State Controller Malia M. Cohen Awarded 46 Counties for the State Controller’s Office Excellence in Reporting Accurate Financial Data for County Financial Transactions Reporting at the 80th Annual County Auditors Conference in Lake Arrowhead, California.
“I want to congratulate this year’s award recipients for their outstanding commitment to accuracy, transparency, and accountability,” said Controller Cohen. “County auditors are essential partners in strengthening public trust. Their diligent work ensures that taxpayer dollars are managed responsibly and that local governments have the reliable financial information they need to serve their communities.
This year’s theme—‘The Auditor’s Role in Trust: Unlocking Oversight & Transparency’—reflects the spirit of this recognition. When county and state partners work together to enhance oversight and elevate financial reporting, we do more than balance budgets—we build stronger, more equitable communities where all Californians can thrive.”
This year, 46 counites received the California State Controller Financial Transaction Reporting Award during the conference. This award recognizes counties for accurate and timely financial transaction reports to the State Controller, essential for generating precise local government financial data, crucial for policymakers, researchers, and constituents across California.

In accordance with Government Code (GC) 12422, the State Controller is required to convene county auditors at least once a year to discuss issues related to county budget procedures, financial transaction reporting, property tax revenue allocation, and to ensure uniformity in the duties of county auditors across the state. These meetings also aim to strengthen the collaboration between the State Controller’s Office (SCO) and county auditors.
