Mellelo Coffee. Projects in 2018 were Fidelity Quick Print, Crater Café and Betty
Barss on Front Street. In 2019 the city processed applications from Fidelity Quick
Print, Ravassipour Orthodontics, Ryan Kantor (Pfaff Building), Brodiart, LLC.,
and the Knight Building.
There has been a positive response and consistent number of applications for
grant assistance. It is recommended that the Development Commission continue
to set aside Urban Renewal money to promote the Façade Grant Program. Staff
has been approached by Grange Co-op for fence improvements along Hwy 99.
Several businesses are interested in the ability to improve their property and
have a little of the funds reimbursed.
The Development Commission budgets $35,000 per year for the grant program
and there has been discussion about expanding the boundaries to include
Manzanita and Oak Streets. The Commission members indicated that they are in
favor of expanding and would like to see how many buildings could be
considered for the program.
RESULT: FOR DISCUSSION ONLY
B. Urban Renewal Funding - Highway 99 Corridor Discussion(Presented by
Clayton)
City Manager Chris Clayton stated that staff would like to recommend creating a
Highway 99 Commercial Corridor/Artisian Corridor master plan. The Commission
approved $100,000 for an economic incentive for housing and those funds are
programmed in the 2019/2020 Development Commission Budget. There have
been several projects geared towards affordable housing in the area, but no one
has taken advantage of the program.
Staff is interested in creating a vision for the Highway 99 Corridor and create an
Urban Renewal economic incentive to help spur private property redevelopment
and attract unique businesses that fit the vision. We would like to use some of
the funds to hire a consultant to master plan the area and the possibility of
altering existing zoning and development requirements and allow flexibility for
potential developers. The ultimate goal of the master planning initiative would be
to generate economic market forces that attract and retain the business type that
the Development Commission desires throughout the Highway 99 Corridor. We
would like to focus our attention between the Twin Creeks Rail Crossing and Cup
Drive.
If we can master plan the area it could give current and future property owners a
vision with what could happen with their properties. By encouraging new
businesses and redevelopment it will improve the blighted areas along Hwy 99.
We would encourage sidewalks and street trees to match the already improved
area.

Mr. Clayton updated the Commission on the old Walmart property; developers
are considering rezoning part of the property to include affordable housing and
businesses towards Pine Street. We have met with developers interested in
doing this, but they have to get approval from the current property owners. Staff
is recommending to master plan this site to encourage developers. Walmart
would have to be onboard with the Masterplan idea.
Michael Parsons moved to direct staff to prepare a request for proposal
for master planning the Highway 99 Corridor.

Central Point, Oregon
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities and the General Fund of the Central
Point Development Commission (the Commission), a component unit of the City of Central Point, Oregon, as of and for the
year ended June 30, 2019, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Commission’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 of
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. Those standards require that we
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of 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 and the General Fund of the Central Point Development Commission as of
June 30, 2019, and the respective changes in financial position and the respective budgetary comparison for the General
Fund for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and
analysis 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
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.
Report on Other Legal and Regulatory Requirements
In accordance with the Minimum Standards of Audits of Oregon Municipal Corporations, we have issued our report dated
December 20, 2019 on our consideration of the Commission's compliance with certain provisions of laws and regulations,
including the provisions of Oregon Revised Statues as specified in Oregon Administrative Rules. The purpose of that report is
to describe the scope of our testing of compliance and the results of that testing and not to provide an opinion on compliance.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
CENTRAL POINT DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2019
This Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A) is presented to facilitate financial analysis and provide an overview of
the financial activities of the Central Point Development Commission (the Commission) for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 2019. Information in the MD&A is based on currently known facts, decisions and conditions. Please read it in
conjunction with the basic financial statements and the accompanying notes to those financial statements.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
The Commission’s assets totaled $502 thousand at June 30, 2019, and consisted mainly of cash and cash equivalents
of $485 thousand.
The Commission’s liabilities totaled $3,425 thousand at June 30, 2019, which consisted mainly of an advance from the
City of Central Point of $3,417 thousand.
Net position (assets minus liabilities) was negative $2,923 thousand at June 30, 2019. Net position increased by $315
thousand.
As of the end of the current fiscal year, the Commission’s general fund reported a fund balance surplus of $489
thousand.
Governmental fund revenues exceeded expenditures by $198 thousand.
Revenues for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 totaled $445 thousand and consisted mainly of property taxes of
$435 thousand.
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Commission’s basic financial statements are presented using the integrated approach as prescribed by GASB Statement
No. 34. The basic financial statements are comprised of the following components:
1.Government-wide financial statements
2.Fund financial statements
3 General Fund Budget to Actual Statements
4.Notes to the basic financial statements
The Commission has combined the government-wide and fund financial statements using a columnar format that reconciles
individual line items of fund financial data to government-wide data in a separate column.
The basic financial statements present financial information about the Commission as a whole and about its activities.
Following the basic financial statements is the report by the independent certified public accountants, as required by statute.
Government-wide Financial Statements
The government-wide financial statements are comprised of the Statement of Net Position and the Statement of Activities and
are designed to present the financial picture of the Commission in a manner similar to a private-sector business (i.e. from the
economic resources measurement focus using the accrual basis of accounting).
The Statement of Net Position includes all assets of the Commission as well as all liabilities (including long-term debt). Net
position is the difference between assets and liabilities, which is one way to measure the Commission’s financial health, or
financial position. Over time, increases or decreases in the Commission’s net position may be an indicator of whether its
financial health is improving or deteriorating.
The Statement of Activities presents information showing how the Commission’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 change occurs, regardless
of the timing of related cash flow. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only
result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g. uncollected taxes).
Fund Financial Statements
Funds are used to segregate resources for specific activities or objectives. The Commission has one governmental fund; the
Development Commission's General Fund.
The Governmental Fund statements emphasize available current financial resources rather than change in net position. They
are prepared using the current financial resources measurement focus and modified accrual basis of accounting.

