LAKEPORT
City of Lakeport awarded for annual financial report
The Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting has been awarded to the city of Lakeport by the Government Finance Officers Association of the U.S. and Canada (GFOA) for its comprehensive annual financial report. This is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and according to city officials, its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management. An award of Financial Reporting Achievement has been awarded to the individual(s) or department designated by the government as primary responsible for preparing the award winning report.
The report has been judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential user groups to read the report. According to Lakeport Deputy Clerk Hillary Britton, this is the fourth year in a row that the City has been awarded the Certificate of Achievement.
