RE:
Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the
Year Ended December 31, 2015
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the Borough of Roosevelt, County of
Monmouth, State of New Jersey, is submitted herewith and includes financial statements and
supplemental schedules. I believe that it is accurate in all material respects; that it is presented
in a manner designed to set forth fairly the financial position and results of operations of the
Borough of Roosevelt as measured by the financial activity of its various funds and account
groups; and that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain maximum understanding
of the Borough's financial affairs have been included.
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is presented in four (4) sections:
Introductory, Financial, Statistical and Auditor's Comments and Recommendations.
The
Introductory Section includes this transmittal letter, the Borough's Organizational Chart and a
Roster of Officials.
The Financial Section includes the annual financial statements and
individual fund financial schedules, as well as the Independent Auditors' Report. The Statistical
Section includes selected financial, economic and demographic information, generally
presented on a multi-year basis.
Responsibility for completeness and clarity of the report,
including disclosures, rests with the Chief Financial Officer and ultimately with the Mayor and
Council. The fourth and final section is prepared by the Independent Auditor and contains their
required annual comments and recommendations, if any, to the Mayor and Council. The Mayor
and Council are required to adopt a plan of action on the implementation of any audit
recommendations.
The financial statements have been audited by Gerard Stankiewicz, CPA, RMA of Samuel Klein
and Company, Certified Public Accountants, whose opinion is expressed in the Financial
Section.
Please note that the Independent Auditors' Report on the regulatory basis is
unqualified and states that the financial statements - regulatory basis, are presented fairly in
conformity with the basis of accounting as prescribed by the Division of Local Government
Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey.

PRESENT AND FUTURE CHALLENGES
During the 2015 calendar year, the Borough of Roosevelt has made progress in a number of
operational and financial areas; however, this administration is clearly aware of the issues and
problems that continue to demand our attention and improvement. While we take pride in the
accomplishments of the past year, we are mindful of the issues that continue to face us.
CURRENT FUND
In 2015, our Current Fund, which encompasses the general government functions of the
Borough had revenues, exclusive of fund balance utilized of $1,185,725.34 and expenditures of
$1,087,465.50 and an increase of $3,892.70 in fund balance at year-end. The Current Fund
total revenues increased approximately 4.55% or $66,038.61, compared to 2014 caused
primarily by increases in miscellaneous revenues and other credits.

For the foreseeable future, our elected and appointed leaders will have to deal with the need to
maintain stable tax rates, and deal with serious water-sewer infrastructure problems.
The
governing body and the administration will have to introduce new ideas and creative solutions to
solve these problems.
The remainder of this transmittal letter will provide greater details relating to our progress during
2015 and some of our plans for the future.

