Dear Chicagoans:

Thank you for your interest in the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the City of Chicago for the 2014 fiscal year.

In 2014, the City of Chicago took vital steps to continue putting our fiscal house in order. We have reduced our structural deficit for the fourth consecutive year by making city government smaller, smarter and simpler and we have coupled necessary reforms with improved services so city government works better for all Chicago residents.

The best way for us to continue to grow the City's economy is to intensify our efforts to right the city's financial ship. By following a deliberate reform and invest strategy, we have begun the work of ending unsustainable financial practices while continuing to invest in critical areas of education, transportation, and job creation. The products of our work have served to enhance Chicago's position as the consummate place to live, work, and raise a family.

The City made significant progress in 2014, and we will continue our efforts to strengthen Chicago's future by reforming the way city government works, investing in our communities, and maintaining a high level of city services for our residents, all in a fiscally responsible way.

Sincerely,

CITY OF CHICAGO THE CITY COUNCIL RAHM EMANUEL, Mayor

Department of Finance city of chicago


June 30, 2015


To the Honorable Mayor Rahm Emanuel, Members of the City Council, and Citizens of the City of Chicago:
We are pleased to submit the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) of the City of Chicago for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. State law requires that all governmental units publish, within six months of the close of each fiscal year, financial statements presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and audited by a licensed public accountant
Responsibility for both the accuracy of the data and completeness and fairness of the presentation, including all disclosures, rests with management. The purpose of the CAFR is to provide complete and accurate financial information which complies with the reporting requirements of the Municipal Code of Chicago (Code). The City's financial management is responsible for establishing and maintaining an internal control structure designed to ensure that the assets of the government are protected from loss, theft or misuse and to ensure that adequate accounting data is compiled to allow for the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP.
The internal control structure is designed to provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that these objectives are met. The concept of reasonable assurance recognizes that the cost of control should not exceed the benefits likely to be derived and that the valuation of costs and benefits requires estimates and judgments by management.
The Code also requires that the City's basic financial statements are audited by independent certified public accountants selected by the Committee on Finance of the City Council. This requirement has been met, and the unmodified audit opinion rendered by Deloitte & Touche LLP is included in the financial section of this report The audit was conducted as a subcontractor arrangement between Deloitte & Touche LLP and a consortium of Chicago-based minority and women-owned certified public accounting firms.
In addition to meeting the requirements set forth in the Code, an additional audit designed to meet the requirements of the federal Single Audit Act Amendment of 1996 and related OMB Circular A-133, Audits of State and Local Governments is performed annually.
GAAP requires that management provide a narrative introduction, overview and analysis to accompany the basic financial statements in the form of a Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A). This letter of transmittal is designed to complement the MD&A and should be read in conjunction with it. The City's MD&A can be found immediately following the report of the independent auditors.

i
Profile of the Government. The City of Chicago, incorporated in 1837, currently occupies a land area of approximately 228 square miles and, according to the 2010 census, serves a population of greater than 2.6 million. The City is a "home rule" unit of local government under Illinois law and is governed by an elected mayor and city council. The Mayor, the Chief Executive Officer of the City, is elected by general election. The City Council, the City's legislative body consists of 50 members, each representing one of the City's 50 wards. The members of the City Council are elected through popular vote by ward for four-year terms.
The City provides public safety, street maintenance and sanitation, transportation infrastructure, water, sewer, health, cultural, aviation and human services. City employees are covered by one of four pension plans that are responsible for providing certain pension benefits and that receive funding from the City. These four plans include the Municipal Employees' Annuity and Benefit Fund, Laborers' and Retirement Board Employees' Annuity and Benefit Fund, Policemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund and Firemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund. These component units are included in the City's reporting entity. Additional services are provided to residents by the Chicago Public Schools, Chicago Park District, Chicago Transit Authority, City Colleges of Chicago and the Chicago Housing Authority. However, these component units are not included in the City's reporting entity.
Annual budgets are adopted for all of the City's funds, including the general fund and certain special revenue funds. Prior to October 15, the Mayor submits a proposed budget of expenditures and the means of financing them to the City Council for the next year. The City Council is required to hold at least one public hearing regarding the proposed budget, and the budget recommendation must be made available for public inspection at least ten days prior to the passage of the annual appropriation ordinance which must be enacted no later than December 31. Additional information on the budgetary process can be found in Note 3 in the notes to financial statements.
Local Economy. Chicago continues to enjoy one of the most diverse economies in the nation, with no single sector employing more than 14 percent of the City's workforce. This diversity provides fiscal stability from mature industries in business and financial services, manufacturing, transportation and warehousing, education and healthcare, and enables the City to promote the growth of emerging industries in technology, tourism, biotech and life sciences. More than 400 major corporate headquarters are in the Chicago metropolitan area, including 31 in the Fortune 500. Long-standing components of the local economy, such as derivatives trading, remain strong -Chicago accounts for nearly one quarter (22%) of the world's global derivatives trading market; double that of New York (11%) and more than all of the exchanges in Europe combined (20%). Meanwhile, new sectors continuously emerge with an average of 275 new digital startups launching each year since 2011. A record high amount of venture capital - $1.6 billion - was invested in Chicago startups in 2014 and $8 billion in acquisitions and IPOs were completed in 2014.
Chicago has long been a center for international business and is currently home to over 1,800 foreign-based companies in the metropolitan area with over $100 billion in foreign direct investment. In 2014, Chicago was recognized as a top 5 Global Destination City for business. Chicago-based companies, in turn, have a strong international presence, with over 8,000 locations across more than 170 countries and territories.
Business investment and expansion in Chicago continue to grow. Throughout 2014, monthly employment grew and unemployment declined in Chicago, as business expansions across Chicago led to approximately 20,000 new and retained jobs. In fact, more than 600 major business expansions (representing $6.8 billion in economic development) were announced, commenced, or completed throughout the metropolitan area in 2014, helping Chicago earn the "Top Metro" ranking in the U.S. for the second year in a row. Companies such as Coyote Logistics, Meade Electric, and PECO Pallet expanded in Chicago, helping to bring nearly $3.0 billion in new investment to the City in 2014.

In addition, Chicago continues to be a destination for both business and leisure travelers, drawn by the City's numerous cultural and recreational attractions, professional sports teams, festivals, museums, parks, restaurants and more. Tourism, business and convention travel to Chicago reached record levels in 2014, with over 50 million visitors to the City, an increase of 6.8% over 2013. This activity continues to be a significant part of the local economy, helping to strengthen small businesses and provide jobs.
Financial Planning and Policies. Each year, the City of Chicago completes an Annual Financial Analysis based on the critical understanding that to protect the health and safety of all Chicagoans, strengthen communities and neighborhoods, maintain infrastructure and public spaces, and foster a vibrant local economy, it must take an informed and long-term approach to financial planning. The Annual Financial Analysis, which is available on the City's website, provides a review of the City's revenues and expenditures over the past 10 years, a forecast of the City's finances for the next three years, and analyses of its reserves, pensions, debt obligations, and capital improvement program.
The City bases its annual budget on an assessment of the available resources for that year and an understanding ofthe City's service priorities, adopting a balanced budget each year in accordance with the Illinois Municipal Code. As part of the annual budget process, the City evaluates each department's direct and indirect costs in order to accurately assess expenses across City government and strives to maintain a diversified revenue system that is responsive to the changing economy and designed to protect the City from short-term fluctuations in any individual revenue source. The City's financial policies are intended to secure the City's fiscal integrity and health, encourage equitable allocation of costs and resources, identify potential financial risks and options to mitigate them, maximize economic efficiency, and allow sufficient flexibility to consider new fiscal and budgetary strategies.
2014 Budget and Major Initiatives. In 2014, the City built on the structural reforms and efficiencies put into place in previous budgets; made significant investments in the health, safety, and education of the children of Chicago; encouraged job creation and economic development; and continued to improve and increase City services. The City saved funds by instituting healthcare plan changes, reducing the amount of leased office space, and fully transitioning to a grid system for garbage collection. The City continued to invest in infrastructure, replaced 85 miles of water mains and 21 miles of sewer mains and lined 55 miles of sewers and 14,000 structures, including manholes and catch basins. Additionally, 15,000 meters were installed as part of the MeterSave program and construction continued on major pumping station improvements. The City provided funding to improve the transit system with the construction of the Loop Link Bus Rapid Transit route and improvements to the Roosevelt Road Intermodal Transfer Station, the Your New Blue - Blue Line Modernization, and the 18th Street connector. Additionally, the City provided funding to help families, with a pilot program to pay out the Earned Income Tax Credit in advanced quarterly payments and an investment in Family Net Centers, which are neighborhood technology training centers open to all residents. Finally, the 2014 Budget made key investments in programs for children, including expanding after school opportunities, summer jobs, digital training at libraries, and vision programs for Chicago Public School students.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT, MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
AND
THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Deloitte

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Honorable Rahm Emanuel, Mayor And Members of the City Council City of Chicago, Illinois
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements ofthe governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Chicago, Illinois (the "City"), as of and for the year ended December 31, 2014, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements as listed in the table of contents.
Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Auditor's Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements based on our audit. We did not audit the financial statements of the City's Pension Plans (the "Plans") which, in aggregate, represent substantially all the assets and revenues ofthe fiduciary funds, included in the aggregate remaining fund information. Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for the Plans, is based solely on the reports ofthe other auditors. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment ofthe risks of material misstatement ofthe financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation ofthe financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness ofthe entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinions.

Opinions
In our opinion, based on our audit and the reports of other auditors, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position ofthe governmental activities, the business-type activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Chicago, Illinois, as of December 31, 2014, and the respective changes in financial position and, where applicable, cash flows thereof and the respective budgetary comparison for the General Fund for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Other Matters
Required Supplementary Information
Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the Management's Discussion and Analysis and Schedule of Other Postemployment Benefits Funding Progress, as listed in the table of contents, be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part ofthe 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 and other auditors have applied certain limited procedures to the required supplementary information in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which consisted of inquiries of management about the methods of preparing the information and comparing the information for consistency with management's responses to our inquiries, the basic financial statements, and other knowledge we obtained during our audit of the basic financial statements. We do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the information because the limited procedures do not provide us with sufficient evidence to express an opinion or provide any assurance.
Other Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the City's basic financial statements. The Combining Fund Statements, Individual Fund Statements, introductory section and statistical section are presented for the purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part ofthe basic financial statements.
The Combining and Individual Fund 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 ofthe 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 by us and other auditors. In our opinion, based on our audit, the procedures performed as described above, and the reports ofthe other auditors, the Combining and Individual Fund Statements are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements as a whole.

Chicago. Illinois
June 30,2015
The introductory section and the statistical section have not been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit ofthe basic financial statements, and accordingly, we do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on them.

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Management's Discussion and Analysis
As management of the City of Chicago, Illinois (City) we offer readers of the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) this narrative overview and analysis of the financial activities of the City for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014. We encourage the readers to consider the information presented here in conjunction with information that we have furnished in our letter of transmittal, contained within this report.
2014 Financial Highlights
Liabilities and Deferred Inflows of the City, in the government-wide financial statements, exceeded its assets and deferred outflows at the close of the most recent fiscal year by $6,536.3 million (net deficit). The net deficit is composed of $2,742.5 million in net investment in capital assets and $2,471.0 million in net position restricted for specific purposes offset by an unrestricted deficit of $11,749.8 million. The net deficit increased in 2014 by $1,165.2 million primarily as of result of increased pension costs.
The City's total assets increased by $1,347.4 million. The increase primarily relates to a $897.8 million increase in capital assets as a result of the City's capital improvement program, and an increase in cash and cash equivalents and investments of $548.0 million, primarily as a result of an increase in charges for services, improved collection of receivables, and proceeds from financing to fund capital projects.
Revenues and Other Financing Sources, in the fund financial statements, available for general governmental operations during 2014 were $6,769.4 million, an increase of $806.9 million (13.5 percent) from 2013, primarily due to the issuance of General Obligation and Motor Fuel tax bonds.
The General Fund ended 2014 with a total Fund Balance of $141.3 million, of which $51.6 million was Unassigned. Total Fund Balance decreased from 2013 primarily because Revenues and Other Financing Sources were less than Expenditures and Other Financing Uses by $25.5 million.
The City's general obligation bonds and notes outstanding increased by $605.3 million during the current fiscal year. The proceeds from the issuance of General Obligation were used to finance the City's capital plan and certain operating expenses.
The General Fund expenditures on a budgetary basis were $28.9 million less than budgeted as a result of favorable variances in general government expenditures, offset by unfavorable variances in public safety primarily as a result of higher than expected personnel related expenses.
Overview ofthe Basic Financial Statements
This discussion and analysis is intended to serve as an introduction to the City's basic financial statements, which include the following components: 1) government-wide financial statements, 2) fund financial statements, and 3) notes to the basic financial statements. This report also contains required supplementary information and other supplementary information in addition to the basic financial statements. These components are described below:
Government-wide financial statements. The government-wide financial statements are designed to provide readers with a broad overview of the City's finances, using accounting methods similar to those used by private-sector companies. The statements provide both short-term and long-term information about the City's financial position, which assists in assessing the City's economic condition at the end of the fiscal year. These financial statements are prepared using the flow of economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting. This basically means such statements follow methods that are similar to those used by most businesses. They take into account all revenues and expenses connected with the fiscal year even if cash involved has not been received or paid.
The government-wide financial statements include two statements:
The statement of net position presents information on all of the City's assets, deferred outflows, liabilities, and deferred inflows with the difference reported as net position. Over time, increases or decreases in net position may serve as a useful indicator of whether the financial position of the City is improving or deteriorating, respectively. To assess the overall health of the City, the reader should consider additional non-financial factors such as changes in the City's property tax base and the condition of the City's roads.

