Missouri State Auditor Scott Fitzpatrick recently issued monthly reports detailing the compliance of municipalities and other political subdivisions with financial reporting laws.
One report addresses cities, towns, and villages, while the other pertains to political subdivisions such as water, fire protection, and other taxing districts. According to state regulations, these entities must submit annual financial reports to the State Auditor’s Office within six months of the fiscal year’s end.
A total of 31 taxing districts, whose fiscal year concluded on July 31, were required to file by January 31. Of these, 25 submitted their financial reports on time.
The reports also include information on 66 municipalities (55 cities, 1 town, and 10 villages) and 35 taxing districts that submitted late financial reports or other related documents to the State Auditor’s Office in January.
Reports received are searchable online. The complete report of municipalities is here and the full report of other political subdivisions is here.
