The GFOA has announced the County's attainment of a special award.  As noted in the attachment, "the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting was awarded to the Incorporated County of Los Alamos by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) for its 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."  This award is the 28th year that Los Alamos County has received this honor.

 

The FY2018 PAFR was also awarded the Certificate of Achievement from GFOA.  The PAFR "received a weighted average score of 75.00 percent or above from three of the four highest individual reviews.  This award represents the third year of receipt of this distinction in the three years that the PAFR has been submitted.