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
The statement of activities presents information showing how the government's net position changed during each fiscal year. All changes in net position are reported as soon as the underlying event giving rise to the change occurs, regardless of the timing of the related cash flows. Thus, revenues and expenses are reported in this statement for some items that will only result in cash flows in future periods (for example, uncollected taxes, and earned but unused vacation). This statement also presents a comparison between direct expenses and program revenues for each function of the City.
Both of the government-wide financial statements distinguish functions of the City that are principally supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues {governmental activities) from other functions that are intended to recover all or a significant portion of their costs through user fees and charges (business-type activities). The governmental activities of the City include general government, public safety, streets and sanitation, transportation, health, and cultural and recreation. The business-type activities of the City include water, sewer, tollway and airport services.
The government-wide financial statements present information about the City as a primary government, which includes the Chicago Public Library. The government-wide financial statements can be found immediately following this management's discussion and analysis.
Fund financial statements. A fund is a grouping of related accounts that is used to maintain control over resources that have been segregated for specific activities or objectives. The City, like other state and local governments, uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements. All of the funds of the City can be divided into three categories: governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds.
Governmental funds. Governmental funds are used to account for essentially the same functions reported as governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. However, unlike the government-wide financial statements, governmental fund financial statements focus on near-term inflows and outflows of spendable resources, as well as on balances of spendable resources available at the end of a fiscal year. Such information may be useful in evaluating a government's near-term financing requirements.
Because the focus of governmental funds is narrower than that of the government-wide financial statements, it is useful to compare the information presented for governmental funds with similar information presented for governmental activities in the government-wide financial statements. By doing so, readers may better understand the long-term impact of the government's near-term financing decisions. Both the governmental fund balance sheet and the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances provide a reconciliation to facilitate the comparison between governmental funds and governmental activities.
The City maintains 19 individual governmental funds. Information for the six funds that qualify as major is presented separately in the governmental fund balance sheet and in the governmental fund statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances. The six major governmental funds are as follows: the General Fund, the Federal, State and Local Grants Fund, the Special Taxing Areas Fund, Service Concession and Reserve Fund, the Bond, Note Redemption and Interest Fund, and the Community Development and Improvement Projects Fund. Data from the other governmental funds are combined into a single, aggregated presentation.
The City adopts an annual appropriation budget for its general and certain special revenue funds on a non-GAAP budgetary basis. A budgetary comparison statement has been provided for the General Fund, the only major fund with an appropriation budget, to demonstrate compliance with this budget. The basic governmental fund financial statements can be found immediately following the government-wide statements.
Proprietary funds. These funds are used to show activities that operate more like those of commercial enterprises. Because these funds charge user fees for services provided to outside customers including local governments, they are known as enterprise funds. Proprietary funds, like government-wide statements, use the accrual basis of accounting and provide both long- and short-term financial information. There is no reconciliation needed between the government-wide financial statements for business-type activities and the proprietary fund financial statements. The City uses five enterprise funds to account for its water, sewer, Skyway, and two airports operations.

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Proprietary funds provide the same type of information as the government-wide financial statements, but provide more detail. The proprietary fund financial statements provide separate information for the Water Fund, Sewer Fund, Chicago Skyway Fund, Chicago-O'Hare International Airport Fund and the Chicago Midway International Airport Fund. All the proprietary funds are considered to be major funds of the City. The basic proprietary fund financial statements can be found immediately following the governmental fund financial statements.
Fiduciary funds. Fiduciary funds are used primarily to account for resources held for the benefit of parties outside the primary government. The City is the trustee, or fiduciary, for its employees' pension plans. It is also responsible for other assets that, because of a trust arrangement can be used only for the trust beneficiaries. The City also uses fiduciary funds to account for transactions for assets held by the City as agent for various entities. The City is responsible for ensuring that the assets reported in these funds are used for their intended purposes. Fiduciary funds are not reflected in the government-wide financial statements because the resources of those funds are not available to support the City's own programs. All of the City's fiduciary activities are reported in a separate statement of fiduciary net position and a statement of changes in fiduciary net position. The accounting used for fiduciary funds is much like that used for proprietary funds. The fiduciary fund basic financial statements can be found immediately following the proprietary fund financial statements.
Notes to the basic financial statements. The notes provide additional information that is essential for a full understanding of data provided in the government-wide and fund financial statements. The notes to the basic financial statements can be found immediately following the fiduciary fund basic financial statements.
Additional Information. The combining statements, which include nonmajor funds, for governmental funds and trust and agency funds are presented immediately following the notes to the basic financial statements.
Financial Analysis of the City as a whole
Net Position. As noted earlier, net position may serve over time as a useful indicator of a government's financial position. In the case of the City, liabilities and deferred inflows exceeded assets by $6,536.3 million at December 31, 2014. Of this amount, $2,742.5 million represents the City's investment in capital assets (land, buildings, roads, bridges, etc.) less any related debt used to acquire those assets that is still outstanding. The City uses these capital 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 and deferred inflows.
An additional portion of the City's net position, $2,471.0 million, represents resources that are subject to external restrictions on how they may be used.

Governmental Activities. Net position of the City's governmental activities decreased $1,621.0 million to a deficit of $9,043.3 million, primarily as a result of increased pension costs. A significant portion of net position is either restricted as to the purpose they can be used for or they are classified as net investment in capital assets (buildings, roads, bridges, etc.). Consequently, unrestricted net position showed a $10,564.0 million deficit at the end of this year. This deficit does not mean that the City does not have the resources available to pay its bills next year. Rather, it is the result of having long-term commitments that are greater than currently available resources. Specifically, the City did not include in past annual budgets the full amounts needed to finance future liabilities arising from personnel, property, pollution and casualty claims ($900.6 million) and Municipal employees, Laborers', Policemen's and Firemen's net pension obligation and other post-employment benefits ($8,884.3 million). The City will include these amounts in future years' budgets as they come due. In addition, the remaining deferred inflow of $1,576.3 million from concession service agreements will be amortized into income over the life of such agreements.
Revenues for all governmental activities in 2014 were $5,729.1 million, an increase of $172.8 million from 2013. Over half of the City's revenues derived from taxes which increased by $98.8 million (3.2 percent). Total tax revenue includes an increase in property taxes received of $20.1 million (2.2 percent).
Expenses for governmental activities in 2014 were $7,350.1 million, an increase of $269.2 million (3.8 percent) over 2013. The amount that taxpayers paid for these governmental activities through City taxes was $3,191.6 million. Some of the cost was paid by those who directly benefited from the programs ($819.2 million), or by other governments and organizations that subsidized certain programs with grants and contributions ($720.6 million).
The City paid $997.7 million for the "public benefit" portion with other revenues such as state aid, interest and miscellaneous income.
Although total net position of business-types activities was $2,507.0 million,.these resources cannot be used to make up for the deficit in net position in governmental activities. The City generally can only use.this net position to finance the continuing operations of the water, sewer, Skyway, and airports activities.

Business-type Activities. Total Revenues of the City's business-type activities increased by $156.6 million in 2014 mostly from an increase in the charges for services and rental income, offset by a decrease in capital grant funding.
The Water Fund's operating revenues increased by $80.9 million (13.2%) from 2013 due to a 15% increase in water rates, offset by the conversion of 20,256 accounts from nonmetered to metered. Operating expenses before depreciation and amortization for the year ended 2014 increased by $23.5 million (8.6%) from the year ended 2013 mainly due to increases in transmission and distribution expenses of $14.2 million and central services of $10.5 million; offset by a decrease in purification costs of $2.3 million.
The Sewer Fund's operating revenues increased in 2014 by $42.5 million (15.2%) primarily due to an increase in sewer rates. Operating expenses before depreciation and amortization for 2014 increased $9.9 million (9.1%) from the year ended 2013 due to an increase in repairs, general fund reimbursements, maintenance and administrative and general.
Chicago Midway International Airport's operating revenues for 2014 decreased by $4.9 million (2.8%) from 2013 primarily due to lower landing fees, and terminal area use charges. Concessions were by $1.7 million higher than last year due to an increase in auto parking. Total operating expenses before depreciation and amortization were $8.5 million (7.0%) higher than last year, due to increases in repairs and maintenance, professional and engineering fees, and salaries and wages of $4.6 million, $4.1 million, and $3.8 million, respectively. These increases are offset by a decrease of $4.0 million in other operating expenses.
Chicago O'Hare International Airport's operating revenues for 2014 increased by $126.8 million (17.7%) compared to 2013 primarily due to increased landing fees and terminal area use charges. Operating expenses before depreciation, amortization and capital asset impairment costs increased by $68.9 million (16.2%) compared to 2013 primarily due to increases in repairs and maintenance, salaries and wages, other operating expenses and professional and engineering fees of $25.4 million, $20.8 million, and $15.7 million, and $7.0 million, respectively.
The Chicago Skyway was leased for 99 years to a private company. The agreement granted the company the right to operate the Skyway and to collect toll revenue during the term of the agreement. The City received an upfront payment of $1.83 billion of which $446.3 million was used to advance refund all of the outstanding Skyway bonds.

Financial Analysis ofthe City's Funds
As noted earlier, the City uses fund accounting to ensure and demonstrate compliance with finance-related legal requirements.
Governmental funds. The focus of the City's governmental funds is to provide information on near-term inflows, outflows, and balances of spendable resources. Such information is useful in assessing the City's financing requirements. In particular, unassigned fund balance may serve as a useful measure of a government's net resources available for spending at the end of the fiscal year.
At December 31, 2014, the City's governmental funds reported combined ending fund balances of $823.3 million, a decrease of $403.3 million in comparison with the prior year. Of this total amount $696.1 million was committed to specific expenditures, $65.2 million was assigned to anticipated uses, a deficit of $1,791.9 million was unassigned, $1,829.4 million was restricted in use by legislation, and $24.5 million was nonspendable.
The General Fund is the chief operating fund of the City. At the end of the current fiscal year, the unassigned fund balance of the General Fund was $51.6 million with a total fund balance of $141.3 million. As a measure of the General Fund's liquidity, it may be helpful to compare both unassigned fund balance and total fund balance to total fund expenditures. Total General Fund balance represents 4.4 percent of total General Fund expenditures. The fund balance of the City's General Fund decreased by approximately $25.8 million during the current fiscal year mainly due to an increase in personnel expenditures in public safety. The General Fund also provided $5.0 million to the Service Concession and Reserve Fund as appropriated for in the 2014 Budget.
The Federal, State and Local Grants Fund has a total deficit fund balance of $225.0 million. The deficit is $61.4 million lower than 2013 primarily due to more timely reimbursement of expenditures.
The Special Taxing Areas Fund has a total fund balance of $1,327.0 million, which is all restricted to specific expenditures.
The Service Concession and Reserve Fund accounts for deferred inflows from nonbusiness type long-term concession and lease transactions and has $620.9 million committed to specific expenditures. The unassigned deficit of $1,576.3 million results from the deferred inflows from long-term asset leases.
The Bond, Note Redemption and Interest Fund has a total fund balance of $26.9 million. This is $223.9 million lower than 2013 due to reclassification of long-term debt to short term debt during 2014. For more information, please refer to Note 9 to the basic financial statements.
The Community Development and Improvement Projects Fund has a total fund balance of $347.7 million. This is $15.9 million lower than 2013 due to increased capital improvement efforts.
Changes in fund balance. The fund balance for the City's governmental funds decreased by $403.3 million in 2014. This includes a decrease in inventory of $0.3 million.
Proprietary funds. The City's proprietary funds provide the same type of information found in the government-wide financial statements, but in more detail.
Unrestricted net position of the Water, Sewer, Chicago Skyway, Chicago-O'Hare International Airport, and Chicago Midway International Airport Funds at the end of the year amounted to a deficit of $1,185.8 million. The unrestricted net position deficit decreased by $93.0 million due to an increase in the unrestricted assets in the Water Fund and Sewer Fund. Other factors concerning the finances of these five funds have already been addressed in the discussion of the City's business-type activities.

