The Honorable Mayor, Members of City Council and Citizens of the City of Cibolo:

Statelawrequiresthatlocalgovernmentspublishacompletesetoffinancialstatementspresentedinconformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States of America and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of America by a firm of licensed certified public accountants. Pursuant to that requirement, we hereby issue the annual comprehensive financial report of the City of Cibolo for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024.

This report consists of management's representations concerning the finances of the City of Cibolo. 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 of the City ofCibolo has establisheda comprehensive internal control framework thatis designed both to protect the government's assets from loss, theft, or misuse; and to compile sufficient, reliable information for the preparation of the City of Cibolo's financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Because the cost of internal controls should not outweigh their benefits, the City of Cibolo comprehensive framework of internal controls has been designed to provide reasonable rather than absolute assurance that the financial statements will be free from material misstatement. As management, we assert that, to the best of our knowledge and belief, this financial report is complete and reliable in all material respects.

The City of Cibolo's financial statements have been audited by Armstrong, Vaughan, & Associates, PC, a firm of licensed certified public accountants. The goal ofthe independent audit was to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements of the City of Cibolo, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, are free of material misstatement. The independent audit involved examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements; assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management; and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. The independent auditor concluded, based upon the audit, that there was a reasonable basis for rendering an unmodified opinion that the City of Cibolo's financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, are fairly presented in conformity with GAAP. The independent auditor's report is presented as the first component of the financial section of this report.

GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview, and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City of Cibolo's MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors.

Profile of the Government

The City of Cibolo, incorporated in 1965, is located in the central part of Texas, which is considered to be a top growth area in the state, and one of the top growth areas in the country. The City of Cibolo currently occupiesalandareaof15.9squaremilesandservesanestimatedpopulationofover35,000.TheCityofCibolo is empowered to levy a property tax on both real and personal properties located within its boundaries. It also is empowered by state statue to extend its corporate limits by annexation, which occurs periodically when deemed appropriate by the governing body.

The City of Cibolo has operated under the council-manager form of government since September 2004. Policymaking and legislative authority are vested in a City Council consisting of the mayor and 7 members. The City Council is responsible for establishing public policy on City matters by the passage of appropriate ordinances and resolutions. The City Manager is responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations of the government, implementing policy established by City Council, and for appointing the heads of the various departments. In November 2021, citizens voted to alter the composition of City Council from 7 single member districts to 4 council members representing districts and 3 council members elected at-large. Since development of these four new districts, City Council is in a transition period until the next election cycle. City Council and the Mayor each serve three-year, staggered terms.

The City of Cibolo provides a full range of services, including police and fire protection, the construction and maintenance of streets and drainage ways, parks maintenance, water and wastewater services, building inspection, planning and zoning, municipal code compliance and animal services.

The annual budget serves as the foundation for the City of Cibolo's financial planning and control. All departments of the City of Cibolo are required to submit requests for appropriation to the City Manager by June of each year. The CityManageruses theserequests asthestarting pointfor developinga proposed budget. The City Manager then presents this proposed budget to the council for review prior to August 15th. The City Council holds public hearings and community meetings on the proposed budget and adopts a final budget by no later than September 30th, the close of the City of Cibolo's fiscal year. The City Council may authorize budget amendments as necessary during the year when unforeseen events occur. Budget to actual comparisons are provided in this report for each individual governmental fund for which an appropriated annual budget has been adopted. For the general fund, this comparison is presented on pages 69-72 as part of the required supplementary information.

Factors Affecting Financial Condition

The information presented in the financial statements is perhaps best understood when it is considered from the broader perspective of the specific environment within which the City of Cibolo operates.

Local economy

The City of Cibolo, strategically located on the Interstate 10 and Interstate 35 corridors just outside of San Antonio, is one of the fastest growing cities in the State. With the continued population growth, business activity in Cibolo has flourished. Several factors make Cibolo a premier place to do business: proximity to major urban conveniences, transportation options, and a young, highly educated and skilled workforce. In addition, the strong military presence in the area contributes to the stability in the area.

Cibolo’s first major retail development project, Wal-Mart Super Center opened in January of 2016. This construction spurred a lot of activity in the same general area with several personal service businesses, various quick service restaurants and other retailers locating in newly constructed strip centers nearby. This area now boasts over 40 sales tax generating businesses.

The Northern part of the City along IH35 is under development as well. In May 2019, Santikos Entertainment opened a family entertainment center in Cibolo. The entertainment center includes 12 theaters with luxury reclining seating, arcade games, sports bar and 16 bowling lanes. The facility employs approximately 75 people. In December 2021, Living Spaces opened a 140,000 square foot furniture store as another anchor in this center. This 80-acre project also includes the development of family restaurants and retail development and has had a significant impact on Cibolo’s economy. Future multi-family development in this area is anticipated and will further increase retail development.

Alongwithgrowthinnewretailsectors,Cibolo’sdowntownareaisalsoexperiencingrevitalization,withmany people drawn to the quaint atmosphere, good food and entertainment being offered in the ‘Old Town District’. A downtown Master plan is underway in 2025 to assist in further development in this area.

On the City’s IH-10 border, Aisin AW Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer of automobile transmissions completed construction of a 500,000 square foot production facility in the City of Cibolo. AW Texas expanded its facility to double its size in 2023. AW Texas has brought over 1000 primary jobs to Cibolo.

Long-term financial planning and relevant financial policies

The City of Cibolo fund balance policy sets the City’s guideline for maintaining a fund balance level in the general fund that contributes to our financial stability and our strong bond rating. It is the City’s goal to maintain fund balance at 28% of expenditures. Historically, the City has been very dependent on property tax revenue and building permits and fees. With the continued development of retail business, our revenues are expected to be more diverse which will help to maintain a stable property tax rate.

Major Initiatives

The City’s fiscal year 2025 budget considers a recovering economy and reduced reliance on grant funding from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). Major initiatives included:

 compensation increases for public safety positions funded by a voter-authorized tax increase to remain competitive with the market and enhance the City’s recruitment and retention efforts in this area,

 the addition of 2 drainage positions funded through user fees; and

 maintainingtheCity’sI&Staxrateat$0.1793per$100valuationtofundcapitalinfrastructureprojects and defease debt.

In addition, Certificates of Obligation issued in early 2025, funded by existing debt capacity will fund major major infrastructure road repairs in 2025.

Projects funded by prior bonds to address infrastructure challenges have been recently completed or are underway. These are discussed in greater detail in the MD&A.

Awards and Acknowledgements

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the City of Cibolo for its comprehensive annual financial report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2020. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized annual comprehensive financial report.

Cibolo is one of twenty-five cities in Texas that has achieved Gold recognition. There are five levels of recognition. The fourth level, Gold recognition, requires 80-89% of total possible points. The certification continues for five years.

