Fiscal Officer / Finance: Financial Controls |
|
|
Due to recent events in the Stark County Treasurer's office, Plain Township would like to assure its residents that their funds are being handled properly and are safe.
|
|
|
Plain Township's Fiscal Office has in place internal controls and accounting procedures to provide a reasonable assurance that the specific objectives of Plain Township are attained.
|
|
|
At Plain Township each department is responsible for the activity in their center.
For revenues, they issue receipts for all income and prepare a deposit slip which is turned in daily to the Finance office.
In the Finance Office, this is again receipted and with the deposit slip taken daily to the bank.
Monies received from Stark County and the State of Ohio is electronically deposited to Plain Township's bank account.
|
|
|
At the end of each month all accounts are reconciled against the bank statements and reviewed by the Fiscal Officer.
We feel this provides a good audit trail and no one person is handling all transactions.
|
|
|
Plain Township has an internal audit committee that meets to review the budget, finances, investments and procedures of the Fiscal Office.