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
General Fund Budgetary Highlights
The City's 2014 Original General Fund Budget was $3,290.2 million. This budget reflects an increase of $131.2 million (4.2 percent) over the 2013 Budget. On November 26, 2013 the City's 2014 General Fund Budget was approved by the City Council. The General Fund revenues on a budgetary basis were $28.9 million less than the final budget as a result of lower collection of fines, state income tax, internal service, and licenses and permits revenue offset by higher than expected taxes. Expenditures were $28.9 million less than budgeted as a result of favorable variances in general government expenditures, offset by unfavorable variances in public safety primarily as a result of higher than expected personnel related expenses. Additional information on the City's budget can be found in Note 3 under Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability within this report.

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Economic Factors and Next Year's Budgets and Rates
Local, national, and global economies play a major role in the City's finances and economic growth. In 2014, local and national economies experienced moderate growth and recovery from the economic downturn. Although rising home prices and shrinking inventory slowed the housing market in 2014 and home sales were down 7 percent compared to 2013, median home prices were up 14 percent over 2013. In 2014, nationwide, retail sales grew 4 percent over 2013, with consumer confidence showing consistent improvement. The average national unemployment rate decreased from 7.3 percent in 2013 to 6.2 percent in 2014, and Chicago's unemployment rate was down consistently throughout 2014. Tourism, business, and convention travel to Chicago remained strong in 2014, with amusement tax collections up about 17 percent and hotel tax revenues up about 12 percent from 2013. Additionally, in July 2014, Chicago had over one million occupied hotel rooms; this was the first time this benchmark has ever been reached in a single month.
The City's 2015 General Fund budget, totaling $3,534 million, was approved by a 46 to 4 vote of City Council on November 19, 2014. The 2015 budget balanced a preliminary budget shortfall of $297 million by reforming and cutting spending, and improving revenue growth. The 2015 budget balances the City's finances without raising property, sales or gas taxes. At the same time, it makes significant investments in youth, infrastructure, and businesses, as well as in City services, and it continues to build the City's reserves in order to enhance long-term financial stability. The 2015 budget also commits an additional $5 million to the City's long-term reserves, following provisions of $20 million in 2012, $15 million in 2013 and $5 million in 2014.
Requests for Information
This financial report is designed to provide a general overview of the City's finances for all of those with an interest in the government's finances. Questions concerning any of the information provided in this report or requests for additional financial information should be addressed to the City of Chicago Department of Finance

Exhibit 5
CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
RECONCILIATION OF THE STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCES OF GOVERNMENTAL FUNDS TO THE STATEMENT OF ACTIVITIES Year Ended December 31,2014 (Amounts are in Thousands of Dollars)

Amounts reported for governmental activities in the statement of activities are different from amounts reported for governmental funds in the statement of revenues, expenditures and changes in fund balances because:

Net change in fund balances - total governmental funds $ (402,965)

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. This is the amount by which capital outlays exceeded depreciation in the current
period '. 303,167

Revenues in the statement of activities that do not provide current financial
resources are not reported as revenues in the funds (155,112)

Bond proceeds provide current financial resources to governmental funds, but issuing debt increases long-term liabilities in the statement of net
assets. This is the amount by which proceeds exceeded repayments (115,625)
Certain 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 (1,250,462)

Change in the net position of governmental activities $ (1,620,997)

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The City of Chicago (City), incorporated in 1837, is a "home rule" unit under State of Illinois (State) law. The City has a mayor-council form of government. The Mayor is the Chief Executive Officer of the City and is elected by general election. The City Council is the legislative body and consists of 50 members, each representing one of the City's 50 wards. The members of the City Council are elected through popular vote by ward for four-year terms.
The accounting policies of the City are based upon accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America as prescribed by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). Effective January 1, 2014, the City adopted the following GASB Statements:
GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans, an amendment of GASB No. 25 ("GASB 67"), was established to provide improved financial reporting by state and local government pension plans. The Pension Plans (as defined below in subsection a) adopted GASB No. 67 during the year ended December 31, 2014.
GASB Statement No. 69, Government Combinations and Disposals of Government Operations ("GASB 69"), establishes accounting and financial reporting standards related to government combinations and disposals of government operations. The City adopted GASB 69 for the year ended December 31, 2014. GASB 69 requires disclosures to be made about government combinations and disposals of government operations to enable financial statement users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of those transactions. There was no impact on the City's Financial Statements as a result of the implementation of GASB 69.
GASB Statement No. 70, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Nonexchange Financial Guarantees ("GASB 70"), establishes accounting and financial reporting standards for financial guarantees that are nonexchange transactions (nonexchange financial guarantees) extended or received by a state or local government. The City adopted GASB 70 during the year ended December 31, 2014. GASB 70 requires a government that has issued an obligation guaranteed in a nonexchange transaction to report the obligation until legally released as an obligor. This Statement also requires a government that is required to repay a guarantor for making a payment on a guaranteed obligation or legally assuming the guaranteed obligation to continue to recognize a liability until legally released as an obligor. When a government is released as an obligor, the government should recognize revenue as a result of being relieved of the obligation. This Statement also provides additional guidance for intra-entity nonexchange financial guarantees involving blended component units and requires disclosures to be made about government combinations and disposals of government operations to enable financial statement users to evaluate the nature and financial effects of those transactions. There was no impact on the City's Financial Statements as a result of the implementation of GASB 70.
Other accounting standards that the City is currently reviewing for applicability and potential impact on the financial statements include:
GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pensions ("GASB 68"), establishes new financial reporting requirements for most governments that provide their employees with pension benefits through these types of plans. GASB 68 will be effective for the City beginning with its year ending December 31, 2015. GASB 68 replaces the requirements of GASB Statement No. 27, Accounting for Pensions by State and Local Governmental Employers and GASB Statement No. 50, Pension Disclosures, as they relate to governments that provide pensions through pension plans administered as trusts or similar arrangements that meet certain criteria. GASB 68 requires governments providing defined benefit pensions to recognize their long-term obligation for pension benefits as a liability for the first time, and to more comprehensively and comparably measure the annual costs of pension benefits. The Statement also enhances accountability and transparency through revised and new note disclosures and required supplementary information (RSI). As of December 31, 2014, the City reported a net pension obligation of $8.6 billion on the statement of net position and disclosed within Note 11 a combined unfunded actuarial accrued liability for all of the pension plans of $19.7 billion in accordance with GASB Statement No. 27. During 2014, the Pension Plans (as defined below
49

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
in subsection a) implemented GASB Statement No. 67, Financial Reporting for Pension Plans - an amendment of GASB Statement No. 25, and disclosed a combined net pension liability of $20.1 billion. The City has not yet determined the impact, if any, GASB 68 will have on the enterprise fund financial statements.
GASB Statement No. 71, Pension Transition for Contributions Made Subsequent to the Measurement Date -an amendment of GASB Statement No. 68 ("GASB 71"), relates to amounts associated with contributions, if any, made by a state or local government employer or nonemployer contributing entity to a defined benefit pension plan after the measurement date of the government's beginning net pension liability. GASB 71 will be effective for the City beginning with its year ending December 31, 2015. This Statement amends paragraph 137 of Statement 68 to require that, at transition, a government recognize a beginning deferred outflow of resources for its pension contributions, if any, made subsequent to the measurement date of the beginning net pension liability and requires that beginning balances for other deferred outflows of resources and deferred inflows of resources related to pensions be reported at transition only if it is practical to determine all such amounts.
GASB Statement No. 72 Fair Value Measurement and Application ("GASB 72"), addresses accounting and financial reporting issues related to fair value measurements. GASB 72 will be effective for the City beginning with its year ending December 31, 2016. This Statement provides guidance for determining a fair value measurement for financial reporting purposes and the related disclosures. This Statement requires a government to use valuation techniques that are appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value. This Statement establishes a hierarchy of inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. This Statement also requires disclosures to be made about fair value measurements, the level of fair value hierarchy, and valuation techniques.
Reporting Entity - The City includes the Chicago Public Library. The financial statements for the City have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), applicable to governmental units, as required by the Municipal Code of Chicago (Code).
The City's financial statements include the following legal entities as fiduciary trust funds:
The Municipal Employees' Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago is governed by a five-member board: three members are elected by plan participants and two are members ex-officio.
The Laborers' and Retirement Board Employees' Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago is governed by an eight-member board: two members are elected by plan participants, two are members ex-officio, two members are appointed by the City Department of Human Resources, one member is elected by retired plan participants and one member is elected by the local labor union.
The Policemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago is governed by an eight-member board: four members are elected by plan participants and four are appointed by the Mayor.
The Firemen's Annuity and Benefit Fund of Chicago is governed by an eight-member board: four members are elected by plan participants and four are members ex-officio.
Financial statements for each of these four pension plans (collectively/'Pension Plans") may be obtained at the respective fund's office.
Related Organizations - City officials are responsible for appointing a voting majority of the members of the boards of other organizations, but the City's accountability for these organizations does not extend beyond making appointments and no financial accountability or fiscal dependency exists between the City and these organizations. Therefore, the Chicago Park District, Chicago Public Building Commission, Chicago Public Schools, Community College District No. 508, Chicago Housing Authority and the Chicago Transit Authority are deemed to be related organizations.
Government-wide and fund financial statements - The government-wide financial statements (i.e., the statement of net position and the statement of activities) report information on all of the nonfiduciary activities

of the government. For the most part, the effect of interfund activity has been removed from these statements. Governmental activities, which normally are supported by taxes and intergovernmental revenues, are reported separately from business-type activities, which rely to a significant extent on user fees and charges for services.
The statement of activities demonstrates the degree to which the direct expenses of a given function or segment is offset by program revenues. Direct expenses are those that are clearly identified with a specific function or segment. Program revenues include: 1) charges to customers or applicants who purchase, use or directly benefit from goods, services, or privileges provided by a given function or segment and 2) grants and contributions that are restricted to meeting the operational or capital requirements of a particular function or segment. Taxes and other items not properly included among program revenues are reported instead as general revenues. Separate fund financial statements are provided for governmental funds, proprietary funds, and fiduciary funds, even though the fiduciary funds are excluded from the government-wide financial statements. Major individual governmental funds and major individual enterprise funds are reported as separate columns in the fund financial statements.
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 as are the proprietary fund and fiduciary fund financial statements. Revenues are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when a liability is incurred, regardless of the timing of related cash flows. Property taxes are recognized as revenues in the year for which they are levied. Grants and similar items are recognized as revenue as soon as all eligibility requirements imposed by the provider have been met.
Governmental fund financial statements are reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available. Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. For this purpose, the City considers revenues to be available if they are collected within 90 days of the end of the current fiscal period with the exception of property tax revenue, which is recorded as deferred inflows unless taxes are received within 60 days subsequent to year-end. Licenses and permits, charges for services and miscellaneous revenues are not considered to be susceptible to accrual and are recorded as revenues when received in cash. All other revenue items are considered to be measurable and available only when cash is received by the City. Expenditures generally are recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual basis of accounting, except for interest and principal on long-term debt, the long-term portion of compensated absences, claims and judgments and pension obligations.
The City reports the following major governmental funds:
The General Fund is the City's primary operating fund. It accounts for and reports all financial resources not accounted for and reported in another fund.
Federal, State and Local Grants Fund accounts for the expenditures for programs, which include general government, health, public safety, transportation, aviation, cultural and recreational, and capital outlays. The majority of revenues are provided by several agencies of the Federal government, departments of the Illinois State government and City resources.
Special Taxing Areas Fund accounts for expenditures for special area operations and maintenance and for redevelopment project costs as provided by tax levies on special areas.
Service Concession and Reserve Fund accounts for monies committed for mid and long term uses. The Mid-term portion is subject to appropriation for neighborhood human infrastructure programs, health, and other initiatives, whereas the Long-term portion is committed for future budgetary and credit rating stabilization. These reserves were created as a result of the Skyway Lease and Parking Meter System transactions. The deferred inflows result from long-term concession and lease transactions whose proceeds are recognized as revenue over the term of the agreements.

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Bond, Note Redemption and Interest Fund accounts for the expenditures for principal and interest as provided by property tax, utility tax, sales tax, transportation tax, and investment income.
Community Development and Improvement Projects Funds account for proceeds of debt used to acquire property, finance construction, and finance authorized expenditures and supporting services for various activities.
Within the governmental fund types, fund balances are reported in one of the following classifications:
Nonspendable - includes amounts that cannot be spent because they are either: a) not in a spendable form; or b) legally or contractually required to be maintained intact.
Restricted - includes amounts that are restricted to specific purposes, that is, when constraints placed on the use of resources are either: a) externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or b) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Committed - includes amounts constrained to specific purposes by a government itself, using its highest level of decision-making authority (i.e, City Council); to be reported as committed, amounts cannot be used for any other purpose unless the government takes the same highest-level action to remove or change the constraint. The City's highest level of decision-making authority is held by the City Council. The City Council passes Ordinances to commit their fund balances.
Assigned - includes amounts that are constrained by the City's intent to be used for specific purposes, but that are neither restricted nor committed. Intent is expressed by: a) the City Council itself; or b) a body or official to which the City Council has delegated the authority to assign amounts to be used for specific purposes. The Budget Director or Comptroller have authority to assign amounts related to certain legal obligations outside of the appropriation process within the General Fund. Within the other governmental fund types (special revenue, debt service, and capital projects) resources are assigned in accordance with the established fund purpose and approved appropriation. Residual fund balances in these fund types that are not restricted or committed are reported as assigned.
Unassigned - includes the residual fund balance that has not been restricted, committed, or assigned within the General Fund and deficit fund balances of other governmental funds.
The City reports the following major proprietary funds as business-type activities:
Water Fund accounts for the operations of the Chicago Water System (Water). The Water system purifies and provides Lake Michigan water for the City and 125 suburbs. The Water Fund operates two water treatment facilities and 12 pumping stations with a combined pumping capacity of 3,661 million gallons per day.
Sewer Fund accounts for the operations of the Wastewater Transmission System (Sewer). The Sewer system transports wastewater to the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago for processing and disposal. This service is provided for the residents and businesses of the City and certain suburban customers.
Chicago Midway International Airport Fund records operations of Chicago Midway International Airport (Midway) that provides regional travelers with access to airlines that generally specialize in low-cost, point-to-point, origin and destination passenger services. Midway Airport is conveniently located 10 miles from downtown Chicago.

Chicago-O'Hare International Airport Fund records operations of Chicago-O'Hare International Airport (O'Hare), the primary commercial airport for the City. The airlines servicing the airport operate out of four terminal buildings. Three domestic terminal buildings, having a total of 169 gates, serve domestic flights

and certain international departures. The International Terminal, having a total of 20 gates and five remote aircraft parking positions, serves the remaining international departures and all international arrivals requiring customs clearance.
Chicago Skyway Fund records operations of the Chicago Skyway (Skyway) which provides vehicle passage across the Calumet River, between the State of Indiana and the State of Illinois (State) through the operation of a tollway which consists of a 7.8-mile span connecting the Dan Ryan Expressway to the Indiana Toll Road. Facilities include a single toll plaza consisting of a central office, maintenance garage and toll collection area. In January 2005, the City entered into a long-term Concession and Lease Agreement of the Skyway, granting a private company the ability to operate and to collect toll revenue during the 99-year term ofthe agreement. The City received a one-time upfront payment of $1.83 billion.
Additionally, the City reports the following fiduciary funds:
Pension Trust Funds report expenditures for employee pensions as provided by employee and employer contributions and investment earnings.
Agency Funds account for transactions for assets held by the City as agent for certain activities or for various entities. Payroll deductions and special deposits are the primary transactions accounted for in these funds.
As a general rule, the effect of interfund activity has been eliminated from the government-wide financial statements. Exceptions to this general rule are payment-in-lieu of taxes and other charges between the City's water, sewer, airports and skyway funds. Elimination of these charges would distort the direct costs and program revenues reported for the various functions concerned.
Amounts reported as program revenues include: 1) charges to customers or applicants for goods and services, or privileges provided, or fines, 2) operating grants and contributions, and 3) capital grants and contributions, including special assessments. Internally dedicated resources are reported as general revenues rather than as program revenues. Likewise, general revenues include all taxes.
Certain indirect costs have been included as part of the program expenses reported for the various functional activities.
In the fund financial statements, proprietary funds distinguish operating revenues and expenses from non-operating items. Operating revenues and expenses generally result from providing services and producing and delivering goods in connection with a proprietary fund's principal ongoing operations. The principal operating revenues of the water and sewer funds are charges to customers for sales and services. The airport funds' principal operating revenues are derived from landing fees and terminal use charges as well as rents and concessions. Operating expenses for enterprise funds include the cost of sales and services, administrative expenses, and depreciation on capital assets. All revenues and expenses not meeting this definition are reported as non-operating revenues and expenses.
When both restricted and unrestricted resources are available for use, it is the City's policy to use restricted resources first, then unrestricted resources, as they are needed.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain 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. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

d) Assets, liabilities, deferred inflows, deferred outflows, and net position or equity
Cash, Cash Equivalents and Investments generally are held with the City Treasurer as required by the Code. Interest earned on pooled investments is allocated to participating funds based upon their average combined cash and investment balances. Due to contractual agreements or legal restrictions, the cash and investments of certain funds are segregated and earn and receive interest directly. The City uses separate escrow accounts in which certain tax revenues are deposited and held for payment of debt. The Code permits deposits only to City Council-approved depositories, which must be regularly organized state or national banks and federal and state savings and loan associations, located within the City, whose deposits are federally insured.
Investments authorized by the Code include interest-bearing general obligations of the City, State and U.S. Government; U.S. Treasury bills and other noninterest-bearing general obligations of the U.S. Government purchased in the open market below face value; domestic money market funds regulated and in good standing with the Securities and Exchange Commission and tax anticipation warrants issued by the City. The City is prohibited by ordinance from investing in derivatives, as defined, without City Council approval. The City values its investments at fair value or amortized cost. U.S. Government securities purchased at a price other than par with a maturity of less than one year are reported at amortized cost.
The City's four retirement plans are authorized to invest in bonds, notes, and other obligations ofthe U.S. Government; corporate debentures and obligations; insured mortgage notes and loans; common and preferred stocks; stock options; real estate; and other investment vehicles as set forth in the Illinois Compiled Statutes. These investments are reported at fair value.
Repurchase agreements can be purchased only from banks and certain other institutions authorized to do business in the State. The City Treasurer requires that securities that are pledged to secure these agreements have a fair value equal to the cost of the repurchase agreements plus accrued interest.
Investments generally may not have a maturity date in excess of ten years from the date of purchase. Certain other investments are held in accordance with the specific provisions of applicable ordinances.
Cash equivalents include certificates of deposit and other investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased.
Deficit cash balances result in interfund borrowings from the aggregate of funds other than escrowed funds. Interest income and expense are generally not recognized on these interfund borrowings.
State statutes and the City's Pension Plans' policies permit lending Pension Plan securities to broker-dealers and other entities with a simultaneous agreement to return the collateral for the same securities in the future. Securities lent at year-end for cash collateral are presented as not categorized in the schedule of custodial credit risk; securities lent for securities collateral are classified according to the category for the collateral.
Receivables and Payables activity between funds are representative of services rendered, outstanding at the end of the fiscal year, and are referred to as either "due to/from other funds" (i.e., the current portion of interfund loans) or "advances to/from other funds" (i.e., the noncurrent portion of interfund loans). Any residual balances outstanding between the governmental activities and business-type activities are reported in the government-wide financial statements as "internal balances."
All trade and property tax receivables are shown net of an allowance for uncollectibles. The allowance is based on historical trends. The estimated value of services provided but unbilled at year-end has been included in receivables.

Inventory includes government-wide inventories, which are stated at cost determined principally, using the average cost method. For proprietary funds, the costs of inventories are recorded as expenses when used (consumption method). Governmental fund inventories are accounted for using the purchases method and represent nonspendable resources because they do not represent expendable available financial resources.
Assets Held for Resale includes land and buildings of $4.1 million, recorded at lower of cost or market in the Federal, State and Local Grant Funds. These assets are purchased through the use of federal grants and City resources and are intended to be resold.
Restricted Assets include certain proceeds of the City's enterprise fund revenue bonds, as well as certain resources set aside for their repayment. These assets are classified as restricted or committed in the basic financial statements because they are maintained in separate bank accounts and their use is limited by applicable bond covenants or specific City Council action.
The Water and Sewer funds maintain Rate Stabilization Accounts where any net revenues remaining after providing sufficient funds for all required deposits in the bond accounts may be transferred upon the direction of the City to be used for any lawful purpose of the specific fund.
The O'Hare and Midway funds maintain Passenger Facility Charge accounts as restricted as they are subject to Federal Aviation Administration regulation and approval, to finance specific eligible capital and debt related activities.
Capital Assets, which include property, plant, equipment, and infrastructure assets (e.g. roads, bridges, sidewalks, and similar items), are reported in the applicable governmental or business-type activities columns in the government-wide financial statements. Capital assets are defined by the City as assets, or a network of assets, with an initial cost of more than $5,000 (not rounded) and an estimated useful life in excess of one year. Such assets are recorded at historical cost or estimated historical cost if purchased or constructed. Donated capital assets are recorded at estimated fair market value at the date of donation.
The costs of normal maintenance and repairs that do not add to the value of the asset or materially extend assets' lives are not capitalized.
Major outlays for capital assets and improvements are capitalized as projects are constructed. Interest incurred during the construction phase of capital assets of business-type activities is included as part of the capitalization value of the assets constructed. The total interest expense (Governmental and Business Activities) incurred by the City during the current fiscal year was $1,184.7 million, of which $83.8 million was capitalized as part of the capital assets under construction projects in proprietary funds.
Property, plant, and equipment of the City are depreciated using the straight-line method, in the year subsequent to acquisition or when placed into service, over the following estimated useful lives:
Utility plant
Utility structures and improvements
Buildings and improvements
Airport runways, aprons, tunnels, taxiways, and paved roads
Bridge infrastructure
Lighting infrastructure

The City has a collection of artwork and historical treasures presented for public exhibition and education that are being preserved for future generations. The proceeds from sales of any pieces of the collection are used to purchase other acquisitions. A portion of this collection is not capitalized or depreciated as part of capital assets.
Deferred Outflows represent the fair value of derivative instruments that are deemed to be effective hedges and unamortized loss on bond refundings.
Employee Benefits are granted for vacation and sick leave, workers' compensation and health care. Unused vacation leave is accrued and may be partially carried over for one year. Sick leave is accumulated at the rate of one day for each month worked, up to a maximum of 200 days. Severance of employment terminates all rights to receive compensation for any unused sick leave. Sick leave pay is not accrued. Employee benefit claims outstanding, including claims incurred but not reported, are estimated and recorded in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements. A liability for these amounts is reported in governmental funds only if they have matured, for example, as a result of employee resignations and retirements.
Employees are eligible to defer a portion of their salaries until future years under the City's deferred compensation plan created in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 457. The deferred compensation is not available to employees until termination, retirement, death or unforeseeable emergency. Third-party administrators who maintain the investment portfolio administer the Plan. The plan's assets have been placed in trust accounts with the plan administrators for the exclusive benefit of participants and their beneficiaries and are not considered assets of the City.
The City is subject to the State of Illinois Unemployment Compensation Act and has elected the reimbursing employer option for providing unemployment insurance benefits for eligible former employees. Under this option, the City reimburses the State for claims paid by the State. Expenditures for workers' compensation are recorded when paid in the governmental funds. A liability for these amounts is recorded in the government-wide and proprietary fund financial statements.
Judgments and claims are included in the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types. Uninsured claim expenditures and liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. These losses include an estimate of claims that have been incurred but not reported. In the fund financial statements, expenditures for judgments and claims are recorded on the basis of settlements reached or judgments entered within the current fiscal year. Amounts that related to deferred compensatory time and reserves for questioned costs are treated the same way.
Long-term obligations are included in the government-wide financial statements and proprietary fund types in the fund financial statements. Long-term debt and other long-term obligations are reported as liabilities in the applicable governmental activities, business-type activities, or proprietary fund type statement of net position. Bond premiums and discounts, as well as issuance costs, are deferred and amortized over the life of the related debt, except in the case of refunding debt transactions where the amortization period is over the term of the refunding or refunded debt, whichever is shorter.
The City enters into interest rate swap agreements to modify interest rates and/or cash flows on outstanding debt. For existing swaps, the net interest expenditures resulting from these arrangements are recorded as interest expense. The fair value of derivative instruments that are deemed to be effective is accounted for as deferred outflows. Derivative instruments that are deemed not effective are adjusted to fair value with the change in fair value recorded to investment earnings. Under certain bond ordinances adopted by the City Council, interest rate swaps and swaptions are authorized to be entered into by designated City officials in connection with certain bonds issued by the City. For swaps related to O'Hare Bonds, airline approval is also required before entering into a swap agreement.

In the fund financial statements, governmental funds recognize bond premiums and discounts, as well as bond issuance costs, during the current period. The face amount of debt issued is reported as other financing sources. Premiums received and discounts given on debt issued are reported as other financing sources or uses. Issuance costs, whether or not withheld from the actual debt proceeds received, are reported as expenditures.
Certain debt obligations are to be paid from sales tax, motor fuel or special area taxes. Pension
The City's contributions to the four Pension Plans primarily serving City employees are set by State law. In recent years, the total contributions have been lower than the actuarially required amounts for the Plans, which has served to increase the Plans' unfunded actuarial accrued liabilities. Recurring cash inflows from all sources to the Plans (including City contributions, employee contributions, and investment earnings) have been lower than the cash outlays of the Plans in some recent years. As a result, the Plans have liquidated investments and used assets of the Plans to satisfy their respective current payment obligations in those years. The use of assets by the Plans for these purposes reduces the amount of assets on hand to pay benefits or earn investment returns in the future.
Current State law for the Policemen's and Firemen's Plans, known as Public Act 96-1495 (P.A. 96-1495), requires the City to significantly increase contributions to those Plans beginning in 2016. In each year, the City must contribute the amount needed for each Plan to achieve a 90% Funded Ratio by the end of 2040. Under the enacted State legislation for the Municipal Employees' and Laborers' Plans, known as Public Act 98-641 (P.A. 98-641), the City is required to significantly increase contributions to those two Plans beginning in 2016. During the period 2016 through 2020, the City's contributions to the Municipal Employees' and Laborers' Plans increase by statutorily determined amounts which are not based on actuarial calculations. Beginning in 2021, P.A. 98-641 requires the City to contribute in each year to the Municipal Employees' and Laborers' Plans the amount needed for each Plan to achieve a 90% Funded Ratio by the end of 2055. P.A. 98-641 also makes certain modifications to the automatic annual increases paid to retirees and requires increases in employee contributions toward the cost of their retirement benefits. P.A. 98-641 is currently subject to challenge in a lawsuit alleging its unconstitutionality.
Senate Bill 777 ("SB 777"), an amendment to P.A. 96-1495, passed both houses of the Illinois General Assembly as of May 31, 2015. SB 777 institutes a Phase-in Period until 2020 and a Revised Amortization Period to 2055. A Revised Amortization Period would reduce the annual funding obligation required to reach a 90% Funded Ratio, but extend the number of years over which such payments would need to be made. Enactment of a Phase-in Period would reduce the City's required payment in the initial years to allow for a more gradual phase-in of the requirements of P.A. 96-1495. Although SB 777 has passed both chambers of the Illinois General Assembly, a motion to reconsider the vote on SB 777 has been filed in the Illinois Senate, and accordingly, SB 777 has not been sent to the Governor for consideration. The City makes no representation as to whether SB 777 will be enacted.
Liquidity
The City's general obligation bonds, sales tax revenue bonds and motor fuel tax revenue bonds were downgraded by Moody's, Standard & Poor's and Fitch Ratings in May 2015. Moody's cited in its rating action the Illinois Supreme Court's decision on May 8, 2015, which found the State Pension Reform Act unconstitutional, as limiting the City's options for addressing its unfunded pension liabilities. Moody's downgraded the City's general obligation, sales tax revenue and motor fuel tax revenue credits to Ba1. Moody's indicated that further downgrades could follow upon the occurrence of any of the following: (a) a determination by a court of law that P.A. 98-641 is unconstitutional; (b) continued growth in the debt and/or unfunded pension liabilities of the City and overlapping governments; and (c) narrowing of the City's fund balances and liquidity. At the same time, Moody's downgraded the City's Water senior lien revenue bonds from A2 to Baal, the Water second lien revenue bonds from A3 to Baa2 and the City's Wastewater senior lien bonds from A3 to Baa2 and the Wastewater second lien revenue bonds from Baal to Baa3, each with a negative outlook.

In May 2015, Standard and Poor's downgraded the rating of the City's general obligation bonds to A-from A+, Water senior lien and Wastewater senior lien revenue bonds to A from AA, and Water second lien revenue bonds and Wastewater second lien revenue bonds to A- from AA-.
In May 2015, Fitch Ratings downgraded the rating of the City's general obligation bonds and sales tax revenue bonds to BBB+ from A-.

The rating actions by Standard & Poor's and Fitch, in part, cited the Moody's rating action and the resulting uncertainty regarding the City's liquidity position.
Due to the Moody's downgrade of the City's general obligation credit to Ba1 (below investment grade) from Baa2, an event of default was triggered under credit agreements the City had entered into with certain banks to provide letters of credit supporting the City's general obligation debt (including the general obligation variable rate demand bonds) and to provide letters of credit or revolving lines of credit for the City's general obligation commercial paper notes and line of credit facilities, which consisted of general obligation revolving lines of credit from four banks and two series of general obligation commercial paper notes (one series backed by a letter of credit from Wells Fargo Bank and the other series backed by a letter of credit from Bank of Montreal). Upon the event of default, the banks providing letters of credit for the general obligation debt as well as the banks supporting the commercial paper/line of credit program had the right to demand immediate repayment of amounts owed under their credit agreements. The Moody's downgrade also resulted in a termination event under the City's existing interest rate swaps on its general obligation variable rate bonds; pursuant to those swap agreements, the swap counterparties had the right to set an early termination date for the swaps and demand a termination payment from the City.
Shortly after the Moody's downgrades and resulting event of default/termination event, the City terminated the letter of credit from Wells Fargo Bank; there were no commercial paper notes outstanding secured by that letter of credit. With respect to the other banks supporting the commercial paper/line of credit program, the banks providing letters of credit for the City's general obligation debt, and the counterparties on the interest rate swaps for its general obligation variable rate bonds, the City entered into forbearance agreements pursuant to which the affected banks agreed to temporarily forbear from exercising their respective rights resulting from the event of default/termination event. In May and June 2015, the City converted ($674 million) and/or redeemed ($132 million) all of its general obligation variable rate bonds and converted sales tax variable rate revenue bonds ($112 million) to long-term fixed rate bonds and terminated the associated letters of credit and interest rate swaps (termination payment of $221 million) for those bonds. For the agreements with the banks supporting the commercial paper/line of credit program, the forbearance agreements ($849 million) extend to September 30, 2015, but can terminate earlier if: (i) there are any other events of default by the City under the related credit agreements, (ii) there are further downgrades of the rating on the City's general obligation bonds, or (iii) the forbearance period in one of the other forbearance agreements terminates prior to its scheduled end date. The City plans to issue long-term general obligation fixed rate bonds in mid-2015 to repay most of the outstanding amounts under the commercial paper/line of credit program.
With respect to the City's Series 2000 and Series 2004 Water Second Lien Revenue Bonds, the downgrades triggered defaults under certain credit and/or liquidity facilities, and for the Series 2008C Wastewater Second Lien Revenue Bonds, certain continuing covenant agreements with those bondholders. The Moody's downgrades also triggered termination events under interest rate swap agreements relating to these bonds. In response to the triggering of these defaults and termination events, the City entered into forbearance agreements with the holders of its Series 2008C Wastewater Second Lien Revenue Bonds ($332 million) to June 30, 2016; and amended and/or transferred the interest rate swap agreements for its Water Second Lien Revenue Bonds (estimated termination value of $125 million) and its Wastewater Second Lien Revenue Bonds (estimated termination value of $75 million) to remove such termination event from the swap agreements prior to any demand being made for a termination payment by the counterparties; and obtained a waiver of the event of default from the provider of a letter of credit relating to the Series 2000 Water Second Lien Revenue Bonds. With respect

to the forbearance agreements with the holders of the Series 2008C Wastewater Second Lien Revenue Bonds, the forbearance period under each of those forbearance agreements extends to June 30, 2016, but can terminate earlier if: (i) there are any other events of default by the City under the related continuing covenant agreements, (ii) there are further downgrades of the rating on the Wastewater Second Lien Bonds, or (iii) the forbearance period in one of the other forbearance agreements for the Wastewater Second Lien Bonds terminates prior to its scheduled end date. With respect to the Series 2008C Water and Wastewater swap agreements, a ratings downgrade below Baa3 on the Second Lien Revenue Bonds for each of the respective credits would trigger a termination event with respect to the related swap agreement. With respect to the Water credit and/or liquidity facilities, a ratings downgrade below Baa3 on the Water Second Lien Revenue.Bonds would trigger an event of default.
The City believes its expected revenues along with current assets are sufficient to fund its operations on a continuing basis, through 2015 and beyond, notwithstanding the City's plans to issue additional bonds in 2015.
Deferred inflows represent amounts to be recognized as revenue on a straight line basis over the life of the related long-term lease and concession agreements. In the fund financials, grants that meet all of the eligibility criteria except for time availability and property taxes levied for a future period are also included in deferred inflows.
Fund equity in the government-wide statements is classified as net position and displayed in three components:

Net investement in capital assets - Consists of capital assets including restricted capital assets, net of accumulated depreciation and reduced by the outstanding balances of any bonds, mortgages, notes or any other borrowings that are attributable to the acquisition, construction, or improvement of those assets.
Restricted net position - Consists of net position with constraints placed on the use either by external groups such as creditors, grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments, or are legally restricted through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Restricted net position for business activities are provided in Exhibit 7, Statement of Net Position, Proprietary Funds.
Unrestricted - All other net positions that do not meet the definition of "restricted" or "net investement in capital assets."

b) Explanation of certain differences between the governmental funds' statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances and-the government-wide statement of activities.
i) The governmental funds statement of revenues, expenditures, and changes in fund balances includes a reconciliation between net changes in fund balances - total governmental funds and changes in net position - governmental activities as reported in the government-wide statement of activities. One element of that reconciliation explains that "Governmental funds report capital outlays as expenditures. However, in the statements of activities the cost of those assets is allocated over their estimated useful lives and reported as depreciation expense." The details of this $303.2 million are as follows (dollars in thousands):
Capitalized asset expenditures $ 656,672
Donated assets 14,476
Depreciation expense (367,845)

3) Stewardship, Compliance and Accountability
a) Annual Appropriation Budgets are established for the General Fund and the Vehicle Tax, Pension, Chicago Public Library and certain Miscellaneous, Special Events, Tourism and Festivals nonmajor Special Revenue Funds, on a non-GAAP budgetary basis:
Prior to November 15, the Mayor submits to the City Council a proposed budget of expenditures and the means of financing them for the next year.
The budget document is available for public inspection for at least ten days prior to passage of the annual appropriation ordinance by the City Council, which is also required to hold at least one public hearing.
Prior to January 1, the budget is legally enacted through passage of the appropriation ordinance.
Subsequent to the enactment of the appropriation ordinance, the City Council has the authority to make necessary adjustments to the budget, which results in a change in total or individual appropriations. The legal level of budgetary control is designated in the budget by object grouped by purpose except for the Motor Fuel Tax Fund, which is subsequently re-appropriated by project. A separate Motor Fuel Tax Fund Report demonstrates compliance with annual and project-length budgets required by the State. The

separately issued Supplement to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report provides budgetary information for all other budgeted funds. Copies of this report are available upon request.
v) All annual appropriations unused and unencumbered lapse at year-end. Encumbered appropriations are carried forward to the following year. Project-length financial plans are adopted for Capital Project Funds. Appropriations for Debt Service Funds are established by bond ordinance.
b) Reconciliation of GAAP Basis to Budgetary Basis - The City's budgetary basis of accounting used for budget vs. actual reporting differs from GAAP. For budgetary purposes, encumbrances are recorded as expenditures but are included in "Unassigned" fund balance for GAAP purposes. For budgetary purposes, proceeds of long-term debt and transfers in are classified as revenues. For budgetary purposes prior years' resources used to cover current year budgetary expenditures are recorded as revenues. For GAAP purposes, proceeds of long-term debt and transfers out are treated as other financing sources. Provision for doubtful account expenditures are not budgeted. A reconciliation of the different basis of revenue and expenditure recognition for the year ended December 31, 2014 is as follows (dollars in thousands):

c) Individual Fund Deficits include the Chicago Skyway Fund, an Enterprise Fund, which has a fund deficit of $1,364.3 million which management anticipates will be funded through recognition of deferred inflows. Midway International Airport Fund has a fund deficit of $6.7 million which will be funded through future revenues. Federal State and Local Grants, a governmental fund, has a deficit of $225.0 million and will be funded by the recognition of deferred grant inflows and unearned revenue. The Service Concession and Reserve Fund, a Special Revenue Fund, has a deficit fund balance of $955.4 million which will be funded through the recognition of deferred inflows. Also, the Bond, Note Redemption and Interest Fund has a deficit of $26.9 which will be funded through the issuance of General Obligation Bonds.

