Town of Milton Receives Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from Government Finance Officers Association

The Town of Milton is proud to announce that it has been awarded the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) for its fiscal year budget. This prestigious recognition is the highest form of acknowledgment in governmental budgeting and reflects the Town’s commitment to transparency, accountability, and excellence in financial planning.

The GFOA’s Distinguished Budget Presentation Award is considered the gold standard in public budgeting and represents a significant achievement by the Town of Milton and its financial management team. In order to receive the award, a governmental entity must satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for effective budget presentation. These guidelines assess how well the budget serves as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communications device.

“This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the Town’s Budget Committee,” said Scott Ostrander, Town Supervisor.

“This award reflects our team’s commitment to financial condition management by way of implementing responsible and transparent budgeting practices. I am thrilled for the Town Board and the Budget Committee” said Dave Braymer, Town Comptroller.
