City of Rockford Earns GFOA Triple Crown for Excellence in Financial Management

The City of Rockford is proud to announce it has been awarded the prestigious Triple Crown by the Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA). This recognition is given to governments that receive all three of GFOA's highest honors:

  • Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting
  • Distinguished Budget Presentation Award
  • Popular Annual Financial Reporting Award

Achieving even one of these awards is a significant accomplishment, but earning all three puts the City in elite company. Fewer than 0.5% of all local governments nationwide have earned this distinction, with only about 350 cities and counties recognized at this level.

"This achievement reflects the incredible work of our Finance Department and the City team as a whole," explains Mayor Tom McNamara. "It demonstrates our commitment to transparency, accountability and excellence in financial stewardship. Congratulations to everyone involved!"
