Annual Budget and Workplans
The Office of the City Auditor's annual budget is adopted by City Council each fiscal year as part of the City's budget/program planning cycle. The City's approved annual operating budgets can be found in the City's Operating & Capital Budget Documents Archive. The approved operating capital and budgeted number of staff for the Office of the City Auditor can be seen in the table below.
The Sacramento Office of the City Auditor takes a risk-based approach in determining the allocation of office resources. Each year, the City Auditor submits an annual workplan to the City Council for review and approval. As part of our annual review of potential topics, we solicit suggestions from City Council and City staff. Additionally, we use information from the City's approved operating and capital budgets to analyze potential topics. Our analysis for determining the annual workplan takes into account: approved expenditures, fund type, budgeted number of staff, reported areas of concern, and last date of audit. This analysis helps ensure office resources are focused in those areas with the highest potential. The results of this analysis inform our annual workplans, seen below.
