MISSION

The City Controller, an independently elected citywide official, is the taxpayers' watchdog and the City's chief auditor and accountant. The Controller's job is to investigate and publicly report problems with city departments, increase governmental efficiency and save taxpayer money by improving operations, conduct financial and performance audits of all city departments, offices and programs, monitor and report on all matters relating to the City's fiscal health, keep the City's official financial records, and supervise all expenditures of city funds, including payroll. This website contains links to more information about my office and the vital functions it performs on your behalf.

As City Controller, I place tremendous value in working closely with Los Angeles residents and businesses to improve city government and services. I welcome and encourage your feedback and ideas. Please email me with your concerns, questions or suggestions, and I hope you will also sign up to receive regular email updates.

Thank you again for visiting the City Controller's website. Working together, we will make every taxpayer dollar count!
