(l to r) Mayor Knox and Finance Director, Piet Swart, receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting

The Town of Davidson is pleased to announce that the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) has once again awarded Davidson the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting for its comprehensive annual financial report (CAFR).  The Certificate of Achievement is the highest form of recognition in the area of governmental accounting and financial reporting, and its attainment represents a significant accomplishment by a government and its management.

The CAFR is judged by an impartial panel to meet the high standards of the program, which includes demonstrating a constructive “spirit of full disclosure” to clearly communicate its financial story and motivate potential users and user groups to read the CAFR.

 “Under the board’s direction, we have taken our financial reporting and transparency up to a new level and this award validates those efforts,” said Town Manager Jamie Justice. “We are proud of our colleagues in the finance department here at the Town of Davidson and thrilled their hard work is being recognized in this way.”
