To the Honorable Members of the Carmel City Council, and Citizens of the City of Carmel, Indiana:
We are pleased to submit the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (“Report”) for the City of Carmel (“City”) year ended December 31, 2021. Responsibility for both the accuracy of the presented data and the completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all
disclosures, rests with City management. To the best of our knowledge, the enclosed data is accurate in all material respects and is presented in a manner designed to fairly set forth the financial position and the results of operations of the various funds of the City of Carmel. All disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain an understanding of the City’s financial
activity have been included.
This report presents management’s representations concerning the finances of the City. Consequently, management assumes full responsibility for the completeness and reliability of all the information presented in this report. To provide a reasonable basis for making these
representations, management has established a comprehensive internal control framework
designed to protect the City’s assets from loss, theft, or misuse and to compile sufficient reliable information for the preparation of the City’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Because the costs of internal controls should not outweigh the benefits, the City’s comprehensive framework of internal control
has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial
statements will be free from material misstatement.
Indiana law requires an annual audit of the financial records and transactions of all City functions. The City’s audit for 2021 was performed by the independent certified public
accounting firm of FORVIS. Their audit was conducted in accordance with generally
accepted governmental auditing standards. The independent certified public accounting firm concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified (clean) opinion that the City of Carmel’s financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent
auditor’s report is presented as the first component of the financial section, on page 23 of
this report.
8
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to
accompany the basic financial statement in the form of management’s discussion and analysis (MD&A). The MD&A complements this letter of transmittal and should be read in conjunction with it. The City’s MD&A can be found immediately following the independent auditors’ report in the financial section of the report.
CITY PROFILE
The City of Carmel was incorporated in 1874 and is located in Hamilton County, directly north of Indianapolis. The City occupies nearly 49 square miles, with more than 524 miles of
public roadways. The City has experienced tremendous growth within the past few decades
and serves mainly as a residential and commercial area for both Carmel and Indianapolis professionals.
Carmel has an estimated population of 101,759 according to the U.S. Census Bureau's 2021
Census. Personal income statistics are above national and State of Indiana averages. The
median household income level is $115,109, and the median value of a home is $352,400. Hamilton County ranks first in the State of Indiana for median household income and second in the State for per capita personal income. The unemployment rate in Hamilton County has been significantly lower than that of the State of Indiana throughout the past 10 years.
The City is recognized for its sound corporate environment, high-quality residential neighborhoods, outstanding schools, cultural amenities, well-developed infrastructure, and strong economy. The City was ranked as the No. 2 best place to live in the U.S. by Money in 2021-2022, and is consistently ranked among the best places to raise a family and among the
safest cities by a variety of rating websites and agencies. The proximity of Carmel to Indianapolis provides increased employment and higher education opportunities for residents.
City Structure In 2021, the City operated under elected officials including the Mayor, City Clerk, Judge and
a nine-member City Council pursuant to Indiana law. The Mayor serves as the chief executive of the City and serves a four-year term. The City Controller is appointed by the Mayor and is responsible for the financial records of the City. The legislative and fiscal body for the City is the City Council. The nine-member Council is comprised of three at-large and six district representatives who are elected to serve four-year terms. The Council meets
formally twice a month to conduct City business. Its duties include the enactment of all ordinances and resolutions and approval of the annual budget.
The administrative body for the City is the Board of Public Works and Safety. This three-member board consists of the Mayor, who serves as the presiding officer, and
two mayoral appointees. This board is responsible for bidding infrastructure projects as well as other duties prescribed by Indiana state law.
The City provides services in the following areas: public safety (police, fire, EMS, and emergency communications), community services (planning, code enforcement, and economic
development), parks and recreation, transportation (streets and sidewalks), engineering, storm water drainage, court, and general administrative services. In addition, the City provides water and wastewater utility services.
9
The City of Carmel includes several departments and services, including Community
Services, Community Relations and Economic Development, Redevelopment, Engineering, Human Resources, Street Department, Law, Administration, Information Systems, Police, Fire, Brookshire Golf Club and the Carmel Water and Sewer Utilities.
The City employs a total of 622 full-time employees, with union representation as follows:
Carmel Professional Firefighters / IAFF #4444 Firefighters 140
Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #185
Police 171
The unions negotiate contracts with the City, but they are not collective bargaining units.
Planning and Zoning
The Carmel Plan Commission promotes orderly growth throughout the City. The nine-member Plan Commission is appointed by the Mayor (5), City Council (1), Park Board (1), City Engineer (1), and Board of Public Works (1). The Board of Zoning Appeals has five members appointed by the Mayor, City Council, and Plan Commission.
Component Units Certain financing and economic development functions are provided by a legally separate redevelopment authority, five 501(c)(4) corporations, and a statutory local public improvement bond bank for which the City is financially accountable. These components, although legally separate, function for fiscal purposes as departments of the City, and
therefore have been included as integral parts of the City’s financial statements.
Additional information on these entities can be found in Note I.B. of the notes to the financial statements.
CITY ECONOMIC CONDITION
The City of Carmel has experienced extensive residential and commercial development in recent years and has been one of the fastest growing areas in the Indianapolis Metropolitan
Area. More than 130 companies have international, national or regional headquarters located in the City. Hamilton County has the second highest per capita income and highest median household income in the State of Indiana.
The newest or expanded businesses in the City include Republic Airways which purchased
land along the U.S. 31 corridor to build a new corporate headquarters and an airline pilot advanced training center. The $200 million aviation campus will bring in 1,900 new jobs to Carmel. The Signature at Carmel redevelopment project broke ground and will bring a large mixed-use presence to West Main Street, including 16,000 square feet of ground floor retail space. This $78 million investment will include apartments, owner-occupied condos,
office/retail space and a public parking garage. In the heart of the Arts & Design District, the new 1st on Main project also broke ground on another mixed-use project that will bring more retail, residential and free public parking to Main Street.
10
Several established major employers in the City include GEICO with 1,500 employees,
Liberty Mutual Insurance with 1,450 employees, RCI (formerly Resort Condominium International) with 1,125 employees, KAR Global with approximately 1,000 employees, The Capital Group with approximately 975 employees, Next Gear Capital with 694 employees, Allied Solutions with more than 500 employees, Delta Faucet with 400 employees, and Duke Realty with 252 employees.
Along US 31, known as the Meridian Corporate Corridor, numerous modern multi-story office complexes have been built in recent years. The corporate headquarters and offices of major corporations such as Delta Faucet, American Specialty Health, Blue Horseshoe Solutions (now part of Accenture), CNO Financial Group, Monster.com, Encore Sotheby’s
International Realty, and Liberty Mutual Insurance are among the many office complexes which line the Meridian Corridor for five miles from 96th Street to 146th Street.
In addition to these corporate headquarters, the Corridor's strength as a provider of medical services is attested to by numerous health care facilities, including St. Vincent Carmel
Hospital and its Women’s Center, St. Vincent Heart Center, I.U. Health North Hospital and its Cancer Center, and Franciscan Health Carmel, which is in the process of building a new campus with a full-service hospital. Goodman Campbell Brain and Spine moved into a new $17.6-million facility in May 2019 along the Meridian Corridor. In May 2019, Medistar Corporation and Post Acute Medical LLC announced the development of a 60,000-square-
foot rehabilitation hospital along the Meridian Corridor. A $47-million national headquarters for Zotec Partners opened in 2021 and is expected to create 300 additional jobs by 2022. Franciscan Health Carmel expanded with a new $120-million development, Franciscan Health Orthopedic Hospital. The 235,000-square-foot facility opened in April 2022 and was developed by Meridian Ortho Development, LLC.
The Bridges is a 65-acre mixed-use, master planned development located on the west side of US 31 in the Meridian Corridor. More than 250,000 square feet of restaurant and retail space, including a Market District store, serves 59,000 nearby workers, and attracts
customers from inside and outside Carmel.
To the east of Meridian Corridor, two major mixed-use developments have been constructed and opened, “The Olivia on Main,” a $30-million development that includes 200 luxury apartments above ground floor retail developed by Keystone Corporation; and
“Grand and Main,” an $80-million development that includes townhomes, apartments, a
retirement community, retail space and a hotel.
Old Town Companies is developing a project along Smoky Row Road in the City’s central
corridor, just west of the Monon Greenway. The project, expected to be completed by 2024,
is a $135-million mixed-use development which will consist of retail space, office space, single-family homes, apartments, townhomes, and condominiums.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC
The City received $3,761,460 from the U.S. Treasury on June 14, 2021, from the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (“ARP”). The ARP established the Coronavirus Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (“Fund”) and appropriated money for allocations to metropolitan cities, non-entitlement units and counties. A second payment of $3,761,460 will be received in
2022, not earlier than twelve months after the first payment. All appropriated money remains available through December 31, 2024.
The City received $414,648 from FEMA in 2021 for Covid-19 Public Assistance conducted by the Fire Department. To date in 2022, the City has received $470,400 from FEMA for
Covid-19 testing and $52,868 for Covid-19 Public Assistance conducted by the Fire Department.
QUALITY OF LIFE
During the past 10 years, park land in Carmel has increased from 20 to more than 1,000 acres through purchases and gifts. Central Park, which opened in 2007, provides many
recreational opportunities for residents of the City. The park includes a 146,000-square-foot community recreation center, which houses a three-court gymnasium, an indoor walking/jogging track, a workout center, meeting rooms, a banquet facility, park offices, and an outdoor and indoor aquatic center.
Another unique Carmel recreational feature is the Monon Greenway, a five-mile paved trail built on a former rail corridor, which extends through the center of Carmel and connects to the 10.5-mile Monon Trail system in Marion County to the south, extending all the way to downtown Indianapolis, and to Westfield to the north, connecting to the Grand Park sports complex. The trail system is very popular with joggers, walkers, bicyclists, and
rollerbladers. Trail expansions have brought the City’s total miles of paths and trails to more than 195.
Cultural activities are provided by the $175-million Center for the Performing Arts in City Center, which includes the Palladium, a state-of-the-art, 1,600-seat concert hall, the Tarkington, a 500-seat proscenium arch theater, and the 200-seat Studio Theater. The Center is home to many local arts organizations including Actors Theatre of Indiana, the Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre, Indiana Wind Symphony, Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre and the
Carmel Symphony Orchestra.
Carter Green is a public place providing an area for the community and visitors to gather for events and festivals between the Palladium and Tarkington theater building. The Carmel Farmers Market attracted 110,000 visitors to its Saturday morning markets in 2021. The
Carmel Christkindlmarkt and the Ice at Carter Green is a winter wonderland with shops, dining options, skating and entertainment in the fresh crisp air, attracting more than 400,000 visitors in 2021. The Christkindlmarkt was voted the No. 1 Best Holiday Market in North America by USA Today readers in 2021.
12
The Carmel Arts and Design District, located in the heart of Old Town Carmel, is comprised
of galleries, eateries, boutiques, gift and interior design shops, antique stores, and other retail establishments geared toward the arts. It is also home to the Indiana Design Center, a premier destination for design in the Midwest. The expanded Monon Greenway and Midtown Plaza continued to provide outdoor public spaces to give residents and visitors an opportunity to venture out for some much-needed experiences with nature. Among the amenities, this linear
park features unique outdoor, all-weather games that allow visitors to play ping pong and pool; an outdoor stage for live music; outdoor seating; green space; outdoor fireplace and a 16-foot-wide digital video screen on which the City shows family-friendly movies and livesporting events.
The Carmel Clay Public Library is one of the busiest public libraries in the State of Indiana, serving resident of the City. In 2021, the library began construction of new library and campus on Main Street, a $40-million expansion that is expected to include additional teen space, additional programming space, functional outdoor space, and a parking garage. The library provides students, teachers, and residents of the City access to books, other resource
materials, and programs located in the library as well as a new mobile library service. The library is consistently ranked in the top ten libraries in the country by Hennen's American Public Library Ratings. In addition to the new facility, the library operates a Community Tech Center further west on Main Street for computer use and training, software, recording room and 3-D printing services for library patrons.
EDUCATION
Carmel Clay Schools serves the residents of the City and surrounding Clay Township. Currently, the school system has one high school, three middle schools, and eleven elementary schools. The Indiana Department of Education reports 2021 enrollment for the School Corporation at 16,174 students, and the Superintendent’s Office reports 1,082 full-
time educators.
Special studies in the areas of Gifted & Talented, English as a New Language, Special Education, and Title I services are provided by the school corporation. In addition, the J. Everett Light Career Center provides vocational programs in auto mechanics, computers, construction trades, dental occupations, electronics, machine trades, and radio/television production, among others.
REDEVELOPMENT
In 1998, the City of Carmel and its Redevelopment Commission began an aggressive effort to redevelop and revitalize the center of the City, including the historic downtown, into a cultural and civic center, undergoing a tremendous amount of new construction, including offices, restaurants, retail, upscale apartments, condominiums, townhomes, and public
spaces, free public parking garages and monuments designed to create a vibrant urban atmosphere.
The oldest part of this area is known today as the Carmel Arts & Design District, home to more than 100 arts- and design-related businesses, including art galleries, design studios, and the Indiana Design Center, where professional designers maintain offices and showrooms. Located at the intersection of the Monon Greenway and Main Street is a mixed-use
13
development called Monon & Main. The $20-million structure features Anthony’s Chophouse,
a three-story, 12,000-square-foot restaurant and 3UP, a rooftop bar, a four-story office building, retail space along Main Street, a parking garage and seven townhomes. In 2021, Lauth began construction on 1st on Main, a $40 million project located at the northeast corner of Main Street and Range Line Road. This project will include 35 luxury apartment units, 8 luxury condominiums, a four-story office building, retail space, a free public parking garage
and a community gathering plaza featuring the City’s Rotary Clock. The City Center redevelopment project is home to the Center for the Performing Arts and several mixed-use buildings, including the Hotel Carmichael, Carmel City Center, the James Building, the Nash Building, the Mezz on Monon and approximately twelve more buildings scheduled to be constructed in the next few years.
The City also continued major redevelopment in an area located along the Monon Greenway between City Center and the Arts District – an area known as Midtown. The first several phases of the Midtown redevelopment project, which includes mixed-use buildings, has attracted several corporate headquarters. This area is poised for rapid growth in 2022 for both
residential and business sectors. Additional public spaces are planned as well. Another major mixed-use development, known as the Proscenium, is nearly completed in a redevelopment area south of the City government center. The $60-million project includes apartments, for-sale condos, a 100,000 square foot office building, retail space and a one-level underground free parking garage. The Proscenium will welcome the arrival of 101 Beer
Kitchen and Indiana’s first Wahlburgers, a nationally recognized restaurant created by the Wahlburg family, which includes actors that are known on the national and international stage.
The City’s $30-million expansion of the Monon Greenway from a 12-foot path to the 140-foot Monon Boulevard, with expanded paths for pedestrians and bicyclists, along with new
one-way streets on either side, includes the popular Midtown Plaza, a public park-like setting with green space, community games (such as outdoor ping pong and pool), a 16-foot video screen where movies and sporting events are broadcast and a stage for live music. In addition, Monon Boulevard includes additional artwork, community benches, a spray plaza, and other
features to enhance the landscape for residents and visitors.
The City has invested millions of dollars in infrastructure improvements in the past decade from major thoroughfares and road widening to the construction of more than 141 roundabouts across the City. The transition away from traffic signals and 4-way stops has
resulted in Carmel having one of the lowest automobile accident fatality rates among cities its
size in the U.S. Carmel’s current fatality rate is 2.25 (based on 100,000 population).
The City also took ownership of the former Ind. 431 from the State of Indiana and transformed it into a nationally recognized and award-winning, free-flowing Keystone
Parkway. With $90 million from the State for reconstruction, Keystone Parkway was
transformed from a congested, dangerous five-mile stretch of roadway into a free-flowing parkway with no traffic signals and with intersections that are controlled by grade-separation and roundabouts. Upon seeing that project work well, the State of Indiana followed a similar model to upgrade U.S. 31 through Carmel and Westfield, removing traffic signals and using
roundabouts to control grade-separated interchanges along 13 miles between I-465 and
Indiana State Road 38 north of the City. Additionally, the creation of new interchanges has helped spur additional economic development on Main Street.
14
The City also transformed a key north-south corridor known as Range Line Road, which cuts through the middle of Carmel’s central corridor, replacing the former 4-lane road with traffic signals on a “road diet.” This process eliminated two lanes of traffic, added a bike lane, added a landscaped median, replaced traffic signals with roundabouts and added pedestrian and bike friendly raised crosswalks to promote walkability and safety in an area that has been
transformed by the City’s redevelopment efforts. In 2021, this transformation continued to the north of this section to the edge of the Arts & Design District.
PENSION PLANS
The City of Carmel has four pension plans for its employees. All full-time employees, with the exception of public safety officers, are members of the Public Employees’ Retirement
Fund of Indiana (“PERF”). PERF is classified as a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plan and acts as a common investment and administrative agent for governmental units in Indiana.
Police and fire department officers hired subsequent to April 30, 1977, are members of the
1977 Police Officers and Firefighters’ Pension Fund administered by PERF. Both plans are fully funded on an actuarially determined accrual basis. Police officers hired prior to May 1, 1977, are members of the Police Pension Fund established in 1925 by the State of Indiana. Firefighters hired prior to May 1, 1977, are members of the Fire Pension Fund established in 1937 by the State of Indiana. Additional information on funding policies and pension costs is
in Note II.F. of the notes to the financial statements.
OTHER POST-EMPLOYMENT BENEFITS (OPEB)
The City currently provides other post-employment benefits (“OPEB”) in the form of healthcare benefits for retirees hired prior to October 3, 2016, who have completed twenty or more years of full-time service to the City. Such benefits are self-funded by the City and
administered by a third party. The retiree healthcare plan is not a contractual obligation that extends beyond the current budget year. The City is under no obligation to continue to offer similar benefits for future new hires. Additional information regarding anticipated future payments can be found in Note II.G. of the notes to the financial statements.
FINANCIAL INFORMATION
City Budget & Budgetary Controls The City Council is required to adopt a final budget, subject to approval by the Indiana Department of Local Government Finance (“DLGF”), through the passage of an
ordinance no later than November 1, following a public hearing process conducted to
obtain taxpayer comments.
This annual budget serves as the foundation for the City’s financial planning and control. The budget is prepared by fund, department (e.g., police) and major category (e.g., personal services). City directors are authorized to transfer limited budgeted amounts within departments between line items within any major category; however, any revisions that alter
the total expenditures of any major category must be approved by the City Council.
15
Transfers between funds must also be approved by the City Council. At the end of the fiscal
year, encumbered appropriations are carried forward and become part of the following year’s budget.
Accounting System
The City’s accounting records for general government operations are reported by the
Controller’s Office on a cash basis, with the revenues being recorded when received. Expenditures are recorded when claims are approved and paid. Accounting records for the City’s proprietary activities are maintained on a full accrual basis, with revenues recorded when earned and expenses when incurred.
In maintaining the City’s accounting system, consideration is given to the adequacy of internal controls. Internal controls are designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the safeguarding of assets and to ensure the reliability of financial records and maintaining accountability for assets. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of
control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived. The evaluation of costs and
benefits requires continuing estimates and judgments by City management. We believe that under the Controller’s Office direction the City’s system of internal accounting controls continues to appropriately safeguard assets and provide reasonable assurance that financial transactions are properly recorded.
Risk Management The City carries traditional insurance for automobile liability and physical damage, general liability, public officials’ liability, property and casualty, cyber liability, inland marine/boiler, and crime damage. The City insures Worker Compensation using a large per claim deductible
program with stop loss and excess insurance in place. The Water Treatment Facility is insured under “special form” property coverage.
CERTIFICATE OF ACHIEVEMENT
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States (GFOA) awarded the
City a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year that ended December 31, 2020. This Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management.
A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year. We believe our current report continues to conform to the Certificate of Achievement program requirements, and we are submitting it to the GFOA to determine its eligibility for another certificate.

