Purple People Bridge starts GoFundMe for paint job Kentucky teachers hold signs and react emotionally at the hearing for House Bill 525 at the Kentucky Capitol on Feb. 28. Teachers have been protesting multiple bills in Frankfort. House Bill 525 would change the make-up of the Teachers Retirement System Board of Trustees, while House Bill 205 would create tax breaks for those who donate to private school scholarships. Teachers unions broadly oppose both issues. House Bill 525 was planned for a vote Monday, but that vote was delayed. PHOTOS BY ALTON STRUPP (LEFT) AND MATT STONE/COURIER JOURNAL

Owners of the Purple People Bridge are asking for money to keep the bridge a deep shade of purple instead of a faded hue. The pedestrian-only bridge that spans the Ohio River from Cincinnati to Newport was opened as a railroad bridge in 1872. Owner Newport Southbank Bridge Company (NSBC), a nonprofi t, started a GoFundMe page to raise $100,000 of a $1 million capital campaign goal. The funds would help pay to repaint the bridge. “We launched the GoFundMe to encourage the public to support the Purple People Bridge, especially those people who regularly use the bridge for their commute, for leisure, or for fun,” said NSBC president Jack Moreland. “The Purple People Bridge is such a unique and meaningful landmark in our region, but we need to paint it and maintain it to keep it that way.” About 71,000 people run, walk, bicycle or skate across the bridge each month. Popular fundraisers including “Party on the Purple” and the Labor Day fi reworks fundraiser “Boom on the Bridge” do not provide enough money to repaint and maintain the bridge alone, according to a news release from the owner. “Many people still think that the Purple People Bridge is owned by the state or the city, but it’s not; it’s a privately owned structure and it has been for nearly 20 years,” said Moreland. “It is crucial that our organization raise the funds needed to repaint, repair, and maintain this important pedestrian link between our communities so that it can remain open to the public.”

Northern Kentucky public school superintendents and some students are rallying against a proposed bill they say would cut funding for public school while encouraging funding for private schools. Seventeen school districts were represented at a press conference Monday in Cold Spring at the Northern Kentucky Educational Cooperative. All the superintendents were opposed to Kentucky House Bill 205, now under consideration by the Kentucky General Assembly. “HB 205 would allow donors to claim large tax breaks for giving scholarships to private school students,” a press release from organizers said. “The legislation would not only cut per-pupil

funding for public schools, but also allow donors to dictate which schools benefi ted from their tax dollars.” Northern Kentucky Cooperative for Educational Services, a group made up of the Northern Kentucky districts, said in a press release, the tax breaks would drain state coff ers of money. “If you have a child in public school, HB205 is an attack on you and your child,” said David A. Rust, superintendent of Campbell County Schools. “It will deprive dollars to provide your child a quality education.” Top Republican lawmakers are throwing their support behind the controversial bill, signaling the measure may squeak through in the fi nal days of Kentucky’s legislative session — a move that could remobilize Bluegrass teachers fresh off a massive “sickout.” House Speaker David Osborne, a Republican from Prospect, signed on as

co-sponsor of House Bill 205 olast Wednesday. He joins two other members of Republican leadership in supporting the legislation, including bill sponsor Rep. John “Bam” Carney, majority fl oor leader. The bill, which had its fi rst reading Friday, would create a statewide private school scholarship tax credit program. Supporters say it would give more at-risk kids access to education tailored for their needs. But opponents, including the Kentucky Education Association, have warned the tax breaks would drain the state’s revenues and hurt public schools.

day morning. Her father took her to the doctor to get it checked out – an X-ray said it was fi ne. They went to Columbus for a cheer competition. When Lilliana was warming up, her coach came out and told Schalck something was wrong. “Coach says she’s kinda out of sorts, things defi nitely not normal,” he said. “So we call a life squad, took her to the ER and things quickly degraded there – to the ICU and in about two hours she was gone.” Her symptoms were some hamstring pain, numbness in her hands – they were cold – and she just felt weak. “Maybe she was dehydrated? Pinched nerve? I thought dehydrated, fi rst thought. And when you saw all the doctors come to you, you had to think what is going on, right? All this for this, what is going on? And
the liaison took me back and was like in a very short time, she said is there somebody you should call and I said for what reason and she said this is pretty serious and I said you gotta be kidding me,” Schalck said. He said her heart stopped twice in the ER and a total of four times. He was with her at the end. “We went from waiting for her to perform at 5:50 p.m. to holding her hand and they announced that she had passed at 7:40 – the only thing I can say was, ‘What the hell just happened? What happened? How can this be?’ Just gone,” he said. The cause of death was still pending the results of an autopsy when this article was originally published. Lilliana is asurvived by her mother and a 20-yearold sister. Enquirer media partner Fox19 provided this report.

