The Village's Financial Cycle
The Village utilizes a fund accounting system to account for the resources necessary to operate and to maintain capital assets. The Village completes an annual financial cycle designed to plan how funds will be spent during the year, manage and track revenues and expenditures while the plan is in place, and report on final outcomes at year-end.

Annual Budget
The annual budget is the key financial policy and planning document of the Village and outlines anticipated revenues and authorized expenditures for the Village in a given fiscal year (May 1 - April 30). The budget combines information from the Capital Improvement Plan, operating Departments and other sources and creates a comprehensive overview of the Village's funds. The draft budget is released each year in late February with the Board reviewing and approving it in April.

Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR)
The Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) is the Village's annual audit. It focuses on a single financial year and covers a variety of topics including the Village's overall financial standing and the standing of each fund. An independent auditor completes a review of the Village's financial practices and statements and includes an official letter summarizes its findings. The CAFR is the last piece of the Village's financial cycle and is released for the prior fiscal year each October.
The Village also prepares a Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR) which is an easy to use snapshot of the CAFR.
