INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER MATTERS
BASED ON AN AUDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Board of Supervisors
County of San Luis Obispo
San Luis Obispo, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits
contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States, the financial statements of the governmental activities, the
business-type activities, the discretely presented component unit, each major fund,
and the aggregate remaining fund information of the County of San Luis Obispo (the
County), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the
financial statements, which collectively comprise the County’s basic financial
statements, and have issued our report thereon dated December 21, 2016. Our
report includes a reference to other auditors who audited the financial statements of
the First 5 San Luis Obispo County, a discretely presented component unit, as
described in our report on the County’s financial statements. This report does not
include the results of the other auditors’ testing of internal control over financial
reporting or compliance and other matters that are reported on separately by those
auditors.
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the
County’s internal control over financial reporting (internal control) to determine the
audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of
expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s
internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does
not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely
basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in
internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the entity’s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected
and corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a
combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material
weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with
governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal
control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these
limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that
we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist
that have not been identified.
1
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the County’s financial statements are free from
material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on
the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with
those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be
reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance
and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal
control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with
Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control and compliance. Accordingly,
this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE FOR
EACH MAJOR PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER
COMPLIANCE REQUIRED BY THE UNIFORM GUIDANCE
Board of Supervisors
County of San Luis Obispo
San Luis Obispo, California
Report on Compliance for Each Major Federal Program
We have audited the County of San Luis Obispo’s (the County) compliance with the
types of compliance requirements described in the U.S. Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) Compliance Supplement that could have a direct and material effect
on each of the County’s major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2016.
The County’s major federal programs are identified in the summary of auditor’s
results section of the accompanying schedule of findings and questioned costs.
Management’s Responsibility
Management is responsible for compliance with federal statutes, regulations, and the
terms and conditions of its federal awards applicable to its federal programs.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on compliance for each of the County’s
major federal programs based on our audit of the types of compliance requirements
referred to above. We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards
applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by
the Comptroller General of the United States; and the audit requirements of Title 2
U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements,
Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance).
Those standards and the Uniform Guidance require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether noncompliance with the types of
compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material
effect on a major federal program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence about the County’s compliance with those requirements and
performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion on compliance
for each major federal program. However, our audit does not provide a legal
determination of the County’s compliance.
Opinion on Each of the Major Federal Programs
In our opinion, the County complied, in all material respects, with the types of
compliance requirements referred to above that could have a direct and material
effect on each of its major federal programs for the year ended June 30, 2016.
3
Report on Internal Control over Compliance
Management of the County is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over
compliance with the types of compliance requirements referred to above. In planning and performing our
audit of compliance, we considered the County’s internal control over compliance with the types of
requirements that could have a direct and material effect on each major federal program to determine the
auditing procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
compliance for each major federal program and to test and report on internal control over compliance in
accordance with the Uniform Guidance, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the County’s internal control over compliance.
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over
compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a
federal program on a timely basis. A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a
deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over compliance, such that there is a
reasonable possibility that material noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal
program will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency in
internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over
compliance with a type of compliance requirement of a federal program that is less severe than a material
weakness in internal control over compliance, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged
with governance.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control over
compliance that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. We did not identify any
deficiencies in internal control over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However,
material weaknesses may exist that have not been identified.
The purpose of this report on internal control over compliance is solely to describe the scope of our
testing of internal control over compliance and the results of that testing based on the requirements of the
Uniform Guidance. Accordingly, this report is not suitable for any other purpose.
Report on Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards Required by the Uniform Guidance
We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities, the business-type activities, the
discretely presented component unit, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of
the County, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2016, and the related notes to the financial statements,
which collectively comprise the County’s basic financial statements. We issued our report thereon dated
December 21, 2016, which contained unmodified opinions on those financial statements. Our audit was
conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively comprise the
basic financial statements. The accompanying schedule of expenditures of federal awards is presented
for purposes of additional analysis as required by the Uniform Guidance and is not a required part of the
basic financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from
and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial
statements. The information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the
financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such
information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the basic financial
statements or to the basic financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in
accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion,
the schedule of expenditures of federal awards is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the
basic financial statements as a whole.

