Following is a list of fund names and descriptions from comprehensive annual financial reports. Required: Indicate which of the following are fiduciary funds. If not a fiduciary fund, identify which type of activities. Tri-Centennial Fund. Accounts for money raised or contributed by several local area governments and other organizations. The purpose is to ensure availability of resources to celebrate the United States Tri-Centennial in 2076. Perpetual Care Fund.

Money must be remitted periodically to the local school district, a legally separate government that is not a component unit of the city. Cultural Services and Facilities Fund. Accounts for revenues received from the city's Lincoln Center performing arts facility, the city museum, and subsidies from the General Fund. All of which are used to promote cultural activities for city residents. Payroll Fund. The city has established a fund in which all payroll deductions are reported. Telephone Commissions Fund. The city collects commissions on pay telephones used by jail inmates. The city uses the funds collected to provide inmates such benefits as library resources and fitness equipment. Block Grant Fund. The state receives federal funds for the homeless that it passes through to local not-for-profit organizations. The only responsibility the state has is to contribute an additional amount of funds (match) to the federal grant. Health Benefits Fund. The county has agreed to pay a portion of the health insurance premiums for employees when they retire. Contributions for the benefit are paid into this fund. Unclaimed Property Fund. The state has established a fund to account for abandoned and unclaimed property. The property is held in the fund for 10 years. If a legal claimant to the property is not found within the 10-year time period, the property reverts to the state.
