Annual Financial Reports

The City is required by law to have an annual audit conducted by a qualified independent auditor. The results of the annual audit (together with additional financial information about the City) is published annually in a report called the ACFR (Annual Comprehensive Financial Report).

The City prepares its ACFR in accordance with the stringent guidelines of the Government Accounting Standards Board (GASB) and the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). Each year since 1985, the City has been awarded the GFOA Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its ACFR report. This is the highest form of recognition for government financial reports.
