Lafayette's Assistant Administrative Services Director Jennifer Wakeman shared a plaque with the city council at its Nov. 13 meeting after the Finance and Budget office received its eighth consecutive certificate of achievement for excellence in financial reporting. The awarding organization, the Government Finance Officers Association, represents public finance officials throughout the United States and Canada. To promote excellence in financial reporting the GFOA developed the Excellence in Financial Reporting Program. "The certificate is the highest form of recognition a public agency can receive for their financial reporting," Wakeman said. "I want to thank the finance staff who works with integrity and diligence every day."
