Date: 4-25-16
Item/Subject: ORDER, Accepting the City of Bangor's Comprehensive Annual Financial
Report for the Year Ended June 30, 2015
Responsible Department: Finance
Commentary:
The attached Order accepts the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) including
its General Purpose Financial Statements and the Independent Auditor's unqualified opinion as
prepared by Runyon Kersteen Ouellette of South Portland, Maine.
In accordance with State law, the City prepares this annual financial statement through an
independent audit firm. Based upon the audit findings, the City received an unqualified opinion
that the financial statements are fairly stated in all material respects. Additionally, no material
weaknesses have been identified related to the City's internal controls.
For the past eighteen years, the City has been awarded the Government Finance Officers
Associations (GFOA) Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting. As such,
this CAFR has been submitted to GFOA for their consideration.
At this time staff and the Manager recommend approval. The Finance Committee met with the
City's auditors and reviewed the various reports on March 7, 2016.