voucher program in favor of tax credits, supporters say House Bill 205 doesn’t cross constitutional bounds. The proposed legislation would encourage Kentuckians — through tax breaks — to donate money to organizations that provide private school scholarships. In turn, those organizations would have more money to dole out to students. The bill would create $25 million in tax credits up for grabs in the fi rst year of the program, allowing individuals and businesses who donate to qualifying scholarship organizations to subtract up to $1 million from their state tax bills on a dollarfor-dollar basis. Bill supporters say the program would give Kentucky’s most vulnerable students more choice in their schooling, pointing to a provision of the bill that gives priority to kids with special needs, in foster care or from lowincome households. Proponents argue that

a possibility. Winkler called the the tax credit program a system of “backdoor vouchers for private schools” that would steer millions of dollars away from Kentucky public education. “That is a disservice to the more than 600,000 students in our public schools,” she said. “It is bad legislation no matter who is co-sponsoring it, and KEA will continue to actively oppose it.” The tax credit bill has not yet received a legislative hearing. Nationally, private school scholarship programs based on tax credits have been advanced by school-choice supporters as a way to avoid thorny constitutional issues. In Kentucky, the state constitution prohibits the government from directly handing over tax revenue raised for educational purposes to “any church, sectarian or denominational school.” By forgoing a traditional

Last week, Dan Schalck did things no parent should ever have to do. He picked out his daughter’s burial plot, worked on her funeral arrangements, and selected an outfi t to bury her in. His 13-year-old daughter Lilliana died suddenly Saturday, Feb. 23. Since then it’s been a whirlwind of sadness, questions, and love from the community. To say Lilliana was a good competitive cheerleader would be an understatement. She was what they call a fl yer Schalck – and boy could she fl y. She was an eighth-grader who, for the fi rst time in school history, made the varsity cheer leading team at Highlands High School. She was a happy kid. She lived with her father, loved pizza, the color blue, and was just starting to get interested in boys – maybe. She had a favorite song and she knew what she wanted to be – an elementary school teacher. “She had two of her friends – they were going to go to school, come back to Fort Thomas, teach at Moyer and live next door,” said Schalck. “They had it planned.” But life can change in an instant – or in this case, two hours. “I can’t get my head around it at all,” Schalck said. “No discoloration, no tiredness, no weakness, no confusion – her grades all straight As across the board. Fit, athletic, no indication and of course I’m racking my brain. Did I miss something?” Her hamstring was bothering her a little that Satur-

wealthy families already have a choice when it comes to their kids’ education: They can either aff ord to pay for private school tuition or can move to an area with high-performing public schools. The scholarship program would level the playing fi eld for students from disadvantaged backgrounds, supporters say. The Kentucky bill must still be heard by the House Appropriations and Revenue Committee before it could be sent to the House fl oor for a full vote. An impact statement produced last year for a similar bill estimated the program would cost the state $50 million by its fourth year. House Bill 205 doesn’t require students to have already attended a public school in order to qualify for a scholarship. And after the fi rst year of the program, students who have already received a scholarship or are siblings of a scholarship recipient would get fi rst priority when the funds are divvied. The push for a Kentucky tax credit program comes as the Trump administration attempts to shoulder through a federal version. Under a proposal unveiled this week by Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, $5 billion in annual federal tax credits would be up for grabs, with states getting to choose which students would be eligible for scholarships and where the funds could be used. A Republican-backed bill for the plan would allow the funds to be used for special education services, apprenticeships and tutoring, in addition to private education.

