OSBORNE, ROBBINS & BUHLER, P.L.L.C. Certified Public Accountants 4527 South 2300 East, Suite 201 • Salt Lake City, Utah 84117-4480 • Phone: (801)308-0220 • Fax: (801)274-8589 November 1, 2023 To the Board of Trustees Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation We have audited the financial statements of the governmental activities and the general fund of Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation (the Foundation), a component unit of Salt Lake City Corporation for the year ended June 30, 2023. Professional standards require that we provide you with information about our responsibilities under generally accepted auditing standards and Government Auditing Standards, as well as certain information related to the planned scope and timing of our audit. We have communicated such information in our letter to you dated June 26, 2023. Professional standards also require that we communicate to you the following information related to our audit. Significant Audit Matters Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. The significant accounting policies used by the Foundation are described in Note A to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted, and the application of existing policies was not changed during 2023. We noted no transactions entered into by the Foundation during the year for which there is a lack of authoritative guidance or consensus. All significant transactions have been recognized in the financial statements in the proper period. Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most sensitive estimates affecting the financial statements were: Management's estimate of the net pension liability is based on information provided to Salt Lake City Corporation by Utah Retirement Systems (URS). Salt Lake City Corporation (the City) disseminates that information to provide the Foundation with its appropriate share of the City's total pension information. The City's net pension liability was calculated by actuaries hired by URS, and details about it and the related deferred inflows and outflows of resources were included in the URS annual report as of December 31, 2022. We traced the information to the URS annual report, as well as to specific other data provided by URS to the Center. We also reviewed the City's allocation of the information provided by the URS to the Foundation. We also noted that URS engaged its auditor to issue a Service Organization Controls (SOC 1) Type 2 report on the design and operating effectiveness regarding census data maintained by URS. This report was intended to meet the needs of the participating employers and their auditors in evaluating the effectiveness of the controls at URS on the URS financial statement assertions. We noted that the opinion of the URS auditors in the SOC 1 Type 2 report was unqualified. The sensitivity of this estimate is described in Note G to the financial statements and the 6.85% assumed investment rate of return is comprised of an inflation rate of 2.5% and a real return of 4.35%. Management's estimate of the depreciation methods and useful lives of the Foundation's property and equipment is based on management's determination of the rate at which the usefulness of the property is expected to deteriorate. We have compared the lives and methods used by the Foundation to independent expectations we have established and have concluded they are reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole. The financial statement disclosures are neutral, consistent, and clear. Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit. Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit, other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Management has corrected all such misstatements. In addition, none of the misstatements detected as a result of audit procedures and corrected by management were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the financial statements taken as a whole. Disagreements with Management For purposes of this letter, a disagreement with management is a financial accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit. Management Representations We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation letter dated November 1, 2023. Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an accounting principle to the Foundation's financial statements or a determination of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other accountants. Other Audit Findings or Issues We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the Foundation's auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information We applied certain limited procedures to the Management's Discussion and Analysis, Budgetary Comparison, and Pension Information, which are required supplementary information (RSI) that supplements the basic financial statements. Our procedures consisted of inquiries of management regarding 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 did not audit the RSI and do not express an opinion or provide any assurance on the RSI. Restriction on Use This information is intended solely for the use of the board of trustees and management of the Foundation and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Projects will be structured around major themes such as: • water conservation • air quality • agriculture • industry • environmental justice • ecology of the Lake • social justice-including indigenous rights The goal of the project is to educate and inspire both residents and visitors to identify possible solutions and act on a local and national level. Projects will occur in both urban settings and some site-specific installations.We have established initial partners throughout City Departments,local nonprofits, artists, and are working to create partnerships with local tribal communities, scientists, diverse local community members and others. Executive Background: On June 21, 2023,the Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation Board of Directors unanimously approved a Board-Designated Operating Reserve Policy.The purpose of this policy was to establish written guidance from the Board to the Staff of the Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation regarding the expenditure of cash on hand referred to as"the Reserve"which can cover both short-term and long-term funding shortfalls, gaps,unexpected/unbudgeted expenses, and other circumstances described in the policy. In the late summer of this year,the Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation submitted to Bloomberg Philanthropies for the project described above and were subsequently announced as the winner of a $1,000,00o grant.The proposed budget submitted in our application was bolstered by the inclusion of additional financial support,both monetary and in kind,from varied sources including private family foundations, corporations, and the Salt Lake City Arts Council Foundation Operating Reserve Fund. Request Summary: This document serves as our staffs official request to draw$150,000 from"the Reserve"to support our Bloomberg Philanthropies Public Art Challenge Grant Project, Wake: the Great Salt Lake. Project Budget: Several foundations have committed to supporting the project.With the committed funds,in- kind support from partner organizations and staff the total project budget is approximately$1.8 million.We have allocated$350,000 for grants to local/regional artists projects to support and uplift the artist community in Salt Lake City.

