Mayor and City Council
City of Port Orchard
Port Orchard, Washington
We have audited, 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 States, the financial statements of the
City of Port Orchard, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes to the
financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's financial statements, and have issued
our report thereon dated April 16, 2026.
We issued an unmodified opinion on the fair presentation of the City's financial statements in
accordance with its regulatory basis of accounting. We issued an adverse opinion on the fair
presentation with regard to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAP) because the financial statements are prepared by the City using accounting
practices prescribed by state law and the State Auditor's Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting
System (BARS) manual described in Note 1, which is a basis of accounting other than GAAP. The
effects on the financial statements of the variances between the 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.
REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL ER FINANCIAL
REPORTING
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City'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 City's
internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City's
internal control.
Office of the Washington State Auditor sao.wa.gov Page 4
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 City'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 above 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 were not identified.
Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control
that we consider to be material weaknesses.
REPORT ON COMPLIANCEAND T .. ER MATTERS
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the City's financial statements are free
from 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.
PURPOSE OFTHIS RT
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
City'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 City's internal control and
compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose. However, this
Office of the Washington State Auditor sao.wa.gov Page 5
report is a matter of public record and its distribution is not limited. It also serves to disseminate
information to the public as a reporting tool to help citizens assess government operations.

REPORT AUDIT F THE IA. CIA.d STATEMENTS
Unmodified and Adverse Opinions
We have audited the financial statements of the City of Port Orchard, as of and for the year ended
December 31, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the financial
section of our report.
Unmodified Opinion on theRegulatory Basis of Accounting ( A_.. S Manual)
As described in Note 1, the City has prepared these financial statements to meet the financial
reporting requirements of state law and accounting practices prescribed by the State Auditor's
Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting System (BARS) Manual. Those accounting practices differ
from accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The
differences in these accounting practices are also described in Note 1.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all
material respects, the cash and investments of the City of Port Orchard, and its changes in cash
and investments, for the year ended December 31, 2024, on the basis of accounting described in
Note 1.
Adverse Opinion on U.S. GAAP
The financial statements referred to above were not intended to, and in our opinion, they do not,
present fairly, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America, the financial position of the City of Port Orchard, as of December 31, 2024, or the
changes in financial position or cash flows thereof for the year then ended, because of the
significance of the matter discussed below.
Office of the Washington State Auditor sao.wa.gov Page 7
asis for Unmodified and Adverse pinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America (GAAS) and Government Auditing Standards. 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 City, 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 unmodified and adverse opinions.
Matter Giving ise to Adverse Opinion on U.S. GAAP
Auditing standards issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA)
require auditors to formally acknowledge when governments do not prepare their financial
statements, intended for general use, in accordance with GAAP. As described in Note 1 of the
financial statements, the financial statements are prepared by the City in accordance with state law
using accounting practices prescribed by the BARS Manual, which is a basis of accounting other
than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effects on the
financial statements of the variances between the regulatory basis of accounting and accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America, although not reasonably
determinable, are presumed to be material and pervasive.
a of J phasis
As discussed in Note 15 to the financial statements, in 2024, the City adopted new accounting
guidance for presentation and disclosure of compensated absences as required by the BARS
Manual. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
esponsibilities of anagernent 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 state law and the BARS Manual described
in Note 1. This includes determining that the basis of accounting is acceptable for the presentation
of the financial statements in the circumstances. 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.
In preparing the financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are
conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the City's
ability to continue as a going concern for twelve months beyond the financial statement date,
including any currently known information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Office of the Washington State Auditor sao.wa.gov Page 8
Auditor's esponsibiities for the Audit o the "inancial State ents
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements 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.
Performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards includes the
following responsibilities:
• 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 City'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 City's ability to continue as a going
concern for a reasonable period of time; and
• 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 an opinion on the financial statements that
collectively comprise the City's financial statements. The Schedule of Liabilities is presented for
purposes of additional analysis, as required by the prescribed BARS manual. This schedule is 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
Office of the Washington State Auditor sao.wa.gov Page 9
prepare the financial statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including
comparing and 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 as a whole.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated April 16,
2026 on our consideration of the City's internal control over financial reporting and on the 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 effectiveness of the City's internal control over financial reporting or on
compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government

Washington State law, Chapter 43.09 RCW. This manual prescribes a financial reporting
framework that differs from generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the following
manner:

that are different from the ending net position classifications in. GAAP.