San Antonio Magazine has mentioned Cibolo as one of the “Best Neighborhoods for Families.” Well-rated public schools, plentiful shopping, suburban atmosphere, affordable housing, with relatively easy commutes are a few of the factors that contributed to the endorsement.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT

To the Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council City of Cibolo, Texas

Report on Audit of the Financial Statements

Opinions

We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Cibolo as of and for the year ended September 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City of Cibolo’s basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.

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, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Cibolo, as of September 30, 2024, 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.

Basis for Opinions

We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America(GAAS)andthestandardsapplicabletofinancialauditscontainedin 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 arerequiredtobeindependentoftheCityofCiboloandtomeetourotherethicalresponsibilities,inaccordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Responsibilities of Management for the Financial Statements

The City of Cibolo’s 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, 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.

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 of Cibolo’s ability to continue as a going concern for one year after the date that the financial statements are issued, 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 aguaranteethatanauditconductedinaccordancewithGAASand Government Auditing Standards willalways detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higherthan for oneresulting from error, as fraud mayinvolvecollusion, 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 judgement 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 judgement 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 of Cibolo’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

 Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accountingestimatesmadebymanagement,aswellasevaluatetheoverallpresentationofthefinancial statements.

 Conclude whether, in our judgement, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raisesubstantialdoubtabouttheCityofCibolo’sabilitytocontinueasagoingconcernforareasonable 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 information, and schedules related to the City’s net pension and total other postemployment benefit liabilities – TMRS, 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 withmanagement’s responsesto 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.

Supplementary Information

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City of Cibolo’ basic financial statements as a whole. The comparative statements, and combiningand individualnonmajorfund financialstatements, are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements.

The comparative financial statements, combining and individual nonmajor fund financial statements 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, individual nonmajor fund financial statements, and SEFA are 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 report. The other information comprises the introductory section and statistical section but does not include the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinions on the 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 financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and consider whether a material inconsistency exists between the other information and the 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 March 26, 2025 on our consideration of CityofCibolo’sinternal controlover financial reporting and on our tests ofits 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 the 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 City of Cibolo’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.

Armstrong, Vaughan & Associates, P.C.

March 26, 2025

As management of the City of Cibolo, we offer readers of the City's financial statements this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City of Cibolo for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024. We encourage readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with additional informationthat wehave furnishedin ourletter oftransmittal, which can befound in the introductory section of this report.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

 The assets and deferred outflows of resources of the City of Cibolo exceeded its liabilities and deferred inflows of resources by $131.1 million (net position) at the close of the most recent fiscal year. Of this amount, $23.2 million (unrestricted net position) may be used to meet the City's operational needs.

 The City's total net position increased by $14.9 million mainly due to increased governmental and business-type revenues.

 The City’s deferred outflows totaled $2.7 million at year end, a decrease of $909 thousand in comparison with the prior year due to decreases in the contribution rates and experience rates

 The City’s deferred inflows totaled $1.7 million at year end, a decrease of $448 thousand in comparison with the prior year due to a decrease in investment earnings

 As of the close of the current fiscal year, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $25 million, a decrease of $3 2 million in comparison with the prior year. In the General Fund, the City budgeted a deficiency of revenues under expenditures of $195 thousand However, increase in fund balance of $667 thousand was a result of vacancy saving in public works and animal services and an increase in transfers from other funds. In support of General Fund administration services provided, the transfer from Utility Funds was increased from 2% to 3% in 2024. In addition, interest earned in the grant fund was transferred to the General fund as allowable under the grant program. Overall expenses in the General Fund were greater than budgeted overall mainly due tothe recognition ofcapital outlayfor law enforcement vehicles procured undera capital lease arrangement.

 At the end of the fiscal year, the combined total of the General Fund assigned and unassigned fund balanceswas$7.1millionwhichis32%or3.8monthsofthegeneralfundexpendituresnotincluding capital outlay.

 During the fiscal year, the City made payments on bonds, decreasing outstanding debt by $7.3 million, as of the end of the current year, the City had $66.6 million in bonds and other debt outstanding.

OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The discussion and analysis is intended to serve as the introduction of the City of Cibolo, Texas’ basic financial statements which are comprised of three components: (1) government-wide financial statements, (2) fund financial statements, and (3) notes to the financial statements.

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 financial presentation.

The statement of net position is a presentation of the City’s assets and liabilities, including capital and infrastructure assets, and long-term liabilities. This statement reports the difference between assets and liabilities 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 statement of activities presents information regarding increases and decreases to the government’s net position for the fiscal year. Changes in net position are recorded when the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs regardless of the timing of cash flows.

Therefore, revenues and expenses reported in this statement for some items will only result in cash flows in future fiscal periods (e.g., uncollected taxes and earned but unused personal leave). Both 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 or charges (business-type activities). Governmental activities include general government, public safety, public works, parks and recreation, library, and community development. The business-type activities of the City are water and sewer.

Fund Financial Statements –

The accounts of the City are organized on the basis of funds, each of which is considered a separate accounting entity. Government resources are allocated to and accounted for in individual funds based upon the purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled.

Fund financial statements are used to present financial information detailing resources that have been identified for specific activities. The focus of the fund financial statements is on the City’s major funds, although non-major funds are also presented in aggregate and further detailed in the supplementary statements. The City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with requirements placed on resources. Funds are divided into three types: governmental, proprietary, and fiduciary. However, the City does not have any fiduciary funds.

Governmental Funds – Governmental funds are used for essentially the same functions reported in the governmental activities in the government-widefinancial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources available for current spending, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of the fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government’s near-term financing requirements.

As 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.

Proprietary Funds – The City maintains multiple proprietary funds. Enterprise funds are used to report the functions presented in business-type activities in the government-wide financial statements. The City uses the enterprise fund to account for the provision of drainage, garbage, water, and sewer services to residents.

Proprietaryfundfinancialstatementsprovideseparateandmoredetailedinformationforthewaterandsewer fund. The water and sewer fund is considered a major fund of the City.

Notes to the Basic Financial Statements – The notes provide additional information that is essential to a full understanding of the data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements.

Other Information – In addition to the basic financial statements and accompanying notes, this report also presents certain required supplementary information on the City’s general fund budget, red light camera fund,andthestreetmaintenancefundbudget,whichareadoptedonanannualbasis.Abudgetarycomparison statement has been provided for these funds in order to demonstrate budgetary compliance with this budget.

In addition, this report also contains certain required supplementary information concerning the City of Cibolo’s progress in funding its obligation to provide pension benefits and other post employment benefits.

The combining statements referred to earlier in connections with non-major governmental funds are presented immediately following the required supplementary information.

GOVERNMENT-WIDE FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

Below is a comparative summary of the governmental activities and business-type activities as required by GASB Statement No. 34.

TABLE A-1

Deferred outflows of resources are related pensions and other post-employment benefits and represent a consumption of net position that applies to future period(s) and will not be recognized as an expenditure until then. Deferred inflows of resources are related to other post-employment benefits and represent an acquisition of net position that applies to a future period and will not be recognized as revenue until that time. Additional information regarding the City’s deferred outflows and deferred inflows of resources can be found in Notes 8 and 9 of this report.

