The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) has awarded the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to HART.
The GFOA Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management.
"We are honored by the recognition because it showcases HART's commitment to transparency," said Interim Chief Financial Officer Cyndy Stiglich. "Our goal is to be a good financial steward of taxpayer money and the award highlights these efforts."
The award recognizes HART's comprehensive, annual financial report for the fiscal year ending September 30th, 2019.
An impartial panel judged the report concluding it meets the high standards of the program, which include demonstrating a constructive "spirit of full disclosure" to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the report.
The GFOA advances excellence in government finance by providing best practices, professional development, resources, and practical research for more than 21,000 members and the communities they serve.
