirement system and a period of service of up to 25 years with the employer at the time of retirement as
established by the employer; or 4) retired and reached age 62 with at least 15 years of service with the
employer. Further, the law provides that the employer paid obligations for retiree coverage may be
determined by means of a collective negotiations agreement.
In accordance with Chapter 330, P.L. 1997, which is codified in N.J.S.A. 52:14-17.32i, the State provides
medical and prescription coverage to local police officers and firefighters, who retire with 25 years of
service or on a disability from an employer who does not provide postretirement medical coverage. Local
employers were required to file a resolution with the Division in order for their employees to qualify for
State-paid retiree health benefits coverage under Chapter 330. The State also provides funding for retiree
health benefits to survivors of local police officers and firefighters who die in the line of duty under
Chapter 271, P.L. 1989.
Contributions
Pursuant to Chapter 78, P.L. 2011, future retirees eligible for postretirement medical coverage who have
less than 20 years of creditable service on June 28, 2011 will be required to pay a percentage of the cost
of their health care coverage in retirement provided they retire with 25 or more years of pension service
credit. The percentage of the premium for which the retiree will be responsible will be determined based
on the retiree’s annual retirement benefit and level of coverage.

Note 14: Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions (OPEB) (Cont’d)
State Health Benefit Local Government Retired Employees Plan (Cont’d)
Special Funding Situation
Under Chapter 330, P.L. 1997, the State shall pay the premium or periodic charges for the qualified local
police and firefighter retirees and dependents equal to 80 percent of the premium or periodic charge for
the category of coverage elected by the qualified retiree under the State managed care plan or a health
maintenance organization participating in the program providing the lowest premium or periodic charge.
The State also provides funding for retiree health benefits to survivors of local police officers and
firefighters who die in the line of duty under Chapter 271, P.L. 1989.
Therefore, these employers are considered to be in a special funding situation as defined by GASB
Statement No. 75 and the State is treated as a nonemployer contributing entity. For New Jersey local
governments who report under the regulatory basis of accounting, the net OPEB liability and related
deferred inflows are not recorded in the financial statements and there is only note disclosure of this
information. Since the local participating employers do not contribute under this legislation directly to the
plan, there is no net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources, or deferred inflows of resources to
report in the financial statements of the local participating employers related to this legislation. However,
the notes to the financial statements of the local participating employers must disclose the portion of the
nonemployer contributing entities’ total proportionate share of the collective net OPEB liability that is
associated with the local participating employer.
Allocation Methodology
GASB Statement No. 75 requires participating employers in the Plan to recognize their proportionate share
of the collective net OPEB liability, collective deferred outflows of resources, collective inflows of
resources, and collective OPEB (benefit) expense. The special funding situation’s and nonspecial funding
situation’s net OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and OPEB
expense are based on separately calculated total OPEB liabilities. The nonspecial funding situation’s net
OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources, deferred inflows of resources, and OPEB (benefit) expense
are further allocated to employers based on the ratio of the plan members of an individual employer to the
total members of the Plan’s nonspecial funding situation during the measurement period July 1, 2019
through June 30, 2020. Employer and nonemployer allocation percentages were rounded for presentation
purposes; therefore, amounts presented in the schedule of OPEB amounts by employer and nonemployer
may result in immaterial differences.

OPEB Expense
The Borough has rolled forward the net OPEB liability as of June 30, 2020 with no adjustments. The
Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey, is
permitting municipalities and counties to include the June 30, 2020 OPEB information in the Notes to the

The total OPEB liability as of June 30, 2020 was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30, 2019,
which was rolled forward to June 30, 2020.
At June 30, 2020, the State’s proportionate share of the net OPEB liability attributable to the Borough was
$5,171,381. At June 30, 2020, the State’s proportion related to the Borough was .09467% which was an
increase of .01752 from its proportion measured as of June 30, 2019. This is the percentage of the total
State Share of the net OPEB liability of the Plan.
Additionally, during the year ended June 30, 2020, the State of New Jersey’s OPEB benefit related to the

Note 14: Postemployment Benefits Other Than Pensions (OPEB) (Cont’d)
State Health Benefit Local Government Retired Employees Plan (Cont’d)
Health Care Trend Assumptions
For pre-Medicare medical benefits, the trend rate is initially is 5.6% and decreases to a 4.5% long term
trend rate after seven years. For post 65 medical benefits, the actual fully-insured Medicare Advantage
trend rate for fiscal year 2021 through 2022 are reflected. The rates used for 2023 and 2024 are 21.83%
and 18.53%, respectively trending to 4.5% for all future years. For prescription drug benefits, the initial
trend rate is 7.0% and decreases to a 4.5% long term rate after seven years.
Discount Rate
The discount rate for June 30, 2020 was 2.21%. The discount rate for June 30, 2019 was 3.50%. This
represents the municipal bond rate as chosen by the State. The source is the Bond Buyer Go 20-Bond
Municipal Bond Index, which includes tax-exempt general obligation municipal bonds with an average
rating of AA/Aa or higher. As the long-term rate of return is less than the municipal bond rate, it is not
considered in the calculation of the discount rate, rather the discount rate is set at the municipal bond rate.