STATUTORY AUTHORITY
The Borough is organized and administered in accordance with the provisions of New Jersey
State Law and consists of an elected Mayor and a six (6) member Council responsible for
providing all basic governmental services, except education, to its 882 local residents.
The Borough, pursuant to law, has the authority to levy taxes and issue debt.
In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, as
prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, the Borough, for reporting entity
determination purposes, is considered an independent government entity.
-4-
MAJOR ACTIVITIES AFFECTING BUDGET/FINANCIAL CONDITIONS
The Borough Council is actively involved in all decisions of the operation of the Borough and
has expressed a genuine concern for all residents.
The Governing Body is consistently
searching for new and innovative ways to provide cost efficient services to its residents.
The Borough maintains its own Water-Sewer Treatment Plant.
The Borough's Water-Sewer Utility Budget is always under review and evaluation of the user
charges to support the budget is done frequently in order for the utility to remain solvent. Major
repairs and upkeep are done after careful scrutiny and with great concern by the Borough's
Governing Body.
The Borough also annually appropriates funds for road reconstruction; however, the funding
mix usually includes NJDOT grants.
The Borough offers a recreation program for various activities. The Borough offers a summer
camp program for children of the Borough. Starting in 2016 the program was expanded to after
care.
The Borough provides for emergency response dispatching through Monmouth County 911.
The Borough of Roosevelt is unique in that it was designated as a historic district by the State
of New Jersey since the forefathers of the town were part of a social experiment in the 1930's
post-depression era.
The Borough is trying to maintain the charming character of the
community as the millennium began.
The Borough is also known for many of its artistic
residents.
The Borough is a participant in the State of New Jersey Environmental Infrastructure Trust
(NJEIT), a low interest loan program which is utilized to do major repairs to the Borough water
tower.
CASH MANAGEMENT
Bank balances are insured up to $250,000.00 in the aggregate by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation for each bank.
In addition, the State of New Jersey Unit Deposit
Protection Act insures the remaining balance of funds on deposit in registered depositories. At
December 31, 2015, all cash funds on deposit were in registered depositories and were
covered by these insurers.
The Borough invests all surplus funds for appropriate periods of time as determined by the
Chief Financial Officer. During 2015, idle funds were invested in a money market fund. The
Chief Financial Officer of the Borough monitors available cash balances for investment on an
ongoing basis in order to maximize earnings on invested cash. The Borough has not entered
into any compensating balance agreements.
- 5-
ACCOUNTING AND BUDGET INFORMATION
Accounting
The Borough maintains a computerized accounting system to record all financial transactions.
In developing and evaluating the Borough's accounting system, consideration is given to the
adequacy of internal accounting controls. Internal accounting controls are designed to provide
reasonable, but not absolute, assurance regarding: (1) the safeguarding of assets against loss
from unauthorized use or disposition; and (2) the reliability of financial records for preparing
financial statements and maintaining accountability for assets.
The concept of reasonable
assurance recognizes that (1) the cost of controls should not exceed the benefits expected to
be derived; and (2) the evaluation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgment by
management.
Management of the Borough is responsible for establishing and maintaining an adequate
internal control structure.
Budget
The local budget law for the State of New Jersey requires every local unit to adopt an Operating
Budget in the form required by the Division of Local Government Services (the "Division"),
Department of Community Affairs of the State of New Jersey. Certain items of revenue and
appropriation are regulated by law and the proposed budget must be certified by the Director of
the Division prior to final adoption. The Budget Law requires each local unit to appropriate
sufficient funds for the payment of current debt service, and the Director is required to review
the adequacy of such appropriations, unless a specific amount is required by law. The review
function, focusing on anticipated revenues, serves to protect the solvency of all local units.
Section 5:30-4 of the New Jersey Administrative Code provides that every local unit that
proposes to spend $25,000.00 or more on capital equipment, construction or improvements
must prepare a Capital Budget.
If the Borough's population exceeds 10,000, the Capital
Program shall include by title all projects anticipated for the budget year and the five
succeeding years, with the estimated costs and the anticipated financing by sources and
amounts.
A Capital Budget Section included with the Annual Budget does not in itself confer any
authorization to raise or expend funds. Rather, it is a document used as part of the local unit's
planning and management program.
Specific authorization to expend funds for purposes
described in the Capital Budget must be granted separately, through the adoption of a bond
ordinance, by appropriating funds from the Capital Improvement Fund, or other lawful means.
The budget of the Borough is categorized into appropriations by function. Each appropriation
represents a service program or division within the Borough. Funds are appropriated to each of
the budget lines by the Mayor and Council in accordance with procedures prescribed by the
State of New Jersey Local Budget Law.
-6-
Distinct appropriations are required for "salaries and wages" and for "other expenses". The
Borough delineates each appropriation into sub accounts by budget codes.
The Chief Financial Officer monitors expenditures throughout the fiscal year to ensure that
spending remains within the amounts of funds authorized. Budget modifications are processed
in the last two months of the year to transfer funds from one area to another as needed.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
The authorized bonded indebtedness of municipalities in the State of New Jersey is limited by
statute to an amount equal to 3 1/2% of their equalized value. The equalized valuation basis of
the Borough is set by statute as the average for the last three years of the equalized value of all
taxable real property and improvements and certain railroad property within its boundaries as
annually determined by the State Board of Taxation.
The Borough has gross debt authorized and outstanding of $4,506,779.28 of which
$4,214,529.28 is attributed to the Water-Sewer Utility and $292,250.00 is attributed to the
General Capital Fund.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Borough, like many other municipalities in the early '80's, was faced with an insurance
crisis. It was unable to obtain coverage at any price. The Borough banded together with other
municipalities to form the Monmouth County Municipal Joint Insurance and the New Jersey
Municipal Excess Liability Funds. These Funds procure insurance on a pooled basis, generally
self-insuring the initial level of loss for workers' compensation, property, general liability and
automobile. The Funds provide their members with risk management services, including the
defense of and settlement of claims and establish reasonable and necessary loss reduction and
prevention procedures to be followed by the members.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
The preparation of this report on a timely basis could not be accomplished without the efficient
and dedicated services of the entire staff of the Administration Department and the Finance
Department. I would also like to express my appreciation to Gerard Stankiewicz, CPA, RMA of
Samuel Klein and Company for his help and assistance in preparation of the Borough's CAFR.
Respectfully submitted,
George Lang

