In planning and performing our audit of the statements of the City for the general purpose financial i year ended September 30, 1990, we considered its internal control structure In order to determine our auditing procedures i for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the general purpose financial II statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control structure, The management of the City is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In fulfilling this rea xpectee.. , estimates and j judgments by management are required to assess the expectec. benefits and I related coats of internal control structure policies and procedures. The objectives of an internal control structure are to provide management with j reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against i loss from unauthorized use or dispoaition, and that transactions are executed in ac.%.ordance with management's authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of general purpose financial statements In accordance with j generally accepted accounting II any internal control structure, errors or Irregularities maynneverthelesss in occur and not be detected.

In fulfilling that responsibility, estimates and judgments by \ management are required to assess the expected benefits and related coats of control procedures. The objectives of iuternal control systems used in administering federal financial assistance programs are to provide management j with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that, with respect to federal financial assistance programs, resource use is consistent with laws, j regulations and policies; resources are safeguarded against waste, loss and misuse; and reliable data are obtained, maintained and fairly disclosed in reports. I . Because of inherent limitations in any system of internal accounting and administrative controls used in administering federal financial assistance programs, errors or irregularities may nevertheless occur and not be detected. Also, projection of any evaluation of the systems to future periods Is subject to the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of i j € changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the procedures may f i deteriorate.
