Certificate ofAchievenient <br />The Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) <br />awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the <br />County of Hawaii for its Comprehensive Annual Financial Report for the fiscal year <br />ended June 30, 2015. This was the twenty-eighth consecutive year that the government <br />has received this prestigious award. In order to be awarded a Certificate of Achievement, <br />a government must publish an easily readable and efficiently organized comprehensive <br />annual financial report. This report must satisfy both generally accepted accounting <br />principles and applicable legal requirements. <br />A Certificate of Achievement is valid for a period of one year only. We believe our <br />current Comprehensive Annual Financial Report continues to meet the Certificate of <br />Achievement Program's requirements, and we are submitting it to the GFOA to <br />determine its eligibility for another certificate. <br />Acknotivtedginents <br />The preparation of this report was made possible by the efficient and dedicated services <br />of the entire staff of the Department of Finance and fiscal personnel in other departments. <br />I am grateful for their help in preparing this report. I also thank the Mayor and the <br />members of the County Council for their interest and support in assuring the continuing <br />sound financial condition of the County of Hawaii. <br />Collins Tomei <br />Director of Finance <br />i'� <br />
