10/06/2023 - Jefferson City, MO
Missouri State Auditor
Scott Fitzpatrick recently
issued monthly reports detailing the compliance of municipalities and other
political subdivisions with financial reporting laws.
One report includes cities, towns,
and villages while the other lists political subdivisions such as water, fire
protection, and other taxing districts. Per state regulation, these entities
are required to file annual financial reports with the State Auditor's Office
within six months of the end of their fiscal year.
A total of 8 municipalities (4 cities
and 4 villages) and 13 taxing districts were required to file by August 31
because their fiscal year ended on February 28. Of those entities, 18 filed
financial reports timely.
These reports also include
information on 58 municipalities (47 cities, 2 towns, and 9 villages) and 187
taxing districts that submitted late financial reports or other related
documents during the month of August to the State Auditor's Office.
Reports received are searchable
online. The complete report of municipalities is here and the full report of other political
subdivisions is here.