An analysis with a this logic applied to our currently approved FY24 budget would result in a recommended minimum balance of the Reserve fund as follows; $329,028.75 (25%) $394,834.50 (3o%), and$46o,640.25 (35%)•It is the recommendation of the staff that the calibration of our Reserve guaranteed minimum be$46o,640.25 or 35% of operating expenses less Salt Lake City Division related expenses. Our FY23 Financial Audit's Financial Analysis of the Foundation's Net Position shows a total net position of$853,839 as of June 30, 2023. If the staff recommended minimum Reserve were maintained in relationship with our current Net Position as described in our audit, $393,198.75 Would be available for draw.As stated in our Operating Reserve Policy, "Determination of need requires analysis of the sufficiency of the current level offunds, the availability of any other sources of funds before using reserves, and evaluation of the time period for which the funds will be required and replenished." As a staff, we recommend the allocation of 15o,000 of Reserve Funds to be dedicated to our Bloomberg Philanthropies Public Art Challenge Grant, Wake: the Great Salt Lake. We feel this project represents a unique opportunity for our Reserve funds to be leveraged for a one-time expense that will have a monumental impact on our Arts and Cultural Industries while also not creating a funding cliff or gap in funding for existing priorities. Of course, should any sudden or unforeseen circumstances negatively impact the financial position of the Arts Council, the general operations of the organization and the core functions of our programs would be prioritized over this project. The financial impact is described below; FY23 Audit Net Position("the Reserve") $853,839.00 Bloomberg Public Art Challenge Grant Funds ($150,000.00) Projected Net Position $703,839.00 StafRecommended Reserve Minimum Calibration(35%) $460,640.00 Excess to Reserve Minimum Calibration $243,199.00 Finally,because this draw of Reserve Funds is beyond the minimum calibration requirement of the Operating Reserve Policy,there is no stated requirement that the funds be returned to the Reserve.Additionally,the current projection of our Net Position with this draw accounted for would result in approximately 54%of existing expenses minus Division related expenses being accounted for in the Reserve,nearly 20% above our minimum expectations.

Certified Public Accountants 4527 South 2300 East, Suite 201 • Salt Lake City, Utah 84117-4480 • Phone: (801)308-0220 • Fax: (801)274-8589 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 Trustees Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United State 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 and the general fund of Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation (the Foundation), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2023, and the related notes to the financial statements, which collectively comprise the Foundation's basic financial statements and have issued our report thereon dated November 1, 2023. Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the Foundation's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing 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 Foundation's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Foundation'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. We did identify certain deficiencies in internal control, described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses that we consider to be significant deficiencies. Report on Compliance and Other Matters As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Foundation'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 financial statements. 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. Salt Lake Arts Council Foundation's Response to Findings The Foundation's response to the findings identified in our audit is described in the accompanying schedule of findings and responses. The Foundation's response was not subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and, accordingly, we express no opinion on it. Purpose of this Report The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity's internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose November 1, 2023 SCHEDULE OF FINDINGS AND RESPONSES Internal Control over Financial Reporting Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls, including monitoring, and for the fair presentation in the financial statements of financial position and results of operations, including the notes to the financial statements, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). At times management may choose to outsource certain accounting functions due to cost or training considerations. Such accounting functions and service providers must be governed by the control policies and procedures of the Foundation. Management is as responsible for outsourced functions performed by a service provider as it would be if its personnel performed such function. Specifically, management is responsible for management decisions and functions; for designating an individual with suitable skill, knowledge, or experience to oversee any outsourced services; and for evaluating the adequacy and results of those services and accepting responsibility for them. As part of the audit, management requested us to prepare a draft of the Foundation's financial statements, including the related notes to the financial statements. Management reviewed, approved, and accepted responsibility for those financial statements prior to their issuance; however, management does not currently have the ability to 1) evaluate the completeness of the financial statement disclosures, 2) recognize instances when reclassification of financial statement items may be required by GAAP, or 3)evaluate the appropriateness of information with regard to GASB Statement No. 68 as provided by service organizations. The absence of the ability to perform these control procedures is considered a significant deficiency because the potential exists that a more than inconsequential but less than material misstatement of the financial statements could occur and not be prevented or detected by the Foundation's internal control. The existence of this significant deficiency is already known to management and represents a conscious decision by management or those charged with governance to accept that degree of risk because of cost or other considerations. Management is responsible for making decisions concerning costs and the related benefits. We are responsible to communicate significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in accordance with professional standards regardless of management's decisions. Recommendation We recommend that Management and those charged with governance evaluate the ongoing risks associated with the above finding and compare it to the costs of additional training and or staff required to mitigate or eliminate those risks. Management Response We have considered the costs and benefits associated with addressing the risks noted in the above finding and have determined the costs to be prohibitive. We are comfortable with the risk levels associated with this finding.
