PART I
Item 1. BUSINESS
Community Investment Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") was formed
to seek long-term capital appreciation by making investments in
companies and other special investment situations. The Partnership will
not engage in any other business or activity. The Partnership will
dissolve on December 31, 2005, subject to the right of the Individual
General Partners to extend the term for up to two additional two-year
periods.
The Partnership has elected to be a business development company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a business
development company, the Partnership is required to invest at least 70%
of its assets in qualifying investments as specified in the Investment
Company Act.
The Partnership was formed on October 10, 1989, under the Revised
Uniform Limited Partnership Act of Missouri. CIP Management, L.P., LLLP,
the Managing General Partner, is a Missouri limited liability limited
partnership formed on October 10, 1989 as a limited partnership and
registered as a limited liability limited partnership on July 23, 1997.
The general partner of CIP Management, L.P., LLLP is CIP Management,
Inc., an indirect subsidiary of Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P.
The Partnership participated in a public offering of its limited
partnership interests in 1990. The Partnership sold 91,820 Units of
limited partnership interest for an aggregate price of $2,295,500.
After offering expenses of approximately $122,000, the Partnership
received approximately $2,173,500 in proceeds available for investment.
The Partnership is no longer making initial portfolio investments,
but may continue to make follow-on investments. For information
regarding the Partnership's current portfolio investments and purchases
and sales during the year, see Item 8 of this Form 10-K.
The information set forth under the captions "Investment
Objectives & Policies" and "Regulation" in the Prospectus of the
Partnership dated March 12, 1990, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933, is
incorporated herein by reference.
RISKS OF UNIT OWNERSHIP
The purchase and ownership of Units involve a number of
significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio company
investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of business and
financial risk that can result in substantial losses. Among these are
the risks associated with investments in companies with little operating
history, companies operating at a loss or with substantial variations in
operating results from period to period, companies with the need for
substantial additional capital to support expansion or achieve or
maintain a competitive position, companies which may be highly
leveraged, companies which may not be diversified and companies in which
the Partnership may be the sole or primary lender. The Partnership
invests in only a few companies. Therefore, a loss or other problem
with a single investment would have a material adverse effect on the
Partnership.
Risks may arise due to the period of time (typically four to seven
years or longer) which will elapse before portfolio company investments
have reached a state of maturity such that disposition can be
considered.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
Portfolio companies may require additional funds and there can be
no assurance that the Partnership will have sufficient funds from
reserves or borrowing to make such follow-on investments which may have
a substantial negative impact on a portfolio company in need of
additional funds.
All decisions with respect to the management of the Partnership,
including identifying and making portfolio investments, are made
exclusively by the General Partners. Limited Partners must rely on the
abilities of the General Partners. The key personnel of the Managing
General Partner have considerable prior experience in investment banking
and in structuring investments.
Ownership of the Units also entails risk because Limited Partners
may not be able to liquidate their investment in the event of an
emergency or for any other reason due to the substantial restrictions on
transfers contained in the Partnership Agreement and the lack of a
market for the resale of Units.
The information set forth under the captions "Risk and Other
Important Factors" (including the subsections "Risks of Investment,"
"Size of Partnership," "Ability to Invest Funds," "Time Required to
Maturity of Investments; Illiquidity of Investments," "Need for Follow-
on Investments," "Use of Leverage," "Unspecified Investment," "Reliance
on Management," "New Business," "No Market for Units" and "Federal
Income Tax Considerations") on pages 9 through 14 of the Prospectus of
Partnership dated March 12, 1990, filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission pursuant to Rule 497(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 on
March 12, 1990, is incorporated herein by this reference. (This
information has been restated herein pursuant to section 64(b) of the
Investment Company Act of 1940).
Partners should refer to the Partnership Agreement for more
detailed information.