We have audited the financial statements - regulatory basis of the various funds and account
groups of the Borough of Roosevelt, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey as of December

basis for the year then ended, the related statement of revenues - regulatory basis, statement
of expenditures - regulatory basis, and the related notes to the financial statements for the year
then ended.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial
statements -
regulatory basis, in accordance with accounting principles and practices
prescribed by the Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs,
State of New Jersey; 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 these financial statements - regulatory basis,
based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits
contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT (CONTINUED)
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 opinions.
Basis for Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
As described in Note 1 of the financial statements - regulatory basis, the financial statements
are prepared by the Borough on a basis of the financial reporting provisions of the regulatory
basis of the accounting and budget laws of the Division of Local Government Services,
Department of Community Affairs, State of Jersey which is a basis of accounting other than
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, to meet the
requirements of the State 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.
Adverse Opinion on U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
In our opinion, because of the significance of the matters discussed in the "Basis for Adverse
Opinion on the United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles" paragraph, the
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
of the Borough of Roosevelt, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey as of December 31,
2015, and change in financial position or cash flows thereof for the year then ended.
Opinion on Regulatory Basis of Accounting
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects
the financial statements - regulatory basis of the various funds and account groups of the
Borough of Roosevelt, County of Monmouth, State of New Jersey, as of December 31, 2015,
and the results of its operations and change in fund balance of such funds - regulatory basis for
the year then ended, and the revenues - regulatory basis, expenditures - regulatory basis of
the various funds and account groups for the year ended December 31, 2015 in conformity with
accounting principles and practices prescribed by the Division of Local Government Services,
Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey as described in Note 1.

Other Matters
Report on Supplementary Information
Our audit was made for the purpose of forming an op1mon on the financial statements -
regulatory basis referred to in the first paragraph as a whole.
The supplemental financial
statements presented for the various funds are presented for purposes of additional analysis as
required by the Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State
of New Jersey and is not a required part of the above 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 financial statements. Such information has
been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and
certain additional procedures, including comparing the reconciling such information directly to
the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the 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 of each of the
respective individual funds and account group taken as a whole.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated July
27, 2016, on our consideration of the Borough of Roosevelt'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 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 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 of Roosevelt's internal control
over financial reporting and compliance.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 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
The Honorable Mayor and Members
of the Borough Council
Borough of Roosevelt
County of Monmouth
State of New Jersey
To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the Borough Council:
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America, the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government
Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States and audit
requirements as prescribed by the Division of Local Government Services, Department of
Community Affairs, State of New Jersey, the financial statements - regulatory basis of the
Borough of Roosevelt (herein referred to as "the Borough"), as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2015, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively
comprise the Borough's basic financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated
July 27, 2016.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements -
regulatory basis, we
considered the Borough's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine
the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our
opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Borough's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on
the effectiveness of the Borough's internal control.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS 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 (CONTINUED)
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow
management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to
prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a
deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented,
or detected and corrected on a timely basis.
A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet
important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph
of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be
material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did
not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses.
However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Borough's financial statements -
regulatory basis are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with
certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, noncompliance with which could
have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However,
providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and,
accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances
of noncompliance that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.
However, we noted certain immaterial instances of non-compliance that we have reported to the
management of the Borough in the "General Comments and Recommendations" section of this
report.
This report is intended solely for the information of the governing body, management and the
Division of Local Government Services, Department of Community Affairs, State of New Jersey
and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Trust Funds - The various Trust Funds account for receipts, custodianship
and disbursement of funds in accordance with the purpose for which each
reserve was created.
The Trust Other Fund, Animal Control Fund and
Payroll Trust Fund are part of this Trust.
General Capital Fund - The General Capital Fund accounts for receipt and
disbursement of funds for the acquisition of general capital facilities, other
than those acquired in the Current Fund. General bonds and notes payable
are recorded in this fund and are offset by deferred charges to future taxation.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
B. Description of Funds (Continued)
Utility Fund - The Water-Sewer Utility maintains an Operating Fund and a
Capital Fund which reflect revenue, expenditures, stewardship, acquisitions
of utility infrastructure and other capital facilities, debt service, long-term debt
and other related activity.
Payroll Trust Fund - Net salaries, certain payroll deductions and social
security contributions of municipal and utility operations are deposited into
bank accounts of the Payroll Fund. Other deductions are retained by the
operating funds and paid directly there from. A Payroll Fund does not exist
under GAAP.
Capital Asset Accounts - These accounts reflect estimated valuations of land,
buildings and certain moveable fixed assets of the Borough as discussed
under the caption of "Basis of Accounting".
C. Basis of Accounting - The accounting principles and practices prescribed for
municipalities by the Division of Local Government Services, Department of
Community Affairs, State of New Jersey, differ in certain respects from
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
(GAAP). The accounting system is maintained on the modified accrual basis
with certain exceptions.
Significant accounting policies in New Jersey are
summarized as follows:
Property Taxes and Other Revenue- Property Taxes and other revenue are
realized when collected in cash or approved by regulation for accrual from
certain sources of the State of New Jersey and the Federal Government.
Accruals of taxes and other revenue are otherwise deferred as to realization
by the establishment of offsetting reserve accounts. GAAP requires such
revenue to be recognized in the accounting period when they become
susceptible to accrual, reduced by an allowance for doubtful accounts.
Grant Revenue - Federal and State grants, entitlements or shared revenue
received for purposes normally financed through the Current Fund are
recognized when anticipated in the Borough of Roosevelt's budget. GAAP
requires such revenue to be recognized in the accounting period when they
become susceptible to accrual.
Expenditures - Expenditures for general and utility operations are generally
recorded on the accrual basis. Unexpended appropriation balances, except
for amounts which may have been canceled by the governing body or by
statutory regulation, are automatically recorded as liabilities at December 31
51
of each year, under the title of "Appropriation Reserves".

