State auditor Byrd gives county treasurer top marks

No exceptions found from treasurer’s office review

Posted

An annual statutorily required report on the McClain County Treasurer’s Office came back with no exceptions noted.

That’s the word from State Auditor & Inspector Cindy Byrd on Michelle Williams’ office in the county courthouse.

Byrd’s office checked to see whether bank reconciliations were properly performed.

They visually verified the certificates of deposit and confirmed the McClain County investments.

The auditor also determined whether subsidiary records were reconciled to the general ledger and determined whether deposits and invested funds were secured by pledged collateral.

All were noted as having been performed.

As part of the report, Byrd said that the goal of the State Auditor & Inspector is to promote accountability and fiscal integrity in state and local government.

She stated her office maintains an independence while providing the report, but also wishes to thank the county for its assistance and cooperation extended during the engagement.