EMPLOYEES
The Partnership has no employees. The Managing General Partner,
subject to the supervision of the Individual General Partners, manages
the Partnership's portfolio company investments and, pursuant to a
Management Agreement with the Partnership, performs or arranges for
affiliates to perform, the management and administrative services for
the Partnership and is responsible for managing the Partnership's money-
market investments. The Managing General Partner receives no fee under
the Management Agreement but is reimbursed by the Partnership for
certain expenses.

Item 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

proceedings.

Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
(FISCAL YEAR 1998 VERSUS 1997)
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1998, was $484,256,
compared to net income of $269,655 in 1997, an increase of 80%. The
increase in net income is attributable to realized gains of $1,237,319
offset by net unrealized losses of $733,306.
Realized gains are due to significant gains recognized in 1998
from the sale of stock in Intermedia Communications of Florida and
Innovation Medical Technologies, Inc., see Note 6 to the financial
statements. Innovation Medical Technologies, Inc. shares of Class A and
B Preferred stock and Intermedia Communications of Florida shares of
Common stock were sold resulting in gains of $1,170,602 and $527,207,
respectively. The realized gains were offset by a realized loss in
Vision Partners, L.P. limited partnership interests in the amount of
$460,490. Unrealized losses are due to a decrease in share prices of
portfolio investments from the prior year and to a reversal of previous
unrealized gains on shares sold.
The partnership made distributions of $7 and $12.50 per unit
during 1998 representing amounts of $754,740 and $1,347,750,
respectively. Director's fees have been discontinued in 1998 due to the
fact that initial investments will no longer be made by the Partnership.
As of December 31, 1998, unrealized losses on investments totaled
$65,182. The future income or loss of the Partnership is contingent upon
the performance of the portfolio investments.
(FISCAL YEAR 1997 VERSUS 1996)
Net income for the year ended December 31, 1997 was $269,655,
compared to net income of $992,123 for the year ended December 31, 1996.
This decrease in net income is primarily attributable to lower realized
gains on the sale of investments in 1997. See detail of investment
sales in Note 6 to the financial statements. In 1997, there was a net
unrealized loss on investments of $254,746. This was due to a large
unrealized loss recorded for Isolyser Company, Inc. when the share price
declined significantly from the prior year, which was partially offset
by a large unrealized gain recorded for Intermedia Communications of
Florida when the company's share price more than doubled from the prior
year. These unrealized gains and losses also were offset by reversals
of prior period unrealized gains on stock sold during 1997.
In addition, income derived from dividends and interest increased
approximately $44,900 due to dividends declared for the first time that
were recorded on Innovation Medical Technologies, Inc. 6% Class A and 6%
Class B Preferred Stock. Expenses increased approximately $4,700, or
34% from the prior year due to higher trustee fees.
The Partnership made a distribution of $5 per unit during 1997.
As of December 31, 1997, unrealized gains on investments totaled
$668,124. The future income or loss of the Partnership is contingent
upon the performance of the portfolio investments.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Partnership is expected to receive disbursements of $96,750,
$48,375, and $48,375 on July 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001 related to the
escrow agreement from the liquidation of stock in Innovation Medical
Technologies, Inc. dated July 30, 1998. These disbursements are
contingent upon any claims against Innovation Medical Technologies, Inc.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Total capital for the Partnership as of December 31, 1998, was
$525,703. This consisted of $436,053 in Limited Partner capital and
$89,650 in General Partner capital.
Net income of $484,256 for 1998 was allocated in the amount of
$394,426 to the Limited Partners and in the amount of $89,830 to the
General Partners.
At December 31, 1998, the Partnership had $212,383 in cash and
cash equivalents.
YEAR 2000 ISSUE
Although the Partnership has no Year 2000 issues that would result
from its own information systems, the Partnership has investments in
publicly and privately placed securities and loans. The Partnership may
be exposed to credit risk to the extent that the related borrowers are
materially adversely impacted by the Year 2000 issue.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Partners of
Community Investment Partners, L.P.