assets and liabilities are included in the notes that should be read in conjunction with the basic financial statements.

Financial Analysis of the Government’s Funds
As noted earlier, the Commission uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal
requirements.
Governmental Fund. The focus of the Commission’s General Fund is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows
and balances of expendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the Commission’s financing requirements. In
particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government’s net resources available for spending
at the end of the fiscal year.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund and the only fund of the Commission. At the end of the current fiscal year, the
fund balance of the General Fund was $489 thousand, an increase of 198 thousand during the fiscal year.
DEBT ADMINISTRATION
At June 30, 2019, the Commission had a $3,417 advance from the City of Central Point. The advance was issued to finance
improvements in the East Pine Streetscaping project. In accordance with the Downtown and East Pine Street Corridor
Revitalization Plan adopted by the Commission, the maximum amount of indebtedness that the Commission can issue or
incur is $43,178. This amount was based upon good faith estimates of the scope and costs of projects in the Downtown and
East Pine Street Corridor Revitalization Plan.

For more detailed information on the Commission's long-term debt, refer to Note III. B. of the financial statements.
ECONOMIC FACTORS
It is the primary mission of the Central Point Development Commission's Board to eliminate blight and depreciating property
values within the urban renewal district. This mission will be accomplished through the strategic implementation of projects
and activities that consciously maximize both public and private investments within the Urban Renewal Area, investments that
are designed to target, facilitate and strengthen the economic and aesthetic vitality of the urban renewal district as the City's
traditional mixed-use urban core. The end result is both the physical and economic revitalization of the urban renewal area
with public assets, new private sector jobs, and revitalized neighborhoods providing for a full range of housing opportunities.
The current Downtown and East Pine Street Corridor Revitalization Plan was completed in 2012. This Plan was intended to
further the objectives of the City's strategic planning goals, strategies and actions as set forth in Central Point Forward, Fair
City Vision 2020, as adopted by the City and Commission.
Commission expenditures are based on the Downtown and East Pine Street Corridor Revitalization Plan, which defines the
Commission’s mission, and identifies fourteen goals and objectives to be accomplished by the Plan.
The "tax increment financing" method is being used to provide funds for the Commission. Under this method, a base year
value within the urban renewal area was established 2011. Any increase in the assessed value over that base year cannot
be used by the assessor to compute tax rates for local taxing bodies. The assessor computes the tax rate on the base year
value of the area, then applies that rate to the increase in assessed value. The tax on the increased value can be used by
the Commission only to pay indebtedness incurred to finance the urban renewal projects.
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION
The Commission’s financial statements are designed to present users with a general overview of the Commission’s finances.
Questions concerning any information provided in this report or requests for additional financial information should be
addressed to the Commission’s Executive Director, at 140 South Third Street, Central Point, OR, 97502.

