The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The more significant of the Town's accounting policies are described below. A. Financial Reporting Entity: The Town of Groton, which was erected in 1817, is governed by the Town Law and other general municipal laws of the State of New York and various local laws. The Town Board is the legislative body responsible for overall operations; the Town Supervisor serves as chief executive officer and as chief fiscal officer. The following basic services are provided: fire protection, highways and streets, recreation, public improvements, planning and zoning, and general administration. All governmental activities and functions performed for the Town of Groton are its direct responsibility. No other governmental organizations have been included or excluded from the reporting entity. The financial reporting entity includes organizations, functions and activities over which elected officials exercise oversight responsibility. Oversight responsibility is determined on the basis of financial interdependency, selection of governing authority, designation of management, ability to influence operations and accountability for fiscal matters. B. Basis of Presentation — Fund Accounting: The accounts of the local government are organized on the basis of funds or account groups, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for within a separate set of self —balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund balance, revenues and expenditures which are segregated for the purpose of carrying on specific activities or attaining certain objectives in accordance with special regulations, restrictions or limitations. The various funds are summarized by type in the general-purpose financial statements. Certain funds of the Town are utilized to account for resources derived from, and/or expenditures applicable to an area less than the entire town. The following fund types and account groups are used: 1. Fund Categories: a. Governmental Funds: Governmental Funds are those through which most governmental functions are financed. The acquisition, use and balances of expendable financial resources and the related liabilities are accounted for through governmental funds. The measurement focus of the governmental funds is based upon determination of financial position and changes in financial position. The following are the Town of Groton's governmental fund types: General Fund: The general fund is the principal operating fund and includes all operations not required to be recorded in other funds. General Fund Part -Town: Used to record transactions which are required to be charged to the area of the Town outside the village. Special Revenue Funds: Used to account for the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditure for specified purposes. The following Special Revenue Funds are utilized: Highway Funds: (Townwide and Part -Town) established pursuant to Highway Law, Section 141, and used to account for revenues and expenditures for highway purposes. Highway Law, Section 277, requires that expenditures for repairs and improvements be financed by the area outside the village. Therefore, a town with a village must maintain two highway funds Special District Funds: (Lighting District and Fire Protection District) are used to record transactions for operations and maintenance for these activities. Special Grant Fund: used to account for Community Development Block Grants. Capital Projects Fund: The capital project fund is used to account for and report financial resources to be used for the acquisition, construction or renovation of major capital facilities, or equipment. b. Fiduciary Funds: used to account for assets held by the local government in a trustee or custodial capacity: Agency Funds — are used to account for money and/or property received and held in the capacity of trustee, custodian or agent. 2. Supplemental Schedules: Supplemental Schedules are used to establish accounting control and accountability for general fixed assets and general long-term debt. The two schedules are not "funds". They are concerned only with the measurement of financial position, and not results of operations. Schedule of Non Current Government Assets — used to account for land, buildings, improvements other than buildings, and equipment utilized for general government purposes. Schedule of Non Current Government Liabilities — used to account for all long-term debt. 2 C. Basis of Accounting/Measurement Focus Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures and the related assets and liabilities 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. Measurement focus is the determination of what is measured, i.e. expenditures or expenses. Modified Accrual Basis — all Governmental Funds are accounted for using the modified accrual basis of accounting. Under this basis of accounting, revenues are recorded when measurable and available. Available means collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to be used to pay liabilities of the current period. Material revenues that are accrued include real property taxes, state and federal aid, sales tax and certain user charges. If expenditures are the prime factor for determining eligibility, revenues from federal and state grants are accrued when the expenditure is made. Expenditures are recorded when incurred except: 1. Expenditures for prepaid expenses and inventory -type items are recognized at the time of the purchase. 