Comptroller on Sachem energy contracts

Screen Shot 2015-08-13 at 10.00.12 AMThe following is a report of our audit entitled School Districts’ Energy Performance Contracts.

A top priority of the Office of the State Comptroller is to help school district officials manage their district resources efficiently and effectively and, by so doing, provide accountability for tax dollars spent to support district operations.

The Comptroller oversees the fiscal affairs of districts statewide, as well as districts’ compliance with relevant statutes and observance of good business practices.

This fiscal oversight is accomplished, in part, through our audits, which identify opportunities for improving district operations and Board of Education governance. Audits also can identify strategies to reduce costs and to strengthen controls intended to safeguard district assets.