Note 10 — Risk Management
The City of Port Orchard is a member of the Association of Washington Cities Risk Management
Service Agency (AWC RMSA). Chapter 48.62 RCW authorizes the governing body of any one or
more governmental entities to form together into or join a pool or organization for the joint
purchasing of insurance, and/or joint self -insuring, and/or joint hiring or contracting for risk
management services to the same extent that they may individually purchase insurance, self -insure,
or hire or contract for risk management services. An agreement to form a pooling arrangement was
made pursuant to the provisions of Chapter 39.34 RCW, the Interlocal Cooperation Act. The AWC
RMSA was formed on January 1, 1989, when 32 municipalities in the State of Washington joined
by signing an Interlocal Governmental Agreement to pool their self -insured losses and jointly

Notes to Financial Statements
For the Year Ended December 31, 2024
purchase insurance and administrative services. As of December 31, 2024, 110 entities participate
in the AWC RMSA pool.
The AWC RMSA allows members to establish a program of joint insurance and provides risk
management services to all members. All coverages, with the exception of pollution liability, are
on an occurrence basis. The AWC RMSA provides all risk property, comprehensive crime, general
liability, automobile liability, police liability, public officials' liability, employee fidelity and
faithful performance, pollution liability, cyber liability, and equipment breakdown insurance
coverage. Equipment breakdown is included with the property insurance carrier. Pollution and
cyber liability coverages are stand-alone policies which the AWC RMSA procures for its
members. The AWC RMSA allows members with airports to group purchase airport liability
coverage, and members with drones to group purchase property and liability coverage.
Members pay an annual assessment to the AWC RMSA. The AWC RMSA is responsible for
payment of all covered causes of loss against the jurisdiction above the stated retention. All
members in the AWC RMSA have $15 million in both per occurrence and aggregate liability
limits. AWC RMSA is self -insured for its Self -Insured Retention (SIR) of $500,000, per
occurrence. $9.5 million in excess liability coverage limits is provided through an excess liability
policy purchased from National League of Cities Mutual. Insurance Company (NLC MIC). The $5
million in excess liability coverage limits above the first layer of excess coverage is purchased
from StarStone Specialty Insurance Company. Since AWC RMSA is a cooperative program, there
is joint liability among the participating members. The property reinsurance coverage is purchased
through NLC MIC and excess property coverage is purchased through a shared and layered
program led by AIG Specialty Insurance Company and CHUBB. In 2024, AWC RMSA carried a
retention of $300,000, NLC MIC reinsures up to $3 million, the shared and layered program led
by AIG Specialty Insurance Company provides excess insurance up to $50 million, and CHUBB
provides the remaining limits up to a total of $250 million. All commercial policies have been
purchased through the pool's Broker of Record, Aon.
Members contract to remain in the AWC RMSA pool for a minimum of one year and must give a
one-year notice before terminating participation. Even after termination, a member is still
responsible for contributions to the Pool for any unresolved, unreported, and in -process claims for
the period they were signatory to the Interlocal Governmental Agreement.
The AWC RMSA establishes a loss fund for both reported and unreported insured events, which
includes estimates of both future payments of losses and related claim adjustment expenses.
In accordance with WAC 200.100.02023, the AWC RMSA is governed by a board of directors,
which is comprised of elected officials of participating members.