C. Basis of Accounting (Continued)
Expenditures (Continued)
Grant appropriations are charged upon budget adoption to create spending
reserves.
Budgeted transfers to the Capital Improvement Fund are recorded as
expenditures to the extent permitted by law.
Expenditures from Trust and Capital Funds are recorded upon occurrence
and charged to accounts statutorily established for specific purposes.
Budget Appropriations for interest on General Capital Long-Term Debt is
raised on the cash basis and is not accrued on the records; interest on Utility
Debt is raised on the accrual basis and so recorded.
GAAP requires expenditures to be recognized in the accounting period in
which the fund liability is incurred, if measurable, except for unmatured
interest on general long-term debt, which should be recognized when due.
Encumbrances - As of January 1, 1986 all local units were required by
Technical Accounting Directive No. 85-1, as promulgated by the Division of
Local Government Services, to maintain an encumbrance accounting system.
The directive states that contractual orders outstanding at December 31 are
reported as expenditures through the establishment of an encumbrance
payable. Encumbrances do not constitute expenditures under GAAP.
Appropriation Reserves - Appropriation reserves are available, until lapsed at
the close of the succeeding year, to meet specific claims, commitments or
contracts incurred during the preceding year. Lapsed appropriation reserves
are recorded as additions to income. Appropriation reserves do not exist
under GAAP.
Compensated Absences - Expenditures relating to obligations for unused
vested accumulated sick, vacation and compensatory pay are not recorded
until paid. GAAP requires that the amount that would normally be liquidated
with expendable available financial resources be recorded as an expenditure
in the operating funds and the remaining obligations be recorded as a long-
term obligation.

C. Basis of Accounting (Continued)
Property Acquired for Taxes - Property Acquired for Taxes (Foreclosed
Property) is recorded in the Current Fund at the assessed valuation during
the year when such property was acquired by deed or foreclosure and is
offset by a corresponding reserve account. GAAP requires such property to
be recorded in the capital assets account group at market value on the date
of acquisition.
lnterfund Accounts Receivable - lnterfund Accounts Receivable in the Current
Fund are generally recorded with offsetting reserves which are established by
charges to operations. Collections are recognized as income in the year that
the receivables are realized. lnterfund Accounts Receivable of all other funds
are recorded as accrued and are not offset with reserve accounts. lnterfund
Accounts Receivable of one fund are offset with lnterfund Accounts Payable
of the opposite fund.
GAAP does not require the establishment of an
offsetting reserve.
Inventories of Supplies - Materials and supplies purchased by all funds are
recorded as expenditures.
An annual inventory of materials and supplies for the Water-Sewer Utility is
required, by regulation, to be prepared by Borough personnel for inclusion on
the Water-Sewer Utility Operating Fund balance sheet. Annual changes in
valuations, offset with a Reserve Account, are not considered as affecting
results of operations.
Materials and supplies of other funds are not
inventoried nor included on their respective balance sheets.
Capital Assets
General - In accordance with Technical Accounting Directive No. 85-2,
Accounting for Governmental Capital Assets, as promulgated by the
Division of Local Government Services, which differs in certain respects
from GAAP, the Borough of Roosevelt has developed a capital asset
accounting and reporting system.
GAAP requires that fixed assets be capitalized at historical or estimated
historical cost if actual historical cost is not available. Depreciation on
utility fixed assets should also be recorded.
Capital assets used in governmental operations (capital assets) are
accounted for in the Capital Asset Accounts.
Public domain
("infrastructure") capital assets consisting of certain improvements other
than buildings, such as roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and
sidewalks and drainage systems are not capitalized.

