Distinguished Budget Award
The Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) awarded the city with the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award for its Fiscal Year budget document. The award reflects the commitment of Princeton City Council and city staff to meet the highest principles of governmental budgeting. In order to receive the budget award, the City of Princeton must satisfy nationally recognized guidelines for an effective budget presentation. The Guidelines are designed to assess how well an entity’s budget serves as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communication device.
