 Birdville ISD is recognized for financial responsibility/ transparency
|
State Comptroller Susan Combs recently notified Birdville ISD that it has earned the prestigious 2014 Platinum Leadership Circle Award. The Platinum Award is the highest level awarded to local government entities for financial transparency. BISD scored 21 out of 22 on the ratings criteria to earn this award. The district is now listed on the "Texas Transparency" website as a Platinum seal recipient (texastransparency.org/LocalGovernment/LeadershipCircle/). The Comptroller of Public Accounts launched the Texas Comptroller Leadership Circle program to recognize local government entities across Texas that are striving to meet a high standard for financial transparency online.
They are spotlighting local government entities that are:
- opening their books to the public;
- providing clear, consistent pictures of spending; and
- sharing information in a user-friendly format that lets taxpayers easily drill down for more detail.