Custodial Credit Risk - Cash and Certificates of Deposit: This is the risk that in the event of a bank failure, the City's deposits may not be returned. The City's Investment Policy states that in order to protect the City's deposits, depository institutions are to maintain collateral pledges on City deposits during the term of the deposit of at least 102 percent of marketable U.S. government, or approved securities or surety bonds, issued by top-rated insurers. Collateral is required as security whenever deposits exceed the insured limits of the FDIC. The bank balance of cash and certificates of deposit with the City's various municipal depositories was $318.2 million. 97.7 percent of the bank balance was either insured or collateralized with securities held by City agents in the City's name. $7.4 million was uncollateralized at December 31, 2014, and thus was subject to custodial credit risk.
Custodial Credit Risk - Investments: For an investment, this is the risk that, in the event of the failure of the counterparty, the City will not be able to recover the value of its investments or collateral securities that are in possession of an outside party. The City has no custodial credit risk exposure because investment securities are insured, registered and held by the City.

5) Property Tax
The City's property tax becomes lien on real property on January 1 of the year it is levied. The Cook County Assessor (Assessor) is responsible for the assessment of all taxable real property within Cook County (County), except for certain railroad property assessed directly by the State. The County Board has established a triennial cycle of reassessment in which one-third of the County will be reassessed each year on a repeating schedule established by the Assessor.
Property in the County is separated into fifteen classifications for assessment purposes. After the Assessor establishes the fair market value of a parcel of land, that value is multiplied by one of the classification percentages to arrive at the assessed valuation (Assessed Valuation) for that parcel. These percentages range from 10.0 percent for certain residential, commercial, and industrial property to 25.0 percent for other commercial and industrial property.
The Illinois Department of Revenue has the statutory responsibility of ensuring uniformity of real property assessments throughout the State. Each year, the Department of Revenue furnishes the county clerks with an adjustment factor to equalize the level of assessment among counties. This factor (Equalization Factor) is then applied to the Assessed Valuation to compute the valuation of property to which a tax rate will be applied (Equalized Assessed Valuation). The County Clerk adds the Equalized Assessed Valuation of all real property in the County to the valuation of property assessed directly by the State and subtracts total amounts of EAV in Tax Increment Financing Districts to arrive at the base amount (Tax Base) used in calculating the annual tax rates.
The County Clerk computes the annual tax rate by dividing the levy by the Tax Base and then computes the rate for each parcel of real property by aggregating the tax rates of all governmental units having jurisdiction over that particular parcel. The County Treasurer then issues the tax bills. Property taxes are deposited with the County Treasurer, who remits to the City its respective share of the collections. Taxes levied in one year become due and payable in two installments during the following year on March 1 and August 1 or 30 days from mailing of tax bills if later than July 1. The first installment is 55.0 percent of the prior year's tax bill. The second installment tax bill equals the total tax liability for the year minus the first installment tax bill amount.
The City Council has adopted an ordinance beginning in 1994, limiting the City's aggregate property tax levy to an amount equal to the prior year's aggregate property tax levy plus the lesser of (a) five percent or (b) the percentage increase in the annualized Consumer Price Index, based on the ordinance. The ordinance provides an exception for that portion of any property tax debt service levy equal to the aggregate interest and principal payments on the City's general obligation bonds and notes during the 12-month period ended January 1, 1994, subject to annual increase in the manner described above for the aggregate levy, all as provided by the ordinance. Most general obligation bond levies approved after 2001 have also been excluded from this limit.

9) Short-term Debt
Matured bonds represent principal due on coupon bonds in which the coupons have not been presented for payment. As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding balance was at $0.7 million.
Line of Credit and Commercial Paper Notes The City issues commercial paper notes and maintains revolving lines of credit for working capital in anticipation of receipt of other revenue and to fund capital projects, debt refinancing or restructuring; the latter are typically repaid from proceeds of later issuances of general obligation bonds. Historically, the commercial paper notes have been supported by underlying letters of credit that extend beyond one year from the date of the financial statements and the lines of credit have also extended beyond one year from the date of the financial statements. Thus, the outstanding amounts at December 31 have been historically recorded as long-term debt.
Due to the Moody's downgrade of the City's general obligation credit in May 2015, see Note 17, an event of default was triggered under each of the revolving credit agreements and the letter of credit reimbursement agreements for the commercial paper notes. Subsequent to December 31, 2014 the City terminated the letter of credit from Wells Fargo Bank; no commercial paper notes secured by that letter of credit were then outstanding. For the remaining banks, the City entered into forbearance agreements pursuant to which the affected banks agreed to forbear from exercising their respective rights resulting from the event of default. The forbearance period under each of the forbearance agreements extends to September 30, 2015, but can terminate earlier if: (i) there are any other events of default by the City under the related credit agreements, (ii) there are further downgrades of the rating on the City's general obligation bonds, or (iii) the forbearance period in one of the other forbearance agreements terminates prior to its scheduled end date. As the forbearance period with respect to the credit agreements and the underlying letter of credit associated with the outstanding commercial paper notes is less than one year from the date of the financial statements, the outstanding general obligation commercial paper notes and lines of credit at December 31, 2014 have been recorded as fund liabilities in the fund financials, as follows (dollars in thousands):

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Fair Value. As of December 31, 2014, the swaps had a negative fair value of $390.9 million. As per industry convention, the fair values of the City's outstanding swaps were estimated using the zero-coupon method. This method calculates the future net settlement payments required by the swap, assuming that the forward rates implied by the yield curve correctly anticipate future spot rates. These payments are then discounted using the spot rates implied by the current yield curve for hypothetical zero-coupon bonds due on the date of each future net settlement on the swap. Because interest rates are below the Fixed Rate Paid, the City's swaps had negative values. Note that the combination of the negative fair value of $390.9 million less the unamortized interest rate swap premium balance of $6.9 million related to investment derivative instruments and $34.9 million related to governmental cash flow hedges represent the total fair value of the derivative liability in the statement of net position. During 2014, the City terminated the swap associated with Series 2002B General Obligation Variable Rate Demand Bond (Neighborhoods Alive 21 Program); the termination payment amounted to $36.3 million.
Credit Risk. The City is exposed to credit risk (counterparty risk) through the counterparties with which it enters into agreements. If minimum credit rating requirements are not maintained, the counterparty is required to post collateral to a third party. This protects the City by mitigating the credit risk, and therefore the ability to pay a termination payment, inherent in a swap. Collateral on all swaps is to be in the form of cash or Eligible Collateral held by a third-party custodian. Upon credit events, the swaps also allow transfers, credit support, and termination if the counterparty is unable to meet the said credit requirements.
Basis Risk. Basis risk refers to the mismatch between the variable rate payments received on a swap contract and the interest payment actually owed on the bonds. The two significant components driving this risk are credit and SIFMA/LIBOR ratios. Credit may create basis risk because the City's bonds may trade differently than the swap index as a result of a credit change in the City. SIFMA/LIBOR ratios (or spreads) may create basis risk. With percentage of LIBOR swaps, if the City's bonds trade at a higher percentage of LIBOR over the index received on the swap, basis risk is created. This can occur due to many factors including, without limitation, changes in marginal tax rates, tax-exempt status of bonds, and supply and demand for variable rate bonds. The City is exposed to basis risk on all swaps except those that are based on Cost of Funds, which provide cash flows that mirror those of the underlying bonds. For all other swaps, if the rate paid on the bonds is higher than the rate received, the City is liable for the difference. The difference would need to be available on the debt service payment date and it would add additional underlying cost to the transaction.
Tax Risk. The swap exposes the City to tax risk or a permanent mismatch (shortfall) between the floating rate received on the swap and the variable rate paid on the underlying variable-rate bonds due to tax law changes such that the federal or state tax exemption of municipal debt is eliminated or its value reduced. There have been no tax law changes since the execution of the City's swap transactions.
Termination Risk. The risk that the swap could be terminated as a result of certain events including a ratings downgrade for the issuer or swap counterparty, covenant violation, bankruptcy, payment default or other defined events of default. Termination of a swap may result in a payment made by the issuer or to the issuer depending upon the market at the time of termination.
Rollover Risk. The risk that the City may be exposed to rising variable interest rates if (i) the swap expires or terminates prior to the maturity of the bonds and (ii) the City is unable to renew or replace the swap.
Swap payments and associated debt. Bonds maturing and interest payable January 1, 2015 have been excluded because funds for their payment have been provided for. As of December 31, 2014, debt service requirements of the City's outstanding variable-rate debt and net swap payments, assuming current interest rates remain the same, for their term are as follows (dollars in thousands):

No-Commitment Debt and Public Interest Loans include various special assessment, private activity bonds and loans. These types of financings are used to provide private entities with low-cost capital financing for construction and rehabilitation of facilities deemed to be in the public interest. Bonds payable on no-commitment debt are not included in the accompanying financial statements because the City has no obligation to provide for their repayment, which is the responsibility of the borrowing entities. In addition, federal programs/grants, including Community Development Block Grants and Community Service Block Grants, provide original funding for public interest loans. Loans receivable are not included as assets because payments received on loans are used to fund new loans or other program activities in the current year and are not available for general City operating purposes. Loans provided to third parties are recorded as current and prior year programs/grants expenditures. Funding for future loans will be from a combination ofthe repayment of existing loans and additional funds committed from future programs/grants expenditures.
Defeased Bonds have been removed from the Statement of Net Position because related assets have been placed in irrevocable trusts that, together with interest earned thereon, will provide amounts sufficient for payment of all principal and interest. Defeased bonds at December 31, 2014, not including principal payments due January 1, 2015, are as follows (dollars in thousands):

11) Pension Funds
a) Retirement Benefit-Eligible City employees participate in one of four single-employer defined benefit pension plans (Plans). These Plans are: the Municipal Employees'; the Laborers' and Retirement Board Employees'; the Policemen's; and the Firemen's Annuity and Benefit Funds of Chicago. Plans are administered by individual retirement boards of trustees comprised of City officials or their designees and of trustees elected by plan members. Certain employees of the Chicago Board of Education participate in the Municipal Employees' Fund or the Laborers' and Retirement Board Employees' Annuity and Benefit Fund. Each Plan issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and required supplementary information.
The financial statements of the Plans are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. Employer and employee contributions are recognized in the period in which employee services are performed. Benefits and refunds are recognized when payable.
Plan investments are reported at fair value. Short-term investments are reported at cost, which approximates fair value. Securities traded on national or international exchanges are valued at the last reported sales price at current exchange rates. Fixed income securities are valued principally using quoted market prices provided by independent pricing services. For collective investments, the net asset value is determined and certified by the investment managers as of the reporting date. Real estate investments are generally valued by appraisals or other approved methods. Investments that do not have an established market are reported at estimated fair value.
The Plans have a securities lending program. At year-end, the Plans have no credit risk exposure to borrowers because the amounts the Plans owe the borrowers exceed the amounts the borrowers owe the Plans. The contract with the Plans' master custodian requires it to indemnify the Plans if the borrowers fail to return the securities (and if the collateral is inadequate to replace the securities lent) or fail to pay the fund for income distributions by the securities' issuers while the securities are on loan. All securities loans can be terminated on demand by either the Plans or the borrower, although the average term of the loans has not exceeded 154 days. The Plans' custodian lends securities for collateral in the form of cash, irrevocable letters of credit and/or U.S. government obligations equal to at least 102 percent of the fair value of securities or international securities for collateral of 105 percent. Cash collateral is invested in the lending agents' short-term investment pool, which at year-end has a weighted average maturity that did not exceed 39 days. The Plans cannot pledge to sell collateral securities received unless the borrower defaults. Loans outstanding as of December 31, 2014 are as follows: market value of securities loaned $883.6 million, market value of cash collateral from borrowers $906.2 million and market value of non-cash collateral from borrowers $1.5 million.
The Plans provide retirement, disability, and death benefits as established by State law. Benefits generally vest after 20 years of credited service. Employees who retire at or after age 55 (50 for policemen and firemen) with 20 years of credited service qualify to receive a money purchase annuity and those with more than 20 years of credited service qualify to receive a minimum formula annuity. The annuity is computed by multiplying the final average salary by a percentage ranging from 2.0 percent to 2.5 percent per year of credited service. The final average salary is the employee's highest average annual salary for any four consecutive years within the last 10 years of credited service.
Historically, State law required City contributions at statutorily, not actuarially, determined rates. The City's contribution was calculated based on the total amount of contributions by employees to the Plan made in the calendar year two years prior, multiplied by (in recent years) 1.25 for the Municipal Employees', 1.00 for the Laborers', 2.00 for the Policemen's, and 2.26 for the Firemen's. State law also requires covered employees to contribute a percentage of their salaries.
Beginning in 2016, current State law requires significantly increased contributions by the City to the Policemen's and Firemen's Plans. This is projected to require an increase in the City's contributions to the Policemen's and Firemen's Plans by more than $548.6 million starting in 2016 and increasing by

