OVERVIEW
El Paso County is committed to providing transparency on financial information to the public by publishing the County's Financial Report and interim monthly financial reports, quarterly investment, revenue and expenditure reports, and long-term debt reports on the county web page. Doing so allows the public to view and question how their taxpayer dollars are spent. By displaying the county spending and providing access to those numbers, we ensure greater accountability to the public.
The County of El Paso has been received the “Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting” every year since 1989, from the Government Finance Officers Association. This recognition ensures the preparation of the County’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) is prepared in accordance of the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB).