NOTES TO SCHEDULES OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AND STATE AWARDS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021
Note 1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards (the “Schedules”) include the
federal and state grant activity of the Borough of Rockaway under programs of the federal and state
governments for the year ended December 31, 2021. The information in these schedules is presented in
accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform
Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (“Uniform
Guidance”) and New Jersey's OMB Circular 15-08, Single Audit Policy for Recipients of Federal Grants,
State Grants and State Aid. Because the schedules present only a selected portion of the operations of
the Borough, they are not intended to and do not present the financial position, changes in fund balance
or cash flows of the Borough.
Note 2.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Expenditures reported on the accompanying schedules of expenditures of federal and state awards are
reported on the cash basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles
contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are
limited as to reimbursement. Negative amounts, if any, shown on the Schedules represent adjustments
or credits made in the normal course of business to amounts reported as expenditures in prior years.
Pass-through identifying numbers are presented where available. The Borough has elected not to use
the 10 percent de minimis indirect cost rate as allowed under the Uniform Guidance.
Note 3.
RELATIONSHIP TO FEDERAL AND STATE FINANCIAL REPORTS
Amounts reported in the accompanying schedules agree with the amounts reported in the related federal
and state financial reports.

Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements
Performed in Accordance with Government Auditing Standards
Independent Auditors' Report
The Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Borough Council
Borough of Rockaway
Rockaway, New Jersey
We have audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, audit
requirements prescribed by the Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State
of New Jersey (“the Division”), and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, the financial statements - regulatory basis - of
the various funds of the Borough of Rockaway, in the County of Morris (the "Borough") as of and for the years
ended December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements and have issued our report
thereon dated March 25, 2022. These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
practices prescribed or permitted by the Division to demonstrate compliance with the Division's regulatory basis of
accounting, and the budget laws of New Jersey, which is a basis of accounting other than accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Borough’s internal control over
financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Township’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an
opinion on the effectiveness of the Borough’s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct,
misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal
control such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Borough’s financial statements
will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough
to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of the internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section
and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant
deficiencies and therefore, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that have not been identified.
Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to
be material weaknesses. We identified a certain deficiency in internal control, described in the accompanying
Schedule of Findings and Responses as Finding 2021-001, that we consider to be a significant deficiency.

Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Borough’s financial statements are free of material
misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant
agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements.
However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and,
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance
or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
The Borough’s Response to the Finding
Government Auditing Standards requires the auditor to perform limited procedures on the Borough’s response to
the finding identified in our audit and described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Responses. The
Borough’s response was not subjected to the other auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial
statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the response.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the
results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the Borough’s internal control or on
compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing
Standards in considering the Borough’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not
suitable for any other purpose.

-
The Borough was not subject to the single audit provisions of the Uniform Guidance and New Jersey’s OMB
Circular 15-08 for the year ended December 31, 2021 as both state and federal grant expenditures were less
than the single audit thresholds of $750,000 identified in the Uniform Guidance and NJOMB 15-08.
Findings Relating to the Financial Statements which are required to be Reported in Accordance with Generally
Accepted Government Auditing Standards:
-

Finding 2021-001
Segregation of Duties
Criteria
Concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals is not desirable from
a control point of view.
Condition
The Borough does not maintain an adequate segregation of duties with respect to the recording and
treasury functions.
The various departments/offices of the Borough are responsible for the issuance of permits and
licenses; collections of taxes and permit and license fees; and recording of collections. Also the
deposit and recording of receipts for the various funds, the reconciliation of the bank accounts, and
the preparation of the general ledger are all performed by the Chief Financial Officer. The
disbursement of funds and the preparation of payroll are performed by the Finance Clerk, however;
the Chief Financial Officer currently oversees and is partially involved in these duties.