The State of New Jersey Cash Management Fund is authorized by statute and
regulations of the State Investment Council to invest in fixed income and debt
securities which mature or are redeemed within one year. Twenty-five percent of
the Fund may be invested in eligible securities which mature within two years
provided, however, the arbitrage maturity of all investments in the Fund shall not
exceed one year. Collateralization of Fund investments is generally not required.
In addition, by regulation of the Division of Local Government Services,
municipalities are allowed to deposit funds in the Municipal Bond Insurance
Association (MBIA) through their investment management company, the
Municipal Investors Service Corporation.
In accordance with the provisions of the Governmental Unit Deposit Protection
Act of New Jersey ("GUDPA"), public depositories are required to maintain
collateral for deposits of public funds that exceed insurance limits as follows:
The market value of the collateral must equal five percent of the average
daily balance of public funds or
If the public funds deposited exceed 75 percent of the capital funds of the
depository, the depository must provide collateral having a market value
equal to 100 percent of the amount exceeding 75 percent.
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 $25,000,000.00.
As of December 31, 2015, the Borough had funds on deposit in interest bearing
checking accounts. The amount of the Borough's cash and cash equivalents on
deposits as of December 31, 2015 was $1,480,029.19. These funds constitute
"deposits with financial institutions" as defined by GASB Statement No. 3 as

TAXES AND TAX TITLE LIENS RECEIVABLE
Property assessments are determined on true values and taxes are assessed based
upon these values.
The residential tax bill includes the levies for the Borough,
County and School purposes.
Certified adopted budgets are submitted to the
County Board of Taxation by each taxing district. The tax rate is determined by the
Board upon the filing of these budgets.
The tax bills are mailed by the Tax Collector annually in June and are payable in four
quarterly installments due the first of August and November of the current year and a
preliminary billing due the first of February and May of the subsequent year. The
August and November billings represent the third and fourth quarter installments and
are calculated by taking the total year tax levy less the preliminary first and second
quarter installments due February and May. The preliminary levy is based on one-
half of the current year's total tax.
Tax installments not paid by the above due dates are subject to interest penalties
determined by a resolution of the governing body. The rate of interest in accordance
with the aforementioned resolution is 8% per annum on the first $1,500.00 of
delinquency and 18% on any delinquency in excess of $1 ,500.00. The governing
body may also fix a penalty to be charged to a taxpayer with a delinquency in excess
of $10,000.00 who fails to pay that delinquency as billed prior to the end of the fiscal
year. The penalty so fixed shall not exceed 6% of the amount of the delinquency
with respect to each most recent fiscal year only. The resolution also sets a grace
period of ten days before interest is calculated.
Taxes unpaid on the 11th day of the eleventh month in the fiscal year when the taxes
became in arrears are subject to the tax sale provisions of the New Jersey statutes.
The municipality may institute in rem foreclosure proceedings after six months from
the date of the sale if the lien has not been redeemed.
The following is a five-year comparison of certain statistical information relative to
property taxes and property tax collections for the current and previous four years.