2. Principal and interest on indebtedness are not recognized as an expenditure until due. 3. Compensated absences, such as sick leave which vests or accumulates, are charged as an expenditure when paid. (See Note 1-G) 4. Pension costs are recognized as an expenditure when billed by the state. See Note 2- B-1. Supplemental Schedules — General fixed assets are recorded at actual cost or estimated cost or, in the case of gifts and contributions, at the fair market value at the time received. No provision for depreciation is made. General long-term debt liabilities are recorded at the par value of the principal amount. No liability is recorded for interest payable to maturity. D. Property Taxes Real property taxes are levied annually by the Town of Groton no later than January 1, and become a lien on January 1. Taxes are collected during the period January 1, to May 31. The County of Tompkins in which the Town is located subsequently enforces uncollected real property taxes. An amount representing uncollected real property taxes transmitted to the county for enforcement is paid by the county to the Town no later than the forthcoming May 31. E. Budgetary Data 1. Budget Policies — The budget policies are as follows: a. No later than October 5, a tentative budget is submitted by the budget officer for the fiscal year commencing the following January 1. The tentative budget includes proposed expenditures and the proposed means of financing for all funds. b. After public hearings are conducted to obtain taxpayer comments no later than November 20, the governing board adopts the budget. c. All modifications of the budget must be approved by the governing board. 2. Encumbrances Encumbrance accounting, under which purchase orders, contracts and other commitments for the expenditure of monies are recorded for budgetary control purposes to reserve that portion of the applicable appropriations, is employed in the governmental funds. Encumbrances are reported as reservations of fund balances since they do not constitute expenditures or liabilities. Expenditures for such commitments are recorded in the period in which the liability is incurred. 3. Budget Basis of Accounting Budgets are adopted annually on a basis consistent with generally accepted accounting principles. Appropriations authorized for the current year are increased by the amount of encumbrances carried forward from the prior year. Budgetary controls for the special grant fund are established in accordance with the applicable grant agreement, which covers a period other than the Town of Groton's fiscal year. F. Property, Plant and Equipment — General Fixed assets purchased for general governmental purposes are recorded as expenditures in the governmental funds and are capitalized at cost in the Schedule of Non Current Government Assets. Contributed fixed assets are recorded at fair market value at the date received. Fixed assets consisting of certain infrastructure type improvements other than buildings, including roads, bridges, curbs and gutters, streets and sidewalks, drainage and lighting systems have not been capitalized. Such assets normally are immovable and of value only to the Town of Groton. Therefore, the purposes of stewardship for capital expenditures can be satisfied without recording these assets. No depreciation has been provided on general fixed assets. G. Vacation and Sick Leave and Compensated Absences Town of Groton employees are granted vacation and sick leave in varying amounts. In the event of termination or upon retirement, an employee is not entitled to payment for accumulated vacation time. However, sick leave can be accrued up to 960 hours which is payable upon termination or retirement. 4 The value of unused employee sick leave at year-end has been recorded in the Schedule of Non Current Government Liabilities. Payment of sick leave recorded in the Schedule of Non Current Government Liabilities is dependent upon many factors; therefore, timing of future payments is not readily determinable. However, management believes that sufficient resources will be made available for the payments of sick leave when such payment becomes due. H. Post Emplovment Benefits 1. The Town provides post-retirement health care benefits to all employees who retire on or after attaining at least 20 years of full time service and who are enrolled in the Plan at the time of retirement. 2. The Town has not employed the services of an actuary, thus has not booked a OPEB liability at this time. Note 2 — Detail Notes on All Funds and Supplemental Schedules A. Assets 1.

