The City Auditor, appointed by the mayor with council approval, seeks to make Ashley's City government better and more accountable, by helping to ensure that our local government is efficient, effective, and ethical.

Jolene oversees the Municipal Code as well as the financial records of the City. She has computerized all utilities, along with every account the City has. This year's tasks include updating the Municipal Code and computerizing all fixed assets to be GASB 34 compliant.

Jolene provides monthly reports and briefings to the City Council, who along with the public, needs timely, objective, accurate information about what departments and programs are doing and how they could do it better. By providing this information, we help to hold the government accountable in its stewardship of the public trust, and assist the City Council and city staff in using resources to maximize effectiveness and productivity.
