FINANCE DEPARTMENT
 The Finance
Department is made up of two divisions:
1.
Accounting Services Division:
This division is responsible for the disbursement of City funds
and for providing timely and informative financial information
to a variety of users. This division prepares the Comprehensive

The division prepares and administers the City’s annual
operating budget and five-year capital plan. In addition to
performing a variety of general accounting activities, the
department also invests City funds, administers the City’s
benefit programs, participates in policy analysis and formation

Sales & Use Tax Division:
Created in 1990, this division is responsible for processing
receipts of sales tax returns, monitoring businesses’
compliance with the city’s sales and use tax ordinances, and
overseeing collection of City sales tax instead of relying on
the State for this function. The main emphasis is educating and
assisting businesses with voluntary compliance with the
ordinances, while maintaining the resources to enforce the
ordinances, if necessary.