Note 11. Joint Ventures
In 1983, the City of Port Orchard and West Sound Utility District (previously the Karcher Creek
Sewer District) amended an intergovernmental agreement relating to the construction and
management of the secondary wastewater treatment facility. In April of 2014 the City and District
signed an interlocal agreement for the management and operation of the joint wastewater treatment
facility for an additional term of 25 years. This joint venture establishes a Sewer Advisory
Committee (SAC) consisting of three representatives from each entity who prepare and monitor
the Facility's budget. The District and the City share 50% ownership in the facility's total assets.
The Utility District is responsible for the daily operation of the facility. The participants pay their
share of the expenses based on their portion of flow into the facility. The City and the District pay
the joint venture an amount determined during the budget process to cover maintenance, operation,
capital improvements and debt monthly. The 2024 cost sharing was 48.83% City and 51.17%
District and in 2024 the City paid $1,895,976.
The City was the lead agency on the wastewater treatment plant expansion project, and is the
signatory on two Public Works Trust Fund Loans for the Facility's expansion. In 2004, the City
guaranteed two Public Works Trust Funds loans of the South Kitsap Water Reclamation Facility,
a legally separate entity. In the event that the South Kitsap Water Reclamation Facility is unable
to make a payment, City of Port Orchard will be required to meet the obligation. Revenues of the
facility were used to make debt service payments on the loans. Annually, the facility makes a
payment to the City to cover the debt service on these loans. The SAC recommended and the City
Council and the District Commissioners approved using a portion of Wastewater Treatment
Facility Fees collected by each jurisdiction to help make the annual debt payments. This cost
sharing formula is 50% and in 2024 each entity paid $200,000. The debt was paid in full in 2024
and the total amount of outstanding debt subject of this guarantee at year end was $0.

CITY OF PORT ORCHARD
Notes to Financial Statements
For the Year Ended December 31, 2024
Note 13. Contingencies & Liabilities
Blake Decision. In February 2021, the Washington State Supreme Court issued an opinion in State
of Washington v. Blake, declaring that RCW 69.50.4013, Washington's simple possession of a
controlled substance statute violates the due process clause of the state and federal constitution.
Individuals convicted under that statute beginning in 1971 may be eligible to have their convictions
vacated and/or be resentenced. All penalties, fines and restitution (Legal Financial Obligations
"LFO") imposed in connection with simple possess convictions must be refunded.
At this time the City does not have the information necessary to make an estimate of any potential
liability. It is the City's position that this liability is the responsibility of the State. The State has
thus far provided funding sufficient for the City to process vacations and refund LFOs.
Note 14. Subsequent Event
As of May 13, 2025, loan agreement C051-25 with Washington State Public Works Board was
approved by council. The loan will be used for the pre -construction design costs of the Old Clifton
Road Water System Intertie Project. It is a $1,000,000 loan with a five-year term and a 0.86%
interest rate.
Note 15. Change in Accounting Principle
During fiscal year 2024, the City implemented compensated absences as required by the BARS
Manual. The effect of that accounting standard is that the City has also included sick leave
expected to be used during employment life and personal leave in the estimated calculations. This
has increased the liability that is shown on the schedule of long-term liabilities.

The State Auditor's Office is established in the Washington State Constitution and is part of the
executive branch of state government. The State Auditor is elected by the people of Washington
and serves four-year terms.
We work with state agencies, local governments and the public to achieve our vision of increasing
trust in government by helping governments work better and deliver higher value.
In fulfilling our mission to provide citizens with independent and transparent examinations of how
state and local governments use public funds, we hold ourselves to those same standards by
continually improving our audit quality and operational efficiency, and by developing highly
engaged and committed employees.
As an agency, the State Auditor's Office has the independence necessary to objectively perform
audits, attestation engagements and investigations. Our work is designed to comply with
professional standards as well as to satisfy the requirements of federal, state and local laws. The
Office also has an extensive quality control program and undergoes regular external peer review
to ensure our work meets the highest possible standards of accuracy, objectivity and clarity.
Our audits look at financial information and compliance with federal, state and local laws for all
local governments, including schools, and all state agencies, including institutions of higher
education. In addition, we conduct performance audits and cybersecurity audits of state agencies
and local governments, as well as state whistleblower, fraud and citizen hotline investigations.
The results of our work are available to everyone through the more than 2,000 reports we publish
each year on our website, www.sao.wa.gov. Additionally, we share regular news and other
information via an email subscription service and social media channels.
We take our role as partners in accountability seriously. The Office provides training and technical
assistance to governments both directly and through partnerships with other governmental support
organizations.
