Audit finds St. Louis' Economic Development Office needs improved financial processes

The City of St. Louis’ Community and Economic Development Offices received a rating of “good” in an audit by Missouri Democrat Auditor Nicole Galloway, but the report stated many areas need improvement.

The audit is part of an ongoing comprehensive review of the City of St. Louis. The rating is second only to a rating of “excellent” and states the “entity is well managed. The report contains few findings, and the city has indicated most or all recommendations have already been, or will be, implemented.”
