The Accounting section maintains commercial accounts payable, receives and records revenues, reconciles the general ledger, reconciles bank statements, prepares monthly financial statements, coordinates the budget process, and prepares schedules in support of the annual audit.

Management & Budget

The Management and Budget section coordinates the annual budget processes, to include preparation, adjustment based on City Council review/adoption, implementation, and evaluation. The Budgeting section manages these four phases for both the capital and operating budgets.
