Forms and Template for Preparing an Unaudited Financial Statement
Only special districts with current revenues less than $50,000 are allowed to file unaudited financial statements provided the board votes to not have its financial statement audited and sent a letter to the property owners in the district telling them the financial statement will not be audited. The deadline for the board to approve submitting an unaudited financial statement and for sending the letters to the property owners is September 30.