In our opinion, the accompanying Statements of Financial Condition,
including the Schedule of Portfolio Investments, and the related
Statements of Income, of Cash Flows and of Changes in Partnership
Capital present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position
of Community Investment Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") at December
31, 1998 and 1997, and the results of its operations, its cash flows and
the changes in its Partnership Capital for each of the three years in
the period ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Partnership's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with
generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits, which included confirmation of portfolio investments
owned at December 31, 1998, provide a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PARTNERS, L.P.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. GENERAL
Partnership Organization
-------------------------
Community Investment Partners, L.P. (the "Partnership") was
formed on October 10, 1989, under the Revised Uniform Limited
Partnership Act of Missouri. CIP Management, L.P., LLLP, the Managing
General Partner, is a Missouri limited liability limited partnership
formed on October 10, 1989 as a limited partnership and registered as a
limited liability limited partnership on July 23, 1997. The general
partner of CIP Management, L.P., LLLP is CIP Management, Inc., an
indirect subsidiary of Edward D. Jones & Co., L.P.
Business
--------
The Partnership elected to be a business development company
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. As a business
development company, the Partnership is required to invest at least 70%
of its assets in qualifying investments as specified in the Investment
Company Act. The Managing General Partner is responsible for making the
Partnership's investment decisions.
The Partnership has sought and will continue to seek long-
term capital appreciation by making investments in companies and other
special investment situations. The Partnership is not permitted to
engage in any other business or activity. The Partnership will dissolve
on December 31, 2005, subject to the right of the Individual General
Partners to extend the term for up to two additional two-year periods.
As of December 31, 1992, the Partnership is no longer making
initial portfolio investments, but may continue to make follow-on
investments.
Risk of Ownership
-----------------
The purchase and ownership of Partnership Units involve a
number of significant risks and other important factors. The portfolio
company investments of the Partnership involve a high degree of business
and financial risk that can result in substantial losses. Among these
are the risks associated with investments in companies with little
operating history, companies operating at a loss or with substantial
variations in operating results from period to period, companies with
the need for substantial additional capital to support expansion or
achieve or maintain a competitive position, companies which may be
highly leveraged, companies which may not be diversified and companies
in which the Partnership may be the sole or primary lender. The
Partnership intends to invest in only a few companies; therefore, a loss
or other problem with a single investment would have a material adverse
effect on the Partnership.
2. ALLOCATION OF PARTNERSHIP PROFITS AND LOSSES
The Partnership Agreement generally provides for the allocation
of profits and losses pro rata based on the Partners' capital
contributions. Refer to the Partnership Agreement for more detailed
information.
<PAGE>
<PAGE>
3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------
All short-term investments with original maturities of three
months or less are considered to be cash equivalents.
Investment Transactions
-----------------------
All portfolio investments are carried at cost until
significant developments affecting an investment provide a basis for
revaluation. Thereafter, portfolio investments are carried at fair
value as obtained from outside sources or at a value determined
quarterly by the Managing General Partner under the supervision of the
Independent General Partners. Due to the inherent uncertainty of
valuation, those estimated values for portfolio investments carried at
cost may differ significantly from the values that would have been used
had a ready market for the investment existed, and the differences could
be material to the financial statements. Investments in securities
traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the latest
reported sales price on the last business day of the period. If no sale
has taken place, the securities are valued at the last bid price. If no
bid price has been reported, or if no exchange quotation is available,
the securities are valued at the quotation obtained from an outside
broker. Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.
Income is recorded on an accrual basis.
Use of Estimates
----------------
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of
the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Income Taxes
------------
Income taxes have not been provided for as the Partnership
is a limited partnership and each partner is liable for its own tax
payments. Allocation of Partnership profits and losses for tax purposes
is based upon taxable income which may differ from net income for
financial reporting primarily due to differences between book and tax
accounting for portfolio investments.
Distributions
-------------
When excess cash, if any, becomes available, it is the
Partnership's intent to make distributions. All distributions are
subject to the sole discretion of the Managing General Partner and the
Independent General Partners.