Report on the Audit of the Financial StatementsRe
Opinions
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 of Carmel, Indiana (City), as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes to the financial statements, which
collectively comprise the City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, based on our audit and the report of other auditors, the accompanying financial statements
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the
governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund
information of the City of Carmel, Indiana, as of December 31, 2021, and the respective changes in
financial position, and, where applicable, cash flows thereof for the year then ended in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
We did not audit the financial statements of The City of Carmel Local Public Improvement Bond Bank, a
blended component unit, which represent 1%, 58%, and .2%, respectively, of the assets, liabilities and
net position of the total governmental activities of the City as of December 31, 2021. Those statements
were audited by other auditors whose report has been furnished to us, and our opinions, insofar as it
relates to the amounts included for the governmental activities, are based solely on the report of the other
auditors.
Basis for Opinions
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing
Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States. 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 opinions.
Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and 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.
24
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 12 months beyond the financial statement date, including any currently known
information that may raise substantial doubt shortly thereafter.
Auditor’s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole 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.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we:
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.
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.
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s
discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison, pension and other postemployment benefit information
as listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information is the responsibility of management and, although not a part of the basic financial statements,
is required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board who considers it to be an essential part of
financial reporting for placing the basic financial statements in an appropriate operational, economic, or
historical context. We have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information
in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the
information for consistency with management’s responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements,
and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express
an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us
with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
25
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively
comprise the City's basic financial statements. The combining and individual fund statements and
schedules are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic
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 basic financial
statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
basic financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such
information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial
statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion,
the combining and individual fund statements and schedules is fairly stated, in all material respects, in
relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information included in the annual comprehensive financial
report. The other information comprises the introductory section and statistical section but does not
include the basic financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinions on the basic
financial statements do not cover the other information, and we do not express an opinion or any form of
assurance thereon.
In connection with our audit of the basic financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other
information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the
basic financial statements, or the other information otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If,
based on the work performed, we conclude that an uncorrected material misstatement of the other
information exists, we are required to describe it in our report.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated June 30, 2022,
on our consideration of the City’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grant agreements, and other
matters. The purpose of that report is solely 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 Auditing Standards in considering the
City’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021
As management of the City of Carmel, we offer readers of the City's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the
financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021. We encourage readers to consider the information
presented here in conjunction with additional information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, which can be found on
page 8 of this report, and the transactions, events, and conditions reflected in the City’s financial statements, beginning on page 37 of
this report.
• The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows at the close of the fiscal year by
$473,667,675 (net position).
•The City's total net position increased $38,020,210 from the prior fiscal year. The main reason for this improvement was the
unusually favorable results from pension investments. Other reasons for this overall increase are discussed in the following sections for
governmental activities and business-type activities.
•At the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $241,853,379, an increase of
$117,738,684 in comparison with the prior year. Much of the increase represents bond proceeds. Approximately $22,154,293 of this
amount (9.2%) is available for spending at the government's discretion (unassigned fund balance).
•At the end of the current fiscal year, unrestricted fund balance (the total of the committed, assigned, and unassigned components of
fund balance) for the General Fund was $28,881,023, or approximately 30.4% of total General Fund expenditures.
• The City's total outstanding long-term liabilities increased by $83,365,801 during the current year.
Government-wide Financial Statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad
overview of the City's finances, in a manner similar to a private-sector business.
The statement of net position presents financial information on all of the City's assets, liabilities, and deferred inflows/outflows of
resources, with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator
of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating.
The discussion and analysis provided here are intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements. The City's
basic financial statements consist of three components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3)
the notes to financial statements. This report also includes supplementary information intended to furnish additional detail to support
the basic financial statements themselves.
The statement of activities presents information showing how the City's net position changed during the most recent fiscal year. All
changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of related
cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported for some items that will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g.,
uncollected taxes and earned but unused personal leave).
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and
intergovernmental revenues (governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of
their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The government-type activities include general government, public
safety, streets and other infrastructure, economic development, and culture and recreation. The business-type activities of the City
include water and sewer.
26
The government-wide financial statements begin on page 37 of this report.
The basic governmental fund financial statements begin on page 39 of this report.
The basic proprietary fund financial statements begin on page 44 of this report.
The fiduciary fund financial statements begin on page 50 of this report.
Notes to the Financial Statements. The notes provide additional information that is necessary to acquire a full understanding
Fund Financial Statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been
segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and
demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories:
governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental Funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities
in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial
statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at
the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in assessing a government's near-term financing requirements.
Fiduciary Funds. Fiduciary funds are used to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside of the government. Fiduciary
funds are not reported in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the
City's own programs. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for the proprietary funds.
The City maintains two different types of fiduciary funds. Pension trust funds are used to report resources held in trust for retirees and
beneficiaries covered by the 1925 Police Officers' Pension Plan and the 1937 Firefighters' Pension Plan. Custodial funds report
resources held by the City in a custodial capacity for individuals, private organizations, and other governments.
of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the financial statements begin on page 52 of
this report.
The government-wide financial statements include not only the City itself (known as the primary government), but also a legally
separate redevelopment authority, five 501(c)(4) corporations, and a statutory public improvement bond bank for which the City is
financially accountable. These components, although legally separate, function for fiscal purposes as departments of the City, and
therefore have been included as integral parts of the primary government.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the
information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide
financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing
decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in
fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate this comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains seventy-two individual governmental funds. Information is presented separately in the governmental fund balance
sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances for the General Fund,
Redevelopment Commission Fund, Redevelopment Authority Debt Service Fund, Bond Bank Project Fund, and 2021 Project Fund,
which are considered to be major funds. Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single aggregated presentation.
Individual fund data for each of these nonmajor governmental funds is provided in the form of combining statements in the combining
and individual fund statements and schedules section of this report.
Proprietary Funds. The City maintains one type of proprietary fund. Enterprise funds are used to report the same functions presented
as business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The enterprise fund financial statements provide separate
information for the water and sewer utilities, which are considered to be major funds of the City.

