This is a very difficult honor to achieve and requires a lot of work by <br />Finance Director Larson, the Finance Department and the department heads. He commended the <br />City Council and City Manager for supporting this endeavor. Mr. DeJong stated these reports are <br />very dense and provide a complete picture of the governmental finances.

There are only about 120 other units of <br />government in the state, which is less than 10 %, that have achieved this honor. <br />Mr. DeJong presented the Certificate of Achievement of Excellence in Financial Reporting to <br />Finance Director Larson. <br />
