Distinguished Budget Presentation Award
The Government Finance Officers Association ( GFOA) of the United States and Canada presented an award
of Distinguished Budget Presentation to the City of Fort Walton Beach for its annual budget for the fiscal year
beginning October 1, 2006.
In order to receive this award a governmental unit must publish a budget document that meets program
criteria as a policy document, as an operations guide, as a financial plan, and as a communication device.
The award is valid for a period of one year. The City has received this prestigious award for ten consecutive
years. We believe our current budget continues to conform to program requirements and we are submitting it
to GFOA to determine its eligibility for another award.