Other post-employment benefits – retiree healthcare obligation
Non-uniform public employee retirement plan obligation
'37 firefighters pension plan obligation
'25 police pension plan obligation
Notwithstanding the City’s ultimate liability for the ’25 and ’37 plans, the State of Indiana has established a practice of appropriating
funds to cover these benefits. The State of Indiana is not obligated to continue making these appropriations, but it has done so every
year since 2009. Consequently, the City has incurred no cost from its own resources to service these plans. Also, the retiree healthcare
plan is not a contractual obligation that extends beyond the current budget year. The liability is shown in the statements because it has
been the City’s consistent practice to provide this benefit. However, the City believes it is not legally obligated to do so. The plan was
closed to new entrants as of October 3, 2016.
8,187,979
23,524,710$
The City reported significant negative unrestricted net position of $46,699,892 in governmental activities. This deficit is due in part to
unfunded pension and retiree healthcare liabilities of $45.3 million, as follows:
8,976,936
By far, the largest portion of the City's net position reflects its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, buildings, machinery and
equipment, vehicles, and infrastructure), less any related outstanding debt that was used to acquire those assets. The City uses these
capital assets to provide a variety of services to its citizens. Accordingly, these assets are not available for future spending. Although
the City's investment in capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources used to repay this debt must
be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.
An additional portion of the City's net position represents resources that are subject to external restriction on how they may be used.
The remaining balance of spendable net position is a deficit of $79,620,516.
45,278,826$
Another contributing factor to the deficit is the City’s growth and aggressive acquisition of capital assets for infrastructure and other
amenities. This growth and improvement have been financed with debt, resulting in significant transaction costs and amortization of
deferred outflows. The City views these acquisitions as positive indicators. They reflect the City’s effort to attract and retain as
residents the most productive people in Central Indiana, and also to attract corporate headquarters and regional offices from all over the
world. The success of this effort has resulted in a strong tax base, yielding one of the lowest local tax rates in Indiana, despite the cost
of debt.

Governmental Activities. During the current fiscal year, net position for governmental activities increased $32,177,678 from the

pension trust investments.

Financial Analysis of Governmental Funds
Governmental Funds. The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and
At December 31, 2021, the City's governmental funds reported combined fund balances of $241,853,379, an increase of $117,738,684
in comparison with the prior year. Much of the increase is due to proceeds from bond issues. Approximately 9.2% of the combined
fund balances, $22,154,293, constitutes unassigned fund balance, which is available for spending at the government's discretion. The
remainder of the fund balance is either restricted, committed, or assigned, indicating that, legally, it is required to be maintained intact
or used for particular purposes ($207,974,077), it is committed for particular purposes ($4,998,279), or it is assigned for particular
purposes ($6,726,730).
balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned
fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for discretionary use, as they represent the
portion of fund balance that has not yet been limited to use for a particular purpose by either an external party, the City itself, or a
group of individuals that has been delegated authority to assign resources for use for particular purposes by the City's Council.
$118,369,621. The total increase in net position for business-type activities (water and sewer) was $5,842,532 or 4.9% from the
prior fiscal year, indicating a relatively stable and healthy net position.

Unrestricted net position of the Water Utility at the end of the year was a deficit of $27,824,161; for the Sewer Utility, it was a deficit
of $5,096,465. Water Utility net position, before capital contributions and transfers, decreased $1,830,648. Improvement is expected as
the utilities continue to expand and achieve both economies of scale and greater utilization of recently installed mains, treatment
facilities, and replacement of aging water meters.
Actual
Revenues
The fund balance of the City's General Fund increased by $1,307,227 during the year, indicating a budget variance within
approximately 1% of revenues and expenditures, which is considered reasonable.

The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, unassigned fund balance of the General
Fund was $22,154,293 while the total fund balance was $28,881,023. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be useful to

23.3% of total general fund expenditures while total fund balance represents 30.4% of that amount.

Accrued interest reported in the Statement of Activities does not require the use of current financial
resources and, therefore, is not reported as expenditures in governmental funds, net decrease in
accrual.
The notes to the financial statements are an integral part of this statement.
Amounts reported for governmental activities in the Statement of Activities are different because:
Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities, the cost of those
assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and recorded as depreciation expense. Following is the amount by
which capital outlay expenditures were less than depreciation expense in the current period:
The issuance of long-term debt (e.g., bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, while
the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds.
Neither transaction, however, has any effect on net position. Also, governmental funds report the effect of issuance costs, premiums, discounts and similar items when debt is first issued; whereas these amounts are deferred and
amortized in the Statement of Activities. The following items reflect these differences in the treatment of long-term debt
and related items:

City of Carmel, Indiana
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2021
The two government-wide financial statements, the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities, report information on all of the
non-fiduciary activities of the City. Governmental activities, which include those activities primarily supported by taxes or intergovernmental
revenue, are reported separately from business-type activities, which generally rely on fees and charges for support. While separate
government-wide and fund financial statements are presented, they are interrelated. The governmental activities column incorporates data
from governmental funds, while business-type activities incorporate data from the government's enterprise funds. Separate financial statements
are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the latter are excluded from the government-wide
financial statements.
The accounting policies of the City of Carmel, Indiana (City) applied to the accompanying financial statements for the year ended December
31, 2021, conform to the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) for local governmental units. The
Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard-setting body for establishing governmental accounting and
financial reporting principles. A summary of the City's significant accounting policies employed in the preparation of the accompanying
financial statements follows.
The City of Carmel (City) is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor as executive, an appointed controller as fiscal officer, and
a nine-member council as legislative and fiscal body. It is the primary general government reporting entity. The accompanying financial
statements present the government and its blended component units, entities for which the government is considered to be financially
accountable. Blended component units are, in substance, part of the primary government's operations, even though they are legally separate
entities. Thus, blended component units are appropriately presented within the funds of the primary government.
There are seven blended component units.
The Carmel Redevelopment Authority is organized under Indiana Code Chapter 36-7-14.5 as a body corporate and politic, separate from the
City, to facilitate long-term financing of certain City capital projects. City officials appoint its board, and the City is ultimately liable for all its
debt.
The City of Carmel Local Public Improvement Bond Bank (The Carmel Bond Bank) is an instrumentality of the City, organized under Indiana
Code Chapter 5-1.4-2 as a body corporate and politic, separate from the City. It serves as a facility by which certain local governmental
agencies may issue debt. Its board is appointed by City officials, it serves the City exclusively, and the City is liable for all of its debt. The
Carmel Bond Bank issues separate financial statements, which may be obtained at Carmel City Hall, Third Floor, One Civic Square, Carmel,
Indiana 46032.
The Carmel Redevelopment Authority, CMBC, CMCDC, CMFBC, DCCDC, and 4CDC do not issue separate financial statements.
52
D. Basis of Presentation – Fund Financial Statements
The government also reports certain other funds:
E. Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The government reports the following major governmental funds:
The fund financial statements provide information about the government's funds, including its fiduciary funds and blended component units.
Separate statements for each fund category–governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary–are presented. The emphasis of fund financial statements
is on major governmental and enterprise funds, each displayed in a separate column. All remaining governmental and enterprise funds are
aggregated and reported as nonmajor funds. Major individual governmental and enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund
financial statements.
The General Fund is the government's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the general government, except those
accounted for in the funds described below.
The Redevelopment Authority Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources that are restricted, committed, or
assigned for the payment of principal and interest on certain long-term obligations of governmental funds.
Trust funds account for the activities of certain pension plans administered by the City.
Custodial funds account for municipal court escrows.
The government reports the following major proprietary funds:
The accounting and financial reporting treatment is determined by the applicable measurement focus and basis of accounting. Measurement
focus indicates the type of resources being measured, such as current financial resources or economic resources. The basis of accounting
indicates the timing of transactions or events for recognition in the financial statements.
The Statement of Activities demonstrates the extent to which the direct expenses of a functional category are offset by program revenues.
Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific program. Program revenues include charges to customers or applicants
who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function. They also include operating and capital
grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function. Taxes and other items
properly excluded from program revenues are reported as general revenue.
The Water Utility and Sewer Utility Funds are enterprise funds and account for the activities of the City utilities, integral parts of the
government. The City operates the water distribution and sanitary sewer systems for residents and certain non-residents.
The Bond Bank Project Fund is used to account for the proceeds of bond issuances that have been aggregated through the City's local public
improvement bond bank, established in accordance with Indiana law. Generally, proceeds not needed for issuance costs and required reserves
are transferred to other funds to be used to acquire capital assets.
The Redevelopment Commission Fund is used to account for the collection and expenditure of tax increment financing revenue and certain
other economic development activities.
The government also reports nonmajor funds, which are of three types: special revenue funds account for and report the proceeds of specific
revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects; capital
projects funds account for revenues normally restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays, including the acquisition or
construction of capital facilities and other capital assets; and debt service funds account for and report financial resources that are restricted,
committed, or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest.
The 2021 Project Fund is used to account for the expenditure of proceeds of certain 2021 bond issuances, the purpose of which were to
finance the Police headquarters expansion and related parking garage projects.
During the course of operations, the government has activity between funds for various purposes. Any residual balances outstanding at year
end are reported as due from/to other funds and advances to/from other funds. While these balances are reported in fund financial statements,
certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Balances between the funds included in
governmental activities (i.e., the governmental funds) are eliminated, so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the governmental activities column. Similarly, balances between the funds included in business-type activities (i.e., the enterprise funds) are
eliminated, so that only the net amount is included as internal balances in the business-type activities column.
Further, certain activity occurs during the year involving transfers of resources between funds. In fund financial statements, these amounts are
reported at gross amounts as transfers in/out. While reported in fund financial statements, certain eliminations are made in the preparation of the government-wide financial statements. Transfers between the funds included in the governmental activities column are eliminated so that
only the net amount is included as transfers in the governmental activities column. Similarly, balances between the funds included in business-
type activities are eliminated so that only the net amount is included as transfers in the business-type activities column.

F. Reconciliation of Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements
G. Assets, Liabilities, Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources, and Net Position/Fund Balance
1.Cash and Cash Equivalents
2.Investments
3. Inventories and Prepaid Items
4. Capital Assets
Investments with a maturity of less than one year when purchased, non‐negotiable certificates of deposit, and other nonparticipating
investments are stated at cost or amortized cost. Investments with a maturity greater than one year when purchased and all investments of the
pension and OPEB trust funds are stated at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an investment in an orderly
transaction at year end.
A reconciliation of the difference between changes in fund balances, as reflected on the governmental funds Statement of Revenues,
Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances, and change in net position for governmental activities, as shown on the government-wide
Statement of Activities, is presented in an accompanying schedule to the governmental funds Statement of Revenues, Expenditures, and
Changes in Fund Balances. The revenue and expense elements that comprise the reconciliation differences stem from governmental funds
using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting, while the government-wide financial
statements use the economic resources measurements focus and the accrual basis of accounting.
Property taxes and income taxes are considered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenues of the current fiscal
period. Certain service charges are recognized when the service is performed. Entitlements are recognized as revenues when all eligibility
requirements are met, including any time requirements. Expenditure-driven grants are recognized when the qualifying expenditures have been
incurred and all other eligibility requirements have been met. In all instances, revenues are recognized in governmental funds only when the
amount is received during the period or within the availability period (within 60 days of year end). All other revenue is recognized only when cash is received.
The proprietary, pension trust, and custodial funds are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of
accounting.
The City's cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, demand deposits, and short‐term investments with original maturities of three
months or less from the date of acquisition. For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the City’s proprietary funds consider their demand deposits and all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Capital assets are recorded at cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at the
acquisition value at the date of donation.
Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both the government-
wide and fund financial statements. The cost of prepaid items is recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when
purchased.
All capital assets, whether owned by governmental activities or business-type activities, are recorded and depreciated in the government-wide
financial statements. No long-term capital assets or depreciation are shown in the governmental funds financial statements.
The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of
accounting. Revenues are recorded when earned, and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related
cash flows. Property taxes are recognized in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenues as soon as
all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
The governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual
basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues from non-exchange transactions
subject to eligibility requirements are considered available when the time and other eligibility requirements are met. Accordingly, revenues
shared by the State of Indiana are considered available in the year in which the State allows the revenues to be appropriated, encumbered, and
expended. All revenues are considered to be available only if they are collectible within the current period, or soon enough thereafter to pay
liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the government considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 60 days of the
end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, debt
service expenditures, as well as expenditures related to compensated absences, pensions, other post-employment benefits, and claims and
judgements, are recorded only when payment is due. General capital asset acquisitions are reported as expenditures in governmental funds.
Issuance of long-term debt and acquisitions under capital leases are reported as other financing sources.
Inventories are valued at cost using the first-in/first-out (FIFO) method and consist of expendable supplies. The cost of such inventories is
recorded as expenditures/expenses when consumed rather than when purchased.
54
The capitalization threshold below is determined by the asset class.
a) Land is capitalized regardless of the value or cost;
Buildings 20–100 years
Improvements Other than Buildings 10–20 years
Machinery, Equipment, and Vehicles 5–20 years
Infrastructure 20–50 years
5. Compensated Absences
6. Bond Premiums and Discounts
7. Deferred Outflows/Inflows of Resources
8. Net Position Flow Assumption
Depreciation is recorded on each class of depreciable property using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Estimated useful lives are as follows:
The government's policy permits employees to accumulate earned but unused personal time, which is eligible for payment upon separation
from government service. The liability for such leave is reported as incurred in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements.
A liability for those amounts is recorded in the governmental funds only if the liability has matured as a result of employee resignations or
retirements.
A full year of depreciation is taken in the year of acquisition for capital assets employed in governmental activities, and depreciation is
deferred to the year after acquisition for those employed in business-type activities.
b) Buildings, infrastructure, vehicles, machinery, and equipment must be capitalized when the useful life is at least 1 year, and the cost is
$5,000 or more for assets employed in governmental activities and $750 in business-type activities.
In addition to assets, the Statement of Net Position reports a separate section for deferred outflows of resources. This separate financial
statement element, deferred outflows of resources, represents a consumption of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be
recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The government only has three items reported on the government-wide
statement of net position that qualify for reporting in this category. One is the deferred charge on refunding. A deferred charge on refunding
results from the difference in the carrying value of refunded debt and its reacquisition price. This amount is deferred and amortized over the
shorter of the life of the refunded or refunding debt. The others are certain debits arising from changes in actuarial assumptions and timing
differences for pensions and other post-employment benefits.
Debt issuance costs, except for any portion related to insurance costs or other credit enhancements that tend similarly to affect interest rates in
future periods, are recognized as expenses of the current period. These credit enhancement costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over the
term of the related debt.
Sometimes the government will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted (e.g., restricted bond or grant proceeds) and
unrestricted resources. In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted–net position in the government-wide and proprietary fund
financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered to be applied. It is the
government's policy to consider restricted net position to have been depleted before unrestricted net position is applied.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the capital assets or materially extend capital assets' lives are not capitalized. Major improvements are capitalized and depreciated over the remaining useful lives of the related capital assets.
In addition to liabilities, the Statement of Net Position reports a separate section for deferred inflows of resources. This separate financial
statement element represents an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an inflow of
resources (revenue) until that time. The items that qualify for reporting in this category are credits resulting from bond refunding and pension
and OPEB-related credits arising from changes in actuarial assumptions and timing differences. The former category includes the current value of renegotiated terms of certain bonds, particularly the waiving of call rights on certain bonds. Such renegotiation does not constitute
refunding per se but has a similar economic and accounting effect.
Bond premiums and discounts are amortized in the government-wide and proprietary statements over the life of the issuances.
55
9. Fund Balance Flow Assumptions
10. Fund Balance/Net Position
a) Non-spendable fund balance (inherently non-spendable) includes the:
• Portion of net resources that cannot be spent because of their form.
• Portion of net resources that cannot be spent because they must be maintained intact.
b) Restricted fund balance (externally enforceable limitations on use) includes amounts subject to:
• Limitations imposed by creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws and regulations of other governments.
• Limitations imposed by law through constitutional provision or enabling legislation.
c) Committed fund balance (self-imposed limitations set in place prior to the end of the period):
d) Assigned fund balance (limitation resulting from intended use) consists of amounts where the:
• Intended use is established by the body designated for that purpose (City Council).
e)Unassigned fund balance (residual net resources) is the:
11. Use of Estimates
12. Restricted Net Position
• Limitation imposed at the highest level of decision-making that requires formal action (passage of an ordinance)at the same level to remove. For the City, the City Council is the highest level of decision-making authority.
• Intended use is established by an official authorized by the Council to make purchases, which includes the
heads of most departments.
•Negative unassigned fund balance is the excess over non-spendable, restricted, and committed fund balance
over total fund balance.
•Total fund balance in the General Fund is the excess over non-spendable, restricted, committed, and assignedfund balance.
Fund balance is presented on the Balance Sheet for governmental funds. The components of fund balance include the following line items: a)
non-spendable fund balance, b) restricted fund balance, c) committed fund balance, d) assigned fund balance, and e) unassigned fund balance. For further explanation of each fund balance component, please see the following:
The preparation of the basic financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the City's management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the basic
financial statements and/or the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates, but the City believes that the differences will be insignificant. Among the items subject to estimates are pension
liabilities, OPEB liabilities, deferred inflows and outflows of resources related to pensions and OPEB, and certain receivables.
All net position reported as restricted in the accompanying Statement of Net Position is restricted due to legally enforceable contractual
obligations or Indiana law.
Sometimes the government will fund outlays for a particular purpose from both restricted and unrestricted resources (the total of committed,
assigned, and unassigned fund balance). In order to calculate the amounts to report as restricted, committed, assigned, and unassigned fund
balance in the governmental fund financial statements, a flow assumption must be made about the order in which the resources are considered
to be applied. It is the government's policy to consider restricted fund balance to have been depleted before using any of the components of
unrestricted fund balance. Further, when the components of unrestricted fund balance can be used for the same purpose, committed fund
balance is depleted first, followed by assigned fund balance. Unassigned fund balance is applied last.
Net position is presented on the Statement of Net Position. Net position represents the difference between (a) assets and deferred outflows of
resources and (b) liabilities and deferred inflows of resources. Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets, net of accumulated
depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any debt related to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets. Deferred
outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of these assets or
related debt are also included in this component of net position. Net position is reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on its
use, either through enabling legislation adopted by the City or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, laws, or regulations
of other governments.
56
H. Revenues and Expenditures/Expenses
1 . Program Revenues
2 . Property Taxes
3 . Income Taxes
4. Proprietary Funds Operating and Nonoperating Revenues and Expenses
Amounts reported as program revenues include 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use, or directly benefit from goods,
services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or
capital requirements of a particular function or segment. All taxes, including those dedicated for specific purposes, and other internally
dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues.
The Council is empowered to adopt property tax levies and rates, subject to certain statutory limitations. Taxable property becomes subject to
lien on January 1 of the year prior to the budget/levy year. Levy ordinances must be adopted before the following
November 1. Property taxes are due in two installments the following May 10 and November 10. The county government collects the taxes
and distributes them, generally, in two installments, June 30 and December 31 of the budget/levy year. The county may make advances as
taxes are collected.
Taxable property is assessed at its value on January 1 of the year prior to the budget/levy year, and, before November 1 of that year. The Council is empowered to adopt the ensuing year property tax levies and rates. The Council’s action is subject to certain statutory limitations.
In some instances, these statutory limitations may be appealed by the City, and adjusted as appropriate by the Indiana Department of Local
Government Finance (DLGF). Such appeals must be filed by the City by October 10 or December 31, depending on the nature of the appeal.
After November 1, levies, rates, and appropriations adopted by the Council are subject to review by the Indiana DLGF and adjusted, as
appropriate, to meet statutory requirements and to reflect the results of levy appeals. In some circumstances, taxpayers may also appeal the levies and rates at a public hearing before the DLGF. Review by the DLGF must be completed by December 31 or January 15, depending on
the type of levy appeal the City may file. Rates must then be published by county officials three times, at least one week apart. The County
Auditor then computes a tax bill for each parcel. The County Auditor must apply a credit to each real estate tax bill that exceeds a certain
percentage of the gross assessed value of the parcel. Those percentages are 1% for most single-family owner-occupied residences, 2% for
most other residential property, and 3% for commercial and other real property. The credit is funded by reducing a portion of the levy of the City and each other overlapping taxing jurisdiction, on a pro-rata basis. Tax bills, net of credits, are due and payable in two installments on
May 10 and November 10 of the budget/levy year. The City considers property tax revenue to be receivable when it is due and payable by the
property owner, at which time the City has an enforceable legal claim on the revenue.
The City benefits from an income tax that was imposed by joint vote of several Hamilton County units of general government and collected by
the State of Indiana. Each July 1, the Indiana Department of Revenue determines the amount of tax processed on returns filed for the previous
year. That amount is certified to the County Auditor. It is distributed to the County Auditor on a pro-rata basis, monthly, during the ensuing
calendar year. The distributions are paid from accumulated collections from withholdings and direct taxpayer payments held in trust by the
Indiana Department of Revenue, which may result in a balance remaining in the trust account. The County Auditor allocates the distributions
to the City and other units of general government in accordance with a statutory formula based on the size of each unit's non-debt property tax
levy. Before May 2 of each year, the Indiana Department of Revenue determines if the accumulated balance that was held in trust on
December 31 two years preceding the determination exceeds fifteen percent (15%) of the certified distribution to be made to the county in the
determination year. If so, the excess is distributed to the County Auditor in May of the determination year. These supplemental distributions
are allocated immediately to the City and other units of general government in accordance with the same statutory formula as for regular
distributions. The City accounts for income tax revenue as a derived tax revenue. Accordingly, revenue is recognized in the Statement of
Activities when a taxpayer earns income. In the governmental funds, amounts certified for and distributed in the current year are recognized as
revenue, along with any additional amount in the trust fund that is expected to be distributed within 60 days.
Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from nonoperating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result
from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The
principal operating revenues of the water and sewer utility funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The Water Fund also recognizes as operating revenue the portion of tap fees intended to recover the cost of connecting new customers to the system. Operating
expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues
and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as nonoperating revenues and expenses.

