Scope and Content

Audit reports on the financial affairs of the City of Dallas from 1977 to 1989.  The collection is especially strong in audit information on federal programs such as the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA), Job Training Partnership Act (JTPA), and the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) programs.

The Office of the City Auditor conducts audits, attestations, and fraud investigations of city departments, offices, agencies, and processes. Also, advisory services can be agreed upon for City Council or city administration-specific requests. The position was created by Charter in 1907 and was once responsible for tax statements, the issuance of revenue bonds, the issuance of payroll warrants, and oversight of proceeds of bond sales profits.
