Finance director outlines department role, priorities and staff
Summary
A finance department representative described the department's responsibilities—budget monitoring, bill payment, revenue collection, audits and transparency—and introduced staff members Mary Nelson, Mary Green and Cody Durham as part of an orientation for council.
The finance representative told the council the department helps manage the city's financial resources and provides information to support council and administration decisions. "Our job is primarily to help the city manage its financial resources responsibly," the Finance Director said, and emphasized accountability, internal controls and compliance with state and federal requirements.
The director named staff who support operations—Mary Nelson (senior accountant), Mary Green (accounts receivable analyst) and Cody Durham (accounts payable analyst and data transparency person)—and invited council members to direct questions to the department. The presentation was framed as an overview rather than a numerical budget report.