Sip on these to help heal seasonal ailments Hot ginger tea with a “kick”
Chilled apple ginger sparklers
Lemons contain vitamin C, which may decrease the strength of a cold, or flu. Cayenne helps with mucus and congestion. As mentioned, ginger is anti-inflammatory and calms the tummy.
As Mom said “an apple a day keeps the doctor away.” I’m thinking that applies to apple cider, too!
Ingredients 2 cups water 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, unpeeled, chopped Lemon juice to taste Pinch of cayenne pepper powder optional Honey or sweetener to taste Instructions
Pick your remedy: golden milk, hot ginger tea with a kick or chilled apple ginger sparklers. RITA HEIKENFELD/FOR THE COMMUNITY PRESS
Bring water to a boil. Add ginger and lemon juice. Remove from heat. Cover and steep 5-10 minutes. Add cayenne. Strain and sweeten. Tip Ginger and lemons freeze well.
Rita’s Kitchen Rita Heikenfeld
Well, one thing’s for sure - the cold and fl u season is still with us. Today I’m sharing some hydrating, healing drinks that can help make sniffl es and aches go away or at least more tolerable. My newest fave is the wildly popular golden milk, made with ginger and turmeric. Turmeric is the spice that puts the yellow color in golden milk. (I use turmeric to color Easter eggs a brilliant gold, as well. More on that later).
The ginger tea is a classic, warming beverage. Need a chilled drink to bring the heat down? Try the apple ginger sparkler. Honey and infants According to the CDC, infants under the age of 1 should not consume honey. For more information, check out their site: www.cdc.gov/botulism/ prevention.html.

Riverside Marketplace: deal possible to take over grocery Chris Mayhew Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
DAYTON, Ky. – Will the city lose Riverside Market? “We have not decided to close,” said Riverside’s owner Nick Vaghela on Feb. 27. But the grocery is closing its deli and possibly eliminating a position, Vaghela said. “It’s just people talking and rumors,” he said of an online article stating the store was closing. Longtime Riverside Market customer Jennifer Mullins ran across the city’s main street from the Dollar Store with two children in tow Feb. 27. She didn’t go into the market. “They stopped fi lling the shelves,” Mullins said. The store was a good place to get deli meat or last-minute essentials, she said.

“Obviously it’s a huge asset to the community to keep the local grocery store,” he said. Richmond, Kentucky-based 6th Ave. Marketplace LLC kept the Riverside Marketplace name when it purchased the Dayton grocery March 21, 2018, from Riverside Marketplace, according to Campbell County property records. Riverside Marketplace grocery stores in Ludlow and California are not owned by the same company and remain open. The Campbell County city of more than 5,000 residents on the Ohio River expects to have 500 to 600 new potential customers for a grocer soon. Giff en said Manhattan Harbour is about 150 yards away from the grocery. The riverfront development is bringing 350 luxury apartments to the city in the next 18 months. The development already has about eight single-family homes constructed, he said. A four-bedroom, three-and-a-half bath Manhattan Harbour house hit the market in February at just under $1.25 million. “I think the owners understand it could be a win for them,” Giff en said of Manhattan Harbour’s growth.
Meet Cycleboat, a pedal wagon for the Ohio River Sarah Brookbank Cincinnati Enquirer
Here’s what you need to know
Pedal wagon tours of Over-theRhine are no longer the hip new thing. A new company coming to Greater Cincinnati this summer has a gamechanger. Cincinnati Cycleboat takes the idea of a pedal wagon to the Ohio River, letting groups of six to 16 tour the riverfront in a new way. The Cincinnati Cycleboat will be launching out of Dayton, Kentucky over Memorial Day weekend. The comany provides the boat, the pedals, a captain and a fi rst mate. Guest bring their own snacks, music and drinks (yes, that includes alcohol) and paddle down the river. Co-owner Nick Blaszczyk said Cincinnati is the perfect place for a cycle boat. And he would know: Blaszczyk has

Kentucky “like never before.” “Cincinnati is great. The Ohio River itself is beautiful. (Cincinnati) is up and coming and it’s just a fun city,” Blaszczyk said.
Cincinnati Cycleboat was founded by Blaszczyk, his wife Jodie, and partners Callie and John Moylan. While Blaszczyk doesn’t have Cincinnati roots, he said he’s had friends from the area and he thinks Cincinnati is the next big thing. “We’re excited to grow here and grow with the city,” Blaszczyk said. Right now the group anticipates 250 to 300 bookings this year. Up north, they have two boats and one day hope to have at least two in Cincinnati. The boat will be docked at Manhattan Harbour Yacht Club in Dayton and the two-hour tour will also have a pit stop at Rivertowne Marina. So why the cycle boat over the pedal wagon? “The bottom line is there is nothing else you can do with six to 16 people that brings them together that lets you be this close and intimate,” Blaszczyk said.

