For the 16th consecutive year, White County has earned national recognition for excellence in financial reporting.

The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded the White County Board of Commissioners its Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting. The honor recognizes the county’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024.

This is the highest form of recognition in governmental accounting and financial reporting. White County’s report met the program’s high standards for transparency and clarity, including a “spirit of full disclosure” to help the public better understand and engage with the county’s financial information.

County officials say the award reflects White County’s ongoing commitment to accountability and excellence in public service.

The GFOA supports more than 25,000 government finance professionals across the U.S. and Canada through training, resources, and best practices.