II. Detailed Notes on Certain Activities and Funds
A. Cash and Investments
1. Deposits
The deposits and investments of the Pension and OPEB Trust Funds, as discussed in Notes II.F. and II.G. below, are held separately.
2. Investments
These investments are required by statute to have a stated final maturity of not more than five years.
Below is a segmented time distribution for the City's debt investments at December 31, 2021:

Interest rate risk is the risk that the fair value of investments will be adversely affected by a change in interest rates. The City has no formal
policy regarding interest rate risk. The City may invest in securities for more than two years and not more than five years in accordance with
Indiana law. Under this policy, investments having maturities of more than two years are limited to 25% of the total investments and other cash and cash equivalents held by the City.
2,574,249$

11,302,444$

Investments are valued at fair value. Fair value of substantially all investments is determined according to published, quoted prices for similar assets in active markets, observable for the entire term of the asset. Accordingly, investments are classified in level two of the hierarchy of fair
value.

Concentration risk is the risk that too many resources have been invested in a single issuer, and that issuer may fail. The City believes it is not
exposed to concentration risk because fewer than 5% of its investments are in a single issuer, other than the United States Government and its
agencies.
2,183,635$
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The City's policy regarding credit risk
is to comply with Indiana law, which limits the City to very low-risk investments. The City’s investments in Federal Home Loan Bank Board
and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation are rated AA+ by Standard & Poor’s and Aaa by Moody’s Investors Service and the municipal
bond investments are all rated AA or better by Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Service.
Fair Value
Deposits of Indiana local government units are regulated by Indiana law. Deposits may be made only in financial institutions determined
eligible by a State agency.
Custodial credit risk for investments is the risk that, in the event of failure of the counterparty to the transaction, the City will not be able to
recover the value of investment or collateral securities that are in possession of an outside party. The City does not have a formal investment
policy for custodial credit risk for investments. The City believes it is not exposed to investment custodial credit risk because its securities are held in trust in the City's name.

Custodial credit risk for bank deposits is the risk that, in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits may not be returned to it. The City's
policy for bank deposit custodial credit risk requires compliance with Indiana law.
The City has no deposits or investments denominated in foreign currencies and does not foresee having any foreign currency risk in the future.
19,134,114$ 30,436,558$
The City's total cash deposits at December 31, 2021, were $231,893,774, of which $12,501,973 is restricted and $219,391,801 is unrestricted.
The City's cash deposits are insured up to $250,000 at financial institutions insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Any cash deposits in excess of $250,000 are insured by the Indiana Public Deposits Insurance Fund (Fund) via the pledged collateral from the
institutions securing deposits of public funds. The Fund is a multiple financial institution collateral pool administered by the State of Indiana.
Investments by Indiana local government units are regulated by Indiana law. The City may invest in United States obligations and issues of
federal agencies, certain Indiana municipal securities, secured repurchase agreements fully collateralized by U.S. Treasury or U.S. agency
obligations, certificates of deposit, and certain money market mutual funds invested in U.S. Treasury or U.S. agency obligations.

the affected employees. When liabilities have arisen, other than debt, which were not related to compensation, the liabilities have
ordinarily been liquidated by the governmental funds that financed the activities that gave rise to the liabilities.

Various claims and lawsuits are pending against the City. At December 31, 2021, the administration believes the amount payable for claims
and judgments, if any, is not material in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.
Certain City officials are empowered to issue purchase orders and enter into contracts that constitute contractual obligations of the City. For
governmental funds, these obligations are included in, and do not exceed, the assigned, committed and restricted fund balances of the
respective funds.

Construction commitments for the Water and Sewer Enterprise Funds were $1,800,000 and $1,700,000, respectively.
6.Contingent Grants
The Carmel Redevelopment Commission, an integral part of the City, is contingently liable for the issuance of up to $25.5 million of
grants, via a community development corporation which is a component unit of the City. The purpose of the contingent grants is to
encourage private investment in the area served by the community development corporation. The grants are contingent upon the need to
cover payments on loans used to finance the private investment. As of December 31, 2021, no grant payments had been made by the City
in connection with these loans. The Administration believes no such payments will be needed in the future.

The City has entered into certain transactions with private firms to redevelop designated real property meeting certain criteria. In these
instances, bonds are issued to finance improvements on property designated by the City but owned by the private firm and its affiliates. The
bonds are purchased by the same private firm and affiliates. The private firm may supplement these improvements with additional
improvements financed from its own resources. As improvements are completed, incremental property tax revenue is generated, and a pre-determined portion of that revenue is applied to the payment of the bonds. This pre-determined share of tax paid by the private firm is the sole
source of repayment. There is no recourse to the City if this revenue is inadequate to pay principal and interest on the bonds. The private firm
and its affiliates are, in substance, the property owner, the owner of the bonds, and the taxpayer. Accordingly, the bonds are not reported as
liabilities of the City in the accompanying financial statements. Following are the currently active transactions of this kind.

