Posted December 21, 2016 at 9:27 am by Tim Dustrude
Town of Friday Harbor Receives Clean Audit from State for 16th consecutive year.
The Washington State Auditor’s Office has completed the review of Friday Harbor’s 2015 financial records and has given the Town a clean audit report. This is the 16th consecutive year the Town has received a clean audit. The State auditors conduct annual reviews of each of the Town’s fund accounts including Current, Special, Debt Service, Proprietary and Fiduciary Funds.
Mayor Carrie Lacher and Town Administrator Duncan Wilson credit Finance Director Kelle Wilson and her team for the continued positive audit reviews. “I am extremely happy with the results of this year’s audit” said Mayor Carrie Lacher. “The citizens are very well served by the outstanding work of the Town Finance Department.”
Washington State law (Chapter 43.09 RCW) requires the State Auditor’s Office to examine the financial affairs of local governments. The State Auditor’s Office audits more than 3,000 governmental entities ranging from the largest counties to the smallest special-purpose districts.
