What’s in it

This bill requires the auditor of state to annually update a list of best practices for maximizing the efficient use of public funds with innovative, practical, and common sense items not requiring legislative action. Additionally, the bill requires the auditor to distribute the recommendations to public entities, request that the public entities report to the auditor concerning the recommendations, and prepare an annual report that includes and analyzes the reports received from public entities.
