Cathedral City Has Clean Audit for Fourth Year in a Row

Moreland & Associates recently completed and audit of Cathedral City’s Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for fiscal year 2007 (July,1, 2006 through June 30th, 2007). For the fourth year in a row there were no reportable findings and no management letter. That means a clean audit. Way to go Finance Department!

Finance Advisory Schedules Public Presentation

The Finance Advisory Committee, a group of Cathedral City residents appointed by the City Council to look at the City’s finances and recommend how to improve its revenues, will present its findings at a public meeting March 11, 2008 at 6 PM at the Cathedral City Senior Center located at 68-727 East Palm Canyon.

The report includes information on comparative revenue information on Valley cities, trend information on demand for key city services, police and fire response times and offers several alternatives for public discussion and input.