B. Liabilities: 1. Pension Plans: Plan Description The Town of Groton participates in the NYS & Local Employees' Retirement System. This System is a cost sharing multiple public employer retirement system. The system provides retirement benefits as well as death and disability benefits. Obligations of employers and employees to contribute and benefits to employees are governed by the NYS Retirement and Social Security Law (NYSRSSL). As set forth in the NYSRSSL, the Comptroller of the State of New York serves as sole trustee and administrative head of the System. The Comptroller shall adopt and may amend rules and regulations for the administration and transaction of the business of the System and for the custody and control of their statements and required supplementary information. That report may be obtained by writing to the NYS & Local Retirement Systems, 110 State Street, Albany, NY 12244. Fundinz Policv The Systems are noncontributory except for employees who joined the New York State and Local Employees' Retirement System: on or after July 27, 1976, who generally contribute 3% of their salary for the first ten years of membership, on or after January 1, 2010 (ERS) or January 9, 2010 (PFRS) who generally contribute 3% of their salary for the entire length of service, and on or after April 1, 2012 (ERS and PFRS) who generally contribute between 3% and 6% (based on annual wage) for the entire length of service. Under the authority of the NYSRSSL, the Comptroller annually certifies the actuarially determined rates expressed used in computing the employers' contributions based on salaries paid during the Systems' fiscal year ending March 31. Contributions for the current year and two preceding years were equal to 100% of the contributions required, and were as follows: ERS 2019 $931855 2018 $1045464 2017 $105,058 Chapter 260 of the Laws of 2004 of the State of New York was enacted that allows local employers to bond or amortize a portion of their retirement bill for up to 10 years in accordance with the following schedule: • For State fiscal year (SFY) 2004-05, the amount in excess of 7 percent of employees' covered pensionable salaries, with the first payment of those pension costs not due until the fiscal year succeeding that fiscal year in which the bonding/amortization was instituted. • For SFY 2005-06, the amount in excess of 9.5 percent of employees' covered pensionable salaries. • For SFY 2007-08, the amount in excess of 10.5 percent of employees' covered pensionable salaries. This law requires participating employers to make payments on a current basis, while bonding or amortizing existing unpaid amounts relating to the System's fiscal years ending March 31, 2005 through 2008. Chapter 57 of the Laws of 2010 of the State of New York was enacted that allows local employers to amortize a portion of their retirement bill for 10 years in accordance with the following stipulations: • For State fiscal year 2010-11, the amount in excess of the graded rate of 9.5 percent of employees' covered pensionable salaries, with the first payment of those pension costs not due until the fiscal year succeeding that fiscal year in which the amortization was instituted. • For subsequent State fiscal years, the graded rate will increase or decrease by up to one percent depending on the gap between the increase or decrease in the System's average rate and the previous graded rate. • The interest rate will be set annually, and will be comparable to taxable fixed income investments of a similar duration. ;ower For subsequent State fiscal years in which the System's average rates are than the graded rates, the employer will be required to pay the graded rate. Any additional contributions made will first be used to pay off existing amortizations, and then any excess will be deposited into a reserve account and will be used to offset future increases in contribution rates. This law requires participating employers to make payments on a current basis, while amortizing existing unpaid amounts relating to the System's fiscal years when the local employer opts to participate in the program. Chapter 105 of the Laws of 2010 of the State of New York authorizes local governments to make available a retirement benefit incentive program. The Town of Groton did not opt into this program. Chapter 57 of the Laws of 2013 of the State of New York was enacted that allows local employers to amortize a portion of their retirement bill for up to 12 years in accordance with the following stipulations: • The maximum amount an employer can amortize is the difference between the normal annual contribution (total bill, excluding payments for deficiency, group life, previous amortizations, incentive costs, and prior year adjustments) and the graded contribution. • For subsequent State fiscal years (SFVs), the graded rate will increase or decrease by up to one-half of one percent depending on the gap between the increase or decrease in the System's average rate and the previous graded rate. • The interest rate will be set annually, and will be comparable to a 12 -year US Treasury Bond plus 1 percent. • For subsequent SFYs in which the System's average rates are lower than the graded rates, the employer will be required to pay the graded rate. Any additional contributions made will first be used to pay off existing amortizations, and then any excess will be deposited into a reserve account and will be used to offset future increases in contribution rates. The Town of Groton has not amortized its payments to the Retirement System under any of the options listed above. At 12/31/19, the Town reported a liability of $89,252 for its proportionate share of the net pension liability. The net pension liability was measured as of March 31, 20191 and the total pension liability used to calculate the net pension liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date. The Town's proportion of the net pension liability was based on a projection of the Town's long-term share of contributions to the pension plan relative to the projected contributions of all participating members, actuarially determined. 8 2. Post —Employment Benefits: There are currently three retirees who meet the eligibility requirements. The Town pays 25% of the total premium of the Town medical insurance for the retirees. If the retirees attain private insurance through a plan not established by the Town, the Town will pay up to $204 per month to each retiree toward this medical insurance. The post -employment benefit expenses are recognized as the costs are incurred. As of December 31, 2019 expenses of $9,792 were recognized for post -employment health care. 3.
