SIGNED BOARD REPORTX��"���by the County Recorder for electronic recording, pursuant to Government Code Section
27397(c)(1) and to be effective July 1, 2010; and,
D) Direct the Auditor-Controller to establish a Restrictive Revenue account for the Electronic
Recording Delivery System ERDS) revenues and expenses.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The Monterey County Recorder's Office is responsible for examining and recording all documents
that deal with establishing ownership of land in Monterey County. This includes the recording of
title documents, notes, and home loan payoffs by homeowners, title companies, mortgage
companies and government agencies involved in real estate transactions. Until recently, traditional
technology required that the recording process involve the delivery and recordation of only original
paper versions of documents. The requested actions would facilitate Monterey County to now take
advantage of technological advances in Electronic Recordation of Property related documents. The
requested actions would facilitate Monterey County to now take advantage of technological
advances in Electronic Recordation of Property related documents: Type 1 instruments, which
affect a right, title or interest in real property and shall be delivered as digitized electronic records
and Type 2 instruments, such as Reconvenyances and Substitutions of Trustee which may be
delivered as digitized or digital electronic documents.
ERDS
The Electronic Recording Delivery Act ERDA) of 2004 Govt. Code Sec. 27390-27399)
established a local option for electronic filing of real property instruments. ERDA requires the
Attorney General to certify and provide oversight for any electronic recording delivery system;
the Department of Justice DO J) has been assigned the responsibility for the implementing the
2004 ERDA.
Regulations to administer the ERDS have been established under Title 11, Division 1, Chapter 18,
Articles 1 through 9 of the California Code of Regulations. The regulations define guidelines,
procedures and standards which shall ensure the security of an ERDS. Under the law, a county's
electronic recording delivery system must meet specified security standards and all persons with a
secure access role are required to undergo fingerprint criminal history checks.
To establish an electronic recording delivery system, the County Recorder must be authorized by
resolution of the Board of Supervisors and then obtain system certification from the state ERDS
Program. Certain title insurers, underwritten title companies, institutional lenders and local, state or
federal government agencies would then be allowed to use a certified county ERDS to send images
of original paper documents.
A local ERDS program would be a service to the taxpayers of Monterey County in expediting
the recording process as well as promoting a convenience to the recording public. It also helps
the Recorder's Office in recording documents more efficiently and permits advantages related to
the storage and retrieval of documents in the advances in technology that are resultant from the
recordation of those documents in electronic format.
CERTNA
The California Electronic Recording Transaction Network Authority CERTNA), a California
public entity established in July 2007, has standardized electronic recording of documents
across multiple member counties by creating an umbrella agency to develop, operate, and
maintain an ERDS. It is recommended that the Board adopt a resolution approving the

SIGNED BOARD REPORTX��"���County's participation in CERTNA and authorizing the Assessor-Recorder-County Clerk, or his
designee, to represent the County on the CERTNA Board of Directors. If adopted, the
Resolution will formally establish a cooperative and mutually beneficial relationship between
the County and CERTNA and to set forth the initial commitments of the County.
ELECTRONIC RECORDING FEES
Government Code section 27397(c)(1) authorizes the Recorder to impose a fee, up to $1.00, for
each real property instrument that is recorded by Monterey County. The fees collected may not
exceed the reasonable total costs of the ERDS system, review and approval of vendors and
potential authorized submitters, security testing, and reimbursement to the Attorney General for
regulation and oversight. It is recommended that the Board approve the proposed new $1.00
recording fee as an amendment to the County Master Fee Resolution, Article XIII in accordance
with state law. The requested effective date of the fee is July 1, 2010, to permit time for notice
to the public.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
County Counsel has reviewed the requested Resolutions as to form.
FINANCING:
The collection of fees authorized under this Resolution will reflect cost recovery increases only; the
requested fees, in fact, will not exceed the costs of services. The estimated annual fee to be paid to
the DOJ ERDS program is $4,200.00 and the estimated annual fee to be paid to CERTNA is
$42,000.00, which will decrease as more counties join the program. Approval of recommended
actions will have no impact on the General Fund.