approximately three percent each year thereafter. A bill was recently passed by the Illinois General Assembly which would, among other things, institute an extension to 2055 of the period by which the unfunded liabilities ofthe Policemen's and Firemen's Plans are amortized to a 90 percent Funded Ratio. This would also phase-in over the next five years the increases in the City's contributions to the Policemen's and Firemen's Plans. A motion to reconsider this vote has been filed in the Illinois Senate and is under consideration.
Also beginning in 2016, State law requires significantly increased contributions by the City to the Municipal Employees' and Laborers' Plans. The multiplier determining the City contribution, based on the total amount of contributions by employees to the respective Plans made in the calendar year two years prior, will increase as follows: for the City contribution to be made in 2016, 1.60 (Laborers') and 1.85 (Municipal Employees'); for the contribution made in 2017, 1.90 (Laborers') and 2.15 (Municipal Employees'); for the contribution made in 2018, 2.20 (Laborers') and 2.45 (Municipal Employees'); for the contribution made in 2019, 2.50 (Laborers') and 2.75 (Municipal Employees'); and for the contribution made in 2020, 2.80 (Laborers') and 3.05 (Municipal Employees'). Beginning in 2021, the City's payment contributions for Laborers' and Municipal Employees' will equal the Normal Cost (based on actuarial calculations) for such year plus the amount, determined on a level percentage of payroll basis, that is sufficient to achieve a Funded Ratio of 90 percent in Laborers' and Municipal Employees' by the end of contribution year 2055. This will require an increase in the City's contributions to the Municipal Employees' and Laborers' Plans of more than $89.1 million starting in 2016 and increasing by approximately three percent each year thereafter.

The unfunded liability to the Plans poses significant financial challenges. The unfunded liability has consistently increased in recent years, but is expected to decrease in the future. Such a decrease is expected to result from significantly increased City contributions to the Plans, beginning in 2016, as required by State law (see Note 1). These increased contributions to the Plans are expected to pose a substantial burden on the City's financial condition.
b) Other Post Employment Benefits (OPEB) - The Pension Funds also contribute a portion of the City's contribution as subsidy toward the cost for each of their annuitants to participate in the City's health benefits plans, which include basic benefits for eligible annuitants and their dependents and supplemental benefits for Medicare eligible annuitants and their dependents. The amounts below represent the accrued liability of the City's pension plans related to their own annuitants and the subsidy paid to the City (see Note 12). The plan is financed on a pay as you go basis (dollars in thousands).

Actuarial Method and Assumptions - For-the Pension Funds' subsidies, the actuarial valuation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 was determined using the Entry Age Normal actuarial cost method. Projections of benefits for financial reporting purposes are based on the substantive plan (the plan understood by the employer and plan members) and included the types of benefits provided at the time of each valuation and the historical pattern of sharing of benefit costs between the employer and plan members to that point. The actuarial method and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long term perspective of the calculations.

12) Other Post Employment Benefits - City Obligation
Up to June 30, 2013, the annuitants who retired prior to July 1, 2005 received a 55 percent subsidy from the City and the annuitants who retired on or after July 1, 2005 received a 50, 45, 40 and zero percent subsidy from the City based on the annuitant's length of actual employment with the City for the gross cost of retiree health care under a court approved settlement agreement, known as the "Settlement Plan." The pension funds contributed their subsidies of $65 per month for each Medicare eligible annuitant and $95 per month for each Non-Medicare eligible annuitant to their gross cost. The annuitants contributed a total of $84.8 million in 2014 to the gross cost of their retiree health care pursuant to premium amounts set forth in the below-referenced settlement agreement.
The City of Chicago subsidized a portion of the cost (based upon service) for hospital and medical coverage for eligible retired employees and their dependents based upon a settlement agreement entered in 2003 and which expired on June 30, 2013.
On May 15, 2013, the City announced plans to, among other things: (i) provide a lifetime healthcare plan to former employees who retired before August 23, 1989 with a contribution from the City of up to 55% of the cost of that plan; and (ii) beginning July 1, 2013, provide employees who retired on or after August 23, 1989 with healthcare benefits in a new Retiree Health Plan (Health Plan), but with significant changes to the terms including increases in premiums and deductibles, reduced benefits and the phase-out of the Health Plan for such employees by December 31, 2016.

The cost of health benefits is recognized as an expenditure in the accompanying financial statements as claims are reported and are funded on a pay-as-you-go basis. In 2014, the net expense to the City for providing these benefits to approximately 24,381 annuitants plus their dependents was approximately $79.3 million.
Plan Description Summary - The City of Chicago was party to a written legal settlement agreement outlining the provisions of the Settlement Plans, which ended June 30, 2013. The Health Plan provides for annual modifications to the City's level of subsidy. It is set to phase out over three years, at which the Health Plan, along with any further City subsidy, will expire by December 31, 2016, for all but the group of former employees (the Korshak class of members) who retired before August 23, 1989, who shall have lifetime benefits. Duty Disabled retirees who have statutory pre-63/65 coverage will continue to have fully subsidized coverage under the active health plan until age 65.
The provisions of the Health Plan provide in general, that the City pay a percentage of the cost (based upon an employee's service) for hospital and medical coverage to eligible retired employees and their dependents for the specified period, ending December 31, 2016. The percentage subsidies were revised to reduce by approximately 25 percent of 2013 subsidy levels in 2014 and 50 percent of 2013 subsidy levels in 2015. Additional step downs in subsidy levels for 2016 have not yet been finalized.

In addition, State law authorizes the four respective Pension Funds (Policemen's, Firemen's, Municipal Employees', and Laborers') to provide a fixed monthly dollar subsidy to each annuitant who has elected coverage under any City health plan through December 31, 2016. After that date, no Pension Fund subsidies are authorized. The liabilities for the monthly dollar Pension Fund subsidies contributed on behalf of annuitants enrolled in the medical plan by their respective Pension Funds are included in the NPO actuarial valuation reports of the respective four Pension Funds under GASB 43 (see Note 11).
Special Benefits under the Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBA) - Under the terms of the collective bargaining agreements for the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), certain employees who retire after attaining age 55 with the required years of service are permitted to enroll themselves and their dependents in the healthcare benefit program offered to actively employed members. They may keep this coverage until they reach the age of Medicare eligibility. These retirees do not contribute towards the cost of coverage, but the Policemen's Fund contributes $95 per month towards coverage for police officers; the Firemen's Fund does not contribute.
Both of these agreements which provide pre-65 coverage originally expired at June 30, 2012. These benefits have been renegotiated to continue through 2016 or June 30, 2017, depending on bargaining unit agreements. This valuation assumes that the CBA special benefits, except for those who will have already retired as of December 31, 2016, will cease on December 31, 2016 or June 30, 2017, depending on bargaining unit agreements. The renegotiated agreements also provided that retirees will contribute 2% of their pension toward the cost of their health care coverage.
Funding Policy - No assets are accumulated or dedicated to funding the retiree health plan benefits.
Annual OPEB Cost and Net OPEB Obligation - The City's annual other post-employment benefit (OPEB) cost (expense) is calculated based on the annual required contribution of the employer (ARC). The ARC (Annual Required Contribution) represents a level of funding that, if paid on an ongoing basis, is projected to cover the normal cost each year and to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities over a period of ten years.
The following table shows the components of the City's annual OPEB costs for the year for the Health Plan and CBA Special Benefits, the amount actually contributed to the plan and changes in the City's net OPEB obligation. The Net OPEB Obligation is the amount entered upon the City's Statement of Net Position as of year end as the net liability for the other post-employment benefits - the Health Plan. The amount of the annual cost that is recorded in the Statement of Changes in Net Position for 2014 is the Annual OPEB Cost (expense).

The actuarial method and assumptions used include techniques that are designed to reduce the effects of short term volatility in actuarial accrued liabilities and the actuarial value of assets, consistent with the long term perspective of the calculations.
For the Health Plan benefits (not provided by the Pension Funds), the entry age normal actuarial cost method was used. The actuarial assumptions included an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 8.0% initially, reduced by decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.0% in 2026. The range of rates included a 3.0% inflation assumption. Rates included a 2.5% inflation assumption. The plan has not accumulated assets and does not hold assets in a segregated trust. However, the funds expected to be used to pay benefits are assumed to be invested for durations which will yield an annual return rate of 3.0%. The remaining Unfunded Accrued Actuarial Liability is being amortized as a level dollar amount over ten years. The benefits include the provisions under the new Health Plan, which will be completely phased-out by December 31, 2016, except for the Korshak category, which is entitled to lifetime benefits. Also included in the Non-CBA benefits are the duty disability benefits under the active health plan payable to age 63/65.
For the Special Benefits under the CBA for Police and Fire, the renewed contracts' expiration dates of June 30, 2016 (for Police Captains, Sergeants and Lieutenants) and June 30, 2017 for all other Police and Fire are reflected, such that liabilities are included only for payments beyond the end of the calendar year of contract expiration on behalf of early retirees already retired and in pay status as of December 31 of the expiration year of the contract. The entry age normal method was selected. The actuarial assumptions included an annual healthcare cost trend rate of 8.0% in 2014, reduced by decrements to an ultimate rate of 5.0% in 2026. Rates included a 2.5% inflation assumption. The plan has not accumulated assets and does not hold assets in a segregated trust.

13) Risk Management
The City is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to and destruction of assets; errors and omissions; certain benefits for and injuries to employees and natural disasters. The City provides worker's compensation benefits and employee health benefits under self-insurance programs except for insurance policies maintained for certain Enterprise Fund activities. The City uses various risk management techniques to finance these risks by retaining, transferring and controlling risks depending on the risk exposure.
Risks for O'Hare, Midway, and certain other major properties, along with various special events, losses from certain criminal acts committed by employees and public official bonds are transferred to commercial insurers. Claims have not exceeded the purchased insurance coverage in the past three years, accordingly, no liability is reported for these claims. All other risks are retained by the City and are self-insured. The City pays claim settlements and judgments from the self-insured programs. Uninsured claim expenditures and liabilities are reported when it is probable that a loss has occurred and the amount of that loss can be reasonably estimated. These losses include an estimate of claims that have been incurred but not reported. The General Fund is primarily used to record all non-Enterprise Fund claims. The estimated portion of non-Enterprise Fund claims not yet settled has been recorded in the Governmental Activities in the Statement of Net Position as claims payable along with amounts related to deferred compensatory time and estimated liabilities for questioned costs. As of December 31, 2014, the total amount of non-Enterprise Fund claims was $483.2 million and Enterprise Fund was $57.1 million. This liability is the City's best estimate based on available information. Changes in the reported liability for all funds are as follows (dollars in thousands):
2014 2013
Balance, January 1 $ 547,674 $608,485
Claims incurred and

14) Expenditure of Funds and Appropriation of Fund Balances
The City expends funds by classification as they become available, and "Restricted" funds are expended first. If/when City Council formally sets aside or designates funds for a specific purpose, they are considered "Committed." The Mayor (or his/her designee) may in this capacity, also set aside or designate funds for specific purposes and all of these funds will be considered "Assigned." Any remaining funds, which are not specifically allocated in one or more of the previous three categories, are considered "Unassigned' until such allocation is completed.
92

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
In addition to the categories above, any amounts which will be used to balance a subsequent year's budget will be considered "Assigned" as Budgetary Stabilization funds. The amounts may vary from fiscal year to fiscal year or depending on the City's budgetary condition, or may not be designated at all. The funds may be assigned by the Mayor or his designee, up to the amount of available "Unassigned" fund balance at the end of the previous fiscal year.

At the end of the fiscal year, total encumbrances for the General Operating Fund amounted to $29.2 million, $47.3 million for the Special Taxing Areas Fund, $75.5 million for the Capital Projects Fund and $7.3 million for the Non Major Special Revenue Fund.

