Quarterly Financial Reports
In the continuing effort to provide transparent, open, up-to-date, accurate, and comprehensive information to the La Palma community, the City has expanded the information provided in quarterly financial reports. In the past, quarterly financial reports focused exclusively on the City's General Fund revenues. The Finance Department has now expanded these reports to include year-to-date expenditure and revenue totals with projections for year-end totals. In addition, the quarterly reports will now be the vehicle for presenting regular updates on City Council goals.
