Financial Information
Message from Director of Corporate Services
It is my pleasure to present the third Annual Financial Report for the Town of Rocky Mountain House. The 2021 Annual Report is intended to provide an informative and easy-to-read update on the activities and financial status of the Town of Rocky Mountain House. By expanding on the audited financial statements, a reader will develop a broad understanding of Town activities and initiatives and how all of this relates to the financial statements.
All municipalities in Alberta are required under section 276 of the Municipal Government Act (MGA) to undergo an audit and prepare audited statements in accordance with the Public Sector Accounting Board (PASB) of the Chartered Professional Accountants of Canada principles and standards. This ensures that the financial activities are reported consistently, and that reliance can be placed on the information presented.
It is management’s responsibility to prepare accurate, complete and objective financial statements that fairly represent the activities of the Town. This includes the financial information as well as disclosures in the financial statements. This financial information provides valuable insight to the users, both internally and externally, into how the Town undertakes to provide services and how successful it is in achieving its objectives.
As a municipal employee, my goal is to bring value to the stakeholders and make sure that the funds we are entrusted with are used to delivery high quality services as effectively as possible. Providing sound financial information gives staff the ability to manage their operations and be a leader in municipal service delivery.
B. Comm. CPA, CMA