Plan Description
Substantially all of the Borough's employees participate in the Public Employees'
Retirement System (PERS). This system is sponsored and administered by the New
Jersey Division of Pensions and Benefits.
The Public Employees' Retirement
System is considered to be a cost sharing multiple-employer plan.
Public Employees' Retirement System
The Public Employees' Retirement System (PERS) was established January 1,
1955 under the provisions of N.J.S.A. 43:15A to provide coverage, including
post-retirement health care, to substantially all full-time employees of the State or
any county, municipality, school district or public agency provided the employee
is not a member of another State-administered retirement system. Membership
is mandatory for such employees and vesting occurs after eight to ten years of
service and twenty-five years for health care coverage. Members are eligible for
retirement at age sixty with an annual benefit generally determined to be 1/60th
of the average annual compensation for the highest three fiscal years'
compensation for each year of membership during years of creditable service.
Early retirement is available to those under age sixty with twenty-five or more
years of credited service. Pension benefits for members enrolled in the system
after May 21, 2010 would be based on 1/601h of the average annual
compensation for the last five (5) years of service or any five (5) fiscal years of
membership that provide the largest benefit to the member of the member's
beneficiary.
Anyone who retires early and is under age fifty-five receives
retirement benefits as calculated in the above-mentioned formula but at a
reduced rate (one quarter of one percent for each month the member lacks of
attaining age fifty-five).

Significant Legislation
P.L. 2011, c.78, effective June 28, 2011 made various changes to the manner in
which PERS operates and to the benefit provisions of that system.
This new legislation's provisions impacting employee pension and health benefits
include:
•
New members of PERS hired on or after June 28, 2011 (Tier 5
members), will need 30 years of creditable service and age 65 for receipt
of the early retirement benefit without a reduction of X to 1 percent for
each month that the member is under age 65.
•
The eligibility age to qualify for a service retirement in the PERS is
increased from age 62 to 65 for Tier 5 members.
•
The annual benefit under special retirement for new PERS members
enrolled after June 28, 2011 (Tier 3 members), will be 60 percent instead
of 65 percent of the member's final compensation plus 1 percent for each
year of creditable service over 25 years but not to exceed 30 years.
•
Active member contribution rates will increase.
PERS active member
rates increase from 5.5 percent of annual compensation to 6.5 percent
plus an additional 1 percent phased-in over 7 years. For fiscal year 2012,
the member contribution rates increased in October 2011. The phase-in
of the additional incremental member contributions for PERS members
will take place in July of each subsequent fiscal year.
•
The payment of automatic cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) additional
increases to current and future retirees and beneficiaries is suspended
until reactivated as permitted by this law.
In addition, this new legislation changes the method for amortizing the pension
systems' unfunded accrued liability (from a level percent of pay method to a level
dollar of pay).

Pension (PERS) Accrual
The Borough is required to report on its financial statements on an "Other
Comprehensive Basis of Accounting" (OCBOA) Regulatory Basis, which does not
require an accrual for its obligations inclusive of pension.
If the Borough were
required to reflect the obligation under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
(GAAP) then an accrual for the PERS obligation due April 1, 2016 would be needed
in the amount of $12,961 since the obligation relates to the period December 31,
2015 and prior. The accrual would affect the fund balance at yearend.

(measurement date of June 30, 2015) and December 31, 2014 (measurement
date of June 30, 2014), respectively. The net pension liability was measured as
of June 30, 2015 and June 30, 2014 and the total pension liability used to
calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of
those dates. The Borough's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a

Actuarial Assumptions
The total pension liability for the June 30, 2015 measurement date was
determined by an actuarial valuation as of July 1, 2014, which rolled forward to
June 30, 2015. The total pension liability for the December 31, 2015
measurement date was determined by an actuarial valuation as of June 30,
2015. This actuarial valuation used the following assumptions, applied to all
periods in the measurement.
Inflation
Salary Increases:
2012-2021
Thereafter
Investment Rate of Return
3.04 Percent
2.15-4.40 Percent (based on age)
3.15-5.40 Percent (based on age)
7. 90 Percent
The actuarial assumptions used in the June 30, 2015 valuation were based on
the results of an actuarial experience study for the period July 1, 2010 to June
30, 2013.

Mortality Tables (setback one year for males and females) for service retirement
and
beneficiaries
of former

with
adjustments
for
mortality
improvements from the base year of 2012 based on Projection Scale AA. The
RP-2000 Disabled Mortality Tables (setback 3 years for males and setback 1
year for females) are used to value disabled retirees.
Long-Term Rate of Return
In accordance with State statute, the long-term expected rate of return on plan
investments 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's target asset
allocation as of June 30, 2015 are summarized in the following table:

The discount rate used to measure the total pension liability was 4.90% as of
June 30, 2015. This single blended discount rate was based on the long-term
expected rate of return on pension plan investments of 7.9%, and a municipal
bond rate of 3.80% as of June 30, 2015 based on 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. 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 will be made based on the average of the last five
years of contributions made in relation to the last five years of recommended
contributions. Based on those assumptions, the plan's fiduciary net position was
projected to be available to make projected future benefit payments of current
plan members through 2033. Therefore, the long-term expected rate of return on
plan investments was applied to projected benefit payments through 2033, and
the municipal bond rate was applied to projected benefit payments after that date
in determining the total pension liability.

