Our Mission
The Auditor-Controller and Treasurer-Tax Collector protects county financial resources and ensures adequate fiscal accountability within the county government.
The Department
The two main divisions of the department were previously separate county departments that merged in 2007. The Auditor-Controller division maintains the official financial records of the county and conducts internal audits. The Treasurer-Tax Collector division is responsible for receiving and safekeeping the county financial assets and collecting all amounts due the county, including property taxes and court-ordered amounts.
