Auditor-Controller

The Office of the Auditor-Controller is a central service department providing accounting and financial support to the operations of the County departments, special districts, and other partnering agencies.

 

During this shelter-in-place order, the following modified services will be provided to support ongoing operations countywide:

 

  • Issuing payroll (direct deposit & paper checks)
  • Processing Accounts Payable

As we work to increase efficiency by equipping more staff to work remotely, we intend to increase our modified services to include:

  • Processing Budget requests

Thank you for your patience as we adjust to this unprecedented situation.