The City may be exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; job-
related illnesses or injuries to employees; medical benefits to employees, retirees, and dependents; and natural disasters. The City
administration believes these risks are adequately covered by the purchase of insurance. Settlements in excess of insurance, if any, have not been material in the past three years.
646,713$
In addition, each child of the deceased member will receive 20% of the monthly pay of a first-class officer or firefighter. Total benefit for all
such beneficiaries may not exceed the pension benefit the deceased member was receiving. In addition to the above benefit, a funeral benefit
of $12,000 will be paid to heirs of the deceased member.

The plans also offer a disability benefit whereby members of the police and fire departments who have suffered or contracted a mental or
physical disease or disability that renders the member unable to perform the essential function of the department will receive the greater of
55% of first-class salary or the pension benefit the member would have received if the member had retired on the disability date.

As established by Indiana law, the boards for the police officers' and firefighters' plans consist of eight and five members, respectively. On
each board, the mayor of the City and the chief of each department serve ex officio. On the police board, the Controller of the City also serves
ex officio. The remaining members are elected by the active members, police and firefighters, respectively. At least one member of each board must be a retired beneficiary of the respective plan.
2. If retired after December 31, 1985, receives 1% of first-class patrolman salary for each 6 months of service in excess of 20 years. The
total benefit may not exceed 74% of first-class salary.
910,893$
Benefits provided:
Effectively, benefits are subject to a cost-of-living adjustment because they are tied to current members' salaries, which tend to be adjusted
each year, as opposed to the historical salaries of the retirees.
Members of the police and fire departments hired prior to May 1, 1977, who retire with 20 or more years of active duty receive fifty percent of
the salary of a first-class patrol officer or firefighter plus:
The Municipal Police Officers' 1925 and Firefighters' 1937 Plans are distinct single-employer defined benefit pension plans. The plans are
administered by local pension boards. The plans provide retirement, disability, and death benefits to plan members and beneficiaries. The plan
administrator does not issue a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information of
the plan.
Amounts are paid into the Fund by user departments. Funds are available for claims, claim reserves, and administrative costs of the program.
Interfund transfers into the Fund are based upon the actual claims incurred of each department's current year eligible employees. The basis for
estimating unpaid claims, including specific incremental claim adjustment expenditures, if any, is a study of actual claims experience in recent
past periods.
The City has chosen to establish a Self Insurance Fund to mitigate the risk of loss related to employee health claims. An excess liability policy
through commercial insurance covers individual claims in excess of $175,000 per year.

Assumptions and Other Inputs
Active members of the 1925 Police Officers' and 1937 Firefighters' plans had the option of participating in the deferred retirement option plan
(DROP). Under that plan, an active member could declare in advance a future retirement date. From the time of that declaration, contributions
on behalf of that member would have been segregated into a separate fund for his benefit. Upon retirement, the member would have several options with regard to taking the balance in this fund in the form of a lump sum or future payments. The member's regular retirement benefits
would be paid as if he had retired on his declaration date. The City has no participants in DROP.
3.54% Police Officers; 3.58% Firefighters for 2019
December 31, 2021–Police Officers' member census data as of January 1, 2021, and

The City contributes to the Public Employees' Retirement Fund (PERF), which is administered by the Indiana Public Retirement System
(INPRS). It is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit plan. PERF provides retirement, disability, and survivor benefits to full-time
employees of the State not covered by another plan, those political subdivisions that elect to participate in the retirement plan, including the
City of Carmel, and certain INPRS employees. There are two tiers to the PERF Plan. The first is the Public Employees' Defined Benefit Plan (PERF Hybrid Plan), and the second is the Public Employees' Defined Contribution Plan (PERF My Choice Retirement Savings Plan).

Contribution Rates:
First time new employees hired by the State or a participating political subdivision who offers a choice, have a one-time election to join either the PERF Hybrid plan or PERF MC DC. Refer to the Description of Defined Contribution Funds for discussion of both the PERF
DC and PERF MC DC plans. A new hire that is an existing member of PERF Hybrid and was not given the option for the PERF MC
DC plan is given the option to elect PERF MC DC or remain in PERF Hybrid.
The employer defined-benefit contribution rate is based on an actuarial valuation and is adopted, and may be amended, by the INPRS Board.
For 2021, the City contributed 11.2% of employee compensation to the plan. The DC Account consists of the employee contribution, which
is set by statute at 3% of compensation, as defined by Indiana statutes, plus the interest/earnings or losses credited to the employee's account.
The employer may choose to make the contributions on behalf of its participating employees, which the City has elected to do. In addition,
under certain circumstances, employees may elect to make additional voluntary contributions of up to 10% of their compensation into their
DC Account. An employee's contribution and interest credits belong to the employee and do not belong to the State or the City.
Age 50 and minimum of 15 years of creditable service (44 percent of full benefit at age 50, increasing five percent per year up to 89
percent at age 59).
The total pension liability is determined by INPRS actuaries in accordance with GASB No. 67 and No. 68, as part of their annual actuarial
valuation for each defined benefit retirement plan. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported amounts (e.g., salaries, credited service) and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future (e.g., mortality,
disabilities, retirements, employment terminations). Actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual review and potential
modifications, as actual results are compared with past expectations, and new estimates are developed. Key methods and assumptions used
in calculating the total pension liability in the latest actuarial valuations are presented below.
Employees who are compensated through the Parks Department of the General Fund and through certain other funds
committed or restricted for parks (Park).
The City plan is allocated between governmental and business-type activities based on the percentage of total civilian (non-uniformed)
PERF expenditures during the City's fiscal year ended December 31.
An active member qualifying for Social Security disability with five years of creditable service may receive an unreduced retirement
benefit for the duration of their disability (minimum of $180 per month).
There are two components to the PERF Hybrid Plan defined benefit structure: PERF DB, the monthly employer-funded defined benefit
component, along with the Public Employees' Hybrid Members Defined Contribution Account (PERF DC), a member-funded account.
City participants are viewed by INPRS to be classified into two groups, solely for purposes of actuarial evaluation:
If a member dies after June 30, 2018, a spouse or dependent beneficiary of a member with a minimum of 10 years of creditable
service receives a benefit as if the member retired the later of age 50 or the age the day before the member’s death.
If a member dies while receiving a benefit, a beneficiary receives the benefit associated with the member’s selected form of payment:
Five Year Certain & Life, Joint with 100 percent Survivor Benefits, Joint with Two-Thirds Survivor Benefits, or Joint with One-Half
Survivor Benefits.
The City's contribution to the plan for the year ending December 31, 2021, was $3,481,738 for City participants and $237,999 for the
Park participants, which was equal to the required contributions for the year.
Members who have service in both PERF DB and either TRF Pre-'96 DB or TRF '96 DB, have the option of choosing from which of these
funds they would like to retire.

Each member is required to contribute to an Annuity Savings Account at the rate of 3% of pay (unless the
employer has opted to make the contribution for the employee). These contributions are kept on deposit and credited with interest based on the investment elections of each member until such time as they are withdrawn
or annuitized by the member.

The net pension liability (asset) is sensitive to changes in the discount rate. To illustrate the potential impact,
the following table presents the net pension liability of each defined benefit pension plan calculated using the
discount rate of 6.25 percent, as well as what each plan's net pension liability would be if it were calculated using a discount rate that is one percentage point lower (5.25%) or one percentage point higher (7.25%) than
the current rate:
The June 30, 2021 valuation was performed using census data provided by INPRS as of June 30, 2020.
Standard actuarial techniques were used to roll forward the total pension liability computed as of June 30,
2020 to the June 30, 2021 measurement date using actual benefit payments during that period of time.
The INPRS Board of Trustees has established a funding policy of setting the employer contribution rate equal to the greater of 11.2% (the current contribution rate) or a rate equal to the actuarially determined contribution
rate, which is based on the assumptions and methods selected by the Board for the annual actuarial valuations
and projected covered member payroll. The June 30, 2021 actuarial valuation assumes a long-term rate of
return on assets of 6.25%, a 20-year level dollar closed method for amortizing the future layers of unfunded
actuarial accrued liability (30 years for amortization layers established prior to June 30, 2016), and a 5-year smoothing method for recognizing investment gains and losses in the actuarial value of assets.
In the past several years, the Board has followed its current funding policy and the State has complied in its
contributions to the plan. Therefore, if past practice is continued, the appropriations will be sufficient to fully
fund the plan within 20 to 30 years. Deterministic projections indicate the actuarially determined contribution
rate will decline over the coming years. As a result, it is presumed that the projected plan assets will be
sufficient to cover the future benefit payments for current members and a detailed projection of plan assets
and cash flows has not been prepared.

The employer-funded monthly pension benefits for members in pay status are increased periodically to
preserve purchasing power that is diminished due to inflation. Such increases are not guaranteed by Statute
and will only be provided by legislative action.
The early retirement benefit is the accrued retirement benefit determined as of the early retirement date and
payable commencing at the normal retirement date. A member may elect to have the benefit commence prior
to normal retirement provided the benefit is reduced by 1/10% for each of the first 60 months and by 5/12%
for each of the next 120 months that the benefit commencement date precedes the normal retirement date. The
minimum monthly benefit is $180 if the member has at least 10 years of creditable service.
The Annuity Savings Account benefit is in addition to the annuity benefits provided by employer
contributions. During FYE 2018, the Annuity Savings Accounts were completely separated from the defined
benefit plan, and so are no longer relevant to the valuation process.
Member will receive a monthly benefit for life, but there are no monthly payments to anyone after death.
However, the balance of the Annuity Savings Account will be distributed to the beneficiary or estate if it is
larger than the payments previously made to the member.
A "13th check" was paid to each member in pay status during fiscal year 2018, 2019, 2020 and 2021. The
amount of the 13th check varied based on the years of creditable service the member had earned prior to
retirement.
The disability retirement benefit is the accrued retirement benefit determined as of the disability date and
payable commencing the month following disability date without reduction for early commencement. The
minimum monthly benefit is $180.
The minimum pension benefit paid to a member with 10 or more years of creditable service receiving any
pension benefit is $180 per month.
Member will receive a monthly benefit for the rest of their life. If the member dies before receiving benefits
for 5 years, the beneficiary will receive that monthly benefit for the remainder of those 5 years or a lump sum distribution equal to the present value of those payments. After 5 years, there are no payments available to the
beneficiary.
The spouse or dependent beneficiary is entitled to receive the monthly life benefit payable immediately under
the assumption that the member retired on the later of age 50 or the date before the date of death and elected
the joint and full survivor option. The minimum monthly benefit is $180 if the member has at least 10 years of creditable service.
Legislation passed in the 2018 legislative session creates a funding mechanism to provide for future benefit
increases or 13th checks. The INPRS Board has the authority to have employers contribute up to 1% of
member pay into the fund.
b. Benefit with No
Guarantee

Beneficiary Benefit
The termination benefit is the accrued retirement benefit determined as of the termination date and payable
commencing at age 65. If the member has 15 or more years of creditable service, then the member may elect
to receive a reduced early retirement benefit prior to age 65. The minimum monthly benefit is $180 if the
member has at least 10 years of creditable service.
The normal retirement benefit is a pension payable for life with 60 months guaranteed and is equal to 1.1% of
average monthly earnings multiplied by years of creditable service earned. The minimum monthly benefit is
$180 if the member has at least 10 years of creditable service.

