It is the responsibility of the Finance Department to ensure that the Town's finances are managed in accordance with Federal, State, and Local laws and regulations. Included in this is the responsibility for the annual audit and the Town's compliance with generally accepted accounting and financial reporting procedures.
In addition, the department is charged with overall prevention of waste, fraud and abuse. An important measure of our success in these efforts is receipt of annual certificates issued by the
Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for the Town's annual financial report.