The largest portion of the City’s net position, $91.6 million, represents its investment in capital assets (e.g., land, construction in progress, buildings, machinery, and equipment, net of accumulated depreciation), less any related debt used to acquire those assets that are still outstanding. The City of Cibolo, Texas uses these assets to provide services to citizens; consequently, these assets are not available for future spending. Although the City’s investment in its capital assets is reported net of related debt, it should be noted that the resources needed to repay this debt must be provided from other sources, since the capital assets themselves cannot be used to liquidate these liabilities.

Of the other net position, $16.9 million represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how theymay be used. $22.6million(unrestricted net position) may be usedto meet the City’s operational needs.

Governmental activities increased net position by $4.9 million, which is attributable to fluctuations in program revenues and expenses. Key elements of this increase are as follows:

Financial Analysis of the Government's Funds

As noted earlier, the City of Cibolo uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.

Governmental Funds - Activities of the primary government’s general fund, capital projects fund, special revenue funds and debt service funds are considered general government functions. The general fund is the City’s general operating fund. The capital projects fund is used to account for financial activity related to the acquisition and construction of major capital facilities. Special revenue funds are used to account for proceeds of specific sources that are legally restricted as to expenditures. The debt service funds are used to account for financial activity related to the City’s general bonded indebtedness, as well as long-term obligations.

As September 30, 2024, the City’s governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $25.0 million, a decrease of $3 2 million in comparison with fiscal year 2023 The General fund which is the chief operatingfundoftheCity,attheendofthecurrentfiscalyear,hadanunrestrictedfundbalanceof$7million, or approximately 3.8 months of operating expenditures (excluding Capital Outlay and Debt Service).

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, the fund balance of the City’s General fund increased by $667 thousand. Key factors in the increase are as follows:

• The increase is mostly attributed to unbudgeted insurance proceeds from a totaled fire apparatus.

• The city experienced continued growth in taxes as the population continues to rise from new residents and development.

• Budgeted expenditure growth did not occur, namely among salaries across the board as the City was not able to fill as many open positions as anticipated.

• While revenues were below budget overall, the City experienced anticipated growth in revenues of $1.1 million.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, the fund balance of the City’s Grant Fund decreased by $86 thousand, as they continued spending American Rescue Act monies on various approved projects.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, the fund balance of the City’s Traffic Impact Fund increased by $813 thousand, as they continued to collect Impact fees for future development.

For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, the fund balance of the City’s Capital Project fund decreased $2.95 million, this was mainly caused by $10.9 million in Capital Expenditures and $1.9 million being transferred out to support capital projects in other funds.

The Debt Service fund has a total fund balance of $1.4 million, all of which is restricted for the payment of debt service. The net increase in the fund balance during the current year in the debt service fund was $116 thousand

Proprietary Funds - The City's proprietary fund provided the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail.

Unrestricted net position of the Water and Sewer fund and Drainage fund at the end of the year amounted to $8.4 million and $774 thousand, respectively The total increase in net position for the Water and Sewer fund was $4.5 million and $3.7 million for the Drainage fund Most of this increase is due to maintaining the ratio of revenue to expenditures.

GENERAL FUND BUDGETARY HIGHLIGHTS

Over the course of the year, the City revised its budget for a total increase in expenditures of $501 thousand to complete contracts for professional services and capital outlay started in 2023 and to support an increase in legal costs. The City’s General Fund was under budget within its revenue, but continued to experience growth in taxes as development brought in business and new residents.

Capital Assets - The City’s investment in capital assets for its governmental and business- type activities as of September 30, 2024 amounted to $150 million (net of accumulated depreciation). This investment in capital assets includes land, buildings, improvements, machinery and equipment, park facilities, and roads. The City’s investment in capital assets for the current fiscal year increased by $18 million from fiscal year 2023, as they continued to work on major construction projects.

ECONOMIC FACTORS AND NEXT YEAR’S BUDGETS AND RATES

Bond rating. For the City’s most recent public sale of bonds in 2025, Standard and Poor’s (S&P) Ratings Servicesassignedaratingof“AA+”,withastableoutlook.Thisratingisanupgradefromtheprevious“AA” rating. This upgrade reflects the city’s rapid tax base and economic growth and stable finances. The “AA+” rating allows the City to sell bonds at lower interest rates. The upgrade is a testament that the City is on soundeconomicfootingandhasimplementedplansandpoliciesthatwillhelppreparetheCityforthefuture. Credit fundamentals supporting the upgrade include:

 The city's location within the San Antonio-New Braunfels metropolitan area, which has helped fuel rapid tax base and population growth, and support significantly higher income metrics relative to county and national levels.

 Generally positive operating performance, with planned capital spending generating the general fund drawdowns in fiscal years 2022 and 2023, after available reserves had grown to more than double the city's fund balance policy minimum. Unaudited results for fiscal 2024 show a general fund surplus, and officials expect balanced results for fiscal 2025.

 Available general fund reserves that are maintained in accordance with the city's minimum policy of 28% of recurring operating expenditures, which we expect the city will continue to maintain. The city has two privately placed debt obligations outstanding, but we have reviewed the documents and do not consider them contingent liquidity risks.

 Budgeting practices that support consistently better-than-budgeted results, and regular budget monitoring via monthly budget-to-actual reporting provided to the council. The city maintains a five-year bond-funded capital improvement plan that is included in its annual budget, as well as a stand-alone general fund forecast that helps inform financial decision-making. It has also adopted investment, debt management, and reserve policies, and provides quarterly investment reports to the council. Management has implemented policies and practices to help mitigate the city's exposure to cyber-security threats.

 Somewhat elevated fixed costs, which reflect the city's growth-related capital needs and rapid amortization. Although the city may issue $17 million of COs and $24 million of GO bonds over the next two years, we do not expect its debt and liabilities profile will significantly change. Pension and other postemployment benefits (OPEBs) are not an immediate budgetary pressure given the adequate pension funding status and limited OPEB liability.

Local economy. The City of Cibolo is one of the fastest growing cities in the State. The strong military presence in the area contributes to our growth and job stability. Located 13 miles from downtown San Antonio along Interstate 35, Cibolo is an established residential suburb that offers easy access to leading employment centers throughout the San Antonio-New Braunfels MSA. With the high population growth, the Cibolo economy has become attractive for commercial development and continues to see new business interest and commercial activity.

Cibolo’s first major retail development project opened in January of 2016, stimulating Cibolo’s economy. Since 2016, many businesses have followed. These include fast food restaurants, convenience stores, auto parts retailers, auto repair and maintenance services, medical, minor emergency, dental and orthodontic services, and childcare facilities. More recently, the northern part of the City along IH35 has begun to develop. In mid-2019, Santikos Entertainment completed a major family entertainment complex. The entertainment complexincludes 12theaters withluxury recliningseating, arcades, sports bar and16 bowling lanes. This 80-acre project, anchored by the entertainment complex, will ultimately include the development of family restaurants and retail development and is expected to have a significant impact on Cibolo’s economy. Magnolia Pancake Haus and Willie’s Grill and Ice House located in this area during fiscal year 2021. Living Spaces, a 140,000 square foot furniture showroom, also opened in 2021. In 2024, Parry’s Pizzeria and Taphouse moved in to this area and Dutch Bros opened its second Cibolo location here. Future plans for this area include development of multi-family living space and amenities.