Increases or payments are made upon passed legislation subject to the availability of funds to provide the
benefit. Legislation passed in 2021 provided for a 1% increase effective January 1, 2022 and no increase
through the remainder of the biennium.

year certain period.
Changes in actuarial assumptions:
Employer Contribution
Rates
The actuarial cost method is Entry Age Normal - Level Percent of Payroll.
The COLA Surcharge is developed by determining the assets needed at the start of the next biennium to fund
the post-retirement benefit increases anticipated to be granted in that biennium. This amount is divided by the
present value of expected payroll over which the accumulations will occur.
Actuarial Value of Assets is equal to a five-year smoothing of gains and losses on the Market Value of Assets
subject to a 20% corridor.
Member will be paid a monthly benefit for life. After death, the same monthly benefit will be paid to the
beneficiary for their lifetime.
Based on the assumptions and methods previously described, an actuarially determined contribution rate is
computed. The Board considers this information and has ultimate authority in setting the employer
contribution rates.
In order to select this option, the member must choose to combine at least a portion of their Defined
Contribution Account with their lifetime monthly pension benefit. If selected, the member will receive a
monthly benefit for the rest of their life. If the member dies before receiving payments for 5 years, the
beneficiary will receive the pension portion of their monthly benefit for the remainder of those 5 years or a
lump sum equal to the present value of those remaining payments. Also, upon death (whether death occurs
before or after receiving 5 years of benefits), the beneficiary may receive any remaining balance of the
Defined Contribution Account.
Before age 62, the member’s benefits will equal the sum of the member’s Social Security estimate, multiplied
by actuarial factors, and the member’s early retirement benefit. This will result in the member receiving a
larger monthly benefit payment before age 62. After age 62, the member’s benefit will equal the difference
between the member’s Social Security estimate, multiplied by actuarial factors, and the member’s pre-62
monthly pension benefit. Depending upon the member’s estimated Social Security disbursement, benefit
payments may be greatly reduced or terminated at age 62.
Member will be paid a monthly benefit for life. After death, one-half (1/2) of the benefit will be paid to the
beneficiary for their lifetime.
The investment return assumption was lowered from 6.75% (as of June 30, 2020) to 6.25%.
Price inflation was lowered from 2.25% (as of June 30, 2020) to 2.00%.

Male members are assumed to be three years older than their spouses and female members are assumed to be
two years younger than their spouses.
e. Joint with One-Half

A member who retires between ages 50 and 62 may integrate the PERF monthly pension benefit with the
member’s estimated Social Security benefits. This does not affect the amount of the benefit received from the
Social Security Administration.
80% of male members and 65% of female members are assumed to be married and or to have a dependent
beneficiary.
The Anticipated Payroll for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2021 is equal to the actual payroll during the year
ending June 30, 2021, increased with one year of salary scale.
General wage inflation was lowered from 2.75% (as of June 30, 2020) to 2.65%.
Legislation granted a 1.00% cost-of-living adjustment effective January 1, 2022 to be paid from the Supplemental
Reserve Account. No supplemental benefits were granted for fiscal year 2023. This replaces the COLA assumption of
0.4% for Fiscal Years 2022 and 2023 but does not change the assumption for future years.78

Deferred inflows of resources resulting from the differences between projected and actual investment earnings on Plan investments are
amortized over a 5-year period. A change in an employer's proportionate share represents the change as of the current year measurement date versus the prior year measurement date, and is amortized over the average expected remaining service lives of the plan. The difference
between an employer's contributions and the employer's proportionate share of the collective contributions is amortized over the average
expected remaining service lives of the plan. Differences between expected and actual experience and changes in assumptions are amortized
over the average expected remaining service lives of the plan. Amounts reported as deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of

The total pension liability is determined by INPRS actuaries in accordance with GASB No. 67 and No. 68, as part of their annual actuarial
valuation for each defined benefit retirement plan. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of reported
amounts (e.g., salaries, credited service) and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future (e.g., mortality,
disabilities, retirements, employment terminations). Actuarially determined amounts are subject to continual review and potential
modifications, as actual results are compared with past expectations, and new estimates are developed. Key methods and assumptions used
in calculating the total pension liability in the latest actuarial valuations are presented below.

Detailed information about the pension plan's fiduciary net position is available in a stand-alone financial report of INPRS that includes
financial statements and required supplementary information for the plan as a whole. This report may be obtained by writing the Indiana

The 1977 Police Officers' and Firefighters' Pension and Disability Fund is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer defined benefit pension
plan administered by the Indiana Public Retirement System (INPRS) for all police officers and firefighters hired (or rehired) after
April 30, 1977.
Proportionate Share of the Net Pension Asset:
-
The City's contribution to the plan for the year ending December 31, 2021, was $2,197,128 for police participants and $2,787,164 for fire
participants, which was equal to the required contributions for the year.
Year Ending December 31,
(858,872)$
The funding policy for the 1977 Fund requires remittances of member and employer contributions based on percentages of the salary of a
first-class officer or firefighter and not on actual payroll. The employer contribution rate is actuarially determined. The required
contributions are determined and may be amended by the INPRS Board of Trustees. Since the 1977 Fund is a cost-sharing pension plan, all
risks and costs, including benefit costs, are shared proportionately by the participating employers. For the fiscal year 2021, plan members
were required to contribute 6 percent and participating employers were required to contribute 17.5 percent of the first-class officers' and
firefighters' salary. Employers may elect to pay all or part of the contribution for the member.
2026
(126,630)
The fund provides retirement, disability, and survivor benefits to full-time sworn officers of a police force of an Indiana city or eligible
town, along with full-time firefighters employed by an Indiana city, town, township, or county. Administration of the fund is generally
in accordance with Indiana Code Article 36-8 and Indiana Administrative Code Article 35-2, other Indiana pension law.

A funeral death benefit is paid to the heirs or estate upon the member's death from any cause and is equal to at
least $12,000. An additional death benefit of $150,000 is paid from the Pension Relief Fund to a surviving
spouse, children, or parent(s) if death occurs in the line of duty.
A payment shall be made to each child of a deceased member equal to 20% of the member's benefit until the
later of (a) the date the child becomes age 18, or (b) the date the child becomes age 23 if enrolled in a
qualified school. If a child is at least 18 and is mentally or physically incapacitated, the child is entitled to an amount equal to the greater of 30% of the base salary, or 55% of the member's benefit payable for the
duration of the incapacity. If the member does not have 20 years of service or is not at least age 52 on the date
of death, the benefit is computed as if the member does have 20 years of service and is age 52 on the date of
death.
All other impairments that are not Class 1 or Class 2. The disability benefit is equal to a base benefit of 1%
of base salary for each year of service up to a maximum of 30 years of service, plus an additional amount
between 10% and 45% of this salary based on degree of impairment. If the member's total benefit is less
than 30% of this salary and the member has fewer than 4 years of service, then the benefit is payable for a
period equal to the years of service of the member. Otherwise, the benefit is payable until age 52, at which
time the member is entitled to a retirement benefit based on 20 years of service.
If a member dies in the line of duty, the spouse's benefit is equal to the monthly benefit the member was
receiving or was entitled to receive on the date of death.
A proven duty-related disease. The disability benefit is equal to a base benefit of 22% of base salary, plus
an additional 0.5% of this salary for each year of service up to a maximum of 30 years of service, plus an
additional amount between 10% and 45% of this salary based on degree of impairment. If the member's
total benefit is less than 30% of this salary and the member has fewer than 4 years of service, then the
benefit is payable for a period equal to the years of service of the member. Otherwise, the benefit is payable
for life.
A personal injury that occurs while on duty, while responding to an emergency, or due to an occupational disease. The disability benefit is equal to a base benefit of 45% of base salary, plus an additional amount
between 10% and 45% of this salary based on degree of impairment. The benefit is payable for life, at
which time the member is entitled to a retirement benefit based on the salary and service the member would
have earned had the member remained in active service.
This disability benefit is for members hired after 1989, or hired prior to January 1, 1990, who have chosen to
be covered by this disability benefit. The following describes the three different classes of impairments and the amount of base benefit for each class:
If a deceased member leaves no surviving spouse, no qualified dependent child, nor a dependent parent, a
refund of the member's contributions plus accumulated interest will be made to the member's estate.

