DREWEL COUNTY EXECUTIVE October 16, 2001 MS 610 3000 ROCKEFELLER AVENUE Honorable Robert J. Drewel EVERETT, WASHINGTON 98201-4046 OFFICE (425) 388-3475 Snohomish County Executive FAX (425) 388-3744 County Administration Building Everett, Washington 98201 Re. Transmittal of 2000 General Purpose Financial Statement Dear County Executive Drewel: This correspondence will transmit the 2000 General Purpose Financial Statement for Snohomish County, Washington. This letter of transmittal has been organized into three sections: Introduction, Financial In- formation and Other Information. Introduction The Introduction Section will provide you with information regarding management representation, the General Purpose Financial Statement organization and the reporting entity. Representation The Snohomish County Finance Department is responsible for the accuracy, com- pleteness, and fairness of presentation of the information contained in this report. We believe this data is presented in a manner that fairly sets forth the financial po- sition and results of operations of the County as measured by the financial activity of its various funds; and that all disclosures necessary to enable the reader to gain the maximum understanding of the County’s financial affairs have been included. Financial Statements These General Purpose Financial Statements are divided into three sections: Intro- ductory, Financial, and Statistical. The Introductory Section contains a list of prin- cipal county officials, an organizational chart, a Table of Contents, and this letter of transmittal. The Financial Section contains the independent auditor’s report, the combined financial statements, and accompanying notes. The Statistical Section contains a number of statistical tables and charts that present various financial, economic, social and demographic data about the county for the last ten years. Reporting Entity Snohomish County operates under a Home Rule Charter, which was adopted by a vote of citizens in 1979, amended through the charter review process in January 1997. Independently elected administrative officials include the County Executive, the Prosecuting Attorney, the Sheriff, the Auditor, the Clerk, the Treasurer, and the Assessor who are elected at-large. A five member County, elected 2000- Letter of Transmittal by district, constitutes the legislative body. Elected officials serve four-year terms, councilman elections are staggered. Snohomish County provides many services on a county-wide basis and some services only to unincorporated areas. Within ap- propriate jurisdictions, the county provides road construction and maintenance, law enforcement, criminal prosecution and indigent defense, superior and district court services, criminal detention and correction, tax assessment and collections, plan- ning and community development services, elections and recordings, inquests, and an array of human services. In addition, the county owns and operates an airport and industrial park, a solid waste disposal facility, a golf course, and a data proc- essing center. Most funds in this report pertain to the entity of Snohomish County. Certain agency funds pertain to the County’s custodianship of assets belonging to independent gov- ernments and special purpose districts. The Snohomish County Treasurer acts as the ex officio treasurer for most special purpose districts of Snohomish County. Monies received from or for the special purpose districts are deposited in a centralized bank account. The County Treasurer invests or disburses moneys pursuant to instructions of the respective special pur- pose district’s governing body or administrative officers. Component Unit The annual financial report includes the Pilchuck Development Corporation. This is a legally separate entity from the County but requires inclusion for reporting pur- poses for two reasons: The Board of Directors are appointed by the Snohomish County Council, and the Corporation is prohibited from issuing industrial revenue bonds without the approval of the county Council. Financial Information The financial information section will provide you with internal and budgetary control, general govern- ment and proprietary operations, internal service, debt administration, cash and risk management. Internal Control The Snohomish County Finance Department maintains the accounting system and records of all Snohomish County funds

Due to the foresight of many individuals, this process became a partnership in which jurisdictional politics were set aside so that true land use planning based on the ecosystem rather than political boundaries could take place. We are grateful to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Ecology (DOE) and Puget Sound Water Quality Authority for funding this planning effort, and to Linda Storm of the EPA and Lynn Beaton (formerly of DOE) for their guidance and encouragement during the grant application process and development of the Wetland Integration Plan.
