The award represents a significant achievement and reflects the village's commitment to meeting the highest principles of governmental budgeting, according to the village.

Budget documents must be rated "proficient" in all four categories, and in the 14 mandatory criteria within those categories, to receive the award — according to the village. The GFOA also presented a Certificate of Recognition for Budget Presentation to the Village's Finance Department, the village said.