20% are assumed to be in the line of duty and 80% are other than in the line of duty.
If the member elected to participate in the DROP, the member may, upon retirement, elect to forego DROP benefits, and instead receive monthly retirement benefits calculated as if the member never elected to
participate in the DROP. These benefits would be based on accrued service and base salary as of the date the
member retires.
Deferred retirement option
plan (“DROP”)
b. Joint with 70%survivor benefits Member will be paid a monthly benefit for life. After death, 70% of the benefit will be paid to the spouse or
parent for their lifetime or the dependent until age 18.
Based on the assumptions and methods previously described, an actuarially determined
contribution rate is computed. The Board considers this information and has ultimate
authority in setting the employer contribution rate.
When a member enters the DROP, a “DROP frozen benefit” will be calculated. This is equal to the member's
monthly retirement benefit based on accrued service and base salary as of the date member enters the DROP.
Upon DROP retirement, the member is eligible to receive a lump sum equal to the amount of the DROP
frozen benefit multiplied by the number of months in the DROP. You may elect to receive this amount in
three annual installments instead of in a single lump sum. In addition, the member will receive a monthly
retirement benefit equal to the DROP frozen benefit. The member will not continue to accrue service credit
for the years in the DROP. Cost of living adjustments will not apply to the frozen monthly benefit while in the
DROP. The cost of living adjustments will begin to be applied to the frozen monthly benefit, however, in the
year after the year in which the member retires.
The DROP is an optional form of benefit, which allows members who are eligible for an unreduced
retirement benefit to continue to work and earn a salary while accumulating a DROP benefit payable in a
lump sum or three annual installments. A member who elects to enter the DROP shall execute an irrevocable
election to retire on the DROP retirement date. The member shall select a DROP retirement date not less than
12 months and not more than 36 months after the member’s DROP entry date. While in the DROP, the
member shall continue to make applicable fund contributions.
Benefits for retired members are increased annually based on increases in the CPI-U index. The increase is
subject to a 3% maximum and 0% minimum.
Members are assumed to elect either a single life annuity or a 70% joint survivor
benefit based on the marriage assumptions below.
80% of male members and 60% of female members are assumed to be married and or
to have a dependent beneficiary.
Decrement timing
Male members are assumed to be three years older than their spouses and female
members are assumed to be two years younger than their spouses.
The anticipated payroll for the fiscal year following the valuation date is equal to the
actual payroll during the year ending on the valuation date, increased with one year of
salary scale.
The Actuarial Value of Assets smooths the recognition of gains and losses on the
Market Value of Assets over five years, subject to a 20% corridor.
The actuarial cost method is Entry Age Normal - Level Percent of Payroll.
Decrements are assumed to occur at the beginning of the year.
Form of payment
Members who are participating in the DROP are assumed to receive an annuity benefit
commencing at the end of their DROP period, as well as a lump sum payment equal to
the number of years they were in the DROP times their annual annuity benefit.
Member will receive a monthly benefit for life, but there are no monthly payments to anyone after death.

Deferred inflows of resources resulting from the differences between projected and actual investment earnings on Plan investments are
amortized over a 5-year period. A change in an employer's proportionate share represents the change as of the current year measurement date
versus the prior year measurement date, and is amortized over the average expected remaining service lives of the plan. The difference
between an employer's contributions and the employer's proportionate share of the collective contributions is amortized over the average
expected remaining service lives of the plan. Differences between expected and actual experience and changes in assumptions are amortized
over the average expected remaining service lives of the plan. Amounts reported as deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of
resources will be recognized in pension expense as follows:

retiree is over 65) is eligible to receive 50% to 75% of the employee-only (or spouse-only) premium using the same formula. The City’s
contribution will not exceed $900 per month (up to$10,800 per year). Retiree contributions for a married couple that works for the City are
based on service of the individual employed for the longer period of time (not to exceed 75% of the total premium). The City contributes
100%of the premium for medical and dental coverage for those who are killed in the line of duty with no maximum contribution. The City
pays 50% for work-related disabilities. All other retirees pay 100% of the premium rate.

calculated using healthcare cost trend rates that are 1-percentage point lower or 1-percentage-point higher than the current healthcare cost
trend rates:
The Required Supplementary Information immediately following the Notes to the Financial Statements presents multi-year trend information
about whether the actuarial value of Plan assets is increasing or decreasing over time relative to the actuarial accrued liability for benefits.
Under this method, as used in the December 31, 2021, OPEB valuation, the Actuarial Present Value (APV) of Benefits (APVB) of each
individual included in the valuation is allocated on a level basis over the earnings of the individual between entry age and assumed exit age(s). The employer portion of this APVB allocated to a valuation year is the Employer Normal Cost. The portion of this APVB not provided for at a
valuation date by the APV of Future Employer Normal Costs is the Total OPEB Liability.

Benefit-related costs are based on an established pattern of practice. Actuarial valuations of an ongoing plan involve estimates of the value of
reported amounts and assumptions about the probability of occurrence of events far into the future. Examples include assumptions about future
employment, mortality, and the healthcare cost trend. Amounts determined regarding the funded status of the Plan and the annual required
contributions of the employer are subject to continual revision as actual results are compared with past expectations and new estimates are made about the future. The Schedule of Funding Progress, presented as required supplementary information following the notes to the basic
financial statements, presents multiyear trend information about whether the actuarial value of Plan assets is increasing or decreasing over
time relative to the actuarial accrued liabilities for benefits.
At December 31, the deferred outflows / (inflows) of resources based on obligations for the Plan are as follows:
For the year ended December 31, 2021, the City recognized OPEB expense of $1,761,415. OPEB expense represents the change in the net OPEB liability during the measurement period, adjusted for actual contributions and the deferred recognition of changes in investment
gain/loss, and actuarial assumptions or method. At December 31, 2021, the City reported deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows

I. Deferred Compensation Plan
The City offers its employees certain deferred compensation plans established in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Sections 401(a)
and 457(b). The plans are available to all City employees and permits them to defer a portion of their salary until future years. The deferred
compensation is not available to employees until termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency. All assets of the plans are, until
paid or made available to the employee or other beneficiary, held in trust and are not subject to claims of the City's general creditors.
Therefore, the assets of the plans are not reported.
The City's liability to each participant is equal to the participant's deferred compensation, adjusted by an amount equal to the investment
performance in the related asset account. The City has no liability for losses under the plans but does have the duty of due care that would be
required of an ordinary prudent investor. Investments are managed by a trustee and investment decisions are made by individual employees.

December 31, 2021
SOA published mortality table: Pub-2010 General Employees amount weighted mortality table. Separate tables for males and female participants. Separate tables for active employees, healthy annuitants, contingent survivors, and disabled participants.
The plan is a PPO plan providing comprehensive major medical benefits to eligible retirees, their spouses, and dependents.
Monthly Premiums
Spousal coverage continues after the death of the retiree or after the retiree becomes eligible for Medicare, and ends at the spouse's
Medicare eligibility date.
Deductibles, out-of-pocket limits, and employee contributions are assumed to increase annually at the medical care cost trend rate. The
Lifetime Maximum was not increased.
COST METHOD
(Prescribed)
Eligible retirees are those who retire from the City of Carmel with at least 20 years of creditable employment with a public employer. If any of the years of
creditable employment includes employment with other public employers besides the City of Carmel, then the retiree must also be at least age 55 in order to
be eligible. Employees hired or disabled on or after October 3, 2016 are not eligible (except for those killed or disabled in the line of duty).
The city contributes 50% of the employee-spouse premium for a retiree who has 20 years of service with the city, plus 1% for each additional six months
of service, to a maximum of 75% of the cost of medical and dental coverage. A retiree with employee-only (or spouse-only, if the retiree is over 65) is
eligible to receive 50% to 75% of the employee-only (or spouse-only) premium using the same formula. The city’s contribution will not exceed $900 per
month (up to$10,800 per year). Retiree contributions for a married couple that works for the city are based on service of the individual employed for the longer period of time (not to exceed 75% of the total premium). The city contributes 100%of the premium for medical and dental coverage for those who
are killed in the line of duty with no maximum contribution. The city pays 50% for work-related disabilities. All other retirees pay 100% of the premium
rate.

The investment return assumption was lowered from 6.75% (as of June 30, 2020) to 6.25%.
Senate Enrolled Act No. 396 changed the definition of the first-class officer salary but, based on a sample of newly collected
first-class officer salaries, the change was deemed immaterial for purposes of this actuarial valuation and is, therefore, not
reflected in this valuation.
Note: Covered payroll for the purposes of this schedule was determined as of the City's fiscal year
ended December 31.
December 31, 2021
Note: The City is presenting its seventh ACFR since 2007. The information above is presented for as many years as
available. The schedules are intended to show information for 10 years. Years not shown are not available.
There were no changes in actuarial methods since the prior year.
House Enrolled Act No. 1001 was passed in April 2021 and granted a 1.00% cost-of-living adjustment effective January 1,
2022 to be paid from the Supplemental Reserve Account. No supplemental benefits were granted for fiscal year 2023.
Cost-of-living adjustments were lowered from 2.10% (as of June 30, 2020) to 1.95%. For benefits paid under the 2017 House
Enrolled Act No. 1617, the annual cost-of-living assumption was lowered from 2.75% to 2.65%.
General wage inflation was lowered from 2.75% (as of June 30, 2020) to 2.65%.
Price inflation was lowered from 2.25% (as of June 30, 2020) to 2.00%.
Legislation granted a 1.00% cost-of-living adjustment effective January 1, 2022 to be paid from the Supplemental Reserve
Account. No supplemental benefits were granted for fiscal year 2023. This replaces the COLA assumption of 0.4% for Fiscal
Years 2022 and 2023 but does not change the assumption for future years.
Interest on member balances was lowered from 3.50% (as of June 30, 2020) to 3.30%.

NOTES TO REQUIRED SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
BUDGETARY COMPARISON SCHEDULES
December 31, 2021
Budgetary Basis of Accounting
Annual budgets are required for the General Fund, Motor Vehicle Highway Fund, Fire Pension Fund, Police
Pension Fund, Local Road & Street Fund, Cumulative Capital Improvement Fund, Cumulative Capital
Development Fund, 2004 Road Bond Fund, and 2016 Property Tax Bond Fund. The original budget is the
first complete appropriated budget for the year.
The deadline for the adoption of annual budgets by the Common Council is November 1 of the previous
year. It is subject to adjustment by the Common Council and, in certain circumstances, by an Indiana State
agency.
The property tax levy is authorized at the time annual appropriations are adopted. Original budgeted
revenues represent the budgeted revenues submitted by the City along with budget expenditures, as adopted.
The final budget reflects official changes to those numbers.
The appropriated budget is prepared by fund, department, character, and/or object. Transfers of
appropriations require the approval of the Common Council. The legal level of budgetary control (i.e., the
level at which expenditures may not legally exceed appropriations) is the character and/or object.
Appropriations in all budgeted funds lapse at the end of the fiscal year unless they are encumbered.
Encumbrances are contractual obligations related to unperformed (executory) contracts for goods or services
(i.e., purchase orders, contracts, and commitments). Encumbrance accounting is utilized to the extent
necessary to assure effective budgetary control and accountability and to facilitate effective cash planning
and control.
The basis of accounting for the budget, and the actual revenues and expenditures provided for comparison,
is the cash basis, modified only by the addition of encumbrances to appropriations to arrive at the total
budget. Encumbrances are not added to actual expenditures because utilization of encumbrances is optional
at the managerial level.

Overlapping districts are those that coincide, at least in part, with the geographic boundaries of the
City. This schedule estimates the portion of the outstanding debt of those overlapping districts that is
borne by the residents and businesses of the City. This process recognizes that, when considering the
districts' ability to issue and repay long-term debt, the entire debt burden borne by the residents and
businesses should be taken into account.
(2) The percentage of overlapping debt applicable is estimated using taxable assessed property
value. Applicable percentages were estimated by determining the portion of another governmental
unit's assessed value that is within the City's corporate boundaries and dividing it by each unit's total