Cibolo’s downtown area also continues to generate interest. Old store fronts and renovated historic residential homes have been converted to new businesses while keeping the look and feel of the “Old Town District”. One of the first new businesses downtown, Old Main Street Ice House, has now been in business for several years and was the catalyst in this downtown area. Advanced Solar and Electric occupies the former 1930’s gas station and still includes replicas of the original 1930s-style gas pumps. The Shops at the Mill, in the old downtown lumbermill, opened inmid-2016 with arenovatedstorefront,housesanice cream parlor and a boutique. 1908 House of Wine and Ale, Kindling Texas Kitchen, and Rooted Fork, all in renovated century-old homes, serve diners in a quaint atmosphere. Downtown also includes an event center and office space, an early childhood learning center, a bakery and a cigar shop. Nearby, along F.M. 78, Mako’s on the Creek, an upscale restaurant, voted one of the Top Ten Best New Restaurants in San Antonio, opened in 2019.

On the City’s IH-10 border, Aisin AW Co., Ltd., a leading manufacturer of automobile transmissions completed construction of a 500,000 square foot production facility in the City of Cibolo. AW Texas expanded its facility to double its size in 2023. AW Texas has brought over 1000 primary jobs to Cibolo.

In the town center, HEB developed 45 acres with approximately 110,000 square foot grocery store and 55,000 square foot E-commerce fulfillment center. The grocery store opened in early 2023 and the fulfillment center opened in mid-2024. The site also included plans for a 10 foot regional trail that will extend the City’s walk and bike system, and a fishing pond.

New retail businesses and services locating in our Town Center in 2024, include the UPS Store, Credit Human, P. Terry’s, Jersey Mike’s, Tiff’s Treats, Smoothie King and Leslie’s.

Additionally, Cibolo is experiencing growth in multi-family residential construction. A senior living community, El Sereno, was completed in 2019 along Borgfeld Road and an assisted living facility, The Brooks, was completed in 2021. Trophy Oaks, another multi-family project, constructed just south of F.M. 78 through partnership with the Cibolo Public Facility Corporation (PFC), opened in 2022. Grand at Cibolo, a multi-family project in the middle of Cibolo was completed in 2023. Most recently, US Cibolo at Cibolo Commons, a recent multi-family construction completed in 2024, boasts 12,000 square feet of resort-style amenity spaces. Future plans include Dorado at Cibolo Crossing along IH35 corridor, which is in beginning stage of development. This project is expected to stimulate further retail development along this corridor.

Taxable values. The City’s total taxable assessed valuation for fiscal year 2025 of $3.9 billion, is approximately 6% higher than the prior year. Single-family residential construction although slowing, continues to remain steady. Multifamily construction projects added $42 million in value. Overall residential properties increased by $101.7 million, or 2.5%. Continued expansion of commercial development in the City, resulted in an increase in commercial values of approximately 6%, or approximately $20.8 million. With the expansion of AW Texas facilities, industrial values increased by 43.6% or $207 million.

Tax rate. The tax rate adopted by the City Council for fiscal year 2024 is $0.4990 per $100 of assessed valuation. This rate exceeded the voter approval rate of $0.4769 per $100 of assessed valuation by 4.6% and required voter approval. The tax rate proposition was approved by the voters in November 2024 by 60% of those voting. The increase in the tax rate is related to recruitment and retention issues of public safety personnel. Historical values and tax rates are presented in the statistical section of this report.

NET CHANGE IN FUND BALANCES - GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS (3,204,348) $

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 reported as depreciation expense.

In the Statement of Activities, only the gain or loss on the disposal of a capital asset is reported, whereas in the governmental funds, the proceeds from the sale of increase financial resources. Thus, the change in net position differs in fund balance by the net book value of disposed assets (296,440)

Revenues in the Statement of Activities that do not provide current financial resources are not reported as revenues in the funds.

The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, which the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any affect on net position. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.

Governmental funds report required contributions to employee pensions as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities the cost of the pension is recorded based on the actuarially determined cost of the plan. This is the amount that actuarially determined pension expense exceeded contributions. (109,218)

Governmental funds report required contributions to OPEB as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities the cost of the expense is recorded based on the actuarially determined cost of the plan. This is the amount that actuariallydetermined OPEB expense exceeded contributions. (12,884)

Governmental funds report required contributions to OPEB - Retiree Health as expenditures. However, in the Statement of Activities the cost of the expense is recorded based on the actuarially determined cost of the plan. This is the amount that actuarially determined OPEB - Retiree Health expense exceeded contributions. 257,191

Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds:

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The City of Cibolo is a municipal corporation governed by an elected mayor and seven-member council. The financial statements of the City and its discretely precented component unit have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted account principles (GAAP) as applied to government units. The discretely presented component unit is reported in a separate column in the government-wide financial statements to emphasize that they are legally separate from the City. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financial reporting principles. The significant accounting policies of the City’s are described below:

A. Reporting Entity

Component Unit – As required by general accepted accounting principles, these financial statements present the government and its component units for which the government is considered to be financial accountable. Blended component units, although legally separate entities are in substance, part of the government’s operation, thus data from these units would be combined with data of the primary government. Each discretely presented component unit is presented as a separate column in the government-wide financial statements to emphasize it as legally separate from the government. The following is a summary of the component unit:

1. Cibolo Economic Development Corporation (CEDC) – A nonprofit Corporation organized under the Development Corporation Act of 1979, Texas Revised Civil Statutes Annotated, Article 5190.6, Section 4A for the purpose of promoting economic development within the Community in order to eliminate unemployment and underemployment and to promote and encourage employment and public welfare of, for, and on behalf of the City. It receives all proceeds from a .25$ sales tax adopted for economic development in the City of Cibolo and the City Council appoints director of the Corporation. The CEDC is a separate organization and meets the criteria of a discretely presented component unit, described above, and is presented in the governmentwide financial statements. Complete financial statement for the Cibolo Economic Development Corporation may be obtained from City Hall and are presented in the Other Supplementary Information of this reports.

2. Cibolo Public Facilities Corporation (CPFC) – A public facilities corporation organized under Chapter 303 of the Texas Local Government Code for the purpose of assisting the City in financing, refinancing, or providing public facilities. The CPFC was created to authorize the public/private sector agreement to construct a marketdriven 324-unit multifamily housing project, Trophy Oaks Apartments. The CPFC will own the land and the building and lease the use of the land and building back to the developer in a 75-year lease agreement. The CPFC will work closely with the developer of the project and monitor the progress of the project.

