Net investment income is reduced by dividends paid to preferred shareholders from net investment income of $0.063,
$0.110, $0.079, $0.077, $0.078, and $0.079 per share for the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017 and the years ended March 31, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, and from realized capital gains of $0.002, and $0.006 per share for the
years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |

Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase of common stock on the opening of the first day and a sale on
the closing of the last day of each period reported. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed for the purposes of this calculation to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Generally, total
investment return based on net asset value will be higher than total investment return based on market value in periods where there is an increase in the discount or a decrease in the premium of the market value to the net asset value from the
beginning to the end of such periods. Conversely, total investment return based on net asset value will be lower than total investment return based on market value in periods where there is a decrease in the discount or an increase in the premium of
the market value to the net asset value from the beginning to the end of such periods. |

$0.115, $0.083, $0.081, $0.076, and $0.084 per share for the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017 and the years ended March 31, 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively, and from realized capital gains of $0.014, and $0.005 per share for the
years ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. |

Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase of common stock on the opening of the first day and a sale on
the closing of the last day of each period reported. Dividends and distributions, if any, are assumed for the purposes of this calculation to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Funds dividend reinvestment plan. Generally, total
investment return based on net asset value will be higher than total investment return based on market value in periods where there is an increase in the discount or a decrease in the premium of the market value to the net asset value from the
beginning to the end of such periods. Conversely, total investment return based on net asset value will be lower than total investment return based on market value in periods where there is a decrease in the discount or an increase in the premium of
the market value to the net asset value from the beginning to the end of such periods. |

Notes to financial statements
Delaware FundsSM by Macquarie Closed-End Municipal Bond Funds
September 30, 2017 (Unaudited)
Delaware Investments Colorado Municipal Income
Fund, Inc. (Colorado Municipal Fund) and Delaware Investments Minnesota Municipal Income Fund II, Inc. (Minnesota Municipal Fund II) are organized as Minnesota corporations and Delaware Investments National Municipal Income Fund (National Municipal
Fund) is organized as a Massachusetts business trust (each referred to as a Fund and collectively as the Funds). Colorado Municipal Fund, Minnesota Municipal Fund II, and National Municipal Fund are considered diversified closed-end management investment companies under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Funds shares trade on the New York Stock Exchange MKT, the successor to the American Stock Exchange.
The investment objective of each of Colorado Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II is to provide current income exempt from federal income tax and from state
personal income tax, if any, consistent with the preservation of capital. The investment objective of National Municipal Fund is to provide current income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with the preservation of capital. Each of Colorado
Municipal Fund and Minnesota Municipal Fund II seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing substantially all of its net assets in investment grade, tax-exempt municipal obligations of its respective
state at the time of investment. National Municipal Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets in securities the income from which is exempt from federal income tax.
1. Significant Accounting Policies
The following accounting policies are in
accordance with US generally accepted accounting principles (US GAAP) and are consistently followed by the Funds.
Security Valuation Debt securities
are valued based upon valuations provided by an independent pricing service or broker and reviewed by management. To the extent current market prices are not available, the pricing service may take into account developments related to the specific
security, as well as transactions in comparable securities. Valuations for fixed income securities utilize matrix systems, which reflect such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings, and are supplemented by dealer and exchange
quotations. Generally, other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of each Funds Board of Directors/Trustees (each a Board, or
collectively, the Boards). In determining whether market quotations are readily available or fair valuation will be used, various factors will be taken into consideration, such as market closures or suspension of trading in a security. The foregoing
valuation policies apply to restricted and unrestricted securities.
Federal Income Taxes No provision for federal income taxes has been made as each
Fund intends to continue to qualify for federal income tax purposes as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and make the requisite distributions to shareholders. The Funds evaluate tax
positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing each Funds tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained by the applicable
tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed each Funds tax
positions taken on the Funds federal income tax returns through the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017 and for all open tax years (years ended March 31, 2014March 31, 2017), and has concluded that no provision for federal income tax is
required in each Funds financial statements. If applicable, each Fund recognizes interest accrued on unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in other expenses on the Statements of operations. During the six
months ended Sept. 30, 2017, the Funds did not incur any interest or tax penalties.
Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include
deposits held at financial institutions, which are available for the Funds use with no restrictions, with original maturities of 90 days or less.
Use of
Estimates Each Fund is an investment company, whose financial statements are prepared in conformity with US GAAP. Therefore, each Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidelines for investment companies. The preparation of
financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of investments, 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 expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.
Other Expenses directly attributable to each Fund are charged directly to the Fund. Other expenses common to various funds within the Delaware Funds SM by
Macquarie (Delaware Funds) are generally allocated among such funds on the basis of average net assets. Management fees and certain other expenses are paid monthly. Security transactions are recorded on the date the securities are purchased or sold
(trade date) for financial reporting purposes. Costs used in calculating realized gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and
premiums on debt securities are accreted or amortized to interest income, respectively, over the lives of the respective securities using the effective interest method. Each Fund declares and pays
Notes to financial statements

1. Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
dividends from net investment income monthly and distributions from net realized gain on investments, if any, annually.
Each Fund may distribute more frequently, if necessary for tax purposes. Dividends and distributions, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Each Fund receives earnings credits from its custodian when positive cash balances are maintained, which may be used to offset custody fees. The expense paid under this
arrangement is included on the Statements of operations under Custodian fees with the corresponding expense offset shown under Less expense paid indirectly. For the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017, each Fund
earned the following amounts under this agreement:
|
|
|
|
|
Colorado Municipal
Fund |
|
Minnesota Municipal
Fund II |

National Municipal Fund |
$1,149 |
|
$1,284 |

2. Investment Management, Administration Agreements and Other Transactions with Affiliates
In accordance with the terms of its respective investment management agreement, each Fund pays Delaware Management Company (DMC), a series of Macquarie Investment
Management Business Trust (formerly, Delaware Management Business Trust) and the investment manager, an annual fee of 0.40% which is calculated based on each Funds adjusted average daily net assets.
Delaware Investments Fund Services Company (DIFSC), an affiliate of DMC, provides fund accounting and financial administration oversight services to each Fund. For
these services, DIFSCs fees were calculated daily and paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of the Delaware Funds from April 1, 2017 through Aug. 31, 2017 at the following annual rate: 0.0050% of the first $30 billion;
0.0045% of the next $10 billion; 0.0040% of the next $10 billion; and 0.0025% of aggregate average daily net assets in excess of $50 billion. The fees payable to DIFSC under the service agreement described above were allocated among
all funds in the Delaware Funds on a relative net asset value (NAV) basis. Effective Sept. 1, 2017, the Funds entered into an amendment to the DIFSC agreement. Under the amendment to the DIFSC agreement, DIFSCs fees are calculated daily and
paid monthly based on the aggregate daily net assets of the Delaware Funds at the following annual rate: 0.00475% of the first $35 billion; 0.0040% of the next $10 billion; and 0.0025% of aggregate average daily net assets in excess of
$45 billion (Total Fee). Each Fund in the Delaware Funds pays a minimum of $4,000, which, in aggregate, is subtracted from the Total Fee. Each Fund in the Delaware Funds then pays its relative portion of the remainder of the Total Fee on a
relative NAV basis. These amounts are included on the Statements of operations under Accounting and administration expenses. For the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017, each Fund was charged for these services as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Colorado Municipal
Fund |
|
Minnesota Municipal
Fund II |
|
National Municipal Fund |
$2,653 |
|
$5,806 |
|
$2,490 |
As provided in the investment management agreement, each Fund bears a portion of the cost of certain resources shared with DMC,
including the cost of internal personnel of DMC and/or its affiliates that provide legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services to each Fund. These amounts are included on the Statements of operations under Legal fees. For
the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017, each Fund was charged for internal legal, tax, and regulatory reporting services provided by DMC and/or its affiliates employees as follows:
|
|
|
|
|
Colorado Municipal
Fund |
|
Minnesota Municipal
Fund II |
|
National Municipal Fund |
$8,201 |
|
$13,243 |
|
$8,628 |
Directors/Trustees fees include expenses accrued by each Fund for each Directors/Trustees retainer and
meeting fees. Certain officers of DMC and DIFSC are officers and/or Directors/Trustees of the Funds. These officers and Directors/Trustees are paid no compensation by the Funds.
Cross trades for the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017, were executed by the Funds pursuant to procedures adopted by the Boards designed to ensure compliance with Rule 17a-7 under the 1940 Act. Cross trading is the buying or selling of portfolio securities between funds of investment companies, or between a fund of an investment company and another entity, that are or could be
considered affiliates by virtue of having a common investment advisor (or affiliated investment advisors), common directors/trustees and/or common officers. At their regularly
32
scheduled meetings, the Boards review such transactions for compliance with the procedures adopted by the Boards.
Pursuant to these procedures, for the six months ended Sept. 30, 2017, the Funds engaged in securities purchases and securities sales, which did not result in any realized gains or losses as follows:
