SECTION II-FINANCIAL STATEMENT FINDINGS
Our audit disclosed significant deficiencies, but did not disclose material weaknesses or instances of
noncompliance material to the basic financial statements. We have also issued a separate Memorandum on
Internal Control dated October 12, 2016, which is an integral part of our audits and should be read in
conjunction with this report.
SECTION ill-FEDERAL AW ARD FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
Our audit disclosed the following fmdings or questioned costs required to be reported in accordance with
Uniform Guidance.
Finding reference number: SA2016-001 Accurate Preparation of the Schedule of Expenditures of
Federal Awards
CFDA number -20.205, 20.600
CFDA Title -Highway Planning and Construction, State and Community Highway Safety
Name of Federal Agency-Department of Transportation
Name of pass-through Entity-California Department of Transportation
• Criteria -In accordance with the requirements of OMB Uniform Administrative Requirements
Subpart D Section 200.302(b)(l), the City should report all Federal expenditures in the Schedule of
Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) each fiscal year with the correct Catalog of Federal
Domestic Assistance (CFDA) title and number.
• Condition -The original SEF A prepared by the City included one grant project incorrectly
identified as funded by the State and Community Highway Safety Grant (CFDA 20.600) instead of
the Highway Planning and Construction Grant (CFDA 20.205).
• Effect -The City is not in compliance with the requirements as listed in the OMB Uniform
Administrative Requirements for Federal grant program expenditures.
• Cause-The City's staff in charge of the grant program did not provide the correct CFDA number
in the preparation of the SEF A.
• Recommendation -The City should develop policies and procedures for City departments to
ensure that the correct CFDA titles and numbers are included on the SEF A. For example, upon
receiving new grant awards, the City should contact the grantor to obtain the CFDA title and
number related to the award, if they are not clearly stated on the grant agreement. In addition, if the
SEF A is prepared by an outside consultant, the City should distribute the SEF A to grant program
managers to verify the accuracy of the information.
• View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Please see Corrective Action
Plan separately prepared by the City.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S 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
To the Honorable Members of the City Council
City of San Rafael, California
We have audited, in accordance with the 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 basic financial statements of the City of San
Rafael as of and for the year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, and
have issued our report thereon dated October 12, 2016.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City'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 City's internal control. Accordingly, we do not
express an opinion on the effectiveness of City's internal control.
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 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 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. However, material
weaknesses may exist that have not been identified. We identified certain deficiencies in internal
control, we consider to be significant deficiencies as listed on the Schedule of Significant Deficiencies
included as part of our separately issued Memorandum on Internal Control dated October 12, 2016 which
is an integral part of our audits and should be read in conjunction with this report.

Compliance and Other 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
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.
City's Response to Findings
City's response to the findings identified in our audit are described in our separately issued
Memorandum on Internal Control dated October 12, 2016 which is an integral part of our audits and
should be read in conjunction with this report. City's response was not subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance
and the result 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.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR EACH MAJOR FEDERAL
PROGRAM; REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE; AND REPORT ON
THE SCHEDULE OF EXPENDITURES OF FEDERAL AWARDS REQUIRED BY THE
UNIFORM GUIDANCE
To the Honorable Members of the City Council
City of San Rafael, California
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the City of San Rafael’s compliance with the types of compliance requirements
described in the OMB Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect on each of the
City's major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2016. The City's major federal programs are
identified in the summary of auditor's results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and
questioned costs.
Management’s Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions
of its federal awards applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the City’s major federal programs
based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements referred to above. We conducted our audit of
compliance in accordance with 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 the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal
Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements
for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Those standards and the Uniform Guidance require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of
compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on a major federal
program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the City’s compliance
with those requirements and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance for each major
federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal determination of the City’s compliance.
Opinion on Each Major Federal Program
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the types of compliance requirements
referred to above that could have a direct and material effect on each of its major federal programs for the
year ended June 30, 2016.
11
Other Matters
The results of our auditing procedures disclosed instances of noncompliance, which are required to be
reported in accordance with the Uniform Guidance and which are described in the accompanying
schedule of findings and questioned costs as item SA 2016-001. Our opinion on each major federal
program is not modified with respect to these matters.
City's Response to Findings
The City's response to the noncompliance findings identified in our audit are described in the
accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The City's response was not subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on the
response.
Report on Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over
compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our
audit of compliance, we considered the City's internal control over compliance with the types of
requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the
auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
compliance for each major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in
accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the City's internal control over compliance.
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over
compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a
federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal
program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in
internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control
over compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a
material weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those
charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over
compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies and therefore, material
weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified. We did not identify any
deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However,
we identified certain deficiencies in internal control over compliance, as described in the accompanying
schedule of findings and questioned costs as item SA 2016-001, that we consider to be significant
deficiencies.
The City's response to the internal control over compliance findings identified in our audit are described
in the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs. The City's response was not subjected to
the auditing procedures applied in the audit of compliance and, accordingly, we express no opinion on
the response.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our
testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the
Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.

Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each
major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City as of and for the year ended June
30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic
financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated February 22, 2017 which contained unmodified
opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion
on the financial statements as a whole. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is
presented for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and 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 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 schedule of
expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements as a whole .