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
The Borough of Roosevelt offers its employees a Deferred Compensation Plan
created in accordance with the provisions of N.J.S. 43:15B-1 et seq., and the Internal
Revenue Code, Section 457.
The Plan, available to all municipal 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.
The "Small Business Job Protective Act of 1996" modified several provisions of
Section 457 of the Internal Revenue Code. The most significant change in the law
related to the ownership of the fund.
All amounts of compensation deferred under the Plan, all property and rights
purchased with those amounts, and all income attributable to those amounts,
property or rights are (until paid or made available to the employee or other
beneficiary) solely the property and rights of the employees.
The Deferred
Compensation Plan is administered by the Equitable Life Assurance Company.

RISK MANAGEMENT
The Borough together with other governmental units are members of the Monmouth
County Municipal Joint Insurance Fund (the "Fund"). The Fund, which is organized
and operated pursuant to the regulatory authority of the Departments of Insurance
and Community Affairs, State of New Jersey, provides for a pooling of risks, subject
to established limits and deductibles.
In addition, the Fund has obtained cost
effective reinsurance and excess liability coverages for participant local units.

RISK MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)
For the year ending December 31, 2015, the Fund provided coverage for Property,
Boiler and Machinery, Automobile, General Liability, Workmen's Compensation and
Public Employee Blanket Bond.
The Borough has contracted with a private insurance carrier related to public
officials' surety bond coverage and public officials' liability insurance. The coverage
is subject to certain policy limits and deductible amounts. The coverage is designed
to minimize the impact of any potential losses to the Borough for matters which may
have been caused or related to the Borough or its employees.
The Borough's
employees are covered through the State of New Jersey Health Benefits Program.
Note 14.
CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
A. Litigation
There are no matters of litigation that would, in the result of an adverse opinion, have
a material impact on the financial condition of the Borough.
B. Grants
The Borough of Roosevelt participates in federally and state assisted grant
programs.
These programs are subject to program compliance audits by the
grantors or their representatives. The Borough is potentially liable for expenditures
which may be disallowed pursuant to the terms of these grant programs.
Management is not aware of any material items of noncompliance which would result
in the disallowance of program expenditures.
C. Compensated Absences
The Borough allows employees to carryover unused vacation days at the end of the
year. The amount of liability is minimal. Unused sick time does not accumulate and
therefore no liability exists as of December 31,2015.
D. State Tax Appeals
There was one state tax appeal pending at December 31, 2015. The outcome as of
the date of this report has not been determined; however, in the event of an adverse
ruling it is not expected to have a negative impact on the financial condition of the
Borough.