A. Reporting Entity (Continued)

Joint Ventures – A joint venture is a legally separate entity that results from a contractual arrangement and that is owned, operated, or governed by two or more participating governments. The following entities meet the criteria as joint ventures. Separate financial statements for these entities may be obtained at City Hall.

1. Canyon Regional Water Authority (CRWA) – was created by the Texas legislature on August 28, 1989 under Article XVI, Section 59 of the Texas Constitution. CRWA operates under Chapter 65 oftheTexasWaterCode.CRWAwascreatedtopurchase,own,hold,lease,andotherwiseacquire sources of potable water; build operate and maintain facilities for the treatment and transportation of water; sell potable water to local governments, water supply corporations and other persons in this state; and to protect, preserve, and restore the purity and sanitary condition of water in the area. CRWA may not levyor collectad valorem taxes,but does have the power ofeminent domain and may issue bonds. CRWA is comprised of eleven (11) member entities, and the governing board consists of two voting members from each entity. The member entities consist of City of Cibolo, City of Converse, City of La Vernia, City of Marion, County Line Special Utility District, Crystal Clear Special Utility District, East Central Special Utility District, Green Valley Special Utility District, Martindale Water Supply Corporation, Maxwell Special Utility District, and Springs Hill Special Utility District.

2. Cibolo Valley Local Government Corporation – is a public, nonprofit corporation organized July 28, 2011 to aid, assist, and act on behalf of the cities of Cibolo and Schertz in acquiring, constructing, maintaining, and operating a water utility system. The participating governments have an ongoing financial responsibility to fund the operation of the corporation through either purchase of services or by subsidizing the operations.

B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements

The government-wide financial statements include the statement of net position and statement of activities. Government-wide statements report information on all of the activities of the City. The effect of interfund transfers has been removed from the government-wide statements but continues to be reflected on the fund statements. The values of interfund services provided and used are not eliminated in the government-wide financial statements, as elimination of those charges would distort the direct costs reported for the various functions. Governmental activities are supported mainly by taxes and intergovernmental revenues. Business-type activities are financed whole or in part by fees charged to external parties for goods and services. The City has no fiduciary funds.

The statement of activities reflects the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses of a given function or segment are offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identifiable with a specific function. 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 and (2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included in program revenues are reported as general revenues.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

B. Government-Wide and Fund Financial Statements (Continued)

Separate fund financial statementsare provided for governmental funds and proprietary funds. The general fund and capital projects fund meet the criteria as major governmental funds. The combined amounts for all nonmajor funds are reflected in a single column in the fund balance sheet and statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances. Detailed statements for nonmajor funds are presented within combining and individual fund statements and schedules.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. This measurement focus is also used for the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash revenue types, which have been accrued, revenue from the investments, intergovernmental revenue and charges for services. Grants are recognized as revenue when all applicable eligibility requirements imposed by the provider are met.

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation

The government-wide financial statements are reported using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. This measurement focus is also used for the proprietary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash revenue types, which have been accrued, revenue from the investments, intergovernmental revenue and charges for services. Grants are recognized as revenue when all applicable eligibility requirements imposed by the provider are met.

Revenues are classified as program revenues and general revenues. Program revenues include (1) charges to customers or applicants for goods, services, or privileges provided, (2) operating grants and contributions, and (3) capital grants and contributions. General revenues include all taxes, grants not restricted to specific programs and investment earnings.

Governmental fund level financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. Measurable and available revenues include revenues expected to be received within 60 days after the fiscal year ends. Receivables which are measurable but not collectible within 60 days after the end of the fiscal period are reported as deferred inflow of resources. Property taxes which are levied prior to September 30, 2023, and became due October 1, 2023 have been assessed to finance the budget of the fiscal year beginning October 1, 2023 and, accordingly, have been reflected as deferred inflow of resources and taxes receivable in the fund financial statement at September 30, 2024.

Salestaxes,franchisetaxes,hotel/moteltaxes,andfeesassociatedwiththecurrentfiscalyearareconsidered to be susceptible to accrual and so have been recognized as revenue in the current fiscal period. All other revenue items received by the government are considered to be measurable and available only when the cash is received by the City.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

C. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting, and Financial Statement Presentation (Continued)

Expenditures generally are recorded when a fund liability is incurred; however, debt service expenditures, as well as expendituresrelated to compensated absences and claims andjudgments,are recorded only when the liability has matured and payment is due.

The government reports the following major governmental funds:

General Fund is the general operating fund of the City and is always classified as a major fund. The general fund is used to account for all financial resources except those required to be accounted for in another fund. Major revenue sources include property taxes, charges for services, intergovernmental revenues and investment of idle funds. Primary expenditures are for general administration, public safety, public service and capital acquisition.

Grant Fund accounts for major grant projects and their associated revenues and expenditures.

Traffic Impact Fund accounts for traffic impact fees and the associate expenditures related to the impact that development and construction have on the roadways and transportation routes within the City.

Capital Projects Fund accounts for financial resources used and expended for the procurement and construction of long lived assets.

Debt Service Fund accounts for financial resources to be used for the payment of long term debt.

Nonmajor governmental funds include special revenue and capital project funds.

Proprietary fund level financial statements are used to account for activities, which are similar to those found in the privatesector. Themeasurement focus is upon determinationofnet income, financial position and cash flows. The City’s proprietary funds are as follow:

Water &Sewer Fund accountsfor the water,sewer, and garbageservices provided tothe citizensthrough user charges.

Drainage Fund accounts for the maintenance of drainage infrastructure of the City through user charges.

The proprietary fund is accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting as follows:

• Revenues are recognized when earned, and expenses are recognized when liabilities are incurred.

• Current-year contributions, administrative expenses and benefit payments, which are not received or paid until the subsequent year, are accrued.

Proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund’s principal ongoing operations.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents

For purposes ofthestatement of cashflows, the enterprisefund (water and sewer fund) considers all highly liquid investments including cash in banks, cash on hand, and money market accounts to be cash equivalents.

E. Investments

State statutes authorize the City to invest in (a) obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities; (b) direct obligations of the State of Texas or its agencies; (c) other obligations, the principalandinterestofwhichareunconditionallyguaranteedorinsuredbytheStateofTexasortheUnited States; (d) obligations of states, agencies, counties, cities, and other political subdivisions of any state having been rated as to investment quality by a nationally recognized investment rating firm and having received a rating of not less than A or its equivalent; (e) certificates of deposit by state and national banks domiciled in this state that are (i) guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, or its successor; or, (ii) secured by obligations that are described by (a) - (d). Statutes allow investing in local government investment pools organized and rated in accordance with the Interlocal Cooperation Act, whose assets consist exclusively of the obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities and repurchase assessments involving those same obligations.

Investments are stated at fair value (plus accrued interest) except for money market investments and participating interest-earning investment contracts (U.S, Treasuries) that have a remaining maturity at time of purchase of one year or less. Those investments are stated at amortized cost. Likewise, certificates of deposit are stated at amortized cost.

