Annual Financial Reports

Each year, the city prepares a annual comprehensive financial report (ACFR). The ACFR includes several reports and financial statements including the independent auditor’s report, a list of city officials, an organizational chart, basic financial statements, a schedule of investments, and a statistical section. The statistical section includes information regarding city debt, property tax, demographics, and other miscellaneous facts. For more information regarding the city’s financial statements, please contact the Commerce City Finance Office at finance@c3gov.com or call 303-289-8102.

The Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR) is a summary of financial highlights and activities that are drawn from financial statements reported in the CAFR for the fiscal year. This report presents the city's financial information in a readily accessible and easy to understand manner, designed to provide a meaningful recap of the city's year-end financial status.
