Finance Administration Division



MISSION

The Finance Administration Division's mission mirror's the Finance Department as a whole.  That mission is to provide quality financial, and judicial services to other City Departments, the City Council, and the citizens of Abilene. These services are intended to be provided in a timely, accurate, and cost efficient manner by utilizing quality employees, technological advances, and generally accepted principles while fulfilling legal responsibilities.

OVERVIEW

The Finance Administration Division is responsible for the supervision, administration and overall planning of the City's financial activities.  The division is also responsible for idle fund investment, debt management, budget preparation and execution and preparation of the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR). 

We have recently converted our financial accounting system to a modern efficient enterprise resource planning system.  We will continue to look for more efficient ways to provide timely and quality financial information.