F. Receivables

Property taxes are levied based on taxable value at January 1 prior to September 30 and become due October 1, 2023 and past due after January 31, 2024 Accordingly, receivables and revenues for property taxes are reflected on the government-wide statement based on the full accrual method of accounting.

Accounts receivable from other governments include amounts due from grantors for approved grants for specific programs and reimbursements for services performed by the City. Program grants are recorded as receivables and revenues at the time all eligibility requirements established by the provider have been met.

Reimbursements for services performed are recorded as receivables and revenues when they are earned in the government-wide statements. Included are fines and costs assessed by the court action and billable services for certain contracts. Revenues received in advance of the costs being incurred are recorded as deferred inflows of resources in the fund statements. Receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectibles.

G. Short-Term Inter-fund Receivables/Payables

Duringthe course of operations, numerous transactions occur between individual funds for goods provided or services rendered. These receivables and payables are classified as “due from other funds" or “due to other funds” on fund statements. Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as “internal balances”.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

H. Inventories and Prepaid Items

The City accounts for inventories using the consumption method. Inventories consist primarily of supplies and are valued at cost determined by the average cost method. Certain payments to vendors reflect costs applicable to future accounting periods and are recorded as prepaid items in both government-wide and fund financial statements. Prepaid Items of governmental funds are recorded as expenditures when consumed rather than when purchased.

I. Budget

An operating budget is adopted each fiscal year for all City governmental funds. The budget is adopted on the GAAP basis of accounting.

J. Restricted Assets

Certain enterprise fund revenues are collected for a specific purpose by state law and city ordinances such as impact fees for infrastructure improvements and the purchase of future water rights. These funds are classified as restricted assets on the statement of net position and balance sheet because their use is limited by law.

Deposits of water/sewer customers and performance bond deposits pending refund to the customer are considered restricted assets.

K. Capital Assets

Capital assets, which include land, buildings and improvements, equipment, and infrastructure assets are reported in the applicable governmental or business type activities column in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets such as equipment are defined as assets with a cost of $5,000 or more. Infrastructure assets include city-owned streets, sidewalks, curbs and bridges. Capital assets are recorded at historical costs if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets, donated works of art and capital assets received in a service concession arrangement are recorded at estimated acquisition value at the date of donation.

The cost of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets lives are not capitalized. Interest has not been capitalized during the construction period on property plant and equipment.

Capital assets are depreciated using the straight-line method over the following estimated useful lives:

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

L. Compensated Absences

Vested or accumulated vacation leave and compensatory time that is expected to be liquidated with expendable available resources is reported as an expenditure and fund liability of the governmental fund that will pay for it. The City is responsible for payment of vested or accumulated vacation leave and compensatory time. Amounts of vested or accumulated vacation leave and compensatory time that are not expected to be liquidated with expendable available financial resources are reported in the government wide statements. Vested or accumulated vacation leave and compensatory time of the enterprise fund is recorded as an expense and liability of that fund as the benefits accrue to employees. Accumulated vacation pay and compensatory time at September 30, 2024 of $991,850 and $135,286 have been recorded in accrued liabilities of the government-wide statements and enterprise fund, respectively. Compensated absences are reportedin the governmental funds only if they have matured (i.e., unused reimbursable leave outstanding following an employee’s resignation or retirement). The general fund is the governmental fund that has typically been used in prior years to liquidate the liability for compensated absences.

M. Deferred Inflows/Outflows of Resources

In addition to assets, the statement of financial position will sometimes report 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 future period(s) and so will not be recognized as an outflow of resources (expense/expenditure) until then. The City currently has pension and OPEB related deferred outflows of resources.

Deferred inflows of resources represent an acquisition of net assets that applies to a future period and so will not be recognized as an inflow of resource (revenue) until that time. Unavailable revenue is reported only in the governmental funds balance sheet under a modified basis of accounting. Unavailable revenues from property tax are deferred and recognized as an inflow of resources in the period the amounts become available. The City also has OPEB related deferred inflows.

N. Pensions

For purposes of measuring the net pension liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions, and pension expense, information about the Fiduciary Net Position of the Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) and additions to/deduction fromTMRS’s Fiduciary Net Position have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by TMRS. For this purpose, plan contributions are recognized in the period that compensation is reported for the employee, which is when contributions are legally due. Benefit payments and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. Investments are reported at fair value. The general fund has typically been used in prior years to liquidate pension liabilities.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

O. OPEB Liability

For purposes of measuring the OPEB liability, deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resourcesrelatedtopensions,andOPEBexpense,informationabouttheTotalOPEBLiabilityoftheTexas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS) and additions to/deduction from TMRS’s Total OPEB Liability have been determined on the same basis as they are reported by TMRS. For this purpose, plan contributions are recognized in the period that compensation is reported for the employee, which is when contributions are legally due. Benefit payments and refunds are recognized when due and payable in accordance with the benefit terms. The general fund has typically been used in the prior year to liquidate OPEB liabilities.

P. Long-Term Obligations

Debt is defined as a liability that arises from a contractual obligation to pay cash (or other assets that may be used in lieu of cash) in one or more payments to settle an amount that is fixed at the date the contractual obligation is established. For this purpose, debt does not include leases, except for contracts reported as a financed purchase of the underlying asset, or accounts payable. In the current year, the City adopted a new GASB standard that establishes new note disclosure requirements for long-term debt, including direct borrowings and placement. See additional detail in Note 6.

In the government-wide financial statements, long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities under governmental activities or proprietary fund type statement of net position. On new bond issues, bond premiumand discounts are deferred and amortized over thelife of theterm of the related debt.

In the fund financial statements, governmental fund types recognize bond premiums and discounts during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received on debt issuances are reported as other financing sources while discounts on debt issuances are reported as other financing uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as debt service expenditures.

Q. Net Position

Net Position represents the difference between assets and liabilities. Net investment in capital assets consists of capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balances of any borrowing used for the acquisition, construction or improvements of those assets, and adding back unspent proceeds. Net position is reported as restricted when there are limitations imposed on their use either through the enabling legislation adopted by the City or through external restrictions imposed by creditors, grantors, or laws or regulations of other governments. The City has elected to appropriate net position of its business type activity. Such appropriations reflect the intended use of the net position.

R. Fund Balance Classification Policies

The City adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement Number 54 (GASB 54) Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions. The statement provides guidance for fund balance categories and classifications and governmental fund type definitions. GASB 54 changed the way we look at fund balances, specifically reporting what fund balances, by major governmental fund type, are or are not available for public purposes.

NOTE 1 -- SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

R. Fund Balance Classification Policies (Continued)

Five categories of fund balances were created and defined by GASB 54. These five categories are as follows:

• Restricted – These funds are governed by externally enforceable restrictions.

• Non-spendable – These funds are not available for expenditures based on legal or contractual requirements. An example might be inventories and prepaid expenditures.

• Committed - Fund balances in this category are limited by the government’s highest level of decision making (in this case the City Council). Any changes of this designation must be done in the same manner that it was implemented. For example, if funds are committed by resolution, the commitment could only be released with another resolution.