Sports CAMELS RETURN TO STATE James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
Editor’s note: Information and statistics refl ect this article’s original publication date: March 4. Visit Cincinnati.com for up-to-date Kentucky sports coverage. Campbell County rallied from an eight-point halftime defi cit to defeat George Rogers Clark 61-49 in the 10th Region fi nal at Mason County Fieldhouse. Campbell advances to the Sweet 16 for the second year in a row and fourth out of the last six. The Camels (29-4) will face undefeated John Hardin (35-0) out of the Fifth Region 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. Three of Campbell’s four losses have come to Kentucky teams by a total of nine points, including by six to Walton-Verona. At halftime of the regional fi nal, head coach Aric Russell wrote the word “Relax” on the whiteboard in the locker room. And while he probably wasn’t thinking of the classic song by Frankie Goes to Hollywood at that moment, the Camels took that word to heart and now they’re going to Rupp. Campbell dominated the second half. Seniors Reid Jolly and Drew Wilson made the Cardinals stress out in the third quarter, combining for 20 points. Jolly led the Camels with 22 points and 13 rebounds, and averaged 24 ppg in the tournament. Wilson scored 15, going 5 of 7 from 3-point range. Tanner Lawrence, a standout football lineman, added 10 points. Noah Wirth and Jordan Gross added seven points each. “We panicked a little bit,” Russell said in the Maysville Ledger-Independent. “Things weren’t going, they were tightening up on defense, had a really good gameplan on Reid (Jolly) and we panicked. So at halftime I wrote relax on the board in real big letters and said, ‘Relax, we’re fi ne. We’re down eight, just come out and play like we play.’ We decided to pick them up full court and try to force the issue a little bit and kind of get some momentum going and that seemed to be what helped us.” Russell refl ected on his program’s achievement in the interview. “You got to have good kids, got to believe in the system. Our staff is incredible, two or three of those guys can be head coaches themselves. We’re just blessed. God has blessed me in a lot of ways, beautiful family, great job and a really good school to teach at. This just doesn’t happen without everybody being involved and everybody being invested in it. Just couldn’t be more proud of our community.” Campbell and Walton join Covington Catholic in the Sweet 16, marking the fi rst time Northern Kentucky has had three teams in the tournament in the same year.
Campbell County is back in the Sweet 16 for the second year in row, led by senior Reid Jolly (11), seen here in the Elite Eight game last year in Lexington. GEOFF BLANKENSHIP FOR THE ENQUIRER
Glory Days: Newport set standard for girls hoops James Weber Cincinnati Enquirer USA TODAY NETWORK
NEWPORT – Donna Murphy didn’t win a state championship at Newport High School, but she had plenty of wins during her time with the girls basketball program that resonate today. Just getting the chance at a state championship was a victory in itself in 1975, when the Newport Wildcats went to Richmond for the fi rst Kentucky High School Athletic Association girls Sweet 16 in the modern format. The KHSAA had sponsored girls bas-
ketball championships from 1920-32, then brought it back after the federal law known as Title IX mandated equal opportunities for females in education. “I knew in my sophomore year that Title IX had come into eff ect and that meant women would be able to receive college scholarships,” Murphy said. “Then they renewed the girls state tournament in 1975 so we were pretty excited about trying to get there. We practiced that whole summer against guys just to get ready to go. We knew that was going to be an opportunity to showcase our talents as a basketball team.”
Murphy led Newport as the Ninth Region’s fi rst champion in the new format. Their fi rst game in the Sweet 16 came against Russell in March of 1975. Murphy scored 42 points in Newport’s 58-42 win. She was 21-of-44 from the fi eld and had 23 rebounds. The 42 points set a standard for the tournament that lasted until 1996, and is still second place all-time. Newport fell by one, 51-50, to Butler in the quarterfi nals despite leading by 19 at halftime. Murphy had 25 and Valerie Owens led Butler with 20. Butler went on to win the championship that season,
and led by Owens, reached the fi nals in 1976. Murphy forged a friendship with Owens and other rivals, and fondly remembers the good times of that tournament over the tough loss. “That was a long time ago,’ Murphy said. “We were the fi rst team to get to go from this region. I met my best friend playing against Butler, Valerie Owens. We’ve been friends ever since and her daughter is my godchild. There are some very good memories about that trip. It See NEWPORT , Page 2B

