City of Perry Awarded Excellence in Financial Reporting

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded the Certificate of Excellence in Finance Reporting to the City of Perry for its annual comprehensive finance report for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

The financial report was judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the award program. Standards 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 Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and financial reporting. The award represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management.

The City of Perry is proud to have consistently received this award from the GFOA in the past several years.

Each year, the City of Perry publishes the “Citizen’s Finance Report” to ensure Perry’s taxpayers and stakeholders know how and where their money is spent each fiscal year. Perry continues to maintain an organized reputation for openness, honesty, and integrity to inspire confidence and trust in their local government.
