Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate
remaining fund information of the City of Georgetown, Texas (the City), as of and for the year ended
September 30, 2018, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the
City’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this
includes 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.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted
our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America
and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued
by the Comptroller General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements 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 entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinions.

Opinions
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
respective financial position of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the discretely
presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the
City, as of September 30, 2018, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable,
cash flows thereof, and the respective budgetary comparison for the general fund for the year then
ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the City adopted the provisions of Government
Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 75, Accounting and Reporting for Postemployment Benefits
Other than Pensions, during the year ended September 30, 2018. Our opinions are not modified with
respect to this matter.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the
management’s discussion and analysis, Texas Municipal Retirement System pension schedules, Other
Post-employment Benefits schedules, and Modified Approach for Street Infrastructure Capital Assets as
listed in the table of contents be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such
information, 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 generallys 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.
Other 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 introductory section, combining and
individual major and nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules and statistical section are
presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial
statements. The schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented for the purposes of additional
analysis as required by the audit requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200,
Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards
(Uniform Guidance), and is also not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The combining and individual major and nonmajor fund financial statements and schedules and the
schedule of the expenditures of federal awards are the responsibility of management and were derived
from and relate directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic
financial statements. Such 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 major and nonmajor fund financial statements and
schedules and the schedule of expenditures of federal awards are fairly stated, in all material respects,
in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.
The introductory and statistical sections listed in the table of contents have not been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not
express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated
March 15, 2019 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 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
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.
