Travis Central Appraisal District Receives Recognition for Transparency Efforts in Public Pensions
Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar announced the Travis Central Appraisal District is the latest local government entity to achieve a Transparency Star in recognition of excellence in Public Pensions.
Transparency Stars recognizes local government entities that provide easy online access to important financial data. The Comptroller’s office launched the Transparency Stars program in March 2016 to recognize cities, counties and school districts making important strides to greater government transparency.
Local government entities can apply for stars in the areas of:
- Traditional Finances
- Contracts and Procurement
- Economic Development
- Public Pensions
- Debt Obligations
- Open Government and Compliance
“The Travis Central Appraisal District has shown a continued commitment to providing taxpayers with a clear and meaningful analysis of its financial data. This effort achieves the goals set by my office’s Transparency Stars program,” Hegar said. “I am pleased to recognize TCAD for going above and beyond in its transparency efforts and being awarded for receiving the Public Pensions Transparency Star.”
