The award represents a significant achievement by the entity. It reflects the commitment of the governing body and staff to meeting the highest principles of governmental budgeting.

“We are honored to once again receive this award as it reflects the City’s commitment to going above and beyond with our budget document,” said Cory Salley, City Finance Director. “I appreciate the support from the Mayor and City Council, the City Manager, and every member of the City staff. Without their support, this award would not be possible.”
When a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is granted to an entity, a Certificate of Recognition for Budget Presentation is also presented to the individual(s) or department designated as being primarily responsible for having achieved the award.
There are over 1,700 participants in the Budget Awards Program. The most recent Budget Award recipients, along with their corresponding budget documents, are posted quarterly on GFOA's website.