• Assigned – For funds to be assigned, there must be an intended use which can be established by the City Council or an official delegated by the Council, such as a City Manager or Finance Director. Assigned fund balance is delegated by the City Council to the City Manager.

• Unassigned - This classification is the default for all funds that do not fit into the other categories. The general fund is the only fund that reports a positive fund balance amount. However, in governmental funds other than the general fund, if expenditures incurred for a specific purposes, it may be necessary to report a negative unassigned fund balance in that particular fund.

Restricted amounts are considered to have been spent when an expenditure is incurred for purposes for which both restricted and unrestricted fund balances are available. The City’s policy is to apply expenditures against non-spendable fund balance, restricted fund balance, committed fund balance, assigned fund balance and unassigned fund balance at the end of the fiscal year.

S. Inter-fund Transactions

Legally authorized transfers are treated as inter-fund transfers and are included in the results of operations of both governmental and proprietary funds.

T. Operating Revenues and Expenses

Operating revenues are those revenues that are generated directly from the primary activity of the enterprise. For the City, those revenues are charges for water and sewer services. Operating expenses are necessary costs incurred to provide the service that is the primary activity. Revenues and expenses not meeting these definitions are reported as non-operating.

U. Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS

A. Cash

At September 30, 2024, the City's cash was fully collateralized.

B. Investments

The City is required by Government Code Chapter 2256, The Public Funds Investment Act, to adopt, implement, and publicize an investment policy. That policy must address the following areas: (1) safety ofprincipalandliquidity,(2)portfoliodiversification,(3)allowableinvestments,(4)acceptablerisklevels, (5)expectedratesofreturn,(6)maximumallowablestatedmaturityofportfolioinvestments,(7)maximum average dollar-weighted maturity allowed based on the stated maturity date of the portfolio, (8) investment staff quality and capabilities, and (9) bid solicitation preferences for certificates of deposits.

The Act determines the types of investments which are allowable for the City. These include, with certain restrictions, (1) obligations of the U.S. Treasury, U.S. agencies, and the State of Texas, (2) certificates of deposit, (3) certain municipal securities, (4) securities lending program, (5) repurchase agreements, (6) bankers acceptances, (7) mutual funds, (8) investments pools, (9) guaranteed investment contracts, and (10) commercial paper.

The City’s investments at September 30, 2024 are as shown below:

Quoted Prices in Significant Significant Active Markets for Observable Unobservable

Fair Value Measurement is measured by the City using the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. The hierarchy is based on the valuation inputs used to measure the fair value of the asset. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in the active markets for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observableinputs; Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. All of the City's investments carried at fair value are valued using quoted markets prices (Level 1 inputs).

NOTE 2 CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS (CONTINUED)

C. Analysis of Specific Deposit and Investment Risks

GASB Statement No. 40 requires a determination as to whether the City was exposed to the following specific investment risks at year end and if so, the reporting of certain related disclosures:

Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that an issuer or other counterparty to an investment will not fulfill its obligations. The ratings of securities by nationally recognized rating agencies are designed to give an indication of credit risk. City investment policy follows state guidelines. The City policy allows investments in certificates of deposit with banks in Texas, investments in U.S. Treasuries and Agencies, and investment pools that invest in obligations of the United States or its agencies and instrumentalities to name a few.

At September 30, 2024, the City's investments were in TexPool and TexCLASS, public funds investment pools where all securities held maintain a continuous rating of no lower than AAA or AAAm or an equivalent rating by at least one nationally recognized rating service.

Custodial Credit Risk. Deposits are exposed to custodial credit risk if they are not covered by depository insurance andthe deposits are uncollateralized,collateralized with securities held by the pledgingfinancial institution, or collateralized with securities held by the pledging financial institution’s trust department or agent but not in the City’s name.

At year end and per City policy all funds were in the City's name and collateralized with securities that maintain a continuous rating of no lower than AAA or AAA-m or an equivalent rating by at least one nationally recognized rating service. The City was not exposed to custodial credit risk.

Concentration of Credit Risk. This risk is the risk of loss attributed to the magnitude of a government’s investment in a single issuer. All City funds are in the external investment pool as allowed by the City’s investment policy, and the investment pool invests in hundreds of authorized securities that minimize concentrations of credit risk. At year end, the City was not exposed to concentration of credit risk.

Interest Rate Risk. This is the risk that changes in interest rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. At year end, the City was not exposed to interest rate risk due to investment in an external investment pool as authorized by the City’s investment policy.

Foreign Currency Risk. This is the risk that exchange rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. The City’s policy does not allow investment in foreign currency. At year end the City was not exposed to foreign currency risk.

NOTE 2 -- CASH, CASH EQUIVALENTS AND INVESTMENTS (Continued)

D. Investment Policy

The City’s general policy is to report money market investments and short-term participating interestearning investment contracts as amortized cost and to report nonparticipating interest-earning investment contracts using a cost-based measure. However, if the fair value of an investment is significantly affected by the impairment of the credit standing of the issuer or by other factors, it is reported at fair value. All other investments are reported at fair value unless a legal contract exists which guarantees a higher value. The term “short-term” refers to investments which have a remaining term of one year or less at time of purchase. The term “nonparticipating” means that the investment’s value does not vary with market interest rate changes. Nonnegotiable certificates of deposit are examples of nonparticipating interestearning investment contracts.

E. Public Funds Investment Pools

Public funds investment pools in Texas are established under the authority of the Interlocal Cooperation Act, Chapter 791 of the Texas Government Code, and are subject to the provisions of the Public Funds Investment Act, Chapter 2256 of the Texas Government Code.

In addition to other provisions of the Act designed to promote liquidity and safety of principal, the Act requires pools to: (1) have an advisory board composed of participants in the pool and other persons who do not have a business relationship with the pool and are qualified to advise the pool; (2) maintain a continuous rating of no lower than AAA or AAA-m or an equivalent rating by at least one nationally recognized rating service; and (3) maintain the market value of its underlying investment portfolio within one half of one percent of the value of its shares.

NOTE 3 RECEIVABLES

Receivables consist of the following as of September 30, 2024:

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

NOTE 4 PROPERTY TAX CALENDAR

The City’s property tax is levied and becomes collectible each October 1 based on the assessed values listed as of prior January 1, which is the date a lien attaches to all taxable property in the City. Assessed values are established by the Guadalupe County Appraisal District at 100% of estimated market value. Assessed values are reduced by lawful exemptions to arrive at taxable values. A revaluation of all property is required to be completed every four (4) years. The total taxable value as of January 1, 2023, upon which the fiscal 2024 levy was based, was $3,220,913,019 (market value less exemptions).

The City is permitted by the Constitution of the State of Texas to levy taxes up to $2.50 per $100 of taxable assessed valuation for all governmental purposes. Pursuant to a decision of the Attorney General of the State of Texas, up to $1.50 per $100 of assessed valuation may be used for the payment of long-term debt. The combined tax rate to finance general governmental services, including the payment of principal and interest on long-term debt, for the year ended September 30, 2024 was $0.4699 per $100 of assessed value, which means that the City has a tax margin of $2.0301 for each $100 value.

