Wellington Earns Top Honors for CAFR, 18 Years Running!
The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) is awarding the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR) to the Village of Wellington’s Office of Financial Management & Budget for the Fiscal Year 2013 CAFR. This certificate is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management. The CAFR has been judged by an impartial panel to meet the highest standards of the program including demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the CAFR.
This year’s Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting is the 18th continuously earned, and the Village gives special recognition to Manager of Financial Reporting, Mindy Boersma, for her significant contribution to the body of work that earned this esteemed honor. This accolade reflects the commitment the Village staff has for meeting the highest principles and best practices in governmental accounting and reporting.
The Government Finance Officers Association is a nonprofit, professional association serving approximately 17,500 government finance professionals throughout North America.
