Iowa Auditor Rob Sand recently released the latest findings on Dallas County in an audit report from the previous fiscal year.

Dallas County’s revenues totaled $50,428,826 for the year that ended June 30th, 2023, a 1.8 percent decrease from the previous year. The disbursements for the same time period totaled $42,937,911, a 4.8 percent increase from the previous year. The report shows that the decreases are primarily due to a decline in property taxes and operating grants related to mental health services and capital grants revenue for trail projects. 

There were 10 findings related to the receipt and expenditure of taxpayer funds, with nine of them being repeated from the previous year. The report is available on the Auditor of the State’s website.