We have audited the accompanying basic financial statements of the California Electronic Recording
Transaction Network Authority Authority), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2010, as listed in the
table of contents. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Authority's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these basic 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 basic financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the basic financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the basic financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
respective financial position of the Authority as of June 30, 2010, and the respective changes in financial
position and cash flows thereof for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated December 14,
2010, on our consideration of the Authority'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 the internal
control over financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in
accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be considered in assessing the results of
our audit.

�Management has omitted the management discussion and analysis MD&A) that accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America require to be presented to supplement the basic
financial statements. Such mission 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. Our opinion on the basic financial statements is not affected by this missing
information.

NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JUNE 30, 2010
NOTE 1  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. Reporting Entity
The California Electronic Recording Transaction Network Authority the Authority) was established July 1,
2007, as a unifying umbrella agency to coordinate the service desires of both the County of Kern and the
County of San Bernardino and enable certain lead counties to jointly develop, implement and support an
AB 578 compliance system to be known as the California Electronic Recording Transaction Network,
which will allow for the electronic recording of documents by multiple counties using variable back-end
systems. As of June 30, 2010, a total of nine counties had joined the Authority, including eight member
counties as the governing counties and one client county. The member counties are the Counties of
Kern, San Bernardino, Fresno, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, San Joaquin, and El Dorado. The County of
Merced joined the Authority as a client county. The governing Board of Directors of the Authority consists
of eight county officials, each from a member county.
B. Measurement Focus, Basis of Accounting and Basis of Presentation
The Authority's basic financial statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America US GAAP) as applied to government units. The Governmental
Accounting Standards Board is the acknowledged standard setting body for establishing accounting and
financial reporting standards. The Authority is presented in the accompanying basic financial statements
as a proprietary fund type  an enterprise fund. As a proprietary fund type, the Authority accounts for its
transactions on the flow of economic resources measurement focus and using the accrual basis of
accounting. Under the accrual basis of accounting, revenues are recognized when earned and expenses
are recorded when the liability is incurred or economic asset is used.
C. Use of Estimates
The preparation of basic financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of
the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenditures/expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
NOTE 2  CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS
The Authority now pools cash with the County of Kern. The cash balances reflect the transfers in of the
borrowed funds from both the County of Kern and the County of San Bernardino. Interest income earned
on pooled cash is allocated from the County of Kern to the Authority based on its average cash balances
outstanding. For purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, the Authority considers all highly liquid
investments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
NOTE 3  ADVANCES PAYABLE
At the beginning of July 2007, County of Kern and County of San Bernardino advanced $500,000 and
$1,500,000, respectively, to the Authority as initial funding. The advances bear interest at the same rate
that the two Counties apply to funds of other outside districts on deposit with the two Counties' treasury.
In addition, accrued interest will accrete to the principal of the advances. The Authority will be paid back
both principal and accrued interest from the Authority's net operating revenues as available. The
advances payable may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time, without penalty. There is no structured
due date for principal and unpaid interest for the advances payable. At June 30, 2010, the outstanding
principal and accrued interest was $1,911,975.

The Authority charges a fee to constituent organizations on a quarterly basis based on an annually
adopted operating budget, total document recordings and a per document fee. The Authority's operating
budget is adopted on an annual basis by the Board of Directors. This operating budget total is divided by
the total estimated document recording volume of constituent organizations to arrive at an annual per
document fee. Each constituent organization reports to the Authority on a quarterly basis its actual
recording volumes and this number is multiplied by the per document fee to arrive at a total fee due for
the quarter. This fee is then invoiced to the constituent organization and received as revenue under
Fees for Services from Other Governmental Agencies." For the year ended June 30, 2010, the amount
was $842,724.

We have audited the basic financial statements of the California Electronic Recording Transaction
Network Authority Authority), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2010, and have issued our report
thereon dated December 14, 2010. 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.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit, we considered the Authority's internal control over financial
reporting as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on
the basic financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of
the Authority's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the
effectiveness of the Authority's internal control over financial reporting.
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.
Our consideration of internal control over financial reporting 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
financial reporting that might be deficiencies, significant deficiencies, or material weaknesses. We did not
identify any deficiencies in internal control over financial reporting that we consider to be material
weaknesses, as defined above.
ar
Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Authority's basic financial statements are
free of 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.