15) Commitments and Contingencies
The City is a defendant in various pending and threatened individual and class action litigation relating principally to claims arising from contracts, personal injury, property damage, police conduct, alleged discrimination, civil rights actions and other matters. City management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the financial position of the City.
The City participates in a number of federal-and state-assisted grant programs. These grants are subject to audits by or on behalf of the grantors to assure compliance with grant provisions. Based upon past experience and management's judgment, the City has made provisions in the General Fund for questioned costs and other amounts estimated to be disallowed. City management expects such provision to be adequate to cover actual amounts disallowed, if any.
As of December 31, 2014, the Enterprise Funds have entered into contracts for approximately $518.1 million for construction projects.
The City's pollution remediation obligation of $8.5 million is primarily related to Brownfield redevelopment projects.

93

CITY OF CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
These projects include removal of underground storage tanks, cleanup of contaminated soil, and removal of other environmental pollution identified at the individual sites. The estimated liability is calculated using the expected cash flow technique. The pollution remediation obligation is an estimate and subject to changes resulting from price increases or reductions, technology, or changes in applicable laws or regulations.
Concession Agreements
The major fund entitled Service Concession and Reserve Fund is used for the purpose of accounting for the deferred inflows associated with governmental fund long-term lease and concession transactions. Deferred inflows are amortized over the life of the related lease and concession agreements. Proceeds from these transactions may be transferred from this fund in accordance with ordinances approved by the City Council that define the use of proceeds.
In February 2009, the City completed a $1.15 billion concession agreement to allow a private operator to manage and collect revenues from the City's metered parking system for 75 years. The City received an upfront payment of $1.15 billion which was recognized as a deferred inflow that will be amortized and recognized as revenue over the term of the agreement. The City recognizes $15.3 million of revenue for each year through 2083.
In December 2006, the City completed a long-term concession and lease of the City's downtown underground public parking system. The concession granted Chicago Loop Parking, LLC (CLP) the right to operate the garages and collect parking and related revenues for the 99-year term of the agreement. The City received an upfront payment of $563.0 million of which $347.8 million was simultaneously used to purchase three of the underground garages from the Chicago Park District. The City recognized a deferred inflow that will be amortized and recognized as revenue over the term of the lease. The City recognizes $5.7 million of revenue for each year through 2105. In January 2014, CLP assigned all of its interests in the concession and lease agreement to LMG2, LLC, the designee of its lenders, in lieu of foreclosure by the lenders on their leasehold mortgage on the underground garages.
In January 2005, the City completed a long-term concession and lease of the Skyway. The concession granted a private company the right to operate the Skyway and to collect toll revenue from the Skyway for the 99-year term of the agreement. The City received an upfront payment of $1.83 billion; a portion of the payment ($446.3 million) advance refunded all of the outstanding Skyway bonds. The City recognized a deferred inflow of $1.83 billion that will be amortized and recognized as revenue over the 99-year term of the agreement. The City recognizes $18.5 million of revenue related to this transaction for each year through 2103. Skyway land, bridges, other facilities and equipment continue to be reported on the Statement of Net Position and will be depreciated, as applicable, over their useful lives. The deferred inflow of the Skyway is reported in the Proprietary Funds Statement of Net Position.
Subsequent Events Ratings
In February 2015, Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) downgraded the ratings of the City's General Obligation bonds, Sales Tax revenue bonds and Motor Fuel Tax revenue bonds from Baal to Baa2, the City's Wastewater senior lien revenue bonds from A2 to A3, and the Wastewater second lien revenue bonds from A3 to Baal, each with a negative outlook.
In March 2015, Kroll Bond Rating Agency (Kroll) rated the City's General Obligation bonds A- with a stable outlook.
In May 2015 Moody's downgraded the City's General Obligation bonds, Sales Tax revenue bonds and Motor Fuel Tax revenue bonds from Baa2 to Ba1, with a negative outlook. At the same time, Moody's downgraded the City's Water senior lien revenue bonds from A2 to Baal, the Water second lien revenue bonds from A3 to Baa2 and the City's Wastewater senior lien bonds from A3 to Baa2 and the Wastewater second lien revenue bonds from Baal to Baa3, each with a negative outlook. The Moody's May 2015 downgrades triggered (with respect to the City's General Obligation debt, Sales Tax revenue bonds, Water second lien revenue bonds and Wastewater second lien revenue bonds) defaults under certain credit and/or liquidity facilities, certain general obligation revolving credit agreements and, for the Series 2008C Wastewater second lien revenue bonds, certain continuing covenant agreements with those bondholders. The Moody's May 2015 downgrades also triggered termination events under interest rate swap

agreements to which the City is a party. The City does not have any such facilities or agreements relating to its Motor Fuel Tax revenue bonds. In response to the triggering of these defaults and termination events, the City took several actions: (i) it terminated the Wells Fargo letter of credit securing two series of its General Obligation commercial paper notes (no such notes were outstanding at the time of termination) and terminated the associated reimbursement agreement; (ii) it entered into forbearance agreements with (A) the providers of credit and/or liquidity facilities for its General Obligation bonds, General Obligation commercial paper notes and Sales Tax revenue bonds, (B) the lenders on its General Obligation revolving credit agreements, (C) the counterparties on its General Obligation and Sales Tax Revenue interest rate swap agreements, and (D) the holders of its Series 2008C Wastewater second lien revenue bonds; (iii) it amended and/or transferred the interest rate swap agreements for its Water second lien revenue bonds and its Wastewater second lien revenue bonds to remove such termination event from the swap agreements prior to any demand being made for a termination payment by the counterparties; and (iv) it obtained a waiver of the event of default from the provider of a letter of credit relating to its Water second lien revenue bonds.
In May 2015, subsequent to the Moody's downgrades, Standard and Poor's (S&P) downgraded the City's General Obligation bonds from A+ to A- with a negative watch. S&P also downgraded the City's Water senior lien revenue bonds from AA to A, the Water second lien revenue bonds from AA- to A- the City's Wastewater senior lien bonds from AA to A and the Wastewater second lien revenue bonds from AA- to A-, each with a negative watch.
In May 2015, subsequent to the Moody's downgrades, Fitch Ratings (Fitch) downgraded the City's General Obligation bonds and Sales Tax revenue bonds from A- to BBB+, with a negative watch.
In June 2015, Kroll rated the Sales Tax revenue bonds AA+ with a stable outlook.
Bonds

YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
Swaps
In May and June 2015, the City terminated all of its General Obligation and Sales Tax revenue swaps and transferred and modified certain thresholds with respect to Additional Termination Events for its Water second lien revenue swaps and Wastewater second lien revenue swaps.
The City terminated the swaps relating to its (1) General Obligation Bonds, Project and Refunding Series 2003B for total termination payments of $31.0 million, (2) General Obligation Bonds, Project and Refunding Series 2005D for total termination payments of $62.8 million, (3) General Obligation Bonds, Refunding Series 2007 E, F and G for total termination payments of $62.0 million and 4) Sales Tax Revenue Refunding Bonds, Series 2002 for a termination payment of $29.0 million.
The City transferred the swaps with UBS related to its Water Second Lien Revenue Bonds, Series 2000 ($100.0 million notional amount) and Series 2004 ($173.3 million notional amount) to Barclays. At the same time, the ATE rating threshold was reduced from below Baal by Moody's or BBB+ by S&P to below Baa3 or BBB- by Moody's and S&P respectively. In addition, the swap with Royal Bank of Canada relating to the City's Water Second Lien Revenue Bonds, Series 2004 ($182.2 million notional amount) was modified to reduce the ATE rating threshold from below Baal by Moody's or BBB+ by S&P to below BBB+ by S&P or Fitch.
The City modified the ATE rating thresholds related to its Second Lien Wastewater Transmission Revenue Bonds, Series 2008C swaps with JPMorgan ($49.8 million notional amount) and Bank of America ($49.8 million notional amount) from below Baal by Moody's or BBB+ by S&P to below Baa3 or BBB- by Moody's or S&P, respectively.
Commercial Paper, Letters of Credit, Lines of Credit and Continuing Covenant Agreements
As of December 31, 2014, the outstanding balance for the City's General Obligation Commercial Paper Notes and General Obligation Lines of Credit (G.O. CP) was $297.4 million. Since January 2015, the City has paid down $54.2 million of G.O. CP and has issued $591.8 million to refund certain outstanding bonds, facilitate the conversion of variable rate bonds to fixed rate, fund swap termination payments and pay certain settlements and judgments. The current G.O. CP outstanding is approximately $835.0 million.
In February 2015, the City's Midway Commercial Paper program was reduced from $150 million to $85 million. As such, the PNC letter of credit was not extended.
In April 2015, the City issued $30.5 million aggregate principal amount of its Chicago O'Hare International Airport Commercial Paper Notes (O'Hare CP Notes). The proceeds of these O'Hare CP Notes were used to finance a portion of the cost of authorized airport projects.
In May and June 2015, the City converted its General Obligation bonds and Sales Tax revenue bonds from variable rate to fixed rate, as discussed above. The related letters of credit and liquidity facilities were terminated at the time of the conversion.
Due to the May 2015 downgrades by Moody's, the City entered into forbearance agreements with its General Obligation commercial paper credit providers (except Wells Fargo), the lenders on its General Obligation revolving credit agreements and the Orange Line letter of credit provider. The forbearance agreements extend to September 30, 2015, unless another event of default is triggered, including another rating downgrade by Moody's or a downgrade below investment grade by S&P or Fitch. The Wells Fargo letter of credit was terminated; there were no such General Obligation commercial paper notes outstanding secured by that letter of credit. The City also entered into forbearance agreements with the holders of its Series 2008C Wastewater second lien revenue bonds. Each of those holders has a continuing covenant agreement with the City with respect to its bonds. An event of default was triggered under each continuing covenant agreement due to the May 2015 downgrades by Moody's. The forbearance agreements extend to June 30, 2016 (provided that the City has taken certain steps prior to June 30, 2016 to convert the Series 2008C Wastewater second lien revenue bonds to fixed rates of interest), unless another event of default is triggered, including another rating downgrade by Moody's or a downgrade below investment grade by S&P or Fitch.
In May 2015, the City entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with DNT Asset Trust, which allows the City to draw on the line of credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $200.0 million to facilitate the conversions of the City's

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2014
General Obligation variable rate bonds to fixed rate, by funding a portion of the purchase price of tendered bonds as well as paying for the redemption of bonds which were not converted to fixed rate. The line of credit was subsequently reduced to $151.6 million, to reflect the amount of the draws related to the conversions. The City's repayment obligation under the line of credit is a general obligation of the City. The line of credit expires September 30, 2015. In June 2015, the City amended its Revolving Credit Agreement with Bank of America, which increases the line of credit amount to $348.4 million. The City's repayment obligation under the line of credit is a general obligation of the City. The line of credit remains in effect through the forbearance period ending on September 30, 2015, although any draws on the line of credit during and after the forbearance period are subject to approval by the bank in its sole discretion.

Notes:
An underlying rating by any rating agency for the related debt (or lowest rated lien of the related credit) below what is shown in the chart in the "Ratings Threshold" column would constitute an event of default under the agreements with the related banks.
The agreements with The Bank of New York Mellon provide that until February 15, 2015, the Ratings Threshold shall be "Baa3" by Moody's and "BBB-" by Fitch and S&P. After February 15, 2015, the Rating Threshold becomes "Baa2" by Moody's and "BBB" by Fitch and S&P. The agreements were subsequently amended in 2015 changing February 15, 2015 to October 2, 2015. On April 30, 2015, The Bank of New York Mellon entered into a participation agreement with JP Morgan for the full amount of the bonds.
The agreement with Barclays provides that it is an event of default if (A) any two Rating Agencies then rating the Debt of the City payable from or secured by Pledged Revenues which is senior to or on parity with the Bonds shall have downgraded their rating on such Debt to or below "Baa2" (or its equivalent) or "BBB" (or its equivalent), respectively, or (B) any Rating Agency shall have downgraded its rating of any Debt of the City payable from or secured by the Pledged Revenues which is senior to or on a parity with the Bonds to below "Baa3" (or its equivalent) or "BBB-" (or its equivalent), respectively, or suspended or withdrawn its rating of the same and such downgrade, suspension or withdrawal shall remain for a period of 180 days.
The Event of Default is triggered if the General Obligation rating falls below the threshold above by any of the rating agencies. A covenant to use reasonable efforts to replace the letter of credit within 30 days is triggered if the rating is below Baal or BBB+ by Moody's or S&P respectively.
The Letter of Credit amount varies up to a maximum $180.7 million.
