GFOA AWARD
T
HE GOVERNMENT FINANCE OFFICERS
Association of the United States and Canada
(GFOA) has given an Award for Outstanding
Achievement in Popular Annual Financial Reporting
to the Town of Garner for its Popular Annual Financial
Report for the fiscal year end June 30, 2016. The
Award for Outstanding Achievement in Popular Annual
Financial Reporting is a prestigious national award
recognizing conformance with the highest standards
for preparation of state and local government popular
reports.
In order to receive an Award for Outstanding
Achievement in Popular Annual Financial Reporting,
a government unit must publish a Popular Annual
Financial Report, whose contents conform to program
standards of creativity, presentation, understandability
and reader appeal.
An Award for Outstanding Achievement in Popular
Annual Financial Reporting is valid for a period of one
year only. The Town of Garner has received a Popular
Award for the last three consecutive years (fiscal years
ended June 30, 2014 through June 30, 2016). We
believe this current report continues to conform to
the Popular Annual Financial Reporting requirements,
and we are submitting it to GFOA to determine its
eligibility for another award.