SECTION III – FEDERAL AWARD FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS

15
SECTION IV – STATUS OF PRIOR YEAR FINDINGS AND QUESTIONED COSTS
2015-01: Debt Accretion
Criteria:
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, internal controls should be designed to provide
reasonable assurance of achieving effective and efficient operations, reliable financial and performance
reporting, or compliance with applicable laws and regulations in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP).
Condition:
During our audit procedures over long-term debt, it was noted the County of San Luis Obispo (the
County) did not include the accreted value of the 2003 Capital Appreciation Bonds through June 30,
2015. The 2003 Series C Bonds will begin to mature on September 1, 2018, and each year thereafter
until 2030. Each bond should accrete (increase) in value from the date of issuance until maturity. In
accordance with the “Table of Accreted Values” in the official bond statement of the 2003 Capital
Appreciation Bonds, we noted the County did not report $35,486,164 in prior year accretion and
$4,528,978 in current year accretion.
Cause of Condition:
Per discussion with the client, the County had not previously issued debt instruments where interest is not
paid until maturity and was therefore not familiar with unique accounting procedures necessary to record
the accreted value component of these bonds. The County management has been aware of the
accretion in value and has identified the full obligation of the bonds in debt presentations before the Board
of Supervisors in a public setting. The County also has reported the full amount of debt service to
maturity in the notes to the financial statements each year since inception of the bonds. However, due to
the lack of familiarity with this unique type of bond, the County applied the same accounting procedures
to them as used for conventional debt instruments with interest payable each year, which would have
resulted in the accreted value being reporting in the Statement of Net Position in the year payable rather
than as it accretes over time as required under U.S. GAAP.
Effect:
Failing to record the accreted value of long-term debt could misrepresent the financial state of the County
in any given year and could result in the financial statements being materially misstated, thus not being in
compliance with U.S. GAAP reporting requirements.
Recommendation:
We recommend the County adjust the outstanding balance for the 2003 Series C Capital Appreciation
Bonds to include the accumulated accretion for all bonds as of June 30, 2015. In addition, we
recommend the County implement the proper internal control procedures to record the full balance of
outstanding debt, including accretion, for future years.
Management Response/Corrective Action Plan:
The County agrees with the finding and has recorded the correct accreted values through June 30, 2015,
and has calculated the amounts to record for each fiscal year thereafter through maturity.
Current Year Status:
Implemented.

We have audited the accompanying Schedule of Passenger Facility Charge
Revenues and Expenses (Schedule) of the County of San Luis Obispo (County), for
the annual period and each quarterly period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016.
Management’s Responsibility
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the Schedule
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 a financial schedule that is
free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express opinions on this financial schedule based on our
audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally
accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial
audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller
General of the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the
audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial schedule is free
from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts
in the Schedule. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the Schedule,
whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor
considers internal control relevant to the County’s preparation and fair presentation of
the Schedule in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the
circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness
of the County’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 Schedule.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to
provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the Schedule referred to above presents fairly, in all material respects,
the passenger facility charges received, held, and used by the County for the annual
period and each quarterly period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016, as defined by
the Federal Aviation Administration of the United States of America Department of
Transportation.

Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated March 22,
2017, on our consideration of the County’s internal control over financial reporting relating to the
Schedule and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and
grant agreements. The purpose of that report is to describe the scope of our testing of internal control
over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on
internal control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit
performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control
over financial reporting and compliance relating to the Schedule.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Board of Supervisors and the County of
San Luis Obispo and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than those specified
parties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON COMPLIANCE WITH
REQUIREMENTS APPLICABLE TO THE PASSENGER FACILITY CHARGE
PROGRAM AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE
Board of Supervisors
County of San Luis Obispo
San Luis Obispo, California
Compliance
We have audited the compliance of the County of San Luis Obispo (County) with the
compliance requirements described in the Passenger Facility Charge Audit Guide for
Public Agencies, issued by the Federal Aviation Administration (Guide), for its
Passenger Facility Charge Program for the annual period and each quarterly period
from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016. Compliance with the requirements of laws and
regulations applicable to its Passenger Facility Charge Program is the responsibility
of the County’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the
County’s compliance based on our audit.
We conducted our audit of compliance in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America; the standards applicable to
financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States; and the Guide. Those standards and the
Guide require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether noncompliance with the compliance requirements referred to above
that could have a direct and material effect on the Passenger Facility Charge
Program occurred. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence about the
County's compliance with those requirements and performing such other procedures,
as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit
provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our audit does not provide a legal
determination of the County's compliance with those requirements.
In our opinion, the County complied, in all material respects, with the requirements
referred to above that are applicable to its Passenger Facility Charge Program for the
annual period and each quarterly period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016.
Internal Control Over Compliance
Management of the County is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective
internal control over compliance with the requirements of laws and regulations
applicable to the Passenger Facility Charge Program. In planning and performing
our audit, we considered the County’s internal control over compliance with
requirements that could have a direct and material effect on the Passenger Facility
Charge Program in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of
expressing our opinion on compliance but not for the purpose of expressing an
opinion on the effectiveness of internal control over compliance. Accordingly, we do
not express an opinion on the effectiveness of County’s internal control over
compliance.
20
A deficiency in internal control over compliance exists when the design or operation of a control over
compliance does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned
functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of the
Passenger Facility Charge Program on a timely basis.
A material weakness in internal control over compliance is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies,
in internal control over compliance, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
noncompliance with a type of compliance requirement of the Passenger Facility Charge Program will not
be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis.
Our consideration of internal control over compliance was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and would not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control that might
be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses. We did not identify any deficiencies in internal control
over compliance that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist
that have not been identified.
This report is intended solely for the information of management, the Board of Supervisors, the U.S.
Federal Aviation Administration, and the airline parties operating at the Airport and it is not intended to be,
and should not be, used by anyone other than these specified parties.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL
OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING AND ON COMPLIANCE AND OTHER
MATTERS BASED ON AN AUDIT OF THE SCHEDULE OF PASSENGER
FACILITY CHARGE REVENUES AND EXPENSES PERFORMED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT AUDITING STANDARDS
Board of Supervisors
County of San Luis Obispo
San Luis Obispo, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in
the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits
contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States, the Schedule of Passenger Facility Charge Revenues and
Expenses (Schedule) of the County of San Luis Obispo (County), for the annual
period and each quarterly period from July 1, 2015 to June 30, 2016, and have
issued our report thereon dated March 22, 2017.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the Schedule, we considered the County’s
internal control over financial reporting (internal control) relating to the Schedule to
determine the audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the
purpose of expressing our opinions on the Schedule, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the County’s internal control relating to
the Schedule. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the
County’s internal control relating to the Schedule.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does
not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their
assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely
basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in
internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material
misstatement of the entity's financial schedule will not be prevented, or detected and
corrected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination
of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet
important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first
paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal
control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these
limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that
we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses may exist
that have not been identified.
22
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Schedule is free from material
misstatement, we performed tests of the County’s compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations,
contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on
the determination of financial schedule amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with
those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be
reported under Government Auditing Standards.
Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance
and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the County's internal
control or on compliance relating to the Schedule. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in
accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the County’s internal control and
compliance relating to the Schedule. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other
purpose.

2015-02:
Criteria:
Passenger Facility Charge Audit Guide For Public Agencies Section 158.63 requires that the public
agency provide quarterly reports to carriers collecting Airport Passenger Facility Charge (PFC) revenues
for the public agency, with a copy to the appropriate Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airports office.
Condition:
During our review of the County of San Luis Obispo (the County) June 30, 2015 PFC Quarterly Report to
the FAA, we noted that the report was submitted on October 3, 2015, which is after the one month

following the calendar quarter or other period agreed to by the public agency and collecting carrier.
Cause:
The report was not submitted timely.
Effect:
Failure to meet the Passenger Facility Charge Audit Guide requirements could lead the County to be out
of compliance with the FAA and potentially receive fines or other penalties.
Recommendation:
We recommend the County submit all required PFC Quarterly Reports in a timely manner.
Management Response/Corrective Action Plan:
Management agrees with the recommendation and corrective action was taken to ensure this does not
happen in the future.
Current Year Status:
Implemented.