was all about friendship, playing basketball and having fun.” Murphy was named the fi rst-ever Miss Basketball in 1976, and has an award named after her that is concurrent with the annual Miss Basketball presentation by the Kentucky Lions Eye Foundation. During her last season at Newport, Murphy averaged 35 points and 20 rebounds. She was also the 2A state high jump champion in 1974 and named all-region in volleyball before graduating fi fth in her class. She played at Morehead State University and graduated magna cum laude twice, a bachelor of arts in communications/ journalism with a teacher certifi cation, and a master of health education in counseling. Murphy was also the fi rst female athlete to have her jersey retired at both Morehead State and Newport. She was the fi rst forward drafted in the Women’s Professional Basketball League in 1980 and went on to play for the St. Louis Streak. She has held coaching positions at the collegiate level and also coached at several other levels. Murphy is a professor at Bluegrass Community and Technical College in Lexington. Murphy and her teammates were inducted into the Newport Athletic Hall of Fame Feb. 1. That included head coach Cindy Schlosser, who was inducted separately for her coaching in hoops and volleyball. “We played against boys to make us better,” Schlosser said. “We would bring in some high school boys and scrimmage against them because they were stronger.

younger, renew those friendships,” Murphy said. “Some of us haven’t seen each other since we graduated. We all got along. We all cared about what we did and we all cared about each other. We didn’t have any issues. We were there to have fun and support each other.” Newport also inducted the last two boys Ninth

Region champions, from 1962 and 2010. Ronald Vories was inducted posthumously as a contributor. The girls team had many chances to reminisce about how far their sport has progressed in 44 years. “It’s about equity,” Murphy said. “When you have girls teams, you have to make sure everybody has equal opportunity to play and enjoy themselves and put their skills on display. You do it because it’s right, not because you have to. Title IX forced people to recognize that fact.” Glory Days is a regular feature of Enquirer Media celebrating key moments, personalities and teams in Cincinnati’s rich prep sports history.

Northern Kentucky Chamber to host Eggs ‘N Issues: Talent Attraction & Retention Strategy
Northern Kentucky Chamber hosts workshop: HR is the Business On Thursday, March 14, the Northern Kentucky Chamber of Commerce (NKY Chamber) invites business leaders, managers, and supervisors, as well as human resource professionals to attend: “HR is the Business.” Led by Steve Browne, Vice President of HR for LaRosa’s, the presentation will focus on how human resource leaders and professionals are being challenged to identify the business case and value of the initiatives they suggest, and how they can make their executives champions of those programs. Browne has more than 23 years of human resources leadership across several companies and is a known innovator of integrating initiatives into the core company strategies. He will discuss how to partner with fi nance departments on key measures to justify investments, how to sell the value of human resources initiatives, how to tie fi nancial outcomes to improving core human resources outcomes such as retention and recruiting, and ideas to engage the leadership team on integrated human resources strategies. “Human resource professionals are being challenged by their companies to prove return on investment,” said Leisa Mulcahy, Vice President of Workforce. “That’s why we are so excited to have Steve Browne present on ways industry professionals can prove the worth of their initiatives.” The “HR is the Business” session will take place at Hilton Cincinnati Airport (7373 Turfway Road, Florence) from 7:30 to 10 a.m. SHRM and HRCI credit is available. A light breakfast will be served. The cost is $25 for NKY Chamber members, $40 for future NKY Chamber members, and $20 for NKYP Passport holders.