Property taxes are recorded as receivables and deferred inflows of resources at the time the taxes are assessed. In governmental funds, revenues are recognized as the related ad valorem taxes are collected. Additional amounts estimated to be collectible in the time to be a resource for payment of obligations incurred during the fiscal year and therefore susceptible to accrual in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been recognized as revenue. In the government wide financial statements, the entire levy is recognized as revenue, net of estimated uncollectible amounts (if any), at the levy date.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN

Texas Municipal Retirement System

A. Plan Description

The City participates as one of 928 plans in the nontraditional, joint contributory, hybrid defined benefit pension plan administered by the Texas Municipal Retirement System (TMRS). TMRS is an agency created by the State of Texas and administered in accordance with the TMRS Act, Subtitle G, Title 8, Texas Government Code (the TMRS Act) as an agent multiple-employer retirement system for municipal employees in the State of Texas. The TMRS Act places the general administration and management of the System with a six-member Board of Trustees. Although the Governor, with the advice and consent of the Senate, appointsthe Board,TMRS is notfiscallydependent on the State of Texas. TMRS's defined benefit pension plan is a tax-qualified plan under Section 401 (a) of the Internal Revenue Code. TMRS issues a publicly available Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) that can be obtained at www.tmrs.com.

All eligible employees of the City are required to participate in TMRS.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN (Continued)

Texas Municipal Retirement System (Continued)

B. Benefits Provided

TMRS provides retirement, disability, and death benefits. Benefit provisions are adopted by the governing body of the City, within the options available in the state statutes governing TMRS.

At retirement, the benefit is calculated as if the sum of the employee’s contributions, with interest, and the City-financed monetary credits with interest were used to purchase an annuity. Members may choose to receive their retirement benefit in one of seven payments options. Members may also choose to receive a portion of their benefit as a Partial Lump Sum Distribution in an amount equal to 12, 24, or 36 monthly payments, which cannot exceed 75% of the member's deposits and interest.

At the December 31, 2023 valuation and measurement date, the following employees were covered by the benefit terms:

C. Contributions

The contribution rates for employees in TMRS are either 5%, 6%, or 7% of employee gross earnings, and the City matching percentages are either 100%, 150%, or 200%, both as adopted by the governing body ofthe City. Underthe statelaw governing TMRS,thecontribution rate foreach city is determined annually by the actuary, using the Entry Age Normal (EAN) actuarial cost method. The actuarially determined rate is the estimated amount necessary to finance the cost of benefits earned by employees during the year, with an additional amount to finance any unfunded accrued liability

Employees for the City were required to contribute 7% of their annual gross earnings during calendar year 2023. The contribution rates for the City were 11.56% and 12.75% for calendar years 2023 and 2024 respectively. The City's contributions to TMRS for the year ended September 30, 2024 were $1,591,809 and were equal to the required contributions.

D. Net Pension Liability

The City’s Net Pension Liability (NPL) was measured as of December 31, 2023, and the Total Pension Liability (TPL) used to calculate the Net Pension Liability was determined by an actuarial valuation as of that date.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN (Continued)

Texas Municipal Retirement System (Continued)

E. Actuarial Assumptions

The Total Pension Liability in the December 31, 2023 actuarial valuation was determined using the following actuarial assumptions:

Inflation 2.5% per year

Overall Payroll Growth 2.75% per year

Investment Rate of Return 6.75%, net of pension plan investment expense, including inflation

Salary increases were based on a service-related table. Mortality rates for active members are based on the PUB(10) mortality tables with the Public Safety table used for males and the General Employee table used for females. Mortality rates for healthy retirees and beneficiaries are based on the Gender-distinct 2019 Municipal Retirees of Texas mortality tables. The rates for actives, healthy retirees and beneficiaries are projected on a fully generational basis by Scale MP-2021 to account for future mortality improvements. For disabled annuitants, the same mortality tables for healthy retirees is used with a 4-year set-forward for males and a 3-year set-forward for females. In addition, a 3.5% and 3.0% minimum mortality rate is applied, for males and females respectively, to reflect the impairment for younger members who become disabled. The rates are projected on a fully generational basis by Scale MP-2021 to account for future mortality improvements subject to the floor.

The actuarial assumptions were developed primarily from the actuarial investigation of the experience of TMRS over the period ending December 31, 2022 They were adopted in 2023 and first used in the December 31, 2023 actuarial valuation. The post-retirement mortality assumption for Annuity Purchase Rates (APRs) is based on the Mortality Experience Investigation Study covering 2009 through 2011 and dated December 31, 2013. Plan assets are managed on a total return basis with an emphasis on both capital appreciation as well as the production of income in order to satisfy the short-term and long-term funding needs of TMRS.

The long-term expected rate of return on pension plan investments was determined using a building-block method in which best estimate ranges of expected future real rates of return (expected returns, net of pension plan investment expense and inflation) are developed for each major asset class. These ranges are combined to produce the long-term expected rate of return by weighting the expected future real rates of return by the target asset allocation percentage and by adding expected inflation. In determining their best estimate of a recommended investment return assumption under the various alternative asset allocation portfolios, GRS focused on the area between (1) arithmetic mean (aggressive) without an adjustment for time (conservative) and (2) the geometric mean (conservative) with an adjustment for time (aggressive).

The target allocation and best estimates of real rates of return for each major asset class are summarized in the following table:

F. Discount Rate

The discount rate used to measure the Total Pension Liability was 6.75%. The projection of cash flows used to determine the discount rate assumed that employee and employer contributions will be made at the ratesspecifiedinstatute.Basedonthatassumption,thepensionplan'sFiduciaryNetPositionwasprojected to be available to make all projected future benefit payments of current active and inactive employees.

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 reported as depreciation expense.

Depreciation Expense (4,500)

The issuance of long-term debt (e.g. bonds, leases) provides current financial resources to governmental funds, which the repayment of the principal of long-term debt consumes the current financial resources of governmental funds. Neither transaction, however, has any affect on net position. This amount is the net effect of these differences in the treatment of long-term debt and related items.

Principal Repayments

247,000

Some expenses reported in the Statement of Activities do not require the use of current financial resources and, therefore, are not reported as expenditures in governmental funds: Accrued Interest (11,537)

REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT

To the City Council and management City of Cibolo

We have audited, 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, the financial statementsof the governmental activities, the businesstype activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of City of Cibolo as of and for the year ended September 30, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise City of Cibolo’sbasicfinancial statements, and have issued ourreportthereon datedMarch 26, 2025

Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered City of Cibolo’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Cibolo’s internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of City of Cibolo’s internal control.

A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the 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 material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.

Report on Compliance and Other Matters

As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether City of Cibolo’s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

We noted certain other matters that have been reported to management in a separate letter dated March 26, 2025.

Purpose of this Report

The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.
