A bill for an act relating to the auditor of state by providing for efficient use of public funds reporting.
This bill requires Iowa's auditor of state to annually create and update a list of practical, innovative best practices for efficiently using public funds - without needing new laws. The auditor must share these recommendations with all public entities (like cities, schools, and counties) and ask them to report which practices they're implementing. The auditor then compiles an annual report analyzing all responses to track progress on fund efficiency across state entities. It focuses on reporting and transparency, not on changing spending rules or creating new obligations.
