The Honorable, The Senate:
I have enclosed a copy of the State of Wisconsin's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2000. This report contains the "general purpose" or combined financial statements, and the combining financial statements for each fund type. As such, it represents a summary of all State transactions during the fiscal year.
I am please to report that the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada (GFOA) awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting to the State of Wisconsin for its fiscal year 1999 CAFR. The GFOA's Certificate is a prestigious national award recognizing conformance with the highest standards for state and local financial reports. The State of Wisconsin is again applying for the Certificate, and the 2000 CAFR has been submitted to the GFOA.
If you have specific questions regarding the CAFR's contents or comments on its usefulness, please contact me at (608) 266-3628.
Sincerely,
William J. Raftery, CPA
State Controller
