Monticello, NY – For the 34th consecutive time, the Sullivan County Treasurer’s Office has been accorded the Financial Reporting Achievement Award from the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). The County also received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting from the GFOA.
The award was given after an impartial panel of judges determined the County’s 2023 Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) met GFOA’s high standards, including demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” in communicating financial details and motivating people to read it. The report can be found at https://sullivanny.gov/Departments/Managementandbudget/Audits.
“News of this award brings much excitement to my office every year – made even more meaningful to me as this will be my last year in office,” said County Treasurer Nancy Buck. “I very much appreciate the recognition for the significant amount of daily work that County staff – particularly Senior Fiscal Administrator Shannan Armbrust – are required to perform. I am deeply grateful for my entire team, not only for the diligence in which they carry out their duties, but for the way they conduct themselves every day with the public they serve.”
“We hope that your example will encourage other government officials in their efforts to achieve and maintain an appropriate standard of excellence in financial reporting,” concluded Michele Mark Levine, the GFOA’s Director of Technical Services.
The GFOA is a national nonprofit association serving approximately 21,000 government finance professionals, with offices in Chicago and Washington, DC.
