Performance Audits evaluate if the City is effectively and efficiently spending taxpayer dollars, complying with relevant rules and regulations, and whether programs are getting the results promised.

These follow-up reports assess the status of the implementation of performance audit recommendations, and document if corrective action has been taken.

Reports in progress are those that the Office of the City Auditor is currently working on. The amount of time required to complete a report is dependent on the scope of work, and some audits may require a significant amount of time. Once an audit is complete, report findings and recommendations are published and available on the Audit Reports page.
