Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditors' Responsibility ‘Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. ‘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, Svite 400, Colorado Springs, CO 80903 C19) 630-1186 (719) 630-1187 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities and each major fund of the District as of December 31, 2016, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Report on Required Supplemental Information ‘Accounting prineiples generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management's discussion and analysis on pages 1 through 5 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the basic financial statements, is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board, who considers it to be an essential part of financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic or historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplemental information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the ‘methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements and other knowledge we obtained during our uidit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance. Report on Other Supplemental Information ur audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the District's basic financial statements. The supplemental schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part ofthe basic financial statements. ‘The supplemental schedules on pages 37 through 39 are the responsibility of management and were derived from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial statements or to the basic 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 basic financial statements as whole. Stockman Kast Ryan & @,, LLP July 27, 2017 MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS. CHEROKEE METROPOLITAN DISTRICT MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS ‘The Management Discussion and Analysis (MDJ&A) is presented to provide an overview of the financial activities and conditions for the fiscal year ended on December 31, 2016. ‘The MD&A contains information currently known to management as af the date of the auditor's report. The MD&A should be read in conjunction with the District's financial statements that accompany this report, FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS. Total Assets equaled: $112,903,779 for 2016. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments as of December 31, 2016 were $11,156,377, Total Liabilities for 2016, as of December 31, 2016, equaled $30,959,478. Net Position, as of December 31, 2016, totaled $81,944,301. Governmental change in Net Position from 2015 to 2016 totaled $117,768. ‘+ Business-type change in Net Position from 2015 to 2016 totaled $3,073,957. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ‘The financial statements consist of three parts - management discussion and analysis, the basic financial statements, and supplemental information. ‘The basic financial statements include two kinds of statements that present different views of the Distrit: + The first two are government-wide statements that provide both long-term and short-term information about the District's overall financial status. ‘+ The remaining statements are fund financial statements that focus on individual parts of the District government, reporting the District's operations in more detail than the government-wide statements. ‘The financial statements also include notes that explain some of the information in the financial statements and provide more detailed data. The statements are followed by a section of supplemental information that further explains and supports the information in the financial statements, Government-wide Statements — The government-wide statements consist of the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. These statements report information about the District as a whole and include all assets and liabilities using the accrual basis of accounting. All of the current year’s revenues ‘and expenses are taken into account regardless of when the cash is received or paid. These two statements report the District's net position and changes in them. The Districts net position, the difference between assets and liabilities, is one way to measure the District's financial status, or financial position. Over time increases or decreases in the District's net position is one indicator whether is financial health is improving or deteriorating. Fund Financial Statements — The fund financial statements provide more detailed information about the District's funds, focusing on its most significant funds, not the District as a whole. The District's two kinds of funds, governmental and proprietary, use different accounting approaches. 1 Governmental Funds — The activity of the District's General fund is reported as a governmental fund, which focuses on how money flows into and out of the General fund. ‘This fund is reported using the ‘modified acerual accounting method, which measures cash and all of the other financial assets that can readily be converted to cash. The governmental fund statement provides a detailed short-term view of the District's general governmental operations and the basic services it provides. Governmental fund information helps to determine whether there are more or less financial resources that can be spent in the near future to finance the District's programs. Proprietary (Enterprise) Funds — The activity of the District Enterprise funds isto report the same way that all activities are reported in the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities. In fact, the District's Enterprise fund is the same as the business-type activities reported in the governmental-wide statements but provides more detailed and additional information, such as cash flows District Specific — The Chetokee Metropolitan District utilizes two separate financial categories of activities; one for the general district functions and one for the enterprise, or business-type functions. Each of these, in tur, is segregated into operational and capital functions, Together, these comprise the overall ‘government-wide statements. ‘The Governmental, or general, category covers the public functions involving: street lighting and parks. The Proprietary, or Business-type, category involves the public provision of water, wastewater, reuse water, related administration, and golf course functions. The Governmental functions are funded by fees and conservation trust funds. ‘The Proprietary functions are funded by water and sewer user charges, tap fees, golf fees, and, similarly, bond financing when required for capital projects.

As of December 31, 2016 there are 7,235 residential taps and 594 commercial taps being serviced by the District.
