San Antonio's City Council celebrated a significant milestone during their recent meeting on May 29, 2025, as they announced the successful completion of seven consecutive years of independent financial audits without any significant findings. This achievement underscores the city's commitment to transparency and effective financial management.

The independent audit, conducted by an external group, reviewed the city's financial statements and record-keeping processes. The results reflect the complexity and scale of San Antonio's operations, which manage a budget of approximately $4 billion. City officials highlighted the importance of this report, noting that it is widely utilized by regional agencies, investors, and the public to assess the city's financial health.

City leaders expressed gratitude to the financial department staff for their dedication and hard work. Key figures, including City Controller Elizabeth Julieard and Financial Systems Director Vicky Roder, were recognized for their contributions to maintaining the city's financial integrity.

The annual financial report is available on the city's transparency website, ensuring that residents have access to vital information about how public funds are managed. As the city looks forward to the next audit, officials remain committed to upholding high standards of accountability and transparency in their financial practices.
