HE GOVERNMENT FINANCE
Officers Association of the
United States and Canada
(GFOA) has given an Award for
Outstanding Achievement in Popular
Annual Financial Reporting to the
Town of Garner for its Popular Annual
Financial Report for the fiscal year
ending June 30, 2018. The Award
for Outstanding Achievement in
Popular Annual Financial Reporting
is a prestigious national award
recognizing conformance with the
highest standards for preparation of
state and local government popular
reports.
In order to receive an Award for
Outstanding Achievement in Pop-
ular Annual Financial Reporting,
a government unit must publish a
Popular Annual Financial Report,
whose contents conform to program
standards of creativity, presentation,
understandability and reader appeal.
An Award for Outstanding Achieve-
ment in Popular Annual Financial
Reporting is valid for a period of one
year only. The Town of Garner has
received a Popular Award for the last
five consecutive years (fiscal years
ended June 30, 2014 through June
30, 2018). We believe this current
report continues to conform to the
Popular Annual Financial Reporting
requirements, and we are submitting
it to GFOA to determine its eligibility
for another award.