CENTRAL POINT DEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
Notes to Financial Statements
June 30, 2019
Note I - Summary of significant accounting policies
A. Organization
Central Point Development Commission (the Commission) was organized in 2011 under the provisions of ORS
Chapter 457 as the urban renewal Commission in the City of Central Point, Oregon ("City"), responsible for
implementing various public improvement programs as identified in the Downtown and East Pine Street Corridor
Revitalization Plan. The Commission’s Board of Directors consists of the City of Central Point City Council.
The "tax increment financing" method is being used to provide funds for the Commission. Under this method, a
base year value within the urban renewal area is established (2011, in this case). Any increase in the assessed
value over that base year cannot be used by the assessor to compute tax rates for local taxing bodies. The
assessor computes the tax rate on the base year value of the area, then applies that rate to the increase in
assessed value. The tax on the increased value can be used by the Commission only to pay indebtedness
incurred to finance the urban renewal projects.
The East Pine Streetscape Construction Plan will remain in force until fall of 2037, or until the maximum amount of
indebtedness permitted under the Plan ($43,177,530) has been reached and all related debt service retired,
whichever comes first.
The Commission's financial statements include all activities and organizations with which the Commission
exercises authoritative appointment of governing authority or where financial dependency on the Commission
exists. The Commission has no potential component units but, as determined under generally accepted
accounting principles, is considered to be a component unit of the City of Central Point, Oregon, and, as such, is
included in the basic financial statements of the City for the year ended June 30, 2019, copies of which can be
obtained from the Finance Department of the City of Central Point Oregon, which is located at 140 S Third Street,
Central Point, 97502.
B. Measurement focus, basis of accounting, and financial presentation
The Statement of Net Position and Governmental Funds Balance Sheet and the Statement of Activities and
Governmental Fund Revenues, Expenditures, and Changes in Fund Balances display information about the
Commission, including all of its financial activities. The Commission's activities are financed primarily through
property taxes.
The basic financial statements listed in the table of contents provide information about the Commission's funds.
These funds account for the general administration of the Commission's urban renewal areas and for the
acquisition and rehabilitation of property within the designated urban renewal areas. The financial statements are
initially (left-most columns) 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 are considered to be available when 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 30 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 are
recorded only when payment is due.
Property taxes receivable which have been collected and received within 30 days subsequent to year end are
considered measurable and available, and are recognized as revenues in the governmental fund financial
statements. All other property taxes receivable are offset by deferred inflow of resources because they are not
deemed available to finance operations of the current period. Property tax receivables are deemed to be
substantially collectable or recoverable through foreclosure. Accordingly, no allowance for doubtful tax accounts is
deemed necessary.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the government's policy to use
restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources as they are needed.

Note I - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
B. Measurement focus, basis of accounting, and financial presentation (continued)
The government reports the following major governmental fund:
The General Fund is the Commission's primary operating fund. It accounts for all financial resources of the
general government.
On the same basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents, the balances are reported (right-most
columns) using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting using an
"adjustments" column. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is
incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Nonexchange transactions, in which the Commission
receives value without giving equal value in exchange, include property taxes. On the accrual basis of accounting,
revenue from property taxes is recognized in the fiscal year in which the taxes are levied.
C. Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses/expenditures during the reporting period. Actual results may
differ from those estimates.
D. Assets, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and net position/fund balance
1. Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are considered to be cash on hand, demand deposits, and short-term investments with
original maturities of three months or less from the date of acquisition, and deposits in the State of Oregon's
Treasurer's Local Government Investment Pool (LGIP).
2. Property taxes receivable
Real and personal property taxes are assessed and become a lien against the property as of July 1 each year, and
are payable in three installments on November 15, February 15, and May 15. Discounts are allowed if the amount
due is received by November 15 or February 15. Taxes unpaid and outstanding are considered delinquent on May
16. Management has determined that an allowance for uncollectible accounts is not required for property taxes.
3. Long-term liabilities
In the basic financial statements, under the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified
accrual basis of accounting, the face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources.
In the basic financial statements under the economic resources measurement focus and accrual basis of
accounting, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities.

Note I - Summary of significant accounting policies (continued)
D. Assets, liabilities, deferred inflows of resources, and net position/fund balance (continued)
4. Fund balance
In the fund financial statements, the fund balance for governmental funds is reported in classifications that
comprise a hierarchy based primarily on the extent to which the government is bound to honor constraints on the
specific purposes for which amounts in those funds can be spent. The fund balance classifications are:
Nonspendable - resources cannot be spent because they are either in a nonspendable form or legally or
contractually required to be maintained intact. Resources in nonspendable form include inventories, prepaids
and deposits, and assets held for sale.
Restricted - constraints placed on the use of resources are either: (a) externally imposed by creditors (such as
through debt covenants), grants, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (b) imposed by law
through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed - the City Council passes an ordinance that places specific constraints on how the resources may be
used. The City Council can modify or rescind the ordinance at any time through passage of an additional
ordinance.
Assigned - resources that are constrained by the City's intent to use them for a specific purpose, but are neither
restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed when the City Council approves which resources should be
"reserved" during the adoption of the annual budget.
Unassigned - resources that have not been restricted, committed, or assigned within the General Fund. This
classification is also used to report any negative fund balance amounts in other governmental funds.
All of the Commission's fund balance is reported as unassigned fund balance.
E. Budget
An annual budget is prepared and legally adopted for the General Fund in accordance with state statues. The
budget is adopted by the Board, appropriations made, and the tax levy is declared no later than June 30. The
resolution authorizing appropriations for each fund sets the level by which expenditures cannot legally exceed
appropriations. Appropriations at the principal object levels - personnel, materials and services (including
contractual payments), capital outlay, debt service, and operating contingency - are the levels of control
established by the resolution. The detailed budget document, however, is required to contain more specific,
detailed information for the above mentioned expenditure categories. Management may make transfers of
appropriations within object levels. However, transfers of appropriations between object levels require the
approval of the Board. Unexpected additional resources may be added to the budget through the use of a
supplemental budget. The Board, at a regular Board meeting, may adopt supplemental budgets of less than 10%
of the fund's original budget. A supplemental budget greater than 10% of the fund's original budget requires
hearings before the public, publication in newspapers, and approval by the Board.

Fund balances - governmental funds $488,772
Because the focus of governmental funds is on short-term financing, some
assets, such as receivables, will not be available to pay for current-period
expenditures. Receivables are offset by unavailable revenue in the
governmental funds, and thus are not included in the fund balance.
Adjustment of unavailable revenue 13,139
Long-term liabilities applicable to the Commission's governmental activities are
not due and payable in the current period and accordingly are not reported as
fund liabilities. All liabilities, both current and long-term, are reported in the
statement of net position. Balances at June 30, 2019 were:
Advance from the City of Central Point (3,417,000)
Accrued Interest Payable (7,517)(3,424,517)

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT REQUIRED
BY OREGON STATE REGULATIONS
To the Board of Directors
Central Point Development Commission
Central Point, Oregon
We have audited the basic financial statements of Central Point Development Commission (the Commission), as of and for
the year ended June 30, 2019, and have issued our report thereon dated December 20, 2019. We conducted our audit in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the provisions of the Minimum
Standards for Audits of Oregon Municipal Corporations, prescribed by the Secretary of State. Those standards require that
we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement.
Compliance
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Commission's basic financial statements are free of material
misstatement, we performed tests of the Commission's compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and
grants, including the provisions of Oregon Revised Statutes as specified in Oregon Administrative Rules 162-10-000 through
162-10-320 of the Minimum Standards for Audits of Oregon Municipal Corporations, noncompliance with which could have a
direct and material effect on the determination of financial statements amounts. However, providing an opinion on
compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
We performed procedures to the extent we considered necessary to address the required comments and disclosures which
included, but were not limited to the following:
Deposit of public funds with financial institutions (ORS Chapter 295)
Indebtedness limitations, restrictions and repayment
Budgets legally required (ORS Chapter 294)
Insurance and fidelity bonds in force or required by law
Authorized investment of surplus funds (ORS Chapter 294)
Public contracts and purchasing (ORS Chapters 279A, 279B, 279C)
In connection with our testing nothing came to our attention that caused us to believe the Commission was not in substantial
compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grants, including the provisions of Oregon Revised
Statutes as specified in Oregon Administrative Rules 162-10-000 through 162-10-320 of the Minimum Standards for Audits of
Oregon Municipal Corporations.
OAR 162-10-0230 Internal Control
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Commission's internal control over financial reporting as a basis for
designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the
purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Commission's internal control over financial reporting.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Commission's internal control over financial reporting.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in
the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A
material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control such that there is a reasonable
possibility that a material misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on
a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe
than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this
section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that might be deficiencies,
significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting
that we consider to be material weaknesses, as defined above.