-
The audit disclosed the following significant deficiency required to be reported under Generally Accepted
Government Auditing Standards: (Cont’d)
Finding 2021-001 (Cont’d)
Segregation of Duties (Cont’d)
Cause
This is due, in part, to the limited number of personnel of the Borough and the decentralized nature
of governmental collection procedures.
Effect or Potential Effect
Segregation of duties refers to separating those functions that place too much control over a
transaction or class of transactions that would enable a person to perpetuate errors and prevent
detection within a reasonable period of time.
Recommendation
It is recommended that an adequate segregation of duties be maintained with respect to the
recording and treasury functions.
Management’s Response
The finding was evaluated, however, due to budgetary constraints, no resolution can be made at this
time.
Findings and Questioned Costs for Federal Awards:
- Not Applicable since Federal expenditures were below the single audit threshold.
Findings and Questioned Costs for State Awards:
- Not Applicable since State expenditures were below the single audit threshold.

COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2021
BOROUGH OF ROCKAWAY
COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Contracts and Agreements Required to be Advertised for N.J.S.A. 40A:11-4
N.J.S. 40A:11-3 states:
a. " When the cost or price of any contract awarded by the contracting agent in the aggregate does not exceed in a
contract year the total sum of $17,500, the contract may be awarded by a purchasing agent when so authorized by
ordinance or resolution, as appropriate to the contracting unit, of the governing body of the contracting unit without
public advertising for bids, except that the governing body of any contracting unit may adopt an ordinance or
resolution to set a lower threshold for the receipt of public bids or the solicitation of competitive quotations. If the
purchasing agent is qualified pursuant to subsection b. of section 9 of P.L. 1971, c.198 (C.40A:11-9), the governing
body of the contracting unit may establish that the bid threshold may be up to $25,000. Such authorization may be
granted for each contract or by a general delegation of the power to negotiate and award such contracts pursuant to
this section.
b. Any contract made pursuant to this section may be awarded for a period of 24 consecutive months, except that
contracts for professional services pursuant to subparagraph (i) of paragraph (a) of subsection (1) of section 5 of
P.L. 1971, c.198 (C.40A: 11-5) may be awarded for a period not exceeding 12 consecutive months. The Division
of Local Government Services shall adopt and promulgate rules and regulations concerning the methods of
accounting for all contracts that do not coincide with the contracting unit’s fiscal year.
c. The Governor, in consultation with the Department of the Treasury, shall, no later than March 1 of every fifth
year beginning in the fifth year after the year in which P.L. 1999 c.440 takes effect, adjust the threshold amount and
the higher threshold amount which the governing body is permitted to establish, as set forth in subsection a. of this
section, or the threshold amount resulting from any adjustment under this subsection, in direct proportion to the rise
or fall of the index rate as that term is defined in section 2 of P.L.1971, c.198 (C.40A11-2), and shall round the
adjustment to the nearest $1,000. The Governor shall, no later than June 1 of every fifth year, notify each governing
body of the adjustment. The adjustment shall become effective on July 1 of the year in which it is made.”
N.J.S. 40A: 11-4 states: “Every contract awarded by the contracting agent for the provision or performance of any
goods or services, the cost of which in the aggregate exceeds the bid threshold, shall be awarded only by resolution
of the governing body of the contracting unit to the lowest responsible bidder after public advertising for bids and
bidding therefore, except as is provided otherwise in this act or specifically by any other law. The governing body
of a contracting unit may, by resolution approved by a majority of the governing body and subject to subsections b.
and c. of this section, disqualify a bidder who would otherwise be determined to be the lowest responsible bidder,
if the governing body finds that it has had prior negative experience with the bidder.”
Effective July 1, 2020 and thereafter, the bid thresholds in accordance with N.J.S.A. 40A:11-3 are $17,500 for a
contracting unit without a qualified purchasing agent and $44,000 for a contracting unit with a qualified purchasing
agent.
The governing body of the Borough of Rockaway has the responsibility of determining whether the expenditures
in any category will exceed the bid threshold within the fiscal year and where question arises as to whether any
contract or agreement might result in violation of the statute, the Borough Attorney's opinion should be sought
before a commitment is made.

COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
(Continued)
Contracts and Agreements Required to be Advertised for N.J.S.A. 40A:11-4 (Cont’d)
The minutes indicated that bids were requested by public advertising per N.J.S. 40A:11-4. The minutes also
indicated that resolutions were adopted authorizing the awarding of contracts or agreements for "Professional
Services," per N.J.S. 40A:11-5.
Inasmuch as the system of records did not provide for an accumulation of payments for categories for the
performance of any work or the furnishing or hiring of any materials or supplies, the results of such an accumulation
could not reasonably be ascertained. Disbursements were reviewed, however, to determine whether any clear-cut
violations existed. None were noted.
Collection of Interest on Delinquent Taxes and Assessments
The statute provides the method for authorizing interest and the maximum rate to be charged for the nonpayment
of taxes or assessments on or before the date when they would become delinquent.
On January 4, 2021, the governing body adopted the following resolution authorizing interest to be charged on
delinquent taxes and utility charges:
BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Rockaway, Morris County, New Jersey,
that the rate of interest to be charged on delinquent taxes and utility charges in this Borough shall be as
follows:
On all delinquents to and including December 31, 2021, at the rate or rates heretofore governing, and
on all delinquents on and after January 1, 2021 at the rate of 8% per annum for and upon the first
$1,500 of the delinquency, the rate of 18% per annum for and upon any amount of the delinquency
in excess of $1,500; and the rate of 6% per annum for and upon any amount in excess of $10,000;
and that a grace period of 10 days will be allowed on taxes due February 1, May 1, August 1, and
November 1. If taxes are not paid by the 10th, interest shall be charged from the due date.
BE IT RESOLVED, that the collector of the Borough be and hereby directed to collect interest on all taxes
and utility charges accordingly.
It appears from an examination of the Collector’s records that interest was collected in accordance with the
foregoing resolution.
Delinquent Taxes and Tax Title Liens

For items not returned, alternative procedures were performed, as appropriate.
New Jersey Administrative Code Accounting Requirements
The Division of Local Government Services has established three (3) accounting requirements which are prescribed
in the New Jersey Administrative Code. They are as follows:
1.
Maintenance of an encumbrance accounting system.
2.
Fixed assets accounting and reporting system.
3.
General ledger accounting system.
The Borough is in compliance with these requirements.
Segregation of Duties
The Borough does not maintain an adequate segregation of duties with respect to the recording and treasury
functions. Segregation of duties refers to separating those functions that place too much control over a transaction
or class of transactions that would enable a person to perpetuate errors and prevent detection within a reasonable
period of time. The various departments/offices of the Borough are responsible for the issuance of permits and
licenses; collection of taxes, and permit and license fees; and recording of these collections. Also the deposit and
recording of receipts for the various funds, the reconciliation of the bank accounts, and the preparation of the general
ledger are all performed by the Chief Financial Officer. The disbursement of funds and the preparation of payroll
are performed by the Finance Clerk, however; the Chief Financial Officer currently oversees and is partially
involved in these duties. This is due, in part, to the limited number of personnel of the Borough and the decentralized
nature of governmental collection procedures. Accordingly, management and the Borough Council should be aware
of this situation and realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals
is not desirable from a control point of view.
Management’s Response
The finding was evaluated, however due to budgetary constraints no resolution can be made at this time.

Management Suggestions
Grants Receivable
During our review of federal and state grants, we noted that there are still a few grants receivable that are several
years old. It is suggested that the federal and state grants receivable continue to be reviewed to identify those grants
which will be collected and disbursed, and which grants should be canceled.
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statements
GASB Statement No. 87, Leases, is effective for the year ended December 31, 2022. Previously leases were either
categorized as capital leases or operating leases. This statement will likely affect most leases formerly classified as
operating leases. There will be required disclosures for leases for which the Borough is either a lessee or a lessor
although there will be no impact on the actual financial statements. It is likely that a lease software or similar
spreadsheets will need to be utilized to perform the various calculations necessary to implement this standard.

BOROUGH OF ROCKAWAY
COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
(Continued)
Management Suggestions (Cont'd)
COVID-19 Federal Funding
It is possible that the Borough will undergo some review of its COVID-19 funding by the federal government. We
strongly suggest that the Borough ensures that these funds are utilized in accordance with the applicable federal
requirements especially with respect to procurement. Additionally, we strongly suggest that the Borough ensures
that these funds are separately accounted for in the Borough’s accounting records and that any applicable Borough
policies are current with respect to federal grant requirements.
Because of the nature of these funds, being new programs, generally of a significant dollar amount, and some of
which may be expended over a period of years, they may be subject to federal or state audit several years from now.
It is important that the grant files maintained by local governments be complete, self-explanatory, and fully
document the program(s) undertaken as part of the funding.
Status of Prior Year Recommendations
The Borough has initiated a corrective action plan to resolve comments and recommendations from the 2020 audit
report. The recommendation regarding segregation of duties is included as current year recommendation as no
resolution can be made at this time due to budgetary constraints.
14
BOROUGH OF ROCKAWAY
SUMMARY OF RECOMMENDATIONS
It is recommended that:
1. An adequate segregation of duties be maintained with respect to the recording and treasury functions.