NEW YORK TIMES CROSSWORD PUZZLE
ANSWERS ON PAGE 5B
No. 0303 D.J.’S SPINNIN’
BY TONY ORBACH AND ANDREA CARLA MICHAELS / EDITED BY WILL SHORTZ Tony Orbach is a construction manager and musician in Upper Montclair, N.J. Andrea Carla Michaels is a professional namer (of companies and products) in San Francisco. They worked together on this puzzle by email — bouncing theme ideas, crossword fill and clues back and forth. Tony sneaked in Andrea’s favorite word at 75Down. (Note her initials.) This is their second collaboration for The Times. — W.S.

Region’s fi rst high school athlete injury-prevention program in Northern Kentucky The Orthopaedic Institute at St. Elizabeth, a partnership between St. Elizabeth Healthcare, St. Elizabeth Physicians and OrthoCincy Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine, has launched an injury prevention program, the region’s fi rst data driven database of injuries sustained by high school student athletes that can be broken down by school, team, sport and gender. The data collected will help athletic trainers develop programs to stop similar injuries before they happen. As injuries occur, athletic trainers –

provided at no cost by St. Elizabeth and stationed at 23 high schools across Campbell, Kenton, Grant and Boone counties – input the data into the prevention program. At the end of each sports season, they will analyze the data to identify trends and determine causes of injuries. This will inform the program that they prepare for coaches and other school athletic personnel to prevent similar injuries in future seasons. “By doing extensive data analyses now, we are improving outcomes and preventing injuries for our student athletes in the near future,” said Dr. Michael Miller, Medical Director, of St. Elizabeth Sports Medicine. “Our athletic trainers are an extension of St. Elizabeth; by being ‘right here’ in the schools, they are helping to keep our young athletes out of the hospital and in the game.” “Our injury prevention program is an example of organizations partnering together to build a healthy community by providing the highest quality of care at the most personalized level for our student athletes,” said Dr. Adam V. Metzler, orthopaedic surgeon, from OrthoCincy

Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine. “Real, localized data is invaluable to creating programs that work – and that’s exactly what we have at our fi ngertips.” The student athlete injury data will only be accessible to medical personnel affi liated with the Orthopaedic Institute. St. Elizabeth and OrthoCincy introduced their injury prevention program to the athletic trainer programs at Ryle and Highlands high schools a couple of years ago. The results – Ryle football experienced a signifi cant decrease in surgeries, and Highlands experienced a dramatic decrease in ankle sprains – inspired the expansion of the data collection program to the other 21 high schools. Currently, St. Elizabeth’s athletic trainers are analyzing 2018-19 fall sports data. “You can’t play a game without a solid off ense and defense, but the health and safety of our athletes requires being on the off ense at all times, and that’s exactly what this program did for us,” said Jim Demler, athletic director at Ryle High School.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT Legal Notice: A copy of the complete auditor’s report is available at the City of Highland Heights City Building for public inspection during normal business hours. Citizens may obtain a complete copy of the report, including financial statements and supplemental information; citizens will be charged a duplication fee of .25c (cents) per page. Copies of the financial statement prepared in accordance with KRS 424.220 are available to the public at no cost. Mayor and the City Council City of Highland Heights Highland Heights, Kentucky Report on the Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City Highland Heights, Kentucky, as of and for the year ended June 30, 2018, 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 or 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. Auditors’ Responsibility Our responsibility is to express opini0ns on these financial statements 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 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 auditors’ judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the 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 of the 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 of the 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. Opinion In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the respective financial position of the governmental activities, each major fund, and the aggregate remaining fund information of the City of Highland Heights, Kentucky, as of June 30, 2018, and the respective changes in financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Emphasis of a Matter-Implementation of New GASB Accounting Standards As discussed in Notes 9 and 12 to the financial statements, effective July 1, 2017, the City adopted Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 75, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Postemployment Benefits other Than Pensions (OPEB). Our opinions are not modified with respect to this matter. Other Matters Required Supplementary Information Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that the management’s discussion and analysis, budgetary comparison information, and pension and OPEB schedules on pages 3-9 and 32-43 be presented to supplement the basic financial statements. Such information, although not a part of the 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 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 Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated February 8, 2019, on our consideration of the City of Highland Heights, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. 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 City of Highland Heights, Kentucky’s internal control over financial reporting and compliance.