AUDITOR'S COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
GENERAL COMMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2015
Contracts And Agreements Required To Be Advertised For N.J.S. 40A:11-4
N.J.S. 40A:11-4 states "Every contract or agreement, for the performance of any work or the
furnishing or hiring of any materials or supplies, the cost or the contract price whereof is to be
paid with or out of public funds not included within the terms of Section 3 of this act, shall be
made or awarded only after public advertising for bids and bidding therefore, except as is
provided otherwise in this act or specifically by any other law. No work, materials or supplies
shall be undertaken, acquired or furnished for a sum exceeding in the aggregate of $17,500.00
in the absence of a Qualified Purchasing Agent ("QPA"), except by contract or agreement."
The governing body of the Municipality has the responsibility of determining whether the
expenditures in any category will exceed $17,500.00 within the fiscal year. Where questions
arise 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.
The minutes indicate that bids were requested by public advertising for the year as follows:
Improvements to South Valley Road
Removal and Hauling of Liquid Sludge
The minutes indicate that resolutions were adopted and advertised 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.
Our examination of expenditures did not reveal any individual payments, contracts or
agreements in excess of $17,500.00 "for the performance of any work or the furnishing or hiring
of any materials or supplies" other than those where bids had been previously sought by public
advertisement or where a resolution had been previously adopted under the provision of N.J.S.
40A:11-6.
The governing body, on January 5, 2015, adopted the following resolution authorizing interest to
be charged on delinquent taxes, water-sewer charges and assessments:
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Roosevelt are empowered, pursuant
to N.J.S.A. 54:4-67, to fix the rate of interest to be charged for nonpayment of taxes and
other municipal charges; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Roosevelt find the assessment of
interest against delinquent municipal taxes and other charges will encourage prompt
payment of the same by property owners, resulting in more efficient collection of
revenues by the Borough of Roosevelt; and
- 123-
GENERAL COMMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2015
Collection of Interest on Delinquent Taxes and Utility Charges
WHEREAS, the Mayor and Council of the Borough of Roosevelt find that it is in the best
interest of the citizens of the Borough of Roosevelt to assess such interest.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Mayor and Council of the Borough of
Roosevelt, in the County of Monmouth and State of New Jersey, that the Tax Collector is
hereby authorized to charge the maximum legal rate of interest allowed pursuant to
N.J.S.A. 54:4-67 for delinquencies as defined therein, as may be amended and
supplemented from time to time, which rates presently are as follows:
Eight percent (8%) interest on delinquencies up to one thousand five hundred
dollars ($1,500.00);
Eighteen percent ( 18%) interest on delinquencies equal to or greater than one
thousand five hundred dollars and one cent ($1,500.01)
provided that no interest shall be charged on payment if any installment is made ten (1 0)
calendar days following the date upon when the installment becomes payable.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that where any delinquency as defined in N.J.S.A. 54:4-
67, is in excess of ten thousand dollars ($10,000.00}, the Borough of Roosevelt Tax
Collector is hereby authorized to impose the penalty thereon at a minimum legal rate of
interest allowed pursuant to N.J.S.A. 54:4, as may be amended and supplemented from
time to time, which penalty is presently six percent (6%).
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Borough of Roosevelt Water-Sewer Collector is
hereby authorized to charge the maximum rate of interest allowed by law for the water-
sewer delinquencies, as may be amended and supplemented from time to time, which
rates are presently as follows:
0.0067% per month interest on delinquencies up to one thousand five hundred
dollars and one cent ($1,500.01 );
0.0150% per month on delinquencies equal to or greater than one thousand five
hundred dollars and one cent ($1,500.01)
provided that no interest be charged if payment of any installments were made within ten
(1 0) calendar days following the date upon when payable.
The intent of the resolution was to charge 0.67% per month up to $1,500.01 and 1.50% per
month over $1,500.01. This matter should be reviewed and correction made.
It appears from an examination of the Tax Collector and the Water-Sewer Collector records that
interest was collected in accordance with the foregoing resolution.

GENERAL COMMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31 I 2015
Delinquent Taxes and Tax Title Liens
The detail of all unpaid taxes for 2015 is being properly carried in the Tax Collector's records.

GENERAL COMMENTS (CONTINUED)
DECEMBER 31, 2015
Miscellaneous Comments
The confirmation sent to the Local Board of Education verified that the school taxes payable at
December 31, 2015 was correct.
Surety Bond Coverage
It appears as though the surety bond coverage for the Tax Collector, Water-Sewer Collector and
Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Municipal Court are adequate.
Municipal Court
The Borough of Roosevelt has an lnterlocal Services Agreement with the Township of Millstone
to provide Municipal Court administration services. The Township of Millstone Court personnel
handle all operations of the Borough of Roosevelt Municipal Court. A separate report has been
issued on the Borough of Roosevelt's portion of their operation.
Minutes of Governing Body Meetings
During 2015 the minutes of the governing body for several meetings were not prepared.
Resolution and ordinance books were maintained in the normal course of Borough business.
We have been advised that subsequent to the yearend, the minutes were in the process of
being prepared for governing body approval.
Technical Directives- State of New Jersey
The general ledger for 2015 was maintained in accordance with acceptable accounting control
standards. A complete encumbrance system for budgetary purposes was maintained during
2015. A fixed assets detail was maintained in 2015.
I nterfund Receivable/Payable
There are interfunds that relate to the water-sewer utility capital fund that were caused by
expenditures paid on behalf of the fund by other funds which are pending receipt of the NJEIT
permanent financing. The other interfund represents amounts due to the Grant Fund which
does not have a checking account. The interfunds are expected to be liquidated once the
NJEIT loan is closed.
Other Matters
The contents of this audit report have been discussed at an exit conference, with the
appropriate Borough Officials, in accordance with the auditing standards general accepted in
the United States of America for governmental audits.

None.
The problems and weaknesses noted in my audit were not of such magnitude that they would
affect my ability to express an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole.
Should any questions arise as to my comments, please do not hesitate to call me.
Very truly yours,
Gerard Stankiewicz
