Financial Reporting Awards
The City of Nashua has received a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial
Reporting from the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada
(GFOA) for its ACFR for the last fifteen fiscal years. In order to receive this prestigious award the
report must be easily readable and efficiently organized, the contents must conform to program
standards, and it must satisfy both generally accepted accounting principles and applicable legal
requirements. The award is presented to government units and public employee retirement systems
whose ACFRs achieve the highest standards in government accounting and financial reporting.
The Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe that this ACFR
conforms to the standards required for the certificate and will be submitting it to the GFOA for
review.
Acknowledgements
The preparation and publication of this ACFR would not have been possible without the dedication
and hard work of members of the Financial Services Division team. This accomplishment also
required contributions and cooperation from many departments throughout the City and we
appreciate their efforts as well. We would also like to thank the Board of Aldermen for their
continued support of the highest standards of professionalism in the management of the City’s
finances.
