M A�ZTE <br />&ASSO <br />INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT <br />To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council <br />of the City of Redwood City <br />Redwood City, California <br />Report on the Financial Statements <br />We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Utility User's Tax Fund (UUT Fund) of the City of <br />Redwood City, California (City), as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the <br />financial statements, as listed in the Table of Contents. <br />Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements <br />Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance <br />with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, <br />implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of the <br />financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. <br />Auditor's Responsibility <br />Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit <br />in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable <br />to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform <br />the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement. <br />An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial <br />statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of <br />material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the <br />auditor considers internal control relevant to the City's preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in <br />order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an <br />opinion on the effectiveness of the City's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also <br />includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting <br />estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. <br />We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit <br />opinion. <br />Accountancy Corporation <br />3478 Buskirk Avenue, Suite 215 <br />Pleasant Hill, CA 94523 <br />T 925.930.0902 <br />F 925.930.0135 <br />E maze@mazeassociates.com <br />w mazeassociates.com <br />43 <br />
